Even at Ghibli, there are difficult bosses, uncooperative colleagues and painful deadlines.

If you are in Ghibli, your boss is Hayao Miyazaki, and the author of "The Wind Rises" released worldwide , can only follow the boss's thinking? --Will there be different moods?

Documentary, used to know a person.

Then it comes to understanding the person's values, the way he does things, and the strengths and weaknesses that make him successful.

This work is very peaceful to watch. I have more thoughts about my career in the period of confusion.

1. There is no easy job, even Miyazaki and Takahata are being urged and pushed to deadline.

The only constant is that they are constantly creating, insisting on slow work and meticulous work. No matter how difficult it is, you can't lose the obsession in your heart.

At the end of the article, when it comes to Mr. Hayao Miyazaki, the older he gets, the more obsessive and serious he is with his works.

No matter where you are, there is no easy, easy and high-paying job.

As Gong Lao said: when you get it, you are also losing it.

2. Corporate culture:

Let's do what you like to do together, exercise your ability to do something big, and if Ghibli is no longer attractive to you, quit your job.

If it's a cake, it's my favorite cake.

I am a technical worker, I prefer a relaxed atmosphere and do not like micro-management. Just tell me the goals and the time and leave the rest alone. And what I want is to do things I like with a group of like-minded people and keep improving. In the process, I believe that what I want will come to me.

Reasons Ghibli fired employees:

None of these are professional abilities, but there are multiple descriptions of professional ethics and good character.

I think this is the core culture of a company. Of course, it is also for business sector and industry reasons. But I think this is also the original intention of all businesses.

3. Career success is inseparable from the right partners.

Only by choosing the right partner can you achieve the career you want.

Throughout the documentary, although Mr. Takahata Xun did not appear in many scenes, the words of Mr. Gong could not be separated from the influence of Mr. Takahata Xun on him when they worked together at that time. It's someone who has helped you identify yourself throughout your career.

Mr. Toshio Suzuki, producer. He was in charge of the entire film's production, from the control of the production cycle time, to the distribution promotion. He is a very meticulous and powerful person. It is said in the film that he can make judgments about the time, place, and details of meals for each meeting. You know, he is a very sharp and decisive person.

4. Career success is inseparable from persistence.

Mr. Hayao Miyazaki: Daily routine: 11:00 am to 9:00 pm to go to work, stop writing on time.

1. Persistence in his values: attach importance to the performance of etiquette in every move of the characters, which is also in line with the values ​​of his era.

In the film, he pauses for the bowing of the characters. After bowing, people can't stand up and straighten their waists completely, but slightly bend to maintain a state of respect.

After the characters say the required lines, they can't turn their heads and look sideways immediately, which will give people a feeling of disrespect.

2. Persistence in his idealism: He is not satisfied with the Zero fighter drawn by others.

He prefers the angle of the sky, Mr. Miyazaki, who likes airplanes, also likes to see his animation world from a high point, even the sky.

In the Valley of the Wind, jumping out from the heights of the mountains, the witch's delivery service, the little girl riding a broom to get a bird's-eye view of the city. Ponyo chases Sousuke from the sea with firm steps. Howl's moving castle, Howl led Sophie to fly to the sky to avoid danger, and took Sophie to walk in the air.

3. His constant attention to the real world:

· He will greet the children every day

· He will record changes in the economy during a major earthquake

· Record changes in your own city

· His own contradictions: the contradiction between himself who likes airplanes, his father is a wartime aircraft parts manufacturer who "made a fortune in war" and his anti-war thinking.

· He thinks about the purpose of life - what is happiness

A creator, he will not stop thinking, he will not stop observing, he will not stop insisting on what he loves, and he will not stop obsessing.

A true hero is someone who still loves life after seeing the essence of life

The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness quotes

  • Hayao Miyazaki: The notion that one's goal in life is to be happy, that your own happiness is the goal... I just don't buy it

  • Hayao Miyazaki: [Waves the camera over to him] Look over there. See that house with all the ivy on it? From that rooftop, what if you leapt onto the next rooftop, dashed over to that blue and green wall, jumped up and climbed up the pipe, ran across the roof and jumped to the next? You can, in animation. If you can walk the cable, you could see the other side. When you look from above, so many things reveal themselves to you. Maybe race along the concrete wall. Suddenly, there in your humdrum town is a magical movie. Isn't it fun to see things that way? Feels like you could go somewhere far beyond. Maybe you can.
