Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?.

Chapter 40 Comics have nothing to do with faith! Comics are above faith!
The slightly dilapidated Qun Ying She Building.

Oda Shingo looked up at the not-too-tall old building and said, "This is the headquarters of Qun Ying She."

There is a huge poster printed on the outside of the building, which is the best comic of the month. It looks so high and mighty that people look up to it.

"My home is not far away, but this is my first time here." Fujido Kaoru was a little nervous. She opened her mouth and tilted her head back. "What a big comic poster. It's so impressive to be printed on a building!"

Oda Nobuo twisted his mouth and said, "I made it, you can take my place!"

He strode into the headquarters building with Fujido Kaoru.

Fujido Kaoru asked in a low voice: "Teacher Oda, is the first floor the legendary historical wall?"

"Yes."

Fujido Kaoru let out a low cry: "Wow..."

She walked deliberately lightly, fearing that she would appear rude in front of the holy land.

Everyone in the comics industry knows about the history wall of Qun Ying She.

This is the birthplace of the cartoonist's dream, and Oda Shingo can't wait to see the legendary existence.

The comic history wall is the display board wall in the lobby on the first floor of the Qun Ying Society Building. It records the development of comics and the glorious history of Qun Ying Society, and also has photos and achievements of many comic celebrities.

There are many precious manuscripts and old photos among them.

"These two people are..." The guards at the door of the hall were a little stunned. Seeing them coming in so boldly, they did not stop them for a while.

Where did this big guy come from? No greeting, right?

He wanted to ask if he had made an appointment, but he felt that the other party's temperament did not seem like a humble comic book author at all.

"Hello, sir. May I ask..." The guard hurried forward and bowed thirty degrees.

The cartoonists that we usually see come in timidly, looking around.

Moreover, most of them are unkempt, and many of them are even dishevelled. How could they be like this one, who looks full of energy and even has such a beautiful female assistant by his side?
Is it a big man in the comics industry? But I remember there were only one or two young big men, and I have met them all.

Instead, the guard became timid, fearing that he might offend this unknown big shot.

In response to the guard's question, Oda Nobuo nodded slightly and said, "Wait a moment."

Without answering the guard, he started from the history wall and looked at each picture one by one.

There is still some time before the agreed time, plenty of time.

As you enter the Qun Ying Society, you will see display boards of outstanding works from past generations, as well as precious historical photos that record the arduous journeys of generations of cartoonists.

Although Oda Shingo himself is not very familiar with the above characters, the memories of the original body can help to understand.

He stood in front of the Qun Ying She comic history display board in the hall, and his original imposing feeling suddenly disappeared.

At this moment, he took the initiative to humble himself from the bottom of his heart, as humble as a student.

Fujido Kaoru's eyes widened: "Teacher Oda, I feel a little excited when I see these display boards."

"Anyone who truly loves comics will be like you." Oda Shingo said solemnly.

Shingo Oda watched the comics on the display board develop step by step, and paid personal tribute to each figure who left his name in the history of comics.

Qunyingshe was founded in 1926 and is about to celebrate its 98th anniversary. With a -year history, it has a bumpy but glorious past.

The first "Detailed Drawings of Animals and Figures" with the concept of serialization, the first photo of using an oil roller printing machine to print comics, and the hand-drawn record of the first cheap comic book on the market...

Although the pages are in black and white, they are the most colorful pictures!
Writing about the unforgettable youth in the lives of comic lovers!

Oda Shingo thought back to his childhood.

I'll save money to buy Saint Seiya even if I don't eat lunch...

I watched Dragon Ball with my classmates under the street lights...

Going to the basketball court is to realize the dream of "Slam Dunk"...

I am sad about the various cuts in "X-Men"...

Laughed out loud at the spoof of "The Sorcerer"...

Regret for the difficult update of "Cape"...

Although this world does not have the classic masterpieces mentioned above, the history of comics on the walls is also a shocking journey.

Oda Shingo could feel that the historical footprints of the classic comics on the wall made his body and the dusty memories tremble slightly.

All of this comes from the creation of cartoonists!
Although they are different worlds, the emotions inherited from cartoonists of all generations are the same!

At the headquarters of Qunyingsha, no matter how much complaints its current business model may have, or how despicable its pursuit of capital and money-making is, it does not affect the greatness of cartoonists of all generations in the slightest!

"Toudou-kun, do you know why I read the history column of Qun Ying She first?" Oda Shingo said slowly. Without waiting for Toudou Kaoru to respond, he had already asked and answered himself:

"Every work here is full of the hard work and sweat of cartoonists."

“Every work here brings out the true feelings and emotions of many readers!”

“Every work here is filled with the blood, passion and youth of countless people!”

"The history of comics, which has lasted for nearly a hundred years, embodies the beliefs of countless comics artists."

“If someone says comics have nothing to do with faith.”

"I said, he is right, because..."

“Comics have nothing to do with faith!”

"Comics are higher than faith!"

Fujido Kaoru was also excited by what he said: "Teacher Oda..."

Her beautiful eyes sometimes looked at the display board, and sometimes quietly fell on Oda Shingo.

Yesterday I thought he was difficult to approach, but I never thought he had such a sentimental side...

Finally, Oda Shingo stopped at a blank wall.

Fujido Kaoru Fukushin said: "Teacher Oda, there is only one blank wall in the whole hall. Does it mean that new history will be written by new comic authors?"

"Do not."

"what?"

"It's left for us." Oda Shingo was confident, and he moved his hand to splash ink on the blank wall. "It's just that I didn't bring a pen today, otherwise I would have written my name directly!"

"That's great! Next time we come, we'll bring you a pen!" Fujido Kaoru's eyes lit up.

It sounds exciting, right? Fujido Xiangcheng, a melon-eating expert, is looking forward to it.

After slowly pacing around the hall to calm himself down, Oda Nobuo spoke to the guard again:
"I'm Oda Shingo, a new manga author, and I've made an appointment with the web department manager, Mikami Saburo."

The guard suddenly realized: "Oh - it turns out to be a new comic book author."

No wonder he was so excited, it turns out he is a newcomer who has never seen the world!

"Not debuted yet." Oda Shingo looked at his expression and added.

I just like doormen like you who can judge people by their appearance. It makes a protagonist like me feel more conquered.

Debut means that a manga artist begins to publish his/her work in a physical magazine. Even if he/she wins the Shouka Award, if his/her work cannot be published in a regular magazine such as Jump, Magazine, or Sunday, it is not considered a debut in the strict sense.

Although Oda Shingo has been published on the web, he is still far from his debut.

“You haven’t debuted yet…” The guard straightened his back, but when he looked at Oda Nobuo, he unconsciously dared not to straighten his chest.

The guard felt from him that he was a person in a high position.

This is a professional intuition developed by the security guard after watching the door for more than ten years.

No, this person cannot be offended easily!
"Do you need me to register?" Oda Shingo asked in a very kind manner.

After hearing this, the guard felt something was wrong.

Years of experience as a security guard: The greener the guard is, the more likely he is to jump and make noise. The more amiable he is, the higher his status is!

The Oda mentioned just now must be his real name! The guard racked his brains to think about it, maybe his pen name is some great god!

"Ah, is that Mr. Oda?" Mikami Saburo's assistant came over. "I'm Okita, assistant to Director Mikami of the Web Department. Director Mikami has been waiting for you!"

The guard was surprised.

It is very rare that someone from the headquarters will greet the cartoonist downstairs.

Sure enough, it’s the boss!

The guard looked at Oda Nobuo differently and immediately bowed ninety degrees.
