"Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance? What is that, Shui Xin? I don't know it at all." Li Xi was talking while helping Tang Xin tidy up the takeaway boxes and various snack trash on the table.
As Tang Xin's editor, her responsibilities certainly do not include these miscellaneous things, but she understands that if no one comes to help Tang Xin do these things, this girl who is very good at drawing cartoons and has extremely low self-care ability may be able to make this room. In the center of the magic city, an apartment with an inch of land has become a garbage dump.
"Don't you know?" Tang Xin's eyes widened, his face full of disappointment.
"That's it! The works serialized in the periodical Man Ying of Cuttlefish Comics Club, only three stories are serialized..."
"I don't know, I have no impression at all, but I basically know all the old authors in Los Angeles. In that case, it may be a new writer from Los Angeles!" Li Xi shook his head.
"But why are you asking this?"
Tang Xin stood up from the chair, a little embarrassed on his face.
"Didn't I think you've stayed in that comics club before?"
"I mean...."
"If you are familiar with there, can you help me copy the follow-up comics of this work, or the name of the comics to me..."
"Although this work has only been serialized to the third chapter in the journal, if the situation is similar to our manga agency, maybe the manga house called Cuttlefish already has the original manuscripts of Kenshin Chapter 4 and even Chapter 5 in the hands of it. Now, if the name of the comic is concerned, maybe the link bureau draws it out and submits it."
"I'm very curious about the follow-up plot of this work." At this point, Tang Xin clenched his fists with both hands, looking at Li Xi with hope and expectation.
Upon hearing this, Li Xi gave her a hand knife mercilessly, which hit her forehead.
"It hurts!" Tang Xin shouted, covering his forehead.
"What are you thinking? It's been two years since I left that boring company? And I was in a stalemate with the comics club. How could I get access to other manga manuscripts."
"And even if I still have a good relationship with the manga agency staff, this kind of thing is impossible! How could the unpublished manga manuscript and manga name be copied and loaned out, although there are a few people in that manga agency that are just waste , But don't think about this kind of principle."
"Hey~~"
"However, it would be too painful to update this one week!" Tang Xin sat down heavily in his chair with a listless expression on his face.
"Are you qualified to say such things?" Li Xi sneered.
"Do you know how many issues you have closed this year? You have to close one issue a month on average. Have you ever thought that your readers can't even wait for a week?"
"But I really can't paint! I feel that my talent has been exhausted by me, and my inspiration has also been exhausted."
"Perhaps, this is what the ancients said! Maybe I shouldn't have embarked on the road of a cartoonist...In that case, maybe I am already an excellent fashion model!"
"Don't think so much, you have to recognize the reality, you are a person like you, can't take care of yourself, and are easy to be deceived, don't understand the world, don't draw cartoons...you will starve to death!" Li Xi Looking at her, she said very seriously.
"Okay, do you have any other weird requests? I said them all and I rejected them all. Then I will stay by your side for the next five days, before you draw a new comic. Don't even think about getting close to mobile phones, computers, etc., and the network will be disconnected."
"You are the devil!" Tang Xin jumped up all at once.
"I am a cartoonist, not a slave, I have human rights..."
However, Li Xi in front of her just gave her a firm and sharp look back.
Tang Xin's momentum gradually weakened.
"Then can I make a request."
"Say!"
"This periodical named Man Ying, the last issue, the last issue, and the number of issues with the Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance article will be published in the future, can you please contact me with a friend you know in Los Angeles and send it to me? Come here, oh, by the way, don't send that kind of ordinary courier, directly by air, and the money will be deducted from my draft fee!"
Li Xi let out a long sigh and looked at Tang Xin's serious face.
"What kind of cartoon is this heart? Is it so good?"
"It's just a work in a local comic journal..."
"Of course it looks good..." Tang Xin turned the computer screen around and pointed at Li Xi, as if a child was showing off his baby.
"Otherwise, take a look for yourself, and only update to the third chapter, which is not long..."
...
On Monday, as soon as he walked into the comics club, Su Lu felt a strange atmosphere.
Almost everyone was looking at her secretly. Several colleagues who had been cold-eyed at her because of her feud with Song Jiayu before, looked much better at her when they saw her today.
Su Lu knew what caused the weirdness she felt.
After the voting results of the comic film came out last Friday, let alone the cuttlefish, even the editorial departments of two other comic companies of the same level, Fengyu and Longya also learned that there appeared a series of only two episodes on the comic film. There are works that tens of thousands of people voted for.
In the past two days, many acquaintances in the circle have asked her about this.
Not to mention that outsiders find it incredible, even Su Lu, the editor in charge of Chu Yu, could not have imagined that UU reading www.uukanshu.com would develop in this way.
Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance will be popular, this is in her guess, but she absolutely did not dare to think that this work will be so fast.
"Su Lu, this is a letter from the reader, please submit it to Teacher Shuixin."
When I arrived at my office, soon, a woman held a whole box, and almost hundreds of letters were placed on Su Lu's desk.
"so much?"
"Well, that's right, I've confirmed it. These are all letters sent by fans from the teachers of Shui Xin from all over Luo Province."
After the woman left, Su Lu looked at the pile of fan letters on the desktop blankly.
If the number of votes in the voting ranking text message is just a number, I don't have too intuitive feelings.
The whole box of letters in front of him made Su Lu understand that the work of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance was really popular.
It is fully worthy of the 14,000 votes in the previous period.
Having been in the editing industry for three years, Su Lu didn't think that he could bring out a popular cartoonist in the future, but it was too fast!
In the first two months, she was still annoyed by her being ostracized by her offending Song Jiayu in the comics agency, and she even wanted to give up her career. Now, with the popularity of Rurouni Kenshin, her status in the comics agency is naturally also. The tide goes up.
"Su Lu, the editor-in-chief is looking for you to talk to." At this time, a colleague came in to inform her.
"Oh, I understand, I'll be over right away!"
Su Lu took a deep breath and responded.
Talk to me?
Su Lu didn't need to think about it to understand, it must be a topic about Chu Yu.
After all, last week's ranking results have already made the whole Cuttlefish understand that Shui Xin is Chu Yu's potential...
