My Cartoonist Strategy

Genius remembers this site's address for one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! "Transformed Gentleman" won the "Best Full-length Comic Award of the Year", which surprised many people.

When the awards were broadcast live, Bao Jiyi was having dinner with customers.

When the award screen was broadcast on TV, Bao Jiyi's hand shook slightly, and his face turned black.

After a few words of courtesy, he left the suite on the grounds that he went to the bathroom.

Coming to the bathroom, Bao Jiyi took out his mobile phone and dialed Shang Haozhi's phone.

"Are you live?"

"Ok."

"What's going on? Why was "Soul of Chess" eliminated? Related to recent comics?" Bao Ji said angrily.

"It shouldn't be, the judges will not judge such an important award based on the content of the last few words. Otherwise, any comic, as long as it is near the selection, create it again, then it will not work?"

"Then tell me, "Crossdress Gentleman" is better than "Chess Soul"?" Bao Jiyi asked back.

"I think... there is no way to answer you now."

"Are you with others?" Bao Jiyi asked.

"With Du Yulu." Shang Haozhi said.

Editor-in-Chief of "Girls' Century"?

Bao Jiyi immediately understood that Shang Haozhi and Du Yulu had a very close relationship before, only to break up later.

Although not a lover, the relationship between the two is not too rigid.

"Senior, how is Teacher Shen now?"

"He... was a little lost at the beginning, and later, accompanied by Wang Wenhong, went back."

"Senior, you have a call with Wang Wenhong and let him enlighten Teacher Shen. Also, you are a little tired tonight...I have to know the selection rules tomorrow."

"I can't get it. These things have been taken away by the Cartoonists Association." Shang Haozhi said.

"Then... you first determine the cause, and then we will talk about it tomorrow." Bao Jiyi gritted his teeth and endured the depression in his heart.

After hanging up the phone, Bao Jiyi took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality, facing the mirror, showing a professional smile, and waited for his face to return to normal before leaving the restroom.

After returning to the studio, Shen Xin sat at the workbench and continued to paint.

He failed to get the "Best Full-length Comic Award of the Year" today, which really surprised him and said that he was not lost. That must be a lie.

As long as there is expectation, there will be regrets for awards. Even if this award is received, it is of little use to "Soul of Chess".

Wang Wenhong grinded a latte and served it to Shen Xin, then took a chair and sat opposite Shen Xin.

"how do you feel?"

"It feels like it's like I didn't get the'three good students' certificate in the class." Shen Xin touched the glass and it was a little hot, so I didn't rush to drink it.

"Then? Lost, weeping, resenting, blaming yourself... what about these emotions?"

Shen Xin rolled his eyes, "You care about this award so much..."

"No, are you really not sad?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"There are some losses and some depressions, but it's just that. It's just that. I have more headaches? How can I waste time here?" Shen Xin patted the drawing on the drawing board with a smile.

"This word..." Wang Wenhong looked slightly at the painting, his face slightly changed, "This word should be...'Zuowei disappeared?'"

"Ok."

"Are you still going to paint like this?" Wang Wenhong smiled bitterly.

"Yeah... there are only dozens of words in the comics, what's the score, just put it aside for a moment? First draw the comics."

"Well. Since that is the case, then you should stop thinking about the'Comic Festival'." Wang Wenhong advised.

It seems that you have been mentioning it?

Shen Xin looked at Wang Wenhong angrily.

"Soul of Chess" failed to get the news of the "Longest Manga Award of the Year", which quickly spread on the Internet, and the Internet soon divided into two groups.

One of them is the reader of "Soul of Chess". After they knew this news,

"Deserved! Retribution, Mr. Shen! Hurry up and take back the word "Don't want to disappear", "Soul of Chess" still saves."

"Skynet is restored, sparse but not leaking. God has reminded you, Shen Zheng! Hurry back!"

"The judge teacher finally breathed out for me, and I feel a little bit happy."

...

The other faction is made up of some older cartoonists and comic critics, who are more ruthless in their approach, and directly compare "Soul of Chess" and "Dress Up Gentleman" item by item.

From the plot, to the painting skills, and then to the storyboard...

The results of each comparison show that "Soul of Chess" has an absolute advantage.

Then, these people compared the sales and popularity of the two comics, still "Leader of Chess" is in the lead.

"I don't understand, what is the basis of the judges' judgment? "Comic Festival" Qiu Gongyu." An old cartoonist asked his assistant to post on Weibo.

"Some can't understand this year's'Comics Festival.'" A commentator also questioned.

Ye Hexu was even more direct, took a photo of last year’s trophy, and attached the text, "I don’t want a'manga festival'."

Wang Yunze expressed more implicitly, took a smashed TV photo, and wrote: "It's broken."

In short, this night, the Internet was chaotic, and Shen Xin, who was at the center of public opinion, was rushing to the manuscript, so he had no time to look after it.

The next day, the entire "ComicFuture" was discussing the "Best Comic Award" missed by "Soul of Chess". The editorial department looked at Wang Wenhong, who was depressed, and didn't know how to persuade him. He could only give him sympathetic eyes.

However, they did not know that these eyes were the source of Wang Wenhong's depression.

Shang Haozhi arrived very late and entered the editorial department at nearly 11 o'clock.

After putting the briefcase on the desk, Shang Haozhi picked up the landline and said a few words with Bao Jiyi before leaving the editorial department.

Yesterday, after Bao Jiyi sent away the client, he asked the assistant to buy himself a set of "Gentleman in Disguise."

Coming to the office the next day, he read the 10-volume manga twice, and compared it with "Soul of Chess", and then he was depressed for more than half an hour until Shang Haozhi knocked on the door.

"Working hard. Was it fun yesterday?" Bao Jiyi smiled.

Shang Haozhi rolled his eyes and did not answer Bao Jiyi.

"Cough...Why did "Soul of Chess" fall out yesterday? Does it have anything to do with the recent plot?" Bao Jiyi noticed that Shang Haozhi's face was wrong and changed the subject again.

"If so, what do you do?" Shang Haozhi asked back.

Bao Jiyi's face was somber, "What else can I do. This is Mr. Shen's choice, and we have no choice. But you are not saying that the judges cannot judge the performance of a comic based on a few words?"

"Really not. Actually, it has little to do with Mr. Shen...but it has a lot to do with us." Shang Haozhi smiled bitterly.

"What do you mean?" Bao Jiyi's face grew darker.

"If "ComicFuture" has won the "Best Long Comic" award for three consecutive years, the pressure of other magazines is too great. So..." Shang Haozhi explained.

Bao Jiyi frowned tightly.
