Chapter 268: A Week Later (Part I)
"The House of the Lost Hemp", "The Old Man and Z", between the two works, who do you want?
Well, there is another reason why Lu Shichen is so entangled, although both works are classics, but it is still a line away from the opening of Qinglan Studio in Lu Shichen's heart, and the classics among the classics are still one line away.
Since there was a gap in the line, Lu Shichen wanted more choices and asked, "Oshii-kun"
"It's still being perfected, so there's no plan for it yet. "Mamoru Oshii is very serious in his own right, not to mention that when he has a straight face, he is even more serious.
"What about you, Miyazaki-kun?" Lu Shichen turned his head and asked, "Why don't you have a plan?"
"I've always had a manga ready to pitch, but I didn't have a chance, and I always wanted to say a little more perfect, a little more perfect. Hayao Miyazaki took out a manuscript from his lounge and handed it to Lu Shichen, Satoshi Kon, and the others.
"It's Japanese, Principal Lu may not be able to see clearly, let me explain. Hayao Miyazaki said, "Nausicaa, an innocent girl who grew up in the Valley of the Wind, has been burdened with the fate of saving the world from the beginning. She is the embodiment of hope ......"
The moment Lu Shichen looked at the manuscript, the whole person was Spartan, and he didn't hear anything in Miyazaki's mouth, and his mind was in chaos.
The painting style of the needle and pen sketch is not wrong, even if the name is Japanese like "Wind Valley のナウシカ", Lu Shichen also recognized it very accurately, the girl of the Wind Valley.
Audiences in Chinese mainland prefer to call it Valley of the Winds!
Not only is it an exaggeration to say that the Valley of the Wind has led the direction of Japanese animation for at least the next fifteen years, and the heroine Nausicaa has occupied the top spot in the list of the best popular characters in the history of animation for ten consecutive years.
So that's not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the votes usually exceed the second place by four or five times, and the second place is pulled by more than a dozen streets, and this sentence is really not just talk.
Valley of the Wind is famous as Hayao Miyazaki's work. It profoundly and sharply debunks the themes of man and nature, war and the world.
Although the old man is not bad with Z and the unmachi house, it is still a little short of the Valley of the Wind.
"In the end, the king worm is gone, and that's the whole story of the Valley of the Wind, although the details are still up for debate. "Hayao Miyazaki's extremely brief words go through the entire story of the manga.
However, it is of no avail. Lu Shichen didn't listen at all, he was thinking in his mind, hasn't he been protecting the environment recently?
"Bang bang. Lu Shichen, Satoshi Kon, Mamoru Oshii, and Katsuhiro Otomo applauded, and the characters and plot of the anime are good, you can see it by reading the comics.
"Very good manga, although my Japanese is not very good, but I like to listen to your description and the characters. Lu Shichen's dark eyes stared at Miyazaki and said, "Does Miyazaki-kun have any ideas to adapt him into an anime movie?"
Miyazaki was stunned. The reason for his stunned is very simple, the classic of the Valley of the Wind is in Lu Shichen's mind, and now it is the comic version, so looking at the works of Satoshi Kon and Katsuhiro Otomo, it is not much inferior in terms of storytelling, he doesn't understand why Lu Shichen will directly choose his comic after reading it.
Compared to Satoshi Kon, and Katsuhiro Otomo's expressions are a little bleak, and their anime items are denied. Then the others were launched, even if it was their head anime. As long as it is in people's hearts, it will inevitably be a little uncomfortable.
But before their emotions could be brought into play, they heard Lu Shichen continue: "At the same time, the animation film project of "The Old Man and Z" and "The House of the Lost Hemp" was also established, and according to the production order of one, two, two, and two, I want to make the top three on the animation box office list next year all the movies of our Qinglan Studio." ”
At the same time, three animation film projects were established......
Hayao Miyazaki and Satoshi Kon were all shocked, compared to the thirteen-minute short film completed in seven days. That's madness, even today's famous. Pixar Animation Studio, BONES Studio, SUNRISE Art Studio, etc. do not have this kind of courage, not to mention that there are three films to dominate the top three lists, which is really a bit of a fool's dream.
It's really a blockbuster?!
For such a whimsical Lu Shichen, who is so crazy that he is dreaming. The attitude of Satoshi Kon, Katsuhiro Otomo, Mamoru Oshii, and Hayao Miyazaki is...... I really appreciate it!
"Otomo and I are both doing anime for the first time, and we used to be assistant directors for Miyazaki, will it be ......?" Satoshi Kon, while excited, expressed his concerns.
"Let it go, both the story and the character design are very good, and the combination of movie and anime shooting techniques, I think it's very novel. Lu Shichen patted Jin Min: "It will definitely succeed." ”
Lu Shichen believes in Satoshi Jin, he really believes in Satoshi Jin, a character like him who is equal to half of his success as soon as he steps into the anime circle, there will be no failure at all, God is unfair, some people are born to eat this bowl of rice, but some people are useless no matter how hard they try.
"Otomo too, don't think about funds, don't worry about doing it boldly. ”
There is a saying in the Warring States Policy: The soldier dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases herself, of course Otomo Katsuyo and Kontoshi don't know what the Warring States Policy is, but Lu Shichen's trust touched the two very much, and they stood up in unison and bowed heavily to Lu Shichen.
Thinking about more than ten years later, the four of them have become giants in the animation industry, no matter who goes out to work alone, they can succeed, but without exception, the four are still in the same studio, and when reporters ask the reason, the four always laugh and don't answer.
The trust given by Lu Shichen is the most solid foundation.
"In a word. Lu Shichen looked at the four of Miyazaki and said word by word: "Qinglan is a classic!"
is full of pride, and other people's advertisements boast that they are all produced by xx, and they must be high-quality products, but now they are directly classics.
What is a classic?
Now that the word classic is used a lot, the gold content has decreased, but it is not something that can be said casually, and there is no doubt that Lu Shichen's confident words to a certain point have greatly encouraged the four of Miyazaki.
"Three anime projects were established at the same time, even if it was 122 production sequences, but the current studio personnel are far from enough. Miyazaki remained calm.
He didn't ask for any more people because there were enough people in the studio at the moment.
"It just so happens that the Animation Academy is currently recruiting students, and they all have painting skills, and even animation production skills and comic experience, about 40 people, I think they should be able to help. Lu Shichen said.
Miyazaki nodded, and the problem was solved.
"Hmm. ”
Lu Shichen will leave after arranging it, and the three consecutive axes of Qinglan Studio will see what people in the animation industry have to say next year. (To be continued.) )
