Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 15 I Can't Believe
"Of course, it's true!"

While Li Wannian's two assistants were shocked, Li Wannian was also shocked when he looked at the two assistants that Uncle He had found for him.

Uncle He, are you too awesome?I need two assistants who can paste grid paper. Why did you find two masters for me?
As a comic lover and practitioner, he had heard the names of Ma Rongcheng and He Zhiwen in his previous life.

Ma Wing-shing is known as the "God of Hong Kong Comics" in later generations. He is almost the most famous cartoonist in the Hong Kong comics industry and even the Chinese comics industry. His representative works such as "Chinese Heroes" and "Wind and Cloud" are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It has been remade into various movies and TV series.

In his previous life, Li Wannian didn't miss it.

As for the other He Zhiwen, although he is not well-known, he is also an excellent cartoonist, and was once the chief cartoonist of Yulang Organization.

His masterpieces: "Love Story", "Guys and Dolls", "Heaven Has Love", "Rogue Lawyer", "Peerless Two Prides", etc. are also very well-known comics.

Let these two Hong Kong comic masters be your assistants,
What is a surprise? This is a surprise!

How could Li Wannian not agree?
"In that case, you all stay!"

"Why don't you try their level?"

"No, I can trust the person you chose, Uncle He!"

Who doesn’t know how to paste grid paper?What level are you still trying?

In fact, because they are still young and have a lot of room for growth, if you really train them, they might be able to help you draw more things!
The two were overjoyed when they heard that Li Wannian agreed to stay.

Especially Ma Rongcheng, who gave up his job at "Good News" and came to this small workshop just to be able to study with Teacher Long Live.

Now he only has one question, is the person in front of him really Teacher Long live?
Uncle He seemed to have seen Ma Rongcheng's inner thoughts, so he took the initiative to say: "Since there is no problem, let's go out to eat together, and let the two of them work at your place in the afternoon to try their hands!"

Li Wannian naturally agreed to Uncle He's proposal, but Ma Rongcheng and He Zhiwen, two brats who were like minions, certainly did not dare to raise any objections.

Together with Li Wanshan, the group went out like this!

But what they didn't know was that all of this was seen by a figure not far away.

"Yihe Printing House? This name sounds familiar!"

In the office of Yulang Company, after Qi Yunjie listened to the report from his subordinates, he felt as if he had heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.

At this moment, he saw the "Death" comic on the table and suddenly remembered it. He immediately picked it up and saw a line of small words written at the bottom: Yihe Publishing House.

"That's it! No wonder that guy Awen wants to resign!"

Almost instantly, Qi Wenjie figured it all out.

No wonder He Zhiwen chose to resign. It turned out to be because of this long live!
However, at this moment, Qi Wenjie didn't care about such a little assistant at all. What he was more concerned about was that he had found the whereabouts of Long Live!

Thinking of this, he quickly walked towards Huang Yulang's office.

At the other end, Li Wannian, who had eaten lunch and took a nap, walked out of the bedroom and came to the studio to check the work of the two new assistants.

After the meal, the homework he assigned to his two assistants was to draw a page based on each of his three comics.

Li Wannian's move was naturally to test their respective levels and their styles.

Ma Rongcheng drew the page in "Bleach" where Ichigo fights Orihime's brother, the page in "MasterChef" where Liu Angxing makes magical mapo tofu, and the page in "Pokémon" where Pikachu fights against the Spearows. That page.

What He Zhiwen drew was the page in "Death" where Ichigo and Lu Kia met, and the page in "Master Chef" where Master Abe died.

After watching it, Li Wannian had to say that Ma Rongcheng's painting skills today are indeed not as good as He Zhiwen's. "Awen, overall there is not much problem with your painting. Although the movements are a bit stiff, the expressions of the characters are quite well drawn..."

It has to be said that He Zhiwen, who has received professional painting since childhood, has been practicing at Yulang Company for another year, and his painting skills are indeed very good.

Especially in portraying emotions through the expressions of characters, he has a unique talent.

No wonder, He Zhiwen later became famous through romance comics.

Compared with He Zhiwen, Ma Rongcheng's comics are simply unbearable to watch!
"Acheng, look at your painting. The strength of the lines is not obvious enough, the characters' movements are somewhat deformed, and their eyes are dull..."

Every time Li Wannian pointed out a mistake, Ma Rongcheng's heart sank a little. His carefully painted paintings were actually said to be useless by Li Wannian.

And compared with He Zhiwen, who is one year younger than him, he is far behind.

Are you really that bad?

For a moment, Ma Rongcheng was a little depressed.

At this time, Li Wannian seemed to realize that he had said too much, so he said: "Of course, this is all due to your lack of basic skills. It's okay to practice hard now!"

Unlike He Zhiwen, Ma Rongcheng grew up in a poor family and was self-taught in painting. He has never experienced professional painting studies, so his basic skills are very poor, which completely conceals his talent.

Later, being able to become a comic master was the result of talent and hard work.

"Really? With my ability, I'm afraid it will affect Teacher Banzai's work, right?"

"It's not that exaggerated. All you have to do now is paste the grid paper. As for the rest, we'll talk about it after your abilities improve!"

"Paper grid paper?"

He Zhiwen and Ma Rongcheng said in surprise in unison.

"Long live teacher, I think I can do other things with my abilities!"

He Zhiwen thought that his ability was good, so he took the initiative to recommend himself.

"I know, but you are not familiar with my style yet. Please work with me for a while before we talk!"

Seeing what He Zhiwen wanted to say, Li Wannian waved his hand and interrupted him.

"Okay, I'll start working first, you can do whatever you want!"

Just like that, the two of them sat aside awkwardly and watched Li Wannian arrive in front of the workbench.

He has moved the workbench at home here. At the same time, his father Li Chongjun is also looking for someone to go to Neon to customize the best workbench. It is estimated that it will take more than ten days to arrive.

As usual, Li Wannian closed his eyes first and began to conceive of what he wanted to paint. When all the ideas were completed, Li Wannian opened his eyes and started painting.

I saw Li Wannian holding a pen and writing on the paper with almost no pause. After a while, a beautiful figure appeared on the paper.

This scene deeply shocked the two assistants, especially Ma Rongcheng.

If he was still half-convinced about Li Wannian's identity as Teacher Long Live before, now he has completely believed in Li Wannian's identity.

If Ma Rongcheng had not seen such a painting method with his own eyes, he would never have believed it!
