The Late School
Chapter 14 I'm Performing My Strength
At 7:30 in the morning, Zhang Tan came to the company.Luo Ming hasn't come yet, and the office windows are closed tightly, making him a little stuffy.
He put down his backpack, walked to the window, opened the window, and let in fresh air. There was a lot of traffic on Yong'an Street, and noise came in with the air.
Luo Ming likes to be quiet, so the windows are always closed and the air conditioner is always on. Before he comes, he needs to change the air in the room.
Zhang Tan found a kettle in the corner and touched it. There was a layer of dust on his hand, which seemed useless for a long time. He washed both inside and out, filled the water dispenser with water, and plugged it in. He took out the Lushan cloud and mist he had brought from his backpack, as well as a thermos cup and a teapot.
The water boiled and I made a pot of tea. It was a few minutes after 8 o'clock. It was estimated that Luo Ming was about to arrive. Zhang Tan closed the windows, turned on the air conditioner, and switched to ventilation mode. The color in the office was single. The grass comes, embellished with some green, eye-catching.
After a while, Luo Ming opened the door and said strangely: "The office looks a bit different. Have you cleaned it?"
Zhang Tan smiled and said, "Burn a pot of tea, and taste it."
"I'm interested." Luo Ming poured a glass with a smile, and said to Zhang Tan after drinking, "Just follow what you wrote, and add a Wuwu."
Zhang Tan didn't have much surprise, nodded and said hello.
Luo Ming went on to say: "I have already written the plot of the first 5 episodes. You are responsible for adding the plot of Mo Wu today. The principle is that it cannot affect the main line."
"No problem." Zhang Tan put down the tea cup, filled his thermos cup with tea, put it on hand, turned on the computer, and went to work.
Luo Ming's personality is a bit dull, and he doesn't like chatting much.
Zhang Tan is too.
When the two got up to work, no one spoke, and the office seemed very quiet, only the sound of the computer keyboard being hit, and the gurgling sound of water coming from the drinking fountain from time to time.
Joining the role of Wuwu, but it can't affect the main line, so it is actually gagging and mediating the atmosphere. Zhang Tan firmly grasps this principle and tries to establish the image of Wuwu as soon as possible within the range of options.
After finishing the writing in the afternoon, Luo Ming took the script and went to discuss with the chief director. In the end, the director had to check it.
Not long after, Luo Ming came back and said that the director agreed, Zhang Tan was slightly relieved, and the role of Wu Wu was finally determined.
Luo Ming encouraged two sentences, and then said: "This is good news, and there is also bad news. The chief director asked us to take out the scripts of the next five episodes within three days. Time is tight. I will write the first two episodes and the last three episodes. Let's write about it, how about it?"
The animation is grouped. The first 5 episodes are produced by one group. After a few days, the production of the other 5 episodes is started by another group. This will ensure an orderly progress.
Luo Ming will discuss the storyboard with the first group tomorrow, and has no time to write the script. Seeing that Zhang Tan has a stable performance and strong ability, he wants him to participate and try.
Zhang Tan is of course no problem, I can't ask for it.
"Then let's take a look at the main storyline." Luo Ming said.
In the next three days, Zhang Tan devoted himself to the creation of the script. On the basis of maintaining the same style as the first five episodes, he made some micro-innovations around the main storyline. The whole process went smoothly. It was always a feeling of restraint.
Luo Ming read the three-episode scripts he wrote, made a little modification, left it roughly as it is, integrated the two episodes he wrote, a total of 5 episodes, printed it out and handed it to the chief director for review.
"Is this written by the newcomer you brought?" The chief director was surnamed Fu. After reading five episodes of the script, he turned to the next three episodes, watched it again, and asked Luo Ming curiously.
Luo Ming raised his eyebrows involuntarily and said, "It's called Zhang Tan, he wrote it."
Director Fu smiled and put the script neatly on his hand, covered it with his palm, and said, "It's pretty good, no wonder you got caught so quickly. I have no problem with the script, it's very good."
Luo Ming has a wealth of experience in projects, and it can be said that he has experienced many battles, but he still feels relaxed when he hears this sentence.As a screenwriter, the most difficult thing is not to conceive the script, but to discuss the script with the superior, especially if he meets the layman and the expert who can kill the popularity, he has seen a female screenwriter crying.
"Shall we have a meal together after get off work? Do you have time?"
After returning, Luo Ming asked Zhang Tan to write and draw on the desk.
Zhang Tan can tell from Luo Ming's expression that the conversation with the chief director should go smoothly. That is to say, the script for the 5 episodes just turned in passed, so he didn't ask much, and said with a smile: "I know there is a good restaurant. "
"Then follow you later, do you drive or sit with me?"
Zhang Tan has no car.
"Take you."
There is still half an hour to get off work, Luo Ming said to leave now, it is not too late.
The two packed their things, Luo Ming saw the manuscript paper on Zhang Tan's desk with some patterns painted on it. He glanced at it casually, then suddenly turned his head and stared at it. : "This is what you painted?"
Zhang Tan packed up his backpack and said, "I don't know if the character fits the style of the story."
Luo Ming tut was amazed, but Zhang Tan still had this manuscript. The manuscript paper depicts a scene where the protagonist and Wuwu are standing by the river and confronting the river monster in the river. If you remember correctly, this is episode 6 In one of the stories, with the help of Mo Wu, the protagonist defeated the river demon hard, obtained the demon pill, and got the first substantial increase in strength.
This is a very important plot climax.
Although Zhang Tan painted a still picture, he was quite demeaned. It made people feel the tension and tension after the picture.
"It's pretty good, and it's very consistent with what I imagined. Tomorrow I can use this to talk to the storytellers for reference," Luo Ming said.
After the animation script is determined, the next step is to draw the storyboard, that is, to transform the text into a picture. This requires the screenwriter and the storyboarder to communicate fully and understand each other's intentions.
The two closed the office door and left the building. Under Zhang Tan's guidance, they drove for more than ten minutes and came to an inconspicuous restaurant.
Although the environment is not tall, but the dishes are very good, Luo Ming is full of praise.
After eating, Luo Ming received a call from his wife. Zhang Tan guessed from the content and tone of the speech, which is not difficult to guess.
Luo Ming is in his 40s. He has been married a long time ago. He wears a wedding ring on his finger. Sometimes he brings his own lunch at noon. The colorful and delicate things he plays are very seductive and delicate. The lady prepared it at first glance.
Seeing him hung up, Zhang Tan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law's phone number?"
Luo Ming put away his mobile phone: "Let me go back to help my daughter do homework."
Then he said helplessly: "The child is in the third year of middle school, and I can't do some homework. I have to use my wife's brains and work hard."
Zhang Tan smiled and said, "Then go back quickly."
Luo Ming: "No hurry, I'll take you home first."
"Don't bother, I take the subway here, and it will be there in ten minutes."
Luo Ming finally drove away by himself. Zhang Tan took the subway back to West Chang'an Avenue. As soon as he arrived at Little Red Horse Academy, he saw two little girls standing under the mulberry tree.
It is already nine o'clock in the evening, and the children are all playing in the activity room, only these two.
Zhang Tan knows them, one is Xiaomi and the other is Meng Chengcheng. Seeing him suddenly appear, the two children are obviously startled, like thief, their eyes are looking randomly.
Am I so scary?Zhang Tan said, "What are you doing outside? Go back to the classroom and play, there are mosquitoes outside."
Meng Cheng Cheng nodded ignorantly, turned and left, only looking back in three steps.
As for Xiaomi, she didn't leave, looking up at the tree with her head held up, sneaking.
Zhang Tan followed her gaze to the mulberry tree, and it was his turn to be taken aback.
I saw a little girl in red hugging a tree trunk and sitting on a tree branch. Seeing him looking over, she waved her hand with a smile and said triumphantly: "I am Aphrodite, I am performing my strengths. ."
