Chapter 227 Arrival in Shanghai (2/2)

Zhou Qingyun also smiled and said, "I didn't expect Producer Lin to be so handsome and extraordinary. He is really young and promising!"

Lin Munan smiled politely before letting go of Zhou Qingyun's hand. He turned and walked over to Fan Xi, extending his hand like a gentleman. His tone was gentle, with a smile on his lips. "Comrade Fan, the talented picture book creator, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Fan Xi extended his hand and shook hands with him. "Producer Lin, nice to meet you!"

After a few people took their seats, the meeting officially began.

Lin Munan spoke first, "Comrade Fan's picture book, 'Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan,' is full of childlike innocence and creativity. Our studio has always been committed to producing richly engaging animated films, and I believe the combination of the two will be a truly remarkable success. However, I'd like to discuss some details with you two, which were also the result of discussions among our studio staff."

Fan Xi chuckled, "Editor Lin, feel free to speak!"

Zhou Qingyun also echoed from the side, "Yes, we came here to discuss the picture book adaptation with Producer Lin, so Editor Lin, if you have any ideas, just tell us directly!"

Lin Munan nodded and said, "The plot of the picture book 'Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan' is mainly heartwarming, but in order to make the animation more attractive, the production studio and I hope to add some intense conflicts to the story.

For example, we could have the Tuanyuan siblings and the neighbor's child fight over a toy, or even cause a conflict between the adults of the two families, to drive the plot forward. We believe this would make the story more dramatic and more appealing to the audience!"

Fan Xi smiled gently, his tone gentle and pleasant, but what he said was full of rejection: "My picture books convey the values of kindness and mutual assistance. I think overly intense conflicts are not suitable for children to read, as they will lead them in the wrong direction."

Furthermore, whether it's a picture book or an animated film, it's meant to be a parent-child educational work for children and parents to watch together. I hope they can feel love and tolerance in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere, rather than one filled with arguments and conflicts. I also don't think warmth and love can't attract attention."

Lin Munan didn't comment on Fan Yu's objection, but continued, "In terms of character design, our studio believes that Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan can be made more rebellious, perhaps by having them frequently go against their parents' wishes and sneak out to play. This will give the characters more personality and align with the current trend among young people pursuing individual liberation."

Fan Yu thought for a moment and expressed his opinion seriously, "I want to stick with the character settings in the picture book. In the picture book, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan are sensible and well-behaved children. Although they can be naughty occasionally, they are essentially kind and respectful of their elders.

Moreover, in this day and age, family education still places great emphasis on moral cultivation, and children are often in awe of their elders. I believe our roles should be grounded in reality and set a good example for children, not just following trends for their own sake!

Lin Munan curled his lips, his eyes brightening. He continued sharply, "In terms of visual style, the studio wanted to adopt an exaggerated, brightly colored style, similar to some popular commercial posters at the time, to enhance the visual impact. We felt that this would help the animation stand out from the crowd and attract the audience's attention."

Fan Xi shook his head, speaking directly and no longer as gentle as before. "I drew this picture book. I believe that colors can reflect a person's state of mind. I personally prefer warm and soft colors. I feel that this style can create a warm family atmosphere and fit the theme of the story.

Furthermore, our stories are about the little beauties in ordinary life, and soft colors can better convey this sentiment and make children feel the warmth of home. Excessively exaggerated and bright colors may make the picture seem impetuous and destroy the artistic conception of the story.

Lin Munan looked at Zhou Qingyun, who had been silent the whole time, and asked, "Comrade Fan has been expressing his opinions just now. What do you think, Director Zhou?"

Zhou Qingyun looked up at Lin Munan with a gentle smile on his face. "I think no one understands the original intention of picture book creation better than Comrade Fan. I support Comrade Fan's idea!"

I thought the atmosphere in the meeting room would become tense and oppressive as the discussion deepened and the differences between the two sides gradually widened. However, Lin Munan suddenly laughed heartily, and his usually serious and sharp expression became relaxed and cheerful...
