Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

After Lin Qingshan decided to produce the Fate series, he also decided to tell Ming Yiyang and Trigger Animation about it.

He immediately typed a reply to Ming Yiyang, "In that case, I actually have a pretty good idea here, I want to see what you think."

After seeing Lin Qingshan's reply, Ming Yiyang also quickly replied, "Then teacher, are you free this weekend? Come to our company. It would be best... to prepare some setting pictures and main character pictures like before."

Lin Qingshan thought about it and realized that it is easier to understand creations like animation and comics that require a sense of picture by just watching them directly.

Although the setting of Fate, which fights historical crickets, actually sounds very exciting.

But he suddenly thought of a problem...If you really make an animation of the Fourth or Fifth War, it seems that you can't follow the original work completely without any ancient heroes of the Republic...

Well...it should be some localized adaptation like "Parasyte" and "Ghoul".

Otherwise, the pressure from public opinion will be great...

However, even if a localized adaptation is to be made, the ancient heroes of the Republic added must fit the replaced hero character in the original work.

Whether it is the production of the Fourth War or the Fifth War, the heroine Saber cannot be replaced, and the Red A Hero Emiya, who is the future male protagonist, cannot be replaced.

The remaining Shining...

Lin Qingshan thought that the First Emperor was quite suitable, but then he shook his head and rejected this idea.

Although the setting of the King's Treasure is also very suitable for the First Emperor, the First Emperor is not as arrogant as Shining.

Especially Shining is destined to be a loser type of character, and will definitely lose.

But if it is the First Emperor?

It is estimated that the Qin King will start the six-way sweep mode at the beginning until the final victory and the Holy Grail.

Even if he is forced to fail, he will directly choose to rebuild the Qin Empire because of the Black Holy Grail after the Fourth War, instead of wandering around like a street lamp king like Shining.

So Shanshan... let's keep the original character of Gilgamesh, the King of Uruk.

The remaining heroes are Assassin, Mage, Berserker, Cavalier, Archer, and Spear.

The Assassin in the Fourth and Fifth Wars is Hassan. The most suitable heroes in the ancient Republic are the four assassins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period - Jing Ke, Yaoli, Nie Zheng, and Zhuan Zhu.

However, the Assassin of the Fourth War, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, is to set off the powerful treasure of the emperor - "The King's Army", and must have a treasure like Hassan of the Hundred Faces "Delusion and Illusion".

Jing Ke, Yaoli, Nie Zheng, and Zhuan Zhu don't seem to be suitable.

Hassan of the Cursed Arm in the Fifth War... Forget it, there seems to be no good replacement for the Assassin.

As for the Mage... Although there were no mages in the ancient Republic, Taoist priests and monks can be barely considered the Republic version, but it's too forced, so it's better not to change.

After all, the magic class of the fourth and fifth wars are both quite negative characters. It is also a bit difficult to find a corresponding similar legend for the unique treasure "Wan Fu Bi Ying Po Jie" of the magic class Medea of ​​the fifth war.

As for the Berserker class, Lancelot, as a character closely connected with Saber, cannot be replaced.

Hercules... The Twelve Trials, the only ancient hero that can match this treasure seems to be Zhou Tai of Wu during the Three Kingdoms period. He remembered that this character was made into a card in the Three Kingdoms Killing. Doesn't he have an unyielding skill that can't die?

But Zhou Tai is hard to be compared with the great Greek hero and god of war Hercules. The only ones who can match Uncle B's fame and military power are probably Xiang Yu, Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Qin Qiong and other brave generals in history.

However, they don't have legends and allusions like the Twelve Trials of Hercules. Guan Yu, the Martial Saint, can barely match it.

Not to mention the Archer class, a Shining and a Heroic Spirit Emiya, both are important characters and cannot be replaced.

Then the Spear class...

A Dog Brother and a Brush Brother...

Suddenly, Lin Qingshan blinked his eyes, and he thought of Brush Brother, who was loyal, relatively strong, and had a sense of justice of the way of chivalry in his heart, and he was also handsome.

Zhao Yun from the Three Kingdoms period should be very suitable, but Zhao Yun does not seem to have a dark history of seducing the eldest sister-in-law...

And there are the two Spear Class treasures "Red Rose of Demon Breaking" and "Yellow Rose of Destruction", Zhao Yun does not seem to have similar weapons.

It seems that it is more suitable to replace Dog Brother.

Forget it, or don't seduce the eldest sister-in-law in a vulgar way, but make some changes. Zhao Yun died on his sickbed in history, and he should be brooding over it.

So the reason why he came to the Holy Grail War is the same as Brush Brother's original, just to fight for the master to the last moment and win the final victory.

But the ending is still because the master was caught by Kiritsugu's father and threatened by the mistress, so he was forced to commit suicide with the Command Seal.

Actually, it's almost the same.

After all, the original work of this plot mainly highlights the inevitable fate and tragedy of Brush Brother himself. He was seriously injured and died because he fell in love with the master's fiancée before his death.

Similarly, Zhao Yun could also commit suicide with the Command Seal because his master Kenneth was threatened by Kiritsugu, and he did not die in the battle with regret, highlighting his inevitable sense of fate and tragedy.

Finally, after Zhao Yun was ordered to commit suicide, after denouncing the Saber group's despicableness, he shouted "Northern Expedition! Northern Expedition! Northern Expedition!" three times with regret and unwillingness, but he turned into ashes powerlessly...

That kind of regret is also there.

As for Brother Brush's two precious phantoms, "Red Rose of Destruction" and "Yellow Rose of Destruction", they can be replaced with Zhao Yun's deeds and the weapons he holds, "Single Savior" and "Gentian Bright Silver" gun".

If that's the case... then let's choose to make four battles.

Anyway, the Fourth War is indeed more to his liking.

So Lin Qingshan began to draw the main character settings and other settings of "Fate Zero".

For him, this is naturally a very easy thing. Even if he adds and replaces one of the heroic spirits to become Zhao Yun, his already solidified memory seems to have had a fanfic in his previous life in which Zhao Yun was a gun-level character.

Although he only had a glimpse of it in his previous life, but with the memory solidification ability of [Hard Drive Memory (Diamond)], he can now completely recall the setting of Zhao Yun at the gun level.

However, he thought about it and decided to use the ability parameters and class abilities of Brother Brush in the picture set of fellow gunner Zhao Yun, and renamed the subsequent inherent skills and treasure phantoms.

Soon, with Lin Qingshan's superb painting skills, all the characters and heroic spirit settings of "Fate Zero" were drawn.

It was almost time for Gu Qianli to get off work, so he put down the painting tools in his hands and went to pick Gu Qianli up to enjoy dinner for the two of them.

Anyway, there are still two days left before the scheduled time for the trigger animation on Sunday.

…

Waiting until Sunday, the second season animation finale of "Chainsaw Man" was updated on time at 12 o'clock in the night.

Countless viewers who are looking forward to the finale of the second season of "Chainsaw Man" are naturally waiting patiently even late at night during this holiday.

After the second season animation finale of "Chainsaw Man" was updated, in less than half a minute, the playback interface was filled with barrages.

"First!"

"Finish spreading flowers!"

"Great!"

"It's forbidden!"

"We! We are the overlords of February!!"

“Congratulations to Chainsaw Man!!”

…

The audience was very excited and quickly watched the finale of the second season of "Chainsaw Man" in the excitement.

After all, it is a manga adaptation, so the ending will naturally not be overturned.

After everyone watched it with satisfaction, they all said that the top drama of this season is "Chainsaw Man".

The popularity and popularity of "Chainsaw Man" that night also continued to rise.

Discussions about the finale of Season 2 did not stop at all until the next day.

However, Lin Qingshan came to Trigger Animation with many setting drawings of "Fate Zero" at this time.

Trigger Animation's attitude towards Lin Qingshan can be said to be extremely enthusiastic. After all, Lin Qingshan is now a golden brand.

If you make animations with Mr. Qingshan, you will be very popular and drink spicy food, and you won’t lose anything.

Of course, they should treat Lin Qingshan extra well.

Everyone enters the conference room.

"Teacher Qingshan, drink tea."

The current CEO of Trigger Animation, Zhong Yayan, personally poured tea for Lin Qingshan and said with a warm smile.

Recently, Trigger Animation's financial income has been soaring, and all of this is naturally due to his foresight. Under the pressure of being banned by Youdou.com, he chose to trust Lin Qingshan and cooperated with him to produce three popular dramas.

And it is precisely because of this that they must continue to cooperate with Mr. Aoyama on trigger animation.

"Ah, thank you."

Lin Qingshan didn't care, he just said it out of politeness.

"Teacher Qingshan, ahem, let's take a look at the content of the next new project first."

Ming Yiyang coughed at this time and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay. I'm actually a little anxious today. Now that you guys have finalized it, you can make a copy of these setting drawings."

Lin Qingshan showed his teeth that looked quite white due to diligent brushing, and said, "Then I will take these original drawings to Lightspeed Development Company."

"Lightspeed Development Company? That game company?"

Zhong Yayan said with sudden realization, "Yes, the game "Cyberpunk 2077" of the same name as Teacher's previous "Edge Walker" was developed by them."

"Teacher this time is..."

He suddenly became curious and asked.

After all, Lin Qingshan wants them to copy these setting drawings, and then take the original drawings to Lightspeed Game Development Company...

If it weren't for the fact that Lightspeed Game Development Company is not an animation production company, they might be a little alarmed now.

But in terms of game development, it is completely different from their animation production.

So Zhong Yayan was just curious, not worried that Lin Qingshan would go and cooperate with others instead of cooperating with them.

"In my opinion, Fate is a series, not only an animation, but also a game series."

Lin Qingshan immediately took out the setting drawings in the paper bag, as well as the detailed settings that he specially compiled and printed out, such as the identity of the master, personality, experience, and the panel and abilities of the heroic spirit, etc., and placed them on the long table in front of him , said, "This time my idea is that the first Fate series animation will be "Fate Zero"."

However, senior executives of Trigger Animation such as Zhong Yayan and Ming Yiyang looked at a loss.

Why is the first Fate series anime "Fate Zero"?

There is no preface or follow-up to this kind of statement, which makes people feel a little confused.

However, they still took the drawings that Lin Qingshan took out in their hands and started to read them.

The drawing in Zhong Yayan's hand shows a middle-aged man with cold and numb eyes, and there is a character name written by Lin Qingshan on it.

"Master of the Saber camp...Kiritsugi Mamoru?"

He read this somewhat strange name.

Ming Yiyang, on the other hand, had a drawing of Saber's setting. The classic image of Saber wearing a blue and white Western medieval knight's armor was brought to life on the paper by Lin Qingshan's superb painting skills.

Lin Qingshan also wrote about the origin of Saber's prototype.

"Saber... Artoria Pendragon? The prototype of King Arthur Pendragon from the legend of ancient Britain?"

Ming Yiyang also read it out and said.

But they were still confused and couldn't help but look at Lin Qingshan.

Lin Qingshan scratched his head and immediately explained, "In the animation setting of "Fate Zero", there is a universal wishing machine that can grant all wishes. Therefore, in order to win the Holy Grail, people in this world held a ceremony called the Holy Grail. The secret battle of the war is called the Holy Grail War."

"In the Holy Grail War, seven people who have obtained the master qualification called the Command Spell performed rituals through a certain medium, and summoned the characters with names in history as familiars, divided into seven classes. Saber represents the swordsman, Lancer represents the spearman, Archer represents the archer, Rider represents the knight, Caster represents the mage, Assassin represents the assassin, and Berserker represents Crazy level Berserker..."

After Lin Qingshan explained this, everyone in Trigger Animation suddenly understood.

This...is a cricket fight across time and space similar to Guan Gong's battle with Qin Qiong?

Or is there a Chinese-foreign confrontation version?

Sure enough, an animation director of Trigger Animation saw the heroic spirits belonging to the ancient heroes of the Republic.

"Lancer Zhao Yun!"

His eyes sparkled and he said, "Lancer Zhao Zilong! It really suits him! But he's not from the protagonist's camp..."

After all, Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a well-known novel in the Republic, so of course it has many fans.

Especially Zhao Zilong with a silver saddle and white horse, like Liu Guanzhang and Zhuge Liang of the Shu Han Dynasty, some people may think that they are hypocrites, arrogant, or engaged in infighting in the regency and dislike them.

But Zhao Yun...that is an almost perfect historical hero.

Most people will definitely have a positive evaluation of Zhao Yun, the general of the Three Kingdoms, so there is no need to say much about his popularity.

One of the animation scriptwriters of Trigger Animation also got the heroic spirit information compiled by Lin Qingshan. He was a little excited when he looked at Zhao Yun's unique skills and precious phantoms.

"Mind Eye (True) B? Excellent insight that can accurately predict the opponent's actions and break through dangerous situations developed through practice and training. Even if you are forced into a desperate situation, you can calmly grasp the situation of yourself and the enemy at a disadvantage, and find a fighting theory for survival.”

"There is also Infinite Martial Arts A, a martial arts training that was said to be unparalleled in a certain era. It completely integrates the mind, skills and body, and can exert powerful combat capabilities without any mental influence!"

"The general's strategy B is a fighting method that can accurately grasp the direction of the battle and induce mistakes in the opponent even if the strength is inferior to the opponent."

"The Noble Phantasm "Ride the Savior", level B~B+. According to the legend, Zhao Yun protected his young master alone among thousands of troops. It is a noble phantom sublimated from the legend. It can neutralize the defense composed of magic power. Its attack is against those composed of magic power. The armor is particularly effective, and the magic enhancements and additional abilities applied to the weapon will lose all effects when it comes into contact with this gun. "

"The Noble Phantasm "Rgentian Silver Spear" is a white spear with a curse that cannot heal wounds. After being damaged by this dangerous spear, it will cause irreparable wounds. Even healing magic and regeneration cannot relieve this condition. "

…

Lin Qingshan combined Zhao Yun's historical legends and weapons, and then used the abilities of the brushman Gedi Lumudo.

The same goes for ability parameters, but after thinking about it, Zhao Yun, who is known as a victorious general, should also have abilities similar to Lancelot's "Infinite Martial Arts".

So he also added it, but slightly weakened the level.

As for the military strategy of the general... Zhao Yun's seven-in and seven-out single-riding savior relies not only on the "Infinite Martial Arts" level of force, but of course there is also a certain strategy, but Zhao Yun is more of a knight than a knight. He said he was a general, so he changed it.

It is obvious that in this setting of fighting crickets in the void, an ancient heroic spirit of the Republic appears, especially a prestigious heroic spirit like Zhao Yun.

For the people of the Republic, it is a very exciting thing.

Even Zhong Yayan felt a little excited and couldn't wait to watch this drama.

but……

"Zhao Yun should be in the protagonist camp, right, Teacher Qingshan."

Ming Yiyang frowned and said, "And it says... that the master who was threatened used a command spell to order suicide and exit? This is not good."

They all couldn't accept that as the ancient heroes of the Republic, they sadly left the stage.

As an ancient heroic spirit of the Republic, shouldn't he just fight through this Holy Grail War and become the final winner?

Even if his opponent is King Arthur, King of Heroes, or King of Conquerors, it is nothing.

However, as a plagiarist, Lin Qingshan also thought that "as a work created by people of the Republic in this world, of course there should be ancient heroes of the Republic", so he replaced the brush brother with Zhao Yun.

If all the other things were changed, it would be boring.

But he thought about it and changed his words, saying, "The ending of this animation is actually... regrettable. In this Holy Grail War, there is no outright winner. Everyone exits the stage with their own desires and regrets."

Even though Gilgamesh seemed to have obtained the body as he wished, he was still defeated in the original ending.

So he seemed to be the biggest winner, but in fact he did not really win completely.

Hearing Lin Qingshan's words, Zhong Yayan and the others immediately understood...

It's another tragic narrative drama in Lin Qingshan's style as always.

That's right, this is Mr. Qingshan's style, and it's also the reason why the work is so popular.

They have no choice. If they have a perfect ending, it will be boring.

So, Zhong Yayan nodded and said to Lin Qingshan sincerely, "Okay, then let's finalize the animation production projects of "Chainsaw Man" Season 3, "Magto Ghoul" Season 2 and... this "Fate Zero". Mr. Qingshan, please continue to give me more advice."

"Haha, please give me more advice."

Lin Qingshan also had no opinion and said at last.
