November 8, the beginning of winter.

The imperial capital has officially entered winter, and the daytime temperature is only in the single digits, and the cold wind is biting. In the science and technology park, many yellowed branches and leaves have slowly begun to fall after absorbing the last trace of nutrients.

The central air conditioner in the room was blowing warm air, and Jiang Xia looked out the window blankly, not knowing what he was thinking in his head.

"Mr. Jiang, the heads of all departments and offices have arrived." Qiu Ting knocked lightly on the door and said.

"Oh, okay."

Jiang Xia came back to his senses, glanced at the company's recent related events on the table, took a light breath, got up and walked towards the small conference room.

Almost all of the people who can sit here for a meeting this time are the leadership, and they are the core cadres of Qitian Animation.

"The year is coming soon, although the company's development has been very rapid this year, I still hope that everyone will not slack off, do their own work, and win the last battle of this year." Jiang Xia sat on the main seat of the conference table and said straight to the point.

"First of all, the dimensional festival of Dili Dili New Year's Eve, as the first annual grand party of station D, it is bound to attract the attention of hundreds of millions of people, if it can create a differentiated advantage with the big names of satellite TV on New Year's Eve, station D will maintain the first position in the industry in the next five years."

He looked at the department heads with serious expressions in front of him, and his eyes finally fell on Zhou Lu in front of him.

"Mr. Zhou, there is still more than a month to go until the end of the year, I don't know how the overall process of the party is planned?"

Zhou Lu handed over the documents in his hand and said with a light smile: "The approval for holding an event in the Bird's Nest has been approved, and the main creative team recruited are all well-known teachers in the industry, ensuring that the lighting, stage art, visual, and audio-visual effects of the whole party will be presented in the most perfect form." ”

"It's just that the list of party programs has not yet been officially determined, some stars and guests are still unsure whether to participate, and many of the UP master's programs are still being arranged, and it will be determined in mid-December at the latest."

Jiang Xia nodded: "Okay, I have to work hard for Mr. Zhou during this time, and there must be no mistakes, especially safety issues, and strive to bring everyone a praised audio-visual feast." ”

"We must live up to our mission." Zhou Lu assured.

She naturally knows how significant this party is, but as an online platform, she has done some TV station work.

In order for this New Year's Eve party to be held successfully, she will make sure every aspect of the dimensional festival again and again, and make all aspects as perfect as possible.

After talking about the dimensional grand ceremony, Jiang Xia looked at Wang Ming again.

If the New Year's Eve party is a holy ceremony held by Qitian Company out of its own pocket in order to continue to improve the fame of Station D, then the cat and mouse movie is purely a project to make money.

From hundreds of millions to billions, this money can be said to be extremely easy to earn after the cat and mouse IP is launched.

"Wang Ming, after the New Year's Eve is over, January 22 is Chinese New Year's Eve, how is the production of the cat and mouse dragon fight?"

Wang Ming handed over a copy of the production schedule to Jiang Xia, and said slowly: "The production of the animation is already in the final stage, and it is estimated that it will be almost completely completed in two working weeks." ”

"Well, the teams that cooperate with the production of big movies must do a good job of coordination and send the finished film for review as soon as possible, so that there will be more time for publicity. Jiang Xia took a sip of tea and said lightly.

The heads of each group looked awkward, this is a major event related to the box office of more than one billion, and they can't afford to deal with it.

"Roger!"

"As for the slam dunk, the plot of the national competition is the final climax, and it can't be taken lightly, if it can be successfully concluded early next year, we can start thinking about making a theatrical version."

"Huh!? Mr. Jiang, is it a plan for a big movie? ”

Jiang Xia smiled and nodded: "Yes, there is such a plan, but it is estimated that the June 1st file will not be able to catch up, so it depends on whether it can catch the end of the summer file, but it really can't be done, so it can only be released during the 11th Golden Week." ”

"Wuhu!"

Hearing Mr. Jiang's affirmation, several people in charge of the slam dunk project team almost jumped up with excitement, they had already been eyeing the box office rewards of the cat and mouse movie.

Now that I have plans to make a theatrical version, I can finally bring my project to the big screen.

"But the premise is that the animated version ends successfully, don't make a moth with a broken painting style at the last moment, let me see your determination." Jiang Xia smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang! Mission completion guaranteed! ”

After drawing a small pie for the production team, Jiang Xia's eyes looked at the project director of the four-wheel drive brothers and Pokémon.

They all showed expectant looks in their eyes, hoping to hear some news about the theatrical version, but unfortunately Jiang Xia had nothing to say about these two animation projects for the time being.

After all, the online time is too short, and the first thing is to do animation steadily, sell toys and peripherals honestly, and continue to accumulate popularity.

"Come on, Pokémon's ceiling will not be lower than that of cats and mice, or even higher." Jiang Xia said with a smile.

He has strong enough confidence in Pokémon, this is the world's No. 1 IP that can sell millions of sky-high prices for a global limited card!

After the internal meeting, all the responsible persons returned to their posts to continue their work, and they also wanted to describe the cake painted by Mr. Jiang today to the people below after some processing.

In a word, if you want to get the bonus, don't be lazy for me in the rest of the time, and do it all well.

After everyone left, only Jiang Xia and Li Weiya were left in the conference room.

"Godmother, I'm going to prepare for the exam in December, the cat and mouse movie and the dimensional festival, please take more time." Jiang Xia turned his head to look at Li Weiya and said.

In any case, as the second-in-command of the company, when the time is slightly tight, she needs to handle the film review, publicity and promotion, and theater scheduling, and her face is sometimes more effective than Jiangxia.

As for the dimensional ceremony, there are too many aspects involved in a short period of time, and Jiang Xia is also worried that Zhou Lu will not be able to do it alone, after all, when it comes to art direction, Li Weiya is a professional.

"No problem." Li Weiya smiled and nodded.

"Godmother, do you want to direct a work?" Jiang Xia suddenly asked.

"Me?"

She was slightly stunned, she didn't expect Jiang Xia to ask her like this.

"Hmm."

Jiang Xia said with a smile: "With my godmother's attainments in art, I feel that it is not worth it to just do something behind the scenes silently. ”

Li Weiya was a little helpless: "If I go to do animation, who will handle the company's affairs?" ”

"Godmother, just say if you want to, right?"

"Yes." Li Weiya nodded without hesitation.

She has been working as an art for almost 20 years, she knows what style, and her painting style is also known for her delicate and real, especially good at scenes, she once worked as the art director of "Warcraft" CG outsourcing, and her only regret is that she has not been able to direct an animation.

Now that she has this opportunity, she naturally won't miss it.

"In that case, I'm here to be a screenwriter for my godmother, how about you be a director? The dubbing of the male and female protagonists is also covered with Yanwan, let's work together to make a love movie about boys and girls. Jiang Xia blinked.

Li Weiya asked rhetorically: "Do you already have a little bit in your heart?" ”

"Yes. This idea can't be directed by anyone else except my godmother, and I'm not good at this subject matter myself. Jiang Xia readily admitted.

Hearing this, Li Weiya became interested, there are not many works that can make him evaluate it like this, and it is still a movie theme that can be on the big screen.

And, starting with Cat and Mouse, every work he directed has become a hit in the market, so it can be seen that this new work he said will definitely be very good.

"What kind of story, tell me?"

Jiang Xia didn't hide it anymore, and simply said: "The title of the work is "Your Name", which tells the story of two young boys and girls in different time and space who visited the earth because of a comet that occurs once in a thousand years, woke up and swapped bodies, and then experienced each other's lives and gradually fell in love with each other. ”

"Sounds interesting, but why are they on different planes?"

Li Weiya frowned slightly, the idea of exchanging bodies is not uncommon in literary works, but it is generally in the same time and space, because it is convenient to fall in love.

"Because in the male protagonist's timeline, the comet's visit to the earth was three years ago, and at that time the female protagonist had been killed by the debris dropped by the comet."

Livia: "......"

She choked suddenly, looked at Jiang Xia and said speechlessly: "You told me that this is a love movie?" ”

How can there be a love movie that hands people a knife!

Jiang Xia laughed: "The story is not over yet, it is precisely because it is the intersection of different time and space, so there is more room for operation, and what the male protagonist does is to use the staggered setting of time and space to transmit the news of the comet hitting the earth to the heroine three years ago in advance, as long as she can avoid it, she can survive." ”

Li Weiya raised her eyebrows slightly: "It is equivalent to changing history?" ”

"Yes."

Jiang Xia smiled and nodded, after Makoto Shinkai's work was released in theaters, I don't know how many couples cried, the first half was a romantic comedy, but the second half was heart-wrenching and tearful.

Just for an important person, someone who doesn't want to forget, someone who must not forget, even if she doesn't remember her name, she will always be desperately looking for it.

Even if this love divides time and space and can only meet at dusk, the destined person, even if she forgets her name, will suddenly stop and recognize each other at the moment of heart throbbing the next time she passes by.

Listening to Jiang Xia tell the story roughly, Li Weiya had almost guessed the direction of the plot, the front was relaxed and happy, the back was sadistic, and finally there was an end of meeting in the vast sea of people.

"You have to make the audience cry before you stop, right?" She looked helpless.

Jiang Xia shrugged, depression is the true meaning of this kind of film, if you don't earn enough tears, how can it become a classic and be remembered by the audience?

"Then I'll show my godmother when I'm done writing the script."

"yes, okay." Li Weiya nodded.

To be honest, she is quite interested in this kind of sweet and love-oriented anime movie, whether it is Jiang Xia and Lin Yan's daily dog food, or the affectionate love between her son and Shen Ying, she sees it in her eyes.

Many times Li Weiya is very envious, since her husband died unexpectedly, she has been single and has not remarried for nearly 20 years, but the softness of love in her heart has always been maintained.

Maybe you can use this to express your feelings for love.

After getting Li Weiya's affirmative reply, Jiang Xia was also relieved, if the production process of "Your Name" went smoothly, she could also completely hand over the daily love type to her in the future.

At that time, he will be able to completely free up his hands and do a larger battle blood class in the market.

◇

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the end of December.

The news that Station D will launch the dimensional grand ceremony is officially set for Chinese New Year's Eve, and there will be a carnival belonging to young people, and countless netizens have begun to look forward to how grand this ingenious dimensional festival will be.

In this season's imperial capital, the temperature has dropped below 0 degrees Celsius at night, and the sky is snowing one after another.

The shops on the street are celebrating the Christmas Eve when the Volunteers successfully ended the second battle to resist US aggression and aid Korea, Jiang Xia and Lin Yanwan walked on the street hand in hand, and the young couple, who were busy on weekdays, had a rare opportunity to go out shopping.

Lin Yanwan took a fancy to a fluffy Santa hat, which was also decorated with two cute antlers.

She put it on her head and turned her head to look at Jiang Xia: "Is this hat good-looking?" ”

"Others don't know, anyway, my wife looks very good in it." Jiang Xia said with a smile.

"Flim Flam." Lin Yanwan said coquettishly.

"Don't you know if I have a strong tongue?" Jiang Xia leaned close to his wife's ear and said with a wicked smile.

"Phew!"

She raised her finger in shame and poked him in the chest hard, quickly distancing herself from this shameless fellow, lest she say something nonsense.

Jiang Xia smiled and walked to the cashier to pay the bill.

Lin Yanwan wore the Santa hat she had just bought, and the two continued to shop, but they walked back and forth twice, and there was nothing else they wanted to buy.

There is nothing lacking at home, and I actually want to take a break and experience the Christmas atmosphere by the way.

"Bao'er, do you want to eat rock sugar gourd?"

"Yes!"

"Where's the octopus balls?"

"I want to!"

"Where's the delicious Jiangxia?"

Lin Yanwan glanced at him, lightly bit a rock sugar gourd, looked left and right to see no one, stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed his lips, opened his mouth slightly, and pushed the rock sugar gourd in his mouth over.

"It's so sweet."

Jiang Xia chewed hawthorn contentedly, and he didn't know if he was talking about hawthorn or his wife's soft little mouth.

"Beware of you!"

"Then you have to kiss a few more times." Jiang Xia blinked.

Lin Yanwan snorted softly, did she look so stupid? This guy knows how to take advantage of her.
