"Look at this horse, did I draw it, when did I draw it so well...... What, sir, what did you just say? ”

Cheng Nuo cleared his throat and reintroduced: "I said Xiao Wan, the stall of our Academy of Sciences is very large, it is full of talents, and it speaks well, you can learn a lot of skills by following them, the teachers of the general university are not as good as them, what master's degree, doctor, grab a handful, undergraduates dare not speak loudly, and drink water behind people's backs." ”

I was quite happy to hear it in the front, but when I heard that the treatment of the undergraduate was so bad in the back, Wan Laiming was stunned in his heart: "First ...... Sir, I just graduated from high school and haven't gone to college yet, so if I really want to go in, I don't even have the right to speak. ”

In fact, after Cheng Nuo said those words, he regretted it, not to mention anything else, he himself is an undergraduate, although there are historical reasons, but his academic qualifications can't deceive people, but in order to coax people in, he was cheeky and continued to say it.

Unexpectedly, he was about to lift a stone to shoot himself in the foot, Cheng Nuo hurriedly made amends: "Xiao Wan, don't worry, the reason why they don't dare to speak loudly is that they don't want to disturb other people's learning, our learning atmosphere is very strong, especially the little brother who graduated from middle school like Ling, everyone is very willing to lend a hand to help you." ”

Thinking about the highest education in my life, I didn't expect that there were masters, doctorates and the like, if I went in, my father knew that his waist would be able to straighten up again in the future, and his heart was very moved: "Sir, I am good at drawing, and I can only paint, so the Academy of Sciences is engaged in scientific research, what can I do in the past?" ”

Cheng Nuo laughed after hearing this, this question is nothing in his opinion, as long as he is willing to open his mouth, where can he not stuff people, not to mention that the other party is really a talent he urgently needs.

"That's the case, in order to pass on the spirit of Mr. Sai to more Chinese people, our Academy of Sciences specially founded two magazines, one called "National", the other called "Youth", considering that some knowledge is more obscure, we have opened up a special column, using the form of painting to transmit knowledge, you know, it is difficult to use one mind, they can do learning, painting is really blind."

Afraid that Wan Laiming would not believe it, Cheng Nuo deliberately turned the old book to the first page, that is, the page with the "sick" horse painted by him, pointed to it and laughed at himself: "See, just like this, they can't draw it, I am all top-notch in it, with your skills, if you go in, you will be listed as a guest by them." ”

Hearing this, Wan Laiming was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and put down the hanging heart: "Okay, I will work hard when I go over, and seize all the time to learn more from you." ”

Cheng Nuo said with a smile: "It is worth encouraging to keep your learning heart, but you have to choose a good learning goal, for example, I can't do it, the paintings I draw are simply self-poking in the eyes, and it is miserable." ”

Cheng Nuo's mentality of being screamed by two or three sentences immediately calmed down a lot, and the tension in his heart was completely dispelled, and he was full of confidence in the future again.

Cheng Nuo deliberately added: "But you have to always remind yourself what you are good at and what you want, my purpose is to let you get in touch with more masters and more cutting-edge technologies through the journal of the Academy of Sciences, and make good use of these resources." ”

This candle was almost burning, Cheng Nuo lit another candle, took the wax diagonally and dripped it onto the table, and set up the new candle before it solidified.

At the same time, two candles were lit, and the room suddenly became brighter, and with the help of Guang Chengnuo, he took out the old book and quickly flipped through the painting again, and the great sage appeared in front of the two again on a horse.

"Just like that, the animation should not only have simple lines, but also mountains, water, backgrounds, flowers and trees, and men, women and children can join in.

At the same time, we should not only be satisfied with black and white, but also need to add more colors, such as goose yellow, green onion, begonia, indigo, patina, etc., to make this picture smart and cheerful. ”

At this point, Cheng Nuo deliberately paused and asked, "If we do these two things, can the animation be satisfied?" ”

At present, there have been a lot of American silent films, which have gradually become one of the daily entertainment methods of many Shanghai citizens, although Wan Laiming has no money to watch, but he still has some understanding of these things.

Biting his lip and thinking for a while, Wan Laiming replied: "There are no color films in the United States now, if we can do these two, it is already very possible." ”

When it comes to the development of color films, it will not be introduced into the market until around 1930, and it will not be until the first color film recognized by film history until 1935's "Flashy World", which is very far from Cheng Nuo's era.

In terms of animated films, the first animated color film was Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", released in 1937, with a cost of $1.5 million, the first round of distribution received $8 million, and the final box office revenue was $416 million.

You know, this is 400 million US dollars at the beginning of the 20th century, which is not the same as the 400 million US dollars in Cheng Nuo's previous life.

After hearing Wan Laiming 's answer, Cheng Nuo was a little disappointed, but considering that not everyone has a vision beyond the times, he can think so long-term, and it is also because of the blessing of the crossing, if it is a local, maybe it is not as good as others.

Shaking his head, Cheng Nuo said: "It's not enough to just make the lines rich and the picture colorful, just like our life, can you accept the life of deafness?" ”

Wan Laiming was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses and said in disbelief: "You said that we can't add color to the animation, and we need to add sound?" ”

Cheng Nuo was arrogant: "We want to do our best, and only produce high-quality products, ten years without a sound, if you don't make a sound, it's just a blockbuster!" ”

Pointing to the high and low candles, Cheng Nuo continued: "Just like the two of them, the former will run out of oil immediately, and the latter will take the flame and still release youth. It's the same with our culture, from the bonfire in the past to the candle in the middle and then the oil lamp in the back, the flame has been passed down from generation to generation, and now that we have electric light, we have a responsibility to shine even brighter. ”

After saying this, the flame of the original candle that was the size of a broad bean was completely extinguished, and the new candle instantly brightened as if it had been enlightened.

Wan Laiming thoughtfully, put all the solidified wax dripping on the table into the new candle, and watched it burn out, and the last traces of the old candle in this world were also erased.

"Sir, I understand, I will work hard later."

Cheng Nuo nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, but don't put so much pressure on yourself, you are still young, the road is still long, and there are so many people from our Academy of Sciences behind you to support you." ”

Unexpectedly, at this time, Wan Laiming suddenly said: "Sir, you are right, I can't do it alone, so can I apply to you, I want to call more people here." ”

Cheng Nuo opened his mouth and replied: "Very good, there is no problem, have you thought of a good candidate, if you don't move, I will go over in person." ”

Wan Laiming was delighted, but also a little twisted: "I thought about it just now, even my younger brothers, like me, also like painting, are also very fond of painting, and even more talented than me." ”

Good guys, buy one get three free?

If it were someone else, Cheng Nuo might hesitate, but thinking that it was a classic combination of the Wan brothers, he didn't want to agree.

But considering that it was too abnormal to agree directly, he pretended to hesitate and said, "This is ...... Let me think about it. ”

The words have already been said this, Wan Laiming gritted his teeth and continued: "If it doesn't work, forget it, let them learn other things later, and follow his eldest brother and me to learn to paint, I'm afraid I'll starve to death." ”

Cheng Nuo saw that the time was almost up, and hurriedly said: "Juxian does not avoid relatives, multiple helpers will make our work progress faster, since you already have the basis for cooperation, for your sake, call them together." ”

Wan Laiming was full of joy, and the impulse to die for his confidant was great, so he patted his chest and promised again and again: "Don't worry, sir, if something goes wrong with them, I, the first big brother, can't spare them!" ”

Cheng Nuo encouraged: "Young people, you should venture more, I believe you can grasp the future of animation." ”

As a result, Cheng Nuo absorbed the Wan brothers, the originators of Chinese animation, and started the animation business in advance.

Lack of funds, look for Jiang Jiang Zuo.

Lack of technology, look for Tesla.

As for the titular dean Cheng Nuo, of course, he has to be busy collecting more people.

The answer to what was most important in the 20th century was talent.

Just as Cheng Nuo was imagining, Wan Laiming had already cleaned up the venue, extinguishing the candle in his hand, and always felt that it was a little weird.

"Sir, where did you get this candle?"

Cheng Nuo was puzzled: "I brought it from the venue next door, I saw that there were a lot of candles at the door, so I took them casually." ”

Wan Laiming held back a laugh, turned his wax body and saw that there was a golden word "囍" on it.

Cheng Nuo immediately felt that his head was buzzing, and he walked to the venue next door, where the word "Xi" was pasted on the outside, which was used by people to arrange a new-style wedding.

"Sir, what do you think we should do, do we want to return it?"

"What's more, it's all used up so much, can new people continue to use our old goods?"

"So what to do?"

"What else can I do, put more money, as a follower, be happy, see me get this thing done."

Not to mention, after the money, there is really a happy event to the door.

Early the next morning, two tall and thin young men stood in front of the original bazaar, both dressed in suits.

With a big back, Wang Zhu looked at the venue with a big "Xi" spirit, Wang Zhu said in confusion: "Yunhua, we won't be in the wrong place, this looks like a place to get married, not like an auction, the newlyweds immediately walked out of the sedan chair, and the candles were lit." ”

Combing four or six open, Ba Yuzao's face was full of question marks, he didn't dare to confirm it, and then looked at the note in his hand, and hesitated in his mouth: "This is the address given by the people, let's make sure it's not wrong." ”

Wang Zhu said that he stretched his head over and wanted to look at the note: "You shouldn't see 6 as 9, so the difference is big." ”

Seeing that his friends didn't believe it, Ba Yuzao handed over the note: "You still don't believe me, this note is clearly written, how can you be wrong, or you can take a closer look at this house number to see if I am mistaken." ”

The note was handed over, but it was really angry, Wang Zhu wouldn't really be stupid to take the note: "Didn't I say it, I guess we're late, why don't I go over and ask?" ”

Ba Yuzao nodded: "It's not a way for us to make things up by ourselves, so it's okay to ask in the past." ”

As they thought, the bazaar had ended yesterday, and they had missed the last day.

came all the way over, but it ended in failure, which made the two of them a little disappointed, and they originally wanted to go back directly like this.

Unexpectedly, the relatives and friends of the newlyweds were very enthusiastic, seeing that they were well-dressed, they were not ordinary people at first glance, and they looked handsome, so they were even more enthusiastic, and they simply held their hands and did not let go, and they could not leave until they had eaten the feast.

"Uncle and aunt, the two of us are not locals, and we don't know newcomers, so I'm really embarrassed to sit down."

"It's okay, who is born to know, sit down and we won't know each other."

"But we haven't paid for it yet, it's too bad to eat and drink for nothing."

"Hey, you didn't know each other before, so you don't need to sit down and be happy, if you really don't want to go, just go up and say two words of blessing at the meeting. By the way, you two brothers are married, and there are a few girls in my family, all of whom are beautiful and beautiful......"

Seriously, if the two young people really want to go crazy and leave, the uncles and aunts can't stop them at all.

How can everyone be kind, at least on the surface, the two of them are quite helpless, and the wedding scene of the newlyweds is a day of great joy, which is really not good to shake face.

Ba Yuzao quietly withdrew his hand from his aunt's hand, and said without a trace: "Auntie, my family has already said that I will get engaged at the end of the year, I am really sorry." ”

The aunt felt a little regretful, but she didn't want to give up: "I heard you say that I just came back from a foreign country, I don't know the situation in China, and I can have three wives and four concubines, there is a girl in my second sister's family, although she was divorced, but she looks pretty good, it's better to get to know her." ”

Not to be outdone, the uncle was not to be outdone, and said with encouragement: "Isn't this not engaged, everything is easy to say, now it is different from the old society before, the emphasis is on free love, how to know which pair of shoes fits without trying?" ”

Seeing that his friends said that they couldn't say that those uncles and aunts were about to disarm and surrender, Wang Zhu covered his mouth with one hand, afraid of laughing out loud, but he couldn't continue to watch the excitement, in case the next target of the uncles and aunts was him, he quickly stood up and surrounded him: "Auntie, did we have a charity bazaar before?" ”

The aunt was stunned for a moment, and then said enthusiastically: "Yes, it just ended yesterday, don't you know, you can't see many cars on the street usually, and the neighborhood was directly blocked that day, and the people who set up the banquet almost couldn't get in." ”

Seeing that the attention of the uncles and aunts was attracted, Wang Zhu added another handful of firewood: "Then it is estimated that it will be sold a lot, right?" ”

The aunt looked left and right, put the back of her hand to her mouth, and whispered: "I heard that it was sold for 200,000 oceans, and this is all replaced by Yuan Datou, and I have to crush someone to death." ”

At this moment, as if she had discovered a new world, the aunt picked up her finger and pointed out the door.

"Yes, yes, that's him, he's the person in charge of yesterday's bazaar, not to mention handsome, he is still talented, I heard that he is a professor at a university in Beijing......"

Before he could finish speaking, Ba Yuzao and Wang Zhu got rid of the uncle and aunt, rushed out of the door, and rushed towards the person outside the door.

It was none other than Cheng Nuo who was outside the door.

Considering that I used other people's candles without permission last night, although I gave money, I still didn't want to go, so I went out early in the morning and bought a one-to-one identical candle and sent it over, the purpose was to make up for the mistake.

It's just that I didn't expect that as soon as the candle was delivered, two people rushed over, and it was difficult to talk at first glance.

"The gentleman doesn't do it, the two eldest brothers say well, let's not do it, it's unlucky to do it on a happy day."

From Cheng Nuo's point of view, the two people on the opposite side not only did not give up, but ran faster in this direction, and there seemed to be uncles and aunts cheering behind them, and they were really fighting at a glance.

", although I was at fault first, I have already given you money, and I have bought one-to-one identical ones, so I can't get an inch out of it."

As he spoke, Cheng Nuo was also moving fast, for fear of being caught up by these two people.

Ba Yuzao and Wang Zhu glanced at each other, both of them were full of confusion, why did they still run up, but looking back at these uncles and aunts, they understood for themselves.

I see, the same is the end of the world.

"The big brother in front, don't run away, we're in a group."

"Yes, big brother, don't talk about it, we have something to do with you, stop and let's talk about it."

Cheng Nuo secretly disdained: Nonsense, who doesn't know that you have something to do with me, let me stop and use force again, it's a fool not to run.

At the same time, I also regret in my heart, I should have put the matter of the school worker guard on the agenda earlier, and I can't delay it any longer, if something happens, it will be too late to regret it.

Just as he was distracted, he didn't notice that there was a brick in front of him that was alive, and he fell directly to the ground with his feet empty.

This is good, the distance between the people in front and behind was instantly shortened, and while they got up, Ba and Wang also ran over, panting to hug Cheng Nuo and not let him run anymore.

Cheng Nuo, who was in the misunderstanding, thought that people were going to make a move, and he was about to fight back immediately, but he didn't expect to easily give someone an over-the-shoulder fall and fall on the bushes behind him.

Considering that it is better to settle the problem than to tie the knot, this over-the-shoulder fall only puts the person down, and even collects the force when he is put down to prevent the person from being broken.

Even so, it takes no too much strength to put down two young adults before and after.

Looking at his hands, Cheng Nuo said in disbelief, in the past, peace was precious, but I didn't expect to really start working, the strength is not small, although it can't be a big move, but this is also a good thing, and the safety of life in the future is more guaranteed.

Just as he was still in reverie, a trembling voice came from behind.

"We really have something to do with you, not to get married, not to have a banquet, not to be a part, and it has nothing to do with the uncles and aunts."

"I just missed yesterday's bazaar, I can't take pictures, I want to come to you for donations, it's such a simple thing, why bother to be rude."

Looking at the other party's pitiful appearance, Cheng Nuo immediately regretted it, he really shouldn't have taken the things of his compatriots privately, otherwise there would be such a misunderstanding.

When I inquired later, it was even more terrible.

The two of them returned to China to build airplanes, and if they broke them, they would be guilty of a great crime.

Looking at the eyes of the two brothers, it was both apologetic and longing.
