Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 188 92. What? Ask Hayao Miyazaki to be the original artist? !

"Well, that's actually the case." Qing Zhiyuan seemed to feel that it was a bit rude to ask this, so he quickly apologized and then explained the reason to Miyazaki Hayao.

"Actually, I am Gu Yuan Chunqiu."

Qing Zhiyuan leaned into Miyazaki's ear and said.

"ha?"

Miyazaki was a little surprised, but not that surprised.

Mainly because he had only heard about Tsubaki Furuhara’s deeds from Toshio Suzuki, but he didn’t know much about this person’s previous works. The only thing he knew was that the game “Your Name” was really good and exceeded Hayao Miyazaki’s imagination of games. and cognition.

But in this way, he admired Qing Zhiyuan even more.

"So, "Your Name" was produced by you?"

"Yes." Qing Zhiyuan nodded in distress, "Senior, please keep it a secret for me."

"I like this game very much." Hayao Miyazaki did not hide his love at all. "The painting style is very exquisite and very pleasing to the eye."

"Thank you Miyazaki-senpai," Qing Zhiyuan clasped his hands together, "I didn't want to continue using Furuhara Chunqiu to make games. At the same time, I wanted to make way for young people, so I issued a retirement statement. There are not enough game producers now, maybe I need to use Huiguyuan Chunqiu, so I'm a little scared.

I would like to ask how you deal with it. "

Oh, that.

Miyazaki understood it immediately.

He glanced at Qing Zhiyuan and smiled meaningfully.

Good guy, you are so young and you are saying that you should give up your seat to young people, but what about me, a middle-aged and elderly man in my 50s?

But... think about it carefully, it's really a coincidence that Qing Zhiyuan actually had the same experience as him.

Thinking about it this way, he felt that the fate was even more wonderful.

"I see... coming back after retiring is really an interesting question."

Hayao Miyazaki sat back on the chair, crossed his legs, and scratched the silver hair on the back of his head with his right hand.

I originally wanted to light a cigarette, but suddenly I remembered that this was a non-smoking place inside a store.

Qing Zhiyuan reacted immediately and said with a smile, "Senior, why don't we go outside to chat."

He put his index and middle fingers to his lips and made a gesture.

Miyazaki laughed.

…

After finishing the dessert, the two of them found a smoking room on the street to sit down, smoked each other, and continued chatting for a while.

"Every time I retire, I take it seriously."

Hayao Miyazaki took a drag of his cigarette, recalled his mood at that time, and laughed involuntarily.

"After making "Castle in the Sky", I felt that this was probably the peak of my life." Hayao Miyazaki looked back at Qing Zhiyuan and said, "My thoughts are similar to yours, but the reasons may be different. After filming When I played Castle in the Sky, I was 45 years old.

I think it’s time to give young people some space.

And retiring at the peak of our lives may be the best destination for us comic writers.

According to my thinking at the time, I didn’t want to go downhill in the future due to a lack of physical strength or creativity, and finally quit due to dismal results.

This would be too embarrassing. "

Qing Zhiyuan listened silently and looked at the expression on the old man's face, knowing that he was speaking these words very seriously.

Sometimes, people can retreat bravely. It takes great courage to stop at the peak.

"It's amazing for Miyazaki-senpai to be able to say that he will retire after "Castle in the Sky" ended." Qing Jiyuan sighed.

Throughout China's thousands of years of history, there are very few people who can truly succeed and retire.

Hayao Miyazaki smiled calmly, "About the subsequent comeback... I actually don't want to say it was for Ghibli or for the audience, although there is also part of the reason in it."

"I would also be troubled, asking whether Hayao Miyazaki is still needed in this era, whether people can still watch Hayao Miyazaki's new works, and whether they can surpass previous works. These will actually put invisible pressure on you."

"But after retreating, there is some small fire in your heart, which will burn and then transform into a powerful force, pulling you up from the bed and pushing you forward."

"The thoughts that are constantly born in the brain are unbearable if they are not drawn."

"Maybe this is my flaw."

"Based on these, I made "My Neighbor Totoro" and "Porco Rosso"

Miyazaki said this with a child-like smile on his face.

This is probably the pure animator's love and persistence for animation.

Seeing his expression, Qing Zhiyuan felt that a guy like him who had no talent and became the president of a game company was really rubbish.

I'm afraid he will never be able to understand this kind of feeling [can't bear it without drawing the thoughts in his mind] in his whole life.

"After Porco Rosso, I feel that everything I want to express has been expressed, and there seems to be nothing to regret in my life, so I told the media that [my animation career is over]," Miyazaki shook his head and smiled bitterly, then sandwiched He smoked and hit his head with his hand.

"It's still the same. The ideas that are constantly being born, many novel things, and the desire for expression are like there is a kind of magical magic entrenched in the head. If it is not released, it will accumulate more and more, and eventually it will fill the entire brain, like sea water. To overflow.

so……"

Hayao Miyazaki smiled sheepishly, "I've been working on a new animation recently."

"Huh? Really?"

Although Qing Zhiyuan already knew the name of this animation, he still pretended to be surprised and cooperated with the performance, "That's great. I am really lucky to continue to see your future works."

"No, no." Hayao Miyazaki smiled and waved his hand, "It's hard to say what the actual result will be. It might be scolded half to death by the audience.

But I’m just exploring the answers I’m looking for in my own unique way. "

"Then did you find it?"

Qing Zhiyuan asked tentatively.

He knew that the animation Hayao Miyazaki was about to produce was "Princess Mononoke" and that it explored the ultimate proposition between man and nature, but he still wanted to ask the person involved about his views and journey.

Miyazaki was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"No."

Qing Zhiyuan also laughed.

He looked back at the senior Hayao Miyazaki. There were two dimples on his smooth cheeks, which were both cute and funny.

It's great to be able to chat with such seniors.

"You'd better grow your beard."

"Eh?"

Hayao Miyazaki touched the stubble on his chin and laughed naively, "Don't you feel sloppy?"

"Not at all. Being sloppy has nothing to do with a beard."

"It feels more intimate this way," Qing Zhiyuan said.

"LOL, really?"

…

"Anyway," Miyazaki said, "Just be sincere. Don't think too much.

If you really want to retire, then retire.

If you have to come back, then do it according to your own ideas.

Because life is your own choice. "

Um.

Qing Zhiyuan nodded.

I feel like I’ve learned a lot again.

But Ghibli has such a good teacher, why does it have no successor? Qing Zhiyuan really can't figure this out.

Oh no, Hideaki Anno should be regarded as Hayao Miyazaki's favorite disciple, but it's a pity that this guy doesn't work at Ghibli.

Sometimes students also need talents.

At least Qing Zhiyuan feels that he is not very good yet.

The reason why he can still hold on to the scene now is mainly due to his insight into the future, which is equivalent to copying the ideas of many big guys, but there seems to be something missing that allows him to independently create works that are comparable to those of the big guys.

…

"correct."

At this moment, Hayao Miyazaki's voice came from the side.

Now that the topic has been discussed and the atmosphere is good, Hayao Miyazaki shamelessly said, "There is something I have been thinking about for a long time, and I just want to take advantage of today's opportunity to ask Qingsang."

"Um?"

"That's right," Hayao Miyazaki said with a smile, "To tell you the truth, we are making a new animated movie, but I want to ask pokeni to make it into a game."

"ha?!"

Qing Zhiyuan was stunned.

What? !

Hayao Miyazaki is going to hand over "Princess Mononoke" to us to make a game?

This is simply...

It was completely unexpected, and he had never even dreamed of it.

How could Hayao Miyazaki license his animation to others to make games? !

And it's "Princess Mononoke"!

In Qing Zhiyuan's understanding, this is almost impossible.

"Well, this is the result of discussions between Suzuki-san and I, but we haven't made up our mind yet." Hayao Miyazaki smiled, "We will complete the storyboard of the new animation as soon as possible and then give it to pokeni. Please make your decision at that time."

"Okay, okay." Qing Zhiyuan took a deep breath and still hasn't come back to his senses.

Although I really want to agree now, it still feels a bit informal. Since it involves cooperation between two companies, it is naturally better to follow the formal process.

"Um...actually, we have something to ask Miyazaki-senpai for."

In this case, Qing Zhiyuan also has to talk about etiquette (de), shang (cun), go (jin) and come (chi).

"Huh?" Mr. Hayao Miyazaki was also stunned.

Good guy, what are we doing here?

Do you have a tacit understanding?

In the game "LIFE-LINE", there is a plot that requires the use of strong original paintings, because the setting about the daughter is that she can draw amazing paintings, which makes her popular among people.

Qing Zhiyuan tried several times on his own, but still couldn't find a style he was satisfied with.

But if it were Hayao Miyazaki, he might have a strong performance effect.

So for the game LL, Qing Zhiyuan wanted to ask Hayao Miyazaki to draw some very important illustrations in it.

…

A week later, Hayao Miyazaki came to Pokeni Co., Ltd. with the first version of the storyboard and script of "Princess Mononoke".

Qing Zhiyuan received him warmly.

Shinji Mikami, who was concentrating on his work and having a lively discussion with his colleagues, suddenly found that the surrounding environment had become quiet.

Looking back, I saw that the president led a silver-haired bearded man and a thin old man into the conference room.

Followed closely by the new project leader Mika Ishino, program director Ken Akanishi, and art director Taiji Sakata...

"Wow, did I read that correctly? Is the guy who just passed by Miyazaki Hayao?"

"real or fake?"

"Really, really Hayao Miyazaki!"

"Why did Hayao Miyazaki come to us? Does he want to make a game?"

"Nani?! It's real or fake, how is this possible?!"

Everyone's first reaction was how could this be possible?

After all, Hayao Miyazaki gave people the impression that he hated games before, so why did he suddenly come to pokeni now?

"Is it possible that you want to animate the game?"

"Ghibli? Draw our game? Is this possible?" Everyone had question marks on their faces.

Although this explanation seems more reliable than cooperating to make games, it is difficult to imagine that Ghibli can produce animations for others.

"Which game are you interested in? "Your Name"? Or "Belt Man"?"

"Both of these games have the potential to be animated, but hasn't Ghibli always taken the original route? You know, this is Hayao Miyazaki. He can't even produce his own ideas, so why would he think of doing it? Accept other people’s work?”

"Yeah...I can't understand it."

"Actually," at this moment, as a rare person who knew the inside story, young HR Akane Ayase whispered, "As far as I know, the president wants to ask Master Hayao Miyazaki to draw some original paintings for the new game. "

As for the cooperative game, Akane Ayase didn’t know about it herself, so she didn’t talk about it.

"Nani?!"

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Everyone felt even more incredible about this answer.

"Hao Miyazaki will be our original animator? Is this possible?"

"Don't ask me, I can't wrap my head around it."

"It's just the original painting design, not the original artist. It's just a friendly help." Akane Ayase said.

"Doesn't that all mean the same thing?"

"It's terrible. Our president is so terrible. How did he do it?"

"It's just, completely incomprehensible. This is beyond my imagination."

…

In the conference room, the high-level negotiations between Ghibli and pokeni were extremely relaxed and efficient.

Although Qing Zhiyuan has not seen the storyboards of Ghibli's new film, after confirming that it is "Princess Mononoke", a big stone fell in his heart.

He is very familiar with "Princess Mononoke". He has watched this animated movie at least three times, and he has different feelings every time he watches it. In his mind, "Princess Mononoke" can be regarded as the pinnacle of Hayao Miyazaki. One of the works.

Its profound connotation, magnificent momentum, and non-positional narrative style show the audience the most primitive power of life.

Moreover, this animation is so good that it can be adapted into a game.

Especially real-time combat games.

The movements of the male and female protagonists are already very smooth in the film, especially the scene where Princess Mononoke rides on the back of a wolf and rushes forward, which is simply stunning.

Qing Zhiyuan still remembers it vividly when he thinks about it, and the impression is profound.

If it is adapted into an action game, it will definitely have a strong combat effect. Even Qing Zhiyuan is not completely sure that he can fully express the momentum conveyed in the film.

Thinking of this, Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel a little regretful——

It would be better if it were ten years later. Current game hardware has not yet developed. If it were ten years later, he believed that the "Princess Mononoke" game could be made better.
