No one could have imagined that "Monster Hunter" would become the champion of the number of online players in the Spring Festival game with just one demo version, as if no one could have guessed that "A Bite of China" would be so popular between the broadcasts.

This documentary filmed by national television, with its own solid content, relied on the prime-time broadcast effect, and word of mouth, even surpassed the weather forecast and became the most watched program during the Spring Festival.

On the Hatsune Video Network, until the seventh episode "Our Field" was broadcast, the total number of views of "A Bite of China" exceeded 100 million, and the first episode exceeded 20 million, and this number is still growing.

The overseas version of Hatsune Video Network has also been played tens of millions of times, and in places where the website has influence, many people have developed a great interest in Chinese food, and the restaurants in Chinatown are full.

Like Tom. Food anchors like Granger also uploaded videos of tofu making and garnered millions of views.

At the end of the Spring Festival holiday, Phantom Animation's work "White Box" also entered the second half of the story.

The first twelve episodes,The fantasy animation in the animation finished the original animation "Magical Girl Xiaofang",Success,After that,The company received an adaptation task,The adapted comic work is "The Fourth Flying Girl Team" involving airplanes,But the editor in charge of this work is not willing to let the production team see the original author,Under the contradictions,The protagonist Xiaokui followed the manager of the animation company to the office building of the old magic animation。

It is a two-storey, even older building that has been turned into a warehouse.

Xiao Kui looked at all this curiously, the bulging file bag, the old projector, the mottled walls and the tattered table, and the wall clock that had long stopped.

She saw a transparent piece of paper, the paint on which had faded, and only a faint outline could be seen.

"What is this?"

Aoi picked up the paper and asked.

"This is the original painting of "Andean Chaci", I really miss it."

The manager replied, and Ling Xiaokui looked at it several times before finally seeing the image of the character from the color and outline.

"Really."

"Sometimes the lines of the charcoal will disappear after a long time, but the paint and background can be stored for a long time, the cut bag is very heavy, and it takes a lot of time to wait for the paint to dry, and if you are not careful, you will damage the material, and there will be halos when you take pictures, and celluloid can be troublesome to use, compared to that time, the technology has improved a lot."

The manager, who was already an amiable old man, explained with emotion.

But listening to the manager's explanation, Xiao Kui was not happy, and the "Fourth Flying Girl Team" of Phantom Animation was creating with great difficulty because of various contradictions, which made Xiao Kui feel that the future was bleak.

"Is that really progress? Are you really still making fun animations now? My mind right now is not about how to make something interesting, but about how to solve the problem at hand, and I don't have the idea of making a good work. ”

She muttered to herself.

"I think the era when you could work slowly and meticulously to make a masterpiece is much better than it is now."

"When I was making "Chachi", I was so slow and meticulous, and I was also facing all kinds of troubles at that time, and the time was also very tight, haha, I should say that I was looking for trouble, but I was really happy at that time."

Listening to the manager's words, Xiao Kui fell into thought, but suddenly heard an angry roar.

"Hey, what are you doing with executive production!"

Aoi turned her head, only to find that the voice was not calling herself.

"Hey, executive production, how is the test screening time for the first issue tomorrow?"

"I'm confirming."

Xiaokui saw that the manager, who was decades younger, was talking on the phone with a microphone.

"Tomorrow's first test screening starts at 17 o'clock."

On the wall, the stagnant wall clock began to turn again.

Xiao Aoi looked at all this in a daze.

Wearing gloves and slowly applying paint with a pen to coloring the storyboard, I use an old-fashioned projector to check the film and the picture little by little.

The young manager came out with a casserole and asked everyone to have a supper first, and it was already late at night.

A few people were noisy, chatting about work and eating at the same time.

At this time, the manager took out a background picture and showed it to the director.

"What is this? Art background? ”

"What a bold color."

"I've never seen a blizzard use this color."

"Who drew this kind of picture without permission, it's completely different from the blizzard in episode 38."

The art director shouted.

The manager called out the person who drew this background picture, which was exactly the same master of professional background production that Aoi had painstakingly found when working on "The Fourth Flying Girl", and at this time, he was still a young man who had just started in the industry.

He said that he had wandered and seen a desperate blizzard, and based on this impression he drew a background map.

After some arguing, everyone finally agreed to the idea of changing the art background, and although it would take more labor and more time, everyone worked together to complete the work in order to make the quality of the work better.

Here the animation abruptly cuts to a clip from "Andean Chaci", in which the characters of "Andean Chaci" struggle in the middle of a snowstorm, hiding in a cave to keep warm, and talking about their worries about the future.

As he spoke, the characters became the expectations of the various production staff for the future.

Eventually, the snow subsided, and the animals saw the light again.

At this time, as soon as the camera turned, Xiaokui was already in tears, she had just finished watching "Andean Chaci" played on an old-fashioned projector.

Seeing this scene, Menmenmen was also quite emotional.

He is a generation that grew up watching animation.,Now,There are more and more animations every year.,But it's bringing less and less touch.。

Because of this, he began to be critical, began to ridicule the industry, and began to find fault with every work, as if in this way, the producers could find that the animation they made was no longer interesting, and it seemed that in this way, the animation industry could return to that golden age.

Thinking about it carefully, Menmenmen suddenly found that it seems that almost all of the animations that have made me feel good in the past few years are made by Phantom Electric Animation, of course, including this "White Box".

"At least in terms of animation production, I can still trust Xu Rui."

Menmenmen smiled bitterly, and at this time, the episode of animation came to an end.

Surprisingly, the original ending song did not sound, but the song of the work-in-work "Andean Chaci" appeared.

Accompanied by contemporary songs, Citch and his companions run down the hill into the forest, towards the place where the sun rises.

Men Men Men looked at this scene, and the corners of their eyes were a little moist.
