Chapter 14: 30p

Her parents were often away from home except for lunch and dinner, and Riki disappeared all morning without being asked, so she waited for her mother to come back and cook for a relaxing lunch.

When she woke up from her bed two hours later, she saw cloudless weather, which seemed to herald the true arrival of summer. The sun was shining brightly from the window, and the hot air blowing in from the open window of the living room was obviously drier than last week, and it made people feel warmer. If it weren't for the fact that the air itself was too hot, it would be quite comfortable in winter.

However, it is the late spring and early summer, even if you stay in a small shady room, sitting quietly in front of your desk, the fan next to you is still blowing warm air, which is enough to make the pear wood who stays in the room unbearable.

He looked at the original comic manuscript placed in the corner of the table against the wall, and the thick outline made it look like dozens of sheets, but the total number of pages with the one that had just been drawn on the table was only 30 pages. After all, it's a long-form manga rather than a short-form manga, and Riki plans to draw 50 pages before making a copy of the post, which should be submitted in mid-June at the current pace......

However, the question of where to invest in it has become a problem. Dongman Publishing House, Mantianxia Publishing House, Changqiong Publishing House, Kodansha, Shueisha, Shirakusensha, Shogakukan, in short, do not consider mainland publishing houses.

Many of the rules in the mainland are so disgusting that even Riki thinks that "Fullmetal Alchemist" will be branded bloody, violent, and lustful and banned from publication. The comic environment of this book is the best, but considering the problem of having to translate it by yourself and the editor signing a contract to go abroad at his own expense.

Limu thinks it is more reliable to invest in Hong Kong and Taiwan Publishing House.

Preparing to submit, and simply writing the idea into it by the way, Riki threw himself into a new round of crazy creation.

At this time.

(I also got an email, and it's obviously a joke, just ignore the guy named BF.) )

(Okay, let's take a break.) )

……

Office of the Golden Cross Society of China

"It's so troublesome, it's busy enough to deal with letters, so I have to set up a mailbox, but fortunately there aren't many mails."

Chinese computers and the Internet are not popular, and the Golden Cross receives very few emails, and the clerks open them one by one, and then delete them one by one, and stay on the emails without the intention of transferring money for no more than two seconds.

Click! Riki's email was instantly cleared as spam.

……

Shanghai, at night, a private villa.

【…… Hope that day doesn't come] The person in front of the computer typed a few lines.

"Hehe, interesting, whether your prediction is accurate or not, I have already forwarded a few letters for you."

Click, reply, shut down, go to bed.

……

Jianghuai embankment

"Mom and Dad, come live with me, please, the flood is coming, it's spread on the Internet!"

"Nonsense, the water should rise at this time of year, and I've never seen a flood."

"Your son, I'm in the weather, don't I know? How well the embankment project is done is obvious to all, and staying here this year is waiting for death! ”

Pulling each other, the son and his parents are caught in a tug-of-war.

……

One more than a few said.

When someone receives a new email, they immediately open it and scoff at its contents; Some people only look at the email once in a few days, and those who care about it will open it and glance at it, and if it doesn't matter, they will directly fork it off; Some people forwarded and some replied, but I don't know that Limu will no longer log in to these mailboxes that have sent letters to the world; Some people knew about the dam, some predicted the weather, and some hystericals believed it.

[Did you get that strange email?] 】

Riki sent a lot of emails, and was talked about a lot in his spare time, and [strange emails] gradually became a topic.

[Which country do you think sent that email?] 】

[Chinese, American, or British, there are translations in Chinese and English on it.] 】

[I think it should be Chinese, English is easy for everyone to learn, but Chinese is difficult to learn, and the difficulty level of translating Chinese into English and translating English into Chinese is very different. 】

The crowd of people receiving the email was so large that the sender became a topic of discussion. The email was not like a prophecy on a web page, but a prophecy of flooding on the Yangtze River and Huai River in China and a tsunami in New Guinea in Africa.

The sender seemed certain that his prophecy would come true.

And the person concerned, Riki, is actually very sure that it will happen, and hopes to attract everyone's attention to save this disaster, so he didn't flinch and sent only one or two messages waiting for others to find out.

He has done his best to get to this point, and he doesn't plan to have any more entanglements with this matter, but instead concentrates on drawing comics and doing tasks. The "Ultimate Painter" system says that the regular tasks will be updated every day, and the rewards are all skill use gold, but Riki didn't turn on the active skill due to a judgment error, and now he can only look at the full start gold and sigh at not knowing how to use it.

On June 20, 1998, he drew 60 pages of 30 pages of comics. Together, there are two words, namely "Two Alchemists" and "The Price of Life".

As always, he came to Riverside Road, and found the only copy shop in the area, which had a giant photocopier that was too old for him to find unreliable—in fact it worked much better than the semi-automatic copiers that came later. 3 more copies, plus the cost of domestic express mail, the pocket money is officially gone......

Riki thought this as she walked into the copy room with the manuscript in her arms.

"Is the little brother coming to make copies again, how many will you print this time?" The uncle in the store asked.

"Print three copies at 30p as usual, boss, can't you be cheaper? No matter how you look at me, I'm a promising cartoonist. Riki knew exactly how to bargain with the client, but he didn't think he had to care about the money right now - even though he was short of money.

"It's a good drawing, but we're going to eat too." The owner of the copy shop also has his own arguments.

"Okay, okay, just remember to help me keep it a secret." Riki said with a wave of his hand.

Anyway, after signing the contract, I will send the original manuscript directly to the publisher to copy it myself, or I will buy a computer and a photocopier after taking the manuscript fee, and it will be too troublesome to make copies out of it.

Due to some discrepancies in the plan, the original 50 pages were delayed to 60 pages, and the mid-term submission was delayed by him to mid-to-late June. Next week is the final exam, even if what he learns in the second grade is as easy as eating and drinking water for him. However, adhering to the doubt that there will always be one or two pit questions in the exam questions in later generations, Limu always felt that he had to take the exam seriously.

――You must get two hundred in the final exam, and my mother seems to have been moved recently, so it shouldn't be difficult for her to help with the procedures for skipping grades.

-- It's a big deal to go to the hospital and get the child intelligence scale and ask the doctor to say something like, "Your child is too smart to go to elementary school."

In fact, it is not uncommon for children to skip grades and go to college at the age of 12, initially in 2012, the United States also reported very surprisingly that "American parents make 10 prodigies and 6 children have gone to college before the age of 12". The article said that their eldest daughter became a spaceship designer after graduating at the age of 22, and it is estimated that their eldest daughter will go to college at the age of 12 four years later.

The news is about Mona Lisa and Jeep Harding in Montgomery, Alabama, USA, who have 10 children together. The couple has average grades in school, and their jobs are nurses and soldiers, and they are not outstanding in terms of intelligence. Obviously, their children are useless even if they inherit their intelligence, and it is amazing that they have raised all 10 of these children to become prodigies!

The eldest six children all went to university before the age of 12, while the youngest four were also very smart and went to university at the age of 12 in the following years. Subsequently, Mona Lisa wrote a new book called "Going to College Before the Age of 12", revealing how she and her husband taught their children.

As the cause of human education continues to develop, Riki believes that if he can live to be forty or fifty years old, there will be many students who will go to college at the age of 12 after that.

Limu felt that going to the sixth grade at the age of 9 was nothing, just to get a primary school diploma, after all, China's "certificate system" is quite strict. If you can't get a CET-4 certificate in college, you won't be able to graduate, and as a result, you haven't used English a few times at all in the ten years since graduation, but learning English is quite beneficial to computer programming. For example, foreign programming technology is generally two years faster than that in China, if you want to be advanced in China, it is best to go to the official website of foreign Apache to see the English materials of technology updates.

But Riki doesn't care about any network programming right now.

――Submissions, exams, and grade skipping!

These are the three things that are haunting Riki's mind right now.
