"Isn't it time? Isn't it time for you to take it out? ”

After listening to Sun Peng's words, Zheng Jia couldn't help but roll his eyes and glared at him angrily.

"Well...... this"

Sun Peng smiled helplessly, and didn't know how to explain it for a while.

How can children be expected to understand martial arts while adults continue to learn about martial arts? Not to mention the children abroad.

So although the story of "Kung Fu Panda" was written, and Sun Peng also wanted to add a fire to next year's martial arts craze, but it was not suitable for this time, Sun Peng was really not sure. The only thing he can be sure of is that both "Despicable Me" and "Finding Nemo" are definitely more suitable than "Kung Fu Panda", because they are the kind of stories that are suitable for all countries and all ages.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry!"

Secretly comforting himself in his heart, Sun Peng smiled and said: "Didn't I think of this idea, I'm afraid that I will forget it when I go back, so write an outline and save it first!" Okay, hurry up and take a look at the other two, and then help me choose the one you like! ”

"Okay, wait for me in a moment."

Biting his lip, Zheng Jia carefully looked at "Despicable Me" and "Finding Nemo" in his hand.

The expression on his face just now quickly became serious.

If for an uninformed person, it's nothing more than choosing one of two stories, it's very simple. But as Sun Peng's girlfriend, Zheng Jiake knows very well what the story he wrote means - the set of "The Lion King" published not long ago has a first print run of 800,000 sets in China, and a total of 1 million copies in Europe and North America!

Although the publishers of both editions chose to postpone the release due to insufficient publicity, everyone knows that sales will definitely not be low.

For each set of picture books, the first printing alone means tens of millions of royalties!

How can you choose a random one in this case?

After reading the rough synopsis of the two stories seriously, Zheng Jia's expression was a little strange, but he still smiled quickly: "Dapeng, I feel that if you show it to children, it will definitely be better for "Finding Nemo". ”

"Oh? So which one do you prefer? ”

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Sun Peng asked with a chuckle.

As soon as he saw Zheng Jia's expression, he knew that his girlfriend must be more curious about the story of "Despicable Me" - but it is not surprising that this girl is not the kind of person who follows the rules in the first place, and how a big bad guy becomes a good person seems to be more attractive to her than the more traditional story "Finding Nemo"?

"This ......"

After hesitating for a moment, Zheng Jia said helplessly: "Okay, I personally seem to prefer the story of "Despicable Me", but ...... The actor is a villain, do you think it's appropriate for the kids to see? ”

"Haha, what's inappropriate?"

Hearing Zheng Jia's question, Sun Peng suddenly laughed: "Don't always feel that bad people must not be cute!" You know, this is a picture book, even if it is adapted in the future, it can only be an animated film, and what they are best at is making the bad guys cute, not to mention that in the end, they will definitely go on the right path......"

……

Two weeks later, when the ratings of "Super Sense Detective" in China broke four, and the box office of "Hurricane Rescue" reached $50 million in the United States, Chen Ruoyi, who had long been looking forward to it, finally waited for Sun Peng's call!

And then......

"After thinking about it for a long time, I decided on the theme of the new picture book this time!"

Handing a thick stack of documents to Chen Ruoyi, who had just sat down, Sun Peng said with a smile: "You read this information patiently first, and there is a detailed version of the story inside, including all the plots and dialogues...... Of course, there are some settings and stuff like that. There's also more space for the characters, scene sketches, and some simple storyboard designs! “

"Uh-huh, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Sun!"

Taking this material with an excited face, Chen Ruoyi was very excited at this time.

She couldn't help but be excited!

As the main creator of "The Lion King", Chen Ruoyi enjoys the royalty share of the picture book, although this proportion is very low compared to Sun Peng's, but don't forget the number of first prints of "The Lion King"! She just got a royalty that she couldn't have imagined before, and her heart is high!

"Uh, you take your time first!"

Regarding Chen Ruoyi's kind words, Sun Peng smiled a little embarrassedly: "Because the time is very limited, my sketches ...... It's a bit rough to draw, but you can roughly see a meaning, so I'll ask you to process it when the time comes! ”

"Don't worry, no problem!"

Nodding very confidently, Chen Ruoyi lowered her head and looked at it seriously.

Seeing that Chen Ruoyi was quickly immersed in the story, Sun Peng quietly got up and walked out of the room, and then found Sun Ya waiting in the next room, and asked in a low voice: "Sister, she signed the contract directly just now?" “

"Nonsense, if you don't sign it directly, is it still possible to bargain with me?" Glancing at her younger brother, Sun Ya said angrily: "Although the picture books are all completed by them in the end, don't forget that the story and setting are all written by you, and the biggest factor affecting sales in the future is also your fame, and this time you are willing to continue to cooperate with them...... Believe it or not, it's more people who cut the conditions in half, and they're no worse than them? “

"Uh...... I believe. “

The corners of his mouth moved, and Sun Peng nodded with a wry smile.

Of course, he knew that what the second sister said was true, in fact, this agent who was bent on maximizing profits really put forward similar opinions, but Sun Peng was used to cooperating with Chen Ruoyi and didn't want to waste time, so he refused.

However, when he thought that Chen Ruoyi had done all the work, but he had taken the lion's share, Sun Peng always had a feeling of embarrassment......

……

"Boom! Boom! “

Without the slightest embarrassment, Chen Ruoyi drank the coffee in the cup in one go!

"Teacher Sun, this script ......"

I don't know if it's because the coffee is bitter or what the reason is, Chen Ruoyi's little face wrinkled, and she said with a wry smile: "The style of this script seems to be different from your previous one!" “

When she said these words, Chen Ruoyi also subconsciously shook her head.

The difference is of course not the style of the storyboard, although these paintings only have the simplest lines, but at a glance she can still understand Sun Peng's meaning. Chen Ruoyi knows that this Teacher Sun has a lot of things, and it is already very good to be able to find time to draw so many designs, and she must not expect too much. And after these cooperations, Chen Ruoyi is becoming more and more confident in herself, she believes that with this simple draft, it will not take long to draw a beautiful design draft!

But this script ......

Is it really possible to use a big bad guy and lead a bunch of weird-looking little bad guys as the main character?

"This time the picture book, let's challenge it!"

Of course, Sun Peng understood what Chen Ruoyi meant, and raised his eyebrows with a smile on his face: "All the previous picture book protagonists were positive and positive, what's the point of going on like this?" Wouldn't it be nice to change your mind this time and challenge the protagonist with personality? ”

"This ...... All right? “

The brows were tightly locked, and Chen Ruoyi still couldn't let go!

It's not that the story is uninteresting, in fact, after reading the entire script, Chen Ruoyi thinks it's very interesting. But she is an adult after all, and she can think about the characters and stories in the script with the way of an adult, but what about the young readers of the future? Will they be able to accept a badass protagonist? Or will their parents be able to accept such a setting?

"Okay?"

Looking at Chen Ruoyi's worried look, Sun Peng suddenly smiled.

If the three parts before and after plus one "Minions" have a total box office of $3.6 billion, surpassing the $2.9 billion of "Shrek" and becoming the most profitable animated film in history, the "Despicable Me" series is not good, can Sun Peng write even better?

"Kung Fu Panda" is not good, and "Finding Nemo" certainly does not work.

Therefore, for Chen Ruoyi's worries and entanglements, Sun Peng could only say indifferently in an unquestionable tone: "Don't worry, if I say no problem, there will be no problem!" I'm going to Japan for the next time, so you can study the script and the sketches, and when I get back, it would be great if I could come up with a plan...... May I? “

”…… OK! “

Shaking her slightly pale lower lip vigorously, Chen Ruoyi only nodded and agreed.
