Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 399 What an Iron Man! (4000 words)
The Dongye manga website of Dongye Studio has a really good reputation in the inner circle of comic lovers.

They are all happy to have such a convenient comic website.

It's like Hiroshi Kanzaki, who has long been a loyal fan of Higashino Division.

At the beginning, he found solace when he was busy because of Higashinoji's "The Lonely Gourmet", so he fell into the deep pit of Higashinoji and fell in love with all his works.

Although there are many versions of Higashinoji's works, such as "Collector's Edition" and "Collector's Edition", he is now a small office worker in Tokyo, and he doesn't lack the money, so he bought them all.

When I brought my girlfriend to his house for the first time last time, the other party bought so many Higashinoji manga for him and felt that he was a little too fanatical.
He even vaguely felt that there was something wrong with his sexual orientation, and he liked Dong Yesi more than her.

Then Kanzaki Hiroshi recommended Higashinoji's manga to her.

Now both he and his girlfriend are fans of Higashino Division.

Both of them are considered sensible. A manga did not buy twenty or thirty copies directly like other irrational fans. It is normal for them to buy five or six copies for each copy, and do their best for Higashino .

At this time, the author of his own comics, Higashino Division, opened the website of Higashino Comics. Of course, he, a loyal fan, spared no effort to support it.

Don't say anything else, first register an account for your girlfriend.

Then use the identity information of parents to register two more accounts.

As for the others, he is not so fanatical about Higashinoji's works, so he can just recommend them to his family.

But what surprised Hiroshi Kanzaki was that the quality of Higashino's manga was really good.

Not only "Naoki Hansawa" is serialized.

Even Higashino's old works such as "Midnight Bell" and "The Winner Is Justice" are impressively on it.

Moreover, it is very easy to turn pages, the loading speed is also very fast, and you can also like the works you like
But the most important thing is that it is very convenient.

People only need to stay at home to watch the comics they want.

There is no need to go downstairs and walk 200 meters to the convenience store to buy comics and magazines.

It's really convenient.

People who like to read comics of course hope that they can see their favorite works with their hands. Who would like to walk 200 meters, 400 meters without any trouble?
Usually, some people don't even bother to go to a convenience store, which is only three or 40 meters away.

It has to be said that this novel method of web comics has indeed enriched the choices of most comic lovers in a sense.

Kanzaki Hiroshi has been employed for three years, but in terms of age, he is only in his early 25s this year. Of course he is very interested in this novel website.

The most important thing is that Dongye Manga also supports users from other countries to connect. Not only are there Japanese comments, but there are also some English and Chinese comments below.

It can also be seen from here
Dongye Manga's goal must be big.

"As expected of Mr. Higashino"

After roughly experiencing the functions of this website, Hiroshi Kanzaki silently gave a good review in his heart.

At the same time, he didn't forget to open the forums he often browsed.

Then Hiroshi Kanzaki discovered
In the comic resource area here, there are actually many people discussing things about Higashino Division and Higashino Manga.

After all, the Internet is a place where the new generation in Japan often gathers, and any interesting things are shared as soon as possible.

Many people agree with Kanzaki Hiroshi, they all think the operation mode of Higashino Manga is very interesting, and they are going to wait for more people to try it out before joining it.

After all, online payment is still a relatively novel thing in Japan today, especially when you use real money in exchange for points from Higashino Comics to buy virtual comics.z
This of course has to wait for others to test the waters.

It is normal for consumers to remain rational.

On the other hand, Higashino Division did not understand the discussions of these inner circles.

He just glanced at the operation of Dongye Comics every day, looking at the statistics that were not particularly optimistic, and at the same time proposed various means of improvement.

He took out coupons, discount coupons and other things that were often used in previous lives.

However, in terms of effectiveness, it is not satisfactory.

"Teacher Dongye, look at this"

Higashino, who was checking the Blu-ray sales of "Unnatural Death" this week, looked up.

He found Hosokawa Koharu standing in front of him panting.

Seeing her red face, Higashino guessed that the other party came trotting all the way.

What the hell happened?
Higashino took the small newspaper that Hosokawa Koharu was holding in his hand, and glanced at it at the same time.

Then the first headline of the newspaper above made Dong Yesi stunned.

"Hansawa Naoki" author Higashino delusional to build a manga monopoly empire, but the original shape has been revealed. '

Ok?
What the hell is this?

Higashino continued to look down.

Just looking at it, Dong Yesi probably understood what the author of this article wanted to express.

Probably to criticize Higashino Tsukasa for founding Higashino Manga, and feel that he, as the leader of the industry today, has not taken the lead at all. Instead, he has always wanted to use his influence in the manga industry to create a system that monopolizes Japanese manga. .

This is undoubtedly a big hat.

After all, "monopoly" is not a good thing no matter when it is.

Monopolizing an industry means that the diversity of this industry will disappear, and the industry will become single and sluggish.

After criticizing Higashino Division, the author of this article pointed out that he did not understand the current market at all, and that the rise of pixiv was mostly due to luck.

If one only read what the other party said in the newspaper, some people would believe it, thinking that Dong Yesi was a heinous and wicked person.

This made Higashino couldn't help nodding after reading the whole article.

This writing skills. The writing is really amazing.

It can be said that every word is precious, holding a knife on his neck, wishing him to die.

The most important thing is that in the end, the author was kind enough to persuade him, hoping that Division Higashino would disband Higashino Studio and refocus on manga creation.

This is really red face and white face being sung by this guy alone.

If it wasn't for the fact that the other party came to discredit him, Dong Yesi would probably give him a thumbs up.

But since the other party has already made a black hand against him, Dong Yesi didn't hesitate, and felt that he must show the other party a little bit of color.

But certainly not now.

Because the business situation of Dongye Comics is really not optimistic, and you deserve to be scolded. You took the lead in touching the cake of the Internet, of course someone will speak up.

But if Dong Yesi really waited until the day when the situation recovered.
He will definitely not show mercy to these guys who stabbed themselves in newspapers and magazines.

After all, just by looking at the format of the newspaper article, it can be seen that this guy must have received money, otherwise he would not be so smug.

Director Higashino thought carefully, and at the same time glanced at the author of this article.

Good guy, still an acquaintance.Isn't this the old Kawanishi scholar?

That is, he has an older sister or a younger sister, who is the wife of a director of the Rock Building Publishing House.

No wonder this guy would jump out and sing the opposite when the business situation on his side was not optimistic.

This guy is obviously very cunning, he belongs to the kind of person who cherishes his feathers very much, otherwise he wouldn't have jumped out to speak up until today.

Higashino took note of this Kawanishi scholar, and comforted Hosokawa Koharu, telling her not to take it to heart, and went back to continue to help with work.

His expression was quite normal, which made Hosokawa Koharu ask Higashino Division in his heart, could it be that he has a heart made of steel?

What an iron man!
This kind of public opinion pressure can still remain unchanged!
She nodded and went back to work.

But as soon as she left on her front foot, Nakano Yusaki had already taken the initiative to find Higashino Division on her back foot.

It turned out that in the past few days, according to the description in Dong Yesi's "The Grudge" manuscript, she actually restored the image of Kayako, a classic Japanese female ghost in "The Grudge".

"It looks pretty good."

Holding a few pages of manuscript paper drawn by Nakano Yusaki in his hand, Higashino couldn't help but nodded.

Really good.

What Higashino asked her to draw was the plot when Yusuke Kobayashi visited the house of Zobo Kayako.

And the other party did not disappoint him.

There are not many broken places in the painting, and the use of colors and shadows is also very particular.

It is the traces of imitating Higashino Division in the storyboard.

But this is not a big deal.

Creation, originally started from imitation.

Even Arisaki Nakano, who brought the manuscript over, was full of pride, feeling that he had finally fulfilled Higashino Tsukasa's request this time.

But
"There are still many problems." Dong Yesi first praised, and then added.

"Is there still something wrong?"

Nakano Yusaki couldn't help scratching his scalp when he heard Higashino's words, and widened his eyes, a little unhappy: "What's wrong again? Teacher Higashino? I don't think so"

"You leave too much text description."

Before Arisaki Nakano could finish speaking, Tsukasa Higashino had already spoken on his own initiative.

Then he pointed to one of the grids above the manga manuscript.

The entire frame of the storyboard is all written by Nakano Yusaki.

I saw that it said, "The days in early summer seem to be very long. When Shunsuke Kobayashi finished his school work and was about to go home, the sky didn't look like the sun was going down." '

This long paragraph is not accompanied by any pictures, it is just a simple text description.

Kobayashi Yusuke is the person whom Chuanyou Kayako secretly loves in "The Grudge", and he is also one of the most key figures in the formation of "The Grudge" by Kayako's haunted house. It is not a big problem to introduce him.

but--

Higashino Division tapped the table lightly, and explained:
"Readers are reading comics, not novels, or short plays. You can either directly discard or draw the picture description in this paragraph, instead of expressing it in a long paragraph like this. This affects the perception."

This is a common mistake novice manga writers make.

There is too much whitespace in the text.

It's like watching "One Piece", "Naruto" or "Dragon Ball".

If there is a form that must be expressed in blank text, it must be a short sentence, or a few short bytes.

And it is absolutely impossible to squeeze a paragraph into a whole grid.

This affects the overall perception too much.

Listening to Higashino Tsukasa's explanation, Nakano Yusaki also opened his mouth, but couldn't think of any rebuttal words for a while.

"Well, I'll also draw this part of the plot for you to see."

Higashino Division did not continue to let Nakano Yusaki continue to draw, but asked her to sit down and wait for him to finish the demonstration of the plot of "The Grudge".

Holding the pen, he exhaled lightly, then shook his head with a smile, and muttered to himself: "It's been a long time since I drew this kind of horror cartoon."

His drawing skills have now made great progress, much better than the previous "Midnight Ring" period.

Because of this, he rarely touched the subject of horror comics again.

After all, when he drew this thing, he was inexplicably trembling in his heart.

Higashino Division muttered in his heart, but his subordinates did not stop.

He skillfully used the G-pen to draw the storyboard he wanted with ease.

This whole process can be said to be familiar with the road, without any pause at all.

Nakano Yusaki was stunned as she watched from the side.

Mr. Higashino, this is too silky, isn't it?
It's completely different from when I painted it before.

It felt like a printer, spitting out the manuscript in an orderly manner.

Humans can't do this, right?

She stared at it in a daze, and when she came back to her senses, several original manuscripts had been neatly drawn.

"Okay."

Higashino Division handed a few manuscripts to Yusaki Nakano: "I'll go outside to get some fresh air, and take a break by the way, just take a look at it."

He didn't care that Arisaki Nakano was stunned, he handed the manuscript to the other party and stood up.

It's just that she hadn't started turning over yet, on the other side, Qianxia saw Higashinoji leave, and immediately jumped over and shouted, "Let me see it too!"

This is the first horror comic drawn by the author of "Midnight Ring" after three years!

No painter can resist this temptation.

Qianxia on the mountain has already made up her mind.

Even if she was scared to death after reading it today, she would have to read the actual level of Dongyesi's horror comics.

The two little girls were so curiously flipping through the "The Grudge" that Higashinosi had just drawn, and started to read page by page.
Yusuke Kobayashi is a teacher at a nearby elementary school. Today he made an appointment to visit Saeki's home.

Can.
"what happened?"

Table lamps with lampshades, chairs and tables piled up in a mess, broken vases and dishes, sinks that fell to pieces, refrigerators with broken lids, broken potted plants and planters, books, notebooks and photo books.
The interior of the room, which was burned red by the setting sun, was disorganized.

everything is chilling
Kobayashi Yusuke stood in such a place, inexplicably feeling cold.

It's as if the feelings of the characters in the work are transmitted to oneself.

Even Chinatsu Yamagami and Yusaki Nakano who were watching this work couldn't help shrinking their heads and swallowing.

An unexplainable sense of panic surged from my heart for no reason.

Is this the strength of Tonoji?

Obviously nothing has appeared in the comics, and I haven't seen any ghosts——

Just the ambiance of the room.

But it gave them a suffocating feeling of being pinched by the neck with cold hands.
