Chapter 14 Tumblbug Invitation

 In the new week, the comic studio officially enters working mode.

After Han Zidong finished handling the lighting of the first episode, he stretched and subconsciously shouted: "Suli, make me a drink..."

Before he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and stopped the car in time.

The two assistants looked at each other, and Park Shengxiu, the maknae, quickly ran to Han Zidong's table, picked up the cup, and asked respectfully: "Writer Nim, what do you want to drink?"

"Hot water." Jin Minxiu added for Han Zidong.

"Yes, hot water."

When Park Shengxiu heard this, she ran towards the kitchen.

Jin Minxiu crossed her legs and said "tsk tsk" twice: "Our boss really regards the popular female idol as his little assistant."

"I'm used to Suli always being around to help, but for a while I really couldn't adapt to her absence."

Han Zidong turned his chair and looked out the window: "She has always come to Jiangbei to look for me, but I have never been to Jiangnan. After we have been busy for a while, I will treat her to a good meal in Jiangnan.



"Drawing cakes again?"

Jin Minxiu swiveled her swivel chair and slid to Han Zidong's desk, leaning forward: "Boss, when will we have dinner in our studio?"

"Do you need to drink at a dinner party? Drinking will affect the progress of your work. If you have this skill, you might as well practice coloring for me. When you two can help me share the pressure, we can have dinner together again."

"It's not such an exaggeration. Yesterday I attended a dinner party for seniors from the 12th class, and we didn't drink much." Jin Minxiu muttered.

Hearing Jin Minxiu's words, Han Zidong turned his swivel chair, stared at Jin Minxiu for a while, and asked: "Why are you going to the 12th annual dinner party?"

"Are you so greedy?"

Han Zidong thought of a reasonable explanation. This woman, Jin Minxiu, does seem to be greedy.

The same thing happened last time when we had barbecue. It was obvious that he was just saying polite words, but the other party actually came over.

"Where is it?"

Jin Minxiu said something guiltily, remembering what she saw at the dinner party last night, she replied: "A close senior who has a good relationship heard that I am working as a comic assistant in an unknown comic studio, and people are afraid of me.

I had little experience and was deceived into working for nothing, so I was taken to learn from other seniors.”

The corner of Han Zidong's mouth twitched. If it weren't for the fact that he and Jin Minxiu were "the same age", he would have been able to legitimately manipulate the other person just because of Jin Minxiu's yin and yang energy.

"Yeah, don't go around ruining my reputation. If I hear any strange rumors, I will deduct 10,000 yuan from your salary."

When the salary was mentioned, Jin Minxiu was instantly suppressed and became honest.

In fact, she didn't speak ill of Han Zidong yesterday, but instead spread the word for Han Zidong.

However, she was severely lectured by several seniors based on their lack of economic and social experience. Due to the deep-rooted senior culture here in the peninsula, she certainly did not dare to directly refute the seniors in the school. Naturally, she felt a lot of sulks, so she did this today.

So weird.

As for confronting her boss in the workplace, her boss is a foreigner and is obviously more open-minded than the locals.

My boss is squeezing my salary, and I am using him as a punching bag. At least I am not losing money this time.

Park Shengxiu secretly raised her head, feeling envious.

He is the youngest and the last member to enter the studio. He is naturally shorter than Jin Minxiu. On the other hand, Jin Minxiu has a delicate appearance, has a good relationship with the boss, and is eloquent.

If the studio's economy is not optimistic, the writer will choose who to stay, and the result is self-evident, so he must have a sense of crisis.

He decided that he would practice coloring all night tonight!

Jin Minxiu didn't know that her existence caused great pressure for a younger generation to survive, but her mentality was still relatively peaceful.

"Boss, do you still need to call Tumblbug customer service today?"

"Yes, let them take my previous project offline immediately. I want to launch a new project. The importance of this matter is second only to the progress of our comics."

Jin Minxiu nodded and pushed the chair back to her workstation.

As if something suddenly occurred to her, she quickly turned around and shouted to Han Zidong: "Boss, you have to repay my phone bill."

Han Zidong didn't even raise his head, busy working on the post-production of the first episode: "Okay, I'll give you 50,000 yuan. Tell Tumblbug that if they don't withdraw my project, I will abandon Tumblbug and choose Fundu."

With a salary increase of 50,000 yuan, Jin Minxiu raised her eyebrows at Park Shengxiu, thinking that she had received a wave of benefits from whoring.

Although the latter spent 150,000 to buy a house, but 150,000 can live in a large house of 35 square meters. This is simply a free gift.

Park Shengxiu hurriedly lowered his head and secretly decided that he would stay up all night tomorrow, too!

Jin Minxiu dialed the customer service number of the crowdfunding website and started another day of wrangling.

Compared with the high efficiency when applying for the project, when the project was canceled, Tumblbug seemed to be a bit unreasonable.

At the beginning, they were still saying that this project would definitely get 30 million yuan in sponsorship, and I suggested that Han Zidong wait patiently.

When they learned that Han Zidong was resolute and refused to accept their suggestions, Tumblbug began to delay the process for a whole day on the grounds that they needed to report to their superiors.

You must know that Tumblbug is a startup company that has only been established for more than a year, with only 20 or 30 employees. How can there be so many levels among such a small number of people, and how can there be so many trivial processes to go through.

If there really were so many processes to go through, his project would not have passed the review on the first day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday.

At that time, Tumblbug's employees were so dedicated that they still worked during holidays.

Right now, Tumblbug's service is so bad. He has never heard of any place that gives a green light when asking for money and a red light when refunding money.

Han Zidong felt that if Tumblbug hadn't played an insignificant role in his staying on the peninsula and developing, he would have changed platforms long ago. After all, Tumblbug is not the only art resource crowdfunding platform on the peninsula.

Just when Han Zidong was thinking, Jin Minxiu's words brought him back to reality.

"Boss, the person in charge of Tumblbug would like to invite you to their company for an interview." Jin Minxiu covered the microphone and said.

Han Zidong waved his hand: "I won't go."

Jin Minxiu faithfully conveyed Han Zidong's words, even imitating the tone exactly the same.

"Boss, Tumblbug said that our project plan is really of high quality. They are very optimistic about the prospects of our project and hope to have a good talk with you."

I don’t know if it was because she was afraid of missing a sound, but Kim Min-soo rarely used honorifics.

"Then let's set the meeting place in Yusu Cave, so that they can visit our studio and do some preliminary research for our next project."

Jin Minxiu got a positive reply, hung up the phone, and curiously asked Han Zidong: "Boss, there are many projects on Tumblbug with more than 30 million, why are they so interested in your project?"

Han Zidong stopped writing and thought for a while: "Maybe they are more discerning."

Jin Minxiu laughed dryly: "Really? They are discerning and have made an appointment with you on Wednesday morning at the Idia Cafe in Oksu-dong."

"Itia's coffee is pretty good," Han Zidong lowered his head. As the workflow entered the dialogue bubbles, the first chapter of "My Love from the Star" entered the countdown to completion: "Remember to remind me to finish the first chapter of the comic when the time comes.

Print it out."

"Okay, boss."

"I also need to scan and back up the eight character sketches before, and then mail the originals to suli."

"Oh, our boss has a conscience. Suli will definitely be very happy to receive the drawings."
