Chapter 49 VIII

Not...... I hate blackouts.

--- body dividing line---

Although the time of the solar calendar has quietly entered the beginning of February in 1994, Kong Lan did not embark on a journey back to Taiwan for the New Year with Jiang Shuyue until the day of the Lunar New Year.

Before leaving, Kong Lan completed the sales of the third issue of "Anime Boy" in 94, and held a year-end meeting of the editorial department, and gave the editors who had worked hard for several months an extra red envelope according to the size of the contribution.

Yao Feila and Chen Xiang also left on this day - with their own remuneration for their hard work, they went home for the New Year and made their families believe that drawing comics could really support themselves.

Even Zheng Xusheng, who painted short stories, had more than 1,000 yuan in cash, not to mention Yao Feila, who was serialized.

Before leaving, except for Zheng Xusheng, who was still painting short stories, several others left two or three words of the original manuscript, so as not to delay or something after the Chinese New Year, and open the skylight for the magazine serialization.

After playing chess with Wang Zhenren for several months in Wufengguan, occasionally when Meng Zhe drew comics and encountered a situation where he needed to design a chess game, Chang Hao, who would only guide one or two, also returned to Shanghai.

Before leaving, Chang Hao told Meng Zhe that he was going to participate in the competition next year, so he didn't have time to help again......

Meng Zhe said that he had a smooth journey, and silently wished Chang Hao, the second eldest in ten thousand years, that his fate could change because of this experience, and under the flapping of the wings of his little butterfly, he would ascend to the throne of the international champion in advance.

As everyone left one by one, the editorial department of Tianjiao Club, which had been lively for several months, suddenly became deserted and lost its popularity. Meng Zhe couldn't stand the silence, so he ran to Jiang's house with the sketch, and used the excuse of instructing the two big loli to paint, and the fact of flirting and seducing.

Jiang Weirui was still gentle and quiet, but because of the things that happened between her and Meng Zhe, she saw Meng Zhe's unconscious little face blushing.

Jiang Xiyao is naturally still very aggressive, of course, she is very happy now, because the author's "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms" signed by the wagging tail rabbit was serialized in the third issue of "Anime Boy" that was just put on sale!

When I thought that there would be a lot of people across the country, seeing the "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms" painted by myself and my sister, and would be extremely amazed that it was good-looking, Jiang Xiyao was so excited that she hadn't slept well for two nights.

"Meng Jiji——, where do we rank on the questionnaire sent back by readers? Tell me, what's the number? ”

Therefore, as soon as she saw Meng Zhe, Jiang Xiyao ran to Meng Zhe's side, grabbed Meng Zhe's arm and shook it vigorously.

Influenced by Meng Zhe's emphasis on sending back readers' questionnaires, not only the editors of Tianjiao Club value this very much, but even Jiang Weirui and Jiang Xiyao, who have a close relationship with Meng Zhe, also feel that this survey data is very important.

"Xiao Zhe is here, is it cold? Auntie, I'm going to get you a cup ......of hot tea to warm up" At this time, Hu Caiwei came out of the kitchen with Jiang Bai with this cloth bag, and greeted Meng Zhe with a smile.

Meng Zhe naturally wouldn't trouble his future mother-in-law, he said that it was not cold, and said that he would just get it himself if he drank water or something.

So, Hu Caiwei, who had already regarded Meng Zhe as her own family, didn't continue to be polite, but asked Jiang Xiyao again: "Mei'er, don't hang on your brother Xiaozhe like a koala." Mom and Dad go out to buy something, do you and Kaoru go? ”

"No, no, no! Meng Ji's guitar hasn't told me yet, but my sister and I have ranked first in "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms"! ”

Jiang Xiyao's head is going to be a rattle, where does she have the heart to go out and buy something now?

"You girl, really...... What about Kaoru? Kaoru or not? Hu Caiwei shook her head helplessly, and then asked her eldest daughter.

"I—I'm not going to go. There are a lot of people on the street now, and I don't like it. Jiang Weirui also shook her head and said that she didn't want to go out, she was not a girl who liked to be lively, and she also wanted to know the ranking of "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms".

Since the two daughters didn't want to go, Hu Caiwei casually said a few more words like asking Jiang Xiyao to be a lady, and then went out with her husband Jiang Bai very relieved - she really didn't treat Meng Zhe as an outsider at all!

“…… Eighth. ”

Meng Zhe finally said the ranking of "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms" after the vote count of this newspaper.

"Ah——,h

This ranking obviously can't satisfy Jiang Xiyao, a girl, no...... It's to disappoint this Nizi.

is also a little disappointed, as well as Jiang Weirui, who is an older sister, although she did not speak, but the disappointed eyes proved everything.

"Two stupid girls, this ranking is already very good! If I hadn't tinkered with the "Mirror World - Three Kingdoms Warriors" in this issue, you might have been ranked seventh. Meng Zhe stretched out his hand and flicked the two big loli and one brain melon, and then continued: "Such a ranking, if it is an adult contributor, I will write a letter to invite the other party to start drawing a long-form serialized ......."

In Meng Zhe's opinion, the two little girls are not suitable for drawing long stories, because the speed of the two of them is too slow now, and there is no problem in drawing short stories.

"Huh?! Meng Jiji, you're lying, right, you can draw a long story in eighth place? ”

Although Meng Zhe was shot in the brain, Jiang Xiyao, who was covering her forehead, had no room to fight back, she wanted to find out whether Meng Zhe was comforting herself or telling the truth.

"Of the previous eight issues, none of them have been adapted into a long serialized ......"

Sister Jiang Weirui directly took out the facts and made sense, she felt that Meng Zhe must have comforted herself and her sister, how could the ninth place score be adapted into a long story, right?

"It was before, and now it is now. In the past, there were no eight works in the magazine, but now there are eight of them just for long-form serialization, so the eighth place is already very powerful! Meng Zhe replied with a smile, and then he changed the topic: "Xun'er, Mei'er, what do you think of the "Mirror World" series I set up this time?" ”

"Well...... I think it's amazing!"

Speaking of the Zongman Academy designed by Meng Zhe with the name of "Mirror World", Jiang Xiyao, the girl, immediately showed a strong interest.

"Let the protagonists of the chess soul, the dream eater, and the soft-sounding girl all live in an academy city, and sometimes when they go out to school, they will occasionally pass by on the road, which feels so interesting!" Jiang Xiyao continued, and after thinking about it, Xiao Nizi clenched her fists and said, "Also, Meng Jiji, you are so cunning!" The protagonist of "Stupid Guardian of the Three Kingdoms", which has not yet been serialized, is also stuffed into the academy city, not to mention, but it also makes a strange and interesting mirror image of the Three Kingdoms world! In this way, if you start a new serialization in the next issue, you will definitely win the first place, right? ”

"That...... Meng Zhe's next issue of Anime Boy, will he really stop serializing "Dream Eater"? ”

Jiang Weirui cares about another problem.

"Well, the next issue of Dream Eater will stop serializing, and that Quadruple Publishing House will publish a single book for Dream Eater after the New Year."

Meng Zhe nodded and replied.

Since a new serialization is going to be opened, of course Meng Zhe will choose the old serialization to stop one, and there is no problem with three serializations at the same time, but it will be a little tiring if there are four serializations.

Therefore, Meng Zhe plans to suspend the publication of "Dream Eater", which is the least popular now, for a year or two by publishing a single book, after all, there is already a previous suspension of "Go Boy" as an example, right?

In fact, Silian Publishing House originally planned to publish "Chess Soul" and "Light Girl", but Meng Zhe did not agree - the single book of these two works, Tianjiao Society itself is already preparing, so it is not guilty of letting Silian Publishing House make money anymore, and the publication of "Dream Eater" to Silian Publishing House is just to maintain the relationship between the two parties.
