Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

[Ah Guang]: "Hakimi music has been very popular recently, and I found it very interesting. I tried making a Hakimi song called 'Miracle Again,' and I hope everyone likes it."

There are new clues about the animation included; feel free to guess what they are.

The video begins with the classic opening sequence from Ultraman Tiga.

However, the original stirring lyrics of "Miracle Again" were replaced with catchy Hakimi lyrics.

Immediately afterwards, an electronic sound effect began to play:

"Hakimimi~North and South Green Beans~"

"Ashigaha~ Haya cool~"

"Omagiri~Yada Mampo~"

……

The visuals, synchronized with the lyrics, flashed quickly through various battle scenes of Ultraman Tiga.

However, the key parts were photoshopped with various cute cat head emojis.

Especially when Tiga fires his beam, the timer on his chest transforms into a blinking, puffing cat head, which is incredibly funny.

The video is short, only a little over a minute long, but the effect is amazing.

Within an hour, the video's comment section was completely flooded with comments.

Likes, shares, and comments skyrocketed.

"Hahaha, holy crap! The official use of memes is the most lethal!"

"So it turns out that A-Guang also likes Hakimi! I thought he didn't like him."

"I can't stop laughing, everyone! I've listened to this hilarious adaptation on repeat ten times!"

"I knew it! Those previous parodies were so low-quality! Look! This is what high-quality fan art looks like! Hakimi of Light!"

"I told you, the world would eventually belong to Hakimi."

"Gurongi up ahead, don't run! Take this Hakimi version of the Zepelion Ray!"

Amid the joyful atmosphere of playful memes, some observant viewers also noticed the animation clues mentioned in Yang Qian's caption.

"Wait, A-Guang said there are clues to the new animation in there? Besides Hakimi and the cat head, what else is there?"

"Could the new animation be related to cats? Hakimi Animation?"

"Could he really be a Fu Rui fanatic? (On alert)"

"Why is Everbright suddenly so determined to make 2D animation? Aren't tokusatsu (special effects) better?"

This same question exists in the [Animation Section UP Master Exchange Group].

"I don't understand Everbright's move. I can understand using Hakimi to respond to the parody; it's clever. But why insist on making a 2D animation?"

"Yes, he's already king of the tokusatsu (special effects) genre. Going into the red ocean of 2D animation would be too risky."

"Could it be that he saw that negative post and got carried away?"

Someone posted a link to the thread titled "Can tokusatsu dramas really be considered animation?"

[Old Zhang Talks About Anime]: "I guess Guangda is trying to show those people with his strength that he doesn't rely on special skills or tricks, but that he can succeed no matter what he does."

"Guangda is so foolish! He just fell for someone's provocation!"

"@Dami, editor, please persuade Guangda! It's not too late to turn back!"

[Rice]: "Huh, me? Me, try to persuade Guangda? What qualifications do I have?"

Although the editor, Da Mi, is said to be A Guang's personal editor.

But actually, he's more like a service worker.

Since Ah Guang has chosen to do it, we have no choice but to fully cooperate.

Even so, Da Mi was still quite apprehensive.

2D animation is a very complex field.

Will this really work?

Tencent Video, Lizi Entertainment, and some other domestic entertainment companies were immediately amused when they saw A Guang's message.

"Hahaha! Heaven is on my side! This Ah Guang really got cocky!"

"Tired of tokusatsu? Want to challenge our territory? They really don't know their own limitations!"

"2D animation? From scriptwriting and production to marketing, which part wasn't handled by our people? He's an outsider, what makes him think he can compete with us?"

"Quickly! Add fuel to the fire! The higher you lift him up, the harder he'll fall!"

"They're still too young; they get carried away after achieving a little success."

Several film and television companies that had previously suffered a major setback with "Guardians of the Galaxy" immediately joined forces and went on a buying spree to purchase trending topics.

#Land of Light Animation Studio Enters the 2D Animation Field, a Decisive Move!#

#Tremble, 2D Animation Circle! The Father of Tokusatsu is Coming with a New Work!#

#Industry Shock! Ah-Kuang Announces Production of 2D Animation, Potentially Reshaping the Industry Landscape!#

One after another, trending topics praising the topic suddenly appeared at the top of the list.

This tactic is called "killing with praise"!

A perfectly legitimate and aboveboard scheme.

"Director Yang, look at these trending topics, they're clearly up to no good!"

Yoshimi, holding her phone, angrily reported the incident.

Yang Qian glanced at it and laughed instead: "It's no big deal. They're just giving our new project free publicity; we should thank them."

"what?"

Yoshimi was stunned.

It's just a case of flattery to kill.

Yang Qian spoke in a flat tone.

Yang Qian had experienced this "praise to death" tactic many times in her previous life; she was all too familiar with it.

This tactic might work on others.

But for Yang Qian, it's really a good thing that her competitors are actively giving her attention.

Thank you to our partners for their strong support.

He then asked, "Has anyone from the Pen & Cube Animation Studio that I asked you to contact come yet?"

"They've arrived. The person in charge, Chen Yi, is already in the meeting room."

"Let's go see him."

Chen Yi, a graduate of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, is one of the heads of the Bimeng Animation Studio.

Although he is not the largest shareholder of the studio, he still has a certain degree of influence.

Bimeng Animation Studio is a small studio that makes a living by outsourcing animation.

However, most of them are just overpowered protagonist and isekai (another world) anime, often considered lowbrow or even trashy.

When he received a call from the Land of Light Animation Studio, his first thought was that it was a telecom scam.

Are telecom fraudsters these days so sophisticated? They start by saying, "I'm a staff member of the Land of Light."

Chen Yi: Then I'd still be Ultraman Tiga.

He only believed it when the other party sent him an official email with a company seal.

The other party is indeed the Land of Light Studio that created Ultraman Tiga and Kuuga.

As Yang Qian entered the reception room, Chen Yi immediately stood up nervously.

"Director Yang!"

"Please sit down, no need to be polite."

Yang Qian waved her hand and got straight to the point.

"I've asked you to come here because I want to collaborate on a 2D animation to participate in an official competition."

He shared the link to "Calling for Outstanding Children's Animation Works Across the Internet".

"I understand about participating."

Chen Yi nodded. The Kingdom of Light had a good relationship with the government, so it was reasonable for them to participate in the competition.

"What specific requirements does Director Yang have for the animation?"

Chen Yi took out her notebook, ready to take notes.

Yang Qian began to speak slowly.

"The theme is martial arts, and the overall style should be ink painting."

The characters are hand-drawn in 2D, while the scenes can be enhanced with 3D technology to improve their three-dimensionality.

In terms of character design, animal anthropomorphism is adopted...

As Chen Yi listened, his pen gradually slowed down, and his brows furrowed more and more tightly.

Wuxia?

Ink wash style?

Animal anthropomorphism?

None of these elements, taken individually, are particularly novel.

But how do you put them together and then create a competition entry in a short period of time?

"Regarding the number of episodes, I plan for 108 episodes."

Yang Qian added at the end.

Chen Yi stopped writing completely.

He looked up, his face etched with the word "impossible."

"Director Yang..."

He carefully chose his words, trying to be as tactful as possible.

"Excuse my bluntness, but your request is very creative."

"However, the script, storyboards, character design, music..."

These basic tasks alone require a lot of time, not to mention post-production.

Given our studio's current capabilities and the competition's timeline, I'm afraid... we won't be able to complete it.

He could immediately determine that this was an impossible task.

"Can't we even use AI to generate some of the materials? I see that AI painting is developing very rapidly now."

Yang Qian asked.

"AI can only serve as an auxiliary tool to save some basic labor time."

"But the core creativity, composition, plot pacing, and especially the ink-wash style and fighting tension you requested, AI simply cannot achieve."

Ultimately, it still depends on the creator's skill and a lot of manual adjustments.

Chen Yi explained that he felt Yang Qian might have oversimplified animation production.

"Is that so..."

Yang Qian nodded thoughtfully.

"I see."

Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the other party had given up.

To everyone's surprise, Yang Qian's next words were: "Then this project will be officially entrusted to your Bimoe team."

Chen Yi: ? ? ?

No, those were all reasons for refusing!

Why did you commission it?

"Director Yang, you..."

Chen Yi was both amused and exasperated.

"No need to be so quick to refuse, take a look at the pilot video I made first."

"Director Yang can do this too?"

"I know a little."

Yang Qian: This is a 2D animation drawing and production technology that can be redeemed using points.

Yang Qian smiled and pushed the tablet in front of him, on which a 30-second short video was playing.

Chen Yi looked at him in confusion.

Within seconds, his gaze was completely captivated.

The scene unfolds with towering mountains in the style of ink painting, creating a profound and evocative atmosphere.

Immediately afterwards, a lithe red figure darted through the forest, sword flashing as she clashed with her enemy.

The movements are incredibly fluid, and every frame is filled with the unique power and rhythm of martial arts.

The 2D characters and 3D backgrounds are perfectly integrated, retaining the dynamism of hand-drawn art while giving the scene a profound sense of depth.

The unique anthropomorphic animal designs are not childish at all; on the contrary, they exude a dashing and chivalrous spirit.

Thirty seconds passed in a flash, yet it seemed as if a magnificent martial arts world unfolded before his eyes.

Chen Yi was stunned, her mouth slightly open, unable to close it for a long time.

Wuxia ink painting style, 2D characters + 3D scenes, anthropomorphic animals...

All of Yang Qian's previous requirements were perfectly showcased in this 30-second short film.

The quality, the finish, the unique aesthetic style.

It was better than all the so-called S-level animation projects he had ever worked on.

He turned his head sharply to look at Yang Qian, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Director Yang, do your employees know how amazing you are?"

This is no longer just a superficial understanding; it's clearly at the master level.

Yang Qian simply smiled modestly and said, "You flatter me, it's just a thought."

Regarding this project...

"We at Bimeng accepted!"

He was resolute, all his previous hesitation vanished, replaced by an irrepressible excitement.

He had a strong feeling that this animation would become a legend!

"very good."

Yang Qian nodded in satisfaction and took out a thick stack of documents from the side.

"This includes the complete script, detailed storyboards, character design collection, and some music demos."

Chen Yi stared blankly at the thick stack of documents and files once again.

So well prepared?!

Why outsource it then? The Land of Light is perfectly capable of doing it itself!

Finding an outsourced contractor is completely unnecessary.

"Director Yang, you've made such thorough preparations, why don't you just acquire our Bimeng company instead, so you won't be accused of outsourcing?"

Chen Yi said something jokingly.

He does not mean that.

Yang Qian's eyes lit up: "You can do that? How come I didn't think of that?"

Chen Yi: "Huh???"

The next day.

The lobby of the Land of Light animation studio.

Yang Qian: "Welcome, new students, to the Kingdom of Light Animation Studio and become the first batch of core members of our 2D animation department."

A round of enthusiastic applause erupted.

Chen Yi: ...

Original Pen Moe Animation Team: I took a nap and found that the boss had changed. Amazing.

Yang Qian directly acquired the entire Bimoe Animation Studio.

Of course, this wouldn't have been possible without the help of Li Lin, the park manager.

Li Lin: His merits and fame remain hidden.

Chen Yi sighed.

Oh well, it doesn't matter where I work.

With such an awesome and dedicated boss, at least I don't have to collect toilet paper from other worlds anymore just to make a living.

Moreover, he genuinely wanted to recreate the animation created by Yang Qian.

He quietly moved closer to Yang Qian and asked in a low voice.

"Director Yang, what's the name of our animated film?"

I was so shocked yesterday that I forgot to ask this most crucial question.

Its name is "Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit: The Seven Swordsmen".

That afternoon, on the Starlight Video platform.

A Guang's account released a teaser poster for "Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Seven Swordsmen".

Silhouettes of the Seven Heroes in ink-wash style.

Slogan: "Legend of chivalry, the winds of change are rising again."

The poster immediately sparked a new wave of discussion.

Executives from several film and television companies who had been closely monitoring the movements of the Land of Light almost burst out laughing when they saw the poster.

"Martial arts? And anthropomorphic animals? Hahaha! What era are we living in that we're still playing this game?"

"A simplistic martial arts story aimed at children? It seems that A-Guang's skills are limited to tokusatsu; he falters when it comes to serious animation."

"He's run out of ideas, he's exhausted his tricks! Let's see how he gets out of this mess!"

"We've got it! We've got this in the bag!"

Mockery and pessimism filled the entire internet.

The Land of Light animation studio.

The 2D animation department has already begun intensive production of "Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Seven Heroes".

Yang Qian, as the founder of the animation, controlled all the art styles and storyboards.

Miriam Yeung: A disaster? I don't think so.

A combination of The Seven Heroes and Wandering the World with a Sword, is there really anyone who can beat it?
