Chapter 63: Design a Character
Because one side is glass, the view is excellent, and the studio is located on the third floor, so you can directly see the scenery in the distance.
Part of the terrace was preserved and made into a balcony, where flowers and plants were placed in an orderly manner, and the air was filled with a faint floral fragrance.
Yu Jingmo stayed in the studio in the afternoon and painted an oil painting. The protagonist of the painting was Tuotuo who was having fun downstairs.
She had been planning to draw a few more short comic strips today, as her previous stock had all been distributed.
But no painter in this studio could refuse, so they couldn't help but use the paint.
I took a picture of the painting on the canvas with my phone. It doesn’t matter if there’s no comic strip, can’t this also be used as material?
As soon as she posted the painting on Weibo, her cell phone rang.
When she clicked on it, she saw that it was the person Hongsui had contacted before.
[Big brother, can I tag you on Weibo? I’ve finished restocking and now I’m planning to promote it online before the Mid-Autumn Festival.]
Yu Jingmo tried to hold it in, but still couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Is it too late to start promoting now? We have already been left far behind by other brands.
But he was not slow in giving the other party a positive answer.
[Thank you! I should have promoted this before, but I was so busy lately that I didn’t even think about it TT]
Yu Jingmo: “…”
Oh yeah, this is a brand where the boss wears multiple hats.
She had specifically looked up Hongsui's boss before, and there were photos of him on the Internet from his previous live broadcasts. He was a kind old man who was neither tall nor short, with a thin figure.
In fact, he is only fifty-one years old, but he looks like sixty in the live broadcast.
Maybe this was his last chance, but fortunately the result was good.
But every time she saw a message from him, she still had to react before she remembered that the person on the other end was an old man in his fifties.
She refreshed her Weibo and saw Hongsui’s new Weibo post. She liked it and left a comment.
Hongsui's Weibo post initially received only a dozen likes, but quickly the number grew to over a hundred.
[What?! It’s actually a painting by Rent?! !]
[Ahhh, I went to buy mooncakes with my mom a few days ago, and I bought a box despite the roar of a lion. I originally just wanted the box, but I didn’t expect the mooncakes to taste so good]
[!! Is it sold in online stores?]
[I like it so much. This painting makes the whole gift box look so classy. The details are so well done. Is this really a smurf account of some big shot?!]
[I agree! Although the box is also made of cardboard, the entire area with the painting is embroidered cloth! The texture is amazing!]
[I originally thought it was a bit expensive, but now I suddenly understand! ]
Boss Hongsui sat in front of the computer and knew who deserved the credit as soon as he saw the comment section.
I was glad that I had discovered some gold that had not yet shined and had gotten a great bargain.
Although he gave almost one-third of his existing liquid funds for this order, it was actually not much, at least he could not hire a painter with mature and talented painting skills that even an outsider could see.
If the other party had not yet made a name for himself and had not minded that Hongsui was an old brand that had almost disappeared in the great waves, he might have really sold the factory.
Yu Jingmo was not in a hurry to quit Weibo. He had just been concentrating on it for a few hours and now wanted to relax.
She picked out some comments and read one of them:
[Dear, is this groundhog yours? It's so cute! I also want to raise one. Do you have any experience to share?]
Yu Jingmo thought for a moment and replied:
[It’s a kid’s pet, we haven’t had it for long, so we don’t have much experience. It’s best to have a bigger space for the marmot.]
In fact, Tuotuo is a very well-behaved little groundhog. It doesn't destroy things at home, but it also likes to run around.
Its room was on the first floor. At first, it went to almost every room with an open door. Later, every time it ran into the kitchen, it would be carried out. After so many times, it stopped going to the kitchen.
Yu Jingmo even praised it for this and bought it a cool backpack.
But she had also heard that some woodchucks were just as capable as Huskies in tearing down houses.
After posting this not-so-experienced experience, she browsed around for a while and then put her phone down.
Lin Qingchuan sent a message saying that he would not be back for dinner, so Yu Jingmo went downstairs to tell the kitchen and order some food.
When I walked to the first floor, I suddenly remembered that I had not yet decided what to give Lin Hui to express her gratitude, and my happy mood instantly dropped several degrees.
"Uncle Lin, will Lin Hui come back for dinner tonight?"
Seeing Butler Lin passing by, he stopped him and asked.
Steward Lin stopped and said, "It's not clear yet. The young master usually sends a message back around four o'clock."
Yu Jingmo glanced at the clock in the living room. It was only half past three.
"If he says anything later, please let me know, Uncle Lin."
"Ok."
After telling housekeeper Lin that Lin Qingchuan would not be coming back for dinner, Yu Jingmo went to the living room to watch TV.
This time, Lin Hui sent a message a few minutes after four o'clock saying that he would not be back for dinner.
Yu Jingmo felt inexplicably relieved after knowing this.
After dinner, she took a short walk and went upstairs to wash up.
After blow-drying her hair, she wanted to sit in the studio because the scenery there was beautiful and the decoration was very comfortable. She could see the stars by looking up while sitting on the sofa in the rest area.
As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Lin Qingchuan walking towards her with a large box in his hand.
Perhaps he didn't expect her to come out suddenly, and his whole body froze for a moment before he continued walking.
Yu Jingmo: "What's the matter?"
Lin Qingchuan handed over the box in his hand and said, "This is for you, as an apology for my... complaint."
Yu Jingmo was surprised. In fact, she had almost forgotten about this matter after waking up from a sleep.
It didn't cause any harm to her in the first place, and "enslaving" her for a few hours yesterday was enough.
But she took the box anyway.
Even though I was prepared, I almost couldn't hold it steady when I got it.
A closer look revealed that it was a Lego castle, which was nearly one meter high when assembled.
Yu Jingmo: “…”
The one she brought back before is still covered in dust. What gave Lin Qingchuan the illusion that she liked this?
As if he noticed that her expression was not right, Lin Qingchuan's face became even more wooden: "You don't like Lego?"
"...I like the way they look when they're put together," she said tactfully.
Lin Qingchuan was silent.
Yu Jingmo couldn't bear to hurt a child's sincere apology. "But sometimes I will try my best without Lin'an, but I can't do much. I'll call you when I need to."
"Thank you. The complaint is over now," she continued.
The boy finally stopped being silent and responded.
Yu Jingmo waved his hand, "Okay, you go back, I'll go to the studio."
Lin Qingchuan returned to the room.
She also put her things back in the room and continued walking towards the studio.
As soon as I entered the door, a voice sounded in my mind:
[There is a task! Please design a character for Lin Qingchuan to become the villain in the comic you are serializing!]
