Chapter 90 Don't Draw the Same Story
Please recommend!
...
He Chen had a deep impression of Ling Yan. Although he could count it with one hand when he saw it, when Li Youyou mentioned this name, the outsized figure naturally appeared in He Chen's mind.
"Ling Yan has been learning calligraphy and painting from Grandpa Ling since she was a child. I have seen her painting, and she can imitate anyone's painting techniques at will. She also has a very fast painting speed. She is the closest one I have ever met to He Chen." Li Youyou said.
He Chen was surprised. That person was too outrageous. He had only reached this level by cheating.
"You said she is so powerful, why have you never heard of her name?" Ye Jun asked.
"She has never published any works, and she does not draw her own paintings." Li Youyou said.
When everyone heard this, they became even more strange. They had learned calligraphy and painting, but had never published works. They could be said to be disliked to draw; but Li Youyou said that "not drawing your own paintings". What does this mean?
Is it a professional copy?
Sure enough, geniuses are all weirdos.
"Ling Yan... Ling, who is his grandfather?" Ye Jun muttered a few times, suddenly his face changed, and he asked afterwards.
"Ling Qianshan."
"Ling Qianshan!"
Not only Ye Jun was surprised here, but anyone who knew a little about Chinese studies was so surprised that he couldn't stop talking.
"Ling Qianshan? Who?" Only He Chen was confused.
Yi Jingge said contemptuously: "You are still the one who paints, or you are the Department of Art in Yanjing. You are the number one in calligraphy and painting in China. Ling Qianshan, a master of Chinese studies who is hard to find, don't you know that Mr. Ling? I really don't know how you passed the exam. I have to suggest to Yanjing University to cancel your degree qualification!"
He Chen was embarrassed, the art exam tests theory, not Chinese, and he also had to know the detailed introduction of each master. So as a time traveler, he didn't know this person, which was natural.
However, he did not expect that it would cause such a big reaction from everyone. It seems that Ling Qianshan is not only outstanding in strength, but also has a very high status in people's hearts.
"However," Li Youyou looked a little hesitant, "Ling Yan doesn't seem to have much interest in anything. I don't know if she is willing to draw comics. I can only call her. As for whether she can convince her, you have to find a way."
He Chen was very moved. When he first met, He Chen had the urge to pull her into the big pit of comics, but he refused.
Now that Li Youyou said this, He Chen wanted to pull him in more intensely!
"Does she have no hobbies at all?" He Chen asked. If she wanted to convince others, there was no shortcut faster than starting with hobbies.
Li Youyou shook her head: "Our family is a family friend. She and I have known each other since childhood, but I have never found out that she really likes anything. Even calligraphy and painting only made her curious for a while, and she became a master from Grandpa Ling for a few years, and then she stopped painting."
This calligraphy and painting is not a pen calligraphy or graffiti painting. It is completely authentic Chinese studies. Many people may not be able to appreciate it even if they study it for a lifetime. This person actually started from Ling Qianshan in a few years.
If it weren't for Li Youyou's bragging, then I really think there was only one - this girl is a monster!
"I have no interest in anything? How is it possible! Ling Boli likes scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and Nagato's cute god likes to read books. As a human being, how can he have no desires or demands?" He Chen didn't believe it.
"Ling Boli? Isn't this the character in "EVA"? Who is Nagato's cute god?" Zhuang Bufan said in confusion.
He Chen waved his hand: "Well, you heard it wrong."
"By the way, if you want to read books, reading books should be her only interest," said Li Youyou.
"Oh? What kind of books does she like to read?" He Chen raised his spirits and could know a little bit of information from the books he read.
"She reads books without classification, any book, from textbooks to academic books, from novels to game strategies, anyway, as long as it is a book, she will read it." Li Youyou thought for a while and said.
"...Danmei Book, did she read it?" He Chen asked carefully.
"Look." Li Youyou's face turned red, and it seemed that she looked at it a lot.
He Chen shivered, and the spotless fairy in his heart fell to the mortal world.
"...Where is the little yellow book that the boy read?" He Chen asked again.
Li Youyou's face turned redder: "Look."
He Chen looked at Li Youyou weirdly. She wasn't fooling herself? She was still a best friend after all. How could she say such a thing without hesitation? It was because Ling Yan had a grudge against her and deliberately slandered Ling Yan's reputation.
As if afraid of everyone’s misunderstandings, Li Youyou hurriedly explained: “Ling Yan doesn’t like this kind of book, but wants to see what this kind of book is written... Is curiosity, haven’t you read it too!”
Everyone looked elsewhere and said nothing.
Just as Li Youyou said, curiosity is the same, no matter how men and women treat such things, curiosity is the same.
Although she knew her temporary preferences, her preferences were too broad. As long as she wrote a book, Ling Yan had no taboos, which made He Chen embarrassed.
No matter how much you say or think, it is better to have an interview once.
The next day, Li Youyou came with Ling Yan, and this time the only one who met was He Chen. The others began to busy organizing assistants for He Chen's comics.
It was late autumn and both of them were wearing thin sweaters.
Although Li Youyou has always said that she doesn't like the character Asuka, since cosplay, she has been wearing the bright red combat uniform.
Ling Yan is still the same, wearing light-colored clothes, but in late autumn, it gives people the feeling of spring breeze blowing on her face.
"Listen to Youyou, do you want me to be your assistant and draw comics?" After sitting down, Ling Yan asked softly.
He Chen observed her expression and found that there was no trace of unexpected surprise. He felt a little relieved. As long as he didn't refuse directly, everything would be easy to say.
"Well, I have more comics now and I can't handle them by myself, so I hope I can get some assistant. Li Youyou said that you can imitate various styles of painting, and the painting speed is also very fast. Can you let me take a look first?" He Chen did not directly ask for an invitation. After all, it was Li Youyou's unilateral statement. If he didn't try it with his own eyes, He Chen couldn't let it go.
Ling Yan smiled and nodded: "What do you want to see?"
He Chen was delighted. He heard this tone and seemed to have decided to be an assistant.
Leading the two of them to the study, He Chen asked Ling Yan: "Do you know how to use a digital tablet?"
Ling Yan nodded: "I know a little."
He Chen opened the comic page on his computer and opened a page of five books, "EVA", "Pokemon", "Doraemon", and "Conan".
"Change the characters in "EVA" with "Pokemon", replace the characters in "Pokemon" with "Doraemon", replace the characters in "Dirabémon" with "Digimon", replace the characters in "Dirabémon" with "Conan"; replace the characters in "Conan" with "EVA", can it be done?" He Chen looked at Ling Yan.
"Hey! He Chen, I'm looking for an assistant for you, how can you make things difficult for others?" Li Youyou shouted dissatisfied.
This sounds like a difficult task, but it is the most convenient and simple way to test it.
Copying and imitation seem the same, but there are two completely different realms: copying is to draw exactly the same thing, while imitation can draw tigers according to cats - pure literal meaning, you can draw tigers by looking at cats.
If he wanted to be He Chen's assistant, He Chen might provide sketches or even just stories, and to express the story like the original work, then it is impossible to copy it simply - if you don't fully understand the style of the painting and the author's expression, you will have no way of knowing what kind of scenes their characters will perform in the story; you can't restore the pictures you have never seen before.
He Chen looked at Ling Yan expectantly. This was difficult, but if Ling Yan really did it, then He Chen would recruit her at all costs.
"Okay, I'll try it." Ling Yan nodded and sat in front of the computer. Instead of drawing it immediately, she started several comics from scratch and watched for a rough time.
"You guy, if you don't believe me, just say it, why did you ask me to call someone? You even deliberately asked questions to test them!" Li Youyou and He Chen stood together and said angrily.
He Chen looked helpless: "I can't do anything about it. The styles of these comics are too different. If you can't understand them thoroughly, you can't be my assistant. You can only serve as an assistant to a certain style."
Li Youyou snorted softly and stopped talking.
After looking through for a while, Ling Yan finally started writing. Since the backgrounds have layers preserved by He Chen, he just needs to draw the characters.
Five pictures, less than an hour, and this speed surprised He Chen.
Although he was faster, he knew the reason - that was achieved by relying on systematic copying. Moreover, these pictures were temporarily initiated by He Chen. Even if He Chen came to draw, he might not be able to achieve this speed.
With five pictures and five styles, Ling Yan showed them in both form and spirit. If he hadn't watched her talk with his own eyes, He Chen would have thought that these five pictures were drawn by the five cartoonists.
sharp!
He Chen was taken over and then invited Ling Yan: "Would you like to be my assistant and help me draw comics? The rewards are absolutely satisfying..." Maybe he thought it was a bit too vulgar to talk about money, so He Chen added: "Now the Chinese studies are in a low state, and relying on comics can promote Chinese studies!"
What people pursue is nothing more than fame and fortune, but Ling Yan still shook his head for He Chen's generous conditions: "I am not short of money, and I don't have the noble idea to promote Chinese studies - such things have no meaning at all."
"What do you want?" He Chen was puzzled. He thought that he would be interested in such a famous art family, but he thought he was self-righteous.
"It's okay to be your assistant, but I have a condition." Ling Yan stared at He Chen with bright eyes.
"What conditions? Just say whatever you want, as long as I can do it, I can agree to any conditions!"
He has to win over such talents no matter how much the price he spends.
"This condition is not difficult, nor is it simple..."
He Chen was waiting for Ling Yan's conditions. At this time, even if Ling Yan asked for his chastity, He Chen would make contributions without hesitation... By the way, it seems that he is the one who takes advantage of this?
"...I won't draw the same story." Ling Yan smiled and waited for He Chen's reply.
Strange conditions.
In the field of creation, this can be said to be the most difficult, because inspiration is illusory and it is impossible to have a brand new story every moment.
But for He Chen, it is the simplest. As long as he doesn't want to repeat it, it is impossible to repeat it.
"no problem!"
PS: In the Lingbo breeding plan, the goddess likes scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
PSS: Everyone reacts strongly to the name... Actually, I don’t like it very much, it looks awkward, but it may be because of the author’s psychology and I don’t want to have too many loopholes before I modify it.
Since everyone comes for comics, there will be no modifications to the name in the future. Just think that China is completely inclusive and has all the names.
PSSS: It’s time to go to Sanjiang. If you like it, please help vote for Sanjiang. It doesn’t matter whether you compete for the first place or not. As long as it doesn’t have 0 votes, it will be done.
