Chapter Ninety-Two: Recruiting Cartoonists

The top priority now is to expand the distribution channels of comic books and increase the number of manga artists. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The number of cartoonists was put first by Heimer. Although the publishing house already has two former comic book touches, it is obviously far from enough.

Having ten cartoonists is the minimum required of a publisher by Heimer. Only when the number of cartoonists increases, will more comic books be published, thus revitalizing the entire publishing house.

It is not easy to be original, so you can only start with the 5,000-year-old heritage of China.

The four famous novels, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Journey to the West", "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Water Margin" are all classic novels that are widely popular. Besides, they have their own guidance, and you can also point out their mistakes.

"President, according to your request, I have posted a recruitment information in the county."

Ge Tong walked into the publishing house, holding a beautiful poster with a job poster about the comic house.

"Comic House Recruits Painters - Requirements: Have certain painting skills and have a certain understanding of the four famous works...... Salary interviews. 》

Within a few minutes of sitting in his office, Hammer made his first phone call.

"Are you Mr. Hammer, please?"

"Yes."

"I saw the recruitment information of your publishing house, and I want to ask specifically, I grew up reading the four famous novels, can I meet your requirements?"

"If you pass the painting skills, you can come to the interview."

"Drawing? You're not mistaken, painting has a hairy use, and it can't be eaten. When a publishing house recruits staff, it's just that they want to find someone who can make up stories, and I know ...... of these. ”

Hearing this, Hei Mo frowned, and said without waiting for him to finish: "The first requirement for our publishing house to accept people is to be able to draw, unfortunately, you don't meet the requirements." ”

'Smack! With that, Heimo hung up the phone.

In this world, there are everything, and suitable employees are not so easy to find, especially this kind of unqualified, which can only make Hei Mo smile bitterly.

"Well, drawing, I studied it for a few days when I was in elementary school."

“……。”

Hang up one more.

"Oh, drawing, I'm not too young, there's that stuff there. What's the use of drawing? It's not all for kids. ”

“……。”

Hang up another one.

After dozens of minutes passed, a lot of calls came one after another, but none of them met the requirements, and they were all in vain.

But just as Hei Mo was about to end today's recruitment, a special phone call came.

"I'm an art teacher in a middle school, and I want to ask, what does it mean that the part-time job conditions say that the salary can be settled according to a single volume?"

As a middle school teacher, I still teach art, so I don't have to think about it, I must pass the kung fu in my hands, and I must meet my own requirements.

"Every time you draw a volume of comics, as long as it meets my requirements, I promise to acquire and distribute it, and of course, all the ownership rights belong to our publishing house."

"I see, I understand a little bit, your publishing house, what else do you want?"

Hei Mo said: "You should know about the four famous novels, right? ”

The middle school teacher said, "That's for sure, when I'm fine, I like to draw a few pictures of them." ”

"Now, you can bring a few pictures of the characters of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and come directly to the publishing house to meet me, if you can, let's talk about the next thing in detail."

Yang Xin, he is an ordinary junior high school art teacher, the salary itself is very low, and the subjects he teaches are sub-courses, and there is no extra income such as supplementary classes, so he wants to find a part-time job, and he happened to see the recruitment poster sent by Hei Mo, so he wanted to come and see.

He walked around the house twice, because of hobbies and work problems, the house is full of some mountain and river figure paintings, basically from his hands, although the level is not up to the height of the artist, but compared to others, it is much stronger, but I don't know if the Fu does not meet Heimo's requirements.

"What might you like to take?" Yang Xin was so sad that he was worried.

The publishing house didn't have any requirements, so it was said that it was related to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but there are many characters in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, so you can't just take a few photos and fool around.

Eventually, he thought of a painting, flipped it out of a large stack of papers, and left the house for publication.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the president of the publishing house, and couldn't help but smack his tongue in his heart, why was Hei Mo so young and about the same age as his students. He knew that Hammer was a student.

When Hei Mo saw him, he smiled and said, "You are Yang Xin, the junior high school art teacher?" ”

Yang Xin nodded, said a few polite words, and sat opposite: "I don't understand what your publishing house's conditions for finding people mean, can you explain it in detail?" ”

Hei Mo smiled: "You show me the painting I asked you to bring first, and I'll continue to talk." ”

Yang Xin heard this, and hurriedly took out a few neat pieces of drawing paper from his bag, because there were protective measures, there was no damage to the drawing paper at all.

"Liu, Guan, Zhang, Taoyuan's three knots, you see that the Fu does not meet your requirements."

Hei Mo took his painting and scanned it, and suddenly said, "Very good, you painted it very well." But ......"

"But what's wrong?" Yang asked suspiciously.

Hei Mo smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I mean that your painting is too good, or too delicate, and it doesn't meet my requirements." ”

It was the first time that Yang Xin had heard that someone disliked painting that was too delicate, and he couldn't help but wonder.

Whether a comic is good or not has a lot to do with the plot and people, but it is not a color painting or oil painting in the traditional sense, and it does not need to be particularly exquisite. Otherwise, it will be time-consuming and laborious, and it will not reflect some unique scenes.

"You have to remember that art is dead, comics are alive."

"Comics are alive?"

"That's right! Just like TV dramas, comics are a series of plots combined into a single form of painting, as for the traditional Chinese sense of a single frame, although it is also very delicate and charming, it does not have the essence of comics. ”

After listening to Hei Mo's speech, I don't know how to get it, Yang Xin suddenly became interested in it, how many years he has been engaged in art, and it is the first time he has heard someone say this. It's a wonderful feeling, it turns out to be a painting, and it can be painted like this.

After a period of discussion, Heimer handed over the responsibility of painting the first episode of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms to him.

"Zhao Yun, you can draw him as the reincarnation of a white dragon."

"Zhang Fei, he doesn't have a daughter-in-law in the wild history, Xiahou Juan, that is, Xiahou Yuan's daughter-in-law, you can let her appear more often."

"In short, when you are painting, you should think about it more, and if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me at any time."
