My Animation Era

New year, new start.

As early as a few months ago, Penguin officially announced its animation film and television adaptation plans for many of its "Internet IPs".

Gu Miao originally thought that the anime adaptation would be the first to come. After all, it would be relatively easier to adapt an online text into an animated comic than a film or television drama.

But no one expected it.

In the new year, Penguin’s first online IP adaptation is not an animation or a comic, but a live-action costume fantasy TV series.

"Perfect Alien"!

This is a big IP, with a large number of original fans and cloud readers. Even a complete stranger like Gu Miao, who doesn't like to read fantasy online novels, knows the name of this novel.

Are you going to do a live-action drama?

What's the difference between this and a brave man who just leaves the novice village and immediately challenges the ultimate devil?

"The steps are a bit big..."

After taking a look at the starring cast, Gu Miao expressed that she was not optimistic about the prospects of this drama.

Fantasy novels, especially fantasy online novels with a huge background setting like "Perfect Alien", are really not that easy to capture the essence of.

Anime is more suitable.

This is not that Gu Miao belittles the feasibility of film and television adaptation of fantasy fairy novels. He simply feels that it is very difficult to adapt such works with a huge world view and background setting system into film and television.

It would be easier to say if it were a low-level, micro-immortal world like "Flower Thousand Bones" and "Nirvana in Fire".

But this is Gaowu...

When strong men fight, they will cry out and the universe will be annihilated. So how do you show this effect?

"That's right!"

Huang Kun agreed: "The scenes that can be described in words may not be captured by cameras."

This is the embarrassing thing about the adaptation of online articles. The original author wrote well and passionately, but it happened to be too abstract. As a result, in the process of adapting it to film and television, the director and screenwriter did not know how to transform the words into visual patterns.

Not only online novels, but also many literary works published in paper will encounter the same difficulties when adapting them.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, when adapting online novels, especially online novels such as fantasy and fairy tales, it is best not to adapt them to film and television, and just focus on animation and games.

"Leave them alone."

Gu Miao waved her hand and said, "It's not too late for you to tell me when they come up with the animation or comics of "Perfect Alien World"."

Live-action movies and TV shows, even dogs won’t watch!

Besides, Wanbao has not been involved in the field of live-action film and television dramas. Penguin's "Perfect World" TV series has little impact on Gu Miao.

He only focuses on anime works.

If it were the animation or manga of "Perfect Alien", then he would definitely cheer up and pay attention to the situation of this work at all times.

Forget about live-action dramas.

Even if it were as popular as the TV series "The Three-Body Problem", it would have nothing to do with him. As a toy dealer engaged in animation, he had no reason to worry about live-action TV series.

But just because he doesn't worry about it and doesn't take the "Perfect World" live-action drama seriously doesn't mean that others think the same way.

Haitian Film and Television.

As the most famous film and television industry giant in China who has produced many popular TV series, they attach great importance to "Perfect World".

On the one hand, this emphasis is to give Penguin face, and on the other hand, it is because they also have a live-action film and television series that will be broadcast soon.

…

"Prince of Tennis" is getting a live-action version!

This news jointly announced by Haitian Film and Television and Wanbao Animation shocked countless passers-by and netizens.

What the hell?

Is the "Prince of Tennis" you're talking about the cartoon that has magical tennis skills such as flawless clothes and flying swallows returning to their nests? How do you make a live-action version of this?

Not only netizens are curious, Wanbao, as the copyright holder, is also curious and wants to know how Haitian Film and Television plans to film such magical skills as "Seamless Clothes", "Flying Swallows Returning to their Nests", and "Snake Ball".

"How would I know?"

Faced with Mr. Gu's inquiry, Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "They want to buy the license and the price is quite high. Can I not sell it?"

"As for how they plan to make a live-action version after buying the copyright, I don't know..."

Good guy!

When Gu Miao heard this, she immediately became interested and said: "I remember that Haitian purchased the license for live-action dramas from us. In addition to "The Prince of Tennis", there is also "Detective Conan", right?"

"Yes, and Conan!"

"Has Conan been filmed yet?" Gu Miao was not that interested in the live-action version of Prince of Tennis. Instead, she was full of curiosity about the live-action version of Conan.

"They're probably filming now!"

"I don't know the specific situation. I have to call and ask to find out." Lao Zhang explained to him, "I only know that the live-action version of "Prince of Tennis" should be completed."

"I don't know this or that. What use do I need from you as the vice president?"

Gu Miao cursed, feeling that it was better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself, so she simply took out her mobile phone and dialed the person in charge of Haitian Film and Television.

Learned by asking around.

It turns out that the live-action version of "The Prince of Tennis" only has more than 30 episodes, and the plot only covers the period from the qualifiers to the Jiangchuan Municipal Competition, and even the East China Competition was not filmed.

That’s why it was completed so quickly.

As for the leading actors, they are all well-known young and capable actors in the industry, and they focus on a "youthful style".

The live-action drama of "Detective Conan" is quite troublesome. According to the person in charge of Haitian Film and Television, this drama encountered many difficulties during the filming process. The young actor who will play the protagonist "Conan" has not been finalized yet.

"So what's going on with you guys? Are you going to collide with Penguin's "Perfect World" TV series?"

"Maybe!"

Hai Tian was relatively calm, probably mentally prepared, and said to his good friend Gu Miao: "If we can't avoid it, we can only have a head-on encounter."

Regardless of winning or losing, at least face cannot be lost.

Penguin is an Internet social giant? So what! Who isn’t a giant anymore? No matter how bad Haitian is, he is still considered a number one figure in the film and television industry, and there is no way he is afraid of Penguin.

"Then come on!"

Gu Miao, who didn't take it too seriously when watching the excitement, encouraged the other party with a kind of mentality, and asked about the filming method of the tennis skills in "The Prince of Tennis".

"Special effects, I added special effects!"

"With just a flick of the ball, the tennis ball will glow, and it can also stop and turn in the air. Isn't it amazing?"

"It's... quite awesome!"

Gu Miao looked a little disappointed.

He thought that when Haitian filmed these skills, he used slow-motion real shots!

I didn’t expect to use CG special effects.

This is meaningless...

After all, the special effects battle all depends on whose special effects are more powerful and who has the brighter glare. There is no technical content at all.

Those who know it are playing tennis, but those who don't know may think that this is where the supreme king of the restricted area VS the emperor of the world came from. The two extremely strong men fought so hard that the great world was wiped out.
