Chapter Eleven: Something Happened

"So you're a cartoonist?"

In front of a barbecue stall next to Xinhuayuan Community, Chen Ze and Aunt Tian’s daughter were sitting on a table with various barbecue on it.

Under the leadership of the girl, Chen Ze quickly bought what he needed. In order to express his gratitude to the girl, Chen Ze naturally invited the girl to have supper. However, because the girl said that she had already had supper, Chen Ze had to invite her to barbecue.

During the chat along the way, Chen Ze quickly found out about the girl's situation. Her name is Zhang Jingning, and she is a sophomore in the Department of Fine Arts of G City. Her dream of studying in the Department of Fine Arts is to be a cartoonist.

Before she dropped out of school, Chen Ze was a college student at G City University. She was still her senior and happened to be a cartoonist, so she soon started chatting with Zhang Jingning.

"It's barely one." Chen Ze smiled and picked up a skewers on the table.

"Really? That's great. I have wanted to be a cartoonist since I was a child. Now I just want to ask you how you can be a cartoonist?" After Zhang Jingning got Chen Ze's affirmative answer, she looked at him with admiration and said.

When Chen Ze faced Zhang Jingning's eyes, he suddenly felt that Alexander had no experience. Did he tell her that he was actually a time traveler and reborn, and he painted all the works of the fire in his previous life?

Of course this is impossible, so Chen Ze had to start fooling around and say something that everyone knows: "Well, of course, the first is to have solid basic skills. Your picture expressiveness will directly determine the quality of your comics. The second is to persist. There are too many people who spend comics now, so it is required to have a heart that can endure loneliness before becoming famous and be able to persevere."

However, his words made the girl nodded frequently, which greatly satisfied Chen Ze's vanity. He kept boasting with Zhang Jingning while eating skewers and drinking beer, and almost told all the secrets that he was a reborn person.

Zhang Jingning might really want to be a cartoonist. When she faced Chen Ze, who was a little nonsense later, she still listened with relish. One night, she passed by while listening to Chen Ze's boast.

Chen Ze was tired of moving for a day and drank a little more wine in the evening. In addition, he had been working hard for a while, so he woke up the next afternoon. When he woke up, he found that his phone had been called dozens of times by his editor and Lin Lan.

"What's wrong!"

Seeing so many missed calls, Chen Ze thought to himself, and he hurriedly went back.

"Hey, my god. You finally got back the phone. If you don't reply, I will call the police." Chen Ze's boss, Lin Lan, said on the other end of the phone.

"My phone was silent and I threw it away from home, so I didn't hear it yesterday." Chen Ze explained, and then said, "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"

"What happened? You have forgotten what day it is!" Lin Lan replied.

What day? Chen Ze looked at the calendar at hand. Isn’t it Wednesday? It’s nothing special! Wednesday? Chen Ze immediately reacted.

"Sorry, I forgot to give you the manuscript of the new issue of "Slam Dunk" last night."

Wednesday is the day when "Manke Weekly" is published. Most cartoonists send manuscripts on Monday, and one day is just enough to print. Chen Ze and New Anime are in the same city, so they can send it one day later. But yesterday Chen Ze was busy moving and actually forgot about such an important thing.

"It's good that you remember it. Do you know that because you didn't update the first issue, our sales have dropped a lot. And our company's phone calls are about to be blew up, and they are all here to urge you to update."

It was the first time Lin Lan saw this situation. She has been calling since the morning. She was called by fans of "Slam Dunk" to ask about the situation. Although this also proves the popularity of "Slam Dunk", it is annoying to be harassed too much. There is no way, Lin Lan can only contact Chen Ze as soon as possible. But she has been unable to contact Chen Ze since the morning, and it has not been until now that Chen Ze takes the initiative to contact Lin Lan.

"You go and have a look. I guess it's not only my phone number, but also the Internet has already had a lot of trouble."

After listening to Lin Lan's phone call, Chen Ze quickly went online to check the situation. As expected, his TT group, ** message and Slam Dunk were all in trouble.

"Where has God Chen Ze been going? I'm asking for updates!"

"What's going on, why haven't it been updated?"

"I wish to renew my morality with my greatness for a new chapter."

"I've been waiting for a week. Master, are you so swollen and breaking your promise."

Most of the online posts and speeches are like this.

There are also remarks such as "The grass is so exciting and I won't watch it again." Of course, such extreme remarks did not receive the response from most people. Instead, everyone still rationally advised him to understand the cartoonist.

In fact, it is normal to interrupt occasionally. No cartoonist has a headache or a fever, and most readers will not be so anxious. However, Chen Ze just updated last week to Mitsui leading bad gangsters to the basketball court to smash the venue. The plot is a tense time, and the interruption is the most unbearable at this time.

From the perspective of readers, Chen Ze can actually understand them. Moreover, he is not stuck in the plot, and even his manuscript has been drawn in the battle between northern Hunan and Hainan, so Chen Ze is considering how to remedy this incident.

Chen Ze thought about it and called Lin Lan: "Hey, Editor-in-Chief Lin, I have already understood what happened this time, it was my negligence. I have an idea, do you see if it is feasible."

As he said that, Chen Ze expressed his thoughts.

"Released a special edition?" Lin Lan asked back after hearing Chen Ze's words.

"That's right, since I forgot to update today, it's better to release a special edition tomorrow. A magazine only serializes "Slam Dunk". I think fans should be satisfied with this." Chen Ze explained. He thought about it and the special edition could just tell Mitsui's story. This compensation should be enough.

"Okay, okay, but do you have so many manuscripts?" Lin Lan asked. In fact, she thought that the reason why Chen Ze did not update was that there was no manuscript, because many cartoonists had no manuscripts and didn't update them. Of course, when explaining, they always looked for various reasons, rather than saying that she forgot about it like Chen Ze.

Moreover, Lin Lan also felt that Chen Ze's move was unnecessary, and it was actually normal to make a decision. At most, readers would just complain a few words and then pass. However, since Chen Ze wanted to do this, it would not harm Lin Lan, so of course she supported it.

"Don't worry, I still have a lot of manuscripts." Chen Ze said, "Then I'll send the manuscript now."

After saying that, Chen Ze took the manuscript and went out. After sending the goods, he took out his cell phone and entered his own **. His ** has already gained more than 100,000 fans because of the hot relationship of "Slam Dunk".

"I'm sorry that there was no update today. I was delayed because of something. But to compensate you, "Manke Weekly" will release a special edition tomorrow, and there will be stories you want to see. Remember to read it!"
