Rebirth as a Cooking God

Something bad happened?

Xia Yu suppressed his smile slightly.

Hurry up and check Weibo. You can also read hotly discussed news! Ying Lili said.

You guys sit down first. Xia Yu greeted the two of them, took out his mobile phone among a pile of papers, looked at the news on the portal, and then went to the personal social platform to browse, and all the truth came out.

It's true that this matter was not hidden.

Xia Yu frowned, his voice was light and calm, A few days after the competition ended, when the excitement was high, he came to the door in such a grand manner, he had to be mentally prepared to be exposed and make the news.

ah?!

Hearing this, Eiriri and Erina looked at him incomprehensibly. Unexpectedly, Xia Yu was reprimanding Ryunosuke Kubo for his lack of consideration in doing things. He seemed to be thinking about the comic master.

But this also concerns you. Aren't you worried at all? The key is public opinion! Public opinion!

Public opinion, public opinion.

This is also the most powerful tool for criticizing public figures. Throughout the ages, countless powerful people have fallen out of favor because of this.

Yingli and Erina came overnight because they were afraid that the intensifying public opinion would cause trouble to Xia Yu. Once affected by the outside world, his mentality would inevitably change.

On the contrary, neither of them asked anything about rejecting the manga master Kubo-sensei.

Let them talk if they like.

Xia Yu shrugged, The mouth is on someone else's body!

Then... do you want to post a personal statement on Twitter or Weibo? Erina bit her lip and looked at him, still not reassured.

Shit, let's eat!

As soon as Xia Yu put down his cell phone, he turned to the kitchen and brought in a few plates of hot side dishes. Zhu Qing followed behind him, taking off his apron and coming out. He said with a smile: The trees are beautiful in the forest, but the wind will destroy them.

Ayu, this incident should serve as a reminder to you. Your current position is too high and too dazzling. This indeed proves that you are excellent. However, when dealing with others, you need to be more diplomatic and not arrogant. You must go your own way. . When that cartoonist comes to visit, why don’t you be more tactful and help others step down?

Zhu Qing suddenly transformed into a life mentor, with an instructive tone.

Is there something wrong with me going my own way? Xia Yu was surprised.

It's not about whether there is any problem...

Zhu Qing looked into the junior's bright and clear eyes and closed her mouth as soon as she started speaking: Okay! No problem!

The two sat down to eat.

However, Erina and Erina did not leave immediately. They sat in their original positions. The small table they were on was temporarily requisitioned by Xia Yu as a painting table. The tabletop was filled with papers and pencil stubs, and there were also many in the small paper basket next to them. Crushed waste paper.

Huh!

At this time, Xia Yu's calm aura dispelled the anxiety of the two of them. Ying Lili glanced at the table, probably due to occupational disease. When her eyes caught the white paper, there was a serious air between her eyebrows.

Sketch painting...? Ying Lili glanced sideways at Xia Yu and Zhu Qing, who were chatting while eating, pursed her lips, and her eyes were full of curiosity. Looking at the mess on the table, she knew that it was a practice work that was created not long ago.

Recalling the scene when she just rushed into the store and saw Xia Yu holding a pencil tip, Ying Lili's clear blue eyes showed a strange smile. She smiled, covered her mouth, and shook her body. .

why are you laughing!

Erina asked in a low voice next to her, very unhappy, thinking that the golden retriever was laughing at her, and because Zhu Qing and Xia Yu couldn't get into trouble, she could only stare at her close friend angrily.

No, it's not... Ying Lili couldn't explain, so she took out a practice sketch, pointed at it and said, This is a painting by Chef Xia and Lecturer Xia! Let's enjoy it together!

There is ridicule and joking in the language.

Of course, Yinglili means no harm, and chefs are also real people. In addition to cooking, they have other hobbies for self-cultivation, such as painting, which is quite normal.

The two of them looked at Xia Yu's practice paintings intently, eh!

The Golden Retriever Bai Dog, who was snickering just a second ago, had shock written all over his face.

This, this can't be possible!

Ying Lili looked at the standing character drawing on the paper. It was an ancient chef holding an ice blade. Under the hood was half a weathered face. Although there was no background drawn, you could tell from the character's movements that the chef was climbing. Those piercing eyes clearly show the courage to move forward and never look back!

detail!

Even the layman Erina Nakiri was attracted by this painting.

Different from the commonly seen comic characters, this character's standing drawing is too rich in details, from the left arm that climbs and stretches out, and the right hand that holds the ice blade, the bulging muscles, to the weathered carvings on the face, and the look in the eyes. The flash of light, the fold details of the clothes on the body, the scar marks on the bare feet...

The breath coming to my face!

After looking intently for a long time, Erina discovered that her suspicious close friend, Erina, was flipping through a whole stack of sketch practice drawings like crazy. The further she went, the more confused she became.

If you spend time piling up, most painters can do this, right? Erina said softly. There are not too many excellent painters in this era. After being bombarded by countless exquisite CG original paintings on the Internet, this practice painting is amazing at first glance. But after a few more glances, it’s just a line drawing without coloring.

You can't say that! It depends on the details of the painting skills!

Eiri pointed to the practice painting in Erina's hand, Let's just talk about the body shape and human body of the characters. There is a lot more to learn specifically. Nowadays, there are many schools of human body painting. How should I put it? Chef Xia's painting skills are more realistic. , as for the style of painting...

She looked through a pile of practice drawings with uneven levels, and opened her mouth to speak.

It's obvious that he looks like a novice, and his painting style is chaotic, but his technique gives people a very solid, even heart-shaking feeling. What is going on here? Ying Lili complained silently.

soon.

The two said goodbye to Xia Yu and Zhu Qing, but before leaving, Ying Lili specifically asked Xia Yu for the sketch practice drawing of an ancient rock climbing chef.

…

Should life go on or on?

Xia Yu just set aside part of his time to familiarize himself with drawing. To reach the level of a professional cartoonist, he also needed to incorporate screenwriting, storyboarding, design and other skills.

Although learning comics is a personal interest, if it weren't for the task rewards of 20 talent points and 1 supreme lottery, he wouldn't have to focus on it. He might as well give more guidance to students.

You still have to keep up the good work of cooking!

In the next two days, under the tacit understanding of Xia Yu and Ryunosuke Kubo, the news gradually subsided. Fans who had been fighting in forums and social platforms called it a day.

this day.

Ryunosuke Kubo's personal studio received an unexpected visitor.

Chef Lei Zhe!

Opening the door, Kubo Ryunosuke bowed in awe. Faced with a sudden visit from a Lin giant, he felt very nervous.

Teacher Kubo, do you agree to let me be your co-cooking researcher for Gourmet Hot Blood Comics?

Lei Zhe said slowly.

ah!

Kubo Ryunosuke was stunned by a Rinchu collaborator who was thrown from the sky. After a while, he trembled with sincerity and fear: Are you sure?

The assistants in the studio looked at each other in shock.

This is the first time for a Linchu collaborator to appear in the comics industry. In the past, popular food comics could hire special chefs, which was enough to support a professional and authoritative brand. Even Kubo Ryunosuke himself could not imagine the earthquake that would happen to the food and manga circles after this news was exposed.

I don't want any reward, just a small request.

Please tell me——

Kubo Ryunosuke said humbly.

At this time, after being rejected by the star chef of the Sapporo competition, the depression accumulated over the past two days was wiped away!
