With the work experience from previous life, the post-production work of the short animation went smoothly.
During this period, Gu Sihan and Lu Yue came a few more times without giving up. They didn't dare to break into room 305, so they tried to get close to the three people outside from time to time, trying every means to find out what the three people were doing in room 305.
Once again, Mu Suxing was disdainful and too lazy to get entangled with the two men. But as the saying goes, the best way to deal with a gangster is to find another gangster. From this point of view, Fang Lian is really the nemesis of these two people.
"What am I doing in 305? Well, I'm just bored, so I just made something to practice. My brother is rich anyway." Fang Lian spread his hands, with a smug look on his face as if he had hooked up with a rich man.
Gu Sihan didn't want to get entangled with this man, so she diverted his attention and tried to find Mu Suxing. However, every time she was about to get close to Mu Suxing, Fang Lian would stop her without a word. This man was too shameless to approach her and chat with her. He waved his hand and told Mu Suxing and Wen Feihang to get out: "Go away, don't disturb my precious time alone with the beautiful lady."
"By the way, beautiful lady, are you free tomorrow? Let's have dinner together."
It has to be said that a man like Fang Lian, once he shows a malicious look, he will be seen as a disgusting man that women dislike. Naturally, Gu Sihan would not be in a good mood. She took several steps back in shock, as if she was afraid that Fang Lian would touch her.
"No, no need." If it weren't for the fact that Fang Lian was still useful, Gu Sihan would have told him to get lost. But now Fang Lian was her only way to get close to Muxuxing, so she had to hide her disgust and force a smile: "Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Laboratory Building, 305.
Because of the experience from the previous life and the fact that everything was ready, the post-production of the short animation was completed very quickly. When Fang Lian pushed the door in, Mu Suxing and Wen Feihang were watching the final product.
Wen Feihang looked up at the person who came and smiled wickedly: "Didn't you say you wanted to be alone with a beautiful woman? How does it feel?"
Fang Lian curled his lips, his expression showing a kind of disdain and disgust: "You think too much. How could I abandon my paper wife for no reason and become someone else's lapdog? Her? She's not even one ten-thousandth as cute as my wife!"
The two of them exchanged a few words and then stopped talking, and then turned their attention to the final short animation product. Mu Suxing was already very familiar with his final product, and when he watched it again, the problems that were overlooked during editing gradually became clear in his mind.
The production took nearly half a year, and all seven short animations take just over half an hour to watch.
As the last short animation came to an end, Wen Feihang couldn't help but say, "I'm beginning to believe that we will not return empty-handed this time."
Unlike Wen Feihang who has great interest in artistic animation, Fang Lian is a pure otaku. He has no interest in literary and artistic stuff. However, even so, even if he doesn't watch the content, just by looking at the storyboards, original paintings, and coloring, he can vaguely sense Mu Xuxing's current level.
To be frank, Fang Lian even felt that, let alone making a short animation, even if it was a serious animated series, Mu Suxing was fully capable of being the chief director at this time.
"I think..." Fang Lian deliberately dragged out his tone, attracting the attention of his two friends, and then he said seriously, "I think it's time for us to start naming our studio."
According to the bet between the three people, Fang Lian's words at this moment seemed to imply that he was willing to accept defeat.
Mu Suxing was not surprised by this, because the system had included Wen Feihang and Fang Lian in his production team several months ago. Obviously, according to the system's calculations, regardless of whether they would be selected for this event, given Wen Feihang and Fang Lian's personalities, they would eventually join his team.
What's more, with their outstanding performance in this production, Mu Suxing didn't think that the three of them would lose to others.
"We'll talk about these later." After simply organizing the seven short animations and sending them to the corresponding persons in charge of the seven subway lines, Mu Suxing stretched and stood up from his seat: "We finally finished the animation, let's have a good meal first - let's go, I'll treat you."
“Are these all the works you sent me?”
In a medium-sized studio, a young woman in a light grey suit tapped buttons on the remote control, her face revealing disappointment: "Why are there always these vulgar videos? In another month, it will be the final review stage for the 'Cultural City' award. How can I show this?"
The activity of collecting videos for the subway cultural propaganda column has been going on for more than half a year, but Yan Yiling is not very satisfied with the works submitted to her.
It’s not that she has any prejudice against funny and other entertainment videos. The subway is one of the symbols of the fast pace of modern life. People rush to work, and watching entertainment and funny videos is not a kind of enjoyment. But in Yan Yiling’s opinion, it is a waste to put such videos on the subway cultural propaganda column!
Can't passengers easily see funny videos by browsing short video websites and social platforms
Such a precious place as the subway cultural propaganda column should of course play truly meaningful videos!
Seeing Yan Yiling's frown and impatient expression, the staff beside her felt helpless.
It stands to reason that for a metropolis like Xingning City, there should be no shortage of participants for this kind of event. However, I don’t know what the higher-ups were thinking this time, but they insisted on separating the seven subway lines completely independently and soliciting entries for each. Wouldn’t this invisibly disperse the excellent works
Indeed, the event did not explicitly state that contestants were not allowed to submit the same draft to multiple submissions, but it is foreseeable that anyone who is confident in their work or has a certain reputation in the industry will not submit the same draft to multiple submissions. In this way, the excellent works that their first line can receive will naturally be divided into other lines.
How could Yan Yiling not understand this truth in her heart
She sighed, stood up and walked out, ready to go to lunch. She had no hope for the following videos, and even began to consider choosing a more sophisticated one from the many funny videos. However, at this moment, a clear boy's voice jumped into her ears:
"You talk just like the adults!" The boy's voice was sharp and annoyed, even a little sad, "You can't tell the difference, you mix everything together!"
Yan Yiling stopped subconsciously.
"I have been to a planet where there lived a red-faced man who had never smelled a flower or looked at a star. He kept saying, 'I have a serious business, I am a serious man,' just like you. This made him so arrogant that he looked like a mushroom instead of a human being."
--This is…
Yan Yiling immediately turned around and strode towards the display screen.
The first thing that caught her eye was the unique painting style that was completely different from ordinary animations. It seemed like a pure fairy tale style, but with a beautiful watercolor texture. She suppressed her joy and patiently continued to watch the plot in the video.
"What is it?" the man asked.
The little man in the video turned pale with anger and shouted, "It's a mushroom!"
Yan Yiling couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The many funny videos before did not make this person in charge smile at all. Instead, this video, which was not funny at all, made her laugh out loud.
It’s not that this part of the plot was particularly funny, but she found the metaphor of “mushroom” really cute and couldn’t help but smile.
The plot in the video continues.
The more Yan Yiling looked down, the more serious her expression became.
She found that although this short animation seemed to be full of fairy-tale elements, it was actually very meaningful in reality. It conveyed the author's intentions to the readers in a subtle way through poetic images and language.
Living in such a city made of steel and concrete, busy with all kinds of serious matters, aren’t we just the adults who were scolded as mushrooms by the little prince in the animation
Yan Yiling kept thinking in her mind, and her eyes became brighter and brighter as she watched the short animation.
Full marks for the title! Full marks for the art! Full marks for the plot! Full marks for the connotation!
This is the short video that really suits her taste!
