Chapter Ninety-Four: Araki Flying Ryuhiko

Zhao Chen would not have known that his words would have such a big effect, and it didn't take long for him to come to Araki Fei Lu Yan's side.

Araki Fei Lu Yan is easy to identify, after all, he is a rare handsome guy in the comic industry of the island country, and the sky is pitiful, there are very few handsome guys who can become cartoonists in the island country, and the beautiful cartoonist is even more legendary.

Araki Fei Lu Yan felt that there was someone beside him, and couldn't help but look up, and when it was Zhao Chen, a friendly smile appeared on his face. The next moment, he turned his gaze back again and calmed down to finish the final drawing.

Unlike Tetsuo Hara, Araki Fei Lu Yan is one of the few male cartoonists who can control shoujo manga, his style tends to be a gorgeous art style, and the background of Zhao Chen's three works is done well, this skill is not bad, and he has been able to complete his own comic works independently.

In Zhao Chen's opinion, maybe the strength of the two is about the same, but Araki Fei Lu Yan's ability at this time is still slightly stronger than Tetsuo Hara.

Just as Araki began to complete the final manga background, more and more contestants completed their tasks one after another and began to hand over the completed drawings to the staff who came to collect them, including Tetsuo Hara.

By the time all the contestants had completed their tasks, it was already noon.

Zhao Chen was rare and generous this time, not only providing lunch for all the players, but also bringing a copy to the crowd of onlookers and reporters.

This is a good opportunity to improve his reputation, and he will not let it go! As the saying goes, eating people has a short mouth, and those authors are afraid that they will write in a good way when they go back this time.

Zhao Chen and the editors in charge were appreciating the works while eating, and occasionally exchanged opinions with each other. Most of the drawings were eliminated after just a few glances, and only a small number of them were placed in front of Zhao Chen. In other words, these editors in charge are responsible for the preliminary review, and Zhao Chen reviews the remaining few works to determine the ranking.

Zhao Chen only has more than a dozen sketches in front of him, and the works that can pass the preliminary review all have a certain level, especially in the style of painting, and at the same time, there are more or less rewards, and the rewards are all money.

Among these dozen works, Araki Fei Lu Yan and Tetsuo Hara are among them, and the two did not disappoint Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen's review is not fast, this is a review after all, and it cannot be generalized like the first trial.

The review took about an hour, and Zhao Chen finished reading them all, and then carefully thought about ranking each work.

In the end, Araki Hirohiko finished third, and Tetsuo Hara almost fell out of the top 10 because of "Sailor Moon". As for the first two, they are controlled by two professional assistants who have been working for many years.

After Zhao Chen announced the works and rankings of the review, most of the contestants were disappointed because they didn't even know the review. The dozen or so players who entered the review were full of excitement, and they were really happy and sad.

"Whew!" Tetsuo Hara finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was just ranked tenth, he was originally worried that his work might not even pass the first review, but he didn't expect that not only did he pass it, but he also won the tenth place, you must know that the reward for the tenth place is also 50,000 yen, which is not a small amount of money for Tetsuo Hara.

As for Araki Feilu Yan, he was much calmer, still with a friendly smile on his face, as if he was a passerby.

In order to hold this assistant competition, Zhao Chen specially made three trophies, all of which were made of bronze and looked shining. At the top of the trophy is a pegasus about to soar through the sky, more like a work of art.

There are some differences in the size of these three trophies, the higher the ranking, the bigger the bigger, and the base is engraved with the words of the champion, runner-up and third runner-up of the first assistant competition of the Tianxia Society, which will be awarded to the top three by Zhao Chen.

"Your painting style is good, remember to submit your work if you have it, don't worry about the remuneration! Of course, if you become a contracted cartoonist of Tianxia Society, the treatment will be preferential! ”

After Zhao Chen awarded the top two, when Araki Fei Lu Yan came to the podium, Zhao Chen said so, and he didn't say the last sentence to the top two.

"Thanks, but please give me some time to think about it!"

Araki Hirohiko was obviously surprised, if he can really become a contracted manga artist, as long as he signs a contract, then it is equivalent to being promoted directly from an assistant to a manga artist, and his own works can be more easily displayed in Tianxia Society.

But Araki Fei Lu Yan is not short of money in the end, and the Tianxia Society is also a nature that has just been established, even if the treatment is very good, he can't agree all at once, after all, as long as he becomes a contracted cartoonist of the Tianxia Society, then he means that he can't contribute to other comic clubs, which is the main restriction to prevent the loss of cartoonists.

"Tianxia Club welcomes you at any time!"

Zhao Chen handed the trophy and check to Araki Fei Lu Yan and said softly.

After Araki stepped down, the awards from 4th to 10th place began.

It was still Zhao Chen who presented the award, but the trophy became a certificate of honor.

When it was Tetsuo Hara's turn to take the stage to accept the award, Zhao Chen said softly: "Tetsuo Hara, if you can, I hope you can be my assistant!" When your strength is reached, you can prioritize your comic works! ”

Zhao Chen naturally won't let go of Tetsuo Hara, but compared to Araki Fei Lu Yan, Tetsuo Hara's strength is still slightly insufficient, and he still needs to accumulate for a period of time before he can complete his works independently.

Tetsuo Hara was visibly stunned for a moment, and then nodded in agreement in Zhao Chen's excited eyes, not only because of Zhao Chen's promise, but also because of Zhao Chen's encouragement to him before.

After the award, Zhao Chen answered a few reporters' questions casually, and then returned to Tianxia Club with Tetsuo Hara.

Zhao Chen's plan is quite simple, Tetsuo Hara's painting style is very suitable for "The Legend of the Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", he plans to only paint the characters of "The Legend of the Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" in the future, and hand over the rest to a few assistants to work together, so that he can have a lot of time. It's just that in this case, Zhao Chen will become a cartoonist who tries his best to exploit his assistants.

In addition, this assistant competition also allowed Zhao Chen to dig out two assistants with delicate painting styles, and the era of "Sailor Moon" without assistants finally came to an end.

Just adding these assistants saved Zhao Chen a lot of time, which was enough to add a new work, which was used to make up the number of manga magazines, mainly to make manga magazines an instant hit, after all, Shueisha's sales channel can only be borrowed once, can you grasp this step completely.

What Zhao Chen didn't expect was that just as he was about to pick which classic comic, the phone rang.

After some conversation, Zhao Chen left the office and walked towards the door of the Tianxia Society, where a figure was anxiously pacing left and right, but it was Gui Zhenghe.

"I don't know how to think about it?"

After Gui Zhenghe saw Zhao Chen, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, as if he had finally made up his mind.

"I've decided to become a signed manga artist of your company!"

A thousand waves were stirred up for a while, and the office of the Tianxia Society was suddenly much quieter, and almost everyone who heard it looked at Nobuyuki Fukumoto with strange eyes.

Zhao Chenleng for a moment, at first he thought that Gui Zhenghe was just here to contribute, but he didn't expect that things were beyond his expectations, Gui Zhenghe was going to become a signed cartoonist of Tianxia Society.

"This ...... That's great! With the addition of Mr. Gui Zhenghe, the growth of Tianxia Society is just around the corner! ”

When Zhao Chen reacted, he was also very excited, in this way, Gui Zhenghe was the first cartoonist to sign a cartoonist with Tianxia Society, not to mention that his future achievements are not low, which is simply a blessing to the newly founded Tianxia Society, even if Gui Zhenghe has not really shown his ability.

"Whew!" Gui Zhenghe was obviously quite apprehensive when he made this determination, he knew that if the Tianxia Society could not be exhibited at that time, then he would also drift with the wind like a flutter in the wind.

"Mr. Gui Zhenghe, your "Wings" can be serialized, but I hope to continue to improve it before then, if you have any questions, you can ask your responsible editor, and you can also find me if necessary!"

Zhao Chen said all kinds of treatment, and asked the staff to put the good contract in front of Gui Zhenghe.

"I know, after communicating with the editor-in-charge for a while, I will try to improve the work."

This contract is almost equivalent to a deed of sale, because the length of the contract is not low, up to ten years, and the list is quite detailed. The advantage is that even if Nobuyuki Fukumoto keeps hitting the streets, the treatment above can barely support him.

After reading it, Gui Zhenghe signed his name, he hasn't proven himself yet, and the treatment he gets will naturally not be too good. But because he was the first cartoonist to sign a contract with Tianxia Society, Zhao Chen still gave Gui Zhenghe quite preferential treatment, including two professional assistants.

I have to say one thing here, that is, due to the fierce competition in the comic industry of the island country, the system is more complete than that of Xiangjiang. Similarly, due to competition, the manuscript fee of cartoonists is much higher than that of Xiangjiang, and the share is also higher.

After negotiation with Gui Zhenghe, also because Gui Zhenghe was the first cartoonist to join the Tianxia Society, Zhao Chen promised to give him a manuscript fee of 5ooo yen/page, if calculated according to the exchange rate between Hong Kong dollars and Japanese yen at that time, it was almost equivalent to 300 Hong Kong dollars per page, which can be said to be relatively high among newcomer cartoonists. In terms of royalties, Nobuyuki Fukumoto received an 8% royalty share. As for the peripherals and the like, I'll wait until later.

After getting Gui Zhenghe, Zhao Chen began to think about which type of comic is the best to draw, and the fastest way to open the island market, so that Tianxia Society can successfully gain a foothold.
