Chapter 19 Meng Zhe's Ambition
"Uncle Jiang, in fact... I don't plan to submit a contribution now. What I draw now is mainly for practicing writing. I think I still need to accumulate more knowledge, practice my painting skills, and watch the works of other cartoonists. When I feel that my accumulation is almost the same, I will consider the issue of submission.
After organizing his words, Meng Zhe answered Jiang Bai like this.
This is also Meng Zhe's truth. He hasn't even finished drawing the character sketches, settings and adaptations of the future comics in his memory...
According to Meng Zhe's prediction, he needs to be busy at least until the end of the year to complete the paper media recording and re-creation of all the works in his memory.
During this period, I just drew the first three or five words of one of them. As for publishing or something, there is still no shadow, so I have to talk about it until next year.
Improve all kinds of basic settings, which is a huge project.
Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about "Death", "Naruto" and "One Piece" which are called the new three major "Mit Worker Comics" and are referred to as "Sea of Dead Fire" by Meng Zhe. The main characters in these three animations are more than double digits, and each main character has completely different skills, as well as huge and complicated background settings... In addition to those supporting actors with a slightly lower frequency of appearances, how many pages do you have to draw just by drawing a setting picture?!
This is also the fundamental reason why Meng Zhe took four-panel comics such as "Light Voice Girl" to please his future wife and sister-in-law. Four-panel comics, the background and so on are very simple, so that you can save a lot of time to improve the materials of other comics, right?
......
After listening to Meng Zhe's explanation, Jiang Bai did not show that he was unhappy because of his opinion, but was very gratified.
"That's right! Wang Anshi, one of the eight masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, once wrote a fable article called "Injury Zhongyong". In the story, Zhong Yong, a prodigy, could write poems at the age of eight, but he wandered around because his father used it as a tool to make money. Zhong Yong, who did not accumulate, finally fell to 'the crowd'... Xiao Zhe, if you can understand this truth, I Don't worry!"
Jiang Bai directly cited the example of "Injured Zhongyong". After saying that, he thought about it and continued, "Xiao Zhe, I suggest you draw comics in the future and integrate more into the stories and ideas of our Chinese dynasties. In this way, the cartoons drawn will be more cultural, which is also good for you.
"Yes, uncle, you're right. Our country's culture is extensive and profound. If you casually pull out historical allusions, you can write a lot of stories.
Meng Zhe nodded, and then he cleared his throat and recited a few of his favorite poems: "Heavy Lake Stacked Qingjia, Sanqiu Guizi, Ten Miles of Lotus. Qiang Guan made it clear, Ling Ge was full of night, and he was playing fishing for the lotus baby. Thousands of riders have high teeth. Listen to Xiao Gu while drunk and enjoy the haze... Sooner or later, I will use my comics to tell you our long history and gorgeous culture of China!"
Meng Zhe was a little excited, and he even accidentally exposed his ambition and his plot.
Originally, Meng Zhe planned to adapt and re-create cartoons that integrate Chinese culture and promote Chinese culture, so as to achieve subtle cultural output while harvesting fame and money.
What is a real man? What is a man?
The heart is open to the ears... The five tripods are eaten, and the five tripods are cooked.
Since you have reworked and mastered so many resources, how can you do not do something that can be worshipped by future generations?!
With the output of a large number of comics, Ni Hongguo has successfully exported their culture to the whole world.
But what about China?
Even around 2010 in later generations, many foreigners' understanding of Chinese history is just ' braids', 'small feet', 'cheongsam' and the nondescript 'Tang costume'.
On the other hand, because of the Japanese animation, many things that were originally of the Chinese nation were regarded as mud bombardment by outsiders and even the Chinese themselves. Even his cat's stick country dares to go to the United Nations to commemorate the Dragon Boat Festival of Dr. Qu Yuan and apply for their country's intangible cultural heritage.
Every time Meng Zhe thinks about these things, he will be very, very unhappy!
"Good! It is to have such an ambition!"
Jiang Bai patted the table, and Meng Zhe's words aroused his high resonance! What does it mean to be ambitious? This is ambitious!
Other children, at this age, either say 'study hard and make progress every day', which they don't quite understand, or 'be a scientist when they grow up' and so on, and they will never realize when they grow up.
But this little guy, this Meng Zhe, has taken practical action again, with a clear goal and is moving towards his set goal!
Just now, the child read Liu Yong, a famous euphemistic lyricist, and one of the few bold Song lyrics "Wanghaichao".
It is said that the Jin people who competed with the Northern Song Dynasty, after reading this word that spread all over the world, were seduced by the sentence 'three autumn osmanthus seeds, ten miles of lotus flowers' in the word, and gave birth to the will to invade the south...
Although this is not a good allusion, and the fact is not so, the great attraction of ancient Chinese culture to the outside world can be seen from this!
"Xiao Zhe, you need any historical classics or comics, just talk to my uncle! Uncle, there is nothing else at home. How much do you need for books?"
Jiang Bai, who entered the state, patted his chest and continued to say that he really wanted to help Meng Zhe.
"Historical classics?" Meng Zhe repeated the word, and then he really said, "Uncle Jiang, do you have the pre-Qin history of Cambridge Chinese History? By the way, we also need the Ming Dynasty history of Cambridge Chinese History, Mirror Flower, and..."
Speaking of which, Meng Zhe really needs historical classics now.
According to Meng Zhe's plan, "Naruto" will be adapted by him into a cartoon of the pre-Qin families. Although it adopts a different time and space setting, the characters and ideas of the pre-Qin families must be studied.
Therefore, the history of the pre-Qin Dynasty must be read.
As for the part of the history of the Ming Dynasty and "Jing Hua Yuan", this is indeed related to the adaptation of "One Piece". Meng Zhe intends to change the One Piece to a story involving Zheng He's voyage to the West, and Zheng He, who went to the West, is not exactly a character of the Ming Dynasty?
As for "Jing Hua Yuan" and so on, "Jing Hua Yuan" is one of the few novels related to navigation in ancient Chinese novels. Many strange countries set in it can be used.
Of course, after being adapted and re-created, the background of One Piece will be completely changed to a nearly completely fictional fantasy world.
For example, Zheng He in this time and space did not come back to the West for the last time...
"Cambridge's pre-Qin history? ...It seems that this hasn't been published yet? But there are others. Let's go - I'll take you to the study!" Jiang Bai grabbed Meng Zhe's little arm and dragged Meng Zhe straight to the study.
When Jiang Bai and Meng Zhe entered the study at home, Jiang Xiyao immediately cheered and grabbed the manuscript of the light-tone girl on the table and held them tightly in her arms.
"Mom, Meng Zhe just read ten miles of lotus flowers or something. What kind of poem is it?"
After grabbing the manuscript, Jiang Xiyao, the little girl, turned her head and looked at Hu Caiwei, who showed helpless eyes to her and asked.
