My game, you have no right to award

Chapter 6 Another World (Please Read)
Zhou Kuang knew that the other party had misunderstood his meaning. "Yang Ji just came to the company and doesn't know much about the art team. I hope you can help him get into work mode as soon as possible."

"You must also cooperate with him in the future."

"Okay, Brother Kuang!" Zhang Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Zhou Kuang was here for this matter and not planning to fire him. "I will actively cooperate with him."

"Well, come on, go ahead." Zhou Kuang patted him on the back.

……

……

……

Zhang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the door of the conference room, and prepared to return to his seat in the art group.

Along the way, he felt a little sour. Even if Yang Ji had previously been the lead artist for Antarctic Interactive Entertainment, he wouldn't have been treated so favorably by his boss, right? He directly gave him such great authority as the art director, and repeatedly urged him, a senior concept artist, to cooperate with him. It was simply... it was like Zhou Kuang treated him like a treasure.

After all, he has a temper!
Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and looked up to find that he had returned to the art group. The other group members were curiously looking at Yang Ji who was cleaning the desk of the former group leader.

Looking at Yang Ji's figure, he suddenly became deflated again.

Forget it, the arm can’t twist the thigh, after all, you still have to eat!
If Yang Ji is incompetent, I will find a way to report him.

"Hey, everyone, pay attention!" Zhang Yi clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention. Yang Ji also looked up at him, "This is the new employee, Yang Ji, and also our new art director and team leader. Welcome everyone!"

Immediately, Zhang Yi, with a warm smile on his face, was the first to applaud.

"Clap clap clap!"

Although everyone was unclear about the situation, they all started to applaud.

"thanks, thanks."

Yang Ji bowed slightly to everyone, then continued to clear the table.

Zhang Yi also took the opportunity to announce to the team members that the company was planning to transform into producing 3A stand-alone games. Everyone was surprised but nothing happened. After all, as long as the company could pay their wages, they would not object to anything.

After he finished arranging everyone's finishing work, he prepared to go back and give a brief report to Yang Ji. After all, he would no longer be the head of the art team. The head would be the other party. He arranged the work at this time simply to complete Zhou Kuang's instructions.

But when he turned around and looked at Yang Ji's position, he found that the other party had already set up the digital tablet and was sitting there drawing.

This is a good opportunity! Zhang Yi's eyes lit up.

Although the artistic level of Journey to the West in Troubled Times is indeed very high, his own strength is another matter.

Let me see how good he is and whether he is just worthy of his reputation!

Thinking so, Zhang Yi walked slowly and carefully behind the other person, but was shocked at the first sight.

I saw Yang Ji holding a pressure-sensitive pen, as if he was sketching a character, but what was different was that he was using a single layer and was sketching without any auxiliary tools!

As we all know, in painting software, users can create multiple layers, each layer is independent of each other, and finally stack them one by one according to priority or transparency to form the final product.

The advantage of this is that the artist can complete the characters on one layer, the background on another layer, or both the characters and the background on multiple layers.

It is always easier to constantly modify and adjust each layer than to adjust and modify a single layer.

At this time, Yang Ji was using a single layer to draft, drawing the background and characters in the same layer, which would make it more difficult to modify.

Moreover, he did not use any auxiliary tools to paint, which made it even more difficult.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi snorted inwardly with disdain. Even a senior concept artist like him who had been working for almost ten years still used multiple layers and 3D software like Blender for assistance.

Those who used a single layer either overestimated themselves or possessed a very solid foundation in painting, perhaps even a naive background in traditional paper painting. He assumed Yang Ji was just casually painting, so he didn't pay much attention to using multiple layers, as he sometimes did when painting casually.

However, as the other party continued to draw quickly, stroke by stroke, his expression became more serious.

The first thing he realized was that Yang Ji's writing was extremely accurate, with each stroke falling exactly where it should be, and there were almost no revisions.

Secondly, he has a deep understanding of the human body structure.

He drew a soldier with a gun, wearing armor and standing still with the gun pointed to the side.

The lines of the arm and leg muscles are very obvious, and every part of the human body is accurate and proportional.

Yang Ji was able to establish the character just by sketching. The outline and curve of the legs even showed him the weight of the armor and spear. The sketching, which was a headache for him, was completed by Yang Ji in an incredibly smooth manner in one go!
The other party seemed to have everything planned out with ease, determining the layout of the composition, completing the basic outline of the characters, and shaping the background.

However, before he could think it through, the other party had already started adding details.

The scales of armor, the folds of clothing, the tip of a weapon.

Every detail seemed to be projected from reality, and for a moment he had the illusion that this was not a painting, but a scroll leading to another world.

Zhang Yi subconsciously took a step back, with sweat slightly on his forehead. However, his artist's instinct made him take another step forward, wanting to continue observing and learning how the other party completed the painting.

Time passed by bit by bit, and Zhang Yi stared at the painting in front of him. He should have been picky, but at this moment he just opened his eyes wide, wanting to absorb everything he could learn.

Finally, as Yang Ji exhaled, he completed this character concept painting, which should be called a practice drawing.

When he turned around, he found that the person he had met at the previous meeting was staring at him blankly.

What's his name?

I think his name is Zhang Yi?

Before he could say anything, Zhang Yi spoke first.

"Hey, team leader..."

"Ah, just call me Yang Ji."

Yang Ji seemed very friendly and stood up to stretch his stiff wrists.

"How old are you this year?"

Zhang Yi asked, looking at Yang Ji's still handsome face.

"27, soon to be 28," he replied with a smile.

27...

27...27!

Zhang Yi didn't expect that he would be pinned to the ground by the brute force of a 27-year-old main artist.

The gap between the two might be the difference in talent. He sighed secretly in his heart and lost the desire to provoke the other party.

Since the other party is so powerful, why not learn from him? Maybe you can make a breakthrough later?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Team Leader Yang, no! Brother Ji, let me report to you about our team's work over the past period of time."

"This, this is not good."

Yang Ji looked at the man in front of him who was older than him, and suddenly called him brother. He suddenly felt a chill and almost got goose bumps.
