Rebirth of the God of Comics

After dinner, Chen Ze and Lin Lan went back to rest. It was a long journey from G City to Tokyo. So Chen Ze and Lin Lan washed up early and went to bed.

At ten o'clock the next morning, Hirano Ling came to pick up Chen Ze and Lin Lan. It seems that Sanmin Publishing House has fully considered Chen Ze and Lin Lan's rest, and chose the right time to come, just as Chen Ze had just woken up to take a shower.

"Mr. Chen, Ms. Lin, the president of our publishing house invited the two of you to have lunch. After lunch, let's go to the location of the signing event."

In Chen Ze's room, Hirano Ling spoke.

Chen Ze and Lin Lan nodded, followed Hirano Ling, got into the car of their publishing house, and drove towards the restaurant arranged by their president.

The restaurant arranged by the publishing house seemed not far from the hotel, and it took less than 20 minutes to reach the destination.

From a distance, Chen Ze saw a group of Dongying people in their forties standing at the door of this restaurant, as if they were waiting for something. When Chen Ze and Lin Lan got out of the car, they surrounded them.

"It's our first meeting, Mr. Chen Ze and Ms. Lin, hello." The leader said, but he said it awkwardly, obviously he just learned this Chinese sentence.

"President Suga, hello."

Chen Ze smiled and replied that he had already seen the photo of the president of Sanmin Publishing House from Hirano Reina on the way here. Therefore, as soon as they got out of the car, they immediately recognized the Dongying man who greeted them as the president of the publishing house.

When replying to the words of the president of this publishing house, Chen Ze was also a little surprised. The president of the publishing house invited him to dinner, which was within his expectation. It's just that he didn't expect that the president of this publishing house would be waiting for him at the door of this restaurant.

In fact, if Chen Ze knew what his "Slam Dunk" brought to Sanmin Publishing House, he wouldn't be surprised by the president's actions.

After "Slam Dunk" entered the Japanese market, the sales were very good, and the sales in the first week. It rushed to the weekly sales list of their country's comics.

It reached the first position in the second week, and has not moved in the first position since then. And the second sales volume, although it is also Huaxia comics, but there is still a big gap between him and him.

It can be said that the performance of "Slam Dunk" has surpassed all contemporary young cartoonists. It is close to a historical figure like Li Mingyang.

For the owner of such a hugely popular manga,

Sanmin Publishing House, of course, put their heart and soul into the hospitality.

President Suga obviously only knows one sentence in Chinese. He didn't even understand Chen Ze's greeting, and Hirano Ling translated it for him.

Then he smiled and said something in Japanese. At the same time, he made an inward motion with his hands.

"Mr. Chen, our president asked you and Ms. Lin to go in. He is already inside and has arranged lunch." Hirano Ling turned around and translated their president's words to Chen Ze.

"OK."

Chen Ze nodded and joined Lin Lan. Go inside and go in.

This restaurant seems to be a Japanese restaurant, and the entire decoration style has quite an oriental flavor.

Sure enough, Ling Hirano's introduction later confirmed Chen Ze's thoughts. This is indeed a Japanese restaurant, and it is a fairly authentic Japanese restaurant with a history of more than 100 years.

Therefore, the price here is also quite high. People who can eat here. Either rich or expensive.

"Mr. Chen, you are welcome to accept our publishing house's invitation to come to Dongying as a guest. During this period of time, our publishing house has not entertained you well. I hope you can forgive me."

At the dinner table, Hirano Ling translated the words of their president, and spoke to Chen Ze and Lin Lan.

"President Suga, you are too polite." Chen Ze smiled. There was a table of Japanese dishes on the dinner table. Just looking at today's lunch, their hospitality has nothing to do with the word "buzhou".

"This time my "Slam Dunk" can be released in Dongying, thanks to your Sanmin Publishing House. So I am here, first toast to you." Chen Ze said.

Hirano Ling immediately translated Chen Ze's words to their president.

After listening to Rei Hirano's translation, President Kan laughed and raised his glass, "Then I wish "Slam Dunk" a big hit in Dongying. At the same time, I also wish our cooperation to continue in the long run."

"I hope our future cooperation can last for a long time." After hearing Hirano Rei's translation, Chen Ze said with a smile.

After this lunch, Chen Ze and Lin Lan took a rest, and under the leadership of Hirano Ling, they drove to the location of the signing meeting.

"Chen Ze, you drank a lot, are you okay?" Lin Lan asked on the way.

"It's okay." Chen Ze shook his head. Although he had drunk a lot just now, Dongying Sake was not high in alcohol at all. He is still very sober now.

Soon, they arrived at the location of the signing event - Chaotian Building!

Chen Ze has held this kind of signing event in China for countless times. Although the location was changed to Dongying this time, the format was similar. Therefore, Chen Ze didn't worry about anything other than language.

Chen Ze and Lin Lan, led by the staff of the publishing house, walked into the building through the back door and reached the back of the signing event.

"Mr. Chen, our scheduled autograph session will start at 3:00 pm. But I didn't expect that there will be too many fans this time. If we continue to wait, I'm afraid the outside will exceed the capacity of the entire venue."

After resting for a while backstage, Rei Hirano came over and said. She also knew that "Slam Dunk" was indeed in Dongpu, and now it has extraordinary popularity. But when she arrived at the venue, she realized that the popularity of this comic was beyond her imagination.

The venue of Chaotian Building is one of the largest venues in Tokyo. Generally speaking, there are more than enough cartoonists from China, except for the extremely popular ones.

They originally thought that although "Slam Dunk" sold quite well, Chen Ze was just a newcomer no matter what, and there was absolutely no problem with the signing meeting here.

They were even a little worried that the entire venue would appear to be a little empty because there were not enough fans coming.

Looking at it now, their worries are really unnecessary.

Not only did it not appear empty, but the number of fans almost exceeded the maximum capacity of the venue. If we continue to wait, the fans will definitely burst this towering building.

Chen Ze nodded after hearing Hirano Ling's words. He understood the meaning of Hirano Ling's words: "Well, then let's hold this autograph meeting in advance."

"Okay, I'll get ready right away." Rei Hirano nodded.

In a short while, the start of the Dongying fansign will be ready.

"Dear fans, fellow comic fans. Our "Slam Dunk" signing event starts now. First, let's invite the cartoonist of "Slam Dunk", Mr. Chen Zechen from Huaxia."

On a small stage, the host spoke. As soon as his voice fell, Chen Ze walked up, took the microphone handed over by the staff, and greeted the fans below in Japanese.

"Hi everyone, I'm Chen Ze, thank you for liking "Slam Dunk"."

Chen Ze learned this sentence from Lin Lan last night, and it took him a long time to master this sentence proficiently. Now facing a group of Japanese fans, he spoke up.

Originally, after "Slam Dunk" was released in Dongying, everyone liked this sports animation very much, so they were also very interested in the author of this comic.

With this mentality, some fans searched for information about Chen Ze on the Internet. It turned out that he was already a super popular cartoonist in Huaxia, the first person of his generation, even in front of many seniors, he did not fall behind.

This time, fans are more interested in him. Especially some female fans, when they saw that Chen Ze was still so young and handsome, just like Rukawa Kaede in the comics, they immediately fell in love with him.

So Chen Ze said hello in Japanese, which directly received enthusiastic responses from fans. His enthusiasm was stronger than domestic ones, but it directly surprised Chen Ze himself.
