307. Joint planning

"What's the New Year's Resolution?" Liang Yu asked on the phone, for this kind of thing, "Chess Soul" has happened in the past, and she is not unfamiliar with it.

For example, last year, Fantasy magazine had a situation where all serial teachers drew a four-panel comic, and Chen Nan also specially drew an illustration for Zuo Wei Ah Guang to congratulate the New Year, she thought it was the same this time, but the result was completely different.

Because Huang Yuan asked her on the phone: "Teacher Liang Yu, do you know about cross-platform joint projects?" ”

"Cross-platform joint planning?" Liang Yu couldn't help but be stunned.

Not to mention, she really hadn't heard of this term.

Because Liang Yu was answering the phone, the friends who were passing around stopped to wait for her, and Liang Yu was also a little embarrassed about this, so he greeted them and let them go first, but no one was willing to move his heels, but he was very interested in the words that Liang Yu just said.

"What is a cross-platform joint project?" The curious baby, who is always able to maintain his energy, asks.

Kobayashi, who is familiar with the structure of this line, explains: "Generally, the two-dimensional otaku is divided into four areas of ACGN according to the genre, Anime (animation), Comic (comics), Game (game) and Novel (specifically light novels), and cross-platform linkage occurs in these four fields. ”

"What, isn't that quite a lot, Xiaoyu's "Chess Soul" has been novel and animated, and a game has been launched, isn't this cross-platform." Liao Yuqing said on the side.

Kobayashi shook his head at this: "Although it is true in a broad sense, but the concept is different, the comic change belongs to the extension of copyright, which is the process of investing capital in a popular work, and then expanding to other fields with it as the center, this is the easiest to understand is the periphery, and cross-platform joint planning, simply put, there is a very powerful large company to launch a project (theme), and then allocate how much or how much money, and then go to various fields to pull people over to create what they want, You should be Chiyo's hacking plane-time project, right? ”

"I haven't heard of it." Yuwen Tong and Liao Yuqing said in unison.

Zhao Lin on the side also raised her hand and confessed that she had not been in contact, and it seemed that they did not pay attention to the news of this piece.

Kobayashi sighed at this: "This is quite a well-known project in the industry, it brings together almost the most famous celebrities in various fields to create this project, such as Sadamoto and Anno of the Old Century Evangelion, Manosita who established the animation company BeeTrain, Ito, the screenwriter of "Mobile Police" and "Ghost in the Shell", novelist Akahori and Imperial original artist Imaishi, which tells the story of an unreturned person (Otherworld online game) that takes place in the near-future VR online game "TheWorld". , including Sword Art Online and Record Horizon's progenitor). ”

"Wow, it sounds like it's very powerful, so when they look for Xiaoyu this time, are they also asking her to draw comics?" Zhao Lin didn't show pure joy, but looked a little worried: "But if it's an online game type, it should be what boys are better at and like, and Xiaoyu still has two works in serialization, if you add another one, ......"

Her worries are not groundless, in fact, Liang Yu was already anxious to maintain "Chess Soul" and "Summer Friend's Account" earlier, and now if the burden is increased, anyone knows that it is too reluctant.

It stands to reason that Huang Yuan, who is in charge of Liang Yu's editor, should not be unclear about this, and Liang Yu even said to him that he wanted to give up "Friends' Account......

"Uh, Editor Huang, if I add more comic work, I'm afraid I'm really ......" Liang Yu seemed to have clearly realized where his boundaries were, so he planned to refuse on the phone.

"Wait, Teacher Liang Yu, you listen to me first," Huang Yuan on the phone stopped Liang Yu's hasty decision, and said soothingly: "You misunderstood one thing, of course I know that Teacher Liang Yu is now in charge of two comics, and the workload is already very large, and I am also the editor in charge of "Friends' Account", so naturally I will not be stupid enough to burden you again." ”

"That's ......"

"Actually, as I said earlier, this is a project created by a large company with industry elites after the injection of capital, and we Margaret Lyn also received an invitation to this project, but don't worry, this is not for you to draw another manga, in fact, the work that needs you to do this time is to make a script for animation."

"Script?"

"Teacher Liang Yu was doing doujinshi before, right?" Huang Yuan suddenly mentioned irrelevant matters.

This bit of news can't be hidden, Liang Yu even appeared on TV: "Well, my friends from my school and I formed a fan club, and I participated in Comiket's fandom exhibition. ”

"As far as I know, Mr. Liang Yu, your job in it is to be responsible for creating stories, right, and the painting part is in charge of several other companions of your club, including contacting the bookstore for printing and binding, in fact, I want to entrust you with the work is exactly such a content, because the New Year is coming soon, Mr. Liang Yu, you should be about to have a winter vacation, right, the Fantasy New Year's regular meeting will be closed for a week, and Margalilyn's "Friend's Account" will also be serialized on the 8th of the next month. So Mr. Liang Yu, can you write a suitable story according to the plan during this time? ”

"Even though you say so to me...... But there is such a thing as an animation script,I've never been in contact with it at all.,And I haven't written it at all.,Anyway,Is it really good to leave this kind of thing to me?,I remember when I went to participate in the production of "Chess Soul" before, I heard that animation seems to have a special screenwriter.。 ”

The so-called art industry has a specialization,Although on the one hand, he is responsible for the original comics,But Liang Yu is not arrogant enough to say that he is directly qualified for this job,After all, the original comic and animation editing sound a little similar,But in fact, they are completely different concepts。

"You're right, animation screenwriters are the same as screenwriters of mainstream movies and TV series, and they will reconstruct and rectify the original content they got in accordance with the requirements of supervising the filming of animation, and even delete or add content to it, which is also a mixed opinion in the industry," Huang Yuan continued to popularize relevant knowledge to Liang Yu on the phone: "But don't worry, this time the task is not to adapt, but to be original, just like when you create a comic, give you a background of the story and the framework of the character, Then add bones and flesh to the image, to form a story with ups and downs, infectious people's hearts, but because the plot of the animation is relatively compact, and each director will have certain requirements for the script according to habits, so there will be changes at that time. ”

"......" Liang Yu was silent for a moment, she had already grasped the situation, but she still couldn't help but ask in doubt: "Why did Editor Huang ask me to do this project?" ”

"Of course, this is because I am optimistic about you, and there is no doubt that this will be a sensational project, and if it is successful, it will inevitably increase the popularity of the magazine and the sales of the magazine's comics, which is for public reasons."

"Public reasons?"

Huang Yuan laughed: "Then after talking about the public, let's talk about personal reasons, Mr. Liang Yu, as your responsible editor, I think you should try to broaden your horizons a little bit, and don't be limited by the current pattern." Although I think you are extremely talented, no, maybe a genius at all, but a genius who has not experienced the wind and rain is also a tender sprout, do you know what I mean, life is an adventure that needs to be experienced endlessly. ”

"It sounds a bit lofty, but I don't understand what you're trying to say." Liang Yu heard what Huang Yuan was referring to, so he shot back unceremoniously.

"Oops, I just saw this line in the movie last time and wanted to try it," Huang Yuan smiled with a delicted smile, and then, his voice became serious: "But there is one sentence I don't think I said wrong." ”

"For example?"

"Life needs to be challenged, I think Mr. Liang Yu can give it a try, after all, the opportunity is to be grabbed by himself, and even if he participates, it does not mean that he will be selected in the end, because although this project was issued to Margaret by the production company, it was also voted for by some other similar units, and the final script should be between 6 and 7 candidates."

"It's really ambiguous......"

If Liang Yu knew that this project appeared in her, and it had already brushed off a large number of authors in the entire magazine, I don't know how she would feel. But Huang Yuan didn't mention this, he just encouraged slowly: "But it's also quite interesting, right, the so-called challenges have opportunities, if it's an internal decision, it's too boring." ”

"......" Liang Yu hesitated: "Can I give me some time and let me think about it." ”

"No problem, give you 3 days." Huang Yuan on the phone readily agreed: "You can call me at any time to reply." ”

"By the way, what exactly is the content of this project?" Liang Yu asked.

"Idol."
