Until the end, Mujiuxing did not clearly express its intention to hand over the exclusive broadcast authorization of "My Hero Academia" to Yueqi Video.

Although the cooperation between the two on "is" went smoothly, it was only smooth. Mu Xiuxing did not plan to talk about broadcast authorization too early. He is an animation director, but he is also a businessman. If other websites give

For a better price, there is no reason for Muxiuxing to push it out.

Of course, when the conditions given by several websites are the same, Mu Xiuxing does not mind giving priority to Yueqi Video. After all, in the animation field, Yueqi Video's traffic has always been among the best.

"Minister, what did the pastor say?"

As soon as Xiao Zhengwen hung up the phone, the team member on the side asked impatiently.

In the recent period, Yueqi Video has not been very successful in purchasing animation broadcast rights. If it hadn't been for the beginning of the year, there was still "is" to earn back face for Yueqi Video, then Yueqi Video would have

It can be said that it was completely defeated by Yunsu Video.

Especially when it comes to purchasing the rights to broadcast animations, Yunsu Video has often blocked the deal. The originally well-negotiated deal suddenly became useless because of Yunsu Video's intervention, and it actually gave the other party an advantage.

Just for this reason, their purchasing department received a lot of training.

Even Xiao Zhengwen himself, the situation is not very clear at the moment - if the superiors were not still thinking about the brilliant achievements brought about by his proposal to purchase "is", he, the head of the purchasing department, would probably have reached his end.

This is also the reason why Xiao Zhengwen is in a hurry to find Muxiuxing.

"He didn't agree," Xiao Zhengwen said. Unsurprisingly, the faces of his team members in front of him suddenly became a little depressed: "But he didn't refuse either."

"Is there any difference?" The team members were a little confused. In the past, they had not taken the lead in talking to those animation companies, but sometimes, even if they were one step ahead of Yunsu, as long as there was no contract signed, Yunsu could always find a way.

Through a series of methods, the animation company changed its mind and signed a contract with them for the video website.

This is true even for those companies that have verbally promised in the past. A small company like Huaying, which has only produced one animation so far, will it be an exception?

"Of course there is a difference," Xiao Zhengwen laughed: "Although Director Mu did not agree to me directly, I can see that he still prefers Yue Qi in his heart. As long as we come up with the same or better Yunsu

According to the conditions, Director Mu has no reason to reject us."

As for the animation produced by Huaying, no matter how much you pay, it is always worth it.

Xiao Zhengwen did not say this sentence. Although many people said that the success of "is" is just a temporary luck of Huaying Animation, and maybe the next animation will be brought back to its original shape, but psychologically, Xiao Zhengwen is already a success.

Be sure to hold on to the thighs of Huaying Animation——

He has always trusted his instincts.

…

Xiao Zhengwen's call was just a small episode.

While Mu Xingxue was running around looking for talents, Mu Xingxing stayed in his office and continued to write his animation script wholeheartedly. However, after Fang Lian heard about this, he went to his office every now and then.

Mu Xingxing thought he was concerned about the progress of the script at first, until——

"Has the production team of "is" finished it?" It only takes a day or two, but Fang Lian has been running here for several days in a row, and he has not been seen paying attention to the progress of the "My Hero Academia" animation script. Mu

Xue Xing was also a little confused.

"No."

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Isn't the new project started yet?" Fang Lian has always been thick-skinned. When Mu Xiuxing asked, he didn't hide his implicit meaning: "I just want to know, apart from Yueqi Video, there is no other website with you

Call to discuss the licensing fee."

Hearing this, Mu Xing couldn't laugh or cry.

"Although I also hope to see this scene, it's a pity," Mu Xingxing shrugged: "So far, the only one who has taken the initiative to call me and said that he wants to talk about licensing the new animation is an old acquaintance named Yue Qi Video.

That’s all.”

Fang Lian frowned: "Not even other small companies?"

As soon as Mu Xingxing saw it, he knew that the other party had gone astray.

"You don't really think that with "is", Huaying Animation can gain a firm foothold in the industry, right?" Mu Xing was helpless and funny at the same time: "It is undeniable that the results of "is" are indeed

It's brilliant, but judging from other video websites and animation companies, our success is due to a lot of luck."

"To put it bluntly, no matter how successful "is" is, it has happened in the past. The industry's recognition of "is" does not mean that they have recognized Huaying." Mu Xiuxing shook his head: "If you want them to admit Huaying, stop talking.

It will also have to be after we make three average animations."

This time Fang Lian understood: "What you mean is that even if we already have a hit work like "is", the industry will still not be optimistic about "My Hero Academia"."

"That's what I mean."

"So that's it," Fang Lian seemed a little disappointed: "I thought that with "is" as a foreshadowing, this time we should be able to cause a fight for the person in charge like in "The Little Prince"."

What he was talking about was exactly what caused several people in charge to fight over it after they finished "The Little Prince".

Originally, this matter was just an internal matter on the part of the person in charge of the subway. It was only after "The Little Prince" became a hit that it was mentioned as an interesting anecdote, causing the popularity of "The Little Prince" to surge again as the number of clicks had gradually stabilized.

.

But the two are obviously different.

During the "Little Prince" period, the reason why the seven people in charge wanted to win "The Little Prince" was after they watched the animated short film and determined its quality. And now, "My Hero Academia" even has a written script

, is just the beginning. Without absolute trust in the animation company itself, no website person in charge would have the idea of ​​obtaining broadcast authorization in advance.

The reason is simple - even for a well-known animation company, there is still the risk of losing money on a certain animation work. It is undoubtedly a very risky behavior to finalize the broadcast authorization before the first few episodes of the animation are ready for trial screening. Not to mention

It is said that Puxiuxing has not even finished writing the text script.

Achieving what Fang Lian said is much more difficult than the simple goal of "becoming an animation company recognized by the industry."

Mu Xingxing thought this, but he had no intention of attacking the other party, or perhaps he actually had similar ambitions in his own heart——

"There will come a day," he said.

——

Two weeks later, the personnel requested by the Pleiades were in place.

Speaking of this, one has to admire Mu Xingxue's work efficiency - Mu Xingxing originally thought that if the other party could complete eight or nine out of ten of the requests he made within the time limit, that would be pretty good.

After all, as the country began to crack down on piracy, animation talents have become more in demand. Whether you want to recruit or poach people, it is no longer as simple as it used to be.

However, under such a difficult situation, Mu Xingxue found him four animation screenwriters, nine original animators, six animators, and three background artists out of nowhere.

The most important thing is that the people Mu Xingxue hired are not the kind of people with half a bucket of water hanging around, but veterans with excellent professional skills.

This is undoubtedly what the Pleiades need most at this stage.

With the discussion and research of the market tastes by the other four screenwriters, Mujiuxing quickly determined the text script of "My Hero Academia", and the work on characters, props, background and color style was naturally handed over to

If you choose someone else, the Pleiades will make the final review and decision.

The dubbing director is a veteran employee within Huaying Animation, a veteran from the Rose Animation period.

Mu Xingxing breathed a sigh of relief.

With the help of such a complete production team, he was finally able to break away from other clutter and concentrate on drawing the animation scenes.

It has to be said that judging from the similar hot-blooded comics that Makijusei has watched so far, the comic storyboards of "My Hero Academia" are still far behind Masashi Kishimoto's "Naruto" and Oda Eiichiro's "One Piece".

There is a small difference. The original author Kohei Horikoshi is good at shaping the atmosphere, but his shot drawing is relatively average.

As a result, he inevitably has more things to pay attention to when drawing the shots.

"Don't draw the characters' expressions so restrained, try to be a little more exaggerated." Mu Xingxing said, picking up a pen and drawing a black face with an unhappy expression on another blank piece of paper - this

The face looked so exaggerated that the employees were almost startled.

What he drew was exactly the dark-faced expression of Bakugou Katsuki, who is famous for his bad temper in "My Hero Academia".

"Doesn't this look a little too fierce?" The employee couldn't help but say something more.

Generally speaking, comics and animations do use exaggerated techniques to express the emotions of characters, but the one drawn by Mu Xingxing seems to be a bit exaggerated.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the face on the drawing paper again - I have to say that this expression immediately made Bakugo Katsuki's character look more like a ferocious villain...

He kept muttering in his heart, but Mu Xingxing insisted: "No, just follow this standard."

In acgn subculture, characters like this, whose faces are distorted several times under certain circumstances, are called "Yan Yi". In Mu Xingxing's view, this kind of over-exaggerated expression is actually very suitable for "

My Hero Academia's Yan Yi herself is also part of what makes the audience laugh.

The employee wanted to say something else, but at this moment a clear voice sounded outside the gate not far away.

"Director," the person who came in from the outside at this time was Du Yutang, Mujiu Xing's personal assistant. The latter was still holding a notebook in his hand. He stopped in front of Mujiu Xing and opened the notebook in his hand.

Notebook, he said crisply:

"Director Dai asked me to ask you if you can ask the two editors from the production team here to help complete the final editing work."

There's nothing he can't agree to - Mu Xiuxing's animations have always been edited by himself, so lending them to Dai Yuyan won't have any impact.

"Okay, you can ask her to come over later and pick two out."

"Mr. Mu asked me to tell you about the directors' exchange meeting at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon..."

Mu Xing didn't even think about it: "I don't have much time recently, so let's push it." Before the animation in hand was completed, Mu Xing didn't plan to go anywhere.

"In addition, according to the survey statistics on the official blog, nearly 40% of fans expressed the hope that you can participate in the dubbing work of "My Hero Academia". The dubbing director agreed and I would like to ask what you mean."
