Chapter 182: Hesitation and Surprise
"I'm sorry, I caused trouble to Ms. Yan yesterday, so I ran over to apologize to Ms. Yan early this morning." Shang Haozhi looked apologetic, but his face couldn't hide his fatigue.
Shang Huaizhi should have found out last night, but he arrived today. If it wasn't for flying, the two of them would probably be exhausted.
However, the incident happened suddenly, and it may be difficult to buy a plane ticket. It seems that he must have come by car.
"Sister Yan, have you talked about it?" Shen Xin asked in surprise.
It was indeed beyond Shen Xin's imagination for Yan Fei to be with them.
"No."
"Why?" Shen Xin was puzzled.
"I don't want to have too much contact with them." Yan Fei tried not to look at Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong, "That would only confirm the rumors."
"I really reserved an editorial position for you." Shang Haozhi sighed.
"I can find a job myself, and I don't need your charity." Yan Fei refused.
Shang Haozhi touched his mustache, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Mr. Shen, as a reader, I hope you will not be impulsive, because this is your first comic. If you really stop drawing, your future development will be affected." Yan Fei said seriously.
"I know, but if you lose your temper, it will be difficult to come back. As for the ending of "ys", after the contract expires, I will draw the second half of the comic." Shen Xin said.
"The contract is over?" Yan Fei asked in surprise, "I remember you signed a 10-year contract."
Shen Xin nodded.
"You can really procrastinate." Yan Fei's hair was black.
"It happened for a reason, everyone should be able to understand." Shen Xin said helplessly.
"Since you already know what's in your mind, I won't say anything else. I'm fine here, just ask "ys". As for the two of them...I want to talk to you about something." Yan Fei turned her head and looked at Shang Haozhi, "Let me tell you clearly that I will not go to "ic future". Please don't use my entry as a condition to win Teacher Shen's sympathy and approval. I want to talk to Teacher Shen and show your sincerity."
Shang Haozhi laughed dryly, but did not make a sound.
"Okay, I have nothing to do, so I brought you here. Next, what you can talk about with Mr. Shen depends on your sincerity. Mr. Shen, I will go back first. If we have time, we can talk to you again." Chat alone."
"Well, let's talk later."
Shen Xin nodded, with Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong here, he didn't have time to talk to Yan Fei.
After closing the elevator door, Shen Xin returned home again.
"Sit down, you two. There's nothing at home, so why don't you have a drink?" Shen Xin took out two cans of Coke from the refrigerator and handed them to Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong.
Shen Xin put the pencil in the drawing book, and then sat on the single sofa.
Shang Haozhi was not polite either, and after sitting down, he drank two mouthfuls of Coke and recovered a little.
"Mr. Shen, I am sincerely sorry for what happened yesterday. Not only did Yan Bian be involved, but you were also involved." Shang Haozhi sighed.
"Yeah." Shen Xin nodded slightly, "Boss Shang deliberately ran over from Hongchuan, not just to apologize, did he?"
"Cough cough..." Shang Haozhi coughed dryly, then smiled lightly in front of him, "Mr. Shen, have you thought about what will happen next year?"
"No.
"Shen Xin said without thinking.
"Huh?"
Shang Haozhi was taken aback.
In a normal plot, shouldn't Shen Xin express her worries about the future in front of him? On the other hand, on behalf of "ic future", he extended an invitation to Shen Xin, and both parties got what they wanted, and everyone was happy.
The word "no" directly disrupted his script.
"The reason why I drew manga was because I was short of money. Now that I don't have financial pressure, I also want to finish my studies. Moreover, although I have been drawing manga for a year, I feel that my drawing skills still need to be improved." Shen Xin seriously Said.
"Do you want to improve again?" Shang Haozhi's eyelids twitched twice.
The reason why "y's" won the newcomer award was due to the plot on the one hand and the painting skills on the other.
At least among the cartoonists of the same age group, there are very few people who can compare with Shen Xin.
Already at this level, still want to improve?
Shang Haozhi stroked his beard, "I think Mr. Shen, your painting skills are good enough."
"Not enough." Shen Xin shook her head, "Besides, with my current painting style, there are too few types of comics that I can draw."
"Eh? You mean, you're not going to draw romance comics anymore?" Shang Haozhi was surprised.
"Why do I still draw love comics?" Shen Xin was puzzled.
"without."
Shen Xin's answer was somewhat different from Shang Haozhi's expectation.
"That's a pity. I thought your next book would be romance comics. "IC Future" lacks high-quality romance comics."
"I've let you down." Shen Xin apologized, "But it's not my intention to only draw one type of manga. So, it will take a while to get in touch."
"How long will it take?" Shang Haozhi asked.
"It should take half a year, right?"
In fact, Shen Xin is not too sure. After all, Takeshi Obata's drawing skills are very good. Even with the manga capsule bonus, he still feels pressured.
Shang Haozhi frowned, hesitating.
Some cartoonists are good at drawing romance comics, if you change the genre, you may not be able to enjoy it. In fact, there are indeed many cartoonists who have disappeared from everyone's field of vision because of the failure of transformation.
Wang Wenhong glanced at Shang Haozhi, understood the hesitation in his heart, and looked at Shen Xin anxiously.
Shang Haozhi remained silent, undecided, whether Shen Xin and "ic future" could reach a cooperation was in his mind.
Wang Wenhong rubbed his chin, looked past Shen Xin, saw the picture book on the sofa, his eyes lit up.
"Mr. Shen, is that your picture book?"
"Yeah. I was bored just now, so I drew a few pages at random." Shen Xin didn't expect that Wang Wenhong would move his eyes here.
"Can I take a look?" Wang Wenhong asked.
"Because I want to change the style, so the painting is not very good." Shen Xin reminded.
"It's okay." Wang Wenhong quickly waved his hands, "Just take a look."
Shen Xin felt that it didn't matter, it was just a sketch anyway, so she casually handed the album to Wang Wenhong.
Shang Haozhi also leaned over. Although these are just sketches, the cartoonist's drawing skills can be reflected from the sketch paper.
When Wang Wenhong turned to the first page, he saw a child holding a sunspot with his thumb and forefinger and putting it on the Go board.
"Mr. Shen, your drawing skills are good, but the way you hold the chess pieces is wrong. It should be that the middle finger is on top and the index finger is on the bottom, holding the chess pieces." Shang Haozhi reminded.
"En." Shen Xin nodded in response.
He doesn't know how to play Go, he's just imitating "Soul of Chess".
Wang Wenhong turned to the next page, and a long-haired man placed a white piece on the chessboard using the technique Shang Haozhi just mentioned. At the same time, there seemed to be an aura overflowing from the paper, which shocked people's spirits.
But looking at the painting carefully, the momentum disappeared again.
Wang Wenhong was about to turn the page when he suddenly found Shang Haozhi's finger pressing the drawing paper.
"The editor-in-chief..."
Shang Haozhi's eyes were bright, and a rosy luster appeared on his face.
