Chapter 96: The Three Cat's Eye Sisters

This manga outline is just Chuzuo, but it describes the characteristics and charm contained in this long manga, which coincides with some of the scattered ideas in Hojoji's heart. It is the future Hojoji's famous long manga "The Three Sisters of the Cat Eyes".

After reading this letter, Hojoji fell into deep thought. If you look at the outline, the comics you draw have the potential to sell well. The most important thing is that they have many similarities with some of his ideas, which made Hojoji a little moved. If the World Club was not a comic club that was just founded, Hojoji would really probably join directly with this sincerity and outline.

"Let's just read these comics first before making a decision!"

Helplessly, Hojoji turned his attention to the dozens of comic books and hid them. He did not touch the single version of "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", but took out the first version of "Football Young Player" from it to watch.

After seeing this, Hojoji was immediately trapped in it. He didn't know the passage of time. His hands were turning the pages mechanically, his eyes were staring at the picture, and his mind was attracted by it.

"It's so amazing. I didn't expect Zhao Chen's comics to be so wonderful. This is the best sports comic I've ever seen and will definitely be able to sell well!"

After reading three single-line versions of "Football Young Player", Hojo Ji came back to his senses. "Football Young Player" shocked him a lot, and was also impressed by Zhao Chen's talent.

It is not that "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" is not as good as "Football Young Players", but the two have different knowledge. How could Hojoji, who is an islander, know the history of the Tang Dynasty? It is precisely because of this that Hojoji is so shocked.

After a while, Hojoji calmed down and picked up the more gorgeous "Sailor Moon" on the cover, but he began to think of turning to the world club.

"No, the style is completely different! How is this possible? How is this possible! Is it true that only such a genius can draw a masculine and delicate style of opposing paintings in his teens!"

Hojoji stopped on the first page, staring at the first page with his eyes blankly, and he couldn't believe everything in front of him. If it weren't for the single book containing Zhao Chen's name, he might have thought it was the work of another cartoonist.

Not long after, Hojoji suppressed his inner shock again and began to truly watch "Sailor Moon". Although he didn't read the girl comics very much, he still had the vision as a cartoonist. He could see that this girl comic also had the potential to sell well, which made him laugh and cry.

"God, I am so powerful as a teenager. Will I become a master in a few years? This potential is truly unparalleled, even Osamu Tezuka was afraid that it would not be able to match it back then! Forget it, since that's the case, I'll just bet on you, even if it fails in the end, so what if it fails!"

Hojo Ji was in a state of uproar and could not stop for a long time. In the end, he made up his mind to the sincerity, outline and Zhao Chen's potential. Zhao Chen, who has such great potential, the future achievements of the World Society can be said to be limitless. What reason does he have not to gamble!

Hojoji eventually became a contracted cartoonist for the World Club. Due to Hojoji's future potential and achievements, Zhao Chen gave him quite a low treatment.

Therefore, there were eight cartoonists willing to come to Tianxia Club to serialize. In addition to the serialized works of five ordinary cartoonists, there are also "The Three Sisters of the Cat-Eyed" by Hojoji, "The Wings" by Katsumaka and "Please take care of more, the Pure Love General" by Fukumoto! If Zhao Chen's "Football Young Player" and "The Rebellious Lelouch", there will be ten works that can be serialized, barely reaching the number of works in the weekly magazine.

Unfortunately, Zhao Chengao read three future great cartoonists, whether it was Hojoji who had completed the book, or the current newcomer Fukumoto Shinsuke, Katsumasa, even if he had assistants, his hand speed was undoubtedly slower. He could only complete more than 10 pages in a week, which is undoubtedly more suitable for a half-monthly magazine. But if it was serialized by a week, the number of pages in the weekly magazine will undoubtedly decrease a little.

If the number of pages of comics weekly magazines is reduced, the one who has the most experience is undoubtedly readers who have been reading for a long time. Naturally, they are unwilling to spend the same money to buy weekly magazines with reduced pages.

"Oh no, I finally overestimated them! Even if you add Mamazi's "Chinese Heroes", the number of pages is still a bit short!"

Zhao Chen had a headache when he thought of this. There are still many works that have been submitted these days, but these works are quite rough and cannot meet the serial standards. If one of them is really inserted, it will probably directly lead to a decline in the overall quality of comics weekly, and the readers' reputation will probably drop by a level. At that time, the effect of weekly publication will undoubtedly decrease a lot. The main problem is that Zhao Chen can only borrow the distribution channel of Jiyingshe once.

After taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Chen can only rely on his own company's capabilities to create distribution channels in the future. But if this is the case, if you want to achieve the best results, the quality of the first issue of comic weekly magazine must not be reduced.

Although Xiangjiang’s World Comics Company has won many comic artists, due to the rougher style of Xiangjiang’s comics and huge cultural differences, only Ma Rongcheng’s “Chinese Heroes” can be added!

It’s not that Zhao Chen is unwilling to increase the number of pages in "Chinese Heroes" or "Football Young Players", but Ma Rongcheng’s "Chinese Heroes" will be serialized for eight years according to history; as for "Football Young Players", even if Zhao Chen deleted a part of the plot that dragged the plot, it would undoubtedly take about three years to complete the serialization.

It is precisely because of this that these two long comics cannot increase the number of pages. After all, if the effect is good in the future, reducing the number of pages will undoubtedly make readers feel unhappy!

"It seems that the only way to poach people! Anda Chong? No, this guy is still serializing "Mixue Mixue" and has a good status in the elementary school hall; Toriyama Akira? It is impossible, the serializing "Alarei" cannot be dug him; Aunt Takahashi? Alas, "Fuxing Boy" is popular, and it is impossible to dig... These future masters are either serializing their famous works or have not debuted yet, and they don't even know where they live!"

Under Zhao Chen's veto, the final result was extremely disappointed. He could not have seized food from the mouth of a comic giant such as Shueisha. It was really that the world's society had no foundation, and it was difficult for ordinary cartoonists to find it.

"Is it necessary to hold a newcomer competition? No, don't say that you have no reputation, and there is not so much time to prepare! Can you only choose a rough comic to serialize it?"

Dongdong!

Just as Zhao Chen was in deep thought, the office door was knocked.

Zhao Chen took a deep breath, suppressed his irritability, and his face became calm again, as if there was no worries.

As the backbone of a comic club, Zhao Chen must set an example, otherwise if even Zhao Chen is panicked, what will the employees below think, especially his age is a flaw.

"Please come in!"

The door opened, and a staff member came in and said, "President, Hirohiko Araki, who is third in the Assistant Competition, wants to see you!"

When Zhao Chen heard about Araki Hiroshi, his eyes lit up, but he still remained silent on the surface.

"You did a great job, let him in!"

"yes!"

Hirohiko Araki quickly entered the office and looked at Zhao Chen's president's office.

"Mr. Araki, please sit down!"

Araki Hirohiko still had a kind smile on his face, sitting opposite Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen took the initiative to get up and pour a cup of tea for Araki Hirohiro and said, "Mr. Araki must have something important to come this time!"

"Thank you!" Araki Hirohiko felt flattered and hurriedly reached out to take the water cup.

"I mainly came to your club to contribute this time!"

Hirohiko Araki placed the briefcase he was holding in front of Zhao Chen, his eyes a little nervous.

"Then I have to take a closer look!"

Zhao Chen said this, and directly pulled out the drawings inside and started reading.

The drawings depict the manuscript of Hirohiko Araki's debut work "Armed Poker". Zhao Chen has never read this manga due to its fame and age, so he can read it carefully.

When Zhao Chen was watching, Araki Hirohiko's heart suddenly rose. After all, this was his first submission, and the person who reviewed the manuscript was the real cartoonist and president of the comic club. At this moment, Araki Hirohiko forgot about Zhao Chen's age and regarded Zhao Chen as a senior.

"Armed Poker" is a comic set against a small town in the west. From Zhao Chen's perspective, it is very average, but it can also be seen from it that Hirohiko Araki has already added fashion design to the comic. Overall, this comic has initially met the requirements of serialization, and this is exactly what Zhao Chen needs.

"The creativity is relatively old-fashioned, the overall style is relatively ordinary, and the style needs to be further enhanced, but it also meets the requirements of serialization!"

This is Zhao Chen's evaluation, but for Hirohiko Araki, it is both surprise and disappointment. The joy is undoubtedly a serialization, and the sad thing is that Zhao Chen's evaluation is lower than he imagined.
