Big Manga

Chapter 350: Those Who Follow (Part 1)

The change of Manga Island is an incredible thing for the fresh graduates of Suhua University City. In a short period of time, the originally poor place suddenly turned into a luxury commercial street, with various brand stores arranged in an orderly manner. There are so many products, and they are more elegant than many prosperous areas in Suhua City, which surprised the students.

And seeing such a scene, they all understood that this island might develop into a new commercial center, and the recruitment here by Phoenix Company naturally attracted countless college students who went on and on.

"I heard that Lin Mei, the big beauty in the Department of Economics, has been successfully admitted. If we succeed in the application, we will be able to work in the same building as her."

"It seems that someone in the next class was also admitted successfully."

"There are a lot of recruits here, it would be great if we all went in."

On the street, a group of senior boys from Suhua Business School were discussing and walking. The recruitment activity in this manga island was their dream opportunity. Not only was it close to the university campus, but they also had the opportunity to work with familiar classmates and friends. The development prospect is also very good.

Of course, what most people value is the business prospect of this place. Many people know nothing about comics and have no interest in Phoenix Company.

Wang Shi is such a person. Although he came with his classmates, he just came to have a look. He has never read comics, and he has never thought of working in a comic company, and he passed the audit of a company a few years ago, and he will be able to go to work in a few months. There is no pressure at work.

While listening to the conversations of his classmates, he looked at the commercial street boredly. He was surprised that so many businesses invested here, but that's all.

"It's here... it's here."

The classmate stopped suddenly. Wang Shi looked up. I found myself at the door of a store called "Lu's Spring and Autumn".

"Lu's Spring and Autumn..."

Wang Shi couldn't help but want to laugh. This name is really funny, and it's not a bookstore, how could you choose such a name?

"Isn't this a game store? What are we doing here?"

A classmate asked this question.

"Take comic materials. Many of us here don't read comics. But the interviews with comic companies will definitely be related to comics. Here you can rent comics to read, and you don't need to buy them yourself." Another student replied: "And this is rarely the case. People know that they all go to buy it themselves, which is not cost-effective.”

"No wonder..." Wang Shi nodded.

No wonder the students brought him here, probably because they wanted to rent more comics. He went in with his classmates, and the game store really had comics for rent, but each person could only rent one copy with their ID card.

The clerk is a young man, and he handles things very neatly: "If you leave your ID number, you can get free deposit, and each comic is four yuan a day. If you spend at the designated place, you can also get two yuan for free drinks."

His words were very attractive, and several students quickly asked where it was.

"I can take you there." The clerk said, and then turned his head and shouted into the shop: "Brother, I will take the guests to He Xi's House, you should watch at the counter first."

"it is good."

Soon another young man walked out of the shop.

"This way, please." The first clerk led the surprised students out. On the way, Wang Shi said strangely: "You just called that person Senior Brother? Are you also from the University City?"

Many people in Suhua University City refer to the seniors of the first year as seniors.

"No, we are not college students." However, the clerk smiled and denied: "He is my real senior brother, that Lu's Spring and Autumn Store was opened by our master..."

"Master! Pfft... are you a martial artist?"

"No, how should I put it, we used to resell things... that is what you call scalpers." The clerk touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "We specialize in selling the works of Mr. He Xi. This time, the master wants to find some stability. to do things, so they brought us here to start a business.”

"He Xi's work? Who is that?"

Wang Shi was stunned.

"It's the author of the manga we're holding." The clerk didn't answer, but a classmate said, "He Xi is a talented manga artist. He has been popular all over the country in less than four years since his debut. You shouldn't read manga. I know, but have you heard of "Pokemon" and "Gundam Seed"?"

Wang Shi nodded: "It's cartoons, my sister seems to have watched these two works."

"Yes, these two cartoons are the works of Mr. He Xi." The classmate said with admiration: "He is only eighteen years old this year, and he is also the person in charge of the company we are applying for."

"Eighteen...four years..." Wang Shi was shocked, and then looked down at the cartoon in his hand: "Doesn't this mean that he made his debut at the age of fourteen?"

"That's right, it's fourteen years old... Wang Shi, you are out of date."

Another classmate said: "He is also a big star, and many people in the school like him. The big beauty of the economics department we mentioned before, Lin Mei, Lin Mei was originally admitted to the civil service, but when she heard that Teacher He Xi would come here, she immediately fell in love with him. Gave up the civil service position, and then participated in the Phoenix company interview."

"Many applicants are fans of Teacher He Xi." The clerk added with a smile, "I see that you don't know much about comics. This interview will be very difficult... oh, here we are..."

He led a group of people outside the dessert shop.

"He Xi's House..."

Wang Shi looked at the sign and was stunned again. Is that He Xi really a big star? There is even a store with the same name.

Moreover, this dessert shop is still very lively. The number of pedestrians in the entire comic island is not particularly large, but the dessert shop is almost full. When I walked in, I found that the customers in the shop were all college students, and everyone was reading comics.

"Welcome!" A girl came over, and Wang Shi heard a group of gasping voices around him: "This child is so cute...", "I really want to touch her..."

Appearing in front of them was a super invincible and cute little girl, about eleven or twelve years old, with a face made of pink makeup and jade, and she smiled like a doll.

"Eight guests? Please go this way, there is still room here..."

The girl skillfully led a group of people inside, but the clerk of the game store did not follow, Wang Shi looked back. Found that the clerk was talking to a waitress about something.

"So that's how it is..." He understood in his heart. There may be a cooperation between the game store and this dessert shop. To put it simply, the game store should be responsible for renting books and bringing customers here, but it provides two yuan for drinks for free. How does this dessert shop make money? There is a drink fee of two yuan, everyone will not spend a lot of money...

"Two servings of pearl milk tea, one serving of hot milk, one serving of freshly ground coffee, four servings of double-skin milk... a total of 30 yuan..."

Sure enough, eight people in Wang Shi ordered something worth 30 yuan, and because each of them had two coupons, that is to say. They spent fourteen yuan to enjoy the double treatment.

"The flow of people is small, and there is a free drink fee. This dessert shop will definitely lose money..."

Wang Shi sighed in his heart, but the next moment, he found that the girl who ordered the meal did not leave immediately.

"The drinks have been ordered, what dessert do you guys want?" She smiled: "The desserts in our store are very delicious, please try it, big brothers!"

"..."

Seeing this 'innocent' smile, Wang Shi suddenly found another sound of breathing around him, and several students quickly flipped through the menu.

"Give me another glutinous rice cake."

"I want an egg roll!"

Several desserts were ordered, and Wang Shi was startled. Such an amazing girl who can change the opinions of customers with her smiling face.

"Okay. I'll write it down...well... there are three brothers who haven't ordered, what do you need?"

The girl turned her head and asked the remaining three people who didn't order desserts. The first two ordered immediately. Just when Wang Shi didn't know why, the girl suddenly turned her smiling face to him: "Big brother, how about you?"

"I... I still count..."

Wang Shi wanted to say forget it, but suddenly, the other seven students all looked over viciously.

"I... want an osmanthus cake..."

"Okay, please wait a minute, big brothers, we will bring dessert and drinks soon."

The girl left with a smile on her face.

"What a cute girl..." "Yeah, cuter than my sister..." "Her smile is so innocent..."

After the girl left, several college students said happily, Wang Shi was dripping cold sweat listening to it, the girl's smile just now was definitely not pure, she obviously forced them to order something. It's too cunning for this shop to use a little girl to seduce customers, but the girl is very polite, just let them order whatever they want and leave.

After careful calculation, except for the two yuan discount, Wang Shi found that they were quite a bargain, and the dessert shop did not lose money. In this way, he felt that it was too petty for him to continue to mind.

"Come on, read comics, read comics!"

Several students started to greet them to read manga, they picked up different manga, and the remaining one "Shakugan no Shana" was put in Wang Shi's hand.

Wang Shi was surprised: "Isn't this the most important cartoon?"

This is the manga he reads the most on the street and in the shop, so why don't other students care about it?

"That's Mr. He Xi's latest manga. I heard that you are most likely to ask about this manga during the interview." A classmate turned his head and glanced at it, and then replied, "So we want to save it for the last, so If you don’t mind, Wang Shi, please take notes for us first..."

He took out the paper and pen from his bag and put them in front of Wang Shi, and said, "You are the best learner among us, help us write down the key points of "Shakugan no Shana", these key points are very useful."

Several other students also took out their notes, opened the comics, and prepared to record important information.

Wang Shi was dumbfounded: "Do you all remember?"

"That's right, this interview is very difficult, and the chance of passing is very small." A classmate replied: "We need to remember the key points of each comic, and then integrate the information of all people to quickly understand the situation of these comics. "

"Everyone has to read eight comics?"

"Yup!"

"This is too troublesome!" Wang Shi's head went numb.

"What's the trouble..." The classmate next to him laughed, and patted him on the shoulder: "This is a comic and not a boring material. There is no pressure at all after reading it." (To be continued...)
