Chapter 182: Hesitation and Surprise
"I'm sorry I caused trouble to Miss Yan yesterday, so I ran over to apologize to Miss Yan early this morning." Shang Haozhi was apologetic, but his face couldn't hide his exhaustion.
Shang Huaizhi should have only known about it last night, but he arrived today. If it weren't for the plane, those two people would probably be tired enough.
However, the incident happened suddenly, and it is estimated that it is also a little difficult to buy a plane ticket, so it seems that it should be driven over.
"Sister Yan, have you talked about it?" Shen Xin was surprised.
Yan Fei was with them, which was indeed beyond Shen Xin's imagination.
"Nope."
"Why?" Shen Xin was puzzled.
"I don't want to have too much contact with them." Yan Fei tried not to look at Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong, "That would confirm the rumors." ”
"Originally, I really left you an editor." Shang Haozhi sighed.
"I can find a job myself, and I don't need your handouts." Yan Fei refused.
Shang Haozhi touched his mustache, slightly embarrassed.
"Mr. Shen, as a reader, I hope you don't be impulsive, because this is your first comic, if you really don't draw it, your future development will be affected." Yan Fei said seriously.
"I know, but if you don't have the energy, it's hard to come back. As for the ending of "Y's", I will draw the second half of the manga when this contract expires. Shen Xin said.
"End of contract?" Yan Fei was surprised, "I remember that you signed a 10-year contract. ”
Shen Xin nodded.
"You're really good at dragging." Yan Fei has a black line.
"There is a reason for this, and everyone should be able to understand it." Shen Xin said helplessly.
"Now that you know what to expect, I won't say anything more. I didn't have anything to do here, just ask Y's. As for the two of them...... I want to talk to you about something. Yan Fei turned her head and looked at Shang Haozhi, "I clearly told you that I will not go to "ComicFuture", please don't take my entry as a condition to win Mr. Shen's sympathy and recognition." I want to talk to Mr. Shen and show your sincerity. ”
Shang Haozhi laughed dryly and did not make a sound.
"Okay, I have nothing to do, and I brought you here, and then, what you can negotiate with Teacher Shen depends on your sincerity. Mr. Shen, I'll go back first, and if I have time, we'll talk separately. ”
"Well, we'll talk about it later."
Shen Xin nodded, with Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong here, he didn't have time to talk to Yan Fei.
When the elevator door was closed, Shen Xin returned home again.
"Let's sit down, we don't have anything at home, so let's just drink?" Shen Xin took out two cokes from the refrigerator and handed them to Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong.
Shen Xin put the pencil in the drawing book, and then sat on the single sofa.
Shang Haozhi was not polite, and after sitting down, he drank two sips of Coke and recovered some of his strength.
"Teacher Shen, I sincerely feel sorry for yesterday's incident, not only did I pull Yan Bian in, but you were also involved." Shang Haozhi sighed.
"Hmm." Shen Xin bowed slightly, "Mr. Shang deliberately ran over from Hongchuan, not just to apologize, right?" ”
"Ahem...... Shang Haozhi, after coughing dryly, chuckled in front of him, "Teacher Shen, have you ever thought about next year." ”
"Nope." Shen Xin said without thinking.
"Huh?"
Shang Haozhi was stunned.
The normal plot shouldn't be Shen Xin in front of him, expressing his worries about the future? On behalf of "ComicFuture", he sent an invitation to Shen Xin, and both parties took what they needed, and they were both happy.
The word "no" directly disrupted his script.
"I drew comics because I didn't have enough money. Now that I don't have financial pressure, I want to finish my studies. Also, even though I've been drawing manga for a year, I feel like I still need to improve my drawing skills. Shen Xin said seriously.
"Do you want to improve again?" Shang Haozhi's eyelids jumped twice.
The reason why "Y's" won the newcomer award is because of the plot on the one hand, and the painting skills on the other hand.
At least among cartoonists of the same age, few can compare to Shen Xin.
It's already at this level, and it needs to be improved?
Shang Haozhi touched his beard, "I think Mr. Shen, your painting skills are enough." ”
"Not enough." Shen Xin shook his head, "Moreover, my current painting style can draw too few types of comics." ”
"Huh? You mean, you're not going to draw romance comics anymore? Shang Haozhi was surprised.
"Why do I still draw romance comics?" Shen Xin looked puzzled.
"Nope."
Shen Xin's answer was a little different from Shang Haozhi's expectations.
"That's a shame. I thought your next book would be a romance manga. ComicFuture lacks high-quality romance comics. ”
"I've let you down." Shen Xin looked apologetic, "But it's not my intention to draw only one type of comic." So, it takes a while to get in touch. ”
"How long will it take?" Shang Haozhi asked.
"It should take half a year, right?"
In fact, Shen Xin is not very sure, after all, Ken Obata is very good at drawing, even with the comic capsule bonus, he still feels pressure.
Shang Haozhi frowned and hesitated.
Some cartoonists are good at drawing romance comics, but if you change the genre, you may not be able to eat it. In fact, there are indeed many cartoonists who have disappeared from everyone's field of vision because of the failure of transformation.
Wang Wenhong glanced at Shang Haozhi, understood the hesitation in his heart, and looked at Shen Xin anxiously.
Shang Haozhi was silent and undecided, whether Shen Xin and "ComicFuture" could reach a cooperation was just a matter of his thoughts.
Wang Wenhong rubbed his chin, looked past Shen Xin, and saw the picture book on the sofa, his eyes lit up.
"Mr. Shen, is that your drawing book?"
"Hmm. I was bored just now, so I drew a few pages. Shen Xin didn't expect Wang Wenhong to move his gaze here.
"Can I take a look?" Wang Wenhong asked.
"Because I wanted to change the style, I didn't draw very well." Shen Xin reminded.
"It's okay." Wang Wenhong hurriedly waved his hand, "Just take a little look." ”
Shen Xin felt that it didn't matter, it was just a sketch anyway, so he handed the album to Wang Wenhong casually.
Shang Haozhi also leaned over, although these are just sketches, but the cartoonist's drawing skills can be reflected from the sketches.
When Wang Wenhong opened the first page, he saw a child, holding a sunspot with his thumb and forefinger, and putting it on the Go board.
"Teacher Shen, your drawing skills are good, but the way you hold the chess pieces is wrong. It should be the middle finger on top and the index finger on the bottom, clamping the pieces. Shang Haozhi reminded.
"Hmm." Shen Xin nodded in response.
He doesn't know how to play Go, he's just imitating "Chess Soul".
Wang Wenhong turned the next page, and a long-haired man used the technique Shang Haozhi just said to put a white piece on the chessboard, and at the same time, there seemed to be a momentum overflowing from the paper, which made people feel shocked.
But when I look closely at the painting, the momentum disappears again.
Wang Wenhong was about to turn the page, when he suddenly found Shang Haozhi's fingers pressing the drawing paper.
Editor-in-Chief ......
Shang Haozhi's eyes were bright, and his face showed a ruddy luster.
