Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 446 Sword Saint Sword God

"Have you started making it yet?"

"Very good, if you need anything here, just tell me!"

"You two must work closely together and tolerate each other!"

After warning Lu Ziying, Li Wannian hung up the phone.

Sure enough, money can make all the difference. After such a large amount of money was spent, the enthusiasm of the people below was mobilized, and the project progressed faster than Li Wannian imagined.

"Jingle Bell……"

As soon as he hung up the phone, the phone in Li Wannian's hand rang again.

"Gan!"

Li Wannian couldn't help but curse.

Looking at the various papers and pens placed on his work table, Li Wannian felt a headache.

Why is it so difficult for me to paint with peace of mind?

In desperation, Li Wannian had no choice but to answer the phone again.

"Boss, I'm Ah Can. I want to see you for something. Is it convenient now?"

Acan's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Acan, who is now the new general manager of Shenlong Company, will not disturb Li Wannian during this period. After all, he is busy with internal matters within the company.

Today, he suddenly wanted to find him, which made Li Wannian feel a little more doubtful.

"At 5 p.m., I have something else to do at the moment!"

"Ok!"

Although it's not yet 3 o'clock, Ah Can is very happy to see Li Wannian today!

After all, he was not Cai Zhizhong, and he could not go to Li Wannian at any time without going through communication.

Originally, he had been mentally prepared and considered himself lucky if he could see Li Wannian within three days.

Now it doesn't take three hours, I'm really lucky.

After hanging up the phone again, Li Wanshang breathed a sigh of relief, his ears could finally be quieter.

Li Wannian focused his attention on "One Piece" to be painted.

Unconsciously, this year is about to pass halfway. Li Wannian's "One Piece" has been serialized for more than 40 chapters. The plot has also gone through two small chapters of "Clown King" Bucky and Sirob Village, and has come to a new chapter of Sea Restaurant.

With the successive appearances of the villains Bucky and Crowe in these two chapters, the popularity of the "One Piece" comic has grown.

To be honest, at the beginning, although everyone was very interested in the world view of this comic, the strange style of painting and the childish protagonist made people feel that this was a comic with a limited upper limit.

However, as the plot progresses, readers who read it become more and more fond of this comic. Now, the popularity of this comic has even ranked second, second only to "Slam Dunk".

The reason why it is not as popular as "Slam Dunk" is not that "One Piece" is not good, but that "Slam Dunk" has been too popular recently!

After half a year of serialization, Shan Jingshou finally contributed his famous scene: kneeling on the ground crying, saying from the bottom of his heart to Coach Anxi: "Coach, I want to play basketball!"

And then came the upcoming opening of the provincial competition, which raised readers' expectations to the top.

In comparison, "One Piece" is still in the East China Sea chapter at this time, and Luffy is still recruiting people. His first breaking point will be in the Alabasta chapter, so now it is completely adults beating children, not at all. On the order of magnitude.

As for Li Wannian's other work, "Rurouni Kenshin" only ranked fifth.

Logically speaking, in the "2D Shonen Weekly", being able to reach fifth place in popularity is already an outstanding achievement. Many cartoonists may not be able to draw fifth place until they die.

But this person is Li Wannian, and everyone's expectations for him are to be ranked first. Ranking fifth is a failure for Li Wannian.

In fact, the current plot of "Rurouni Kenshin" is already very good. The reason why it is not very popular is that its style is somewhat inconsistent with "Shounen Weekly". Some people even say that if this manga is published in "Girls Weekly", it may not be popular. You can go directly to the top three. However, no one is in a hurry about this. After all, comics like "Slam Dunk", which were out of the top ten in popularity when they were first serialized, are now ranked number one, right?

Everyone is full of confidence in Li Wannian.

In any case, with the continuous development of these comics, "Second Dimension Youth Weekly" has finally stabilized its sales, and even has a tendency to develop towards its previous peak sales. This has also made both Second Dimension Magazine and DreamWorks Breathed a sigh of relief.

But in contrast, it also increased Li Wannian's work burden.

In the past, only serializing one or two comics made Li Wannian's life very comfortable. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible. Serializing three comics at the same time makes Li Wannian very irritable.

But no matter how irritated he was, he still had to be patient and continue painting.

What he is currently drawing is "Sword Master" Johnny and "Sword God" Joseph.

It is said that if he had not been stopped by "One Piece", Hawkeye might have died in the restaurant on the sea.

Of course, the painting style of these two "strong men" is relatively normal compared to other weird characters.

It was not difficult for Li Wannian to draw, and soon the "ordinary" images of the two people appeared on the paper.

Looking at the appearance of these two people, Li Wannian was a little doubtful. In this time and space, can they still have the reputation they once had?

"Dong dong dong..."

While Li Wannian was still immersed in drawing comics, there was a knock on the door.

Li Wannian frowned subconsciously, and then glanced at the time next to him. It was already five o'clock.

Sometimes, Li Wannian really seriously doubts that the flow of time when drawing comics is completely different from that in normal times. Otherwise, how could he explain that time passes so fast?

"Come in!"

In this way, Li Wannian simply cleared the table before speaking to the outside.

Sure enough, not long after, Acan walked in with a flattering smile.

"Boss, I'm sorry to bother you!"

"Tell me, what's the matter? Do you have to come to me today?"

Nowadays, if you want to see Li Wannian, you usually call Li Wannian's secretary Chen Farong first, and then Chen Farong arranges for a meeting on Monday.

Like Acan, who bypassed Chen Farong and contacted Li Wannian directly was already disrupting the process.

After all, Li Wannian wanted a secretary for this purpose in the first place.

If everyone is like A Can and can look for him whenever he wants, then Li Wannian will never be able to paint with peace of mind.

"Okay, if you have something to say, please tell me quickly. I'll give you ten minutes!"

"Yes, teacher, that's it. I heard that DreamWorks Animation is preparing to launch an original animated film?"

"You are very knowledgeable, so why do you also want to make an original animated film?"

"No, no, the boss gave this task to them, so naturally they are more suitable. How can we do something we are not good at?"

"Then what are you doing?"

Li Wannian was very satisfied with Acan's attitude. If I don't give you some things, you can't take them away!

"That's right, we want to make original TV animation!"

Just like that, Acan smiled and said his purpose.
