I have a lot of achievements

Chapter 305 Visiting the Great God
In the afternoon and evening of the 14th, there were originally arrangements, a meet and greet and a CV concert. Because of the 10-point attribute allocation and the achievement of [Professional Cartoonist], Meng Fan temporarily decided to catch up on comics, so there was no go.

The first chapter of the first volume can't get started quickly, and the latter can't stop.

The chapter of "The Strange Man in the Mountain and the Sea" is longer than Meng Fan's previous paintings of "Campus Love Refers to the Boy" and "The Underground Spirit". Let alone the first chapter, the following chapters are also kept above 20P. Mainly 22P to 25P, which is also in line with the length of a serialized episode of the Japanese Manga Weekly.

Naturally, the purpose is to submit an article to Neon, hoping to pass it smoothly, and then serialize it.

The difficulty is still great, but Meng Fan's confidence is also great.

There were outlines, details, character design and scene preparations before, and the newly added attributes could also be said to make Meng Fan overthrow everything before, but it was improved and modified on the original basis, which is like There are already drafts, so the speed of drawing will naturally not be slow.

The second episode started drawing at almost 12 o'clock in the evening. The content of 25P, 1P is divided into 3-5 pictures, and there are more than 100 pictures. Meng Fan finished it in a little over 3 hours, including the post-production.

This speed, if the outside world knows, it can really scare people to death.

Generally speaking, it takes 5 days to 1 week for a cartoonist serialized in Neon Weekly to complete a chapter, provided that there are assistants for post-painting and other work.

Speaking of which, with Meng Fan's current hand speed of +20, it is equivalent to about ten times that of ordinary cartoonists - excluding some handicapped party members and tentacle monsters - if hand speed alone, there is definitely no way to finish it in 3 hours. It was completed within a few days, but with the assistance of superb painting skills and imagination, it can be done.

There are many advantages to having superb drawing skills. One is that there is basically no need to modify it, and the other is that superb drawing skills represent strong expressiveness. Generally, cartoonists need a lot of pen and ink to render the effect that Meng Fan can do with just a few strokes.

So, don't think that the content of the painting is gorgeous because of Meng Fan's superb painting skills. In fact, it is simpler. It's just that these simple brushstrokes can catch people, and even hit the soul.

Well, even so, Meng Fan still overestimated himself, and it was too difficult to get rid of Wuhua.

After finishing the second chapter, it was already past 3:6 in the morning. Meng Fan had the ability to stay up late, and because of his high spirits, he didn’t want to sleep at all.

After finishing the third chapter, I couldn’t bear it anymore and fell asleep for more than two hours and got up to continue. In the fourth chapter, Meng Fan competed with himself on a plot, and spent nearly two hours persuading himself and revising the content before finishing the painting It was already 1:[-] in the afternoon.

Got it!
So be it.

Meng Fan made a phone call to order food, went in and took a quick shower, went downstairs with the sketches, took a quick look at the restaurant in the corner of the lobby, and asked the hotel to call a car for him to Akihabara.

Akihabara is located at the junction of the four major business districts in Kyoto. It used to be an upright electrical street, but now it has grown into a residential district of "glamorous and cheap goods", and it has also become a two-dimensional holy place.

If Akihabara in the electrical age was a straight man of steel, then in Akihabara now you can only sigh with emotion, he must be a boy if he looks so cute.

Akiba was originally the purpose of Meng Fan's trip. After all, he was also a member of the housing circle. How could he not come to the Two-dimensional Holy Land for a walk when he came to Kyoto? However, he came here for a real "pilgrimage". See Oda!
Meng Fan got off the car and arrived in Akihabara. Two-dimensional culture can be seen everywhere. There are many cosplayers on the street. In some stores facing the street, such as coffee shops, there are girls dressed as maids soliciting customers.

After arriving at the appointed place and waiting for a while, a middle-aged man in his thirties appeared in front of Meng Fan. There was no need to carefully identify him. Meng Fan's appearance and figure were really easy to recognize, and he was sure from a long distance away. Yes, but after walking in, I still feel emotional, this guy is really tall and handsome.

"Are you Meng Sang?" The middle-aged man confirmed it, and after seeing Meng Fan nodding, he introduced himself, "My name is Hetian Honger."

Chinese language is not very standard, but basic communication is not a big problem.

This Wada Honger is the referrer arranged by the eldest sister Meng Caiju for Meng Fan, the son of a high-level executive of Neon Toei Animation, who is also working in Toei Animation now, and can be found in the column of producers of some well-known Neon manga animations ...well his father's name.

Now, this Wada Honger is the person in charge of the cooperation between Toei Animation and China's copyright, animation, games, etc., and it is precisely because of this that Meng Caiju can make this Wada Honger find a relationship and make an appointment with Oda for half an hour. , and personally came here to pick up Meng Fan.

"Meng Sang, let me take you to visit Oda's studio first. Around three o'clock, Oda will have a rest time of about half an hour. However, under normal circumstances, it's not bad if you can see him for 10 minutes... Please let me know about that." You can understand."

Wada Hongji led Meng Fan towards the destination. At the same time, he also instructed some things to pay attention to along the way. For example, it is best not to ask Oda about plots related to pirates. ,wait.

Oda Studio can basically be regarded as Oda's home in Kyoto, where his life and work are basically carried out.

Meng Fan has heard some things about Oda Oda, such as going to bed from 2:5 to 16:[-] every day, and working all the time, [-] hours a day!
Of course, this job cannot be done all the time. There are also plot discussions and searching for materials including scenes and characters.

A well-known cartoonist, although equipped with many assistants, the workload is still very heavy. Moreover, Oda is also a cartoonist who has to complete and participate in a lot of post-work, including animation lines.

Not long after, the two arrived at Oda Studio, a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle.

"Wada-san."

Wada Hongji made an appointment. As soon as he came in, a person in the studio came over. The ultimate goal of these assistants is to become a manga artist. For Wada Hongji who holds an important position in Toei Animation and has a good father People must be very warm and respectful, and even Meng Fan was treated courteously.

He Tian Honger had been here a few times before, but he didn't seem to visit the Grand View Garden with Grandma Liu like Meng Fan did. He found a place to sit down and asked his assistant to take Meng Fan for a walk.

In the studio, pirate elements can be seen everywhere, private wine bar, popcorn machine... like an amusement park, there is also a claw machine, all of which are pirate figures, and they are bought on the market If you don't see it, Meng Fan is so greedy.

After shopping around, Meng Fan asked where the toilet was, and then entered the toilet that was the theme of the legendary "Jaws" movie full of excitement.

As for Oda's studio and the workshops of his assistants, Meng Fan couldn't get in.

Then, Meng Fan also met Oda God.

There is not much difference from the photo. Meng Fan, like many OP fans, is definitely concerned about Oda’s physical condition. Some time ago, it was always rumored that he was not in good health and would stop publishing. Now I see a healthy OP. ,very happy.

After the excited greetings, Meng Fan also chatted with Oda for a while from the perspective of a manga practitioner. As for the translation, Meng Fan didn't find anyone else, and directly relied on his mobile phone, but the mobile phone was connected to the live broadcast assistant , The translation is very fast, and the communication is very smooth.

Oda originally thought he was a manga fan, but he didn't expect to be a colleague, and the content of the chat was something Oda was happy to participate in the discussion. In addition, he was quite surprised by Meng Fan's understanding of manga - after all, the drawing skills, setting and screenwriting are not pure It's a number, and the amount of information attached is enough to make Meng Fan's words meaningful, not surprising, but at least it can make Oda recognize and mobilize his enthusiasm for discussion.

Of course, Meng Fan must have also asked some questions about his own doubts and experience during the creation, and Oda was very happy to give answers and his own opinions.

After chatting for a while, Meng Fan naturally took out the sketches he had prepared after Oda asked him whether he also created manga.

Oda took a look, his eyes quickly became focused, and then his expression became more exciting.

Another half an hour later, Meng Fan bid farewell to Oda and Wada Koji, left the studio, and went to Shueisha. At the same time, Meng Fan had an extra letter of recommendation written by Oda in his hand.
