Hong Kong Comic Master

"All right!"

The rustling pen tip finally stopped moving. Li Wannian put the pen aside and stretched.

Seeing this, He Zhiwen hurried over.

What came into view were four tall and handsome guys of different figures standing on both sides, and a cute girl in the middle, and the name of this comic was written on the top.

"Boys Over Flowers?"

Seeing this name, He Zhiwen showed a trace of confusion.

Why such a name? A man like a flower?

In fact, this name is taken from the Japanese proverb that flowers are not as important as dumplings, that is, things that look good on the surface are not as important as the inner essence.

The prototype of this comic was serialized by Kamio Yoko in Shueisha's comic magazine "Margaret" from 1992 to 2004, and it has been the best-selling girl comic in Japan for many years.

Later, this comic was translated into Chinese and adapted into a TV series, with a more familiar name: "Meteor Garden"!

Speaking of "Meteor Garden", according to most people who have only watched the TV series or even haven't watched it, this is a Cinderella story between a silly and sweet girl and several rich kids.

In fact, this is people's perception of the TV series, or in other words, it is the understanding of the screenwriter and director of the TV series about this comic.

In fact, a comic that can become the first girl comic in Japan is by no means such a simple work.

The comic story mainly tells: Shancai, who was born in poverty, entered Yingde College, an aristocratic college where the four major families train their descendants.

The heirs of the four major families are called F4, who used their privileges to bully others until they met Shancai, which changed them.

The story sounds nothing special, but what happened in Yingde College implies various chaos in capitalist society and criticizes it.

As the absolute protagonist of the comic, Shancai is not a silly and sweet image with nothing to lose, but a fighter against the oppression of capitalist society.

She always firmly believes in her beliefs, acts as herself, and can stand up in the face of social injustice. She is a very charming character.

Otherwise, how could she make several wealthy heirs like her?

But unfortunately, no TV series remade in any country can capture the true essence of the comics, resulting in such a good work that has stood the test of time being filmed into an idol drama that makes people complain.

For example, in He Zhiwen's eyes at this moment, this is a tacky idol comic.

Because what he sees now are only a few characters and a brief story outline. He who does not understand the whole picture cannot feel the charm of the comics itself.

However, although He Zhiwen is not very satisfied, this is after all drawn by Li Wannian. Due to Li Wannian's undefeated record for many years, He Zhiwen dare not refute it easily, but falls into deep thought.

This is drawn by the teacher, there must be a deep meaning that he cannot understand!

"How is it?"

Seeing that He Zhiwen has been thinking, Li Wannian asked in confusion.

"Not bad!"

"Do you feel that you are reluctant to say it?"

"No, no, but I may need to taste it carefully again!"

He Zhiwen waved his hand quickly.

It is very rare that the teacher is willing to spend time drawing comics. How can I be picky?

"In this case, this comic will be handed over to you. Let me tell you what you need to pay attention to!"

Then, Li Wannian pulled He Zhiwen to him again and told him in detail about the details of drawing this comic.

This time, under Li Wannian's narration, He Zhiwen gradually got the essence of this comic.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: It's worthy of being a teacher. A casual drawing is a wonderful comic. In comparison, I am too shallow.

I dared to question the teacher just now. It's really too self-deprecating!

Li Wannian didn't know He Zhiwen's rich psychological activities at this time.

After solving He Zhiwen's difficulties, because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Li Wannian took He Zhiwen with him for a long time.

At this time, Qiu Fulong, Niu Lao and others also finished their work at hand and chatted with He Zhiwen together.

"Along, your painting skills have improved recently! The "Pokemon" you draw is almost the same as the teacher's!"

"No, no, I'm still far behind!"

Hearing He Zhiwen's praise, Qiu Fulong scratched the back of his head with a silly smile.

Compared to the childish look when he first came, Qiu Fulong has grown a lot now, shed his childishness, and looks like an adult.

But when he spoke, he still exposed his youth.

But don't look at his youth, his painting skills are already very good. Now he is ghostwriting Li Wannian's "Pokemon", which can completely imitate Li Wannian's original style. Even the most picky readers can't tell the difference!

Therefore, although he is still an assistant, Li Wannian will give Qiu Fulong a part of the income from "Pokemon" every month.

Thanks to Qiu Fulong, Li Wannian's workload has been reduced again!

Among the several comics that Li Wannian is currently serializing, only "Dragon Ball" is drawn by him from beginning to end without anyone else's touch.

Other comics all have the participation of assistants to a greater or lesser extent.

Except for Pokemon, whose main artist is Qiu Fulong, Niu Lao is the artist of Parasyte, which is nearing the end. The first part of Gundam has just been completed, and then, Li Wannian is gone!

He only serializes one comic himself, which is basically a waste of time for Li Wannian, who draws very fast!

"Teacher, seeing that Parasyte and Gundam have both been completed, are you not going to start another comic? Or redraw Bleach?"

He Zhiwen quickly turned the conversation back to Li Wannian.

Although Dragon Ball is getting better and better now, in the hearts of the first batch of fans of the two-dimensional magazine, no comic can surpass Bleach!

In the year when Bleach was suspended, they thought about resuming publication of Bleach all the time.

He Zhiwen is no exception. In addition to being Li Wannian's assistant, he is also a die-hard fan of Bleach.

The happiest time for him as an assistant was when he was drawing the background for "Bleach". He often put his comic image among the onlookers.

In the first part of "Bleach" in this time and space, you can often see a man with square glasses in the background, that is He Zhiwen.

"Forget "Bleach", I don't have time to draw it, but you are right, I am indeed preparing to draw new comics!"

"What new comics?"

Even Li Wannian's assistants Qiu Fulong and Niu Lao didn't know about this, and they all looked at him curiously.

"Two comics with completely new themes!"
