Hong Kong Comic Master

Chapter 174 Which comic

Since the interview, Li Wannian has gradually communicated more with the North.

The interview they published blocked Li Wannian's views on the future of Hong Kong Island, focusing on his personal interviews and reports on comics. It is obvious that Zeng Minzhi is also intentionally protecting Li Wannian.

In any case, this sudden interview did give Li Wannian more opportunities to contact, and finally let his opportunity start in advance.

Of course, this is destined to be a long plan, it is impossible to accomplish it in one go, and it is subject to various changes. Therefore, before this, Li Wannian still has to focus on his comics and comic magazines!

On this day, He Zhiwen, who had not appeared for a long time, found Li Wannian.

"Zhiwen, long time no see!"

Li Wannian was very excited to see his former assistant whom he had not seen for a long time, and even took the initiative to give He Zhiwen a hug.

As his earliest assistant, Li Wannian was naturally more friendly to He Zhiwen and Ma Rongcheng, not to mention that He Zhiwen was the grandson of Uncle He.

"Teacher, long time no see!"

However, compared to Li Wannian's excitement, He Zhiwen seemed to be a little worried.

"It's rare that you come to see me today, what's the matter?"

Li Wannian hugged He Zhiwen and sat down, then got straight to the point.

He Zhiwen looked a little shy, hesitated for a while, and then said shyly: "Teacher, "Hong Kong Island Love Story" is about to end!"

"Really? It's going to end so soon?"

Li Wannian was in a trance for a while, it turned out that it has been so long since the TV series "Hong Kong Island Love Story" was broadcast!

Compared to the dedication of the TV series, in terms of comics, except for the initial stage, Li Wannian made an outline for He Zhiwen, and the subsequent comics were basically drawn by He Zhiwen according to the script of the TV series.

Except for some suggestions on some key plots, Li Wannian basically let He Zhiwen be responsible alone.

Anyway, there is a ready-made TV series there, no matter how outrageous He Zhiwen is, the basic plot framework is there!

Therefore, although this comic still bears the name of Li Wannian, the person in charge has already become He Zhiwen.

However, readers do not seem to notice the difference. Although the popularity is not as high as when the TV series was broadcast, it still holds a large number of loyal fans.

"Yes! It has been a year and a half!"

He Zhiwen's mood is also very complicated when talking about this.

After all, it is the first comic he drew, and this comic has brought him a lot of money and fame.

Today, He Zhiwen is also a well-known cartoonist with a monthly income of tens of thousands. Although the copyright is not in his hands, he is already very satisfied.

After all, he is only 19 years old now!

However, now that the comic is about to end, He Zhiwen has obviously encountered a new problem, that is, what to do with the new comic?

"Hong Kong Love Story" has cultivated a large number of fans, and how to retain them has become a big problem for He Zhiwen. ♦♦  ♦♦

He Zhiwen is very self-aware. He knows very well that these fans are targeting Li Wannian, not himself.

He has also tried to draw new comics himself in the past six months, but his editor and friends all rejected it.

This made him very frustrated, and he had to seek help from Li Wannian.

"So, your preparations for the new comics are not going well?"

Li Wannian obviously saw He Zhiwen's difficulties, so he took the initiative to ask.

"Yeah!"

Sure enough, He Zhiwen nodded after listening.

"Tell me more about it!"

So, He Zhiwen then told Li Wannian in detail about the unfavorable situation of his preparations for the new comics.

Li Wannian thought for a moment after listening, and then spoke again: "In other words, you have no inspiration recently?"

"Well, teacher, do you think I am the material for drawing comics?"

"Why do you think so?"

Li Wannian didn't expect that this incident would be such a big blow to He Zhiwen?

A 19-year-old who can draw popular comics, not to mention genius, actually doubts whether he is the material for drawing comics?

What do you think of cartoonists who are still mediocre at a large age?

"Ma Rongcheng is not to be mentioned. His Chinese Hero is extremely popular now. Even Aoyouxiang, who has only studied with you for half a year, is so popular with his Oolong Courtyard. But I can't even draw a comic that truly belongs to me!"

Now, Li Wannian finally understood.

The reason why He Zhiwen has no confidence is mainly because he was hit by the people around him.

The key is that he has to compare with these two people when there are not many people he can compare with.

One of them is the "God of Hong Kong Comics" and the other is the "First of the Four Talents of Wanwan Comics". Even if they are placed in the history of the entire comics industry, they can be called geniuses.

It's just that they seem to be a little dimmed next to Li Wannian who has a plug-in.

Although He Zhiwen is quite capable, how can he compare with such a historical genius? Isn't that just asking for trouble?

"You don't have to be so self-deprecating. A 19-year-old famous cartoonist is already better than most people! You are different from the two of them. They are like Yang Guo and Linghu Chong, young geniuses, while you are more like Guo Jing, who needs to accumulate experience! As long as you persist and accumulate experience, your future achievements will not be worse than theirs!"

Li Wannian is good at comforting people. Although his metaphor is not very appropriate, it is easy to understand and it does play a comforting role in He Zhiwen.

"Then what should I do next? We can't lose those fans of Girls' Weekly!"

After He Zhiwen felt relieved, he asked Li Wannian again.

"How about this? I will draw another outline and you will be the main writer for me?"

After Li Wannian thought for a moment, he suggested again.

"Is it really okay? Will it be too much trouble for you, teacher?"

"What's the trouble? It's just a comic!"

Seeing Li Wannian's relaxed look, He Zhiwen was so depressed that he couldn't speak.

I had been thinking hard for half a year, but I couldn't draw a decent comic. When I came to Li Wannian, it was as cheap as the leeks that can be seen everywhere in the field.

Fortunately, He Zhiwen never thought about competing with Li Wannian, otherwise he would be depressed to death!

"Wait!"

As he spoke, Li Wannian got up and came to the workbench. He put aside the comic paper he was drawing on, got a new paper, and then fell into deep thought.

Of course, unlike what He Zhiwen thought, Li Wannian was not thinking about the comic plot or characters at this time, but which comic he should draw?

I can't help it, there are so many good comics in my mind that I can't even talk about it!

"Well, just choose this one!"

After thinking for about five minutes, Li Wannian finally made a decision and started writing!

I was locked up in a dark room and had no choice but to change it and repost it. I swear, I didn’t write anything!
