On June 25, 1991, Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan arrived in Shanghai.

They chose the first stop of their trip in Shanghai because Lin Zixuan wanted to watch the cartoon "Gourd Brothers".

The Shanghai City Art Film Studio invited him to come several times, but he had no chance. This time he came to visit.

Since this fairy tale was published in "Literary Boy", it has received praise from many fairy tale writers, but children's stories are niche after all, and most of them are children, and the influence is not great.

Perhaps it will only attract widespread attention after the cartoon is aired on TV.

Lin Zixuan called the American Film Studio in advance and told them that he would come today, but he did not ask the American Film Studio to send someone to pick him up. He didn't want to bother others, just find him.

The two got off the train, left the train station, and found a star-rated hotel to stay in first.

It is not a luxury to choose a star-rated hotel, but because of Mu Shanshan's identity. Many TV viewers know her. It is more at ease to live in a regular hotel. They are here to travel and don't want to be watched.

Besides, you must enjoy your honeymoon trip, only once in your life, and you cannot be too saving.

The two of them took a bath in the hotel and had a rest. They went to the art film studio in the afternoon.

In Jing'an District, the American Film Studio came to the door, took out a work permit, and asked the person guarding the door to call to notify the factory leaders.

After a while, the director in charge of the production of "The Gourd Brothers" came out to greet them and brought them into the production room.

The director is Hu Jinqing, who is in his fifties. He is a senior cartoon director and has a reputation in the field of Chinese animation.

At this time, the cartoon production of China's China was mainly based on paper-cut animations. Because there was no computer, it could only be made into paper puppets by using paper-cutting methods, absorbing the experience of shadow puppets to manipulate the movements of characters to make the paper puppets move.

The environmental space is composed of painted paper sheets and front and back scenes attached to glass, and the glass plates are separated by a certain distance to spread light in layers.

When shooting, place the paper puppet flat on the glass plate and shoot one by one, so that the paper puppet and the environment will be integrated.

It is obvious that it is labor-intensive to produce this way, and it takes more than half a year to complete the production of "The Gourd Brothers". At present, the American Film Studio has produced some of it, but there is no dubbing yet.

Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan watched a paragraph and thought it was very good, and the characters were vivid.

Especially for Lin Zixuan, she feels nostalgic, and Mu Shanshan also feels novel. She is the first reader of "The Gourd Brothers". She feels intimate when she sees the fairy tales turning into cartoons.

However, the cartoon market was not prosperous at this time, with large personnel flows, low output, shortage of funds and serious losses.

A 10-minute cartoon can only charge 100 yuan per time to broadcast on a TV station, while the production cost is as high as 300,000 yuan. It is not easy to recover the cost.

Moreover, not all cartoons produced have the quality guaranteed and are welcomed.

The TV station does not have a special animation channel, nor does it stipulate how many minutes of cartoons must be played every day.

The Shanghai City Art Film Studio hopes to create a fine cartoon that is loved by children. They have great expectations for "The Gourd Brothers" and want to fight a comeback.

As long as "The Hulu Brothers" is popular, the TV station will continue to replay it so that it can earn profits.

As the author, Lin Zixuan expressed his approval of the cartoons produced by the American Film Studio, which basically matched the images in his memory.

I had a meal in the canteen of the American Film Studio in the evening with the production team. They hoped that Lin Zixuan would create more children's stories that could be adapted into cartoons. Nowadays, fairy tales are innovated.

Lin Zixuan thought about it and had time to write "Black Cat Sheriff", which is also a classic cartoon.

When they returned to the hotel, the two of them were lying on the bed and watching TV. Tonight was the day when the Chinese TV station played "The Outside Girl".

As Zhang Yingying's singing sounded, the opening of "The Foreign Girl" appeared. In the producer column were Chen Changle and Lin Zixuan, in the screenwriter column, and in the theme song, Lin Zixuan, and the songwriter of the theme song was still Lin Zixuan.

Although the name Lin Zixuan has a high appearance rate, the audience still doesn't care.

They thought this song was very nice. Seeing Chen Xiaoyi was very handsome and Tang Zhenzong was very handsome. No audience would pay attention to the people behind the scenes.

At the same time, Chen Changle, who was in Huacheng, was watching, Zhang Yingying, Chen Xiaoyi, who was in the capital, Li Hong, and even Tang Zhenzong was watching.

This TV series contains many people's expectations, and whether it can be successful will be seen in the next few days.

The audience who just watched this drama would not have expected that in the next period of time, this TV series triggered a nationwide discussion on reform and opening up.

This is the first time that Chinese audiences have seen the Flower City mode up close and understand what exactly happened in Flower City.

Is there a paradise for pursuing dreams or an abyss that makes people fall into depravity? After watching this TV series, the number of young men and women who go to Huacheng to work in rural mainland China has increased dramatically. This is the demonstration effect.

Because of this TV series, China entered a new era of farmers going south to work.

The song "I Don't Want to Say" spread throughout the streets and alleys of China, and Zhang Yingying tasted the taste of becoming popular.

"Xiao Chen is acting well." Mu Shanshan commented after watching a TV series.

"I am a professional, so of course I am good at acting. Let's wait. After this drama is played, she will become a good person." Lin Zixuan said affirmatively.

"Do you have a unique sense of accomplishment?" Mu Shanshan said curiously, """ "Desire" became popular with Zhang Kaili, and "Foreign Girl" made Xiao Chen popular again. You will be a sign in the TV industry in the future."

"Where has it been? After the "Story of the Editorial Department" is broadcast, you will know it is amazing." Lin Zixuan said proudly, "I dare not say anything else, but Brother You must be remembered by the people of the whole country. The 1.2 billion people in China, at least 600 million people know him."

"I believe this, I'm so silly at first sight, and the audience will definitely not forget it." Mu Shanshan nodded and said, "You are really a feather flock together. A bunch of people who are not in tune with each other can still figure out something."

"What does it mean to be out of tune? You don't understand. This means that we all have the hearts of literary and artistic youth." Lin Zixuan argued.

"Come on, I think you're just talking nonsense." Mu Shanshan exposed.

The next day, the two of them came to the Bund in Shanghai, looked at the Huangpu River, and strolled around the snack street, leisurely.

At this time, the influence of "Foreign Girl" had already emerged, and a large number of commentary articles appeared in the newspaper.

China TV has undoubtedly sent a signal, combining it with the current public opinion trend, allowing many people to see a major trend, and the steps of reform must move forward in great strides.

A great era of turbulence is coming.
