They don't actually think I like them, do they?

"I am."

Not far away, a man wearing square-framed glasses stood up from his workstation, his refined face full of impatience.

The man in the box walked up to Lin Han, glanced at him sideways, and spoke with a hint of arrogance.

"Coffee teacher, what questions do you have?"

Seeing that the original artist had made a move, everyone else felt a sense of unease.

Oh no, this is a huge problem!

Square Man, formerly an animator at SP Animation Company, has been working in Bilibili's animation department for seven years, handling the production of more than ten animations. He is extremely experienced and is known for his bad temper.

Anyone who might delay or hinder his work is bound to be subjected to his verbal abuse.

Even the person in charge, Ms. Hanako, is no exception.

That's why Hanako kept refuting Xu Hui from the perspective of the original artist, just to avoid dragging this big Buddha into it.

Who knew that Coffee Sauce would be so bold as to specifically request the original artist!

This is definitely going to be a big problem!

Hanako could only pray silently that both sides would be more amicable, especially since the illustrator's expression so clearly showed displeasure. Coffee Sauce and his friend tried to read the room...

"What kind of hook is this?" Xu Hui asked, pointing at the computer screen.

The man in the square frame barely suppressed his anger.

"I have over ten years of experience working on original artwork, and I know what kind of characters are more popular with audiences..."

"I asked you what kind of hook you drew?" Xu Hui suspected the square-framed man hadn't heard him clearly, so he waved his hand in front of the square-framed man's eyes.

"This is the perfect image for the female lead! What are you yelling about?!" The square-framed man got angry.

One loud shout silenced everyone.

Colleagues never expected that such words would come out of the mouth of the original artist.

At this point, the man in the square frame was so angry that he had lost his mind.

He felt insulted!

As a veteran concept artist, this was the first time he had been pointed at like that and called out to his face repeatedly.

He was already incredibly frustrated by the work progress, and now, suddenly, the original author, who looked at least ten years younger than him, came over and started pointing fingers at him!

As an original artist, his pride could not tolerate such an insult!

In his eyes, Lin Han was just a brat who wrote novels and knew nothing about animation.

Now you're making me come over like a student who's done something wrong, bowing my head and accepting instruction?

What a joke! !

"Anxious."

Xu Hui pointed at him, then turned to Lin Han and smiled.

"????"

The man in the box suddenly felt his blood pressure spike, and he was about to explode when Lin Han coughed twice and said to Xu Hui,

"Brother Hui, this is going too far. This is the original artist."

After saying that, Lin Han turned around and addressed the man in the square frame.

"Artist, can this character design be changed? My Kasumigaoka isn't like this."

Lin Han finally blurted it out.

"Change it? Are you kidding me? I've already completed a third of the original artwork. Changing the character design now is practically the same as scrapping everything and redrawing it all from scratch!"

"Isn't this because you didn't show me the character designs from the beginning?" Lin Han said.

"It's not that I'm deliberately picking a fight, but if I had seen this character's persona from the beginning, I definitely wouldn't have allowed it."

Many people were speechless upon hearing this.

In this matter, the production team is indeed in the wrong.

I originally intended to use this method to silence Coffee Sauce, but who knew Coffee Sauce was even more shameless. Knowing that he had no decision-making power, he still dared to suggest that the production team redraw the design. I really don't know if he's naive or deliberately trying to be the center of attention!

A smile gradually appeared on Hanako's face.

The man in the square frame shook his head helplessly.

His arrogance prevented him from using copyright issues to pressure the coffee sauce company, but he still wanted to teach this little kid a lesson.

I accidentally wrote a wildly popular novel, and now I want to pontificate about other industries!

"Coffee Teacher, animation is not as simple as you think; it's different from a novel."

"Leave the professional work to the professionals. The character I drew, whether it suits your aesthetic or not, is the most popular art style on the market right now!"

“But isn’t the most important thing in an animated adaptation to stay true to the original work?” Xu Hui interjected from the side.

"Since it's an adaptation, these modifications are necessary!"

"Damn it, all you do is mess around with Jill! Can't you just stick to the original story?! Don't you have any idea who the audience is watching for? Are there any anime like this that are as popular as the Saekano novel?? And you're questioning the original author? You're just a lousy artist, you don't know anything about the audience!"

Xu Hui's series of attacks left everyone speechless with shock.

Hanako's mind has stopped thinking.

That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.

This is no longer just a simple conflict between the original author and the animation production team.

That's like the entire Bilibili animation platform being humiliated!

An 18-year-old, inexperienced young man wrote a novel and dared to criticize the elites of the animation industry.

Still in the Bilibili building, the production team's home turf!

Now, even if we tear off the mask and kick them out, it won't be enough to appease public anger.

We need to make them lose face properly and get our revenge.

"Okay, Coffee Teacher."

Hanako restrained the square-framed man who was on the verge of exploding and said to Lin Han,

"Since you insist on your own ideas, find an animator yourself and guide them step by step to draw a character design that you think matches your vision. But it has to be quick, the animation schedule can't be delayed, let's do it today. We have the best animation team here, let everyone give their evaluation."

This is deliberately making things difficult for Lin Han.

Putting aside the question of finding an illustrator today, Lin Han, as a novelist, could offer his "evaluation," but asking him to "how it should be drawn" was pure fantasy.

Hanako's actions were also meant to let the young coffee sauce know that you shouldn't try to take advantage of things that aren't your domain!

Upon hearing this, Xu Hui, who was standing to the side, began to look troubled.

Despite all the criticism and insults, he couldn't give a specific plan on how to draw it without the relevant knowledge.

But his drawing really isn't good!

Just because you don't know how to make a refrigerator doesn't mean you can't review it, right?!

"No need for that, I'll draw it."

Lin Han waved his hand and addressed the production team.

"Watch well and study hard!"

010. This is truly my senior!

Upon hearing this, everyone in the office was stunned.

"What the hell??"

Did I hear that right?

Coffee Sauce wants to draw her own character designs?!

Hanako's mind started to doubt itself. He originally thought it was outrageous enough that an 18-year-old boy had written a super popular light novel, but now he actually had to draw it himself.

It's fake, so obviously fake!

"puff......"

The man in the square frame was taken aback for a moment, then immediately lost his composure.

"Ha ha ha ha."

The man in the square frame burst into laughter.

This was the first time everyone had seen the usually serious animator smile like that.

"You? You're going to draw it yourself??"

The man in the square frame pointed at Lin Han, but before he could finish speaking, he couldn't help but continue laughing while clutching his stomach.

He truly didn't expect that his usually tedious job of receiving authors would turn into such a delightful experience.

When you realize that the person who insulted you isn't very bright, you stop feeling insulted and see it all as a joke.

If the man in the square frame had at least a sliver of respect for the original author when he saw the boy, he now completely sees the kid as a source of amusement.

"Little friend, do you know what you're saying? If you're drawing stick figures, we don't have that much time to play with you here."

Even Xu Hui was stunned by Lin Han's sudden words.

He quickly grabbed Lin Han's hand and whispered,

"President Lin, if it's not our area of ​​expertise, don't try to act all high and mighty!"

"It's just drawing, right? Anyone with hands can do it!"

Lin Han spoke loudly, as if wanting everyone in the office to hear.

"Bring me the drawing board. I'll draw the character designs for you now. If you don't like them, I won't say another word about the production."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, the man in the square frame readily agreed without hesitation.

You asked for this!

It can both embarrass the coffee sauce in public and make it obediently shut its mouth.

How could we miss such an opportunity?!

Just then, Hanako quickly grabbed the square-framed man's arm and whispered,

"Coffee Teacher is, after all, the original author; let's not embarrass him too much..."

"He asked for it!"

The man in the square frame widened his eyes and said fiercely.

The man in the square frame must now make up for the insults he received earlier, tenfold!

Then he turned around and shouted,

"Xiao Wang, bring me my drawing board!"

"It's all over, it's all over..."

At this moment, Xu Hui could only be described as wanting to cry but having no tears left.

As Lin Han's closest person, how could he not know Lin Han's painting skills?

While it's not fair to say they're completely ignorant, they're certainly clueless.

This guy can't draw at all!

He would rather believe that Lin Han used the paint sprayed from Niu Niu to draw a picture of a tiger descending a mountain on the computer screen than believe that Lin Han could actually draw.

Xu Hui was filled with deep regret.

Because the harshest and most shameless things just now were all said by him!

This is fucking deadly!
