I read (no pop-up full text)

  What a bad start! What's this? Many cartoonists have been assistants to other cartoonists before they became famous, it's not something to be ashamed of.

  Takeuchi Naoko, the author of Sailor Moon, used to be an assistant for Toei Animation; Eiichiro Oda, the author of One Piece, was also an assistant for Shinobu Kaitani, and Shinobu Kaitani was an assistant for Tsutomu Takahashi, who in turn was an assistant for Hirohiko Araki... There are countless examples like this. What's wrong with being an assistant before becoming famous? You can learn from the experiences of established manga artists. Of course, So Lihua is also a newcomer to the manga world, but Flying Fish's attitude is just too outrageous!

  "One must accurately position oneself, otherwise it's hard to achieve success." Was Wang Ni trying to comfort him with these words?

  It should be said that Wang Ni's words just now meant that the author Fei Yu had a problem with his own positioning, and such people are not worth getting angry about.

  "Alright, no big deal, I still have two more chances anyway." Wang Ni drove to the homes of the remaining two authors. Since Ya Xiang Society wasn't well-known outside of Yang City, it was likely that the addresses of the three authors Su Shi Chen had chosen were all within Yang City.

  Su Rei was still busy looking for a manga assistant when another commotion broke out outside, the cause of which was that a domestic cartoonist Zhang Ze was provoked by a sentence in the promotion of "Peak Magazine", which was "The best inspirational hot-blooded cartoon in China 'Slam Dunk'".

  Zhang Ze is a big shot in the domestic comic circle, his status is equivalent to Su Rui Chen's current status in the circle, and even higher. His comics mainly have two types: one is Shonen Hot Blood, and the other is Shonen Competition.

  He burst out with these words during an interview with a media outlet:

  "Are they kidding us, the Chinese manga community has no one? Although our Chinese manga community can't compare to Japan or the US, we still have a wealth of talent. A newcomer who has only taken less than ten professional courses dares to say that their manga is the best inspirational and hot-blooded manga in China? Moreover, they're pouring salt on the wounds of basketball fans. For someone who does this just for money without any purpose, I don't have anything to say. Additionally, to comfort the hurt hearts of basketball fans, I am already planning a hot-blooded manga about football, to shift the attention of basketball fans from basketball to football. This is what a manga artist with a conscience should do."

  The war between the football comic and the basketball comic has begun! As expected, the media will take this opportunity to go wild again. However, Su Rei Chen still doesn't know about these things, he has already arrived at another author's home on the 7th floor without an elevator, which is quite a feat climbing the stairs.

  Knock on the door!

  "Who are you looking for?" The person who opened the door this time was more refined, a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, with a scholarly air about him, and from his demeanor, he seemed somewhat like a teacher.

  "Excuse me, are you Yue Xia Gu Cheng, the author of 'Qing Yu'?"

  "Yes, I am indeed Moonlit Ancient City. Please, both of you, come in and take a seat." The scholar's demeanor was still very polite.

  Invited Wang Ni and him to his home, and even served tea.

  "Are you two from Qiman She? My work has only been submitted to Qiman She, so does that mean my manuscript passed the review?"

  "I'm afraid I didn't bring you good news." Su Xichen handed the manuscript back to Yuexia Gucheng.

  "It's been rejected, no big deal, I'm very clear about my own work, and being rejected is something to be expected." Yue Xia Gu Cheng didn't show any anger at all, and even apologized to Su Shi Chen and Wang Ni for returning his manuscript, compared to Fei Yu, Yue Xia Gu Cheng can be considered a saint.

  "Actually, I came this time to ask if you have any plans to become a manga assistant?"

  "Comic assistant!" The old castle under the moon shook his head "My main job is a university teacher teaching painting, and drawing comics is just a hobby in my spare time. I've also learned about the comic assistant industry, it's quite busy, I don't have time, sorry."

  "It's okay, sorry to bother you." No wonder the painting skills are so good, it turns out that he is a university painting teacher. If the painting skills were not good, there would be a ghost.

  Bid farewell to the ancient city under the moonlight, standing in front of the building and let out a deep sigh, is this considered an unlucky year?

  The first cartoonist was too proud to be Su Rui Chen's assistant, while the second cartoonist had a good self-positioning but had no time to be an assistant due to work reasons. There is only one person left among the three.

  Xin Xin is also one of Su Rui Xiang's most hopeful people, because of the similar writing style, he rushed to the last author's residence, which is in a civilian district?

  It's quite dirty and messy, the real name of Chen Xin is Zhang Chen. This kind of low-rise building is densely packed together, with narrow alleys everywhere, cars can't get in, only pedestrians can enter, and these houses don't even have a clear door number plate. After asking around several times, I finally found Zhang Chen's residence.

  The door was open, but he didn't dare to walk in directly. He knocked on the door with a "pom-pom" sound and shouted loudly, "Is anyone home?"

  A male voice came from inside the room, "What's up, just come in and say it directly."

  Wang Ni stood at the door and shook her head, indicating that she wouldn't go in. Su Xichen walked into this very messy house alone. A young man with extremely long hair covering his eyes was drawing a draft. Actually, Su Xichen wanted to ask if he could still see with such long hair?

  Looking at him skillfully using all kinds of tools, this person should be Zhang Chen.

  "Who are you? Did I get another one of my comics rejected?" Zhang Chen's gaze stayed on the manuscript in Su Xichen's hand.

  Why does this sentence sound so awkward again?

  "According to you, are you saying that you simultaneously submitted many works?"

  "That's natural," Zhang Chen said proudly. "At my speed, three weekly publications a week is also a very simple matter, of course this is not the highest speed, the highest speed can guarantee four works at the same time Weekly serialization."

  Listening to Zhang Chen say this, Su Xianchen immediately thought of two great gods in his mind. One is Araki Hirohiko, known as the super-speed god who can publish one book a week, and the other is Tezuka Osamu, the god of comics, a strong man who can produce 50 pages a day.

  Su's interest was immediately piqued "Then how many comics have you published."

  The question immediately left the proud Zhang Chen speechless, and he let out a sigh. "The people from the publishing house all say that my comic has problems with its plot setting. I think they completely don't understand my great ambitions. I just wanted to set up a grand background for my comic. I've drawn the beginnings of dozens of comics, but they've all failed. Looks like I'll have to start again." Zhang Chen hung his head, looking dispirited.

  Zhang Chen's behavior reminded Su Yuechen of his past life, where he had also written one or two books. Once the 30,000-word limit couldn't be signed off on, he would cut it off and start a new book.

  "I'm going to draw a comic book recently, but I don't have enough time by myself. How about you come over and be my assistant?" As soon as Su Rui Chen finished speaking, she stared tightly at Zhang Chen, not wanting to be rejected again, having already failed twice before, this was her last chance.

  However, Zhang Chen did not immediately agree or refuse, but instead asked "How much salary can you pay me for being your assistant for a month?"

  "Can you do coloring, background and outlining?"

  "Of course I can, I used to handle all my comic drawing by myself."

  "First apply for a month, during the trial period I gave 3,500 yuan per month, and after one month of formal conversion, I will give you 6,100 yuan per month."

  Hearing that he could earn 6,000 soft sister coins in a month, Zhang Chen's eyes immediately lit up, but then he looked suspicious "Can you really take out 6,000 yuan in a month?"

  "If you knew who I was, you wouldn't doubt that I can take out 6,000 yuan every month."

  "Who are you? Aren't you just a student?" Zhang Chen looked up and down at Su Xichen with a suspicious expression.

  "I'm an author, I've written several books with sales of over a million copies each. The best-selling one, "Huang Huang", has already broken 30 million copies. Can you say that I can't afford to spend 6,000 yuan per month?"

  Zhang Chen's eyes widened as soon as he heard the name "Hong Huang", looking like he had seen a ghost, "You're not that legendary genius youth Su Shicun, are you?!"

  Su Zhe rubbed his nose, when did he become a legend! Only death is legendary, now he hasn't lived enough and doesn't want to die yet.

  "Alright, I'll do it." Thus, Zhang Chen, later known as the most prolific cartoonist, became Su Renshan's assistant.

  "Su Da Shi, you were writing so well, why did you suddenly want to draw comics?"

  "Su Da Shi, why did you choose basketball? Don't you know that basketball is a taboo subject now?"

  ……

  Zhang Chen's questions came one after another, as if there were a million whys.

  Su Zhe's new house has three bedrooms and one living room. His dad uses one room, he uses one room, and the remaining room is left for Zhang Chen to use, with food and accommodation included. The first month's rent is 3,500 yuan, which already makes Zhang Chen extremely happy.

  Zhang Chen also gave Su Xianchen a surprise. Apart from Zhang Chen's poor storytelling ability, everything else was perfect.

  "Why does Su Daoshi make the main character look like a clown, can't he be more serious? Won't this make readers not want to continue reading?" Zhang Chen was referring to the main character Huadao in the comic.

  "This world has no perfect people, and to make the cartoon more realistic, the main character must have flaws. Of course, we need to grasp these flaws, and the flaws cannot outweigh the advantages."

  Indeed, taking island country comics as an example, the main characters are mostly silly and stupid, but they are very persistent about one thing, simply put, it's just youthful passion.

  Naruto in Naruto is like this, Ichigo in Bleach is like this, and the Hanamichi Sakuragi he draws now in Slam Dunk is even more so.

  "Why does the first stop start with failure? Won't readers feel very disappointed if it fails from the beginning?"

  "The world of competition is one of wins and losses. If there were no defeats, what would readers be looking forward to? And besides, this loss will only make readers look forward even more to the next win."

  At first, Zhang Chen was skeptical of Slam Dunk's success, thinking that Takehiko Inoue's behavior was just a whim and that having a famous name was all that mattered, regardless of the quality of the manga. However, as each chapter of Slam Dunk came out, he himself became fascinated with the series.

  Then Zhang Chen had to admit that his own concept was wrong, and he also recognized his own shortcomings.

  In the past, he drew comic protagonists who seemed to have all the advantages added on, but in reality, is such a perfect protagonist really good?

  Zhang Chen learned a lot from the comics and his attitude towards Su Xichen also changed gradually, from initial jealousy to current respect. He would ask questions whenever he had any, although Su Xichen was much younger than him in terms of age, Zhang Chen already regarded Su Xichen as his teacher.

  Su Renshan is busy creating comics in private, and on the "Dianfeng Baojian" website, a section has already appeared, and Su Renshan's new work "Murder on the Orient Express" has also been released.

  The section of "Dian Feng Bao Kan" does not have much introduction, only one line of large characters:
