Chapter 203 Contracts and Assistants

( ) "When the time comes, I will trouble you to prepare these photos." Shen Xin said.

"En." Xie Shiqi nodded slightly.

"Next, after each draft, you have to read it from beginning to end to pick out the mistakes in the comics for easy revision." Shen Xin continued.

"It should be fine. If there is something I don't know about in the comics, I can ask Grandpa." Xie Shiqi said seriously.

Since Shen Xin said that there will be a stadium based on "Xie Chengbo's Go Dojo" in "Soul of Chess", she is also more concerned about the whole comic. Taking a step back, even if she can't, she can still ask grandpa.

Basically, the professionalism of this comic can be guaranteed.

"In addition to these contents, there is one more important requirement. You should know "Comic Future", right?"

"When I was young, I liked reading this magazine very much." Xie Shiqi nodded, "But after learning Go, I have no time to read it again."

"Well. "Comic Future" is a weekly magazine, and it is published every week. Therefore, I have to submit the manuscript every week. But before submitting the manuscript, it must be reviewed to ensure that the manuscript has no obvious errors. Of course, I can understand you Since you are a professional chess player, there will be some things that must be done, such as participating in the game, or serving as a game commentary. If you encounter this situation, you must notify me in advance, so I can adjust the progress of the painting. "

In the final analysis, this one is the most critical.

Xie Shiqi just wanted to say "this is impossible", but then she thought that no one can say for sure what will happen next, so she nodded again, "Okay. If there is something urgent, I will entrust Grandpa or someone else Brother, help review the manuscript."

"That would be the best." Shen Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "The next step is the remuneration..."

"No need for this." Xie Shiqi waved her hand, "It has already helped me and the dojo a lot if there is a stadium based on the 'Xie Chengbo Go Dojo' in the comics."

"One yard is one yard, and the rewards and those can't be confused. Besides, if you don't provide photos of the dojo, I may also have a headache."

Under Shen Xin's insistence, Xie Shiqi finally nodded.

In the end, Wang Wenhong gave a price that both parties were satisfied with based on the price of consultants hired by other cartoons, and based on this, he drew up a contract.

Neither Shen Xin nor Xie Shiqi had any objections.

He signed the contract.

"Next, we need your help in the first three chapters." Knowing that time was running out, Shen Xin took out the name immediately after signing the contract and spread it on the table.

Xie Shiqi also took out a notepad and pen from her handbag, preparing to write down Shen Xin's request.

"First of all, here... Zuo Wei is from the Ming Dynasty. He had a duel with another person who instructed the emperor to play chess. At this time, the two sides used ancient Go records. There should be a difference between ancient Go and modern Go. However, this chess record is up to you.”

"Next, there will be a competition between Jin Tengguang and Ta... and Shi Liang. Since Zuo Wei is an ancient man, his chess style is a bit more ancient, but Shi Liang's chess style is different from him..."

"I know, young, but very strong, very similar to Zhen Xi." Xie Shiqi frowned, "Also, Shi Xingyang who came out later is Shi Liang's father, he is also very similar to Zhen Duo."

Yesterday's loss to Zhen Xi still haunts her heart.

"That... I didn't take them into consideration when I was designing the characters. However, Shi Liang's personality is completely different from Zhen Xi's. He has a high degree of concentration on Go."

"I know... I'm fine." Xie Shiqi took a deep breath, "What else should I prepare?"

Shen Xin watched almost every scene carefully, and said all the places where chess records were needed, and Xie Shiqi wrote them down one by one.

"In this way, the photos of the chess club, the Go classroom, and the chess records used, I entrusted Mr. Wang to send them the day after tomorrow. For some relatively simple content, such as the 'grapes' mentioned by the Go teacher after the first chapter, I You can draw the chess record now. After your manuscript is finished, I will come over to review the manuscript.”

Xie Shiqi wrote down her phone number on the contract.

"Then thank you."

Wang Wenhong found two blank sheets of paper, handed them to Xie Shiqi, and asked her to draw the chess record of "Tizi" on them.

"Mr. Shen, are you sure when it will be serialized?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"What issue is "Comic Future" now?"

"The 13th issue, next week will be the 14th issue." Wang Wenhong explained.

"Issue 14...how about 21? I'll start serializing in May." Shen Xin made a rough calculation. Even if he needs to submit the manuscript in advance, he still has more than a month. Three episodes...including the name later, should be can be drawn in advance.

"Okay, I will try to find an assistant for you tomorrow... By the way, there is one more thing, Mr. Shang said, let you prepare two coloring pages, one will be published in the magazine a few issues in advance as a promotional advertisement, and the other Make it the cover of a magazine." Before leaving, Wang Wenhong remembered what Shang Haozhi had arranged.

The coloring pages... The coloring pages of "Soul of Chess" are of high quality. I don't know how far I can go.

Shen Xin thought to herself.

After finishing the consultant's work, the manuscript finally made progress. Shen Xin drew more than ten pages of line draft in a day, and added a few pages of ink lines. She was busy until late at night before resting.

Early the next morning, Gao Hang found Shen Xin's studio.

After the two met, before they had time to greet each other, Shen Xin led Gao Hang around the studio, and finally handed Gao Hang the ink-lined manuscript.

"The school in the manga is not the focus, so just draw an ordinary school. Also, I have referred to some materials about ancient buildings. If there is anything wrong, please help me to modify it."

"Okay, leave it to me."

Gao Hang put the line draft on the table, took out pens, rulers and other tools from his backpack, and began to draw the background on the workbench.

In the afternoon, Wang Wenhong came over with another assistant. He was young, probably less than 25 years old, with a medium build and a relatively thin weight.

When Gao Hang saw Wang Wenhong, he immediately stood up from his seat, pointed at Wang Wenhong and didn't say a word for a long time.

Wang Wenhong rolled his eyes, "You boy, don't hate the wrong person. It was Chen Zijiao who drove you away, and it has nothing to do with me."

Before, he didn't have much interaction with Gao Hang, and he didn't bother to explain some things.

Now that the two of them bow their heads and look up, if the relationship continues to froze, it will definitely affect the progress of the work.

Gao Hang crossed his arms and carefully recalled the scene where he met Wang Wenhong before.

At that time, Wang Wenhong and Chen Zijiao had a good relationship. In his opinion, these two people were "raccoons of the same feather". Bad words.

Is it "accidental injury"?

Gao Hang looked at Wang Wenhong who showed an innocent face, and shook his head again and again, not to be fooled by this guy.

"Don't do anything wrong to Mr. Shen, or I won't spare you." Gao Hang threatened.

Wang Wenhong shivered in fright.

How do you feel... like a villain?

Shen Xin turned his attention away. He and Wang Wenhong had just started working together, and there had been conflicts before. Therefore, it may not be a bad thing for Gao Hang to "beat" Wang Wenhong and make him be more honest.
