Tokyo life starting with painting

Chinatsu Yamayama is an artist apprentice at PW Animation Production Company. She basically has no experience in animation production. She only officially won the position in the animation industry after graduating from an ordinary Japanese junior college with her love for painting and her cleverness in doing things. I had the opportunity to work at PW Animation Production Company and became an official original animator apprentice.

She had been happy about this for a long time. After all, it was hard to find a job these days, and it was even harder to find a job that she loved. In addition, she originally graduated from a third-rate art university and had a very poor academic record. Natural disadvantage, passing the interview at PW Animation Production Company was purely a matter of luck.

As a result, before she could be happy for two days, something happened that dumbfounded her - PW Animation Production Company had a fire and the entire company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

This was simply a disaster from heaven. Shanxia Qianxia was so depressed that she almost vomited blood.

She was ready to pack up her belongings and try her luck with an animation production company again to find a way out.

As a result, before she could take action, Yano Ryuichi called and announced that they didn't have to rush to find a new home. Higashinoji was willing to take over the mess of PW Animation Production Company!

Shanxia Qianxia was stunned when she heard the news.

That's Higashinoji.

A national phenomenon comic book author is actually willing to take over the mess of PW Animation Production Company?

This news hit her all over with bruises and swollen face, and she was caught off guard. Before she could react, another piece of news came through that caught her even more off guard.

Higashino decided to continue producing "The Winner Is Justice".

Even their three original painting apprentices had to join in the painting work of the original painting.

You must know that apprentices like them usually work for the official original painter on the side, supplement the details of the original drawing by the original painter, and study beside them for half a year or one year before they can officially become the original painter. , took over the painting work.

But this time Higashinoji actually asked them to join him in the battle to kill the enemy.

This made Shanxia Qianxia feel even more stressed, and she didn't know how to start.

However, Chinatsu Yamayama is also very smart and understands the reason why Higashinoji did this - Higashino Studio really lacks manpower, and the production period of "The Winner is Justice" is also very tight, so that they have to recruit people like them who don't have much work experience. Apprentices come to recharge.

"But can it really be done?" Shanxia Qianxia thought, turning her head to glance at the equally nervous apprentice sitting next to her, feeling a little unsure.

They were waiting for Higashinoji to come.

As for Higashinoji himself, Chinatsu Yamayama had seen him just now. He was a young man with a delicate face. He looked like a morning hero when he stood smiling and talking to Yano Ryuichi. He looked gentle and very good-looking.

But it's not that Yamano Chinatsu looks down on herself, but to put it nicely, the three of them are pure waste. Not only are they useless in the painting work, they may even be a hindrance.

After all, the three of them don't have that much work experience at all.

There were even two people who simply could not adapt to the urgent and depressing atmosphere of the painting scene.

Although Higashinoji is a national-level manga author, he still takes this aspect for granted.

Shanxia Chinatsu sighed as she thought about it, feeling that there was a high probability that she would be chosen as the scapegoat by Higashinoji this time.

If "The Winner Is Justice" is not produced well, Higashinoji can openly and legitimately push the three of them to take the blame. After all, the three of them are the weakest people in terms of qualifications, seniority, and age. Take them out. There is no psychological pressure at all in making a sacrifice.

Various conspiracy theories flashed through her mind. It was obvious that she had watched too many bloody TV series.

At this moment, the sound of Yano Ryuichi and Higashinoji pushing the door in suddenly came to Shanxia Chinatsu's ears.

This made her stand up directly with the other two, bowed respectfully, and shouted: "Thank you for your hard work."

After saying this, Shanxia Chinatsu was obviously different from the other two apprentices who were curiously looking at Higashinoji himself. She just lowered her head, looking obedient and obedient.

Then Shanxia Qianxia heard Yano Ryuichi's introduction: "Teacher Higashino, look, these are some of the painter apprentices we recruited before, and their names and information are all here."

"Yes." Higashinoji glanced at Shanxia Qianxia and others, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yano-san, pick me a smarter apprentice to be my deputy."

Deputy?

Isn't this the royal position of taking the blame?

Unlike the other two apprentices who were obviously excited, Yamayama Chinatsu felt that this scapegoat was too shady, and all she wanted to do was not call her name.

But it can only be said that this year is not a lucky year for her. She has not encountered any good things and has encountered all sorts of unlucky things.

Yano Ryuu smiled and without much hesitation, he directly pointed at Yamayama Chinatsu, who was lowering his head and chanting sutras: "Yamayama-san, you can be Mr. Higashino's deputy."

"I'm very happy." Shanxia Qianxia, ​​whose name was called, raised her head and showed a 'bright' smile, with the corners of her mouth twitching faintly in the dark.

There was a one-third chance of getting her.

What else can be done?

Wouldn't it be enough to just take the pot obediently?

Sensing the envious expressions of the other two apprentices, Shanxia Qianxia was so depressed that she almost vomited blood.

These silly fools probably thought that they, the lucky ones, could learn something by following Higashinoji.

But she knew that a busy man like Higashinoji would have no time to teach her how to draw something?

It is estimated that as soon as the painting stage is entered, Tonoji will leave her there and be used as a tool. By the time an animation is produced, Tonoji will not even be able to remember her name - this is not the case in other animation production companies. Very common thing.

But what's the use of being aggrieved? Higashino Tsukasa, the de facto owner of the studio, was named, so she still dared to express her objections?

She stood helplessly aside and glanced sideways at Higashinoji - he was indeed handsome, but he just treated himself as a tool, alas.

But Higashinoji didn't care what Chinatsu Yamayama was thinking. After sending Yano Ryuichi away, he simply announced to these painter apprentices: "First of all, I have to make my intention clear. Everyone here will join me. Currently working on the original painting of "The Winner Is Justice"."

Shanxia Qianxia couldn't help but lowered her head again.

Higashinoji was smiling cheerfully, but he was really fast and resolute in doing things, without giving him any buffer time.

After listening to Higashinoji's words, the two apprentices showed hesitant expressions, and one of the boys couldn't help raising his hand: "But Mr. Higashino, none of us have any experience in actually participating in painting work. We may... "

Regarding the boy's statement, Higashinoji just smiled: "It's just painting. You can draw with your hands. It's just a matter of whether you draw well or poorly. Everyone here has received a formal higher education in painting. I have great confidence in you."

These words made the following apprentices lose their temper.

Because what Higashinoji said is true, painting is just a matter of skill.

Seeing that no one refuted, Higashinoji continued: "Don't overly deify the drawing of the original painting. In fact, I have also participated in the drawing of the original painting with little experience. The difficulty can only be said to be average. If I insist on saying so, it is The number of original paintings that must be completed within a specified time is more difficult to accomplish.”

"What should we do?" The boy with glasses standing next to Chinatsu on the mountain raised his hand and asked in a low voice.

Higashino replied with a smile: "I don't have many requirements for you. I just hope that you can let go of your hands and draw. For you, the more important thing is the accumulation of experience."

"Don't have any psychological burden. No matter whether the painting is ugly or the style is inconsistent, you must hand in your manuscript - if there is anything that cannot be completed, I will take care of it for you."

As he spoke, Higashinoji tapped the table gently: "Only by accumulating experience can you become a skilled original animator, so I hope you don't be timid and you can ask me if you have any questions."

Higashinoji was talking here, and the two apprentices there were also listening carefully, but Shanxia Qianxia didn't take it to heart.

I think it's just a cliché from Higashinoji at most.

After all, if Higashinoji really did what he said, wouldn't he be a teacher for these three apprentices?

Higashinoji is a busy man, how can he have time to take care of these apprentices?

Shanxia Qianxia naturally would not say these words, but listened carefully.

Wait until ten minutes later.

After Higashinoji finished speaking, he took Shanxia Qianxia and others to the workbench.

At this time, Dongye Studio has begun official operations.

Both the original painting team and the supervision team have entered a state of first-level alert. No one is talking or laughing. Everyone has their heads lowered, either drawing or discussing the details of the animation in a low voice. Occasionally, some people make loud noises. , that is, the criticism coming from the supervisory side.

This atmosphere makes several apprentices who have just entered the society feel a little overwhelmed.

This was their first time participating in original painting work. How had they ever seen such a serious occasion?

But Higashinoji smiled at them and told them not to be nervous, just sit back in their seats and try their best to draw the original painting.

The deputy, Yamayama Chinatsu, was arranged by Higashinoji to sit next to him, and this was considered to be the official start of work.

Although Chinatsu Yamayama had some doubts about Higashinoji's arrangements, she still liked this industry after all. While sitting next to Higashinoji and waiting for his orders, she also lowered her head and painted seriously.

But what Shanxia Qianxia didn't expect was that at the end of the day, Tonoji didn't ask her to bring tea or water or sweep the floor and wipe the table.

This made Chinatsu Yamayama a little surprised, but she didn't dare to ask Higashinoji why. She just felt that Higashinoji was indeed different from others.

Higashikata didn't care about her mood at all.

Not only "The Winner Is Justice" but now "Unnatural Death" has just reached the final stage of the sixth event (Episode 6). It must be concluded carefully, otherwise it will affect the single volume of "Unnatural Death" Sales Results.

During this time, Yano Ryuichi introduced two other supervisors to Higashinoji, Minagawa Yoji and Kudo Shinichi.

To be honest, when he heard the name Kudou Shinichi, Higashinoji was shocked. After confirming repeatedly that the other party was not the Kudo Shinichi in his mind, he just had the same name and would not cause the tragedy of a dead elementary school student, Higashinoji then Reluctantly relieved, he greeted them enthusiastically.

The two supervisors felt a little relieved when they saw that Higashinoji was so easy to talk to. After all, although Yano Ryuichi spoke well, no one had ever seen Higashinoji, the actual boss, with their own eyes, so they couldn't figure out his character, so naturally they felt a little uneasy.

Shanxia Chinatsu dealt with Higashinoji's requests from time to time and observed them silently for two days before finally touching her head with a look of astonishment on her face - could it be that she had really made a mistake?

It is true that Higashinoji did not call her all day long. At most, he asked her to bring the original paintings of the other two apprentices to him for a look. It was a very ordinary original painting inspection.

Moreover, Higashinoji's attitude was also very good. Even if the apprentice handed in a very low-level original painting, Higashinoji would just look at it and laugh twice, and did not directly scold him like others.

Then let them keep trying and ignore temporary failures.

This made the other two apprentices feel a little embarrassed.

In addition, Higashinoji also corrected many details of their painting habits.

For example, the glasses apprentice doesn't know how to draw the appearance of the left side of the character. Another example is the problem of Shanxia Chinatsu's messy lines.

Shanxia Chinatsu was a little speechless.

Because this was the first time she saw such a person, she had been scolded a lot during her previous internship.

What surprised Chinatsu Yamayama the most was that Higashinoji was not only responsible for the original paintings of their three apprentices, but the entire original painting team had to go to Higashinoji to go over the original drawings. If Higashinoji was really not satisfied, he had to do it again himself.

The most terrifying thing is that the original paintings drawn by Higashinoji are extremely sophisticated, and the characters are extremely vivid. Just the use of lines can make her beat.

But the high quality of the original painting is nothing.

What makes Shanxia Chinatsu find it most incredible is that Higashinoji can draw very fast.

Higashino maintains a high quality level in every original painting, and even takes the time to educate them on how to draw original paintings.

His hands looked like they were not hands. They were like high-precision laser scanning pens. As soon as he scanned them, the original painting was automatically printed on the A4 original paper.

Originally, Chinatsu Yamayama just kept silent, thinking that Higashinoji was fooling around and took the drawing of the original painting for granted. He alone could not guide the three of them at the same time.

But as she continued to paint, Shanxia Chinatsu was shocked to find that they were not the only ones seeking guidance. Even some of the formal original painters from the original studio began to consult Higashinoji with their own original paintings.

The key is that Higashinoji can still handle things in an orderly manner.

She finally understood why Touyesi was called a genius outside.

This kind of painting speed and painting quality, no matter what he does or what wild ideas he comes up with, Chinatsu Yamayama feels that it is natural.

This man was simply born to paint! A true genius!

Similarly, Yano Ryuichi also saw all this in his eyes, and he was vaguely encouraged in his heart, feeling that the originally hopeless production of "The Winner is Justice" could really succeed.

It’s just that the tasks assigned by Tonoji have been a bit too many recently.

The hair seems to be falling out.

Thanks for the reward for accidentally deleting my bank! Thank you so much!
