Chapter Eleven Slap Superman
After Guo Decheng failed to confess his love three times, his standards for his girlfriends dropped again and again.
Now he felt that even if a girl with glasses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, a face full of freckles and steel teeth could accept his confession, he would take it without hesitation.
But there are no such girls.
"well."
Throughout the first year of junior high school, Guo Decheng didn't find a girlfriend, but his relationship with Jiang Chao got better and better.
Jiang Chao's junior high school life was still very self-disciplined. During the first year of junior high school, he practiced piano, martial arts, and basketball. The only change was that he no longer dared to skip classes as unscrupulously as he did in elementary school.
Although Jiang Chao still went his own way and did his own thing in class, his grades were always among the top two.
Top two in the school.
Although Guo Decheng has a silly attitude, he is still very motivated. At least he is very serious about studying, and his grades have always been among the top 20 in the school.
As his relationship with Guo Decheng gets better and better, Jiang Chao has gained many little friendship stars. Now Jiang Chao doesn't care so much about his little friendship stars.
When it comes to making friends, just let things take their own course. Making friends deliberately for the sake of little stars is counterproductive.
He found that Guo Decheng was indeed a friend worth making.
Different from Guo Decheng's funny personality, he has a good background. His father is a top leader in Jinjiang City, and it is said that he will have the opportunity to join the provincial party committee in the future. Therefore, Guo Decheng is an out-and-out second-generation official.
Guo Decheng's mother also has a good background. His grandfather is one of the standing committee members of Donghai City, the economic center of China. Although he is about to retire, it is said that he has certain connections in the central government.
Despite this background, Guo Decheng does not have strange bad habits, nor is he as arrogant as those second-generation official Wang Zha in literary and artistic works. He is very low-key, that is, he has a very good relationship with Jiang Chao, and even some teachers in his class
Don't even know his family situation.
What's even more rare is that he was very loyal to Jiang Chao. One time, Jiang Chao was drawing comics in class and was caught by the teacher. In line with the attitude of treating good and poor students equally, the teacher made Jiang Chao stand in the corridor. Not long after, Guo Decheng
He also came out.
"I'm afraid you'll be alone, so I might as well come out and accompany you." Guo Decheng had a mean smile on his face.
Jiang Chao sighed and patted Guo Decheng on the shoulder. Now he is half a head taller than Guo Decheng.
The two of them stood in the corridor boredly. Occasionally, girls passing by with their homework in their arms could not help but glance at them.
"But let me tell you, the paintings you painted are really interesting." Guo Decheng thought for a while and suddenly asked: "By the way, brother, have you ever thought about publishing this painting?"
"Publish?" Jiang Chao was stunned.
"Remember, last time I copied a chapter of your comic, and one of my cousins saw it. My cousin liked it very much."
Jiang Chao shook his head. Although he had some painting skills, this story was drawn hastily and without the use of specialized comic tools, so it simply could not meet the standards for publication.
"Don't shake your head in a hurry. In fact, it was my cousin who asked me to find you."
"My cousin is a professional cartoonist. He has been saying recently that he has run out of inspiration. When he saw your book "Slap Man", he was immediately attracted and praised it full of praise. He also said that if he could add some comics based on your story,
With his professional skills, he will definitely be able to create a very popular comic!"
Jiang Chao was stunned when he heard this and blinked his eyes without saying anything for a long time.
Before Jiang Chao was reborn, a comic called "One Slap Man" became popular all over the Internet. The comic was produced by two authors who determined the storyboard and plot through one person's drafting, and the other person processed the image quality using professional comics.
But for some unknown reason, the world seems to have undergone some strange changes after Jiang Chao was reborn. It may be difficult for "One Slap Man", which was originally created by the two of them, to be reborn.
Because Two, the author who was responsible for drafting the manuscript for the original work, has achieved great success in his career, it is basically impossible to create the original version of "Slap Man". Jiang Chao also searched for a long time before he found some information on the Internet to confirm.
Jiang Chao felt itchy when he thought about that comic, and then he came up with the idea of drawing "One Slap Man" by himself.
His book "One Slap Man" basically copies the original painting that he read before his rebirth. The painting style is weird and the plot is basically unchanged. The protagonist is at full level at the beginning and only needs one slap to deal with the enemy.
"this……"
"How about it?"
"I will think about it."
…
Guo Decheng's cousin is Zhou Ziran, and his name is very neutral. He also has a gentle appearance, wearing glasses, and is tall and thin.
Guo Decheng's mother and Zhou Ziran's father are biological siblings, which means that Guo Decheng's grandfather, a member of the Standing Committee of Donghai City, is Zhou Ziran's grandfather.
With such a background, Zhou Ziran's father also entered officialdom at an early age. Originally, according to his family's arrangements, Zhou Ziran should also embark on this path, but he happened to be interested in comics.
Although his family objected, Zhou Ziran persisted and became a well-known young cartoonist in the Chinese cartoon circle with his solid and meticulous painting skills.
But recently he has hit a bottleneck. Because he discovered that in addition to solid painting skills, wild imagination, fascinating storylines and exquisite storyboards are more important in comics.
The latter requires talent, such as Akira Toriyama's storyboarding, Oda's story rhythm... these things are difficult to learn through acquisition.
Having painting skills but no good stories is like having the best building materials but not knowing civil engineering design, but still not being able to build a good building.
Zhou Ziran was very troubled because he couldn't think of a fascinating story, and it was useless no matter how good his paintings were.
Until Zhou Ziran saw Jiang Chao's sketch cartoon at his cousin Guo Decheng's house...
Let me go, this storyboard, this story, this setting... Zhou Ziran was attracted immediately, and his eyes became brighter and brighter as he looked at it.
When Zhou Ziran asked Guo Decheng that it was his best friend who painted it, an idea suddenly occurred to him.
His storyboards, coupled with my professional painting, will surely create a hit work!
Jiang Chao didn't think about it for long.
A coffee shop.
"Little brother, don't worry, this comic is so popular that we give it a 50-50 split!" Zhou Ziran said excitedly.
Jiang Chao shook his head: "Sanqi."
Guo Decheng blinked but did not speak.
Zhou Ziran hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, 37 is 37!"
Jiang Chao shook his head again: "I am three and you are seven."
Zhou Ziran and Guo Decheng were both stunned.
Jiang Chao continued: "This comic mainly requires you to spend a lot of time creating it. I actually drew the draft very quickly and easily."
Zhou Ziran frowned after hearing this and shook his head seriously: "No! Little brother, the most important thing about a comic is not the processing, but the story. Just like a novel, the story is more important than the writing style. What I do is detailed work, how can I
Take the lion’s share?”
Moreover, what Zhou Ziran did not say is that he actually doesn't care about money. Drawing comics is his dream. If he can create a comic that is popular all over the Internet and prove himself to his family, he is willing to pay for it.
In the end, at Zhou Ziran's insistence, the two settled on a 50-50 split.
Jiang Chao gave Zhou Ziran all the thick stacks of manuscripts he had drawn before.
Zhou Ziran's eyes suddenly lit up: "Have you drawn so many paintings?"
"Well, there are already fifty-nine chapters. I have to thank you for your hard work."
"Haha! I'll start writing tomorrow and I'll show you the first chapter after it's finished."
As a result, Slap Superman Comics Studio was established under the witness of Guo Decheng, and the two parties did not sign any contract. It seemed casual, but it planted a blockbuster for the Chinese comic industry that had been sluggish for a long time.
To Jiang Chao's surprise, Zhou Ziran also added many little stars of friendship to Jiang Chao.
Chapter completed!
