Chapter 357: Cartoonists
At Suhua Railway Station, a team of dozens of cartoonists and families walked out of the ticket gate.
"Where are you going?"
"I'll look at my phone, huh, the forum said that the ticket gate came out to the right, and then from e..."
"Enter from the subway station entrance to exit e, then buy a subway ticket from Subway Line 5 to the east of University Town, then exit D and transfer to the ship to Manhua Island. Look, I have carved it down!"
Teacher Tomato stood proudly in front of the team to show off, but as soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yan shouted in surprise: "Ah, everyone, look over there, there is guidance over there!"
Shortly after the ticket gate came out, after the crowd leaving the station was diluted, a two-meter-high guide sign was placed in the door of the convenience store with a large letter printed at the top - a route map to Manga Island.
The cartoonists walked past him regardless of Tomato's stiff face, and then came to the guide sign. The above is a large character, and the lower part is Su Hua's map and detailed route guide, including how to use the subway to get there, how to take the bus, the cost of various methods is very clear, and there is even a service phone number for Comic Island that you can call when you encounter difficulties and accidents.
"Well, the subway is the fastest, you only need to change to a ship once, and the fare is also low."
"The bus costs the lowest, but the subway is faster. OK, let's take the subway!"
"Agree!"
The cartoonists walked towards the subway station in groups, and Teacher Tomato stood there a little unhappy: "Well, that little girl Wang Yan deliberately did not give me face, right?"
"Okay, Mr. Tomato, don't be so stingy."
Li Qin stood aside and said with a smile. This time she came with the cartoonists to join in the fun. By the way, she became familiar with the route.
"Sister Qin. Don't worry about him, let's go!" Teacher Hua Meng glanced at Fanto and pulled Li Qin away.
Teacher Tomato was a little depressed. What? He just accidentally took the wrong snacks from a new female cartoonist on the high-speed rail. Is it so that all cartoonists look cold?
"Are these people kids?"
He couldn't help thinking.
"Don't care, they're just teasing you." One hand patted Mr. Tomato on the shoulder, and he turned his head and saw the mach with a refreshing smile on his face: "For such a pleasant trip and sunny weather, Tomato you should be optimistic, yes, optimistic, keep smiling like me!"
Mach smiled brightly, just like the handsome guy in the girl's comics appearing, and Tomato seemed to be able to see the roses blooming behind him.
"What a flat smile!"
Looking at this smile, Tomato wanted to punch Mach in the face, but he couldn't bear it.
During this carnival, Mach's wife had to work overtime, so Mach had to come here alone. Since she separated from her wife at Ninghai Railway Station, the smile on Mach's face has never stopped. The whole process gives people a sense of strangeness like a beautiful boy - she is so afraid of her wife. Mach is quite pitiful.
"well……"
Tomato patted Mach's shoulder sympathetically, and said nothing, and took him to catch up with the comics team.
There are not many professional cartoonists who hold a signing ceremony this time, only a few more than twenty, but two or three are enough to last until the end of the carnival every day. This time, the cartoonists are almost all veteran cartoonists of Phoenix Company with a base of readers. Although there are a large number of newcomers who debuted in the past year, they have limited influence. There are only three newcomers selected to participate in the carnival signing ceremony. Wang Yan is one of them, and there are two other talents, both men and women.
After forty minutes of high-speed rail driving, the cartoonists arrived at the 'University Town East Station'. There was only one exit at this site. As soon as you came out, you could see the huge sign outside the convenience store at the door.
"The steamship heading to Manga Island, turn right and walk straight for 300 meters."
A very simple tip: a distance of 300 meters does not take much time to walk.
"Hold signs in convenience stores. This is a good method. How much do you think the advertising fee is required?"
"There is no need for advertising fees at all. Just renting a place and it will cost a few hundred yuan at most!"
The cartoonists chatted and walked, and the carnival would take two days to start, so there were not many people around them. The port in the west of the university town is not a big port. When the cartoonists arrived, the ship had just arrived and the cost of boarding was two yuan. This boat was just an ordinary short-distance passenger ship, and it took less than half an hour to travel between the two islands.
"It's really simple!" Li Qin said with some surprise: "I'll remember this route once."
"Yes, Sister Qin, you can come to see Teacher He Xi often." Hua Meng smiled and said, "Actually, as long as you make a phone call, Teacher He Xi will definitely send someone to pick you up."
"Forget it, this is too troublesome." Li Qin shook her head and said, "I think he is very busy here. Isn't there anyone to greet you this time?"
This time the cartoonists came here, but no one greeted them at the train station. To be honest, it was a bit unreasonable. No matter how busy the comic island was, we should not neglect the affairs of the cartoonists, right?
"We refused this time." Hua Meng was stunned for a moment, and then explained with a smile: "We found that there was no problem after seeing the route. In addition, we were all here together, so we told the company that there was no need to worry."
Wang Yan also said, "The travel expenses and accommodation expenses are both covered by the company. We are not children, so we don't have to bother them with this little thing."
"Yes, we are very satisfied with the signing meeting!"
"I never thought I could hold a signing party, and now I feel a little excited..."
"So too. I don't know how many readers will be willing to come over. If there is no one, you will lose face!"
The cartoonists echoed that they didn't care about the pick-up and drop-off of Manga Island, and what they cared most was the signing party. The Chinese comic industry has developed for a short time, and the signing party for comics is even rarer. This large-scale signing party of Phoenix Company really excited these cartoonists.
However, when they boarded the island, there was still someone to welcome them. Zhou Qian was sent to arrange accommodation for cartoonists. Originally, this was Jose's job, but Jose was too busy to have time, so he was transferred to Zhou Qian. Zhou Qian prepared a vehicle for cartoonists and took them to He Xizhi's dessert shop.
"Today, the company is short of staff, so we did not greet all the teachers in time. In order to apologize, I will invite everyone to have a dessert." She said, the apology is true, but this time, there are plans for Big Sisters Alliance to invite desserts - it is a great way to promote the operation of He Xizhijia Dessert Store at the Carnival.
The staff of the dessert shop welcomed the cartoonists very enthusiastically.
"Auntie, what do you want to order?"
"Auntie, I'll treat you to this glutinous rice cake."
"Auntie, you are so beautiful, young and beautiful!"
What surprised the cartoonists was that there was a very cute girl working in the dessert shop, and they didn't know if it was an hallucination, but they found that the girl was always entangled by Li Qin.
Li Qin also had this feeling. She felt that the girl was very sticky and her mouth was particularly sweet, which made her unable to help but think in her heart: "Am I really getting younger and younger?"
But this phenomenon made Zhou Qian on the side look coldly and sweat.
"How could this girl Ling Shuang stick to Sister Qin? Does she know that Sister Qin is Teacher He Xi's mother?" She was a little suspicious. No one had disclosed the news about Li Qin, but Ling Shuang's understanding of He Xi's information sometimes exceeded Zhou Qian. Even if she knew Li Qin's appearance, it was not surprising.
"I hope she doesn't do it too much."
Zhou Qian was not good at exposing her in person, and she thought to herself while drinking water, but this idea just appeared-
"Auntie, can you let me take you to play Carnival these days? And can I sleep with you at night?" Ling Shuang suddenly said this, causing Zhou Qian to almost spit out the water from her mouth. She coughed twice and quickly inserted her mouth and said, "Ling Shuang, don't mess around!"
Li Qin's room arrangement was in Meng Huo's apartment. Zhou Qian didn't know whether Ling Shuang knew about this information, but she couldn't let Ling Shuang and Meng Huo meet. Meng Huo was so busy that she was too busy recently. If this little devil was asked to disturb him, Zhou Qian was very worried that she would be fired.
She stood up and carried Ling Shuang to the kitchen, letting others stare at the girl not allow her to go out. (To be continued...)
