Chapter 160
"It's me. Didn't you lose your wallet? Take it!"
Looking at Hojoji who had been in a daze, Li Wannian waved his right hand holding the money, finally waking up Hojoji.
"I……"
However, the moment he stretched out his hand, he was stunned again.
The reason why I want to submit my work to "Champion" is that I hope that one day I can draw a work that defeats Banzai.
But once you accept his money, you will be owed a favor. How will you compete with him in the future?
No one knows what the brain circuit of Hojoji is, and no one knows what the essential relationship is between owing favors and competition.
Of course Li Wannian didn't know either.
Therefore, when he saw Hojoji's stunned look, he thought he was moved, so he directly put the money into Hojoji's hands, "Just think of it as borrowing this money from me. When you succeed in the future, I will give the money to you." give me back!"
"Hojoji Temple, why don't you thank Mr. Banzai!"
Sawajiri Shi on the side was almost crazy with anxiety and did not hesitate to remind him.
"Thank...Thank you!"
After hearing whether to lend or not, Hojoji was confused in his heart, and finally felt relieved. It was just a loan, and he had to pay it back, so it didn't count as owing a favor!
"Sawajiri, is this also the author of "Champion"?"
When Li Wannian heard the name of Hojo Temple just now, he was really surprised.
After all, this talented cartoonist from "Jump" came to "Champion"?
"Yes! He submitted a manuscript to our editorial department before, and I saw it, so now he has become a writer under me. I hope he can become an outstanding cartoonist like you one day!"
"I certainly will!"
As soon as Sawajiri finished speaking, Hojoji said impatiently.
"Hey, hey, can you wait until you finish learning the comics knowledge before we talk about serialization?"
"Editor Sawajiri, don't worry, I will definitely work hard!"
"What's the comic knowledge you just talked about?"
Li Wannian didn't know much about Hojo Temple, more about his deeds after he became famous, but he also knew that in terms of painting skills, Hojo Temple was enough to rank in the top five in "Jump".
If you want to ask which author in "Jump" has the highest achievements, there may be many answers, but if you want to ask which author has the smoothest career, there is only one answer, and that is Hojoji.
In the original time and space, he entered the finals of the "Tezuka Prize" in 79, and immediately attracted the attention of Shueisha's editor Nobuhiko Horie.
Then, without giving up his studies, he published the short comic "I Am a Man" in the supplementary issue of "Weekly Shonen Jump" in 80, officially entering the ranks of professional cartoonists.
Then in 1981, after graduation, he immediately published the short comic "The Three Cat-Eye Sisters" in the 29th issue of "Weekly Shonen Jump", which became a huge success.
Later, "City Hunter" was launched in 1985 and became a classic comic that will go down in history. It has even been remade by Jack Long, Lee Ming-ho, and Philippe Lachot, and is famous all over the world.
"Although Hojo is a genius, his basic skills are too poor. He needs to hone his painting skills!"
Sawajiri Shi said a little helplessly.
"Well, I'm going to stay in Neon for a few days. If you have any questions, you can come to me and I'll tell you everything you know!"
Li Wannian's warm invitation shocked both Sawajiri Shi and Hojoji.
Sawajiri Shi: Li Sang is so kind that he can take time out of his busy schedule to help a stranger in a foreign country.
Hojoji: Bastard, why are you so nice to me?What is it about this that touches me so much?
Li Wannian: Brother, I'm sorry. I want to copy your "City Hunter" later, just to make it up to you!
"Editor Sawajiri, Editor-in-Chief Kamura is free now!"
At this moment, the back office staff from the editorial department came over.
"Okay, I'll come right away!" Sawajiri agreed quickly, and then winked at Hojoji: Agree, agree!
"Then... thank you!"
Looking at the sincere Li Wannian, Hojoji couldn't say the words of rejection. "Hahaha, come on, you are definitely the next pillar of "Champion"!"
Li Wannian patted Hojoji on the shoulder, turned and walked towards Hibimura's office.
Sawajiri took the opportunity to come to Hojoji Temple and said, "In the past two days, you will stay with Banzai and learn from him, you know?"
"They are so nice!"
Looking at Li Wannian's back, Hojoji couldn't help but sigh.
"You are so tall! Do you remember what I said?"
"Remember, remember!"
Hojoji, who was scolded inexplicably, quickly replied.
Sawajiri Shi didn't care to continue to entangle with Hojoji, but turned around and quickly caught up with Li Wannian.
"Chief Editor-in-Chief Bicun, long time no see!"
"Li Sang, I'm really sorry. I was suddenly summoned by the president just now and kept you waiting for so long!"
"No, it would be nice to visit the editorial office!"
It was obvious that the two of them had a pleasant cooperation, but when they met again, there was a slight gap between them.
As the saying goes, we can only share adversity, not wealth. At this time, we are still far away from real success, but both parties are taking precautions and taking precautions before they happen.
In the final analysis, the two have a loose cooperative relationship, and both have limited trust in each other.
"The magazine has invested huge resources in promoting Li Sang this time. The president just summoned me for this very reason!"
"Thank you so much. I will work harder to paint in the future!"
The other party's meaning is very obvious, that is: We have spent a lot of money to promote you.
And Li Wannian's meaning is also very obvious: Isn't this what you should do?If I become famous, won’t the magazine’s sales increase?
"Hahaha, that's really hard work Li Sang! By the way, Li Sang, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you!"
"Speaking!"
"I heard that Li Sang's company has many peripheral products, but they haven't been launched in Neon yet, right?"
Hearing Bi Cun talk about peripheral products, Li Wannian immediately understood why the other party invited you to come to Neon yourself.
"Is your company also interested in this?"
"Of course, I think there will definitely be "Dragon Ball" products in there in the future, right?"
"Yes, we are already doing it, but isn't your company a bookstore? Most of the things around here are toys!"
“Our Akita Bookstore has cooperative relationships with many supermarkets and convenience stores!”
"Sorry, my brother is in charge of the company's peripheral products. If your company is interested in this, you can go directly to Hong Kong Island to talk to the company!"
Regarding the opponent's "surprise attack", Li Wannian needed time to weigh the pros and cons.
Their middleman is definitely not free. It’s hard to say how much of the pie they will get!
But on the other hand, they did provide convenience for DreamWorks products to enter the neon market.
How much benefit one can gain from this, and whether it will suffer losses, all need to be carefully analyzed.
Therefore, he used the pot throwing and dragging tactics to buy himself time to think.
