back to innocence

This day Fei Yizhen went to Estar to rehearse as usual, but he saw Estar's personnel manager walking out with a stack of job advertisements. He spotted an original painter among the positions being recruited, and immediately ran up to make friends.

"Does the original painting also recruit part-time jobs?"

The personnel manager suddenly laughed: "It takes a lot of effort to make original paintings, how can it be possible to recruit part-time jobs?"

Fei Yizhen was a little disappointed immediately.

After Ye Minghe finished drawing the publishing house's series of cards, although he continued to do some illustration work piecemeal, they were not very stable.Fei Yi really wanted to help him notice where there was work and he could pick it up.

Estar's original painting is a very good job. It has a large long-term stability and is a big company. No matter how you think about it, it is an ideal job. Unfortunately, they don't accept part-time jobs.

Seeing his disappointment, the personnel manager asked, "Who are you looking for a part-time job for? It can't be that you want to be an original artist, right? Isn't it a very promising thing for you to be your great writer now? You can’t do anything well with a half-hearted mind.”

Fei Yizhen raised his head, looked at him expectantly and said, "It's for my classmate who studied painting together in the oil painting classroom. Their family is relatively financially poor, so my classmate is now doing part-time job as an illustration for a publishing house. But that job The number is not large, and the salary is often high and low. But his skills are very good, we have learned painting together for almost five years, and his talent is very good."

The personnel manager was stunned, and said, "You really know how to draw, this is too embarrassing for us grown-ups."

Fei Yi was really a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm actually not good at drawing. My classmates are good at drawing."

The HR manager thought for a while and said, "Although we don't recruit part-time jobs, we occasionally recruit some outsourcing. But whether you can admit it or not depends on actually seeing your classmate's work. Or you can ask your classmate in a few days. I want an example picture, and we’ll have a look and talk about it later.”

Fei Yizhen heard it, and immediately said in a hurry: "Wait a minute."

He opened the computer bag on his body, took out the thin and light laptop, and pressed the power button.

The HR manager was surprised: "Is it saved in your computer?"

Fei Yizhen said: "No. It means that the illustrations and cards he drew before can be found on the Internet. Can you wait for a while?"

After the notebook was turned on, Fei Yizhen connected to the wireless network, and sure enough, he soon found the relevant finished product pictures and book covers on the publishing house's webpage.Ye Minghe's skills and talents are outstanding, so when the personnel manager saw several pages with different styles, he didn't believe that they were drawn by a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, and asked, "How many of your classmates are you?" age?"

Fei Yizhen said: "He was born in July, he is 15 years old."

"Isn't this real age?" The personnel manager asked with a smile, "Your classmates are of good standard... With this skill, the original painters here may not be able to draw better."

Fei Yi really laughed.

"Give me the webpage address, I'll check back later."

This is basically considered an acceptance, Fei Yizhen was very pleasantly surprised, and hastily gave the address to the other party, along with Ye Minghe's name and his home phone number.

Within two days, Ye Minghe really received an interview notice from Estar, which gave him time to go to the game company with a sample diagram.

Fei Yizhen made an agreement with him to go to Estar together after the oil painting class, and he happened to be able to show Ye Minghe the way.

When they arrived at the Estar building, Fei Yizhen met Qi Wentang at the elevator entrance, who was about to get out of the elevator.Fei Yizhen often goes in and out of Estar, but rarely sees Qi Wentang. This rare encounter surprised him.

Qi Wentang smiled lightly and said, "What a coincidence, Yizhen."

Fei Yizhen felt a little uncomfortable, and didn't want to meet this strange-looking Qi Wentang, but since he met him head-on, he couldn't help saying hello, so he said softly, "Good afternoon, brother Wentang."

Seeing the conversation between the two, Ye Minghe always felt that there seemed to be a heavy gap between them, and because of this, it seemed that both sides were a little distant from others.

Qi Wentang turned his head and saw Ye Minghe standing behind Fei Yizhen, his expression suddenly changed, and then he frowned.

Seeing his sudden change of expression, Fei Yizhen was a little puzzled, and asked, "Brother Wentang?"

Qi Wentang just stared at one direction and did not move, Fei Yizhen followed his line of sight to look over, only to see the inexplicable Ye Minghe, and immediately felt inexplicable.

Qi Wentang stared at Ye Minghe for a while, and then asked Fei Yizhen, "Is this your classmate?"

Fei Yizhen replied with some hesitation: "It's my classmate who studied painting together in the studio, Ye Minghe."

Qi Wentang chewed the three words "Ye Minghe" in his mouth repeatedly, but he couldn't remember where he had heard this name.

After a while, he stared at Ye Minghe and asked, "Did we meet somewhere?"

Fei Yi really felt that this question was really familiar, so familiar that he was a little speechless.Senior Qi, Brother Wen Tang, are you really just asking people like this?

Ye Minghe also felt the corners of his mouth twitch for this kind of sentence that has obviously been classified as a classic line for picking up girls, and he said politely as much as possible: "I have no memory, I probably haven't seen it before."

Only then did Qi Wentang nodded as if he had lost something, and said, "Sorry, I'm being rude. Because you look familiar, you probably look like someone I know, but I just can't remember it for a while."

His words finally restored his level, Fei Yizhen and Ye Minghe nodded to him as farewell, then gave way and entered the elevator.

After entering the elevator, Ye Minghe was still very strange, and asked Fei Yizhen, "Who is this?"

When Qi Wentang came to Estar, he was followed by his own secretary and lawyer, as well as the reception staff on Estar's side. In the eyes of ordinary people, this half-grown young man had a lot of style.

No wonder Ye Minghe was curious.

Fei Yizhen couldn't see any joy or anger on his expression, and said calmly: "The genius boy who graduated from a prestigious foreign school is the largest shareholder of Estar. If you want to pick up jobs here in the future, he will be your immediate boss. But probably because you can't see him." It's the first time I've met him in these three months."

Ye Minghe immediately understood - this is also the proud son of heaven with an unusual family background like Fei Yizhen's. Since Fei Yizhen called him Brother Wentang, there must be some relationship between the two.

Qi Wentang's name was misleading, and Ye Minghe took him as Fei Yizhen's cousin.

Fei Yizhen took Ye Minghe to the HR department for a face-to-face interview. The manager of the HR department looked at his drawings and resume, asked him a few more questions, and asked someone to take him to the art department.

Fei Yizhen has been to Estar many times, but he seldom visited the art department, so he followed the trend.

The meaning of the art department of a game company is actually very complicated. Original painting, 3D modeling and map construction are actually considered art, but the division of labor and even the specialty of each work are different.

Like Ye Minghe, the only thing he can do is the original drawing.The people in the original painting department saw that he was young and were not at ease, so they gave him a test.

Ye Minghe has a solid foundation, so he was not easily questioned. Instead, a group of professionals lamented his solid theoretical foundation.However, it is useless to have a solid theory in painting. Fortunately, Ye Minghe himself draws very well, and the illustrations he brought are also impeccable.

But even so, what he can receive are some relatively marginal jobs.After the person in charge here explained the arrangement and work distribution of the original painting department and the basic points of attention, he arranged a few original painting tasks for him, most of which were large icons, and explained the standard price of a picture here. Let them go back.

In fact, for hand-painting, the price of Estar is still relatively low, but because the size of the picture itself is small, and most of them are some still lifes, it requires less effort and effort, so the price is quite reasonable.

Ye Minghe understood his own particularity and was not too ambitious, so he happily took over the corresponding job.

With the rehearsal down, the time soon came to the day of the game conference.

Liang Qing and Fei Yizhen arrived at the scene very early, but Estar's staff was obviously earlier.The press conference started at one o'clock in the afternoon, but after seven o'clock in the morning, the entire venue was already bustling with activity.

Liang Qing and Fei Yizhen don't need to put on makeup and change clothes right now, so they still have time to stroll around the venue.

At this time, the large screen in the center above the lobby on the ground floor of the Estar building has been replaced with two screens at an angle of 120°. The two screens show two completely different scenes.

It can be seen that the same person appears in the center of the two screens, except that the one on the left is wearing casual clothes and trousers, walking on a long street similar to a modern city. Although the figure is handsome, he still has the look of an ordinary person while the background on the right is a magnificent but dilapidated ancient palace. The young man is wearing a chivalrous robe bunt in the ancient costume style, holding a long sword and walking on the dark and deserted road, showing a heroic posture.

This is obviously the selling point of Estar's intensive publicity: dual identities, two worlds.

Then as the screen rotates, the teenager on the left is shopping on the street, going to the cinema to watch movies in the real world, reading novels, and even dancing and playing ball and even shopping on the real website through an external handle, which shows the authenticity of this virtual community; and The boy on the right swung his sword to slash ghosts and explore the ruins of ancient tombs, and he also seemed more free and unrestrained.

The charm of the inner and outer world is fully displayed.

Although there were not many people in the entire venue at this time, most of them were staff, but even some temporary workers who were not inside Estar were attracted by these pictures.

Liang Qing pulled Fei Yizhen, ran directly to a trial game machine, and decided to play with Fei Yizhen for a while.

Fei Yizhen did not refuse either. He has been a tester for quite a long time, and he is very familiar with the inside and outside world of "Xinbai".

Because it is a test version, the games on these demo screens are not directly started, but some scenes and preset character skills are given, so that players can directly try some core game content.

Liang Qing signaled Fei Yizhen to choose a good character.
