Chapter 160: A Busy Week

"Xiao Yu, will you come back for dinner at noon today?"

In the morning, Meng Shu put on his clothes and went out, and Li Qin asked in the courtyard.

"No, the company is busy."

Meng Shu turned his head to look, and Li Qin was squatting in the yard, planting vegetables in the shoveled soil.

After moving, Li Qin said that he wanted to use the yard to grow vegetables, but Meng Huo disagreed at first, other people's yards are all planted with flowers, and how cheesy it is to use them to grow vegetables.

But within a few days, he compromised, Li Qin didn't like to go out to play, she usually had to find something to do for her, just grow vegetables. However, Li Qin knew Meng Shu's thoughts, and also decided to plant some vegetables casually, and more land was used to grow flowers.

"Shen Jie, are you going today?"

Meng Shu looked at Li Qin's side, wearing a hat and Shen Jie with dirt in one hand, this girl was helping Li Qin.

"No, I couldn't do anything in the past." Shen Jie turned around and showed a smile: "I'll help my aunt plant something." ”

Shen Jie was very helpless, she couldn't help Meng Shu in Phoenix Company, and school would start in a few days, so it was better to take this opportunity to help Li Qin tidy up the yard.

has lived here for a while, and Li Qin has a good relationship with her. Shen Jie likes this family and the environment of the community, she feels that this is her second home, and wants to make it more beautiful.

If you plant flowers and some fruits in the yard, Meng Shu will definitely be very happy when they are ripe.

"I've helped him......

Shen Jie thought that she didn't mind being separated from Meng Shu, she wanted to provide Meng Shu with a warm environment, so that he could smell the fragrance of the flowers she planted when he slept.

She didn't say it explicitly. But Alice saw through her thoughts several times. Then teased her - "I didn't expect you to be a romantic." ”

Occasionally. Shen Jie will also ridicule each other, Alice is a big lady, of course she can't experience the romantic feelings of this kind of country girl. In fact, there were a few times when Alice wanted to help grow something, but she made a mess.

"Then I'm leaving."

Meng Shu nodded, turned around and walked out.

Outside the courtyard, a black sedan was waiting there, Meng Shu got into the car, and then left under the eyes of Li Qin and Shen Jie.

"I always feel like I've gained a lot...... He doesn't look like a kid anymore. ”

Li Qin watched the car leave. said with some emotion that her son has a special car every day, as if he has become an adult with a successful career, which makes her a little strange.

"Forget it, Auntie, let's plant the seeds quickly!"

Shen Jie smiled and urged Li Qin to start working.

Two days ago, when Meng Shu brought the comic setting of "Dream Eater" to Phoenix, the company decided to speed up the progress, and next week's "Dream Eater" will serialize the content of three episodes.

The editors of the editorial department and Meng Huo re-perfected the view of the world. Make it more realistic. The content of the story has not changed, Ye Xiong said that he can draw the content of the cartoonist as the main one. The story of Dream Eater is already quite perfect.

Therefore, Meng got an extra assistant, and three assistants helped him draw "Dream Eater".

Like the shoujo manga, the assistants are manga artists themselves, and they are very quick to pick up the manga. And the painting style of "Dream Eater" is more realistic, which also makes these cartoonists breathe a sigh of relief. If Meng Huo had those comic strip styles before, they would have to be troubled.

After the start of this serialization, the assistants shared most of the work, but "Dream Eater" is too important, the company must Meng Huo as the main painter, fortunately there is a computer post-production, plus the help of the editorial department, he can draw the original draft of one sentence in a day, this original draft will be saved by the computer, and then modified by the assistants until it is baked, there are not many places where Meng Huo needs time to paint.

The work of "Inuyasha" and "Detective Conan" is still going on at his house, and the assistants are getting used to it, and they can do it in three nights. Hua Meng and Mr. Tomato kept saying that the computer was an artifact, and regretted that they didn't use it in the first place.

That is to say, Meng got four comics - the situation is like this:

Every week, he spends one day painting "Dream Eater", several hours preparing "Ouran High School Male Public Relations Department", and three nights painting "Detective Conan" and "Inuyasha...... The total time is bearable.

This efficiency can be regarded as amazing, the biggest contributor is the computer drawing, after having a computer, Meng Shu only needs to draw a picture once to let others modify, and there is no need to redraw if he makes a mistake...... Saves too much time.

And after eight months of comic career, Meng Shu's drawing speed is far from being comparable to the beginning, if you don't have to think, he can finish the first draft of a plot of nearly twenty pages in an hour, and the first draft is saved and handed over to the assistant for background depiction, outlets, and post-modifications, without returning it to him, and the speed is not fast.

However, Meng Shu has not yet reached the point of shocking the world.

The comics are done, and the only thing left is the game production of "Fate/staynight", which is not like a comic, it is a very large project, and there are several stacks of text alone.

Meng Shu found five people and worked together to describe the plot and lines in words, which also took several days.

And the trouble is that "Fate/stay, night" needs a very large number of artists, its cg picture requires high-definition picture quality, and each picture requires several cartoonists to work hard to draw, and not only those cartoonists who have been cut in half are the most lull in the end, but even the cartoonists who have not yet debuted, or short cartoonists have been pulled to act as strong men.

She has assembled ten game designers who work with cartoonists. Every day at work, I can always see several cartoonists in the office drawing different characters and landscape wallpapers in groups, and seeing such a hot scene, ten game designers feel pressured.

In the face of such trust and pressure, one designer resigned within two days of coming, and the rest of the designers even stayed up late to develop the game framework of GALGAME in order to cooperate with the efforts of the cartoonists.

Meng Shu was the only one who did not allow He Qian to stay up late, and the designers refused her help when they knew that she had just recovered from a serious illness, but despite this, He Qian still called more and more people over, and the progress of the game was further accelerated.

"The final revisions to the lines and script have been completed, and if it goes well, Fate/staynight may not be released in a month."

When a few people took the report and reported it to Meng Shu. Meng Shu was surprised and delighted.

He is very satisfied with this speed, but too fast is not necessarily a good thing, the creation of music and the selection of voice actors have trouble again, every GALGAME evaluation is closely related to its music dubbing, Meng Yu doesn't want to make a broken color, of course he has to do it himself.

It was not difficult to compose the music, and he wrote it down in one night, and in the face of the surprise on the faces of the company's employees, Meng Shu made this explanation - "I planned this story a long time ago, and so did the song." ”

This explanation has been understood by others, "Fate/staynight" has a deep background setting and worldly view, and it will take a long time for others to understand it when they look at the material.

Xu Jing looked at the initial data setting, and even sighed that this is a philosophical work.

Although this remark can't be taken seriously, it at least proves that "Fate/staynight" does have the qualifications of its own system, such a work, normal people will think that it is a story that Meng Huo planned a long time ago, and it is impossible to come out casually.

The game music was successfully recognized, but there were too many of these music, and one or two bands couldn't catch up with the production time, so Phoenix had to send out invitations, and the funding increased by hundreds of thousands, and the soundtrack became the biggest production cost of the game.

As for the voice actor, Meng Huo first selected the animation voice actor from "Pokemon", Shen Jie also participated, her voice change was excellent, Meng Huo gave her two completely different roles, one is Rin Tosaka, the other is Saber, I didn't expect the audition to pass all at one time.

However, the voice actors of "Pokemon" did not all pass, and there were still a few vacancies left after the last, Meng Shu asked Alice and Li Hua to be responsible for the search, as long as they could be found within three weeks, "Fate/staynight" could be completed on schedule.

After taking a break from the soundtrack and voice actor, Meng Shu turned to the animation production department, and instructed Zhong Yue to produce the animation of "Fate/staynight", of course, the game can't lack animation, although it is just a short animation similar to the opening and ending credits, but their production cost is not small, and the requirements are very high.

The animation production department didn't dare to slack off, "Pokemon" made too much money, and the company didn't care about this cost.

Inviting professional band soundtracks, short animations, and CG drawings are the main costs of game production, and at the last calculation, it exceeded 1 million yuan, but the number exceeded was not large, and it did not have much impact.

Meng was glad that the voice actors in this world were cheap and did not cause a lot of labor costs, and if the cost of voice actors rose a little more, the production cost of "Fate/staynight" would be exceeded.

But in the end, everything went well. During this period, Meng Shu kept leaking some things to the outside world, raising the expectations of others for new comics and games to the highest.

A busy week soon came to an end, and "Urouran High School Male Public Relations Department" and "Dream Eater" had ended, and the final quality of these two comics that came out under the nose of the editorial department made Meng Shu feel applauded.

The two manga were sent to the publishing house for publication, and the number of comics serialized in this week's "Weekly Shonen" and "Weekly Shoujo" has dropped significantly, but the cost of the magazine has also decreased, so we can expect a reaction from the market.

On Tuesday, March 10, the day before the release of "Weekly Girl", this is also the last day of coverage for Ninghai No. 1 Middle School.

Meng Huo took time out of the morning to go to school to go through the formalities, Shen Jie also sorted out her small suitcase, and after breakfast, she stood outside Meng Huo's house and looked back at this quiet courtyard.

"See you again......"

With a hint of melancholy, Shen Jie and Meng Shu got into the car, and she wanted to go back to the closed place of the school to stay.

Shen Jie was very reluctant to leave Meng Shu. (To be continued......)
