Chapter 66: Are You a Cartoonist?
"Isn't this too heavy, it usually takes us more than 2 hours to complete the homework, and if we add 20 modeling drawings and essays, we may not be able to sleep before 12 o'clock every night." At this time, a male classmate stood up and protested: "Yes, yes, we can't just draw and not study, otherwise my grades will drop, and my parents will not let me go." With someone taking the lead, some of the other new members also protested.
Xiang Junfei stared at the boy who took the lead in protesting, remembering that the other party's name was Li Cheng, a junior high school student. Students in the third year of junior high school are facing the high school entrance examination, and the study pressure is relatively high, and it is common sense for them to feel that they are not running out of time, but Xiang Junfei has no intention of reducing the amount of homework because of the other party's identity as a candidate. Xiang Junfei didn't answer, picked up a piece of chalk on the podium, and drew on the blackboard, the audience was a little confused, just looked at Xiang Junfei painting blankly, in less than two minutes of the world, Xiang Junfei drew a picture of a student, patting the desk with both hands, with a questioning expression, facing the cartoon in front of him. The student painted by Xiang Junfei looked at Li Cheng just now in terms of appearance and expression, and the students couldn't help but smack their tongues after seeing it. They asked themselves, they might be able to draw the painting that Xiang Junfei painted, but the time spent was definitely a multiple of the time spent by Xiang Junfei, not to mention that when Xiang Junfei painted this painting, he didn't look at Li Cheng at all, but he was able to draw Li Cheng's appearance and posture with memory, this kind of painting level is beyond the reach of these people in any way.
"For a cartoonist, it's essential to be able to instantly remember and draw the human body you want to draw, but if you can't even master this skill, you don't want to be a cartoonist. If any of you can pat your chest and promise that you can draw such a picture in two minutes, then you don't have to practice human body modeling, can any of you do it? Xiang Junfei looked around, and no new member dared to look at him, and it could be seen that everyone was weak and asked themselves to reach Xiang Junfei's level.
"Since no one can reach it, then this job must be done. In fact, as you can see, the time I spent on this drawing was only 2 minutes, and I believe that with your ability, the time spent on 20 drawings is at most one and a half hours, and if you spend half an hour writing essays, you will only spend two hours a day on the comics, as long as you can squeeze in the time spent on playing, it will not delay your study time. So hopefully each of you will be able to complete your homework on time every day. Rest assured that your homework will be checked and guided by me or Chen Jia and Wu Lili, and after a few months, please believe me, you will find that your hard work has not been in vain. ”
After that, Xiang Junfei also said some creative precautions to the new members, and then sent these people home, after all, now it is different from the past, the number of people in the sharing club is more than 4 people, and most of the members are not students in the first (7) class of junior high school, now 14 people get together in another class classroom to draw cartoons is indeed not a thing, Wang Dehua, who was already very unhappy with himself, can justifiably scold him for occupying the classroom after seeing it, anyway, at this stage, these new members are just laying the foundation, Painting alone at home is more concentrated.
"It seems that in the future, we will have to rent a special club room outside, otherwise so many people will not even find a place to paint." On the way home, Xiang Junfei carefully calculated in his heart about renting a house as an activity room, for him now, the rent fee is simply negligible, as long as he thinks of what excuse to make these members believe that the rent is not what he just paid at the beginning.
"Xiang Junfei, you wait." Just as Xiang Junfei was thinking of an excuse, a familiar voice came from behind him.
Before he turned back, Xiang Junfei knew that the person who stopped him was Li Jie, in his impression, Li Jie and his family were not on the same path, and he didn't know why the other party would follow him, so he turned around curiously, and waited until Li Jie stepped forward and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Li Jie twisted her hands and replied embarrassedly, "I...... I apologize for my attitude this morning, and I'm really sorry to talk to you in that tone in the morning. ”
Wow, this girl has learned to apologize for changing sex so suddenly, is the sun rising in the west today? Although Xiang Junfei thought so, he would not say this in front of the other party, waved his hand and said: "It's okay, don't take this little thing of sesame mung beans to heart." However, since you are now a new member of the sharing club, you should practice drawing manga and try to get your work published in a magazine as soon as possible. ”
"Is it possible to become a cartoonist by doing the homework you have given today?" Xiang Junfei casually said a word of encouragement, but he didn't want Li Jie to ask emotionally, he scratched his head and replied: "I can't guarantee this, as I said before, those assignments are just to help you lay a solid foundation, and you still need a long way to go if you want to become a cartoonist, just take Chen Jia and them, although there are already works serialized in magazines, but they are just on the road." ”
Speaking of which, Xiang Junfei also noticed that Li Jie, who was gradually depressed, found that he had overspoken, although everything he said was the truth, but for a newcomer who had just learned comics, what he needed most should be encouragement rather than blows, so Xiang Junfei immediately changed his words and said: "Although it is not easy to be a cartoonist, it is by no means unattainable, especially for those of you who have a good talent for painting, whether you are persistent will become an important reason for whether you can become a cartoonist." ”
Persistent? Li Jie muttered in her mouth, not knowing what she was thinking.
Just when Xiang Junfei thought that he had properly handled everything and could turn around and say goodbye, he didn't want Li Jie to suddenly have a question that was quite difficult for him to answer: "Xiang Junfei, you are so good at drawing, so have you already serialized comics in magazines like Ma Qiang?" ”
