Tokyo life starting with painting

After reading yesterday's data changes in the manga in his hand, Tonoji slowly put it down.

"This is really, really a bit like Waterloo."

Even though Touyesi was always optimistic, at this time he couldn't help but lower his eyebrows and let out a long sigh.

It does feel a bit like Waterloo.

Yesterday, there were 1,356 actual registered users, and nearly 35 people contributed to the original area. The number of paid users jumped from more than 30 to more than 400.

If you just look at this line of data, some people may be overjoyed and think that this is not a sudden change in situation and everything is getting better?

You must know that on the first day of trial operation, only more than 100 people registered for Dongye Comics, and the investment and return were completely disproportionate.

But if you dig deeper, you'll find it.

This is what Higashino Comics achieved after it was promoted online on Station P.

Although pixiv's current operation status is not the best in Japan, it is also one of the best illustration art virtual community websites in Japan. The number of registered users has already reached more than 500,000.

However, after investing in publicity on this website, more than a thousand people registered in the end.

This is naturally unacceptable.

This achievement is not even a fraction of that of Station P.

This naturally gave Higashino a feeling of Waterloo.

But he can't find the reason for this situation yet.

Higashino Comics website has also received very good reviews from the outside world, and it has also won excellent works from Japan's excellent comic magazines "Heshi" and "Khan".

There are these attractive factors.

But why can’t registered users log in?

Higashinoji was indeed a little confused.

But his career is still on the rise. Although he has to pay some attention to Higashino Comics,

At the same time, Osawa Akiyoshi also received specific data from Higashinoji.

After all, the other party is a partner, and this semi-public data tells Osawa Akichi that there is absolutely no problem.

"How is this going?"

Looking at this row of data, Osawa Akiyoshi was a little unsure of the situation for a while.

You must know that when Dongye Studio started operating the comic website, he was the most confident person next to him.

He believed that his eyes were not wrong, and Higashino Comics must be interesting.

But the actual situation made Osawa Akiyoshi couldn't help but tilt his head - it was too terrible to look at!

It's really terrible.

It even made Osawa Aikichi wonder if Higashinoji had given him false data.

How could Higashino Comics be so good?

Shouldn't it be like Higashinoji's "Naoki Hansawa", where gods kill people, Buddhas kill Buddhas, and there is no one in the whole village who can fight?

impossible!

It must be Higashinoji hiding it.

Osawa Akiyoshi put down the data in his hand and sighed in his heart that Higashinoji's methods were really dirty, and he actually started to play these off-board tricks.

He groaned and called Higashinoji.

He also smiled and told Higashinoji not to worry and to give him the real data to evaluate and evaluate. Since it is a product of your Higashino studio, it must be of excellent quality and well-loved.

Osawa Akiyoshi's words made Higashinoji a little funny.

He is still worried about how to "rebuild the glory of Higashino Studio".

As a result, Osawa Aikichi over there felt that he had given false data, and he became very angry with himself.

This is really an injustice.

Higashinoji also didn't expect Osawa Akiyoshi to have such high confidence and evaluation of himself.

But it’s impossible for Higashinoji to say that he achieved the data that he didn’t achieve, right?

He also smiled and told the other party that these data were real and not fake at all. If Osawa Akiyoshi didn't believe it, he could come to the backstage of Higashino Studio to confirm in person.

Osawa Aikichi naturally sneered at these words, feeling that Higashinoji was simply making fun of him.

Of course it was impossible for him to go to Higashino Studio to verify.

After all, data can really be modified by the staff of Higashino Studio with just a few clicks of their fingers.

In fact, if he has passed, it is as if he has not passed.

So Osawa Akiyoshi and Higashinoji laughed and discussed for a while before hanging up the phone.

In response to this, Higashinoji also shook his head, really dumbfounded.

It's obvious that he has suffered a misfortune, but Osawa Akiyoshi outside still feels that he is mixed with private goods.

never mind.

There is no use explaining this.

Let’s just focus on developing Higashino Comics.

He can be considered serious about the website Dongye Comics - I really don't believe that this website can't be launched.

Higashinoji made up his mind here, while Nakano Arisaki on the other side swelled for a whole day and finally recognized the reality.

Can't draw it!

I can't draw any decent works at all!

It's like the hands can't keep up with the brain, and the brain can't keep up with the hands.

She clearly thought so in her mind, but what she drew on her hand was another look.

This is wrong!

Nakano Arisa was really dizzy and her eyes were black.

She finally improved her painting skills and thought she could show off her skills. However, before she could show off her 'peerless martial arts', she was slapped to the ground by the cold reality.

This made Nakano Arisaki pull her hair dozens of times, feeling that her hair was about to fall out.

It wasn't until noon the next day that Nakano Arisa gave up thinking. With heavy dark circles under his eyes, he came to Higashinoji with an empty manga manuscript paper.

To be honest, the moment he saw Nakano Arisaki, Tonoji was stunned.

When he looked at this guy yesterday, he also found that he was full of energy, with a healthy blush on his wheat-colored cheeks.

But when I look at it now, Nakano Arisa's hair is messy, her cheeks are pale, and her big, bright and simple eyes have suddenly lost their focus.

Shanxia Chinatsu couldn't help but glance at Higashinoji and Nakano Arisaki.

Could it be that something happened between Higashino-sensei and Nakano Arisaki?

And it’s the kind of unspoken thing that cannot be described?

This is not just a random guess on her part, but from time to time Nakano Arisaki would mention the time when she met Higashinoji and asked for 'physical repayment'.

Is it possible that this guy really "succeeded" with his body?

Shanxia Qianxia was thinking wildly and could only look at the two people secretly.

Of course Higashinoji doesn't care what Shanxia Chinatsu is thinking.

He just looked at the empty manuscript paper, and then looked at Nakano Arisaki's appearance.

Then he showed a surprised expression.

"You don't know what to draw, do you?"

"Um"

"I remember yesterday, didn't you say you were going to paint something that would surprise me?"

Higashinoji teased.

"Uh, that's what I said. It's just... uh."

Nakano Arisa blushed when he heard Higashinoji's words and stammered, unable to answer.

She has always been cheerful, but she can no longer be cheerful at this time.

After all, Higashikata's words really touched her sore spot.

Seeing Touyesi still looking at her and smiling.

Nakano Arisa was a little annoyed: "I-I'll go back and paint again! I'll definitely surprise you!"

Seeing her look like this, Higashino waved his hands and finally stopped teasing this guy. At the same time, he smiled and started asking her what difficulties she encountered.

Nakano Arisaki was also afraid of being ridiculed by Higashinoji again, so he immediately spoke out about the difficulties he encountered.

There are actually not many difficulties for beginners in drawing comics.

The main reason is that the scene in my mind is not consistent with the scene drawn by my hand, or I simply cannot think of a suitable scene.

This is because pure imagination and plot construction are insufficient.

And the method of handling it is quite simple.

Touyesi groaned, and without much hesitation, he started writing on the white paper next to him.

The appearance of writing vigorously and quickly attracted the attention of Qianxia Shanxia next to him.

What are you doing?

Aren't you still talking about comics?

The two little girls were attracted and looked at Higashinoji writing, and finally stopped——

"Take a look."

Tonoji tore off the manuscript he had just written and handed it to Nakano Arisaki.

This made Nakano Arisaki couldn't help but glance at the manuscript in his hand.

"The Grudge.?"

Shanxia Qianxia muttered, glanced twice and then looked over.

To be honest, Higashinoji's writing style is not very good. Many places are just ordinary white-drawn sentences without any modifications.

But ordinary line drawings cannot stop the horror of "The Grudge".

A spooky Japanese-style house.

The life-threatening resentful spirit Gaya Coconut.

Not only was the fear not diminished by Higashinoji's ordinary white lines, but it became even more intense.

Fortunately, Higashinoji didn't draw "The Grudge" into a manga, otherwise Chinatsu Yamayama wouldn't be confident that he wouldn't be frightened to death.

"Teacher Higashino, there should be a sequel to "The Grudge", right?"

"Well, of course there will be a follow-up." Higashinoji replied.

".Yeah?"

Shanxia Qianxia was really shocked.

As the original animator of Higashino Studio, she is certainly very discerning and can see the potential of "The Grudge" at a glance.

Not to mention that it is comparable to Higashinoji's "The Ring", but it is also a work with a very excellent plot.

And this is just such a work.

Did she just watch Higashiyoshi write it out so casually?

Mountain Chinatsu scratched her scalp.

At this time, she would always subconsciously feel that she was far from the world of genius.

She sighed a little.

Qianxia on the mountain sighed.

Higashinoji didn't care what she thought, but looked at Nakano Arisaki: "Nakano, use this short manuscript as material and draw a comic for me."

Yes.

This is the most important reason why Higashino released "The Grudge".

"The Grudge" is a Japanese horror movie composed of various short stories and montage shooting techniques.

It was once hailed as a Japanese horror movie alongside "The Ring".

You must know that "The Ring" is the pinnacle of Japanese horror movies.

"The Grudge" can receive this evaluation is no small feat.

Similarly, the number of filming and remakes of "The Grudge" is actually not inferior to that of "The Ring".

Higashinoji vaguely remembers that he filmed a lot at that time, including a miscellaneous ten-year commemorative version, OV version, video version, and theatrical version. This can be regarded as a Japanese tradition.

Anything that makes money can be remade.

There are only a few true classics.

But despite this, "The Grudge" can be regarded as one of the peaks of Japanese horror movies.

There is often a saying that goes like this.

When it comes to Japanese horror movies, you have to mention "The Ring", and when it comes to "The Ring", many people naturally think of "The Grudge".

In addition, its unique short stories form clues to advance the plot in the form of a unit drama.

It's just right for newcomers like Nakano Arisa to practice with.

"Let me practice?"

Nakano Arisa looked at the manuscript of "The Grudge" and was a little curious.

"Yes, in fact, the problem you encounter is simply a lack of imagination, and this lack of imagination can be made up for by written descriptions."

Higashikata nodded.

Just like when you read a novel, you can imagine the appropriate scene and the appropriate character tone in your mind based on the text.

Higashinoji's approach is actually similar to that of novels, using textual impressions to enhance Nakano Arisa's imagination.

This way she shouldn't have much of a problem drawing it.

Higashinoji is not afraid of Arisa Nakano sneaking away with the manuscript of "The Grudge"

After all, this is just a small fragment, what else can she do with it?

In addition, Higashinoji is not very good at writing this stuff, so what he wrote probably didn’t even replicate half of the spooky horror of the original work.

So he was even less worried.

"I see!"

Nakano Arisa looked at the manuscript of "The Grudge" at hand, regained confidence, and patted his chest vigorously: "I will definitely work hard. Mr. Higashino!"

She turned back and began to draw.

This energetic look made Touyoshi envious.

Just now he looked like he was going to stay up all night, but in the blink of an eye he cheered up.

Should I be called a young man?

Tonoji didn't dampen her enthusiasm. He just told her to pay attention to her health, then turned her attention back to her work.

Although Higashino Comics suffered a misfortune, he still has to do the work that needs to be done.

But you can't give up just because of a temporary failure.

at the same time.

North gyijuku high school.

Yumi Takahashi, who was engrossed in eating, suddenly looked up: "I heard that Mr. Higashino seems to have created a website for Higashino comics recently. It seems that there has been some discussion among the inner circle of comics recently."

"Asi?"

Chihaya Higashino, who had not forgotten to put down her English entries while eating, finally raised her head.

She has such a personality. Once she hears about Higashinoji's affairs, she is easily attracted to her.

"Yes! I read it too! That website is really amazing. It also supports English and Chinese. Teacher Higashino is really amazing."

Yumi Takahashi said and gestured: "You can even see the latest serialization of the manga, and the VIP payment price is also quite cheap."

As she spoke, her mood became high.

This look made Fujiwara Aoi on the side couldn't help but reach out and pat her head, scolding: "You bastard! Do you really don't want to go to college?! Didn't you agree to read a book when you get home?"

"Reading comic books is also reading books!"

After being beaten suddenly, Takahashi Yumi felt a little aggrieved, but she was still unforgiving and muttered in a low voice: "And that comic website is really popular among the inner circle."

She swears by the fried chicken in her lunch box!

Higashinoji’s manga website will definitely become a huge hit!

Thanks to DaemonLorde, Fifty-One Stone, and Mr. Slow Life for the rewards! Thank you so much!
