"Dragon Fighter" comic book fire!

As the head of Wanbao and an animation producer with a keen sense of smell, Gu Miao naturally will not ignore this work that has initially gathered popularity.

Animation adaptation is imperative!

Real men have to do what they say, since they promised to submit a qualified animation adaptation plan in mid-April, how can they disappoint Nantong Sensei?

Isn't it just a manga plan!

For Gu Miao, who is "experienced in a hundred battles", the mere manga planning case is simply a trivial matter.

So......

Under his summoning, the four maggots of Wanbao ...... Ahh It was the four heroes who came together and held a workshop on the production of the anime "Dragon Fighter".

"What is there to talk about?"

Ma Kui picked the stubble on his chin and said with a puzzled face: "It's over according to the comics, do you need to make any special changes?" ”

"You can't say that."

"A manga is a manga, and an anime is an anime. Different content carriers have very different expressions. ”

Huang Kun shook his head and explained: "Blindly copying comics is likely to be self-defeating, and in the end, both ends will be unpleased. ”

And that makes sense.

One of the most important things to do in adaptation is to know what can be kept and what must be modified.

Blindly catering to the original work, or making drastic changes, is not good.

Gu Miao agreed with Huang Kun's statement.

But there was one thing that Huang Kun didn't expect. That is the "Dragon Fighter" comic, in order to adapt to the later animation adaptation, in fact, a lot of modifications have been made.

Other words......

Adapting the comic version of "Dragon Fighter" into an anime, indeed, as Ma Kui said, only needs to be changed according to the comics.

Because at the beginning of the birth of the comics, he and Nan Tong were already ready to "adapt the animation".

So!

The focus of this production "workshop" is not how to change, but who will change it, how much money is Wanbao going to spend, and how much manpower will be invested to change it?

"Mr. Gu, you know."

Ma Kui took the lead in shaking his head and said, "The "Kuiba" project still needs me to continue to follow up, I really can't spare time." ”

"Mr. Gu, you know."

"Although the first season of "Pig Man" has been produced and broadcast, the follow-up work still needs a little ......"

Before Huang Kun's words were finished, Gu Miao couldn't help but interrupt: "Stop, stop!" I know you don't have time, so I'm here to be the director, and I'm satisfied, right? ”

“OK！ OK！ ”

There is no controversy about the choice of director. In other words, from the beginning, Gu Miao didn't plan to let Huang Kun or Ma Kui direct this animation.

After all, it's the first work in the series, so be steady!

If it's a sequel, or a work like a biography, it can let these two take over. But for the first work in the series, it is safer for him to go out in person.

The director has been decided!

The rest of the animation production team, then there is not much to say. Wanbao Animation has hundreds of animation talents, and there is no pressure to temporarily transfer hundreds of people.

In terms of production budget, Gu Miao's preliminary estimate is about 800-12 million yuan.

This is an "estimated" value.

The actual cost may be higher than that. But there is a high probability that it will still be within his estimate, and it will not exceed the budget too much.

There are two main reasons for this.

The first point is that Wanbao is now very well staffed, and its dependence on the "animation outsourcing" business is not so high, which saves a lot of expenses.

The second point is that Gu Miao's construction period for the animation of "Dragon Fighter" has reached five and a half months, close to 170 days. And his estimate of the length of the first season of animation is only about 40-45 episodes.

There is plenty of time and manpower.

Combining the above two points, the production cost he estimated was actually very "saving", only about two-thirds of "Sailor Moon" in the Neon Division.

Manpower OK, budget OK!

After confirming that there was no obstacle to the project, Wanbao Animation's official Weibo directly released the promotional pictures and copywriting of the "Dragon Fighter Animation Production Decision".

The promotional image is abstract!

Probably the official micro operation and the art lady, in order to shoot the boss's ass, deliberately put Gu Miao's bust in the most conspicuous center of the promotional picture.

Is there a problem with this?

It's normal for the employee to take care of the director-boss and put him in position C in the promotional image.

But......

"Why is there a Xiaodu holding a dragon sword below me? Excuse me？ Gu Miao had a question mark on her face.

He looks stupid!

The artist of this picture, didn't you find that the "tip of the sword" of the Denglong Sword was too close to a certain position of Mr. Gu?

"That'...... I'm going to delete it! ”

Ma Kui also felt that it was inappropriate, although P was quite good, but this did damage Mr. Gu's wise image, so it was better to delete it.

But he was still a step too late.

Shortly after the promotional image was issued, it was screenshotted and saved.

Even if the official Weibo deleted the original picture and re-posted a revised promotional picture, it still couldn't stop the crazy spread of the original picture on the Internet.

What's even more outrageous is ......

On the basis of the original picture, some people have carried out a second "creation", and Xiaodu's dragon sword has also been replaced with all kinds of strange things.

There's a laser gun!

There's a feather duster!

And what kind of adult products......

In addition to this, they also accompanied the picture with various text dialogues.

For example, poke the turtle grandson upstairs to death! Justice is executed! Hand the fairy stick to the big guy! Is it comfortable? ……

Originally, in addition to his peers and a small number of fans who paid attention to animation works, Gu Miao, who was not known by many people, instantly became one of the emoji giants with the spread of these pictures.

Even the fans have risen a lot!

Is this a good thing?

For Gu Miao, who has a good face, this is definitely not a good thing. Even if he is thick-skinned enough, he will still feel faceless when he sees this overwhelming picture.

"Thinking about the good......

Du Hao, who deliberately went back to Jiangchuan to relax, and met his old friend by the way, also saw the recent commotion pictures circulating on the Internet, and comforted him with a smile.

"What are promotional images for?"

"As long as it has a publicity effect, let everyone know that you are going to shoot a new animation, this animation is called Shenlong Fighter, and the protagonist is the Xiaodu who raised his sword and stabbed you, isn't that okay?"

Gu Miao: "......"

It makes sense, but he was speechless.

In a sense, this promotional map not only successfully completed the "publicity" task, but also achieved surprisingly good results.

After all, now not only anime fans, but even many people who don't usually watch anime, who don't know Gu Miao or Wanbao, all remember "Xiaodu" and his "Denglong Sword".

What is this?

The young lady of the artist accidentally stumbled into it, and actually used the P-map technology of five yuan to achieve the "publicity" effect worth tens of millions?

Do you still need to praise it?
