The superstar starts from the creation camp

Chapter 199 Are all Chinese comics spicy chicken?

After dinner, Chen Xuan and Zhou Mengying were sent away, and Wang Ziwen started to clean up the mess. Jelly was so greedy from the beginning of the meal, she followed Wang Ziwen and ran into the kitchen. Seeing Wang Ziwen dumping all the leftovers into the trash can, don't mention the aggrieved eyes How pitiful.

It's a pity that Li Mu quickly took the back neck and threw it in front of its rice bowl: "Don't pretend, eat quickly, or this will be gone later."

Jelly was deep in thought, whether to eat or not to eat, this is a matter of dignity, but dignity is worthless in front of a hungry stomach.

So the emotional eating machine came back again.

Hearing the familiar wheezing sound, Wang Ziwen couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the living room, and when she saw Li Mu coming over, she gave him a wink with a chuckle.

Li Mu nodded, and said in a low voice: "It's enough to be hungry for two meals, this kid is still fighting with me, and he has no way."

Speaking of which, when Jelly first came back, the first two days were pretty good. Ever since Wang Ziwen couldn't bear its wronged eyes and gave it a piece of braised pork, the little guy started to play tricks and refused to eat dog food. At first, Wang Ziwen didn't care , Later, the jelly had diarrhea for several days in a row, and Wang Ziwen didn't dare to eat indiscriminately anymore.

"Hey, I said we'll just do it like this in the future. If it's a boy, I'll sing the red face, and for a girl, you will sing the red face, how about it?"

Wang Ziwen blushed, and spat on Li Mu: "Come on, no one will have a baby with you."

Li Mu just said casually, sneaked a sneak attack on Wang Ziwen's face, and then calmly withdrew from the battlefield.

In the conference room, Shi Ran first made a summary of the work of the previous few months, which can be regarded as reporting to him the operation of the studio when Li Mu was away during this period. Of course, criticism is the main thing. Some people scolded him for a while. start.

"Okay, don't hang your head down. Those who don't know think our studio is a sweatshop to exploit everyone's labor." After Shi Ran finished speaking, Li Mu continued.

Shi Ran has done all the things that offended others, and the rewards for meritorious deeds will naturally be left to Li Mu. This is also a tacit understanding between them.

The management model of most companies is also the same. It is generally not good for bosses to criticize employees directly. After all, if employees feel that they have left a bad impression on the boss, they may consider changing jobs, so only executives can do things that offend others.

Sure enough, the atmosphere at the scene became less depressing.

"The project companies in those years also made some money, and all those who participated in the project received bonuses. Director Yang and Producer Xia will report the list later, and send it to everyone after the box office share arrives." Li Mu said as soon as he said this Come out, everyone is happy.

"Recently, there is an animation in the animation workshop. The publicity and distribution department has integrated all the resources on hand. This is also the first project after the animation workshop was acquired. The publicity and distribution capabilities there must not be as strong as here. Everyone go back Work hard afterwards, after this project, the Publicity Department of the Animation Workshop will be directly merged into your department, this time you cooperate well with each other, and there will be bonuses if the project is successful."

"And the bonus? If I had known earlier, I would have joined the publicity department."

"Yeah, it's so cool!"

"It's a pity that the production cycle of our film is too long."

The people in the film and television production department looked envious, but the publicity department spat: "You can pull it down, our publicity department has the most pressing tasks, and we are so busy that we don't have time to go to the toilet. If you are really envious, you can transfer here .”

This is not clear, anyway, no job is easy to do, mutual envy, no one is willing to change jobs if they are serious.

After the meeting, the Announcement Department started to operate, and soon began to contact several mainstream video sites, but the news that came back was not very good, the main problem was the cost. Very low, but what is speechless is that the prices of some Japanese comics are frighteningly high.

Li Mu really has no good way to do this. He is only a beginner in the animation industry, let alone influential. The only thing that is gratifying is that "Shushan Xianmolu" has a large number of original fans, and the market's IP value Not bad, which is why mainstream video sites are still willing to talk about it.

But even so, after a month-long see-saw negotiation, the penguin video with the highest bid was only released for 60 episodes.

This price, including various expenses, can only be regarded as capital preservation. If the cost of IP copyright is included, it will definitely lose everything.

In the end, Li Mu decided to sign an agreement with Penguin Video. The original manga change of "Shushan Xianmolu" was to start this IP and pave the way for future film and television dramas. Moreover, this is only the price of the first season. As long as the quality is excellent, it can attract viewers. The approval, don't worry about not being able to make money back in the next season.

Li Mu vaguely remembers that "Qin Shimingyue" was also a long-term "losing sale". The leading original IP in Guoman.

The news that the Penguin video of "Shushan Fairy and Demon Records" was finalized quickly spread among fans of the original book.

"It's finally coming, why am I still a little nervous?"

"Nonsense, who is not nervous, such a good IP, don't ruin it!"

"Hehe, it's hard to say, what kind of ghosts did the previous animations in the animation workshop look like?"

"I don't want anything extravagant, I just hope that this fairy tale novel will give me a Japanese manga style, then I will definitely go to the magic capital to smash the glass of the animation workshop!"

"Hey, when will Guoman stand up and be a man!"

"Forget it, I don't know how to watch anyway, Chinese comics are all hot chicken, I'd better wait for the adaptation of the film and television drama."

The information collected by the Propaganda Department through many channels shows that even the die-hard "Shushan fans" don't have much hope for this animation.

As a last resort, the promotional video could only be released in advance, so Li Mute approved a sum of money for promotional use.

A promotional video appeared on the homepage of Penguin Video. Looking at the window, it seemed to be an anime. After clicking on it, many people were attracted by the strange and ghostly scenery.

The first is a picture of flying in the air. The background music is "Yu Jian Jiang Hu".

"Fuck, this ink painting style is simply too beautiful. The scene of fighting skills should be the plot of Jiuxiao Yuntai's killing of the Holy Mother of Ghosts, right?"

"This CG is amazing. If the feature film can reach half of this level, I will chase after it!"

"Come on, my members are already hungry and thirsty!"

"Not to mention that this style of painting is my favorite, I am a fan."

"Don't think too much about the one upstairs, it's just CG, it's just like the promotional video of a movie, no matter how bad the promotional video is, it's very exciting."

The promotional video did make some fans of the original book have a little expectation for the anime version of "Shushan", but many people still have doubts about it, and some fans of Japanese comics even follow the rhythm and all kinds of slander and abuse.

With the passage of time, it finally came to the premiere day. On the first day, Penguin Video updated three episodes in one go, which also made many fans of the original work very hooked.

The anime version of "Shushan" is basically based on the plot of the novel. The first scene of the opening scene is the interaction between the protagonist Su Tianhe and the master Yunxiao Fairy.

"Fairy Yunxiao is so beautiful, it fits the original book very well."

"Yes, and the ink painting style is really suitable for Guoman. I don't understand why so many animation companies are pursuing the Japanese manga style."

"Because there are so many fans of Japanese comics, animation companies can only kneel and lick in order to make profits."

"What kind of rubbish painting style, it's all a mess, but I have the nerve to come out to meet people. Sure enough, Guoman is a hot chicken, a waste of labor and capital's time."

"Hehe, I just said that there are a lot of fans in Japanese manga, so I came out to bite people. Your master is so good, just go kneel and lick it. Why come here to spit shit all over your mouth?"

"To be reasonable, [Shushan] has exceeded my expectations. If you don't brag, you won't be black. This should be the biggest surprise that Guoman has given me over the years."

"Yeah, it almost restores the world of Shushan in my mind, among other things, this landscape, please ask for a wallpaper, I will make the desktop background."

"As a fan of the original book, I can only say that it is G to my point. It blows up the shape of Yunxiao Fairy Shu embroidery and Liuyun, and still holding a pipa half-hidden is the charm. Now Guoman always learns from those big-breasted girls in Riman. It makes me want to throw up."

"Am I the only one who wants to say that the shape of the ginseng doll is very cute? A cat with grass on its head, haha."

"By the way, the shape of this ginseng doll should be borrowed from New Year pictures, right? I remember that when I was young, my hometown sold this kind of New Year pictures."

The three-episode series aired just in time for Su Tianhe and Ginseng Baby to meet the century-old corpse refining in the Tibetan Yin Mountain, and the battle was about to break out.

"Okay, it's still a familiar taste. I remember when I was reading a novel, I was stuck here, and I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. All I could think about was this. You guys are awesome!!!"

"Why do I smell the smell of Muzi, the Great Demon King?"

"I can only say that you are too naive. The novel is better. After all, it is updated every day. This is an anime, broadcast weekly, and there is only one episode a week!"

"By the way, what is the name of this animation company? I want to send them blades!"

"It seems to be called Animation Workshop!"

"If you want to kill someone, there's only one episode a week, can't you update it faster? Is it because of a lack of money or something? How about crowdfunding?"

The animation version [Shushan] contributed more than 600 million hits in three episodes that day, which doesn’t seem to be many. After all, animation is a niche, and Chinese comics are even more niche among the niche. This achievement is already in terms of Guoman It is second to none.

But compared to Japanese manga, which has tens of thousands of hits every episode, it's not worth mentioning at all.

And there are also many Japanese manga fans who have left various negative comments below. In a word, Chinese manga are rubbish!
