My Animation Era

Gu Miao has already decided.

Starting from this year, the animated "Bear Bears" will release a major theatrical movie every year, just like "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".

The first "Treasure Bear" is expected to start production in March and be released close to the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day to avoid direct competition between the Spring Festival movie and the Pleasant Goat zodiac movie.

One thing is pretty good.

That is the big movie series of "Bear Bears", unlike the "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" zodiac series, which is basically locked to release during the Spring Festival.

The big movie "Bear Infested" can still be released normally even after the Spring Festival, and it will basically not be affected too much.

But the Pleasant Goat zodiac movie will not work. It is deeply tied to the Spring Festival schedule and moved to other schedules, and the release effect may be greatly compromised.

Maybe because of original motivation, I later broke my promise to give up the zodiac movie series because the zodiac movie was too tied to the Spring Festival schedule!

Don't ask why...

The Spring Festival is an excellent time, no one will deny this, but a better time, especially during the Spring Festival, means the competition is fiercer.

If your own film is of excellent quality and is expected to win the championship, then it doesn't matter what the schedule is. But if the production level is mediocre, and it’s bound to the Spring Festival schedule and can’t be changed, isn’t it just pure cannon fodder?

Of course, this is just Gu Miao's guess.

Regarding the decline and disappearance of the Pleasant Goat Zodiac movie series, there have been many speculations on the Internet, and the deep binding of the Spring Festival movie is just one of them.

As for whether this is the truth?

Who knows! Anyway, it is definitely not a good thing for a movie series to be deeply tied to the Spring Festival schedule like this.

…

The big movie about Bears has not even been approved yet, not even a plan has been written, and production is out of the question.

But Gu Miao was not in a hurry.

Because compared to the Faraway Bear movie, there is another more important animation project on his desk right now.

"Guardian of Yangcun"!

This is the 19th work in the original Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf TV series. It is also an alternative sequel to the previous "Invention Wars" and one of the works in the Future Technology series.

Why is it the Guardian of Yangcun and not Hip Hop Entering the World, Happy Equation, or Yangyang Little Detective?

In fact, when Gu Miao first decided to return to the "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" TV series, the goal she set for herself was "Hip Hop Enters the World".

This is because he wanted to use "Hip Hop to Enter the World" to say goodbye to the past Pleasant Goat, and he didn't want to disappoint his former fans by using a juvenile style of painting as soon as he returned.

But then he thought about it.

What's the point of doing this?

If he makes "Hip Hop Enters the World" as soon as he returns, it will give fans unrealistic fantasies and lay the foundation for future changes to the youthful style of painting.

Instead of doing this, it is better to simply start from the young style of painting, so that fans can fully understand that the Pleasant Goat of today is no longer the Pleasant Goat of the past.

However, the fact that the style of painting has turned to a low-life style does not mean that the level of the plot has also dropped.

As the first TV animation for Gu Miao to return to the Pleasant Goat series, it still needs to show some strength. It cannot be ignored casually. At least the plot must reach the level of the weird and weird world, right?

Based on this premise, there are not many options that can meet Gu Miao's needs.

"Hip Hop Enters the World" was excluded due to the style of painting, so the only top-ranked games are "Invention Battle" and "Guardian of Yangcun".

Among them, Gu Miao chose the Guardian of Yangcun instead of the more advanced Invention War.

The reason is also very simple.

In his opinion, the Pleasant Goat animation series can be roughly divided into five stages. The first stage is the year when the first game was made and the Pleasant Goat was happy. This is the peak period.

The second stage is from whimsical Pleasant Goat to happy formula. This is the struggle period.

The third stage is when Lazy Yangyang becomes a chef and goes on adventures in the primitive world. This is a period of confusion.

The fourth stage is when hip-hop breaks into the world and reaches the fantasy sky island. This is the transition period.

The fifth stage starts from "Guardian of Yangcun" and continues to the latest seasons. This is an out-and-out revival period!

certainly!

It is said that there are five stages. In fact, in the fifth stage, which is the revival period, it can be further divided into two stages.

The first stage is the period when word-of-mouth, represented by "Guardian of Yangcun" and "Rescuing Soldiers Across Time and Space", rapidly rebounded and popularity began to rise.

The second stage is the return of the king represented by "Victory in the Basket" and "Battle of the Next Generation", a period of continuous pursuit of new breakthroughs.

Among them, the work "Yangcun Guardian" plays an extremely crucial role.

It can even be said that it was this work that completely turned around the reputation that had been out of control and had hit rock bottom due to the uninteresting style and plot.

Of course, it is also crucial for hip-hop to break into the world.

However, that was a work from Pleasant Goat's painting style when he was still young. Because of the special period, the reputation at that time was not as good as expected.

Pleasant Goat has been in the doldrums for a long time. Gu Miao is back now. He is not here to continue torturing the audience and himself. He is here to save this series.

Since we want to talk about salvation and living out the third and fourth lives, we cannot avoid the special work "Yangcun Guardian".

The Guardian of Yangcun can play such a key role in more than 20 TV animation series of Pleasant Goat, so there is something special about it.

Gu Miao summarized two points.

The first is the plot, which is no less than the plot from the eccentric world period. It does a very good job of attracting the audience.

The second is the fighting. The special effects of the fights produced during the Yang Shou period are all amazing. People can't believe that this is Pleasant Goat, and this is an animation for young children.

Don’t think about fighting first.

In the planning stage, Gu Miao focused on the plot. He first figured out the framework of the plot, and then filled it with various detailed contents.

"This is General Wolf, the chip master sent by the wolf clan to assist Big Big Wolf..."

At the planning seminar, Gu Miao gave everyone a brief description of the main plot content of "Yangcun Guardian".

To put it simply, Big Big Wolf failed to catch the sheep, so the wolf tribe sent a more powerful wolf general to attack Yangcun.

In order to defend Yangcun and defeat the chip-enhanced wolves headed by General Wolf, the lambs looked for various ways and accidentally obtained the magical weapons and equipment of senior Yang Guoguo.

Using these magical weapons, and teaming up with the reformed Big Big Wolf to defeat General Wolf, allowing him to see the truth clearly, and achieve the final peace between Wolf and Sheep.

Sounds boring?

More than one person, everyone in the conference room thought so, because the plot summary sounded so-so and not as surprising as imagined.

The only suspense may be, who is the senior Yang Guoguo? What exactly are the so-called enhanced chips and magical weapons and equipment?

Is it really that magical?

Could it be that the chips and magical weapons, which are not very eye-catching in the plot summary, are the key points in the plot of "Yangcun Guardian"?

I have read "Yang Shou" sporadically, but I haven't read it completely in order. I highly recommend that those who haven't seen it check it out...
