Full-time cartoonist

Nakai Hiroshi looked at a room full of Go club members with tears in his eyes.

He still remembered that when the Go club was first established, a poster recruiting new players was posted in the public notice area, but it was torn down by people from the basketball club and pasted with their notice.

After that, I could only stick it in a hidden corner, hoping that one day it would be effective.

Today, the haze is gone, and "Go Club" can already be said to be a popular club.

The way these members were concentrating on playing chess was exactly the scene he had been waiting for!

Experience! Experience!

I finally got my reward today, but fortunately I didn’t give up.

He wiped his eyes hard until his eyelids turned red, and said with deep affection, "Thank you, Mr. Tori Akino, I really love him!"

Dongye Xiang stood aside and shook his head violently when he heard his words.

…

Nobuhiko Horie is at the office.

He first took a look at Xiaozheng's recent rankings.

Of the four works included in the serialization conference last Christmas, except for "The Soul of Chess" and "The Sun Murder Incident," the other two were all cut in half.

He frowned and stretched again.

This is normal. Japan’s number one comics magazine is well-established. Good works are emerging in an endless stream. If there are vacancies, new works will soon fill them.

Just like this, one by one, the waves are sweeping through the sand, and the popular comics are selected.

When he saw the results of "The Sun Murder Incident", Nobuhiko Horie nodded and nodded with satisfaction.

"Sixth place, great stamina, not bad."

Because of the excellent performance of the work, it has attracted many readers of popular literature.

The cooperation with "Literary Spring and Autumn" has initially achieved results.

Then came "Soul of Chess". Sasaki Nao's original evaluation was still in his ears, so he always paid special attention to it.

As Sasaki said, Tori Akino is a genius in the future, and the results of "Soul of the Game" are very good.

The first echelon below "Dragon Ball" and "Yu Yu Hakusho", this time in fifth place.

Mirai Tori Akino is still a newcomer, and he can already get a glimpse of his potential.

Nobuhiko Horie nodded, very happy.

Every talent discovered is a stepping stone for Jump.

He never cared about print magazines or peripheral developments. He was also impartial in the fight between the former editor-in-chief and Torishima Kazuhiko.

As a middleman, just do your job.

This is also the reason why he is as stable as a mountain. What Shueisha's senior management hopes is not a chief editor who is a power struggle, but a chief editor who can bring benefits.

“It’s time to give the title page to Soul of Chess,” he murmured to himself.

After that, he flipped through other documents.

"This is..." Horie Nobuhiko's eyes narrowed.

"You came so early!"

This is an application letter from the Clown Club. The content is...

About the animation of "Soul of Chess"!

""Spirit of the Game" has only been serialized to sixteen chapters," Nobuhiko Horie was puzzled, "Why did it happen so quickly?"

Popular works have to wait half a year after being serialized.

The success of "Spirit of the Game" has just begun, and there is no way of knowing what will happen next. Mirai Tori Akino, a high school student and a new cartoonist, pursues freedom and draws freely. Or maybe the comic becomes mediocre later on, which is very likely to happen.

Animation requires a lot of money, manpower and time. Without enough profit motivation, how can it be possible?

Regarding this aspect, Horie Nobuhiko still needs to think carefully.

He pressed the application first.

…

"Yoshiharaso".

Since the serialization of "The Soul of Chess", all the original manuscripts have been consumed.

The living room studio where only two people draw comics is getting busier and busier.

After class every day, I go back to the dormitory and draw non-stop. Sometimes I have to drink black coffee and work overtime.

Akimiya Akemi, who had just finished drawing a page, went to the bathroom and did not come back for a long time.

Higashino Hibiki just focused on painting.

It wasn't until the screams of "Ahhhh!" came that she looked up in shock and saw Akimiya Akemi, "What's wrong? Something happened!"

"Look," Akimiya Akemi pointed at her eyes, "don't you see anything wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Higashikata was curious.

"Dark circles under your eyes! Dark circles under your eyes!" She turned around angrily, "If you don't find an assistant, I will give up my job!"

Dong Yexiang quickly comforted her, pressed her down on the sofa, and rubbed her shoulders and back.

"I bought three work desks just because I wanted to find an assistant."

"Ah~" Akimiya Akemi moaned comfortably, then rolled her eyes, "Then why haven't you started taking action yet?"

Hibiki Higashino said: "Because we work in the dormitory, I don't want strangers to disturb Yoshii and the others. Consider recruiting Yoshii or Minami as assistants."

As an art student, it is enough to be responsible for some unimportant tasks.

"Hurry up then."

"We'll tell you tomorrow," Hibiki Hibiki said with moderate strength, which made Akimiya Akemi feel much better. "Wasn't it spring break before? I don't want to disturb them from spending time with their families."

…

The next day is the weekend.

After conceiving the storyboard, Hibiki Higashi went out.

He looked at his messy hair and decided to go out and get a haircut.

The bald head from time travel to now has affected normal life.

Came to Shibuya and found a mid-range hair salon.

Tony looked at Higashi Hibiki and frowned, "You have such a good foundation, but your hair style is unsightly. You don't care about your appearance at all."

He was holding the scissors, clicking them, and he was already itching unbearably.

Hibiki actually wanted to have a bald head. Although he couldn't see people during that period, the bald head was really comfortable.

It's a pity that I don't have the courage now.

"Please give me a suitable hairstyle." Hibiki Higashino said.

He doesn’t know what’s popular now, so leave it to the professionals.

Teacher Tony gave a thumbs up, "What a vision!"

After the price was exchanged, Hibiki entrusted the other party with full authority.

Close your eyes and relax, close your eyes and rest your mind.

This has been a rare rest.

When I opened my eyes, I couldn't seem to recognize the person in the mirror.

Slightly curly hair, with a hint of publicity, paired with sharp eyes, changed from the usual mediocrity, becoming radiant and full of aggression.

"Oh! So handsome." Teacher Tony was very satisfied.

But it's not free.

Higashikata looked in the mirror, his eyelids drooping, he was just an ordinary handsome guy.

He still likes it like this.

After paying to go out, I just walked a few steps.

A deliveryman from a ramen shop passed him on a bicycle.

"Yoshii?" Higashikata suspected that he had made a mistake.

How can that person be sure to be Yoshii?

He is the son of a banker. He is not short of money at all and has no interest in working before.

Moreover, we are now in our third year of high school. Why don’t we study hard and start practicing in the society?

He suddenly remembered that in the past few months, Yoshii had only returned to the dormitory at night with a tired look on his face.

He looks just like the working soldier Minami Chiharu!

"What happened?"
