Boss, bosses flew into the studio one by one, and a group of sloppy otakus stood up and said hello to Li Xiaohu.

Li Xiaohu greeted the leader with a very stylish attitude. This was not the first time he entered the studio. He also came once when he acquired the studio, so the employees recognized him.

The reason why I came here today was that the studio's boss Lan Qiao called Li Xiaohu and said that there was something to discuss.

Li Xiaohu has been thinking about postmodernist movies recently and preparing speech materials. He is so immense, so he simply goes to the studio to relax his brain.

After walking around the studio, Li Xiaohu, Lanqiao, and several senior executives from the studio, sat down at Lanqiao's office.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?" Li Xiaohu asked after sitting down.

"Boss, are you satisfied with the special effects of "American Journey"?" Lan Qiao pushed the glasses on the nose beam that were as thick as those on the bottom of the beer bottle, but asked an unrelated question.

"So it's because of the reward?" Li Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I am of course very satisfied with the special effects of "A Chinese Odyssey". Well, thank you for your hard work, but the movie's release period has not yet ended, and the box office share has not yet come out. You come here to seek rewards now. Isn't it a bit too anxious?"

After being slightly stung by the boss, Lan Qiao didn't feel much embarrassed and smiled and said, "The boss has sent a red envelope a long time ago, so we don't have to come and ask for credit again. However, there are too few jobs in the studio now, and everyone is idle and has some hands. I feel sorry for the boss to pay such a high salary!"

The former Feixiang Studio was devoted to technical research and development, and often couldn't get work, so it almost went bankrupt. Since Li Xiaohu took over Feixiang Studio, he has invested a lot of money and took over the special effects of the two movies "A Chinese Odyssey" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". It was considered that the situation improved slightly with the business.

However, after "A Chinese Odyssey" ended, the studio had no more things to do except "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and there were no additional income. There were still too few blockbusters playing special effects in China.

The special effects of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are just pediatrics for the studio, and there is no need to invest much energy. Now the studio's focus is more on developing new technologies, and there is no other source of income, and it is entirely supported by the funds invested by Li Xiaohu. Lan Qiao is really afraid of repeating the same mistake.

"Oh, that's right, technical investment is indispensable. You don't have to feel sorry for your salary. As long as you get the technology, there are some jobs for you to do in the future." Li Xiaohu heard that this is the reason, but he thinks that people who work in technology are so simple and cute. Many office workers who work from 9 to 5 want to do nothing all day. Anyway, they still get the salary, so how can they think they are too idle?

Seeing Lan Qiao and several senior executives in the studio looking at each other, all smiling bitterly, Li Xiaohu thought for a while and said with a smile: "Since you think your work is too easy, then if I, the boss, don't find something for you, I'm so sorry for your enthusiasm..."

Lan Qiao and several executives were immediately excited and looked at the boss as if they were expecting.

"Let me tell you a fairy tale first!" Li Xiaohu said with a smile.

"Fairy Tale?" Lan Qiao and others were not calm again, thinking that the boss's thinking was very jumping.

"Long time ago, in a distant swamp, there lived a green monster named Shrek in the swamp." Living a leisurely life.

One day, his peaceful life was broken by a few uninvited guests. They were a little mouse with bad eyes, a big bad wolf and three homeless pigs. They all escaped from the fairy tale kingdom. In order to keep them away from their swamps and to purify themselves, Shrek let a talking donkey lead the way to the kingdom to find the kingdom.

At this time, the king was worried about his throne. Because the Magic Mirror told him that he would marry a princess to truly become the king, he chose the princess Fiona, who was trapped on the tower and protected by the fire dragon, and was preparing to select the knights to rescue the princess. Shrek happened to come and defeat all the knights. The king was going to catch Lake, but later he used the trick and asked Shrek to save the princess, on the condition that he would return to Shrek's swamp, so he and the donkey set off on the way.

Shrek successfully rescued the princess, but on the way, he found out that he fell in love with Princess Fiona, and the princess already had feelings for Shrek. However, because the princess herself was shaking, she had a beautiful appearance during the day and turned into a monster at night, so she never dared to confess. But in the end, true love defeated her appearance, and the princess was finally with Shrek."

This story is naturally abbreviated version. Lan Qiao and several executives are both adults, so they probably won’t like to listen to long-term fairy tales. They don’t understand what Li Xiaohu’s sudden fairy tale is meant to tell a fairy tale, and they are all thinking hard about what the meaning of this fairy tale has.

"Do you think there are any technical problems if this fairy tale is made into a movie using 3D animation technology?" Li Xiaohu asked with a smile.

"Pure 3D animated movie? This should be a technical problem." Lan Qiao suddenly realized, but he was still a little doubtful. But can animated movies recover the cost?"

"Toy Story", released in the late 1995th anniversary of his previous life, is the first animated feature film that completely uses computer animation technology and was a big success in the box office. The success of this film also greatly inspired the confidence of major film giants in 3D animated films. Two thousand years later, 3D animated film ushered in a period of rapid development, and excellent works continue to emerge. "Shrek Monster" is the most successful work of this period.

However, the historical trajectory of this world is slightly different. In 1995, a three-dimensional animated film was released in Hollywood, but the box office was not satisfactory. **The studio that produced this animated film was even in crisis.

It was eventually acquired by a film company.

Although 3D animated movies will not stagnate, it has indeed greatly affected everyone's active striking in 3D animated movies. There have been no purely animated blockbusters released in the past two years. In fact, even in their previous lives, there were not many 3D animated movies released before 1998.

Three-dimensional animation technology is more used in blockbusters such as science fiction, magic, and hero films.

In the film industry, following the trend is a common phenomenon. If any type of movie suddenly sells, then countless followers will be able to quickly catch up. But if the pioneer accidentally encounters a failure, it will also make this type of movie depressed and become a minefield for everyone to stay away from, until the second person who takes the lead comes forward and regains the confidence of investors.

So Lanqiao's doubts are not an unreasonable worry.

"Haha, can you recover the cost? That is what my boss should consider. What you need to do is to do your best and use the technology you have mastered to make the best and most perfect well product." Li Xiaohu xiong smiled confidently and said, "As long as the things you make satisfy me, no matter what the final box office is, I will send you red envelopes, just like "A Chinese Odyssey"!"

When Li Xiaohu watched the special effects of "A Chinese Odyssey" were completed, he felt very satisfied, so he immediately sent a generous red envelope to each technician who participated in the production. This is Li Xiao

Tigers will give them additional rewards, and when the movie box office comes out, they will also give them corresponding red envelopes.

Although Li Xiaohu doesn't know how to be polite and polite, he doesn't have so many twists and turns, he knows the simplest truth: if you want a horse to run, you have to give it grass. Although red envelopes are vulgar, they can win people's hearts but they will be invincible.

"As long as it is technical things, you will never disappoint your boss." Speaking of technology, Lan Qiao was confident and then embarrassed: "But since you want to make animated movies, who will be the director? Our studio is full of technicians, and you know nothing about this!"

"No rush for this, I will get it done soon." Li Xiaohu thought about it. Even Hollywood, the most developed film industry, can't find a few people in directing animation films. I'm afraid there will be even fewer related talents in China, which is really a problem.

If there is really no one, he has to go on the battlefield himself, but he doesn't know if he can take time out. "We will set up the character now. Before finding the director, you can first create a story scene, a simple model of the corners, a prop and a material map. I will write the storyboard script soon."

Lan Qiao didn't expect the boss to be so decisive and acted like this. When he heard Li Xiaohu's orders, he quickly asked someone to come over with the verb and manuscript paper.

Li Xiaohu had long shown his extremely sharp painting skills in front of the technicians of Feixiang Studio, no matter what kind of art... In fact, these technical otakus may not have much artistic cultivation at least in terms of the speed of painting. Li Xiaohu successfully shocked these technical otakus.

But even though they had seen it, Lan Qiao and others saw Li Xiaohu's fingers again, and they portrayed the fairy tale characters on paper. Even the scenes and environments that appeared in many stories were drawn by Li Xiaohu. They still looked straight and admired this versatile boss.

Usually in the studio, everyone would occasionally talk about the boss’s gossip. Everyone already felt that the gossip that was flying all over the sky was very exaggerated, but after seeing the boss himself, everyone realized that the media reports were indeed a bit inaccurate, not too exaggerated, but not too exaggerated enough. The boss’s wise and powerful force is only more amazing than the media reports.

For example, the boss's move is almost at its peak, and it is like a painting skill like printing, so few media have reported on it.

"Uh, that's not the case. Everyone usually orders takeout." Lan Qiao nodded and said, "I'll call someone to deliver the food immediately. What should the boss eat?"

"Whatever you eat, just order me the same portion. I'm not picky about food." Li Xiao

Hu looked at his watch and it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. "I forgot the time. Why didn't you remind me just now? It made everyone go hungry with me. I'm so embarrassed!"

"Haha, this is nothing. We often do this. Sometimes when we miss the time, we simply don't eat lunch. When we are hungry, we just chew a bun to make our stomachs. Everyone has been accustomed to it," Lan Qiao explained with a smile while calling for takeaway.

"This is not OK," Li Xiaohu shook his head and said, "I know that you technical people don't pay much attention to the quality of life, but if this continues for a long time, it will be bad for your health. Let's do this, Lanqiao, you will hire a few chefs tomorrow and open a canteen for everyone. The company will pay for it as a benefit.

Also, make a place out there and set up a cafe. You can also sit and relax your brain when you are working.

This was the boss's concern. When Lan Qiao agreed, the others in the office quickly stood up to thank him. Although it was just a trivial matter, it was very humane, enough to touch the technicians.

On this day, Li Xiaohu was in Feixiang Studio and discussed "Monster Shrek" with everyone. He wrote and painted casually, and vivid pictures were born quickly. Then he put a few lines next to him. If the system successfully connected all Li Xiaohu's labor for a day, it would be possible to make a comic strip.

Even if you don’t need a detailed script, you can easily imagine the outline of this story when you look at the manuscript paper with simple lines.

So much so that everyone couldn't help but start wondering if the boss had already had the idea of ​​making this animated movie? Otherwise, how could a story be perfected to this level in such a short time?

When Li Xiaohu left Feixiang Studio, the lights were already on.

The technicians in the studio are all workaholics, because many of them are single, and they have nothing to do when they go back, so they just stay in the studio and work overtime. Some people even spend the night in the studio often... Of course, such overtime work has no overtime pay, and everyone is purely out of interest.

When Li Xiaohu went back, he passed by a cinema and slowed down his car and observed it. There were so many people queuing up to buy tickets.

"A Chinese Odyssey" has been released for more than ten days, but its popularity has continued to increase. Many places often show a grand occasion of hard-to-find tickets. Even if the attendance rate is not full, it will always be successful. It can be described as crazy.

The media's comments on "A Chinese Odyssey" were also praised. Luo Tian found a lot of gunmen, but he couldn't even make up the huā at all. The public naturally had their own judgment. It would be difficult for a good movie to discredit even if it was to discredit it.

In media such as newspapers and magazines, there are often voices that discredit "American Journey" and on the Internet, it is completely one-sided. On a completely open platform like the "American Journey" forum, everyone can express their opinions and represent the voice of the audience. Therefore, more and more fans of the big talk come to visit, and the forum has become more and more influential.
