"Twelve-year-old genius boy Eiji Amano?" Lin Tianyi asked. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"That's right, the weekly Shonen Running has been serialized, and the next issue will be serialized in the July award-winning "Dark Crow", and the author of "The Dark Raven" is none other than the twelve-year-old Eiji Amano." Fujimoto Yukimura said one by one.
"Weekly Junior Running? July Rewards? What the hell is this? Lin Tianyi didn't know why, Weekly Boy Running had never heard of it before he crossed over, let alone any July reward.
"In short, Qin Yejun will come to discuss the specific matters with Mr. Lin in detail." Fujimoto Yukimura didn't know how to explain to Lin Tianyi for a while, so he had to ask Qin Ye to explain the matter to Lin Tianyi after he went back.
At night, as soon as Lin Tianyi entered the door, he saw Qin Ye sitting in the living room frowning and not knowing what he was thinking.
"Tianyi, you're back." Qin Ye saw Lin Tianyi and asked.
Lin Tianyi nodded.
"Uncle Qin, what's wrong?"
Qin Ye didn't speak, just handed the magazine on the table to Lin Tianyi.
Weekly Shonen Running, which reads "Good news!" in large letters! Talented manga artist Eiji Amano, "Dark Crow" will be serialized next week. ”
Lin Tianyi took the magazine and looked at it carefully. I can't help but sigh, sure enough, there are geniuses in the world, no matter what world they are in. Is Eiji Amano really only twelve years old?
"So, Uncle Qin, are you worried that your weekly Shonen Jump will affect your sales after the comic "Dark Crow" starts to be serialized?" Lin Tianyi closed the magazine and asked.
Qin Ye shook his head; "Not only that, but there's a big problem."
"What's the big problem?"
"The editor-in-chief of the weekly Shonen Running is Taro Sakata, this guy is really hateful, I don't know what means were used, and I actually made a bet with the top management of the headquarters, and after three months, the quarterly sales will be counted, and the winning side can get the serialization rights of a writer's serialized comics from the losing side, and if the writer is not willing to serialize in the other party's magazine, then the losing side will have to use all kinds of means to block it. The editor-in-chief and I only learned about this news this morning. Qin Ye said a lot in one breath, observing the changes in Lin Tianyi's face as he spoke.
Lin Tianyi shook his head with a smile, did not speak, silently went to take a glass of water, and then drank it indifferently and took a long breath; "Looks like that guy has his eye on me, right?"
"So far, that's right. Sakata, that bastard! I must want to borrow the sky to make money from you! Qin Ye was angry, he didn't know if the upper level of the brain was pumped, and he actually made this kind of bet with the squeezer, the gambling money is not comparable at all, "Dark Crow" that won the first place in the July Award is good, but Lin Tianyi's "Slam Dunk" has a tendency to become a super classic masterpiece!
"Well, if it's just like that, Uncle Qin, you don't have to worry. And don't forget, it's about to start next month! Lin Tianyi said slowly.
"It? That's right! "Slam Dunk" will start airing next month, and the magazine's sales are sure to reach a new high! Wait, doesn't that guy Sakata understand this? How dare he make such a bet with the top brass of the headquarters at such a time? Could there be some conspiracy?! Qin Ye was even more worried.
Lin Tianyi doesn't care, no matter how strong this "Dark Crow" is, it is impossible to be successful in front of "Slam Dunk", which has produced animated works! Boutique comics plus boutique animations equals an explosion in sales! This is the unchanging law of the market, even if there are any unsavory small means, in the face of absolute strength is just a joke.
"Well, don't worry. Speaking of which, I'd love to see a bit of competition, but after all, it's a bit boring without competition. "Lin Tianyi's face I am so lonely, so lonely, why am I so strong, Qin Ye couldn't help but laugh, and said with a smile;" Okay, Tianyi, you have the best confidence, although it's not good to ask like this, but let's just ask, Tianyi, is there any explosion in the recent comic plot? ”
"Breaking point? Of course there is. And it's a lot of explosions. Lin Tianyi estimated in his heart that this eighth volume was almost coming out, and the first breaking point of this comic was there!
"Let's not talk about the explosion point first, since that guy from Sakata wants to play, then I'll play with him, squeezer, right? Interesting. The corners of Lin Tianyi's mouth tugged slightly, and his tone was full of disdain.
"Uncle Qin, you can help me take a leave of absence at school tomorrow morning, and by the way, give me an appointment with Director Nishizawa, saying that I have something to hand over to him, and in the afternoon, contact the head of Shueisha's publishing department, I have a question about the publication of "Slam Dunk" that needs to be discussed with him." Lin Tianyi thought about it and arranged all the time for tomorrow.
Want to play? Interesting, you want me to be a cash cow for you? It depends on whether you can shake the waist of your bucket. It is impossible for Lin Tianyi to be a cash cow for anyone! Not to mention Taro Sakata, who looks like a pig and can't even eat when he looks at him more.
Nobutaka Nishizawa didn't know what Lin Tianyi had to do with him, but Lin Tianyi's status in the animation production team of "Slam Dunk" was really special, so he couldn't help but pay attention to him as an animation director.
"Teacher Lin, you're here." Nobutaka Nishizawa stood up and greeted.
"Director Nishizawa doesn't have to be polite, I don't have anything else to do when I contact Director Nishizawa this time, I just want to ask the OP of the animation, ED is it confirmed." Lin Tianyi asked straight to the point, and there were no twists and turns.
"Uh......" Nobutaka Nishizawa didn't expect Lin Tianyi to contact him specifically just to ask this kind of question, this kind of question can be asked clearly on the phone, why do you have to meet in person? Suppressing the temporary puzzlement in his heart, Nobutaka Nishizawa replied honestly; "The selection of OP and ED is still under consideration, and the producer's meaning can be handed over to the record company and let the record company produce it, after all, if there is no suitable one in the demo submitted, it can only be handed over to a professional company."
"In that case, let's listen to this." Lin Tianyi said, took out the CD player from his bag, put a CD in it, and then handed it to Nobutaka Nishizawa.
Nobutaka Nishizawa took the CD player, put on his headphones, closed his eyes, and began to play the opening credits of "Slam Dunk" in his head.
Drum beats, electric guitar sounds, and that slightly husky sound, a fast-paced rock song emerges. The picture switched, the rhythm changed, and the knock knocked and knocked, making Nobutaka Nishizawa shake his legs unconsciously.
Lin Tianyi just picked up the water cup and took a sip of water, when he saw Nobutaka Nishizawa starting to shake his legs, he almost burst out laughing. What the heck?! Does this Nishizawa Nobutaka also have the attribute of shaking legs! Lin Tianyi couldn't help laughing, and waited until Nobutaka Nishizawa listened to the whole song.
"How about it, Director Nishizawa, is this song okay?" Lin Tianyi asked with a smile.
Nobutaka Nishizawa nodded wildly, unable to agree anymore; "It's so suitable! It's just tailor-made for this song! Mr. Lin, who is the owner of this song? You have a good relationship with Mr. Lin, right? Otherwise, why don't you just vote for it, if you vote for it, it will definitely be adopted! ”
Lin Tianyi smiled. pointed to himself; "Owner, not in front of you?"
"Huh?" Nobutaka Nishizawa looked at Lin Tianyi in disbelief, and then looked at Qin Ye, who was silently looking at Lin Tianyi pretending to be compared, and Qin Ye nodded helplessly.
"Ahem...... I didn't expect Mr. Lin to not only draw comics well, but also be proficient in animation production, and even his music skills are so powerful, should he be said to be a genius? Nobutaka Nishizawa suddenly felt a little envious of the young man in front of him, because Lin Tianyi was too demonic. Young? Oh no! It should be young, such a young child, but he has achieved a goal that most cartoonists have worked hard for all their lives that cannot be achieved. And being able to create music that is so suitable for animation shows how outstanding Lin Tianyi's musical ability is. Sighing silently, Nobutaka Nishizawa spoke again; "In that case, Mr. Lin, this song must be used as the OP for "Slam Dunk"!"
Lin Tianyi smiled, can't you laugh? After all, he weighed his heart, but he didn't forget that there was something else.
"Please rest assured, Director Nishizawa, I'm here today for the OP and ED of "Slam Dunk", there is also an ED, there is a score and lyrics, there is only one singer missing, if you can, I hope to contact the Daikoku Moji under Being Company to sing on your behalf." Lin Tianyi gave another CD to Nobutaka Nishizawa, and Nobutaka Nishizawa hurriedly took it, as an animation director, he still has some powers, and contacting the record company to ask for an ED is just a matter of talking.
After explaining some copyright matters, Lin Tianyi and Qin Ye went directly to the publishing department of Shueisha.
After Lin Tianyi spent a lot of saliva, he finally decided on the publication matter.
When he returned home and looked at the weekly teenager Running lying on the sofa, Lin Tianyi showed a harmless smile from humans and animals. There was a rare flame in his eyes.
You're going to fight! That's the battle! If I don't beat you to a pain, you really think I'm a persimmon who is easy to pinch!
After a cold snort, Lin Tianyi returned to the piano room and continued to practice.
