My Animation Era

New year, new start.

  As early as a few months ago, Penguin officially announced the animation and film adaptation plan of many of its "Internet IP".

  Gu Miao originally thought that the animation adaptation would be the first to come. After all, relatively speaking, the difficulty of adapting a web article into an animation comic is easier than that of a film and television drama.

   It's just that no one thought of it.

   In the new year, Penguin is the first to offer an IP adaptation of web texts. It is not an animation or a comic, but a fantasy TV series in ancient costumes.

   "A Perfect World"!

   This is a big IP, with a large number of original fans and cloud readers, even a pure passerby like Gu Miao, who doesn't like to read fantasy online novels, knows the name of this novel.

   Are you going to engage in live-action dramas?

  What is the difference between this and the brave man who immediately went to challenge the ultimate big devil just after he left Novice Village?

   "The steps are a bit big..."

  After glancing at the cast, Gu Miao said that she was not optimistic about the prospects of this drama.

  Fantasy novels, especially fantasy online novels with a huge background setting like "A Perfect World", it is really not so easy to shoot the essence.

   Anime is more suitable.

   It's not that Gu Miao belittled the feasibility of filming fantasy fairy tale novels, he simply felt that it is very difficult to film and television works such as this kind of works with a huge world view and background setting system.

  It would be easier to talk about the world of low-level martial arts and micro-immortals like "A Thousand Bone Flowers" and "Langya Bang".

  But this is Gao Wu...

  The strong fight and whine and the universe is annihilated at every turn, so how do you show this effect?

   "Exactly!"

  Huang Kun agreed: "The scene that can be described by words may not be captured by the camera."

  This is the embarrassment of the web adaptation. The original author wrote very well and passionately, but the writing was too abstract. As a result, the director and screenwriter didn’t know how to convert the text into visual patterns during the filming process.

  Not only online novels, many literary works published in paper form will encounter the same problem when adapting them.

  So for the sake of safety, when adapting online novels, especially fantasy novels, it is best not to touch any film and television, and look for the path of animation and games.

   "Leave them alone."

  Gu Miao waved her hand and said, "Whenever they come up with the animation or comics of "Perfect Other World", it's not too late for you to tell me."

  Live-action video, even dogs don’t watch it!

  Besides, Wanbao has not set foot in the field of live-action film and television dramas. Penguin's "Perfect Other World" TV series has no influence on Gu Miao.

  He only pays attention to anime works.

  If it is an animation or manga of "Perfect Other World", then he will definitely cheer up and pay attention to the situation of this work at all times.

  Live-action dramas are fine.

  Even if it is as popular as the "Three-Body Problem" TV series, it has nothing to do with him. He is a toy dealer engaged in animation, so he has no reason to worry about live-action TV series.

  But he doesn't worry about it, and doesn't pay attention to the live-action drama "A Perfect World", which doesn't mean that other people think the same way.

  Haitian Film and Television.

  As the most famous film and television industry giant in China who has produced many popular TV series, they attach great importance to "A Perfect World".

  This kind of attention is, on the one hand, to give Penguin face, and on the other hand, it is because they also have a live-action film and television drama that will be broadcast soon.

  …

   "The Prince of Tennis" is coming out in a live-action version!

  The news jointly announced by Haitian Film and Television and Wanbao Animation has shocked countless passers-by and netizens.

  What the hell?

  The "Prince of Tennis" you are talking about is the cartoon that has tennis magic skills such as seamless clothes and flying swallows returning to the nest? How can this be a live-action version?

  Not only netizens are curious, Wanbao, as the copyright owner, is also curious about how Haitian Film and Television intends to shoot such magical skills as "Seamless Clothes", "Flying Swallow Returns to Nest", and "Snake Ball".

"How would I know?"

   Facing Mr. Gu's question, Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "They want to buy the authorization, and the price they paid is quite high, so can I not sell it?"

   "As for how they plan to make a live-action version after buying the copyright, I don't know..."

   Good guy!

  When Gu Miao heard this, she immediately became interested and said, "I remember that Haitian purchased the license for live-action dramas from us. Apart from "The Prince of Tennis", there is also "Detective Conan", right?"

   "Yes, and Conan!"

   "Have you filmed Conan yet?" Gu Miao was not that interested in the live-action version of Prince of Tennis, but was full of curiosity about the live-action version of Conan.

   "It's probably being filmed!"

   "I don't know the specific situation. I have to call and ask to find out." Lao Zhang explained to him, "I only know that the live-action version of "The Prince of Tennis" should be finished."

   "I don't know about this, I don't know about that, what is the use of you as a vice president?"

  Gu Miao scolded, feeling that asking for help is better than asking for herself, so she took out her mobile phone and called the person in charge of Haitian Film and Television.

   I learned it through inquiry.

  It turns out that the live-action version of "The Prince of Tennis" only has more than 30 episodes, and the plot is only from the preliminaries to the Jiangchuan Municipal Competition, not even the East China Competition.

  That’s why it’s so fast.

  As for the leading actors, they are also well-known young and capable actors in the circle, and their main focus is a "youth fan".

  The live-action drama "Detective Conan" is quite troublesome. According to the person in charge of Haitian Film and Television, this drama encountered many difficulties during the filming process. The young actor who will play the protagonist "Conan" has not yet been finalized.

   "Then what's the situation with you guys? Are you going to crash with Penguin's "Perfect World" TV series?"

"Maybe!"

  Haitian was relatively calm, probably because he had prepared enough mentally, and said to his good brother Gu Miao: "It's really inevitable, so we can only touch it head-on."

   Regardless of winning or losing, at least you can't lose face.

  Penguin is an Internet social giant? So what! Who is not a giant anymore? No matter how bad Haitian was, he was considered number one in the film and television industry, so it was impossible for him to be afraid of Penguin.

   "Then you all work hard!"

   Gu Miao, who doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, encourages the other party with a mentality of eating melons, and asks about the shooting methods of those tennis prowess in "The Prince of Tennis".

   "Special effects, I added special effects!"

   "With just one touch from Duang, the tennis ball will shine, and it can also make sudden stops and turns in the air. Isn't it amazing?"

   "Very... very powerful!"

  Gu Miao looked a little disappointed.

  He thought that when Haitian was shooting these ball skills, he used real slow motion shots!

   I didn’t expect to use CG special effects.

  This is meaningless...

   After all, the special effects are opposite, and it all depends on who has the better special effects and who has the brighter glare, and there is no technical content at all.

   Those who know are playing tennis, but those who don’t know may think that this is where the restricted area comes from.
