Chapter 185: Guoman's highest achievement.

With the popularity of hundreds of interviews, the controversy caused in the society has become bigger and bigger, Li Mu's fame has also risen, and the public's impression of him has gradually changed from an entertainment star to an academic star, and even some businesses have invited him to participate in some academic lectures.

Of course, the academic community still does not recognize him, and every day you can see some experts and scholars criticizing his understanding of Journey to the West.

As Li Mu's alma mater, CUHK can be regarded as a strong supporter of Li Mu, and a number of professors have praised hundreds of interviews on Weibo, which is obviously supporting Li Mu.

For He Chunxiang and Li Ping, all this is like a dream, the son was on CCTV three sets during the Spring Festival, and now he suddenly landed on CCTV ten sets, and it is still a hundred interviews, you must know that although the ratings of CCTV ten sets have not been very good, the meaning is not ordinary, science and education channel! That's fun?

Those who can give lectures on the science and education channel are either university professors or senior lecturers of famous universities, and hundreds of interviews are among the best.

Li Ping is now proud to go to work every day, even if Li Mu won the title of King of Singers before, Li Ping was never so excited.

In his opinion, this is what his son should do, and he even made a rare call to Li Mu and asked him to do more serious things and less useless.

made Li Mu have a question mark in his stomach.

He Chunxiang is also like soaking in honey these days, and when she goes out to buy vegetables, she often stays in the supermarket for a while, because every day at that point, the big screen at the door of the book counter will play a video of Li Mu talking about Journey to the West, and there are many people who can see it, and I even heard that the sales of Journey to the West have increased a lot.

On the other hand, the three-month negotiations were finally completed, and Muzi Studio spent 860 million yuan to obtain 86% of the shares of the animation studio, becoming a well-deserved major shareholder.

Wang Ziwen suddenly realized at this time that the mysterious person who had been buying the animation workshop was actually Li Mu?

My colleague asked curiously: "What's wrong with you? This day I lost my soul, the company was acquired and it has nothing to do with us, where are our junior staff not working? This company is so generous, maybe our welfare will be better." ”

"Yes~~~" Wang Ziwen smiled absentmindedly and dealt with her colleagues.

When she returned home in the evening, Li Mu found that Wang Ziwen's state was a little wrong, and she couldn't help but be funny when she asked.

"Where do you want to go, this is a pure business activity, the company wants to develop and expand the business, and the acquisition of a company is the most time-saving. ”

It took a while to persuade her to dispel her concerns.

The next day, Li Mu thought about it and planned to meet with the management team of the animation studio.

Shi Ran said: "It's okay, if you don't come forward, these people are really a little worried." ”

The appointment was about the local cuisine of a Chinese restaurant, but for both parties, it didn't matter what they ate, and the senior management of the animation studio, who owned the shares, were all present, and they were a little nervous waiting for the arrival of the legendary big boss.

The appearance of Li Mu and Shi Ran made the executives present tense their nerves.

"Come, sit, don't be nervous, I'm just going to invite everyone to a light meal today. Li Mu greeted.

Of course, he didn't believe it himself, how could these executives take it seriously, with a smile on their faces, but in fact, even their breathing was cautious, this was their first meeting, people are actually superstitious about the first impression, the more confident people are, the more important they are to the first impression.

Although they had long known that the big boss behind the acquisition of the animation studio was Li Mu, when this young man appeared in front of them, the executives couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, he was too young.

"Let's serve the food first, let's talk while we eat. The dishes were set in advance, and Li Mu took advantage of the cooking to start looking at everyone.

There were not many people, only six people, and they were not very old, all in their early thirties.

"I look at the information, you should all be alumni, right?"

"Yes,The animation workshop was founded together after we graduated from college.,It's just,Hey,Guoman is not easy to do!"

Speaking of these six people, they are all frustrated, it stands to reason that they can start from scratch and get the animation workshop to this point today in just over ten years, and their ability is absolutely undoubted.

It's just that the longer I stay in this industry, the more I can feel the helplessness of being a national man.

When the dish came up, Li Mu beckoned everyone to eat, and he took the lead unceremoniously.

Until the dessert, Li Mucai said: "I have seen the works of the animation workshop since its establishment ten years ago, and there are indeed some high-quality Chinese comics in the early stage, but why has the painting style been moving closer to the Japanese comic style in recent years?"

"Mr. Li,Now the whole Guoman market is like this,A large number of domestic anime fans are brought up by Riman,In the eyes of many anime fans, Riman is the standard,In the past ten years, there have been a lot of people in the circle who have done Chinese comic style,They've all died one after another,We can't just try to integrate the painting style of Riman,Tell your own story。 ”

Speaking of this, everyone was helpless, and Li Mu could understand the pain of making compromises in order for the animation workshop to survive.

"Then have you ever thought about making a Chinese comic in the true sense, whether it is the style of painting or the core?" Li Mu said.

Everyone was shocked: "Mr. Li, of course we have this idea, but the market doesn't allow it, you can go and see the comments on the market, hey............"

Li Mu waved his hand and said: "The market doesn't need you to think about it, we have a professional publicity and distribution department, we have a way to deal with some malicious bad reviews, you just need to tell me, do you want to do it, do you have the confidence to make a big movie similar to Havoc in the Heavenly Palace." ”

Hearing the five words of Guoman's big movie, everyone's eyes lit up, I originally thought that Li Mu just wanted to do Guoman animation, but I didn't expect his ambition to be so big.

The four words of making trouble in the heavenly palace shocked everyone's eyes.

"Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" is a monument in the history of Chinese animation, the most terrifying thing is in 1961, when there was no computer and could only be drawn by hand, the magic capital art film studio made a classic masterpiece that could be passed down for decades.

Among them, the image of Sun Wukong's peachy face, as well as the strong ink and landscape painting style, and even the Peking Opera soundtrack are enough to make people intoxicated.

It can be said that "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" is not only the childhood memory of several generations, but also the mountain that Chinese animation practitioners will always look up to.

It is no exaggeration to say that the level of animation in China at that time was not inferior to that of the United States and Japan, and even led the trend of the United States and Japan.

In the 40s of the last century, the Wan brothers produced Asia's first animated feature "Iron Fan Princess", and even Osamu Tezuka, the originator of Japanese animation and manga, gave up studying medicine after watching this animation and decided to engage in animation creation. He later visited China and drew cartoons of Astro Boy and Monkey King getting together.

On the one hand, "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" is the pride of Chinese animation practitioners, and on the other hand, it has become an eternal pain in their hearts, because since then, there has never been a masterpiece in Huaxia that can compete with American and Japanese animation.

Li Mu's saying "making trouble in the Heavenly Palace" was more like a whip in their hearts.

"Yes, why not, as long as we are given time and funds, we will definitely be able to make a boutique that can compete with Riman!"

Everyone only felt that their blood was surging, and they made military orders one after another.

Li Mu nodded, fortunately, they didn't kneel for too long and become numb, as long as there is still shame and blood in their hearts, there is still hope to stand up again.

"It's not enough to have blood, have you ever thought about where to start?"

Everyone glanced at each other and nodded heavily: "Mr. Li, in fact, we were inspired when we watched your big talk Journey to the West, originally I wanted to make an anime, since you can trust us, why don't we take this as the theme? ”

Li Mu scratched his face a little embarrassed: "You didn't say that to cater to me, right?"

"No, Mr. Li, this is absolutely true, we have already established this project, and the animation workshop has not been acquired at that time. ”

"Okay, if you know what to expect. Li Mu nodded.

Everyone had a good meal, Li Mu saw the attitude of the management team of the animation workshop, and they also gained enough trust from Li Mu.

Almost half a month later, Li Mu got a detailed script and character sketches, which were a bit similar to the monkeys in the return of the Great Sage in his impression.

The script is quite good, basically inheriting the ridiculous tone of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong was reincarnated as a little ruffian, idle all day long, causing trouble, and Tang Seng is still a monk, but he is a wine and meat monk, and Zhu Bajie has become a butcher, and Monk Sha carries the burden and sells straw shoes.

After that, it's a more clichΓ© story of the four masters and apprentices redeeming themselves, and on the whole, the rhythm of the script is quite good, but in the end, the anime still depends on whether the style of the painting can control the story, just like the acting skills of the actors, a good actor can save a bad movie, such as Huang Qiusheng, and a bad actor can ruin everything, such as ...........

"This script is good, it can be established, and if the funds are not enough, it can be funded. Li Mu handed the document back to Shi Randao.

Shi Ran asked, "Do you need to send a producer to follow up?"

Li Mu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, we are all laymen in anime, and professional things are still left to professional people." ”

The boss expressed his position, but Shi Ran didn't insist.

Li Mu thought for a while and asked, "In those years, did the filming go well?"

"It's quite smooth, Director Yang praised the two girls and praised them for their spirituality. Shi Ran said with a smile.

"That's good. Li Mu showed a relieved smile like an old father, he spent a lot of energy on these three girls.

"By the way, the song I promised to give Liu Qinmei hasn't been given to her yet............"
