My Animation Era

  Chapter 596 Ball Skill: Field! (seeking subscription)

  Maxima often exists, but bole does not often exist.

   There are still too few people who can discover the extraordinaryness of "Dragon Ball" in advance like Nishio.

  Most people are belatedly aware of the possible adaptation value of this comic under the premise that the "Dragon Ball" comic has already taken off.

  Unfortunately, it's too late.

  Even Nishio, who realized that "Dragon Ball" was extraordinary so early and tried to catch the leak, was rejected by Gu Miao, and these neon animation companies that realized it later were no exception.

  Gu Miao and Seto rejected more than a dozen animation companies from Neon in a vain attempt to win the right to adapt the animation of "Dragon Ball".

   It's not about money!

  This is different from Nishio’s previous attempts to pick up leaks. The current "Dragon Ball" comics have initially shown the potential for "hegemony". For this level of popular comics, everyone's quotations are not low.

  But Gu Miao just shook her head lightly.

   Selling the adaptation rights of "Dragon Ball"?

   It is impossible to sell, not in this lifetime. Because no one knows better than him what the IP of "Dragon Ball" really means.

  The "synonym" of neon anime!

   Created the golden age of neon hot-blooded Wang Daoman, the neon animation work with the greatest global influence and the most fans, none of them!

   It might even be bolder to say…

  The IP "Dragon Ball" has developed to the end, and it is no longer as simple as an animation work, but a cultural symbol and symbol.

  The value of animation IP like this can no longer be estimated with money.

   This is a cultural symbol and symbol!

   For example, this is like our domestic "Journey to the West".

  Don’t say that the original author Lao Wu is dead, even if Lao Wu is still alive, if he wants to sell "Journey to the West" to foreigners, can you see if he can sell it?

   Impossible!

  Although it is a bit outrageous to compare "Journey to the West" with "Dragon Ball", the meaning is the same. For Neon people, "Dragon Ball" is a cultural symbol and symbol, and it is no longer something that money can buy.

   Of course, this is the original.

  Wanbao version is now the manga has just become popular, the animation has not yet been broadcast, and the influence has not yet developed to the extreme, so it is too early to say anything about cultural symbols.

  But Gu Miao still won't sell it.

   No matter how much money is given, he will not sell it, because as long as he thinks that the neon animation of the level of "Dragon Ball" actually belongs to the IP of Wanbao, he is even the producer...

   Tsk tsk!

  This sense of historical achievement, is that something that money can solve?

   "There is still less money!"

   Ma Kui muttered secretly: "If the price is 10 billion to 20 billion, I think you will sell it faster than anyone else!"

  Gu Miao: "..."

  Can you say that?

  As his brother, his most trusted comrade-in-arms, how can you say that about him? Is he like this kind of person who has no bottom line?

"Yes, you are right!"

  Gu Miao stopped pretending, he is a person who has no bottom line, and the reason for the refusal was simply because the money was too little and he didn't like it.

  If, as Ma Kui said, the other party directly offers a price that he cannot refuse, let alone "Dragon Ball".

   What's the bottom line?

  Don't ask, if you ask, the price you offer is not high enough to make Gu Sanshui turn around for you.

   "But it's outrageous..."

   Ma Kui said in admiration: "Everyone said that the neon animation industry has generally been in recession in the past two years, and all companies are short of money. But I don't think their bids seem to be short of money?"

   "Then who knows?"

  Gu Miao shrugged her shoulders, and said indifferently: "The rotten boat still has three catties of nails! If you think that they are short of money, they may live better than you!"

   "Okay, let's not talk about them."

  Ma Kui shook his head, put aside the fight for the right to adapt the comics of "Dragon Ball" in Neon, and picked up a stack of sketches and said.

   "This is the first batch of sketches for the display of golf skills. Mr. Gu, can you see if there is anything that needs to be revised?"

   "Oh! Let me see..."

   Reaching out her hand to take the sketches from Ma Kui, Gu Miao flipped through them one by one.

  Spin serve!

   Snake Ball, Snake Ball Swing!

  Swallows return to their nests, giant bears fight back...

  These sketches are all simple "ball skills display" scenes drawn by the artist according to Gu Miao's description and explanation.

   Most of them are fine.

  There are only a few tricks and ball skills, the artist did not fully understand Gu Miao's meaning, and the painting was somewhat beyond his expectation.

   Say, Domain!

   This trick was used by Echizen Nanjiro and Tezuka Kunimitsu in the original book, and it was a super cool and powerful skill in the early stage of "The Prince of Tennis".

  Probably, by applying rotation to the shot, the tennis ball returned by the opponent is always within one step of the opponent.

  After performing this skill, you don’t need to run to catch the ball, you just need to stay right behind the court and change your hitting posture slightly.

   The first step in fantasy tennis?

  Anyway, the principle is like this, the explanation is quite abstract.

   That's not the point!

  Field's trick is outrageous, it has nothing to do with Gu Miao. What he really cares about is how to present the perfect "field" effect with the screen?

   "Wrong drawing here..."

  Gu Miao pointed to the tennis ball in front of Zhong Guoguang in the sketch and said: "The tennis ball hit back by the opponent does not come directly towards Zhong Guoguang, but flies to the left and right baselines first, and changes direction in the air to be absorbed by the domain."

  He gestured with his hand.

  Probably means that the opponent knows that the domain move is difficult to deal with, so when they counterattack, they all hit the diagonal bottom line, the furthest distance from Zhong Guoguang.

   As a result, when the ball flew halfway, it suddenly made a sharp turn, was instantly absorbed by the field, and flew within one step of Zhong Guoguang.

   This is not realistic enough!

   But there is no doubt that such skills look good. As for whether the reality can be displayed, what does it matter to Gu Miao?

   What's more, compared to those outrageous skills such as light hitting and dark hitting, Gu Miao feels that "field" is quite conservative and reasonable.

   "Want to add a little special effect?"

   "Add some wind, swirling wind!"

  Gu Miao rubbed her chin, carefully recalling the skill that once amazed him and made him still fond of it many years later, she suddenly said.

   "By the way! Remember to take a close-up of the tennis racket when performing this trick! Let the audience see that the tennis ball has a strong spin when it is hit..."

   These are routine operations!

  Actually, Gu Miao originally wanted to add some cool special effects to Wanbao's version of "Field" to make this trick look more handsome.

   After all, killer tennis!

   I don’t care about light effects or something, I always feel that your trick is not very powerful.

   But he thought about it later...

  What special effects do you want? Echizen Minamijiro, as a figure with the ceiling of combat power, does he have any devastating special effects in the field?

   It seems that there is no such thing!

  Perhaps plain and unpretentious is the original appearance of the field. If any colorful glare is added rashly, it may become nondescript.

   Don’t scare me, I should just have a common cold, thank you for your concern. Anyway, dizzy and unable to sleep, I simply wrote two chapters for everyone to make up...
