Chapter 6 Kicks Off the Prologue
After discovering that he also had the ability to be a cartoonist, Gu Jiaming tried to draw a word "Pirate Kid", but after the finished product in the cartoonist's assistant came out, he compared it and found that the same fourth word was completely different.
In this way, he had to draw a word with the cartoonist's assistant, and the plan to speed up the progress was in vain, so he could only accept the reality and dispel the idea.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for the press fee, and after Gu Jiaming woke up in the morning, he basically looked at his mobile phone every five minutes, for fear of missing the bank's notification text message, and he didn't have the heart to code. When it was more than eleven o'clock at noon, the mobile phone finally rang with a text message mentioning the tone, and Gu Jiaming, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately took the mobile phone, opened it and took a look, and sure enough, it was a notice from the bank.
"2800 whole pieces! Aha! ”
After Gu Jiaming saw the numbers above, he instantly laughed, in the past, he worked hard to code words, and in a month, it was only about a thousand more than this number, but now he has almost done nothing, and he has an income of 2800, which is just the beginning. When his attributes improve, the quality of the comics he produces increases, and the manuscript fee will naturally rise with the tide, let alone seven or eight hundred and one pages, thousands of dollars a page is not a thing.
After the excitement, Gu Jiaming opened the Cairo app and boarded the cartoonist's assistant, only to find that there were new changes here, and several information windows popped up in a row, waiting for him to check it.
"Complete the hidden quest and get a Master Card!"
"The store shopping feature has been unlocked, please check it out for yourself."
"Earn 100 XP for the title."
"Unlock a new theme: love."
"New Mission: Please participate in a comic contest and win the championship, Reward: Unknown."
These four pieces of information are equivalent to opening a new door for Gu Jiaming, and he realized that this app also has a system task, but it has not been displayed before, probably because he completed the hidden task this time, so the task system was officially unlocked.
But when you think about it, a system without tasks always feels weird, which makes people feel much more comfortable. There are tasks and rewards, and I don't know anything else, but Gu Jiaming thought that there would definitely be experience points, but if you get experience points by drawing comics to improve your attributes, you have to draw them until the next year.
As for the master card, Gu Jiaming searched through all the places and couldn't find it, which made him a little disappointed. However, the newly unlocked store shopping gave him some surprises, and there are only two things that can be purchased now, one is to discover the data, and the other is to discover the stage. It's just that the price is too high, and seeing the few zeros behind it made Gu Jiaming dispel the idea of trying, the manuscript fee of two thousand eight is not enough to see at all, I forgot to say, you have to charge your own money to buy it, soft sister coins!
Put the 100 experience points into the workload and painting power in the ratio of seven to three.,The two attributes instantly rose a lot.,There were two of them with +3 explosions.,So it became a workload of 36.,Painting power 19.,Plot 5.,Character 5.、Personality 5.。 The three attributes in the back Gu Jiaming haven't found a way to improve for the time being, and his experience points can't be invested. Despite this, after this 100 years of experience, both the speed of drawing comics and the finished product have improved significantly, at least now it takes three days to draw "Pirate Kid", but the quality cannot be generalized.
In addition to that, there are new themes and missions to unlock. The theme Gu Jiaming doesn't care much about it now, because his mind is on "Pirate Kid", and he can't paint new works for the time being. The important thing is that the new mission, if you can complete it, maybe you can gain a lot of experience and make another significant improvement.
It's just that this comic contest ......
To be honest, although Gu Jiaming can be called a cartoonist now, he still doesn't know much about the comic industry, and he doesn't know anything about competitions or anything. It's an online article.,From time to time, some essay contests will be released from time to time.,This is very easy to find.,It's easy to participate.。 For comics, he rummaged through the official website of Penguin Comics, but he didn't find any hints for soliciting papers.
It doesn't matter, just ask if you don't understand, now the Internet is so developed, many questions can be answered by searching on the Internet, although sometimes the results are very unreliable.
Soon, Gu Jiaming found the answer he wanted, there are still many awards for comics in this world, and there is even an award for editorial comics under the Pulitzer Prize.
However, Gu Jiaming is mainly aiming at domestic awards, not to mention those in Sakura Province, the competition is too big and too fierce, and he will only bring humiliation to participate at his current level. However, there are two inland awards that can be considered, namely the Golden Dragon Award and the Golden Monkey Award. These two have not been established for a long time, and although they are quite influential in the hinterland, they are still a little unsightly in front of those awards in Sakura Province. This is not to say that the manga in the inland is not as good as the cherry blossom province, but because of some policy problems, the development direction of the two sides is slightly different. You know, as early as the forties and fifties, the inland was popular with the world's unique comic strips, which were not only an important extracurricular reading material for teenagers, but also an important content of cultural entertainment for many adults.
During the 60s, it produced masterpieces like "Havoc in Heaven", which made famous at home and abroad, and that kind of classic has not been copied until now. Unfortunately, even in the most glorious period, no one set up an award for animation, and for some historical reasons, the manga in the interior soon ushered in a period of depression, and only in recent years has there been some signs of recovery.
The award that Gu Jiaming wants to participate in is the Golden Dragon Award, one of the two awards in the mainland, without him, this award has cooperation with the Penguin Group, the parent company of Penguin Comics, to which Gu Jiaming belongs, and if you participate, you are likely to get some preferential treatment.
It's just that you want to take "Pirate Kid" to participate in the selection? Gu Jiaming was a little hesitant. This work is really not excellent, although there is a setting that makes people shine, but it is nothing more than that. Among the comics that are now prevalent in the outback, "Pirate Kid" is not yet ranked.
In this case, if you want to complete this task, you will have to start a new work, but it will take a lot of time. A complete and excellent story is not something that can be completed in a while, but Gu Jiaming wants to complete this task as soon as possible, no one urges him, but the ambition in his heart and the temptation of interests force him to speed up his pace.
It didn't take long for Gu Jiaming to have a solution, because he happened to see the poster of "Havoc in Heaven" on the computer!
