Chapter 320 Afanti and Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio (Subscribe)

"Gu Sanshui!"

"I warn you, don't go too far! When did I owe you twelve houses? Tell me clearly!"

Mr. Xiong's roar came from the receiver of the mobile phone, Gu Miao hurriedly put the mobile phone away, so as not to be blown to the eardrums.

"Mr. Bear, have you forgotten?"

"Didn't you promise me that you would give me a house when we cooperated with Wanbao to build a Pokémon Gym?"

"What are you talking about Nima?"

Mr. Xiong laughed back angrily: "You were talking about shops, OK! I gave you the shops, and the Pokémon Gym is also open, and you asked me for twelve sets of commercial houses?"

"How dare you?"

"Did you talk about shops last time? Oh, I seem to have misremembered."

Gu Miao scratched her head and said, "Forget it, I don't care about that, anyway, you prepare [-] sets of commercial houses for me. The residential area in the Jiangchuan area is better, as long as the area is not too small."

"That's it, I hang up!"

"Gu San...beep beep!"

After hanging up the phone, Gu Miao turned her head to look at Liang Xiaodong, who had just joined the job today, and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of eyes are you looking at? You don't want a house anymore?"

"No, I...I..."

Liang Xiaodong hesitated for a long time, but he didn't want to understand. Is this how Mr. Gu's so-called house came from?

Isn't this robbery?

Ok!

The "friendship" between the bosses, he, the employee, will not follow along.What if I say something wrong and the house is gone?
"Mr. Gu, the entry procedures are complete."

Liang Xiaodonghui reported: "According to your instructions, the puppet studio has also been established. Do you have any new instructions for the next work plan?"

""The Peacock Princess" is quite good, you can communicate with Wanbao Video, and send it to the video website after the premiere is over."

Gu Miao tapped on the table, thinking: "If you have time, go talk to President Nan of Wanbao Comics. They have a lot of comics and light novels. You can pick a few and adapt them."

"Oh yes!"

Speaking of adaptation, Gu Miao suddenly remembered his original intention of recruiting Liang Xiaodong's team, and couldn't help asking: "You should know about Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio, right?"

"some!"

Liang Xiaodong nodded.

Liaozhai is such a famous work, if he said he didn't know, he hadn't seen it, that would be really contemptuous.

It's just that he didn't understand, what did Boss Gu mean by saying this all of a sudden?Liaozhai and puppet animation have... Huh?It seems to be a bit messed up!

Seeing Liang Xiaodong's pensive expression, Gu Miao smiled and said, "It's good that you understand. Puppet animation is suitable for adapting those folk legends. Read more of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio". It's good to pick a few stories and change them."

"I understand."

Liang Xiaodong nodded, and decided to go to the bookstore later and get a copy of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" to seriously study the feasibility of adapting the stories of Liaozhai.

This is indeed a clear path.

Puppet animation, an artistic form of expression, is indeed a match made in heaven for folklore stories.

In the previous "puppet shows", the stories were also folklore, and most of them were classical myths.

Don't ask why!
The question is, puppets are used to represent "mythical characters" and "legendary characters" are simply too vivid.

Think about it from another angle...

What would happen if we used the art form of puppet animation to make an animation like "The Moon Is Beautiful"?

Is the sense of disobedience instantly full?

It can be said that the most suitable stories for puppet animation must be the more "old-fashioned" plots such as folklore and classical mythology.

"For folklore..."

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Miao said, "I don't know if you have heard of a story that spread in the Western Regions?"

"Western Region?"

Liang Xiaodong thought about it seriously, and finally asked hesitantly, "Avanti?"

"Yes! It's Avanti!"

Gu Miao snapped her fingers and said, "How is it? Do you think Avanti and puppet animation can spark something?"

"Avanti... puppet..."

After muttering for a while, Liang Xiaodong finally nodded and said, "It can be done, I think this story should be more popular than "Peacock Princess"."

nonsense!

Gu Miao couldn't help rolling her eyes.

The plot of Avanti's story can only be described in four words: lively and interesting!

Peacock Princess is a "love" story!
Children definitely prefer Avanti's "vivid and interesting" stories, rather than the love-loving "Peacock Princess".

"Then do this."

Liang Xiaodong is also a straightforward person. Hearing Mr. Gu's words, he nodded without hesitation and said, "I'll go back right away, let the juniors do the preparations, and get out "Avanti" first."

"Wait a moment!"

Gu Miao raised her hand to signal Liang Xiaodong not to worry, and after he sat down again, she asked, "As far as I know, when you do puppet animation, you should first make a humanoid movable wooden doll, right?"

"correct!"

Liang Xiaodong nodded and said, "Puppets are the soul and the most important thing of puppet animation. We must get this first!"

"Hmm! I have an idea..."

When Gu Miao heard this, she suddenly looked forward to it: "Does a human-shaped movable wooden doll have to be made of wood?"

what?
Liang Xiaodong wondered: "What do you mean? This doesn't seem to be important! I remember there are also cotton wool and paper figurines."

"Yup!"

"I mean, it doesn't really matter if the doll is made of wood, right? Is it equally feasible to replace it with plastic or metal?"

Gu Miao squatted down, rummaged in the drawer under the desk for a while, and finally took out the treasure she had treasured for a long time, and handed it to Liang Xiaodong.

【Super Platinum Limited】Dragon King!

The Dragon King from "Dragon Fighter" has many movable joints in the whole body, and the material is plastic, which can be assembled into a movable toy model.

Gu Miao asked expectantly: "If you say, I mean if... If it's this kind of doll, can you use it for animation?"

"It might work!"

Playing with Mr. Gu's collector's toy, Liang Xiaodong said uncertainly: "Change it into a human form, and make a little modification in the details, it should be fine."

"That's great!"

Gu Miao clapped her hands excitedly, and said excitedly, "Go get Avanti first, and when you finish Avanti, I'll discuss with you about making money."

Money-making plan? !
Liang Xiaodong looked at the [Dragon King] toy model in his hand, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Mr. Gu's gourd?

Can this thing make money?

It seems very interesting to watch, if it is made into a puppet animation, will anyone really buy it?
Although Liang Xiaodong was puzzled, he felt that this idea was unreliable.But since Mr. Gu said that it can make money, he can only trust Mr. Gu.

　Regarding the origin of the story of Avanti, there seem to be many versions, I am not sure, does anyone know?
