On the first day of the first lunar month, everyone gets up early.

Since Ji Yinxuan rarely lives in this villa, she is not very familiar with the people nearby, so she did not go to her neighbors to pay New Year's greetings.

Shen Xin and Yan Fei called, paid a New Year's greeting, and were considering whether to contact Yang Bo, but Yang Bo called Ji Yinxuan first.

After Yang Bo paid a New Year's visit, he told Ji Yinxuan that he still had to call Shen Xin, but Ji Yinxuan stopped him.

"No, he's sitting across from me." Ji Yinxuan said naturally.

"Huh? He's sitting across from you? Wait a minute...... What's going on? ”

Shen Xin could almost imagine Yang Bo's expression, his open mouth should be able to hold two eggs.

"Wait a minute, let him tell you why." Ji Yinxuan directly handed over the phone to Shen Xin.

Before Shen Xin could speak, Yang Bo immediately asked, "Hey...... What's the matter with you? When did you go to Hongchuan? And...... Also with the senior sister. ”

"It's not your painters' business? If you can make the background less abstract and spacious, I won't have to work overtime during the Chinese New Year. Shen Xin said angrily.

"Huh? You passed it for the sake of this? Yang Bo laughed awkwardly twice.

"I have more things to do in the future, how can I have time to deal with them?" Shen Xin said.

Yang Bo felt a little guilty and apologized again and again.

"I don't blame you. Some things are a matter of attitude, some things are a matter of ability, just try your best. I can't ask too much of you either. Shen Xin showed great generosity.

“……”

Yang Bo didn't want to deal with Shen Xin for a moment.

By noon, everyone had their own plans.

"I heard that Nanjiatan has a very ACG atmosphere, and there is also a movie theater, so I plan to go there and see it first."

For lovers of the second yuan of China, the status of Nanjiatan District is very high, with all kinds of animation peripheral stores, model figure shops, theme cafes, video game stores, and several of the largest comic bookstores in China.

If you look carefully, you can even find original comic magazines in Area 11 such as Shonen Leap, as well as original game consoles.

In addition, there are some manga tools that are not very common in other places, such as a feather brush to sweep away eraser shavings, fixing liquid to save drawings, or X-shaped molds for drawing effect lines.

The status of Nanjiatan in China is similar to that of Akihabara in the 11th region of the earth, which is the area with the highest concentration of ACG elements in China.

"Why don't we go shopping together and buy some things by the way." Ji Yinxuan said.

Chinese New Year is the most important festival in China, but many shops are still open, but the opening hours may be adjusted.

Xi Muhan also showed interest, Xia Luo didn't say anything, but her look told everyone that this proposal was very good.

In the end, Ji Yinxuan made a decision, Shen Xin went to the movies, and the three of them went shopping.

So, everyone took a short rest and took a car to the city.

Hongchuan's economy is among the best in China, and it is not comparable to second-tier cities like Yunhai.

After entering the city, there are many high-rise buildings on both sides of the road, which makes people overwhelmed, but most of the high-rise buildings are closed, and the usually crowded streets are extremely empty today.

Charlotte parked the car in the parking lot, and the four of them got out of the car one after another.

Shen Xin and Xi Muhan came to Nanjiatan for the first time, and it was also the first time to come to a place with such a dense concentration of ACG elements.

Although some stores are closed, some large stores, such as model toy stores, video game stores, and animation product stores, are still open.

After Charlotte's introduction, Shen Xin also knew several shops that sold game consoles and original magazines in Area 11.

Shen Xin didn't know Japanese, so he wasn't very interested in these things, and after taking two glances, he came to the store that sold comic tools.

Xi Muhan looked left and right, she had seen some of these painting tools, such as dipping pens, dot paper, cloud rulers, and duckbill pens, but some things she had not seen much, such as feather brushes and hanging net knives.

Ji Yinxuan seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and looked at the surrounding goods as if she was looking at the flowers.

Charlotte wasn't too interested in that, and all her attention was on thistle's safety.

Shen Xin looked around roughly, and finally stopped in front of an instrument the size of an LCD monitor.

"Pen display?"

Most cartoonists in this world mostly use pen and paper, and a few people in Yunhai will choose to use a pen tablet, let alone a pen display.

Electronic devices have their own advantages and disadvantages compared to pen and paper.

For example, the pen tablet is easy to operate, and it is easier to modify the original and connect the dot paper, but it also has disadvantages, after all, it is simulating the effect of paper and pen, so the pen pressure of the pressure-sensitive stroke on the pen tablet is not as good as that of real paper and pen.

Moreover, the development of this world on the pen tablet was several years later than that of the Earth, and it has not yet been universally accepted by cartoonists. At the same time, the effect of the pen tablet simulation is not satisfactory to the top cartoonists.

Shen Xin picked up the penitential pen placed on the counter, drew a few times on the pen screen, and soon a sketch of a character appeared.

The salesman's mouth opened slightly, and before he could speak, Shen Xin erased the sketch again, and the salesman sighed regretfully.

"Do you want to buy it?" Ji Yinxuan asked.

Shen Xin shook his head, "Not yet, I'll talk about it in a few years." ”

Xi Muhan glanced at the pricing of the pen display, 60,000. thought that Shen Xin was concerned about the price, and whispered: "There is no shortage of this money at home, why don't you buy it?" ”

Ji Yinxuan also nodded and said, "Why don't I send you." ”

"Don't." Shen Xin hurriedly waved his hand, "It's not a matter of money, the use of a pen screen depends not only on its own quality, but also on the supporting software." It might be better in a few more years. ”

In the store, Shen Xin couldn't say clearly that this pen screen didn't meet his requirements, so he could only say it vaguely.

When Xi Muhan and Ji Yinxuan heard this, they understood Shen Xin's thoughts, so they didn't speak again.

Coming out of the store, the three girls discussed it a little and decided to buy a few clothes, and insisted on not letting Shen Xin follow. Shen Xin gave the bank card to Xi Muhan, took 200 yuan in cash, and began to wander around Nanjiatan.

said that it was hanging out, but in fact, Shen Xin also had a destination, that is, a comic bookstore, and he wanted to know what comics were the most popular in Hongchuan, and how big the gap between "Y's" and "Crime" was in this place.

He bought a burger at a fast-food restaurant, and by the way, he also found out that the largest comic book store in Nanjiatan is "Jiman", that is, a bookstore 50 meters to the right across the street.

According to the clerk's prompt, Shen Xin found "Jiman".

Even though it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were still many customers coming in and out, and posters of various comics were placed at both ends of the bookstore. Most of them are signature manga from the three major magazines.

Last year's most popular "The Legend of the Dragon King" is placed in the most conspicuous place, next to the hot-selling "Crime".

Near the entrance of the bookstore, there was also a poster that read "Pre-sale".

When Shen Xin saw the content of the poster, he immediately became interested.

""Hunting Abyss", at 10 a.m. on February 16, Mr. Ye Hexu signed and sold the book, so stay tuned."

"Hunting the Abyss...... In 6 days, it will be released. ”

Shen Xin rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.
