Reborn Cultural Empire

Regarding Mr. Fatty's almost rascally attitude, Yang Yi thought to himself that there was no good way to do it. He could only let him open his briefcase, and then searched out a stack of drawings and began to check them.However, it is obvious that even though Rogo specializes in written publications, he is not ignorant of animation publications. On the contrary, under the premise of the influence of "Yunhuang" and frequent contact with island animation magazines, he is still able to See the good and bad of a comic.At first, he looked suspicious and expectant, but it didn't take long before his expression turned into surprise and ecstasy, and the big boss didn't consciously call out at all: "This is what you have been working on for more than a week. What? Awesome! It's really great!"

Yang Yi really wanted to say no, it was because he had borrowed the wisdom of his predecessors, but now he couldn't help being modest, everything had already become his own, so there was no need to pretend to be embarrassed, so he nodded: "Brother Luo, what do you think?" , How about this theme? I think before the broadcast of Dingchen Cartoon's "Evangelion", this comic can definitely leave an impression on the audience, that is, the story of this theme is the first release of our Yangyi Culture, It's not an animation of an island country."

"Huh? Our Yangyi culture is the first release? The theme? You mean, do you know what the content of Dingchen Cartoon's "Evangelion" is? Why haven't I heard of it?" Rogo wondered , and the old and the young on the sofa next to them also opened their ears involuntarily.

"Hey, don't you know? That animation started as early as 95, and it has been a controversial animation in the island country for a few years? Last time I heard that Dingchen Cartoon wanted to introduce it. , launched as the highlight of the summer file. I've been thinking about this issue, so you still don't know?" Yang Yi pretended to be surprised.In fact, I sigh in my heart, let alone the subject matter.I even remember one or two of the general plot, so why don’t I reveal it now to scare you: “It’s because of the novelty of this animation that I’m so eager to get out of “The Last Record” so that the The audience has an impression in advance, so that Dingchen Cartoon will not enter the ranks of large animation and animation companies in one fell swoop because of the huge impact at that time."

In fact, if Yang Yi told this statement to those Eva loyalists, they would definitely not agree with him—what is novelty of the subject matter?Do you think eva is the work of eyeballs?human nature!Do you understand what is human nature?There are also thoughts on life, and the stream-of-consciousness method that overturns the development of traditional animation according to the plot.There is also the use of religious and philosophical intentions, these are the real essence of eva, or can it be called a masterpiece just because of the novelty of a subject?If so, why didn't the Gundam series cause such a big impact and repercussions?Why don't you explain it?Why?

But the diehards think so, but those audiences who are not diehards of Eva, but simply because the characters are brilliant and the plot is novel, don't necessarily think so.While this animation has created countless diehards in China.There are also a large number of people who came into contact with the modern animation of the island country simply because of EVA. The previous "Dragon Ball" and "Saint Seiya", which gradually became memories, were also under the severe impact of this animation.returned to people's field of vision.It can be said that "Dragon Ball", "Saint Seiya", "Yu Yu Hakusho", "Slam Dunk" and "Holy Legend", these comics are of course very popular.But for many readers, their attention is only limited to the comics they read.And it will not be extended to the animation of the entire island country, maybe people who have only watched "Doraemon".After hearing the publicity of "Oh, that "Arale" is also good", there will be a lot of interest, but this interest will definitely not expand to the animation of the entire island country.This is not the case with Evangelion. Yang Yi once clearly remembered that someone said this on the forum - I was completely shocked after watching Eva, and I no longer think that comics are for children. The thing is gone, then?Then I became an anime fan.

So although Yang Yi can't completely imitate those Eva's narrative techniques, he can still let the "end of the world" and "human struggle" factors meet the audience before Eva.

All in all, it is to minimize the impact of that animation on the Chinese market.

Hearing the conversation between Yang Yi and Rogo, the two animators on the side who were already eager to try, couldn't sit still for a long time. Liao Xiangzhai, relying on his own qualifications, was not polite to Rogo, and directly stepped forward to grab half of it. draft.Although it was said to have been snatched, the old man's actions were really careful, for fear of ruining Yang Yi and Su Wan's hard work even a little bit.

At the beginning, I was a little confused, and it seemed that I couldn't accept it. After all, the old man had been working in Meiying all his life, and he had seen too many ink-style character settings, and suddenly changed to this kind of decadent style. The gloomy picture and painting style must be somewhat unacceptable.But as the story unfolded and more settings were presented, Liao Xiangzhai began to be surprised, raised his head and looked at Yang Yi in surprise, and then immediately lowered his head, although he knew that this boy's head was full of All kinds of novel ideas emerged in an endless stream, but this work in front of him can be regarded as a work that completely subverted the existing domestic animation settings, which still made him amazed for a long time in his heart.

And when he gradually deepened, this old man who has worked in Shanghai Meiying for most of his life, who can almost be called the living fossil of Chinese animation, immediately discovered the difference in Yang Yi's manuscript.

This is a good comic.

It can even be said to be very, very good, and the creativity can almost be compared with "The Adventures of the Sloppy King" and the writer surnamed Zheng who wrote countless fairy tales that children love to hear and read in the capital.Maybe when many people in later generations look back at the above works, they will only feel that they are indeed full of childlike innocence, but that’s not all, but only the generation who grew up with the sloppy king, Shu Kebeta, and Pipirulu Xixi, Only then will they understand what these ideas, these characters, and these stories mean to them in the era when there was no island country animation.Speaking of it, the reason why the animations of the island countries are so popular in later generations is because of the imagination. In China, there are not many people who focus on absorbing wealth, and there are not many people who can calm down and come up with all kinds of wonderful stories for their next generation. up.

Especially in domestic animation in recent years, Liao Xiangzhai has the most say on this point.Obviously, it was the most appealing cartoon in the past, but many young audiences became disinterested and unwilling to pay attention to it after watching it. There are various reasons for it, perhaps it is too preachy, or the characters are not set enough. Novelty, maybe the story is too old-fashioned... But no matter what the reason is, there is no denying the fact that domestic animation is gradually dying.Every time he thinks of this terrible fact, the old man can't help but sigh, and his heart is filled with a sense of pain that is not reconciled but powerless.

Cartoons, like fairy tales, are full of particularity, and fun must be the first priority. If this cannot be done, then children will use their choice votes to tell you these things They don't like it.But at the moment, domestic animation, it is obvious that some places are so out of date, but because of the influence of some factors outside the industry, they still insist on the wrong path. This way of handling will naturally make children feel afraid of the road.

Young audiences like all kinds of wild imaginations, and adults may think "Oh, this setting is really nonsense, how can there be such a xxx xxx?" But those who come up with such thoughts, they obviously forgot , children's thinking itself is unconstrained, and it is unconstrained, and only similar ideas can make children feel interesting.They just want to see some lively and interesting animations that they like.

And the current animation is undoubtedly in line with this standard.

Although speaking about some narrative aspects, it seems a bit difficult. Children who are too young may not be able to understand the meaning of the end of the world and the actions of the characters in the comics. The expression of thought has enlarged the audience of this work to a certain extent, so that what was originally read by children below can be enlarged to a level that adults can accept and appreciate. This is undoubtedly a very nice try.

Unheard of various settings, fascinating plot arrangements, occasional humor mixed in cruel battles and firm belief in the future, as well as the core idea of ​​finding light in the dark, which makes people unable to move. Countless advantages added together, almost in just 2 minutes of browsing, Liao Xiangzhai completely changed his views, and almost became a fan of "The Last Record".

"Okay, very good! Xiaoyi, you really put your heart into it. This animation must be done, and it must be done regardless of the cost. I can guarantee that this work will be a big hit. Compared with my grandson's favorite one What is "Battlestar", is that the right name? Compared with "Battlestar", your "The Last Record" is much more profound. It can not only attract the audience, but also trigger a lot of deep discussions. I'm sure I'll take the film job!"

Hearing Liao Xiangzhai's words, Li Wei, who hadn't got the sketches yet, couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't care less about being unsteady, so he grabbed the manuscripts from Liao Xiangzhai's hands, causing the old man to yell, "You slow down!" Please slow down", and then I couldn't wait to read it.

Looking at it, he was naturally immersed in it, unable to extricate himself anymore. Yang Yi recalled that in the reports of his previous life, people who would rather brave the downpour than wait for the release of the new manga series to follow were probably like this, so he had to Cough twice: "Okay, let's arrange the task first, and I will have time to watch it later."
