"Is it really going to be used?"

"I have decided to open a comic studio, what do you think?"

"It's pretty good. Such a large garden is half empty. One is a waste, and the other is a little deserted."

"You will have more work in the future."

"That's not a problem, leave it to me."

"I think, why don't you find a helper?"

"No, no, I'll do it alone."

"Uncle, let's find someone again. It's too hard for you to be alone. After the studio is opened, you have to be on duty during the day, and then the children come to the evening and they can't stay idle."

Old Li was stunned for a long time. Zhang Tan had never called him uncle.

I often shouted like this when I was a child, and as I grew older, I slowly went to nothing.

He was moved, and after a moment of pause, he took the lead and said, "Okay, let's follow yours."

Zhang sighed: "Do you have any people who recommend it? It's best if you are from our village, and everyone knows it well."

Lao Li said he would think about it and remember it.

Zhang Tan took out the key and opened another three-story red brick building in Hexiao Hongma Academy. A smell of musty smell came to his nose, and the choking flying dust was sucked into his nose. Zhang Tan sneezes twice.

He and Lao Li quickly took a few steps back and waited for nearly a minute before entering the house.

Lao Li said: "It's been useless for too long. This building will only be cleaned once a month. It rains often during this period and the sun is rare, so the musty smell is so severe."

It was pitch black in the room. Zhang Tan turned on his phone and used the flashlight function to find the light source switch.

Da ~~

Da da ~~

The switch was pressed, but the light bulb couldn't light up.

"The lamp seems to be broken." Zhang Tan said.

After trying it a few times, I decided that it was not the light bulb that was broken, but where the wire was broken.

"Come again during the day, it's not easy to do now."

The two left, and Zhang Tan looked up at the building. The structure and style were exactly the same as the one they were already using. If they didn't use it, they might turn into a haunted house.

The next day, Zhang Tan found a decoration company and spent three days to make the inside look fresh. Of course, this is not enough, as well as decoration, buying furniture, etc.

Zhang Tan didn't have so much time to mess with these things, but fortunately Xin Xiaoguang took the initiative to take on these jobs. He and two other comics were busy and spent another three days to finally sort out the building.

The office has been organized, and the studio Zhang Tan is also registered and established. The name is Xiaohongma Comic Studio. The logo is the same as the late night school logo, a galloping little red horse.

"This place is really a good place. Next to it is West Chang'an Street, which is hidden in the city."

"I never thought that there would be such a place on West Chang'an Street. How could such a good place be left in this area? Aren't the developers rushing to collect it?"

...

On this day, all the staff of the studio were in place. Many people came in for the first time and looked around curiously.

"Late Night Academy? Is it next to it? What's the matter?"

“Is there another kindergarten?”

Zhang Tan clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, let's just calm down. Let me introduce it to you first. Here is West Chang'an Street next to us. CBD and bar are nearby, which is very convenient, but you have also seen it. This is a late-night academy."

"What is a late-night school? It is a school that is only open at night, not a kindergarten, but a family that has to go to work at night and has no one to take care of the children at home. Basically, the children will come after you get off work, and it just happened to be in a staggered way."

"But no matter whether it is staggered or not, I will make three rules..."

Three rules, in short, are that they cannot disturb the children here.

There are 8 people in the studio. I held a small meeting on the first day of work to confirm the recent work.

The most important thing at present is to launch "Dream Searching for Travel".

Because there are not many people, it is the first time, so we worked together to create this comic first, and after familiarizing ourselves with each other, Zhang Tan also gained some understanding of everyone's abilities, and then see if we can start multiple projects at the same time.

Zhang Tan would not stare here every day, so the daily operation of the studio was handed over to Xin Xiaoguang.

Zhang Tan knew that the studio was still very incomplete and there was still a lot to do, but the most urgent task was to make the studio run first and improve it while doing it.

Only by doing it can you know where there are problems and how to change them.

"Boss, we have some ideas in "Dream Search and Travels". Xin Xiaoguang found Zhang Tan.

"OK."

Zhang Tan called everyone together and talked about his thoughts on this "creditative work".

Everyone talks and everyone has a lot of ideas.

At the beginning, Zhang Tan attracted everyone's franchise with the script of this comic, so everyone had been studying this work for a long time, and their ideas were about to overflow.

"I think the worldview in the story should be based on Chinese civilization, and tell stories while promoting Chinese culture, so that everyone can feel more immersive."

The person who spoke was a beautiful female cartoonist named Wu Shiying.

Without Zhang Tan's questioning, someone asked what he wanted to ask: "Then do you want to use the July Half Ghost Festival as the starting point?"

Wu Shiying's eyes lit up and nodded, "That's right, on July 3, Ghost Festival, the Ghost Gate is wide open, relatives, sacrifices, memories, nostalgia, love... all the elements needed in the story can be found in this traditional festival, which is very touching."

She looked at Zhang Tan with a bright look, waiting for his statement.

Wu Shiying's resume immediately appeared in Zhang Tan's mind. She was a well-known cartoonist. She has serialized two works and is in the rising stage of her career.

Her style of paintings includes both the delicateness and tenderness of women and the imagination of imagination. Even in the second work, Zhang Tan saw some horror elements and styles.

The reason why Wu Shiying was willing to give up her rising personal career and joined Zhang Tan's studio was of course not because he was handsome, but because the comics Zhang Tan wanted to make were completely different from most of the ones on the market, but they were the kind of comics she wanted to draw but had no inspiration.

"Dream Searching" is very different from the popular comics on the market. Not only are the styles different, but the stories are also different.

The difference between them is like "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and "Fighting Po".

The comics on the market are similar to popular online articles, and they pursue the ultimate pleasure, quick slap in the face and reverse.

Their selling point is that they are cool.

However, "Dream Search" does not have a slap in the face, which is completely inconsistent with the needs of a happy plot.

In Wu Shiying's view, emotional catharsis is the essence of a comic story, and it is what the author should pursue, including happiness, sadness, love, hatred, letting go, etc.

It would be too narrow to just pick out one "satisfactory".

The core selling point of "Dream Searching for a Journey" is emotional catharsis. Its theme is not "cool", but love, memory and cherishment.

This is what impressed Wu Shiying the most, and it is also the biggest motivation for her to decide to work with Zhang Tan.

Now, she is concerned about another question, can Zhang Tan listen to her suggestions?

In her eyes, Zhang sighed and said, "Your proposal is good. I agree in principle, but you need to talk about your ideas in detail, because you also know that if the background world changes, many other contents will also need to be changed."

Wu Shiying smiled happily and said, "Okay, then I'll take up more than ten minutes for everyone to talk about my thoughts."
