===35 A down-and-out cartoonist===(None Edited)

The so-called formula book by a down-to-earth cartoonist is a set of game settings. It is a detailed introduction to the in-game worldview, characters, creatures, equipment, etc. in the auxiliary game itself. It is the most popular among diehard fans and sophisticated fans. Love.

  Zhu Yuxing originally wanted to talk about the setting directly, but expressing it in the formula book of the manga world will make Ikeda Daigo clearer.

  Ikeda Daigo was surprised.

  "Zhuyou-kun, you said that you still need to assist in the compilation of the formula book? This...this is no longer just a propaganda painting, right?"

  Zhuyouxing nodded: "Yes, what I want to do is a video game, and electronic The setting of the game will even go beyond the general comics, so I need a long-term partner, and preferably a certain reputation."

  Assisting in the writing of the formula book is not a small project for a comic artist. .

  It's just that no one has ever asked a cartoonist to do this kind of thing in the past.

  No, not at all.

  Even in the current movies, there is no such formula book. At most, it is just a detailed record of some of the director's own essays. No one will deliberately find an outsider to make a formula book.

  "That Zhuyou-kun, I want to ask, what is the video game you're talking about?"

  "This is a brand-new form of entertainment, and I can't explain it to you in a short time. If you want to understand, I'll give you an address, and you tell the boss there that I introduced it, and he'll show you on the spot what video games really are."

  Brand new entertainment? Ikeda Daigo pondered.

  "Well, I give two conditions to choose one, one of which is that I will hire a manga teacher for a year at a monthly salary of 500,000 yen, and we can continue to talk after a year."

  "The second condition is that I will give a basic salary of 180,000 yuan a month, but the cartoonist can get 5% of the future share of the entire series of the game."

  If it was Zhu Yuxing, he would definitely choose the second one, because He can foresee how huge the development of the game will be in the future.

  And if possible, Zhu Yuxing also hopes that the other party can choose this, because this will completely bind a cartoonist, at least twenty or thirty years without worrying about problems.

  However, this is equivalent to giving people an invisible empty check, so Zhu Yuxing also gave the first choice.

  Let you be willing to cooperate with me in the first year, and then you can seriously consider the issue of sharing in the second year, but you will earn less of the first year's share.

  Half a million yen.

  Ikeda Daigo was a little surprised.

  He doesn't yet understand what a video game is, but roughly understands that it's going to be a very complex thing.

  In today's Japan, if a college student can find a job after graduation, it is about 180,000 yen.

  Under normal circumstances, 300,000 yen is a relatively positive benefit, and the average income of regular employees of the company after working for four or five years.

  This income has barely budged in the more than two decades since the bubble burst.

  This is also one of the reasons why many people call it the lost twenty or thirty years.

  And Zhu Yuxing, willing to give a salary of 500,000 yen at the beginning, this level is enough to make a despondent cartoonist heart.

  By the way, a down-and-out manga artist, and a little bit famous...

  Ikeda Daigo instantly remembered Mr. Tsuchiya who was chatting with the editor before.

  After the first work debuted at the peak, it plummeted.

  Although he has not yet reached the level of making ends meet, life has gradually become a little bit worse. Some famous cartoonists were very generous at the beginning, and some even went into debt after the bubble burst and eventually collapsed.

  Mr. Tugu was lucky. On the eve of the bubble burst, when the quality of his comics was not very high, he devoted himself to studying how to draw comics well, and he did not spend much money.

  Or, this is another kind of luck.

  If you can help him find this job, at least for a short time, he will no longer have to worry about starving to death without comic income.

  After a while of precipitation, if Mr. Tugu makes a comeback, perhaps his grades will skyrocket again.

  Thinking of this, Ikeda Dawu immediately said: "If it is this salary, then I have nothing to say. I don't think anyone will refuse this kind of payment."

  If a stranger suddenly approached him and said what he just said, he estimated Be a liar, or a lunatic.

  However, this is Mr. Yazi's child, and just by virtue of Mr. Yazi's reputation, his child is absolutely impossible to deceive people because of this trivial matter.

  So, he was ready to introduce Mr. Tugu to Zhu Yuxing.

  "Tsuchiya Sansuke, Takeyou-kun, have you heard of this teacher? He has a relatively famous comic work."

  "No, I don't know much."

  He didn't know much about many celebrities in the world.

  This is equivalent to the parallel world of his previous life. Many celebrities are different, and after crossing over, he has devoted most of his time to making games, and has no time to study those celebrities in this world.

  Therefore, he would think of asking his mother to help him find a suitable candidate.

  "I think this Mr. Tugu should meet your standards very well and has a certain reputation, but... the quality of the works in recent years has not been very good, so the popularity has gradually declined."

  Zhu Yuxing immediately understood.

  In the past life, there are not a few cartoonists who made their debut at the peak.

  This kind of cartoonist is often not bad at drawing, and most of them have problems in the writing of the story.

  Comics can really eat talent sometimes.

  Some cartoonists who are neurotic can attract people with neurotic stories, but their drawing skills don't necessarily need to be very good.

  However, some cartoonists have tried their best to study the plot, but in the end they can only stop at the entry level, which is disappointing. In the end, they can only improve their drawing skills painstakingly, but it is difficult to stop the decline.

  "I'll give you Mr. Tugu's contact information... No, I'll contact him now, or go to your place."

  Ikeda Daigo is not willing to give up such a money-making opportunity.

  He must win it for Mr. Tugu.

  After all, Mr. Tugu was trained by him once, and he didn't want Mr. Tugu to be completely devastated.

  "Don't be so polite, let's meet at the magazine office. It's good for both parties, otherwise I will show that I don't respect the teacher too much."

  "Okay, then I will contact Mr. Tugu now.

  " Meeting at the magazine, this is what Ikeda Daigo wants to see most.

  Because he also wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of person Zhu Youxing was.

  Judging from the age of Master Masako, I am afraid that Zhu Yuxing will be very young.

  Starting a business at such a young age and seeming to be starting a whole new kind of entertainment sounds amazing.

  And he also really wanted to see what the so-called formula book would be.
