Chapter 227 The Results of the Second Week
Chu Yu's reply caught the attention of many fans who have been following his Weibo.
"Is it too late to run now? What does Teacher Shui Xin mean? Sure enough, will this work of five centimeters per second end with a tragedy of tears?"
"The above, don't be deceived, didn't you see the funny expression on the back of Teacher Shui Xin? Teacher Shui Xin likes to play this kind of prank, obviously it is a depressing work, he likes to say it is a healing work, and the real joy is to On the contrary, he likes to disguise it as a depressing work. Anyway, Mr. Shui Xin's words can be interpreted in reverse. How come there are so many depressing works! Mr. Shui Xin is not a pervert, I'm 90% sure Certainly, the third chapter is about the reunion of Mingli and Guishu, and then the two live a happy life without shame and shame."
"It does seem reasonable to hear what you said upstairs, but I always feel that this kind of plot handling is a bit different from the teacher Shui Xin I knew before!"
"People always change. After all, Teacher Shui Xin has also changed from being a genius manga boy to three uncles in the past. His views on love should also become more optimistic. Love stories, we look sad, doesn't Teacher Shui Xin feel uncomfortable when he creates them?"
"That's right, but it's a pity that this work, such a good production, such a beautiful soundtrack, but this work only has only three chapters? It's a bit reluctant to finish it!"
"Yeah! Before watching Second Five, I understood that a good work is like a frozen witch, Xiacheng, the production cost is high, please hire big-name voice actors, promote it vigorously, and then burn money. But Five Centimeters Per Second is really worth it. Subverting my cognition The investment in the new animation in January is only a medium investment, but when it comes to the performance of the picture and the sound of the music, its other works are simply smashed!"
"Maybe this is the difference between those who make animation with their hearts and those who just want to make money from animation! In an interview with Mr. Shui Xin and producer Huang Ming on the show, he said that Mr. Shui Xin spent the money for drawing comics over the past few years. All invested in the production of two short animations, 5 Centimeters Per Second and Voice of the Stars. Because all the money was invested in the production and there was no money to promote, the popularity of this work was so sluggish before the broadcast. Fortunately, the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. The quality of the work is there, except for the shortcoming of the length, it is definitely one of the best works in the youth love animation in recent years!"
"Why do you think people are so different from each other? Shui Xin-sensei is only twenty years old this year. It's Natsume's friend account again, and it's initial D, the previous Rurouni Kenshin Memories, I haven't heard of the flower name, Now it's 5cm per second and a sound of the stars that hasn't appeared. Even according to rumors, the music of the unheard flower name, 5cm per second and the voice of the stars is also provided by Mr. Shui Xin. Although the music that Mr. Shui Xin said was made by a friend, but For such a long time, his so-called friend has not revealed any news. Anyway, many people now think that Mr. Shui Xin's so-called friend should be himself. Looking at it this way, whether it is in the animation industry or comics In the world, Teacher Shui Xin has such a good performance, and he also stepped in in the music industry. Maybe, this is a genius!"
Chu Yu looked at the comments of the people on Weibo with interest.
Originally, he replied "It's too late to go now!" He wanted to give his fans a psychological shot.
He definitely didn't want his fans to really leave, and he didn't watch the final words of 5 Centimeters per Second, but he thought that the fans would be vigilant and would suffer less damage at that time.
After all, for all these years, he has been scolded by fans for being a big pit, a wicked man who cheats tears, and he is also a little embarrassed.
But he didn't expect that his good words to persuade him would be so misunderstood by his fans that even they were ready to watch the third episode of 5 Centimeters per Second with joy. Unexpected.
Forget it, let them go, it's not me who gets hurt anyway.
A few days later, the weekly situation of the second episode of five centimeters per second broadcast was released.
On xm.com, the most authoritative two-dimensional website of the Dragon Kingdom, among the audience ratings for the animation broadcast in January, the work of 5 Centimeters per Second is still the best.
On the contrary, before the broadcast, the so-called four major animations in January that were expected by everyone, the ratings were two weeks after the broadcast, and they all declined to varying degrees, ranging from 8.1 to 8.8.
For many animation fans of Long Kingdom, they don't superstitious about big productions, big-name seiyuu, and strong promotions when they watch animation.
After all, everyone is very busy. Who has the mind to watch a few hours of animation to judge whether your work is good or not? Is it a fairy grass? Many people choose animations to watch based on audience evaluations and ratings.
Therefore, the high rating and high reputation of the animation of five centimeters per second has attracted many fans of this kind of animation.
Therefore, the results of the first week of the second episode of 5 Centimeters Per Second were undoubtedly much higher than the first episode, reaching as much as 2.7 million. In addition to the first episode, the period of time has also increased. Lots of playback.
At a current speed of five centimeters per second, the total network playback of the two episodes has reached 6.2 million.
To be honest, let’s not say that the major animation companies in the outside world think it is outrageous. Even the direct staff of the second five animation production such as Huang Ming thinks it is outrageous.
So far, two weeks after the broadcast, the work with the highest total number of views is The Frozen Witch, with 6.4 million views for the two episodes, and an average of 3.2 million views for each episode. According to experience, if the follow-up plot of the witch does not die and the audience abandons the show, the average number of broadcasts of this episode will gradually increase within the next three months of this work being broadcast. Depending on the quality of the follow-up plot, industry insiders estimate that the final episode of The Frozen Witch will have an average playback volume of 4.5 million to 5 million.
But this is the result of the frozen witch spending a lot of money to produce and promote the animation. From now, when xm opens the website, the animation recommendation that pops up is this work, it can be seen that Dakai is very interested in this work. Definitely put a lot of money into it.
The production cost alone is basically 30 million, not including publicity and advertising costs.
And how can you get 5 centimeters per second to hit 6 million views in two weeks? Can't the capital and animation production team of Dakai Animation Company be stronger than the temporary animation team formed by your Shui Xin and Huang Ming?
The other three works aired in January, such as Xiacheng, Businessman from Another World, and Washboard, are still struggling with 5 million views. Your speed of 5 cm per second has surpassed these three silently. The department has made animations. How can you make the staff of other animation companies feel so bad?
After all, this broadcast data also means that Huang Ming and Chu Yu's 5 million investment has already paid back more than half of their original investment, and the remaining second five final episodes in the next two weeks and the broadcast of the Voice of the Stars will also be broadcast by this amount. In terms of data, basically two weeks later, that is, after January, the investment of the two people has been paid back, and in February and March, the income generated by the broadcast of these two works will be pure profit. In April, after the four-episode animation was broadcast three months later, and after the four-episode animation was broadcast in succession, the revenue would be very low. But in addition to the peripherals, the sale of playback rights, the sale of the collector's edition Blu-ray disc, etc., it is foreseeable that Chu Yu and Huang Ming should make a lot of money.
In the animation industry of Longguo, there are very few examples of this kind of animation investment that can be recovered by relying on pure online playback. Many animation works may not be able to recover even if they add the money from selling peripherals.
