Chapter 156: Finish the novel first
Different from the highest sigh for the quality of comics, Qiu Ren on the side was more concerned about the original manuscript of the novel starting from scratch, and at this time he was holding the original manuscript full of typos, the original manuscript written by Wang Xiu's half-baked Japanese level. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wang Xiu was already learning Japanese at the beginning of the chess soul world, and he had a systematic universal translation ability, so that it was easy for him to learn Japanese 'speaking', and it would be almost the same in a few months, but in terms of 'writing' in Japanese, even if he counted the experience of the two worlds for several years, Wang Xiu's Japanese level was basically about the same as that of Japanese elementary school students.
WANG XIU HAS ALWAYS BEEN VERY LOW IN TERMS OF LANGUAGE LEARNING, JUST AS HIS ENGLISH GRADES IN MIDDLE SCHOOL WERE ALWAYS HOVERING ON THE PASSING LINE, NOT THAT HE WAS REALLY STUPID, IT WAS PURELY A KIND OF 'OBVIOUSLY I HAVE LEARNED THE MOST DIFFICULT CHINESE LANGUAGE IN THE WORLD, WHY SHOULD I LEARN OTHER SIMPLE LANGUAGES?...... Anyway, I have a systematic universal translation, and I can learn to speak and write, so why should I learn to write?' This lazy mentality that is not at all in tune made him always fish for three days and dry his nets for two days when he was learning Japanese.
Finally, when he traveled to the world of Dream Eaters and began to create comics, he tasted the bitter fruit...... His spoken Japanese is absolutely fine, with a pure Tokyo accent, but in Japanese it is miserable.
When Luo Xiaohei was drawn, when Gao and Qiuren watched the lines, they were also 'amazed' by Wang Xiu's Japanese level!
"I've never seen so many typos in Japanese...... It's not even as good as a primary school student!" I remember that Akito mocked like this at that time.
Therefore, the lines on the comic manuscript all the time were written by Wang Xiu at the request of Qiu Ren, dictated by himself, and copied by Qiu Ren.
"Hey, Wang Xiu, what does this mean? What is a low, cold and pleasant woman's voice?" Qiu Ren pointed out another typo, it should be low and cold.
"Hah...... Sorry, the low was written as a slump...... Autumn people, help me change it. ”
"I can't help you, I speak Japanese so well, why is my Japanese so bad...... Wang Xiu, I don't mean that you should ask the Japanese teacher to make up for the lessons. ”
"Hey...... I want to, too, but I don't have any money, and the extra money I earn just by playing Go is barely enough for me to eat and drink, and I'm not a professional chess player after all...... Fortunately, you don't charge me for accommodation, which is a blessing in misfortune. ”
"Wang Xiu is too polite, and we didn't pay you for the assistant. It's just about helping each other, and we're all men who aspire to be professional cartoonists......"
"Can you not add the phrase 'man' at the back, just like One Piece, the first time I heard this line, I thought Luffy was going to become the male favorite of One Piece...... It's so dirty!"
"It's a translation problem! Obviously, this sentence is very MAN, why is it so dirty in your mouth. ”
"Hahahaha......"
"Actually, if you start from scratch, if you publish it, the royalties alone are estimated to be a lot of money! Wang Xiu, in this way, I suggest you concentrate on completing the original draft of the novel first, and then draw the comics......
"No, draw a comic first, comics! Autumn people, such a good comic, hurry up and draw it. Obviously, the highest has already entered the pit, and I can't wait for Wang Xiu to draw ten words a day for him to see.
"Then you can read novels, the charm of novels is better than comics...... "Autumn people are the original work.,Naturally, more than the highest original painting.,I'm more addicted to the charm of novels.。
"Hey, Akito, do you want to be a manga artist?!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... However, I still recommend that Wang Xiu finish the novel first and submit it to the publishing house, so that the comics will be updated slowly and synchronously, and in this case, the results will be very good. ”
"Comics are updated once a week, and the cycle is too long, but novels are different, and you can complete a volume of hundreds of thousands of words in a month. ”
"This ......" squeaked at the top, and had to admit that Akito was right, even if he wanted to see the comics behind quickly, he couldn't say it at this time.
Wang Xiu thought about it for a while, and felt reasonable, indeed, the novel version from scratch is only more than 1.2 million words, seven or eight volumes, Wang Xiu is still a copyist, and he can write one volume in a week, if the novel can be published first, and then caricature, it is absolutely no problem.
Moreover, starting from scratch was originally a novel, then a comic, and then an animation......
Two weeks later, Wang Xiu completed a two-volume novel from scratch, of course, the kind of original novel that had not yet been 'corrected and transcribed' by the Autumn People.
But recently, Qiuren has been looking for new comics every day, watching piles of detective comics, DVDs, novels, and going to school during the day, so he has no time to help Wang Xiu revise the draft.
Qiu Ren gave Wang Xiu an idea.
"I remember that there was an agency near the station, and I remember that there was a foreign translator job, Wang Xiu, you can find a Chinese fellow who is proficient in Japanese there to help you do it"
"Oh, reasonable, reasonable, there are many Chinese living in Japan. Wang Xiu accepted the suggestion.
Wang Xiu found the intermediary firm and made a request.
“…… Hi! Hi! Guests we know your requirements, proficient in Japanese, preferably Chinese, okay, we have a lot of such people, hi! The price is no problem, 150 thousand words, don't worry, you go slowly!"
The next day, a lanky man in uniform and glasses, with a somewhat blank look like dead fish eyes, found the place and rang the doorbell.
As soon as Wang Xiu opened the door, he heard a somewhat stiff Chinese-Japanese accent: "Hello! I am Zhang Shan, a second-level translator of Ichijo Lang's office. ”
Wang Xiu looked at him slightly, because the uniform on his body was clearly marked by the Blue God Express Company.
"Hey, courier?"
"Guest, courier job is my part-time job. ”
"Hmm...... Oh, please come in, please come in, Zhang Shan is, I'm Wang Xiu, both are Chinese, or speak Chinese. Wang Xiu invited him into the room with a polite smile.
When Zhang Shan heard the familiar Chinese, he immediately felt a sense of kindness, and the deep tiredness and numbness in his eyes were reduced a lot.
"Hey, no, yes, yes...... I'm really sorry, but I've been in Japan for a long time, and I don't seem to be able to speak Chinese very well. Zhang Shan sighed deeply and said with a long sigh.
"Oh, I don't think you're going to be happy in Japan. Wang Xiu took over the conversation.
"Hey, it's not easy to work in Japan Chinese it's really good...... Oh, this room is very much like a cartoonist's studio, did Mr. Wang come to Japan to be a cartoonist?" Zhang Shan looked around at the shelves of comic books and figurines in the room, and said in surprise.
"I'm ashamed, I'm just an assistant to a cartoonist for the time being, and I'm living here temporarily. ”
"Oh, a cartoonist, I have similar dreams. ”
"Really, does Mr. Zhang want to be a cartoonist?"
"No, I'm not a cartoonist, but it's pretty much the same, I want to do animation and start my own animation company...... However, it is really not easy, and I don't know how long it will take to have the possibility of fulfilling this dream. ”
After a conversation, Zhang Shan began to talk about the bitterness in his heart, and the work after entering the house had not yet begun to talk, but under the intentional guidance of Wang Xiu, he first talked about his experience in Japan in the past two years.
