Chapter 864: Let's call it *Jackie Chan Adventures*! (Begging for subscriptions)
"Lin Yu, are you sure?"
"Then what does this film have to do with me?"
Cheng Long grinned and smiled bitterly.
The Cheng Family Stunt Team was also completely confused.
A low-age cartoon was already hard to accept.
And it was a serialized cartoon!
Even more outrageous was that it didn't require Cheng Long to act, nor did it require Cheng Long to voice it.
Then what is this?
Isn't this completely nonsense!
Facing the confusion of Cheng Long and the Cheng Family Stunt Team,
Lin Yu was unhurried.
He blew the foam off his teacup.
"Big Brother Cheng Long, since your target audience is young people, if you film a movie, it definitely won't have a very good effect."
"The competition in the film and television circle is so big, and there are so many new faces; to put it bluntly, veteran actors don't have any advantages."
"It's the market that chooses our film format, not us choosing the market."
"Since we want to capture the post-00s generation, we might as well take a different path and choose the path of animation to better grab their attention."
"It's more suitable and practical than those few frames of a movie."
Lin Yu's words were reasonable and well-founded, immediately making Cheng Long fall into thought.
Since he found Lin Yu to seek change,
he naturally couldn't use old routines.
Don't doubt the person you use, don't use the person you doubt.
Cheng Long had understood this principle 50 years ago.
"Then why can't Big Brother appear on screen in person?"
A martial arts instructor from the Cheng Family Stunt Team asked suspiciously.
Others also nodded in agreement.
Without Big Brother appearing in person, would the audience buy it?
"Then I'll ask everyone a question."
"Why do you think Cheng Long's movies are loved and supported by fans nationwide and even globally?"
Lin Yu said unhurriedly, word by word.
"That goes without saying, because Big Brother's actions are real, and he does stunts others dare not do."
"That's right, doing it in person, many are dangerous actions; every movie is a classic among classics."
"Fast-paced, engaging, comedic elements, rich and diverse content."
Everyone said what was in their hearts.
Cheng Long also nodded silently on the side.
Having millions and tens of millions of fans globally
is not easy; that was all earned with his blood, sweat, and life.
This is also what Cheng Long is most proud of.
"That's right, but now Big Brother is older, and many actions can't be done anymore."
"It is precisely because of this that the advantages of animation are reflected."
"We don't need to appear in person, but instead, the actions can be expressed more exaggeratedly and cleanly."
"It has more of Big Brother Cheng Long's youthful style and state, and the atmosphere of action comedy."
"If we can really cooperate, I'll have to trouble everyone to brainstorm and help keep an eye on things."
Hearing Lin Yu's words, everyone suddenly realized.
So that's how it is.
If animation is used as a carrier, while paying tribute, it can add actions that real people can't do.
Don't say, this is really a new path worth exploring.
"But, won't this seem too childish and lack substance?"
Cheng Long expressed his concerns; having been in the industry for over 50 years, although he is old now, his commercial sense for films is very sharp.
He knows very well what the audience wants.
"This is what I'm about to say."
"In this animation, I will add a lot of Chinese elements, and even Chinese historical figures, such as the twelve zodiac signs, the treasure of Qin Shi Huang, mysterious oriental spells, etc."
When Lin Yu said this, that masterpiece from his childhood couldn't help but appear in his mind.
He still remembered when that animation first aired, Lin Yu would lie in front of the TV every episode, looking forward to it and watching it frame by frame.
Especially the first time he watched it.
The excitement of it still makes his blood boil when he thinks about it today.
He almost wanted to call him Uncle Long!
"Good! This idea is good!"
Cheng Long nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
As a business card for China,
at this age, Cheng Long cares more about his identity label and the cultural influence he transmits to global fans.
If he really films a serialized animation according to Lin Yu's concept, it might really resonate with teenagers among global fans.
It can also promote traditional Chinese culture; that would be excellent. "Then I will contact Warner Bros. in Hollywood."
Cheng Long excitedly took out his phone to look for the number.
"Wait."
Lin Yu stopped him immediately.
"Big Brother, since it's in your name to create a unique Chinese animation, I hope to use our local animation studio to complete this project. I heard there's an animation company called Rainbow that's quite good."
Lin Yu smiled and said loudly.
Inside, he was secretly thinking to himself.
Are you kidding me?
After taking such a big detour and racking his brains for ideas, letting foreigners make the money?
Where is the logic in that!
"???"
"Are there any studios in our country that can produce high-quality animation?"
Cheng Long pushed up his glasses, looking suspicious.
He had been studying movies for decades, but he had never seen a domestic animation in theaters that had achieved success.
"Big Brother, in two months, the first domestic animation film with an investment of over 100 million will be released in theaters; it won't be too late for you to make a decision then."
Lin Yu said with confidence.
"Mm! A domestic animation with an investment of over 100 million? That can really be considered a big production."
"No, wait a minute."
"How are you so familiar with this studio?" Cheng Long was shocked.
He immediately reacted; these are all trade secrets, how could Lin Yu know them in such detail?
"Because I am the boss of this animation studio."
Lin Yu chuckled; this is something you can find out with a quick search, no need to be mysterious.
"Hahahaha, good kid!"
"You were waiting for me here!"
