My Animation Era

After the first duel competition ended, Gu Miao did not immediately return to the production team of the animation "That Rabbit That Year".

There was something else he needed to arrange.

"Yu-Gi-Oh!" has now opened up in the country, and is extremely popular. All aspects are on the right track, and there is no need to worry about it anymore.

But foreign markets have not yet been developed...

As a trading card game that was popular all over the world in its previous life, "Yu-Gi-Oh!" whether it is a TV animation, comic, or even a derivative card, it is necessary to go overseas.

Unfortunately, the progress is not very smooth.

The main obstacle lies in the "translation" of card effects and text.

The number of cards in "Yu-Gi-Oh!" is astonishing, and each card needs to be translated "Xindaya". Otherwise, how will others understand how to play the game?

This matter cannot be rushed.

Gu Miao asked the translation team to give priority to the translation of TV animations. As for the translation of physical cards, they can take their time later.

After duplication, the English, French, German, Spanish and Japanese versions of "Yu-Gi-Oh!" will be broadcast in many overseas countries in mid-to-late September.

It's early September.

Along with the drizzle of rain, the temperature in Jiangchuan dropped sharply. Gu Miao, who was keeping cool in short-sleeved clothes, unexpectedly caught a cold.

Colds are not serious.

It stands to reason that if you take some medicine and rest at home for a day or two, there won't be much of a problem.

But now Wanbao Animation, especially the production team of "That Year of the Rabbit", cannot do without Gu Miao, the chief director, who can't take a break even if he wants to.

As a last resort, Gu Miao had no choice but to go to work despite being sick.

According to the latest work schedule, the episode being produced is the sixth episode, titled: Negotiations and Mushroom Bombs.

Because it is a unit drama.

Therefore, when producing, it is not necessary to produce in the order of the episodes, but to decide based on the actual situation.

In other words, although the production of the sixth episode started today, the fifth and fourth episodes may not actually have been produced yet.

Of course, that's not the point.

No matter which episode you do first, you have to be extremely energetic as soon as you start production. There is no such thing as saying that this episode can be sloppy and the next episode will be more serious.

The story of episode six is ​​simple.

In order to allow the younger generations to straighten their backs, in order not to be bullied by beasts like Eagle Sauce in the future, and for a better life... Rabbit decided to make mushroom bombs!

This process undoubtedly required a lot of effort and sacrifice.

To be honest, Gu Miao has always admired the "advanced" vision of his predecessors. In that era when even eating was a big problem, research on growing mushrooms actually started early.

In fact, this is very unreasonable.

Because at that time, Big Brother was still supporting the rabbit. Under the protection of Big Brother, it stands to reason that there is no need to worry about those who have something and those who do not.

But Rabbit believes in the truth that what belongs to others belongs to others. Having no sword and having a sword and not using it are completely two different concepts!

Probably because of this.

Under the premise that no one is optimistic, the fact that rabbits grow mushrooms is so shocking, right?

"Check more information."

While coughing, Gu Miao said to screenwriter Zhou Zhou: "If you can't find information online, ask someone to find out. If you can't find connections or connections, I'll ask for you..."

It’s actually not difficult to look up information.

After all, after so many years, some things that were highly confidential at the time have now been revealed.

It’s just that not many of the original group of people are still alive today. To be honest, it is difficult to find a person who experienced it and understand the actual situation of that year through his narrative.

not to mention.

People don't believe you when it comes to growing mushrooms, and they can't tell you if they're not sure whether your identity is reliable.

Gu Miao has a way around this.

He had discussed it with Director Wang, and there was no doubt that the officials were very supportive of the animation project "Those Things About That Rabbit That Year".

This kind of support gave him great convenience, at least in terms of checking information, and it saved him a lot of detours.

…

It is undoubtedly difficult to create animations based on precious historical data.

Because history is serious enough.

Unlike other animations where you can make things up as much as you like, Natu retained a lot of serious parts during production.

This also leads to...

Looking at the newly completed first version of the sample, Gu Miao couldn't help but frown and said: "The atmosphere is a bit too depressing and heavy!"

"I feel so too……"

Everyone nodded.

Gu Miao was not the only one to feel this way. Everyone who watched the sample video also felt extremely depressed.

The impact of blindly exaggerating suffering is that the entire animation becomes increasingly heavy and depressing, making people breathless.

"There still has to be light content."

"Appropriate lightness and comedy can be used as a spice to relieve this depressing and heavy viewing atmosphere." Gu Miao said thoughtfully.

"That's right!"

After clarifying this point, everyone found the target one after another.

After re-inserting some light-hearted and funny content into the just-finished sample, the second version of the sample was released.

"Yes, this is right."

After reading the second version of the sample, Gu Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s not that the first version was bad, but the emotion was so contagious that viewers with a little more sensitivity might not be able to watch it.

The second version has been optimized.

Although the general plot direction has not changed, the animation is not as depressing and heavy as before. There were both laughter and tears, touching and joy coexisting.

This was the effect that satisfied Gu Miao, and it was also the "that rabbit" he expected!

"Master! Master!"

While Gu Miao was busy admiring the second version of the sample, Guo Hongwei appeared out of nowhere and interrupted his thoughts.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Miao frowned and asked, "Didn't I tell you that I'm very busy recently, so don't disturb me if you have nothing to do?"

"Master, I have something to report!"

After trotting all the way to Gu Miao, Guo Hongwei, who was breathing heavily, gestured with his hands and said: "Huang Kun... Huang Kun is going to rebel!"

What the hell? rebel?

Gu Miao was stunned for a moment and couldn't help complaining: "He has such courage, please don't lie to me?"

"How dare I!"

"Master, believe me, Huang Kun is really going to rebel! Look at this, what he said this morning..."

Guo Hongwei took out his mobile phone and played an interview video for Gu Miao to watch.

In the picture, Huang Kun was being interviewed by a media. The reporter mentioned the animation "Fruit Strike" and asked a very heart-wrenching question.

"Director Huang, what do you think are the improvements of "Fruit Strike" compared to "Dragon Fighter"?"

"Don't compare me to Mr. Gu!"

Huang Kun waved his hand and retorted: "We are not on the same level. I dare say that "Fruit Attack" will definitely refresh everyone's view of [mecha animation]."

"Okay, I can hear that Director Huang is very disdainful of Director Gu. He is indeed the Director Huang who dares to tell the truth!"

After the reporter made a brief summary, without waiting for Huang Kun to explain, he said: "This ends the interview. Let's look forward to Director Huang's latest masterpiece!"

Gu Miao: "..."

Taken out of context, right?

This chapter says when will it be restored...
