Josie Norris focused on his work, and his bold and direct eyes gradually became hot. He listened attentively to his words, so that his attention began to be a little "distracted" -- he completely forgot his serious work, and just focused on his every move.
The eyes were too hot and the expression was too supportive. When he felt it from a close distance, lanli couldn't resist. "I'm here to visit the super marine crew today..." lanli could only mention his intention and pause for a moment, waiting for Josie's answer.
But I didn't expect that Josie just looked at him and nodded, but didn't give a response. It was also a headache, so I had to say, "I don't have an appointment. I just communicated with the crew in advance to understand the situation, saying that they would be here all day." Josie still didn't respond, and lanli could only face Josie's eyes and communicate with her eyes.
Josie took a long time to respond, "Oh, yes, yes." But it was just a conditioned response. After that, he was stunned again, as if he had thought about it carefully. This time, he really came back to himself, "right!" You're going to dub this work After that, he realized that lanli himself was standing in front of him and quickly laughed, "I mean, are you here to dub today? No problem, of course not! "
Then, Josie lowered her head and began to get busy, putting everything on the table.
"Here is the access list. You need to sign here. Here is your access card. And then... The super marine crew is on 2111. Take the elevator to the 21st floor and you can see it. The sign of the crew will be hung at the door of the room, so don't worry about finding the wrong place. "
A long string of garrulous words finished, but Lan Li did not answer.
Josie raised her head slowly, then saw the smile at the corner of blue Li's mouth, frowned slightly, and asked confusedly, "sign up? Are you sure? "
Although it is now 2014, some companies still keep the habit of handwritten registration, while some companies use computers to complete registration, which is not surprising; The problem is that the current registration form is clearly in 2011, and the registration time is three years ago. Isn't that right?
"..." Josie opened her mouth and tried to explain, but under the gaze of Langley, she was defeated in the end. "I hope you can sign for me, but now I'm working, it's not convenient." Eyes quietly raised, indicating the direction of the ceiling, subtext is the monitor is recording their every move.
Just when Josie thought that lanli would continue to investigate, or simply refuse, lanli didn't say much, but bowed down and wrote down his name on the so-called visit registration form.
Then, Lan Li handed the registration form to the staff in front of him, took his access card, nodded his head with a smile, and then turned to walk in the direction of the elevator.
Josie leaned out of the front desk and watched the figure of blue Li's leaving. When she couldn't see it, she took her eyes back and glanced at the registration form.
"To Josie, Langley hall."
A simple line of words made Josh want to scream - she didn't introduce herself to lanli, but lanli noticed her work card and wrote her name. Such a small detail was enough to make Josh happy all day. But now, she had to pretend that nothing had happened and straighten her back, Then slowly put that registration form collection, still keep calm sitting at the front desk, immersed in their own world, slowly aftertaste.
……
Lanli stopped at the door of the studio and looked at the poster beside the door seriously. It seemed that he was in no hurry to enter the room.
A strong aroma of coffee wafted along the ventilation pipe of the corridor. The trivial sound of footsteps on the carpet turned into a puff of friction. I don't know if it was an illusion. It was a little cute. Then the footsteps stopped beside lanli, but they didn't rush to speak. Instead, they projected along lanli's line of sight and began to observe carefully.
"You don't like it?" The sound of searching came from the side.
Lan Li gently shook his head, eyes still did not leave, "I just think... A little strange."
"Why?" The other side also discussed, "which part?"
"He said. I mean, he should be my character, right? " Lanli pointed to the main characters on the poster, that is the hero Xiaohong and robot Dabai.
"Yes, you don't?" The other side raised the same question.
Langley shrugged. "I can't say I like it, but I can't say I don't like it. It's a very strange feeling. " After a pause, Lan Li looked carefully again. "I don't know. There's no way to find the exact adjective."
Why?
In the works with humans as animation characters, the cartoon image will more or less learn from the appearance and outline of some dubbing actors, which may not be 100% the same - or even less than 50%. But the creators do capture some charm or temperament characteristics, and then complete the creation of cartoon image according to the attributes of animation.
It's the same with super Marines.
This is a story taking place in the future world. The city was created and conceived based on the two cities of San Francisco and Tokyo. The protagonist of the story, Xiao Hong, is a mixed race - Asian and American, so his name and his brother's name are quite special. He is called "Hiro", homophonic "hero", which can be translated as Xiao Hong; His brother is called "Tadashi" and translated as a Zheng.
Therefore, in the creation of Xiao Hong and a Zheng, the image must integrate the characteristics of mixed race and give more color to the characters.
At one time, Disney wanted to find real Asian Americans to dub Xiao Hong and a Zheng, but later, due to the accident of van diesel and "Galaxy guard", lanli appeared in sight. After weighing, Disney finally chose blue Lilly to dub "super Marine Corps"——
In fact, now looking back, Disney can invite lanli to play in a live action movie, which is much more cost-effective. After all, the real hero of the animation is the director and the team. The dubbing actors can only be regarded as a part of the whole team, and the box office appeal of the actors is relatively limited.
Now, when the creative team conceives Xiaohong, they must also refer to the appearance of lanli and... Integrate the lines and lineages of Asian descent.
As a result, the image presented in front of Lan Li has a huge deviation from the previous life.
First of all, this is the first time that lanli has seen his cartoon image. It's really an interesting thing. He can vaguely see his outline and temperament, but he is an animated cartoon character. Then he can make up his mind. In the future, this character may appear in peripheral products, and he will suddenly become animated. That is definitely a very unique experience.
If that's all, Lan Li is just curious, but the important thing is
Secondly, in the cartoon characters in front of him, he can actually capture Chu Jiashu's appearance features, just like... It's just like Chu Jiashu and Lan Li's facial features and eye temperament are combined, one angle looks like Lan Li, another angle looks like Chu Jiashu, and another angle looks like Chu Jiashu.
This made Lan Li have an idea: so, is this the combination of the two people's appearance? So, is the similarity between them the reason why he went through rebirth? Or is the sequence reversed, because he was reborn as Lan Li, so the shadow of Chu Jiashu appeared in Lan Li's gene? If we further imagine, it seems that we can weave a science fiction novel.
This strange sense stopped him.
However, this idea of brain opening is only understood by Lan Li, which is totally impossible for others to understand.
Is that a secret you can't tell?
Standing next to him, Chris Williams has a completely different perspective. "So you're not the kind of person who fantasizes about becoming a cartoon character and then risks killing enemies in the game? Especially when you see the role-playing protagonists go through the customs, you can't feel the excitement and happiness? "
game?
"... no, I don't play games." Lenley felt that his ideas and Williams were not on the same track at all.
Williams shrugged his shoulders, but then took a deep breath and "perked up" again. "So, when you see your work on the big screen, do you feel embarrassed?"
There is a kind of actor who has no way to appreciate his performance. It has nothing to do with the quality of his performance. Instead, he looks at his skin projected on the screen. That kind of sense is very strange.
"I have no problem. So many premieres have survived, not to collapse Lan Li joked in a relaxed tone.
Williams chuckled. "You'll get used to it. The visual senses brought by cartoon characters are softer. You'll like the little macro in the cartoon." Then Williams mysteriously approached lenley and said, "I tell you, we've been with this character for more than a year, and now we all think he's a friend, the closest friend. To be honest, I'm a little excited to see you now. "
Chris Williams is one of the two directors of super marine.
"..." this is not what Lan Li expected - not because of his identity and fame, but because of his cartoon image. The thought in my mind turned around, and then I suddenly realized, "is this the reason why Manzhan is so popular?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Williams nodded again and again, and the smile on his face bloomed directly. "That's what I mean. Now I feel that you are playing Xiao Hong, COSPLAY. You should be the most similar person in the world to play Xiao Hong. Oh, I'm a little excited."
"Cosplay", for the first time, lanli felt that his brain couldn't catch up with the other party: where is this?
