"There's no rush for the new comics, you guys can help me draw "Dragon and Tiger" first!"

Meng Shu smiled, he hadn't thought about the new comics yet! In fact, it may not be released for two months, "Light Sound Girl" has started construction, and there is also a new animation waiting to start in Tokyo, and after the two animations are stable, Manga Island has to start preparing for the carnival again - things are so busy that Meng Huo doesn't dare to think about new manga for the time being.

And let the two female assistants paint "Dragon and Tiger" first, so that they can also share the pressure of his work.

"Dragon and Tiger?"

Female cartoonists were happy for a while, "Dragon and Tiger" is a very good comic, what a pity to make it by hand, even more popular than the same period of "Ouran High School Male Public Relations Department", and there are many male and female readers, being able to take over this comic is a recognition of strength, but it is also very difficult.

"What a pity, teacher, can we draw it well?"

"The difficulty of this manga is too high......"

After the joy, the two female cartoonists were worried, and the exquisite picture of "Dragon and Tiger" naturally goes without saying, and the most difficult part of it is that since the beginning of the serialization, the comic has always been the perspective of the male and female protagonists. Previously, many people were worried that he would not be able to handle this problem well, but time has proved that he has always done a good job.

But this balance is difficult to imitate, and many cartoonists have secretly learned how to draw "Dragon and Tiger", but it is okay to draw one or two words, three or four words, and it is not ordinary difficulty to depict the story from a neutral perspective for a long time. Some comic academies in China have even set up special skill research societies to study this new style of painting, but it is impossible to wait for the skillful skills to come out in a year or two.

That's what the two female cartoonists are worried about. They can't handle the division of the two protagonists. Accustomed to shoujo manga, they can't help but lean towards the heroine's perspective. If it makes male readers unhappy, "Dragon and Tiger" will be completely ruined.

"It's okay, you can." Meng Shu said with a smile: "I will teach you slowly, and with my checks, there will be no problem with comics." ”

He used to paint "Dragon and Tiger" by himself, but this time he had two more assistants, which reduced the pressure, even if the assistants didn't understand it at first. After a month or two of training, they will definitely open up. And two assistants, one is responsible for one perspective, and there are advantages to working together.

"Why don't you pity the teacher's check? That's no problem......"

The cartoonists breathed a sigh of relief, and Meng Shu's words implied that his gatekeeping on "Dragon and Tiger" would be higher than that of "Urouran High School Male Public Relations Department", and that was no problem.

"Aren't we moving to Comic Island?" One of the assistants suddenly became nervous, and if it was closer cooperation, it would be much more difficult to continue with the current remote mode, and they might have to move to Manga Island. But their home is in Ninghai and they don't want to leave here.

"It's okay to go for a month or two, right?" Meng Huo saw through their worries. smiled: "You go to Manga Island and learn from me for a while, and you can come back if you are proficient in drawing." ”

He didn't mean to force them to stay in Suhua all the time. And this is not necessary, these two female assistants are very strong and have a good sense of responsibility, and Meng Shu is even more at ease with them than Teacher Tomato. Tomato: They are also dutiful assistants, but comparatively, Meng felt that the two female assistants needed less attention to maintain the quality of the comics.

The day after the signing session, Meng Shu said goodbye to Li Qin, and then met up with two assistants at the train station and took them to Comic Island.

The first thing Meng Huo did when he came back was to check the situation of the animation department, after a few days of practice, the artists in the animation department seemed to have become accustomed to the painting style of "Light Girl", and the characters drawn generally met the passing standards in Meng Shu's heart, and of course, more importantly, the image of the animation characters became agreed.

Although there are still some differences, the same character drawn by each artist is 80% similar, and after a few more days of running-in, when the similarity is improved, the animation can officially start. Of course, no matter how similar it is, it can't be exactly the same, and the adjustment after the official start of construction is the work of Meng Shu and Qin Ya.

Qin Ya's requirements are the strictest, and other painters only need to be as similar as possible and not out of shape, but Meng Yu's requirements for Qin Ya are exactly the same as his. For this reason, he left Qin Ya a stack of character settings before leaving Su Hua, each character Qin Ya needs to be drawn thousands of times, and the image from different perspectives must also be included.

She has to imprint the image of each character deeply in her mind, and she can't make any mistakes, and she does this very well, when Meng Shu comes back, Qin Ya can already draw the animated characters easily and naturally.

"I love this anime." She says that the anime doesn't require the same high quality as "5 Centimeters per Second", nor does it have many abstract witch characters like "Madoka Magi" - all in all, the art style of "Light Girl" suits her perfectly.

The only thing that makes Qin Ya unhappy is that this animation is a campus animation, but after listening to the plot, this unhappiness has long since disappeared. Although it is a campus animation, the animation does not highlight the boring study life on campus, but highlights club activities and dreams - which is very good in Qin Ya's eyes!

However, the first animation went very smoothly, but the second animation was slow to come out, and as "Detective Conan" came to an end, the rest of the Phoenix company was a little anxious.

"Detective Conan is the backbone of our company's animation, and it's not comparable to ordinary animation, and its end will reduce our company's influence in the animation industry by almost half." One day at noon, Alice found Meng Shu in the restaurant and told him about it.

As one of the three popular feature-length animations in China, the end of "Detective Conan" will also cause a huge loss of popularity to Phoenix Company in a short time. It will take half a year for it to open again, and in this half year, Phoenix's influence will undoubtedly be the lowest point in two years, and it is also the best time for other animation companies to catch up with Phoenix.

The management of Phoenix Company is worried that others will take advantage of the opportunity, so the two animations that Meng Shu fills this gap are particularly important. But the first animation he announced was "Light Sound Girl", a twelve-episode campus animation, although no one dared to say that this animation was bad, but from the perspective of length, story and even type, "Light Sound Girl" is obviously a niche work.

This kind of niche work cannot fill the hole of "Detective Conan", and Phoenix needs a large-scale production that can gather extremely popular animations to appear, so as to maintain its dominant position -- don't forget that "Pokemon" will also end in half a year, and Phoenix will not dare to waste a trace of popularity.

And the problems don't stop there......

"We cooperated with Suhua and Tokyo TV stations...... If there are no popular anime works, how can they support their animation ratings? The waiter in the restaurant brought the set meal ordered by Alice to the table, but she didn't rush to eat, but looked at Meng Shu and said, "It is said that Zhongxia Company is going to launch seven new animations in the past two months?" ”

"Yes."

Meng Shu nodded, he knew what Alice meant, now that Phoenix and Zhongxia have separated their camps, it is time to support the strength of the cooperative TV station. If Phoenix doesn't pull up the animation ratings of Su Hua and TV Tokyo earlier, and let Zhongxia Company have the upper hand, it will be even more dangerous in the future.

In terms of animation cooperation, Zhongxia Company has a great advantage in the number of animations, and although Phoenix Company has united some animation production companies and also linked them with two TV stations, the animations of these companies are good at all, and they can't have too high expectations.

If you want to increase the ratings of Su Hua and TV Tokyo, it has to be the work of Phoenix Company, and they have been cooperating for a month, and the first animation of Phoenix Company has not yet gone up, and the second animation has not even had a shadow, and it will not be long before the two TV stations should worry about their choice.

"Did someone in the company ask you to say these things, or did the TV station ask you to say them?" Meng Shu suddenly laughed, he felt that Alice definitely didn't mean to find him, everyone didn't want to disturb him during this time, and Alice obviously wouldn't take the initiative to break the ban.

Most of the words just now were persuaded by others to persuade Alice to speak, because she had the best relationship with Meng Shu.

"I can't hide it from you...... Alice smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "It's all ...... During this time, some people in the company called me, including Mr. Takashima in Tokyo, and he wanted me to push you. The two TV stations also asked me through other channels, and they were a little apprehensive about "Light Girl" and wanted to know the news of the second anime as soon as possible. ”

"And I also think it......" Alice glanced at Meng Shu: "You have been thinking about it for so long, this is not like your style!" Make a decision early.,If you don't want original animation.,It's also a good choice to adapt the previous manga.,You don't have to worry about animation at all, right? For example, "One Piece" ......"

"No, no...... That's an exaggeration! ”

Meng Huo hurriedly waved his hand, joking, can "One Piece" come out now? He can retire after that......

"What about "Burning Eye Xana" or "Fatestaynight"?"

Alice continued to mention yì.

"Forget it...... Xana doesn't have much right now, and I plan to leave it to Manga Island in the future. Meng Shu shook his head, and then said: "I am mainly thinking about several hard conditions for the new animation, one is a half-year work, the second is high popularity, and the third is also the most important...... The difficulty is better than easy. ”

He doesn't have time to stay in Tokyo all the time to oversee the production of new animation, so the difficulty of making the zuò should not be too high, and it is best to let Sakura maintain a certain degree of independent production ability.

"Easy difficulty?" Alice frowned slightly, and then her eyes lit up: "I thought of one!" How about Gundam? They've made Gundam anime before, but isn't the easiest and most proficient for them to be Gundam? And it's also a popular theme! ”

Two years after the end of "Gundam Seed", the Gundam series has flourished, and now has a large audience in China. (To be continued......)
