Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 372 Super Speed ​​Yoyo

"A cup of cappuccino, a cup of latte, Mr. Xu, what would you like to drink?"

Chen Weixian took Xu Jingchen to a coffee shop, invited him to sit down, and skillfully ordered two cups of coffee, and then asked Xu Jingchen.

This cafe is located near Xingrong Company. Because of the beautiful environment and good coffee taste, Chen Weixian often invites people to meet here.

Moreover, Xu Jingchen's home is in Kowloon, and it takes less than 10 minutes to drive here, so Chen Weixian drove directly here.

"I just want a latte too!"

When Xu Jingchen was in Li Wannian's studio, Zhong Chuhong, Lan Jieying and others often brought coffee to their assistants, so he gradually got used to drinking coffee.

Until now, if he doesn't drink a cup of coffee in the morning, he can't even be energetic for painting all day long.

"Okay, no problem. This is Li Zhongxing. You already met him in the car just now. Let me introduce you one more. He is a screenwriter from Qilin Entertainment."

"Hello Mr. Xu!"

"Hello, screenwriter Li!"

After saying hello, Xu Jingchen still didn't speak, waiting for the other party to continue explaining.

"That's right, I'm from Xingrong Company, but you may not know that I was the one who promoted the original four-wheel drive project!"

"Manager Chen is very sharp!"

Xu Jingchen said this from the bottom of his heart, because he knew that the original comic "Four Drivers Brothers" was drawn by Xingrong Company after finding his senior brother Sun Jiayu.

This comic is quite popular on "2D Boy" and has even been adapted into animation.

More importantly, this comic directly made the four-wheel drive toy a favorite among children in Hong Kong.

At the same time, Senior Brother Sun Jiayu became a famous serial cartoonist in Hong Kong Island, and he was a particularly wealthy one.

Being able to use his status as a downstream toy dealer to influence upstream comic creation, Manager Chen is naturally very powerful!

"Hahaha, so, this time, I want to launch a new toy, so I would like to ask you to create a new comic about it!"

"Please me?"

Xu Jingchen said in surprise.

"That's right, it was Li Wannian who recommended you to me!"

"The teacher recommended me?"

With that said, Chen Weixian took out a notebook from his bag and handed it to Xu Jingchen.

"That's right, this is the outline written by Li Wannian. I asked screenwriter Li to expand it into a script. Take a look, can you draw it?"

Xu Jingchen did not accept the script immediately, but asked: "Since the teacher recommended me, why didn't you tell me?"

"You don't have a phone at home, and I can't contact you, so I have to go to your home address and come here to find you!"

"Uh……"

Hearing this, Xu Jingchen felt embarrassed.

Well, I think I was delayed by poverty...

"Then let me take a look first!"

For a moment, Xu Jingchen ran out of words and quickly took the script over, only to see "Super Speed ​​YOYO" written on the cover.

Regarding the film and television animation of Yo-Yo, the Chinese children are probably most familiar with the domestic tokusatsu drama "The King of Fire".

This special photo drama, invested and filmed by Aofei Company, became a hit across the country as soon as it was released. But in fact, this is just a commercial, and this Aofei Company is a toy company, no different from the current Xingrong Company.

However, Li Wannian gave up this seemingly bright choice and chose a neon comic, "Super Speed ​​YOYO", which Hashiguchi Takashi began serializing in 1997.

Although this comic is not well-known in China, it was precisely because of the serialization of this comic and the broadcast of the animation that the yo-yo became popular in neon. At that time, almost every boy had a neon in his hand. A yo-yo.

Since the effects of the two works are similar, and "Super Speed ​​YOYO" is better, Li Wannian certainly knows which one he should speculate on... and learn from!

This comic was adapted by Li Wannian and tells the story of a primary school student named Tang Shunyi, who has extraordinary motor nerves and is good at various sports.

During a yo-yo game with my friends, I met Yao Beiyuan, a yo-yo genius.

Tang Shunyi was impressed by Yao Beiyuan's superb ball control skills in the game, so Tang Shunyi became obsessed with yo-yo and vowed to surpass Yao Beiyuan.

In just half an hour, Xu Jingchen read the entire script.

To be honest, the story of this comic is relatively old-fashioned, and its structure is equivalent to that of a typical sports show. The two protagonists are friends and rivals who influence each other throughout their lives and grow together.

But this kind of structure can at least make this comic not ugly. There is a bottom line.

Therefore, after reading it, Xu Jingchen couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"The script is correct!"

"Thank you!"

Li Zhongxing, who had been silent until now, replied.

To be honest, he has no interest at all in this cooperation.

As a screenwriter, what he pursues is to create a movie script and then be valued by the company as a director, rather than being called over to write a script for a comic.

It's a pity that this is Li Wannian's business. Even if he doesn't want to do it anymore, he has to bite the bullet and go ahead.

As for Chen Weixian who came to him, Li Zhongxing could not afford to offend him either.

He is well-informed and has long known that this future uncle may be the uncle of the Li family and a relative of the boss's family. How can he offend him?

Therefore, despite his reluctance, he spent a lot of energy and wrote the script in two days.

"Mr. Xu, did you agree?"

"Basically, there's no problem. I'm very grateful to Manager Chen for finding me, but I still have to talk to the teacher!"

In fact, Xu Jingchen wished she could agree immediately!

I have been an assistant for two years, and I have long imagined that Feicheng and the others would become serial cartoonists.

That guy Feicheng relied on a copy of "If I Were an Emperor". Now he not only bought a luxury car, but also a mansion. He lived a luxurious life, which made Xu Jingchen very envious.

Now as long as I draw this comic well, although the money I earn is not as much as that of Fei Hao, it is enough to improve the lives of my family and myself.

However, he knew that agreeing now would make the other party look down on him, so he needed a reason to delay.

Moreover, the outline of this comic was written by the teacher after all. I need to communicate with him to better grasp the rhythm of the entire comic.

"It should!"

Although Xu Jingchen did not agree immediately, Chen Weixian was very happy because he had already seen that Xu Jingchen in front of him was already attracted.

It was only a matter of time before Xu Jingchen agreed.

Although Chen Weixian only met Xu Jingchen for the first time and had never seen Xu Jingchen paint, he was very assured of his ability.

After all, this is the person Li Wannian recommended to him. How could a person who can be affirmed by Li Wannian be bad?
