Parental Love: Jiang Weimin's Life of Lying Down

Chapter 196 The Legend of Sword and Fairy

Jiang Weimin suddenly became interested, "I've already thought about it, so why should I be embarrassed? Tell me now!"

The man hesitated for a moment, looked at his companions again, and then mustered up the courage to say, "Teacher Jiang, I'll tell you then!"

Jiang Weimin raised his voice and said, "Hurry up and speak. Don't waste time."

"Teacher Jiang, we plan to select characters from the story of "The Monkey King" to portray!" Several people carefully expressed their ideas.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Weimin showed a look of astonishment on his face, and couldn't help thinking that he was planning to draw the entire universe structure of "The Monkey King"!

Jiang Weimin's surprise gradually turned into confusion, and he slowly said, "The most outstanding characters in "The Monkey King" are indeed Nezha and Erlang Shen, and their growth process is also reflected in the comic strip I drew."

"Teacher Jiang, you drew their growth process in a relatively simple way. We want to depict it in detail."

Jiang Weimin frowned slightly and said, "Even this character is not enough for you to share!"

"Teacher Jiang, we plan to collaborate with each other on creation."

Jiang Weimin thought for a moment and said, "Okay then! You guys are still going to use the character image of The Monkey King that I designed, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Jiang! You won't object, will you?"

Jiang Weimin said secretly in his heart, given the current market environment, is it useful for me to oppose it?

When the leader forces me to submit a plan, I will definitely take it out. When the leader sees that there is a plan, he will definitely push it down.

So Jiang Weimin said calmly, "It's okay, just create as you like, but there is one thing, the characters you use cannot exceed the combat power of the characters I draw.

If your drawing is too exaggerated, it won’t be consistent with my story and may affect your sales.”

Several people showed joy on their faces and said gratefully, "Thank you, Teacher Jiang, for your guidance."

Jiang Weimin had never expected that he would agree this time.

In the future, during the period when copyright law has not yet been enacted in China, he has become an object that can be repeatedly "fleeced".

Whenever other creators are at a loss for ideas for a painting, they will take a character from Jiang Weimin's comic strip and create their own, cleverly taking advantage of Jiang Weimin's popularity.

Surprisingly, they have been able to reap great rewards every time they have done so.

However, Jiang Weimin was happy to see this situation.

In his opinion, only when the comic book market is prosperous and more people draw, can everyone work together to expand the territory abroad and push Chinese comic books to a broader world stage.

Jiang Weimin knows that the power of one person is limited, and only when everyone works together can Chinese comic strips shine more brightly internationally.

Although he may be constantly "borrowed" in the process, he is willing to make such sacrifices for a greater goal.

When it comes to foreign themes, it is indeed a big problem, as each country has different national conditions and prefers different themes.

Jiang Weimin has been thinking deeply during this period and has already come up with a rough idea.

Jiang Weimin’s idea is to use passionate battles and novel settings to make foreigners gradually accept the fairy tale culture.

Then Jiang Weimin planned to implement a clever "Confucianism under the guise of a legalist" strategy.

Well-known foreign classic plots such as The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Naruto are cleverly covered with the gorgeous cloak of fairy-tale culture.

Jiang Weimin knows very well that this is not an easy task. He has been repeatedly considering how to integrate the essence of different cultures while maintaining the unique charm of fairy-xia culture.

After careful consideration, Jiang Weimin finally chose "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" as his first fairy-tale work.

This work has a rich plot, profound characters and a strong fairy-tale atmosphere.

Jiang Weimin believes that through the careful adaptation and creation of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", he can open a door for foreigners to understand the fairy tale culture.

The most important thing is that "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" fully displays China's traditional fairy culture, including fairy practice, spells, magic weapons, monsters and other elements, allowing players to feel the charm of Chinese traditional culture in the game.

It can be used as an enlightenment work for Xianxia culture abroad.

There is also the grand fairy-hero worldview in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy". In this fairy-hero world, there are forces such as the Shushan School, the Nanzhao Kingdom, and the Moon Worshiping Sect.

In this world, there are all kinds of magical spells, magic weapons, monsters and gods, such as the sword-wielding skills of the Shushan School, Ling'er's Nuwa power, the evil spells of the Moon Worshiping Sect, etc.

The whole story revolves around the struggle between justice and evil. Li Xiaoyao and others continue to grow and shoulder the mission of saving the people. The plot is ups and downs, full of thrilling adventures and challenges.

For example, the many clashes between Li Xiaoyao and others and the Moon Worship Cult, as well as the final decisive battle to stop the water monster from harming the human world, all demonstrate the grandeur and splendor of this fairy world.

The most important thing is that the core of the story is the pure and steadfast love between Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Linger.

The most important thing is that even if this work is not well accepted by Europeans and Americans, it can still earn foreign exchange in Asia.

After all, this story was very successful in the previous life both as a game and as a TV series.

It was vacation time, and Jiang Weimin naturally felt a strong desire to go home.

After all, he hadn't been home for more than half a year.

However, at this time, the work progress of "Havoc in Heaven" had already been fixed, basically maintaining the pace of one film per month.

After careful consideration, Jiang Weimin made a proper arrangement based on the current work progress.

He decided to divide the remaining fifteen people into two groups for rest, and each person could get ten days of vacation.

The main reason is that it takes four or five days to go home and back by train. If we have less time, it will not be enough.

This arrangement allows everyone to get enough rest without slowing down work progress too much.

Before going home, Jiang Weimin did not dare to slack off at all. He carefully listed his painting plans one by one.

He carefully considered every detail, from the composition of the picture to the color matching, from the character's expression to the action design, and made detailed plans.

Jiang Weimin knew that only by making adequate preparations could he modify everyone's paintings more efficiently after returning.

Jiang Weimin arranged for the administration to buy train tickets for all those returning home, and Jiang Weimin paid for one for Jiang Yafei as well.

Afterwards, Jiang Weimin and Jiang Yafei boarded a train together. They first went to Qingdao Publishing House, greeted everyone, and then stayed overnight at Jiang Weimin's home.

The next morning, I drove back to the military compound early.
