Is this cartoonist mentally ill?.

Chapter 273 Interview Meeting

Yang Shuzhun also finished reading the latest episode of "Chainsaw Man" at this time. After reading it, the muscles on his face twitched a few times.

"What a...madman."

He couldn't help but curse, "Is this kind of plot... really something that anyone can come up with?"

In his work "Protoss", he actually created a group of lunatics called the Equipment Department.

But after Yang Shuzhun read the plot of "Chainsaw Man", he suddenly felt that the madmen in his work were just a group of problem children.

A real madman should be like Dentsu.

It is right to ignore all laws and morals. It can even be said that there is no such thing at all.

With love in mind, I made Makima into a meal and ate it...

This is the craziest place, okay? !
But Lin Qingshan was already crazy.

No cartoonist can accumulate a lot of popularity with just one short story—unless someone like Junji Ito has drawn dozens of excellent short comics.

After all, excellent short comics accumulate reputation, while excellent long comics actually accumulate popularity.

Therefore, countless fans came to this interview.

But thinking of Lin Qingshan's past that was exposed online, Yang Shuzhun was speechless again.

Then, with everyone's doubtful and curious eyes, he rolled forward and stood up!

As for Gu Qianli... it can only be said that she happened to have work to discuss today, so she had no choice but to not come.

"teacher!"

But after all, they are comic fans, not as crazy as star-chasing fans, and the things they shout are just funny words.

But there were fans taking photos and shouting all around.

"Teacher, I heard that the first part of "Chainsaw Man" is coming to an end."

This caused a burst of laughter from the comic fan community.

Yang Shuzhun suddenly said with high spirits, "But this is just right. The next third part of "Gods" will be my peak work! Come! Lin Qingshan, let's show off!"

This time it was still held in the open air, but it was much more formal than the previous autograph sessions.

As a short comic, the quality of "Edgewalker" is quite excellent.

Seeing Lin Qingshan's unconcerned look, some comic fans became even bolder and said, "Teacher Qingshan! Let's do something cool!"

The comic company seemed to have anticipated this and specially arranged a professional team to protect Lin Qingshan's personal safety.

Therefore, "Fire Fist" only strengthened Lin Qingshan's already good reputation.

Tang Wei said at this time, "Next week will be the final episode of the first part, but I heard that there will be an interview session before the final episode, and Mr. Qingshan will appear at the scene."

After Lin Qingshan and others arrived at the venue, they also entered the venue under the protection of security personnel.

"Teacher Aoyama! That's great! I understand everything!"

……

But Lin Qingshan smiled at this time and said, "Okay! I'll give everyone the whole job! Everyone, get out of the way!"

Even the three assistants Ayumi Ito and Wu Shiqing were frightened by Lin Qingshan's sudden movement.

"The first part of "Chainsaw Man" is over, but with the current popularity of "Chainsaw Man", the popularity of the second part will be even higher."

It is not a hot-blooded shounen manga, nor is it a cunning but popular evil comic like "Chainsaw Man".

However, this method is even more than ten times more difficult than drawing an excellent novel.

"Teacher Qingshan! I like you!"

Some people even played the real thing offline and shouted, "Old thief Qingshan!"

But he was just joking, at most Lin Qingshan just made a gesture.

When it came to "Chainsaw Man", the large number of dense memes and excellent plot made Lin Qingshan's popularity completely explode.

"But it clearly smells like Teacher Aoyama!"

"Teacher Aoyama!"

After all, with the serialization of "Chainsaw Man", Lin Qingshan's popularity is higher than before.

However, due to the short length, it is more about making Lin Qingshan famous for his reputation.

"What? "Chainsaw Man" announced that it would cease publication after the completion of the first police chapter, and Lin Qingshan announced that he would start a new comic series?!"

On Wednesday, looking at the surging crowd outside the car window, Wu Shiqing couldn't help but sigh and said, "So many fans came here today..."

However, what he didn't expect in a few days was...

Lin Qingshan took his three assistants and editor Ayumi Ito in a nanny car arranged by the Manga Company, and was protected by the Manga Company's security personnel as they arrived at the venue for the interview.

Yang Shuzhun said in disbelief.

Lin Qingshan was also amused and laughed.

Although "Fist of Fire" is a long comic, Lin Qingshan did not choose to publish it in serial form. In addition, "Fist of Fire" is indeed a relatively niche comic.

Then he rolled up, did what a gymnast would do after landing, raised his hands in the air, and yelled, "Everyone, look at me!"

Finally, he made his left hand and right hand merge into a straight line, and then tilted to the upper left corner, making an extremely neutral posture.

"Handsome!"

Lin Qingshan shouted and said with shining eyes.

Ah this...

Everyone was stunned, Lin Qingshan had done a good job again.

But everyone doesn’t think Lin Qingshan’s flowing movements are very handsome, on the contrary...

"Hahahahaha-"

One comic fan couldn't help it anymore, hugging his belly and laughing happily. Then it was like a chain reaction...

"Hahahahahaha..."

"Pfft hahahaha - Teacher Qingshan is worthy of being you!"

"Hahahahaha Teacher Qingshan, it has to be you..."

"Why don't you put the teacher back in a mental hospital? That would be good..."

……

The comic fans around all laughed, and because the comic fans basically took pictures with their mobile phones or cameras when Lin Qingshan came, they recorded the scene directly.

The follow-up will naturally be posted on the Internet by comic fans, allowing netizens to see Lin Qingshan's whole life.

"teacher……"

Ayumi Ito came forward with a black line on her face, first patted Lin Qingshan's body for the dust on the floor, and then said, "Pay attention to your image..."

"Ayumi, I was handsome just now."

However, Lin Qingshan didn't realize this at all, and felt that the flowing movements he just performed were quite handsome.

Hearing this, Ayumi Ito's face turned darker.

"Teacher... don't talk anymore, let's go in first."

She said nothing else, grabbed Lin Qingshan's arm, fearing that he would do something big again, and said.

"Yes... Mr. Qingshan, the interview is about to start. Let's go in first."

A security captain on the side also said quickly.

"OK then……"

Lin Qingshan immediately cooperated and said obediently.

After all, he is a good little puppy and won't cause trouble to others.

In this way, Lin Qingshan was "escorted" into the backstage of the venue by Ayumi Ito, three assistants and the staff of the comic industry.

……

This interview seemed to be more formal than before. Lin Qingshan actually had to put on makeup when he entered the backstage.

At the same time, he also changed into a small suit jacket, and then he and Ayumi Ito went to the interview venue.

"Welcome Mr. Aoyama and his editor-in-chief, Ms. Ito."

The host said to the comic fans in the venue.

Immediately, there was warm applause from the comic fans.

Lin Qingshan and Ayumi Ito also said hello to the comic fans in the audience.

After receiving cheers and warm applause, the three of them took their seats.

Then the host finally started the question and answer session of the formal interview session.

"Then here, the first thing we want to ask Mr. Qingshan today is, what inspired you to create the comic "Chainsaw Man"?"

the host asked.

Lin Qingshan blinked, he was just a copycat, where did he get the inspiration.

Then he had no choice but to raise the microphone and said, "Actually, it's just a fantasy survival story about a man starting a dog."

"Oh? It is said that the pet dog raised by the teacher at home is named Pochita, is that true?"

The host was speechless for a moment and asked again quickly.

"Well... yes, Pochita is a very well-behaved puppy I know. He is my friend."

Lin Qingshan gave a thumbs up and said, "Just like Pochita in the comics."

Immediately, this reply aroused discussion among the comic fans below.

"So it seems that "Chainsaw Man" is actually a story created by Mr. Aoyama based on himself. He raised a dog named Pochita, and Denji also raised a dog named Pochita, so Mr. Aoyama is Denji. !”

"This equation, you really are! A genius!"

"Then what was said on the Internet before is all true. Aoyama-sensei is not only Denji, but also Hayakawa Akira, and what happened in Aoyama-sensei's past..."

"It should be true, but the host probably wouldn't ask Teacher Qingshan this. It's too bold."

"Teacher Qingshan is also a very miserable man... Alas, he has a promising future, but something unexpected happened in his family."

"So I'm really curious, why did Mr. Aoyama's brother do such a thing?"

"Please look at Makima! Makima, the dominating demon, is actually a metaphor for the role of mother in the comics."

"In the manga, Denji's father is not a good person. Does this mean that Mr. Aoyama's father is not a good person either?"

"I really... really want to ask these questions, but unfortunately... I can't."

……

The comments from the manga fans in the audience did not affect Lin Qingshan, Ayumi Ito and the host on the stage.

After all, they are so far apart.

The host then asked, "Then I would also like to ask how Mr. Aoyama created the character of Makima."

Speaking of this, Lin Qingshan suddenly became unambiguous and said directly, "Actually, the prototype of Makima is a parasitic organism from nature - the double-disc fluke!"

"The prototype is a parasite?"

The host and the comic fans in the audience obviously did not expect this answer and said curiously.

"Yes, this kind of parasite usually ends up parasitizing on snails, and the 'eyes' of the parasitized snail will look like Machima's eyes, with overlapping circles."

Lin Qingshan introduced with a smile.
