I just want to draw cartoons quietly

"This kind of thing, come and talk to me after you wake up!" Zhao Qinyin looked at Chu Yu and said in a low voice.

Chapter 26 Night talk

In the middle of the night, Chu Yu was awakened by thirst.

Still dizzy, she sat on the edge of the bed and thought for a long time before realizing that she was drunk, and it was Zhao Qinyin who sent him and Su Bao all the way back to his home.

Thinking back to the so-called celebration tonight, Chu Yu really felt it was ridiculous. He was a boy, and Su Yu, who had been in the workplace for several years, was actually surrounded by Zhao Qinyin, a student who looked like a good girl. Down on the drink.

As far as the amount Zhao Qinyin drank, he was able to bring the two of them back with a clear head after drinking. Chu Yu knew that that kind of drinking capacity could not be achieved through practice. Not to mention, Zhao Qinyin's talent in drinking can A match for her learning talent.

So, when Chu Yu walked out of the room and saw that Zhao Qinyin was still awake at this point, and was still sitting on his sofa watching cartoons with great interest, he was really speechless.

At this time, Zhao Qinyin's face was still flushed, but Chu Yu could tell from her clear eyes that she was not drunk at all, and her blushing should be just a physical reaction after drinking, which had little effect on her consciousness nothing.

"Are you... want to rest?" Chu Yu was extremely thirsty, and asked Zhao Qinyin after pouring three glasses of water in a row.

It is not surprising that Zhao Qinyin was able to send him and Su Yu back to her home, Chu Yu. Anyway, in the past two weeks, Zhao Qinyin's comic assistant work was done here. Also very familiar.

But it was the first time that Zhao Qinyin stayed here at night and did not go back to her house.

Chu Yu's words had two meanings. The first was that if she was sleepy and wanted to rest, she didn't have to be restrained. Anyway, he was the only one in Chu Yu's house, and there was a guest room for Zhao Qinyin to rest.

The second is that if Zhao Qinyin doesn't want to rest at his house, Chu Yu can send her home, otherwise Zhao Qinyin would never be able to watch cartoons like this all night, it would be too harmful to her body.

"I don't want to go home. I drank too much wine tonight. My body smells like wine. Grandma will be upset if she finds out."

"Also, if I'm not drunk, I'll basically be very energetic, and I don't feel sleepy at all. You are all asleep, so I can only watch cartoons here!" Zhao Qinyin also understood that Chu Yu was What's the meaning.

"Grandma? Are your parents not at home?" Chu Yu asked.

"My parents are gone."

Perhaps it was because of the drinking together tonight, Chu Yu found that Zhao Qinyin's guard against him seemed to have eased a lot, and the relationship had also become more harmonious, so she was willing to talk to Chu Yu more.

"I've always lived with my grandma."

Parents....... are gone!

Chu Yu could hear what Zhao Qinyin meant when his parents were absent.

"You have a really good capacity for drinking. Did you drink and exercise regularly?" Chu Yu didn't get entangled in this topic, but asked another question that he was puzzled by.

"No..." Zhao Qinyin replied flatly, and there was no further text after that.

Chu Yu thought she didn't want to talk about this topic, so she didn't continue to ask, but after Zhao Qinyin was silent for half a minute, she continued to speak.

"People in my family have been wine jars for generations. My great-grandfather, grandfather, and my father were all well-known alcoholics in the surrounding villages."

"Understood, so you inherited their drinking talent?" Chu Yu nodded.

"No..." Zhao Qinyin said.

"Because I was born weak and sickly, my hands and feet often had cold hands and feet. When I was young, I didn't know what country doctor and fortune teller I heard from my grandfather, saying that I was haunted by evil spirits, which made my body weak.... drink strong Only alcohol can protect the body..."

"So since I was two years old, my grandpa often gave me wine. At first, the amount was small, and then the amount became a lot."

"Maybe I inherited their excellent physique. As I grew up, my drinking capacity gradually increased. Later, even my grandfather couldn't drink me."

What the hell?

Chu Yu was stunned when he heard that, and there was such a pitiful elder who let his granddaughter drink with him since he was two years old.

"However, a few years ago...... my grandfather also died of a severe blow due to an accident with his parents. In addition, he entered junior high school and had his own basic judgment on evil spirits. Since then, I have not I drank it, that is, when I was in a good mood, I would drink with friends or elders, but I would also control it, and stop after drinking them."

It turned out to be the case.

Chu Yu nodded. Sure enough, everyone can't just look at the surface!

Everyone in the school thinks that Zhao Qinyin is a good student and a good girl. Who would know that in private, she is a drinking hero. Her hobby is drawing manga on weekdays, and she can even earn income by being an assistant to other people's manga. ?

However, she said she was in a good mood?

"You said you drink when you are in a good mood, which means is there anything that makes you happy today?"

Zhao Qinyin gave Chu Yu a strange look.

"Why do you think I came to yesterday's party?"

"As a manga creator, I have failed for three years. Although I am just an assistant for this work, I am definitely very happy that it can be serialized in Manying! I always feel, I finally won't fail too much on the road of comics... Even if no one knows my name, but after passing through the comics in my hands, someone can have an impression in the future, and praise the drawing of Rurouni Kenshin Reminiscences is good , and I am quite satisfied!"

Looking at Zhao Qinyin's serious face, Chu Yu didn't know what to say, and felt that the question he just asked was really inappropriate.

Compared with the other party's serious attitude towards comics, I am indeed much worse.

It was also because of this that it was difficult for Chu Yu to understand why Zhao Qinyin had such affection for comics.

"Why...why do you want to work in the comics industry so much?"

Finally, Chu Yu couldn't hold back and asked.

This is what Chu Yu wanted to ask on the first day he was Zhao Qinyin's assistant.

With Zhao Qinyin's grades, domestic university majors can be taken casually, and Chu Yu knows from Su Yi that Zhao Qinyin wants to go to a university on RB Island for the college entrance examination. She wants to complete her studies in the birthplace of comics and continue her career as a cartoonist.

In any case, Chu Yu thinks that compared to the gambling-like life of a cartoonist, she obviously has a better choice.

Zhao Qinyin looked at Chu Yu, paused for a long time, and then said.

"Perhaps, it was influenced by my father!"

Zhao Qinyin thought about it.

"My father is a cartoonist. I was influenced by him since I was a child. I also fell in love with cartoons and followed him to learn the drawing skills of cartoons."

"No wonder the painter is so good..." Chu Yu thought to himself.

"My father's dream is to make a name for himself in the RB comics world..."

"Unfortunately, he didn't realize his dream..."

Zhao Qinyin paused for a while before speaking.

"However, I am not bound by my father's dream. It's just that after being brought into the comics industry by him, I gradually like it and dream of being a cartoonist. As I grow older, my ideas gradually coincide with his. Together, his dream has gradually become the dream I want to chase..."

So this is ah!

Chu Yu watched the cartoon on TV, and the two of them didn't talk for a long time.

But when Chu Yu looked at her again, he found that her face, which had become rosy from drinking, had finally returned to its usual fairness.

Her eyes were also slightly closed, and she fell down on the sofa, breathing evenly and long.

Fell asleep?

Chu Yu thought for a while and got up.

He took out a clean quilt and pillow from the cabinet at home, covered her body with the quilt, and put the pillow under her neck.

Turning off the TV and lights, I took a look at Su Zhi who was cursing someone in the other room in her sleep, and felt relieved after seeing that she didn't drink and vomit at night.

It was only four o'clock in the morning on Saturday, and after quieting down, Chu Yu also felt a little sleepy, so he went back to sleep and went back to sleep!

.......

Chapter 27 Rurouni Kenshin First Issue!

Two weeks passed quickly, and during these two weeks, there was a lot of turmoil in the comics circle in Los Angeles.

Dong Yun, the top cartoonist under Fengyu Comics Club, did not choose to renew his contract with Fengyu after the contract expired. Instead, he chose to join Cuttlefish Comics Club, which is also one of the three major journals in Los Angeles, to start a new series.

According to the fact that Manying spent a full five pages in the last periodical and other periodicals of Squid Comic Club to promote its new work Hidden Girl, it can be said that Hidden Girl has not been officially serialized yet, and her name is already well-known in the comics industry and the reader circle. With quite a reputation.

On the contrary, Rurouni Kenshin's Memories, another new work published on Manying in the same issue as the secret girl, has almost no promotional resources.

Originally, most people in the editorial department of Squid Manga Club proposed to give Rurouni Kenshin Reminiscences, at least the same promotional resources as the new works of its quasi-first-line manga artists.

However, at the meeting, Song Jiayu claimed that the author Shui Xin's qualifications were too low and he was not worthy of Cuttlefish's use of resources for publicity, so the matter was left alone.

But in the entire Los Angeles province, to be precise, in the comic circle of Ming City, Shui Xin's name was mentioned during this period.

The people outside don't know the inside story, so don't they, comic practitioners, understand?

This new manga artist named Yanye Zhiting was only serialized in Moying’s level of journal before, and his second work was voted by many editors at the serialization meeting of Moyu Manga Club. Dong Yun's new work "Secret Girl" is a chance to serialize.

It surprised the entire Mingshi comics world, and it was hard to believe it.

If the Squid Comics Club put so much effort into poaching Dong Yun, it must not be to suppress her, so give her a blow!

So what kind of trouble is this?

Dong Yun's new work lost to the newcomer's work?It was because the cuttlefish cut a work in half that Dong Yun had the opportunity to serialize.

Is this funny?

And according to insider information, the new manga artist named Shui Xin's new work is of high quality, and he won the serialization qualification by virtue of his strength to defeat the secret girl in the meeting.

So today Manying's new periodical is released. Many people who are active in the comics industry in Los Angeles not only want to have a look at the quality of Dong Yun's new works, but also have a very high interest in the work of Rurouni Kenshin Reminiscences .

As a professional comic commentator, Xiao Shan naturally has great interest in this issue of Manying.

After years of evolution, the literary world of Long Kingdom has formed this kind of business model with geographical boundaries.

Literary works, novels, comics, etc. of the provinces are generally only disseminated in the provinces, and cannot be disseminated at all outside the local provinces. This is a self-protection policy of local forces, but because of this, these local publishers and magazines Therefore, the business scope of comic agencies cannot be expanded.

It can be regarded as pros and cons.

As for Xinmanwang, which Xiaoshan belongs to, due to the particularity of the network, this kind of geographical distribution in the real world limits the natural radiation to the network, so Xinmanwang has also won the favor of comic fans all over Longguo.

Comic fans from various provinces will exchange excellent comic works in their respective provinces on this website.

After a long time, the demand naturally gave birth to a professional comic commentator like Xiao Shan.

Basically, Xinmanwang has one or two people in charge like Xiaoshan in every province, who are responsible for digging out excellent comics in the local province, and act as reviewers to publish articles on Xinmanwang!

It's... his hobby and his job.

The unified release time of periodicals on Manying is every Friday.

It's time for students to have their weekends off.

Perhaps because Dong Yun's new work was published in this issue of Man Ying, the sales volume of Man Ying is extremely hot in various bookstores today.

Xiao Shan searched several bookstores before he found a bookstore where Manying's periodical was not sold out.

At the same time, after school in the afternoon, many students from primary and secondary schools also rushed to the bookstore. After all, they are the biggest audience for comic periodicals!

Qin Qianyu is no exception. She also bought this issue of Manying today. She has always liked to buy Tianyin comics under Fengyu Comics. After all, most of the serialized works of Tianyin comics are girl comics. .

But firstly, Dong Yun, a well-known cartoonist of Tianyin comics, published a new work on Manying, and secondly, Qin Qianyu discovered that there was a small promotion on the last page of Moying in the previous issue.

"The former Mokage serial manga artist, the author of the Garden of Words, Shui Xin's new work Rurouni Kenshin Memories will be serialized in the next issue of Manying, so stay tuned!"

After the end of the Garden of Words, Shuixin's popularity gradually declined. Now, two weeks later, few people mentioned this work and its author.

Even her younger sister and cousins, who are loyal fans of the Garden of Words and Leafs, have hardly talked about it for a long time after the end of the Garden of Words and Leaves.

This is the reality of comics, without classic, excellent, long-running serials, your readers will forget you in just a few days.

If it hadn't been confirmed that Chu Yu was Shui Xin, maybe Qin Qianyu would do the same, although the two of them hadn't had much contact since they asked Chu Yu for his autograph abruptly that day.

But Chu Yu wandered around in front of Qin Qianyu all day, and it was hard for Qin Qianyu to ignore his existence.

After realizing that Chu Yu had newly serialized a new work, as a fan of the Garden of Words and Leafs, she finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and bought a copy of this issue's manga.

Only Chu Yu went straight home after school.

For him, the serialization of Rurouni Kenshin.Reminiscences is nothing more than an increase in his manuscript fee from 220 yuan per page to [-] yuan per page.

He just changed from a cartoonist with a weekly salary of more than 4000 to a cartoonist with a weekly salary of more than 1.

Thinking about it this way... Chu Yu suddenly became a little restless.

"I seem to be a rich man?"

Compared with Chu Yu, who was able to spend 800 yuan a month before, after the serialization of Rurouni Kenshin, his monthly income skyrocketed to nearly [-] Dragon National Coins.

Not to mention being in a second-tier city like Los Angeles, even in a first-tier city like Shanghai or even the capital, he is a well-earned high-income group.

For a moment, Chu Yu was a little confused.

The money came so unrealistically, it seemed completely different from the difficulty of earning money taught in school!

However, his confusion disappeared when he went upstairs and saw Su Bao standing at the door of his house carrying a large bag of vegetables.
