Tian Shao wanted to draw a comic with the theme of love. Zhao Xiaorou was more interested than her and helped collect materials. She told Tian Shao another story that day, about a rich lady who fell in love with a gang leader.
Zhao Xiaorou said: "Xiao Shao, this is true. The rich lady is my friend's cousin. Her father is a university professor and her mother is a dancer. But that girl was so obsessed that she ran away with the man regardless of her parents' objections.
"
The training class she signed up for was not far from Jingding Garden, and it only took seven or eight minutes to walk there. The house here had many rooms, so she came here after get off work and had dinner before going to the training class.
"and after?"
Zhao Xiaorou sighed and said: "Her cousin died later and was humiliated to death by the gangster's enemies. The little boss sent the body back and then disappeared. Some said he was killed due to failure in revenge, others said he left for a foreign country. I don't know what happened to him.
.”
Tian Shao watched a TV show in his previous life. The content was similar to this story, in which a young lady fell in love with a gangster. However, there were too many fighting scenes and it was banned from broadcasting.
"Xiao Shao, I think many people will like this story if I write it."
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "What I want to write is a sweet love, not a sadistic love. But this material is not bad, I can let the company's painter handwrite it."
Fu Yu brought a cup of mango smoothie to Xiaorou and said, "Comrade Tian made this himself. You can try the taste."
After taking a bite, Zhao Xiaorou was full of praise. After finishing the meal, she put down the bowl and said, "In this weather, I really don't want to go to work. Alas, this job is too rare, otherwise I would go to the resort to escape the summer heat."
Hearing the words "Summer Resort", Tian Shao's heart skipped a beat, then he got up and entered the room.
Fu Yu stood nearby and was stunned for a moment watching her move, and then shouted: "Comrade Tian, what's wrong with you..."
Zhao Xiaorou quickly grabbed her and told her not to disturb Tian Shao. After knowing her for so many years, she knew very well that Tian Shao must have been inspired just now. But after thinking about it seriously, she didn't realize that she had said any useful information.
.
It wasn't until ten o'clock in the evening that Tian Shao came out of the room.
Zhao Xiaorou had just finished taking a shower and was watching TV in the living room. When he saw her, he couldn't help but ask: "Do you have an idea?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "It's already been conceived. The theme is a story about a couple in college who broke up due to a misunderstanding and then reunited at a resort to renew their relationship."
What she wants to write is a light-hearted and interesting love story, and it is quite appropriate to set it in a resort. Of course, writing about campus love would be more popular, but since she is mature and has been honing her skills in society for many years, she cannot write such a story.
A hazy and sweet flavor comes out.
Zhao Xiaorou was so impressed that she said: "I just said casually that you have inspiration. Xiao Shao, I really think you should go out more often so that you can get more inspiration."
"By the way, the background of your story is in a resort. You have never stayed in a resort. You are imagining it out of thin air. You may think it is different from reality. Then you will be picked on. Xiao Shao, I think you should
Go to a resort and stay for a while so bugs won’t happen.”
Tian Shao had this plan: "I'll ask someone to consult later to see which resort in Hong Kong City is better?"
Zhao Xiaorou had been to a resort before and found it pretty good, so she recommended it to Tian Shao. Tian Shao went there two days later, stayed there for a week, collected the necessary materials, and then came back, and then started creating new comics.
Fu Yu followed Tian Shao to Hong Kong several times, and every time she felt like she was here for holiday shopping. This was the first time I saw her working seriously.
She was a little frightened when she took this seriously. Except for going out for an hour in the morning and evening and having three meals, she was in the study the rest of the time.
Ten days later, Tian Shao called over Xing Shaohui and Editor-in-Chief Gong. She handed them the plot and the first issue of the comic, and then said: "This comic is temporarily scheduled to have eight issues, and this is the first issue.
.”
After reading the plot, Xing Shaohui said with a smile: "The story is very interesting. If I were 20 years younger, I would also want to have a relationship. Xiao Shao, there is a lack of love themes in Hong Kong now. After your comic is published, I guess
Soon there will be film and television companies coming to buy the rights."
This story is not just about the romance between the male and female protagonists, but also about the young people’s determination to idealize and their longing for the future. After reading it, I felt positive and uplifting.
Gong Qishui read the comic booklet and then looked at the plot, and then made a very pertinent opinion: "Boss, since this comic only has eight issues, you should draw it yourself and don't rely on others. Others can't draw it as well as you."
Tian Shao nodded in agreement, and then said to Xing Shaohui: "Uncle Xing, do you still remember what I told you before? I hope that in the future the company can develop its own copyrights and make cartoons and film and television works instead of just selling the copyrights. We will talk about it in the future
If someone comes to buy the copyright, we must participate and train our own manpower."
Of course Xing Shaohui will not forget it, but now there is a very serious problem: "Xiao Shao, you have to be rich to make cartoons, movies and TV shows! Without money, you can't do anything."
Tian Shao knew that the comic company only kept working capital, and the rest had been withdrawn: "Uncle Xing, there is no rush, let's get involved first. As for making animations and movies, we can attract investment when the time comes."
Xing Shaohui said no more objections, he also wanted to expand his business.
Tian Shao and Gong Qishui said: "A few days ago, Sister Xiaorou told me a story about a rich young lady falling in love with a gang leader. I think such a story is very attractive, and it should be very popular if it is drawn into a comic.
"
It's definitely not possible to just write about the love between a wealthy lady and a gangster in a straightforward way. It has to be processed to make it more attractive.
Gong Qishui also thinks this point is very good, but neither he nor his team are good at this kind of love theme. He is worried that if they write it, it will turn into a gang fight.
Tian Shao thought for a while and said: "In this way, after I get the outline out, I will give it to you, and you can write the plot based on the outline. If it is good, I will take it back and revise it. If it doesn't work, I will leave it to others to do it."
Her knowledge of gangs comes from film and television works. She came to Hong Kong several times and her activities were relatively small, and she had never met anyone in a gang. So asking her to write about gangs might be divorced from reality. As for love,
She can complete it, but the plot can be discussed with several female painters when the time comes.
Gong Qishui nodded repeatedly: "Okay, we will do our best to write this story well."
Tian Shao is very generous and will give her a bonus even if the plot they write does not suit her in the end. The reason why they want to buy a second house is also because the salary is high and the bonus is great. As long as you work hard here, the rewards are impressive.
