In the morning.
At the studio.
Zhang Ye, who had slept for two to three hours at home, did not look tired at all. Instead, he felt refreshed. He hummed a tune as he came to work.
"Director Zhang."
"Morning."
"Good morning."
"Director Zhang, you're here?"
Everyone smiled and greeted him.
Zhang Ye smiled. "Are you all busy? Did you manage to contact them? "
Ha Qiqi said, "I'm still working on it. Thanks to Little Sun's relatives who have settled down in Japan, a lot of things here have become much easier and more convenient."
Xiao Sun scratched his head in embarrassment. "It's what I should do, what I should do."
Zhang Ye patted him on the shoulder, "Well done, Little Sun. When the time comes, I might need your relative's help. After all, everyone here knows each other. The media also knows about it. If one of us comes out, we will be exposed. Besides, no one else besides me knows Japanese."
Little Sun immediately said, "That won't be a problem."
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Alright, I'll be troubling you then."
Little Sun hurriedly said, "Director Zhang, you're too polite. Oh yes, your art studio has already been set up."
Little Wang shouted from upstairs, "Director Zhang, it's all done. You can start drawing now."
Zhang Ye said, "What should I start drawing? I've already finished two chapters. "
Little Wang nearly fell down the stairs!
Everyone was dumbfounded!
"Ah?"
"What?"
"Are you done?"
"Two sentences?"
"What the hell!"
"Do you have to be so fast!"
"When it comes to work efficiency, I have to give it to you!"
The gap between people was too big!
Thinking about the other celebrities and their studios, they were all people in the industry and often came into contact with them. But when they chatted in private, they realized that everyone was complaining about this celebrity quitting today, that celebrity did not want to work today, that their new song had been delayed for a month, or that they had a conflict with the film crew and did not want to work anymore. Many of the studios' staff were busy dealing with these matters by the celebrities' side every day, trying their best to persuade them, trying their best to persuade them!
What about their studio?
There was absolutely no such situation!
And it was the complete opposite!
Their subordinates were not even ready yet. They were just warming up when they realized that Director Zhang had already done it! It's over! Got it!
What kind of experience is this?
Those who had never worked at Zhang Ye's Studio before would never be able to imagine this in their entire lifetime!
Ha Qiqi gave a wry smile. "You're too fast!"
Zhang Zuo said in amusement, "Our Director Zhang has such an impatient temper."
Zhang Ye laughed heartily, "That's for sure. Come, come, come. I've already sent the script to your email. Everyone, come and take a look!"
For a moment, everyone gathered around the computer.
"Ah."
"It's really a comic!"
"That's really the case!"
"Wow, Japanese!"
"Director Zhang really understands Japanese!"
Everyone exclaimed in admiration.
Zhang Ye smiled at everyone's reaction and felt extremely satisfied.
A few minutes later, everyone finished reading.
Zhang Ye said in amusement, "What do you think? How do you feel? "
Ha Qiqi said, "This."
Zhang Zuo also stammered, not daring to speak.
Zhang Ye smacked his lips and said, "Don't worry and speak boldly. Tell me what you all think."
Ha Qiqi said first, "About that, I don't really understand comics, and I haven't read many of them either. But it feels a little different. One Piece? Was it appropriate to use this as the main character? Isn't this robbery? If we want to gain popularity in Japan, we have to be more popular, right? But I don't think I've heard of such a genre in the Japanese comics market? Isn't it — well, isn't it a little too niche? "
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "What else?"
Little Wang coughed. "This character design, why does it seem a little —"
Zhang Ye asked, "A little what?"
Little Wang said, "It's a little ugly."
Little Zhou wiped his sweat away. "It's a little hard to accept. This character is too simple."
Little Sun looked at Director Zhang's expression and said, "I've read quite a few comics before. The characteristics and nimbleness of a character are basically reflected in their eyes. B-But why do the eyes of this character that you've drawn look so small? I-Doesn't this mean that he doesn't have any eyes? Will this work? "
Background.
Character design.
Plot.
Everyone started complaining.
"Director Zhang, this won't work, right?"
"Why don't we try another one?"
When Zhang Ye heard that, he smiled and said, "I'm relieved to hear that. Alright, we'll use this. I'll draw a few more chapters over the next two days and send them to Japan!"
Everyone was speechless.
They couldn't understand what Zhang Ye was saying at all!
Only Zhang Ye understood.
Why was he relieved?
Because back in his previous world, when One Piece was first released, everyone had the same evaluation!
Weirdo!
Ugly!
The character design was strange!
Very good, it seemed like both worlds had the same aesthetic standards for comics!
Then it was settled!
One Piece was going to become popular!
Everyone cautiously tried to persuade him a little more, but seeing that there was no effect, they could only give up.
Ha Qiqi asked, "Then what's your pen name?"
Zhang Ye was taken aback. "Yeah, what name should I use?"
Zhang Ye definitely couldn't use this pen name. He couldn't use a name that had a Chinese style either. He couldn't let anyone guess his identity, so he had to come up with a name that was obviously Japanese in order to fish in troubled waters, right?
What should he call it?
The first name that came to Zhang Ye's mind was a famous Japanese person. He blurted out, "Let's call it Aoi."
Aoi?
What kind of name was that?
The studio's staff did not know.
Ha Qiqi said, "Alright, then we'll call it — Aoi?"
As they were talking.
Ring, ring, ring. A call came in.
Zhang Ye answered it. It turned out to be someone from the Asian Charity Association.
It was a Chinese man named Qu Huahua. He was the person in charge there.
"Teacher Zhang."
"Hey, Sister Qu, how are you?"
"We're going to be holding a charity event in Japan next week. We would like to invite you to join us. I wonder if you're free?"
"Japan?"
"That's right."
"What kind of event is it?"
"The Asian Public Service Advertising Awards."
"I'm going to be there?"
"That's for sure."
"Didn't they restrict me from entering the country?"
"It's our charity organization's award ceremony. How dare they!"
"Alright, alright then, I'll go."
"Alright, send me a photo of your passport. I'll help you with the paperwork."
"Sure, thanks."
After hanging up, Zhang Ye informed Ha Qiqi and the others.
Ha Qiqi immediately noted it down. "Alright, I'll follow up on it."
Little Wang blinked and said, "Are you really going to Japan?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Why wouldn't I? We were planning to fight our way out this time anyway, so I definitely want to experience the atmosphere there. It'll be a good opportunity to get a feel for the situation. "
He had just returned from Korea?
He was going to Japan again?
Everyone was feeling a little apprehensive!
Every time Director Zhang stayed at home and did not step out, he would still get into fights with people every day. It was always troublesome, so there was no need to even mention when he went out, much less when he went overseas. Which time did he not cause an earth-shattering mess? So when they heard that Zhang Ye was going overseas again, they were all trembling!
