Chapter 119: The Beginning of the Tragedy
"Me, me!" Araki Fei Lu Yan's mouth moved a few times, he naturally hoped that "Armed Poker" could continue to be serialized, but he was not stupid, if he really chose to continue serializing "Armed Poker", it would not only make Zhao Chen and other cartoonists look down on him, but he might even look down on himself at that time.
On the other hand, if "Armed Poker" is really allowed to continue to be serialized, Zhao Chen's prestige in Tianxia Club will inevitably be hit, and it will also attract the dissatisfaction of other cartoonists, especially another cartoonist whose work was cut in half.
"Please cut down Armed Poker by the President!"
In the end, the struggle on Araki Fei Lu Yan's face disappeared, and he said this sentence almost word by word, and after finishing speaking, the pressure on his body seemed to disappear, and the expression on his face was much better than when he first came in.
"Very good, Mr. Araki, you made the right choice! Because even if my work enters the half-cut sequence, I will accept it! Only in this way can we continue to improve, and I hope Mr. Araki can understand! ”
"President, I also understand this initiative, but after all, it is my hard work, and it is difficult to let go for a while! I would also like to ask the president to give me a little time to create a better comic work on the basis of the complete completion of "Armed Poker", and I would like to ask the president to give me a little bit of guidance when the time comes! ”
"Yes, I'm also looking forward to Mr. Araki's next work!"
After Araki Fei Lu Yan left the office, Zhao Chen took out a brand new comic book from the drawer, but it was Araki Fei Lu Yan's "Armed Poker". After a while, Zhao Chen couldn't help but shake his head, although Araki Fei Lu Yan has formed his own style, he still needs more exercise.
"Let's wait a while, when Mr. Araki's strength improves. Let him create JoJo's Bizarre Adventure! I just don't know what his next work will be? I'm looking forward to it! ”
Just as Zhao Chen was thinking, the phone in the office suddenly rang.
"Oh, I see, let him in!"
Zhao Chen put down the phone, and the light in his eyes flickered. I don't know what I'm thinking.
Not long after, the door of the office was knocked again, and after Zhao Chen shouted "Please come in", a young man's figure came into view, but it was Zhao Chen's comic assistant Tetsuo Hara!
Tetsuo Hara had a little apprehension on his face, and the two sides were placed in front of him. Clenched a briefcase a little thick.
Zhao Chen glanced at the briefcase in Tetsuo Hara's hand, and his eyes showed such an expression, but he still said in his mouth: "Mr. Tetsuo Hara, please take a seat!" ”
"Yes, President, I'm afraid I'm going to disturb you this time!"
Tetsuo Hara sat a little nervously opposite Zhao Chen. It's just that the fart/stock only sits on a small area, and it doesn't look like a general nervousness.
At this time, Tetsuo Hara was still serving as Zhao Chen's comic assistant, and he naturally had more understanding of Zhao Chen than other cartoonists, perhaps in Tetsuo Hara's view, Zhao Chen belonged to the typical cartoonist representative who oppressed his assistant, and often pushed the rest of the work to the assistant only by drawing characters. But it was also because of this relationship that Tetsuo Hara was more shocked by Zhao Chen's strength. And in just a few months, I have learned a lot of things, especially in painting, and I have made great progress.
No one would want to be an assistant for the rest of their lives, after all, the work of assistants is not only tiring, but they can only support themselves with a small salary, and their goal is extremely clear, that is, to become a real manga artist, and Tetsuo Hara is no exception. Moreover, at this time, Tetsuo Hara thought that he had reached the level of becoming a cartoonist, so he would be cheeky to come to Zhao Chen.
"Tetsuo Hara-sensei. I can guess your intention, I want to contribute to "Young soRa"! ”
Zhao Chen took his eyes off the briefcase and looked at Tetsuo Hara, who was sitting on the opposite side, his eyes flickering.
"Yes, President. Please give me this opportunity! Tetsuo Hara's face was entangled for a moment, and then he made up his mind and put the briefcase in his hand in front of Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen didn't immediately look at the briefcase, but looked at Tetsuo Hara with an inexplicable expression and asked, "Have you shown it to the editor?" ”
"I've seen it, but the editor can't say for sure!"
Tetsuo Hara hesitated for a moment, but finally told the truth, which means that the editor is not optimistic, and he is afraid of damaging Tetsuo Hara's enthusiasm, so it is better to say it.
Tetsuo Hara actually thought that this was his chance when he heard about the two initiatives of "Shonen soRa", because whether it was cutting two serialized works in half or adding three more works, it was undoubtedly quite good news for him. It's because of him that he came to post.,I hope to get serialized!
"Okay, I'll see!" Looking at Tetsuo Hara's somewhat ashamed eyes, Zhao Chen couldn't help but feel a little dark in his heart, feeling that sitting in the position of the president was really down-to-earth, these well-known cartoonists who had not really grown up didn't even dare to come out in front of him, but realized only promises.
Zhao Chen is not good at shirking Tetsuo Hara, and he also wants to see Tetsuo Hara's true strength now.
Taking out the sketch from the briefcase, Zhao Chen began to flip through it, and as the pages of the sketch were opened, the original Tetsuo Yuan on the opposite side became even more nervous, because Zhao Chen's degree of turning the page was obviously accelerating, which was not good news, and he couldn't help but pray that Zhao Chen's reading degree could slow down.
It's a pity that Tetsuo Hara's prayer didn't take effect, just a few minutes, Zhao Chen put down the sketch in his hand and didn't mean to watch it again, which made Tetsuo Hara feel disappointed for a while, and it felt like the sky had fallen. Because Zhao Chen's actions were almost equivalent to giving him an answer.
"How to say it! Mr. Tetsuo Hara, your painting may still be a little immature, but it has also reached the strength of serialization! But I feel like this comic of yours is a bit of a feeling that you can't let go.,And the plot is relatively old-fashioned.,But it hasn't met the requirements of serialization! ”
For Tetsuo Hara, Zhao Chen's answer overwhelmed him, and his face was much more ugly, but he still thanked him bitterly.
Just when Tetsuo Hara shrugged his head and was about to leave, Zhao Chen stopped him again.
"Tetsuo Hara-sensei, you already have the strength to become a manga artist, but this work really doesn't meet the standards for serialization! I also hope that you can overturn it and redraw a better work, and you can come to me at any time when the time comes. As long as it meets the standard of serialization, I will make another arrangement next! ”
Zhao Chen's words obviously gave confidence to Tetsuo Hara, who was still a little unconfident, especially the sentence that you already have the strength of a cartoonist, coupled with the following words, which gave Tetsuo Hara affirmation and respect, making Tetsuo Hara more grateful to Zhao Chen.
"President, I will definitely draw better works, and I will ask the president to give me advice when the time comes!"
"Come on! I'm sure you'll get what you want! ”
After Tetsuo Hara left with an excited expression, Zhao Chen fell into deep thought again, muttering to himself: "It seems that he still needs to be allowed to hone more, otherwise the quality of "Beidou God Fist" is bound to decline!" ”
It turned out that after Zhao Chen saw Tetsuo Hara's sketch, he thought that the current Tetsuo Hara would not be able to fully control "Beidou God Fist", otherwise he would directly draw the storyboard of "Big Dipper God Fist" and cooperate with Yuan Tetsuo! When the time comes, with the popularity of "Fist of the North Dipper", it is bound to drive the sales of "Young soRa".
The increase in the number of "Shonen soRa" works has undoubtedly given comic fans better expectations, especially among the several manga that have been added to "Shonen soRa" after the revision, there is once again a potential work, and that is "Baseball Heroes"!
Because "Baseball Heroes" was done by Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen's name appeared in the author's position again, followed by Andachong, who specialized in drawing. Just like the authors of the later generations of "**" and "Dream Eaters", the cartoonists who do the storyboard are often placed in the front, and those who specialize in drawing are placed in the back, which seems to show that the original author has a higher status.
The appearance of "Baseball Heroes" has quickly won the recognition of comic book fans and shows enough potential, which can be seen from the first issue of "Baseball Heroes" won the first place in the readers' survey.
Of course, the first issue of "Baseball Heroes" broke the monopoly position of "Rebellious Lelouch" for the first time because it was a color page, and it won the first place very reluctantly, which is less than a percentage point different from Lelouch, which can be said to be quite dangerous. After all, Lelouch is different from other comics of this era, and the beauty of this comic is especially attractive to comic book fans, and "Baseball Heroes" is undoubtedly dwarfed in this regard.
If it were normal, "Rebellious Lelouch" would basically not be defeated when it was serialized, but the problem was that "Rebellious Lelouxiu" was initially showing its tragedy, which would make some comic fans dissatisfied, so that it fell from the altar for the first time in the reader's survey.
