Chapter 54
Chapter 54 .Eve before the broadcast
“…Well, just now, it was contributed by the audience nicknamed the animation general. Thank you for the continuous letter from the animation general.”
A male voice echoed in the car. As soon as his voice fell, another lovely female voice jumped out.
“However, as stated in the letter, after the bombing of the October animations in the fall, the animations for the next January animations are indeed not eye-catching enough.”
“I like to save these animations. After they are over, I watch them all in one go.”
“Aren’t you afraid of being spoiled by doing this? For example, in the last episode of “Steel Mage”…”
“Ah, stop, stop, I was spoiled, it doesn’t matter, the audience who are listening to the show are still looking forward to the plot!”
“Sorry, sorry, let’s not talk about the topic of spoilers, Mr. Amu, what is the January animation you are most looking forward to?”
“Well, although “The Hunter of Gourmet” seems to be very interesting and “Legend of Seven Heroes” is well-made, but I want to recommend it, this is the animation “Soul Eater: Zero” adapted from comics!”
Hearing the male voice on the radio, the young executive producer Gao Senmiao withdrew his eyes from the late-night snack stall outside the window, looked at the radio in the car, and increased the voice a bit.
“It’s the popular work serialized in “Monthly Shonen Frontline”, right.”
“That’s it, we also invited the main voice actors of the work today!”
Even though he knew that this was a commercial flattery that had been spent on propaganda, Gao Senmiao still raised his mouth slightly when he heard these words.
“Hello everyone, I am Zhao Zhicheng who voiced Chen Guanshi in “Soul Eater: Zero”.” “I am Wang Ying who voiced Xia Moran.”
Two distinctive voices of a man and a woman sounded on the radio.
“Oh, I’m so sorry, I didn’t pay the performance fee and asked you to come here specially.”
“No, no, no trouble.” “So there is no performance fee?”
After the two different reactions, Zhao Zhicheng spoke first.
“In fact, today I came to promote the upcoming “Soul Eater: Zero”!”
“Ah, so to speak, what kind of story is “Soul Eater: Zero” telling?”
“Well, it’s the story of everyone in the Science Exterminating Research Center who used scientific methods to exterminate evil spirits, working together to eliminate ghosts, no more.”
Wang Ying’s lively voice appeared, making the atmosphere happy.
The content of the broadcast continued, but Gao Senmiao’s attention had shifted to the front, the red light turned green, she stepped on the accelerator and drove forward, with small expectations in her heart.
As Xu Rui said, the animation of “Soul Eater: Zero” has been fraudulent from production to promotion. Even if you participate in related activities, it is also attended by the voice actor who led the lunch in the first episode. Gao Senmiao just started to know It was unbelievable at the time of this plan, but now that the animation is ready to be broadcast, I subconsciously look forward to the audience’s reaction.
The new year has come. In January, Ningjiang was bleak and cold. A few heavy snowfalls shrouded the entire city in the real winter cold. Gao Senmiao could even exhale white breath while sitting in the car.
At half past nine in the evening, the roads in Ningjiang were still slightly busy. Gao Senmiao took the Ningjiang Expressway and soon came to a residential area.
After registering at the doorman, she drove skillfully down to a building, rang the doorbell, and took the elevator to the eighth floor.
Ding Dong Ding Dong——
There was a noise in the door, and it took two minutes before the heavy anti-theft door was opened.
“Hello, I am Gao Senmiao who is here to collect the director’s draft for the eleventh episode.”
Gao Senmiao greeted with a vigorous voice. The man who opened the door had thick dark circles under his eyes, and it seemed that he hadn’t slept for a long time.
“Ah, it’s Xiao Gao, sorry, sorry, I have forgotten the time.”
The man’s name is Bai Haoran. He is a freelance original artist and a well-known video producer on the Internet. His ID is [The Shepherd in the Library].
“Teacher Bai, you seem to be very hard. Pay attention to your body.”
Gao Senmiao walked into the slightly messy living room, and put the document bag in his arms on the table.
“This is the remaining part of the eleventh episode. The trouble is to be completed within this week. It’s hard work.”
“Okay, well, the work on “Steel Mage” is almost finished. Then I can rest after finishing the work that Lao Cheng gave me. Would you like to go to the beach for a trip?”
Bai Haoran said to himself that the reason why he took over the work of the director of the eleventh episode of “Soul Eater: Zero” was due to the face of his old classmate Cheng Kewei. In the past two months, he At the same time, I took over the work of three animations and was very busy.
“How about going to the South Island, I heard that the seafood there is really delicious!”
Gao Senmiao suggested that as an executive production, it is also part of the work to be familiar with the preferences and action patterns of each original artist.
“I like seafood. I’ll see the ticket tomorrow, but I have to finish the work before that.”
Bai Haoran took out a few file bags from the room. This is the completed director’s draft of the eleventh episode of “Soul Eater: Zero”.
The director’s draft is a manuscript modified on the basis of the original painting. Since each original artist’s style is slightly different, the director needs to modify it to a unified style and determine the final draft. Only the director has checked it. After that, the original painting can be given to the animation group for the middle frame drawing.
“Thank you!”
Gao Senmiao nodded repeatedly and said goodbye after confirming the manuscript.
Feeling a little sleepy, Gao Senmiao did not rush to start the car. You must know that executive production is one of the jobs with the highest mortality rate in the animation industry, and most of the deaths are not due to overwork, but car accidents caused by fatigue driving.
She took out a can of coffee from the drawer in the passenger seat, and started the engine after sitting and drinking.
The road conditions were very good. It took Gao Senmiao only twenty minutes to return to the phantom animation headquarters in the Ningjiang High-tech Development Zone.
She walked up to the second floor, and just put down the manuscript in her hand, she suddenly realized that there is no one in the busy company at this moment.
“Ok?”
Gao Senmiao looked around and slowly climbed to the third floor.
The third floor was also empty, except that the main door of the large conference room on one side was closed, with light leaking through the cracks in the door.
Gao Senmiao walked over and gently opened the door, only to see that the large conference room was already full of people.
“Sure enough, this season is still “Legend of Seven Heroes”.”
The original painter Tao Ran picked up a duck intestine from the hot pot and put it in his oil dish.
“Judging from the attention rate, it is probably “The Hunter of Food”.”
Executive production Xu Yang was choked by chili when he finished talking, and hurriedly poured a large glass of water Huh, did you take care of that animation? ”
Deng Shixin, the person in charge of the 3D group, took a sip of beer in a paper cup, and then put a piece of kidney flower in the hot pot.
“Well, but I changed players because of differences later, and the evaluation of the animation has also dropped a lot.”
Yasuhara looked at the tender meat in the bowl and said with emotion.
“The first episode of the long-lost anime has been played for many years.”
Guo Weiren said to Yan Zhe with a slight face.
“Yes, no matter how many times I experience it, I can’t help but feel a little excited at this time.”
Yanzhe glanced at the screen. It was eleven in a few minutes. He looked at the table again and asked strangely.
“Speaking of which, where is Lao Cheng?”
“Go playing mahjong again, he is really busy lately.”
Li Ruoxuan said, seeing Gao Senmiao standing at the door, she stood up and greeted her, making a room.
“Meow, come on, sit here.”
She was originally named Gao Senmiao as Senmiao, but she later became Miaomiao, which was later simplified to Meow Meow.
Gao Senmiao just took his seat and took the bowls and chopsticks, and saw Yi Qianqian on the side wiping out the food in the bowl at an unpleasant but sure speed.
“Xu Rui, it’s going to be broadcast soon, do you want to post a Weibo or something?”
Li Ruoxuan asked, looking at Xu Rui who was eating a lot.
“Huh? It’s not necessary. You can check the response on Weibo later.”
After Xu Rui said, people refreshed the computer screen on the projection screen. On the homepage of Chengkong Video Network, the link and promotional image of the first episode of “Soul Eater: Zero” appeared.
“The broadcast started.”
At Li Ruoxuan’s urging, they clicked on this link.
