The Creator of the Second Dimension

　　 Of course, Xu Rui doesn't know about these internal entanglements. Now his main focus is on how to rebuild an animation company.

　　 Fortunately, his father left at least one studio for him, so Xu Rui doesn't have to worry about the most troublesome workplace problems.

　　 But people are still a big problem.

Let alone a large animation company like Rainbow Media, it is the most basic studio that can produce an animation independently. At least there must be a dedicated original artist, animator, photographer and producer, even if Xu Rui owns it. From the memory of the earth, I can independently direct the script and perform, but completing an animation is much more than that simple.

Xu Rui marked a series of positions in the document, and then crossed out several positions, including sound director, 3D production, producer, performance, etc. These parts can be outsourced, and there is no need for special recruitment for the time being. Part of it is that Xu Rui can do it concurrently.

His expectations for the new phantom animation are very simple. Xu Rui plans to build it into a small personal studio, starting with short animation films, and can take over short works such as advertisements, game titles, and promotional films, and then Slowly expand.

Xu Rui is actually not too worried about the money issue. In fact, with the current popularity of Star Voice, he wants to attract investment is very simple. Apart from asking, Xu Rui went to Weibo to register a verified account. The number of fans has reached 100,000, and these traffic alone are a lot of income.

　　 In this era, the means of monetizing traffic is relatively rudimentary, but it is enough for Xu Rui.

At the beginning of Xu Rui’s journey, he had a plan. The graduation presentation is a rare opportunity to attract attention from outsiders. If Xu Rui deals with it perfunctorily, he will wait until he graduates and then want to rely on his own production. It is somewhat difficult to be honest. .

　　 Xu Rui has no classes and has finished graduation. Now he is waiting for the final defense. Yi Qianqian is the only one in the family when he goes out to work.

　　 After thinking about it, Xu Rui changed his clothes, took the key and went out, and quickly took the subway to the Ningjiang High-tech Development Zone, and came to the front of the Phantom Animation building.

　　 He opened the iron gate, walked upstairs, then opened the folder, and counted the assets in the studio.

This is the old phantom movie. In the hand-painted era when celluloid animation was still needed, the most in the studio was not the computer, but the writing desk, and the shelf full of art editions and celluloid, one There is an old-fashioned camera on the table. This was the equipment used to make celluloid plates into film at that time. In that era, computers were not yet popular. Many times, animation production was like old movies, and it was really cut out of film. .

The paint was already air-dried. Xu Rui took out a file bag from the shelf and opened it. Inside was a slightly faded celluloid plate. He still remembered that when he was on the earth, he was very interested in these kinds of things when he was a child, but when he grew up, he The entire animation production industry has entered digitalization, and he has basically never touched these things.

　　 turned it around and found out that this is a famous movie of phantom animation, one of the cards in "Chaqi the Deer".

This animation fifteen years ago is the first independently created animation of Phantom Animation. It uses a somewhat naive animal anthropomorphism now. It uses the daily life between Chaqi the deer and other animals in the forest to advance the plot. Xu When Rui was a child, after school every Friday, he stood in front of the TV and waited to watch this animation.

Memories of deja vu also occur on the earth. Xu Rui first watched animations by relying on the translations broadcast every night on the TV station. From the four-wheel drive running on the track to the constantly climbing Chuangjie Mountain, he never knew it. From the Li Tianying warrior to the magic card girl who loves the enlightenment, it is these works that made Xu Rui join the animation industry when he grows up, hoping to create dreams for people.

Xu Rui put the celluloid board back in the file bag, and soon found a roll of film in a white box with the words "Chaqi Xiaolu, the 35th master tape" on it, and you can see the editing. Traces, this is the original film, and all the copies sent to the TV station afterwards are copies of this roll.

　　 "Thirty-five episodes, I remember..."

He murmured to himself, some memories emerged, and Xu Rui had a bold idea. He came to the projection room and blew off the dust on the old projector. After turning on the power, Xu Rui found that the old machine could still be used. .

　　 It took him a while to load the film into the projector, and with the ticking of gears, the animation fifteen years ago was projected again on the yellowed curtain.

The thirty-fifth episode of "Chaqi the Deer" is an episode in which Chachi and his friends are trapped in the mountains during a snowstorm. After an adventure, Chachi succeeds in getting out of the predicament. Due to the depiction of the wind and snow and the story full of metaphors And being praised is one of the several episodes that left a deep impression on the whole animation.

　　 Because the audio has been damaged a bit, the animation is silent, but seeing the blizzard that was completely hand-painted bit by bit, Xu Rui still felt the touch that the animation once brought to herself.

　　 At this moment, there was a noise from the door of the projection room, Xu Rui immediately became alert, picked up a stent and leaned in.

　　 Few people pass by the old park, maybe a thief.

　　 He raised his stick and trot out his head quickly, only to find a shaggy middle-aged uncle standing outside the screening room.

He looks about forty or fifty years old, with white sideburns, black and shiny head, strong build, big palms, wearing a khaki coat, wrinkled shirt, corduroy trousers, old leather shoes, and looks like those street streets Idle laid-off workers.

"who are you?"

　　 Xu Rui asked vigilantly, squeezing the stick in his hand.

　　 "No one has been here for more than ten years, who are you?"

　　 The uncle spoke with a low voice, but he didn't rush.

　　 "Legal speaking, I am the owner of this place."

　　 Xu Rui brightened his key and said, when he saw the uncle saw the key, he was a little surprised, and he probably confirmed that he was probably not a thief.

　　 "Is this finally sold?"

Uncle 　　 was a little emotional, looked around, then spoke.

　　 "I am the manager of the warehouse over there. I have been here for more than ten years. I saw the door of this building opened today, so I came up and took a look curiously."

　　 He pointed to a building in the distance, and when he turned around, he happened to see the footage playing in the projection room.

　　 "Are you still playing anime?"

"Oh yes......"

　　 Xu Rui just remembered the crunching projector, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, he returned to the projection room and pressed the pause button, and the picture was frozen in the wind and snow in the sky.

　　 "This animation is Chucky the Deer, my son used to like it very much."

Uncle 　　 said nostalgicly, staring at the mottled projection screen in a daze.

　　 "Uncle, you know this?"

　　 Xu Rui also followed his gaze and said to himself.

"The most commendable part of this episode is the blizzard scene. It is said that the original artist had a blast for a week and drew more than 800 original paintings for this short two-minute fragment. All the snowflakes were painted stroke by stroke. , The position of the same snowflake in different original paintings is different, which makes the whole picture feel astonishingly oppressive, and even becomes a long-term nightmare for some children..."

　　 As he talked, Xu Rui smiled again, realizing what he said, the uncle security guard also couldn't understand.

　　 "It seems that you know animation well."

Uncle 　　 said, a glimmer of admiration flashed in his eyes, but it quickly dimmed.

　　 "Yes, I am going to rebuild the animation company here, and I am checking the equipment."

　　 Hearing Xu Rui's words, the uncle was quite surprised. He looked up and down the very young man, and he stopped talking.

　　 "Since there is no problem, I should go back to duty, brother, goodbye when I have a chance."

　　 "Okay, go slowly, uncle."

Xu Rui watched the other party go downstairs and cleaned up the screening room. Only then did he remember a problem. He picked up his mobile phone and checked the Internet, only to suddenly find that the warehouse manager uncle pointed to the building as early as five years ago. People have left the building before, and there is no warehouse at all.
