Chapter 387: Inspiration
"Nobita's History of Universe Exploration" finally exceeded one billion at the domestic box office, which not only broke the box office record held by Hollywood company's animated films, but also surpassed many blockbusters and entered the top three domestic film box office. Accomplishing such a feat with a cartoon is something that should be celebrated, and there is nothing to complain about.
In Japan, the box office also exceeded 3 billion yen, equivalent to almost 160 million soft girl coins, and it also pulled down many animated films in Japan. Although it is still a lot short of the box office record in Japan, at this time, "Machine Qì Cat" is like those half-orc animations in Japan, and you can get a share of your own money every year.
Whether it is given or received, they are very happy, and they are all happy. After the box office dividends came down, Ye Qingqing's pockets bulged again, and Ye Qingqing said: "The theatrical version is more profitable than TV animation, and I suddenly feel that the model of the female girl in the studio is not bad, and I directly treat the movie as a serial, one every year, and if I watch one and fall into the pit, I have to go to the cinema every year to watch it." ”
"Please, have you forgotten how the maidens hit the streets?" Zhang Qiuxi rolled her eyes and said: "The movie is divided into two episodes, and fans hate it so much, how can it really be done as a TV series, and besides, we are a theatrical version, and it is not an original animated movie." ”
There are quite a few movie episodes in the series, and there are not a few novels that have been adapted into several films, and "The Hunger Games" is one of them. But in either case, every movie should have a complete story. You can have a connection with each other, but you can't make a prediction of what will happen and see how it will be broken down next time.
There are a lot of movies that are released in two episodes now, but if it weren't for the fan base. If you have faith in the movie itself, no one will dare to do that. Doing it recklessly will only outweigh the losses, and the superiors will give all kinds of tricks, who is willing to watch the next episode, and pay for the cost of the last movie in vain.
Ye Qingqing laughed twice and said, "Of course I know, if it weren't for the popularity of TV animation, the box office of the theatrical version would not be so high." In fact, after watching the movie, I feel that the long-form story can be more developed. I can't help but want to try it too. ”
"It's okay to draw a long story, I support you." Ye Qingqing wanted to try it in a reasonable way. And it's also a good thing, Zhang Qiuxi said: "In the future, we will do a theatrical version, and we can adapt it from a long story, which is more convenient." ”
The original work has a lot of long stories. And it was indeed adapted into a theatrical version. Originally, Zhang Qiuxi had gradually given up meddling in the direction of "Machine Qì Cat" and let Ye Qingqing let it go, but now her idea fits the original time and space situation is not bad, at least it can prove that it is feasible.
"I think long stories are good, but what about short stories? I don't have to give up, it's not good. Hongdou supported Ye Qingqing to draw a long story, but felt that she shouldn't give up the short story, so Ye Qingqing said: "Don't worry, I understand." The short story certainly doesn't give up. It's just that when you draw a long story at the same time, it will be less serialized. ”
In the story of "Machine Qì Cat", the short story is the most important part, and Ye Qingqing is of course very clear. Her current serialization rate is two or three words a month. At the same time, it is enough to draw a long story and reduce the short story to one or two sentences, which is not a problem at all.
"What does it mean that there is no problem at all, the length of the short story has been reduced, isn't it easier to catch up with the progress of TV animation, haven't you all thought about this problem?" Yang Jie reminded that she is also a member of the animation team. Even if I'm not interested in it, I know a lot about it.
Li Yue said: "There are long words. It's actually no problem to catch up with the progress, right? I don't think that's the problem, it's that we should do something more in line with the adult market, similar to the slam dunk before. ”
"Machine Qì Cat" has gained a firm foothold and captured the hearts of all children, and domestic animation almost starts with children, and it is relatively easy to succeed. Now they can be said to be perfect in this aspect, and if they want to continue to forge ahead, they have to be in the adult market.
They themselves have accumulated to this point, and they have enough strength, and many domestic animation companies are also looking forward to them opening up the adult market. They have brought a better environment and market that is much easier for other companies to do.
Shangguan Jin held a book in his hand, and said leisurely: "Slam Dunk itself belongs to youth comics, and it is not enough to say that the adult market is not enough, if you can, martial arts and other themes are almost the same." ”
Now the future of martial arts novels is worrying, and many writers have begun a vigorous reform movement, but works adapted from traditional martial arts are still very popular, not to mention that Hua Yongsheng's works are still popular with audiences after remaking n versions, and the box office income of well-made martial arts movies is not low.
This also shows that the martial arts complex is indeed deeply rooted in the bone marrow of the Chinese people, and it seems feasible to make martial arts anime. Martial arts has a very wide audience, and it is also a part of traditional culture, and there are many things that can be drawn.
"As the saying goes, if you are not in your position, you can't seek politics, and now that we have the ability and influence, it seems that we should really think about how to spread and promote our culture, and this sense of responsibility should still be there." Zhang Qiuxi was very cautious once, Spider-Man said that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and she feels similar now, the difference is that her responsibility is not to save the world.
"If you have a martial arts theme, it's more appropriate to do it in ink style, right? It just so happens that Sun Fuqing and the others have inherited all the skills of Shangmei Film, so that they will be useful, so that they will not be abandoned or even lost, and if you want to talk about traditional culture, is there a better way to show it? Ye Qingqing had a flash of inspiration and thought of this.
Ink animation is unique to the Celestial Empire, and it is also the only technology that is still standing on top of the world in the field of animation, in fact, this is also because other countries can't do it and don't want to do it, otherwise it would have been caught up after so many years of stagnation.
"The idea is good, but the problem is that the studio is not busy at all." The red bean stall reminded again: "The machine qì cat TV animation has been newly opened, and the light sound girl theater version has not yet been completed, at least after this." ”
"It's okay to plan ahead. Shangguan, you put forward this opinion, what are your good ideas? Zhang Qiuxi looked over and saw Shangguan Jin chatting with them while still reading a book very fascinated, this dual-purpose skill is really good.
"What are you looking at?" Zhang Qiuxi lurked in the past, and snatched the book with an empty hand, and on the cover was Robinson Crusoe, a novel written in 1719 and a household name.
Zhang Qiuxi was not interested when he saw the cover, and said: "A person has lived on the island for n years, everyone knows this story, can you still watch it so fascinating?" ”
Shangguan Jin took the book and closed it, and said, "Although this is one of the stories, it is only a part of it. If you don't look at it, how do you know that Robinson was shipwrecked and stranded on an isolated island is actually his fourth time at sea, and the previous three times he almost died. ”
"How many years has Robinson lived on the island?" Ye Qingqing suddenly asked, and Shangguan Jin also said: "He has been away from home for thirty-five years, and he has lived on the island for twenty-eight years, what's the problem?" ”
Ye Qingqing picked up the paintbrush and said, "There is no problem, it's just that since everyone knows this story, why don't you use it, and the story of another phone qì cat is done." ”
Shangguan Jin was stunned for a moment before asking, "Inspiration?" Don't tell me, you're going to draw a long story like Nobita's Desert Island Crusoe. ”
Ye Qingqing said: "The long story needs a more rigorous plot, you have to think about it carefully, what I am thinking about now is a short film." Nobita failed the exam and went home, was criticized by the teacher at school, was scolded by his parents when he went home, and was ridiculed by Fat Tiger and others. So he felt that everyone had ill intentions towards him, and wanted to live alone on the island like Robinson, so that he would be free. ”
"Then it's time for Tinker Bell to appear, right?" Li Yue continued, in fact, everyone is very familiar with the routine of the story of "Machine Qì Cat".
Ye Qingqing continued: "Where on the earth is there a small island that no one knows about now, Tinker Bell was so noisy that he couldn't help it, so he took out props to help Nobita reach his idea." As a result, on the desert island, Nobita had to be helped by Tinker Bell everywhere, and he was very happy at first, thinking that Robinson had lived on the island for twenty-eight years, and he was immediately frightened and ran back. ”
"It's a very clever cat story, but it doesn't really have anything to do with Robinson Crusoe, right?" Shangguan Jin's expectations were disappointed, but when he thought about it, he felt that this was "Machine Qì Cat".
"Well, if you want to talk about shipwrecked drifting, I suddenly have a story in mind." Zhang Qiuxi's words made Shangguan Jin look forward to it again, it seems that she was fascinated by watching "Robinson Crusoe", so she is very interested in stories related or the same genre, and many people are like this.
Looking at Shangguan Jin's earnest gaze, Zhang Qiuxi could only say: "This story may be a little complicated, or wait until I think about it again, it just so happens that I haven't started writing for a long time, and it's time to open a new book." ”
"Then you don't have to think about it, your new book must have nothing to do with Robinson Crusoe." Shangguan Jin retracted his expectant gaze, and with this kind of thought, it was destined to fail.
Zhang Qiuxi said: "Of course, if it has anything to do with Robinson, it won't become plagiarism." I'm a new generation of mountain monsters, how can I pick up people's teeth. ”
"Shangguan can actually inspire two inspirations by reading a novel, and I really can't keep up with your thinking." Yang Jie expressed her admiration. (To be continued)
