The waistcoat has fallen off all the way, and behind the beautiful face is the trumpet
Chapter 269: Defamating the Chinese People
That night, Ye Sheng stayed up late to read the animation script.
Director Li and Mr. Zhou are indeed very discerning, and this is indeed a good story.
This is a realistic Chinese animation that conveys to the world China’s traditional culture and the Chinese people’s unyielding integrity.
After reading the story, Ye Sheng understood where the strange feeling in his heart came from.
The character modeling is indeed exquisite, and the color matching and costumes are impeccable.
The problem lies in the faces of the characters. The facial features of the protagonists in this anime look very weird.
Early the next morning, Ye Sheng found Professor Li and proposed his ideas to him.
"Professor, this anime has a very high intention. I know you have high expectations for this anime and want to convey something to the world through it. But why aren't the facial features of these characters designed to look better?"
Professor Li pushed up his glasses and explained: "I discovered this problem from the beginning. The reason given by the team leader was that if you want to win an international award, you must do this."
Ye Sheng immediately understood the reason, and an unknown anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
"Just because you want to win big awards and cater to Westerners, you have to vilify the image of our countrymen?"
Professor Li sighed: "If you win the grand prize, you can be seen by more people."
Ye Sheng disagreed and said: "Professor, everyone thinks this way. Therefore, the images of Chinese people in well-known cartoons are villains and buffoons. Over time, foreigners who have never been to China have a fixed mindset. This is completely the same as Your original intention of doing animation is the opposite.”
"Since we want to convey the spirit of the Chinese people, let's think outside the box. Don't aim to win awards, just make a good work. For a good work, even if you don't win an award, I believe your ultimate goal will be achieve."
"If in order to win the award, I have to cater to the judges and vilify the image of the Chinese people, I will not participate in this animation."
Ye Sheng's idea is actually very simple. What you do is to let the world see the spiritual integrity of the Chinese people and the rise of Chinese comics, so you should not be influenced by the West.
Your own animation, you still have to vilify yourself to entertain the West, just to win awards?
It simply goes against what the anime wants to express, so there is no need to make this anime.
Professor Li was silent for a long time and thought for a long time.
"I very much agree with your idea. I have also been tricked by so-called professionals. I am not here to win awards. Why should I vilify Chinese people and cater to the West? Ye Sheng, you are right."
"I felt uncomfortable when I saw those sinister features, so I asked them to redesign them."
Professor Li picked up the phone and thought for a while: "Forget it, I'd better go there in person."
Ye Sheng nodded: "I'll go with you."
The two of them arrived at the animation studio together, and everyone was busy.
"Everyone stop and listen to what I have to say." Professor Li clapped his hands and spoke loudly.
Everyone looked up at him.
"I thought carefully and decided to readjust the character's facial features."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a wail in the room.
"Huh? Professor, we've all started to exaggerate. If we readjust now, the efforts in the early months will be in vain."
"Yes, Professor, why do you want to change it suddenly?"
The person with the ugliest expression was Tang Hua, the team leader. He came back from Hollywood. As soon as he came back, he was introduced to the team by Zhou Hui.
"It goes without saying that something that was settled a few months ago suddenly changed. It must have been influenced by someone."
He guessed Ye Sheng at once, looked at Ye Sheng with a bad tone and asked: "Miss Ye, how much do you know about the animation industry?"
Seeing how strong the smell of gunpowder was, Li Zhi immediately smoothed things over: "It's none of Ye Sheng's business..."
"I was the one who suggested it." Ye Sheng stepped forward and looked straight at Tang Hua.
"Although I didn't know much about this industry before, since I agreed to Professor Li's participation, I will pay attention."
"I know you are reluctant to give up these months of hard work, but why are you making this anime?"
"To win a prize?" Ye Sheng looked around at everyone.
"I think at the beginning, your original intention was not to win the award. Instead, you wanted to prove that our Chinese comics can rise and convey something you want to express to the world."
"But if you look at it now, have you deviated from your original intention?"
"Do the characters and scenes you create have any influence from foreign animations?"
"Do our people really look like this? There are so many beautiful rivers and mountains in our country that are enough to shock the world. Why not use them?"
Ye Sheng asked several questions in succession, making a group of classmates frown in thought.
Tang Hua said angrily: "What do you know! Those judges don't want to see this! If you do this, it will be weird to win the award!"
Ye Sheng said coldly: "In order to win an award, you vilify the Chinese people? Do you want the whole world to think that we have such an ugly image?"
Tang Hua looked at Professor Li: "Professor, are you going to let a layman dictate here?"
Professor Li frowned and said, "What Ye Sheng means is exactly what I mean. The original intention of my students and I in preparing this animation was not to win awards."
Some students nodded slowly.
They are still students, and the patriotic impulse in their hearts is the most primitive.
In many foreign animations, the villains have oriental faces or speak Chinese. How can you not be angry?
"Change it, those little eyes really don't look like a good person."
One person spoke, and the other students all agreed.
The front image should not only be tall, but also have a sense of beauty.
Tang Hua pointed at a group of people, so angry that he couldn't speak clearly.
"You, you are so stupid! If you want to change it, you should change it! I won't change it!"
Ye Sheng looked at him: "Are you here to win the grand prize?"
"If I can't win the prize, will I hang out with you guys who don't know anything?"
Everyone's face darkened.
Although they have little practical experience, they are also leaders in this profession.
"I have been in this industry for decades. If you don't follow the market and rely solely on your own enthusiasm, it's strange that you can achieve results! I quit!"
He returned to China just to show his overseas colleagues that he could also win an award. Unexpectedly, at this time, this group of people would be held back after listening to a little girl's words!
Everyone quickly came forward to persuade him.
Even if their original intentions were different from Tang Hua's, Tang Hua's skills were indeed good. Without Tang Hua, their pictures would not be so beautiful and smooth.
Tang Hua was also convinced of this, and he confidently looked at Li Zhi and waited for him to make a decision.
Li Zhi kept looking at the faces of the protagonists on the computer screen.
Suddenly, as if he had made a major decision, he slowly said: "Change!"
Tang Hua kicked the chair away, broke away from everyone, and walked out the door angrily.
Passing by Ye Sheng, he glared at Ye Sheng fiercely and snorted coldly.
After Tang Hua went out, someone said, "Professor, if Brother Tang is gone, no one can guarantee the smoothness of the picture."
Professor Li was surprised: "You didn't learn from him?"
He gave Tang Hua more than half of the funds he applied for with the school, including his teaching fees.
"No, when Brother Tang is doing things, we are not allowed to get too close to him."
Li Zhi's face darkened. From this, it could be seen that Tang Hua did not really want to develop Chinese comics.
Ye Sheng said slowly: "It's okay, I don't believe that in such a big China, there are no talents better than him!"
Li Zhi said with a sad face: "But more than half of our funds have been spent, and we also need money to dig out talents!"
Do you talk about feelings with talents?
Without money, no matter how much you say, it will be in vain.
"Professor, you don't have to worry about funds." Ye Sheng said.
This incident started because of her, so she should contribute.
She also believes that once this anime is released, it will definitely arouse a huge response, and it is reasonable for the initial investment to be large.
Everyone looked at Ye Sheng happily.
Yes, I almost forgot, Ye Sheng is the daughter of the Ye family, how could she be short of money?
"Professor, brothers and sisters, if we want to do something, we must do our best! You don't have to worry about funding. If you have any talents in this field that you can recommend, you can also tell me and I will find a way to recruit them. Who says You can only win the award by vilifying the Chinese people? Let’s let our results speak for ourselves this time!”
Seeing how motivated she was, everyone's hope was rekindled.
Everyone recommended Ye Sheng to experts in the domestic animation industry.
Ye Sheng planned to find out the temperament of these powerful people before taking action.
It's easy to talk about feelings.
Their animation is full of Chinese sentiments.
It's even better to say that she loves money, she has it.
