To save the music festival, winning the championship is not too much.

Essence Films.

The entire floor of the rented office building has a clear division of labor. Xu Xuan visited the production department, promotion department, dubbing studio, audit and legal department, props team, director team and other departments.

However, what Xu Xuan mainly visited today was the animation department.

The director of the animation department is a 30-year-old woman named Zhou Xiaozhou. She is a very capable woman with short hair. She is wearing a gray and white professional attire. Her short hair is a bit disheveled and she is sitting on her desk. She seems to be drawing something.

After Shi Xiaojie and Xu Xuan came in, Zhou Xiaozhou just looked up at his boss and Xu Xuan, then pointed to the sofa and motioned for them to sit down, and continued his work.

After Shi Xiaojie and Xu Xuan sat down, they introduced: "Xiao Zhou graduated from the European Sudelaine Academy of Fine Arts, where he studied for a master's degree and a Ph.D. Later, he graduated and went to Eagle Country, but he was not taken seriously there, and then he was ignored by me and you. Senior brother dug it over."

"Nowadays, Xiao Zhou is in charge of the best animated films and cartoons. If you want to make cartoons, you can cooperate with her in the future."

Xu Xuan nodded and looked at Zhou Xiaozhou again.

This woman is a bit careless and has nothing to do with delicate women, but it seems that it is precisely because of this carefree personality that the short-haired Zhou Xiaozhou looks wild and full of heroic temperament. The feeling is that of a heroine who is as good as her men.

Xu Xuan knew that in the art industry, especially in the animation industry, many people would forget to eat and sleep. In another time and space, Xu Xuan had seen a piece of news.

When an animation team is at a certain point in public relations, they can even eat and sleep in the company for seven days, waiting until this stage is overcome before taking a vacation.

Therefore, people like this always seem to be awe-inspiring.

Shi Xiaojie said: "Our company's animation department has been established for about five years and has a total of two movies and three cartoons. However, due to the influence from foreign countries and Hong Kong, the results have not been very good, especially those two movies. Can save money."

Xu Xuan glanced at Shi Xiaojie in slight surprise, and the latter explained with a smile: "Even if it doesn't make money, a company cannot do without the animation department, otherwise the whole company will seem to be missing something. Animated movies will definitely occupy a large share in the future. At the box office, if there is no animation department, it will be difficult to make progress in the film industry in the future."

Xu Xuan nodded. In fact, it was very difficult for Shi Xiaojie to think like this.

Many domestic companies only focus on short-term interests. Who would think about making money in the next few years?

Therefore, when Xu Xuan was investigating this matter in the past few days, he found that many film companies did not have animation departments, which surprised Xu Xuan.

Because in this time and space, animated films have begun to bloom. Although Shi Xiaojie's animated films have not made money, there are still domestic animation giants.

At this time, Zhou Xiaozhou raised his head, cleared the things on the table and said, "Boss Shi, I have been working overtime for three consecutive days. Are you here now to see if I am diligent or not?"

Shi Xiaojie stood up, and Xu Xuan also stood up. Then he heard Shi Xiaojie say: "This is my junior brother. He has a cartoon he wants to make. Let's see if you have time..."

"No time!" Zhou Xiaozhou waved his hand directly and said: "Our animation department is currently producing an animated series, and it is almost finished. We don't have time for you to play at this time."

Shi Xiaojie was a little embarrassed. He knew Zhou Xiaozhou would say this, but since he agreed to Xu Xuan, Shi Xiaojie explained: "Don't worry, it's just an animated short film with a few frames per second. One episode lasts three to five minutes, which is about ten episodes." It seems like one month is enough."

Although Zhou Xiaozhou speaks straightforwardly, he does not understand the world at all.

After she walked out of the desk, Xu Xuan realized that this woman had a good figure.

She looks 1.6 meters [-], but has a curved front and a curved back. Her figure can be said to be stacked with peaks. Coupled with short dry hair and a gray suit, Xu Xuan can even see her deep collarbone.

Because of her age, Zhou Xiaozhou is completely different from Yu Youchen and Song Jia. She is like a mature peach, rivaling Luo Qingxi.

Zhou Xiaozhou looked directly at Xu Xuan: "For a short film, it's not impossible, but the animators in the animation department are quite nervous at the moment. Can Boss Shi increase his overtime pay?"

Although he was looking at Xu Xuan, his words were intended to bring benefits to the boss Shi Xiaojie.

Shi Xiaojie said cheerfully: "How about the production fee of 50 yuan for my junior brother's cartoon?"

Xu Xuan glanced at Shi Xiaojie in astonishment upon hearing this.

Xu Xuan knew the ingredients of the cartoon he wanted to make, but Shi Xiaojie didn't.

An animation with a frame rate of 5 frames per second, an episode of 50 minutes, and only about ten episodes, the production cost of [-] is definitely too high for the animation technology in this time and space.

Xu Xuan understood that Shi Xiaojie just wanted to support him.

Zhou Xiaozhou's eyes lit up when he heard this, he pointed at Shi Xiaojie and said rudely: "This is what Boss Shi said, don't go back on it!"

"50 yuan is nothing. You can make it safely and boldly. I don't need to talk about the rest of the money, right?"

Zhou Xiaozhou nodded cheerfully. Xu Xuan's animation could not cost 50 yuan at all, because Jingjing Film Company not only has its own painters, compositions, 2D and 3D production parts, but also has a dubbing studio and other sound facilities. department.

If Xu Xuan went to another film company, 50 would definitely not be enough, but in a relatively large-scale film company like Jingjing, it really wouldn't be enough.

Therefore, the remaining money from the production fee was naturally divided equally among Zhou Xiaozhou's team, which was also used as overtime pay in disguise.

Zhou Xiaozhou stretched out his hand to Xu Xuan: "Book."

Xu Xuan took out a stack of A4 paper from his backpack. It was only a thin stack. The number of scripts proved Shi Xiaojie's words that the cartoon was very short.

After Zhou Xiaozhou took it over, he ignored Shi Xiaojie and the others.

Xu Xuandao: "Where to pay?"

Hearing this, Shi Xiaojie stared at Xu Xuan with wide eyes: "What fee should I pay?"

"50." Xu Xuan said.

Shi Xiaojie looked at Xu Xuan speechlessly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Boy, do you still have to pay for coming to Third Senior Brother? Are you not mistaken? If you let the master know, why don't you take my skin off?"

Shi Xiaojie said with a smile, but he actually thought so in his heart.

He has seen Xu Xuan's abilities before. Even though Shi Xiaojie can sometimes be irritable when speaking, he is determined to be a person who keeps secrets. This kind of personality has also led to his good reputation in film rights, so the company is now quite large. .

But Xu Xuan still shook his head and said jokingly: "Third senior brother, one code belongs to another code. If my animation becomes popular, who will own the copyright?"
