Chapter 021. Long waiting
Three days have passed, but there are still only two people in the phantom animation: Xu Rui and Yi Qianqian.
Most of the interviewees in the past few days, as Xu Rui had expected, were not sincere, or they came by to see the excitement, or they didn't come to try their luck at anything, and Xu Rui even suspected that some news media people pretended to come for interviews.
It's not that Xu Rui's requirements are too high, in fact, Xu Rui already has a few candidates in his heart, just waiting for the end of this batch of interviews to contact them.
Due to the previous waves on the Internet, Xu Rui's situation was also concerned by many people, and Ningjiang TV's official Weibo also issued a special article about phantom animation, so people have both expectations and doubts about Xu Rui's new phantom electricity.
What they are looking forward to is whether Phantom Animation, as a veteran animation company, can re-emerge, inherit the spirit of craftsmanship in the past under the leadership of Xu Rui, and produce excellent animation.
What they question is whether Xu Rui, as a newcomer, can be worthy of the sign of phantom animation when he is almost self-made.
Such ambivalence led to many quarrels, and in the midst of asking, a question quietly appeared.
INTERVIEWER What do you think of the producer of "Voice of the Stars" who opened a company but no one applied?
At the bottom of the question, at first there were only some speculations and imaginations that had nothing to do, but soon, with the entry of the big Vs, several high-praise answers appeared on the homepage.
[Erlang]: Thank you...... In the animation industry, this is a normal phenomenon, newcomers always think that their strength is extraordinary, and the old industry needs to be broken by people like themselves, but animation is not a playhouse, let alone a person's business, to be honest, as I said in my previous article, "The Voice of the Stars" is very good as a student work, but it is only a student work, the author wants to base himself on the industry, or too immature, maybe only by experiencing the beating of society, can he grow more......
[Door door door]: [How can no one come when I'm so powerful. JPG] [I'll kill you all when I set up a company. Not surprisingly, some people just think that animation is too simple, don't you think about why there are so many powerful newcomers every year, and only a few can become great directors in the end? [Funny] [Funny] [Funny]
[The Past is Like Smoke]: Erlang has said it very thoroughly, let me add a few more points, it's the end of June, according to the production cycle of general animation, this time should have started to produce the animation in January next year, even if the phantom can be successfully established, we will first see his animation in April next year, and the popularity of "Voice of the Stars" can last for a year? I'm skeptical. It is not possible to rely on temporary popularity and fame in the animation production industry, and in the end, it depends on strength.
After swiping a few answers to this question on his phone, Xu Rui smiled and stretched.
Today's interview ended early, and Yi Qianqian didn't look worried at all, and put the resume in his hand aside.
"It seems that building a company is really not that simple."
Xu Rui said self-deprecatingly, he was not in a hurry, relying on Yi Qianqian and him to produce small animations, he had already received some orders for short film advertisements, waiting for everything to be ready, and they would be able to produce it from next week.
"Today's interview is over, I'm going to contact those people."
He pulled out three resumes and stood up.
Although the start was not too smooth, at least he took the first step in the industry, and Xu Rui was quite satisfied.
At this time, a sound of footsteps came from the stairwell, and Xu Rui raised his head and saw a somewhat familiar person.
“...... Uncle Warehouseman? ”
He quickly remembered that this was the middle-aged man he had met earlier, claiming to be a nearby storekeeper.
"Warehouse manager?"
Yi Qianqian frowned slightly, she looked at the other party, then at Xu Rui, and stopped talking.
"I saw you on TV, lad."
Uncle, Guo Weiren was also stunned when he saw Yi Qianqian, and then smiled and said to Xu Rui.
"I didn't expect you to really reconstruct the electric animation."
"Yes, uncle, what, are you going to apply too?"
Xu Rui asked, but saw Guo Weiren's expression froze, and he was silent for a moment before answering.
"yes, I'm going to apply for the Phantom Animation job too."
Guo Weiren walked slowly in front of Xu Rui and Yi Qianqian, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
"Really?"
Xu Rui originally thought that Guo Weiren was just joking, but when he saw the other party sit down and hand out an A4 paper from his arms, he realized it and took the resume.
“...... Kwok Wai-yan...... Wait, uncle, you, no, you are Guo Weiren's senior? ”
Xu Rui saw the name on the other party's resume, quickly stood up, looked at the slightly hunchbacked middle-aged uncle, and looked at the resume.
In addition to basic personal information such as names, resumes are a long list of participating animations.
The original painting of the thirty-fifth episode of "Chaci the Deer".
The original painting of the ninth and twenty-fourth episodes of "Sky Warrior", painted and directed.
The original art of the first, fifth, ninth, twelfth, twenty-second, and twenty-fifth episodes of "Shadow of Space Man".
The original painting of the twenty-seventh, twenty-eighth, thirty-third, and forty-second episodes of "Stirring Psalms", painted and directed.
The original art of the twenty-first episode of "The Abandoned Prince".
......
There is a long row, most of which are very familiar to Xu Rui, and most of the world's popular animations are produced by Phantom Animation.
Therefore, Xu Rui quickly remembered the information he had seen when he consulted the old fantasy anime before.
Guo Weiren, one of the strongest original artists of the old fantasy electronic animation, is good at dense stunts, dynamic shadows with a strong sense of structure, rich lens effects, and the most iconic is the square-shaped exploding gravel, also known as "Guo's Square", as long as you know a little about the original painting of the animation, you will know Guo Weiren's name.
It's a pity that Guo Weiren lost his passion for creation after the death of Xu Rui's father, and finally ran away when the internal contradictions of Phantom Animation intensified.
"Shallow, I thought I was already very fast, but I didn't expect you to find him first."
Guo Weiren bowed slightly in the face of Xu Rui's question, and then looked at Yi Qianqian, the last apprentice he accepted.
"No wonder I think the heroine's voice in "Voice of the Stars" is a little familiar, it turned out to be you."
Yi Qianqian smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.
"Mr. Guo, I didn't expect you to come."
"Haha, you're still too young, and there are so many things you didn't expect."
Guo Weiren laughed heartily, then turned around and said to the other side of the stairs.
"Come out quickly, shallowness is here."
"Huh?"
Xu Rui looked over Guo Weiren's shoulder, and saw that in the slightly narrow stairwell, several people suddenly poured out, each of whom was no longer young, but everyone's eyes revealed bright colors.
"Who are these people?"
He was confused.
