Chapter 803 Hey, this is the world I want?
"Why don't you sell it?"
"Probably because...you should know that your company has an industry-class a-level animation production company like Sun Rise. If we are also acquired, the name Traveler will gradually become unreal. I don't want them to poach the best people under my command, leaving only an empty shell..."
The two sat shoulder to shoulder on the bench in the hospital corridor. At midnight, Su Jing couldn't fall asleep because of her coma during the day. Before the discharge procedures were completed, she chatted in the corridor to pass the time.
"I will protect you." Lu Mengyao leaned on the cold stainless steel chair back and tightened her body a little bit. Su Jing glanced at her and took off her heavy coat, but she blocked her back, "You are a patient, you might as well put it on."
"The biggest problem is actually not this. I just act as a president and supervisor... I want to do the animation I like." Su Jing raised his head and looked at the white corridor lights. "I don't want to do the assigned tasks. Of course, if you have a good enough story, I am willing to do it, but now I'm working together like this? "Traveler" is my treasure alone, the most important part of my life... I really don't want to sell it to others."
"Free." Lu Mengyao's voice became a little vague. She supported her chin with one hand, "It's so good."
"I actually always have a story that I want to make an animation," Su Jing continued, "I have been thinking about this story since a few years ago. It is an urban detective theme. Of course, the audience of the criminal investigation theme itself is limited. It is even less audience than the works of Otome. The protagonist group is still a traditional combination of detectives + assistants, a cold and vicious beautiful girl detective, and a gentle and handsome assistant..."
"It sounds a bit familiar." Lu Mengyao's voice became lighter and lighter, "Isn't the famous heroine and male protagonist in the past few years not the same pattern?"
"It sounds like this, but the heroine here is better and the hero is more complicated." Su Jing smiled, "And the end of the first season of the story is when the heroine discovers that the cases she has been pursuing, the conspiracy network hidden behind them, the main messenger... is the hero who has always been with her. The conflict is brewing here to the extreme because she has indeed... fallen in love with him."
"That……?"
"Zhang Li is tense here to the limit. She goes to him rationally and collapses. Her side as a genius detective was completely overwhelmed by the emotional side of her. She wants to catch him, prevent him from leaving her side, and even willing to give up her principle of pursuing the truth, in exchange for a... life that can be with him. However, she was rejected by the male protagonist because he also loved her deeply and did not want the darkness she carried to drag her down the quagmire."
"It seems a bit far-fetched. It's a little bit versatile..."
"Well, there will be various background arrangements to strengthen the rationality." Su Jing was silent for a while, "and then rationality came back, she... arrested him who did not resist. The story was drawn with a comma here. At that time, no matter what the sales volume was, I think I would do the second season. Because the second season is the focus of the story."
“…”
"After the hero served one year in prison, the criminal network he left behind continued to work. It makes people wonder if all her previous judgments were wrong. Everything was like another him in the world. In order to pursue the truth, she suffered several setbacks and then went to the prison of severe prisoners. Using her influence to be imprisoned secretly, he and her reorganized with her to pursue new criminals under strict supervision."
Su Jing paused for a moment and continued: "A new character is added here, the male protagonist's twin sister, the main messenger of all this, trying to get him out of his sin by his own actions. And the male protagonist must be among the two girls..."
He suddenly realized that Lu Mengyao had no sound anymore. When he turned around and looked, she had already leaned her head on his shoulder and fell asleep.
“…”
He stared at her sleeping face, and his heart suddenly started to beat shyly. Su Jing held her shoulders, gently pulled out his body, then leaned over and kissed her gently.
It was very light, very light. It didn't even feel much, nor the kind of beautiful feeling he imagined, but just a little touch that was invisible. He sat there, waited for a long time, and then sighed softly: "Because he couldn't give up... those times with her. Generally speaking, it was a story that was partial to the romance."
“…”
Of course, there was no response.
He picked her up gently, lighter than he thought, and then carried her to his bed, gently put it down, covered her quilt. Then he walked to the corridor and sat back on the bench he had just now.
Generally speaking, I would smoke a cigarette now. But Su Jing is a smoking ban, so he put the pillow he brought from the bed next door under his head, lay on the bench and started thinking about the plot of the story, and fell asleep as he thought about it.
The word "plane traveler" comes from a fantasy novel written by Su Jing when he was young. Of course, that story only exists in his private notebook, and only Lu Mengyao has read it. This serious friend gave a very pertinent evaluation, perhaps it was her encouragement that made Su Jing become the creator today. In the past ten years since he entered the industry, the naive story back then only brings back his memories when he sees the name of this company.
I still remember that it was a very kingly, traditional story, telling the protagonist's adventure in a wonderful world, gradually collecting reliable companions along the way, gradually becoming stronger, and finally changing the world... Such a story. Even a long time ago, such stories have been flooded, but time has not faded this type of story. Even today, the kingly story always has many audiences, perhaps because teenage readers will never disappear.
When people are young, they always want to take risks.
The story Su Jing and Plane Traveler Club are novels similar to the urban superpower themes, which are somewhat similar to the season's "Wenhao Wild Dog". However, his evaluation of the original work of "Wenhao Wild Dog" is not particularly high. In a rather offensive way, it is a work that "specially sells characters". It is not that selling characters is not good, but the original author Asaguchi Kafka showed a very strong screenwriter's strength in his previous works. This feature is not reflected in this comic adaptation work, and the adaptations of his works are always poor...
This work, called "Strategic Angel", can be said to be an ambition work that combines urban superpowers, anti-war, international politics, history, etc. Of course, in order to avoid certain embarrassment, the world where the story takes place is an underworld, completely imitating the real world, but the name is completely different. For example, the United States of New Rome, the Pan-Asia-Pacific Republic, the European Economic Community (this seems to be unnecessary to change), the Russian Empire (it doesn't exist anyway), etc. In terms of style, it is a rather gloomy heterogeneous work. Although it is underworld and fantasy theme, Su Jing's idea is a relatively realistic and a more naturalistic description method.
As expected, this animation exudes a sense of a stunning street.
Although there was a production committee from mainland China paying the bill, Su Jing still tried to do the story better. The original work of this work was quite impressive for him, and it also added some accumulation to the creation of the detective work that had not yet been named.
Even when he was dreaming, he would keep thinking about these things. He would think about things day and night, and sometimes he could enter the story he was creating. This time, he came clearly and clearly into the scene of the detective story, and his perspective was the male lead.
He won't explain it. But the protagonist and female lead in this story are based on him and Lu Mengyao.
Su Jing looked at Lu Mengyao who was biting her lips and holding back tears, and her heart suddenly felt a sharp pain. For the sake of the principle of drama, the two of him would part ways at the end of the first part. However, now in the dream, he was no longer afraid or timid. He stepped forward and held her in his arms with force.
"Let's be together." He said in her ear.
At this moment, when I fainted before... that strange feeling appeared again.
He suddenly felt that there was someone behind him. Su Jing turned around and saw a tall girl standing there. He was looking at him sadly. Without words, he already knew who this was, the sister who would only appear in the second season. However, before this, he had never considered his sister's specific character, but now the person standing in front of him had the details all over his body, which made him realize in an instant what past the person standing in front of him had and what kind of passion he had for him.
There was a faint ethereal ribbon on her body, connected into his body.
"Brother." She smiled, "Don't forget me."
But you are just a character I imagined... Su Jing was a little confused in my dream. There was no sister in my life. However, in the dream, these logics have become ambiguous and vague, and he is not sure whether he has a sister. It was like after a long time in an instant, he suddenly realized that he really had a sister.
The next morning, he was woken up by Lu Mengyao holding the inspection report.
"……Um?"
"I have bad news to tell you." The friend took the report and looked down at his wrinkled face coldly.
"Ah..." Su Jing sat up with some difficulty, rubbed his face, and was silent for a while, "Tell me, what kind of terminal illness is it?"
"...Inadequate exercise. Hypoglycemia." Lu Mengyao kicked him with the tip of her shoe, "You should pay attention to exercise in your daily life. The doctor said that you should rest for two days."
"There is no time to rest now." Su Jing took out his cell phone and made two calls. At 8 o'clock in the morning, Sadako and Gai Qi didn't answer the phone. According to the usual work schedule, the two of them should have just lying down and fell asleep. At this moment, they couldn't wake up even if they rub their faces (he tried it secretly). "...My biological clock is out of sync with them, which is a bit troublesome, and they have to fall back again."
"Speaking of it, the animation you mentioned last night." Lu Mengyao said, "When are you going to do it?"
“Eh?”
"That detective story is a bit more romance." She raised the breakfast paper bag in her hand, "Let's talk about it on the specific way. Take you home first? Or to the company?"
Su Jing habitually wanted to go to the company, but after thinking about it, he still smiled bitterly: "Let's go back to my house first."
Lu Mengyao had been to his house several times and knew the road, and soon arrived. When she entered the door, she saw Sadako Yamamura's shoes scattered in the east and west at the entrance of the entrance door, and her handbag was thrown directly on the ground. It was obvious that the painter was so tired that he was about to die on the ground when he returned home.
The advantage of having a colleague in the shared house is that Su Jing can sometimes enjoy some sharing of housework, but considering that both of them are high-pressure workaholics, the home is not very tidy. The biggest use of the kitchen is to heat microwave food, occasionally cook noodles, make breakfast, etc. The fire is not often done during the rest of the time.
"Living under the same roof with a beauty, it must be very good." Lu Mengyao briefly talked to him along the way about the details of the animation, and did not mention the acquisition again. Su Jing couldn't figure out what her attitude was. Lu Mengyao always spoke with a faint sense of unquestionableness, which made people unable to figure out what she was thinking. Although she was light when she asked the question, Su Jing felt the sensitivity of the question and did not dare to neglect it.
"It's definitely not as good as you think." Su Jing sighed, "There is no Romantic time. When I get home every day, I don't even want to take a shower. I don't know how many times I lie down with my clothes... I just fell asleep like a pig."
Lu Mengyao took off her shoes and wandered around. The door of Sadako Yamamura's room was closed, but she turned the handle away as soon as she turned the door. She raised her eyebrows, did not comment, and then opened the refrigerator and looked. There were more seasonings than ingredients, filled with energy drinks and frozen instant food.
After a circle, she shook her head and sighed: "A typical era of material civilization."
"You always feel a little subtle irony." Su Jing had a rare time to have some leisure time. How long has this been the first time in? He put down his bag and started to make tea. Lu Mengyao touched the TV that had not been turned on for a long time, and flicked off the little bit of ashes from his fingertips.
"You..." she sighed, "How can you take care of your future girlfriend if you can't even take good care of yourself?"
"There's no way." Su Jing smiled bitterly, "Otherwise, I won't get married."
