Chapter 063. New projects
Xu Rui's Chinese New Year's Eve was spent with Yi Asa Shallow.
He also asked Yi Qianqian if he wanted to go home to reunite with his family, but the petite girl only shook her head faintly.
For the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Rui showed his cooking skills and made a table of sumptuous dishes, and after the two of them finished eating, they found that the amount of these dishes seemed to be enough for them to eat for three days.
Xu Rui has long lost his close family, and after his father died, he came alone, so he naturally didn't have to go to his relatives during the Spring Festival.
He has spent his time patching up many classics of this world, including but not limited to anime and movies, TV series, comics, novels, etc.
Xu Rui's purpose in doing this is to better understand the level of commercial film and television in this world in order to conceive the next work.
After all, according to Shakespeare, all the stories of human civilization have been written in his time, and future generations are just repeating routines, and Xu Rui also needs to see if his thoughts are repeated with which predecessors in another world.
The seven-day vacation was over quickly, and he was glad that the few ideas he had in the making had not come up with anything like it, so his planning was moving quickly.
During the Spring Festival, he also saw Li Ruoxuan's travel photos, she and her family went to the beach in the South Island and enjoyed the warm sunshine on a cold winter day.
Su Liyu only sent a message of blessings on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, according to her, the signal in her hometown is not very good, and the mobile phone network is often disconnected.
Ningjiang is a big city, there is a lot of foreign population, especially Ningjiang High-tech Development Zone, during the Spring Festival, there are not even a few takeaways on the street, deserted, but once the holiday is over, the whole city becomes active again.
On February 17th, the sixth episode of "Soul Eater: Zero" was launched.
On the production team's side, all the work on the last episode has been completed, and only BD painting correction work needs to be carried out in the next three weeks, and the production part of "Soul Eater: Zero" has basically ended.
In the conference room, Xu Rui and Cheng Kewei sat opposite each other, and next to them were two executive producers, Xu Yang and Gao Senmiao.
They are discussing the next work of Phantom Anime.
Although Xu Rui wants to make an original animation as soon as possible, due to the next expansion, Cheng Ke still suggested that Xu Rui lead the team to produce a small-scale animation run-in first, so these people are looking at the plan that Cheng Ke has recruited.
"At the moment, I have the following jobs."
Cheng Ke said, distributing a few copies of the plan to others.
"The first is an animation plan for a mobile game.,The girl is a mobile mahjong game.,The difference with ordinary mahjong games is that the characters in the game are all beautiful women.,These beauties can also be drawn for money.,Their company hopes that we can create an original plot.,Just let those beauties move.。
Xu Rui looked at the image of the girl attached to the planning book, originally he thought it would be that kind of cute girl, but it turned out that it was all big breasted and long-legged royal sisters, almost holding a leather whip and candle, and the planning book emphasized the need to perfectly restore the character design, he immediately dispelled the intention of making a superpower mahjong animation.
"Wow, this boobs, can they really be that big?"
Gao Senmiao subconsciously glanced at herself, confused.
"The owner of this house is probably a fan of these kinds of things."
Cheng Ke smiled and introduced the second plan.
"The second is the demand of the model company, they recently released a model series, but because it is more complicated, it is not very sellable, and they hope that we will make an original animation of the nature of a commercial film, and if necessary, they will provide technical support for the model."
Listening to Cheng Ke's introduction, before Xu Rui opened the second plan, things such as "My father never beat me" suddenly appeared in his mind, "Who understands this?" "I am Gundam" and other classic lines, after reading it for a while, this planning book gives a high degree of freedom and is suitable for original play, but the moment he saw the model, Xu Rui twitched the corners of his mouth.
Originally, he thought it was a robot model, but he didn't expect it to be a monster model.
These assembled monsters play to the limit of human imagination, assembling together the various parts of almost all familiar creatures, you can see the tentacles of an octopus, the head of a horse, ten thousand eyes and the claws of a crab, and the tail of a snake on a monster, just looking at this model, Xu Rui has the illusion of looking directly into the abyss, and immediately turned over.
"I'm afraid this model can't be sold because it's complicated......"
Xu Yang muttered to himself, causing everyone to nod in agreement.
"Well, they have a lot of budget, but I also think that making this anime might have a bit of an impact on the image of Phantom Den."
Cheng Ke spread his hands helplessly.
They then read three more plans, including a project adapted from a manga by a street girl, an advertising animation for a chain of ramen shops, and an animated plan for a side-scrolling online game.
Each of these plans has its own advantages and disadvantages, and it is not perfect.
"One more at the end."
Cheng Kewei hesitated for a moment after putting away the plan for the side-scrolling online game with a tight budget, and then spoke.
"This is a project of an official organization, and to be honest, this kind of project is generally a type with sufficient funds and very little demand, and it is difficult to receive it according to our strength."
"That's what you fought for, Brother Cheng?"
Gao Senmiao's eyes were shining, and he looked at Cheng Ke.
"Sort of picked it up."
Cheng Ke sighed, and then distributed the thin plan to everyone.
"Because of the subject matter, this theme, ordinary animation companies are not willing to touch it at all."
"What subject?"
When Xu Yang saw the content of the plan, he immediately opened his mouth wide and his face darkened.
"This, it doesn't seem to be very lucky."
"What, what, what?"
Gao Senmiao saw that Xu Yang's reaction was fierce, and her curiosity became even stronger, so she quickly turned the inside page without reading the title.
“!!!”
Stunned, Gao Senmiao spoke.
"Like...... It's a lot of fun! ”
Seeing the completely different appearances of the two, Xu Rui was also a little curious, Cheng Kewei had mentioned that he had gotten an official cooperation project here, but he had never had a chance to ask about the specific content.
Now, it seems, that's it.
Xu Rui was the last to get the plan, and he quickly understood why several people had different reactions.
Because this proposal is a promotional film commissioned by a medical institution, it does not require a full 12-episode animation to be produced, only a 40 to 60-minute novella animation to be broadcast on television.
This means that this is a small project for the animation company, which cannot meet the long-term production cycle, and although the budget is full, it needs to be completed by manpower.
The planning project that starts in February is usually an animation in July, and if you take over this project, the company's plan will be delayed and may be delayed until October.
The issue of the production cycle is still a trivial matter, and what is more troublesome is that this medical institution is not a hospital or a pharmaceutical company.
It's a forensic research center.
In other words, the short film needs to tell the story of the forensic doctor.
