People who read comics naturally don’t know the hard work of comics, just like if you only sleep for four hours a day and basically work the rest of the time, it will be fine after one or two days. Once the time is long, you can understand what it means to live like a year. Therefore, only those who are determined and persevering can go further in this industry.

Although they all felt that Zhao Chen was too young, they had no objection, because Ma Rongcheng among them started to draw some tricks at the age of 15, and their master Shangguan Xiaobao even entered the industry at the age of 11. Therefore, they not only had no objection, but also did not even surprise.

However, when Niu Lao Du, who looked quite strong, saw that Shangguan Xiaobao had no time to pack up the contract, he immediately widened his big eyes like a copper bell and shouted with an incredible expression: "Are you wrong? 100 yuan per page, 10% of the single-line payment! This is almost at the contract of a well-known cartoonist."

Niu Grandma's original name is Wen Qiming. Because his voice is dull as a cow, he received the title of "Niu Grandma". It is precisely because of his voice that everyone can hear it clearly.

This time, the hornet's nest was stabbed. The originally harmonious scene collapsed instantly. Both the cartoonists and the assistants present looked at Zhao Chen a little dissatisfied. Why could he, a young man with a hair, get such a high contract? It was because of Niu Ma's words that their impression of Zhao Chen was greatly reduced, and they felt even more jealous.

"Oh, you can take it and take a look at it yourself! It is indeed worth this contract! If anyone among you thinks he can draw a comic of this quality, I will make the decision to draw such a contract for you!"

Seeing the changes in the scene, Shangguan Xiaobao couldn't help but sigh, and then handed the copy of Zhao Chen handed him to Niu Grandma next to him.

Niu Madam had suspicion on her face. As Shangguan Xiaobao's disciple, he naturally would not doubt his master's words, but he naturally had arrogance in his heart. Why could Zhao Chen get such a contract at such a young age, and he was also a cartoonist assistant!

When he took out the comic "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", the rest of the people who were also dissatisfied also surrounded him and watched it with Niu Lao.

Just after the first look, the dissatisfaction in my heart disappeared a lot. After all, they are all experts, so naturally they can see that Zhao Chen's painting skills are no worse than them, and even more than them. Of course, even if they recognize Zhao Chen's painting skills, they will not think that Zhao Chen really surpasses them. This is the conceit of cartoonists unless you achieve very amazing results.

As the pages of drawings were opened, the expressions on their faces gradually became solemn, and the dissatisfaction in their hearts gradually disappeared in the movement of drawings. After they finished reading, most of them no longer had the previous dissatisfaction, and replaced it with a shocking expression.

The only people present were Ma Rongcheng and Niu Lao, who were a little dissatisfied. Ma Rongcheng thought that his painting skills were no worse than Zhao Chen, while Niu Lao was jealous because he was older than Zhao Chen and was still an assistant. But no matter how unwilling the two of them, they recognized the contract and also recognized Zhao Chen's strength.

"What do you think? If you don't accept it, you will plagiarize your works!" Zhao Chen could naturally see the meaning of Ma Rongcheng and Niu Lao's eyes, and a sentence subconsciously emerged in his heart. Perhaps because of time, Zhao Chen was not good at plagiarizing Ma Rongcheng's famous work "The Hero of China", but he could plagiarize "Storm and Cloud". The famous work "Young and Dangerous" of Niu Lao more than ten years later may be less famous than "Storm and Cloud", but that is only relatively worth it.

Zhao Chen and Ma Rongcheng and others said a few words one after another, but they were just nonsense like long-term reverence. Anyway, they were just saying all good things, just to leave a good impression on them. After all, working in the comics industry is very important and having a good reputation in the industry, and maybe they will be asked to be when they are asked.

After they dispersed and continued to work, Zhao Chen stood in front of Shangguan Xiaobao and said, "Uncle Shangguan, Zhao Chen has a ruthless request. I wonder if he can overdraw his royalties? I don't need too much, just 500 Hong Kong dollars."

Shangguan Xiaobao just glanced at Zhao Chen's clothes, a smile appeared on his face, reached out and took out his wallet from his pocket, counted it for a while, and placed them in front of Zhao Chen.

"Uncle Shangguan, there's more." Zhao Chen just glanced at it, and naturally he could see that the Hong Kong dollars in his hand were obviously more than 500, and the thickness was probably as high as 1,000.

"Take it, just treat it as I lent it to you. It's not too late to pay it back when you have money one day."

Shangguan Xiaobao stuffed the money directly into Zhao Chen's hand, with a very normal tone.

Looking at the banknotes in his hand, Zhao Chen was still a little moved. What a great person! But he would not pretend to be distorted, but instead put his feelings in place. Anyway, it would not be too late to wait until he has money, as Shangguan Xiaobao said.

In the busy Ma Rongcheng and others, they naturally saw the scene here, but they all looked like they were not surprised. Obviously, Shangguan Xiaobao has always been like this and is very generous to his people.

Of course, Shangguan Xiaobao is so generous because of his wealth. Just a book called "Bruce Lee" made him make a fortune. However, not rich people are so generous. On the contrary, they are often very stingy. Shangguan Xiaobao is a rich man, but he still works hard for ten years, looks very simple in his clothes, treats people calmly and sincerely, and is kind and generous. It is really impossible to tell that he is a rich man. On the contrary, according to the standards of later generations, this is simply the type that every mother-in-law likes, but unfortunately he has already started a family.

"Uncle Shangguan, I won't disturb you from continuing to work anymore, I'll go back first!" Zhao Chen and Shangguan Xiaobao carefully agreed on the publication time of the comic magazine, and then said to Shangguan Xiaobao.

"If there are any difficulties, remember to tell me, maybe I can help you. Remember to work hard. The most important thing for a cartoonist is to persevere. As long as you continue to work hard, your future achievements will be limitless!"

Zhao Chen naturally nodded when he asked Shangguan Xiaobao's advice, even though he had heard it many times.

As soon as Zhao Chen left the Holy Fire Publishing House, he walked around the streets of Chaiwan, bought a set of street stall goods, replaced all his clothes and shoes, and then changed his bird guns and cannons. At least Zhao Chen felt much better, and the "beggar suit" successfully upgraded street stall goods, which shows that he has been on the right path and has taken a solid step. In the long run, famous brands are just around the corner.

Of course, the consequence is that although Zhao Chen's charm has risen sharply, the rate of return has dropped a lot and become dispensable. Not only that, the people he met along the way no longer look at him with the eyes of looking at rare animals, which made him a little uncomfortable for a while.

"It seems that my skin has thickened a little because of the 'beggar' costume'!" Zhao Chen thought teasingly in his heart. His skin is indeed much thicker than his previous life, but this is the inevitable result of the subtle influence of the environment. Everything is just to make his life better, and there is nothing wrong with it.

After changing the cannon with a bird gun, Zhao Chen naturally would not favor one or the other. He bought a women's suit according to his feelings. This is what he planned to give to his mother. He may not be considered a good person, but he also hopes that his family can live a better life.

After doing this, Zhao Chen took the bus to Mong Kok. He still remembered the three ordering painting tools, so how could he easily lose trust?

In a large stationery store, when Zhao Chen entered it and found the salesperson last time, the salesperson could not recognize him for a while. It’s true that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. This is indeed not wrong. At least Zhao Chen has felt much better now, and with his beautiful faces, he can feel the charm of his charm, although it is only street stalls that are attached to him!

"Ah, it turns out that you are the one who came last time. I'm so embarrassed. I didn't recognize you for a while!" The salesperson opened his mouth a little surprised at first, and then his good professional qualities made her apologize.
