Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 3: Hardcore Fans

[Cartoon: China Ichiban

Status: Released

Number of fans: 512552

Unlocked perk: Recipe

The next stage of privilege: cooking skills (the number of fans needs 1,500,000)]

Tong Yu opened the system panel and looked at the number of fans that had increased in the past few days.

At present, there are more than 600,000 fans, and only one of the privileges has been unlocked, and there are a total of five privileges open to the comic “China One”.

Recipe, this privilege allows Tong Yu to master all the dishes that appeared in the manga “Zhonghua Ian” and reproduce them perfectly.

The same is true for the cooking skills in the next stage. As long as he reaches the specified number of fans, Tong Yu will be able to master all the cooking skills that have appeared in this anime.

As for what the third-stage privileges are, you can only view them after unlocking the second-stage privileges.

Although the sales of comics have reached more than three million in the past few days, the number of fans is only one tenth.

This is not surprising, because there is a difference between “readers” and “fans”.

Readers, just buy it on a whim, and after reading a volume, feel boring and stop reading.

Fans, they really like comics, they are looking forward to the continuation of the following plot, and they are willing to continue to pay for comics.

Tong Yu is not in a hurry. According to the current popularity of comics, it is only a matter of time before all the bonus privileges are unlocked. What he has to do now is to draw all the remaining comics in “China One”.

In half a month, Tōtsuki Academy will officially start school, and he may not have so much time to draw after the official start of school.

Tong Yu also thought about dropping out of Tōtsuki and becoming a full-time manga artist. After all, it is not a problem to have a system and the sales of this manga to live comfortably in this world.

However, as a traveler, since he came to Tōtsuki Academy, he should make a name for himself and become a manga artist of salted fish who eats and waits to die. This is not his ideal.

And the most important point, there are so many girls in Tōtsuki Academy, wouldn’t it be cheaper for others to leave.

In recent days, the Tōtsuki Manga Club has also been pressing harder, so that Tong Yu can hurry up and drive out the story after the super chef, because many fans are pressing for updates.

Tong Yu doesn’t want to lose his fans, and this is also a good opportunity to increase his fans.

Therefore, Tong Yu did not leave Polar Star Dorm these days, and stayed in his room to catch up on drafts.

After another week of drawing, Tong Yu drew more than 30 drawings and handed them over to the manga club.

Like last time, these thirty episodes are divided into two volumes.

In addition to the previous 30 episodes of “China Ichiban”, a total of 60 episodes were released. The plot just ended when the protagonist Liu Subaru and Ren had a “God’s Swordsman Showdown”, and won the victory and was recognized by the Yongling Sword.

After all the 30 episodes were released, readers and fans alike shouted that they enjoyed it, and urged Tong Yu to fill in the following plots as soon as possible. They were even more looking forward to the battle between the protagonist Liu Subaru and the dark cooking world.

Within a week of the release of the new 30 episodes, the total sales of “China One” has reached a terrifying 3000W+, and it has only been half a month since the release of the comics.

This level of popularity has never appeared in any comics before, and Tong Yu’s number of fans has risen to more than one million.

Now he has unlocked the two system privileges of the comic “China One”, and also opened another function of the system.

[Ding, congratulations to the host’s number of fans reaching 1,000,000, now you can designate a fan to become a ‘hardcore fan’. 】

Hardcore fan?

what’s the situation.

Tong Yu asked the system with doubts.

“‘Hardcore fans’, for every 1,000,000 fans, you can set up a fan and establish a relationship through comics, the system and the host. After specifying a die-hard fan, he can also learn the cooking skills and recipes in the comics drawn by the host. , when the cooking skills of die-hard fans reach a certain level, they will gain the privilege of entering the comic world under the conditions allowed by the host.” The system explained.

Tong Yu didn’t understand it very well, and asked again, “What are the requirements to become a die-hard fan? Or I just need to specify it directly.”

“There are no conditions, the host can be bound in person. However, the system suggests that the host should appoint someone with a certain cooking talent. If the cooking talent is too low, some recipes and cooking skills cannot be mastered, and special kitchen utensils cannot be used. The better the talent, the better the entry. The better the comic book world is.”

“Wait, what if this die-hard fan learned the recipes and cooking skills from the comics and ran away without listening to me?”

“Don’t worry about the host, the binding of a die-hard fan is based on the willingness of the other party. Once you become a die-hard fan of the host, as long as the host doesn’t do anything special, he will not betray you. Every time you get the support of a die-hard fan, the host and the die-hard fan will not betray you. Fans can get a reward. And the most basic condition to enter the comic world requires at least three or three hardcore fans.”

There are still rewards to claim, so this die-hard fan must find one as soon as possible. However, it is not easy to choose a cooking talent, and it must be done willingly.

…

Just when “China One” became popular in the whole Neon Country, Tōtsuki Academy was also approaching the opening of the school.

The transfer student assessment is also held as scheduled. Every year, there are many transfer students who want to enter Tōtsuki Academy, and this year is no exception.

in an exam room

“What about the announcement from the admissions department?”

Nakiri Erina folded her hands and glanced at the people who were preparing to take the transfer student assessment in front of her with arrogant eyes.

“Yes, I will read it now.”

Arato Hisako, who was standing beside Nakiri Erina, immediately stood up and read a piece of paper: “First, according to the application materials, a group interview will be conducted in groups of 10, and then there will be a three-course practical test! Those who pass will be … ”

“so boring!”

Before Arato Hisako finished reciting, Nakiri Erina interrupted, “It’s going to waste time, just use this.”

Speaking of which, Nakiri Erina came to the place where the ingredients were placed, picked up an egg, and said, “I just use an egg to make a dish. Anyone who can satisfy my tongue, I will allow him to enter the Tōtsuki Academy! Moreover, it is only allowed in the next Abandon the exam within a minute.”

After saying this, almost all the candidates turned around and fled to the door of the classroom.

Nakiri Erina’s reputation as “God’s Tongue” has a considerable deterrent effect. Since she was a child, she has been entrusted by famous restaurants all over Japan to serve as the role of taste appraisal.

One of her comments can influence the future of a restaurant. If a poorly cooked dish is delivered to her, the consequences can be imagined.

So, many people just ran away, giving up the idea of ​​entering Tōtsuki.

However, only one spiky-headed boy stood there dumbfounded, not understanding why the others suddenly fled.

“Is it all you need to make a dish with eggs?” The spiky-haired boy asked Nakiri Erina.

Nakiri Erina frowned slightly, she didn’t expect anyone to stay here.

“Are you sure you want to do it? Any dish made with eggs is fine, but if you want to give up, show it up!” Nakiri Erina looked at the spiky-haired boy out of the corner of the eye and said.

“Hey, I learned a good egg dish recently, just in time to try it out, please wait a moment and it’ll be right away!”

The spiky-headed boy said and tied the headband that was originally tied around his wrist to his forehead.
