Huayu 97: The Beginning of a Marriage Fraudulently

Chapter 137 Do you like animated movies? Then draw Nezha
After Liu Yifei completed the special effects motion capture, Chen Siyuan returned to the capital.

All the people recruited for the Light Chaser Animation Department this time have gathered at the Light Chaser headquarters.

As the person who strongly advocated the establishment of the Light Chaser Animation Department, Chen Siyuan naturally had to attend the founding conference of the Light Chaser Animation Department.

Nearly twenty people were recruited from all over the country.

Among them are those who work in the animation production industry, and some who, like Jiaozi, are passionate about animation production.

Others cannot see the future, so even within Guangxian, many executives do not understand Chen Siyuan's operations.

With the current status of Light Media, it shouldn't be difficult to set up an animation production department and recruit people!

Why go to so much trouble to recruit people all over the country?

The key is that there is no work experience requirement!

However, Chen Siyuan is the big boss of Light Media.

The second boss, Wang Changtian, obeyed Chen Siyuan's orders, so even if others had opinions, it was useless.

However, Chen Siyuan also took this into consideration. The Light Animation Department was destined to be unprofitable for a long time.

Others can't see the future like he can, so it's easy to create a gap.

So Chen Siyuan also held a special meeting for the executives of Guangxian.

The Light Media Animation Department is a department that Chen Siyuan is planning for the future. Although it is affiliated with Light Media, it is directly under Chen Siyuan!
All expenses of the Light Animation Department, including possible future earnings, are listed separately.

In other words, this newly established department is simply under Light Media, and all other matters have nothing to do with Light Media.

If Chen Siyuan wasn't afraid that his animation would not be attractive enough to attract Jiaozi, he could have set up an independent animation company.

It can be said that Chen Siyuan went to so much trouble to do all this just for dumplings!

Conference Room No. 3 of Light Media is filled with "animation production talents" who have gathered in Beijing from all over the country.

This circle is very small, and anyone in this industry has basically heard of each other.

So while waiting, they also imagined the future with each other.

For them, being recruited by a leading domestic entertainment and media company is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Of course, there are some people who don’t fit in among these people, and one of them is Jiaozi.

After all, what Jiaozi learned in school and what he learned after graduation had nothing to do with animation production.

Facing these "predecessors" in the animation production industry, Jiaozi was a little nervous.

Just then Chen Siyuan came to the conference room with his secretary Li Xiaoran.

Chen Siyuan sat down at the front.

Li Xiaoran put a large stack of white paper aside.

After taking a quick look around, Chen Siyuan felt relieved when he saw Jiaozi sitting in the corner.

"Hello everyone, first of all, welcome to the animation department of Enlight Media!"

Who is Chen Siyuan?

After these people joined Light Media, they were briefed on human resources.

Chen Siyuan is not only the boss of Enlight Media, but also the founder of Enlight Media!
According to the personnel department, they joined the animation department of Light Media, which means they joined the Royal Guard!

Therefore, Chen Siyuan's welcome speech was greeted with applause from everyone present.

Everyone looked at Chen Siyuan with anticipation in their eyes!
Working in animation production in the country is destined to be lonely and not understood by many people.

After all, even the Shanghai Animation Film Studio, which produced the world-shaking "Havoc in Heaven," has lost its glory. "First, I want to ask you a question: Do you like animated films?"

As Chen Siyuan spoke, he was looking at Jiaozi, who looked very excited.

"like!"

Everyone shouted at the top of their lungs!
Chen Siyuan nodded in satisfaction. "Our country's film industry development lags behind the rest of the world, but we once had a glorious past in animated films. What we need to do now is to regain that glory!"

"Whether we admit it or not, the Hollywood film industry is far ahead, and this includes animated films!"

"Can you believe it? Finding Nemo, the animated film produced by Pixar and released by Disney, has already grossed $8 million worldwide!"

"A lot? A lot! But I believe that in the future our own animated films will also break $8 million at the box office, and may even double that!"

Chen Siyuan continued to mobilize people on this issue.

China has no shortage of animation talent.

Jiaozi, who originally became the flagship of Chinese animated films, was not even a professional animator.

However, with the decline of Shanghai Animation Film Studio, China's animated films have lost their vitality.

Being pulled further and further away by Hollywood.

Chinese animators have also lost their confidence.

"As the times evolve, our philosophy of making animated films must also evolve. What kind of animated films do our audiences want to see? This is what we need to think about."

"Animated films are not like live-action films. Three years of hard work is the norm. If we can't grasp the pulse, how many three years can we waste?"

Faced with Chen Siyuan's questions, many people fell into deep thought.

"Compared to those so-called big IPs of foreign animated films, our country has a huge advantage. Our myths and legends are the real big IPs!"

"Now I'm going to give you a test. I want to make an animated film with Nezha as the theme. I urgently need concept drawings of Nezha and Taiyi Zhenren. You should design sketches of these two characters right now."

Chen Siyuan suddenly announced the exam.

Li Xiaoran immediately distributed the white paper and pencils that he had prepared long ago to everyone.

"What I need is the Nezha and Taiyi Zhenren deep within you, so don't pay attention to how others draw! I'm in the meeting room next door. When anyone of you finishes drawing, come find me!"

After Chen Siyuan finished speaking, he and Li Xiaoran left the house.

"Boss, are you really going to make a Nezha animated movie?"

Li Xiaoran asked curiously.

Chen Siyuan shook his head. "That's just my opinion. It depends on whether they can do it or not!"

"I feel that our market foundation is not strong enough. It's easy to lose money on animated films right now, and that would be very harmful to animation practitioners."

Li Xiaoran looked at Chen Siyuan and said.

Chen Siyuan didn't expect that Li Xiaoran was so aware!

Li Xiaoran has indeed grown since she became Chen Siyuan's secretary!
"You're absolutely right! But this doesn't conflict with what I'm doing now. As I just told them, it's normal to spend three years polishing a sword before making an animated film. Before that, you have to decide what material the sword will be made of, what style it will be, and most importantly, what kind of sword the audience will like. All of this takes time."

Li Xiaoran nodded. She still believed in Chen Siyuan. After all, everything Chen Siyuan did was right since she met him.

She was also a little curious about what kind of Nezha and Taiyi Zhenren the people Chen Siyuan recruited would draw.

Maybe some people already had ideas and drafts, so in about half an hour, someone brought their work over.

Nezha and Taiyi Zhenren come alive on the paper!
