Chapter 56. How did editor Hosokawa guide Mr. Higashino?
Higashinoji didn't know what was going on outside, and in fact he didn't know what Akisa Kuromiya and the others were thinking.
He just got the data from Koharu Hosokawa that "Midnight Bell" has the highest praise rate among readers," and then he didn't care much about the specific situation on "The Cold".
After all, compared to those, the most important thing he is to work hard to paint his work in the Tokyo Youth Painting Adult Group - "Tokyo".
"It should be fine."
Looking at the finished oil painting in front of him, Higashinoji nodded with satisfaction.
The whole picture is filled with warm white and yellow lights. The pedestrians become exaggerated under the pull of the lights, showing a kind of exaggeration. The entire Tokyo street seemed to be wrapped in a rich and rich atmosphere. The dazzling feeling of glory made everything shaky, but this lively atmosphere was eventually dominated by the image of a down-and-out middle-aged man. The cold and dark blue and black tunes were suppressed. The overly realistic style tear the illusion of luxury and richness in front and the illusion of red and green lights.
The whole portrait was split, but the overall look was so unified.
Contrast, contradiction, irony, unity.
This is what Higashinoji wanted to express, and he did it all.
This painting is his most outstanding work to this world.
It is not ruled out that there will be more outstanding works than it in the future, but this painting is indeed the work that Higashinoji has drawn with all his skills, and it is also the most complete work he has.
Next, just wait for the paint to dry out and send "Tokyo" to the Japan Art Education Association, it will be considered a great success.
"It's almost done." Higashinoji put down his brush and looked at the other girls in the studio.
In the past few days, Ryoko Kawano has not come to "harasse" himself again. After all, his Tokyo Youth Painting Appreciation works have been submitted.
In addition, Ryoko Kawano also has other students who need guidance. Of course, she would not care about students like Higashinoji who are obviously "out of the syllabus".
Even the studio comes and goes freely.
Although it seems loose, the only one Higashinoji has this privilege at present.
Others have no objection.
After all, they also asked Higashinoji a lot of things.
As the saying goes, if people eat soft mouths, they will naturally not say anything.
And the painting "Tokyo" drawn by Higashinoji now... those little girls have also seen it, but they just took a rough look and left.
They think that it is not a work that Higashinoji participates in any case, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.
The days passed in this ordinary time.
then--
In the afternoon, Urajima Publishing House.
"The new reader praise rate has come out! There is also the sales of this issue of "Aversion to Chills".
I don't know if it was the editor who reminded me that Koharu Hosokawa, who was working hard to review the manuscript, raised his head.
She happened to see the editor-in-chief Urajima holding two forms in his hand and walking over from the direction of the service department.
Is this time again?
Hosokawa Koharu was a little embarrassed.
As mentioned earlier, due to the long-term lack of real pillar comics in the weekly magazine "Avoid Chill", coupled with the lack of comic scripts nowadays, "Avoid Chill" has an excellent comic "difference" phenomenon as a whole.
Only the few excellent horror comics "Between the Dolls" obviously cannot support the big plate of the weekly "Aversion to the Cold".
What "Qi" needs is something that can really gain a foothold, like the taibo comics like "Naruto" and "Pirate" in the previous life of Higashinoji!
Therefore, as soon as the phenomenon of dynasty appears, the sales of "Qi" have a slow but steady decline.
So every time when the sales of "Aversion to Chill" were announced, Urajima editor-in-chief always criticized the editors below with both soft and hard work.
Although it is useless, you should still keep the editors below active and not be picked by Fuji Publishing House, which is about to come to the forefront.
No one likes to be criticized, and so does Koharu Hosokawa, but when she thinks about the reader praise rate of "Midnight Bell"...
This made her feel a little excited and waited for the editor-in-chief Urajima to announce the specific data on "The Cold" this week.
"I won't say anything about the scene, let's just go to the topic."
Editor-in-chief Urajima glanced down and then said: "First of all, the reader's praise rate."
Hosokawa Koharu clearly felt that Urashima editor-in-chief looked at him, and then he heard Urashima editor-in-chief announce: "The first reader praise rate is the "Midnight Bell" in charge of Editor Hosokawa."
This time, the editors below made a fuss. They looked at each other, obviously not expecting that this was the result.
"It's simply incredible..." I don't know who said in a low voice.
That's right.
Even the editors below never thought that they would be taken by "Midnight Bell" this time, rather than "Between the Dolls".
Even Koharu Hosokawa is like this.
Although she always felt that Higashinoji had the ability to win, this was too exaggerated.
You should know that the promotion of "Between the Dolls" animation is still underway, and the news about "Between the Dolls" is in the tabloids of major magazines.
"Aversion to Chill" itself is also promoting it.
In addition, "Between the Dolls" has been serialized for a long time for a year and is loved by countless senior readers. It has a fixed vote for some readers.
No matter how good the quality of "Midnight Bell" is, can it be comparable to "Between the Dolls" which has all the resources and fixed tickets from Urajima Publishing House?
And even if the first episode of "Midnight Bell" is excellent, can it still be as good as the first episode?
But the facts gave them a headache. "Midnight Bell" just got a few (first), and squeezed "Between the Dolls" from above.
"You probably haven't watched the second episode of "Midnight Bell" in this episode." Urashima Editor-in-Chief glanced at the editor below: "In fact, as long as you read the second episode, you will feel that this first one is well deserved!"
He spoke sternly and seriously.
Some editors below lowered their heads embarrassedly.
There is no way, the first episode of "Midnight Bell" has caused too much shadow on them, so a considerable number of editors deliberately did not read the content of the second episode of "Midnight Bell".
"Since the editor-in-chief has read it, can you tell us the specific content of the second chapter?"
A responsible editor below asked in a low voice.
"You still want to ask me what the second chapter is? Go and read it yourself! Or ask the editor Hosokawa." Urashima snorted, and in one sentence blocked the editor's back.
All the editors looked at Koharu Hosokawa, mostly with curious and envious eyes.
yes...
How did "Midnight Bell" win the first place...it's simply incredible.
"How did editor Hosokawa train Mr. Higashino, the author of "Midnight Bell"? I'm really a little curious."
Someone next to him asked Hosokawa Koharu curiously.
Then...
Hosokawa Koharu's facial expression became stiff.
Chapter completed!
