My Animation Era

The idea of ​​turning the animated "The Adventures of Lolo" into a game is actually not particularly bold.

Because in the plot, the world of robots is originally a game, and Luoluo and Jingjing, who are the kings of robots, are also players.

only……

The original "The Adventures of Lolo" only had animations and no related derivative games, so many people ignored this.

Gu Miao wants to make it into a game.

On the one hand, he feels that "The Adventures of Lolo" will be quite fun when it is made into a game, after all, the setting is very interesting.

On the other hand, this can be regarded as a dream come true for his childhood self.

When he was watching the animation "The Adventures of Lolo" when he was a child, he especially wanted to play the computer game "King of Robots".

But it's a pity.

At that time, he neither had a computer nor could he find the game "King of Robots" in an Internet cafe.

It doesn't cost much anyway. Even if no one plays the game, and it just fulfills a childhood dream, Gu Miao still thinks it's worth it.

Just a quick mention.

In fact, in the original "The Adventures of Lolo" animation, through the explanation of "Lolo", the protagonist and a senior game player, the basic settings and gameplay of the game "King of Robots" are already very transparent.

The theme is real-time strategy!

The background is a race for hegemony between the motorcycle tribe and the beast tribe. Players each control one side and destroy the other as the winning condition.

In this general context, there are some "hero" units in both the motorcycle clan and the beast clan, such as Human Torch, Vanguard, Tyrannosaurus God, and Tiger King, characters with "nirvana".

Some heroic units can also cooperate with other heroic units to perform powerful "joint attack stunts".

These settings are reflected in the animation plot. Even if the animation plot does not mention it, the player Lolo will tell the audience through lines.

Gu Miao didn't hide anything.

After instructing Xiao Lin to make a game according to the settings of the "The Adventures of Lolo" animation, he immediately gave him a copy of the animation plan and storyboard.

at the same time.

He also told Xiaolin that no matter what problems he encounters during the production of the game, he can come to the "The Adventures of Lolo" animation production team to talk to him at any time to solve problems.

If even he can't solve it, then let the game production team and animation production team participate together, and everyone can discuss it.

After all, they complement each other.

The better gameplay and ideas in the game can be applied to the animation plot, and the better ideas and plots of the animation plot can also be integrated into the game play.

…

Late autumn has arrived.

The weather in Jiangchuan is still as sultry as ever, with temperatures still above 28 degrees Celsius at noon and afternoon.

Hou Bin hates this season.

Because at this time, he didn't know what clothes to wear.

Dress coolly, as it can feel cold in the morning and evening, and you can easily catch a cold if the air conditioner is on. Dress a little thicker, and you have to take off your clothes at noon and afternoon, otherwise it will be too hot.

At this point, Hou Bin suddenly felt envious of Mr. Gu, an old married man, and wondered if he had any special powers?

Why can he wear a short-sleeved T-shirt from March to October without changing it?

"Personal physical issues!"

Regarding Hou Bin's doubts, Gu Miao explained calmly: "I am more cold-tolerant. As long as the temperature is below zero, I can wear short-sleeved shorts on the street."

"I don't understand..."

Hou Bin shook his head, saying that he didn't understand why Mr. Gu was so special even though he was also a human being.

But then again.

Although Mr. Gu is not afraid of cold, he is extremely afraid of heat. In the midsummer of June and July, walking out of the air-conditioned room feels like half of his life is gone.

At this point, Hou Bin feels that he is still much better than Mr. Gu, at least he does not have such severe "air conditioning dependence".

certainly!

It would be great if his physique could be combined with Mr. Gu's and transformed into a Superman who is neither afraid of cold nor hot...

After exchanging a few pleasantries on the topic of the weather, Hou Bin led the visiting Mr. Gu to the office and talked about the animation "Master Chef Little Fugui" with a hint of melancholy.

Putting aside animations such as "The Adventures of Uncle Long" and "The Lion King", "Master Chef Little Fugui" should be Wanbao's first domestic original TV animation with an investment of over 100 million.

Really over 100 million levels!

Although the production budget for the first season of "The Adventures of Uncle Long" was over 100 million, it was shared by Mr. Tan, Mr. Xiao Xiong and Uncle Long, and Gu Miao also enriched himself. Who knows how much corruption was committed.

Calculated based on exchange rates, the production cost of "The Lion King" exceeded 100 million, and it was in the hundreds of millions, but it was a movie, and it was a movie produced according to Hollywood blockbuster standards.

Seriously speaking, the production budget of "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" is over 100 million, that is a real break of 100 million. Hou Bin did not commit corruption and did not dare to commit corruption. He spent all his money wisely.

But even so...

With Wanbao's top-end production budget, the progress of animation production still made him feel melancholy and troubled.

It's not a matter of speed.

First of all, the animation plan is determined to have more than 100 feature episodes, and the construction period is also very generous, so there is no problem of worrying about slow progress.

Hou Bin's troubles mainly come from his exploration and confusion about folk customs, folk customs, and traditional folk food culture.

The story takes place in the late Qing Dynasty.

If you count on your fingers, this has happened for hundreds of years. It is particularly difficult to collect information on folk customs from hundreds of years ago.

When talking about this, Hou Bin also used "clothing" as an example.

He said that the animation production team specially collected a batch of old photos and old archives in order to determine how the character of Lord K would wear official uniforms under specific circumstances.

It turned out to be a joke.

Lord K is a powerful minister, the head of a group of ministers, and his status in the court can be said to be one person below ten thousand people.

So what kind of official uniform should such a powerful minister wear? The animation production team followed the file records and gave him a costume said to be that of a "Prince Regent".

It was only after it was made that someone pointed out that this was not a formal official uniform, but a set of ceremonial attire.

Being uneducated is terrible.

Hou Bin, who almost asked Master K to wander around in sacrificial robes, learned a lesson from this and became more attentive when collecting information and supporting evidence, and was more meticulous about details.

"It doesn't matter!"

"After all, we are just making animations, not documentaries. It is understandable that such mistakes will occur. Just correct them in time."

Gu Miao smiled and explained: "The root of your troubles is that you pursue perfection in details too much!"

This won't work.

It is certainly a good thing to achieve the ultimate perfection in details, but human energy and knowledge are limited, as long as there are no problems in the general direction.

Hou Bin is at the top of his game.

Being too fussy about details actually delays the main business. This is a long-form cartoon that lasts for more than 100 episodes and thousands of minutes. How can every shot and detail be controlled to the extreme?
