Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?.

Chapter 308 Oda, your platelet style is wrong
"The Cultural Affairs Agency leaked the information." Oda Shingo could only smile bitterly when he knew that the news that he would win the award was revealed in advance.

This kind of thing has also happened on Earth.

The Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs is a hotbed of jokes. Of course, this is also due to the scope of its jurisdiction and the style of Japanese officials.

In Japanese offices, confidentiality is bullshit.

A cleaner saw the relocation and renovation plan of Tokyo Bay in the trash can and then leaked the information to investment institutions. As a result, the consortium that won the renovation business paid tens of billions of yen more for the acquisition.

So Shingo Oda was not surprised at all about the award leak.

"With this going on, will the Ministry of Culture not dare to give you the award?" worried Namikaze Youhe.

Oda Shingo shook his head confidently: "No, they chose me on the one hand to fight against the Manga Association, and on the other hand they also hope to win me over. Don't they want to change the current situation where all the excellent manga are animal manga?"

At the same time, he thought to himself: This involves a question of authority. The Director of the Department of Culture will never change the plan because of an advance leak. Otherwise, how can the work be carried out?
"By the way, the Cultural Affairs Bureau's awards are very much aimed at the Manga Association." Fujido Kaoru asked curiously, "Isn't the Manga Association under the jurisdiction of the Cultural Affairs Bureau?"

"It's not that simple. The Manga Association is a public welfare corporation, operated by 64 manga clubs with a membership fee model. Of course, advertising is also a form of income, but the profits can only be used for its own operations, so it has relative independence." Oda Shingo explained very accurately, "The Manga Association was originally an organization established by manga capital to fight against public power, and it is also a way to keep warm together, so the two sides are not harmonious."

Qunyingshe is the biggest sponsor of the Cartoonists Association, and they are the ones who pay the most dues, most frequently, and most punctually every year. So the Cartoonists Association was able to be influenced by Qunyingshe in the last annual newcomer award ceremony.

At that time, Oda Shingo was a pure newcomer, a completely insignificant figure. The Manga Association did not expect that not giving out the award would backfire so badly.

"Teacher Oda, how do you know so much?" Yuko Mikami was surprised.

Mrs. Yukino laughed out loud: "Someone is narrow-minded. After being cheated, he must have gone through the enemy's assets in detail and planned how to retaliate."

"Hahaha." Oda Shingo laughed.

Yuko Mikami suddenly understood. At the last awards ceremony, Shingo Oda and the other two slurped their milk tea in public to mock them.

Ah, what a pity I didn’t join at that time. I also wanted to fight the villains with Mr. Oda!

Yuko Mikami has no hesitation in defining the Cartoonists Association as villains.

Mrs. Yukino made a suggestion: "The Cultural Affairs Agency Manga Awards Ceremony is approaching. Oda-kun, shall I arrange for a personal assistant to help you design your personal look?"

"Ah? No need?" Oda Nobuo was stunned.

I am not an idol who relies on my looks to make a living, nor am I a big shot, and I didn’t arrange any image design in my previous life.

Mrs. Yukino shook her finger and said, "Give it a try. It's free. Besides, they always arrange kimonos for me. I've been clamoring to change to something new."

Soon, two image designers arrived at Oda Shingo's studio. Although they were both women, their outfits were quite in line with the current trend of aesthetics.

It took a full three hours, and Oda Shingo was quite resentful. He felt that with such a long time, perhaps he could have drawn a storyboard for one episode.

"Hold on, it seems to be really effective! Makeup design really works!" Fujido Kaoru kept encouraging Oda Shingo to hold on.

Namikaze Youhe was also nodding vigorously at the side.

Finally it was okay. When Oda Shingo stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself, he was shocked.

A horse relies on the saddle and a person relies on makeup. After all this, the whole person not only looks energetic, but also has a feeling of a pretty boy.

No, it should be said that she is beautiful to the point of being devilish.

But this happens to be the most mainstream aesthetic for men in Japan.

A man with a pointed chin, fox eyes, a refined lifestyle and gentle manners is the definition of a beautiful man in current Japanese women's magazines.

Since the second idol boom and the era of Meteor Garden, flower boys have dominated Japan for thirty years. The masculinity of the Showa era has long been replaced by the feminine style, and muscular men and beard men have been considered outdated.

"I didn't expect Shingo to be so handsome?!" Fujido Kaoru and Mikami Yuko said in unison, their eyes sparkling with stars.

“……” Namikaze Youhe just thought it looked good, but frowned.

If Shingo goes to Otoko-sang to meet Odo-san and Ka-san like this, he will probably be forced to commit seppuku...

Mrs. Yukino actually had a similar opinion to Namikaze Yuzuru. She looked at Oda Shingo and shook her head: "It reminds me of the silver fox in Hokkaido, and that one was a female..."

"Mrs. Yukino is right. This kind of dress doesn't suit me." Oda Shingo apologized, "Thank you, Mrs. Yukino and the two teachers. I'm attending a ceremony at the Ministry of Culture. I can't dress like this. Besides, I'm planning to take advantage of the reputation of the so-called Showa style."

He gave up this look and changed to a more Showa-style image of a sunny boy, not a young working man.

Relatively speaking, it doesn’t quite match the latest flower boy aesthetic, but the professionally designed image is still good.

After the two Tony female teachers left regretfully, Oda Shingo threw himself onto the work table again.

We must make up for the three hours of delay!
What is more important is whether the Ministry of Culture can hold on firmly to its support and whether the company has any good works of its own.

In particular, "Cells at Work!" is an educational gift to the Agency for Cultural Affairs, so it must be of high quality.

"Cells at Work!", originally a manga, has skyrocketed in popularity after being adapted into an animation. It's such a good animation that even the six princesses of CCTV have to give it Chinese dubbing treatment.

However, many parts involving red liquid were filtered in black and white, which was surprising.

But it must be said that the Chinese dubbing is really like a gathering of heroes. Many big characters performed steadily and brilliantly. It is a milestone work worthy of praise in the Chinese dubbing in recent years.

In particular, dubbing with Northeastern accent into Kansai accent set an exploratory record for CCTV dubbing.

Although there are both praises and criticisms, the positive reviews are obviously in the majority, and it is still worth remembering overall.

Many children in China watched this animation on CCTV and then went to Bilibili to look for the series to be broadcasted.

The impetuous and reckless red blood cells with poor sense of direction, the rigorous and somewhat morbid white blood cells, the cute platelets, and so on...

However, after the main editor completed the fusion of the painting styles, he still found some minor problems when he started drafting.

Yuko Mikami hesitated: "Teacher Oda, there is always a little incompatibility between what you and I draw. The platelets you draw..."

Speaking of platelets, Yuko Mikami was worried about the design of Oda Shingo. Platelets always seemed like a bit of an added ingredient.

"Well..." Oda Shingo couldn't explain it.

It was all caused by the system's job switching. He switched to the book artist job, which greatly improved his drawing skills and allowed him to draw the work's setting draft almost perfectly. But at the same time, the problem was that not all characters had charm bonuses.

For example, platelets, under his pen, have a charming feeling.

However, switching to efficiency mode for the cartoonist profession cannot meet the requirements for drawing skills, which is really a dilemma.

Fortunately, Yuko Mikami is not as cruel as him. After her painting style was integrated, the image of platelets was finally back on track.

No need to worry about the three-year sentence...

Chapters 1 and 2 of the manga were finally completed on the day of the Agency for Cultural Affairs Manga Award.

Oda Shingo took the manuscript and his female assistant to the award ceremony.
