Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 56 How Editor Hosokawa Guided Mr. Higashino

Higashinoji didn't know what was happening outside, in fact he didn't know what Kuromiya Mingsa and the others were thinking.

He just got the data from Hosokawa Koharu that ""Midnight Ring" ranked first in the expedited reader ratings", and then he didn't pay much attention to the specific situation of "The Chill".

After all, compared to those, the most important thing for him now is to paint the work he participated in the adult group of the Tokyo Youth Painting Award - "Tokyo".

"That should be fine."

Looking at the completed oil painting in front of him, Higashinoji nodded in satisfaction.

The whole picture is filled with warm white and yellow dazzling lights, and the pedestrians become exaggerated under the pull of the lights, showing a kind of exaggerated color. The whole Tokyo street seems to be wrapped in a luxurious atmosphere, and the dazzling sense of brilliance makes everything Everything is crumbling, but the bustling atmosphere is finally dominated by the image of a down-and-out middle-aged man, suppressed by the cold and gloomy blue-black tones, and the overly realistic style of painting tore apart the illusion of luxury and feasting.

The whole portrait is fragmented, but it looks so unified as a whole.

Contrast, contradiction, irony, unity.

This is what Higashino Division wanted to express, and he did it all.

This painting is his most outstanding work since he came to this world.

It is not ruled out that there will be more outstanding works in the future, but this painting is indeed the work that the current Higashino has used all the skills to draw it, and it is also his most complete work.

The next step is to wait for the paint to dry completely, and then send "Tokyo" to the Japan Art Education Association.

"That's about it." Higashinosi put down his brush, and at the same time glanced sideways at the other girls in the studio.

In the past few days, I haven't seen Yoshiko Okano coming to 'harass' me again. After all, his work for the Tokyo Youth Painting Award has already been submitted.

In addition, Ryoko Okano also has other students who need to be guided. Of course, she will not take care of a student like Higashino who is clearly 'over the class'.

Even the studio was free for Higashino to come and go.

Although it seems loose, this privilege is currently only owned by Higashinoji in the entire studio.

Others have no opinion.

After all, they also asked Dong Yesi a lot of things.

As the saying goes, if the mouths of cannibals are soft, they will naturally not say anything.

And the little girls who are painting "Tokyo" by Higashinosi have also seen it, but they just took a cursory look and left.

They felt that it was not Dong Yeji's entry anyway, so they didn't need to pay too much attention.

The days passed in such an ordinary time.

then--

Afternoon, Urashima Publishing House.

"The new ranking of readers' favorable ratings is out! There is also the sale of this issue of "Aversion to Chill."

I don't know if it was the editor who reminded me that Hosokawa Koharu, who was working hard to review the manuscript, raised his head.

She happened to see the editor-in-chief Urashima coming from the direction of the service department holding two forms in his hand.

Is it this time again?

Hosokawa Koharu couldn't help complaining secretly.

As I said before, due to the long-term lack of real mainstay comics in the weekly "Aversion to Chill", coupled with the lack of comic scripts nowadays, "Aversion to Chill" as a whole has an excellent comic 'dating' phenomenon.

Only the few excellent horror comics like "Between the Dolls" obviously cannot support the big plate of the weekly "Chill".

What "Aversion to Chill" needs is a manga that can really stand firm, like the pillar comics of Higashinoji's previous JUMP "Hokage" and "Pirate"!

Therefore, as soon as the generational phenomenon appeared, the sales of "Bad Chill" showed a slow but steady downward trend.

So every time when announcing the sales volume of "Aversion to Chill", the editor-in-chief Urashima always criticizes the editors below with soft and hard words.

Although it is useless, it is still necessary to keep the editors below in an aggressive state, so as not to be picked by Fuji Publishing, which is about to catch up later.

No one likes to be criticized, and so is Hosokawa Koharu, but when she thinks of "Midnight Ring" readers' positive ratings

This made her more or less excited to wait for the editor-in-chief Urashima to announce the specific data of this week's "Aversion to Chill".

"I won't talk about the scene, let's go straight to the topic."

Editor-in-Chief Urashima glanced down, and then said: "The first is the reader's favorable rate."

Hosokawa Koharu clearly felt editor-in-chief Urashima glance at him, and then he heard editor-in-chief Urashima announce: "The No. [-] reader rating is "Midnight Bell" in charge of editor Hosokawa."

At this moment, the editors below started a quarrel. They looked at each other, obviously not expecting this result.

"It's unbelievable," someone whispered.

That's right.

Even the editors below never thought that this time they would be taken by "Midnight Ring", instead of "Between Dolls" as always.

Even Hosokawa Koharu is like this.

Although she has always felt that Higashino Division has the strength to win, but this is too exaggerated.

You must know that the promotion of the OVA animation of "Between the Dolls" is still going on, and the news of "Between the Dolls" is all over the major magazines and tabloids.

"Aversion to Chill" itself is also promoting it.

In addition, "Between the Dolls" has been serialized for a year and has been loved by countless senior readers. It has fixed votes from some readers.

No matter how good the quality of "Midnight Bell" is, is it possible that it can compare to "Between Dolls" that Urashima Publishing has exhausted resources and has fixed tickets?

And even if the first episode of "Midnight Ring" is excellent, is it possible that the second episode can be as good as the first episode?

But the facts gave them a head-on blow. "Midnight Ring" took a lot (first), and squeezed "Between Dolls" from the top.

"You probably haven't read the second episode of "Midnight Ring", right?" Editor-in-Chief Urashima glanced at the editors below: "Actually, as long as you read the second episode, you will feel that this is the first, Higashino The teacher deserves it!"

He spoke sharply and seriously.

Some editors below lowered their heads in embarrassment.

There is no way, the first episode of "Midnight Ring" casts too much shadow on them, so a considerable part of the editors deliberately did not read the content of "Midnight Ring" second episode.

"Since the editor-in-chief has read it, can you tell us the specific content of the second chapter?"

An editor at the bottom asked in a low voice.

"You still want to ask me about the content of the second chapter? Go and see for yourself! Or ask editor Hosokawa." Editor-in-chief Urashima snorted, and with one sentence, blocked the editor's way out.

All the editors looked at Hosokawa Koharu, mostly with curiosity and envy.

Yes

It's unbelievable how "Ring Ring" won the number one spot.

"How did editor Hosokawa train Mr. Higashino, the author of "Midnight Ring"? I'm really curious."

Someone nearby asked Hosokawa Koharu curiously.

then

Hosokawa Koharu's facial expression became stiff.
