Director Liang looked at Xiao Yu in surprise and thought: As expected of a novelist, he came across his specialty, and every word he wrote is insightful and to the point!
Also, Mr. Xiao actually understands Xiao Yuer’s novels so well and analyzes them so thoroughly. Are all writers like this?
No wonder I heard that Mr. Xiao can earn tens of millions a year from his novels.
Hey! As expected, successful people should not be underestimated.
Earn tens of millions annually?
Liang Shuhua thought: "It's said that many people on Qimingxing earn tens of millions annually, some are short-lived, others remain at the top forever." She also wondered what Mr. Xiao's pen name was. Special Assistant Su had actually told her not to pry?
"So, if you want to retain readers after animating an IP novel, the most important thing is not the screenwriter's adaptation ability, but to respect the original work and not add unnecessary details. You can add some of the screenwriter's thoughts, but you must respect the original work, respect the original work, respect the original work. After all, the original intention of purchasing the IP is that the book is popular, and the reason for the book's popularity lies in the book itself. If you adapt it, wouldn't the money you spent on purchasing the IP be wasted?"
Director Liang: ...
"Wouldn't it be no longer fresh for readers?"
"Adapting the novel into an anime is a novel in itself for readers. If changes are necessary, make the scenes and character models more refined during the animation. After all, people are visual creatures. Even if the author says he looks ordinary at first, do we really have to make a normal model?
Furthermore, the plot needed to be tight. When we write novels, we sometimes spend time and effort emphasizing the details to make the plot richer, more visual, and more rhythmic. However, in anime adaptations, a single scene, a simple flashback, can sometimes convey the plot of several chapters.
Therefore, when it comes to animation, I personally recommend that, in order to avoid dragging out the plot, some scenes should be glossed over briefly. An episode of the animation should not be more than a few minutes long. If you just show the scenery all the time, it will lose the meaning of the animation."
Director Liang's expression became serious. She understood what Xiao Yu meant and felt that the other party's meaning was worthy of her attention.
But before she could continue listening, Xiao Yu said, "I've said everything I need to say. Director Liang, please convey this to me. I will not be attending this meeting for the time being. According to Director Liang, the screenwriters of the company are all well-known in the industry. I have little influence and have never written a script. Director Liang, if you are really willing to adapt the IP according to the author's ideas, please have someone adapt some content and send it to me first. After I review it, I will contact Venusstar."
Director Liang was stunned: What do you mean? Are you just letting go?
"Ahem, I'll be in the office this afternoon and leave at six. If you have anything, you can call me. By the way, I don't have your phone number yet." Xiao Yu finished speaking quickly and took out his cell phone.
Director Liang: ...
Why does she feel like she's been cheated, and her boss doesn't want to go to work and looks like he's about to run away?
Xiao Yu feigned composure and added Director Liang's phone number and WeChat, then hurried to his office. Later, realizing that he had accidentally fooled someone and successfully removed himself from the job, he felt quite guilty.
Arriving at the office, Xiao Yu unconsciously locked the door. He sat down at his desk and quickly pulled out his computer. It was past three in the afternoon. He still had more than two hours until his appointment with Mr. Zhou.
He was taken home yesterday and was thrown into bed. I didn't have time to update the article. Today I must update the ones I didn't update yesterday and save some drafts.
"Is there something wrong with the word count displayed?" Xiao Yu looked at the stable word count display, a little bit unbelieving.
He remembered that before he started yesterday, the word count in the document showed more than 90,000. He was thinking of trying harder to get 100,000 before getting off work, but now it shows more than 150,000 words.
Counting the time I spent typing yesterday, it seemed like I was typing from around 4:00 PM to around 9:00 PM, a little over five hours.
"So, I wrote over 50,000 words in five hours? How is that possible?"
Xiao Yu felt that there must be something wrong with the document.
However, when he dragged the mouse to the starting point, the number displayed on it was still: 58,574.
Xiao Yu: ...
He had wanted to revise the article he wrote yesterday, at least fix the typos, but now it was over 50,000 words? How could he even revise it? It would take until tomorrow to finish. Forget it, he'd just keep writing, hoping there wouldn't be too many typos.
At just six o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yu appeared at the door of Tianquan Building.
The M-brand car that had brought him there at noon had now been replaced with a low-key Hongqi. However, the rush hour he had imagined seemed to be non-existent.
Even if he took a car and left the entire Beidou Building area from Tianquan Building, there would not be many people leaving get off work on the road?
Isn't the closing time here 6pm?
Or is it that everyone... is rolling?
The car was driving on the busy highway, and the people around him had been reading documents since he got in. Xiao Yu took a glance and then looked away in self-humiliation.
There's no way. As for foreign languages, except English, he can barely tell which country they are from, like Japanese and Korean. For other languages, he can't even tell the difference.
He just took a look at the documents in front of Zhou Yanzhi and saw that they were in at least three or four languages.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but glance at Zhou Yanzhi's face. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses at the moment. He was originally a noble and reserved man, but under these glasses, he gave people a sense of being precious and unattainable.
