Before the Annual Meeting

　　After the winter vacation, Chu Yu finally realized what it means to be relaxed.

　　No longer have to create comics every night until late at night.

　　The comic work that could be completed in the past week, with the collaboration of him and Zhao Qinyin, both of them completed this week's work only on Wednesday. This was amazed even after Su Lu knew about it.

　　Originally, Zhao Qinyin was already among the fastest manga drawing speeds among manga creators.

　　But compared with Chu Yu, her speed still pales in comparison.

　　After all, when he was bound to the system, the system strengthened him in comic drawing skills and speed.

　　So in just five days, two people finished the manuscript of the new story without working overtime at night.

　　Su Lu looked at the manuscript of the eleventh chapter of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance that Chu Yugang submitted to her, and she suddenly felt that her editor seemed to be a mess.

　　She couldn't talk about the plot, and the work didn't need her to remind the manuscript. The comic film deadline was Sunday, and this guy had been drawn on Friday before.

　　Now it's okay. As soon as the two of them leave the holiday, they simply finished drawing the manuscript on Wednesday.

　　Su Lu has been in this industry for so many years. It is not that he has never seen a high-yielding sow cartoonist, but he is the only one who can reach the level of the combination of Chu Yu and Zhao Qinyin.

　　If two people don't go to class without their studies, work during the day and add a few extra classes at night, two cartoons in Zhou's change will not be a dream!

　　Of course, the premise is that Chu Yu can withstand such a high-intensity plot creation. After all, the Rurouni Jianxin Remembrance story has not collapsed until now, not only the plot has not collapsed, but the foreshadowing is one link and one link. If you want to achieve such an effect, absolutely It is only when the whole work has been conceived and completed at the first stroke of writing.

　　I don't know how long it took Chu Yu to polish the plot of this work in his heart.

　　But Su Lu guessed that this time is definitely not low.

　　"Huh!" Chu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief. He is also a salted fish. After completing the task this week, he also wants to rest.

　　It's a holiday!

　　What's the point if you concentrate on drawing comics.

　　Moreover, Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance has been serialized to the eighth chapter in the comics, and what he handed to Su Lu today is the manuscript of the eleventh chapter.

　　According to the progress, there are only four episodes, the work will be over, and it will only be less than two months before its publication on the comics ends.

　　In comparison, Chu Yu didn't feel any tension.

　　"Then, don't I need to come over in the next few days?" Zhao Qinyin asked after learning about Chu Yu's work schedule.

　　"Well, for the remaining few days of this week, we will rest before that year!" Chu Yu nodded.

　　"It was the winter vacation period. I would not be embarrassed to keep you working here. After all, the Chinese New Year will be in less than two weeks."

　　"Of course, we can also work harder during this time. At the pace of this week, maybe we can draw the four-part plot of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance in the fourth section of the cross wound a year ago. In this case, this work will also It's over, everyone can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind during the Spring Festival..."

　　"End...End..."

　　As soon as Chu Yu spoke, Su Lu and Zhao Qinyin were both stunned.

　　Both of them have been paying attention to the performance and drawing of this work before, and they found out when Chu Yu first talked about this issue.

　　It turns out that this work has reached this time period.

　　Even if Chu Yu and Zhao Qinyin are not in the holiday and have a lot of time to draw comics, according to the previous rhythm, this work will be completed in one month and published within two months.

　　"Time... flies so fast..."

　　"Then after this work is over...Chu Yu, what are you going to do? This work is called Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, right?

Memories...that is, there are other chapters! Are you going to... serialize other chapters of this work? "Zhao Qinyin looked at Chu Yu.　　Including Su Lu, she also wants to know this question.

　　Other chapters?

　　"Other chapters, to be honest...I don't have a clue at all right now."

　　Chu Yu said helplessly.

　　Of course he knows that the memory of Remembrance only occupies a small part of Rurouni Kenshin, but the complete original work is systematically judged to be A-level works. Even if he wants to bet on luck, he cannot be drawn by the B-level lottery chance in his hand. Grade A works.

　　But relying on world points to redeem, he now relies on the number of world points obtained in the Remembrance chapter, which is far from redeeming all chapters of Rurouni Kenshin.

　　"Moreover, next semester is the last semester of high school. The college entrance examination is coming in June. My grades are not the same as Zhao Qinyin's. It's too salty. If you don't work hard, I guess I wouldn't expect to get a third-rate university."

　　"How can I think about it so much now? The work is not over yet, and if the popular vote is the number one this week, isn't there a Dragon Star Award during the Chinese New Year?"

　　"You can only go one step at a time."

　　Chu Yu's words were ambiguous, Su Lu and Zhao Qinyin both lowered their heads when they heard the words, not knowing what they were thinking.

　　"Hey, hey, why don't you guys speak anymore!"

　　The two remained silent.

　　"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this issue!" Chu Yu shook his head.

　　"Sister Su, didn't you talk about it before? This Saturday, our comics club will have an annual meeting, and Zhao Qinyin and I were asked to buy a suit and gown to attend the meeting. Anyway, this week's work has also been completed, and the three of us are just right. It's all here, I think... it's better to go now!"

　　Chu Yu's words immediately attracted the attention of Su Lu and Zhao Qinyin.

　　Girls, talking about shopping, especially on the topic of dress, even Zhao Qinyin was attracted.

　　"Then, go now?"

　　"also!"

　　....

　　In a commercial building in the center of Ming City.

　　"Hello sir, are you satisfied with this suit?"

　　The shopping guide on the side saw Chu Yu walking out of the fitting room and walked up with a smile.

　　"is acceptable!"

　　Chu Yu looked in the mirror, wearing leather shoes in the mirror. He did seem to be quite mature in the suit, but he seemed weird. After all, he had never been dressed in a similar style before.

　　In the ladies' fitting room not far away, Zhao Qinyin and Su Lu came out together.

　　Zhao Qinyin put on a red skirt at this time, his shoulders and arms were exposed, and he stepped on a pair of moderately high heels.

　　The hair is drooping, the eyes seem to be panicked, and there is a hint of redness on the cheeks, which seems a little embarrassing.

　　Although I didn't feel anything when watching those hosts wearing similar clothes on TV, she really felt how embarrassed after she changed such clothes herself.

　　Not only is it unaccustomed to wearing high heels, but there are too many exposed places in this skirt. It is completely incomparable with some of the casual clothes and ankle-length skirts she wears on weekdays and weekends.

　　As for Su Lu next to her, she put on some black dresses, slender waist, white and straight calf, the whole person looks beautiful and confident. After all, he has been working hard in the workplace for several years, and Zhao Qin Yin's little girls have a different mentality.

　　For a while, the two attracted the attention of many other men and women who were shopping for clothes.

　　At the end of the year, the company holding the annual meeting is not only Cuttlefish, so there are many people in the store who have the same purpose as Chu Yu and others, especially the men, who frequently look at Su Lu and Zhao Qinyin.

　　This made Zhao Qinyin even more uncomfortable.

　　"Yeah! Chu Yu, it's not bad!"

　　Su Lu's eyes lit up when he saw Chu Yu's suit dress.

　　"You, it used to be jeans, T-shirts, or school uniforms. It's not so obvious. Now that you change your clothes, you still look handsome."

　　Su Lu's voice made De Chuyu suddenly come back to his senses.

　　Only then did he realize that he was slightly stunned when he saw the costumes of the two of them just now.

　　However, Chu Yu immediately responded, "I know if you don't talk about this kind of thing. Also, next time you'll be complimented by removing the word a bit and just say handsome."

　　Really arrogant.

　　Su Lu curled his lips.

　　"How is it, do you think it's okay, clothes?" Chu Yu looked at the two of them.

　　"I don't think it is a problem, that's it."

　　Although Su Lu had several sets of banquet dresses in her family, she was still planning to buy a new set for the annual meeting by herself. After all, women's clothes would always be short of one.

　　"It seems, it's a bit too revealing..." Zhao Qinyin's voice was much lower.

　　"This kind of clothes is not all like this, but you are not used to paying attention to those places all the time. You will see it last year on Saturday, and you will feel how conservative you dress compared to other women in the conference. He shook his head and said to Zhao Qin.

　　"Then...Okay..." Zhao Qinyin whispered.

　　She has only heard of the annual meeting of the Cuttlefish Comics Club since she embarked on the road of comics, and she has never been to it.

　　Compared with the excitement and anticipation brought by attending such a meeting, she can bear it just in such unaccustomed clothing.

　　The two who made the decision went back to the fitting room again to change their clothes.

　　After all, there is heavy snow outside the mall, it is impossible to go out wearing such a skirt.

　　However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Yu went to the cashier.

　　"How much do their shoes, skirts, and my suit and shoes cost?"

　　"Sir, do you want to check out together?" The cashier woman smiled.

　　"Ok!"

　　Soon, the woman had an operation on the computer, and the final summed up numbers made Chu Yu's heart beat.

　　So expensive...

　　I can catch up with...I...

　　I have spent more than half a week on the manuscript fee.

　　When Chu Yu saw the data, his first reaction was to measure his living expenses in the previous month.

　　But later I felt very uncomfortable, because after a rough calculation, I felt that the unit of month could be a full twelve into one, and it became a year.

　　So immediately changed to measuring by one's own weekly manuscript fee.

　　All of a sudden, I felt at ease in my heart.

　　If Chu Yu didn't go out today and stayed at home to draw comics, the price of the completed manuscript would be equal to the price of two sets of his clothes.

　　The mentality immediately changed.

　　After Zhao Qinyin and Su Lu came out, Chu Yu not only settled the bill, but also put on his thick down jacket and was ready to go home.

　　"You settled the bill?"

　　Su Lu and Zhao Qinyin looked at each other.

　　Yes, they know that Chu Yu has a high income now, but La Chuyu is not ready to take advantage of him.

　　"I'll transfer the account to you..." Zhao Qinyin took out his mobile phone while talking.

　　"Forget it!" Chu Yu waved his hand.

　　"After all, everyone worked together to make this work of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance achieve the current results. I have always wanted to find an opportunity to thank you..."

　　"The gift I gave you last Christmas Eve also had this meaning, but it seems that Sister Su doesn't like the scale very much. This time you chose it yourself. You will treat it as my thanks to you again... ..... There is no need to transfer the money, and I will not collect it."

　　"But, I like the manga tools you gave me very much...Sister Su's, I'll pay for it myself..."

　　"Okay, okay, let's go, that's it!" Chu Yu knew that he reasoned with Zhao Qinyin, but he said that he was not a clever girl with clear logic.

　　He walked towards the door of the store with his clothes bag alone.

　　Finally, I wanted to give someone a gift. It would be too embarrassing if Zhao Qinyin didn't accept it, so she simply wouldn't give her this opportunity.

　　Su Lu grabbed Zhao Qinyin who still wanted to say something, and shook his head.

　　"Forget it, he gave the gift for two reasons of thanking us for helping with his work, needless to say..."

　　"It's really so clear, but it's not good. If you feel embarrassed, you might as well put more effort into finishing the work of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, so that it is true without leaving any regrets." Su Lu said.

　　For Su Lu, people who she thinks are okay to give her gifts, she never refuses to come. It is great to find opportunities to return gifts in the future, not like Zhao Qinyin, who has less social experience.

　　"What's the matter? Why are you still struggling with that kind of thing? Go away quickly!" Chu Yu stood at the door, looking at the two of them speechlessly.

　　"Okay, here comes..." Su Lu quickly stepped forward.

　　Zhao Qinyin hesitated, but followed suit.

　　....

　　Neither Su Lu nor Zhao Qinyin came to Chu Yu's house for the next two days.

　　After all, the manuscript of this week's manga, Chu Yu, has been submitted, and even though Chu Yu asked Zhao Qinyin if he wanted to work overtime the two years ago to finish the work completely.

　　But the answer Zhao Qinyin finally gave him was only that she was approaching the Chinese New Year and things were very busy. She could easily complete the assistant job with one word a week, but two words a week might be more difficult...

　　Since Zhao Qinyin said so, Chu Yu didn't say anything.

　　For him, it makes no difference whether the comics are drawn in two weeks or in one month.

　　...

　　New Year's Eve in a few days, and the chill of the entire Los Angeles province can not extinguish the enthusiasm in everyone's hearts. Children and old people on the street braved the heavy snow and cold wind to take to the streets.

　　Various food stalls can also be allowed to be set up in the city during this time.

　　Many elementary and middle school students also have New Year's Eve money, and they are not stingy in spending money when buying their favorite comics and magazines.

　　The three major comic clubs in Los Angeles, Fengyu, Cuttlefish, and Longya's periodicals have all achieved an increase in their orders.

　　Although Cuttlefish Comics was surprised that Luo Cheng, a large distributor under its umbrella, had nearly 30,000 more orders in this issue than usual, but it only thought it was caused by the increase in sales caused by the New Year. Although... ...The increase is a bit staggering.

　　The arrival of Friday also heralded the release of Chapter 9 of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance.

　　For a time, in the major bookstores in Los Angeles, the sales speed of Man Ying's periodical was significantly lower than that of Tianyin and Fire Dragon, which are the three major journals in Los Angeles.

　　Nowadays, Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance has become the most frequently heard work of comic fans in Los Angeles.

　　In comparison, after Dong Yun left on Tianyin, Zhong Ning's star realm dominated his family, and the two popular works on Fire Dragon alternately reached the top.

　　There is now a super three-strong situation on the comic.

　　Although Dong Yun's secret girl suppressed Shen Xin's magical realm, UU read www.uukanshu. com, but the advantages are not obvious, and Mojing and Tianshu are still works of the same level.

　　There is only Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance. Last week's popularity survey was the only one on the ink film. Not only was the popularity vote the only work on the comic that exceeded 40,000, but it also surpassed Dong Yun's secret girl by as much as 10,000 votes.

　　Regardless of the tens of thousands of votes, most of the fans are diving parties. Even if they like this work in their hearts, they may not be willing to vote for their favorite work on the Internet. This is a matter of personal habits.

　　If there are tens of thousands of popular votes, the actual number of followers of the work may be more than ten times.

　　Obviously, any popular vote rankings are all imaginary, and the number of supporters is the root of comic authors.

　　Man Ying's fifth place has only 10,000 voters, but it is only a gap with the fourth place Tianshu. The actual number of fans is more than two grades behind.

　　The results of the popularity polls of Man Ying in the past two weeks have told the entire Los Angeles comic industry. Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance is not only unique in Man Ying, but even if it is placed in the entire Los Angeles comic industry. His popularity is unique in the two periodicals of Tianyin and Fire Dragon.

　　It's hard to believe that this work was actually painted by a newcomer.

　　Shui Xin, a cartoonist who turned out to be born at the end of this year, the outside world still doesn't know whether this person is a man or a woman, whether he is young or old... just such a person is about to enter the comics industry in Los Angeles. The pinnacle.

　　At this annual meeting of the Cuttlefish Comics Club, it is said that Shui Xin, who is now stirring up the comic industry in Los Angeles, will also attend.

　　However, many people in the comics industry outside are looking forward to tomorrow's Cuttlefish Annual Meeting.
