When he returned home, he had just drunk a sip of water and before he had time to sit on the sofa and rest, Jiang Xia was forcibly pushed back to the room by Lin Yanwan.

There is only so much time left in the summer vacation, and there are 12 episodes of cat and mouse to do, and if you don't hurry up, it is estimated that 8 episodes will be enough.

After Lin Xiaoman was sternly warned by her sister not to disturb her brother-in-law, she had to sit on the sofa and watch TV peacefully, anyway, she didn't have to do her summer homework, she could play as much as she wanted.

And Lin Yanwan herself was surfing the Internet in the study to see what the reviews of cats and mice had become after a night of fermentation.

As a result, she still underestimated the influence of cats and mice in this world, and in just one night, Tieba skyrocketed tens of thousands of followers, more than the previous more than a month of publicity combined.

In the bedroom, Jiang Xia was concentrating on drawing the storyboard of episode 15, when he suddenly received a call from Li Weiya, he thought about it, and it was estimated that he asked her to help find two painters last night.

"Hey, Aunt Li."

"Axia, the person you asked me to find has been found."

Li Weiya just answered the phone and said straight to the point: "They are all people with one or two years of work experience in the industry, and their skills are very good, so there should be no problem in serving as the original artist of cat and mouse." ”

"Yes!"

Jiang Xia was overjoyed, and his tone became a little lighter: "They all agreed?" Even if you don't sign a contract, is it okay to be a part-time worker? ”

"As soon as they heard that it was an outsourcing project for the second season of Cat and Mouse, they agreed without much thought." Li Weiya said with a smile: "Who made your work explode overnight, the Internet is full of praise, and countless people are waiting to see the follow-up of the animation, so they also want to gild, and this opportunity will naturally not be missed." ”

Jiang Xia smiled, he is a person in the industry, so he can naturally understand this truth.

With this experience, wherever I look for a job in the future, I can say that I have been in the cat and mouse project team, and my salary will be much higher.

"You see when it's convenient for you, send me some storyboards, and I can test their true level, and you can also see if it's suitable, you know, to do animation, the quality of the original picture is the key." Li Weiya said.

"That's okay, Aunt Li, I'll send you a few storyboards now, and you let them try it."

Jiang Xia took a few relatively clear photos with his mobile phone, then pulled out the memory card, plugged in the card reader, and sent it directly with QQ.

These two talismans did not meet his requirements, and they had to be drawn to know.

It didn't take long for Li Weiya to send back a few original paintings to him.

Jiang Xia examined it carefully, perhaps because the storyboards he drew were more detailed, in short, there was little difference between the original paintings drawn by the two for the same batch of storyboards, only Tom and Jerry's expressions and movements were different, but they both expressed the relevant requirements of the storyboards.

Of course, this problem is also easy to solve, only need a painting supervisor to unify and supervise the overall style of the work, so as to maintain the original painting style to the greatest extent and prevent collapse.

Originally, it was best for Jiang Xia to take on this job, after all, he was the father of cats and mice in this world, and only the pictures in his mind were the most suitable for the original work.

It's a pity that he is very busy now, and the three artists have enough time to squeeze out his time, so he can only devote all his energy to the storyboard.

"Axia, what do you think?" Li Weiya called and asked.

"It's very good, and the painting technique is quite skilled, as long as you can unify the style of painting, you can be familiar with it for a day or two, and you can officially participate in the production. It's ......"

His tone paused slightly, and then he laughed: "Aunt Li, you said before that you would help me check the quality of the original painting, and I don't have much time, you can see ......"

"The overseer's business, okay, just leave it to me." Li Weiya said helplessly: "Anyway, I'm quite familiar with cats and mice, you can draw a storyboard, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

"Hey! Thank you Aunt Li! Jiang Xia was overjoyed, if it was face-to-face at this time, he might have hugged him excitedly.

Li Weiya is very suitable to be the animation supervisor, she is a very experienced art director, and some time ago, in order to reduce the burden on Wang Ming, she participated in the production of cat and mouse, and the unification of the painting style is just a small thing for her.

"How many times have I told you, you don't have to be polite to me, when the second episode of the cat and mouse animation is successfully released, remember to invite me to dinner." She chuckled softly.

In her eyes, Jiang Xia is her student, Wang Ming is her son, rounding off, Qitian Animation Company is equivalent to her own business, who does she not help Jiang Xia?

"You have to have it." He laughed.

"By the way, Aunt Li, you have to tell those two people that the schedule of cats and mice is very tight, and after removing the time for post-editing and dubbing, an episode has to be produced in an average of eight or nine days, which is equivalent to drawing at least eighty or ninety original paintings every day, which is a lot of work, if we can't do it, we will find someone else."

Jiang Xia pursed his lips, thought about it for a while, and continued: "In addition, you have to sign a confidentiality agreement, and once there is any leakage, you will be held legally responsible. Of course, if the follow-up effect is good, there is also the possibility of long-term cooperation in the future. ”

"Okay, I'll get it all on."

The phone hung up, Jiang Xia leaned on the back of the chair and let out a sigh, as long as these two people are reliable, 12 episodes in 2 months is not a difficult task.

When the second season is released, the names of cats and mice will slowly become household names this summer vacation, and the name of Monkey Sky Animation will naturally rise.

His ambition has gradually taken shape.

The door of the living room suddenly opened and closed, followed by Xia Shanshan's laughter, and then the door was gently pushed open, and Lin Yanwan said softly: "Jiang Xia, Auntie is back." ”

He nodded and beckoned to his wife, Lin Yanwan hesitated slightly, glanced at her mother-in-law who walked into the kitchen, walked into the bedroom, and gently closed the door.

"What's the matter, I'm telling you, Mom has come back, don't you want to mess around." Lin Yanwan said vigilantly.

"Where do you want to go, I don't want to get another board on my ass."

Jiang Xia said helplessly: "I just want to tell you, Wang Ming has already found a job for outsourcing temporary workers, I have seen it, the two painters are very good, and they will officially participate in the production in almost two days." ”

"Isn't that good?" She said.

"It's good, but the work that falls on you becomes heavier, and you can produce 3 episodes of animation almost every half a month, and you have to complete the sound effects at once, and there is basically not much time to rest." Jiang Xia said as he held her delicate little hand.

Lin Yanwan said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't delay the progress." ”

Compared with the painter who paints all night at every turn, the job of dubbing is relatively easy, although the time is tight, she will arrange the time.

"I'm not talking about this, I'm afraid you'll be tired."

"It's a joy for the two of us to be able to do the same thing together." Lin Yanwan gently kissed him on the forehead.

The bedroom door was quietly pushed open, and Lin Xiaoman sneakily poked out a head, looking at it from this perspective, it was like her sister taking the initiative to lean over to feed her.

The sister-in-law's eyes widened suddenly, and her little heart was greatly shocked.
