Chapter 58: Chen Zijiao's calculations

   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 a world.

   Every time Chen Zijiao looked at them, his eyes were filled with hatred, as if the two of them had taken away his treasure.

"boom!"

   The door of the room was suddenly opened, Chen Zijiao's eyes were bloodshot, and his shirt and fingers were stained with black ink.

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

   "No...no..." The assistant looked flustered, and the ink dripped from the dipping pen splashed on the manuscript paper, "I...I just...there is still one page of the background that hasn't been drawn..."

   "What? The background is not well drawn?" Chen Zijiao's eyes widened, "Then why...The quality of the background on "Y’s" is higher than yours, instead of affecting the speed of comics? Why! Tell me!"

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

   "Can't compare to him... and dare to ask for such a high salary?" Chen Zijiao's complexion flushed, "Go...you get out of here! I'm here...you don't need to dispose of unusable garbage!"

  The assistant patted the table and yelled at Chen Zijiao: "Why? I don't want to do it a long time ago!"

   The assistant put away the tools angrily, and raised his **** to Chen Zijiao. Seeing this scene, another assistant quickly lowered his head, pretending that he didn't know anything, and continued to draw the ink line.

   The dumbfounded Chen Zijiao watched his assistant leave angrily. He couldn't say a word for a long time. After a while, Wang Wenhong with a confused face appeared at the door.

   "What's wrong?" Wang Wenhong asked puzzledly.

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

  Wang Wenhong frowned slightly and glanced at the other assistant.

   "Wang Bian..." The assistant stood up from his seat.

  Wang Wenhong waved his hand and motioned him to sit down and continue working. He took a deep breath and entered Chen Zijiao's studio.

   The painting room is in a mess.

   Ink spilled all over the floor, and scraps of manuscript paper also spilled on every corner of the floor. Dip pen, ruler, and even the drawing board fell to the ground, leaving only a crumpled copy of "Y’s" on the table.

   "What result?" Chen Zijiao turned his back to Wang Wenhong, and pressed his hands on the table.

   "Sixth place." Wang Wenhong said bitterly.

   "Where is the single-line book?" Chen Zijiao turned around and looked at Wang Wenhong, the bloodshot eyes were particularly obvious against the whites of his eyes.

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

"Save?" Chen Zijiao opened his mouth slightly, and his eyes were a little lost. "Could it be that... "To Frozen" can only be described as "save"? Why didn't Su Han come here to help, that stinky woman? Isn't this her work? ?"

   Hearing Chen Zijiao's hysterical roar, Wang Wenhong closed his eyes, and after reciting three numbers silently in his heart, he opened his eyes and looked at Chen Zijiao.

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

   "Nonsense, am I still thinking about listening to lies?" Chen Zijiao glared at Wang Wenhong.

   "Then you don't think about the rookie king. The most urgent goal now is **** Shen Xin and his "Y's"." Wang Wenhong gritted his teeth.

   "Of course I want to kill him... I want to trample him under my feet." Chen Zijiao said.

   "This is not enough." Wang Wenhong shook his head, "It's not enough just to step on him. Let me say an exaggeration. By next June, at most only one instinct of "Together" and "Y’s" will survive."

   "Huh? Why?" Wang Wenhong was surprised.

"Why? Haha... The reason is very simple, the market. Do you think Yunhai is Hongchuan? Not at all. Yunhai digests the comics and the volume of the booklet, which are two orders of magnitude from Hongchuan, and the level of attention is completely different. Next June will be the moment when the major awards will start to compete. The major magazines will use all their strength to promote their ace works. The competition at that time is so cruel.

"Although the previous 15 newcomer awards were evenly divided by the three major publications, I speculate that both "Toggle" and "Y's" are good, and I think I have 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 big. Even the entire Yunhai comic market may not be able to launch a super work that can compete with the three major publications.

"So, you know your situation now, don't you? Just stepping on "Y's" is not enough. If you want to stand out in the domestic market, you must drain the "blood" of the Yunhai comic market. Or, you use "Toggle" Destroy "Y's", otherwise, wait to be destroyed by "Y's"."

   Chen Zijiao was a little dumbfounded. He only expected to win Shen Xin, but he didn't expect the reality to be so cruel.

   "Next June... Only one of "Toggle" and "Y’s" will survive..."

   "What's the matter? Afraid? If you give up voluntarily, then there is no way." Wang Wenhong shrugged his shoulders.

   "What a joke! If only one work survives, it must be "Toddler"!" Chen Zijiao slammed into the table.

"Fortunately...you are not a fool." Wang Wenhong sneered, "Well, after drinking the'Chinese medicine', it's time to talk about business. President Luo Zhi is going to put another round of commercials for "Toggle". The sales volume of "Toggle" should be There will be an increase. In the near future, you quickly find the climax of the story, and success or failure depends on this."

   Chen Zijiao nodded repeatedly, "I will...Ah!"

   After half talking, he suddenly remembered something.

   "What's wrong?" Wang Wenhong was surprised.

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

   "Hurry up and call him back." Wang Wenhong glared at Chen Zijiao, with an impulse that "children can't be taught" in his heart.

   "No." Chen Zijiao shook his head~www.wuxiahere.com~ Actually, there is one thing that 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, not as good as Shen Xin's assistant! You can tell the difference between the two from the booklets of "Crumbling" and "Y's". Especially in the background, the gap is more obvious."

  Chen Zijiao handed the separate copies of "Toggle" and "Y’s" to Wang Wenhong.

   The painting style of "Crumbling" and "Y's" are two types. "Y's" is more realistic. At first glance, it doesn't just look good, but after a long time, it will look particularly comfortable. On the other hand, "Toggle" is the opposite. The character image is exaggerated and the background happens to be a weakness. This is indeed a problem.

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

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

   "Digging assistant?" Wang Wenhong said in surprise.

   "Dig helpers. Even if they are given double salary, I have to order those two assistants. Especially the background of the painting. I want to see, without the assistants, how Shen Xin drew "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.

   It costs a lot of money to dig two people in a row.

   "This is called ‘slashing from the bottom of the pot’. I want to see Shen Xin panicking when he suddenly realizes that there is no assistant. Moreover, once the quality of one or two words drops, 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 Shen Xin will be completely torn apart.
