The Strongest Animator [Rebirth]

After confirming the specific animation plan, the next step is the personnel allocation link.

According to Muju Xing’s plan, the next stage of Huaying animation will focus on the two full-length animations of "Naruto" and "One Piece", as well as the original Detective Conan, which is expected to be released at the end of this year and next year's Lunar New Year. The theatrical versions of "The Magician at the End of the Century" and "Harry Potter: The Prisoner of Azkaban" are the main ones.

Two feature-length animations and two feature-length films.

Even for Huaying, which is rich in cartoonist resources today, it is not an easy task to complete these works in accordance with the requirements without affecting other links.

In this situation where the time itself is relatively tight, the arrangement of personnel is particularly important.

"The general situation is what you see." After everyone in the conference room finished reading the materials in hand, Mu Suxing continued this time: "If nothing else happens, my ideal "Naruto" and "One Piece" "The online time is this year's summer file."

"Time may be a little tight, you can choose the one you are more interested in between these two animations."

Thinking of the two animated films that will be released on Christmas and Lunar New Year, Shepherd thought for a while and added: "Of course, if you are more interested in "The Magician at the End of the Century" or "Prisoner of Azkaban" If so, you can choose to join the latter two production teams.”

Fang Lian raised his hand: "I have a question."

"what is the problem?"

"Needless to say about animated films, they must be based on the schedule. What I'm curious about is that "Naruto" and "One Piece" should also be big novels like "Detective Conan", right?" Fang Lian asked him : "If we choose one of these two films, can we still have a break in between?"

No wonder he asked.

For "Naruto" and "One Piece", which are obviously explosive and very long animation works, the production company will continue to serialize them in the form of weekly updates for the sake of profit, unless it is absolutely necessary.The animation production teams of "Naruto" and "One Piece" in the parallel world chose this way.

There are of course advantages to doing so.

When the popularity of animation works is stable, this kind of stable animation production, which is updated once a week, is equivalent to a stable income for the company.The audience becomes sticky to the animation itself during the chase, and naturally they will keep chasing after it.

The shepherd star understands the truth, but he is not going to do it.

He is going to stop properly.

Continuous updates are good, but the problem is that the length of these two animations and the production cycle brought to the production staff are too long. If you really want to pursue long-term continuous updates, this speed is enough. But the quality of the animation itself is hard to guarantee.

You know, the serialization time of these two animations is nearly ten years at least!

Under such a long production cycle and huge work pressure, it is difficult for even a senior cartoonist to bear it in the long run.

Not only that……

Shepherd star remembered the scene in another world.

In the parallel world, fans of the original comics are actually very dissatisfied with these two animated works.

It’s not that the production company intentionally cut corners, but, under the strict requirement of not being able to stop the update, nor keep up with the progress of the original manga, the production team can only force the plot, or add some original plots that are not in the original manga. So much so that the animation is serialized to the later stage, and more than half of the pages of an episode of animation may be a review of the previous situation.

As for the original plot of the animation group, either the characterization is relatively unsuccessful, or the setting in the plot is contrary to the later plot in the original manga, which caused the entire animation to fall into an embarrassing situation of inconsistency.

If things go on like this, fans of the original comics will naturally complain deeply.

It is obviously such an excellent comic work, but the long-form animation after the adaptation is getting more and more broken with the serialization. Can the fans not be angry?

This is also the reason why the shepherd star gave up the continuous weekly update.

Compared with the parallel world that is animated simultaneously when the manga is serialized, although Huaying animation does not have the trouble of catching up with the plot of the manga, but for the quality of the animation itself, when it is time to stop, it is natural to stop.

Therefore, facing Fang Lian's question, Shepherd Xing said affirmatively at this moment: "Of course."

"The specific frequency and period of stopping the update will be determined according to the actual serialization progress of the animation. What is certain at present is that there will definitely be a rest time for everyone in the middle," Mu Suxing said frankly: "This is also for the animation. For the sake of its own quality."

With the guarantee of the Shepherd Star, everyone no longer hesitated.

"Then I will choose "Naruto". I am more interested in this subject."

"I choose "One Piece"! I used to want to do similar pirates, the sea and other themes, but unfortunately this theme is too cold, and there is no suitable plan, so I let it go. Now I finally have a chance to realize my dream!"

Fang Lian, who was still struggling with Wen Feihang just now, hesitated for a while, and finally shook his head: "I'd better choose "Harry Potter: The Prisoner of Azkaban"." Although "Naruto" is good, However, it is 2D animation after all, and the development direction he yearns for is technology flow such as CG and VR.

Choosing the Harry Potter series is also a valuable opportunity for him to exercise.

Shepherd Star did not delay too long in this link.

After preliminarily determining their respective choices, the Shepherd Star quickly shifted its attention to other departments.

He first went to the comics department and had a chat with the author who is serializing the infinite stream comics. , settings related to Huaying theme park can be properly introduced.

Not to mention, Huaying Theme Park has a haunted house.

According to Musuxing's vision, the theme of Huaying Theme Park has always been fixed on "Two-dimensional". The works are updated and updated, and the haunted house is of course no exception.

The theme of the first issue of Huaying Haunted House is "The Witch's House", which has countless "dead souls" under the sword not long ago.

After the visitors of Huaying Theme Park have almost had enough of the "Witch's House" themed haunted house, the theme park at that time will naturally update the theme of the haunted house.

After the manga department, there is the video game department that Mu Suxing made an appointment in advance.

Just as Huaying promised when it acquired Thorn Interactive Entertainment a few years ago, Huaying Animation will not force Huaying Games to produce any specific games, but in the same way, Thorn Interactive Entertainment wants to use Huaying’s investment as an investment. The game also needs to be approved by the head office before it can get the investment money.

When Mu Su Xing opened the door and came in, several people in charge of Huaying Entertainment were gathered together, discussing a new game that was going to be submitted for review tomorrow.

"Is this data too outrageous?"

"If you ask me, we shouldn't be realistic in this game. Although the game is not equal to reality, wouldn't it be embarrassing if you get slapped in the face? I heard that the fans of many teams are also very cruel. One set of character values ​​is unscientific, I'm afraid they will all be sprayed to death, right?"

Because it was in his own studio, the people in the game department didn't intend to lower the volume on purpose. Therefore, just as Mu Suxing came in from the outside, he listened to their discussions verbatim. After a while, he wondered: "What kind of game actually involves reality?"

Considering that his boss will see the full picture of the game plan in front of him sooner or later, Jiang Yucheng didn't mean to hide it when he saw that the other party asked about it, and immediately said frankly: "This is a simulation management game with the theme of e-sports. .” Then introduce the general gameplay to Shepherd Star.

Shepherd star listened for a while, then understood what he meant.

The game is called "Champion Manager". As the name suggests, in this game, the player will play the role of the manager of the e-sports team. The gameplay includes buying and selling players during the transfer period, leading the players to play games, handling games, Incidents outside the game, etc.

In short, all the gameplay in the game will completely simulate the real team management. Players can lead the team to win the championship every season through their own efforts, and build their own dynasty; they can also cultivate strength and commercial value The co-existing star team has cultivated the team into the world's number one giant.

The core of the dispute among several people is that in order to increase the sense of substitution of the game, the setting of this game is not empty, but completely based on reality.

in other words.

In the actual Bluestar e-sports professional league, all professional teams, players and even club managers who can be named or not, will exist in this game.After the game is released, the game expansion will be updated within one real season.

At the same time, players have many choices.

For players, they can either choose their favorite team, help their natal team win in the game, and realize the regrets that are destined to be impossible in reality in the game; they can also choose a transparent team that is unheard of in low-level leagues. The league began to climb up step by step, and felt the fun of developing a small team from scratch.

Such a game is certainly fun, but it also has drawbacks—as they said during the discussion, almost every character in the game exists in real life.

Since it is a character, it must have a value.

You set this character's command ability to 200, and that character's command ability to 150. Will the fans and the players themselves be happy?

Mu Suxing thought for a while, and said, "It doesn't really matter."

Different from the parallel world, in Blue Star, as a kind of sports competition, the popularity of e-sports is almost only below that of football. The official attitude towards these derivatives is actually similar to that of the professional football league in the parallel world. The look and feel of this type of game is about the same.

Not only is it not disgusting, sometimes, for players with outstanding stats in the game but average fame in reality, they will investigate a little bit, and in turn use the game stats as a reference for reality.

Mu Suxing remembered the e-sports novel called "Full-time Master" that was very popular in the parallel world. After thinking about it, he decided to remind the other party a few words: "Actually, compared to character data, I think you can consider Set up some more humane details and use them as the core selling point.”

"Human details?" Jiang Yucheng wondered, "How do you say that?"
