“Okay, I’ll wait.”
The next day, Su Jing brought people to the Tokiwazhuang apartment early in the morning. She brought two people, a fat middle-aged man with a beard and a simple and honest expression on his face, the other It is a girl, quite young, with a round face and a small dimple when she smiles.
“This is Zhang Xuehai, this is Meng Dong, these two are the assistants I recruited for you, and there are three assistants who cooperate with Du Mingyuan, which can greatly speed up your painting efficiency.” Su Jing explained with a smile.
“Zijun, don’t underestimate them. Zhang Xuehai is a professional comic assistant. She has worked in this industry for more than ten years. Although Meng Dong does not have as long as him, she graduated from the Magic City Art School. Teacher ‘Chunyu’ worked as an assistant for a while.”
“Hello, Teacher April.” Meng Dong and Zhang Xuehai greeted together. They were both very surprised. Zhang Xuehai was okay, but he was surprised by Chen Zijun’s age, but the most shocking belonged to Meng Dong. Meng Dong liked ” “Shape of Sound” and “She and Her Cat”, in her spare time, she sometimes imitates Chen Zijun’s style of painting. A few days ago, she learned that she had the opportunity to be an assistant to Teacher April Breeze, and she couldn’t be more excited.
Get up from bed early in the morning and get dressed up, trying to impress Teacher April. In her impression, someone like Teacher Breeze must be a young man in his thirties, but now he is here. I saw that he was older than me… No, no, no, the person younger than me was actually Teacher ‘April Breeze’?
so handsome?
Bah, Bah, Meng Dong, when did you become such a nympho, your idea is so evil, it’s not worth it, but it’s really handsome.
Chen Zijun naturally didn’t know Meng Dong’s **** thoughts, and got to know them briefly.
The space where I live is not too small, but Rao is still a little crowded in the house.
Chen Zijun came to the kitchen and poured them two cups of tea. Then, the formal conversation began. Although it was introduced by Su Jing, it was necessary to discuss and evaluate it.
“I have been a comic assistant for more than ten years, so I can basically do any assistant work, background, drawing, character design… I can do all of these, and the best thing is drawing.” Zhang Xuehai is not the first Once, experienced.
“My salary requirement is 4,000 yuan per month.”
“I’m the best at drawing backgrounds.” Meng Dong just graduated from school a year ago, so in terms of technology, he is not as good as Zhang Xuehai, but he still defended himself: “I can learn, and I can still post online. Okay, as for the salary, you can just look at the teacher and give it.”
These two people have completely different styles. Chen Zijun can see it. Zhang Xuehai uses his assistant as a means of making a living. As for Meng Dong, it seems that he just wants to come and learn.
Chen Zijun has no prejudice. After all, it is normal for people who come for different purposes. He only cares about their strength.
Can you help me draw comics?
As for assistants, each comic book has its own positioning. Some serious cartoonists think that comics still need to be completed by one person to have a soul. However, this requirement is basically impossible for anyone on the market. Likely to die suddenly.
Because the workload of comics is too great, and it is published once a week, one person can hold on for a short time, but there is simply not enough time for a long time. What’s more, some cartoonists have no fighting spirit after earning money.
In the previous life, Eiichiro Oda, who had high requirements for comics, had a good conscience in drawing One Piece. He was an out-and-out model worker. In a year, except for two weeks off for the New Year, he was basically open all year round, and the pictures of the basic dynamic parts were all done by himself. draw.
As for the famous Fu Jian Yibo, who was addicted to mahjong in his later years, his body was covered with red hair, but he was also a model worker when he was young.
As for whether there are single-drawn comics, there are, but very few.
Therefore, the benefits of assistants are revealed, which can greatly improve the efficiency of cartoonists. Chen Zijun does not object to this, because he really needs the help of assistants.
Afterwards, Chen Zijun inspected the two of them, and it was nothing more than the requirements in terms of painting. They all passed it very easily, but the salaries paid were very different.
But for the current Chen Zijun, more than enough.
Chen Zijun called Du Mingyuan over again on the same day. The three of them got to know each other, because they will work together in the future. Three assistants are already enough. Three assistants are very few in the market, not more. The better, sometimes the more people, the more chaotic it is.
Chen Zijun sometimes wonders how the eight assistants of Takehiko Inoue, the author of “Slam Dunk” in his previous life, managed it.
“This is the first three chapters of my new book “April is Your Lie”. UU read www.uukanshu.com, you should read it first to get familiar with it. Du Mingyuan will then draw the background. Now, as for Zhang Xuehai…” Chen Zijun thought about it and said, “Please help me draw the line first.”
Although the arrangement was made, but there was a lack of comic tools, Chen Zijun contacted the old place to buy two sets of comic tools, the kind that were delivered to the door, and the other party readily agreed.
When Su Jing saw this, she said goodbye and left, and let them run in on their own.
The three of them first saw Chen Zijun’s new work, because the finished work of Chen Zijun in the previous five episodes had already been drawn, and the three of them just wanted to get used to this style of painting.
“This is a school romance comic.” The first five episodes clearly showed the story, and Meng Dong liked it after reading it.
Chen Zijun also told everyone about the main line of the story. The details have not been told yet. He just mentioned the main line, but he also mentioned it in one stroke. Anyway, they will know these things in the future.
“Today is the first day. In the evening, I invite everyone to eat barbecue. It is a celebration of everyone’s arrival. The work will officially start tomorrow, so I will ask everyone in the next time.” Chen Zijun smiled.
“Please take care of me.”
“Teacher April, I won’t go. I have to go home at night to look after the children. When work starts tomorrow, I can come, you can go.” Zhang Xuehai said embarrassedly.
He knew that it was not good to refuse the first time, but at night he took an assistant outsourcing job. It was not much, but he could earn a little bit. After all, his living expenses in the big city of Beijing and Chuan were not low, and he had to support his family.
“Okay.” Chen Zijun did not hold back and agreed, but still brought the remaining two to the barbecue restaurant for dinner.
“Mr. April, you are really young.” Meng Dong made no secret of his admiration for Chen Zijun.
