Hong Kong Comic Master

Just one day after TVB announced its animation broadcasting plan, DreamWorks also announced its recent broadcasting plan.

In January 1979, after the finale of "The Little Master Chef", the next animations were "Bleach" and "Mobile Suit Gundam".

As soon as this news came out, the whole of Hong Kong Island was boiling, especially the "Bleach fans", it was more like the New Year!

After nearly three years of accumulation, the "Bleach fans" in Hong Kong Island have become very large, especially young people under 30 years old, the proportion is much higher than other comic fans.

For them, they have always been looking forward to the animation of "Bleach", and now this dream has finally come true.

In this way, the news released by TVB was overwhelmed by the news of the animation of "Bleach" before anyone even noticed it.

"Astro Boy"?

Who cares!

We just need to watch "Bleach"!

Uncle Shao and Fang Yihua were obviously shocked by the recent public opinion. They didn't expect that the influence of "Bleach" would be so great?

The kids around me are all crazy, is it that serious?

"Animation? Good, great! Hahahaha..."

At this time, Uncle Shao and Fang Yihua looked at Jiro Kadota next door, and sighed in their hearts at the same time: Well, another one is crazy!

That's our competitor, can you be more careful?

"Alas, it's a pity, if "Parasyte" can also be adapted into an animation, it will be even better!"

After laughing, Kadota even muttered to himself, feeling sorry for DreamWorks.

Jiro Kadota didn't realize that there was anything wrong with his behavior, but he was still sighing that "Parasyte" had not been adapted.

As a cartoonist, although Jiro Kadota has also created other types of works, most of the most famous ones are horror comics, such as "Horror News" and so on.

Therefore, compared with the hot-blooded comics such as "Bleach", the realistic themes of "Parasyte" touched Kadota's heart more.

After reading the first volume that night, Kadota fell deeply in love with this comic.

As for Li Wannian's other comics, Kakuta has finished reading Gundam and Chinese Little Chef. He only read one volume of Hong Kong Love Story and Pokemon before giving up. They are not his cup of tea!

However, after reading so many comics in a short period of time, Kakuta has been deeply impressed by Li Wannian's talent.

So many different types of comics, different styles of painting, hot-blooded, fighting, reality, love, cute and other different types, can all be achieved at the top level. With such talent, Kakuta even thinks that he has surpassed Osamu Tezuka.

"Oh, by the way, how is the arrangement for me to meet Wansui going?"

At this point, Kakuta remembered the meeting with Wansui again. At this time, he really wanted to meet with Wansui to discuss comic creation.

But when Shao Liushu heard this, his face suddenly became much uglier. He really wanted to send Kakuta away quickly.

Uncle Shao said with a fake smile: "Isn't President Kadota in a hurry to return to Japan?"

"I am in a hurry, but I can stay for two more days. It is totally worth it to communicate with such a talented cartoonist!"

"Well, you know, cartoonists are usually very busy, so it is difficult for us to arrange a meeting for you in two days!"

Fang Yihua naturally knew what Uncle Shao meant, so he chose to delay until Kadota left.

"Is that so! Forget it!"

Kadota said with a disappointed look on his face.

"There will be opportunities in the future. When President Kadota comes next time, I will arrange it for you personally!"

Uncle Shao raised his glass and finally smiled again.

However, when the dinner was over, Kadota said to his translator: "Let's go!"

"Where to?"

"To see Wansui!"

"Didn't President Shao and the others say that Wansui is not free?"

"They clearly don't want me to see him!"

Although Kadota was stupid, he was not stupid. He had obviously seen through the tactics of Uncle Shao and the others at this moment.

"Why do you say that?"

"As a cartoonist, I certainly know the work and rest schedule of cartoonists! If you want time, it's like that. You can always find it if you squeeze it in!"

Just like that, Kadota took the translator out and took a taxi to DreamWorks.

"Ding-ling-ling..."

In the quiet studio, a quick ring suddenly rang.

"Hello, how are you? What? Japanese?"

Cherry Chung put down the phone and came to Li Wannian's side.

"There is a cartoonist from Japan who wants to meet you at the company!"

"Who is from Japan?"

Li Wannian put down the pen in his hand and asked in confusion.

"The other party said his name is Jiro Kadota, vice president of Mushi Production Co., Ltd."

"Isn't he invited by the wireless station? Why do you want to see me?"

This time Li Wannian really didn't understand.

"Then do you want to meet?"

"Let's meet!"

Cherry Chung drove Li Wannian to DreamWorks, and just like that, Li Wannian met Jiro Kadota who came from afar in the company's reception room.

"Are you Wansui?"

"Yes, I am Wansui!"

"How can you be Wansui?"

"Why can't I be Wansui?"

On the way here, Li Wannian had imagined countless scenarios of meeting Kakuta, but he had never thought of the current scenario.

Kakuta shook hands with Li Wannian with a face full of question marks, and then he was still immersed in shock.

"This is impossible!"

After reading Mansui's comics, Kakuta had a picture of Mansui in his mind.

He thought he should be the kind of person who was less than 30 years old, plain-looking, but full of wisdom in his eyes.

However, when he saw the real person, Kakuta still couldn't accept it. This was not a cartoonist, but an actor!

When did we have such a good-looking person in the comics industry?

And he was so young, he probably hadn't graduated from college yet?

"What does President Kakuta want to talk to me about?"

Sitting opposite Kakuta, Li Wannian asked openly.

"I came to Hong Kong Island and read your comics. I liked them very much, so I wanted to communicate with you... Do you speak Japanese?"

Kakuta had already suppressed his excitement, but he realized later that Li Wannian was actually speaking Japanese when communicating with him.

And his pronunciation had no accent, sounding like someone who had been in Tokyo for a long time, not like a beginner at all.

Kakuta was not the only one who was surprised. The translator and Zhong Chuhong were also looking at Li Wannian in surprise.

"Did I say I can't do it?"

In his previous life, he studied and worked in Japan for about ten years. Li Wannian's Japanese ability was almost the same as that of ordinary Japanese people.

"But... yours is too standard, isn't it?"

"Ah, I have a good talent, there is nothing I can do!"

No one expected that when the two cartoonists met, the first thing they discussed was not cartoons, but language.
