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

"I'm going to get back in the car now, and I have to report it to the hostess. Didn't you realize that you are still henpecked?"

Xu Xuan said seriously while driving: "Aunt Lou, let me tell you, this is not henpecking, this is respect! Xiaoyu won't say anything if you don't call, and besides, you may not be able to tell, You and Xiaoyu have similar tastes, both smell of heather perfume."

Lou Chao ignored Xu Xuan's flattery and asked Xu Xuan: "You haven't said what happened to that robot."

Xu Xuande would say something to the east or something to the west, but he wouldn't say anything.

Lou Chao also saw that the car was heading towards the Future Group, so he was not in a hurry.

The three of them came to the Future Group. Xu Xuan asked the secretary to go and play with Huang Xiyun, and then took Lou Chao to the level of animation creation.

The Future Group building is now the group's property, with animation production on the fifth floor.

As soon as you open the elevator, you can see the logo of two rabbits and a five-pointed Red Army hat.

Lou Chao smiled: "Is this "That Rabbit"?"

Xu Xuan nodded: "Yes, after all, I started making cartoons with "That Rabbit That Year", so little sister Zhou regarded the rabbit as the mascot of future animations."

Further inside, there was a group of young people sitting in the hall, arguing over a pile of papyrus.

When Xu Xuan and Lou Chao walked in, the group didn't say hello, and no one even paid attention to them.

Xu Xuan introduced: "All employees and senior management of Future Animation are fresh university graduates, and there are also some who are more experienced, but they all tend to be younger. The oldest is Miss Zhou, a thirty-year-old old girl. .”

"I heard someone say I'm bad when I just came here." Zhou Xiaozhou walked out of the office with a smile.

First say hello to Lou Chao, and then take Xu Xuan and Lou Chao to visit Future Animation.

This is Lou Chao's first time coming to the animation department of Future Group, which is very novel.

Because there are cartoon and animation images everywhere and the working atmosphere is very comfortable.

There is almost no division between superiors and subordinates here.

Zhou Xiaozhou explained: "Actually, the atmosphere in the animation department has been like this since the first batch, after Gan Tiantian and the others came. As long as the boss gives the task, you will do it according to the task. If you have any comments or changes, you can Send it to your boss, and then you can decide to make changes. Maybe you can finish the work at hand and then change your ideas."

"Then everyone studies and conceives together, and that's about it."

Lou Chao nodded. There are many differences between private enterprises and state-owned enterprises, with pros and cons.

Like now, when Xu Xuan came, none of these young people got up to say hello except for a few.

After visiting the entire floor for a while, Lou Chao sighed: "The younger company is more energetic. The entire animation department has an atmosphere more like a university club, and there will be no chaos, which is good."

Xu Xuan laughed and said, "I'm just kidding. Who dares to disobey orders and talk about bonuses? A task is a task. If you have good ideas and ideas, you can report them to the boss, but the task given to you must be completed."

Lou Chao smiled and nodded.

Yes, any boss who only talks about his ideals without giving bonuses is a hooligan!

Then, the three of them entered the innermost part of the entire floor.

It's relatively quiet here, and it's not as lively as outside. Instead, it feels like a core place inside, where no one is allowed to enter.

"This is the production room, and you can't enter without a specific work license and identity." Zhou Xiaozhou said: "So, most of the people who can be here have been here since the year Future Animation was established. "

Gan Tiantian came over at this time.

This graduate, no, she graduated three years ago.

When she was at Songjiang Academy of Fine Arts, she was still worried about choosing art, and her family didn't understand her.

Later, he was tricked by Xu Xuan and gradually became the creative and art director of Future Animation.

At the same time, she is also the art director of "WALL-E".

She is only twenty-six years old!

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Lou, please come over here." Gan Tiantian took over the guidance work, and the four of them entered a broadcast room.

There was a large 3D screen inside. After the four people walked in, Gan Tiantian turned off the lights and started playing clips from "Wall-E."

A rough outline of the story, and some clips of animation special effects.

Lou Chaoyue looked more and more frightened.

At first, she thought that animated movies were 2D, and there were also 3D animated movies in China, with Huo Siqing being the best representative.

But it’s the first time I’ve seen such a high-resolution and clear picture like “WALL-E”, at least it’s the first time I’ve seen a domestic animation.

So Lou Chao understands why Xu Xuan said that this movie will change the pattern of Chinese-language movies.

If this is released, the animation effects alone will attract a large number of fans.

Maybe it can compete with foreign animated movies.

Especially the content of this movie is very loving and has a very humanistic perspective.

Think about it, old robots are almost abandoned by people, while new and updated robots are more beautiful than WALL-E and have more functions.

This shows the gap between one generation and another, but in the end, it was the old robots that started the process and successfully brought plants to humans.

The interpretation here can be multifaceted.

But the content of the story will definitely be favored by young people.

After taking a rough look, Lou Chao followed Xu Xuan out of the screening room, and then sighed slightly: "No wonder you have so much confidence in releasing it during the Spring Festival. This movie is really good."

"Global release?"

Xu Xuan shook his head: "It will be released in China first, and the English version will have to wait."

"why?"

Xu Xuan looked at Gan Tiantian, who explained: "Mr. Xu wants to submit this film to the Annie Awards."

After hearing this, Lou Chao thought for a while before he understood what the Annie Award was.

The International Animated Film Association, the world's highest honorary award for animated films, may have to add another one, but the Annie Award is definitely the most authoritative award for animation.

Lou Chao stopped asking about these things and instead asked: "Besides "Wall-E", do you have any other works? I mean movies."

There are many future animated comics, among which "Transformers" and "Resident Evil" are the most representative ones.

But this is my first time getting involved in movies.

Xu Xuan thought for a while: "Of course, there are also "Super Marines", "Havoc in Heaven", "Nezha Haohai", etc. that are currently in production. They will probably be released next year and the year after that. There are also A lot of scripts are being launched one by one.”

Lou Chao nodded with satisfaction: "Isn't this thing very expensive?"

Zhou Xiaozhou immediately complained: "Not only is it a waste of money, if it weren't for the support of comics such as "Resident Evil", animation will go bankrupt in the future. The money mobilized from the headquarters has already exceeded 500 million, and we are all a little ashamed." .”

Xu Xuan waved his hand: "Whether animated films make money or not is secondary. The ultimate function of a film is its influence!"

"That's good." Lou Chao really liked Xu Xuan more and more: "Take me to see other projects of your group?"

"Let's go, let me show you a big guy!"

Lou Chao: "..."
