My Animation Era

"Mr. Gu, do we really want to adapt this... this kind of novel?"

At the internal meeting of Wanbao Animation, after listening to Mr. Gu's speech, Ma Kui asked hesitantly: "Isn't this not good? They are all about Perfect Alien, Wilderness and so on, let's make a fairy king. Has your son-in-law fallen too far?"

"Are there any other options?"

"Do you think I want to adapt this kind of thing? The problem is that our own website can only incubate this kind of IP. Even if it is pig food, you have to bite the bullet and eat it!"

Gu Miao rolled her eyes and said, "Besides, the title of the book is just vulgar and sounds earthy, but the content is actually pretty good..."

This is the truth!

With the mentality of testing the drug, Gu Miao went to Bibi Reading to take a look at this novel. Unexpectedly, she found that the writing was quite good. The title of the book was just a "titled" and the content was not that at all.

The most outrageous thing is that this is a relatively authentic "waste rises flow" fantasy online novel.

Yes, fantasy!

Do you think your son-in-law has an urban background? He is a son-in-law in the world of cultivation, so isn’t that ten levels higher than other urban sons-in-law?

So from this point of view, this novel is indeed worth paying attention to. The title of the book is the title of the book. People are popular because of their ability. Why doesn't Wanbao adapt it?

"I'll say it again."

Gu Miao cleared her throat and emphasized to the audience: "There will only be more and more animations adapted from online texts like this in the future. We must pay attention to them and adapt to the development trend of the times."

"Of course, originality is our specialty at Wanbao. Even in the era of online text adaptation, this skill cannot be lost. We must walk on two legs..."

Gu Miao has many ideas about originality.

Especially with the advent of the era of online text adaptation, how to accurately grasp the audience's preferences and create more popular original animation works needs to be explained to everyone.

But then again...

Since getting married, especially as Xiao Sensen has grown up, Gu Miao has indeed felt that her body has been hollowed out and she is getting worse and worse.

The ideas in his mind cannot be realized by himself alone. He must rely on helpers, and this helpers are obviously all the Wanbao gold medal producers here.

Huang Kun, Hou Bin, Guo Hongwei and others are all busy with projects. Director Wang is no longer the one to take the lead, and he can't count on it for the time being.

Apart from himself, Maguire is the only one left with few projects.

So after the meeting, Gu Miao left Ma Kui alone and called him to the office to ask him what he thought.

"I don't have any ideas."

"I will do whatever you say, Mr. Gu. If you ask me to go east, I will never look west."

It has to be said that if Ma Kui was a fool in ancient times, he would have been a chief eunuch, a eunuch in charge of the palm of his hand, and his ability to observe people's words, charm and bully superiors and subordinates was too strong.

"Stop flattering!"

"I want you to tell me if there is any subject or project that you are particularly interested in. If not, I will designate it for you."

"What subject are you interested in?"

When Ma Kui heard this, he touched his chin and thought: "Yes, there is one. I saw one in the archives before. It seems to be about a story about a monster and a human girl falling in love?"

Have it?

There were so many first drafts of plans hidden in the archives that Gu Miao couldn't remember for a while which one Ma Kui was talking about.

It wasn't until he mentioned "Four Souls Jade Fragments" that Gu Miao realized that he was talking about "InuYasha"!

"this is not OK……"

Gu Miao shook her head and said with regret: "This project was already scheduled when Xiwei came to the headquarters."

On the one hand, Nishio had warned him in advance that Ma Kui would not be able to interfere.

On the other hand, the background and settings of "Inuyasha" are actually full of neon features. Gu Miao didn't want to do any local adaptation, so leaving it to the neon division was the best choice.

"Then I have no idea."

After learning that "InuYasha" had been booked by Nishio, Ma Kui said regretfully: "Those are the subjects that interest me. If I had to choose, I really don't know what to choose."

"Do you like the Three Kingdoms?"

"Like it!"

Ma Kui said without thinking: "I loved watching Romance of the Three Kingdoms when I was a kid, whether it was a TV series or a novel."

"Okay, you can make an animated version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms!"

"Q version of Liu Guanzhang?"

"no!"

Seeing that Ma Kui had misunderstood, Gu Miao quickly corrected him: "It's not a spoof or a fan adaptation. What I'm talking about is an animation based on the original work of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"."

"Huh? But..."

"But this already exists! I remember that more than ten or twenty years ago, it seems that CCTV or someone had already made a version of the animated Three Kingdoms!"

Ma Kui frowned and said, "If we make another version, will anyone really like it?"

"You also said that it was a version many years ago! TV series are often remade into new versions, so can't animations have new versions?"

"Besides, it's not my intention to remake the animated Three Kingdoms, but the above." Gu Miao took out a document, handed it to Ma Kui and said, "Take a look, it's the document Director Wang sent me."

Ma Kui took it and took a look.

The content of the document is very long, and most of it is an excerpt of the spirit of some meetings. After excluding these parts, a series of contents on building a cultural power in the new era caught his attention.

"Simply put, Lao Wang hopes that we can explore more traditional culture and bring ancient stories to life in the new era."

Gu Miao smiled bitterly and said: "Isn't "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" a masterpiece that everyone loves? Of course, the new era will have a second spring, which is a new animated version."

"This arduous task must naturally be handed over to people with sufficient abilities. Looking across the country, is there any animation manufacturer that is more powerful than our Wanbao company?"

"I understand."

Ma Kui nodded and said, "This kind of mission should have additional benefits, right?"

"Yes, let's not talk about subsidies. The point is to film it and make sure it is broadcast on CCTV, not on the children's channel!"

Who will do it if you don’t give benefits?

There must be benefits, and huge benefits, so Gu Miao was willing to take this job and assign it to Ma Kui.

But then again.

Although the benefits are very tempting, this job is indeed difficult. Not everyone can do it well, and not everyone dares to challenge it.

You should do a good job. After all, it is an IP at the level of the four major classics. Do I still need to praise you?

If you do something bad, then you will be scolded by the people of the whole country! If the Four Great Classics are turned into a piece of shit, who will not be able to follow the trend and curse?

"received!"

Ma Kui said with high spirits: "I like this kind of challenging project, and it is also my favorite Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Why not take it?"

lack of ability?

Please! It doesn’t matter if Mr. Gu makes a few comments about him, what is your status and level, and how do you have the right to judge his lack of ability?

Who are you, the ratings champion, and who are you, the box office champion?

The animated version of Three Kingdoms is a Sino-Japanese co-production. Everyone should know this trivia...
