Big Manga

On Saturday morning, Meng Huo left employees in a department to work overtime, which made the adaptation competition go smoothly.

After the first adaptation assessment, the works of these contestants were sent to Meng Huo's computer. He ordered a takeaway and immediately reviewed these works in the office.

For more than a hundred novels, it will take several people a day to complete the review in the editorial department. But Meng Huo only needed one noon, and he could list the rankings between the players' meals and naps.

Thanks to his superb memory, Meng Huo's method was a bit like cheating. He first read all the manuscripts and divided them into grades. Then after memorizing all the content, he eliminated the bad ones, closed his eyes, and carefully graded the excellent works based on memory alone.

Like a computer, he can analyze and screen each work in detail. So before it was two o'clock in the afternoon, Meng Huo mentally screened out 70 people who passed the test - more than 40 people were brushed off by him.

"Hmm..." But after ranking these works in good and bad order, Meng Huo began to think about whether to lower the ranking first, and wait until all four assessments were over before picking out the novel team he wanted based on all the results.

Although the original plan was round after round of knockout rounds, the more Meng Huo thought about it, the more he felt that it was more appropriate to consider the results of the four rounds. For this reason, he approached Wang Hui and told her about it.

"Yes, yes, I want to change the rules, and the writers will be happy." Wang Hui nodded hesitantly. It is of course the fairest way to review several written tests, so as to prevent writers from being rejected due to mistakes in one work. They will naturally be willing to accept this comprehensive review method.

However, it is not that the editors have not considered this method. The reason why they have not adopted it is because the comprehensive review is too difficult. There are more than one hundred writers, and there are more than one hundred manuscripts for each competition, and there are six or seven hundred in two days.

"Teacher, can you be impartial?"

Wang Hui looked at Meng Huo suspiciously. These six or seven hundred manuscripts were not graded independently during the review process. Each article was aimed at a writer and should be reviewed fairly. The reviewer must know which four works each writer has written, and the difficulty is not generally high.

If you can't do this, it's better than knockout.

Of course - Meng Huo didn't know if other people could do it, but what he was sure of was that he could do it.

"No problem. Leave it to me...you inform them of the news." Meng Huo told Wang Hui, but when he returned to the office, he was a little surprised to find that He Qian was standing at the door of the office waiting for him.

"Isn't it a rest today?" Meng Huo thought to himself, he didn't remember that the game department had to go to work today, what was He Qian doing here?

He Qian saw Meng Huo appear. His face lit up, and he quickly walked up to him: "Teacher, welcome back."

"What do you want from me?" Meng Huo opened the door, let He Qian in, and asked, "Isn't today a holiday?"

"Hmm." He Qian walked into the office, looked around, and looked puzzled: "This morning is the novel adaptation competition, isn't it? Teacher, aren't you going to review manuscripts? Why don't you see any manuscripts?"

Meng Huo pointed to the computer.

He Qian was taken aback: "Is the manuscript in the computer? Why is it a computer?"

"They can use paper or computer, but everyone chooses computer." Meng Huo replied, he gave the writers a choice. Thanks to the ubiquity of computers, none of the contestants chose to actually write with a pen. The reason why they choose computers is simple - computers are more convenient.

In the limited time to rush to adapt the novel, the speed of the computer and the fatigue of the opponent have advantages. Of course, Meng Huo had already shut down the computer network in the company during the competition.

He Qian nodded understandingly, and Meng Huo looked at her: "You haven't said what's the matter?"

"By the way, this matter... Teacher, have you thought about the examination questions for the afternoon?" He Qian suddenly opened her eyes expectantly, looking at Meng Huo eagerly.

"I've given the topic to the editors!" Meng Huo nodded,

Not to mention the topic for the afternoon, he has already thought about the topic for tomorrow.

He Qian became anxious: "Teacher, have you already told me to go on? This is too fast..." She rolled her eyes: "I said teacher, anyway, the written test in the afternoon hasn't started yet. Can you give me the questions? "

Meng Huo was surprised: "You want to ask a question?"

"Yes, I want to write a question!" He Qian nodded quickly, as if she was very worried that Meng Huo would not agree, and said earnestly: "Anyway, as long as it is the work of the teacher. No matter which one is an adaptation, I want to see the game adaptation as soon as possible." What a novel is like!"

Meng Huo smiled: "The question I came up with is a game plot."

"That's different." He Qian shook her head: "I have something more I want to see!"

Meng Huo looked at her a little strangely, then frowned slightly and thought about it. The written test hadn't started yet, so there was still time to modify the topic, since He Qian wanted to read it so much. Then it will be as she wishes.

And he already guessed what He Qian wanted to see...

"It's World of Warcraft again, right?"

He laughed and said that Meng Huo had heard that the game department was sorting out the scattered data of this game long ago. These materials are left by He Xi every time he goes to the game department. Although he doesn't go for this game every time, he will be pestered by He Qian every time, and then take a look at their online games. progress, and give them some pointers by the way.

These pointers have been able to piece together several game stories and settings, but they are still very scattered. Meng Huo guessed that He Qian had come up on a whim, and wanted to take the opportunity of this novel adaptation competition to let those writers write it for her for free.

After hearing Meng Huo's words, He Qian really showed an embarrassing expression: "I really can't hide anything from you, teacher."

Meng Huo shook his head involuntarily. If he had known that He Qian would be so obsessed, he shouldn't have mentioned "World of Warcraft" in the first place. How could that game be made so easily, and the current progress is just the beginning of the game, He Qian is too impatient.

But after thinking about it, he finally agreed to He Qian's request - Meng Huo's proposals were all adaptation titles with reference to the original work. He was also interested in knowing that in the absence of a specific original work, there were only some materials and oral description Stories, how far those writers can go.

If they can also do this kind of adaptation work well, then Meng Huo may be able to further tap their value in the future, and even the animation and game scripts can be given to them to share part of it.

With this in mind, Meng Huo allowed He Qian to change the title, and then watched the writers write new stories with their pens.

In the evening, after the manuscripts were returned, Meng Huo found the novels quite interesting. Without the reference of the original work, everyone's work has a strong personal flavor. The same story has a completely different feeling in the hands of different people. The strength and style of the contestants are very clear.

He Qian's question was wrong. Let Meng Huo know a few writers who must stay early.

He selected more than a dozen outstanding manuscripts and handed them over to He Qian at night. After receiving the new manuscripts, He Qian was so excited that she read two of them in a row and exclaimed, "It's so handsome! This...is really professional. The stories written by the people are very charming. Unlike the group of idiots in our department, no matter how you write, you can’t feel it!"

She likes these adaptations very much. After reading the detailed novels, "World of Warcraft" gave her a completely different feeling. , and a very rigorous view of the virtual world.

"Can I show these articles to people in our department?" He Qian asked.

Meng Huo shook his head, but he didn't refuse: "Even if I say no, you will take it, right?"

He Qian chuckled, of course she would not let go of such a good thing. Even now she has some new ideas: "I said teacher, after this assessment is over, why don't you let those writers write down the story and setting of "World of Warcraft"? I think so many people, no It will take a month to complete."

Meng Huo laughed: "You think "World of Warcraft" is so simple?"

"Isn't one month enough?" He Qian was dumbfounded.

Meng Huo smiled and said nothing, let alone a month, it's hard to say whether it can be completed in a quarter. There are dozens of novels alone. If you add the game settings and scripts, even if he mobilizes the entire adaptation team to do it, it will be difficult to call it a day without half a year.

This was the main reason why he was reluctant to do it. This game was too complicated and there were too many materials.

He Qian was dumbfounded. But after being dumbfounded, she realized the potential meaning of Meng Huo's words, and her interest in "World of Warcraft" games increased instead of decreased - it was so powerful that even with Teacher He Xi's ability, it couldn't be released within a month. How big is the world view of this game!

"Teacher, you are really short-hearted." When she came back to her senses, He Qian was a little aggrieved: "You know that I really want to make this game, but you still want to tease me on purpose."

Meng Huo shook his head: "I didn't whet your appetite. I said a long time ago that it's not the right time... It's you who are so anxious to do it."

He Qian suddenly smiled: "But after today, I'm not the only one who will be anxious."

"...how do you say?" Meng Huo asked strangely.

"Teacher, have you forgotten one thing?" He Qian looked very proud, and slowly turned around Meng Huo: "I changed your topic today, teacher. The purpose is not just for these manuscripts."

Meng Huo thought about it, and then he understood.

"You mean the news will leak, right?"

"That's right!" He Qian nodded and said with a big laugh, "Teacher, you were also fooled. I know that most of those contestants are your die-hard fans. They are very familiar with every work of yours. It is impossible not to notice the afternoon The topic is very strange!"

Meng Huo's team selection was initiated from the He Xi Family forum, and He Qian naturally knew the situation of the players clearly. Even if it cannot be said to be 100% among the more than 100 contestants, 90% of them must be familiar with Meng Huo's works-even if He Qian did not reveal the name and plan of "World of Warcraft", they would naturally find out The content of the change to the afternoon is not among any previous works.

Even smarter people can already find out the script of this mysterious new game from the clues...

What He Qian is proud of is the emergence of this situation. During the time she was chatting with Meng Huo, the news had inevitably leaked out, and soon other readers would know that a mysterious game was being produced. Before long, clamor for new titles won't be confined to the games department.

But no matter how proud He Qian was, she forgot one thing.

"If you mean that the story of "World of Warcraft" leaked, I didn't worry much about it at the beginning." Meng Huo smiled and said, "Or, He Qian, do you think I will be subject to pressure from fans?"

He Qian's smile stopped abruptly.

She thought that if more people knew about "World of Warcraft", it would bring pressure to Meng Huo, but she never thought that Meng Huo would have enough confidence to ignore the pressure—he had enough works to satisfy fans, It doesn't seem to be a big deal to hang other people's appetite for a few years.

Seeing He Qian's gradually stiff face, Meng Huo found it amused, so he turned and left.

"By the way, let me tell you one more thing!" But before leaving, Meng Huo stopped again, turned around and said, "Even if you don't do this, I will slowly leak the things about "World of Warcraft" , I don’t do it now, but it doesn’t mean I won’t do it in the future.”

Meng Huo didn't give up making "World of Warcraft", he just judged that the timing was wrong. Things could be very different in a few years, though, and he's always had plans ahead of time—so there's nothing wrong with game leaks.

On the contrary, even if He Qian didn't do this, in the following few years, Meng Huo would indirectly release some rumors to build momentum for the real start of this production plan one day in the future.

Leaving the silly He Qian behind, Meng Huo returned to the apartment in a happy mood.

After a night's rest, the two written tests on the second day were still busy. After the four rounds of assessments, Meng Huo stayed up all night to evaluate each contestant from the perspective of the entire work while scoring the four rounds. On Monday morning, the final team was selected.

There are a total of twelve people selected for the team. These twelve people are of completely different types. Standing together may be the most uncoordinated team. There are both "original" romance novelists and "original" migrant workers in the team; there are young girls in the youth department and old people over half a year old.

It is worth mentioning that the fat man and legal loli who were the first to come up at the banquet were also selected. Of course, Meng Huo could only apologize to the rest of them. He prepared commemorative gifts for everyone - and then took a photo with them.

Those who wanted to sign also got their signatures. Although it was a pity that they were not selected for the team, the players who were not selected still accepted the result.

According to Wang Hui, the big deal for these contestants is that they enjoyed a free trip to Manga Island, and they actually didn't lose anything. (To be continued.)
