Chapter 861: Ideas
Qin Ya was indeed keeping her word. In the following weeks, she led the animation artists to do a lot of work to promote "The Rebellious Lelouch".
With their activity, "The Rebellious Lelouch" has skyrocketed in popularity, and Phoenix has held various events and programs to promote it. Before the animation of "Blue Love Song" was launched, its rapid growth seemed to have turned the restraint of "Blue Love Song" into something within reach.
Many people in Phoenix Company were relieved. At least at this stage, they have not discovered the growth limit of "Rebellious Lelouch" yet, but the result of the matter will not appear immediately. If you want to know whether you can restrain "Blue Love Song", you still have to wait until it is broadcast.
Zhongxia Company also acted very quickly. A week after the insider news was learned by Phoenix Company, they officially announced the animation news of "Blue Love Song", which caused a great sensation in the society. However, surprisingly, the launch of this animation was actually June.
Although it has entered April, it is still one and a half months before the broadcast date of "Blue Love Song", which has unexpectedly happened to everyone in Phoenix Company - and after careful analysis, Zhongxia Company also has a reason to do so.
First of all, the busyness of the angels and the high requirements of "Blue Love Song" have led to the prolongation of the animation production cycle. Then Zhongxia Company also needs to leave enough publicity time, just one and a half months. Then there is the problem of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", which will be completed in May.
In this way, "Blue Love Song" avoids competition with "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", and can further observe whether Meng Huo's next successor animation is "Detective Conan". If so, Zhongxia can still leave time to formulate countermeasures.
The broadcast time of "Blue Love Song" is the final result of discussion by Zhongxia Company - of course they also want to launch the animation earlier. But the effect seems to be better if it is later.
However, in this way, Phoenix Company also got time and made every effort to prepare. Alice was responsible for competing with Zhongxia Company over the past few months. During this period, Meng Huo's work was still the same, and he continued to steadily create works such as "Wine of Immortality".
But work is the same, but Meng Huo's life has changed. He stayed in Ninghai more frequently to accompany Li Qin, which made Li Qin particularly happy. In addition, in mid-April, Meng Huo received a new round of assessments at two universities in Yanjing.
He naturally obtained the approval of the two schools after a period of research and discussion. After a period of research and discussion, the schools unanimously decided to adopt a very strict assessment method for Meng Huo - they conducted rounds of assessments on half a year semester.
Taking Yenching University as an example, before the assessment, Yenching University admitted Meng Huo's achievements in the two academic years of freshman year and sophomore year. If Meng Huo wants to graduate next year, his hands-on ability in medicine will take one year to assess. Professors of the medical school put "actual ability" first. This part of the ability is different from theoretical courses. The assessment requires a lot of practical examinations. The length of the one-year assessment period is already their bottom line. If there are fewer people, Meng Huo can give up directly.
After Meng Huo accepted the proposal for this assessment, he wanted to successfully graduate next year, and he had to complete all theoretical academic examinations before the end of the semester in July this year, including all juniors and part of the senior four and five. There were four rounds in total.
In April, he received the assessment of the first and third semesters in the first semester. There were more than a dozen subjects. The professors were not as polite as before. The test papers arranged were even more difficult than other students studying at Yenching University.
According to Xingboxiang, that is——"Our school will not allow unqualified students to graduate. You have to graduate early. Then you must prove that you are better than other students."
In order to assess these dozen subjects, Meng Huo specially took three days to stay in Yanjing. The tests were more than four subjects every day. Even he felt the huge pressure, but he still persisted until the end.
When the last subject exam was over, Meng Huoda breathed a sigh of relief. When he walked out of the separate examination room with his pen, Xing Boxiang was already waiting for him at the door.
"I did a good job in the exam." As soon as we met, she gave Meng Huo a high evaluation: "The professors of the medical school have told me your grades two days ago, and all subjects passed high scores... It seems that today's results should not be bad either."
Meng Huo nodded. He had been preparing for this exam for half a month, so there was no reason for not being successful.
"But don't be too at ease. The next two months of three rounds of exams are the highlight." Xingboxiang laughed and said, "If you fail in one subject during this period, I can't allow you to graduate early."
Meng Huo smiled bitterly: "This pressure is even greater than I thought."
The current assessment pressure does exceed Meng Huo's expectations. Not only does the test paper increase in difficulty, but there are also many subjects. And the key is that it is not only one school that he wants to "pass the level", but also three rounds of exams in the Conservatory of Music. Although it is not as many as Yenching University, it is not easy to pass... In addition, what about Suhua University?
Although he has the power and the eyes that he has never forgotten to support Meng Huo, it is not impossible for him to pass the assessment of three schools for several years in a few months, but this pressure does make Meng Huo a little breathless - but even so, he still wants to graduate early.
Xing Boxiang accompanied Meng Huo out of the teaching building. She wanted to invite Meng Huo to have dinner in the canteen of Yanjing University, but when she went out, it was actually a hazy drizzle in the sky.
Since April, rain has appeared more and more frequently. The arrival of the plum rain season will not change due to people's ideas. Xingboxiang can only give up the idea of inviting Meng Huo to dinner.
"The weather has been really annoying recently..." She sighed, waiting for the driver to pick him up.
"Sentimental Season." Meng Huo responded with a laugh: "Many comics have added a sentimental atmosphere recently."
Recently, he discovered a strange phenomenon when he was reading the Phoenix Company's comic magazine. The emotions of many cartoonists have changed due to time. In the plum rain season, there are more comics describing emotions and sentimentality.
Xing Boxiang giggled when she heard this, and she felt the same way.
"You cartoonists sometimes understand it." She smiled and said, "You are the exception. By the way, I always think that the reason why you want to graduate early is strange. If you are afraid of trouble, isn't it easier to graduate normally?"
Xingboxiang asked strangely that Meng Huo applied for graduation, and the written reason was because he wanted to get a diploma early in his work, but this reason was untenable. The majors of the three universities did not have much necessity for Meng Huo's career.
In private, Meng Huo's statement is more credible. He said that he wanted to solve the troubles earlier and did not want to drag it all the time. This sounded very convincing. But Xing Boxiang thought about it afterwards and it seemed that it was not right.
If you are afraid of trouble, the original model will have a small impact on his work. Now that things are compressed together, wouldn’t it be even more troublesome? And - is Meng Huo a person who is afraid of trouble?
"Do you have any other reason to do this? For example, what should you do after you get your diploma?" Xingboxiang asked, "It's not inconvenient to speak out, I won't tell anyone."
Meng Huo looked at Xingboxiang in surprise. Sure enough, ginger was still too old. Alice had no reason to doubt him. Unexpectedly, Xingboxiang actually doubted it. However, there seemed to be no reason to not tell Xingboxiang about this matter. She is an outsider and has a guaranteed character and will not talk to the outside world.
"Yeah." So Meng Huo hesitated for a few seconds and nodded: "Actually, I want to go out for a break next year."
"Relaxation?"
"Yes, relax..." Meng Huo laughed and said, "It's probably a long time to relax, but it may take more than a year..."
Xingboxiang was shocked. This was not relaxing, it was clearly just leaving!
"You're not drawing comics?"
"No, the comics are still a picture." Meng Huo shook his head. He no longer needs to stay in the same place to draw: "But animations and movies should not be involved... Of course, I will develop several teams this year, so it should not be a problem for you, animation audiences and Phoenix."
With the directors joining, Phoenix's system will further mature in the future. Meng Huo estimated that by next year's graduation season, he could already do a lot of things-and he also wanted to go out for a walk, just like a few years ago.
He wants to relax and spend a long time thinking about how he will live in his life. Travel is a good choice.
"Can anyone contact you then?" Xingboxiang was surprised and asked, "It won't disappear out of thin air like before, right?"
"Of course not..." Meng Huo shook his head. He was not running away from home this time, and the contact was completely unobstructed. If there was any urgent matter, he would come back.
Xingboxiang then breathed a sigh of relief. This was relaxing, not running away, so there was no need to worry. On the contrary, she was very curious: "Where are you going?"
"Central Asia and Europe." Meng Huo replied that he had already walked through the Far East and China, and his next destination was Central Asia and Europe. In fact, simply put, it was to go west from China. Perhaps in the next few years, he would also go to other continents.
In fact, he was influenced by He Qian in his previous life, and he had the idea of looking around in his bones, especially in this new world. If he didn't walk around, Meng Huo always felt that he had been in vain in his life.
