Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 287 Exam Questions
The reason why the three of them came to the headquarters of DreamWorks together on Saturday is because here, to be precise, DreamWorks is recruiting, and the three who are about to graduate decided to come and participate in the recruitment!
Since the three of them attended the painting specialty class at Gezhi Academy, the three of them were considered direct descendants of Two-dimensional Magazine. When DreamWorks decided to recruit, their class was among the first to be notified.

After arriving at the company, they successfully entered Two-dimensional magazine with their student ID cards from Gezhi Academy.

This time the exam took place in a conference room in Two-dimensional, and only this conference room could accommodate so many candidates.

As comics lovers, each of them is full of yearning for Two-dimensional magazine.

It can be said that Two-dimensional Magazine has now become a holy place for comic fans in the entire Hong Kong Island and even in Asia. Every year, many comic fans come to Two-dimensional Magazine from all over Asia as a pilgrimage.

Unfortunately, they couldn't get in at all and could only take pictures outside the magazine.

Despite this, they still enjoy it!

Compared with the shabby situation when it was first established, today there are many more posters, figures, and photos, all of which are hung on both sides of the corridor inside the magazine.

After the three people completed registration at the front desk, they looked left and right, eager to take in everything in the magazine.

"You don't have to be so curious. When you actually come here to work, I'm afraid you'll make yourself sick when you see these!"

The young lady at the front desk who led them covered her mouth and snickered when she saw the appearance of the three of them.

Today, there is no longer just one young lady at the front desk, let alone a part-time job like Zhong Chuhong.

With the listing of DreamWorks, it has gradually become more formalized. Nowadays, these positions are very formal, and part-time positions are rarely provided.

Since there is an exam at the magazine today, there are two receptionists specially appointed.

Of course, although the person in front of her was not as beautiful as Zhong Chuhong back then, she could definitely be called a beauty. When the beautiful young lady answered her, the three innocent boys who had never seen the world couldn't help but blush.

After all, compared with the female classmates in school who don't know how to put on makeup, this young lady who is already working is simply a dimensionality reduction blow.

We came to a huge conference room, where many people were already sitting, many of whom were classmates.

After Xu Jingchen and others greeted him, they found a seat and sat down. After waiting for a while, around [-]:[-], three examiners finally walked into the examination room!

"Hello everyone! My name is Yang Zhiwen, and I am currently the editor of the magazine. There are two people beside me, one is the HR of the company's human resources department, and the other is Li Zhiqing, the assistant of Teacher Long live. This exam will not only determine Whether you can enter DreamWorks will determine which department you go to, whether to go to the magazine or the animation team. At the same time, you may also become an assistant to famous cartoonists such as Mr. Banzai, Ma Rongcheng, and He Zhiwen, so please work hard! "

Nowadays, as the assistants around Li Wannian gradually graduate and start serializing comics, not only does the number of assistants around Li Wannian decrease, but also their desire for assistants becomes huge!

After all, the workload of serializing weekly comics is very huge, and not everyone is as bad as Li Wannian!
What's more, even if Li Wannian is in trouble, he still needs assistants!
Logically speaking, under normal circumstances, this kind of cartoonist recruits his own assistants!But after all, cartoonists are usually busy with work, so how can they not have so much time to find it themselves, let alone find capable and trustworthy assistants? This is more difficult for them than reaching the sky!

In this case, they couldn't help but ask Li Wannian for help.

Therefore, Li Wannian asked the magazine to provide this benefit to serial cartoonists to help them select assistants with sufficient abilities!

These assistants are essentially employees of the magazine, but their wages are borne by the cartoonists themselves. To put it simply, the company and the magazine play the role of a madam... platform!

But this alone is enough to make many cartoonists unable to live without Two-dimensional magazine.

Because most of the assistants are employees of the magazine, they have formal jobs. Even if the cartoonist no longer hires them, they can still join the magazine.

As for cartoonists, it is still a very risky profession. When there is serialization, they will have income. If it is not serialized, they will have no income and no job, so why do they need assistants?
When these people's talents were really discovered and they grew up and became cartoonists, they were born in Two-dimensional magazine. Naturally, Two-dimensional magazine was their first choice for serialization.

It can be said that as long as they successfully pass the exam, they will be controlled by Two-dimensional Magazine and DreamWorks for the rest of their lives!
At this time, there were about 50 people sitting in the examination room, and everyone's expression was very solemn.

For those of them who are learning to draw, there is no company on Hong Kong Island that is more suitable for them than DreamWorks!

As for being manipulated by the other party, they are too willing to be manipulated.

If people want to control themselves, it shows that they are worthy of being manipulated. If they don't even care about you, what's the use of being free?
"Okay, I announce the start of the exam. Next, you need to complete three paintings on these three themes within two hours!"

After the examiner finished speaking, he saw a few lines of words written on the blackboard behind him.

Xu Jingchen and others stretched their necks and stared at the words on the blackboard carefully, only to see that it read:

"Please draw three four-panel cartoons with the following three themes: a shining debut, a corner of the city, and a fierce battle!"

Looking at the test questions on the blackboard, everyone frowned and started thinking.

As the top student in the class, Xu Jingchen understood what the three topics were tested as soon as she saw the test questions.

The debut generally refers to the debut of the protagonist. This depends on the storyboard and composition of the comic, and there are only four frames. Today's storytelling has very high requirements on how to start, change, and combine!

As for the corner of the city, the test should be the candidate's ability to draw the environment. There are many buildings in the city and there are many lines. It is very laborious to draw. Generally speaking, a picture may not be completed in two hours, let alone Let’s talk about four comics!
As for the last fierce battle, let alone that. The most difficult thing to draw in comics is undoubtedly the characters, and the most difficult thing to draw characters is undoubtedly the expressions and movements!
And the most exquisite thing about fighting comics is this!
It is easy to know the intention of the other party's test questions. Not only Xu Jingchen, but also most of the people here know it, but it is very difficult to be able to draw a work that satisfies the other party!
After Xu Jingchen thought carefully for a while, he finally started to write!
