My Cartoonist Guide
Chapter 229: Low-key
When Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong arrived at Junhao Hotel, the sky had completely dimmed.
The cars lined up to the door of the hotel, the speed was very slow, it took about half a minute to form a 20-meter appearance.
After Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong got out of the car, they queued for nearly five minutes.
The waiters on both sides saw Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong coming in, bowed slightly, and said, "Welcome."
Wang Wenhong gave these waiters a thumbs up, "Do it hard."
When many waiters saw Wang Wenhong, they wrinkled their noses and looked disgusted.
Shen Xin coughed twice, covering up the laughter.
Needless to say, these people once "struggled" with Wang Wenhong, and now they are returning to their old place, Wang Wenhong made a little teasing.
entered the hotel lobby, someone specially led him, took the elevator, and came to the 22nd floor.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Shen Xin immediately felt the difference on this floor-on both sides of the corridor, there were posters of various comics. As the fist product of "omifuture", "The Legend of the Dragon" has the most posters, and "Killer's Diary" is due to I won the best comic award and is the protagonist tonight, so there are a lot of promotional posters, and then "Hunting Abyss" and "Hunting Soul".
At the end of the corridor, many people came in and out. After Wang Wenhong brought Shen Xin into the hall, he went to find other editors.
Shen Xin looked around. There were a lot of people, but few knew him.
Actually, Shen Xin has been serialized on "omifuture" for more than half a year, but the cartoonists who have spoken to him are Ye Hexu and Han Ye, and Han Ye is too introverted, and Shen Xin has not much interaction with him.
As for Wang Yunze, he only met two sides at most.
At this time, the waiter came over with a tray full of drinks.
Shen Xin glanced roughly, whiskey, brandy, red wine, white wine...there are basically mainstream drinks. He didn't drink much, so he took a glass of juice.
"Is this the first time you have come to this kind of occasion?" Shen Xin suddenly heard a voice behind him.
He turned his head, but found that it was a young man he had never seen before. He was wearing a purple suit, his hair was delicately combed to the sides, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curled with evil charm.
Compared with that, Shen Xin's dress is really shabby. The down jacket was taken away by Wang Wenhong just now. She wore only a black shirt on her upper body, jeans and sneakers underneath.
Hmm... Generally speaking, it doesn't really suit this occasion.
But he doesn't need to speak, he is not alone in the whole hall, so it is not a big problem.
"Uh...it is indeed the first time." Shen Xin blinked, completely ignoring the young man in front of him.
"Such an opportunity is very rare for us. However, if you don't pay much attention to your own dress, you can get a good relationship with the editor. If you can make a good impression on the editor-in-chief or the deputy editor-in-chief, then It is very likely to be serialized in the future. This is my experience and it is definitely useful." The young man gave a thumbs up.
"Huh?" Shen Xin looked at the people talking in front of him, feeling a little confused.
The other party also looked kind, and Shen Xin could only follow the young man's words and say "thank you".
"You don't think you are too old, right?"
"Just 20."
Shen Xin took a sip of the juice and glanced around, trying to find someone to come over to end this awkward conversation, but after a glance, he couldn't find anyone he knew.
"That's okay. I heard that this year the magazine society is vigorously discovering new people. As long as we have the ability, we may become popular."
"Really? I don't know yet."
Shen Xin really doesn't know about this. He has been busy with "The Soul of the Game", and Wang Wenhong doesn't want to disturb him with these trivial things.
"No, brother, your teacher is not good. I won't tell you such important things. Which teacher are you following?" the young man asked curiously.
"Uh... Teacher Wang, right?" Shen Xin was not sure.
Wang Wenhong...does that count?
"Wang... Teacher Yunze?" The young man looked at Shen Xin in surprise.
"Of course not, I just met him twice." Shen Xin told the truth.
"Huh..." The young man's expression was relieved, and he was relieved, "Anyway, this competition is very important to us. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Li Jie. I was in a short comics competition held by "omifuture" not long ago. I won the Excellence Award, so I have the opportunity to come to the annual meeting."
Excellence Award? What kind of prize is that?
After drinking the juice, Shen Xin put the empty glass on the tray when the waiter passed by.
"My name is Shen Xin, and I am painting now...cough cough..." Shen Xin did feel that he was talking awkwardly. The enthusiasm of the young man made him a little bit unwilling to dampen the confidence of the other person.
Who can "save" him?
Shen Xin looked around, and Ye Hexu walked out of the crowd after speaking with a few middle-aged people. He met him and greeted him grinningly.
Huh...
finally saved.
As soon as Shen Xin raised his hand to respond, Li Jie patted his shoulder.
"That's Yelaoshr, the teacher who reviewed the short comics not long ago. Let's go, I will show you to him."
No, although I don’t know many cartoonists, Ye Hexu is still one.
Shen Xin looked at Li Jie who hurriedly walked towards Ye Hexu, rather helpless, this guy is really a real treasure.
sighed, Shen Xin could only follow Li Jie towards Ye Hexu.
"Hello, Teacher Ye."
After saying hello, Li Jie extended his right hand enthusiastically.
Ye Hexu raised his head and looked at Li Jie slightly embarrassed, "Who are you?"
"Huh?" Li Jie was taken aback, the smile on his face was a little stiff, "Teacher, my name is Li Jie, the author of the recently painted "Love Is In Progress"."
Ye Hexu put his arms around his chest, pondered for a long time, then raised his head to look at Li Jie, "I remember that I killed this short story."
"It's not ~lightnovelpub.net~Yeteacher, I won the Excellence Award." Li Jie quickly explained.
"That is, after I was killed, the editorial department picked up this comic again." Ye Hexu didn't plan to give it to the other side.
Li Jie opened his mouth, his brain was blank.
Shen Xin felt a little sympathetic to Li Jie. If he was told that, he would probably find a quiet corner to spend the night.
"Ahem... Ye Teacher, maybe you forgot." Shen Xin blinked at Ye Hexu. Somehow others are newcomers, so don't let his confidence be blown away.
"Ah? Oh, there is such a possibility, maybe I forgot it?" Ye Hexu's eyes were erratic, and he took Shen Xin's words over, "By the way, Teacher Shen, "The Soul of Chess" is recent and interesting. I feel "It's going to take off."
"Uh...you are a little bit smart." Shen Xin smiled.
"Of course, my eyes can allow me to observe all the details of the comic." Ye Hexu stretched out his scissor hands and pointed back at his eyes.
Li Jie looked at the two people in surprise, "Teacher Ye, do you know him? Wait... "The Soul of Chess"?"
Li Jie thought of this comic.
"Don't you know him? The author of "God of Chess" and "s" just won the best newcomer award at the comic festival last year... Teacher Shen, are you too low-key?" Ye Hexu asked Shen Xin.
"Really?" Shen Xin felt helpless.
He is not a star who eats on his face, so what is he doing with a high profile?
