My Animation Era

  Chapter 350 Selling shade (for subscription)

  It is better to have no books than to believe in books.

  When making animations, especially animations like "Avanti" adapted from folklore, we need to consider more than just "restoration".

   Still need to "filter" a bit...

  Liang Xiaodong said something that shocked Gu Miao.

  In the Western Regions, in Arabia, and in the entire Asia continent, all the folklore about "Avanti" has been sorted out, and about 4-5 million-word novels can be published.

   That's quite an astonishing number!

   Take a closer look at these folklore, and you will find a "dumbfounding" fact.

   That is a lot of "legends", all of which belong to the "rote" stitch monster, which is too outrageous and unreasonable.

  Liang Xiaodong gave a few examples.

  Among the several stories about Avanti circulated in a certain place, there is a legend about "Avanti wit fighting the devil".

  A legendary demon threatens the people of a small country and asks them to sacrifice a young girl every day. If they fail, he will show up and eat everyone.

  Everyone succumbed to the evil power of the devil and continued to pay tribute. As a result, in the end, there was only one unmarried princess left in the whole country.

broken!

  Avanti passed by Xiaoguo, and when he learned about this incident, his sense of justice was overwhelming, and he immediately thought of a way to punish the devil and save the princess...

  The more Gu Miao listened, the more something went wrong.

  Avanti is a legendary figure, this is true. But the legendary nature of Avanti is still at the level of "wise men".

   In other words, the legend of Avanti should not involve any "supernatural" power.

   All the demons have come out?

  Avanti, you are really good! Even demons have a way to deal with them. Do we have to subdue the "zombies" some other day, collect ghosts by the way, and beat up a dozen zombies?

   "Don't tell me, there really are."

  Liang Xiaodong suppressed a smile and said: "According to folklore in many places, the enemies that Afanti has fought against are all kinds of enemies."

   "What demons, monsters, orcs, even vampires and werewolves..."

  Gu Miao lives in Bengbu.

   What is this all about! Avanti is very powerful, but it can't be so fierce, right?

   Could this be the legendary "three people become tigers"?

  A good folklore, if it is passed on, it will turn sour. Avanti will soon become an Avatar, only missing underwear and running to save the world.

   "Don't learn from these."

  Gu Miao waved her hands and said, "It's too outrageous, and it's too deified for Afanti."

  Avanti is a wise man, a collection of all the good qualities of ordinary people, such as hard work, bravery, intelligence, and wit.

   At the end of the day.

  He is not a person on the "force side", but the "spiritual sustenance" used by the oppressed grassroots people at that time to get rid of the shackles.

   This is the part that Gu Miao deliberately emphasized.

  Avanti relies more on wisdom than force to solve problems. For the animation production team, this is a link that must be considered.

What?

  Master Bayi is bullying again? Avanti stepped forward, kicked out and wiped out the Dao, and Master Bayi was directly kicked out of the Milky Way?

   Tsk tsk tsk!

  Just thinking about it, if Avanti used force to solve the problem, Gu Miao immediately shuddered.

   Don't do this!

  As a wise man, he should have the demeanor of a wise man. Force is not the only way to solve problems, nor is it the best way.

"I see."

  Liang Xiaodong nodded, understood Gu Miao's concern and explained: "In the animation, we only focus on portraying Avanti's wisdom and bravery."

   "That's good, that's good."

  Gu Miao breathed a sigh of relief.

   Don't mention it, he is really afraid of people like Liang Xiaodong. If he gets him a muscular Avanti, he will slap anyone who is upset.

   To be reasonable, that would be a bit too much.

  Liang Xiaodong is a sensible and sensible person. He can tell which stories can be used and which stories cannot be used.

   But Gu Miao was still not at ease, so she asked Liang Xiaodong to let him take a look at the Avanti folklore stories after strict screening.

   "Selling Shade"!

  The first story that caught his eyes was the classic Shade of Trees.

   It is said that one day, the scorching sun was in the sky.

  The weather was so hot that the poor had to hide under a big tree to enjoy the cool. Unexpectedly, when Master Bayi saw it, he became greedy and came up with a plan to make a fortune.

   "This shade belongs to me. If you want to enjoy the shade, you have to pay for it!"

   Some poor people paid money, some had no money, and Master Bayi simply robbed them of all valuables.

   Until Avanti came riding a little donkey.

  When he learned of this, he immediately expressed that he would pay for the shade.

  The greedy Lord Bayi laughed at Avanti as an idiot in his heart, and sold the shade of the tree to Avanti without hesitation.

   As a result, the time came to the afternoon.

  The shade of the trees spread to Master Bai’s yard, even to the windows.

  When Afan presented the written evidence, indicating that the shade tree had already belonged to him, and Mr. Bayi had to pay money if he wanted to go home, Master Bayi admitted his cowardice, and paid the money to buy the shade tree back.

   Treat the person in the same way as the person.

   This is not the first time Gu Miao has read the story of "Selling Shade". He had seen this story on TV when he was very young.

   But every time I watch it, I have new insights.

  When I was young, I only felt that...

  (⊙o⊙) Wow! Afanti is so smart, he can punish Master Bayi like this, why didn't I expect it?

   Now?

   Looking at this story again, Gu Miao always felt that there was a strong sense of "sarcasm".

  Master Bayi, as a local rich man, would he be so stupid? Will you "build a letter" with a muddy leg like Avanti? Will he recognize the written evidence?

   Obviously, this is not possible.

  Then this story is full of idealization, who would have thought it up?

  The answer is obvious. The poor people who were bullied by the rich in those stories are the ones who came up with this story.

   In the story, the poor still have "fantasies" about Master Bayi, thinking that he is a person who keeps his promise? No matter how many evil deeds he has done, making him suffer is considered punishment?

  What a pity!

  Gu Miao shook her head, not letting her thoughts continue to diverge, otherwise he was afraid that his mind would get hot and he couldn't help but change the plot.

   What to change to?

  Of course, the ending is that Master Bayi went bankrupt and the poor turned their backs to make decisions!

  Unfortunately, this is not realistic.

   On the one hand, it does not conform to the prototype of the story. On the other hand, Avanti, who is the protagonist of the story, does not have this ability.

  The poor are oppressed and still fantasize that Master Bayi is a good man, and they still count on Avanti to help them. Is this kind of thinking really correct?

  Gu Miao didn't dare to say it.

  He simply felt that Avanti, as a legendary figure, might have pinned the hopes of many poor people.

  But shouldn’t fate be in your own hands?

  Always count on Avanti to help, he can help everyone, can he help for a lifetime?

   Avanti’s story, when I read it after I grow up, I can’t stand it at all...
