Section 106 Old man Tomino
Li Jingyuan looked to the side along the source of the voice, and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties standing about five meters away from him, with a bright head on his head, staring at Li Jingyuan with a pair of Sven eyes, and there was an unkind look in his eyes.
"You are?" Li Jingyuan was in a very good mood, but the appearance of this person was a little bad, so the tone of the question was not very good. Originally, he also paid a lot of attention to social etiquette in Japan, but Li Jingyuan is not Japanese, and he personally has no good impression of Japanese men, so he doesn't care about this.
"This is Master Tomino, Master Yuki Tomino, who is known as the father of Gundam." The store manager who was standing on the side saw that the current situation didn't seem to be right, so he hurriedly stood up and made a round, on one side was the owner who spent a lot of money, and on the other hand was the source of his own restaurant's food, so if the two sides made a fuss, no matter who won, it would not be good for him.
"Yuki Tomino? I think I've heard the name somewhere, but I don't remember much. You say he's the father of Gundam? "Actually, Lee Kyung-won still knows such a person, and the reason is because he likes the Gundam series of anime. In the Gundam series of anime, whether it is the mechanical setting or the plot arrangement, it can be regarded as a first-class level, especially the anti-war propaganda that is always revealed in this animation, which is very appetizing to him, so he also had a lot of leisure to look at the main creator list of this work in his previous life, and he can be regarded as knowing the names of some of the people in it.
Yuki Tomino, it's not an exaggeration to say that he is the father of Gundam. Although he did not create the original "Mobile Suit Gundam", he began to play the leading role in the sequel to "Mobile Suit Z Gundam" in 1985, and then successively produced "ZZ Gundam", "Char's Counterattack", "Gundam F91", "V Gundam", "Turn-A Gundam" and other classic Gundam anime. The value of the entire Gundam anime series has risen to an incredible level.
The reverberation of Gundam is incalculable. In addition to influencing many later generations and changing the form of the industry, the sensation at the time was seen as a social phenomenon that surpassed "Space Battleship Yamato": events such as the New Century Animation Manifesto, which was mainly composed of young enthusiasts, and the hot sales and establishment of many new media such as animation magazine OUT and subsequent NEWTYPE; The voices of anime fans, who have been hiding beneath the surface of the water, can be said to have exploded in one breath through "Gundam". Tomino himself later said: "At that time, I was like almost becoming a godfather"; There are still many records of the time, which shows the level of attention and enthusiasm at that time.
After receiving so much popularity, Old Man Tomino also paid a lot of price, and after the continuous work of the Gundam series, Tomino gradually felt mentally uncomfortable, and then finally broke out in "V Gundam". As BANDAI and SUNRISE continue to demand a sequel to "Gundam", they even start a new series that is not directed by Tomino; The entire Gundam series has fallen out of his hands and has become a huge industry, which led Tomino to have the idea of destroying the Gundam series. Even in this situation, the old man's body was a little unbearable, so in the years after completing "V Gundam", Tomino's condition can be said to be very bad; According to my own account, Tomino was often dizzy at that time, and he didn't even dare to go out of his house, and after his condition improved slightly, he only dared to walk on dirt.
He has been over-popularized and tortured, but the old man's character is still very stinky, and he has no intention of changing at all, and he is quite serious about everything, and on many occasions, he does not perfunctory and severely criticize the contributions of juvenile and child readers; In recent years, in the column of ANIMAGE, I have also responded with the best sincerity to readers who are three or four years younger. In addition, social responsibility and personal cultivation are also vigorously promoted; In the case of Aum Shinrikyo sarin, Tomino was the only person in the Japanese animation industry to speak out about the responsibility of the animation industry.
is such a stinky and hard old man, interrupting Li Jingyuan's interest when he was happy today, so Li Jingyuan can't say anything, who told him to meet such a person.
But at this time, Li Jingyuan became interested, but it was not so casual to let go, he also wanted to see what the old man in front of him was worried about, if he could solve the problem that the old man couldn't solve, then it would be a face-saving thing to say Lu in the future. ,
"Old man, what do you say you can't sell because of what? Looking for inspiration? "The title used by Li Jingyuan is not so inappropriate, because he uses a title commonly used by the Japanese, which is somewhat similar to the use between more familiar people, with this title, Li Jingyuan also sees that the old man Tomino is the father of Gundam, and the two of them are also like-minded people who like this work the same way.
"yes, it can't be sold, so you don't have to rub around anymore, and the model is not allowed to move anywhere until I find the inspiration." The stubborn tone of the old man Funo was very unpleasant, but Li Jingyuan didn't care, he knew that this old man was such a temper.
"Let's talk about what kind of work you need to do, you need inspiration, and as a die-hard Gundam fan, maybe I have some good advice." Li Jingyuan's demeanor was very calm, so for a while, the old man Funo didn't treat him as one of those young people who talked nonsense if they didn't understand anything.
After seeing that Li Jingyuan didn't seem to be a fake, and hearing that he was a hardcore Gundam fan, the old man's attitude was a little better, maybe he was also thinking a little bit of a headache, and he just changed his mind, so he didn't refuse Li Jingyuan's proposal, and took the lead directly to a corner of the store.
There is a small corner here that has been made into a lounge similar to the one in the anime, and now Lee Kyung-won is sitting here with the old man Tomino and the store manager, and a few cups of freshly brewed coffee are placed in front of him, and they start chatting.
Before he started talking, Li Jingyuan had already started to think about it, and arranged a timetable for each Gundam work in his mind, and Li Jingyuan probably knew what the old man was worried about.
In 02~03, Gundam changed the style of the past and produced a series of anime called "Gundam SEED", which caused a great response among fans, and in this work, the role of several protagonists was more prominent than before, and the various machines that appeared in the whole work were also more gorgeous, and they were enthusiastically sought after by younger audiences and female audiences because of their charismatic characters, star-studded voice actors, and highly commercial publicity. Unlike the previous depictions of the psychology of war, this drama uses a lot of plot to describe the emotional entanglements between several protagonists, thus attracting a group of fans who have never seen Gundam, and triggering drastic changes in the Gundam series.
After this work, Tomino was faced with a very difficult choice, whether to return to the old way and highlight the connotation of the Gundam works again, or continue this gorgeous style, which in his opinion was a very nerve-wracking matter. Although this problem has been basically settled under the strong request of Bandai Company, but at this time, he can't relax, as a main creative management, he also has to carry out a basic structure for the new work, which includes the plot, character setting and mechanical setting several very important aspects.
Thinking of this, Li Jingyuan didn't wait for the old man Tomino to speak, and asked directly: "It's a question about the new work, right?" It seems that the SEED series has made a lot of money for Bandai, and they can't help it a little anymore, and they want to continue to make more money? ”
As soon as it comes to this matter, the old man is a fire, he doesn't care at all that there is a store manager of Bandai sitting next to him, and he pours out with a sigh of complaint: "Who says it's not, these guys, just know how to make money, they don't want to think about it, how can this work be so easy to make, not to mention that I don't like the style of SEED, even if I like that style, it takes time to make it, I just know that Lu Dao blindly urges, can't make high-quality works, how can anyone like it, The peripheral products can't be sold either, who knows what those people are thinking. ”
"Hehe, Mr. Tomino makes sense, but our company has no choice, and now the business is getting more and more difficult to do, if you don't make the shape gorgeous, the sales performance will not go up, so please work hard." The store manager sitting on the side heard the complaint and had no choice, he could only smile to appease the old man, who made this stinky and hard old man a high-quality guarantee.
"There's nothing wrong with you guys." Li Jingyuan also said at this time, and he analyzed the two people: "As a businessman, there is nothing wrong with Bandai's approach, as a director, there is nothing wrong with the old man wanting to make classic works that he is satisfied with, now it is just to find a suitable balance." ”
In his previous life, Li Jingyuan had already watched the latest "Gundam 00" series, so he didn't mess up at all: "Since this is the case, let's make a work out, it must have connotation, plus a gorgeous setting." ”
"Cut, it's easy to tell you, is it so easy to make such a work, if it's that simple, what else do I have to worry about." The old man Tomino looked disdainful, thinking that this is not nonsense.
"Really? I've got a good proposal here.,It's kind of what I figured out when I was watching the anime before.,Why don't I tell you something first? Li Jingyuan began to tell the story unhurriedly, and briefly said some of the main points of "Gundam 00".
