——5oo recommended to add more ~~~
As if it was colluding, several people came in almost at the same time, in addition to animation workers such as Hayao Miyazaki and Akira Toriyama, who Zhao Chen is familiar with, there are also writers such as Masaki Yamada and Sakyo Komatsu.
It's just that compared to the other three, the current Akira Toriyama may be very famous due to the hot load of "Alalei", but at this time, he is still just a novice cartoonist, and he lacks the corresponding background, so other cartoonists who arrived early will naturally feel a little unhappy.
Because of the participation in the awards, like most of the attendees, Akira Toriyama is also wearing an orthodox suit and a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, but he looks a little obscene no matter how he looks at it, just like the doctor of "Aralei".
But Zhao Chen did not focus on Akira Toriyama, Akira Toriyama's achievements in the future may be very high, but Zhao Chen also has self-knowledge, it is impossible for him to dig Akira Toriyama from Shueisha, and most of his eyes are focused on Hayao Miyazaki.
At this time, Miyazaki was still an anime worker at Zuiyou Images, and he had not yet set up his own studio, and he was also a manga artist. For Zhao Chen, it is inevitable to buy an animation club in the future, and Miyazaki is undoubtedly the best candidate.
"Hello, Hayao Miyazaki-sensei!" When Miyazaki came in, Zhao Chen came to Miyazaki with a wine glass and took the initiative to greet him.
The current Miyazaki is not even forty years old, and naturally he does not have the appearance of being pale in later generations, with a pair of black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his eyes are slightly narrowed, as if he has not woken up yet.
"Hello, may I ask who you are?"
"Mr. Miyazaki, you can call me Zhao Chen!"
"Zhao Chen? I think I've heard this name somewhere! ”
"It turns out that you are Teacher Zhao Chen!" Just when Zhao Chen's face showed embarrassment and he wanted to answer Miyazaki's question, a voice suddenly sounded behind him, Zhao Chen turned around and looked, only to see Akira Toriyama standing behind him at some point, staring at him tightly with a pair of eyes.
"If there is no other cartoonist named Zhao Chen, it should be me, what's wrong? Mr. Akira Toriyama! ”
"I just didn't expect that the cartoonist who could draw 'Lelouch the Rebellious' would be so small!"
Zhao Chen shook his head, this is another person who said his age, and couldn't help but reply: "In the comic industry, success does not depend on age!" ”
That's a good thing to say! If it's all about age, then what's the use of being a genius! ”
At this time, Miyazaki on the side obviously appreciated it, and by the way, he slightly despised Akira Toriyama, after all, Akira Toriyama himself is also a genius, because his first serialized "Aralei" won the love of many comic fans, plus the current Akira Toriyama is only 25 years old, so he is naturally a genius in the comic industry.
"I'm just a little surprised, you guys, it's not what you think! However, Zhao Chenjun is also my target to catch up now, and I hope that "Alalei" can beat Mr. Zhao Chen in terms of sales of single books! ”
"We'll see!"
Zhao Chen raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and took a sip of red wine, his face a little more dignified. It's not that he thinks he's inferior to Akira Toriyama, it's true that Shueisha's sales are several times that of Tianxiasha, and even if the quality is better at that time, it's a little difficult to get over "Aralei" in terms of single book sales.
After Akira Toriyama left, Zhao Chen began to chat with Hayao Miyazaki, and the topics of the chat were undoubtedly about anime, among which Zhao Chen even talked about some forms of comic exhibitions in later generations, which made Miyazaki Hayao begin to admire Zhao Chen's whimsy.
"Mr. Miyazaki, I will buy an animation club in a short time, I wonder if Mr. Miyazaki has any intention of joining? When the time comes, the treatment will be preferential, and you can also promise Mr. Miyazaki to set up his own studio! ”
After chatting for a long time, Zhao Chen finally said his purpose straightforwardly, his eyes were firmly fixed on Miyazaki in front of him, as long as there was a slight opportunity, he would not give up, because Miyazaki in front of him was worth his doing.
"I'm sorry! Zuiyou image is very good for me, no consideration for this for the time being! ”
Miyazaki shook his head, feeling that Zhao Chen was a little too careless, and even the animation club had not yet acquired it, how could he agree, not to mention that Zuiyou's image was far from being comparable to ordinary comic clubs, and what about the good treatment, Miyazaki didn't pay much attention to money. As for the studio, he believes that in a few years, when his strength is more recognized, he will form it himself, which is Miyazaki's idea.
"That's a shame, but if that time comes, please give me a chance, and I'm sure I won't disappoint you."
Zhao Chen was not depressed, and he was not even disappointed, Miyazaki and Anda Chong are different, they are already famous 'old men' in the animation industry, and Anda Chong can only be regarded as a newcomer now, and there is a difference of several grades between the two.
Miyazaki finally nodded, no matter whether he would give this opportunity or not, at least he took care of Zhao Chen's face, and he also had some expectations for Zhao Chen's future achievements.
Just as the two of them continued to chat, there was another louder commotion in the hall than before.
"It's Osamu Tezuka-sensei!"
"Master Tezuka!" ……
Osamu Tezuka is dressed in a crisp suit, a hood, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking quite kind, and constantly greeting people he knows.
This year, Osamu Tezuka is in his fifties, and if history has not changed, this old man, known as the god of manga, has only a few years to live, which has to make people sigh.
Osamu Tezuka has a lot of works, and the sales are also very good, and the most well-known comics for Chinese people are undoubtedly "Astro Boy" and "Three-Eyed Prodigy", because these two comics were introduced to China in the 90s, and they have a good reputation. But the most famous in the island country is undoubtedly the "Firebird" that caused death and is still unfinished.
"Firebird" is the pinnacle of Osamu Tezuka's work, and it can be called the pinnacle of Tezuka's works in terms of quality, quantity, and scale, and it is also a permanent classic in the manga works of the island country. The work absorbs a large number of myths, legends and historical facts, showing readers the different attitudes of human beings in life and death in different eras. It's just a pity that Osamu Tezuka has died of cancer before he finishes this manga.
It can be said that if Zhao Chen wants to obtain the title of the God of Comics, his influence in the island country must be far higher than that of Osamu Tezuka, because he is not from the island country, and it is undoubtedly much more difficult to obtain the title of the God of Comics.
When Osamu Tezuka entered the hall, it didn't take long for the annual Nebula Reward to finally begin.
The two emcees took the stage and finished the opening ceremony in Japanese, and then began to present the awards.
The award ceremonies of this era are relatively simple, far less complicated than those of later generations, and not too appetizing.
This year marks the 11th Nebula Awards, and the winner of the island country feature work category is Yamada Masaaki's "Jewel Thief", and the short story department is Takachi Ho Haruka's "ダーティペアの大険". Zhao Chen, the overseas long-form department, was finally defeated, "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" is just a martial arts novel in the end, and the awards for each session are basically science fiction novels, and there is almost no hope of winning awards, and the award is Arthur Charles Clarke's "Meeting with Rama"! As for overseas short works, this year's edition is none.
"Congratulations, Mr. Arthur!"
When the master of ceremonies announced that he had won the overseas feature-length department, Zhao Chen did not show loss on his face, but hugged Arthur Charles Clarke, who won the award next to him, and the two were the opponents of this Nebula Award, so they were naturally very close.
Arthur Charles Clarke is a famous British science fiction writer, and at the same time, along with Isaac Asimov and Robert Heinlein, he is known as the three major science fiction writers of the twentieth century.
"Thank you! Mr. Zhao Chen, I also hope that you can get the reward of the comics department! ”
Zhao Chen nodded, looking at the old back of Arthur Charles Clarke who came to the stage to accept the award, and there was no loss in his heart, it was fake.
"The comic department award must be mine!"
Zhao Chen secretly cheered for himself in his heart, as long as he won the comics department award, then his status in the comic industry of the island country would be elevated.
Then the Film, Performance, and Multimedia categories were awarded, with Ridley Scott's "Alien" being awarded, and the Art Department being Lai Fan Yi!
"Next up is the comics department!"
When the emcee talked about the manga department, Zhao Chen, Rumiko Takahashi, Anda Mitsutsu, Akira Toriyama and Hagio Nozomi all straightened their waists and looked at the emcee with a nervous expression, this award is very important to them.
The other people present also focused their eyes on the five people, but most of their eyes were focused on Zhao Chen, because many people knew in their hearts that Zhao Chen was the biggest favorite in this year's comic department awards, and it was overwhelming.
If it is normal, they guess that Zhao Chen will definitely be able to win the award, but unfortunately Zhao Chen is not from the island country, and he has a huge disadvantage compared to the other three in this regard, but many people also believe that the Nebula Award will not be so confused, otherwise it will be obvious discrimination.
