my animation era

Chapter 694

Ma Kui came to ask for money.

It is false to give green peppers and shredded pork rice, but it is true to ask for funding with a note.

He went to Gu Miao's office first, but he couldn't find anyone. After inquiring, he learned that Mr. Gu was inspecting the "Super Beast Armed Forces" project at Dimension Studio, so he came here with a rice bowl.

Gu Miao glanced at the budget appropriation application form brought by Ma Kui.

Then he fell silent.

"Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is a Chinese zodiac series with the theme of the Year of the Goat, and he has asked the finance minister to pre-allocate more than 3700 million yuan.

I thought it was enough money.

Maybe after the movie is finished, there will be a few million or even more than 1000 million left.

But in the end, Ma Kui not only burned all the money, but even asked for a second additional investment with an approval slip.This time the amount even reached an astonishing 5000 million yuan.

With the assistance of his various conspiracies and tricks, as well as the strong physical and technological strength of the aliens, the grassland animals have been defeated repeatedly.

Big Big Wolf went undercover again.

"Pleasant Goat alone has more than 7000 hair details, not to mention other..."

However, at this moment, Qingqing Prairie ushered in a group of mysterious alien real estate developers.

"No no no!"

Ma Kui spread his hands and said, "The Year of the Goat movie will be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, plus it will be submitted for review and pre-cut and announced, so the time is very tight, okay?"

"You can think about it!"

"It's expensive!"

"It's not that Yang, it's the sheep of Pleasant Goat, which is a homonym for sheep with elated eyebrows!"

He was bought by the aliens, because the aliens promised to build him a big wolf castle, a whole planet of life, and endless little fat sheep.

For such a long production cycle, the labor wage alone is not a small amount.

Although Gu Miao wanted to see Ma Kui get embarrassed, and even wanted to take this opportunity to take back the gold medal for avoiding death, but he couldn't accept such a huge loss.

"Yup!"

But what's going on with Ma Kui?
It only took a few months from the preparation to the approval of the big movie of the Year of the Goat. Where did all his money go?

However, the price is really expensive!Ordinary 3D animation doesn't seem to cost so much money, right?

Wanbao has its own 3D studio, and even has a ready-made motion capture CG team, but he actually went to an outsider?Does the fat water flow into the fields of outsiders?

Ma Kui used to be the director of "Sheep and Sheep Games", so he naturally thought of the "Sheep Games" where many sheep families participated and the screen was full of "sheep".

Since it was in a hurry to catch up with the schedule, it was understandable for Ma Kui to do so.

Alien was KO...

Alien businessmen want to requisition the entire prairie land and build luxurious holiday villas on it.The animals on the grassland naturally refused to agree.

So he made all kinds of troubles.

Gu Miao curled her lips and said, "But you're right, such a story is very suitable for the children's appetite, and it also fits the atmosphere of the family carnival during the Spring Festival."

But this kind of "burning money" is more due to the burning of money caused by the long "production cycle".A live-action movie is finished in a few months, at most a few months.

The angry aliens tore off the camouflage, used high technology to forcibly capture the animals, and planned to exile them to another planet.

Big Big Wolf and Pleasant Goat once again embarked on the journey to save their wives, children, and fellow village chiefs, and defeated the aliens together.

Before the opening of the 126th Goat Games, the lambs living in Qingqing Grassland are also preparing for the next Goat Games and actively exercising.

"Are you going to heaven?"

Year XXXX of the sheep calendar.

He doesn't understand.

Gu Miao asked curiously: "Because the lambs won the final championship, so the movie is called the elated sheep?"

Falk oil!
Gu Miao wished she could slap this fellow Ma Kui and let him know what it means to fear beyond death.

So, in the last volleyball doubles match, Big Big Wolf, who was going to act as the inner ghost and deliberately let the aliens win, turned around and played a seamless match with Pleasant Goat.

This year coincides with the year of the sheep, and Pleasant Goat is also a sheep, so it can be said that it is the year of birth.

Gu Miao didn't realize it at first, what [-] hairs, what exactly is Ma Kui talking about?
But when he recalled and understood the meaning of Ma Kui's words, he suddenly said in astonishment: "You...you are doing 3D?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Gu!"

Ma Kuili said bluntly: "Dimension Studio has no time to take orders, so I had to find another team to do it. The quotation of the outside team must be more expensive than our internal team."

"So you mean, this movie is actually an enhanced version of "Yangyang Games"? Or is it the model of the games?"

It's not that Gu Miao was reluctant to part with the money, he was just worried about Ma Kui.

Only this time, it's not the sheep sports meeting, but the grassland sports meeting, and all animals will participate...

"Dimension Studio is busy working on "Super Beast Armed Forces", and your "Bear Infested" will follow, how can it be of any help?"

"What the hell? Excited?"

Even if the movie hits the big screen, it can rely on peripheral toys and derivative products to make a mouthful of blood, so the box office can't be less than [-] million, right?
This is too stressful.

To make a big movie about Pleasant Goat's "Natural Year", it will naturally contain many "sheep" elements.So what theme has the most sheep elements?

Ma Kui said confidently: ""The Eating Sheep" will definitely not let you down. Recovering the production cost is nothing. My goal is to break the record!"

Aliens love sports.

Although under normal circumstances, animated movies do burn money, at least more than most live-action movies.

simply put.

However, for a well-produced animated film with outstanding screen expression, its preparatory cycle and even production cycle are usually in units of "years".

"All I can say is, it's corny..."

"I'm in a hurry!"

So they proposed that a game should be used to determine the outcome, and those who lost the game would move out of the grassland unconditionally.

Ma Kui raised a finger, shook it from side to side twice, and then said slowly: "The story of the film's frowning is not as simple as you think..."

This is understandable.

At the critical moment, it was Pleasant Goat who turned the tide, not only relying on "sprint" to get back the score, but also made Big Big Wolf wake up.

"Seventeen thousand hairs?"

Seeing that Mr. Gu was somewhat puzzled and puzzled, Ma Kui immediately explained to him the origin of the movie's name and the outline of the story.

Based on this production cycle, there is a saying that animated films burn more money than ordinary live-action films.

Gu Miao was so angry that she threw the document directly on Ma Kui, with a black line on her forehead and said, "That's 3700 million yuan, not 3700 yuan, and you burned it out so quickly?"

3700 million + 5000 million, that is a production budget close to [-] million.Counting the cost of publicity and distribution in the later stage, the box office will not be able to recover the cost if it does not have [-] to [-] million.

"The second budget?"

Ma Kui rubbed his hands and looked at Mr. Gu expectantly.

Gu Miao didn't answer him, but just took out a gel pen from the table, and signed her name in the "Leadership Opinion" column of the application form.

　How long has it been released? Why don't people around care about the epidemic anymore...
