Chapter 307 The Twin Towers
Mu Bai suggested that Wu Jun try to get Huang Yuze to paint the last picture of "Inuyasha".

If Huang Yuze's performance is stable, Mu Bai will consider letting him write a comic.

Even if Huang Yuze's level still needs to be improved, Mu Bai can use the system's rewards to open another manga.

But these plans can't be told to Huang Yuze in advance, Mu Bai really wants to see how Huang Yuze's patience is, if the patience is good, he plans to hand over the creation of the studio's comics to Huang Yuze in the future.

After learning about Huang Yuze's recent situation, Mu Bai called the animation team to talk again.

In order to prevent problems in the original painting or coloring process, Mu Bai set up an animation team consisting of two original painters and four original painting assistants.

Now that the animation editing work has been completed by Mu Bai "quickly and ruthlessly", this animation team has become dispensable.

In theory, it is better to exist. After all, the production of the animation is not completed in a day, and the original painting may need to be added or modified at any time.

But Mu Bai knew in his heart that there was nothing to modify or add to the whole animation, and it would be useless to keep this animation team.

So Mu Bai called the six people to the office and gave them new jobs: "Some time ago, the studio took over the work of several film and television singles from Shesheng.

"Especially the film and television single of "Chengdu", which needs to be produced as soon as possible, and I am going to hand over this work to you.

"Of course, this number of people is still not enough. I will transfer a few more original painters and a dozen original assistants into the group. Your main focus should be on the film and television singles. If there is anything on the "My Neighbor Totoro" you can do it. Easy to follow up."

Li Zhen, one of the original painters, said with a smile: "Finally, I've given us some time, my hands are itchy after two days of idleness."

"The first two days are for you to rest and rest. There are so many jobs in the studio, how can you be busy?" Mu Bai took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer and asked them to smoke by themselves:
"I have thought about it for the past two days. In the future, the animation group will be permanent like the comic group and mural group, and the game group will also be permanent in the future. After all, our studio has a lot of animation business now."

Two of the six people smoked, and took the cigarettes bluntly and began to puff.

Li Zhen's eyes lit up when she heard Mu Bai's words. If the animation team is permanent, it means that there will be a new team leader!

Mu Bai saw that the two original painters had understood his meaning in seconds, but the four original painter assistants hadn't understood the meaning of the permanent animation group.

Mu Bai hasn't decided on who will be the team leader, so he didn't continue this topic, he continued: "This time the film and television single will be made into a beautiful three-dimensional animation!
"We want to use this short animation film as our promotional film and release it in Qin State to promote more short animation business and stereoscopic image business.

"Liu Zhe will talk to you about the specific work plan tomorrow, and the animation team will be in charge of Liu Zhe from now on."

After finishing the arrangement of the animation group, Mu Bai called Bai Xiaoqi again without stopping: "How is the essay solicitation that you were asked to do on Guofeng.com?"

After receiving the work of several video singles from Shesheng, Mu Bai immediately asked Bai Xiaoqi to start a solicitation on Guofeng.com again for each song.

This time, it was not as rushed as last time. The call for essays had been going on for more than half a month, and this time it was a prize-winning essay. Once the story was selected, a commission of [-] yuan would be given.

For a short film of three to four minutes, only one to two thousand words are enough to describe a story, and this commission can be regarded as very generous.

Even if it is not adopted, Mu Bai still intends to bind more than a dozen excellent stories into a book and publish them, firstly to increase the number of products in the online mall, and secondly to generate income for the users of Guofeng.com.

However, Mu Bai estimates that the final winners, and most of those who meet the publishing standards, may be professional writers attracted by the bonus.

No matter which aspect it is, the shortage of short stories in Guofeng Studio will be able to be resolved.

In the future, Mu Bai wants to develop the production of animated short films into an industry, and the short and medium stories needed cannot be solved by just one or two people.

Supplementing this shortcoming with the hundreds of thousands of users of Guofeng.com is a strategy that is beneficial to many parties.

Bai Xiaoqi fanned the smell of cigarettes left in the office with her hand: "Sure enough, after the announcement of the commission and publishing rewards, everyone's emotions are high. We have received many excellent stories."

Mu Bai brought a bottle of drink to Bai Xiaoqi: "That's good, you can collect short stories about the song "Chengdu" in a while, choose two or three good stories and show them to me, and announce the end of the competition." Call for Submissions for this song."

Bai Xiaoqi took the drink: "Is there something wrong with the sudden termination?"

"This was an oversight before." Mu Bai leaned back in his chair and said, "Let's terminate it in three days. As long as the other songs have three or four good stories, the termination time must be announced as soon as possible.

"And to be clear, it doesn't matter if you don't have time to write it, or don't have time to submit it to us, because we will continue to conduct such collections in the future."

Bai Xiaoqi took two sips of her drink and nodded.

"Oh, by the way, I wrote a novel with more than 20 words." Mu Bai took out the USB flash drive where "Twin Towers" was stored: "You find someone to help me correct the typos, and then publish it on the website Bar."

Bai Xiaoqi was taken aback, is Director Mu finally going to reach out to the literary world?

"Has this book ever been published?" she asked.

"No."

"Then put it on the Internet?"

Seeing Bai Xiaoqi's surprised expression, Mu Bai remembered that unlike his own Blue Star, there are so many original literary works on the Internet.

Most people think that posting books online is a means of propaganda.

Mu Bai smiled and said: "Then I will be the first person to eat crabs. There is no need to design gimmicks, just say it is the first work on the Internet."

Bai Xiaoqi asked: "Do you really want to publish it first? I can contact..."

Mu Bai waved his hand: "Since we are a website, we must bring more benefits to the users of the website, and explore new ways of some industries within our ability."

The image of Mu Bai in front of Bai Xiaoqi's eyes immediately grew taller.

It's just that she doesn't know, Mu Bai knows which direction to explore.

After Mu Bai finished solving these trivial matters, the studio also ushered in Chu Qi's audition.

As the director and main creator, Mu Bai is the most important judge of this audition. In addition, Qu Xiesheng and Fan Ze, the director of the performance department, also came.

They gave Mu Bai full autonomy, and the meaning of coming to this audition to support him was more than helping Mu Bai choose candidates, and they could also take the opportunity to check the level of students in their department.

Huo Pingwan and the other three will also conduct interviews with the students. They are all majors in the acting department. They are familiar with dubbing and have rich experience. Compared with the students of the academy, they are more competitive.

Originally, Mu Bai wanted Huo Pingwan to audition for the role of sister in the film, but Huo Pingwan was too busy and just wanted to play a cameo, and finally decided to match the role of mother.

Then the role of the protagonist sister has become the main object of everyone's competition.

Miao Xiaole wanted to interview for this role, but her tone was too active, and she didn't have that mature feeling.

After the audition interview started, Mu Bai thought that Xiang Shuxuan could win the leading role, but he didn't expect to see Xiang Shuxuan among the dozen or so interviewees.

In the end, the role of sister was won by a girl from the dubbing department, and Mu Bai could hear the cheers outside the interview hall.

Mu Bai smiled and said, "Luck!"

Several strong contenders did not participate in the interview, and the protagonist was almost pie in the sky.

Qu Xiesheng smiled and said: "Luck is also a part of ability."

Mu Bai was deeply convinced.

The interviews continued, and finally Miao Xiaole was interviewed for the role of his younger brother, the younger sister in the original "My Neighbor Totoro".

Qi Heng interviewed for the role of father.

To Mu Bai's surprise, Xiang Shuxuan's interview turned out to be the role of mother-in-law, with a slightly hoarse and vicissitudes of voice, which almost made Mu Bai immediately decide to use her to voice her mother-in-law.

And Zhao Jie's ever-changing voice also opened Mu Bai's eyes. He first succeeded in getting the role of Totoro.

The character has no lines and uses roars entirely to express different moods.

Zhao Jie's interpretation of the several roars was very good, but the roars were too cat-like, so Mu Bai allowed his voice to be rougher.

Then Zhao Jie went to interview for the role of the neighbor's boy, again overwhelming the crowd, and easily won the role.

With the confirmation of the voice actor, the dubbing work officially started on the second day.

Mu Bai sat in the recording studio and watched closely. The dubbing was the last critical step. The actors needed to use their voices to make the characters come alive.

Qi Heng and Miao Xiaole's dubbing skills may indeed not be as good as Zhao Jie, but they are both veterans, and they are very natural when dubbing, but it is easier to meet Mu Bai's requirements.

Ordinary students, because of lack of dubbing experience, were nervous when they came on stage. If they failed to meet Mu Bai's requirements, they would be even more nervous if they were asked to start over.

Mu Bai reminded them not to be nervous, but they were so nervous that their hands trembled.

Mu Bai asked them to take a rest. They felt that they had let Mu Bai down, and they were very nervous. They were even more nervous when they played again.

What did Mu Bai see?Qi Heng and Miao Xiaole are halfway through the dubbing, and many of them haven't passed a sentence yet.

It is said that several students saw Mu Bai now, and their calves were trembling.

Mu Bai didn't expect everyone's ability to withstand stress to be so poor, so he took the initiative to take the minibus with everyone to the dubbing company when he started to commute to get off work.

In the minibus, Mu Bai chatted and joked with everyone. At first, everyone was quite restrained, but gradually they let go. When they saw Mu Bai again, they were not so nervous.

In addition, Mu Bai called more than a dozen of them, men and women, to drink together, and got to know them a little better.

What makes Mu Bai helpless is that Xiang Shuxuan must come every time he drinks.

Mu Bai never planned to call her, because she was full of emotions when she dubbed, and she did it very well, there was no need to relax at all.

But now that she is here, Mu Bai asked her to share her experience in the dubbing process with everyone.

She shared with everyone: "You just drink more water, and you can make a good voice by drinking more water."

As a result, the next day everyone hadn't said a few words in front of the microphone, and they had to rush out to go to the bathroom. Some were embarrassed to say it, but in the dubbed voice, Mu Bai could also hear that there seemed to be an urgency to urinate a feeling of.

Just when Mu Bai wondered if it was necessary to correct this unhealthy trend, he found that everyone really relaxed a lot.

Take a closer look, as long as everyone is nervous, they will immediately go to drink water. After drinking the water, it seems that they are really so nervous.

During lunch, Mu Bai made a special trip to ask Xiang Shuxuan what is the reason for this trick?
Xiang Shuxuan smiled and said in a low voice: "Actually, the dozen or so people who have passed the interview are all relatively high-level in the acting department. As long as they can perform at a normal level, they can basically meet your requirements.

"As for the trick of drinking water, it's the same principle as you explained to everyone. Nervousness is an emotion. Telling everyone to drink water can make them less nervous is to give them psychological hints.

"As long as they drink water, it is equivalent to accepting this psychological suggestion, and they will definitely be able to relieve their tension."

Mu Bai smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to understand psychology!"

"Of course!" Xiang Shuxuan is much more talkative in front of Mu Bai now than at the beginning: "I have cured the mental illnesses of three psychiatrists, can I not understand psychology?"

Mu Bai thought it was a joke: "Is it so powerful?"

"You don't know if you haven't seen a psychiatrist." Xiang Shuxuan mentioned the process of seeing a psychiatrist in front of Mu Bai for the first time, and finally she concluded: "Actually, most psychiatrists also have mental illnesses.

"Or in this society, it is strange that there are no mental illnesses."

Mu Bai nodded: "I agree with you, have you seen a psychiatrist, do you feel better?"

Xiang Shuxuan sneered: "The person who persuaded me to see a psychiatrist is sick. My lover died, and I was heartbroken. This is a normal emotional outlet. Why do they think it is a mental illness?

"Is it normal for me to turn around and forget about that relationship? Those who persuaded me should see a psychiatrist. They have almost forgotten what a relationship is.

"They envy me that I still have feelings, but at the same time they are afraid that everyone will find out that they have no feelings, so they persuade me."

Mu Bai ate his food: "There is nothing wrong with you psychologically, but you like to tell the truth too much, just because of this, you should go see a doctor."

……

On the weekend, as usual, Bai Kun logged onto Guofeng.com as soon as he turned on his computer.

Mu Bai posted a book on the Internet two days ago, and Bai Kun, who likes science fiction, was attracted after reading a chapter.

That story takes place on a strange planet where one side is always day and the other side is always night.

The sun is as big as a washbasin, but the heat given to the planet is the same as a normal sun.

In addition, most of this planet is desolate, and the wild is full of mutated creatures. There are two tall towers, one black and one white, which symbolize the authority of the ruler.

They reject all ideas related to literature and art, and use cruel means to rule the people on this planet.

These settings made Bai Kun feel very novel, and wanted to buy a book to read, but after a search, he found that the book on the website was actually the first release.
