Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 359 Alliance
The details presented in Lu Xuan's storyboard allowed Chen Feiyu to directly replicate them in the animated film.
No modifications were needed; in fact, any changes he made might ruin the aesthetic appeal of the artwork.
This was a novel experience for Chen Feiyu.
Previously, Chen Feiyu had been the chief director of the Fine Arts Film Studio, an absolute authority within its walls.
Back then, no one could surpass his creations.
He alone could critique others, while no one could ever outdo him.
This had become ingrained in his very being.
It was the pride he took in being the chief director.
But today, someone had appeared before him, presenting a script created in just two weeks, and showing him that there were always people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens.
This feeling was unprecedented!
Especially the time-transcending love story told in Lu Xuan's script, which he considered a stroke of genius!
No animated film in the country, or even the world, had ever told such a story!
Nor had there been such imaginative ideas.
Lu Xuan's ability to come up with such an idea and create it in two weeks had completely won him over.
Chen Feiyu looked at Lu Xuan and stammered, "Director... Director Lu."
"I really like your animated script. I can hardly believe you created it in two weeks."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "It's nothing. I've been a film director for a while and I'm used to drawing storyboards."
"So, master one method and you master all. Transferring those skills to animated film storyboarding was quite easy for me."
Chen Feiyu sighed, shaking his head. "Director Lu, you probably don't realize what your talent means. But for me, it's like seeing God descend to Earth."
"I consider myself a genius in the animation world, perhaps even a once-in-a-century talent."
"And probably no one would dare to contradict me."
"Because everyone in the domestic animation industry is my underling. Many companies are still continuing the ideas I pioneered years ago in their animation creations."
"But after seeing you, I feel like the gap between us is too big."
"Whether it's the animated script or the storyboards you've drawn, I really can't reach your level."
Chen Feiyu paused, looking at Lu Xuan with sincere eyes. "Director Lu, your animated script doesn't need any modifications from me."
"I just need to operate your company's existing equipment well, add things according to a fixed pattern, and I can create a relatively perfect animation."
Chen Feiyu waved his hand excitedly. "I can't write such an animation!"
"The Hua country traditional culture and local customs contained in this animation are simply too ingenious."
Chen Feiyu suddenly felt that his worldview had been shaken and didn't know how to express the shock in his heart.
Because the *Your Name* that Lu Xuan took out was a revised version.
He had added many Hua country local customs and Hua country's own traditional culture.
These additions greatly increased the weight of the whole story.
Moreover, Lu Xuan connected the film with certain mythological stories, which immediately resonated with Chen Feiyu, who was from Hua country.
Lu Xuan looked at the excited Chen Feiyu and comforted him, "Don't be so anxious. There are still many points that need your improvement."
"Because this is just a script, and you still need to operate it in production."
"Especially the appearance, personality, and behavior of the protagonists are all difficult points."
"How to show the characteristics of their personality is something you need to solve yourself."
"This is your irreplaceable point."
"Moreover, our company's animation department really lacks talents like you so far."
"Except for you, we have not selected anyone who meets our goals to take over the banner of animation production."
"This first film is just a means for me to open up the animation market, but how to cultivate the animation market in the future still needs you to do it yourself."
"This is a heavy burden, and you don't want Xuan Yao to become unknown again after the first film is released, right?"
Chen Feiyu shook his head, met Chen Lei's firm gaze, and felt a little emotional.
Just now, he heard Chen Lei say that this film could break the current animation box office champion.
At that time, he still didn't quite believe it.
But now it seems that Lu Xuan's words are actually a bit conservative.
I am afraid that the Hua country film market can no longer accommodate this animated film, and it can also gain many fans by promoting it to the world.
Chen Feiyu felt that his previous thinking was a little ridiculous.
A genius like Lu Xuan doesn't go into the animation field purely because the animation field can't well interpret his talent.
That field is too small.
If Lu Xuan really cultivated the field of animation, it would be a dimensionality reduction blow to all their animation practitioners.
Chen Feiyu took a deep breath and said, "Director Lu, I didn't understand what you meant before, but now I have woken up."
"Being able to work under you is the luckiest thing in my life."
"Even if I can learn a little bit of knowledge from you, it will be a huge improvement for me."
"Thank you very much, Director Lu, for providing me with such an opportunity."
"Then can I start working tomorrow?"
The change in Chen Feiyu's attitude made Lu Xuan laugh.
"It's okay, it's up to you when you want to start working."
"If you want to rest for a while, you can. Our animation department still needs you to operate now."
"You need to select the specific candidates. When you arrive at the company, someone will contact you for docking."
Chen Feiyu said excitedly, "Director Lu, I can start working tomorrow!"
"I have been idle for a long time, and wasting it again is a waste of life."
Lu Xuan saw that Chen Feiyu was so excited and said, "Your information has been entered into the company's system on the day you left. You can now enter and exit freely."
