Life is like chess, chess is like life.

The title of chess saint is the common pursuit of all chess players, and thousands of troops have crossed the single-plank bridge, which is comparable to the new champion of the imperial examination, and the difficulty can be imagined.

Because of this, Jiang Liuer will inevitably encounter ups and downs on the road to becoming a chess saint, which is not something that can be changed by nature.

"Go boy, after going through hardships, tasting all the hardships of the world, and staying up all night......"

As described in the lyrics of the theme song "Go Boy", the road to success is not all smooth sailing, and there are occasional storms and hardships.

Gu Miao didn't want to shoot Shuangwen.

Although the audience of the cool text plot will be wider, and those children will like it more, making such an animation will make him feel that it is a waste of time.

He wants to tell an inspirational story about growing up, not the story of the invincible life of a genius boy.

"So, Jiang Liuer will lose ......"

When the screenwriting team held a meeting to discuss, Gu Miao said bluntly: "No one can win chess all the time, even the world's No. 1 person like Xiao Ke has experienced many fiascos. ”

Win until you become a chess master?

Such a story is full of fairy tale-like dreams, although it is very beautiful, but it does not reflect the hardships and joys of finally winning the title of "chess saint".

To put it more bluntly, success came too easily and cheaply.

There's a good saying.

What is too cheap, the easier it is to get, the less people will cherish it, and what you can't get is always the best.

This is also the reason why the original "Go Boy" anime only has more than 20 episodes, while the Wanbao version has more than 50 episodes.

The extra 20 episodes mainly depict Jiang Liuer's growth and struggle.

And the plot of the original animation was not completely explained, Gu Miao continued on the basis of the original version.

More than just a continuation!

The background of the entire Wanbao version of "Go Boy" has changed, and the so-called "National Player Competition" has also become a "Chess Saint Title Battle".

The story starts off pretty badly.

But after Jiang Liuer made up her mind to realize her ideal ambition through Go, and after meeting the emperor to clarify the truth of the "Tongwei" case, the plot trend of the Wanbao version is different from the original version.

In the Wanbao version, in order to learn Go well, Jiang Liuer bid farewell to Master Yuande of Lingyun Temple, and wandered along the coast to sharpen his chess skills.

On the way, I met an old beggar, and learned that the old beggar's original name was Lin Xincheng, who was a Ming chess saint when he was young......

When the old chess saint saw Jiang Liuer, he seemed to see himself when he was young.

With the same vigor and the same sharpness, he couldn't bear to see Jiang Liu'er's talent buried, and he was worried that this young man would eventually embark on his old path.

Jiang Liuer worshipped the old beggar as his teacher, and used stones as chess under the waterfall in the forest, painstakingly studying chess skills.

Two years have passed in a flash.

King Fu was still reckless, the looting of the Japanese invaders became more and more rampant and bold, and the people were struggling to make a living.

In order to get close to the minister, Jiang Liu'er told him the information that his father had investigated before his death, and signed up for the Go tournament held by the government, because the first place in this competition would be received by the chincha.

It was also through this competition that Jiang Liuer, who had been practicing for two years, became famous in one fell swoop.

Even the high-ranking King Fu heard of his existence, and after learning that Jiang Liu'er was actually the son of his predecessor Qincha Jiang Lingyun, he sent his subordinates to assassinate him.

"Jiang Liu'er saw Qin Cha, but he didn't expect that this Lord Tang was also a person from King Fu, and this meeting brought him even more death."

"Yes! Jiang Liu'er Fu had a great fate, and with the help of the Demon Sword King, he survived smoothly and fled in the direction of Yingtianfu......"

The screenwriters were gossiping, and soon arranged a drama for Jiang Liuer to escape and then defeat the five heroes in the chess world in Yingtian, and become famous in the Ming Go world.

And then you lose.

Mr. Gu's advice, everyone has not forgotten that after Jiang Liuer defeated the five heroes in the chess world, his reputation has reached its peak in the entire southern Ming Dynasty, and it is time to lose.

And this time you lose, you have to lose unforgettable, which can be called a fiasco......

It is best to arrange for an old fellow who is scheming and full of bad water to defeat Jiang Liu'er in one fell swoop by grasping the weakness of Jiang Liu'er's arrogant and conceited character, and causing the old beggar to die.

"This is good, this is good!"

Gu Miao nodded in approval: "The old beggar, this master, must die, if he doesn't die, how can Jiang Liu'er be reborn in Nirvana?" ”

"Not only the old beggar, but also the characters who helped Jiang Liu'er, such as Master Yuande and the Demon Sword King, will die according to the situation in the future, stimulating Jiang Liu'er step by step."

"Ah......h

Before the screenwriters could speak, Liu Lao, who was observing the meeting, couldn't hold back, and asked with a late face: "Wouldn't this be too cruel?" ”

"Is it cruel? I don't think so! ”

Gu Miao sneered.

Does this seem cruel? If he doesn't do this, where will Jiang Liu'er get the motivation to become a chess master? How can there be a major change in personality?

The edge of the sword is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.

The suffering in the early and middle stages will only make the aura of Jiang Liuer, a chess master, more dazzling, and at the same time make the theme of "inspirational" more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Just like "The Adventures of the Little Carp", there will always be difficulties and obstacles on the way to defeat the leper snake.

Bubble is Jiang Liu'er, and King Fu is the leper snake who pretends to be a "real dragon......

When Gu Miao used "The Adventures of Little Carp" as an example, everyone understood it at once and understood what he meant by "inspirational".

After the storm, finally see the rainbow!

Just as the emperor selected a Go teacher for the crown prince, the title battle of "Chess Saint" officially began after many years, Jiang Liuer moved forward bravely, and finally won the position of Ming Chess Saint at the age of weak crown!

It coincided with the visit of the Fusang chess saint to Daming.

In order to prove that Fusang Go does not lose to the Ming Dynasty, under the witness of the Ming Emperor, the battle between the two chess saints is about to begin.

Jiang Liu'er is the new Ming chess master, and the emperor hopes that he can win this chess game.

Because the raids of the coastal pirates are becoming more and more rampant, the imperial court must suppress the arrogance of the other party, if this game of chess is lost, the imperial court will not only lose face, but will even be underestimated by the surrounding tributary vassal states.

Jiang Liuer agreed.

His only request is that after winning the Fusang Chess Sage, the court will return the innocence of the Demon Sword King and thoroughly investigate the case of Tongwu to avenge his father.

In this game, he won after all.

But it is not easy for Jiang Liuer to win, because Fusang chess is extremely powerful, and he has been forced into a desperate situation many times.

At the end of the animation, Jiang Liu'er thought about it for a whole day, and under the shocked gaze of the Fusang chess saint, he let the chess pieces turn into white dragons and rise into the sky, swallowing the night in one gulp, and the sun rising in the east......

"What a fantasy scene!"

Although he is a world champion, Xiao Ke still can't think of what kind of Go can play this kind of exaggerated effect of "changing the world".

Sure enough, he was still too weak.

What about the World Champion?

Jiang Liuer plays chess, can turn night into day, can play a white dragon out of thin air, is this something he can do?

Don't talk about him, even if you let the alpha dog come, it is estimated that you won't be able to withstand this trick of fantasy Go!

"Haha, it's not that exaggerated."

Gu Miao explained with a smile: "Although the effects presented by the animation will make you feel very outrageous, but putting aside those special effects, isn't this just playing chess until dawn?" ”

Xiao Ke: "......"

Really!

What changed the world? It looks like a god, but according to what Mr. Gu said, isn't it just a night of chess, just at dawn to make a key move!

The white dragon is quite......

But then again, these two people played chess for a day and a night, and the people around them also watched it for a day and a night, and under the premise of extreme exhaustion and sleepiness, it is understandable that they hallucinate, right?

"When you say that, why do you suddenly feel that Fantasy Go has become a scientific Go all of a sudden?"

"It's pretty scientific."

Gu Miao's face did not change: "The special effects are just the icing on the cake, and the chess pieces on the chessboard are the fundamental." ”

Don't look at the process of playing chess, all kinds of thunder, lightning, dragon and tiger roaring, and the special effects are directly full, but those are all pictures for people who don't know how to play Go.

If you have an audience who understands Go, you can completely ignore these special effects and just look at the chessboard.

Children who don't know how to play Go and can't tell who has the upper hand, how can they judge who has the greater advantage? Of course, it's the special effects!

So special effects can't be without, but don't take it too seriously.

After all, the significance of the existence of special effects is just to give those viewers who don't know Go an "intuitive" way to judge the changes in the chess game.

"Makes sense."

"People who don't understand Go really need to judge who plays better through these off-court special effects." Xiao Ke nodded.

Proper artistic processing!

If it is completely realistic, it will not be too interesting, after all, the game of Go is very boring, especially for passers-by who can't understand the changes in the game.

"Don't talk about that."

Gu Miao waved her hand: "What do you think of what I told you earlier?" ”

"You mean...... Wanbao Cup Youth Go Tournament? ”

"That's right!"

After receiving Gu Miao's affirmative reply, Xiao Ke frowned and said, "It's easy to talk about the schedule and competition system, but what's the use of letting me be a promotion ambassador?" ”

He is the first person in the world of Go, although his name is very good, but he really does not have much popularity and influence in the eyes of ordinary people.

Ambassadors?

What can he promote?

Out of the Go circle, how many people can know him? Instead of letting him be a promotion ambassador, it is better to invite a more famous outsider, such as Gu Miao himself.

"Don't underestimate yourself!"

"Who says you're underrated? You just didn't find the right track, you didn't have the opportunity to show your face, and in my opinion, you still have a lot of potential. ”

Gu Miao stretched out her hand and grabbed Xiao Ke's shoulder, squeezed her eyebrows at him and said, "Do you want to play Weibo?" I suggest you play more, and I'll recommend you a few more interesting bloggers when I get back. ”

What's the same thing?

Xiao Ke looked confused, didn't he talk about the promotion ambassador? Why did it come to Weibo in a blink of an eye? He doesn't have many fans on Weibo!

……

Arranging Xiao Ke to be the promotion ambassador was definitely Gu Miao's most prescient decision.

At this time, Xiao Ke has not yet awakened to the abstract essence, so even he can't understand what is the necessity of his existence as a promotion ambassador?

It's not a big problem, though.

When he awakened the abstract essence, incarnated as Emperor Ke Tian to suppress the dark turmoil, and then began to "only play Go" Yunding enlightenment, following the "old three hands" of the common hand, and creating the "new three hands" of pearlescent gauntlets, giant killers, and righteous hands, he understood.

He is definitely qualified to be a promotion ambassador, in addition to him, Gu Miao also plans to pull the eagle sauce and promote the so-called Wanbao Cup Go Tournament together.

When the time comes, don't do anything, put them on the commentary stage, won't the attention of this game come?

Of course!

That's all for later.

The top priority is to finish the animation "Go Boy" as soon as possible, and the rest can be slowed down first.

As the calendar turns a new page, the time has also come to the end of August, and it is about to usher in the golden autumn season that is often on the lips of the presidents in their opening speeches.

The box office of the movie "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeded 4.5 billion and is rushing towards 5 billion......

The "Inuyasha" anime is serialized to the fourth episode, Kagome, who has returned to modern times, is found by Inuyasha, and in order not to affect his family, Kagome chooses to return to the Warring States period with Inuyasha......

The movie "Bear Infested: Raiders of the Lost Ark" landed on the Wanbao Video website for exclusive broadcasting, and the number of views exceeded 200 million in just one week after it was launched......

Penguin officially announced that the new online text adaptation animation project will be launched in September this year, aiming at Wanbao's "Roaming the Animation World", which can be described as a bad come.

Gu Miao didn't care much about the previous news, including the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2", which shocked everyone, and it didn't surprise him.

But Penguin's September sniper "Roaming the World of Animation" latest masterpiece has attracted his attention and attention.

"The Great Demon Lord"!

This is a masterpiece of online literature that was once popular all over the Internet and caused countless primary and secondary school students to go crazy.

I didn't expect even this one to be adapted.,And it seems that the project was established very early.,It's estimated that the production started last year.。

"It's hard to deal with!"

Just the big demon launched by Penguin has already made Wanbao a little difficult to overcome. Even Thunderbolt, who has been silent for a long time, has come out to make trouble, and is about to introduce a super popular neon anime in September - "Welcome to the Fist Supremacy Secondary School Classroom".

Gu Miao has heard of this animation.

But he just glanced at it and didn't pay much attention to it, after all, he wasn't very interested in this kind of plot called Zhidou was really a playhouse.

The fire is definitely hot!

If it weren't popular, Thunderbolt wouldn't have invested heavily in trying to fight Wanbao Video.

Merely......

Compared to Penguin's latest masterpiece, the anime Thunderbolt is not so threatening.

The focus is still on the battle between the two giants of Wanbao Animation and Penguin Animation, as well as the market share competition between Wanbao Video and Penguin Video in the animation sector.

In the final analysis, Thunderbolt, as a small shrimp, does not deserve to be regarded as an opponent by the two giants at all.

After all, the two animations of "The Great Demon Lord" and "Roaming the World of Animation" will not have less than one billion views, and once it falls below this number, it will be a failure!

Is this a battle that a thunderbolt can mix? The animation they pushed hard, thank God for the number of views that can exceed 100 million.

As for a billion?

Wash and sleep, you have everything in your dreams!
