Best wishes for animation production - #502 - Chapter 498 surprise~
“Thank you for your support, we will arrange it later…I understand, it will be broadcast, I am doing it, I really didn’t lie to you.”
Gu Xue responded briefly.
Then regardless of the person on the other end of the phone shouting seven, seven, he hung up the phone.
moment.
The world is quiet.
The feeling of being surrounded by Qi Ye and Qi Jiang finally disappeared…
What is this all about…
Gu Xue rubbed her temples, exhaled, looked at Yu Jingyao standing aside, and suddenly said: “Unplug the phone cord.”
Yu Jingyao was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly…
Seems to feel the same way.
Since receiving the first transoceanic call to urge for updates, the calls have not stopped in the next two days… Yujing Yao couldn’t understand what was being said on the other side, and most people in the studio couldn’t understand either. Not that much time.
In the end, Gu Xue, the boss, was forced to go online and answer the phone.
Gu Xue’s English is actually not very good, but thanks to Gu Xiao, daily communication is okay.
When Gu Xue first received the call from across the ocean, she was actually quite curious.
Also willing to communicate.
But all this quickly disappeared in the sound of seven repeated over and over again like the repeater opposite.
Now Gu Xue regrets that she left the studio’s contact information when crowdfunding “Little Witch Academia: Magic Parade”.
But fortunately, there is a remedy now.
Snap!
Gu Xue unplugged the phone cord, threw it away, and clapped her hands.
“You’re crazy. There’s nothing like a repeater to remind you of updates.”
puff.
Yu Jingyao stretched out her hand and pinched her boss’s shoulder, and couldn’t help laughing and said, “Thank you for your hard work.”
“Unplugging the phone line is not a long-term solution. After all, we still need to contact the outside world.” Gu Xue sighed, “Let’s release the eighth episode. Anyway, it is only two days away from the expected release time, so upload it first.”
“good.”
Yu Jingyao nodded and agreed without hesitation. She had already had this idea, and the repeater reminder was too scary.
but……
Yu Jingyao thought for a while, looked at Gu Xue, and asked with some worry: “Are you sure that after the seventh episode is released, they won’t call to repeat eight…”
“…”
Gu Xue was silent for a moment and said speechlessly: “As long as it’s not seven or ‘Thank you Taylor’…”
“ah?”
“Nothing, I’m going out.”
“Oh…” Yu Jingyao responded subconsciously, and then suddenly thought of something, “Hey, is the animated movie ready yet?”
“The film is complete, final inspection.”
“It’s so fast.” Yu Jingyao couldn’t help but sigh.
“Well… let’s go.”
Gu Xue responded casually, took out her phone and checked the time, waved her hand, and walked quickly to the studio exit.
At the exit, Chisa Mihara had been waiting for her for a long time.
During this period, there were relatively few opportunities for Gu Xue and Miss Mihara to meet. The outsourcing of “Attack on Titan” was a top priority. The latter has been the main hub for negotiations between the production team and the outsourcing party since the animation started. busy.
And Gu Xue is the supervisor.
no way.
Today is a rare opportunity.
Gu Xue made an appointment yesterday to let Chisa Mihara spend the day with her.
In addition to the new animated movie, she also wanted to buy some clothes and pajamas – Gu Rou couldn’t be trusted at all, and Gu Xue felt that she could only rely on herself for this matter.
However, although Gu Xue had a good plan, he casually watched the animated movie V and then went shopping.
But when it came to actual implementation, the first step ran into trouble—to be precise, the plan went bankrupt as soon as it stepped out of YUKI Studio.
Because she and Miss Mihara just happened to bump into Lyons and John who were visiting YUKI studio when they went out.
When Gu Xue saw the two of them,
The two of them were taking deep breaths in the elevator…
“…Are you holding any mysterious ceremony?”
Gu Xue stood outside the elevator door, looking at the two people who were raising their heads, puffing out their chests, and glaring with their nostrils…very curious.
In the elevator, Lyons and John also saw Gu Xue. They quickly stopped taking a deep, embarrassing breath and said awkwardly: “Are you going out? Gu Xue is supervising.”
“It depends.”
Gu Xue looked at the two of them.
At this moment, her eyes seemed to be looking at two walking piles of new work budgets: “I actually don’t have to go out.”
Lyons: “…”
…
In the end, Gu Xue didn’t go out immediately. There was no rush about the animated movie for the time being.
Anyway, the animated movie is finished, and it doesn’t have legs, so it doesn’t matter if it’s a little later.
Lyons and John have long legs.
Gu Xue invited Lyons and John to the conference room.
“So, what do you two want from me?”
After both parties sat down, Gu Xue got to the topic directly.
“Forehead……”
Lyons didn’t know what to say for a moment.
John wanted to talk.
But he was interrupted by Gu Xue’s next words.
“I thought that “Monster” was off the air, and during this period the two of them would be promoting Kei Tsuda at 3.C PICTURE.”
“…”
As soon as these words came out.
Even though she knew that Gu Xue did not mean any malice or ridicule.
Both Lyons and John’s expressions changed.
What a shame!
The two of them smiled bitterly.
Lyons: “Give up.”
John: “It’s hopeless.”
“I don’t understand.”
“I don’t want to understand.”
“Narita Kei can’t do it.”
“Neither can animation.”
“Wait to die.”
“Wait to die.”
The two of them were talking like cross talk, you said something to me.
What stands out is that he gives up on himself.
Gu Xue was a little surprised, but she quickly realized what she was doing and said amusedly: “So, you came to me just to complain?”
Lyons took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said: “No, Supervisor Gu Xue, you should know our purpose, right? Let me tell you directly, I was sorry at the time, we made the wrong choice… Now, we really sincerely want to buy the Giant overseas copyright.”
Gu Xue’s eyes lit up, “Okay.”
“Don’t refuse in a hurry…ah?”
Lyons and John looked at Gu Xue with wide eyes.
“Are you willing to sell it to us? You are so… wrong, we gave up on your plan at the beginning!”
When John got excited, he almost said something like ‘You are so vindictive’ – but luckily he held it back in the end.
“That’s your freedom. I have no reason to hate you for this. Besides, selling copyright now is a win-win situation. Why don’t I agree?”
Gu Xue smiled and didn’t look aggressive at all.
Lyons and John seemed to see angels.
Of course, I also saw the hope of promotion…
“but.”
Gu Xue suddenly changed the topic.
The soft light disappears!
“It is okay to sell the copyright, but there is a prerequisite that you need to know – the copyright of the giant you want to buy is bound to a TV animation that is being planned by my studio…”
“No problem! Buy it!”
Lyons interrupted Gu Xue directly, so heroic!
He was so arrogant that he even forgot the investment rules just set by Netflix…
It seemed that he had great confidence in Gu Xue.
Gu Xue was speechless: “Don’t worry, I haven’t finished talking yet. The TV animation currently being planned by my studio, the supervisor… is not me.”
“……ah?”
Lyons was like a deflated ball in an instant, his pride leaking out…
“Actually, Netflix has new regulations…” John on the side quickly chimed in.
“Wait, don’t keep interrupting me.”
Gu Xue waved her hand towards John, exhaled, and said: “I know your new Netflix regulations, I have known about them a long time ago, and I also know that it is a bit difficult for you to invest in the experimental works of the new supervisor. But please believe in our studio, I don’t intend to break the rules, the animation will be finished first.”
John and Lyons breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
That’s easy to do.
Gu Xue spread her hands and asked, “That’s the situation. Are you still interested?” “Very interested!”
“Then let’s talk about the price…but before that.”
Gu Xue smiled slyly: “My studio… also has the rights to broadcast an animated film overseas. Are you interested? If so, we can discuss it together to avoid trouble later.”
“Animated movie?”
Lyons was a little surprised.
“Um.”
“Are you the supervisor?”
“Not only is I the director, but the main creators are all the original members of Giant!”
Gu Xue’s face didn’t turn red, and her heart didn’t beat. She was the only one who created the show, so she wasn’t part of the original cast…
“Really?” Lyons’ eyes widened.
“Really. Moreover, this animated movie has been completed. I just went out to edit the V of this animated movie.”
“Of course, I know that animated movies are not giants. If you can’t make up your mind right now, you might as well go to the editing studio with me later. After watching this animated movie, it’s not too late to make a decision.”
Lyons was a little excited: “Is it really possible?”
John had a similar expression.
“Of course… By the way, I remember the story background of “Monster” is the Pacific Ocean, right? You two are monster lovers, right?”
Gu Xue looked at the two excited people and suddenly showed a malicious smile.
“…”
Seeing Gu Xue’s smile.
John was startled and calmed down a little.
For some reason, he suddenly panicked.
Lyons also noticed something was wrong and asked in a low voice: “Supervisor Gu Xue, I take the liberty of asking, what is the name of the animated movie…?”
“”Pacific Rim”.”
Gu Xue showed a bright smile, said the name of the movie, then paused and added another sentence.
“The main title is Pacific Rim, but in addition to that, the movie also has a subtitle – Monsters.”
“So the full name of this animated movie is “Pacific Rim: Monsters.”
“surprise~”
Lyons u0026 John: “…”
