Chapter 270: 《Blue Fatty》

"Fog Hill of Five Elements," a work brought to life by a young man named Lin Hun, leading his five little companions.

The entire work is based on freehand ink wash painting, incorporating the well-known "Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth" five elements, as well as settings like 【Greed Hatred Ignorance】.

Many mainstream media outlets evaluate it as: "【Ink Wash】 plus 【Wuxia】, looking across the world, it belongs uniquely to Huaxia!"

Such a work is something others cannot produce.

General Director Lin Hun had another moderately famous work while producing "Fog Hill of Five Elements," called "Age of City Glass Heart."

This work was also shockingly short, only four minutes long.

But the fight scenes within it were so vivid, so detailed!

In fact, looking globally, although Huaxia's animation is in a state of catching up, if it is a fight scene designed with heart, it is top-tier worldwide.

Many foreign animation teams are also increasingly fond of finding Huaxia people to be responsible for the fight scene portions.

In this regard, we have the most confidence!

Originally, after the pilot of "Age of City Glass Heart" came out, it had already made a name for itself. But Lin Hun's two partners at the time began to crazily cash in, taking on various advertisements, outsourcing, and the like, while casting the production of the animation itself to the back of their minds.

Finally, Lin Hun could no longer endure it and left the company.

He stated: "As a traditional craftsman, I did not find a common ground with businessmen; I do not want to be dragged into these kinds of meaningless events for the work anymore."

Precisely because of this, he also lost the copyright to this work, and everything had to start from scratch.

Dreams ultimately lost to capital.

After ups and downs, this young man did not give up his original intention, but instead posted a long Weibo, in which he wrote: "Give me some time, let me charge back to the peak!"

With nothing to his name, he registered a studio named 【Six Paths No Fish】 with a registered capital of 10 yuan, one person and one pen, and began to create anew.

In a short month's time, the trailer for "Fog Hill of Five Elements" appeared out of nowhere.

Under the strong Requirement of the fans, he reassembled a team and held multiple positions, doing almost everything himself, even Singing the theme song himself.

Because of this, a meme was born—【Injecting Lin Hun】!

The reason for this phenomenon is that the General Director being quite all-around is one aspect, but more importantly—it's poor!

Too poor, this team is truly too poor!

And perhaps because he was burned by capital before, it made him increasingly cautious.

Although the first season of the entire animation only has three episodes, in the fight scenes, every second requires at least 24 hand-drawn frames.

A mere three episodes consumed several years of their time.

Once broadcast, aside from the drama and voice acting being slightly criticized, it can be said to have been highly acclaimed, and was even named and praised by CCTV.

In fact, some flaws are also due to a lack of money. Because there is no money, it leads to having to make many trade-offs when telling a story.

Some foreshadowing, some subplots, some character development—you simply have no conditions to complete them.

Fortunately, although this three-episode first season looks more like an introduction, and some even jokingly call it an investment solicitation advertisement, it did indeed trigger a huge response.

On the small broken station, over two hundred thousand people gave it a high score of 9.8; in a mere three episodes, the single-platform view count exceeded one hundred million, and it appeared on the Hot Search in turns.

Luo Mo definitely wants to do this project.

How could one not dabble in 【Hero Elements】 and 【Ink Wash Elements】?

"I don't mind being named and praised by CCTV a few more times," he thought to himself.

What's more, it wouldn't be good to let those 2D masters mentioned by He Yuanguang have nothing to do in the studio, right?

Seeing that Luo Mo had ideas in mind, He Yuanguang felt relieved.

He trusts Luo Mo's creativity and ideas very much; the scripts for "That Rabbit" and "Spirit Cage" both struck him as astonishing.

Moreover, Luo Mo now holds a high stake; his shareholding in Tongguang Studio is no lower than in Xinyu, which means he is also a big boss with extremely high decision-making power.

"Then... what about that other group of people? Do you really have a long-term serialized project?" He Yuanguang asked.

The other group he spoke of were those who did not understand 3D, and whose level had not reached the top, but were above the passing line.

If these people were put outside, they would also be talents fought over by major studios.

They are very mature, very experienced, and at the same time, just like He Yuanguang, they have a lot of sentiment.

He Yuanguang is now accustomed to Luo Mo's shortness, so he really didn't quite believe it when he said he wanted to do a long-term serialized project.

"Then could I be lying to you?" This ignited Luo Mo's dignity as a man.

Men, a species extremely sensitive to length.

For him, there are simply too many such animations, and for a moment, he didn't even know which one to pick.

"Eh! Got it!" He suddenly thought of a work.

"It can not only be serialized long-term, but it can also be specially produced into feature films in the future."

"At the same time, it is suitable for all ages, and later it can also undergo IP development."

Do not underestimate the copyright of an animation IP; as long as the influence is great enough, it can bring in terrifying revenue in a year.

"It's just that some parts, I'm Afraid, will need to undergo some appropriate modifications."

This is a work that it would not be an exaggeration to say swept the globe.

It is called—"Doraemon"!

Also known as "Blue Fatty."

……….

……….

After obtaining Luo Mo's promise, He Yuanguang happily returned to his hometown to celebrate the New Year.

He is full of drive for next year.

Luo Mo looked at the Back Shadow of Guang Shu leaving and felt that he was simply committing a sin.

I don't know if everyone remembers that He Yuanguang's wife previously had a second-child plan.

On the day he should have been making a baby, He Yuanguang was in the study reading the script for "Spirit Cage" all night long.

A few months flashed by, and there wasn't even a hint of movement in the belly of Guang Shu's wife.

Luo Mo had never imagined that one day he would be responsible for someone else's second-child plan...

After He Yuanguang left, a flash of inspiration struck Luo Mo, and he suddenly decided on his pseudonym.

"I'll use this name to write songs for Li Junyi on the show!"

This name was very special and held extraordinary significance.

It was perfect to use this show, titled "Masked Singer", as the catalyst.

Through it and this name, he would unveil a corner of Luo Mo's grand plan.

At this thought, he seemed to recall something, slapped his thigh, and said, "No, it can't be too big either, just a tiny bit big is fine; it can't affect my retirement."

"This Idol Wants to Retire but the Author Won't Let Him, This Book Only Has a Short One Million Words and Feels Like It Could Be Multiplied Several Times Over."

………

………

The final rehearsal for the Spring Festival Gala went very smoothly.

Luo Mo and Xu Chujing were relatively calm, but the Aurora Girls were very excited.

Because they had made it through the rehearsals without being kicked out halfway, they had earned the honor of appearing on the Spring Festival Gala, and on New Year's Eve, they were about to become the first girl group to step onto the Spring Festival Gala stage in Blue Star Huaxia!

The captain, Han Ziyi, who loved wearing silk stockings, had been acting possessed lately, often chanting a phrase like a mantra: "Bringing honor to one's ancestors."

She was someone who came from a small city, and it hadn't been easy to make it all the way to becoming the captain of a girl group that broke history.

In this, there was 10% effort and 90% luck in meeting Luo Mo.

This made the attitude of Han Ziyi and the others toward Director Luo nothing short of outrageous.

As for Jiang Ningxi, she was the same as always; although she had confirmed her own feelings, the history of their relationship created an invisible barrier between them.

On the contrary, Shen Yinuo had recently been trying her best to keep her distance from Luo Mo, adjusting her mindset after being long-term abused on set, hoping to return to normal as soon as possible.

Jiang Ningxi saw this scene in her eyes, and her heart was incredibly puzzled: "They shouldn't have had anything happen on set, right?"

As the saying goes: in this world, childhood sweethearts are often the losers, and people have suffered from the "new arrival" for too long.

For a moment, Jiang Ningxi couldn't quite tell who was a friend and who was a Rival in Love.

Looking around, there weren't many who were innocent!

Even the Idol she had always admired most, Jing, was now getting closer and closer to Luo Mo, giving off a thick sense of ambiguity.

The General Director of the Spring Festival Gala, Qian Qingyun, was particularly satisfied with the three songs Luo Mo had written for the gala stage.

The Aurora Girls' "Chinese Language" was scheduled relatively early.

It was New Year's Eve, after all; six girls with distinct characteristics were perfect for warming up the crowd and building the atmosphere.

Who doesn't love looking at pretty girls, regardless of age or gender?

Not to mention that the overall style of this song sounded lively and festive.

As for Luo Mo's solo stage, it was placed in the middle of the Spring Festival Gala, which could be considered prime time.

When the entire internet learned that Luo Mo would be performing a solo, countless people were shocked; just how much did Director Qian Qingyun value him to give him this treatment?

And Xu Chujing's "Unforgettable Tonight" would serve as the closing song, her first time on the Spring Festival Gala, placed at the very end.

Days without being able to show off always flash by, and in the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.

Looking across the internet, Luo Mo had, by his own strength, raised the expectations of some netizens for this year's Spring Festival Gala.

"At least I'll get to hear a new song from Luo Mo! Satisfied!"

"It's a pity Luo Mo and Xu Chujing aren't performing together, what a regret."

"The program list is already out, and looking at this song title, I really don't know what he's going to sing."

"It's obviously Chinese Style! For Chinese Style, you still have to look to our grandmaster!"

"He hasn't released a new Chinese Style song himself for too long, which has led some Singers who have achieved a little success in this field to get a bit cocky."

"In his first year of debut, he's already on the Spring Festival Gala; I'll just ask one thing—who else is there!?"

"By the way, will he sing songs from 'Celestial Sword 5 Qixia Zhuan'? I'm not just looking forward to the show now, I'm also really looking forward to the songs in it!"

As for Luo Mo, he posted a Weibo this afternoon.

It was just four characters: "Working overtime tonight."

His fans were always shouting for him to work overtime, and good heavens, on the New Year, he really was!

One has to say, the will of the masses is terrifying.

His fans were still commenting happily underneath: "Continue next year?"

Each one of them was like a broken record, repeating the same sentence tens of thousands of times.

Whoa! They actually want me to be on the Spring Festival Gala consecutively?

As for the various marketing accounts and bloggers on major platforms, they were already rubbing their hands, waiting for the Spring Festival Gala to start.

The popularity of the Spring Festival Gala was something the entire internet was trying to piggyback on.

Amidst this anticipation from the masses, the Live Broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve officially began.

(ps: Second update, asking for monthly tickets!)
