Chapter 207: Ghost Talent
When Enma Sakura met Koji Yoshida, it was obvious that the editor-in-charge, who was quite responsible, had a not very good face, and seemed to be tired about what he was.
For the sake of Koji Yoshida bringing those snacks that she likes to eat, Enma Sakura asked a few more words to express her concern.
In any case, this editor in charge is quite comfortable as a "delivery person", almost as long as she has a phone call and a message, Koji Yoshida can help her take care of chores, which is very comfortable.
Koji Yoshida's concern for the "naturally cold" genius manga girl Sakura Sensei was still quite moved, and then he took Sakura Teacher as the object of confiding and began to complain.
The object of his complaints, of course, is not his family and colleagues, but a new ghost cartoonist he unearthed before this - Hiramaru Kazuya.
This 26-year-old man was originally just a very ordinary "general club member", that is, the so-called social animal, who happened to read a copy of "Shonen Jump" on the train, and then thought, "I can draw like this."
And it just so happened that in this issue of the magazine, there were some small theaters that interviewed cartoonists, and the interviewers talked about the various benefits of being a cartoonist, which was obviously deliberately promoted by the magazine, hoping to deceive more people into the comic circle.
The interviewer said that the biggest advantage of being a cartoonist is that you can spend your time freely, as long as you draw the original manuscript in advance, then you can rest as much as you want.
This is the so-called "if you have a manuscript, you can do whatever you want".
After watching this interview, Heimaru Ichi was immediately excited, just because he worked really hard as a social animal, and he didn't have enough time to rest.
As we all know, Dongying's overtime culture is prevalent, and they basically fish all kinds of fish during normal working hours, and when they work overtime, they will improve their efficiency a little bit.
And after working overtime, colleagues go to the izakaya to get together, maybe a few more together.
After all, if you go home after work, I am afraid that you will be looked down upon by your wife, and you will think that such a husband has no ability and is not popular.
Of course, Hiramaru Kazuya, a single dog, doesn't have such troubles, but he is really tired of this kind of social animal life without freedom.
So he tried to contribute to "Shonen Jump", and the person who received him happened to be Koji Yoshida, the editor in charge of Enma Sakura.
Koji Yoshida felt like he had won the jackpot after reading the short story submitted by Kazuya Hiramaru!
Obviously, not long ago, he just signed "Yuki Sakura", a genius manga girl who is good at love themes and has excellent drawing skills, and now he actually met Hiramaru Kazuya, a manga genius!
The painting of Hirimaru Kazuya is actually quite ordinary, after all, before he submitted, he was just a social animal, and he did not have any dreams of becoming a painter.
But whether this guy is a student or after work, he especially likes to be busy, all kinds of fishing to kill time, and the way to touch fish is, of course, to draw comics to entertain himself.
It's just that he never thought about becoming a professional cartoonist, but after reading the works drawn by other cartoonists, he felt that "I can do it too", so he did!
Although his works are average, their imagination is so rich that they can be described as imaginative, and the plot is also very interesting and has no lack of depth at all.
After all, his experience is there, such an excellent work, of course, was taken by Koji Yoshida at a glance.
Yoshida Koji thought that he had won another god card, only to find out later that this card was a god, but he was too pitiful!
This Hiramaru Kazuya, in the creation of comics, has a serious procrastination, and before the "dead line" comes, he doesn't seem to have the desire to create at all, so he needs an editor who is proficient in "hardcore urging" to keep whipping him behind him.
Hiramaru Kazuya felt that he had been fooled, not to say how much time he spent as a cartoonist, every day was a day off, how did he find out later, where is this Nima every day a day off, obviously all year round!
Presumably, those Internet writers in country Z who have fallen headlong into the big pit of "Internet" also have a common language with this Heimaruichi, and it is too painful to update (draw) every day!
Ordinary people can enjoy rest days and holidays, but online writers are more updated on such days to meet the expectations of readers......
So, the ghost manga artist Hiramaru Kazuya began a tug-of-war between him and editor Koji Yoshida, but because several of his short stories published in the magazine were very popular, readers responded violently, and various newcomer awards also took off.
What can such a ghost cartoonist do, even if he suffers from severe procrastination?
Koji Yoshida still had to endure it, and chased after his ass in various ways, and the two staged a comedy-like daily routine every day.
And because he had to keep an eye on Hiramaru Kazuya, Koji Yoshida forgot to pay attention to Enma Sakura's new work.
In his opinion, Sakura-sensei is much better than this Heimaru Ichiya, and he will never have to worry about her delaying the manuscript with the original manuscript.
As for Hiramaru Kazuya, he has done everything with the draft of the storyboard, but he is too lazy to draw the original manuscript, and he is afraid that one day he will do something like publishing the draft directly in the main issue of the magazine......
After listening to Yoshida Koji's fancy complaints, she said in her heart that this person is the "rich old thief" in the small world, the winner of the life of the beautiful cartoonist Naoko Takeuchi who stopped playing mahjong and playing games all day long.
But this Heimaru is also clearly more excessive than Yoshihiro Tomiyasu, after all, the latter was relatively reliable at the beginning of his comic career, and after winning the "Tezuka Reward" for admission, he took off directly through "Yuyou Hakusho".
After he drew "Full-Time Hunter", he became more and more pitiful, and most of the other cartoonists of "Shonen Jump" had to draw one word a week, but Yoshihiro Tomiyasu had the privilege of drawing one word a month, so he couldn't insist on it, and he would take a three-month break from publication at every turn, and then he really did the thing of handing in the draft for publication......
After complaining about Hiramaru Kazuya, Koji Yoshida finally felt that his depression dissipated a little by the other party.
And after experiencing a ghost manga artist like Hiramaru Kazuya, Koji Yoshida looks at "Yuki Sakura" and how pleasing to the eye, I just feel that the other party is clearly the perfect cartoonist in his mind!
Not to mention the outstanding works, the selection of "Tezuka Reward" is the best proof, the key is that her character and pit products are also guaranteed!
Koji Yoshida listened to the brain hole of Enma Sakura's new serialization of "Miss Kaguya", of course, he was very supportive, this kind of lighthearted, funny, and sweet manga, no matter which magazine it was published in, there was no need to worry about popularity.
Just when the two were discussing the new work of the serialization, "The Dancing Girl of Izu", the "Tezuka Reward" was selected, and after "Your Name", it once again aroused a strong response from readers!
However, this time it was not unanimously praised......
