"In that case, I have a project I can talk to you about with Mr. Tong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Xiao Yao saw that Tong Luo was so generous, so he remembered his other plan.

"Project, your language habits..."Tong Luo smiled, "Okay, let's talk about it." ”

"I know you're a special effects company, but just now I saw that your work was showing, not only doing special effects, but also making some animation clips for the game company, right?" Xiao Yao asked Tong Luodao.

"yes, we can do animation too. Tong Luo smiled and nodded, "What? Did you write another funny song like Fan Linxuan's "Song of the Pig", and want us to make you a matching animated video to make a MV?"

Before Fan Linxuan released the new album, she uploaded a video of "Song of the Pig" on Weibo to benefit fans, explaining that it was Xiao Yao's work, and Tong Luo also knew about it.

"It's not an animated MV, it's a regular animated movie. Xiao Yao shook his head and said.

"Movie?" At this moment, Tong Luo's eyes widened and he sat up straight unconsciously.

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded, "I don't know if you've ever watched the video of my art examination in Shenxi?"

"I've seen it, what does that have to do with animated movies?" Tong Luo asked after nodding.

"Do you remember the dance I danced when I was taking the second physical exam?" Xiao Yao reminded, "I said at the time that that the dance came from the script of an animated film I was working on. ”

"Robot WALL-E, I remember," Tong Luo said with some excitement, "So, your script has been created, and you want to cooperate with our company to make this animated movie?"

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded, "Not only is the script finished, but even the concept drawings of some of the main characters have been designed and drawn." ”

When Xiao Yao wrote this script, he felt that he might not be able to do it with the current animation technology in China, and originally wanted to sell the script to Hollywood studios through Ron Distin, the soundtrack of "TeenVigilantes", or Duran Waco, the producer. This cartoon was released in 08 in the previous life, and it has been almost ten years since now, and in this world, the difference between animation technology between China and the United States is not as big as Xiao Yao thought, after seeing the results shown to him by Tong Luo's Galaxy Special Effects Company, Xiao Yao found that he completely miscalculated the gap in animation production level between the two countries, with the current domestic animation technology, it seems that he is fully capable of making this cartoon himself, so he is ready to take it out at this time and cooperate with Tong Luo.

"I don't have these things online, if you're interested, I can ask my assistant to send them to me now. Xiao Yao continued. Since Xiao Yao came directly from school with Tong Luo, he is now alone, and there is no assistant to follow.

"Of course I'm interested. Tong Luo nodded happily.

But soon, Tong Luo said with some hesitation, "But making animated movies is a very money-burning thing, and it is very common for an animated film to be done for three or five years, although we can do animation, but after all, it is only a small special effects company, if our company does it ourselves, manpower and material resources, mainly financial resources, we are afraid it will be difficult to support it." ”

"I'm not just selling the script to you. Xiao Yao said, "In addition to writing scripts and participating in the design of character images, I will also invest myself." Of course, my investment is limited, and even if I am added, it may not be enough. But since it is a movie, it is also very common for multiple investors to co-produce it. We can start by making some snippet samples and then use them as a credential to find other investors. Anyway, I didn't ask for a time to make it and arrange it to be released in theaters, so we can do it slowly. ”

This makes a lot of sense. Tong Luo nodded unconsciously.

In that case, I'll call my assistant and ask her to send me the relevant materials first, and we'll talk about it after we read the script. Xiao Yao said, taking out his mobile phone.

Fang is still renting an apartment near Shenxi with Pei Minyi, which is a three-bedroom and one-living room, and in addition to the two of them living together, a room is specially reserved for Xiao Yao. Of course, this room is not reserved for Xiao Yao to live in, but for him to put things. For example, several musical instruments that Xiao Yao may use but do not use often, electronic music equipment, newly made discs and guitars made by himself, these things that are inconvenient to put in the school dormitory, Xiao Yao are directly placed in the residence of the two of them. This also includes some manuscripts of songs and scripts that Xiao Yao has completed or is working on.

Fang still has gone to Yanjing to discuss the date and process of the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal with the Spring Festival Gala program team, and left Pei Minyi in Shencheng to help Xiao Yao, so Xiao Yao also directly called his new assistant and makeup artist Pei Minyi, and asked her to go to her room to come to Tong Luo's company with the script and character image design drawings of "Robot Wall-E".

I finally worked at the New Year's Eve party, but during the New Year's Day holiday, Xiao Yao got rid of his assistant again, and went to the street with a DV to shoot the MV with a few friends, which made Pei Minyi, an assistant and makeup artist, very nonexistent, and was frustrated by such a boss during this time. When she received Xiao Yao's call, Pei Minyi happened to be bored in a daze at her residence, so as soon as she received Xiao Yao's call, Pei Minyi immediately went to Xiao Yao's room to find what she needed, and rushed over.

After Pei Minyi delivered the things, Xiao Yao first showed Tong Luo the script and character concept map, and then talked carefully to him about his thoughts on this animated movie.

After reading Xiao Yao's script and character concept map, Tong Luo already liked this story and this animated movie very much, and after listening to Xiao Yao's thoughts, Tong Luo also made up his mind to make this animated movie.

Because there was an original version in his previous life, Xiao Yao's description was not only very specific and detailed, but also very vivid. In Tong Luo's ears, Xiao Yao not only created the script and character image, it was simply that a formed movie was already in his mind, and all they had to do was to restore the movie in Xiao Yao's mind. In this way, Tong Luo also has a little more confidence in making this animated movie. After all, the more specific Xiao Yao's description and requirements are, the less useless work they do in their creation.

For example, some people who make a two-hour movie may need to shoot seven or eight, or even nearly ten hours of footage, to edit, but if Xiao Yao already has the finished product in his head and knows what he wants, maybe only three or four hours of footage will be enough. All these saved are time, manpower, and material resources... To put it bluntly, it's all money.

After an afternoon of detailed discussions, Tong Luo immediately decided to make this animated film with Xiao Yao, and directly put the title of director on Xiao Yao's head. According to Xiao Yao, their company will first produce some animation clips as models, and then find other investors to invest in joint production.

Xiao Yao accepted the title of director sent by Tong Luo, but it also showed that it was impossible for him to devote himself wholeheartedly to such a thing. He can come over regularly to check the progress of the production and give his own opinions, but he can't keep an eye on the whole process of the production in their company.

Tong Luo knows more about Xiao Yao's situation, so he also understands Xiao Yao's approach. After everything was agreed, Tong Luo called the director of the Ministry of Commerce and signed a contract with Xiao Yao on the spot to cooperate in the production of this animated film.

The cooperation was negotiated and the contract was signed, but the project did not start immediately. Although Tong Luo wants to make an animated movie, he doesn't plan to lose his previous business. He also had to ask the company's employees to complete the next few tasks on hand first, and then redeploy the company's personnel and resources, assign a small number of people to be responsible for the regular business to maintain the company's basic operations, and recruit some more people to devote themselves to the production of the animated film together with the employees he selected.

Xiao Yao had no opinion on Tong Luo's arrangement. Making this movie is his whim, and he is not in a hurry, and he has been busy recently, he has a final exam soon, and he will return to Yanjing after the winter vacation to prepare for the Spring Festival Gala. Although it is said that it is not good to be here all the time, but once the project starts, he will definitely need to spend some effort on it, and not starting to make this animated film in the near future is something that Xiao Yao can't ask for.

However, although the animated movie didn't start immediately, Tong Luo didn't forget the reason why Xiao Yao was looking for him in the first place. The special effects in that MV are not too troublesome for Tong Luo's special effects company, and Tong Luo also asked several employees in the company to pause their work and help Xiao Yao make the special effects he needed for him first. It was also used as a meeting gift for the first cooperation with Xiao Yao. Since they are partners, Xiao Yao accepted Tong Luo's free MV special effects.

Almost two hours later, the special effects that Xiao Yao needed were ready. The initial goal was achieved, and the cooperation had been negotiated, and Xiao Yao had nothing else to do, so he took the opportunity to say goodbye.

When he came, Xiao Yao came directly from the school in Tong Luo's car. Now that Pei Minyi is here, there is something to be busy in Tong Luo's company, Xiao Yao no longer bothered Tong Luo, and left Tong Luo's special effects company with Pei Minyi.

"Boss, you talk about cooperation by yourself, don't you need Sister Zhen's agent to be present?" Sitting in the car, Pei Minyi couldn't help but ask Xiao Yaodao.

When he came to Shencheng from Yanjing, Fang and Pei Minyi came by plane, but before the studio allocated a car to Xiao Yao for Fang to still drive, and now Xiao Yao and Fang are still coming to Shencheng, and the studio did not take back the car and rearrange it, but sent someone to drive the car to Shencheng and continue to use it for Fang Yi and Xiao Yao. The ultimate purpose of this car is to serve Xiao Yao, and Fang still returned to Yanjing by himself, so he left the car to Pei Minyi to drive.

"It's not all like this," Xiao Yao smiled, "Isn't it still going to Yanjing, just signing a contract, and the conditions are all up to me, do you want to fly back and fly over again for this? I can't hand it over to you, the assistant and makeup artist, to help me negotiate, so I can only come by myself." ”

"yes. Pei Minyi nodded and started the car.

"Speaking of which..."Xiao Yao suddenly turned his head to look at Pei Minyi and said, "Why don't you also go to get an agent's license and be my agent part-time?"

"Huh, me?" Pei Minyi was startled, pointed to her nose and said, "I'll be your agent too?"

"Look at the road," Xiao Yao stretched out his hand to hold the steering wheel that Pei Minyi had crooked because of surprise just now.

"Oh. Pei Minyi simply stopped the car with a foot on the brake, turned her head to look at Xiao Yao and said, "Boss, are you serious? You want two agents by yourself, and still Sister still has no opinion?"

"This..."Xiao Yao realized that there were also economic problems involved, so he touched his nose and said, "I just said this casually for the sake of being lazy." However, you can also probe the tone of the conversation, and if she has no opinion, you can also try to get an agent license. Of course, if she has an opinion, you can also take the test, and if you don't want to be my agent, you may be able to be the agent of other stars in the future. There are many ways to get multiple certificates, and you won't be a makeup artist and assistant for me for the rest of your life, will you?"

"Forget it, I'm going to continue with my promising career as a makeup artist and assistant. Pei Minyi thought about it, shook her head, and started the car again.

But before the car could start, someone came over, slapped the front cover of the car and shouted, "Hey, how do you drive? Dance with the car? Do you have such a sharp turn? Do you know if the car behind you can easily crash into it? The people inside will get down for me!"
