Rebirth of the God of Comics

"Wang Tian, ​​what are you doing here?"

Chen Ze followed the voice and saw a man in his fifties walking from the front. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which made him look very elegant.

As soon as Wang Tian saw him, the expression on his face immediately became flattering: "Editor-in-chief, I'm just here to educate some newcomers who have just entered the industry, so that they know what it means to respect seniors."

There is only one person in China who can be called "editor-in-chief" by Wang Tian, ​​and that is Shi Jieren, the current editor-in-chief of Lotte Club.

When the cartoonists around saw Shi Jieren coming, they greeted him cautiously. Although many people here are not painters of the Lotte Club, but with the strength of the Lotte Club, if they offend Shi Jieren, it is very easy to be blocked.

"The ceremony is about to start and you don't go back to your seat, what are you doing here?"

To Chen Ze's surprise, Shi Jieren seemed to be on his side. He frowned and said to Wang Tian. It seems that Shi Jieren has a lot of prestige in the Lotte Club, and Wang Tian nodded repeatedly after hearing his words, and returned to his position without daring to say a word.

"I'm sorry Mr. Chen, it was the people from our magazine who were not polite just now." Shi Jieren smiled and apologized to Chen Ze, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit beside him.

"It's nothing?" Chen Ze shook his head, since he apologized, he naturally wouldn't take it to heart. But looking at Shi Jieren like this, it seems that he still has something to say to himself.

"I have also watched Mr. Chen's masterpiece "Slam Dunk". It is really a rare masterpiece in these years. Nominated by the organizing committee this time, I think the best newcomer must be in Mr. Chen's pocket."

"Editor Shi was joking. It's not up to me to decide who gets the best newcomer. I can't guarantee the result." Chen Ze said.

"Actually, Mr. Chen has always been in charge of the decision, but it depends on how Mr. Chen chooses." Shi Jieren whispered.

"What do you mean?" Chen Ze asked after hearing what Shi Jie said.

"I don't know what Mr. Chen thinks of the new animation magazine you are working for now?" Shi Jieren suddenly changed the subject again, and shifted the topic to the magazine.

"New Anime Magazine, a new small magazine, is in danger of going bankrupt at any time. As far as I know, if you didn't come up with the online serialization this time, then this magazine might have gone bankrupt." He also added Before Chen Ze could answer, he took the initiative to answer.

Shi Jieren spoke bluntly in front of Lin Lan. Although the words were not pleasant, they were just the truth. Lin Lan's expression turned ugly when she heard this, but she could only let out a "Humph!".

"In my 30-odd years as an editor of this kind of magazine, I don't know how many times I have seen. Now most of them don't know where to go." Shi Jie said humanely, "On the contrary, our Lotte Club has firmly grasped the hegemony of comics for 20 years. , Talents come out in large numbers in the magazine, and the vitality is great, this kind of magazine is Mr. Chen, a genius like you should join."

For the sake of what Shi Jieren said, Chen Ze, even a fool, should understand what he meant. He wanted to recruit himself into the Lotte Club!

Thinking of what Li Mingyang said yesterday in the Imperial Palace, I should also vaguely remind myself to follow the current strongest trend of the Lotte Society.

Lin Lan also became nervous when she heard this. She already guessed yesterday that Li Mingyang meant to recruit Chen Ze, but now that she heard it herself, she still became nervous.

The bet between her and her father, her own dream, all of these can only be hoped to be fulfilled by Chen Ze.

However, facing the competition from Lotte Club, Lin Lan asked herself that there was nothing comparable.

Lotte Club is the largest club in China, and there are many talents in the club. There is a proverb that there are ten talents in painting in the world, and Lotte has eight of them. Benefits and fame are not comparable to her new animation magazine. Faced with this temptation, it is hard to imagine anyone refusing.

"As long as Mr. Chen is willing to join our Lotte Club, then your salary at the New Animation Magazine will be doubled, and the liquidated damages will be settled by us. Studios, personal art exhibitions, you can have whatever you want." Shi Jieren said early He threw out the conditions he had prepared, and with the conditions he offered now, he felt that even a fool would know how to make a choice, so he looked at Chen Ze confidently.

After listening to Shi Jieren's words, Chen Ze looked at Lin Lan beside him. She looked at herself nervously, and there was even a bit of begging in her eyes, and she held back what she wanted to say. He just looked straight at Chen Ze, waiting for his final decision, with an expression of resignation.

"Editor Shi, your offer is so generous that I can't refuse it." Chen Ze's words made Shi Jieren smile confidently, but Lin Lan's face turned pale immediately beside him.

"But I still want to reject you. I'm a person who likes to go with the flow. I'm used to being in the new animation magazine, and I don't want to move." Chen Ze shook his head, but his words turned the whole situation upside down.

Of course, the reason why Chen Ze didn't want to go to the Lotte Club was far more than because he didn't want to move. The hierarchical structure of the Lotte Club had blocked him before, all of which made him not want to go there.

More importantly, Lin Lan treated him very well. When he was still a novice in the comic circle of this world, she was the one who discovered him and gave him a chance. Otherwise, he might have given up comics long ago. Even if it's because of Lin Lan, he can't change jobs.

Another point is that he also submitted an article to Lotte Club at the beginning, but the other party did not accept it. Of course, Chen Ze didn't intend to eat such reverted grass.

Shi Jieren didn't expect Chen Ze to answer in this way: "Mr. Chen, have you thought about it? The salary of joining our Lotte Club is twice as much as you are now. I think you have experienced the fate of going against our Lotte Club some time ago." of."

"Editor Shi, are you threatening me? I'm sorry, the last thing I like is threats. And do you know who I hate the most in Chinese history, Lu Bu!" Chen Ze said lightly.

"Okay, okay!" Shi Jieren laughed angrily when he heard Chen Ze's words, "Young people have backbone, but unfortunately they are a little bit thicker. I don't know how many geniuses in the history of Chinese comics who became famous at one time, but fell in the end. They are all like you, Mr. Chen, thinking that they can run wild with a little talent. As a result, they don’t know where they are now.”

"Thank you, Editor-in-Chief Shi, for reminding me. I will pay attention or I will become like them." Chen Ze smiled.

"That's good. Since you refuse to accept my invitation, Mr. Chen, I hope to see you here again at this time next year!"

The conversation between Shi Jieren and Chen Ze was in the hall, and they did not avoid the crowd, so the news that Chen Ze rejected Shi Jieren's invitation quickly spread throughout the hall.

The cartoonists in the hall were full of admiration for Chen Ze's choice, but they didn't understand it, and they felt sorry for it.

What I admire is that Chen Ze dared to reject Shi Jieren head-on. You must know that behind him is Lotte Club, the overlord of the comic circle. It is brave enough for a cartoonist to refuse them.

What I don't understand is that Chen Ze gave up twice the salary and didn't join the Lotte Club. You must know that the Lotte Club is the highest place in the hearts of all cartoonists in China. Many cartoonists hope to join the Lotte Club even if their salaries are cut. It is really incomprehensible for them to refuse such a condition.

But when they saw such a beautiful woman as Chen Ze's boss, Lin Lan, they immediately understood. It turns out that the kid loves beauties but not country.

In this way, the scandal between him and Lin Lan spread throughout the comic circle at a geometric speed. Everyone gave a thumbs up and said that there was a young manga artist who refused to join the Lotte Club because of his beautiful boss.

It's a pity that Chen Ze and Lotte Club had conflicts at first, but after this battle, the conflicts between the two sides became more intensified. The Lotte Society will definitely deal with Chen Ze with all its strength. He is such a genius, and I am afraid that he will perish.

Thinking of this, they looked at Chen Ze with regret.
