Chapter 13 Mistake
"Dreamer" magazine has been very busy recently.
The writers they signed before were all publishing on a monthly basis, but now that "Dreamer" has been revised, all contracts have to be re-signed, and the workload of editors has also increased.
Wang Wenhong not only has to worry about work, but at the same time, he also has another worry - he saw the "Love Equation" drawn by Shen Xin.
Originally, he shouldn't have paid attention to Shen Xin's cartoons, but that goddamn one actually used his real name.
When he saw the new issue of "Weekly New World", he was attracted by the word "Shen Xin". He thought he could watch a joke, but in the end, "Equation of Love" surprised him.
I really missed it.
Now that I think about "The Witch" carefully, I have no impression at all, I just feel that the plot is quite clichéd.
But this "Love Equation" is completely different. If you only look at the storyboard, it is much better than Chen Zijiao. Even the clichés of the plot that he criticized the most are not seen in this book.
The story is about a pair of high school students who had a crush on each other before graduating from high school.
First, there was an incident of losing fat ci in the school, and the heroine was also implicated. The male protagonist secretly investigated, but was mistaken for the thief who stole the fat ci. At this time, the heroine also misunderstood the male protagonist.
During the graduation tour, the good friend secretly helped the male lead, and the two sides reconciled, but then another misunderstanding occurred, which made the atmosphere very awkward. But because of this misunderstanding, the two had more contacts.
In the end, at the graduation ceremony, the hero expressed his heart anonymously in front of all the teachers and students in the school, but in the end, he told everyone that this was just a made-up story, just to let everyone cherish their feelings.
In this way, the two young people who were deceiving each other in their hearts did not have the courage to stand in front of each other and confess.
In the last two pages, the two people meet again after four years, look at each other and smile, and all the emotions are contained in it.
How many truths are told through stories?
If the two of them had been more courageous at that time, maybe they would have been together one day earlier.
The story has an open ending, and the relationship between them is not revealed, but the fate of the two is already closely linked.
After reading it, people feel that there is still more to say, but there is a trace of tenderness in their hearts.
The shyness of the girl and the indecision of the boy are all accurately expressed by Shen Xin through the storyboard and delicate painting.
There are also fat cis and louches throughout the story, but there are not many scenes, which can be regarded as adding flavor to the whole manga.
If this comic was completed by Shen Xin independently, then his potential is no less than that of Chen Zijiao.
No, compared with Shen Xin, Chen Zijiao's only advantage is a more gorgeous painter, especially in color painting.
Wang Wenhong sighed secretly, picked up the file package containing the latest issue of "Weekly New World", and was about to go to Chen Zijiao's studio to collect the manuscripts, but the female editor sitting next to him secretly stopped Wang Wenhong.
"Hey, Brother Wang, have you read the latest issue of "New World"? There is a nice short story in it. The author's name is Shen Xin, which should be his real name. Well, it looks familiar."
"I haven't read it, I'm not familiar with it, I don't know."
Wang Wenhong glanced at the female editor angrily, is it familiar to you? You were there at that fan exhibition. At that time, I asked you to pick it up, but I was not happy... Forget it, let’s not talk about it, I’m depressed.
Wang Wenhong hurriedly left the editing room, took the subway, and came to Chen Zijiao's studio.
Knocking on the door, a gust of cool air rushed over his face, refreshing him for a while.
"Brother Wang, please come in." A middle-aged man with round thick lenses saw Wang Wenhong and hurriedly greeted him.
This person is an assistant that Wang Wenhong deliberately recruited for Chen Zijiao. He is not very good at drawing backgrounds, but he is very good at blackening, whitening, and effect lines.
Has a very good level.
Wang Wenhong nodded and walked straight into the room.
This is a set of four bedrooms and two living rooms, and the workbenches of the three assistants are placed in the living room. Chen Zijiao's office is in the study.
Wang Wenhong pushed open the study, and Chen Zijiao was standing in front of the mirror by the wall, arranging the floral shirt on his body.
Noticing Wang Wenhong pushing the door in, Chen Zijiao turned around with a smile on his face.
"Long time no see, Brother Wang."
"How about the manuscript?" Wang Wenhong asked.
"The first episode has been completed, and the second episode is under production." Chen Zijiao straightened his collar with a slight smile on his face.
Wang Wenhong heaved a sigh of relief.
The first chapter is the color page, and it is also the part that takes the longest time. After Chen Zijiao finished the first chapter, Wang Wenhong's pressure was much less.
Chen Zijiao picked up an envelope on the table and handed it to Wang Wenhong, "Brother Wang, first check the quality of the coloring pages."
"I recognized you immediately because of the cover you painted, so the quality of the coloring pages must be fine, right?" Wang Wenhong took out the manuscript, glanced over the manuscript, and his eyes were immediately attracted .
Chen Zijiao's obsession with color is like his pursuit of clothes. He uses a lot of strong colors in his sketches, and dips the watercolor pen into the white of the advertisement and paints it on the highlights, creating a sense of luxury visually.
From the composition of the entire page to the small folds of the character's clothing, all the details seem to have been calculated by Chen Zijiao.
Because Wang Wenhong has seen the name before, so he has a general understanding of the following storyboard. However, when he saw the storyboard of the original manuscript, he found that there were a lot of changes, and even a full page appeared.
"Did you change the storyboard?"
"That's right, I did change it, what's the effect?" Chen Zijiao asked.
"The impact is stronger... the other storyboards are also good." Wang Wenhong flipped through the storyboards, feeling excited.
Although Shen Xin is also good, from the current point of view, Chen Zijiao is obviously better.
Chen Zijiao, and Su Han...the two are geniuses in their respective fields, and their cooperation is simply incomprehensible among their peers.
The corners of Chen Zijiao's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a look of pride in his eyes, "By the way, how is the 'treasure' that Yan Bian picked up now?"
"It's okay, he's better than ordinary rookies, but not as good as you. I compared your manuscript with his, and I think your manuscript is better." Wang Wenhong touched the file bag, the newly released "New "World", you don't need to take it out, let Chen Zijiao read it?
"Of course, I am destined to change the history of "Dreamer"." Chen Zijiao chuckled.
Wang Wenhong just wanted to remind Chen Zijiao not to be too proud, but then he thought again, this comic is a collaboration between Su Han and Chen Zijiao, maybe it can really reach a very high level, um, and even have a chance to win the title of "Rookie King" .
Before the press release, Wang Wenhong had already started fantasizing about the future.
...
At the same time, in an apartment in Hongchuan City, a teenager squatting on a swivel chair picked up a G-pen and sketched a line draft on the manuscript paper.
The mobile phone placed on the table suddenly rang, and the G-pen in the boy's hand stopped, and after a little thought, he pressed the hands-free button.
"Hey, Teacher Ye, the first chapter will be published next week. Are the manuscripts for the first three chapters ready?"
"En." The boy lowered his head and continued to draw the manuscript.
"Ms. Ye, please be sure to win the next 'Rookie King'."
The young man stopped his pen, because he was using too much force, the nib of the G pen diverged to both sides, and after a long thought, he said: "It's boring, I don't want to get some 'newcomer king'. I just want to see more interesting comics , Huaxia's comics shouldn't be so boring."
"Ms. Ye still speaks so casually."
casual?
The young man surnamed Ye raised his head, meditated for a while, put on noise-canceling earplugs, and continued to paint with his head down.
"Hey, teacher, didn't I tell you not to wear noise-canceling earplugs when talking on the phone with others?"
The assistant behind him noticed the editor's loud questioning from the mobile phone, but the boy didn't answer, so he turned his head quickly and saw the boy put on earplugs.
This teacher... not only speaks casually, but also does things without consideration for others.
The assistant sighed helplessly.
