040 Animation
Umejin Taichen?
Qin Han was about to put a piece of tuna dipped in radish mud into his mouth, but after hearing the name, he became petrified for a while before continuing to eat.
I didn't expect that I could meet the big shots of my previous life even after having a meal.
Is this because this is the Nakano District where animation practitioners gather?
In his previous life, Umejin Taishen was an animation supervisor with very low production and extremely high status among niche groups.
He started with the responsibility of grassroots animation and was promoted step by step, and has worked as an original artist, painting supervisor, character design, storyboard performance and other work. The animations he participated in, from "Mobile Suit Gundam Z" to "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" to "White Box", are countless.
However, as an animation supervisor, he has not many works, and what is truly well-known are the three R18 animations called the "Meitzin Taishen Trilogy".
The reason why Umejin Taichen is praised by the stutterers is that his R18 animation is not attracted by simple functional stimulation.
The "Meijin Taechen Trilogy" has many glitters that make people talk about from world setting to character creation, from story narration to action scenes.
Rather than treating it as a fan who just has a disagreement, it is better to treat it as a niche cult classic similar to Hollywood cult movies.
However, in this parallel world, Mei Jin Taichen, who was drinking and talking with Qin and Han Dynasties, has not yet produced his own trilogy.
After a happy chat, Mei Jin Taichen suddenly said earnestly: "Teacher Qin Han, I really like your "Daily Safe Milk". Are you willing to animation this work? If you want, please leave it to me!"
What rhythm is this?
Animation?
Someone is willing to animation a fan book with only forty pages?
It's simply incredible!
In his previous life, Mr. Himemura's fan work was indeed an animation called "Monday's Plump". But a few years after the work was released, it experienced several CM fan exhibitions.
And it's just online broadcast.
At this time, an uncle who was round and looked like a healthy country farmer, came to Qin Han: "Teacher Qin Han, our madhouse is indeed interested in animation of your work. Today's party will be discussed informally. If you want, let's talk further...ah, I almost forgot to introduce myself."
The uncle handed over a business card with both hands: "My name is Masao Maruyama."
Masao Maruyama once worked in the Bug Production and Animation Company of Osamu Tezuka, and later founded Madhouse, an orange legendary animation producer.
After Umetsu Taichen's impact, Qin Han's psychological quality has become much stronger now, and there has not caused much trouble in his heart. After all, he is a man who studied under Hojoji, Inoue Yuhiko and others are good friends, and he has seen many things through many battles.
After Qin Han took over the business card, Masao Maruyama said again: "Teacher Qin Han, Umetsu is very sincere. He dreamed of serving as animation supervisor and producing his own animation like raising children. Before attending the party today, he quietly told me that if this failure this time, in order to be an animation supervisor, he would do whatever he could to do even if he went to do R18 animation!"
Qin and Han suddenly became a little confused.
If I agree to the request for animation, the butterfly effect caused the "Meitin Taichen Trilogy" to not be born, wouldn't it be a pity? For gentlemen all over the world, I can be considered a sinner.
But then I thought about it, why did I have so much trouble? If I do anything in my past life as a reference sample, I would be restricted, what's the point?
After thinking about this section, Qin Han readily agreed: "Okay, it is of course a good thing that your works can move on TV and be given sound and color."
"Haha, Teacher Qin Han, when the animation production officially begins, I will definitely write a recommendation article for you!" Yonezawa Kazuhiro also came over.
If this well-known critic helps promote it, his popularity will definitely rise to a higher level.
After the matter was settled, the few people relaxed, drinking and eating, chatting around the world.
Qin and Han also learned a lot of knowledge and interesting stories about the animation industry.
Nowadays, riding on the east wind of the economy, the second-dimensional entertainment industry is developing rapidly, and various investment hot money has also poured in. More and more people want to make money by making cartoons, and more and more schedules for TV stations to broadcast animations.
In this way, major animation production companies as content producers are increasingly difficult to satisfy the extremely inflated market.
Especially as a creative industry, good animation ideas are always in short supply.
Since the originality is insufficient, then buy the copyright and change it.
Various novels, comics, and games are the focus of animation adaptations.
This industry situation is the same as the trend of adapting online novels in the domestic film and television industry in China in the past.
It is precisely because of such market demand that although the fan of Qin and Han Dynasty was published, it was attracted by his recent topicality, as well as his huge spread on the Internet and good reputation.
Not long ago, TBS, one of the five major private TV stations in Japan, came to madhouse to find producer Masao Maruyama and prepare to take the lead in producing an animation in order to fill the gap in late-night animation programs.
Because the main purpose of this animation is to fill the gaps during the schedule and the secondary is to improve the ratings, TBS decided to produce it, which is just a short animation that often takes 4-6 minutes.
Because watching an animation episode is enough to make a bowl of instant noodles, this kind of animation is also called instant noodles.
If it weren't for the production of instant noodles that was not very invested, it wouldn't have been to Qin Han.
"Just let's have instant noodles. It is unprecedented for fan to be animated, so there is no need to force too much. In the future, my comics will definitely become a truly popular animation played in the prime time!" Qin Han thought.
In order to reduce risks, many investors are usually invited to make cartoons in Japan. This is how the audience sees a huge list of "production committees" behind the animation OP.
Some of Tezuka Osamu Osamu owed 350 million yuan in animation and brought her sister-in-law..., cough cough, it is the lesson of having to make a living and drawing comics to pay off debts. There are still a few people who dare to take big risks.
This time, the lead of the animation is TBS, but as the producer, Masao Maruyama has the right and obligation to attract sponsors.
The project has just started, and the only sponsor that has been negotiated is Tiger's Cave.
After all, it is the first time that fan works have been animated for the first time. If the works are popular, it will be a great thing for the entire fan world. As the largest fan seller in Japan, Tiger's Cave will naturally benefit from it, so it is very positive.
Of course, Qin Han hopes to attract more sponsors, so that his authorization fee can be higher.
