Uncle Zhao returned to the village before dawn, and Tian Shao was boxing in the courtyard. So she still wanted to live in a big house. The house had a courtyard and it was convenient for anything. She could box and plant trees. When the comic company started to make money, she got the royalties.
When the time comes, we'll look for it in secret.
Secretary Duan came over at noon, carrying grapes, jujubes and other fruits. After putting them down, he said with a smile: "Xiaotian, Jingmei called and said that everyone is here. Xiaotian, when do you think the interview will be held?"
Tian Shao thought for a moment and said: "Those who arrived today must be very tired after sitting in the car for so long. Let them rest for a night and then interview again tomorrow morning! By the way, Secretary Duan, are you okay with seconding these painters to help me?
Additional subsidies?”
Secretary Duan shook his head to express that he was unclear, and said: "When I get back, I'll call and ask. But Xiaotian, they all have units, and they get rations and wages every month. Even if Jingmei gives them a subsidy, it shouldn't be much."
Tian Shao knew this would happen. She said: "Secretary Duan, they draw comics for me, and I get royalties for each issue. I want to share part of my royalties with them in the future. This should not violate the law."
Rules, right?”
As for how much I will give, there is no rush. We will decide when the time comes.
Secretary Duan can't make the decision on this matter: "I will convey your intention to the leader."
"That's troublesome."
In the evening, Uncle Zhao came back with a worn bag.
Tian Shao took out all the paintings in the bag and counted eighteen pairs. She unfolded all the paintings, most of which were landscape paintings, as well as pictures of night banquets, hunting and ladies.
Uncle Zhao said: "I have brought all the paintings, and there are more than forty books that I have not left at my nephew's house. I will bring them back when I go back next time. Xiao Shao, this time I spent a total of one thousand two hundred
Yuan, the rest is here."
After saying that, he handed the envelope in his pocket back to Tian Shao.
Tian Shao gave him two thousand yuan yesterday. She was originally worried that it was too little, but she didn't expect to keep half of it. She knew Uncle Zhao's temperament, so she took the money without hesitation.
The next day, Duan Shen came to pick up Tian Shao and went to Jingmei. This time he did not put Tian Shao down and leave, but accompanied him the whole time. Even when Tian Shao was assessing everyone, he was patiently waiting outside.
This was specially ordered by Liao Buda. First, he was afraid that Tian Shao's tender face would not be able to suppress these painters, and Duan Shen also had concerns about these people; second, he also wanted to know what questions Tian Shao would give those painters.
In fact, Tian Shao's question was very simple. She randomly gave the characters from two comics to these artists and asked them to draw them. She believed that these artists were good at drawing, otherwise they would not have been selected here, but the drawings were also
Those who have aura. This is a test to see if they are suitable for their own comics. Their styles are different.
Among them was a middle-aged man with gray hair. After getting the figure painting, he immediately stood up and asked: "Little comrade, is our test paper wrong? Sun Wukong can do somersaults on the clouds, and a somersault can travel thousands of miles."
, there is no need to ride a motorcycle. And it was impossible to have a motorcycle in his time."
Yes, I met someone who is more serious.
Tian Shao said very kindly: "This is a second creation. Comrade, please follow the original picture first. If you have any questions, I will explain it to you later."
The middle-aged man looked a little confused, but he finally lowered his head and started painting. When the others saw this, they had doubts but didn't ask any more, and they all started painting seriously.
The exam lasted two hours, and Tian Shao collected the paintings as soon as the time was up.
Half an hour later, Tian Shao handed a list to the staff of Jingmei and said: "Let these eight people go back, and the remaining twelve people can stay."
Duan Shen asked: "Xiao Shao, how do you judge their merits?"
Tian Shao said: "The painting skills of these painters cannot be said to be good, but these eight people are not suitable for my comic characters. The things they drew are not what I want."
Duan Shen was full of questions and didn't understand what Tian Shao wanted.
Tian Shao placed his own painting of Furukawa and the painting of an eliminated candidate on the table, and asked: "Secretary Duan, what do you think is the difference between these two paintings?"
This is quite easy to distinguish. The Furukawa painted by Tian Shao is not only handsome but also has firm eyes, while the character in the other painting has a stern face like a little adult.
Tian Shao said: "Secretary Duan, I have already selected the people, and I will leave the rest to you. I have to go back to school when school starts tomorrow, otherwise my roommate should be anxious."
"Go ahead!"
Tian Shao carried his backpack and left happily. What she didn't know was that not long after she left, the eight unsuccessful painters were not convinced and asked Jingmei's leaders for an explanation.
At this time, Duan Shen was talking to the leader and did not leave.
The leader was the oldest person in the group. He asked: "We came all the way, but we were only asked to draw some weird characters, and then they said we can't do it? Our drawings are better than the originals. Why?"
It won’t work.”
The leader of Jingmei didn't know Tian Shao's selection principles, so he looked at Duan Shen.
Duan Shen asked: "What's your name?"
"Li Qingyu."
Duan Shen asked the staff to find his paintings, and then took the original manuscripts for comparison. Seeing this, he was speechless.
Li Qingyu painted Wu Neng, who is also Zhu Bajie in Journey to the West. Tian Shao’s painting of Wu Neng gives people a ruffian and bad feeling, which makes people think that this character is a little cute; while Li Qingyu’s painting of Wu Neng has a fat head
The big ears are still squinting, which perfectly restores the image of Zhu Bajie in "Journey to the West".
Li Qingyu's painter was indeed better than Tian Shao's, but the character painted by Tian Shao was obviously more likable. Now he suddenly understood what Tian Shao meant. The things painted by these people did not meet Tian Shao's requirements.
If you draw it like they do, no matter how good the plot is, people in Hong Kong City won't spend money to buy it.
Duan Shen said: "The painting is good, but if it doesn't meet the requirements, then it's not good."
"What's the requirement?"
Duan Shen said rudely: "As a layman, I can see the problem. You are a painter yourself, can't you see the difference between the two paintings?"
"Of course there is a difference. What I drew is better than the original."
Duan Shen saw at first glance that he was a very stubborn person, but the comic company was still in the confidentiality stage, so he couldn't say more. He said with a straight face: "You are on a business trip this time, and all transportation and accommodation will be reimbursed, and I will give you three more days."
Fake."
The leader of Jingmei also smoothed things over and said: "When I come to Sijiu City, I always go to Dashilan and the Forbidden City to see the Great Wall. It's still early today, so you can go to Dashilan first; tomorrow seems to be cloudy, so it's suitable to go climbing.
Climb the Great Wall."
When Li Qingyu saw that the two leaders had spoken, he did not dare to argue anymore, but he was still unconvinced. Before he left Sijiu City, he wrote a letter to report Tian Shao. After receiving the report, the relevant departments sent people to investigate and found that
This was agreed by the superiors and there was documentation, so the matter was settled.
