New Century Anime Warrior

It's Sunday again.

Since voicing the female lead in the pilot concept film last Sunday, Lin Lin seems even more motivated to urge for more updates. She even skips evening self-study sessions every night and comes directly to the multimedia classroom to supervise the work.

The female protagonist, originally named Nagamine Mikako but now modified to Hayashi Yoshimi, has some resemblance to Rei Ayanami's emotionless and emotionless personality in her character design.

This seemingly gentle yet strong-willed, low-energy quality inexplicably attracted Lin Lin, a high-energy, wealthy, and beautiful woman.

After reciting those lines, Lin Lin is now completely immersed in the full script of "Voices of a Distant Star".

Yes, it's the 25-minute version of the script.

In order to enable the voice actors to portray the relationship between the male and female leads more clearly and comprehensively, Si Hua first wrote a 25-minute script when writing the PV version script, and then selected key plot points to reorganize the content.

They also said that if "Voices of a Distant Star" is well-received, it will be further expanded into a complete short animation, which is the so-called full version of the script.

In fact, not only does Si Hua have a complete script, but he also listed the outline of the official novel. However, the content is too dry, so everyone thought it was the original outline of the complete script.

But none of that matters. What's most important now is to use this thirty-second teaser trailer to fool people.

For example, Evan Chen, the Asia Pacific A&R Innovation Content Strategy Manager at Universal Music Group.

This Taiwanese man, though not particularly tall, exuded a strong sense of elite status in his demeanor and attire.

He was sitting on a sofa in a small screening room, watching the teaser concept film "Voices of a Distant Star" brought to him by Si Hua.

This small screening room was built by Pan Lei specifically for Linzhong Luming Music Culture Co., Ltd.

This wholly-owned subsidiary of Nanlin Media Group is not only Nanlin Media's most powerful piece in the music sector, but also an important attempt for Nanlin Media to break through its development bottlenecks.

Nanlin Media was a product of the early restructuring of state-owned enterprises. Its predecessor was the audio-visual department attached to the printing plant of Guangnan Daily. After the administrative functions were separated, the Lin family introduced Hong Kong capital and private capital to establish Nanlin Media Group.

Although some privatization was carried out in order to promote market competition, the Quang Nam provincial government still retained a small portion of the shares, thus retaining many characteristics of the state-owned enterprise era.

These characteristics ensured that Nanlin Media possessed considerable advantages and influence in the era of traditional print media, and enabled it to achieve rapid development and expansion.

Now, it has become a cultural giant spanning newspapers and magazines, film and music production, owning its own television station, local cinemas, cultural and sports industrial parks, and radiating its influence to Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas.

Parentheses represent a cultural giant in Lingnan, Southeast Asia, and the Cantonese-speaking Chinese community.

Because it was both made and broken by state-owned enterprises, Nanlin Media has never been able to break free from the "Nan" in its name. Whether it's content output or cultural dissemination, it has always failed due to its strong regional focus.

With the rise of the Internet, especially the mobile Internet, Nanlin Media has once again sounded the horn of attack, and this time its weapon is the new audiovisual art such as music videos, animation, and games that are popular among young people.

Now, by chance, Nanlin Media has obtained an important opportunity to form a strategic partnership with Universal Music, and Nanlin's shareholders do not want to waste this opportunity.

Of course, Universal Music thinks the same way.

Si Hua inexplicably became the key to victory or defeat in the whole game. As long as "Voices of a Distant Star" has enough potential, these two cultural giants who are eager for super progress do not mind stepping on the gas pedal to the floor.

"Why not just make it into a short animation?"

Chen Yan watched the thirty-second animation five times before finally asking the question that terrified Si Hua.

"...Mr. Chen, you noticed?" Si Hua looked like he'd seen a ghost.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not a monster." Chen Yan knew from the young man's expression that there was a misunderstanding.

"I figured it out from the publicity plan that General Manager Pan gave me."

He took a tactical sip of water, paused, and said, "It's your Trinity propaganda plan."

"Phew." Si Hua suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "President Chen, you scared me to death just now."

"If I could figure out your ultimate plan from just those thirty seconds of animation, I wouldn't be in this position anymore."

"Mr. Chen is too modest."

Chen Yan ignored Si Hua's insincere politeness and continued, "The main problem is that your promotional plan is too confident and too ambitious..."

"Moreover, this kind of flow reservoir operation doesn't seem like the kind of thinking that involves making a quick profit and then withdrawing."

"You're just cultivating your reputation."

As expected of a young business elite who has become a senior leader in a multinational corporation, he saw through Si Hua's three-pronged narrative at a glance.

Indeed, they underestimated everyone.

"Mr. Chen, your insight is truly remarkable. Do you have any suggestions for the next step?"

"Getting back to the point, we've always admired the video you posted on Bilibili. Such top-notch audiovisual skills are very rare, especially when our team thought the creator would be very young. Our eagerness to find talent instantly burst out."

"I never expected that the talent I've been longing for would actually be right under my nose. Although I feel a little uncomfortable because I feel like I was pushed along by you and Nanlin Media, I haven't lost out by holding this audiovisual competition."

"Not only did we gain the friendship of Nanlin Media, but we also gained official exposure, which has a very positive effect on our work at Universal and on my personal work."

"By the way, I'm suddenly curious how you came up with the idea to create that video of drawing the warp drive by hand? The method isn't particularly novel, but your result was outstanding."

Chen Yan ignored Si Hua's topic and instead started talking about some trivial matters.

This left Si Hua speechless... Seriously, why do all of you executives like to beat around the bush so much?

What a nasty habit.

"Maybe it's talent? I can't really say for sure. I just felt that drawing could be like music, so I tried to combine them."

"Furthermore, I sincerely thank the audiovisual competition for giving us, the middle school students of Guangnan Province, a precious opportunity."

"I really don't deserve such high praise from your professional team for a high school student like me who was so ignorant and arrogant."

Isn't it just repetitive talk? What civil engineer doesn't know a few phrases like that?

But in Chen Yan's eyes, this was a bit strange.

When such slick, old-fashioned pleasantries came out of the mouth of a naive high school student, Chen Yan felt as if his spell of oppressive aura had been interrupted.

However, Chen Yan understood that Si Hua was subtly expressing his dissatisfaction.

You can talk to me about this, and I can talk to you about that.

Then the conversation shifted.

"You're welcome. By organizing this competition, we are responding to the call of the nation."

"Besides, Si Hua's abilities deserve this praise."

"And I've discovered that my team underestimated you, by a huge margin."

Oh? The reviews have been upgraded? Is this the prelude to unleashing an even bigger temptation?

Si Hua immediately understood the meaning behind Chen Yan's rhetoric.

As expected, Chen Yan threw out his trump card: "Judging from this short 30-second individual performance, you are definitely the biggest winner in this competition."

The author deliberately emphasized the word "personal work," indicating their belief that the submitted work was entirely created by Si Hua herself.

"We will provide all subsequent rewards as they are, and we can help you find a way to get recommendations for any top art university, both domestically and internationally."

"So, what's the price?"

"Become my partner, join the new sound state lab, and let's fight our way out."

"what?"
