Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 107 A Man's Promise

"Do you have any ideas?"

"I don't have any special ideas, but I want to have some involvement in ancient costumes, especially armor."

"How to say?"

The sun was too strong at noon in the summer, so Chen's father called his son to the air-conditioned room to continue talking.

Chen Linfeng had long been dissatisfied with the crudeness of ancient domestic war armor, starting in his previous life.

For many years, there has been no texture in the armor, or the armor has been borrowed from the neon style. Even a drama with huge investment and excellent production like the old Three Kingdoms is not immune to this.

The later Daqin series did a good job in armor, and restored the leather armor of the pre-Qin period very well.

It is difficult to describe the later dynasties.

Chain mail, Ming Guang armor, Shanwen armor, and infantry armor are basically not seen in many dramas.

Their film and television studio is themed on the Tang Dynasty, and the next dramas to be filmed, whether "Detective Di Renjie 2" or "The Zhenguan Era", are both historical dramas of the Tang Dynasty.

So Chen Linfeng thought it would be best to set up a studio on his own that specializes in the design and production of Tang Dynasty armor.

"Anyway, we are building a film and television city, and the supporting facilities should be well built. Other crews can also pay for better services when they come to shoot TV series."

Chen Shantong scratched his head. "It's not that it's impossible, but if we want to make a detailed restoration of this thing, we also need professional guidance."

He spread his hands and said, "You know, your father is a rough man and doesn't know any talent in this area."

Chen Linfeng directly recommended an expert to him, Professor Yang Hong from Yan University.

"I've read his book 'Ancient Chinese Armor', which is of very high quality. We can invite him to be a consultant."

This person later became the prop consultant for "Red Cliff".

Although the script of Red Cliff is a mess, it has to be said that the armor and props are already among the best among film and television dramas of the same period.

Chen Linfeng was worried that his father would be reluctant to spend money, so he said directly, "You can use my money for the initial investment. At worst, you can put your name on it first, and then transfer the studio to me when I come of age."

Chen Shantong raised his hand and said, "Money is not a problem. These supporting facilities are already within the scope of the plan. We want to do it ourselves, but the local government of Ping City may not agree. We should work together."

As long as it can be publicized to the outside world, shooting historical dramas in Pingshi Film and Television City with exquisitely restored costumes and props is a good way to inherit the historical culture.

Having such a gimmick is enough for the local government, and it is all political achievements.

Chen Linfeng didn't stay here for long and returned to his hometown the next day.

Shi Xiaolong is also at home.

Now that "Water Moon Cave" is on air, the character Yin Tianchou played by him unfortunately left the stage, which was widely discussed in the media and on the Internet. Everyone said that it was because of his studies and the screenwriter had to end the plot early.

In fact, this is also a classic saying about him. The early death of Pei Yuanqing in last year's "The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties" was also interpreted in this way.

Shi Xiaolong's career was going well and he was in a good mood. When he came out of the house, he walked with the wind.

He took the things his brother was carrying, and thinking of Chen Linfeng's experience in Emily Ken some time ago, he asked, "What does it feel like to shoot the cover of Time magazine?"

Chen Linfeng smacked his lips, savoring the moment, "I didn't feel anything. I only realized it after the shoot was over."

He said with regret, "Oh, I should have asked a photographer to take more photos. It was such a rare opportunity."

Shi Xiaolong came up and used his throat-locking technique, "Don't think I didn't hear you. You're trying to trick me by imitating Zhu Bajie and eating ginseng fruit."

When Chen's mother saw the two of them fighting, she didn't bother to care, as long as the two of them didn't feel hot.

Sure enough, after a while, they couldn't stand the heat anymore, so they separated and ran back to their room to turn on the air conditioner.

Chen Linfeng was no longer in the mood to joke. He lifted the bottom of his T-shirt to let in the cool air while answering the question seriously.

“The process of shooting for other magazines is basically the same, at most it’s a little more professional, but the feeling is a little different. It makes people feel more confident. After all, not too big or too small is a recognition of the individual.”

He turned around and looked at Shi Xiaolong with encouraging eyes.

"You are now China's most famous child martial arts star. As long as you maintain this trend and successfully transform yourself, you will have opportunities in the future."

"I will."

Shi Xiaolong nodded seriously.

The two of them looked extremely serious, as if they had made an agreement. Then they shuddered at the same time, and goose bumps appeared on their bodies.

"Haha, you've been fooled." "Do you think I'm serious?"

The two people spoke at the same time, and when they realized that the other was not responding, they turned their heads at the same time.

"Tsk"

At this time, Chen's mother brought half a watermelon from the kitchen and greeted the two of them.

"Okay, stop messing around and come and eat some melon."

As she cut the melon, she muttered, "When one person is at home, he is always quiet, but why does the other one start to make noise after a while?"

Chen Linfeng stayed at home until the end of July, until he finished writing "Infinite World 7".

After returning from the United States in mid-March, he wrote about 3 words a day on the set, which lasted for two months.

I wrote 8 words every day in school for a month, and almost words a day after returning home, totaling to words. I finally finished the second book.

The remaining third part also ends with about the same number of words.

However, although it is a trilogy, each book is not actually a separate volume, but is divided into two volumes.

Chen Linfeng asked Sister Mei to send the printed drafts to Mengya, Nihong and Emilyken respectively.

Time is still very tight. The foreign version needs to be translated. If we want it to be available at the beginning of the school season, one or two translations will not be enough.

After all, Chinese is the most condensed language, and if you want to translate it into a foreign language, it will take a lot more words.

Next, he will go to Neon and Emily Ken to participate in promotional activities.

Neon had been booked long ago, and Emily Ken was here to promote her new book.

Chen Linfeng and Sister Mei arrived in Neon Tokyo in early August.

"Mr. Chen, as a major shareholder of our Type-Moon, you have never come to inspect the company. You really don't take it seriously." Takeuchi complained slightly.

"Haha, I trust you and Xu Yuan."

Takeuchi is currently doing well. The pen name he gave himself, Takeuchi Takashi, is known as Nao Kinoko, whose real name is Urobuchi Machi, and he is well-known in the industry.

This time when I came to Neon, I was also going to discuss the issue of the upcoming animation.

The topic of animation was first proposed by Chen Linfeng when he was communicating with Takeuchi online.

In the current Japanese animation industry, there are not many cases of light novels being adapted into animations, and they are mainly concentrated in fantasy adventure themes, such as "Slayers" and "Kino's Journey".

Yes, it’s the “Kino’s Journey” that once competed with “Destiny”.

Publishing houses rarely take the initiative to intervene.

This may be because the few light novels that have been adapted into animations were all already very popular works, and the effect of animation on boosting the sales of the works was not noticed.

It is possible that they have noticed it, but given the atmosphere in Japan where people are afraid to take the lead, few people dare to make a decision without forming an industry consensus.

Takeuchi was very interested in Chen Linfeng's proposal, and then he contacted Kodansha as a planning producer.

As the second generation, Noma had the opportunity to trial and error, and "Fate" itself was his starting point, so he planned to formally adapt it into an animation.

Currently, the animation production committee has begun to be formed, and producers are joining one after another.

This is also a characteristic of the Japanese animation industry, a system that started with "Neon Genesis Evangelion".

From the perspective of risk sharing, attracting multiple investors to join the committee can reduce the difficulty of launching animation projects.

In the later stage, it was changed to involve stakeholders in all aspects of animation production to profitability, such as music CDs, animation BDs, peripheral products, and animation broadcasting rights, so as to reduce communication costs and increase later profitability before animation production.

"Is there any animation production company that Kirin-sensei is interested in?"

At the production committee meeting, TBS staff member Anzai Takashi asked.
