170. Chen Nan's efforts
The three of them discussed the future plot, and finally decided to proceed as originally planned.
"Yes, that's right, with your current situation, it's not so much about going step by step, it's better to be a little more innovative, a few more attempts, although there are also examples of a comic book in the comic industry that will last a lifetime, but as the editor-in-charge, I'm still optimistic about your future." After Guo Pinyuan finished this summary, he found that there was nothing to explain again, so he got up from the sofa and picked up his satchel: "I still have a few interviews with new authors in the afternoon, so I'll leave first." Chen Nan, Liang Yu, as for how to draw "Chess Soul", you two authors can privately add it up. ”
"Okay." Liang Yu and Chen Nan both stood up and sent Guo Pinyuan to the door.
"That's it, no need to send it, then I'll go."
After Guo Pinyuan left, Chen Nan began to draw comics again, while Liang Yu did some auxiliary work to blacken the outlets.
"Will the assistant come today?" Liang Yu raised his head from a pile of manuscripts, looked at Chen Nan, who was drawing the original manuscript over there, and asked.
Chen Nan casually took the Jiao ink and didn't look up: "Xiao Guo will come over at two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Tang will go to work elsewhere today, and he won't come until tomorrow." ”
Hearing Chen Nan say this, Liang Yu glanced at the still empty table in the studio, where Chen Xiongye was originally located: "Hasn't the new assistant been found yet?" ”
"Editor Guo brought two people here, but they didn't last a few days, in the end, it's too far here, if it takes more than 3 hours to go back and forth each time, people really don't want to." Chen Nan said.
"But is this okay, why don't we just move the studio to the city center, it's more convenient, and we don't have to worry about the money now." Liang Yu proposed after listening.
"There's no need for this," Chen Nan shook his head: "The rent here is cheap, there is nothing inconvenient except for transportation, as for work, it is actually enough to have two assistants to help deal with serialization, and there is no need to move places specifically in order to take another assistant." ”
Liang Yu heard her say this, so he didn't say anything more.
The atmosphere was a little dull for a while, only the sound of the brush rubbing on the manuscript paper, and Liang Yu found a topic at random.
"What has Chen Nan been doing lately?"
"Draw."
"Well, it's not just painting."
"Mu ......" Chen Nan seemed to think about it for a while, but obviously didn't come up with anything special: "It seems to be nothing." ”
"Huh? But Chen Nan, didn't you just say that the original manuscript was not so strenuous? ”
It's the first time Liang Yu has heard someone say something like this, I've been working, although she also knows that Chen Nan has a serious personality, but does she need to do this?
"It's not the original, I'm painting something other than the original, I've been practicing different painting styles lately, it's nothing, anyway, I like to draw, once I don't paint one day, I feel uncomfortable."
"What have you drawn, can you show me?" Liang Yu was aroused by her curiosity.
"It's nothing, just try to imitate a different style, and if you want to look at it, it's in the drawer of the bookcase in the room."
Liang Yu stood up in the direction of Chen Nan's finger and walked to the study closest to this studio, which is said to be a study, but it is actually a very small room separated by ten square meters, which was originally a bedroom, but after Chen Nan and the others moved in, they used the living room as a studio, and there was really no place to put things, so they changed this room to a storage room for stacking materials and sundries.
Liang Yu rummaged through it, but quickly found the sketches painted by Chen Nan.
is about the same as what Chen Nan said, the style of these drawings is very different from the style of "Chess Soul" that Chen Nan is painting now, and some of the characters in it can be seen at a glance, such as Wukong in "Dragon Pig", the stand-in messenger in "Jojo's Wonderful Adventure", and even some characters in game magazines, but there are still a considerable number of sketches that appear on Chen Nan's own original characters, or in other words, they are created from these imitations of her own style.
"Wow, Chen Nan, you're really good at painting, are these all your paintings?"
"Well, but it's not a big deal, it's all boring time to pass the time and draw things."
Although Chen Nan himself said it very modestly, Liang Yu noticed that the character scenes painted by Chen Nan were not as easy as she said, even if she had painted them, on the contrary, Chen Nan painted very carefully, and some even deliberately blacked out the dots, and wrote them full of settings, such as the front and back of the characters, and the expression portrait. For example, a manuscript like Liang Yu's hand was crammed into two large drawers.
This made Liang Yu really a little unsure of what to say, she thought that she had always insisted on the practice of painting, never slackened, and her painting skills had also improved, but now compared with Chen Nan, her own efforts in painting are not worth mentioning at all.
At this moment, Liang Yu's mobile phone rang, and the caller ID on the phone marked the identity of the caller.
Yuwen Hitomi. The titular president of the club.
Liang Yu didn't think about it and picked up the phone.
"Well, well, I'm on Chen Nan's side, huh, now?" Liang Yu couldn't help but ask, she glanced back at the direction of the living room studio: "Well, it's not that important, but ...... Oh, I see, okay, I'll be right here. ”
"Xiaoyu, what's the matter?" Chen Nan obviously heard the sound in the room here.
"Oh, just now Xiao Hitomi called me and told me that something happened to the club, and it seems that someone wants to talk to us about cooperation, and she didn't make it clear on the phone, she just asked me to go over ...... now."
"Well, it's okay, then since you have something to do, let's go first."
"Those blackened jobs ......" At the beginning, Liang Yu herself said that she wanted to help, but now she suddenly offered to leave, and she was also a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, let him get it when Xiao Guo comes, didn't I say it, don't you worry if it's a problem with the original manuscript." Chen Nan smiled and said.
Since the other party said so, Liang Yu didn't shirk it: "Okay, I'll go first." ”
"Hmm." Chen Nan waved his hand goodbye.
"Oh, that's right," Liang Yu ran to the door, put one foot into his shoe and seemed to remember something, and folded his head back: "This Saturday is Senior Sister Yuqing's birthday, and she asked me to invite you to come with me." ”
"Senior Sister Yuqing, is it the senior sister who sticks to you very tightly in your club?" Chen Nan asked.
Liang Yu scratched his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Hmm." ”
“……”
"Chen Nan?"
"yes, I see." She nodded and smiled, "Let's find a time to pick out a gift together before we go." ”
"yes, okay." Liang Yu also smiled and waved his hand, and then closed the door.
Bang dang.
When the door closed tightly, Chen Nan put down her hand, she supported her chin with one hand, and her eyes moved to the window.
"What if it was just the original manuscript......
