Perfect Life

The first internal high-level meeting after Minghu Animation was officially established lasted for more than ten hours.

The meeting started at less than ten o'clock in the morning, and there was a half-hour break at noon. Everyone simply ate a lunch box in the conference room, and then continued the meeting. Then, the meeting continued until eleven o'clock at night.

Starting from the three documents prepared by Li Qian, starting from why foreign animations are strong, why domestic animations are weak, what must be learned from foreign animations, and what advantages must be preserved and carried forward in domestic animation production, everyone has a heated discussion. , debated, and in the end, everyone basically reached an agreement: the technology must achieve a comprehensive innovation, and the requirements must be based on the development trend of animation films in the next ten or even twenty years, that is, the comprehensive introduction of computer virtual generative technology.

But at the same time, insist on doing Chinese ink animation with its own unique style!

After the technical direction and artistic direction were determined, everyone started to discuss the technology and art of ink animation and paper-cut animation. Which ones must be retained, some need to be improved, and which ones should be Abandoned as appropriate.

Let's start a big topic, that is, "The choice of the future global aesthetic development of ink animation and paper-cut animation under the application of modern computer technology"!

The name is very long.

Things are also complicated.

There are too many professional issues involved. Even though Li Qian and Cao Zhan have done a lot of homework in advance, it is still too difficult to argue with top professionals such as Hong Yuan, Ma Aikui, and Hu Zongyi at this time.

However, the tide of the times is rolling forward, and the future direction represented by new technologies and new methods is indeed able to make better, more refined and more attractive things. Therefore, many things do not need much debate. An example If you do it well, you can make the most professional people speechless.

Of course, in the end, there were still many professional technical issues, and a result that both parties could agree and convince could not be discussed. Therefore, the debate had to be put on hold for the time being, and it was left to practice to end these disputes in the future.

It was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon, so the meeting was supposed to come to an end temporarily, but everyone was very interested in the story Li Qian had prepared called "Hulu Baby", so Ma Aikui led a conversation, and everyone was very interested. I quickly asked Li Qian about this story and script, and it quickly turned into a big discussion for everyone - different from the previous technical and theoretical things, the discussion here, Qi Jie, He Runqing can also be Interjection from time to time to participate in a few places.

So, the discussion went to the end, and when the meeting ended, it was already eleven o'clock in the night. Li Qian greeted everyone to go out for supper - well, in fact, we didn't even eat dinner.

The meeting was over, but everyone ate together, and it was inevitable to discuss while eating for another two hours.

But in this regard, the focus of Minghu Animation's next work has been determined.

Moreover, after a heated discussion, the group of people who were simply piled and grouped together gradually became acquainted with them, especially Hu Zongyi, a Northeastern faction, and Hong Yuan, Ma Aikui and other Jiangnan animation people, this When it is time to do it on a table, the original strangeness and politeness will become less and less.

Moreover, the attitude of the old man Hong Yuan seems to be gradually starting to lose his peculiar contempt for capitalists - not so friendly, but his tone has begun to be a lot more euphemistic and less aggressive.

Of course, this day's meeting is obviously just the beginning.

The World Cup is in full swing, and the gossip about He Runqing's birth of a daughter has been hotly hyped by everyone. Minghu Culture seems to be a little calm. Those who should be filming continue to film, those who should record should continue to record, and those who should be on the charts are still on the charts in the United States. On the side, it was like a firewood was set up under the stove, and a large pot of water began to emit a little heat, and it seemed that the pot was going to be opened at any time!

In the days that followed, Li Qian officially entered the first meeting of mountains and seas since he came to this time and space - there are endless meetings every day!

Because, Minghu Animation, which has been preliminarily integrated, began to run at full speed for the project "Hulu Baby"!

At this time, Minghu Animation has already entered a large number of equipment, but the equipment is only the basics, especially for computer equipment.

It is impossible for Minghu Culture to bypass the technical blockade that should be there.

The United States can sell you a lot of particularly advanced equipment, but with high-end equipment, it does not mean that you can make the same things as others.

The so-called virtual generation of animation requires hardware and more software.

But for software, people will only give you the most basic graphic files, and if you want to buy it, no company will sell it to you!

So, how to use this batch of equipment that has been bought? Play their due strength and role? This requires the company's scientific and technical personnel and animation designers to cooperate collectively to research, and to cooperate with many research institutes and universities to develop their own set of advanced graphics technology.

Then, this is not the most difficult point. The most difficult thing is, how to combine the previous hand-made technology of ink animation with the virtual generation of computer technology?

This is almost exactly the same situation that the special effects department of Minghu Culture faced in the early days of its establishment.

Of course, Li Qian and Cao Zhan are basically unable to get involved in these technical things. They can only look at the final results, and put forward correction opinions again and again, and then put forward stricter requirements every time!

Then, of course, the special effects department of Minghu Culture specially dispatched more than a dozen people to come over and collaborate with them to tackle key problems. Because of their rich experience in special effects production, the progress here has been greatly accelerated!

And the most specific thing that Li Qian needs to grasp is, as the director of the first domestic animated film "Huluwa", which is about to be produced, what kind of expression style does he need? What kind of style should the landscape, scenery, and even the images of the characters be?

These things can only be gradually polished out in the meeting again and again.

Li Qian diligently described what he was thinking, and even repeatedly painted the picture he wanted by himself, while a large number of senior animators in the company, such as Hong Yuan, Ma Aikui, Hu Zongyi, etc., tried their best to understand and understand What Li Qian wants, he will do his best to make them!

The whole process is full of thinking, arguing, discussing, and even arguing!

Then, although slowly, the entire Minghu Animation, as well as the various clues of the core project "Hulu Baby" that everyone in Minghu Animation revolves around, is still advancing rapidly.

You know, this is almost starting from scratch again, from scratch!

Difficulties have been overcome one by one, and semi-finished products have been created again and again. The virtual ink animation still has many shortcomings. The design of the gourd doll with square head, square face and square skull is still being criticized by many people for being too ugly, and Li Qian On the one hand, I want to try my best to keep the original flavor of the "Hulu Brothers" in my mind, and on the other hand, I know clearly that the style of paper-cut animation will adapt to another time and space in the 1980s and 1990s. Criticizing the audience may not be suitable for the audience after 2000 in this time and space.

More importantly, this animation is an inspiration to go global, it is for children and adults around the world to watch, and it is an inspiration to create China's first global animation image.

Therefore, the shape of the version of the gourd doll in my mind should be discarded. At best, it can only preserve the look and essence as much as possible.

And then... time flies.

This time, time really flies.

Li Qian was completely immersed in it, thinking, discussing, arguing and trying to express every day, his whole body and mind was completely occupied by the image of the gourd baby and their stories.

Other things, he almost all forgot!

On July 12, the 31-day World Cup in China officially ended, and the French football team in its peak state won the first World Cup in their history.

At the closing ceremony of the World Cup, the four beauties made their debut again, but this time they replaced the world-class singer Liao Liao as the lead singer, and once again dedicated two songs to fans around the world.

During the World Cup, the oriental women's singing group Rose Power, which became popular all over the world, was also invited to take the stage again and sang their two songs that are currently popular all over the world - "annebe" and "Nobady"!

With the end of the World Cup, the football craze gradually faded, and Li Qian devoted himself to Minghu animation and his first animated film.

So, unknowingly, the time came to August.

The second installment of the Wong Fei-hung series, "Once Upon a Time as a Man of Wong Fei-hung" directed by Zhao He, has officially been completed.

With the completion of this film, the main shooting team of Minghu Culture, who has been working continuously for more than half a year, finally got their first long vacation this year in this hot weather.

Of course, as the director Zhao He, it is impossible for him to be idle.

The best is to rest for a few days and slow down. Then, in the editing room of Minghu Culture, there will be one more person-Han Shunzhang has finished the later stage of "Princess Princess Huanzhu Part II" and is currently editing "Love". In Deep Rain, Jin Han was editing Peacock, and Zhao He was about to start editing and producing Wong Fei-hung's Man Becoming Self-improvement. For the first time in history, Minghu Culture's editing room was operating at almost full capacity.

At the same time, there are some people who cannot be idle.

For example, Lu Lingxi, after the completion of "Huang Feihong's Man Becoming Self-improvement", she returned to Shuntian Mansion. She also rested for three days, and then went to the company to say hello to Qi Jie and Han Shunzhang, and then went out again, this time , she was invited by Sun Yuting to help her and assist her in the filming of "The Third Part of Princess Huanzhu".

Don't doubt Sun Yuting's ability, let alone her desire to control. In fact, the reason why Lu Lingxi was invited over was not someone else. Of course, the two had a good relationship, and they were considered to be from the same family, but more To a certain extent, it is mainly because Lu Lingxi's always low-key but delicate style of doing things makes Sun Yuting think that she can be her best assistant!

And in fact, speaking of ability, Lu Lingxi will definitely not be weaker than her!

In addition to Lu Lingxi, there is another person who obviously doesn't want to rest, and that is Feng Bicheng. After the production team was finished, he returned to Shuntian Mansion and assisted Zhao He to settle everything in the crew, and then he only went back to rest for a day. The next day, he returned to the company and started to work. I heard that Li Qian was always busy at Minghu Animation recently to make cartoons, and he also ran over to "help" with "high interest".

Of course, being busy can't help, but after staying for the past two days, Li Qian, who has been immersed in a state of ecstasy, finally noticed him who was always dangling in front of him, and he finally got what he wanted.

A script called "The Big Shot".

I made an agreement with Li Qian to have a deep talk in a few days. Feng Bicheng didn't help anymore. He put the script in, and Le Dian Dian returned to the leisure rooftop on the ninth floor of Minghu Culture.

Watch it three times!

He watched and laughed—sometimes with a puff, sometimes with a laugh, and sometimes twitching in the wicker chair he was in.

Every Minghu employee who came up to take a break and have a cup of coffee and chat for a while was curious when they saw his appearance - Sun Hua had a good relationship with him. He came over and asked what was going on~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Feng Bicheng just laughed and didn't explain, and the script in his hand was covered tightly.

The script is not too long, and the characters are not too many, but with just such a script, he was stunned to read it with relish for an entire afternoon - as many as seven or eight times!

In the evening, he grabbed a few bites of food at a random place, and pondered while eating. After thinking about it, he felt that the script was so good and fit his appetite, it was almost like Li Qian tailor-made it for his own style. Generally speaking, it is a rare opportunity, and you must not miss it, let alone be blinded.

Moreover, before meeting and talking with Li Qian, you must do enough homework. When you meet and chat, you must make Li Qian feel confident in himself!

Others do not understand, but he does.

A person who has succeeded, but has fallen again, and can hardly get up after falling, understands the importance of opportunities better than anyone else.

In terms of opportunity, a good story, a good script, and the strong support of the boss behind it is the best opportunity - as long as this script is won, as long as Li Qian has full confidence in him, He will have the best chance like this!

So, before the meal was over, he took out his phone and called his father.

Feng Yumin jumped to Yuan Ke's Jinghua Film, and the first TV series after opening his own studio has been completed, and it is currently in Shuntianfu.

Then, he called and confirmed that his father was at home, and Feng Bicheng couldn't care about eating anymore. He said to his father on the phone, and asked his mother to make a bowl of noodles for him at home.

How about asking for a monthly pass from all of you?
