My Cartoonist Guide
Chapter 155: Chance encounter
"Ms. Shen, come here so late?" Ye Hexu smiled.
"Well, the sea of clouds is still some distance away from Hongchuan. It took a while on the road." Shen Xin explained, looking behind Ye Hexu, a young woman with short hair and ears, looking blankly. he.
The woman's eyes are divine, and Shen Xin's eyes are directly opposite.
"You are Teacher Shen, right?"
"Yes, may I ask if you are..."
"Jian Xiaomei, editor in charge of Ye Hexu." Jian Xiaomei stretched out his right hand.
Jian Xiaomei should be less than 1.7 meters tall. Even so, she is still half a head taller than Ye Hexu. This is still on the premise that she is not wearing high heels.
"Hello."
After Shen Xin and Jian Xiaomei shook their hands, their eyes returned to Ye Hexu again.
"Teacher Ye just came?"
"I arrived yesterday, but I live in Hongchuan, even if I go to the live broadcast on the day of the awards, it is completely fine." Ye Hexu touched his nose with a smug expression on his face.
Shen Xin raised his eyebrows, and Ye Hexu was no different from an ordinary boy at this time.
"Ahem, Mr. Ye, Mr. Shen may have to put his luggage, let's not disturb him." Jian Xiaomei said.
"Oh, I forgot. Teacher Shen, if you need it later, you can go to the restaurant on the 26th floor. In the past few days, there will be many cartoonists there." Ye Hexu reminded.
"26th floor? A restaurant?"
There are very few cartoonists in Yunhaiwai that Shen Xin knows.
In fact, even in the sea of clouds, I only knew Chen Zijiao and Zhou Yang. Therefore, Shen Xin is looking forward to who he can meet in the restaurant.
After bidding farewell to Ye Hexu and Jian Xiaomei, Shen Xin went to his room, put away his luggage, washed his face, and picked up the letterhead handed to him by the staff again.
There are a lot of content recorded above, but most of them are related to live broadcasting.
For example, on the day of the live broadcast, the organizer should arrange the hair style and dress decently; the cartoonist who accepts the selection should prepare speeches for emergencies. The next step is the rehearsal of the show and the time for gathering.
The dress rehearsal here does not mean that the award-winning cartoonist will come on stage to read the speech, but the organizer will invite some voice actors and dance performances, and the awards are just interspersed.
Shen Xin read it roughly and knew the general process.
In fact, there is not much content related to the cartoonist, that is, on the last day, the makeup artist sorts out the image, so that the cartoonist is more confident in front of the camera. In addition, it is the order of each program, so as not to advance or delay the show.
As for the thank-you note, it is basically written by the editor or the cartoonist himself in advance. In case of an award, the cartoonist can take the manuscript and express his thanks.
After reading it again, Shen Xin threw the letter on the table.
The awards are far away from him, and the top priority is to eat something first.
After getting dressed, Shen Xin wanted to have a meal with other people. As a result, Yan Fei did not answer the phone, and Gao Hang and Zhou Yang also sent text messages saying that they had gone to Nanjiatan for a stroll.
In an instant, he and Lu Ning were the only ones left in the group.
Shen Xin looked at Lu Ning's number and struggled for more than two minutes before dialing Lu Ning's number.
There was another long beep. Shen Xin scratched his head. Just about to hang up, Lu Ning's voice came from the receiver.
"Hello, Teacher Shen?"
"Hey, are you outside?"
"No. Just washing...cough, something happened just now." Lu Ning said.
"Eating?"
"Anyone else?"
"Temporarily gone."
The phone immediately quieted down, and only after a while, Lu Ning hesitated with a "um".
"I am waiting for you on the 24th floor."
"Level 24?" Lu Ning asked in surprise.
"Well, the 26th floor is also a restaurant." Shen Xin explained.
"Got it. Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes." Lu Ning hung up the phone immediately.
Shen Xin waited about six or seven minutes at the elevator door before the elevator rose from the 22nd floor to the 24th floor.
The elevator door opened, and there was only Lu Ning inside.
Shen Xin raised his hand to say hello and entered the elevator.
A fresh scent came over, and this scent quickly filled the elevator.
Shen Xin glanced at Lu Ning, but saw that Lu Ning was holding her handbag and pursing her mouth, her eyes slanted upward.
Is there something?
Shen Xin also followed his gaze towards the top of the elevator, only to find it was empty.
For a moment, there was an embarrassment in the air.
Fortunately, the time from the 24th floor to the 26th floor was not long, and this embarrassment did not last long.
When the elevator door opened, the influx of air instantly drove away the embarrassment.
"Let's go?"
"Oh."
Lu Ning hurriedly followed Shen Xin out of the elevator.
The entire 26th floor is a restaurant. When you step out of the elevator, it is the restaurant. At a glance, there are a round table with many people sitting around, and two small tables for sitting alone.
The sun hadn't set yet, but there were a lot of people in the restaurant. Several tables were gathered together in twos and threes, talking quietly, and even Shen Xin and Lu Ning didn't care when they came in.
"There are a lot of people." Lu Ning whispered.
"Don't forget, today is the first day of the comic festival. Cartoonists all need to communicate. Besides, in addition to the cartoonists, there are editors and their assistants."
Shen Xin brought three people over, and there should not be too few others.
"Yes."
Lu Ning nodded slightly and looked around. Billboards related to comics were placed on both sides of the passage, and posters of participating comics were also hung on the roof.
I hope I have the opportunity to be invited instead of just being a spectator like today.
Lu Ning sighed secretly, glanced at the billboards on both sides, and whispered: "Huh? There is a "Y\'s" poster."
"Yes, but there are also "Hunting Abyss" and "Crime". The hotel should put posters of the same award together, which is quite interesting." Shen Xin explained.
Lu Ning looked around and found that, as Shen Xin said, the cartoons of different awards were put together.
"Mr. Shen, here!"
The two were about to find a place to sit down, and immediately heard someone calling him.
Only by listening to the voice, Shen Xin guessed that ~lightnovelpub.net~ was speaking to Ye Hexu.
The people around heard Ye Hexu shouting "Mr. Shen", and they also let out a startled sound.
"Ms. Shen? Who is Mrs. Shen?"
"I don't know? I haven't heard of it before."
"Looking at his age, he should be a candidate for the'Newcomer Award', right?"
"Isn't the'Newcomer Award' covered by "ComicFuture"?"
"I'm sure, with the double insurance of "Hunting Abyss" and "Crime", "ComicFuture" should have won."
"This young man is just'accompanying the prince to study.'"
"Yes, yes. But, it sounds like you are not'accompanying the prince to study.'"
"you too!"
"Haha..."
Laughter broke out in the restaurant.
Many cartoonists have been depressed for a long time, and continuous updates have caused physical and mental fatigue.
Only at this time and this place will everyone relax a little bit, without considering serialization or editing reminders.
As for awards, those who have the opportunity are naturally nervous, and for cartoonists who know that there is no hope for awards, this gathering is similar to a carnival, and some ridicules can also be said unscrupulously.
