"Times have changed, seniors."

A simple sentence was spoken by Gu Xue. Her voice was very soft and soft. In fact, it had no deterrent effect at all. But for some reason, when Gu Xue said these words, it made people feel particularly powerful...

"Seniors, you may not understand what I mean, so I might as well delay you for a while and let me talk for a while."

Gu Xue held the grand prize trophy and said calmly: "Everyone here should know my resume. I first worked at snakehead as the second original artist. During that time, I met a lot of interesting people.

, such as Mr. Misawa Hiro, Ms. Mihara Chisa, and Mr. Yoneyama, who are currently working at YUKI Studio, and other backbone painters. By the way, there is also Mr. Abe Moichi from the outside. He is the first supervisor I met.

, a very friendly supervisor.”

"The first time I officially participated in animation production as an original artist was to work with this group of people to produce the animation "Uncle Ben" with a hard-to-explain title. But I was really happy during that time, even though I was really happy at that time.

For example, after discovering that I can draw, I started to modify the storyboards desperately, which made everyone stay up late. Mr. Misawa Hiroshi, who was the first to modify the storyboards, I suspect that it was the root of the disease that started at that time, and he started to go bald...

…”

In a very serious tone, Gu Xue talked about the root cause of baldness, and a kind laughter immediately broke out from underneath, as if she found it interesting.

Gu Xue also smiled and continued: "However, it was hard work at that time, but I really feel that I can work there for the rest of my life. Although it is hard, I feel that I will definitely be promoted together with this group of interesting people.

, and then at a certain time, we can create interesting animations together.”

"But unfortunately, it backfired. You should all know what happened next. I beat up a person. I was still young and impulsive at the time. I knew there was something wrong with me, and I also reflected on it. Not only did I reflect on it,

, the supervisor at the time, Hiroshi Misawa, also reflected on it, and the producer at the time, Ms. Mihara, also reflected on it, but in the end, they were still not forgiven."

"I'm not referring to the forgiveness of the person involved. Although I was impulsive at the time, I don't regret it. The forgiveness I'm referring to is the forgiveness of Snakehead's senior executives at the time. The senior executives at the time had never met me or asked about the cause of the matter.

It was so indiscriminate and they just told me to apologize and get out. Do you know? I was not feeling well at that time. This simple and crude way of handling this, this thinking mode that I couldn’t understand at all, I even doubted whether I was working in an animation company.

Already."

Gu Xue's voice was neither loud nor quiet.

The people in the audience slowly stopped smiling, and some young producers even shook their heads and smiled bitterly, as if they had thought of something.

"It was at that time that I had the idea of ​​setting up my own business."

Gu Xue said expressionlessly: "I have no choice but to set up my own business. Although I was not fired due to the efforts of Mr. Misawa Hiroshi and Miss Mihara Chisa, the plan was greatly affected. The senior management at the time also expressed their concern.

We are very dissatisfied. If we stay here any longer, we will die slowly."

"So, in order to give myself and those who work hard together a place to stay, I took people to leave... and that's how YUKI Studio was established."

"This is the story of the founding of YUKI Studio. Simply put, I was forced to create it. After the establishment of YUKI Studio, I actually didn't have much ambition, at least at the beginning, because it was too troublesome.

I find it troublesome."

"Until, I served as a supervisor for the first time, supervising the animation "Embrace a Better Tomorrow"... It's funny to say that the first time I served as a supervisor for a TV animation, I just didn't get along with the producer and the original author.

Hell difficulty! You can think about how uncomfortable that environment is. I can understand that the original author and I don’t get along, but I really can’t understand the producer at the time, that veteran.”

"I was warned without doing anything. The reason was that I was young... OK! I took it as a warning from an elder. But later, the production got on track, and the old producer still didn't forget to push me.

If you give me a stumbling block, I will really accept it. Is it really difficult to turn your head around? Is it so difficult to just turn around a little and change your stubborn thoughts? "

"However, it seems really difficult."

"As a result, the animation "Embracing a Better Tomorrow" has become the most tiring animation I have done so far, even more tiring than Titan. At that time, I also made up my mind to make "Attack on Titan"

The production of this animation was silently put on the schedule. I really had enough! I wanted to say no to the producer with confidence, I wanted a resume, and I wanted to make others speechless. My idea at that time was that simple."

"The reason why this work Giant was born, and why I am standing here in the end, is that simple."

Gu Xue looked around at everyone below. Her eyes were not sharp, but many people she glanced at would subconsciously turn their heads.

"As for the grievances between me and the two seniors present, in addition to normal business competition, it also has something to do with them. One of them tore up fans' belongings and cursed young fans as trash of the loose era. The reason is just because he

He looked down on me as a young animator... and the other one went even further. He let a production manager who had just joined the industry take the blame. When we met for the second time, he didn't feel any guilt at all. He even asked me, "Who am I?"

thing……"

In the audience, Suzuki Yuichiro and Narita Kei's faces turned green.

They didn't dare to say anything, but Gu Xue brought it up again, unscrupulously.

Fortunately, Gu Xue is not here to quarrel with them, at least, not specifically here to quarrel with them.

"Of course, what I said is not directed at any one person."

Gu Xue stopped and continued to talk to Kei Narita and Yuichiro Suzuki: "After saying so much, I actually just wanted to quote the sentence that times have changed, seniors."

"Having gotten to where I am today is partly because I was forced."

"What forced me was the decadent and outdated thinking patterns of some of my predecessors, as well as some inexplicable sense of superiority of 'experienced people'. You may say, this is a good thing, forcing you to establish YUKI Studio.

"

"No, I don't think so, because there is only one Gu Xue, but there are many young people, and my wish, until now, is just to make animations with a group of like-minded friends, nothing more! What if

If the senior management of Snakehead were a little more reasonable and open-minded, maybe I would still be making animations at Snakehead now, how relaxing that would be."

"So, seniors, please give up that decadent and old way of thinking, and give up that inexplicable sense of superiority of 'experienced people'. Although it is difficult, at least, please give young people some confidence."

"You are still a bright light. I cannot deny this no matter what. You fought your way out in the barbaric period, when the entire industry was about to end. Your works, techniques, insights and experiences are all the lights that guide us, the younger generations, to move forward."

"Just like the seniors like Mr. Jinyu Iteng who participated in the production of Giant, they have been guiding YUKI studio forward some time ago. So I hope that all the bright lights present can be less prejudiced and decadent.

.Not only in the animation industry, I hope that at any time, you can be less prejudiced and change your thoughts a little bit."

"Of course, you may be worried that young people will screw up, worry that they will die, or to put it more clearly, you will not believe in young people from the beginning. This is actually normal, but between worry and confidence, I hope that you

Be able to think based on reason and reality, rather than past experience and prejudice.”

"If you really can't convince yourself..."

Gu Xue paused, then suddenly chuckled, holding the trophy in one hand, extending her index finger and pointing at herself: "Then I can, I can be a reference, I can be... the light that helps you make decisions!

"

"I'm done. Thank you!"

After saying the last sentence, Gu Xue didn't wait for the host's reaction, bowed directly, and then walked off the stage briskly.

The crane camera focuses on her graceful back.

In the live broadcast room.

Gu Xue's words made the barrage of gags in the live broadcast room disappear without a trace.

The screen is clean.

Until Gu Xue came off the stage, the camera was focused on her back.

A barrage slowly floated out.

"So beautiful, so cute, so confident, I really want to marry her..."
