Chapter 272 0272, Exploding Clothes

"This painting is too erotic. It makes my blood boil..."

"Stop the car! This is not the car for the kindergarten! Let me out quickly!"

"Is this porridge? Why do I feel like it's an aphrodisiac?"

"I climaxed after drinking a bowl of porridge. It's too exaggerated, but I like it. ()"

"Why aren't there any complete pictures of the clothes being torn off? Do I look like someone who needs that little bit of money?"

……

The last scene of the first episode of "The Cooking Master Boy" is a close-up of Qiulan, the elder's granddaughter, feeling "extremely comfortable" after drinking the porridge made by the chef Liu Maoxing.

This kind of half-revealed and half-hidden is the most tempting, making people fantasize after seeing it.

“The last cartoon’s reaction to eating delicious food is obviously exaggerated and shameful, but when combined with the previous picture of 'porridge', it is immediately understandable that this exaggerated expression of the ecstasy after eating delicious food, as well as the detailed depiction of the texture and cooking method of the food, is not it trying to express the rendering power of delicious food.”

"The plot is too simple, the cooking method is too fantasy, the eating behavior is too exaggerated, and there is even suspicion of selling sex, but I just like it. From the perspective of excitement, it is definitely a top-notch comic."

"This is a really wild idea. Food that doesn't glow, food that doesn't make you climax, is not good food. Although it's out of touch with reality, isn't this the charm of comics? Close to reality, yet beyond reality. If cooking, eating, and feeling are all based on reality, then you might as well go watch a food documentary."

“The villain taunts → the protagonist cooks an ordinary dish → everyone is not optimistic → everyone is shocked after eating it. It seems like a very common routine of the protagonist getting slapped in the face, but under the exquisite and beautiful comics, people can't feel disgusted at all, especially when every dish that appears in it is painted with color, fragrance and taste. Just looking at it makes you salivate!”

“It’s a very smart move to link food with competition, the storyboards look cool, the storyline is complex but coherent, the heroine is very dynamic, the villains have different personalities, and using ‘magic’ to cook makes some settings feel inexplicable and a bit mind-boggling, but overall, it’s still very good to watch.”

……

Compared with netizens who make serious analysis, Yunfeng’s fans are more direct.

“I just want to know if there is any overpaid content?”

"Awesome! Has Yunfeng unlocked the seal?"

"I've said so much, they are all LSPs, those who understand will understand."

"I'm asking for a friend, is there a recipe for this 'porridge'?"

"Today I saw what 'a beauty to behold' means, ()!"

……

If we say that the two comics "Feng Yun" and "Slam Dunk" have more plot than pictures, then the comic "The Cooking Master Boy" has more pictures than plot.

It is very exaggerated and outrageous, but when presented in cartoons, it seems so reasonable.

You might say, there is no such thing as delicious food.

However, if you analyze it carefully, dishes like "Magic Mapo Tofu", "Golden Fried Rice", "Porridge", etc., in addition to glowing and climaxing, the color, aroma and taste can all be made.

Moreover, the comics do not just briefly mention the cooking methods of each dish, but explain each step in a professional and detailed manner.

In fact, this exaggerated expression method is a bit nonsensical.

It’s just that, because of the establishment of the Blue Star Village Alliance on Blue Star and the beginning of a new century, no nonsensical culture has emerged.

Therefore, people who encounter this kind of exaggerated expression for the first time may find it novel, fun, boring, embarrassing, or subversive...

No matter what kind of new thing emerges, whether it becomes popular or fades away, it takes a process.

Industry insiders conducted a more in-depth analysis.

The comic writer [Three-eyed Flying Fish] from Manga DreamWorks said: "Everyone is talking about how Cooking Master Boy created a new comic genre, but in my opinion, it is just a version of The Storm Riders dressed up as a 'food' comic."

"1. They all set up strong backgrounds for the protagonists. The young chef Liu Maoxing is the son of Liu Maliu, a famous chef in the Qing Dynasty, and Chen Bangling. Bu Jingyun is the son of Huo Butian, who is well-known in the martial arts world for his Huo family swordsmanship. Nie Feng is the son of Nie Renwang, one of the two legendary masters in the martial arts world."

"2. Both have competitions centered around the protagonist, except that 'martial arts' is replaced by 'food', and 'fighting' is replaced by 'cooking'."

"3. It's all about pretending to be awesome and getting slapped in the face to level up. Every time the protagonist reaches a higher level, a stronger boss will appear."

……

This analysis of [Three-eyed Flying Fish] can neither be said to be right nor wrong.

If we look beyond appearances and into the essence, the vast majority of comics, regardless of their category or subject matter, are actually inseparable from the “upgrading of pretending to be cool and then getting slapped in the face”.

Take Slam Dunk for example.

Sakuragi went from a basketball layman to a basketball rookie to a basketball master. Isn’t that what is called an “upgrade”?

In this process, whether it was opponents, teammates, or the audience, they all witnessed Sakuragi's transformation from a novice to a strong player, which was also equivalent to a slap in the face.

There is no need to talk about the remaining one, “pretending to be cool”. Isn’t Sakuragi pretentious enough?

But... we cannot just analyze based on one or two points and then say that so-and-so is so-and-so in a certain guise.

It is necessary to make a comprehensive comparison based on the six major elements: "style of painting", "storyboard", "subject matter", "character setting", "plot" and "meaning".

Everyone has different preferences and tastes in comics. Some people like sweet and greasy dog ​​food comics, some like passionate boys' comics, and some like chilling horror comics. Therefore, everyone's evaluation of a new comic is also different.

But no matter what, there are actually only two evaluations: "good" and "bad".

At present, judging from the fact that the comic "The Cooking Master Boy" has sold over 3 million copies both online and offline within 24 hours of its release, as well as over 200,000 barrages and 100,000 comments, the evaluation given by everyone is positive.

Of course, the most intuitive way is to look at the "Comic Popularity List" after the revision of the "Readers' Popularity Voting List of Various Comic Magazines" on Weiquan.

Now the ranking is based on a combination of data such as voting, scoring, rewards, offline and online sales, etc. There is a quarterly champion every quarter and an annual champion every year.

July is the first month of the third quarter.

At the same time, it is also the beginning of the comics rushing to the top of the charts.

Cao Mengmeng is an independent comic writer.

To be precise, he is an unknown independent comic writer who writes for love.

In five years, five comics were released, and all five failed.

In fact, she has good painting skills and the ability to write stories.

But why do you keep doing it?

In fact, I just haven’t found a type of comics that suits me, a comic subject that I am comfortable with.

After a week of seclusion, I have no inspiration at all.

I slept in today and got up at three in the afternoon. I ate something simple and picked up my phone to start checking my WeChat Moments.

Cao Mengmeng plans to scan the comic popularity list to see if she can find some inspiration.

The easiest way to find inspiration is to look at other people's work.

When I see a very creative comic, I will take the time to analyze it, and in the process, I will learn a lot of new things. This is a good start.

"Wow, who is so awesome that he surpassed "Slam Dunk: National Tournament" and "Storm II"!"

Even though these two comics have been completed, their popularity has not decreased at all.

Within a week of its release, it entered the top ten of the list, and finally took the first and second places in the second quarter.

Therefore, when Cao Mengmeng saw that the first on the list was "The Cooking Master Boy", she was so surprised.

I clicked on it and took a look, and immediately burst out laughing.

It turns out that this comic is also by Yunfeng.

"As expected of my idol, he took off after just one update."

Cao Mengmeng was wondering when she could be like this.

Work hard and you will succeed one day!
After cheering herself up in her heart, she started watching Yun Feng’s “The Cooking Master Boy”.

Watch and watch.

Cao Mengmeng’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

It wasn’t that the painting was bad, but that it was too good. She seemed to have grasped something, but also seemed to have missed something, so she fell into deep thought.

The charm of food is always difficult to express through words and pictures, but this comic is very professional in the evaluation and preparation of food. It also gives a strong visual impact through the different colors of "light" emitted by each dish and the different degrees of "bursting" of the people eating the dishes, making the readers seem to really imagine how delicious the dishes are.

"gourmet food……"

"comics……"

"Burst clothes..."

……

Cao Mengmeng muttered to herself, repeating these words.

for a long time.

A gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
