After receiving the call from the editor, Chen Nan fell into the chair, and the whole person was in a trance for a long time, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

Chen Nan...... Chen Nan? Guo Pinyuan's anxious inquiry came from the phone, and Chen Nan replied in a tired voice: "I'm fine...... I just need to be alone and still. ”

"Hmm...... Don't worry too much about it, as a manga artist, this is also an essential level, and work hard to prepare for the next ......."

Before Guo Pinyuan's words were finished, Chen Nan had already hung up the phone.

"......" Guo Pinyuan sighed heavily in this regard, he also knew that what he just said was some nonsense, but as an editor, there really wasn't much he could do for her.

Come on, Chen Nan.

He could only silently support in his heart.

At this moment, Chen Nan, who put down the phone, shrank his legs and curled his whole body into the chair. She is a person who has been insecure since she was a child, so she always does not have any sense of expectation of others, she only believes in herself, believes in the things in this world, and can only be harvested through her own efforts.

But the cruel facts in front of her once again shattered her belief, the first word, the second word 7, the third word directly 15 outside, so far, has been hovering after 18, it is not an unpredictable result to be cut down, although before this Guo Pinyuan said that the chance of being beheaded is only 50%, but Chen Nan knows very well that he can hide from the first day of junior high school, but he can't pass the fifteenth, in this cruel comic circle, inferior products always have to be eliminated.

It's ridiculous......

What kind of attitude did you have at the beginning to reprimand Liang Yu for not being motivated to strive for the first place, why can't he even maintain his ranking when he is himself, is he really qualified to blame others?

She didn't understand what the mixed feelings that came to her heart at this moment were. Whether it is sadness, remorse, or disappointment, but these are not the main things, what makes Chen Nan feel the most frightened is that she deeply realizes that she lacks the talent for comics.

The rest may be made up for by acquired efforts. But if you don't have the talent for comics, then whether you are still suitable to go on the path that you have been insisting on is so strongly shaken.

Liang Yu......

Liang Yu...

Liang Yu.

Would it have been a different outcome if I had begged her to stay, or to leave with her?

Chen Nan, who doubted his decision like this and then regretted it, spontaneously felt a deep sense of self-loathing.

She looked at the empty studio, which seemed too small at the beginning, and there had been a discussion about whether to move to a larger building. But now, it seems extremely empty. Chen Nan hugged his legs tightly and shrank into his small shell.

I don't know how long it was, but the sound of a call came from the phone.

Chen Nan didn't want to pick it up, but after glancing at the number, it was Chen Xiongye calling, and finally thought about it and picked it up.

Chen Xiongye used to be an assistant on Chen Nan's side in the past, although it was only for a short time. But the other party has always called Chen Nan a teacher, and this teacher is not the title-like name that everyone is used to. It's almost the meaning of master and apprentice, and when Chen Nan first entered the hospital, and when the chess soul ended, he came.

This time, he also called, and the reason was that Chen Nan had already guessed. But it seems that in order to show his strong side in front of others, Chen Nan deliberately made a cold and confident tone.

"Teacher Chen Nan. I've heard about the new work, and it's a shame to be honest......"

"Well, maybe I'm a little impatient, so I'm in a hurry to start writing without thinking about it, style. There are a lot of things in the plot that haven't been sorted out.,So it's reasonable to have such a result now.,Next time...... I'll be more cautious about how to prepare. ”

A high-sounding right, Chen Nan suddenly discovered that he was no longer the ignorant girl who only knew how to move forward.

At least I couldn't have been so sleek.

After that, Chen Nan couldn't remember what he talked about, maybe he felt that the conversation here was not high, Chen Xiongye found an excuse and hung up the phone, and said, "If the teacher has any trouble, you might as well talk to me." ”

"Thank you, I'm fine."

Chen Nan, who hung up the phone, was stunned for a while, she felt a little ridiculous.

It won't work.

You have to draw something, Chen Nan.

Haven't you survived so many painful things and countless setbacks in the past, and it would be too despicable to think about who will comfort you or help you now.

Chen Nan took a deep breath and went to the desk to pick up the pen, but in the face of the white paper, her mind was blank.

Draw something, draw fast, draw quickly! What's the matter, is this level no longer good, do you want to give up, is there only so much of your consciousness, or do you think that someone will come to pity you?

For some reason, Chen Nan's mind suddenly remembered the past self who was locked up in the studio and could only paint all day long, and his mind was full of his father's harsh voice.

“！”

Dididi, the phone rang again.

When Chen Nan came back to his senses, he was already in a cold sweat all over his body.

Somewhat weakly, she took her phone and looked at it, and this time, all she received was a text message.

She frowned at the name of the communication, because the other party had never made a good impression on her, on the contrary, the characteristics of arrogance and arrogance were impressive. But he kept his number, perhaps because he subconsciously recognized his talent.

Although I don't really want to admit it.

Chen Nan remembered that when she went to the editorial department to discuss serialization with Guo Pinyuan, he rushed over to sing the praise, such a person, but now he still dares to text over with a shy face-

"Teacher Chen Nan, I think the previous cartoon has fully illustrated the problem, people have a variety of talents, the key is whether it is useful, whether it can be used to the fullest, if you blindly reluctantly or can't find your own positioning, it will produce such a regrettable result. I have a very interesting script in my hand, and I'm looking for a manga artist with great talent and drawing skills to work with, and I plan to become the No. 1 fantasy magazine together, I don't know if you're interested in this, if so, please reply to this number, if not, I didn't say it (laughs). ”

Although "......" was just a piece of text, Chen Nan could also associate the man's expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Are you kidding! Who wants to be with a guy like you who looks down on people......

In a fit of rage, she wanted to delete the text message, and even delete the other party's business card, but she couldn't press her finger on the top of the delete button.

The sentence that reached the top of fantasy magazine made her hesitate and change her mind. (To be continued.) )
