Hong Kong Comic Master

"A cup of cappuccino, a cup of latte, Mr. Xu, what would you like to drink?"

Chen Weixian took Xu Jingchen to a coffee shop, invited him to sit down, and skillfully ordered two cups of coffee, and then asked Xu Jingchen.

This coffee shop is near Xingrong Company. Because of the beautiful environment and good coffee, Chen Weixian often invites people to meet here.

Besides, Xu Jingchen's home is in Kowloon, and it takes less than 10 minutes to drive here, so Chen Weixian drove directly here.

"I want latte too!"

When Xu Jingchen was in Li Wannian's studio, Zhong Chuhong, Lan Jieying and others often brought coffee to their assistants, so he gradually got used to drinking coffee.

Now, if he doesn't drink a cup of coffee in the morning, he can't even concentrate on painting all day.

"Okay, no problem. This is Li Zhongxing. You have already met him in the car just now. Let me introduce him to you. He is a screenwriter of Qilin Entertainment."

"Hello, Mr. Xu!"

"Hello, screenwriter Li!"

After saying hello, Xu Jingchen still did not speak, waiting for the other party to continue explaining.

"It's like this. I'm from Xingrong Company, but you may not know that I was the one who promoted the four-wheel drive car project!"

"Manager Chen is very sharp!"

Xu Jingchen said this from the bottom of his heart, because he knew that the comic "Four-wheel Drive Brothers" was drawn by his senior brother Sun Jiayu found by Xingrong Company.

This comic is quite popular in "Second Dimension Boys" and has even been adapted into an animation.

More importantly, this comic directly made the toy of the four-wheel drive car a favorite of children in Hong Kong Island.

At the same time, it also made Senior Brother Sun Jiayu a famous serial cartoonist in Hong Kong Island, and a particularly rich one.

Being able to use his identity as a downstream toy merchant to influence the creation of upstream comics, this Manager Chen is naturally very powerful!

"Hahaha, so, this time, I want to launch a new toy, so I want you to create a new comic about it!"

"Invite me?"

Xu Jingchen was surprised.

"That's right, Li Wannian recommended you to me!"

"The teacher recommended me?"

As he said that, Chen Weixian took out a notebook from his bag and handed it to Xu Jingchen.

"That's right, this is the outline written by Li Wannian, and I asked screenwriter Li to expand it into a script. Take a look, can you draw it?"

Xu Jingchen did not take the script immediately, but asked: "Since the teacher recommended me, why didn't you tell me?"

"You don't have a phone at home, and I can't contact you, so I need your home address and come to find you!"

"Uh..."

Hearing this, Xu Jingchen was embarrassed.

Well, it turns out that he was delayed by poverty...

"Then let me take a look first!"

For a moment, Xu Jingchen had no extra words to say, and hurriedly took the script over, only to see "Speeding YOYO" written on the cover.

Regarding the film and television animation about yo-yo, the most familiar one for Chinese children is probably the domestic special effects drama "Young Fire King".

This special effects drama invested and filmed by Aofei Company became popular all over the country as soon as it was launched.

But in fact, this is a GG film, and this Aofei Company is just a toy company, which is no different from the current Xingrong Company.

However, Li Wannian gave up this seemingly bright choice and chose a Japanese comic, "Super Speed ​​YOYO" which was serialized by Hashiguchi Takashi in 1997.

Although this comic is not well-known in China, it is precisely because of the serialization of this comic and the broadcast of the animation that yo-yo became popular in Japan, so that at that time, almost every boy in Japan had a yo-yo in his hand.

Since the effects of the two works are similar, and "Super Speed ​​YOYO" is better, Li Wannian certainly knows which one he should hype... which one to learn from!

After Li Wannian's adaptation, this comic tells the story of an elementary school student named Tang Shunyi, who has extraordinary motor nerves and is good at various sports.

In a yo-yo competition with friends, I met a yo-yo genius Yao Beiyuan.

Yao Beiyuan's superb ball control skills in the competition impressed Tang Shunyi, so Tang Shunyi became fascinated with yo-yo and vowed to surpass Yao Beiyuan.

In just half an hour, Xu Jingchen finished reading the entire script.

To be honest, the story of this comic is relatively old-fashioned, and the structure is equivalent to a typical sports series. The two protagonists are friends and opponents who influence each other throughout their lives and grow together.

But such a structure can at least make this comic not difficult to read, and there is a bottom line.

Therefore, after reading it, Xu Jingchen couldn't find any faults.

"The script is still correct!"

"Thank you!"

Li Zhongxing, who had been silent, replied at this time.

To be honest, he had no interest in this cooperation at all.

As a screenwriter, what he pursued was to create a movie script and then be valued by the company as a director, rather than being called over to write a script for a comic.

Unfortunately, this was Li Wannian's business. Even if he didn't want to do it anymore, he had to bite the bullet and do it.

As for Chen Weixian who came to him, Li Zhongxing couldn't afford to offend him either.

He was well-informed and knew that this person might be the son-in-law of the Li family in the future, a relative of the boss's family, so how could he offend him?

Therefore, although he was reluctant, he still spent a lot of energy and spent two days to write the script.

"Mr. Xu, have you agreed?"

"Basically, there is no problem. I am also very grateful to Manager Chen for finding me, but I still have to talk to the teacher!"

In fact, Xu Jingchen couldn't wait to agree!

After being an assistant for two years, he had long wanted to be a serial cartoonist like Fei Zhu and others.

Fei Zhu relied on a book "If I were the Emperor" and now not only bought a luxury car, but also a luxury house. His life was so luxurious that Xu Jingchen envied him.

Now he only needs to draw this comic well. Although he doesn't make as much money as Fei Zhu, it is enough to improve the lives of his family and himself.

However, he knew that if he agreed immediately, the other party would look down on him, so he needed a reason to delay.

In addition, the outline of this comic was given by the teacher after all, and he needed to communicate with him to better grasp the rhythm of the entire comic.

"Of course!"

Although Xu Jingchen did not agree immediately, Chen Weixian was very happy because he had already seen that Xu Jingchen was already moved.

It was only a matter of time before Xu Jingchen agreed.

Although Chen Weixian only met Xu Jingchen for the first time and had never seen Xu Jingchen paint, he was very confident in his ability.

After all, this was the person recommended to him by Li Wannian. How could a person who could be affirmed by Li Wannian be bad?
