Chapter 550: with translation of title

~6 min read 1,024 words

Morning Light's animation department.

Jiaozi Yang Yu, he is leading the team in producing Nezha 2.

The success of Nezha: The Devil Boy's Birth can be said to have given him great confidence.

Not only him, but even the other team members are full of confidence, ah.

After all, as the first major film, it grossed nearly 6 billion.

They never even dreamed of it.

This way.

Lin Mo watched Jiaozi wearing VR equipment and gesticulating wildly; Nezha's motion capture all came from Jiaozi himself.

Don't judge by his usual appearance; he seems introverted.

As a result...

When performing Nezha's expression and movement, he was completely like a different person.

Lin Mo saw him acting so seriously, didn't disturb him, and just quietly watched from the side.

Of course, the other people in the animation department naturally saw the boss's arrival.

But.

Lin Mo made a shushing gesture to them, and no one spoke up to disturb.

Only after Jiaozi finished this segment did Lin Mo then applaud and praise.

Yang Yu saw Lin Mo, fumbled to take off the VR equipment, sweat still on his forehead: "Boss, how did you come..."

Lin Mo smiled and waved at him: "I just came to take a look~" He pointed at Jiaozi: "This Nezha must be played by you; otherwise, there would be no soul!"

Yang Yu smiled embarrassedly and scratched his head.

Actually, for the initial motion-capture image of Nezha in Nezha: The Devil Boy's Birth, Yang Yu had wanted to hire a star actor.

As a result, he searched for a long time but couldn't find a suitable actor.

If the boss hadn't told him, 'If you're not satisfied, just do it yourself,'...

So, that's how this classic image of Nezha appeared.

Although Jiaozi didn't study acting.

But...

This version of Nezha is like his own child; who could understand his own child better than himself?

So, the filming of Nezha 2 naturally also had him portraying Nezha.

Both walked into the office; Yang Yu hurriedly made a cup of tea: "Boss, what are you filming for your animated movie?"

Regarding Director Lin's new film.

He knows.

When he first learned that the boss was also preparing to make an animated film, he was quite surprised.

But then came excitement, ah.

In that case, he and the boss would have more common ground.

Lin Mo took the tea cup, smiling and said: "Almost done; I've basically finished the script!"

Yang Yu curiously asked: "Boss, could you tell me about this story?"

"It's a story about robots!"

Lin Mo turned the cup: "WALL·E, who lived in a trash heap for seven hundred years, met Yi Wa from outer space..."

Jiaozi's eyes lit up: "Post-apocalyptic wasteland style?"

"No!" Lin Mo shook his head: "It's cosmic-level romance!"

Next, he began to recount the story of Robots.

For example, when Yi Wa was in hibernation, WALL·E's guardianship.

That little green sprout that changed humanity's fate.

After hearing Lin Mo's explanation, Yang Yu was completely stunned. His hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly, the tea in the cup gently swayed, reflecting his shocked expression.

"Boss... this..." his voice trembled: "This story is too..."

Yang Yu suddenly stood up, pacing back and forth in the office, as if ignited by some emotion.

"Cosmic-level romance! Truly cosmic-level romance!" He abruptly turned to look at Lin Mo: "A robot that can't speak can actually express such rich emotions! The scene of WALL·E guarding the hibernating Yi Wa—just imagining that image..."

Yang Yu was extremely excited: "Boss, this will definitely be an epoch-making animated film, far more profound than Nezha!"

And Lin Mo, seeing Yang Yu before him, excited like a child, couldn't help but laugh.

Afterward.

The two then engaged in deep discussion.

Because, in the whole company, only Yang Yu is an animation director.

How to put it?

Regarding making animated films, Lin Mo indeed has some questions to ask him.

After all, this is his first time making an animated film.

It's not an exaggeration to call him a newcomer.

When Lin Mo returned home, only a warm yellow floor lamp was on in the living room.

The television screen's light fell on Re Ba's face; she held the sleeping Xiao Jiahuo in her arms, intently watching Northbound.

Lin Mo walked over lightly, sat beside her, and whispered with a smile: "It's so late, still binge-watching?"

Re Ba then noticed he had returned, her eyes lit up, but she immediately raised her index finger to her lips: "Shh—keep it down, the baby just fell asleep."

She leaned closer to Lin Mo, lowered her voice, her tone brimming with excitement she couldn't hide: "Lulu did a great job; look at this segment, she standing by the Yellow River—she completely embodies the educated youth of that era!"

Lin Mo smiled, reached out and gently rubbed Xiao Jiahuo's hair, his gaze falling on the TV.

This drama is a key project co-produced this year by the company and CCTV, with the script polished for two full years; Bai Lu landing the lead role is indeed thanks to Re Ba's recommendation.

Of course, it's mainly because Bai Lu suits the role.

"Now online everyone's praising her acting improvement, she's been on the hot searches several rounds." Re Ba whispered, saying, "She just sent me a message, saying she's especially thankful to me~"

Lin Mo nodded: "She really is well suited for this role."

On TV, Bai Lu's scenes ended, and the ending theme began to play softly.

Re Ba lowered her head to look at the sleeping Xiao Jiahuo in her arms, and softly said, "I'll take her to bed; you go take a shower first."

Lin Mo nodded, reached out to take the child: "I'll do it; you keep watching."

Re Ba blinked, suddenly leaned in, kissed him on the cheek, and said with a smile, "Thanks, hubby~"

Lin Mo smiled, holding the child as he walked toward the bedroom.

Their married life hasn't changed at all because of Xiao Jiahuo's arrival.

But now, their world has one more little life needing their shared care, making this plain sweetness even more complete.
