The animated masterpiece "Shrek" was released, and it achieved good results in both word-of-mouth and box office, with a global box office of $580 million, becoming the second highest-grossing animated film, which immediately blinded the eyes of many people in the film industry, especially Mr. William, the president of Disney, who is famous for his cartoons.

"Shrek" has a total investment of 50 million, box office revenue exceeds ten times the amount of investment, a net profit of 200 million, and a yield of 400 percent.

Danny, who was an old rival with William, was happy for many days, and he said to Fang Yang: "Dear Yang, thank you for helping me deal a heavy blow to William's arrogance, didn't you see his embarrassing appearance when he was questioned by reporters, it's really cool, hahaha." ”

Fang Yang smiled: "We are good brothers, I won't help you who you help!" "Last time in the 911 incident, Danny's nephew, who was the captain of the fire department, could be said to have saved the lives of Yu Zhiyu and others, and Fang Yang counted this favor on his head, so he decided to take him to play a few more.

He took out a script and said: "Taking advantage of the fact that this cartoon is a big hit and has hot popularity, let's continue to make a sequel!" ”

Danny took the script of "Shrek 2", and without reading it, he smiled and said: "Great, Yang, you are really a genius, it takes at least a few years for others to make a sequel, and you will connect it immediately without delay." ”

Fang Yang shrugged and said: "The fact that I am a genius has long been verified, I didn't praise me for your words, by the way, are you interested in directing the sequel yourself?" Let William see what you're capable of animating. ”

Danny was pleasantly surprised and said, "Would you like me to direct?" Yang, I promise you that I will definitely work harder and more seriously to direct this sequel. ”

Fang Yang nodded, Danny is not a professional director, but his old profession is to make Zuò animation, it is said that he is still the same brother as William, and for some reason he has become an old rival, it can be seen from "Shrek" that he is still capable, he was the assistant director at the time, Fang Yang threw most of the work to him to do, and generally did a good job.

The cartoon "Shrek" brought Fang Yang a net profit of 75 million, and he will continue to invest in cartoons after tasting the sweetness, because in the history of Hollywood films before his rebirth, there were many cartoons that performed better at the box office than most live-action films, and "Shrek 2" is one of them.

However, cartoons have relatively high requirements for technical level, and if the animation effect produced by zuò is rougher, the box office will naturally be greatly affected, and the big hit of "Shrek" this time is also related to the high level of DreamWorks Animation.

Tian Xiaopeng's team participated in the whole production of this cartoon, and the Chinese are very smart, especially in terms of imitation, and after the production of this cartoon, they also learned seventy or eighty, which is a significant improvement compared to the previous level.

This time "Shrek 2" is still the original team involved in the production of Zuò, Fang Yang gave the honor of director to Danny, I believe Danny will be more enthusiastic about Tian Xiaopeng and them, as long as they participate in the production process again, I believe that their animation production level can be improved greatly.

When Fang Yang was about to leave DreamWorks, Tian Xiaopeng caught up and said, "Boss, I have an idea in my heart that I want to tell you. ”

Fang Yang naturally knew that his idea was "The Return of the Great Sage", at this time, Fang Yang was more familiar with the script of this cartoon than this original creator, so he nodded and said, "Okay, give you five minutes, long story short." ”

Tian Xiaopeng spoke at the fastest speed: "Boss, I participated in the Journey to the West cartoon filmed by CCTV three years ago, and at that time I had a bold idea, I want to shoot a three-dimensional animation of Journey to the West, but I think there are many places in the original Journey to the West that cannot be understood, and some values are also in conflict with modern people, so I want to shoot a different Journey to the West, which is more in line with the values and appreciation habits of modern people, and has magical characteristics, It will allow the audience to follow the growth footsteps of Sun Wukong and Tang Seng, and convincingly understand their mental journey of learning scriptures"

Fang Yang interrupted him and said: "Okay, okay, your idea is good, when you finish the production of Shrek 2, I will invest in letting you shoot your Journey to the West and let you be the director." ”

Tian Xiaopeng said excitedly: "Really? Thank you boss for your appreciation, I will definitely do my best for you. ”

Fang Yang said: "You can write the script slowly, and then find a professional screenwriter to polish it." ”

Tian Xiaopeng took out a notebook from his arms and said, "I have already written the script, please take a look at it." ”

Fang Yang flipped through the introduction of the script: For more than 400 years after the havoc in the Heavenly Palace, the Monkey King has become a legend, in Chang'an City, where mountain demons are rampant, the orphan Jiang Liuer and the footing monk Fa Ming depend on each other, and the little boy Chang Cháng is fascinated by the Monkey King who is making havoc in the Heavenly Palace. One day, the mountain demon came to rob the boy and girl, Jiang Liuer rescued a little girl, provoked the mountain demon to chase and kill, he ran all the way into the Five Elements Mountain, and blindly lifted the seal of Sun Wukong by mistake. After Wukong was free, he just wanted to go back to Huaguo Mountain, but he had no choice but to have the seal on his wrist unsolved, and he owed Jiang Liuer a favor, so he reluctantly escorted him back to Chang'an City. Along the way, Bajie and Bailongma also appeared due to fate, but they were either downtrodden or demonic, and the heroes were no longer heroes. In order to snatch the girl, the demon king laid a nightclub puzzle, but found that Wukong's mana was lost, and he easily captured the girl. Wukong is reluctant to save the girl again, and Jiang Liuer decides to save herself. On the day of the total solar eclipse, in the Hanging Temple, the demon king was about to throw the boy and girl into the Dan furnace, but Jiang Liu'er rushed into the dojo, and the final battle began.

Fang Yang had already read this "The Return of the Great Sage", and at this time he looked at the manuscript of the original work, and found that there were many places where many plots were different, and after careful comparison, it was natural that the plot of the finished movie was better than this manuscript, and it must have been revised many times, so Fang Yang unceremoniously took out a pen and revised this manuscript.

Originally, it was said that he would only be given five minutes, but it took an hour, in this hour, Fang Yang helped Tian Xiaopeng revise the script according to the content of the finished movie, Tian Xiaopeng stood next to watch him revise it, he praised: "The boss is really a peerless genius who has not come out for thousands of years, I really admire you so much." ”

Fang Yang smiled and said in his heart: What is there to admire, I just copied the movie you made. (To be continued.) )
