When the final exam results came out, Tian Shao ranked eighth. She fell from first to eighth in a year and a half, and her class teacher Tan Xiu was so anxious to talk to her.
Tan Xiu said: "Tian Shao, I asked the counselor and Qi Lei, and they said you were drawing comics after class. Tian Shao, other students are working hard, how can you be worthy of the country's training?"
Tian Shao said with a bitter face: "Teacher, there is nothing I can do. There is really not enough time."
"As long as you focus on your studies, your grades will naturally improve," Tan Xiu said.
Tian Shao only listened carefully in class and was able to take the eighth grade without reviewing. As long as she focused all her attention on her studies, she would be the first place.
Seeing that Tian Shao didn't speak, Tan Xiu said: "Tian Shao, I know you like to draw comics, but the most important thing for you now is your studies."
Tian Shao said tactfully: "Teacher, I am not drawing this comic for my own enjoyment, but for publishing it in Hong Kong City."
After the plot was written, she had to revise it, and then proofread it for Lou Ziyu and others to eliminate bugs. It was really hard to write three books by one person, plus Changsheng had to grasp the general direction. Tian Shao even wanted to divide the two books, but it was a pity.
No one could take over, and she even regretted that she shouldn't have written so many comics. She should have encouraged animators to create more works.
Tan Xiu thought that Tian Shao not only had helpers, but also had cars to pick him up from time to time. He asked tentatively: "How much did you earn?"
Tian Shao did not say the specific value, but said vaguely: "It's not bad. I bought a lot of machinery and equipment."
This was earning foreign exchange, and Tan Xiu couldn't tell her to stop drawing. He just said tactfully: "Tian Shao, you have to draw comics, but you can't put down your studies."
Tian Shao nodded and said, "I will."
The final results came out, and Tian Shao packed her things and prepared to go home. She had already planned to rest for two days before going to Hong Kong City, and then rush back to Tianjiacun before the engagement.
Yes, Tian Shao chose August 20th as the date for the engagement, and Pei Yue went to ask for leave after the date was set. In this way, the superiors would not hand over any difficult cases to him one month before the engagement.
Mu Ningzhen also packed her things. She had already bought a ticket and was about to go to Yinchuan. She had previously written to a friend who was an educated youth to inquire about her daughter. The other party wrote back saying that her daughter was very good. She was well fed and clothed and had not been abused.
But she had to work at home and take care of her younger siblings. Mu Ningzhen still felt uneasy and decided to go back and take a look.
Tian Shao took two small skirts, one pink and one goose yellow. She smiled and said: "I estimated the height according to age and asked my sister to make it. If it doesn't fit, you can find someone to change it."
She showed Sanya all the fashion magazines and entertainment magazines, and then also showed Sanya the photos she took of beautiful clothes and skirts.
This girl has a strong learning ability, and the clothes she makes now are beautiful and fashionable. Because of her skill, someone in Sanyanjing Hutong has already asked her to make clothes. But Sanya also knows the importance. Although she really wants to make money, she still refuses because she spends so much money.
I feel sorry for her sister for not studying hard.
Mu Ningzhen looked at the two beautiful little dresses and praised: "Xiao Shao, your sister's craftsmanship is also very good. These clothes are more beautiful than those sold in department stores."
Tian Shao smiled and nodded: "She is indeed talented in making clothes. You can ask her to make clothes in the future, and I will give you a friendly price."
At first, she agreed to teach for one year, but seeing Master Yang's attitude, she decided to accept Sanya as her disciple. She estimated that it would take at least two or three years before Sanya starts training.
Sanya has just turned sixteen and is only twenty years old after studying for four years, so she is not in a hurry. Of course, you don’t have to wait until you graduate before you can help others make clothes. As long as you have free time, you can occasionally take a few orders and earn some pocket money.
.
Mu Ningzhen was extremely happy and said, "Then it's settled."
This woman doesn't like to wear beautiful clothes, but she is short of money and the clothes and skirts are too expensive, so she can only suppress her desire to buy them.
After a while, Ling Xiumei came over to help her carry the gift and found that the box was quite heavy. She had no problem and took out a box and a backpack.
Mu Ningzhen grabbed Tian Shao and said, "What is this woman doing? She is so strong?"
She also tried the box just now. It was very heavy and it was difficult for her to lift it, but the girl lifted it easily. She didn't think it was a coincidence and felt that this woman was not simple.
Tian Shao said vaguely: "She is born with great strength, so she was specially invited to protect me."
Mu Ningzhen understood as soon as she heard that it was not convenient to talk about it, and she wisely did not ask any more questions. There were too many secrets about this girl, and after what happened last time Tian Shao was arrested, she did not dare to ask further questions.
In the car, Ling Xiumei and Tian Shao said: "Comrade Tian, the W Comics newspaper office in Hong Kong City wants to do something bad to you because we have robbed their business. The higher-ups want you to go to Hong Kong City, but you cannot show up in public.
Let me go for you."
Tian Shao frowned and said, "But if you do this, you will be in danger."
Ling Xiumei smiled and said: "The superiors will send people to protect me, and I have skills myself so there won't be any problem. The problem now is that it's okay to show up in public, but I don't know about business. You have to go this time
I don’t know anything about negotiating with people from Bay Island and I’m afraid of screwing up.”
Tian Shao smiled and said: "They are begging us, not us begging them. You just need to raise your profile. As for the content of the negotiation, you said you only accept the licensing share. If they insist on buying out, don't waste time."
"Is it that simple?"
Tian Shao laughed and said: "Leave it to Uncle Xing and Chief Editor Gong to discuss the details. You just need to show up and show your attitude."
Of course, the contract must have her signature and seal to be valid. This is the advantage of having the copyright in your own name. She cannot get around the copyright of the work, otherwise the signed contract will be invalid if she does not approve it.
Ling Xiumei knew it well.
Tian Shao looked at her upper body, a gray shirt and black trousers, and said, "I'll take you to buy some clothes in the afternoon, and I'll let you go to the mall to buy the rest after you get to Hong Kong City."
Ling Xiumei said: "Didn't you buy more than a few pieces for me last year? That blue and white checkered skirt will do."
Tian Shao asked: "Xiumei, when you get to Hong Kong City, you will be a K with a monthly income of millions. Do you think it is appropriate for you to wear street stall goods worth 20 yuan for such a high income? At that time, those tabloids will not only criticize you for the poor quality of your clothes"
, and will also question your identity."
K makes so much money, even if he doesn't have a famous brand, he still has to dress generously and decently.
When Ling Xiumei heard that it was for work, she didn't refuse.
Tian Shao asked: "How many people are following me to Hong Kong City this time?"
This question was very tactful, but actually I wanted to know if Pei Yue would go with him.
Ling Xiumei shook her head and said, "I don't know about this. We have to wait until the train station to find out. Comrade Tian, when we get to Yangcheng, you go there first. I will enter Hong Kong City one day later."
