Chapter 58 The Calculation of Chen Zijiao

Chapter 58

"Snapped!"

A loud noise came from the room.

The assistants who stayed outside to paint were silent.

They really can't stand this kind of environment. Especially, after the publication of "Y's", the whole studio has completely changed into a world.

Every time Chen Zijiao looked at them, he was filled with abhorrence, as if they had taken away his treasure.

"boom!"

The door of the room was suddenly pulled open, Chen Zijiao's eyes were full of blood, and black ink stained his shirt and fingers.

"Is the manuscript finished?" Chen Zijiao glared at the two assistants.

"No...no..." The assistant panicked, and the ink drops on the fountain pen splashed on the manuscript paper. "I...I just...the background of one page was not drawn..."

"What? The background is not well drawn?" Chen Zijiao's eyes glared round, "Then why... The quality of the background on "Y's" is higher than yours, but it does not affect the speed of the comics? Why! You tell me!"

The assistant looked at Chen Zijiao's ugly face, and the chair involuntarily moved back half an inch, "I... I'm sorry, I can't compare with him..."

"Can't compare to him... dare to ask for such a high salary?" Chen Zijiao turned red, "Go...you get me! I'm here... I don't need to sort out the useful garbage!"

The assistant clapped the table and yelled at Chen Zijiao: "Heng Xiaoheng! I don't want to do it anymore!"

The assistant put away the tools angrily and raised his middle finger at Chen Zijiao.Seeing this scene, another assistant quickly lowered his head and pretended not to know anything, and continued to apply ink.

The dumbfounded Chen Zijiao watched the assistant leave angrily, unable to say a word for a long time, and not long after, a confused Wang Wenhong appeared at the door.

"What's wrong with this?" Wang Wenhong puzzled.

"Go away. Brother Wang, you can help me find an assistant again... By the way, this assistant, I won't ask for it anymore, and I suggest you don't find him a job anymore." Chen Zijiao turned sullenly and turned into the studio.

Wang Wenhong frowned slightly and glanced at another assistant.

"Wang..." The assistant stood up from the seat.

Wang Wenhong waved his hand and motioned him to sit down and continue to work, but he took a deep breath and entered Chen Zijiao's studio.

The room is messy.

The ink spilled over the floor, and the scraps of the original paper spilled on every corner of the floor.The pen, ruler, and even the drawing board fell to the ground, leaving only a crumpled "Y's" on the table.

"What achievement?" Chen Zijiao turned his back to Wang Wenhong, his hands pressed against the table.

"Sixth place." Wang Wenhong said daringly.

"Where is the single book?" Chen Zijiao turned back and looked at Wang Wenhong. The blood in his eyes was particularly obvious against the white eyes.

"Today's magazine said that it was necessary to increase the publicity of "Shattering", and at the same time, the third reprint should be able to save it." Wang Wenhong took a deep breath and repeated what President Luo Zhi said at today's meeting.

"Save?" Chen Zijiao's mouth opened slightly, and his eyes were a little absent. "Could it be that "Shattering" can only be described as'rescue'? Why is the stinky woman Su Han not helping? This is not her work. ?"

Hearing Chen Zijiao's hysterical roar, Wang Wenhong closed his eyes. After meditating three numbers in his heart, he opened his eyes and stared at Chen Zijiao.

"Do you want to hear the truth?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"Nonsense, do I still want to listen to lies?" Chen Zijiao glared at Wang Wenhong.

"Then don't consider the newcomer Wang first. The most urgent purpose now is to kill Shen Xin and his "Y's." Wang Wenhong gritted his teeth.

"Of course I want to get rid of him...I want to step him under my feet." Chen Zijiao said.

"This is not enough." Wang Wenhong shook his head,

"Eh? Why?" Wang Wenhong stunned.

"Why? Haha... The reason is very simple, the market. Do you think Yunhai is Hongchuan? Not at all, Yunhai digests comics and single-book volumes, and Hongchuan is two orders of magnitude, and the degree of attention is completely different. In June next year, it will be the time for the major awards to compete. Major magazines will use all their power to promote their ace works. At that time, the cruelty of competition can be imagined.

"Although the previous 15 newcomer awards were evenly divided by the three major publications, I speculate that "Shaky" and "Y's" are good. I think there is a chance to be selected for next year's "Newcomer Award". However, the market of Yunhai and the market of Hongchuan The gap is too large. Even the entire Yunhai comic market may not be able to launch a super work that can compete with the three major magazines.

"So, do you know your situation now? It's not enough to just step on "Y's" underfoot. If you want to make a splash in the domestic market, you must absorb the "blood" of the Yunhai comics market. Or, you use "Shattering" Destroy "Y's", otherwise, wait to be destroyed by "Y's"."

Chen Zijiao was dumbfounded. He only thought of winning Shen Xin, but he didn't expect such a cruel reality.

"June next year... Only one piece of "Shattering" and "Y's" will survive..."

"What's wrong? Fear? If you voluntarily give up, then there is no way." Wang Wenhong shrugged.

"What a joke! If only one work survives, it must be "Shattering"!" Chen Zijiao struggled to the desktop.

"Fortunately...you are not a fool." Wang Wenhong sneered. "Okay, after drinking'Chinese medicine', it's time to talk about business. President Luo Zhi is going to make another round of advertising for "Shaky Fall". The sales volume of the "Shaky Fall" single book should be There will be a rise. In the near future, you quickly find the high tide of the story, and the success or failure is in one move."

Chen Zijiao nodded again and again, "I will soon...Ah!"

Halfway through the words, he suddenly remembered something.

"What's wrong?" Wang Wenhong wondered.

"I... drove Gao Hang away." Chen Zijiao rubbed his forehead.

"Quickly call him back." Wang Wenhong stared at Chen Zijiao, and had an impulse in his heart that he could not be taught.

"No." Chen Zijiao shook his head. "Actually, there is one thing I particularly care about. Do you know what it is?"

"What?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"Level... The assistant's level is not good. He... and the idiot outside is not as good as Shen Xin's assistant! You can tell the difference between the two in the single book of "Shattering" and "Y's", Especially in the background, the gap is more obvious."

Chen Zijiao handed over the single copies of "Shaky Fall" and "Y's" to Wang Wenhong.

The style of "Shaky" and "Y's" are two types. "Y's" is more realistic. At first glance, it will not just look good, but after a long time, it will feel particularly comfortable."Shaky" is the opposite, the character image is exaggerated, and the background happens to be a weakness, which is indeed a problem.

"What are you going to do?" Wang Wenhong said differently.

"First of all, of course, to rewrite the name. Besides, I want Shen Xin's two assistants."

"Dug assistant?" Wang Wenhong surprised.

"Dig assistants. Even if they were given double wages, I had to decide the two assistants. Especially the background of the painting. I want to see, without assistants, how does Shen Xin paint "Y's"!" Chen Zijiao grinned.

Wang Wenhong sighed and shook his head helplessly.

"Then you don't need to dig two, just dig one." Wang Wenhong puzzled.

Digging two people in a row costs a lot of money.

"This is called "dumping at the bottom of the kettle". I want to see Shen Xin panic when he suddenly finds that there is no assistant. Moreover, once the quality of one or two words declines, I have a chance to return to the lead."

Wang Wenhong frowned, and Chen Zijiao chose the worst path.

In this way, it is estimated that Shen Xin and her face will be completely torn apart.
