Chapter 179 Tied for First Place

"Let's play a school newspaper. Congratulations to Gong Xueyi from Class 1302, sophomore, and Luoyang from Class 1401, freshman, for winning the first place in the first cartoon competition of the Department of Fine Arts of Tiandu University!"

"Let's play a school newspaper. Congratulations to Gong Xueyi from Class 1302, sophomore, and Luoyang from Class 1401, freshman, for winning the first place in the first cartoon competition of the Department of Fine Arts of Tiandu University!"

The campus cartoon competition that was held some time ago has finally come to a successful conclusion, and the final results are out.

Perhaps in order to show the momentum of all-round development of the campus, Tiandu University played the results of this cartoon competition three times in a row in the form of a school newspaper on the loudspeakers of the whole school.

The news that Luoyang and Gong Xueyi tied for first place in the cartoon competition was heard by students on campus at the first time.

"You're talking about the comic contest held by the Art Department a while ago, right?"

"As expected, in comic contests, as long as Gong Xueyi participates, she will definitely win first place without any suspense."

"But I'm curious, why did Luoyang, who wrote martial arts novels, also win first place, tied with Gong Xueyi?"

"Yeah, it's really strange. Isn't Luoyang a new martial arts master in Longguo? How can he draw comics?"

"I guess they just want to give Luoyang some honors. After all, this is just a small school competition."

"Not necessarily. Don't forget that Luoyang is from the Art Department, so it's normal for him to draw comics."

"Not at all Normal, it is obvious that the school is flattering Luoyang. He is a famous martial arts writer and a person who brings honor to the school, so the school gave him some benefits. "

"It's just a tacit understanding. Do you really think Luoyang can draw comics on par with Gong Xueyi?"

"It's not impossible. Luoyang is a student of the Department of Fine Arts. Since he dares to participate in the competition, his strength must be good."

"Hehe, you know, not every student in the Department of Fine Arts is Gong Xueyi's. Maybe Luoyang is good at writing martial arts, but when it comes to drawing comics, you'd better not make me laugh."

...

The results of the competition have triggered discussions among some students in the school.

The vast majority of people believe that this result is that the school gave Luoyang face and let him get the first place.

But there is no way, who let him be the youngest martial arts writer in Longguo, it is normal for the school to favor him so much.

Gong Xueyi, who had just finished class in the sophomore class 1302, also heard the broadcast of the school radio station on the loudspeaker three times. She was slightly stunned, and then smiled and shook her head.

"It's so boring. The school actually manipulated the results of the competition."

"That's right. Luoyang and Xueyi tied for first place. What a joke."

"This is too unfair. Is it just because he is a famous martial arts writer?"

"That's right. The school is too biased. They don't care about our Xueyi's opinion."

"Letting a martial arts writer tie with Xueyi for first place in the comics competition is simply disrespectful to Xueyi."

Several classmates around Gong Xueyi stood up for Gong Xueyi. Gong Xueyi is an excellent professional cartoonist. They naturally think that the school manipulated the results of the competition and favored Luoyang.

Gong Xueyi shook her head lightly and said lightly: "Forget it. Anyway, the purpose of participating in this competition has been achieved."

She didn't take this competition seriously. The purpose of participating in the competition was just to get those credits.

Besides, her entry was adapted from Luoyang's "Seven Weapons". Letting the other party get the title of first place with her was a benefit. It didn't matter.

"I'm the first?" Luoyang was a little surprised when he heard the result announced on the school radio.

He originally thought that after Gong Xueyi participated, he could only get the second place. Although "Five Centimeters per Second" is a classic, Gong Xueyi is a contracted cartoonist of Contemporary Comics after all.

But he didn't expect that he would be tied with Gong Xueyi in the end and won the first place in the comics competition, which was a pleasant surprise.

However, after successfully getting the credits, Luoyang didn't think about it anymore.

And just during the break, Luoyang received a strange call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Luoyang?"

Luoyang nodded: "Yes, who are you?"

He guessed in his heart which publishing house asked him to write a martial arts novel, because Luoyang had received similar calls many times.

"I am Hou Jinqiu, the editor-in-chief of the editorial department of Contemporary Comics. Mr. Luoyang, may I ask if the copyright of "Five Centimeters per Second" you participated in has been sold?"

It's not a publishing house, but Contemporary Comics?

Luoyang smiled and said, "No, I submitted the only manuscript to you."

This answer made Hou Jinqiu on the other side relieved: "In that case, can you give this comic to our Contemporary Comics to publish on the Internet? The royalties and commissions will be paid according to the standards of professional cartoonists."

The standards of professional cartoonists?

It seems that the other party is still very sincere.

Luoyang immediately agreed: "No problem."

Drawing comics is originally for credits, and it is quite a hobby. Luoyang naturally has no objection to Contemporary Comics' willingness to publish "Five Centimeters per Second".

"When can we sign the contract?" Hou Jinqiu asked.

"I'll give you my assistant's number and she can help me with the signing." Luoyang said with a smile.

"Okay, no problem. If you sign it today, tomorrow the comic will be recommended on the homepage of our contemporary comics community!"

After all, he is the youngest martial arts master in the Dragon Kingdom. It is not surprising that he has an assistant. Hou Jinqiu promised to promote it at the same time.

After hanging up the phone, the class break was almost over. After Luoyang sent Hua Qi's phone number to the other party, he continued his class.

————————

only……

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Luoyang always felt that in the following class, students would peek at him with strange eyes from time to time.

This made Luoyang a little confused. Could it be that he had something wrong with his face, or was it because he won the first place in the comic contest, so they were all surprised?

"Forget it, let's continue with class."

Luoyang put aside his messy thoughts. Anyway, he had received too many looks in school and was already used to it.

Jingle bells... jingle bells... jingle bells...

Forty minutes later, the school bell rang, and just when Luoyang was packing his things to go home, Zhu Changhong, who was sitting not far from Luoyang, suddenly walked up to Luoyang.

"Old Zhu, what's the matter?" Luoyang raised his head and asked a little strangely.

"Let's go back to the dormitory together now." Zhu Changhong didn't say anything clearly, but gave Luoyang a wink.

Luoyang was even more surprised now. What kind of medicine was sold in this old pig gourd? What on earth was it not convenient for him to say in the classroom?

He smiled and did not refuse. After stuffing all the professional course textbooks under the table, he and Zhu Changhong returned to the dormitory.

…

"What's going on? Can we talk about it now?"

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Luoyang couldn't help but ask.

Zhu Changhong frowned and said, "It's not convenient to say this in the classroom just now, Luoyang, did you ever offend Li Qing?"

Li Qing?

Hearing this name, Luoyang was inexplicably struck by the point of laughter: "Is this person playing blind?"

Zhu Changhong said speechlessly: "It's all a mess. I mean Li Qing, the vice president of our student union at Tiandu University."

Of course Zhu Changhong didn't know what the blind monk was. After all, there was no lol in this world. However, after hearing Zhu Changhong's words, Luoyang felt even more strange: "What does this vice president of the student union have to do with me?"

"It seems that Li Qing's secret love for Gong Xueyi is true..." Zhu Changhong said thoughtfully.

"Damn it, why are you related to Gong Xueyi again?"

"My dear Mr. Luo, you don't usually go to the campus forum of our Tiandu University?"

Zhu Changhong curled his lips, then turned on the computer in the small living room. While logging into the Tiandu University campus forum, he said: "This guy Li Qing just posted a blackmail on you in our Tiandu University forum!"

"Posted to blackmail me?" Luoyang was stunned. No wonder there were always people peeking at him with weird eyes in class just now.

He quickly sat down in front of the computer and saw that a person with the ID name Li Qing had posted a long post in the Tiandu University campus forum, and the post had been pinned to the top by the forum administrator——

"Tiandu University Art Department Comic Contest, there was also a blatant shady act"!
