Late at night, Zhao Qinyin returned home after finishing his work.
Her family lives in an old community in the east of the city, about 20 minutes’ drive from Chuyu’s home. Thanks to Chuyu’s speed in drawing comics, she usually goes to Chuyu’s home after school and leaves around 10 in the evening. Last weekend, the comics of one episode per week were basically completed with quality and quantity under the joint efforts of the two. It was basically around 11 o'clock when I returned home every night.
Her life may be boring and boring in the eyes of ordinary people. She attends classes during the day, works as a comic assistant at night, and then rests.
However, in Zhao Qinyin's opinion, except for the few days when I first met with Chu Yu, I was a little uncomfortable, but after getting along for a while, I unexpectedly got along well with Chu Yu.
Moreover, the comics that the two of them worked together were even serialized in periodicals like Man Ying. It didn't take long for Chu Yu to put forward the slogan of wanting to reach the top, and this slogan seems to be impossible nowadays.
Although she is not the author of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, she is already very happy just to achieve such results in the comics she participated in. The frustration that her work has been rejected in the past time has also disappeared for most of the time.
She took out the key and opened the door.
It’s different from the dark room in your imagination. Grandma had already fallen asleep during this period of time on weekdays, but today she was a little abnormal. Zhao Qinyin entered the room only to find her grandma looked listlessly at the TV. There are also family photos of her parents and grandfather when she was still there.
"Grandma, you... why haven't you slept yet?" Zhao Qinyin asked.
"Can't sleep, I think of your father and your grandfather." Zhao Qinyin's grandmother is Wu Zhen, she is in her seventies, she is a little short, and her back is crouched.
"Oh, why did you say that your father did this kind of thing? If he didn't want to draw the ghost comics, he would not submit the paper to Shanghai, and no one would call him to go to Shanghai. He and Your mother will not have an accident on the road, and your grandpa will not be too angry, and..."
"Oh, forget it, let alone those, all these years have passed."
"By the way, how did you make up your lesson today?"
"Also... okay, everything is going well." Zhao Qinyin tilted his head slightly.
"You are already in the third year of high school, too!" Wu Zhen sighed.
"The kind of thing that makes up for the poor students of other schools as make-up teachers, or don't do it, you are now in the critical period of high school, how can you have time to take care of other people."
"Although our family is not a rich family, but it is not short of money for supplementary lessons. It is a serious matter for you to take a college entrance examination. If you come back so late every day, I am afraid that you will not have enough sleep!"
"No, it's okay, grandma, for... it's a kind of review to make up lessons for others. It's better than reading books by myself. You see, although I have been doing this part-time job for so long, I His grades have not fallen, and the school exam... has never fallen to second place!"
"Supplementary lessons can help people learn? Really?" Wu Zhen asked with some confusion.
"I told you, you have to get hold of your grades, but you can't learn from your father. He, because his grades were poor at the beginning, and he became obsessed with comics in high school, so after graduating from high school, I went to find a master to learn that stuff. For many years."
"After finishing school, I did not earn any income from drawing those things at home for three years. Later, a comics agency was willing to publish his works. After earning income, I met your mother. Speaking of it, your mother was also caught by your father. Please come to our house to be his manga assistant. The two have been together for a long time, and with the foundation of their relationship, this is where you are..."
"Your parents have been on the comics for half of their lives. Your father said that he will go to Modu and even RB to become a comic artist in the future."
"That's great, the demons didn't go, and people were gone on the road..." At this point, Wu Zhen's tone became excited.
"Speaking of which, if your dad didn't come into contact with those comics when he was in school, he would just study hard. In that case, he wouldn't drop out of high school, and he should still be there now."
"Fortunately, you are not the same as your father. You are much smarter than him and your grades are good. Grandma, I want to see you go to a good university in the future, choose a good major, marry a good person, grandma, I , It can be considered right from your father, your mother, and your grandfather."
Zhao Qinyin has heard Wu Zhen say these words many times.
She also knows how much Wu Zhen hates the comics industry. She has always believed that the death of her father is related to the wrong industry he chose.
when his father was still alive, he blamed his father's life on the comics, and after his death, he believed that the misfortune was caused by choosing the wrong profession.
It is difficult to persuade a person to get into the tip of the horns. Over the years, Zhao Qinyin has also failed to let Wu Zhen put down his prejudice against comics.
For this reason, Zhao Qinyin has always kept secrets from Wu Zhen, whether it is comic creation or as an assistant to other cartoonists. Fortunately, her performance has always been in the first position. The income was not bad, and Wu Zhen agreed to her "make-up" career.
But how long can you deceive in such a situation?
for a lifetime?
Zhao Qinyin also felt confused...
The two chatted for a while, and when it was too late, they both fell asleep one after another.
Zhao Qinyin returned to the room and looked at the snow falling outside the glass window.
I sighed thinking of her deception to grandma all the time.
After all, she is still her father’s daughter. The father and daughter may have different personalities, but their interests and hobbies are surprisingly similar.
......
In Los Angeles in December, the temperature dropped sharply, and the snow in the sky has basically never stopped since it began to fall.
But unlike this cold weather, Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance's reaction in the Los Angeles comic market.
Since the first episode was ranked only eleventh in the voting on the comics, the second episode jumped to fourth, and the number of votes was as high as 14,000 votes.
Since then, although there have been as many as 20 serialized comics on the comics, in fact, the results of most of the works can only be said to be tepid. In fact, the entire Cuttlefish Comics Club is watching the comics. Of four comics.
The veteran author of the Cuttlefish Comics Club, Shen Xin's Devilland, Wang He's Tianshu.
is the secret girl of Dong Yun, the top cartoonist of the original wind fish who came to cuttlefish.
and the newcomer cartoonist who has never appeared in front of everyone, only his editor Su Lu is responsible for contacting him, UU reading Shui Xin.
Throughout the comics industry in Los Angeles, Shui Xin and his work Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance are becoming more and more famous, and the third chapter of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance opens a new chapter in Lost Cat.
After the amazing meeting of the two in the second episode, the scene in the third episode changed. The woman who met Jianxin in the rain fainted and was taken by Jianxin to the place where he lived.
Kenshin also learned the woman's name.
Snow Deba!
The plot that follows seems to be somewhat flat, just the daily life and memories of the characters Gui, Jianxin, and Xuedaiba in the comics, compared to the scene of the fight between Jianxin and the enemy in the rainy night and the meeting with Xuedaiba at the end. The stunning, undoubtedly the degree of excitement has dropped a lot.
Many readers who have been looking forward to it for a whole week seem to be disappointed. Write letters and comments on the website make the author work harder and draw more fighting scenes.
But even so, the number of votes in the third episode still rose sharply, from more than 14,000 votes in the previous issue to more than 19,000 votes in this issue.
This has surprised some people in Cuttlefish who think that the second episode of this work is just a flash in the pan.
Nowadays, most people in the entire Los Angeles comic industry already understand it.
Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance is really a dark horse.
It entered the comic market in Los Angeles at a thunderous speed in this cold winter, and it became the top comic of the three major comic journals in Los Angeles with only three serializations.
Moreover, although it is currently only ranked fourth in the number of votes, people with a discerning eye can see that the popularity of this work is showing an upward trend. At least, the author of Tianshu, who is now ranked third, has dropped to the third place. Crane has already felt the chrysanthemum cool...
