"Why is this person as haunted as Xu Qing?" Yan Xi complained.
Xie Ning leaned over curiously and pointed to the line on the CD: "Isn't there an English name behind the director?"
"Max. Right." Yan Xi explained, "This is Zhuang Yan's English name."
Xie Ning was surprised: "Really?"
Yan Xi snorted coldly: "Of course, Zhuang Yan University studied in the directing department of the Media Branch, and has been in the entertainment industry abroad after studying abroad. I heard that it is still a cutting-edge director. Max is the English name he gave himself. Too arrogant."
Xie Ning tilted his head and asked, "Have you checked Zhuang Yan?"
Yan Xi froze for a moment: "What?"
Xie Ning said slowly: "How do you know so clearly." He even knew his English name.
"What am I checking him for?" Yan Xi looked at Xie Ning's curious eyes, and suddenly felt at a loss, "What does he have to check for me! And I still use me to check these materials?!"
Xie Ning said nothing and put the CD away.
Yan Xi followed behind him and said, "I didn't pay attention to him because of you, but I really don't need to check this, it's spread all over the place!"
Xie Ning asked, "What is it?"
Yan Xi hesitated: "..."
Xie Ning: "?"
"Oh... Forget it!" Yan Xi sighed, "Everyone has been gossiping recently about your breakup with Xu Qing."
Xie Ning remembered the calls he received recently and nodded, "I know."
Yan Xi added: "Unfortunately, Zhuang Yan has returned to China. Two things that were originally unrelated were somehow linked by them, and they said that you broke up with Xu Qing because of Zhuang. Yan, Xu Qing couldn't let him go, so he broke up with you."
"Fart! You clearly dumped Xu Qing!" He said, and he got angry, "I'll explain it to you, they didn't believe it, but they talked about that Zhuang Yan! A bunch of idiots!"
This group of people, said to be classmates and friends, is also a very exclusive circle of wealthy children, and they can't get into their eyes at all.
Although Yan Xi's background is considered wealthy, compared to a wealthy family, it is the difference between heaven and earth. He is a self-made man, if it is not for Xie Ning's face, he will not be easily accepted.
Even so, there were people who mocked him behind his back as Xie Ning's follower, and would only follow Xie Ning's ass.
If it weren't for the fact that Xie Ning was really worried, Yan Xi wouldn't look down on this group of dudes who didn't do much business, and would eat, drink, and have fun.
Of course, there are also elite children, some of whom had a good time with Yan Xi, and helped him a lot when he started his own business in his early years.
After Xie Ning listened to his long series of words, he replied, "Oh."
Oh what, Yan Xi felt that he was about to die of anger: "Aren't you going to clarify to them?!"
Xie Ning said: "It's too much trouble, they can say what they like."
Looking at Yan Xi's unkind eyes, he added: "It's annoying."
Yan Xi was speechless.
"Eldest young master, can you stop being so ignorant of human fireworks and be a little popular?"
"But." Xie Ning said aggrieved, "It's really tiring for me to explain to so many people one by one."
Yan Xi was completely speechless.
In the end, he rubbed Xie Ning's hair fiercely and felt the soft touch before barely suppressing the anger in his heart.
Xie Ning turned off the projector and searched for the director of "Monologue" on his mobile phone.
Just like what Yan Xi said, Max, the director of "Monologue", is indeed a Chinese. His Chinese name is Zhuang Yan, and his resume is very gorgeous. He can match the Zhuang Yan mentioned by Xu Qing in his impression.
This movie is not well-known on the Internet, but it has caused quite a stir in the entertainment industry.
After all, he is a Chinese director whose work can be shortlisted at the Cannes Film Festival.
Zhuang Yan kept a low profile after returning to China. Xie Ning simply searched a few times, but did not find his photos, but found his Weibo.
Shane nodded.
Yan Xi, who watched the whole process: "???"
"Why are you following him?"
"His movies are well done," Shainin said.
Yan Xi remembered the literary and artistic work with beautiful pictures and flat plots, and once again felt the huge difference in aesthetics between himself and his friends.
"Forget it, just be happy."
Xie Ning's last Weibo post in a hundred years found that he had gained a lot of fans.
The Christmas poster he painted before was published on the Internet, and the style of the painting was loved by many people, and some people dug up his Weibo.
Xie Ning is not good at social networking, and he rarely manages these social platforms. This Weibo was applied for by Xu Qing. In the past, some of his copied works were posted, but the last one was only a few months later, and it was slowly abandoned. Fans The numbers are also pitiful.
Painting is Xie Ning's rare hobby. He has no desires or desires. After learning that he is obsessed with painting, his family is ecstatic.
Xie Ning is talented and enthusiastic. He has learned every type of painting. Later, when he came into contact with a digital tablet, he devoted himself to it wholeheartedly.
Yan Xi's game company started out with PC games, but the PC game market was sluggish, and the company was half-dead.
Fortunately, Yan Xi has a keen eye and quickly turned to the mobile game market. A well-known development game "Mobile Lover" is all the rage, and it has a place in the big cake of the mobile game market.
Shainin is the original artist for this game.
30% of the success of "Mobile Phone Lovers" depends on management and 70% on the exquisite style of painting. Whether it is the original painting of the scene or the original painting of the characters, including the various costumes introduced later, it is deeply loved by the public.
Shainin quickly made a name for himself in the original game art industry.
After that, Feifan, a well-known game company, invited Xie Ning to participate in the original painting design of the new project "Shan Hai Ji".
"Shan Hai Ji" is based on the monsters in Shan Hai Jing. It is a large-scale card-drawing mobile game with hundreds of card characters. Xie Ning only designed a few scenes and characters for them.
The game was officially tested in June this year, and it exploded at an unimaginable speed. It has become a phenomenon-level mobile game. Anyone who loves to play games must download this game on their mobile phones.
Among them, the SSR card Pixiu designed by Xie Ning has become the most popular game character, both the prototype and the unique design after anthropomorphism, are loved by players.
There are a lot of fanarts about Pixiu on the Internet. With the popularity of the game, many fanartists have attracted a lot of fans to themselves.
As the original artist, Xie Ning has always kept a low profile. Except for those in the industry, no one knows that he is the designer of the Pixiu.
Xie Ning's previous draft was the Christmas poster of "Shan Hai Ji".
At the beginning, the artist of the poster appointment was not him. Later, there was probably a dispute. Feifan Games went to find Xie Ning, because the time was too urgent and the manuscript fee was doubled.
Xie Ning stayed up all night for this poster, and the final result was not only very satisfied by Party A, but also very much by the players—
Less than a day after the poster was released on the official Weibo, the comments below exceeded 10,000, and it is continuing to grow.
Xie Ning doesn't care about the number of fans, but he is very happy that his works are liked.
In addition to "Monologue", Xie Ning also has two other films by Max, that is, Zhuang Yan. Zhuang Yan has made many movies abroad. "Monologue" is the most famous one, and there are several Xie Ning movies that he did not buy in China. arrive.
However, when he saw Yan Xi's lack of interest, he arranged the remaining CDs on the shelf.
The wind was frighteningly strong on a winter night, slashing like a knife.
Xie Ning sent Yan Xi to the garage. Hearing the wind, he hesitated: "It's so late, why don't you stay here tonight?"
"Don't. You have to drive an hour to my company. I don't want to get up early in the winter. That would kill me."
"Then go later." Xie Ning said, "The boss won't deduct wages for being late."
Yan Xi said righteously: "I want to lead by example!"
Shainin looked at him suspiciously.
"Okay, okay." Yan Xi raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender, "There is an important meeting tomorrow morning, and if you are late, the shareholders will be talking about death."
Xie Ning: "Then pay attention to safety on the road."
Yan Xi walked to the back of the car, and suddenly took a stuffed bear from the trunk, holding it about as high as Xie Ning, and he didn't know how he stuffed it into the trunk so Xie Ning couldn't find it.
"Give you."
Xie Ning hugged the stuffed bear blankly: "What is this?"
"Christmas gifts and housewarming gifts." Yan Xi said, "You can hug and sleep at night to keep warm."
Xie Ning: "I don't have the habit of holding things when I sleep."
Yan Xi said: "Then put it on the bed as a decoration. I don't think you like these plush toys very much. You also brought a few small dolls with you this time."
Xie Ning was stunned for a moment, thinking of the man from that day: "Caught by the doll machine."
Yan Xi added: "So is the rabbit at the head of the bed? I think that one is very cute and looks like you."
Xie Ning was told that for the second time, and he hesitated: "Really?"
Yan Xi suddenly smiled: "The rabbit will bite when you're in a hurry. How can you learn not to bite?"
"… roll."
"Then I'm really screwed." Yan Xi got into the car and opened the window, "Merry Christmas."
Xie Ning waved at him: "Merry Christmas."
The lakeside villa has complete security facilities and a good environment. The people who come in and out are full of respectable people. It is a bit empty and lonely to live alone.
Xie Ning didn't feel lonely. The place was very clean and no one bothered him. He took the opportunity to sort out his inspirations and ideas.
In the past two days, after watching Zhuang Yan's films one by one, he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling for the director.
Several movies have their own merits, but the picture design perfectly fits his hobby. Shaining has paid attention to staff watches, but the main beauty is not the same person.
This is Zhuang Yan's unique style.
Xie Ning thought, it seems that his and Zhuang Yan's aesthetics are quite similar.
The best of these films is "Monologue".
Xie Ning watched it several times, and he was familiar with several classic scenes, and he still dreamed about it at night.
When Yan Xi took time to come to check the survival of his friend, Xie Ning was drawing a draft, and after putting the person in, he directly asked him to go to the living room to watch TV.
When he has inspiration, he is usually immersed in his own world, and he may not hear his name when he calls his name. Yan Xi knows his fault, and happily goes to the living room for a walk, and then returns to the studio to see his sketches.
Shainin's studio is very large. A long table divides the space into two sides. On one side are painting tools and a dazzling array of bookshelves. There are several drawing board stands on the ground.
The other side is relatively neat. There is a large blackboard on the wall, grids are attached to the blackboard, and clips are used to hold various drawings and materials.
Inside the long table sits a laptop, a tablet, and two widescreen monitors in the back, and a monitor is mounted on the wall.
The outside of the table was a little messy, with various papers and pens scattered on the table. Xie Ning sat on a chair and drew on a piece of paper with his head down.
Yan Xi looked down, and the picture on the paper looked like a draft scene.
"This is a newly designed original game painting?" Yan Xi asked when he put down his pen.
"No." Xie Ning shook his head, "Just paint."
After a pause, he didn't say a word, this draft is not the original painting of the game, but the original painting of the movie.
"I want to take a break for the past two days, so I won't be accepting manuscripts for the time being." Xie Ning said.
Yan Xi nodded: "You should take a good rest, you stayed up late to catch up on the draft before, there are many cases of sudden death on the Internet, don't worry about it. Don't take this kind of urgent draft next time, no matter how much money you give it, you are not short of money. "
Xie Ning said: "The main beauty of "Shan Hai Ji" came to me directly. I had a good relationship with him when I worked together before. Seeing that he was in a hurry, I helped him."
"The Christmas poster of "Shan Hai Ji"? It turns out that you are rushing to this one." Yan Xi frowned and suddenly remembered something, "It does have your style, but the poster seems to be torn up these two days."
Xie Ning was stunned: "Tear up?"
Yan Xi nodded and integrated the information from the previous gossip: "It seems that "Shan Hai Ji" first asked another original artist to paint this poster, but the final draft failed. There are many fans of this original artist. Go under the poster and pinch."
Xie Ning thought about it and asked, "No draft?"
Yan Xi said, "I don't know."
Xie Ning asked again, "Have you signed a contract?"
Yan Xi said, "I don't know."
Xie Ning: "Have you paid the manuscript fee?"
Yan Xi still said, "I don't know."
"..." Xie Ning was silent for a few seconds, "Then what do you know?"
Yan Xi: "I'm neither a painter nor a Feifan game, how do I know this?"
Xie Ning: "Oh, then I won't ask."
No matter how you look at it, it's a dispute between Feifei Games and the artist, even if it's a riot.
What about him.
Xie Ning got up and put away the manuscripts scattered on the table, stacked them together, and finally focused on the top draft.
He paused for a moment with his fingertips, and suddenly said, "Yan Xi, I want to paint the original film and television."
The author has something to say: Zhuang Yan's next chapter is online.
