Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

The next morning, when the post-production team from the Land of Light animation studio arrived at the company.

Each person's workstation had several bags of snacks sent by fans, with a sticky note attached to each package.

"For Agul."

The note also included a small note: Please pass this on to Fujimiya and tell him to stop training his chest muscles and focus on improving his ability to withstand blows.

The team leader took a picture of the note and posted it in the work group, and replied...

"Ha ha ha ha"

"Fujimiya appears, and the powerful figure exits and is carried away."

On social media, the discussion surrounding the fifth episode has completely transcended the realm of an animated series, evolving into a nationwide cultural phenomenon.

The hashtag #Agul's Human Form Fujimiya Hiroya# has surpassed 2 billion views.

An anonymous fan spontaneously compiled a long analysis of the character Hiroya Fujimiya, covering everything from his entrance scenes, the rhythm of his lines, the background music arrangement, to the color scheme comparison between him and Gaia.

I analyzed it from every possible angle.

This long article was shared more than 100,000 times in one day, and the most popular comment was...

"Thank you for your analysis, sister. After reading your article, I'm even more certain of one thing: when Fujimiya was spouting those cringeworthy lines on the beach, he was the coolest guy in the whole show."

However, there are even more outrageous examples.

A netizen who works at a certain aerospace research institute shared his and his colleagues' research results on a social media platform.

Using their spare time, they meticulously reconstructed the details of the energy flow analysis that Fujimiya had marked on each poster, frame by frame, based on footage of the Gaia poster wall that Fujimiya had put up in the basement.

Then, the energy release model of Agul's ultimate move "Clearer" was deduced.

I wrote an article titled "Physical Feasibility Analysis of Agul's Ultimate Technique".

The article includes an introduction, formulas, and simulation diagrams.

The conclusion on the last page.

"It is theoretically feasible to instantly evaporate a target mainly composed of seawater under the concentrated release of high-density photon energy, but in practice, the problems of energy decay and heat diffusion need to be solved."

The article was shared more than 200,000 times in one day.

Later, when asked about his opinion on this in an interview, Yang Qian paused for a few seconds and then said something.

"Perhaps they're calculating in the right direction."

That morning, Yang Qian was sitting in her office reviewing the production progress report for "Ultraman Mebius".

Outside the window, City A has entered the hottest season of the year, but inside the office it remains a constant 24 degrees Celsius.

When Su Xiaoran pushed open the door, she was carrying a stack of documents in her hands, as usual.

"Director Yang, Li Mugo is here."

Yang Qian raised her eyebrows.

"Which Li Mugo?"

"Li Mugo, the one who makes musicals."

Su Xiaoran paused for a moment, "The youngest producer in the Chinese musical theater industry, generally speaking, he personally visits people for the same thing."

Yang Qian closed the progress report, picked up her teacup, and took a sip. "Please let him in."

Yang Qian had heard of Li Mugo, but had never met him in person.

Thirty-one years old, a graduate of the Beijing Academy of Drama, he led a team of less than twenty people to create his first original musical ten years ago.

On the opening day, the theater was less than half full, but he did not lay off anyone.

They changed the subject matter and continued making the film. The second film premiered to a full house, the third film toured the whole country, and the fifth film went overseas to Singapore and Australia.

From being virtually unknown to having tickets in high demand, his footprints are on every step of the way in the Chinese musical theater market.

Yang Qian has always respected capable people, without exception.

Su Xiaoran pushed open the office door.

Li Mugo, who was slender, walked into the office wearing a black polo shirt without any logo.

When he sat down, Yang Qian noticed that his hands, which were on his knees, tightened slightly.

That's not the subtle gesture a seasoned negotiator should make.

"Director Yang, I've heard so much about you."

Li Mugo's opening remarks were short.

"Director Li, you're too kind. I saw your recent war-themed musical, which was still full at the Penguin Theatre after a month."

"In terms of achieving this level of success in the niche field of musicals, the Land of Light can't compare to you."

Li Mugo tightened his grip on his knees for the second time.

He was silent for a moment.

He was analyzing whether Yang Qian's words were just polite small talk or whether she had genuinely paid attention to his work.

After Yang Qian provided a definite schedule, he chose to believe her.

Therefore, Li Mugo decided to get straight to the point.

"Director Yang, to be honest, I'm here today for only one thing."

"The musical 'Love Live'".

After saying that, he paused for a moment, "If you're willing to grant me the rights, I'll be the producer and lead the team myself."

"As for the terms, the licensing fee will come from the net profit and will be shared according to the box office tiers."

"But I only have one request—"

Li Mugo suddenly stood up and took a file bag from his briefcase.

"Director Yang, I've finished the first draft of the script, the scene breakdown, the vocal coordination schedule, and the venue evaluation reports for the first round of tour cities."

He rested his hands on the desk, leaning slightly forward.

Yang Qian noticed the dark circles under his eyes, indicating that he had obviously stayed up all night.

"You can interpret this as my plan; my sincerity and strength are all there."

"You just need to nod, and you don't need to worry about the rest."

The office was silent for a full three seconds.

Yang Qian picked up the file bag and pulled out a thick stack of printing papers.

He flipped directly to a page in the middle, and looking at the dense musical notes and handwritten annotations on the manuscript, he suddenly frowned.

"If you insist on using this transition method, then the starting note has to be lowered by a whole tone, or you can directly delete the key change in the interlude and stick to one key until you reach section B and then re-enter F major."

Li Mugo's pupils dilated slightly.

He thought Yang Qian was going to bring up restrictive clauses, discuss cost sharing, and talk about the boundaries of IP protection.

Therefore, he was well prepared to answer a businessman's question.

Then he threw back a music theory analysis about the transition from F major to G major.

He suddenly realized that the other person was discussing creative details with him.

Li Mugo: "But you are the boss of the Land of Light."

He was clearly questioning Yang Qian's musical abilities.

"I'm also Ah Guang."

Miriam Yeung picked up her teacup and took a sip. "I used to work in music."

Su Xiaoran couldn't help but roll her eyes.

He did more than just music; he composed soundtracks and character songs for all the early projects of Land of Light, from the first studio album to all the new arrangements for later concerts.

Director Yang participated in all of them.

Li Mugo sat back down in his chair, took a pen out of his pocket, randomly picked a blank sheet of printing paper from Yang Qian's desk, and began to draw section lines.

He suddenly stopped drawing halfway through, looked up at Yang Qian, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips.

"When I came here, Lao Wang advised me not to have too high hopes."

"He said the Land of Light is now incredibly wealthy and powerful, with Ultraman movies, live concerts, and what's that... supermarket?"

"Your project schedule is already full, licensing a musical wouldn't even be considered icing on the cake for you."

Yang Qian didn't reply, but simply picked up her teacup and took another sip.

He knew who the "Old Wang" Li Mugo was talking about was.

Wang Mingyuan, a veteran in the film and television industry, was one of the investors in Li Mugo's first musical.

"But after thinking it over, I decided to come anyway."

Li Mugo finished drawing the last accent mark and snapped the pen cap shut.

"Director Yang, to be honest, I really love the Love Live! franchise, ever since the first season!"

Yang Qian raised an eyebrow?

like?

"I was in Japan when the first season aired. That year, Japan's Anime Music Week featured idol musicals as a special project."

"I brought an original musical to the festival, and after the screening, my colleagues dragged me to watch two episodes."

Li Mugo's voice was calm.

"I think I can see the answer to whether China can produce a truly meaningful anime-style musical in the next decade."

He paused.

"But I didn't come to see you then because I felt the timing wasn't right."

"An IP needs a complete narrative cycle to carry the narrative weight of a musical."

Yang Qian suddenly laughed.

"So, after only two episodes of the second season, you showed up in my office with the complete plan."

Li Mugo further explained.

"In a standard musical, the vocal portion is over sixty minutes, and the material for the first season doesn't fully cover that framework."

"But when the second season started, the number of vocal segments doubled, and the main storyline expanded from a simple narrative of team building to themes of growth and farewell."

He then pulled out a folded piece of paper from his briefcase and unfolded it.

It was his design for the three-act segmentation.

The first act is the beginning, the second is growth, and the third is farewell.

The structure is clear, and the emotional curve is complete.

Yang Qian picked up the paper, looked at it carefully for a long time, and then spoke.

"After the Bird's Nest performance, I'll give you the first rehearsal schedule."

"However, I need the original voice actors to do the voice acting and performances, and you can decide on the vocal music coordination."

"But I need to hear all the original song arrangements in person at the recording studio before I can sign them."

Li Mugo breathed a sigh of relief; he had finally obtained the ticket he had wanted most.

"Also... I have another request."

Yang Qian glanced at Li Mugo.

"Director Yang, please speak."

Li Mugo's heart tightened. Could it be that Director Yang had changed his mind?

Yang Qian smiled slightly.

"Would you like to do an Ultraman stage play?"

"If Director Li is willing to join the Land of Light, I can also entrust the Ultraman stage play to you."

Li Mugo felt dizzy and disoriented.

An Ultraman stage play? This is just too much...

"Director Yang, I think..."

Li Mugo hesitated, worried that he would ruin the IP.

"To do it, or not to do it?"

Yang Qian stared straight into Li Mugo's eyes...

Three seconds later, Li Mugo gritted his teeth and said, "I'll do it! I'll do it!"

"Well then, welcome to the Land of Light~"

Miriam Yeung: Director, please add one to your list!
