Chapter 275: Huge Expenses

A week after returning to the Far East, Sakura Animation and Phoenix's remote mechanism was built.

The production of "Gundam Seed" unfolded, and the initial thing was to determine the character design and body design, which were fully led by Meng Shu, but he did not copy the original design.

Although the original "Gundam Seed" is popular, the era has been a little long, so this time Meng Huo is very bold to beautify the details, since it is an idol film, the more beautiful it is, the more attractive it is.

On the basis of retaining the original work, he basically beautified each character for three points, and after handing over the original design, all the artists were going to faint.

"President, these settings are too powerful!"

"No, the difficulty is too high, the body and the characters are drawn in such detail, it is difficult for us to cooperate!"

Originally, the Gundam in the Gundam animation was a very difficult thing to draw, requiring very fine details and computer assistance, and now the characters and graphics are so demanding, Meng Shu's original design makes many artists feel tricky.

"What do you think I've been preparing for half a year?"

Meng Shu snorted coldly, the average animation will come out in a few months, but the time of "Gundam Seed" is expected to be long, and this is because he is demanding.

Meng Shu doesn't want to follow a routine casually, since he wants to do it, he has to turn the animation into a high-quality product.

"I'll give you two weeks to get acquainted with the style." He said to all the painters: "You must cooperate well during this time and meet my requirements, otherwise you will be fired by me!" ”

This sentence made the painters' faces pale, but after hitting the stick. Meng Shu also gave carrots.

"You just have to do your best, as long as you can draw well. It's okay to slow down in the future, I will recruit more artists to win by quantity. ”

"And there is a lot of money for the production of this animation...... "He stretched out a finger and said, "100 million Huaxia coins can allow you to fully display your talents." ”

100 million Huaxia coins, hearing this number, all the painters were stunned.

There has never been such a large production budget in the history of Chinese animation, and this figure means that the production cost of "Gundam SEED" per episode is as high as several million.

Millions of dollars per episode......

"Oh oh oh oh oh~~"

"It's against the sky!"

The news is out. Whether it is Ninghai or the animation department of the extreme east, the artists who learned of the funding are very excited, the production budget of "Pokemon" is 400,000 episodes, and "Gundam Seed" has increased several times at once.

"What is the identity of the president, he is playing so big!"

Many people in Sakura Animation are curious, Meng Huo's identity has not been announced internally, but the cooperation with Phoenix has made some people suspicious.

But Meng was dressed up to work every day. The image has changed greatly, and the information is also very clear, and this suspicion has not become bigger.

"But it's great, with so much money, it seems that the president wants to make this animation into a movie-level quality!"

"Do you say, is this a loss of death?"

Someone was excited. Some people were nervous, but no matter what, the funding greatly boosted the morale of Sakura Animation.

The company's total assets are less than half of the cost of an anime, and Takashima Takashima was excited to faint when she heard it.

But at the same time, this decision also shook Phoenix for a while.

Xu Jing personally called to ask why Meng Shu made this decision. The higher the cost, the greater the pressure, isn't Meng Huo's approach risky?

"Don't worry. It will make money. ”

Meng Shu comforted Xu Jing like this, he believed that "Gundam Seed" would not lose anywhere, but in fact, it didn't matter if it was lost, the place where "Gundam Seed" made money was not played.

Now that the Chinese animation industry is gradually maturing, the peripherals can start to sell, Meng Huo plans to use this animation to establish the king status of Gundam in one fell swoop, so that in the future, what kind of models, peripherals, or something, the value will definitely be more than 100 million.

If he is preempted by others, he will definitely regret it later.

"Alright then......"

Xu Jing can only accept that this is the benefit of major shareholders. Meng Shu took the initiative, Xu Jing just built it, before the change, Meng Shu wanted to take 100 million to make animation, Xu Jing would definitely not agree.

The huge budget was decided, and the rest was to officially start construction.

The artists began to hone their skills with Meng Huo's original design, and the animation departments of the two places also began to practice remote cooperation on the system, and moved forward in an orderly manner.

During this period, Meng Shu did not interfere in specific affairs.

He wrote the script of the plot at home, and also made the music score, and in order not to be suspicious, all the songs were anonymous. The designer of the figure and the body also did not announce it to the people below, and the average employee did not know that he had made these things.

This is also an act that can't be helped, once it is known that all of these are from Meng Shu's hands, as long as he is not a fool, he will be associated with He Xi.

And the news that passed on to the ears of ordinary employees must not be hidden from Mantian, and the funds for "Gundam SEED" were quickly leaked this time, but it did not arouse suspicion.

"100 million Huaxia coins of animation production funds, tsk...... That rich guy is really generous......"

After Suzuki Ming heard the news, he despised Meng Huo even more. Now which animation company is not saving costs to make money, 100 million funds are used, and it is simply impossible to get benefits.

"Sure enough, it's just a loser, and he actually treats animation as a movie."

Akira Suzuki disdains it, the box office of the movie is expensive, but the animation does not have the income of the movie box office.

At this time, the Gundam animation in Mantendo started earlier than "Gundam SEED", and the name was "The Strongest Mobile Suit", and publicity was started all over the Far East.

Eiji Takashima was a little nervous, and he asked Meng if he wanted to do publicity, but Meng Huo refused.

"There's no need, I'll talk about it later."

The animation has not been skimmed yet, what is he going to promote, the animation of Mantian will definitely be broadcast first, so that it can explore the market and open the way for "Gundam SEED".

And Meng Huo has another thing that is most important - the choice of voice actors. As an idol drama, "Gundam SEED" has high requirements for all kinds of products, and the same is true for the sound quality.

There are so many high-quality voice actors in the Far East?

Meng Yu remembered the voice actors he was familiar with in his previous life, but he searched for a few days but found nothing: perhaps because of the difference in the history of the Far East, he didn't find those people.

However, the teaching of some regions and ethnic groups in China is bilingual, and the same is true in the Far East, where the TV programs are in the Extreme Oriental dialect and pure Chinese, which will not affect anyone to watch.

"Should I let those voice actors from Ninghai do the animation?"

Meng Huo was in trouble, and finally did an animation in the Far East, and he wanted to try to make a bilingual version of "Gundam Seed", maybe it would have a different effect - the Far East dialect was very strong in the expression of anime songs, and the Chinese language was inferior.

After all, there are very few freaks like Shen Jie......

ps: There is one more at eleven o'clock
