Chapter 21: Frustration

The next day, Lin Hao habitually got up early to go out for a workout, and then stopped by to have an early breakfast.

When she got home, Zhao Jing had just gotten up.

is still dressed in pajamas and slippers, and it doesn't look like I'm in good spirits, maybe I stayed up too late yesterday.

Seeing him, Zhao Jing said hello: "It's very early, I'll pack up and eat first, you remember to prepare everything." ”

The things in Zhao Jing's mouth are naturally pen and paper.

I can't use other colors or paints for the time being.

Lin Hao nodded.

He didn't expect that the other party would start teaching in the morning, and he was more active than himself.

It happened to be fine, so I went upstairs and took a shower first.

When she went downstairs, Zhao Jing was quickly eating instant noodles, and at the same time said vaguely: "Zhuo Shang's excellent paintings are worthy of the line." ”

I can understand the general meaning.

So Lin Hao came to the table to watch.

These are a few colored comic characters, the names are unknown, there are both men and women, they are well drawn, and the facial expressions are very detailed.

In a word...

No problem in terms of quality.

and those love comics that Lin Hao read in his previous life are not far behind.

Although Zhao Jing is not a very particular person in life, this woman does have skills in comics, and she can see it in her works.

After watching it here, Zhao Jing walked over slowly: "These are my previous works, and I have selected a few common basic characters in comics, which are not too difficult, how about it?" Not bad, right? ”

"It's good." Lin Hao said honestly.

"But do you really want to learn? Are you sure it's not a whim? Zhao Jing looked at him and asked suspiciously, "This will take time." ”

"Hmm."

Lin Hao replied simply.

"Okay, then I'll teach you the basic character depiction first, and I'll learn these later." Zhao Jing didn't say anything anymore.

Lin Hao nodded.

With Zhao Jing on the side to guide, he is not ambiguous when he gets started.

But there is a difference between what you think and what you paint.

After working for a while, looking at the paper in front of him, Lin Hao was not very satisfied.

I can only say that I draw like some characters, but it definitely has nothing to do with comics, and it's even crooked.

"It's very fast to get started, but the hand is not stable enough, and the dimension is not enough, try again?" Zhao Jing asked tentatively.

"Okay."

Lin Hao said and continued to draw.

It took about three hours of teaching.

The figures he painted were a little blurry, but they still couldn't be put on the table.

"Hmm... It's okay, the first day, it's already pretty good. ”

Zhao Jing nodded, didn't know what to think of, and suddenly got up: "Okay, I'll draw here today, and I'll take you to see the real thing." ”

"Physical?"

Hearing this, Lin Hao was puzzled.

The next moment.

He was pulled out by Zhao Jing and sat on the other party's little electric donkey, which is known as another way to attend classes.

Well...

The little electric donkey is still pink.

Someone was somewhat speechless.

Lin Hao felt that he had been cheated of money, because Zhao Jing brought him to Huilong Plaza.

Do you think it's a shopping mall?

Wrong.

Because a large-scale cosplay comic convention is being held in front of him.

A group of Cosers with different looks are taking pictures in front of them, playing the role of bizarre anime characters.

"Okay, here's it, let's go check it out." Zhao Jing said as she took off her helmet.

"That's money, too?" Lin Hao felt that fraud should be redefined, and he was a little ashamed of himself in front of this woman compared to the way to make money.

"It's called a sketching class, why doesn't it count?" Zhao Jing is reasonable.

"Shouldn't you bring a pen and paper with you for sketching?" 200 yuan an hour, Lin Hao felt that he had to refute it.

"Wrong, you must first have a concept of a character in your mind, and you can be clear and fluent when you write, which is called the unity of brain and hand."

It shouldn't be the first day of being a teacher, but it's the first thing to say.

"The concept of a character?"

The corners of Lin Hao's mouth twitched, looked ahead and said, "Do you mean cosplay?" ”

"Yes, my student, there is progress."

Zhao Jing applauded very falsely and said: "Let's go, there is not only cosplay here, but also a large-scale comic competition held inside." ”

Hearing that there was a comic competition, Lin Hao reluctantly nodded.

By the way, he also wanted to see how far the comics of this world had developed.

Walking into the venue on the first floor, it was quite lively inside.

Except for some Coser posing for posing, there are still quite a lot of viewers.

The comics are placed on movable square display tables, which are arranged in an irregular pattern throughout the first floor.

"You can read any comics here, and if you like any one, just vote for this one in the gap under the stage."

Zhao Jing said in front of him, handing him a piece of voting paper with a small hard surface and a chip.

The above should be with positioning, good statistics of votes and regions.

Lin Hao nodded and took it, walked to a display table, picked up a copy casually and flipped it up.

There are hundreds of copies of the same comic on each display stand, but there is no need to queue.

As for the content...

Let's be honest.

Lin Hao didn't have much interest.

Probably because the domineering president fell in love with me.

After turning a few pages, I can't read it.

Then he walked to the other display stand.

Well...

It's love and love again.

And then the next...

This one is finally a bit creative, about kung fu.

It's just that...

The plot is too thin, and the painting is not very good.

After looking around, Lin Hao gave up completely.

When she raised her head, she suddenly found that Zhao Jing had been standing in front of a display table for a long time, and she didn't read the comics, but looked at those people again.

Lin Hao didn't know what to think, so he walked over and took a copy and looked at it.

Time Teaches Me to Love You

Oh, this doesn't work, the name is exposed.

Seeing him coming, Zhao Jing's expression suddenly became nervous.

"No ideas."

After a while, Lin Hao shook his head and gave an evaluation.

He probably knows who the author of this comic is, but he is still in the circle of love, but he has changed the story to a similar one.

Aesthetic fatigue.

But the next moment, he voted for the small vote.

"You know everything?" Zhao Jing was stunned when she saw this, and then gritted her teeth and asked.

"You can guess." Lin Hao said slowly.

"You say... Am I not suitable for comics? ”

Zhao Jing suddenly laughed at herself and said: "Just those few stories over and over again, don't talk about you, I'm tired of myself." ”

"Bad evaluation."

Lin Hao didn't know how to comfort her.

At this time, a brightly dressed woman walked over and flipped through the comic book as well.

But after a moment, she raised her head and looked at Zhao Jing and shook her head and said, "Is it only this extent, it seems that you have no chance to win me this time." ”

"Guo Yuan, I have to remind you that there is no result yet." Zhao Jing also recognized the woman in front of her and said coldly.

"I admit that your painting skills are good, but is it necessary to wait for the result of this kind of plot?"

Guo Yuan couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "Zhao Jing, you have been in the comic industry for a few years, don't you even have this common sense?" ”

"I said it, but the results haven't come out yet." Zhao Jing's tone was still cold.

"The results will be announced in half an hour, I really don't know why your editor will give you a chance, do you know that you will lose?"

Guo Yuan looked at his watch, then looked up and said, "I advise you, go back early, there are too many people, and it's not good to lose too ugly." ”

"When did you manage it so wide?" Zhao Jing ignored her.

"Forget it, since you insist on watching it, I don't care."

Guo Yuan spread out his hand and smiled, then turned to leave.

After she left, Zhao Jing explained to herself: "She is the old man of the Qingcheng Comics Department, and our two families have always been rivals. ”

"Then why are you still here?" Lin Hao was puzzled when he heard this.

"You think I'm losing, too?" Zhao Jing had a struggling look on her face.

"Honestly?" Lin Hao asked.

Zhao Jing was stunned for a moment, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Forget it, I don't want to hear it, I just want to see the results, and I want to know how bad I am." ”

Lin Hao nodded.

Half an hour later, the big screen in the center of the venue suddenly lit up.

It shows the ranking of this manga contest, and it is overall, and the number of votes is slowly rolling from more to less.

.....

No. 1: Demon Continent (Huiteng Impression)

Author: Chang He

Votes: 228

2nd place: Sorcerer (Hakuchikaku)

Author: Lu Chen

Votes: 199

No. 3: Transforming into a man and a woman (Qingcheng Comics)

Author: Guo Yuan

Votes: 156

.....

When Zhao Jing saw the name of the third Guo Yuan, she couldn't help but change her complexion.

Lin Hao knew that this was the result, and he would not give up until he hit his head and broke the blood.

He didn't comfort the other either.

Instead, she continued to wait for her results to come out.

The big screen was playing continuously.

Soon, familiar names appeared.

.....

No. 36: Time Teaches Me to Love You (Baihe Editorial Department)

Author: Zhao Jing

Votes: 23

.....

"You say, if I don't want to be a cartoonist, wouldn't it be okay to become a teacher?" Zhao Jing looked at her ranking and suddenly asked.

"Yes."

Lin Hao nodded and said.

With this ranking, he felt that the other party really had no prospects.

But according to the current price of her as a teacher, she can definitely live well.

"You said yes? Shouldn't you comfort me at this time? Zhao Jing looked puzzled, is this guy a straight man?

"10 yuan a sentence, do you want to start now?"

I forced a wave of sketching, and the result was to come to see you compete, and it was almost afternoon.

Lin Hao calculated, a thousand yuan smaller.

Still have to comfort you?

It's so dark.

"You're really..."

Zhao Jing suddenly found that she couldn't find the words to describe the other party.

Looking at Lin Hao's serious appearance, it was obviously not a joke.

He really wanted to make money.

The originally uncomfortable mood has changed a little at this moment.

"Forget it, I won't worry about you." After a while, she waved her hand generously.

"Let's talk about it first, because I watched this game with you, and waited for the result, there was more time than the original, and I couldn't count it as 200 per hour."

Lin Hao did the math and said, "I'll pay you up to 150 per hour." ”

this number.

He lost a lot.

Zhao Jing was stunned when she heard this.

It's all this time, and this guy is still thinking about that bit of money.

Oh, my God.

Did you bring the wrong person?
