My Animation Era

Chapter 468 The Japanese soldiers in Maoershan (please subscribe)

The mysterious "X" plan.

Also known as "The Glorious Past of Little White Rabbit", it can also be called "Those Things About That Rabbit That Year".

Anyway, the project has not yet been named and is still in the planning feasibility study stage, so it can be called whatever it is.

This is not the point.

The point is that once this plan was proposed, it quickly encountered serious setbacks.

Many TV stations that have maintained close cooperation with Wanbao Animation and are deeply involved in the production of Wanbao's new projects have made it clear that they do not support Plan X.

"This is a minefield!"

Thinking of what the person in charge of the Beijing Kuka Children's Channel said on the phone not long ago, Gu Miao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Doesn't he know?

As a planner, he certainly knew that this was a minefield, comparable to walking a tightrope on a cliff. If he wasn't careful, he would fall to pieces.

This is not a matter of making money or not.

For other animations, the worst thing you can do is lose some money, and you can just find an opportunity to make it back next time. But if this X project is not filmed well, there may even be serious problems...

That's not certain. The entire Wanbao Group and even the TV station will have to "send" it together!

The TV station is not stupid either.

The political risks are so high that you are risking your future career. If you win the bet, you won't get much profit. If you lose the bet, everyone, including the director and deputy director, will be "forced to retire."

Who dares to bet?

Precisely because the risks are too high and the uncertainties are too great, the TV station refuses to get involved in Project X, and even advises Wanbao not to be stupid.

Let’s honestly take pictures of other worlds, the robots, four-wheel drive vehicles, and even Sailor Moon and Pleasant Goats that they are good at!

all in all.

It doesn't matter if you shoot any other subject. As long as Wanbao is willing to shoot, everyone will support Gu Sanshui as always.

Only for this subject matter, no!

Too sensitive...

After conveying the attitude of the TV station to Hou Bin, Gu Miao was silent for a moment and then asked: "What do you say? Do you still dare to film it now?"

"To be honest, I don't dare anymore."

Hou Bin said with a smile: "I don't have the guts to bet on the future of the company. If I am the only one who gets punished in the end, then I can accept it and forget about it affecting the company."

Understandable.

When Gu Miao heard this, she couldn't help but nodded.

Project

No matter how you say it, Hou Bin is just an ordinary employee.

Even if Gu Miao had the confidence to leave the company's future to him, he didn't have the guts to make a bet with Mr. Gu's hard work.

"That's okay."

Gu Miao sighed and said, "Since you said so, I won't advise you. So besides Project X, do you have any other plans?"

"I have an idea..."

"I have been studying and discussing Project X recently. That period of modern history intertwined with blood and tears has kept me awake all night."

Hou Bin said with a somewhat serious tone: "Children today, their lives are too easy and comfortable. I want them to understand one thing."

"We don't live in a peaceful era, we just live in a peaceful country."

"well said!"

Gu Miao clapped her hands and said, "I support you. Today's young people have indeed forgotten their roots."

"After living in comfort and ease for so long, they forget who created their current life..."

"I want to shoot anti-Japanese themes!"

Hou Bin said with firm eyes: "Everyone is tired of watching anti-Japanese dramas, but I think children have never seen anti-Japanese cartoons."

"This is indeed..."

Gu Miao nodded.

Anti-Japanese dramas are broadcast on almost all TV stations across the country, and the frequency is extremely high, which can be said to be non-stop 24 hours a day.

Can a cartoon with anti-Japanese themes be produced?

This is indeed rare. It seems that Meiying Studio previously produced "Tunnel War" or other anti-Japanese themed cartoons. Gu Miao can't remember clearly.

He only remembered it anyway.

This type of animation is usually produced by art film studios that are "state-owned enterprises". Private animation companies generally do not deal with this subject matter.

Do not misunderstand!

The reason why animation companies rarely work on this subject is different from the reason why Project X was abandoned by Hou Bin.

The risk of anti-Japanese themes is not high.

The reason why people are not willing to take pictures is mainly due to audience issues. The animation industry, especially domestic animation, mostly targets underage children.

You make anti-Japanese animations and tell anti-Japanese stories for children. Unless the filming is very interesting and interesting, it will be difficult for the children to become interested.

There's no way around it.

Even some adults find it boring when anti-Japanese themes are mentioned, let alone children who don't understand anything.

Therefore.

Everyone simply gave up on the plan to tell anti-Japanese stories to children and produce anti-Japanese themed animations.

Gu Miao is very happy that Hou Bin can have the idea of ​​​​"facing difficulties".

But while he was happy, he also wanted to know from what angle Hou Bin planned to start? Is it the way of tunnel warfare, or the way of a domestic anti-Japanese drama?

Or, Xiaobing Zhang Ga?

The scope of anti-Japanese themes is very wide, and there are many entry points. If you want to capture the hearts of the audience, choosing a suitable entry point is definitely the top priority.

"I think..."

Hou Bin pondered: "Since this is an animation for children, let's use children as the protagonists. What do you think, Mr. Gu?"

"Can!"

"At the same time, because the length of animation cannot be compared with that of TV series, the area where the story takes place should also be reduced as much as possible."

Hou Bin took out his mobile phone, opened the map software, pointed at a location and said, "Maoer Mountain, this is the place I chose for the story to take place."

"Everything revolves around the Japanese soldiers stationed at the foot of Mao'er Mountain and the children in the local villages..."

Maoer Mountain?

The name Gu Miao is familiar!

After listening to Hou Bin's narration, he couldn't help but ask: "By the way, the name of your animation won't be "Japanese Soldiers of Mao'er Mountain", right?"

"Mr. Gu, how do you know?"

Hou Bin asked in confusion: "That shouldn't be the case. How did you know about the plan that I just came up with with my friends?"

"Uh! Your friend?"

"Yes, he is a stage play writer. I told him that I wanted to make an anti-Japanese animation, and he shared the story with me." Hou Bin explained.

What a coincidence?

Gu Miao, who realized that Hou Bin, his friend, might not be that simple, immediately became interested and said, "This friend of yours is not simple! Help me ask him if he is interested in coming to Wanbao? Everything about salary and benefits is easy to discuss!"

"Okay, I'll ask him later."

Hou Bin nodded first, and then asked: "Mr. Gu, do you think "The Japanese Soldiers of Mao'er Mountain" can be approved for production?"

"Yes, of course."

After Gu Miao finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, and the corner of his mouth twitched and said: "But I have to remind you, don't save me money and create any eye-catching 3D effects..."

Don’t do that kind of thing!

Quack, quack, I dug out cold potatoes and found an old-fashioned iron lunch box from 20 years ago. Guess what's inside?
