Hong Kong Comic Master

A sharp-edged black Mazda 929 slowly stopped in a parking lot outside a stadium. ♦♦  ♦♦

This car, which was launched in 1986, has only existed for five years. Compared with other cars, the body of this car is smaller than that of other brands.

After the car was parked, a tall and strong man emerged from the small car.

He was wearing a tight jersey, which made him look like a gym suit.

Then he took out a bag from the car, which also looked like a mini version, and put it on his back. After locking the car door, he walked into the stadium.

"Mr. Ao! Is it the same table?"

"No, I have an appointment today!"

This is a billiard hall. The man is a frequent visitor here. He just said hello to the front desk and walked in directly.

"Ping... pong... pong... pong..."

As soon as he entered the stadium, he heard the sound of billiards coming from all directions.

"Ah Xiang, this way!"

Looking around, he heard someone calling him, so he looked over. At a pool table in the corner, two middle-aged men stopped playing, and one of them, a man with long hair, waved at him.

"Brother Zhong!"

"Ah Xiang, let me introduce you. This is our famous Taiwanese film director Zhu Yanping, and this is our Taiwanese Chinese pride Ao Youxiang. You two should meet each other!"

The person who introduced the two people was naturally Cai Zhizhong.

As more and more Taiwanese people came to Hong Kong Island to work, they also began to form groups and formed various hometown associations.

And Taiwanese who came to Hong Kong Island to work would also find this organization as soon as possible!

Zhu Yanping wanted to meet Ao Youxiang, so he introduced Ao Youxiang to this gym through Cai Zhizhong's introduction.

"Hello, Mr. Ao, I have heard of you for a long time!"

"Director Zhu is polite!"

Zhu Yanping is not short, but in front of the giant Ao Youxiang, he still looks like a hobbit.

"How many rounds first?"

Ao Youxiang knew the reason why Zhu Yanping came to him, but he didn't give Zhu Yanping a chance to speak, but played first.

It's not that Ao Youxiang wanted to show off to Zhu Yanping, but he really wanted to play.

As a cartoonist, he often has time to play, what does this mean?

It means that he really likes playing billiards!

When Zhu Yanping heard Ao Youxiang speak, of course he didn't object, after all, he was asking for help.

Now Ao Youxiang is more than just a cartoonist!

His "Ulongyuan" is not only popular in Hong Kong Island, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, but also entered the Japanese market four years ago and began to be serialized in "Weekly Century".

In 1987, "Ulongyuan" was also made into an animation by DreamWorks Animation Department. Not only did it have very high ratings in Hong Kong Island and Taiwan, but the animation also landed in Japan.

This is why he is called "the light of the Chinese", because he is the first cartoonist in Taiwan who can become famous in Japan.

Therefore, if Zhu Yanping wanted to adapt "Oolong Courtyard", he would be halfway to success if he could pull Ao Youxiang off the court.

In this case, he would naturally have to play with Ao Youxiang patiently.

However... Zhu Yanping obviously overestimated his table tennis skills.

"Pah!"

Ao Youxiang, who is 1.9 meters tall, was like a hungry tiger pouncing on its food. He used a horizontal straight pull like a smash to directly knock Zhu Yanping unconscious!

The table tennis ball hit the table on Zhu Yanping's side, bounced up, flew past Zhu Yanping's ear, and hit the wall behind him.

"21:8, I won!"

Although he was a weak opponent, Ao Youxiang seemed to be in high spirits and danced happily.

"Great, Axiang, you played really well!"

Zhu Yanping, who was glad that he escaped without being hit, said with a bitter smile.

"Hahaha, I just play often!"

Ao Youxiang, who couldn't stop smiling, didn't forget to be modest, but it was a pity that it was hard to be modest with this tone.

"No, no, brother Zhong, you come, I can't do it!"

Zhu Yanping waved his hand and looked like he had admitted defeat.

"Me? All right then!"

Cai Zhizhong is two years older than Zhu Yanping, already 41 years old, while Ao Youxiang is only 33 years old and plays often, so he beats Cai Zhizhong even more than Zhu Yanping.

Although Ao Youxiang has the body of a basketball player, he likes to play table tennis. The key is that he has a relatively broad body, which causes his flesh to shake with his arm movements when he plays.

The picture is so beautiful that people can't look directly at it.

"I can't do it either, Axiang, I think you're in the wrong profession, you should play basketball, not draw comics."

Cai Zhizhong, who also lost very easily, couldn't help but say with his hands on his waist.

"Hahaha, Brother Zhong, you think too highly of me. I can't even play in the professional group with my level!"

"Sure enough, every professional athlete is a genius in this area! I'm going to the toilet, you guys play!"

Cai Zhizhong escaped by urinating. On the one hand, he didn't want to play anymore, and on the other hand, it was to create an opportunity for the two to talk.

After all, Zhu Yanping asked him to act as a matchmaker this time, obviously to talk to Ao Youxiang. What kind of talk would it be if he stayed there all the time?

Sure enough, not long after Cai Zhizhong left, the remaining two stopped playing and sat down to rest.

"I have never been a screenwriter, how did you think of letting me be a screenwriter?"

Seeing Ao Youxiang take the initiative to bring up this matter, Zhu Yanping hurriedly said: "I talked to Manager Zhong, and she told me that Mr. Wansui once said: No one knows the meaning of the work better than the original author!

I agree with this sentence very much. I think that "Ulongyuan" is a successful work. Since it is successful, it must be that the original author did something right. Then as long as the original author continues to do it, it will naturally continue to be successful!

What's more, Mr. Wansui, isn't that what he did?"

Seeing Zhu Yanping mention his teacher, Ao Youxiang's heart suddenly moved.

As Li Wannian's apprentices, no one doesn't want to learn from Li Wannian, and Ao Youxiang is no exception.

Although he successfully achieved the god of a book, it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to get closer to Li Wannian.

Well, he also wants to improve!

So after a little thought, he said: "I have never been an editor. If I rely on myself, your movie will lose money, right?"

"Don't worry, I will find a professional screenwriter. You can be a consultant at that time. I will let this screenwriter serve you exclusively!"

Seeing that Zhu Yanping had said so much, Ao Youxiang finally agreed: "Okay!"

"Great!"

Seeing that Ao Youxiang agreed, Zhu Yanping was overjoyed.

"By the way, have you and DreamWorks reached an agreement?"

But then, Ao Youxiang asked another question.

This made Zhu Yanping feel cold in his heart. Of course, he had not reached an agreement yet. Not only that, the two sides still had a big disagreement.

But even so, Zhu Yanping still kept smiling and said: "Of course, the agreement has been almost reached. It's just a matter of signing the contract!"
