My Animation Era

  Chapter 219 is just because I took one more look at you in the crowd... (please subscribe)

   Not to mention...

   Gu Miao and Ma Kui benefited a lot from the half-month observation experience of "high school students".

   They found a little bit.

  The difference between the current high school students and the previous high school students is that they hold smart phones, have better food and clothing, and have better body development.

  Other behaviors, especially emotional expressions, are actually exactly the same as those of high school students more than ten years ago.

   This is an amazing discovery!

  The times are developing, and technology is changing with each passing day. Gu Miao originally thought that the current high school students might be very different from the past, at least in terms of emotional expression, there will be obvious "generational" differences.

   But it turns out…

  No matter how the times change, the emotional performance of boys and girls entering puberty is the same, and there is no change because of this.

What?

  You said that the current students are all old drivers, and they know as much as adults?

   Gu Miao admitted this.

  Thanks to the development of the Internet, today's students do know a lot about driving. Sometimes listening to them talk about similar topics, Gu Miao felt that they were too "precocious".

   But this is not a variable.

  So what about the driving skills? Holding the hand of the girl he likes, isn't he blushing and yelling like a monkey in private?

  There are also amorous students.

   But that is only a minority after all. Most children are relatively restrained and shy in their emotional expression at this stage of adolescence.

  This is especially obvious for boys.

yes!

  At first, Gu Miao also thought that she was wrong, but later she realized that adolescent boys and girls are not at the same level in terms of emotional expression.

  Girls are generally more mature than boys.

   This is the conclusion that Gu Miao finally came to through observation.

  Boys at this stage will have a strong "expression desire", which can be described in the terms of the animal world, that is, more "courtship" behaviors.

   On the contrary, girls at this stage, their emotions are more restrained and unknown. If you don't know a girl very well, you won't be able to perceive her inner emotional fluctuations at all.

"Can!"

  After listening to Gu Miao's description, Jiang Keke agreed and said, "Boys and girls in puberty are indeed similar to what you see."

   "I didn't expect you to be a paparazzi for half a month, and you will really gain a lot!"

   "What paparazzi? Don't be embarrassed!"

  Gu Miao's forehead turned black and said, "I'm called a high school student behavior sentiment analysis survey, how can I call it a paparazzi?"

   "Let's do it, emotional investigation."

   "Then your investigation is over, can you hurry up and get down to business? Mr. Tan calls every day to ask about the progress of the animation production."

   "You tell him..."

  Gu Miao casually said: "The progress of the animation production is gratifying, and the finished product will be submitted soon. Call me every day if you have time, why not pay the final payment quickly."

  One hundred million!

   If it wasn't for this 100 million yuan, Gu Miao would not have given up the opportunity to direct the animation of "Pokémon" and come here to be some kind of pure love warrior.

   As a result, how long has it been?

  In addition to the 30 million start-up capital in the early stage, the subsequent 70 million final payment has not been seen yet! If I don't get the money for a day, Gu Miao always feels uneasy.

   "He said about the final payment."

  Jiang Keke explained with a smile: "He will pay the final payment only after seeing the samples."

   Samples?

  Gu Miao scratched her head and thought about it.

  The main feature film of the animation "The Moonlight Is Really Beautiful" has only 12 or 13 episodes, and even if you count the extra episodes, it only has 14 or 15 episodes. Based on an episode of 20 minutes, the whole project is about 300 minutes in total.

very short! really short.

   It can be said that this is the shortest work ever directed by Gu Miao, bar none.

  According to this standard, it doesn't seem to be a difficult task to produce a sample episode in advance for Mr. Tan to watch, and it will be resolved in a week at most.

  In this case, let's get started!

   After calling all the members of the animation production team to the conference room, Gu Miao wrote a line of words on the whiteboard: Chun and Shura.

  The title of Spring and Asura is derived from the collection of poems "Spring and Asura" by neon poet Kenji Miyazawa. After Gu Miao learned that this world also had this collection of poems, she chose to use the title without hesitation.

   This is really relevant.

   Kenji Miyazawa's "Sketch of Heart Image" poem mainly records those emotions and images that are difficult to describe rationally, but do exist.

   What a coincidence!

  The ignorant, vague and unspeakable emotions between boys and girls perfectly fit this kind of imagery, so there is no problem in pointing it out.

  The beginning of the story is March, when the warblers are flying and the grass is growing. After the winter vacation, the eve of the placement of arts and sciences in the first semester of senior high school.

   Tan An and two good friends were assigned to the same liberal arts class, but Ye Qian was separated from her friends.

   Strange classmates, strange classes, strange teachers...

  Thinking of these, Xiaoqian will inevitably feel a little nervous and uneasy. And at this time, the only existence that can make her feel at ease is the "sweet potato" mascot that runs through the entire plot.

  Gu Miao drew a prototype on the whiteboard.

   "Don't underestimate this prop, this sweet potato mascot will play a vital role throughout the play."

   "President Gu..."

  An original artist raised his hand and asked: "I have no problem with this mascot setting, but I think this art design is too sloppy?"

  Hearing the words, many people nodded.

   Just looking at the script planning, you may not feel that there is any problem. But Mr. Gu took a pen to draw on the whiteboard, and immediately felt something was wrong.

   This mascot…

  Why does it look so abstract?

   They said it was a sweet potato, but the more people looked at the pattern on the whiteboard, the more everyone thought, why does it look like an eggplant?

   "Ahem!"

  Clearly erasing the prototype she drew, Gu Miao explained without changing her face: "It doesn't matter what it looks like. If you really don't like it, you can just redesign it later."

   That's not the point Wow!

  Why did he talk for a long time, but no one cared what he said, but stared at the mascot he drew and pointed?

   That thing...

Ok!

  Sweet potatoes have to look like sweet potatoes.

   But that's not the point. Whether it's sweet potatoes or eggplants, it doesn't have any effect on the plot. Anyway, Xiaoqian smoothly integrated into the class under the accusation of an enthusiastic female classmate.

   She just didn't notice.

  In the corner of the back row by the window, a male student took an extra look at her from the crowd.

   This glance is eternity.

  Gu Miao doesn't want to admit that there is such a superstition as "destiny" or "marriage" in this world.

  But in the plot, there is indeed a "mysterious" power in the acquaintance and encounter between Tan An and Ye Qian. It was as if a pair of invisible hands were pushing them closer to each other.

  In the plot, Tan An went out for dinner with his parents, and Ye Qian also went out for dinner with his parents. The two chose the same restaurant and sat next to each other...

Is this a coincidence?

   Yes and no!

  For Tan An and Ye Qian, this meeting was a coincidence. But for the screenwriter or the animation production team, this is a "fate" meeting that has been arranged in advance.

  There is no dinner party, there will be other events! If there is no restaurant, there will be other places...

   Tips: The animation "Moonlight is Beautiful" is a work born under the influence of the theatrical version of "Tamako's Love Story"...I recommend book friends who haven't seen it, you can watch this theatrical version, it's very sweet!
