"How much were those shipments?"

At five o'clock in the afternoon, after the meeting, Meng Huo asked the secretary about the surrounding shipments.

"Thanks to those students, another group of people will be arranged to work overtime at night, and all the orders will be sent out before dawn tomorrow."

The secretary replied with a smile, Han Xuan and Liu Yi are now studying in the city of Suhua University, and they have established a comic club with the help of Phoenix Company. When there was a shortage of manpower last night, Meng Huo thought of the four of them. It was the people brought by the four of them.

"Those college students are quite capable!"

Hearing the secretary's answer, Meng Huo breathed a sigh of relief. The surrounding area was sent within a day. This speed is very good and can be accepted by buyers.

However, this is not all due to the students. Meng Huo notified the manufacturer last night, and sent them the list of buyers who purchased a single peripheral during the day, asking them to help deliver the goods. The batch of orders placed in Phoenix Company are all mixed orders, which cannot be integrated by a single manufacturer.

The surrounding delivery problem was solved, and Meng Huo then found Zhou Qian.

"This is the plan, and it will be handed over to you later."

He handed Zhou Qian a thick plan, which was the result of his day, and Meng Huo asked the person in charge of promotion and marketing to stay up late to make some plans. Then he started a meeting early in the morning to discuss the feasibility of these plans, then coordinated with various departments, and finally had to fax to Xu Jing in Ninghai to confirm that there were no loopholes before the matter was settled.

For such a matter, Meng Huo was busy all day long, and he didn't even have time to meet the four friends. However, his speed is already astonishing in the eyes of outsiders. It takes ten days and a half months for other companies to formulate a plan. He completed all the previous procedures in one day. It was almost implemented.

Meng Huo is not responsible for the specific implementation. He handed over the plan to Zhou Qian, and Zhou Qian could just follow the above.

"Okay, no problem, I'll make it work!"

Zhou Qian said with red eyes that her eyes were bloodshot, not because of crying, but because of staying up late. She was shocked by the sales volume yesterday, and the development in the past six months was not as strong as yesterday. Zhou Qian was so excited that she couldn't sleep. She stayed up late last night and worked all night. Although her eyes are red now, her face is still not very tired.

After giving the plan and explaining some things that Zhou Qian needed to pay attention to, Meng Huo turned around and left. Before Zhou Qian encountered unsolvable troubles, he could temporarily put down the surrounding business. This matter dragged him on for a day, and he had other things to do - such as holding a celebration banquet for the members of the animation production department.

The success of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" is inseparable from the hard work of the animation department staff, and the animation is over. Although there are still some fragmentary follow-up paintings to be done, there is no need to rush. Meng Huo planned to give these employees a vacation.

"Everyone can rest for a few days, go home, play, have paid vacation, and you will come back to work next Monday - but don't rush to leave tonight, you will attend the celebration banquet at noon tomorrow, There is a bonus." After Meng Huo announced in the animation department, the employees who had been busy for several months cheered excitedly.

"It's great, it's over!"

"Teacher He Xi, how much is the bonus?"

"Different jobs are different. The core painters are the highest, each with 8,000, but don't worry... the lowest is also 4,000."

Meng Huo didn't hide it, and this sentence aroused the excitement of the employees again. The bonus of 4,000 to 8,000 is too much, and this bonus will not conflict with salary and year-end bonus. It is only the bonus for the work of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica", and other employees in the animation department do not have this bonus.

However, some people were pleasantly surprised and some were worried. Although it was a good thing to get the bonus, once "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" ended, according to Phoenix Company's previous plan, the staff here had to be reorganized.

'Island' is the code name of this animation department. Its positioning was finalized during the production of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica". Several other animation departments are mainly responsible for the development and broadcast of feature-length animations. Afterwards, "Island" will be responsible for the production of short animations and animated films, and the requirements for the quality of the members are the highest.

He Xi personally serves as the person in charge of this department. He plans to launch at least three works every year, and all of them are top-notch works. The members here enjoy twice the salary of members of other animation departments, and it is also the most honorable department in the entire Phoenix company. Of course... the competition is brutal too.

Although "Magical Girl Madoka Magica" has given the current members a great advantage of staying behind, the other two animation departments also have a lot of eye-catching talents. After this animation ends, I don't know how many old people will be replaced.

This system can ensure that the 'island' will become stronger and stronger over time. It is not a place for ordinary employees, but Meng Huo can no longer have extra sympathy. If he wants to launch more and better animations, he must improve the level of the animation production team. Now his animation team is not as strong as the angels of Zhongxia Company.

If it was the same scenario, 'Island' would definitely be abused by the angels.

Everyone has gone so far, of course Meng Huo can't rest on his laurels, and even if they change employees, they won't be kicked out. The employees replaced by "Island" will be assigned to the other two animation departments. "Pokemon" and "Detective Conan" are both full-length animations that are hot with bare hands, and the treatment of employees is no worse than that of other places.

It is precisely because of this that some employees knew that they might be replaced, but they still did not come out to complain. Although 'Island' is good, it also has a lot of work pressure. Maybe it is more comfortable to go to the other two animation departments.

After a few orders, Meng Huo walked out of the animation department, and Qin Ya was with him.

"Teacher He Xi, has the next animation been decided?"

When it was far away from the animation department, Qin Ya couldn't wait to ask.

"I haven't decided yet, but I want to try making an animated movie first."

Meng Huo replied with a smile that "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" was a big success this time, but he did not give up his idea of ​​making an animated film. TV and movie theaters are superficially similar but completely different things. He wants to watch animations in movie theaters. The visual enjoyment must surpass that of TV, and there are not many competitors for animated movies now, so there is a lot of room for him to do so.

"Animated movie? What animated movie?"

Qin Ya was very pleasantly surprised. She had never made animation before. This time she participated in the production of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" for the purpose of dealing with angels at first, but her purpose changed as she continued to do it. She fell in love with the feeling of making animation, especially It was because she saw her paintings being sought after by so many viewers on TV that she felt particularly satisfied.

If you make an animated film, wouldn't it be nice to see your own paintings displayed in the cinema?

"I said I haven't made up my mind... Well, it just so happens..." Meng Huo stopped and turned to ask Qin Ya: "What do you think is the timing for the release of the theatrical version of "Magic Girl Madoka"?"

Qin Ya's eyes widened immediately, like a gong: "Mr. He Xi, "Magic Girl Madoka" has ended, and it has such a perfect ending, how can you still release the theater version? Go on?... You must have planned a theatrical version from the beginning, right?"

Meng Huo nodded: "I think this story can still be written. Although the ending is good, don't you think we can have another magical twist? The role of Homura can have a better performance in the theatrical version..."

He was interrupted by Qin Ya shaking his hand before he finished speaking.

"Stop, stop, stop! Teacher He Xi, don't give me any spoilers!" Qin Ya waved her hands, then patted her head, and sighed: "There is still a magical twist, it's really hard to imagine the development of the theater version ...But even so, I think it's better for you to take your time, Teacher."

"Why?" Meng Huo was surprised.

""Magic Girl Madoka Magica" has just finished, and the rebroadcast copyright has not been sold yet. It still has audience potential. You should wait until it matures..."

Qin Ya explained that although the current "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" looks very popular, the number of viewers is not saturated. After the animation is over, the extremely high evaluation will attract more people to be interested in this animation. After it has been replayed several times, the audience will be even larger. If you really want to make a theatrical version, wait a year.

"One year from now, the number of people who have watched the animation will be several times that of the current one. If the movie version is released by then, the popularity will definitely be high!"

After listening to Qin Ya's explanation, Meng Huo thought that what she said made sense, so he didn't need to rush to release the theatrical version.

"Forget it, I'd better think about other things..." Meng Huo said with a smile: "Let's rest for a few days, everyone is tired now."

"By the way, Mr. He Xi... I have a suggestion." Qin Ya's heart suddenly moved, and she said, "Your "5 Centimeters per Second" has been released for several years. Isn't it just a good time to adapt it into an animated movie? I can't think of anything A comic is better suited for a movie than it is."

"It's not that I haven't thought about this..." Meng Huo smiled, then shook his head and said, "But I always feel that the picture requirements for this work are too high, and the current members of the animation department can't do it well."

"If you don't do well, you can change it!" Qin Ya raised her eyebrows: "This is a good opportunity to improve the animation department's standard. After reorganizing it, and recruiting a few powerful painters, it is completely possible to make this movie. This is Movies, not animations - animations need to be serialized in a hurry, but movies don't. We spend a few months making a movie with exquisite style, isn't it difficult?"

Meng Huo was stunned. That’s right. They spent a few months making more than a dozen episodes of animation. If they spent the same amount of time making an animation movie less than 100 minutes long, then “5 Centimeters Per Second” would be completely different. It can be made with fine carving and fine grinding.

He was a little moved, but didn't make a decision right away.

"You're right, I'll take it into consideration." (To be continued...) ()
