Chapter 442: Hesitation
"In this case... I understand." Shoji Uno said in a deep voice, "So, this part of the original content, is it sure to be screened before "Smelting Steel"? I understand the magazine's thinking, so I think there are two design plans. First, as mentioned by your magazine, the original content is placed before "Steel Refining". But this approach has two major drawbacks."
"What's the disadvantage?" Shang Haozhi asked.
"First of all, many readers will watch the animation because of "Smelting Steel", so there will be some people who don't know much about the characters." Shoji Uno said.
"There's no need to worry about that." Shen Xin waved her hand, "In the next few episodes, Yao Lin and Zhang Mei will be on stage, and Yao Lin's identity will probably be revealed at the end of the year or early next year, and Xingguo's background will also be revealed at that time." Introduce one or two."
In fact, if the current progress is followed, by the middle of next year, "Father" will meet with the Elric brothers. By then, a series of alchemy-related secrets will be revealed, and Yao Lin and Zhang Mei There will also be very important performances.
"If this is the case, it is barely ok. The second point is the creation of the script. No matter how fast you create it, it is still a process from scratch. In order to ensure the quality of the script, I suggest giving the script a little more time. If you make it first After we go back, we can start producing the animation of "Steel Refining", " Shoji Uno said seriously.
"But..."Smelting Steel" is divided into two seasons again." Shang Haozhi frowned.
In this way, "ComicFuture" still does not have a feature-length animation.
"We can continuously show "Smelting Steel" and the original comics together, without any free time in between. Of course, when it is played, it will be clearly marked that this is not the same comic. It's just that the original plot is sandwiched in the middle, which is very challenging. The quality of the script. If it is too far from the comics, it will affect the number of viewers of the subsequent screenings of "Smelting Steel."
Shang Haozhi frowned slightly, as if he had returned to the production of the original plot.
"That... I also have a question." Shen Xin crossed her fingers and stared at each other, "If you go back to District 11 and start making animations, when will it be released?"
"Well..." Shoji Uno was stunned, and thought for a moment, "It should be screened in the third quarter of next year at the earliest."
Shen Xin frowned and fell into deep thought.
The first conversation was fruitless.
After leaving the conference room, everyone had their own concerns.
Shang Haozhi was dissatisfied with Shoji Uno's splitting the animation into two,
Xi Muhan felt that he was underestimated.
Shen Xin was thinking about another matter, and he didn't even get out of the elevator until the elevator door opened, he was reminded by Yan Fei.
Shang Haozhi sent the three of them to the car, turned around and looked at Shen Xin, "What should I do? Reject?"
"No, I was thinking about something."
"Um?"
"When the animation is released, where will "Smelting Steel" be drawn? If it is divided into two seasons, how long is the first season appropriate, and how much content is appropriate for the original plot." Shen Xin expressed her thoughts.
"Then what do you mean..." Shang Haozhi was puzzled.
"Go back first and discuss it carefully." Shen Xin scratched her head, "Good things take time."
Wang Wenhong went to the fast food restaurant to buy hamburgers for everyone. Shen Xin and the others returned to the conference room first and sat down around the conference table.
"What do you mean by saying this?"
"What I mean is that what Supervisor Shuangji said makes sense." Shen Xin said, "Actually, even if I set the background and general framework, I'm still afraid of problems with the original. It's true that Xiaohan has written light novels, but The pace of those novels is rather slow, and when they get here, they have to speed up. Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of revisions to the script. Time... If you can have a few months to revise, the quality should be guaranteed."
"What about the follow-up?" Shang Haozhi continued to ask, "Even if there is an original plot in the middle, the progress of the animation will still exceed that of "Smelting Steel."
"That can't be helped." Shen Xin sighed, "I can only take one step at a time."
It is common for animation to catch up with manga, or even surpass manga.
Just like "One Piece" and "Naruto", isn't it the same?
"Otherwise, let's just stop for a while. Besides, Supervisor Shuang just said that it will be released in July at the earliest, which means that it may be released in October, right?"
"That's true." Shang Haozhi nodded.
Wang Wenhong opened the door and came in, brought everyone a hamburger and Coke, sat on one side by himself, and continued to listen to other people's discussions.
"The most difficult thing now is that Xiaohan has no experience in writing scripts."
"I can." Xi Muhan said stubbornly.
"Now is not the time to be brave." Shen Xin said patiently.
Xi Muhan lowered his head and gnawed on the hamburger, silently.
"Speaking of adapting the script, I thought of a person. Moreover, this person is very famous and talented in creation." Wang Wenhong interrupted suddenly.
Is there such a person?
Shen Xin glanced at Wang Wenhong, but saw him winking at her triumphantly, "Teacher Shen also knows this person."
"I know..." Shen Xin frowned slightly, recalling the people he knew, suddenly a figure flashed in his mind, and he said in surprise, "Su Han!"
"That's right. Although she just published a book, she was a screenwriter before." Wang Wenhong reminded.
Shen Xin had black lines all over her face, "She's too strong, she might disrupt the planned pace."
"You can ask her about some experience, so at least Xiaohan will feel more relaxed." Wang Wenhong looked at Xiaohan.
Although Xi Muhan didn't make a sound, it was not difficult to see from her eyes that she was a little dissatisfied.
She is also an author, and, like Su Han, she has novels that have sold more than one million copies. She didn't want to use Su Han's power unless it was absolutely necessary.
This is the pride of the literati.
"Let's put it on first? Besides, the animation has not yet decided how to operate it." Shen Xin looked back at Shang Haozhi.
"So, even if the original plot is placed in front of the whole animation, "Smelting Steel" will still be divided into two seasons, or even three seasons." Shang Haozhi sighed.
"If there are no accidents, it might be three seasons." Shen Xin sighed, feeling a little regretful in her heart.
Aunt Niu has been drawing the comic "Steel Refining" for 10 years, and it is still a monthly magazine, which gives Bones enough time to create "Steel Refining 03". After the funds return, they still have the ability and energy to create "Steel Refining Method ".
This kind of opportunity is hard to come by.
If there is another one, the first thing Shen Xin can think of is "Hunter x Hunter". However, this is also due to Fu Jian's long-term suspension of publication, resulting in no follow-up new plots.
"I still hope there will be no accidents." Shang Haozhi shook his head again and again.
He is a bit exhausted now, and he can't tolerate any changes.
