Chapter 31: I Found a Treasure
"You three, come with me to the office. ”
Iida Ayano casually ordered two adult men in their thirties, and after a little hesitation, he still nominated Wang Hao to enter.
The other rookie cartoonists who failed to make the selection were all disappointed, and the two mature cartoonists were nominated, and they could agree, but the other one was obviously a high school student!
This damn world really needs good looks......
Although they thought so in their hearts, everyone did not express their thoughts, so they had to sigh and leave.
Wang Hao and the other two cartoonists followed Tian Ayano and walked into an office on the second floor, the other two were obviously a little uncomfortable with this environment, and their faces showed respectful looks.
Wang Hao sat on the office chair with a casual face, and this calm attitude made Iida Ayano a little appreciative.
Since the other party has such a confident attitude, he is either full of confidence in his original manuscript, or he is just a self-righteous ghost who has not left society.
Judging from Wang Hao's temperament, she prefers the former, hoping that this kid can bring her a little surprise.
"Show me your manuscripts. ”
When it comes to business, Ayano Iida's casualness just now completely disappears, and is replaced by a momentum unique to a strong woman in the workplace.
"Hay!"
The other two cartoonists, all in their thirties, respectfully agreed, took their manuscripts from their briefcases, bent over and handed them over.
This scene made Wang Hao a little speechless, but he didn't say anything, and took out the original manuscript from his bag, put it at the bottom, and then sat on the chair casually.
Seeing this, Iida Ayano only frowned slightly, and began to pick up the original manuscript in his hand and look at it carefully.
People who can become editors-in-chief often have a pair of sharp eyes and a more long-term vision, and can even see the future potential from the beginning of the comic.
As an editor-in-chief at Shueisha, a long-term vision is essential.
Iida Ayano was very careful when she reviewed the manuscript, but every time she turned a page, the reviewed manga artist had a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, and when Iida Ayano reviewed his five-page manuscript and threw it on his desk, his worst fears happened.
"Please take your manuscript, it's none of your business here. ”
"Can you tell me why?"
The cartoonist was unwilling to hold the original manuscript, and did not leave in a hurry, so long efforts were negated by a sentence, how could he leave in such a discouraged manner, how could it be repaired!!
"That's what you want. Iida Ayano smiled slightly, this smile was particularly piercing in his eyes, and then he heard Iida Ayano's evaluation in his ears, "You should be a newcomer, right?"
It's not up to par in terms of the most basic storyboard, and you don't understand what you're trying to say.
There is also the development of the plot that deviates from the theme from the third page, and the style of the fifth page is obviously different, and your comic has already failed with these. ”
In just a few words, Ayano Iida made the manga artist ashamed and embarrassed, and he spit out a thank you from his mouth with difficulty, and left the office with a bent figure.
His departure made another cartoonist nervous, anxious and anxious as he waited for the result.
After a long time, Iida Ayano put down another manuscript and tapped lightly on the table with her left hand.
"Your storyboarding technique isn't quite right, it's a little bit better than the last one.
From the perspective of the protagonist's character formation, why did he change his personality three times in just one sentence?
Probably you want to produce a different kind of protagonist, but that's why you fail, because you don't have that much control.
The hierarchical structure of the story is confusing, and why the heroine dies on page three, is resurrected on page seventeen, and dies again on page twenty-five, this is not some supernatural thriller comic!"
"Thank you. ”
The cartoonist who said this was as if he had collapsed, and finally realized the feeling of the person who had just left, and he also left the office in failure.
The departure of the two did not affect Wang Hao in the slightest, but the beautiful editor-in-chief looked tough and left no room for it, but he kindly reminded the shortcomings of the two rookie cartoonists.
But these problems will not happen to Dragon Ball at all, this phenomenal manga has attracted the expectations of countless people from the beginning, and it is because of this that there will be ups and downs later.
[A long, long time ago, in a deep mountain thousands of kilometers away from the city, this whimsical story began...... ]
The opening of Dragon Ball attracts Ayano Iida's attention, and he sees a young man with a long tail rolling a wooden wheel and carrying a large saw knife, greeting the animals around him.
The style of art looks unique, but it doesn't make people feel uncomfortable.
Turning the second page with curiosity, the young man with the long tail threw the wooden wheel bigger than his body into the sky, and suddenly kicked it apart, which made people feel even more admirable.
The boy went out hunting, caught a big monster fish with his tail in the stream under the cliff, and was suddenly hit by a car on the way home, and the hero and heroine met and had a bad fight......
The more I looked down, the more surprised Iida Ayano became, the idea of this manga was like a wild imagination, combining a strong technological style and retro meaning, as if entering a new world.
[Legend has it that he was able to collect seven dragon balls and recite a spell...... ]
[The dragon will appear and can help people fulfill any wish, but only one wish can be granted at a time!]
The sudden increase in mythological color did not break the original style, but added a lot of charm to this comic.
After slowly savoring Dragon Ball, Ayano Iida couldn't believe that this was the work of a rookie manga artist, whether it was in terms of storyboarding techniques or other aspects, she couldn't find anything that could be changed.
What is the responsibility of a comic editor? It is to identify deficiencies in the cartoonist's work and point out and correct them.
The content of the story is very interesting, the boy named Monkey King gives people a lively and mischievous feeling, and the cartoonist's idea is even more imaginative, perfectly controlling several elements together.
From her point of view, this is definitely a comic with unlimited potential, as long as the plot in the back does not affect it, it will definitely become a hit.
Most importantly, this manga is too much in line with Shueisha's requirements, coupled with the difficulties it has faced recently......
Iida Ayano solemnly packed up the original manuscript and looked at Wang Hao deeply, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have thought that this sixteen or seventeen-year-old sunny boy would have such a powerful talent.
Unconsciously, Wang Hao's status in her heart has increased sharply, and this time she has picked up a treasure!
