Chapter 286: The Peacock King
Zhao Chen originally wanted to invite the other party in person this time, but after thinking about it, he asked his subordinates to invite someone over, after all, he was a person with status, if he went to invite a 'nobody' in person, not to mention whether the other party would be flattered, but the nervousness was certain.
Looking at the chubby Ogino Shin in front of him, Zhao Chen began to emerge with the information that his subordinates had brought before, this Ogino Shin has a simple personality, he has been an assistant for several years before, and he is currently planning to leave the identity of an assistant to become a cartoonist, and he has already voted for Shueisha twice. It's a pity that these two times didn't get through, and it also made Ogino really a little frustrated.
For Ogino Zhen, the current Zhao Chen is one of the few people at the top of the pyramid in the comics industry, and with his age and strength, he is likely to stand out from those people in the end, and this is the consensus of most cartoonists in the island country, although many in the comics industry in the island country are quite unwilling, but Zhao Chen's general trend has long been unstoppable.
Just like the current highly respected Tezuka Osamu in the comic industry, the current Tezuka Osamu is not as good as before, because of the fear of being lightly overshadowed by Zhao Chen, Tezuka Osamu is already in a desperate state, and the original serialized "Buddha" is put into the cold palace to end, and the main energy begins to be all focused on "Firebird", hoping that the single book of "Firebird" can reach 100 million. It's just that in this way, Osamu Tezuka's insect load has increased, and his already bad body has begun to become weak and sickly.
Ogino sat in his seat carefully, not daring to look at Zhao Chen, who was sitting opposite, obviously a little cramped and uneasy, but he also began to look forward to it. Because the current cartoonists know that if Zhao Chen comes to you in person, there may be great benefits.
"Masa-sensei Ogino, I've seen your two previous submissions to Shueisha, and I think you have all the qualifications for a manga artist, but you just didn't choose the right theme!"
Zhao Chen took a sip of coffee. Only then did Shi Shiran say.
"The subject? Mr. Zhao Chen, what kind of subject do you think I am suitable for? When Ogino Shinichi heard that it was related to his future, his originally cramped and uneasy expression was temporarily put aside, and he stared at Zhao Chen tightly.
"Your current art style is best suited to the fantasy genre!" A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Chen's mouth, his guess was not wrong, the current Ogino Zhen went through the process of being rejected twice for submissions. is obviously lacking in confidence, and he is even more confused about the road of cartoonists. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly much easier to get Ogino to agree to join the Tianxia Society, even if the current Ogino Shin has a contract with Shueisha. As long as Ogino agrees, Tianxia Society can fully fund the purchase of the contract in the form of liquidated damages.
"Magic!" Ogino Zhen was obviously taken aback in his heart, he really didn't think about the works with a magic theme, he just wanted to play a world after leaving the school, so he imitated the current hot "Pokémon" and "Fist of the Big Dipper" on the market.
It's a pity that the former has a simple plot. But he couldn't imitate it at all, because he couldn't draw so many distinctive and kawaii kinds of pm, so he drew a four-like one, and when he voted for Shueisha, he was directly rejected by the editor-in-charge.
And "Fist of the Big Dipper" is easier to imitate, but the problem is that his paintings do not reflect the blood at all, but give people a dull feeling, so they fail again.
The current Ogino is still on the path of imitation, after the first two failures. This time, Ogino Zhen originally had the idea of knocking down the sports-themed "Slam Dunk", but he was called by Zhao Chen's subordinates before he finished thinking about it.
"Yes. Personally, I think your art style and abilities are very suitable for magical themes, especially religious genres! Looking at the confused Ogino Mako, Zhao Chen continued to follow the good guide, no matter how he looked at it, he felt a bit like a human trafficker.
"Magical Religion! Mr. Zhao Chen, then I'll try this kind of comic theme! ”
Ogino Mako's face was excited, and he believed that Zhao Chen's identity would not lie to him for no reason. And Zhao Chen, as a comic master, although he is younger than him, his qualifications and abilities are there, and he also has the feeling that listening to your words is better than reading for ten years.
"Masa-sensei Ogino, I happen to have a religious-style manga outline and character prototype. Since Masa-sensei Ogino wants to try this religious style, you can try this syllabus! ”
As soon as Ogino said the truth, Zhao Chen's eyes lit up slightly, he was not afraid that your heart was higher than the sky, but he was afraid that you would not hang himself, so Zhao Chen naturally took out the briefcase that had been prepared a long time ago and put it in front of Ogino Zhen.
Ogino Zhen looked at the briefcase on the table, although he hadn't seen the content inside, but his face was full of excitement that couldn't be concealed, Zhao Chen not only had all the works of fine works, but also the comic works that he cooperated with were not bad, each of them was a best-selling work on the market, and the cartoonists who cooperated with Zhao Chen with pictures have become famous, not only a few have become well-known cartoonists, but others are also becoming famous, and it seems that becoming a well-known cartoonist is no problem. And fame and sales are vital interests for cartoonists, and Zhao Chen in front of him obviously has this kind of star-making strength.
Thinking that if he cooperated with Zhao Chen, fame and money would come flooding in, Ogino really fell into the imagination of the future and couldn't extricate himself, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited, and his head that could be kicked as a ball was very weird, and finally he couldn't help but drool.
When the saliva flowed out, Ogino Zhen finally reacted, quickly wiped the saliva off with a tissue, and confessed, only to pick up the briefcase with a little trembling, maybe for him now, the briefcase contains his future.
After opening the briefcase, Ogino carefully pulled out the paper, for fear of breaking the slightest, before he began to examine it carefully.
Zhao Chen handed Ogino really his future famous work "Peacock King", this comic belongs to the theme of magic religion, with a total sales of 100 million in history, it is a fairly best-selling work, and this work will only appear next year in history.
Of course, the reason why "Peacock King" has 100 million sales in history is also related to the fact that "Shonen Jump" was at its peak at that time, because during the period of "Peacock In" serialization, "Shonen Jump" had an amazing sales of five or six million in each issue, which naturally led to a sharp increase in the sales of comic book singles serialized on "Shonen Jump" at that time, because "Dragon Ball", "Hokuto God Fist" and "Saint Seiya" were serialized on "Shonen Jump" during this period Three well-known hot-blooded comics and some related popular works.
Of course, the sales of each issue of the current Tianxia Society's "Shonen Sora" are not much worse than the "Shonen Jump" at the peak, and the sales are still growing, and the sales are likely to reach five million in a few months at the current level.
When Ogino finished reading this manga, his face was visibly more excited, and he believed that it was a very good outline, and the characters were also good, which was very much to his liking, as if it was a work tailor-made for him.
"Masa-sensei Ogino, what do you think? If you plan to cooperate with me, you can paint this work, all you pay is to leave Shueisha, and as for the liquidated damages, we are willing to pay! ”
Ogino's real excitement is still expected by Zhao Chen, after all, this "Peacock King" was originally his own famous work, and it is naturally unsurpassed in terms of fit. As for whether Ogino really plans to break away from Shueisha, Zhao Chen also has a great grasp in his heart, it is really embarrassing that Ogino Zhen's current identity in Shueisha is embarrassing.
