Chapter 138: Shogakukan Manga Awards
"President, then I'll go with you!"
"Okay, I'll deal with it when the time comes!"
When Zhao Chen and Andachong came to the door of the venue, they were stopped by the security guards at the door.
"This gentleman is not invited by the organizer and cannot go in!" Perhaps it was because he had already been explained by the organizer, the security guard at the door said after reading the invitation handed by Zhao Chen.
An Dachong stood behind Zhao Chen and didn't speak, just clenched his fists and stared at the security guard, his eyes full of anger.
"Oh, I think it was a mistake on the part of the organizers! Everyone knows that "Baseball Heroes" is a joint book written by me and Mr. Andachong, and the two of us are a whole, but why is there only my name on it, and there is no Mr. Andachong, this is the negligence of the organizers! But I still hope that the organizers will respect us cartoonists from other comic clubs, do you think I'm right? ”
Zhao Chen had thought of the possible situation before he came, and thought of various ways to deal with it, but at this time, he was stopped by the security guard, immediately refuted, and finally shouted towards the holding hall.
In addition to the staff, there are also a large number of manga artists and several comic masters who are very famous in the manga industry. After hearing Zhao Chen's voice, he couldn't help but look at the exit in surprise, and then couldn't help but discuss, and some of the cartoonists from other comic clubs expressed their dissatisfaction in their words.
"This ......" The security guard was stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while, after all, Zhao Chen had the invitation of the organizer, so he couldn't drive Zhao Chen away!
Fortunately, the response of the organizers was quite fast, and soon a manager arrived in a hurry.
"This time it is indeed the negligence of our organizers, and I hope that Mr. Andachong will not mind! The two teachers are please, as for the specific location, I will arrange it myself. ”
"That's good. I hope the organizers will not make such low-level mistakes again! Mr. Andachong, let's go in! ”
Zhao Chen didn't stalk him, because there was no need for this, and now the primary school hall was big, so it was not appropriate to completely offend. Otherwise, it will only be the Tianxia Society that will suffer.
After the two entered, they glanced up at the hall, this is the hall specially used for awards in the primary school hall, at least more than 300 square meters, Zhao Chen who looked at it was envious, and sure enough, having his own property is magnanimous.
"Teacher Zhao Chen. Mr. Andatsu! Just as Zhao Chen was looking at the hall, a voice suddenly sounded beside him, and when he turned his head, it was Rumiko Takahashi.
"Mr. Takahashi, don't come unharmed! First of all, congratulations to Mr. Takahashi, the sales of Mr. Takahashi's "Lucky Star Boy" are really hot! ”
"Where. It's not as good as Mr. Zhao Chen's "Rebellious Leluxiu"! I heard that Mr. Zhao Chen's three works have been shortlisted this time, but I should congratulate you, this is a unique thing before! ”
As Rumiko Takahashi said, the Shogakukan Manga Awards have been held for so many years, but it is really something that has never been born for the same manga artist to have three works shortlisted, and I am afraid that there will be no more in the future.
"Mr. Takahashi said with a smile, I heard that Mr. Takahashi's "Lucky Star Kid" was also shortlisted for the juvenile department!"
"I was shortlisted. But the opponent is Mr. Zhao Chen's "Rebellious Lelouxiu", I really don't know the bottom in my heart! ”
"This is not necessarily, after all, this is a comic book award held by the Elementary School Museum, and it has a great advantage for the cartoonists of your Elementary School Museum, I think "Lucky Star Boy" will win the juvenile department!"
"Then I will rely on Mr. Zhao Chen's auspicious words. Oh, by the way, I am chasing and watching every issue of "Baseball Heroes" jointly created by Mr. Andachong and Mr. Zhao Chen, and the painting is very good, and there should be a good chance to win the award this time! ”
"Not necessarily!" The expression on Zhao Chen's face was a little sarcastic, and he knew that he had brought Anda Chong in. The senior management of the Shogakukan must have known by now, and maybe they will modify the awarding work.
As for Anda Chong next to him, his face was excited, after all, he had never won an award, so he naturally hoped to win it.
"Anyway. Mr. Zhao Chen's three works were shortlisted, and at least one of them will win an award! ”
"Accept your good words! Mr. Takahashi, you have a pretty good talent in comics, or that sentence, if you are willing to come to the World Society Exhibition, I will definitely give you better treatment than now! ”
"I'm going to disappoint Teacher Zhao Chen, the treatment given to me by the primary school hall is already quite good, not to mention that I have no plans to leave the primary school hall for the time being! Let's not talk about this, Mr. Zhao Chen's new work "Dragon Ball" is also quite exciting, it has given me a lot of inspiration, and I believe that Mr. Akira Toriyama thinks the same way. ”
Rumiko Takahashi was naturally apologetic for Zhao Chen's invitation again, after all, with Zhao Chen's current status, being able to invite her again and again has already given her a considerable amount of face. If it weren't for the fact that Shogakukan was more powerful and paid more attention to her, maybe Rumiko Takahashi would have been quite hesitant, thinking that in order to avoid embarrassment, she had to change the topic.
This time, Akira Toriyama also came to the award ceremony, but his work was not shortlisted, but he came as a guest to support the scene, in addition to seeing it, he just wanted to know more cartoonists.
Perhaps sensing the gaze, Toriyama Akira couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zhao Chen, and after seeing Zhao Chen, he couldn't help but nod politely, which was regarded as a greeting.
"What's wrong with this?" Zhao Chen wondered, could this Toriyama Ming be modified, why didn't he compete like last time.
"It's not that exaggerated, not to mention that "Dragon Ball" is not mainly going to be funny!"
"Then I'm curious, what route will Dragon Ball take?" Rumiko Takahashi was taken aback, she didn't expect that "Dragon Ball" would not take a funny route, and the curiosity in her heart surged up all of a sudden.
"Secret! If you join the Tianxia Society, I can sue you now! But now, you'll find out when you take a closer look, and you'll be amazed. ”
"Then I'm looking forward to it!"
When the two talked, Andachong basically remained silent, this is his character, except for work, he is usually relatively taciturn and will not say a word.
After talking with Rumiko Takahashi, the award ceremony was about to start, and Zhao Chen and Andamitsu were next to each other, in the middle.
"President, I'm also curious about what route Dragon Ball will take?" As soon as he sat down, An Dachong asked, and at the same time stared at Zhao Chen seriously.
Zhao Chen's heart froze, he knew that he had to answer An Da Chong's question, otherwise he would make An Da Chong think that his status in Zhao Chen's heart was not as good as Takahashi Rumiko, once this seed took root in An Da Chong's heart, it would inevitably explode in the future.
"I can sue you, but don't tell anyone! "Dragon Ball" will take an unprecedented route of blood upgrade in the future! ”
"Bloody upgrade route? What is it? ”
"You'll find out if you read on, and you're guaranteed to surprise everyone!"
"Oh, I see, don't worry, President, I won't tell anyone else until the blood upgrade route comes out."
"I believe in you!"
While the two were talking, the award ceremony began, and naturally there was a special master of ceremonies to preside over the ceremony.
The first to present the award was the juvenile department, when the master of ceremonies was about to say the award works, some people in the venue looked at Zhao Chen, compared with other shortlisted works, "Rebellious Lelouxiu" has a considerable advantage.
Rumiko Takahashi straightened her back, her hands clenched, and her eyes were fixed on the emcee on the stage.
"It was Rumiko Takahashi's "Lucky Star Kid" that won the juvenile department!"
As soon as the emcee's voice fell, Rumiko Takahashi's eyes widened in disbelief, she didn't expect that she would win the award, which was really unexpected.
And everyone in the audience was basically stunned for a moment, followed by discussions, they were also a little incredulous, it was really the quality of "Rebellious Lelouch" that was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, although "Lucky Star Kid" was good, but the gap between the two sides was not small.
"How is that possible!"
"Hehe, you don't want to think about it, Mr. Takahashi is now a cartoonist who is the focus of the Elementary School Museum!"
"Perhaps! It's just that unlike what I expected, I thought at first that the winner would be "Lelouch the Rebellious". ”
"Who knows." ……
For the award-winning Rumiko Takahashi, Zhao Chen's expression did not change, but took the lead in applauding, as if he had nothing to do with him.
"President, how can this be? This elementary school building is too contrived, too. ”
"What else, it's nothing more than to make "Lucky Star Kid" more famous with this award competition! Let's keep watching, in my opinion, the Shogakukan should not be too blatant, and one of the next two awards will definitely be ours. ”
Faced with Anda Chong's problem, Zhao Chen explained casually, after all, the Elementary School Hall Comic Award is the oldest comic awards, this time "Lucky Star Boy" defeated "Rebellious Lelouxiu" to win the juvenile department, as long as it is a little bit behind the scenes, it will cause public opinion, and then the fame of "Lucky Star Boy" will increase greatly, but the Elementary School Pavilion is going to create gods! But in the same way, the Shogakukan manga award will also be questioned.
