Chapter 114

Time does not wait, Meng Huo began to prepare "pet elf.".

Although he did it once, Meng Huo was more fully prepared this time. He spent half of the day on it, leading a bad life with tomato and Huameng.

The two cartoonists had to come to work in the afternoon and could not go home until midnight. In order to reduce the time, Meng Huo also overlapped the work of "Detective Conan" and "Inuyasha", and often three people worked together to rush the manuscript.

This kind of high-intensity work has caused a lot of burden to tomato and Huameng teachers, but it's strange that they don't have any complaints and even seem very happy.

Meng Huo was very strange about this phenomenon, but Li Qin made fun of him when she heard his inquiry.

"You're still young. You'll understand when you grow up."

Her words made Meng Huo even more strange. What did he not understand? He observed for a few days, and then understood what Li Qin said. Tomato and Huameng always peep at each other in their work. They look at each other!

"What do you think of my work as?"

Meng Huo couldn't laugh or cry. He always thought that Hua Meng had a husband, so he didn't think about that. After knowing the truth, Meng Huo finds that there is always a wonderful atmosphere in his study. Tomato and Huameng sit on both sides and aim at each other. He is uncomfortable sitting in the middle.

However, this situation also brings a benefit. No matter how heavy the task Meng Huo ordered, these two people would willingly complete it. Even in order to stay a little longer, they proposed to work overtime several times.

Meng Huo is so happy.

In January, Shen Jie called to see him. Meng Huo refused several times and suddenly realized that the child was homesick again.

He felt that Shen Jie was pitiful, but he couldn't spare time, so he asked Li Qin to take some fruit to see Shen Jie.

Results that night, Shen Jie sent a text message scolding: "who is homesick, you are homesick!"

She ignored Meng Huo for several days.

Meng Huo felt that she didn't care. He concentrated on painting, and the original drawing of "pet elf" came to an end.

In his memory, many people questioned that the animation of "pet elf" was not good enough, but Meng Huo did not think that the early animation of "pet elf" was very good and the story was interesting. This animation comes out one after another, and the style changes in the later stage make people feel boring.

Meng Huo is going to make the first one this time. The overall plot is not much different from the original. It is worth mentioning that he renovated some characters.

The original "pet elf" was launched in the 1990s, and the style of the first figure painting can not be separated from the times. But that style of painting is obviously not suitable for Meng Huo's current style, and he did not make much change, so he beautified it a little bit.

For example, the protagonist Xiaozhi, Meng Huo, removed the redundant lines from his face and changed some of the outline. The image is closer to the special edition of the cartoon. It doesn't look very handsome, but it makes people like it more and more.

For elves, Meng Huo didn't change. He thought they were cute.

After finishing the manuscript setting, Meng Huo started the next step.

The production of an animation takes a long time, but the proportion of formal production is not large. The major thing is all kinds of preparation stages, including but not limited to planning review, fund calculation, script production, character and background drawing setting, personnel arrangement and so on. Any process can make animation production companies waste months of time, It is normal for an animation to be produced with an interval of more than half a year.

Phoenix's approach is more straightforward and violent.

Xu Jing gives Meng Huo the decision-making power of animation production. The plan is passed and the script is completed. Meng Huo, who is both the boss and the original case, gives the green light to cheat on his own way. After Li Hua and Zhong Yue see his manuscript, these two people who are familiar with animation production also praise him one after another.

"Teacher He Xi, you don't need to change the settings of characters and spirits. You can use them directly."

"The story is also good. When the company allocates funds, we can start work!"

The issue of funding is controversial. Funding is the cost, and the cost of animation production is very high. Meng Huo doesn't need to pay extra copyright buyout fees to launch animation, so financial director Lin Mingzhe generously gives a budget of 200000 yuan for each episode.

At present, in the Chinese animation industry, the cost of each episode is between 50000 and 150000, and there are more than 200000 funds for special themes or popular animations. Li Hua and Zhong Yue are satisfied with the funds, but Meng Huo doesn't agree.

"I want three hundred thousand."

His request made Lin Mingzhe frown. Based on his previous good impression, Lin Mingzhe asked Meng Huo why."I want to do this animation well. I can't lag behind Zhongxia company too much in funding."

Meng Huo's answer is that there is no news about Phoenix in all kinds of newspapers, posters and TV media in Ninghai.

As soon as the Zhongxia cartoon comes out, the Phoenix seems to be forgotten by the world. Ninghai is the headquarters of the Phoenix, and other places are even worse.

Moreover, after investigation, Meng Huo found that Zhongxia company and Tianhui animation started making new animation half a month ago. Zhongxia works in both ways and takes a leading position in the cartoon and animation industry.

They are rich and powerful, and the animation funds are very high, which can not be measured by market standards.

If it wasn't for the 300000 animated version of pet elf, Meng Huo might have asked for more.

"Tianhui..." when Lin Mingzhe heard this word, his attitude changed: "OK, 300000 is 300000!"

"Teacher He Xi, you must make more animation than them!"

Phoenix company has made a lot of money in the past half year. If we can see that Li Tianhui is ruined, Lin Mingzhe is willing to increase the funds.

The funding problem was solved, and the animation production began to enter the preparatory implementation stage. Meng Huo did not involve specific work. The personnel allocation and arrangement were decided by Li Hua and Zhong Yue, while Meng Huo was responsible for guiding the animation content to proceed as planned.

It's a complicated job. He has to keep an eye on almost every place. After several weeks of running in, other painters have set the characters and spirits to the satisfaction of Meng Huo.

"Pet elves" can be officially started. At the request of Xu Jing, Huayue company changed its name to "Huayue animation department of Phoenix company", inheriting the company's logo, a phoenix reborn from fire.

First of all, they have to make a trailer of "pet elf", and at the same time, they can officially announce Phoenix's entry into the animation industry. Although it is a trailer, it needs a lot of things, and Meng Huo has new troubles.

He wants to choose the voice actors, but the voice actors of Huaxia are relatively few, and after the invitation letter was sent out, most of the voice actors refused.

"Tianhui company is also doing animation. It's going to be a sound actor for you at this time. Isn't that bad for them?"

A voice actor replied
