Dad's comic life

Chapter 18 Warm-up

night

"Well, okay, I understand, try my best." Qian Tong sat at the desk with a cup of espresso, found a magazine from the stack of books, and found the book "Your Name" from the catalog Name, scratched the back of his head in distress.

In this era when the comics industry is developed, in addition to professions such as film critics and gourmets, there is also a comics critic.

The so-called comics critics are those who comment on comics and rate comics in the media.

Qian Tong is a famous comic critic.

His main job is to focus on the comics, giving a brief explanation of the plot on his Weibo, official account, etc., and then making a relatively professional evaluation and a certain depth of interpretation to facilitate some readers to follow it or not. This comic work.

And just now he received a call from his college classmate.

Let him give a better review of a comic.

However, Qian Tong felt a little embarrassed when he looked at this magazine.

He also knew Bika Comics, and he had made certain comments on several of the works in these issues.

Of course, not a positive one, but a negative one.

In his opinion, this comic was considered useless after being poached, and now he was asked to evaluate the comics in it. It always felt like a waste of money.

The key is...he hasn't eaten it yet.

"Forget it, just find two random points and write one or two sentences to intersperse in this issue's works." He sat on the chair, took a sip of coffee, and then flipped through the book. comics.

Well, it started out as a very ordinary plot, probably a plot about childhood sweethearts who don’t know each other, right? From this point you can see how cliched the plot of this work is, but the painting style and storyboarding are perfect.

So he picked up the keyboard and started typing quickly - the painting style was beautiful, and every shot was a wallpaper.

However, after watching the back part, the plot began to unfold slowly, and Qian Tong's heart was quickly captured. He couldn't help but get into the rhythm, and slowly followed the plot.

Um? What does it mean? Rub your breasts? It's a bit colorful.

Why did he become the male protagonist? The monkey actually stole the peach to himself? interesting.

Oh, men and women exchange souls. It's quite novel. I haven't seen it before...

This author is interesting.

The episode of "Your Name" passed in the blink of an eye. As the hero and heroine discovered that something was wrong, the scene finally settled on the storyboard of the hero and heroine saying "Swap!!" in unison.

It wasn't until here that Qian Tong calmed down, and then looked at the name of the author of this work, the porter... the cartoonist he didn't recognize.

But...this is definitely not a newbie!

The rhythm is tight, the reversal is novel, the painting skills are gorgeous, and the storyboards are beautiful.

Even if this thing is sent to the five major middle schools to compete with those great gods once, it should be enough, right? Why stay at a half-dead comic company like Bika Comics?

So is it possible that the porter went to Bika because he had something to hide?

Is there any inside story to be mined here? And you must know this classmate of yours, right? Should I take the opportunity to ask the other party for their contact information?

He just kept thinking and thinking. After a long time, he lowered his head and looked at the computer screen. The comment he originally planned to write down must have been rewritten.

………………

However, Hao Ren and the others didn't know about those readers' comments.

After dinner and watching TV in the evening, Hao Ren played with the little girl for a while, then quietly walked out of the room and returned to Sun Jiali's room.

Seeing Hao Ren walk in and lock the door, Sun Jiali asked casually: "Are you asleep?"

"Yes, I fell asleep." Hao Ren nodded and started to make the floor.

He was used to it anyway during this time.

Sun Jiali smiled on the bed and said jokingly: "This girl is really heartless. I took care of her for five years, but as soon as you came back, you pestered you every day. Instead, I became an outsider."

Listen, these words are so bitter.

Hao Ren laughed secretly in his heart, and then said: "No way, didn't Lu Xun say that my daughter was my father's lover in his previous life?"

However, he seemed to have thought of something, and then asked: "Speaking of which, I heard that you seem to have some first-day sales for doing this. The first-day sales this time should not be good, right?"

After all, he had seen the Bika comics sold in the bookstore, and they were obviously much smaller than others.

Even if he used some small tricks and sold some, it was still a drop in the bucket at best.

"Hmm..." Sun Jiali nodded silently when Hao Ren mentioned this question.

Is it more than just poor sales? Sales also dropped a bit again.

However, this has nothing to do with Hao Ren's comics.

It's entirely because the first few issues of the comic drove readers away.

However, it should pick up over time.

After all, reading takes time. Maybe it will explode later?

There have been some cases in the current market. Some comics had a bad reputation at the beginning. Who knew that things would turn around later and the reputation would ferment, suddenly boosting the comic sales of the entire magazine.

Although such examples are rare.

However, she believed Hao Ren's Your Name.

And for a comic company that has been in business for so many years, there will definitely be some trolls working with comic critics.

There were no anime reviewers in the previous issues simply because those comics were not worth the effort.

However, your name is different. Sun Jiali is very confident about this work!

"So you can rest assured." Sun Jiali said with a smile.

"Really?" After hearing what Sun Jiali said, Hao Ren nodded, "That's good."

Since his child's mother has this confidence, he can rest assured.

At this moment, his mobile phone suddenly vibrated. It turned out to be a message from Zhao Xi, whom he had met before.

Hao Ren was a little confused. Why did the other party send a message at this time?

Could it be... greedy for his body?

Opening the text message, it turned out to be a congratulatory message from Zhao Xi, congratulating him on the release of his comics, and also saying that he drew very beautifully.

Looking at this text message, Hao Ren smiled and replied with a thank you.

"Did you turn off the lights?" Hao Ren looked at Sun Jiali on the bed and asked with his hand on the switch of the desk lamp.

"Yeah." Sun Jiali nodded, then hesitated for a moment and looked at Hao Ren and asked, "Um... do you want to sleep on the bed? I'll sleep on the floor."

"No need." Hao Ren waved his hand: "How can I sleep peacefully on the bed while watching a woman sleeping on the floor?"

If you want to sleep... you should sleep together.

Of course, Hao Ren only said this silently in his heart and didn't say it out loud.

He still had a long way to go to break through Sun Jiali's psychological defenses.
