MTL - Manga Guidebook-Chapter 71 1st Assistant

"Hmm... I need to meet. After all, it's just too broad. If possible, Xia Qing, can you help me ask if he has time to meet tomorrow?"

Chen Zijun said.

"I'll call him now."

"Hey? Now? It's already eight o'clock in the evening. Does it really matter if you call out so late?"

"Let me ask his opinion." After speaking, Zhong Xiaqing picked up the phone and started to fight.

"Is that Du Mingyuan? I'm Zhong Xiaqing, so I have a part-time job..."

After the phone call, Zhong Xiaqing said, "He said he could be here in half an hour."

"sorry to bother you."

Zhong Xiaqing smiled: "It doesn't matter."

After more than half an hour, a sturdy young boy walked over, no, it can't be said to be sturdy, it is simply too sturdy, tall, but still wearing dirty work clothes.

"Hello, my name is Du Mingyuan, I'm nineteen years old, you are Chen Zijun, I'm very sorry, I just came from the part-time job site, and I didn't have time to change my clothes, so I can only meet you like this."

Chen Zijun smiled and said, "It's alright, please take a seat."

"I'm going to pour tea for the two of you." Zhong Xiaqing walked into the kitchen thoughtfully, leaving it for the two of them to talk about things.

"I heard from Zhong Xiaqing that you are looking for a comic assistant. Let me introduce myself now. I have studied painting for seven years since I was a child, and I am good at sketching. Although I have never worked as a comic assistant, please give me some time. I can definitely do it." Du Mingyuan's voice was a little hurried.

"Senior Du Mingyuan..."

"You can call me by my name. After all, I am also looking for a job with you." Du Mingyuan laughed.

"Then I'm welcome. What direction are you good at painting, is it just a simple sketch?"

Chen Zijun asked this because he wanted to know what direction he was good at.

"Well... although it's sketching, my specialty is house design. My grandfather used to be an architectural designer and was influenced by him since he was a child. He is good at this, ah, yes, this is something I drew before , I have taken photos and saved them in my phone, you can take a look."

Chen Zijun took over his mobile phone after hearing that. There were some city pictures on it, black and white, and the drawings were very detailed. It could be seen that he had rich experience. In fact, in terms of time, the other party took a lot longer to learn painting than Chen Zijun. Chen Zijun has been working for half a year, otherwise the blessing of the system is basically impossible.

"Here." Zhong Xiaqing brought two cups of hot tea in front of them: "I'll go back to the house first, you can talk about it yourself."

"Thank you." Du Mingyuan thanked him, then looked at Chen Zijun, who was looking at the picture carefully. After a while, he hesitated and asked, "I don't know if it is possible."

"That's alright, the level is probably enough." Chen Zijun smiled: "The task I asked for is not a difficult job, I just want to entrust you to help me draw the background of each page of the comic, as long as you are proficient, you will surely Completely capable."

"So you agree?"

"Of course." Chen Zijun smiled. According to the quality of the pictures on the mobile phone, it is more than enough. Chen Zijun himself can't handle that kind of old hand. The price is too expensive, Chen Zijun can't afford it, like Du Mingyuan On the contrary, it is more suitable for him now.

"The work is done on a page-by-page basis, and a page is about 20 yuan. This price is indeed lower than the market, but you also know that I am not a full-time cartoonist, and the monthly salary is also limited, but the cost of food and Transportation is included."

Cartoon assistants generally have full-time monthly payment, and there is this kind of page-by-page payment. Different people use it differently. It depends on oneself. Chen Zijun uses page-by-page payment.

"I know." Du Mingyuan expressed his understanding.

"That's good." Chen Zijun breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that his price was too low. To be honest, it was quite low. If you use an analogy, then Chen Zijun is simply a black-hearted boss of capitalism, but Chen Zijun also has last resort.

If he insisted on 30 pages per week for a month, it would be more than 10,000 yuan, but the problem cannot be said simply. The average cartoonist hovers between 18 and 24 pages a week. , Chen Zijun used to have 30 pages of manuscripts per week before he dared to do this, and the manuscripts were lost by himself... ahem, after running out, it was almost gone, and 20 pages a month was a bit reluctant, plus The cost of going to the comic assistant, transportation, daily life, etc., can be said to be not as rich as imagined. If the price given is too high, Chen Zijun might as well hire a professional and experienced comic assistant.

Besides, Du Mingyuan himself is not a professional comic assistant, and his level is still unknown, so Chen Zijun can only offer this price. If he is capable, he will increase the cost appropriately.

"Do you want to start today?" Du Mingyuan asked ~www.novelbuddy.com~ No need, tomorrow afternoon at 6 o'clock, please be here on time at 6 o'clock. "

"There's one more thing I need to tell you, teacher." Du Mingyuan was a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "Although my words are not very good, but may I ask you to make an appointment with me for two thousand yuan first, I will I really need the money, and I'll pay it back after finishing the work."

"Can you tell me why you are so short of money?"

Du Mingyuan gritted his teeth and said, "My dad ran away with a lot of debt, leaving a big mess for me and my mother. Therefore, I had to work every day to pay off the debt. At first, I worked part-time in a convenience store, but there were enough staff. I quit, and now I'm moving sand on a small construction site, which is only a week away, so I'm looking for a new job."

"It turns out that it's really hard work." Chen Zijun sighed slightly, feeling that he was a little miserable, and said, "The money is fine, but I need to give it to you tomorrow, because the money is all in the bank, you can come and take care of me tomorrow. Can."

Du Mingyuan bowed his thanks and said, "Thank you very much for your help, thank you, thank you."

"It's okay." Chen Zijun smiled.

Chen Zijun could still pay the two thousand yuan.

After a while, Du Mingyuan left completely, and Chen Zijun didn't hold back. Zhong Xiaqing stepped out and asked, "Has it been resolved?"

"kindness."

"That's good, it's great that Du Mingyuan can find a suitable part-time job with you. His family knows a lot in our class, and people in the class have donated to him, but he doesn't accept it at all. Because I can't put my face down."

"It's not so much face, it's more about dignity. Everyone's personality is different, it's normal."
