Parental Love: Jiang Weimin's Life of Lying Down

Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

Time passed like a white horse, and 1974 quietly came to 1975.

During this period of time, many things happened that made people feel the colorfulness and changes in life.

The first thing to say is the good news from Aunt Jiang Dehua - she is pregnant! Ding Xiaoyang is about to come into this world, and this good news makes the whole family ecstatic.

At the same time, the editor of Shandong Publishing House came to visit in person.

They spoke highly of Jiang Weimin's works and offered many attractive conditions, hoping that Jiang Weimin would join Shandong Publishing House. However, both Jiang Weimin and An Jie adhered to their principles and did not agree easily.

After completing the work "Police Dog Attack - Vault Mystery", Jiang Weimin did not start painting his next work for three months, but instead collected materials for the next work.

During this period, Editor Liu from Qingdao Publishing House repeatedly asked Jiang Weimin to create as soon as possible, but Jiang Weimin rejected the request by saying that he was still collecting information.

Because the position of deputy chief of staff of the fortress area became vacant right after Jiang Dehua's child was born in the TV series, Jiang Weimin wanted to see if he could help a little.

Jiang Defu was naturally aware of the vacancies in the fortress area in the TV series. However, as an experienced and emotionally intelligent person, he was powerless in the face of this trend of the times.

In the 1970s, Jiang Defu was in his early fifties and had worked as a division commander for many years. He had the opportunity to be promoted, but due to family influence, he was unable to do so.

As a result, by the early 1980s, family relationships were no longer an issue, and he was almost 60 years old. The overall trend at that time was for military cadres to become younger.

During the special period, a large number of senior military cadres in their 40s and 50s accumulated. When promoting cadres, his age not only did not have an advantage, but became a disadvantage. Retirement was the best and most suitable arrangement for him.

Jiang Weimin sat in a chair, tapping his fingers on the table, thinking about what his advantages were.

He knew he was good at drawing, but it didn't seem to be a skill that would be immediately useful.

In addition, he has a deep understanding of modern military theories.

Finally, he thought about his own experience of being influenced by the modern story system.

The characters, plot designs and emotional expressions in these stories deeply influenced him.

Perhaps he could use these elements to create a unique style of comic strip.

However, to truly achieve his goal, creativity alone is not enough. He needs to find a suitable platform to showcase his works, and Qingdao Publishing House is his platform.

So, Jiang Weimin began to think about how to make his father Jiang Defu's reputation more famous before the review team arrived.

Jiang Weimin believes that by enhancing his father's reputation through comic strips, Jiang Defu's competitiveness can be improved and more possibilities for future development.

Jiang Weimin knows very well that establishing a good reputation is crucial to one's success.

A good reputation can not only help people establish good interpersonal relationships and enhance mutual feelings, but also improve their own credibility and influence.

So Jiang Weimin planned to draw a long comic strip based on Jiang Defu.

The comic strip tells the story of the large and small battles that Jiang Defu participated in from the Anti-Japanese War to the Korean War.

Through comic strips, efforts were made to create a positive image and make Jiang Defu's name the focus of everyone's attention.

Jiang Weimin named the book "Father's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression", also known as "The Passionate War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression".

Jiang Weimin planned to use the model of One Piece to draw this comic book in the early stage. The story begins with recruiting masters with special skills from the army and civilians to form his own assault team to participate in and win one battle after another.

In the process, a simple upgrade concept is added so that characters and teams can improve in combat or when accepting new military theories.

This upgrade setting was a brand new concept in China in the 70s. It could satisfy people's curiosity, stimulate readers' dopamine, and attract the author to read on little by little.

Then there is the depiction of the collection of various materials after the victory of the war, including weapons and equipment such as firearms and artillery.

The Chinese seem to be born with an instinct to collect supplies, and this instinct can always come in handy at critical moments, both in ancient times and in modern times.

In modern society, collecting supplies has become a popular novel theme, and readers are keen to read stories about how the protagonist survives difficult situations and obtains the resources they need.

These novels not only demonstrate human resilience and wisdom, but also make people feel the difficulty of living in difficult circumstances.

Finally, Jiang Defu’s military ideas are combined with modern military theories and cleverly integrated into the entire comic strip.

It is presented through vivid pictures, making it easier for the audience to understand and accept.

Jiang Weimin believed that the addition of so many elements would definitely shine in the 70s when entertainment was scarce.

This comic strip is aimed at ordinary people and tells exciting battle stories;

At the same time, it also conveys Jiang Defu's military thoughts and ideas to senior military officials.

Such a design can not only meet the public's demand for entertainment, but also help Jiang Defu gain a good reputation among the top military officials.

Since he had this idea, Jiang Weimin could not wait to find his father Jiang Defu and proposed to him the plan to create a comic book based on his prototype.

However, Jiang Defu seemed a little hesitant at first. After all, Chinese people are usually more reserved.

Jiang Weimin had no choice but to ask his mother An Jie for help, hoping that she could whisper in Jiang Defu's ear. After some efforts, Jiang Defu finally nodded in agreement, but at the same time he also asked to use a pseudonym in the story.

Next, Jiang Weimin began to actively prepare for the work. He asked his father to help find relevant map materials, and recorded his father's experience in the war of resistance in detail and then sorted it out.

This is undoubtedly due to their good family environment. They can ask their family members for advice at any time, which is as convenient as having a human computer.

Later, Jiang Weimin transformed Jiang Dehua's room into his own studio, and carefully made a sand table of the central Shandong region in the center of the studio. The story begins with the anti-mopping-up in the central Shandong region.

The central Shandong region has an important strategic position. It is adjacent to the Longhai Railway in the south, the Jinpu Railway in the west, the Jiaoji Railway in the north, and the Yellow Sea in the east. It is a good place to carry out guerrilla warfare.

When all preparations are done, Jiang Defu's anti-Japanese war career will slowly begin.
