When several people present heard what Xu Qingru said, their ears immediately pricked up.
Especially Chen Mengguo, after she learned that the world view, character settings, etc. of her favorite galgame "FSN" were all created by Xu Qingru, she developed a "high mountain" mentality towards this girl.
Not to mention "FSN", the subsequent "Arknights" also interested her very much in its world view, character settings, etc. As long as this game is online, she will definitely give it a try.
Even though this teacher Meng Guo already has her own famous work "Youth Love Song", her family knows about her family affairs. She thinks that her painting skills are pretty good, especially the "fresh and juicy" paintings.
But as for my own originality ability, it is relatively average.
She had actually always wanted to find a reliable "original author" to work with on comics, but unfortunately, as a master of fandom in the dark world, she really couldn't make it to the stage...
Of course, Chen Mengguo is happy to see her niece collaborate with Xu Qingru, and she also feels that Jiang Xue's talent in painting battle scenes is undoubtedly more suitable for use in the field of animation.
No matter how appealing the comics are, they are still relatively restrictive after all. As for animations, as long as the battle scenes don’t stretch your hips and are paired with BGM and the characters’ classic lines, it will become very popular!
If you ask anyone on the street whether they prefer to buy comic books or just watch animations, 80% of them will choose the latter.
When Xu Qingru was talking about the setting of "QB", he also drew a simple sketch of it, which instantly gave people a very cute feeling. Its appearance is indeed like a cute pet that looks harmless to humans and animals.
When Jiang Xue saw the appearance of this cute pet, she suddenly became excited: "I know, this is the protagonist's contracted pet, right? Many magical girl-themed works have this classic setting!"
Xu Qingru's smile became even more joyful: "Yes, it will have a classic saying - sign a contract with me and become a magical girl."
Then she explained the world view setting of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" on the surface -
First of all, the gems produced through the contract between the girls selected by QB are not only the source of magic power, but also proof of being a magical girl.
QB can fulfill any wish of the girls, and can trigger any miracle, but at the cost of it is the [Soul Gem]. The person who gets this gem will be given the mission to fight the witch.
And if magical girls are born from wishes, witches are existences born through curses. Just like magical girls spread hope, witches spread despair, and because ordinary people cannot see them, their nature is even worse. Unrest and suspicion, excessive anger and hatred bring these seeds of disaster into the world.
There is a high probability that unidentified suicides or murders are caused by the witch's curse, which turns into disembodied malice and begins to corrode humans from the inside.
The witch always hides in the barrier and will never appear in front of people. People who are swallowed by the witch's barrier generally cannot come back alive.
Although the girl selected by QB has the opportunity to realize any wish, it is accompanied by the risk of death, so the girl must carefully consider whether there is a wish worth risking her life to realize.
Of course, if you defeat the witch, you may get a corresponding reward, which is the [Seed of Lament] - the witch's egg, which the witch sometimes carries with her.
Using the Seed of Lament can purify the soul gem that has become turbid in color, and at the same time restore the consumed magic power.
If the Seed of Lament absorbs enough filth, it may hatch into a witch.
If you have extra Lament Seeds, you don't need to begrudge the magic, even if you waste it.
The more magic is used, the more filth accumulates in the Soul Gem.
When Xu Qingru said this, Jiang Xue, who had a relatively simple brain circuit, was already a little dizzy. She subconsciously felt that QB, this "cute pet", was not simple. It seemed that its setting had a contract with the heroines in other magical girl themes. Pets are not a concept.
However, Xu Qingru's brother Xu Mingwei reacted faster. He seemed to have seen through his sister: "This wish can make any wish come true. As soon as I heard it, I knew that there was a malicious intention of a knife-wielding demon..."
Chen Mengguo also seemed to realize: "It's not like the Holy Grail in "FSN". The wish made to it is fulfilled in a way that completely distorts the wishing person's mind."
Xu Qingru smiled faintly: "That's not the case this time. QB is an absolutely rational creature, or it is the incubator. When the magical girl fights to the end, her mentality turns from hope to despair, and the [Soul Gem] naturally transforms into [ Seed of Lament]...Humans call growing women girls, so those who will eventually become witches should be called magical girls.”
When she threw out this setting, Xu Mingwei took a breath. Unexpectedly, the "villain" in the work "Witch" was actually transformed from the exclusive profession of "Magical Girl", the "protagonist"?
Then the question arises. Once magical girls make a wish, there is no way back. They have to keep fighting and fall into an endless cycle. Even the most hopeful and positive magical girls will probably be exhausted in the end. I want to become a witch!
Chen Mengguo couldn't help but said: "The setting of this world view is really inexplicably desperate. Are you sure that children will not be dumbfounded after reading such a magical girl-themed work?"
Many children have long been accustomed to watching magical girl-themed works where "kingdom unfolds", but Xu Qingru created "Puella Magi Madoka Magica". This world view setting is simply full of malice towards "magical girls"!
Jiang Xue also complained at this time: "Sister Aru, admit it, in fact, your body is QB, right?"
Xu Qingruxin said that she was bound to the "Gate of Literature and Art", and she really felt like QB. To gain literary and artistic value, she had to constantly depress the readers. The more desperate the readers were, all of this turned into the power that made her stronger. !
In "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", QB basically eats both magical girls and witches, constantly harvesting them during the transformation process, so this is why there is a famous saying "QB must die".
Although QB did not deceive the magical girls on the surface, in fact it only selectively revealed some information.
Xu Qingru did not go into details, but the settings she threw out seemed to be poisonous, making Xu Mingwei and Chen Mengguo unable to stop.
Yes, subversive works like "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" are actually more attractive to older people!
Because it can indeed be interpreted in depth. Does it mean that the magical girl becomes a witch as if destined to be a witch? Doesn't it also symbolize that many people have also fallen in the process of growing up? The dragon slayer eventually turned into an evil dragon...
If this is extended, then the depth of this magical girl-themed work has increased by so many levels!
Even closer to reality, "QB" can be regarded as a symbol of capital, while magical girls are workers.
The reason is that QB never works, it only collects profits from the working witches. After the girl signs a labor contract with QB, she will become a magical girl, that is, a non-person. This is the alienation of capital from people, turning you into a magical girl. Even if you become a non-human being, you still have to say that it is for your own good and that it is a blessing you have gained through cultivation.
Capital will not tell you the truth, and although it may not necessarily deceive, it will control people by manipulating information.
In addition to extracting surplus value on a daily basis, QB will also blow up huge bubbles by "making wishes", and then harvest leeks and make huge profits when the magical girl turns from hope to despair.
After one QB goes bankrupt, another QB will immediately come up and devour it.
Capital cares about efficiency, and qb also cares about efficiency. Capital will also come up with many theories to justify itself. The important thing is that ignorant girls who cannot understand the truth of the universe have no choice but to believe what they hear.
QB can never be killed or finished because capital never dies. Capital always advertises that it has made great contributions to mankind. It seems that without capital, human civilization would not be able to develop to this point.
With this interpretation, does it mean that the style of "Madoka Magica" is different again, and that it has become a work that criticizes capital?
So this is the charm of classic animation. If it was just a simple magical girl-themed work, it would not be so popular. It has frequent famous memes and remains popular for many years...
Although both Chen Mengguo and Xu Mingwei have been moved by Xu Qingru's subversive world view setting, Jiang Xue's reaction is more realistic. The magical girl theme she wants to create is really not this "depressing" and "God unfolds" type!
But I have to say that Jiang Xue is also really curious about how the magical girls, or the main characters, act in such a subversive world view, and how they react after discovering the truth.
Jiang Xue had to admit that although Xu Qingru's strange ideas made her first reaction be, how could a magical girl-themed work have such a setting and be so cruel, but next, her thought was, really I really want to watch the plot!
Maybe this is the charm of "anti-kingdom" and "anti-routine". It's like an online reader who is tired of the mainstream kingly themes and naturally wants to change his taste.
In this parallel world of China, magical girl-themed works have undoubtedly reached a bottleneck. It feels like no matter how much you create, you can no longer break away from the established frameworks and routines.
What I didn't expect was that Xu Qingru would appear with "Puella Magi Madoka Magica"...
Although Xu Mingwei was initially hesitant that his sister would use this "magical girl" themed animation to train the team, he was completely sold after that.
The older you get in the second dimension, the more you can't refuse the charm of "Madoka", and of course "Hori Akatsuki" who has been fighting for "Madoka" and reincarnated endlessly.
"As long as this animation can be made perfectly, our 'Aiyu' company will also have the big IP of 'Madoka', and even these magical girl characters can appear in the game. After forming a linkage, their power will be It's pretty amazing," she concluded.
Xu Qingru is still looking forward to the classic characters such as "Shikame Madoka" and "Xiao Meiyan" appearing in the game, whether it is a mobile card game or a moba mobile game. It feels like being able to play them in the game will make them feel... Very pleasant surprise.
Earth World seems to have released a mobile game based on this IP, but it didn't make any waves. The big IP that really made money was "FGO", which was derived from the Fate series.
Due to copyright reasons in the earth world, it is difficult to connect classic characters with classic characters. However, in this parallel world, Xu Qingru can completely reproduce all those classic two-dimensional characters and then present them in games under the "Aiyou" banner. , she felt happy just thinking about it.
…
It was on this day that Xu Qingru, because of the topic raised by Jiang Xue, actually made the "iyou" company have a new animation project, and the name was "Puella Magi Madoka Magica"!
The most outrageous thing is that this animation project was finally approved!
The reason is of course that after Xu Qingru returned, she had a good time and extracted almost all the essence inside. As for the specific details, of course she didn't need to worry about it.
As for the original animator of this animation, Xu Qingru directly pushed Jiang Xue. The style of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" is called "healing", and the characters in it are all cute and cute with "little round faces". Can it not be cured?
Yes, in fact, the characters in this work are not beautiful, but its focus is not on whether the characters are good-looking or not, but on its world view setting, plot development, and even the extremely artistic battles. The battle in the witch's space is like an abstract painting!
Xu Qingru was very relieved to leave such a battle scene to Jiang Xue, and Jiang Xue was also very motivated to create, especially after she felt the charm of "Shikama Madara".
She even regarded Xu Qingru as the human form of "Yuan Shen". As for her, of course she was "Xiao Meiyan".
Of course, the employees of "iyou" company are also particularly interested in this animation work. Who can resist the charm of this subversion of traditional themes?
Just like that, when the "Aiyou" company announced the news on its official website and the "Aiyoushe" community app, the players who followed this company because of "FSN" were immediately shocked -
"What are you doing? You, a game company that makes niche galgames, are doing animation instead of doing your job?"
"Although I admit that some of the animated CGs in "FSN" are very well-made, but those are all outsourced, right? Now we need to train our own team?"
"I'm not optimistic about this animation project at all. It's actually a magical girl theme. What's the point of such a childish animation for children?"
"Now is the era when "Magical Girl Satsuki" dominates the world. Don't blindly compete with others in this field. Satsuki is the flagship work of the industry's top animation company 'Yimeng', and it has been released for three seasons... If you insist on making "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", isn't it doomed to failure?"
"If you want to make animation, just make animation. Just don't delay the development of "Arknights". Anyway, I think this game is much more interesting than some completely outdated magical girl-themed animation!"
"Did Big Viagra, the president of 'Aiyou' company, have a brain twitch, or was he completely ignored? He actually made such an outrageous decision!"
