The Strongest Animator [Rebirth]

The contract negotiation went as smoothly as expected.

Ruan Wei was leaning halfway on the window seat, showing a relaxed posture. Her slender fingers were crossed together and rested on the edge of the wooden table naturally. young man.

"This..." The man frowned, with some real hesitation on his face. He looked at the expression of the young woman opposite him, trying to find a breakthrough, but failed, so he said angrily, "If it's at this price, I Need to ask for opinions from above.”

Ruan Wei nodded slightly and made a gesture of invitation.

The middle-aged man stood up and said, "Excuse me." He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and walked out to the corridor outside.

"He will agree." Seeing the figure of the man disappear from the door of the box, Ruan Wei smiled, and said to the young man beside her: "The results of "IS" are clearly placed there. Cooperate with us instead of us coming to beg them, as long as the price is not too high for them to bear, Dongshi will accept it with gritted teeth."

Sure enough, 5 minutes later, the middle-aged man hurried back from the corridor.

His expression at the moment is still not good-looking - I heard that Huaying's boss is a nerd who has just stepped out of the university campus and devoted himself to making animations, so he has the idea of ​​taking advantage of as much as possible in the negotiation.

Unexpectedly, Mu Su Xing himself had no intention of intervening in this negotiation at all. He said that he handed it over to Ruan Wei, and he really handed over the initiative of the entire negotiation to the other party. Li, moved with emotion, the shepherd star just smiled, as if he didn't hear it at all.

It can be said that they cooperated to the extreme.

It's not like me... The man thinks of the boss who has no brains, pretends to understand, and orders himself on the phone, for fear that if he doesn't agree to Huaying's request, this cooperation will fail. He just feels a headache. Everyone He came out to mess around, so why is someone else's boss so considerate and reasonable?

He couldn't help but smile wryly at this moment: "I didn't say that, Miss Ruan, your price is too..."

Ruan Wei gently stirred the coffee in the porcelain cup, smiled without saying a word.

The man knew that the other party had decided for him, so he could only let out a long sigh, and no longer struggled needlessly: "On behalf of Dongshi, I agree to the above request of Huaying Company."

After finishing speaking, he simply and neatly signed the contract in front of him.

Ruan Wei took the contract and carefully looked at the signature on it. After confirming that it was correct, she turned her head and looked at the young man beside her. Shot: "Well, happy cooperation."

After signing the contract related to the surrounding development, it was already 09:30 in the evening.

Considering that it was eight o'clock in the evening when they came - I have to say that as a project contract manager, this work efficiency can be said to be quite good.

While thinking about it, Mu Su Xing ticked off the names belonging to Ruan Wei in the list of employees in his mind.

If it is said that before "IS" was produced, it was the employees who chose Huaying, then after "IS" became popular, it was Huaying who chose the employees.

Although he has no interest in managing the company, and he is not good at it, but now there are only a few high-level people who can use Huaying Animation. He can't think about it. Now that "IS" has been finished, naturally It is also time to clean up IS.

With a good work attitude, excellent business ability or reliable professional ability, the Shepherd Star will naturally not be fired, but those who were lazy and slippery during the production of "IS" and did not work with their wages, of course he has no reason to support them Rice worms.

"Let's stop here today," Shepherd Xing stood still at the door of the hotel, turned to look at Ruan Wei: "Go to the finance department to collect the overtime pay for this time. I still have a dinner, so I won't go back. "

Ruan Wei's eyes lit up, and her expression also changed.

Sure enough, the choice to stay in Huaying Animation was right.These days, it's not easy to find a BOSS who trusts you, doesn't talk about things, and even offers bonuses.

Ruan Wei's mood immediately became more beautiful when she thought of the bonus, but she did not forget her duty because of this, but asked, "Can you tell me what the dinner is? Do you want me to accompany you to a place?" trip?"

"No need," said the favored employee, and Shepherd Xing was also very satisfied: "It's just a dinner for communication in the industry, and most of the time it will be about animation production. It's not interesting for you to stay. Now It's a bit late too, it's not safe for you to stay out too late as a girl, go back first."

Ruan Wei also wanted to recommend herself, but seeing Mu Suxing's insistence, she called a taxi and left.

Mu Suxing originally didn't plan to participate in this so-called industry exchange meeting. In his previous life, he didn't like to mingle with people, and he has no interest in this life. However, the person in charge of organizing this exchange meeting was determined to invite him. However, the other party was still one of his good friends in the previous life, so it was hard to refuse.

It is said to be an industry exchange meeting, but in fact, including Mu Su Xing, there are only six animation directors in total.When the waiter led Shepherd Xing into the box, several directors inside were already drinking happily.

Seeing that everyone's cheeks were flushed from drinking, and their eyes were slightly drunk, Mu Suxing suddenly felt a little dizzy.

He regretted it a little.

It's not that he regrets not letting Ruan Wei accompany him. It's not appropriate for girls to come and mingle in this kind of place, but if he knew that this group of people can drink so much, he should have called Fang Lian up—if he had to deal with it Among the people he knew, Fang Lian was the number one in this kind of scene, but no one really dared to say it was the second.

"Xiao Mu is here?" The first person to speak was a middle-aged man with fair looks and the appearance of a scholar. Seeing Mu Suxing push the door in, he immediately waved his hand and invited him very enthusiastically: "Come on! You are alone!"

After speaking, he couldn't help but pull Mu Suxing over. Fortunately, he didn't persuade Mu Suxing to drink immediately, but enthusiastically introduced several animation directors around him to Mu Suxing: "Come on, let me introduce you For a moment, this is the animation director of "Blood Rose", Mr. He Hongfeng."

"You should be familiar with this Mr. Ying Kaiyu. "The Retired Life of the Demon King" is his work."

"And this one..."

After such a circle of introductions, the middle-aged man introduced quite formally: "I believe you all know who I am, Director Xiaomu, but for the sake of grandeur, I still want to introduce to you, this is my favorite director." The little friend I mentioned to you earlier, the Shepherd Star."

Hearing this, Mu Su Xing had no choice but to show a helpless smile.

The middle-aged man in front of him is Wei Liwen, one of his friends from the previous life.

The meeting between the two can be said to be the meeting of Maxima and Bole. At that time, Wei Liwen was very busy with the investment of the animation film at hand. When he had nowhere to go, he thought of online crowdfunding and was willing to invest in the animation that he had little hope of. There were very few, and in the end Mu Suxing, who had just passed his birthday at that time, took out the lucky money that he had saved since he was a child, and was going to use it to make his first animation, filling the last part of Wei Liwen's investment.

It is not only the funds, but also the support of Shepherd Star.

It is not an easy task to make animated films these days, especially an animation director like Wei Liwen who has no particularly famous masterpieces. Although his family did not have any doubts about his behavior of selling houses and cars for animation investment, Even caring and consistent support for his dream, but as a man, Wei Liwen has a lot of pressure and burden in his heart after all.

After all, what if the film loses all its money?

Mu Suxing's support is very practical. In addition to the real investment amount, there is also a serious market analysis. The two investigate and analyze the market trend together, and then from the very few people at the beginning of screening to the official release At that time, the box office explosion caused by word of mouth!

It was precisely because of such an experience that even though the two of them were old enough to be Mu Suxing's son, in Wei Liwen's mind, Mu Suxing was regarded as a friend who had forgotten his age.

After everyone in the circle got acquainted with each other, and continued to drink, Wei Liwen pulled Mu Suxing aside, and complained in a low voice: "You too, when you encountered such a bad thing before, why didn't you talk to me?" Tell me? Brother Wei, although I don't have the reputation of Director Ji, if I really stand up, someone in this industry will give me some face, and you won't get into trouble with the school to that extent."

Seeing that Mu Suxing nodded obediently, Wei Liwen knew that he didn't take it to heart, so he could only sigh: "Don't take it seriously, at least one-third of the animation producers these days come from Xingning University of the Arts , It’s not good for you if you really want to make too much trouble with the school.”

He babbled on, but Shepherd Xing just laughed and didn't refute.

Based on previous lives, the two of them have been old friends for nearly 20 years. It can be said that they are very familiar with each other. This person is taciturn in public. Well, this person is like an old lady in character, and she has always been a mother-in-law when she cares about people.

Revisiting such nagging now, Shepherd Xing does not feel bored, but only feels a little nostalgic.

"I said, old Wei, you're almost ready," Wei Liwen chatted for a while, before being stopped by one of the female directors. She put down the beer mug in her hand and said angrily, "You said you would bring Director Xiaomu introduced us to each other, why did you call him to the side and start chatting first?"

Wei Liwen was speechless.

He looked at Shepherd Xing, who was dressed in a suit but still couldn't hide the innocent and harmless aura around him, and looked at the old drivers he invited opposite him. I have some regrets.

But this exchange meeting was hosted by him. It was originally to help Mu Su Xing broaden his contacts in the industry. Xing Xing has just come of age this year, you should pay attention to what you say, even persuading you to drink - especially you, female hooligan, don't always think about molesting other children, Xing Xing has a family! Do you hear me?"

The Shepherd Star who was "just grown up": ...

"Fuck you, what nonsense are you talking about?" The female director said angrily, "You are only allowed to whisper to others, and don't let us share our experiences?"

Wei Liwen was also not polite to her: "Isn't it because you are too fierce and scare people?" It can be heard that the relationship between the two is really good.

The female director snorted softly and didn't care about him as much. She took a glass of beer and sat next to Mu Su Xing. Mu Su Xing glanced at the table. I handed him a cup—there was still a lot of bubbles at the bottom of the cup, which looked like Sprite.

Seeing that several people were looking at him, he waved his hand and explained without changing his face: "You are childish, it's very interesting to have a drink, and you don't really want to force people to drink?"

Shepherd stars who have been directly downgraded from "just grown up" to underage treatment: ...

He had already talked about this point, even if there were people who wanted to persuade them to drink, they were too embarrassed to say it now, so they had to let the pastor use Sprite instead of wine, and did it together.

During the meeting, everyone intermittently exchanged views on the current animation environment, or discussed a certain style and theme. Occasionally, they encountered conflicting opinions, and it was inevitable to argue for a few sentences, but it was limited to academic disputes, and there was no It means to make a real fire.

Everyone was chatting, and soon "IS" was mentioned.

Several people did not analyze the meaning of "IS". During this period of time, what should be said and what should not be said, good and bad, have basically been analyzed by professional comic critics. What they are talking about is not "IS" It is not itself, but the harem fan market headed by "IS".

Shepherd Xing thought, since he came in, he hasn’t said anything. For someone he just met, being so reticent would inevitably give people a sense of impoliteness or arrogance. The topic happened to turn to him, and he simply said: "If it's a harem fan, I can make a fool of myself and say a few words about this."

The results of "IS" are there, and the few people present are naturally convinced of the ability of Shepherd Star. Hearing this, they immediately looked at him in unanimous agreement.

He Hongfeng was the first to take up the conversation. After all, "Blood Rose" was one of the victims who fell at the feet of "IS". As the animation director of "Blood Rose", he was still very interested in the point of view of Shepherd Star: "How explain?"

"No matter what, what is certain is that due to the emergence of "IS", in the next six months or even a year, brainless harem animations like "IS" will definitely go online together." Shepherd Xing said.

This view was unanimously endorsed by all present.

In the animation industry, following trends is a rare and common thing. The explosion of "IS" will definitely drive the entire harem animation market, and this is a major reason why many industry leaders are worried: when the entire market is When occupied by this kind of brainless and illogical sand sculpture animation, where should the drama animation be?

As if knowing what they were thinking, Mu Juxing shook his head: "I'm still just a rookie in the field of drama animation, so I won't say much here. What I want to talk about is the field of commercial animation."

Everyone didn't show it on their faces, but they nodded secretly in their hearts.

The theme and style of "IS" are too commercial after all, and "The Little Prince" is a short art animation and a long drama animation are two different things. If Mu Su star opens his mouth, it will be a drama animation, even if everyone doesn't say anything, In most of my heart, I also find it funny, but commercial animation is different.

Shepherd Xing has already proved his absolute strength in the field of commercial animation with real achievements. Now that he opens his mouth to talk about this topic, not only did everyone not underestimate him because of his age, but everyone seemed to be Look focused.

“It’s okay if you’re doing other types of animation, but if you want to be a harem fan, in order to fight your way out in the harem fan market, I suggest trying to add some contrast while being brainless and illogical. nature."

As soon as Mu Suxing's voice fell, the female director who spoke to him before had her eyes lit up, and she said with great interest: "Contrasting things...can you talk about it in detail?"

Without waiting for Mu Su Xing to answer, she explained: "It's like this. Although I personally have no interest in harem animations, my husband has been serializing a harem animation recently, and it will be finished in the past two weeks. At this point, she paused for a moment, as if she was observing the expression of Shepherd Star, and then said: "Coincidentally speaking, this animation project, like "IS", is also for business. From the plot point of view, Possibly even worse than IS."

Mu Suxing's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly asked: "May I know the name of this animation?"

The female director coughed lightly, and said uncomfortably, "The name is "The Superpower of Love."

Shepherd star understood immediately.

In the 20 years of his last life, there are not many animations that can occupy a place in his memory, and "Super Power of Love" is one of them.

It's not because of how excellent its plot and production are, but as a harem animation, its level of vulgarity is groundbreaking in the previous life without "IS". The reason is very simple, "IS" has no brains. Brainless, selling meat is selling meat, but at any rate, it is still covered with a layer of skin, and it is not too obvious.

But "Super Power of Love" is different.

The harem fans of other people’s families are the male protagonists who are insensitive and passive, and often fail to win any girl until the end, but "Super Power of Love" is different, compared with other male protagonists of the harem fans , the male protagonist of "The Super Power of Love" takes the initiative to repair the field, sober and shameless, the girls in the harem even push one by one, he can be called a fighter among scumbags.

Calculated in terms of time, "Super Power of Love" was serialized almost halfway through the serialization of "IS".

Thinking about it carefully, the industry’s criticism and contempt for "IS" also began to subside at that time. First, the sales of "IS" will inevitably make people who despise it leave a comment of "you can't eat grapes, say grapes are sour". The second is that the hatred value of "Super Power of Love" has been transferred.

Do you think "IS" is already very vulgar as a harem fan?

"Super Power of Love" tells you that as a harem fan, it can be even more vulgar!

"Thanks to "IS", "Super Power of Love" is now ranked third in the animation subscription list," as a harem fan, this result can be said to be quite good.The female director seemed a little worried at the moment: "But it is also for this reason that my husband and I have been worrying about the ending of the animation recently."

If it was another harem fan, it would be possible to have a blank ending, but in "Super Power of Love", the scumbag male protagonist has done what should be done and what should not be done, so I want to give it to the ending in the ending. Surprise the audience, it is very difficult.

She said sincerely: "I'm very interested in what you mean by 'contrast', can you give us some advice?"

Shepherd star did not immediately answer this question.

In terms of contrast, he does have an idea, but...

"In fact, this approach will bring great risks to the animation," Shepherd Xing pondered for a while, and finally considered his words: "Maybe it's a big explosion, maybe it's a big blow, but whether it's a big blow or a big blow, Blast, it will definitely be remembered by everyone who has seen this animation—”

The female director's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Tell me about it?"

Shepherd star cleared his throat: "It's like this..."

……

As a fan of "IS", Luo Gaofeng is not in a good mood recently.

The good news is that one month after the end of "IS", Huaying Animation quickly announced the decision of the second season of "IS".The bad news is that Huaying Animation stated that the production team of the second season of "IS" will no longer be the original team, and the chief director will no longer be the pastor star, but will be directed by a newcomer named Dai Yuyan from Huaying Animation serve.

Luo Gaofeng became anxious immediately.

Among other things, the name Dai Yuyan sounds like a girl, so let a girl director do the harem show?Does she know what the otaku audience wants to see?

What is Huaying Animation thinking?

There are not a few people who share the same views as him. Since Huaying Animation announced this new project, those who opposed it went to the Huaying Animation Weibo on time every day to check in:

"It's okay to change the director in the second season, but there is actually a female director. Is Huaying animation drifting?"

"It's not that I look down on female directors. Can a woman really do a good job in male harem animation? She probably doesn't even know what the audience wants to see!"

"I'm so disappointed. If the director of the second season of "IS" is a woman, I definitely won't watch it."

"Don't watch +1, don't ask for the original crew, but it can't be so outrageous that an inexperienced woman is the chief director, right?"

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, Luo Gaofeng turned off Weibo and clicked on the Yueqi video.

If there is no accident, today should be the finale of "Super Power of Love". Although many fans of "IS" agree that "Super Power of Love" is too naked to sell meat, it is almost greasy, but Luo Gaofeng It seems that seeing too many indecisive male protagonists, this kind of scum male protagonist who pushes girls outright, is not interesting.

With anticipation, Luo Gaofeng happily clicked on the last episode of "The Superpower of Love".

This time, he didn't choose to skip the opening theme song, but let the theme song play, while happily rehearsing the ending of "The Superpower of Love".

Just in the last episode, the male protagonist has already pushed the girl who is the last high-cold fairy fan in the animation, and all the girls know each other's existence, and the ending is fixed in the Shura field of the girls. The finale of this episode is definitely It is to solve the problem left over from the last episode of Shura Field.

I don't know how the male protagonist will solve the problem of the Shura field... Will "Super Power of Love" become the first truly conscious harem show in history, and will all the female protagonists be included in the harem?

With such expectations and doubts, Luo Gaofeng watched happily.

The girls began to sit down and chat.

Um?There was no quarreling or fighting, but talking and laughing?

Can't let the hero know?Could it be that the girls have reached a consensus on each other's existence with empathy, and are going to partner up to surprise the hero?

As Luo Gaofeng thought about it, he saw that the barrage on the animation suddenly became denser:

"End of Sahua! This is the most classic harem ending I have ever seen! No one! I want all Amway friends to come and watch this animation!"

"The ending is really great! Confess to the production team!"

"High energy ahead, please note, this is not a drill, super high energy ahead! There is still time to leave!"

"Don't listen to the barrage of nonsense, this animation is super good-looking, I won't lie to you, and the ending is also very cool, if you don't watch it, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"

"The door has been welded to death by me, none of you can leave! [Fierce]"

Luo Gaofeng: ...

According to his many years of experience in Yueqi Video, these bullet screens gave him a bad premonition...

Two 10 minutes later.

It's still the animation, it's still the group of cute and soft girls, but what appears in front of Luo Gaofeng at this moment is the scene of dismemberment after a murder case——

The girls gently stroked the male protagonist's cheeks, with weird smiles on their faces, and said sweetly: "Honey, you are so hardworking, in order to avoid more girls joining in the future, we have to It’s a deliberate move.”

"It's okay to be fickle, now we can be together forever~"

then.

The cold little fairy took away the male lead's left leg;

The soft and cute cutie took away the hero's right leg;

Gentle Hei Changzhi took away the male lead's left arm;

The most popular tsundere girl chose the male lead's torso;

The long-legged royal sister known as the main palace chose the head of the male lead...

Luo Gaofeng: ……………

Luo Gaofeng:? ? ?

Lying down a big trough! ! !Can anyone tell him, what the hell is this unfolding? ? ?What about Su Shuang's harem fan? ? ?Isn't this really the opening of the reasoning animation?

Or, "The Superpower of Love" is actually a reasoning animation, and the plot has just begun?

Luo Gaofeng was still struggling in his heart, but with the screen full of "Fuck", the words "End of the whole show" popped up on the animation page in due course.

End.

End of the play.

end.

Luo Gaofeng was stunned!

At this moment, his heart was completely occupied by boundless anger and shock. He didn't react until the ending song of the animation was played and the screen was plunged into darkness. Then he clicked on Weibo angrily.

Don't stop me!I have to scold the production team so badly today!

Don't want to click on the director of "The Super Power of Love" Weibo, Luo Gaofeng saw a familiar name at a glance——

Zhuang Heyu V: Hello everyone, I am Zhuang Heyu, the chief director of "Super Power of Love". As of today, "Super Power of Love" has officially come to an end. I am very grateful to all the audience friends for their support all the way!

Here, I would also like to thank the chief director of "IS" animation @朱宿星V. When I was thinking about the ending of "Love's Superpower", I encountered many difficulties. It was Director Mu who gave me great inspiration and inspiration. Inspiration, without Director Mu's instructions, there would be no "Super Power of Love" today, thanks again to Director Mu!

Luo Gaofeng was stunned.

The fans who had already figured out how to scold the director severely were also stunned.

No wonder the director, who has been honestly promoting his sister, suddenly made such a showy operation in the ending. Is the real culprit the dare to love Mu Su star? ? ?

"Don't say anything, everyone, I know what you want to say, let's see you on Weibo under the pastor :)"

The staff responsible for managing the official Weibo, and also handling the personal Weibo of Shepherd Star, were a little confused.

what is it today?There is not much activity on Huaying Animation's official blog, but BOSS's private Weibo has so many news that it is about to explode?

Surprised, she clicked on Musuxing's latest Weibo, which was sent by Musuxing to celebrate when "IS" BD sales exceeded 2. It's 3.

What happened?

When she was surprised, the whole picture of the comment area also appeared in front of her eyes:

"??? Director Mu, Qiuqiu, just be yourself. Look at which stinky ditch you have taken director Zhuang to. Wouldn't your conscience ache if you hurt other fans like this?"

"After watching the ending of "The Superpower of Love", I burst into tears and cried, Director Mu, do you dare to be a little bit more stupid???"

"Director Mu, I've been thinking about it. While you are working on "IS", you still have time to guide other people's animations. It is really hard work. Can you send me your address privately? I want to send you some Ginseng and herbal supplements ^_^”

"I cried, I really cried. Do you know how I felt when I saw [beep——] when I took off my pants? I didn't have a girlfriend this year, woo woo woo woo woo!"

Miss staff:?Fa, what happened?What is the super power of love?When did Director Maki do animation again?

She opened the Weibo search bar in confusion, and was about to search for this so-called "Super Power of Love", when a hot search automatically appeared in the search bar——

#Love’s Superpower Ending, Shepherd Star#

She looked at the hot search list next to her, and she was almost not taken aback, only to see that the hot search list was neatly arranged at the moment——

1. Love's Superpower Ending, Shepherd Star

2. IS Season [-]

3. Dog Thief Shepherd Star :)

She subconsciously followed the "Dog Thief Shepherd Star" and clicked in——

"The group has started, the group is recruited online to send blades to dog thieves, first class 1 speed!"

"Don't stop me, don't stop me all of you, I'm going to kill this thief, Mu Su Xing, to kill the people today!"

"Pass the knife upstairs, please."

"I feel so sorry for Director Zhuang. My own animation is over, and I'm actually on the hot search with someone else's director."

"No, no, I think Director Zhuang should be like this now—Director Zhuang: Don't cue me! It's none of my business! I'm just a weak, pitiful and helpless harem manga director. Trembling.jpg"

"Hahahahahahaha, I was really sleepy early in the morning, so I woke up laughing for you. I haven't watched "Super Power of Love", but after reading the spoiler emmmmm, can I say that I like the ending? Director Mu So beautiful! Seeing a scumbag like the male lead who likes to push each other, he deserves to die without a whole body."

"Happy to hear and see +1, Xing Xing is so cute! Thinking about the mood of nerds seeing the ending, I want to laugh, hahahahahahaha, I offer my knees to Xing Xing!"

"As a girl, I was not interested in" Super Power of Love ". Now I really want to watch it. Hahahahahahahahaha is really classic, and Su Shuang is very happy! Five -star praise will not explain!"

"Sister said that she became a fan of your director Lu. Hahahaha, this operation is really too flirty. I used to think that Mu Suxing only had money in his eyes, but now I find that I was wrong. It was a big mistake! This is obviously a supernatural, How about a god-level director who has escaped vulgar tastes!"

"Dick! The IS fan next door sent a congratulatory message!"

"As a fan of "IS", please allow me to pet the dog's head of the brothers next door lovingly. [smirk]"

"As a fan of "IS", can I say that I broke out in a cold sweat after watching "Super Power of Love"? When I thought that Mr. Mu might have considered this ending when he was working on "IS", I was afraid."

"It's over, as a die-hard fan of Director Mu, I don't reject female directors at all to shoot the second season of "IS", thank you Director Mu for not being cruel.

At the same time, all the directors who announced the new project as Harem Fan received a lot of inexplicable private messages at this time:

"Promise me, stay away from dog thieves, okay? He is a devil! A devil! A murderous, outrageous devil!!"
