Chapter 1074: Remake of Havoc in the Heavenly Palace

A lithography machine is out of the question.

If Ma Kui had this ability, he would not have passed the second line in the college entrance examination at the beginning, and he would not even be able to go to a better university.

But he's really doing something big!

When Gu Miao and Xiao Xiong arrived at the Dimension Studio and saw Ma Kui, who was worried about the 3D modeling of "Tang Seng", there was an acquaintance next to him.

Liang Xiaodong!

That's right, Liang Xiaodong, the head of the puppet studio, is actually here, and he has always been there.

"What are you doing here......

Gu Miao asked curiously, "Isn't there a new project in the puppet studio?" Why did you come to help Ma Kui with chores? ”

"He's not here to do chores!"

Before Liang Xiaodong could speak, Ma Kui rolled his eyes and explained: "I have cooperated with him, and I also joined the American Film Studio to make a 3D remake of "Havoc in Heaven" on the basis of "Journey to the West 3D". ”

it!

Hearing this, not only Gu Miao was stunned, but even the little bear on the side was shocked.

"What do you say? The United States Film Studio wants to release a remake of "Havoc in Heaven"? ”

"That's right! It's the one you think of making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, the pinnacle of the American Film Studio! ”

Ma Kui nodded and said, "But this time they don't plan to use pure hand painting, but use 3D technology to remake it." ”

"The hand-painted version of Havoc in the Heavenly Palace, it's too difficult to reproduce it again!" Liang Xiaodong sighed on the side and said.

Not to mention the hollowing out of talents in American film studios, assuming that there are enough manpower, time and energy are also insurmountable.

Why is "Havoc in Heaven" an eternal classic of domestic animation?

Because it represents the era of planned economy, the highest artistic achievement in the domestic animation industry, the feature film has to draw hundreds or even thousands of original drawings in an average minute.

Such a huge project is simply unimaginable today.

Therefore, the purely hand-drawn "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" has become a swan song, and there is no possibility of reproduction in the future.

But "Havoc in Heaven" is indeed the pride of the American studio, and they also thought about remaking a version of the "Havoc in Heaven" animated film in the new era.

By coincidence......

When Liang Xiaodong went to visit the old-timers in the American Film Studio, he mentioned to him that Wanbao was preparing for the "Journey to the West 3D" project in production.

The studio was interested.

The 3D production of "Journey to the West" TV animation, and there are three investors in CCTV animation, Wanbao animation and Wonder Animation, which is not strong.

As we all know, the story of Havoc in Heaven is based on the first few chapters of the original "Journey to the West".

Case......

The American Film Studio, which was planning to remake "Havoc in Heaven", quickly approached Ma Kui to discuss and communicate about cooperation.

Meiying Studio helped Wanbao complete the production of the TV animation of "Journey to the West 3D", while Wanbao needed to help Meiying Studio complete the 3D remake of "Havoc in Heaven".

"Although there are two signs and two production teams have been set up, the personnel, props, models and even music are all shared."

Ma Kui explained: "To be honest, this 3D remake of the "Havoc in Heaven" movie is actually a derivative theatrical version of "Journey to the West 3D". ”

It's all made by the same people.,The painting style and character modeling are exactly the same.,That's not a derivative theatrical version!

Even the funding is ......

When he said this, Ma Kui asked weakly: "Mr. Gu, you shouldn't be angry, right?" ”

"No!"

"You said it, the American film studio also contributed to us, which is equivalent to resource exchange, I think it's no problem." Gu Miao shook her head and said.

If it is a unilateral payment, then Ma Kui's indiscriminate spending of money will definitely arouse Gu Miao's anger, but this is not a unilateral payment, but an exchange of manpower sharing resources reached by the United States Film Studio and Wanbao Animation.

That's acceptable.

"Project platter" is very common in the film and television animation industry, a hero with three gangs, multiple friends and many roads!

Xiao Xiong has no opinion.

Originally, the project "Journey to the West 3D" had three investors, which is equivalent to the joint production of CCTV Animation, Wanbao Animation and Fun Animation, and it is nothing to add a beautiful film studio.

Compared with this, it is still a 3D remake of "Havoc in Heaven" that attracts the two more.

This is normal!

After all, both of them watched the classic hand-drawn version of "Havoc in Heaven" on TV when they were children, and they were deeply shocked.

Now that they know that the American studio is going to remake the film, and they can participate in it themselves, it must be fake to say that they are not excited.

"So what about them?"

"Quick, take us around! I'm too curious about what the 3D version of Havoc looks like! Gu Miao urged.

Ma Kui had a question mark on his face.

Didn't you two come to see him to learn about the progress of the "Journey to the West 3D" project? Why did you hear the news of the remake of "Havoc in Heaven", and immediately empathize with it?

Who understands the family!

Investors come to the project team to inspect and want to learn about other projects, but they are indifferent to their own projects.

complained and complained, Ma Kui still took Gu Miao and Xiao Xiong to visit the production site of the remake of "Havoc in Heaven" next door.

……

There are five parties from the United States Film Studio, Wonder Animation, CCTV Animation, Wanbao Dimension Studio, and the outsourcing team, gathered in the production team of "Journey to the West 3D" and "Havoc in Heaven 3D".

The main production team of the two works is from Wedo Studio.

This also made Gu Miao extremely pleased, because this represents the dimension studio that was disliked in the past, and now it has come to the forefront of the world in 3D animation technology.

Of course!

Technological breakthroughs and leadership do not mean that the finished quality of animation must be high.

Because animation is more than just technology!

Especially in the area of 3D animation, strong technical strength can only ensure that the upper limit of the work is very high, but it does not mean that the lower limit is also high.

In the industry, there are some very strong skills, but the animations made are based on the team and works of the defense.

Don't be surprised!

Just because the technology is good doesn't mean that these people can use it well. As a simple example, will the same painting tool be displayed in the hands of different artists?

It's definitely different!

In fact, in terms of CG special effects, Wedo Studio is not inferior to some well-known foreign animation studios.

However, there is still a lot lacking in artistic attainments and aesthetic design.

This is also the reason why people can make all kinds of jaw-dropping and beautiful animation scenes, and Dimension Studios has not played its due strength so far.

That's all before, though.

Through in-depth cooperation with the American studio, they provided a lot of suggestions on the aesthetic design of the animation, and combined with the technical strength of Wedo Studio, the effect of the remake of "Havoc in Heaven" is absolutely shocking.

"This is the Four Heavenly Kings?"

"Yes!"

Seeing that Mr. Gu seemed to be frightened by the four giants in front of the screen, Ma Kui joked with a smile: "The sense of oppression is very strong, right?" But that's what we want to do! ”

"I know what you mean, but that's not right, is it?"

"If I'm not mistaken, Fa Tian Xiang Earth should be a kind of great supernatural power in "Journey to the West", could it be that the Four Heavenly Kings will also?" Gu Miao frowned and said.

"This is not the law of heaven and earth!"

"To be precise, this should be the true appearance of the Four Heavenly Kings, and the so-called true appearance refers to the original appearance."

Ma Kui explained: "You can understand that the four heavenly kings of the Heavenly Court are actually disguised forms of normal human body shapes, and this is the real battle form of the four heavenly kings. ”

Monsters will show their original form, as the four heavenly kings of the heavenly court, they are also the four famous gods in "Journey to the West", if they have no ability, how can they be worthy of the title of "heavenly king"?

"You ......"

Gu Miao shook her head, not evaluating the pros and cons of this approach, but asked: "Since the Four Heavenly Kings are so huge, how can Sun Wukong fight them?" ”

"The law is like heaven and earth!"

"Havoc in the Heavenly Palace, the focus is on the word trouble, how to conceive a wonderful fighting scene is the most difficult problem faced by "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace"." Ma Kui said with a smile.

No problem!

Havoc in the Heavenly Palace, if the scene is not shocking enough, is it still a "big fuss"?

Speaking of which, Gu Miao immediately understood why in the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D", the image of the Four Heavenly Kings would be so shocking.

"That's right!"

As if thinking of something, Gu Miao asked again: "In this version of the Havoc Heavenly Palace, there won't be a plot like the Jade Emperor being scared to drill the table, right?" ”

"Nope!"

Ma Kui shook his head: "We strictly follow the original plot of "Journey to the West", and we don't refer to the TV series to do animation, how can there be this paragraph?" ”

The 86 version of the TV series is a classic.

But classics are classics, and there are many details in them that can't stand scrutiny, Wanbao is an adaptation of the original book of "Journey to the West", not an adaptation of a TV series, so it will naturally be different in some places.

"That's good!"

Gu Miao was relieved when she heard this.

He was really afraid that Ma Kui was too superstitious about the 86 version of the TV series when he was making "Journey to the West 3D", and took the original plot of the TV series seriously.

Now it seems that he still has a brain, can clearly distinguish what artistic decoration is, and will not blindly refer to similar works.

"Then again......"

"You are both the director of "Journey to the West 3D" and the director of "Havoc in Heaven 3D", can you be busy?"

Gu Miao is very skeptical, how much benefit did Ma Kui promise to the American Film Studio to make him the chief director of "Havoc in Heaven 3D"?

This doesn't make sense!

Just Ma Kui, how can he de! What qualifications does he have to direct a remake of a classic animation like Havoc in Heaven? Are all the people in the studio blind?

"Hey, not only can I direct, I can also put my name on the opening credits of the movie!" Ma Kui said proudly.

It's cheap!

I really want to punch him.

Gu Miao and Xiao Xiong always pouted in unison, they really couldn't stand the show-offs of this guy, the key was that they couldn't refute it, this was the most embarrassing.

"I hope you can do what you say, making trouble in the Heavenly Palace is not an ordinary IP, if you mess up, don't blame me for scolding you!" Gu Miao warned.

It's not that he's alarmist.

As the pinnacle of American film studios and a milestone in Asian animation, "Havoc in Heaven" has a very special meaning in the hearts of many people.

Such a movie, after many years, will launch a 3D remaster, I believe there are definitely a lot of viewers looking forward to it.

If Ma Kui succeeds, then he will definitely be able to become famous in one fight, with a reputation no less than Gu Miao, and he is highly sought after by fans.

But if it's messed up......

It's him who won't talk about it anymore, he really messed up this movie, and when the time comes, he will not only be scolded, but he may also be hung up by netizens on the pillar of shame of Guoman.

"Don't worry, I know it."

Hearing Mr. Gu's words, Ma Kui rarely returned to seriousness: "For this reason, I am willing to gamble on my career, as long as this work fails, I will ......"

"Stop, stop!"

As soon as Gu Miao heard this thing's speech, he hurriedly waved his hand to stop it: "Don't stand the flag, listening to what you say, I have a feeling that I will come back to marry you after the battle." ”

Baoyou, don't say this!

Gu Miao, who originally trusted him, now looks at Ma Kui's eyes, as if he is looking at an old general on the stage, he simply doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.

"That's what it means, anyway!"

The visit is also over, and almost everything that should be seen has been watched, because the animation has not yet been completed, Ma Kui took the two of them to the office, planning to tell Mr. Gu about the arrangements and plans after that.

I have to say that his ambition is still quite big.

"Havoc in Heaven 3D" and "Journey to the West 3D" projects are one and the same, and he actually planned to let "Havoc in Heaven" be released first, so as to accumulate popularity and popularity for the follow-up "Journey to the West 3D" TV animation.

"Is it too late?"

Gu Miao took a sip of the coffee that Ma Kui had just made for him, and couldn't help asking: "I've just started watching the movie, can I really release it before the start of "Journey to the West 3D"?" ”

"It's ...... in time"

"There's still a long way to go!"

The tentative construction period of the animation "Journey to the West 3D" project is 26 months, which is a full two years.

In two years, making a theatrical version of a big movie in the middle should not be a big problem for the combination of Wedo Studio and American Studio.

By the way.

"Journey to the West 3D" is expected to be two years, which is not very accurate two years. If you encounter an accident or a change, it is not impossible to skip the ticket to three years later.

"Two years......"

Gu Miao took a deep breath and said with a sigh: "This should be the animation with the longest construction period since the establishment of our Wanbao Animation." ”

Thinking of this animation, it will take more than 24 months to get a glimpse of the true face, Gu Miao admires Mr. Xiong a little.

Ordinary people, hearing that the construction period is as long as two to three years, may have already shown a trace of impatience or even regret.

But his expression was as calm as ever.

Terrible!

It will take at least two years to see the return on investing so much money, and no one is sure what will happen after two years, why is he so calm?

"Actually, it's fine! It may seem to you that two or three years is a long time, but I'm used to it. ”

Xiao Xiong shrugged his shoulders and said: "To engage in real estate development, which real estate project does not need to wait for several years to see the benefits?" ”

Truly!

Xiao Xiong was born in a real estate tycoon, and has been fully mentally prepared for this kind of project that takes many years to incubate.

On the contrary, Gu Miao herself, because she is used to making short-term investments, suddenly comes to a long-term project, she feels uncomfortable and even has a hard time......
