Chapter 167: An Invitation (11/13)
After waking up Mahaku with three Baumkuchens, after Mahaku's explanation, Iida Ayano finally understood the ins and outs of the matter, and immediately said haha: "That...... I'll just say, how could a handsome guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes like you do such a dirty thing? Ha ha...... Ahaha...... But then again, it's really misleading that you're a boy living with Mashiro. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Then why don't you come and adopt Mashiro?" Ji Kong didn't have a good airway.
"Ahem! Actually, I'm looking for you today, and I'm on business! Ayano Iida hurriedly changed the topic: "Your comics have been approved by me!" β
"Oh."
Ji Kong responded.
"Oh what do you mean?!"
Iida Ayano was stunned for a moment, hearing this kind of news, shouldn't Ji Kong yell with joy, or even cry with joy?
"I just got it." Ji Kong said.
"Uh...... Aren't you surprised? Not feeling excited? Iida Ayano added: "Your comics, but in my hands have been drafted, although it has not been reviewed by the editor-in-chief, but the final review of the draft is also a sure thing." β
"Well, isn't that a matter of course?"
Ji Kong couldn't understand Ayano's psychology at all, after all, in his opinion, it was a matter of course for "One Piece" to be drafted, but he would be surprised by the draft.
ββ¦β¦β
Ayano Iida suddenly had the urge to smash the manuscript of the comic on Ji Kong's face, and then shout "My mother is not rare in your comics".
But she sadly found that whether it was out of her love for this comic or out of responsibility for her own performance, she had to sign this comic.
I endure!
Iida Ayano said to herself in her heart, and then said with a smile: "Okay, anyway, I will submit your "One Piece" to the editor-in-chief for review, and then I will also participate in the future newcomer awards, however, I still have a suggestion for your manga. β
"What advice?" Ji Kong asked.
"Can you change the style a little bit?" Iida Ayano couldn't help but complain: "I don't expect your painting style to be as delicate and beautiful as Mabai, but at least don't be like now, no one is human, no ghost is not a ghost!" β
"The style of paintingβ"
Ji Kong smashed his mouth, indeed, the question of painting style is indeed a major slot of "One Piece", in the previous life, this was probably the most hacked point of "One Piece".
However, this kind of sound probably only existed in the early days of the "One Piece" serial, and in the middle and late stages, this voice seems to have magically disappeared.
The reason for this is that the painting style in the middle and late stages of "One Piece" is much more mature than in the early stage!
Ji Kong compared the styles of the two in his mind, and found that in the middle and late stages, he obviously put more effort into the muscle lines and textures of the characters, which made the characters look more powerful.
On the other hand, in the early stage, the character's body is basically bare, except for the joints, it is difficult to see other textures, especially when Luffy uses his special move, the elongated arm is like a soft plasticine, which is like the later stage, the arm full of strength, just like a spring full of strength.
"Okay, then I'll change these words and send them to you."
Ji Kong decided to change the art style of "One Piece" in the early stage a little, although it will give him a lot more work, but it is also worth it in order to make "One Piece" more popular in the early stage.
And hearing that Ji Kong agreed so cheerfully, Iida Ayano was surprised, but also very happy, "Then I'll wait for your submission again, and tell Mahaku, I'm very satisfied with the novel she wants to adapt, let her rest assured to draw, and when your latest submission comes, I'll submit you and Mahaku's manga to the editor-in-chief for review." β
"Okay."
Ji Kong nodded and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Kong saw that the time was almost half past eight, so he was ready to call Zhenbai and go out for breakfast together.
However, the three baumkuchen cakes just now obviously filled the real white belly, so she refused Ji Kong's invitation and stayed at home alone to continue drawing comics.
Ji Kong settled for breakfast at a nearby Chinese breakfast restaurant and ate a total of 15 xiao long bao and a large bowl of porridge.
He now has a lot of work every day, so the amount of food has also increased, but fortunately, he has enough exercise, so he doesn't have to worry about gaining weight for the time being.
However, when he returned to the door and was about to open the door to enter, he was suddenly stopped by a postman.
"Please ask if you are Mr. Ji Kong, here is a letter from yours, please check it."
The postman handed a wrapped piece of thick stationery to Ji Kong.
"Oh, okay."
Ji Kong took the letter and signed it, but he had some doubts in his heart - who would send him a letter?
In the highly developed science now, if it is an ordinary contact, everyone has long used mobile phones or QQ and other tools instead, even if you want to mail something, it is also a package.
Letter-like items like this are very rare.
Ji Kong looked at the sender's address: Yuanyue Academy? What is this place?
The envelope was opened, and inside was an invitation letter, as well as a short note.
The invitation was put aside first, Ji Kong opened the short note folded in half, glanced at it, and found that it was his grandfather who asked him to write it for him.
As for the content, it is for him to participate in a food contest as a judge on Wednesday of the following week.
And that invitation letter is obviously his identity as a reviewer.
"What's going on here?"
For his grandfather's request, Ji Kong was simply confused by the second monk, so decent, why did he let him participate in any food competition? Was it to get him used to the life of high society?
Of course, no matter how he thinks about it, his grandfather, who is the Eight Pillars of Huaxia, will not do such a boring thing.
But although he can't figure it out, Ji Kong won't be too resistant to this kind of thing, after all, he is more or less a foodie, since he can eat good things for free, why not go?
And in this kind of trivial matter, he felt that he didn't need to face his grandfather at all, anyway, this can be regarded as a filial piety for the owner of the original body!

To add, the 24-hour first order mentioned by cabbage refers to the 24 hours from 12 noon today to 12 noon tomorrow after the first chapter is published.
Therefore, although the first order is still a little far away, it is probably still a good fight...... (To be continued.) )
