Chapter 592: The Work or the Periphery First
Shangguan Jin and the others didn't know that Zhang Qiuxi and Hongdou almost played a game at home, but they were also a little dumbfounded when they saw them holding a bunch of dolls, and couldn't help asking: "Is there really such a thing?" β
"Sort of, come on, come on, one for each person." Zhang Qiuxi also thought it was unnecessary at first, but after Hongdou said that, he felt that it didn't matter whether it was useful for the development of Barbie dolls, so why bother with this.
Whether it was a delicate or rough doll, Yang Jie couldn't react like Zhang Qiuxi at the beginning, and said, "What kind of situation is this, gift?" Even if I go to develop dolls, is it necessary to give one to each person, how old are you? β
"I've already bought it anyway, it's a pity to throw it away." It's completely useless for development, Zhang Qiuxi doesn't know what to do with these dolls, so he can only give them away one per person, and even then there are still left, if he takes them back and puts them in the room, it is enough to fill any corner that can be placed.
However, Zhang Qiuxi had no such intention at all, and gave Shangguan Jin one for each of them, and the others were all piled aside, and the ones that were forcibly sent out in the end were still piled together, but fortunately, their current magazine office is big enough, and there can be a lot of mess.
These dolls cost thousands of red beans together, and it's a bit of a waste to throw them like this, but everyone has passed the age of playing with dolls, if they are made of ceramic zuΓ², they can be used as decorations, and there is no question of zΓ i age, but the red beans bought are the kind of children who hold and play, and they are indeed not suitable.
Barbie dolls also belong to this category, they are used for fun rather than appreciation, and of course, the reason why they are so popular is definitely to satisfy the senses. Zhang Qiuxi has an impression of Barbie's face. It's really very delicate and beautiful, but it doesn't help her plagiarism much either.
The reason is simple. Barbie is a foreign toy, and its facial features are also Western. Originally, the plane had already seen this strange. But now that the founder has become Zhang Qiuxi, of course, his appearance should be of the Celestial Empire, so he still needs to re-design.
"Qingqing, Shinna, this glorious figure will be handed over to the two of you." Every time they encounter these things, Ye Qingqing and Zicai Xinna are the best candidates, and only they can do it, Zhang Qiuxi also arranged it with peace of mind, and then said: "The only requirement is that the more beautiful and perfect the better, so that the girl can't wait to be like her after seeing it." Let's set an image towards that goal. β
"Sister, your only standard is too high, maybe it's easier to make a few more requests." Zhang Qiuxi's confession, Zicai Xinnai was attracted to it as soon as she heard it, but after thinking about it carefully, there is no way to start such a request, although it is very clear, it is also very vague.
"Actually, I just want to know, what do you think after all this, and how do you operate?" Ye Qingqing didn't want to do it right away like Zicai Xinna, because Zhang Qiu regretted that he didn't say anything other than saying that he wanted to develop a doll. I bought so many dolls to make comparisons, and I don't know if I got any inspiration.
However, Zhang Qiuxi couldn't say why, because he didn't know much, he could only make up for it by himself, and said: "I just want to create a doll brand." It's not about the trademark, it's about the doll itself. That is to say, people can not know that the doll is made and produced by us, but they should all know the existence of this doll. β
"It's not just a toy. I hope it will give little girls a dream that no other company has a similar pursuit. It's just left for us to be pioneers. β
When Zhang Qiuxi speaks slowly, it usually means that she is still thinking while speaking. Yang Jie couldn't help but complain: "You obviously came up with this, right?" Is this reliable or not, it is a simple children's toy in itself, is it really useful to pull so much? β
"It's because everyone thinks like you, so the dolls in the world are the same except for the difference in quality." Zhang Qiuxi put on a tone of lesson, and Hongdou waved his hand and said: "Forget it, since you said you won't let us worry about it, then we really let it go, you can do it yourself." β
In their concept, what they want to do is the most important thing, it doesn't matter if they can succeed or not, no matter who else has a whim, no one else will have an opinion, if they can help, they will help, if they can't, they will support them mentally. It's the same now, Zhang Qiuxi wants to develop dolls, so let's try it, and the rest doesn't matter at all.
Because she doesn't know much about the original toy, she can only make up for it by herself except for the model, Ye Qingqing and Zicai Xinna are also meditating and communicating with each other when she is thinking, Shangguan Jin said: "What we are good at is to create a work and then develop around the work, and this is the first time to directly develop products, have you ever thought about continuing to use this model?" β
"Do you want to make an animation first?" Zhang Qiuxi also thinks that the development of peripherals is much simpler, and it is more conducive to promotion, thinking that many toys have eventually derived a lot of animation works, which also shows that this is indeed necessary, the problem is that Barbie herself does not know much, and I don't know if there are related film and television works.
Shangguan Jin saw that she didn't seem to be able to decide, so she continued: "Even if you don't launch the work first, there should be a detailed setting like an anime character, and it is to pursue perfection so that Qingqing and Shina can operate?" β
"Hehe, we've got the bottom of it." Ye Qingqing and Zicai Xinna both smiled proudly, and then the former said: "But Shangguan is right, it will be clearer if there is a detailed setting definition, it depends on what you think." β
"Setting, it seems that this is really necessary." Zhang Qiuxi scratched his head and thought about it carefully before saying: "The appearance, including the size of the body, is still built in the perfect direction, and it is reduced according to the proportion of real people, and then the age stage cannot be ignored. β
"What's the point here?" Although he decided to let go and let Zhang Qiuxi finish it by himself, Hongdou still asked curiously.
Zhang Qiuxi said: "Of course there is, doesn't it mean that our dolls should be different and give more connotation, so it is better to grow up with their owners." At the beginning, it is set to be three to seven years old, and then elementary and junior high school students can join the career setting at the end. β
Memory Barbie dolls have countless career packages, that is to say, there are countless professional identities, which seems to be one of the most attractive places, but Zhang Qiu is not in a hurry, you can build it slowly.
Zi MMA nodded when she heard this, and said: "It's not difficult to shrink according to the proportion of real people, but if you want to launch a work, it's better to make a character design according to the proportion of real people, right?" If you don't quit the work, you can be vague about the real-life setting, as long as you set the proportions of the doll. β
"Anyway, they all need a reference, but it's pretty much the same, right?" Red Beans couldn't figure out how they would set it up, but when you think about it, it's actually pretty much the same.
"Of course, it's best to have works, but let me think about it first." Zhang Qiuxi scratched his head helplessly and said: "I started thinking about how to make toys, and I didn't think about how to arrange a story at all." β
If you think about it carefully, there are actually a lot of humanoid dolls in the original time and space, such as Teletubbies. Teletubbies also have cartoons (does it count as cartoons?). And Zhang Qiuxi also looked at it curiously, and the result was almost a collapse, any adult who looks at this work with his heart should collapse, because it doesn't say anything, it's just a few characters lining up to do one thing repeatedly.
Adults look at the sunshine of the world differently than children, so they can't find where to see at all, Barbie is not so naΓ―ve, it obviously can't be done like this, even if it can be done Zhang Qiuxi is not willing, she can't accept it herself. Again, there is no reference, so you can only make up for it yourself.
I don't want to be so naΓ―ve, but it's still for children, so it can't be complicated, otherwise children will not be able to accept it or be willing to accept it. And even if it's simple and can't, it can be popular with little girls, it seems to be a fairy tale type, since it is said to be the pursuit of perfection and carrying a dream, then the role of a princess seems to be indispensable.
"Not to mention, it's true that every girl has fantasized about being a princess, and you should be no exception, right?" Shangguan Jin nodded sympathetically, and then asked Zhang Qiuxi, in fact, she felt that this question was redundant, since Zhang Qiuxi was also a woman, it would definitely be like this.
But Zhang Qiuxi once fantasized about sleeping princesses, and really didn't want to be a princess, of course, it didn't matter, so he said: "Since that's the case, it's decided that Barbie will be set as a princess in the cartoon first, this work is mainly to promote toys, and there is no need to create a masterpiece for the time being, so that the animation company will not be too busy." β
With a clear idea, it is much easier to do the next thing, fairy tales are also familiar to everyone, what "Cinderella" and "Snow White" are also familiar with stories as a man Zhang Qiuxi. "Grimm's Fairy Tales" was completed at the beginning of the nineteenth century, and "Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales" is not much late, plagiarism is not possible, but such a story does not need to be plagiarized at all.
Fairy tales are nothing more than witches, curses, princes, and so on. Well, forget the prince's words, Zhang Qiuxi doesn't plan to arrange a boyfriend for Barbie. (To be continued......)
