"There shouldn't be much of a problem with the actors, but I'm afraid it will take some time to practice." "To match the movements of the characters in the original book, they need at least a few weeks of training."

In the hotel room, everyone from the Black Pearl Company who had just arrived in Japan gathered together for an impromptu discussion meeting, Ed Wilkes and Chris Webb flipped through the actor information selected by Li Xiaole, and they all nodded with satisfaction, I didn't expect Li Xiaole to be able to do so many things in three days, and all the actors' interviews have been completed.

"Then we should be ready to start filming." As the person in charge of Black Sails Studio, Wu Wei couldn't help but be extremely excited, this was the first time that their studio had independently created a completely animated film.

"I'm afraid this won't work......" Li Xiaole shook his head: "I haven't gotten the consent of the original author Inoue Yuhiko yet, so I'll have to wait and see." ”

"What?" Everyone was stunned when they listened, and then they all looked at me, I looked at you, crying and laughing, and even signed a contract with the actor without even getting the copyright...... This director is too reckless.

"Li Sang~~!! Li Sang~~!! ”

Li Xiaole was sitting in a meeting with everyone when he heard the excited roar of the second palace outside the door, and smiled at Maki Horikita, who immediately went to open the door.

As soon as the panting Ninomiya came in, he roared and screamed: "Li San~~Inoue-sensei~~Inoue-sensei~~ He called just now~~ He said that he agreed to join our crew as an animation producer~!! ”

"Well, then you can move on to the rest of the work." Li Xiaole nodded, smiled and clapped his hands to encourage everyone, he was not surprised at all, if Inoue didn't use his storyboard, he was afraid that he would go crazy...... No matter how picky he is, it is impossible for him to be dissatisfied with his "future efforts".

Wu Wei and the others were also a little stunned on the spot, what is the situation...... Just said that the original author disagreed, how could there be good news all of a sudden, the three of them all breathed a sigh of relief, anyway, this time they finally didn't fall into an embarrassing situation, they thought that Li Xiaole was deliberately joking to tease them, maybe he had already reached an agreement with Inoue Yuhiko.

Only the side of Horikita Maki admired Li Xiaole more and more in his heart, this Xiaole-chan is really a god, how does he know that Inoue Yuhiko must promise him?

After explaining the work and everyone went out, the second palace pulled Li Xiaole aside and whispered: "Li Sang, there is still bad news......

"What? That Isayama didn't find it? Li Xiaole frowned slightly.

"No, I found ......" Ninomiya raised his eyes, picked up the information in his hand and said: "I'll introduce you to this person first, Isayama was born in 1986, born in the School of Manga of Kyushu Designer Academy, and the Shueisha editorial department gave him a rating of 2 for drawing power, 3 for composition power, 4 for story, 1 character for 1, and 4 for originality...... The maximum score is 5, which is a ...... in the lower average among the authors who submitted."

"Hmm." Li Xiaole nodded disapprerovingly, this Isayama Chuang's weakness is precisely his strength, and the painting style is distinctive.

"And his biggest problem is that his story is not in the style of a shonen manga at all...... Ninomiya said with some uneasiness: "A short story submitted by this guy turned out to be the ending where all the characters died...... It does not conform to the three basic principles of "friendship", "hard work" and "victory" of shonen manga at all, and it is an outright evil comic...... So the editorial department wanted him to change his style, but he insisted on his opinion and went to Kodansha to submit his manuscript, but he was also not hired......"

Even as a rookie editor, Ninomiya can still see that this rookie manga artist is quite problematic, and he doesn't understand why Li Xiaole is looking for him specifically.

"Ah, this guy can't do it......" Maki Horikita shook her head again and again as she listened.

"Where is he now?" After Li Xiaole roughly understood the situation, he didn't see any surprise at all, but just asked.

"It's just outside...... Ninomiya hesitated, "Li Sang, in fact, I can find a better candidate." ”

"Let him in." Li Xiaole snapped his fingers.

Ninomiya was very helpless, so he could only open the door, and pulled a thin man in and introduced: "This is the rookie writer Isayama~"

"Hello, Isayama~~" Li Xiaole shook hands with the person in front of him, and looked at him carefully, he was very young, very handsome, very thin like a paper man, but Wen Mei had heavy dark circles, and with the long hair that had a stroke, it could be described as "very girly", to a bit like L in "Death Note".

Isayama used his deep eyes, looked at him curiously, shook his hand vigilantly, and did show an expectant expression on his face: "Li San~~ Hello, I'm your fan, my painting is really good, and I can be fully qualified for the work of storyboard~~~" spoke weakly, as if someone had kicked the valve.

"Let's sit down and talk." Li Xiaole smiled and asked Maki Horikita to bring him a cup of hot tea, Maki Horikita put down the teacup and couldn't help but whisper to Li Xiaole: "This is the genius painter you fancied...... It's too empty, it doesn't look like a man at all...... "Why does this guy look like he's going to die at any moment......

"Of course, this is the best manga artist among the younger generation in Japan." Li Xiaole smiled and whispered back.

...... best cartoonist? Maki Horikita couldn't laugh or cry when she heard it, can such a guy who blows down in the wind be able to work as a professional cartoonist? I really don't know what Li Xiaole's vision is.

"Isayama, did you bring your manuscript, can you show it to me?" Li Xiaole said with a smile.

"Of course~~" Isayama quickly took out a stack of manuscripts from his bag and handed them over.

Maki Horikita, who was next to him, saw the first bloody scene of a giant with his big mouth open and biting a human being, and immediately screamed "ah".

"Hey~~The words are very visually impactful~~ The name is "Attack on Titan"~! It's cool~~" Isayama smirked, but his expression was indescribably gloomy...... It makes people look very cautious and panicked, and Maki Horikita and Ninomiya can't help but shudder.

"Hmm...... It's very good, the world construction is both grand and distinctive, the details are very perfect, but the painting is a little worse, and the characters don't come out. Li Xiaole looked at it, then got up and took out a thick stack of manuscripts from the drawer and threw it in front of Isayama: "Look at this, I have made a little revision on the basis of your original manuscript." ”

Isayama was stunned for a moment, then picked it up and flipped through it, and immediately opened his mouth in surprise, these storyboards in his hand are his comics, but although the outline is the same, the characters, plot and dialogue have been re-sculpted, and they are more than 10,000 times better than his sketches...... It's like he provided an idea to make an airplane, but he didn't have the technical ability to fully make the idea, and Li Xiaole actually drew a drawing of a Broadcasting 747 based on this idea......

"Do you think it's okay?" Li Xiaole blew the hot tea in the teacup and asked him softly.

"It's really...... It's much better than mine......" Isayama said with a wry smile: "Your painting skills are so superb, what else do you need someone like me to do......" What are you kidding, this kind of storyboard level can be his master...... He even wanted to come and beg for food......

"If you think it's okay, I'll be your script writer and serialize this manga on Shonen Jump, can you see it?" Li Xiaole took a sip of tea and said calmly with a face.

"Huh!?" Isayama thought he had misheard.

"Li Sang said that he wanted to cooperate with you to serialize it on "Shonen Jump", and we, Shueisha, have agreed." Ninomiya repeated with a dry cough next to him.

"Yes...... Of course...... But can I really serialize on Jump? Do you have to be serialized in the short story of "Akamaru Jump" to get the first popularity? Isayama Chuang's face is sluggish, and he feels that this thing is very unreal, you must know that he has been submitting since 2006, and he has been running into walls everywhere for three years, and has been rejected by the manga club no less than 50 times, how can he publish it on "Shonen Jump" at once this time?

"Let's go, let's go to Shueisha now." Li Xiaole stood up and put on his coat.

"What are you doing stupidly~Keep up~" Maki Horikita dragged the stunned Isayama Sou, and muttered: "This guy is stupid, he can still be a cartoonist...... The threshold for this industry is too low. ”

Ninomiya drove three people to the Shueisha building, this time there seemed to be more protests, after parking the car in the underground parking lot, the four walked into the building, this time Li Xiaole came here again, obviously received a lot of attention, but it seemed to be full of hostile eyes.

"What's wrong? Isn't the atmosphere right? Maki Horikita asked with some vigilance, "Why do these people look at us as if we were killing our father's enemy?" ”

"Last time Li Sanglai came, he asked his new comic to be serialized in "Shonen Jump", and he asked for double the number of pages, you must know that this treatment is only available in the works of Toriyama and Fujian...... It's normal for everyone to be unable to look at it, after all, for our new work, we have to cut two other works of the editorial team in half this week......" Ninomiya sighed and explained, this time he had already offended all his colleagues, and if he didn't succeed, even if he wasn't fired by his superiors, he wouldn't be able to stay at Shueisha......

thought that Li Xiaole might be a blockbuster this time, but he didn't expect him to choose such a bad jujube as Isayama......

Under the leadership of the counter secretary, Li Xiaole walked through the editorial hall and came directly to the president's office, and Shueisha president Hideki Yamashita immediately greeted him.
