Chapter 22
Chapter 22 : Delayed sale
“Hey, should I get it so early, right?”
The city is just bright, and a figure of a man runs across the streets of Ninghai City. Feng Danyu was just pushed out of bed by his girlfriend, and his girlfriend asked him to go to the Deya Bookstore to buy the “Weekly Youth” released today.
Both of them like to watch “Detective Conan”, but it has always been very popular and often not available.
Feng Danyu ran to the door of the bookstore. The bookstore had just opened, and the proprietress took a broom to sweep the dust on the ground.
“Boss, has “Weekly Boys” arrived!”
Feng Danyu asked, and walked into the bookstore in a familiar way.
“Don’t look for it.” The proprietress stopped the broom and raised her head and shouted: “This week’s “Weekly Boys” will be postponed for one day. Come tomorrow!”
“Postponed? Don’t tease me, lady boss, I’ll look for it.”
Feng Danyu thought that the proprietress was joking, and looked around with disapproval, but actually did not see “Weekly Boys”, and couldn’t help but curse: “What is the Phoenix company doing? Why don’t you notify the delayed sale in advance!”
On the street, a black Audi just stopped, and the people in the car heard the scolding from the bookstore.
“The release of “Weekly Shonen” is delayed. Have you heard anything about Brother Hui?”
asked the man sitting in the back seat. His face was sharp-pointed and his expression was a little childish, but his every move always attracted the attention of others.
“It seems that there was a problem with the ninth episode of Detective Conan.” The assistant who was driving shook his head and said, “The author named He Xi retracted the manuscript. Maybe you were scared by Mach teacher!”
Teacher Mach, the man in the back seat is the author of the comic version of “Detective Sherlock”. His real name is Bei Feng, but he usually uses the pseudonym mach whether he is drawing comics or appearing on TV shows.
He is an idol cartoonist who has two roles and is highly praised by countless girls.
Ninghai TV station invited Bei Feng to participate in an interview in the morning. The content is exactly the comic news of “Sherlock”. Bei Feng remembered that today was the day when “Weekly Boys” was released. I was bored to buy a copy and have a look on the road, but he didn’t expect the release to be delayed.
“Are you scared?”
Bei Feng loosened the collar of his shirt, and laughed out: “I knew that he should give up the pamphlet. I finally got the right to adapt the comics of “The Detective Sherlock”. No matter how hard he struggles, it is useless.”
“But I painted better than him, and he was handsome longer than him. The gap is there. He can’t be afraid of it!”
Beifeng’s performance is triumphant, unlike a thirty-year-old adult. Although he wondered why Phoenix Company was willing to postpone the magazine’s release, he did not think about it.
In the eyes of the driving assistant, this idol cartoonist relies on his natural manga talents and his face has no shortage of food and clothing. Since his debut at the age of 20, his EQ has not increased but declined, but Longteng Corporation does not seem to mind at all. In fact, many professional cartoonists who adapt comics for novels have flaws, but Bei Feng is particularly prominent.
His thinking is active, and in a blink of an eye he remembered the holy war a while ago. I heard that many female readers posted for “Detective Conan”, although I don’t know how many of his female fans who are idols are? But certainly not one-fifth!
“Brother Hui, let’s drive.”
Thinking of this, Bei Feng waved his hand happily, and the Audi drove to the TV station.
In the morning, at Meng Huo’s house.
Alice lay silently at the entrance of the study, in a strange situation.
Li Qin, who just came out of the kitchen, was taken aback by her actions and almost knocked over the water glass on her hand.
“Alice, what are you doing?”
she asked strangely.
“I’m watching Meng Huo work, Sister Qin, please keep your voice down.” Alice turned her head and made a boo gesture, and then continued to sneak peek at the study.
In the study, Meng Huo was engrossed in drawing comics. He frowned and smiled. The brush in his hand slid quickly, and a picture was drawn in no time.
Alice was stunned. She had never seen such an efficient cartoonist, and it seemed that Meng Huo didn’t need a storyboard.
The study room is well lit, and the not-so-distant distance allows Alice to see clearly that Meng Huo draws completed manuscripts. She is shocked. Is there really a genius in this world?
If the author does not need to write a draft, Alice would not be surprised. But what is a comic? Basically, each comic has several areas, each area needs to be painted with different details, how to distribute the text dialogue, how to match the character’s actions and expressions to create a sense of movement, all of which need to be planned in advance.
However, Meng Huo omitted this process. There is no doubt that he planned the storyboard in his head. This ability is just like a computer!
“Sister Qin, Meng Huo is the second place in your county’s high school entrance examination, isn’t it?”
Alice had seen enough, she patted her clothes and stood up, then walked to the sofa and asked.
“Yes, I was taken aback when I heard it!” Li Qin turned on the TV, then turned down the volume and watched with Alice: “It would be nice if the kid worked hard earlier, as long as he worked hard, he could do anything. it is good.”
She defined Meng Huo’s change as hard work.
Alice doesn’t think so. She finally sees that the child she is responsible for is a complete genius. It’s normal for him to be ranked second in the senior high school entrance examination without a splitting lens. Alice even suspects Meng Huo. You can do other things well.
But she is still worried…
Meng Huo temporarily decided to change the plot of Episode Nine, and Ye Xiong made another exception for him to postpone the release of the magazine. Everyone took a risk.
“Can you do it well?”
Alice was up and down, UU reading www. Uukanshu.com She shook her head, and then focused on the TV. Anyway, she couldn’t help much, so it’s better to watch TV first to avoid the cranky thinking.
“Teacher Mach, many people now say that “Detective Sherlock” launched a single book at this time to suppress “Detective Conan”. Have you read that comic?”
A talk show on Ninghai TV is being shown on TV, but the people in it make Alice unhappy.
“I’ve heard of this comic, but I haven’t read it.” The man in the interview room answered as standard as a line: “I think everyone understands that the comic book requires a long preparation time. I have been drawing Sherlock for half a year. The release date was set a few months ago, how could it be suppressed?”
“Don’t believe the rumors credulously and be deceived by someone who is interested…”
“Pop.” The TV turned off with a snap, Li Qin held the remote control, turned his head and smiled at Alice: “Let’s stop watching TV and disturb the child’s work.”
Alice was taken aback for a moment.
“Sister Qin…”
She was a little moved. Although Li Qin didn’t seem to care about the comics, she still knew what was happening. She didn’t want Alice to see unhappy things.
“boom-”
Then there was a noise, and the door of the study opened.
“Alice.”
Meng Huo walked out, holding a stack of manuscripts in his hand: “I have finished drawing, you take it back to the company.”
“I prepared a character that can make girls scream!”
