Chapter 948: Invitation
Back in District 11, Asai Hui doesn't have to worry about her assistant's affairs for the time being, but she doesn't want to do it, but wants to practice Huaxia as much time as possible.
After half a year of study, she can already communicate in Huaxia for simple purposes, and there is no big problem with the commonly used spoken language and the sentences commonly used in the studio, but it still takes some effort to recognize words.
Fortunately, in the language of District 11, there are also Chinese characters, and she also has a certain foundation.
In addition to practicing Huaxia language, another concern of Asai Hui is the popularity of "SLAM DUNK" in District 11.
When she was in Huaxia, she had to spend time learning the language every day, and when she returned to her residence and had a simple communication with Liu Ruoxing, she would fall asleep, and in many cases, she would not have the opportunity to watch the forum in District 11 again.
In addition, "SLAM DUNK" ranks well in the new book of "Shonen Leap", but Shen Xin is not from District 11 after all, when someone compares "SLAM DUNK" with other comics, there are more people who do not support "SLAM DUNK" in the forum, and if she meets the bar spirit again, it may make her angry.
ALTHOUGH SHE KNOWS ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER OF HUAXIA CHARACTERS AND CAN'T READ THE PLOT OF "SLAM DUNK", SHE CAN READ THE STORYBOARD. Judging from the comics she has read, the storyboards shown in "SLAM DUNK" are also among the top in "Shonen Leap", which is her judgment as a person.
After returning to District 11, she took the time to buy a set of the District 11 version of "SLAM DUNK", and what bothered her was that the language difficulties were finally eliminated, and thanks to this, she really saw the full plot of "SLAM DUNK" for the first time.
It's more fun than you think!
It was the thought that crossed her mind after seeing the Region 11 edition of SLAM DUNK, especially when she watched the latest installment of Shonen Leap.
Exquisite storyboarding, excellent painting skills, coupled with an interesting plot, such a result ranks in the top five of small books, which is completely normal, the only fly in the ointment is that Shen Xin's "foundation" in "Youth Leap" is too shallow, and the previous "Youth Leap" did not deliberately praise Shen Xin, resulting in his popularity in "Youth Leap", but compared with Uematsuno and Yamagishi Liangren, it is always a little worse.
If you want to be stable in the first place of "Shonen Leap" for a long time, such popularity is definitely not enough.
Fortunately, after the serialization of "SLAM DUNK" in the "counterattack", its popularity in the 11th district began to rise, and after the "counterattack", Xiangbei also began to quickly narrow the score gap under the leadership of Liu Chuanfeng and Mu Gangxian, but as the head coach of the Lingnan team called a timeout, the countermeasures of the Lingnan team also changed, and Liu Chuanfeng was strictly guarded.
"Ikebana-san, go and warm up, it's time for you to play."
After hearing this, Hanamichi smiled, quickly dribbled to warm up, and it happened that after Mu Gangxian was hit, the corners of his eyebrows broke and bled out, which also gave Hanamichi a chance to play.
Seeing that Hanamichi is about to play, the story comes to an abrupt end, and if you want to watch the next episode, you have to wait until the next year.
Pain –
AMI ALSO FINALLY REALIZED THE PAIN OF CHASING THE READING, AND THE MORE TRAGIC POINT IS THAT IF SHE DOES NOT MASTER THE HUAXIA SCRIPT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, IT WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER TO READ THE NEW "SLAM DUNK".
Learning Huaxia characters sounds simple, but when she sees the "Huaxia Dictionary", which is more than 1,000 pages thick, her head is big.
After putting the Chinese textbook on the table, she rubbed her temples.
The rest of the family shrunk into the kotatsu to watch TV, and she had to memorize Chinese words.
I'm a little envious of my family.
Asai Hui rested for two or three minutes, opened her eyes and wanted to continue practicing Huaxia characters, when suddenly, the white clamshell machine placed at the head of the table turned on a few lights.
She turned on her phone and saw that someone had sent her an email, and the person who sent the email was Yusuke Hosaka, who, like her, had served as an assistant to Yoshito Yamagishi, but he had been following Yoshito Yamagishi for thirteen or fourteen years, and he was regarded as Yoshito Yamagishi's chief assistant.
After "Wasteland Hunter" ended, she never contacted Yusuke Hosaka again.
After all, everyone has their own lives, and assistants are not like other professions, as soon as a manga serialization ends, they have to go their separate ways and work as assistants for other cartoonists.
They want to go on with their lives.
This phenomenon is especially evident after she travels to China, where she has little contact with anyone other than greetings from her family, close friends, and the beloved people of Yamagishi.
Why did Yusuke Hosaka email her today?
Asai Hui didn't understand it, and the text in the email also confused her.
"Xiaohui, are you back?"
"Well, at home."
As soon as the email was sent, Yusuke Hosaka immediately replied to the email, "The video will talk for a while." ”
Hui Asai could only turn on the webcam, and she was also curious about what Yusuke Hosaka wanted to do.
Yusuke Hosaka is in his forties, but he already has gray hair, but Yusuke Hosaka on the screen has ruddy cheeks, misty eyes, and a wine glass in his hand, but there is a mess behind him.
"Senior ......"
"Xiaohui, when did you come back?"
"You've just been back for over a week, haven't you?"
"Oh, how are you doing in Huaxia?"
"Mr. Shen is very good, and the other assistants are also very enthusiastic, but in terms of language communication, it will be very inconvenient in some things." Hui Asai explained.
"That's right, Huaxia may not be comparable to District 11, especially the comic industry, which is much different from District 11. The advantage of Huaxia is that the market is large, so cartoonists will not want to make progress, and think that they can draw almost enough......"
"Senior, you look for me...... It's not to belittle the cartoonists of Huaxia, right? Hui Asai interrupted Yusuke Hosaka's words.
"That's, I just think it's very inconvenient for you to go abroad as a girl, so it's better to go back to China for development."
"Huaxia is actually not bad......"
"You don't understand." Yusuke Hosaka waved his hand, "Shonen Leap will have a 'manga festival' in January, you know? To put it simply, "Shonen Leap" is preparing to make a big move in January, when some comics and merchandise will be sold at a discount. In addition, from the 2nd to the 4th issue of "Shonen Leap", 6 manga will be selected for coloring page promotion. These six manga, in addition to the manga that rank in the top five on average for small books, also have a short manga serialized. ”
"IS THERE A SLAM DUNK?" Asai Hui said curiously.
"SLAM DUNK" has been in 5th place most of the time, and according to the average ranking, it is about 5th place.
"Yes." Yusuke Hosaka.
Hui Asai's eyes are bright.
The fact that SLAM DUNK was able to participate in the "Manga Festival" shows that it has been recognized by the editorial department, and such an opportunity is once in a lifetime.
"Mr. Yamagishi would create a short story for this manga festival, but he felt that his energy was limited, so he gave me the job of drawing. What do you think? Would you like to help me? ”
Ha?
When Asai Hui heard Yusuke Hosaka's words, she blinked her eyes, and she felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart.
She just didn't want to stay in District 11 at the beginning, so she came to Huaxia, but she didn't expect to receive an invitation from her predecessors again.
