Eiichiro Oda originally planned to go out to collect style, but after listening to Lin Hai's "spoilers", he couldn't resist the urge to go back and continue to create immediately.

Oda jokingly asked Lin Hai, "Why don't I arrange a role for you?"

"Yes, yes!"

It wasn't Lin Hai who spoke, but Kyoko Fukada, who didn't know when she came up.

Lin Hai asked her, "What are you doing with it?"

Ignoring him, he took out a photo of Panta-Rin from his bag, and said to Eiichiro Oda expectantly, "Would you like to draw Panta-Rin into it?"

She said and pointed at Lin Hai, "We all call him Rin-Kai." ”

Oda took the photo and said to Silly Gong with a smile, "Okay!"

"I need to give him more chances. Silly Gong emphasized.

"Good!"

……

All right.

Lin Hai was actually looking forward to showing his face in "ONE-PIECE", but after Kyoko Fukada stirred it up, the plan to mix a character with a name and surname came to naught, and instead became the most appearing role in the comics.

Yes, you guessed that right, this trick is the "panda man".

……

After exchanging contact information and saying goodbye to Oda, Lin Hai walked towards Ai Yazawa.

Ai Yazawa is a Japanese manga artist and illustrator who also works in fashion design. After graduating from high school, she attended the Osaka Model School and dropped out. In 1985, he began to publish his works in the monthly magazine "RIBON-ORIGINAL", and his paintings are beautiful and full of personality, and the slender figures and fashionable and avant-garde shapes of the characters are deeply loved by young readers.

"Mr. Yazawa, I'm very sorry that I didn't greet you at the first time. Lin Hai said apologetically.

Yazawa Ai smiled and said, "I can tell you like the work of that manga artist just now. ”

"Yes. ”

"Is Rin-kun an artist?" Yazawa Ai looked at Lin Hai, amazed by his handsomeness.

"Yes. ”

Lin Hai pointed to the two girls and said, "The two of them are also artists." ”

"I've heard Hikki say that you sing beautifully. ”

"Thank you. ”

Lin Hai was not very interested in shoujo comics, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

It was around the time that Oda tasted the sweetness, and Kyoko began to make trouble again.

"Now, Mr. Yazawa, can you assign me a character in the manga?"

"Hey, you're so rude like this!" Hikaru Utada wanted to hit Kyoko again.

This time, Kyoko's reaction was faster than before, dodging Xiongguang's sneak attack, and then said dissatisfiedly: "But the teacher agreed just now!"

"You dare to talk back!"

"Woo......"

Kyoko didn't escape the clutches of Xiongguang in the end.

Looking at the two bear children who were laughing, Yasawa said to Lin Hai with a smile: "Their relationship is really good." ”

Lin Hai explained, "Kyoko often doesn't talk with her brain, so please don't mind Yazawa-sensei. ”

"Why, Kyoko-chan is cute. ”

It's cute, if she's not so off-line.

Lin Hai told Kyoko's "Past Life Theory" to Yazawa Ai, which made the other party tremble.

"Poof...... What a simple child. ”

"yes. Lin Hai smiled: "Sometimes I think that she is more likely to be a Shiba Inu in her previous life than a dolphin. ”

Hearing Lin Hai say this, Yazawa Ai felt that it was really a bit similar.

Ai Yazawa suddenly shouted at Kyoko Fukada, "Hachi!"

"Huh?" Kyoko turned to look at her and asked, "Are you calling me?"

"yes. Yazawa said with a smile.

"But why do you call it Hachi?"

"Are you stupid?" Hikaru Utada said, "Even I, who grew up abroad, know Hachiko's story." ”

Kyoko said, "I know Hachiko, but why?"

Lin Hai interjected: "Probably because Akita Inu and Shiba Inu are stupid and can't tell the difference." ”

"Poofha!" Hikaru Utada laughed.

“？？？”

Kyoko had a question mark in her head, and she couldn't understand what they were talking about at all.

……

Hachiko (ハチ公) is a dog, to be precise, the most famous dog in all of Japan.

Hachiko was born in Odate City in 1923 and is a purebred white Akita dog. Two months after birth, it was carried home by Eizaburo Ueno, a professor of agriculture at the University of Tokyo.

One person and one dog have a deep relationship. The professor leaves work late every day, and Hachiko greets his master at the exit of Shibuya Station every night.

On April 21, 1925, the professor died of a heart attack at the school. Hachiko was adopted by the professor's relatives and friends, but in his heart, his true and only owner was still Eizaburo Ueno, so he still traveled back and forth to Shibuya Station rain or shine waiting for his owner's return.

For nine years, spring has gone to winter, and the flowers have bloomed, and the only thing that has not changed is the figure of Hachiko who waits at the exit of Shibuya Station every night.

In 1933, the Asahi Shimbun published Hachiko's deeds, and his loyalty and affection for his master spread throughout Japan, and Hachiko became synonymous with "loyalty".

A year before Hachiko's death (1934), a statue was erected, and it still sits at the entrance of Shibuya Station. Every year on March 8 (the day Hachiko died), a solemn memorial ceremony is held next to the statue to pay homage to it.

This story was put on the big screen in Japan and the United States in 1987 and 2009, and was widely praised by the audience, and is a rare classic in animal genre films.

……

Yazawa Ai called Kyoko to his side, touched Kyoko's head, and said, "I promise you, in the next manga, I will draw you in." ”

Hikaru Utada was envious and said tentatively, "Mr. Yazawa ......"

"The same goes for you. ”

Yazawa Ai said: "To be precise, I want to draw a manga with the three of you as the main characters. ”

Hikaru Utada was excited and asked, "What kind of manga is it?"

"Well, it should be related to music, more details need to be considered, but ......" Yazawa Ai changed his words and said, "I decided, the names of the two of you will be 'Xiao Qi'." ”

The two of us are both called Xiaoqi?

The two girls looked at each other, both confused.

Lin Hai, who didn't take it seriously, widened his eyes at this time.

No way?!

……

The Japanese word for "seven" is pronounced "なな", and the English word is "NANA".

Speaking of which, those who have a certain understanding of comics should be able to understand why Lin Hai was surprised.

Yes, Lin Hai never expected that Kyoko and Hikaru would become the prototype of the famous shoujo manga "NANA"!

……

"NANA" is one of Ai Yazawa's masterpieces, telling the story of two young girls whose names are also pronounced as "Nana".

The two heroines in the story, Nana Komatsu and Nana Osaki, are both named NANA, but they are very different from each other in terms of personality and experience. Nana Komatsu is innocent and cute, but she was born in a greenhouse and knows nothing about the world and dreams of getting married, while Nana Osaki comes from a broken family, she has a strong personality, acts decisively, and aspires to be a punk musician.

The two met on the train and later became roommates, and although they had different personalities, they became friends at first sight......

There are a lot of elements about "seven" in this manga, such as Seven-Star (Seven Star cigarettes) and the house number of the shared apartment is 707...... Wait a minute. Interestingly, however, Nana Osaki gave Nana Komatsu the nickname "Hachi".

Well, at the point of stupidity, it's quite appropriate.

……

"And you. ”

Yazawa Ai turned to Lin Hai and said, "Rin's words are a bit awkward to read, so let's just call Ren." ”

Well, sure enough, it's the protagonist treatment.

Lin Hai knew who she was talking about as soon as she heard it.

Ren (Ren), whose full name is Ren Motojo, is the male protagonist in the manga, a man known as a genius guitarist.

Sounds pretty good, but—

This product was hung up in a car accident later!

Lin Hai carefully observed Yazawa's expression and made sure that she didn't mean to curse herself, and only hoped that she wouldn't make the plot so sadistic this time......

……

Yazawaai's train departed early, and after she left, Lin Hai noticed that the middle-aged man who had lent him his guitar had not left.

The man smiled and nodded to Lin Hai: "What a coincidence." ”

Lin Hai replied: "Yes, I really didn't expect to meet two cartoonists in one go. ”

"Not two. ”

The man pointed to himself and said, "Coincidentally, I'm also a cartoonist." ”

The man's words surprised Lin Hai, and he quickly retrieved his mind, but found nothing.

"It's rude, I take the liberty of asking, may I ask ...... you are"

"Hahaha, it doesn't have to be this way, my work is not very famous, so it's normal that you don't know me. The man asked, "Have you seen "The Idiot I" (バカイチ)?"

"I'm very sorry. Lin Hai had no impression of the cartoon that the man said.

"I've said don't take it so seriously. ”

The man didn't mind at all, laughed, and said, "I believe you can see it, I'm actually more interested in music, but my level is limited, so I can only take comics as a career." ”

The man's implication is that drawing comics is more like playing with tickets.

Lin Hai nodded and asked jokingly, "You don't plan to draw me into the comics, do you?"

"HAROLD IS A STONE, CALL ME HAROLD. As for the question you started with, I would say, Why-not?"

"Teacher Sakushi......"

"CALL ME HAROLD," THE MAN SAID, "YES, I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DRAW A MANGA ABOUT ROCK MUSIC, AND YOUR PERFORMANCE HAS INSPIRED ME A LOT, SO IF YOU DON'T OBJECT, I WANT TO DRAW YOU INTO THE COMICS, AND EVEN THE NAME OF THE COMICS I HAVE A ......"

The man pointed to the English letters on Lin Hai's T-shirt and said, "It's called 'BECK'." ”

《BECK》？

When Lin Hai heard the other party's name just now, he felt a little familiar, and now he finally remembered who the other party was.

HAROLD IS A VERY LOW-KEY AND UNPROFESSIONAL CARTOONIST.

HAROLD belongs to the typical works of red, people are not red. As for his masterpiece, it is "BECK".

"BECK", translated as "Rock New Band" in China, is a comic about youth and music, which is a rare masterpiece of the same kind of comics.

The biggest feature of this manga is realism - not in the style of painting, but in a very realistic depiction of the activities and scenes of the performance. IT IS SAID THAT DURING THE COMIC SERIES PROCESS, HAROLD USED THE EXCUSE OF COLLECTING WIND MANY TIMES TO GO TO OTHER PLACES TO WATCH PERFORMANCES, WHICH MADE HIS EDITORS CRAZY.

LISTENING TO HAROLD'S ENDLESS EXPRESSION OF HIS LOVE FOR ROCK MUSIC, LIN HAI THOUGHT TO HIMSELF, THE SUCCESS OF "BECK" REALLY HAS ITS REASONS.
