Going home for the New Year during the winter break, I encountered a cool school girl on the high-sp

Chen Chen was unaware of the decision his parents had made.

When he woke up the next day, he felt dizzy and had a terrible headache.

"Now you know what a headache is?"

Lin Muxi's voice came from the side, carrying a hint of reproach, yet also concealing a subtle concern.

Chen Chen struggled to lift his head and saw that she was holding a bowl of congee and had already sat down on the edge of the bed.

Chen Chen tried to smile to show he was alright, but the movement aggravated a nerve in his temple, causing him to wince in pain and gasp for breath.
"hiss……"

Seeing this, Lin Muxi quickly reached out and gently supported his shoulder, saying softly:

"If you have a headache, don't move around too much. This is some light porridge that Wang Ma just cooked. After a hangover, eat something light to soothe your stomach."

Where is Yuanyuan?

He asked vaguely, his gaze sweeping around the room.

"She went to work early this morning,"

As Lin Muxi spoke, she handed him the bowl of porridge, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"This girl was full of energy on her first day of work, and she was afraid of being late."

Chen Chen nodded knowingly.

He took the warm bowl of porridge. The fragrance of the rice porridge mixed with a faint ginger flavor dispelled some of the alcohol fumes and the sluggish feeling brought on by his headache.

Chen Chen sipped the warm porridge slowly, the fragrance of the rice filling his mouth, and his stomach gradually felt warm and comfortable.

Lin Muxi sat quietly to the side and watched him.

"After you finish drinking, take a nap. It's not too late to go to work in the afternoon."

She suggested softly.

Chen Chen shook his head, put down the porridge bowl, and his eyes showed a firm determination: "No, I still have to go to the studio today to discuss the animation samples with Zihao and the others. I can't delay."

Now that he had decided what to do, Chen Chen wanted to get it done in one go.

Lin Muxi frowned slightly, her tone carrying a hint of reproach and worry:

"This isn't something that can be done in a day, so it's not a big deal if it's a little late. Listen to me, sleep a little longer and get some rest."

"Even if you let me lie down, I might not be able to sleep because I have things on my mind."

Chen Chen met her gaze, a reassuring smile appearing on his lips. "Don't worry, I'm really fine. I'm just still a little hungover, but I'll be fine after a while."

Looking into the familiar, unwavering light in his eyes, Lin Muxi knew that saying anything more would be futile.

She knew Chen Chen well; once he set his mind on something, his stubbornness was unstoppable.

Especially now that he urgently needs to make a name for himself.

She sighed softly, stood up, and took the empty bowl from his hand:

"Alright, I really can't do anything with you. Go wash up first, and I'll ask Aunt Wang to prepare some light breakfast for you so you can have something to eat before you go. You can't go to work on an empty stomach."

Her tone carried a hint of compromise, but even more so, it revealed her undisguised thoughtfulness.

Chen Chen felt a warmth in his heart and nodded: "Okay."

After quickly washing up and changing into clean clothes, Chen Chen felt much better.

In the living room, Wang Ma had indeed prepared a simple breakfast:

A small dish of side dishes, two delicate steamed buns, and a cup of warm milk.

Lin Muxi had finished eating and was now sitting to the side reading the latest update of the novel.

Her comics have reached the latest update of the novel.

So she hasn't been as busy lately. Currently, she's considering drawing a new comic.

After Chen Chen finished breakfast, the two went out side by side.

Arrived at the studio.

Everyone else has arrived.

Yan Zihao joined the studio before Chen Chen.

Once everyone had arrived, Chen Chen immediately called several core executives to his office for a meeting.

“Speaking of which,” Lü Zihan’s eyes sparkled, her excitement undiminished even after a whole night,
"Brother Chen, do you have a preliminary choice in mind? Is it 'The Spiritual Qi Is About to Revive' or 'I Am Supreme'? Or that dark horse 'My Treasure Girl'?"

Chen Chen shook his head, his eyes thoughtful:

"Each of these three has its own advantages. 'Spiritual Aura: The Resurrection' has a grand world view and the best fan base."

The fight scenes in "I Am the King" are exciting and visually impactful.

"My Treasure Girl" belongs to the urban realistic genre, which makes it relatively easier for it to break out of its niche.

He paused, then looked at Yan Zihao.

"Zihao, what's your opinion? From a market perspective?"

Yan Zihao thought for a moment and then asked, "What do you think? Anyway, I'll listen to you."

Whenever he put forward an idea, Chen Chen always found a way to turn it into reality.

Chen Chen rested his chin on his hands, deep in thought.

“I think a strong fan base is important, but what’s even more important is whether the ‘sample’ can grab attention in a short time and showcase the potential of our team.”

"The Reiki Revival" is too grand in scope, and a short sample of a few minutes may not be enough to show its essence, and may even appear superficial.

The fight scenes in "I Am the King" are a highlight, but producing high-quality fight animation is also the most costly and technically demanding. We had a tight schedule and a low margin for error.

He then changed the subject: "But 'My Treasure Girl' is a good example. Its episodic format is perfect for making short sample episodes."

We can select one of the most brilliant short stories that best reflects its unique style and concentrate our resources on refining it.

Reality, fantasy, and a twist make it easier to leave a lasting impression in a short time.

Moreover, its modern urban setting might save some effort in set design, allowing us to invest more resources in character development and atmosphere creation.

Lu Zihan frowned: "But the content of 'My Treasure Girl' is quite exaggerated compared to reality, wouldn't that be...?"

"It's precisely because it's exaggerated that it's unique." Chen Chen smiled slightly.
"If we're going to do it, we can't follow the usual steps. We have to do what everyone dares to do but no one can actually do. Only in this way can we resonate with most people in a short period of time and let our partners see our capabilities and potential."

A truly effective stepping stone isn't necessarily the biggest one, but it's definitely the one most capable of opening a specific door.

Chen Chen had always felt that "My Treasure Girl" had potential, and now that he had a plan, he naturally wanted to do his best to make it a success.

A glint of light flashed in Yan Zihao's eyes; Chen Chen's analysis had given him a sudden insight.

"I agree with Brother Chen. Let's use 'My Treasure Girl'! If we're going to do something, we should do something that others can only dream of!"

As expected, listening to Chen Chen was the right thing to do.

Chen Chen made the final decision, "Okay! It's 'My Treasure Girl'!"

After being analyzed by the two, Lü Zihan was immediately convinced and excitedly slapped her thigh, "I love the realistic exaggeration style! Technically speaking, this is even simpler. I guarantee it will be absolutely outstanding!"

"Then it's settled!" Chen Chen declared decisively, his tone leaving no room for argument.
"I'll take some time to sort through the chapters of 'My Treasure Girl' and select the stories that are most suitable for adaptation into a sample film. We'll continue our discussion tomorrow morning."

At the same time, you also need to begin screening and communicating with the core members of the technical team to ensure that once the plan is finalized, they can be immediately deployed. (End of Chapter)
