Kowloon Police Station, Argyle Street, Kowloon.

"Hey, you have received a reply to your application report for the welfare summer. Are you sure it will be useful?" Guan Zhengfei took out a document and handed it to Lu Dongjie, but he still didn't agree with Lu Dongjie's wild ideas.

"Sure enough, there is someone in the court who can help. Don't worry. Just give it a try. If it works, it will be a surprise. If it doesn't work, there will be no loss." Lu Dongjie took the document, took a look at it, folded it and put it in his pocket.

The Spring Festival is less than a month away now, and time is tight. If we continue to follow the rules and follow the steps step by step, we may lose the opportunity. It is better to try to take a different approach.

Just like what is sung in "Exaggeration": The quieter the crowd becomes, the more they will ignore it. Lu Dongjie must create a topic that is full of discussion. In short, he must make big news and gain attention.

"I won't flirt with you anymore. I have an appointment with someone later. Let's go." Lu Dongjie smiled and patted Guan Zhengfei on the shoulder.

Lu Tongjie took a taxi to the Grantham Education College on Gascoigne Road, Yau Ma Tei. It is a vocational teacher's school located on the hillside and named after the former Governor of Hong Kong. It has a strong colonial flavor.

Lu Dongjie ordered a cup of hot milk tea at an ice shop outside the school gate and sat quietly waiting.

These days, it's troublesome to make an appointment with someone without a mobile phone. If someone has an emergency on the way and lets you fly, there's nothing you can do.

Lu Dongjie is considering buying himself a car when he makes money. The traffic situation in Xiangjiang is becoming increasingly abnormal. In terms of transportation capacity alone, it is really difficult to meet the daily travel needs of citizens.

It is difficult to take a bus or take a taxi. Construction of the subway only started two years ago, and it is estimated that it will take several years before it opens to traffic.

"Excuse me, are you Brother Dong?"

A man's gentle questioning voice came from behind Lu Dongjie.

"It's me. You are Sister Qiqi's cousin, Mingcheng, right? Come on, sit down first." Lu Dongjie stood up, turned around and responded with a smile.

I took a look at this young man. He was wearing a well-fitting Western-style school uniform, his hair was neatly styled, and he was wearing a pair of metal rimless glasses. He looked very elegant.

Isn’t it said that those who engage in art are more wild and abstract in appearance?

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I just had an assignment that I had to turn in urgently, so I was delayed for a while." Li Mingcheng smiled and sat down opposite Lu Dongjie.

This person's behavior is steady, even a little strict, and he doesn't have the air of a young man at all.

"Ha, it's not important. There was a traffic jam just now, and I just arrived. What would you like to drink?" Lu Dongjie smiled and waved his hand to express that he didn't mind.

Although the half-drunk cup of milk tea on the countertop has long since cooled down, the enthusiasm remains unabated.

"I had ordered when I came in just now. I come here often." Li Mingcheng pointed here with a smile, then crossed his hands on the counter, looked at Lu Dongjie and said, "I heard from my cousin that you want me to design a promotional poster."

"

"Yes, we are producing and preparing an album, which may be released in ten days. Now we need a professional to help design a promotional poster," Lu Dongjie said frankly.

"Record poster? Your record company doesn't have art design, or you can hire an advertising design company. How could you find me, a current student who hasn't graduated yet?" It was Li Mingcheng's turn to be confused.

"Don't waste it on others. Besides, I already have a rough design layout and creative concept for this pictorial. Now I just need a professional to put my ideas on paper. It won't be too complicated anyway, of course."

Take care of your own people." Lu Dongjie was embarrassed to say that they were a temporary partner formed by three stragglers, so he could only say nice things.

"Brother Dong, maybe you have misunderstood. Our college has always been known throughout Hong Kong for its rigorous school spirit. The school also has very strict management of ungraduated students. Students in related majors are strictly prohibited from privately participating in commercial activities outside the school.

"Li Mingcheng pushed up his glasses and looked at Lu Dongjie seriously.

He leaned forward and continued: "I can help you design the pictorial, but there is no need to mention money."

"Ah, so that's how it is. I'm so rude." Lu Dongjie couldn't help but sneer in embarrassment.

No wonder Xu Ruoqi had a weird smile on her face when she introduced him to a top student in the art department. It turns out that there really is a free lunch in the world.

"Brother Jie, please tell me your requirements for this poster first." Li Mingcheng took a sip of the lemon tea brought by the waiter and said with a gentle and calm face.

"My idea is to design a comic poster in the style of New Year pictures. The characters for the poster have all been selected, and the three Chinese folk gods, Fu, Lu and Shou, are the main characters. But can these three gods be roughly based on this template?

Outline?" Lu Dongjie took out three photos from his document bag and handed them to Li Mingcheng. They were mug shots of him, Guan Zhengfei and Yin.

"New Year picture poster? Comic poster?" Li Mingcheng took the photo, whispered and repeated it, then touched his chin and fell into deep thought, apparently constructing the picture in his mind based on the ideas provided by Lu Dongjie.

Lu Dongjie was not in a hurry. He picked up the milk tea and drank it slowly, sitting quietly aside.

After a while, Li Mingcheng seemed to have an idea. He took out a brush and paper from his backpack and spread it on the table. Then he stood up and started sketching stroke by stroke. Lu Dongjie saw that Li Mingcheng looked like no one was around and frowned from time to time.

He was making gestures with the photo, and then started writing. Although Lu Dongjie didn't understand art creation, he knew that he couldn't interrupt or interfere with his state at this time, otherwise he might end up with a defective product.

If you are not crazy, you will not survive. This is true for people who engage in artistic creation. A full hour has passed. Lu Dongjie has already refilled two cups of milk tea and went to the bathroom. During this period, the two of them did not exchange a word. One was focused and the other was full of patience.

"Huh, it's finally done. Brother Jie, let's see if the talisman meets your requirements." Li Mingcheng put down his pen, pushed up his glasses, exhaled, and handed the drawn paper to Lu Dongjie.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Let's drink a cup of hot tea first." Lu Dongjie changed him to a cup of hot lemon tea, took the drawing paper and looked at it carefully.

In the center is Lu Xing, modeled after Yin, holding a child in his hands, dressed in deep red and wearing elegant fairy clothes.

On the left is the lucky star based on Lu Dongjie. He is dressed in bright yellow clothes, holding Ruyi in his hand, and has extraordinary tools.

On the right is the longevity star based on Guan Zhengfei, dressed in dark green clothes, holding a flat peach in his left hand, and a dragon-headed stick in his right hand, representing the spirit of immortality.

The lifelike fairy spirit of the three people in the painting came to their faces, which made Lu Dongjie couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Li Mingcheng's painting skills. The overall layout has a sense of painting that is seven points realistic and three parts hazy. How can such a good word be so good!

"Brother Jie, if there is anything you are not satisfied with, I will revise it." Seeing Lu Dongjie's beaming smile, Li Mingcheng felt very proud, but he still asked modestly.

After being reminded by Li Mingcheng, Lu Dongjie also came back to his senses. He had been a little carried away just now.

In Lu Dongjie's opinion, this painting can be regarded as a beautiful piece of art, but Lu Dongjie must consider it from a commercial perspective. Pure art cannot make enough money, and catering to the market is the final choice.

Lu Dongjie took the painting and looked at it carefully, stroking the shallow roots of his chin with his left hand, and suddenly an idea came to him. He took the brush from Li Mingcheng, replaced it with a new piece of drawing paper, bowed his head and started sketching on the paper.

Li Mingcheng was a little curious at first, thinking that Lu Dongjie really had any good suggestions, but when he saw that what Lu Dongjie drew was so ugly, he hid his smile and couldn't bear to look at it.

But as Lu Dongjie's strokes became more and more full, the look in Li Mingcheng's eyes also changed from contempt, to confusion, to shock.

"How about this salty-egg superman? He's very cute, isn't he?" Lu Dongjie put down his pen and smiled at Li Mingcheng. Although he didn't have high attainments in painting, he still had basic painting skills. After all, he was also in the school of Jing School.

There are specially trained ones.

"This... what kind of painting method is this?" Li Mingcheng had never seen this style of painting before, which made him feel very strange, but he couldn't tell where the strangeness was. It seemed unexpected, but it was reasonable, but this kind of painting style made him feel very strange.

The tangled feeling seemed to open a door to a new world for Li Mingcheng.

"Haha, this painting method was created by me. This is also the first time that a work has been published. As a witness to history, you are honored." Lu Dongjie jokingly patted the somewhat confused Li Mingcheng on the shoulder. This kind of pretending to be a pig

The bad taste of eating tigers gave Lu Dongjie a small sense of accomplishment.

"Brother Jie, please tell me how to draw this painting first." Li Mingcheng couldn't help but ask Lu Dongjie for advice. After all, a master is a teacher, and there is no shame in asking.

"Of course, I just want you to reorganize this poster according to this painting method. But let me explain first, I really only have a small understanding of this painting method. You still have to explore it yourself in the later stages."

Lu Dongjie didn't dare to act like a fool in front of this painter.

Lu Dongjie only knew a little bit about the techniques of Q-version comics. Lu Dongjie only told Li Mingcheng some basic elements he knew. However, he did not expect that Li Mingcheng was so talented that he quickly understood what Lu Dongjie said and drew Q

The character in this version is more refined than Lu Dongjie.

Lu Dongjie is really ashamed of his academic talent, which is better than his master. Fortunately, he didn't set out the rules of being a teacher just now, otherwise this slap in the face would have been too fast.

After the two of them continued to carefully discuss and revise the painting style, layout, and embellishment of the poster copy, the poster was finally finalized. At this time, the faces of both of them were excited and slightly tired.

"Then I will come back to you in three days, see you at the same place," Lu Dongjie said to Li Mingcheng with a smile.

"Well, no problem, just wait for my good news." Li Mingcheng stood up and formally shook hands with Lu Dongjie to say goodbye.
