Chapter 239: Snipers and Stepping Stones
"Is Mr. Wang busy?"
Jia Hui entered Wang Yunze's studio, and the three assistants all sat at the desk to paint.
"Teacher?" An assistant looked up, pointed to the back room, and said, "The teacher is still in the studio." ”
"Oh." Jia Hui held the briefcase and looked at Wang Yunze's studio quite confused.
The news that "Chess Soul" will be serialized simultaneously on "Leap" has spread throughout the comic world.
Everyone has mixed reviews of "Chess Soul", and some people feel that Murakami has eyes and has picked a featureless manga.
Jia Hui scoffed at this, people who said this kind of thing have hardly seen "Chess Soul", and their evaluation of "Chess Soul" is completely taken for granted, plus a trace of jealousy.
Some people also think that "Chess Soul" is a rare competitive comic, although it is a bit slow, but if it continues at this pace, it is not difficult to become a classic.
Become a classic? If nothing else, at least surpass "Slam Dunk" first, right?
However, "Chess Soul" has just started, and it is not necessary to say that it will definitely lose to "Slam Dunk". It's just that, limited by the subject matter, the attention of "Chess Soul" is destined to be inferior to "Slam Dunk".
Jia Hui himself was very conflicted in his heart when facing "Chess Soul".
If someone outside the magazine said bad things about "Chess Soul", he would definitely fight for it. But in private, he was a little unconvinced.
Why can "Chess Soul" be serialized simultaneously in District 11 in more than 30 words?
Even if it is serialized synchronously, will it definitely be comparable to "The Legend of the Dragon King"?
Jia Hui felt a little sour in his heart, and he was even more unconvinced.
He gently pushed open the door of the studio and saw Wang Yunze lying on the drawing board painting.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Jia Hui feels that the distance between Wang Yunze and the drawing board is closer than before.
"Mr. Wang, I'm here to pick up the sketch." Jia Hui said softly.
"Huh? Oh. Wang Yunze sat up straight, took out two envelopes from the drawer, and turned around to hand them to Jia Hui, "One is the original manuscript of the new word, and the other is the name of the next word." ”
Jia Hui hurriedly took the two envelopes, pulled out the original manuscript, and quickly read the contents.
Although he had seen the name before, seeing the original manuscript at this moment, Jia Hui was still attracted by the story.
It wasn't until the last page that he reluctantly put the original manuscript into the envelope, ready to read the name of the next sentence, when he suddenly heard Wang Yunze say: "Lao Jia, I heard that Murakami came to Yishu Culture two days ago. ”
"That's right."
What should come is finally coming.
Jia Hui put away the envelope containing Name, sat up straight, and looked at Wang Yunze.
At this moment, there was no joy or anger on Wang Yunze's face.
"I signed "Chess Soul" and let "Chess Soul" be serialized simultaneously, right?"
"That's right."
"ComicFuture" has officially announced that Jia Hui has no need to hide it.
"Well, that's a good thing." Wang Yunze nodded, his face was still unhappy or angry, "I heard that he said that he would take the first place in the 'little book' of "ComicFuture" for three consecutive months, and his sales would also exceed that of "The Legend of the Dragon King". ”
"Who did you listen to?"
Jia Hui was a little anxious, in case Wang Yunze was unhappy, whether it was for the magazine or Shen Xin, it was not necessarily a good thing.
"Dong Bao."
"Huh? He? ”
Jia Hui has an urge to scold and scold, isn't Bao Jiyi doing this to sow discord?
"Although I am a senior and older, I am not convinced. Why did he have such confidence? Wang Yunze suddenly frowned, looking puzzled.
"No, although I haven't been in contact with that child, Wang Wenhong has a high opinion of him, I ...... I think he shouldn't be too troublesome. ”
Wang Yunze waved his hand, "Lao Jia, listen to what I say." After knowing this, I watched all of "Chess Soul" and felt a lot of emotion. ”
"What's the catch?" Jia Hui was a little confused.
"On the surface, "Chess Soul" is a basin of cold water, the water surface is as smooth as a mirror, but it is already very hot underwater. When I first read it, I felt a little flat, but before I knew it, I was attracted to each character. Because of the existence of Zuowei, at first glance, there are some unreasonable things about the comics. But when I calmed down and read through "Chess Soul", I found that the comics were full of truth. This is indeed a good manga. Wang Yunze sighed.
"Teacher Wang, you ......"
"Angry, huh? Not really. After all, I am twice as old as Mr. Shen, and I still have the energy I should have. And, it is precisely because of the presence of newcomers that ComicFuture will be better. This is not only true for Mr. Shen, but also for Mr. Ye. ”
"That's fine." Jia Hui breathed a sigh of relief.
"I have one request, though."
"Huh? Request? Jia Hui's heart that had just been put down was brought up again.
"Don't be afraid...... When "Chess Soul" overtakes me, tell me. ”
"Why?" Jia Hui was puzzled.
"I'm going to prepare the best plot and try it out with "Chess Soul". If you want to step on me and get the first place in "ComicFuture" for three months in a row, I won't easily agree. Wang Yunze said seriously.
Jia Hui nodded, isn't it just for a breath to live? It is estimated that Wang Yunze can't swallow this breath.
"If I win, it means that Chess Soul still needs to be polished. If I lose, I'll be a stepping stone and carry him once. The first place is valuable only when you win against an opponent who is evenly matched, right? Wang Yunze said with a smile.
Jia Hui's mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Wang Yunze in surprise, and his eyes appeared with excitement.
……
Ye Hexu leaned back in her chair, opened the magazine with both hands, raised it above her head, and fixed her eyes on the contents of the magazine.
"Synchronous serialization? And also...... For three months in a row, winning first place in "ComicFuture"? Ye Hexu casually threw the magazine behind him and stretched out his hands, "I finally found something interesting." However, Jian Xiaomei, why is "Hunting Abyss" not serialized simultaneously? Is it that you are not trying hard enough? ”
"Shut up! I work in Huaxia, not in District 11, what do others think, how do I know? Maybe they don't think you're good enough? Jian Xiaomei didn't have a good airway.
"Impossible, right? I'm either second or third now, isn't that enough? Ye Hexu asked rhetorically.
"It also depends on how many resources you eat." Jian Xiaomei patted Ye Hexu's head.
"I've decided!" Ye Hexu suddenly stood on the chair and looked at Jian Xiaomei condescendingly, "I decided to snipe "Chess Soul" and let his plan to be the first for three consecutive months come to naught." ”
"By what snipe?" Jian Xiaomei was puzzled.
Ye Hexu squatted down, turned the swivel chair, took a pencil and wrote the manuscript paper, and soon turned around again and placed a sketch in front of Jian Xiaomei.
On the scratch paper is a monster with a human face and a beast body, and its body is full of cracked marks.
"This monster is the main force sniping Teacher Shen. Before he hits the first place, I have to think of a great plot. ”
"Don't you appreciate Teacher Shen very much?"
"That's right. But I appreciate myself more. And, don't you think it's going to be fun? Ye Hexu bared his teeth and smiled.
Jian Xiaomei rubbed her forehead, she didn't expect that this guy had the shortcomings of narcissism in addition to being brainless in talking.
