Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

"Um... Then I'll think about it and give you an answer."

Lin Qingshan scratched his head and said.

The main thing is that he is a nostalgic person. When it comes to cooperation, he must give priority to Trigger Animation Company, even at the risk of being blocked by Youdou.com and being banned.

However... he doesn't know if Trigger Animation is willing to produce a "Parasite" animation.

After all, it is obviously impossible for Ming Yiyang not to know that Lin Qingshan has several completed comics such as "Parasite Beast" and "Fire Fist" that have not yet been animated.

It is even said that "The Strange Immortal" has been serialized to more than 40 chapters. According to the situation that one animation season contains about 20 or 30 chapters of the comic, even the current "The Strange Immortal" can be animated...

This may be because they feel that "Parasite Beast" and "Fire Fist" are too niche and not very popular, or they feel that the scale of "The Strange Fairy" is too big.

"Edgewalker" and "Chainsaw Man" can only be regarded as animations that barely missed the ban on minors, and "Parasite" can barely pass.

But... the plots and certain scenes in the two comics "Fire Fist" and "The Strange Immortal" are all lies if you really say that they are not controlled animations.

In "Fist of Fire", Agni is like the ancestor who cut off his hand to save the village, and there are also the subsequent scenes where he leads the people fleeing from Besim Druk to solve the food problem.

There are also the human-refining elixirs in "The Weird Immortal", Zhengde Temple's Happy Zen Buddha, Li Huowang's use of green flies to climb the steps, and the scenes of Nestorian Jiao's place that is like purgatory on earth.

Even those who write online articles will be warned, blocked, and reviewed by the mythical beast.

Not to mention Lin Qingshan, the cartoonist who drew these clips.

In other words, he has a system and a very strong backend, otherwise he would have been taken away long ago.

However, due to the ability of [Titanium Gold Medal (Master)], he is confident that even if his comics are animated, they will not be completely banned.

But he does have this confidence. Animation production companies such as Trigger Animation do not have this confidence.

It was really blocked... At least half a year of investment in animation production costs, time, and manpower were all lost.

I really can’t even cry when the time comes.

Lin Qingshan thought about it and decided to reply to the message and ask Ming Yiyang if Trigger Animation had ever considered animating "Parasite".

Otherwise, he would choose one of the very popular phenomenal animation works in his previous life, such as "EVA" and "JOJO", for Trigger Animation.

So he looked at the chat interface of Ming Yiyang, who had anxiously sent several messages when he answered the phone just now, and typed a reply, "Well, I'm sorry I just answered the phone."

Ming Yiyang also replied angrily, "It's okay. Teacher, if you have something to do, we can go have a meal and chat slowly later."

"Well...it's not an urgent matter, it's just that my editor called and said..."

Lin Qingshan continued typing, "The MADHOUSE company in the industry has made a request for cooperation in the animation of "Parasite" to the comic company, and there are also several companies such as Hegemony and Dongyin..."

"But I will definitely give priority to you. Do you want to animate the comic "Parasite"?"

Ming Yiyang didn't reply for a long time. He seemed to be thinking or having a meeting to discuss.

After some time, Ming Yiyang replied, "We prefer to cooperate with teachers like Zhan Chi and Ghoul, preferably like Zhan Chi..."

That's not to say that Ghoul can't do it, but Zhanchi is obviously more popular and more average throughout.

They are really having a meeting right now, mainly between Ming Yi Yanglai and Lin Qingshan to communicate about the next cooperation.

Seeing Ming Yiyang's reply, Lin Qingshan immediately understood. He really felt that the popularity of "Parasite Beast" was relatively average... They preferred animated series like Zhan Chi that were highly popular throughout.

In this case... "EVA" and "JOJO" seem to be inappropriate.

After all, "EVA" was relatively slow to gain popularity in the first part, and "JOJO" was too traditional in the first two parts. It would not become popular until the setting of the substitute messenger appeared in the third part.

The main trigger animation trusts him so much. Of course he said, "If I were the Qing Emperor in his youth, I would be rewarded with a peach blossom."

Now that the crisis has been resolved, Lin Qingshan will of course repay the trigger animation.

But at this moment, his cell phone rang again.

He picked up the phone, but this time...

"Liang Zhiyuan?"

Lin Qingshan blinked and said curiously.

Liang Zhiyuan, as the boss of Lightspeed Games, was the company that originally developed "Cyberpunk 2077". In fact, Lin Qingshan and Lightspeed Company continued to cooperate for a long time.

After the popularity of "Cyberpunk 2077", Lightspeed Company did not stop with this first domestically produced 3A masterpiece.

Instead, they want to develop more games, AAA masterpieces, 2D games, card games... They have tried to develop them all.

Even some game copyrights come from Lin Qingshan's comic works.

For example... "Chainsaw Man" was adapted into a character collection fighting game. The IP of "Chainsaw Man", which has huge popularity and fans, has made a lot of money.

But it’s just a money-making game.

The reputation is not good, and some players who call themselves Leopard Head Zero Charge even criticized krypton gold for being too serious.

I also bought the game rights of "Fire Fist" and used it to make a AAA masterpiece, similar to "Red Dead Redemption".

But because the world setting of "Flame Fist" is narrow, and... there are many bugs reported by players, the sales and reputation are not very good.

After all, without Lin Qingshan, even with the self-developed game engine Cyber, the ability of the Lightspeed Company development team is still not enough.

They actually asked Lin Qingshan for help, but Lin Qingshan only helped to solve the few bugs that he could easily solve with a glance. As for the other troublesome bugs...

He couldn't help.

Still want him to help develop the game?

Don't even think about it, Lin Qingshan never works overtime!

And "Parasyte" is not popular, and it can be seen that there is no possibility of making it into a game, so there is no cooperation.

Now... calling, could it be that you are interested in the game copyright of "Dao Wei Yi Xian"?

Lin Qingshan picked up the phone and said, "Hello, Mr. Liang!"

"Teacher Qingshan."

Liang Zhiyuan remained warm and polite, saying, "Long time no see, how are you recently..."

"Very good..."

After a round of greetings, Liang Zhiyuan coughed and said the purpose of his call, saying, "Teacher, this is the case. This time our company...actually wants to set the goal of the next game development project..."

"Is it "Dao Weiyixian"? You should ask Manjie first according to the procedure."

Lin Qingshan blinked and said.

Since he signed a contract with Manjie Company, his comic ownership and any copyright belong to him personally, but must be managed by Manjie.

Of course, as a super popular cartoonist, Lin Qingshan's new contract also stated that he has a high degree of autonomy in controlling the copyright of his works.

If he doesn't want to sell the copyright of his works, Manjie Company can't do anything about it.

But if he wants to sell any copyright of his works, he can't do it completely on his own, but must discuss it with Manjie Company.

However, Liang Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment and said embarrassedly, "Actually... the goal of our game development project this time is the "Kill! Red Eyes" that you, the teacher, have recently become very popular and co-produced with C Station and Trigger Animation..."

"Kill Red Eyes?"

Lin Qingshan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

Oh... it seems that there really was a game in the previous life of Kill Red, and there were card games and fighting games.

After all, the imperial and ministerial tools in the setting are very playable.

But... Kill Red itself is doomed by its inherent defects and settings, and it will not be too popular if it is made into a game.

Because the imperial and ministerial tools are stipulated to have only 48 imperial tools, and the ministerial tools are too useless, which means that they are weapons or props that are not as good as imperial tools.

Then everyone must collect as many imperial tools as possible, but there are only so many imperial tools.

If the game production team adds a secondary imperial weapon, it will cause dissatisfaction among the original fans...

In short, the game of Kill Akagi feels thankless, after all, the setting of imperial weapons is too narrow. If the work does not specify how many imperial weapons there are, but almost endless, then there is still the potential for a big hit.

Liang Zhiyuan heard Lin Qingshan's doubtful words and immediately replied, "Yes, teacher... We plan to develop a card battle game based on "Kill! Red Eyes"."

"Kill Akagi is not suitable..."

Lin Qingshan scratched his head and said subconsciously, "If it is a card game, it should be a game with themes like Fate and Three Kingdoms..."

He suddenly blinked, and then said with sudden enlightenment, "That's right! Fate series!"

How could he forget this animation series with huge commercial value and several masterpieces that have left their names in the ACG world.

However, Liang Zhiyuan was confused and said, "Three Kingdoms? Fate?"

He could understand Three Kingdoms, which should be a game created with the Three Kingdoms as the theme.

However, the Three Kingdoms theme... game developers at home and abroad have basically used this theme to death.

As for Fate, this is the English word destiny, right?

What is this?

Lin Qingshan laughed nervously at this time, gave a thumbs up, and said, "That's perfect, Zhiyuan! Listen to me next, I guarantee that your Lightspeed Company will make a lot of money!"

The Fate series... That is the ultimate gold mine that can make animation production companies, game development companies, and video websites that promote animations all make a lot of money.

Not only did the previous life Type-Moon Company stand firm for more than 20 years because of this series, the original author Nasu Kinoko also made a lot of money, and didn't Ah B also make a lot of money because of this game and animation?

Liang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then thought about it, and decided to believe Lin Qingshan, saying, "Okay... I believe in Mr. Qingshan."

...

Lin Qingshan hung up the phone, and then planned to reply to Ming Yiyang, preparing to make either the fourth war or the fifth war, one of the two legendary masterpieces that have been passed down.

He actually prefers the Fourth War, which has Kiritsugu and Urobuchi in the war and is written by Urobuchi. In his opinion, it is better than the Fifth War.

Even though the Fifth War has the dark and cruel plot of Heaven's Cup, the plot of the Fourth War is still more realistic and thought-provoking.

However...

Another phone call.

Lin Qingshan suddenly felt strange. Why... after the popularity and reputation of the finale of Ghoul exploded, so many people called him today?

This time it was... Gu Qianli.

His girlfriend... That's fine.

He took the phone and said with a grin, "What's wrong with Qianli?"

"Qingshan!! Our station C finally broke through the blockade!"

Gu Qianli said excitedly on the phone, "We have many animation production companies calling us today, willing to cooperate with us in restoring the previous copyrights, and there is one more thing..."

"What's up?"

Lin Qingshan asked curiously.

"Skeleton Animation Production Company, as well as Dawei Animation Production Company and some animation production companies hope that we can continue to participate in animation production with them like Trigger Animation. The condition is... Aoyama Qi is required to be the original author to participate in the plot, settings, Made on part of the original painting.”

Good guy...

Lin Qingshan was a little surprised. He had... become a sought-after gold mine?

Yes, that's true.

After the finale of "Ghoul" was released, it caused a stir among many animation production companies in the industry.

Of course it wouldn't make them so excited if it was just a popular animation, but... Lin Qingshan, as the original author, brought three dramas co-produced by Station C and Trigger Animation - Ghoul, Zhanchi and "Chainsaw Man" "second season.

So far, the second season of "Chainsaw Man" is definitely solid.

After all, it is a manga-adapted animation, and the popularity of the original work is there. The broadcast of the second season during this period did not cause dissatisfaction among comic fans, and the popularity has even been ranked first.

How could it possibly turn over at the end?

Zhan Chi does have this possibility, after all, who knows what the subsequent plot will develop?

But... Lin Qingshan's works have never tried to overturn in the later stage.

However, there are situations where the popularity in the early stage seems to be mediocre, but in the middle and late stages, it becomes a god.

Although people will always make mistakes, Lin Qingshan hasn't made a mistake yet. You can't lend him a loan and he will make a mistake later.

Moreover... As a copycat, his character may be overturned, but the works he copied... really won't be overturned.

Unless Lin Qingshan is out of his mind and chooses crappy works like the Devil's Academy, which have a completely bad reputation.

But he also deeply abhors comic works like Guizi Gakuin and Aunt Niu's famous works that violate Master Tezuka's three principles of comics and have no bottom line.

We simply won’t choose these works that hurt people’s feelings.

At present, Lin Qingshan has only made good films and no bad films since his debut. In addition, he has produced three series together this time, and his popularity and reputation have taken off.

His reputation has also completely taken off, and in the eyes of the audience, he is probably equivalent to the reputation he had in his previous life.

It's still an enhanced version of Lao Xu. After all, Lao Xu has a record of overturning his car, but Lin Qingshan has not.

As soon as everyone sees the four characters "Original work: Qingshan" at the beginning of the animation, you will probably jump straight into the trap without any worries in the future.

"How can old thief Qingshan's work be any worse?"

"You can always trust the old thief Qingshan!"

Now some viewers have said this on the forum, and many netizens even think it’s true. Lin Qingshan’s works are definitely worthy of being fooled into.

So he became a sweet man in the eyes of the animation production company.

Banned by Youdou.com?

Have you watched the trigger animation without being blocked? But haven’t the cooperation with Lin Qingshan and Station C been a great success and making money?

So they also chose to cooperate with Station C and find Lin Qingshan to produce a series.

Why can trigger animation cooperate with Station C but not them?

Even Trigger Animation has collaborated with Lin Qingshan for so long, and has successively produced "Edge Walker", the first and second series of "Chainsaw Man", and "Ze!" They are extremely jealous of the five extremely popular animations "Red Eyes" and "Magic City Ghoul".

They should have cooperated with Mr. Aoyama earlier. They made so much money from Trigger Animation.

So now they no longer care about whether Youdou.com is blocked or not.

Anyway, it was just a ban from Youdou.com, not a ban order from the state.

Youdou.com's ban is just a threat that you won't be able to make big money.

But the trigger animations are so profitable, so this blocking method is basically a no-brainer.

Lin Qingshan was also a little confused, blinked and said, "But this..."

But he thought about it again and realized that Station C really needs a lot of new shows that are at least as high as masterpieces, so that the speed of development of Station C can be increased.

Next, the third season of "Chainsaw Man" and the follow-up to "Ghoul" from Trigger Animation will not require much help from him. He will be responsible for the animation production of "Fate".

But for Lightspeed Game Development Company, Fate’s card game FGO, he should also provide some help.

There is also the serialization of "The Tao Weird Fairy"...

Lin Qingshan sighed and decided not to put too much pressure on himself, and said, "Qianli, please refuse for now."

"Okay... that's right, Qingshan, you don't know the clone technique either."

Although Gu Qianli didn't know that Lin Qingshan had decided to take charge of the animation and game production of the Fate series first, she still felt that Lin Qingshan would be very tired if he agreed, so she didn't say much.

"It would be great if I really knew how to clone myself."

Lin Qingshan pursed his lips and said sadly.

In this way, he can get out all the works he liked in his previous life.

However, the system seems to be able to develop even the abilities of the parallel world series. In fact, the system does not have the abilities of the real superhuman system.

Even the ability of speed has its limits. The fastest speed ability of the diamond-level speed [Speed ​​Star] is only four times the speed of painting, writing, and special effects.

There is no ability above that.

So the system Lao Deng also has its limits. At most, it allows Lin Qingshan to obtain knowledge from the parallel world, good health, and good luck.

The rest... I'm sorry I can't do it.

"Okay, why don't we go out for dinner tonight? Qingshan, you should have a good rest."

Gu Qianli asked gently, "The Wards Jim Biader restaurant that I often went to with Zhihan and Zhiqiu when I was working overtime some time ago is pretty good. I'll call to reserve a seat later."
