Chapter 258 Inspiration

Although the picture quality of Natsume's Book of Friends is somewhat unsatisfactory, some of the original classic background music provided by Chu Yu has undoubtedly been highly recognized by fans of Dragon Kingdom animation. In addition, Natsume's Book of Friends is not a combat animation, so the picture quality is poor , and it doesn't affect the viewing experience very much.

In the animation broadcast in April, a group of cute and rotten, campus love, and Long Aotian animation from another world, a small and fresh animation such as Natsume Friends Account, whose pre-music is up to standard, is by no means soaring. Good luck.

Because of this. Since the launch of Natsume's Friendship Book, due to the influence of anime fans, the popularity of Natsume's Friendship Book has suddenly exploded in the water journals, and it has jumped to the same level as Initial D and Dream World. Behind the dream world, two works are eyeing.

In addition, the sales of the comic books of the Natsume Friends Book on the market have also skyrocketed.

Chu Yu can only sigh about this phenomenon. Sure enough, animation is no wonder that so many cartoonists are so eager to animate their works.

At the same time, after the end of April, according to the industry rules, the two works of 5 Centimeters Per Second and The Voice of the Stars have been broadcast for three months, and they have also been sold at a reduced price on the website according to the regulations of the Dragon Kingdom. At the same time, there are two The statistics of the average play volume of the works are over.

Of course, the meaning of the end is not to say that there is no real statistics, but in the animation industry of Longguo, the standard for measuring the performance of a work is the broadcast sales within three months after the broadcast. People in the industry talk about a certain work. The average sales volume of the episode is only talking about the sales volume before the price reduction, and it is not considered so much in the future. Otherwise, which of those ancient animation works is not the existence of millions of episodes on average.

The final network playback volume of 5 cm per second was 38.56 million in three episodes, and the voice of the stars was 12.11 million.

Therefore, simply calculating the online broadcast revenue of these two works, after Chu Yu and Huang Ming split, the money in his hand was more than 19 million, while Huang Ming's share was more than 7 million.

Of course, this is pre-tax income.

The money also reached the two men's accounts in early May.

On that day, both Huang Ming and Chu Yu felt an unreal feeling. Chu Yu was like this. Within a few months, plus the sales of Natsume's friend's bill book, two animation works, and the remuneration, he would have cash on hand. nearly thirty million.

And Huang Ming, with hundreds of thousands of dollars and Chu Yu messing around here, directly and ultimately the income has increased eight or nine times, and the salary of ten years of work has been paid out, plus the family background left by his parents and years of hard work. Savings have also stepped into the ranks of people who have put aside real estate and have net assets reaching tens of millions.

As soon as he counted it, people were immediately stunned.

According to Huang Ming's life plan, it will take at least ten years for him to reach this stage and develop well. It will take at least ten years for him to rise two levels in Jiuxing and reach the level of vice president.

And this is just the income from online broadcasting, and there are also various peripheral income, as well as the sale of overseas broadcasting copyrights. According to common sense, I am afraid that this income will be at least 60 to 70% of the income of online broadcasting. above.

In other words, Chu Yu could see with the naked eye that the sound of the stars and the speed of five centimeters per second still had at least tens of millions of benefits that he had not received.

Coupled with the upcoming release of the initial D comic book in June, and the Natsume animation broadcast, the income of the Natsume book whose sales have skyrocketed again may not take long. Chu Yu's current 30 million cash can almost double.

Even though Chu Yu knew for a long time that the animation industry is very profitable as long as his works explode, he was still a little dizzy.

"Brother, you have suddenly become a very rich person from the shyness of last year!" Huang Ming looked at Chu Yu and smiled cheerfully.

"You are so rich, aren't you going to invest in something or manage your money?"

"Forget it, I don't understand that very well." Chu Yu took a deep breath.

"I don't have the energy to do those things, I just save it in the bank to pay the interest. Anyway, the interest for one year is enough for my daily expenses for two years." Chu Yu no longer wanted to count this thing.

After all, he wants to be a salted fish. With this money, he can live for the rest of his life even if he does not work and consider inflation.

At this time, Chu Yu thought of Tang Xin, and somewhat understood why Tang Xin always wanted to be a salted fish.

"Then aren't you going to buy a house or something?" Huang Ming thought for a while.

"Last year, all the money was used to make animations, so it doesn't matter if you are hard and simple, but now you, if you continue to live in your rental house, you will be too wronged!"

"I live there mainly because it's close to the school, and I don't care about other things. As for buying a house in Modu, I'll wait until I graduate." Chu Yu said.

After Chu Yu and Huang Ming chatted for a while, they went home.

The next day, Huang Ming gathered all the people from the animation studio to have a dinner to celebrate. In the end, Huang Ming and Chu Yu each contributed a large sum of money to everyone. After the last dinner, they returned to their lives. , after all, the relationship between them is not a company and an employee, but a group of like-minded friends who have gathered temporarily. When things are done, the temporary separation is a matter of course.

In the end, Huang Ming still spoke to Chu Yu and Chu Yu.

"Brother, if you have similar animation production plans in the future, call me anytime!"

"I know!" Chu Yu nodded.

It's a pity that all the works of the system need to be exchanged, otherwise the system will open all works to Chu Yu for free, then he must immediately cooperate with Huang Ming, and then recruit troops to start an animation company.

But now, if he goes to open a company, one work is finished, and the other work has not been redeemed, what will happen to the staff expenses during this period?

So, like Miaowu, it's okay to set up a studio and do some small productions, but Chu Yu still thinks it's not feasible for the time being to open a company.

But if the next reward given to him by the system draws a suitable work, then Chu Yu is naturally willing to continue to cooperate with Huang Ming, rather than just being a screenwriter and providing scripts for big animation companies to produce.

After all, he didn't know the name of the flower at the beginning. With so much income, Chu Yu earned more than two million yuan, and the two works of Second Five and the Voice of the Stars brought him the income, except for the principal investment of five million yuan. more than 20 million.

Although he is not a person who regards money as his life, he is not a fool who thinks he has too much money.

Anyway, the two most important factors in making animation, money, he has. People, Huang Ming can solve it, that's enough.

"Maybe one day I will have inspiration"

Chu Yu thought for a while and said to Huang Ming.

"That day may not be long."

Huang Ming glanced at Chu Yu, smiled, and said nothing.

He did have confidence in Chu Yu, who said it wouldn't be long. Then it shouldn't be too long.

At night, the two stood in front of the window, the cold wind was blowing, and they were silent for a while.

But suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in Chu Yu's mind.

"Congratulations to the host, five centimeters per second won the most popular animation in the spring of 2020, and the host will be awarded a chance to draw a grade A lottery."

At that moment, Chu Yu was stunned.

It's been almost a year, and finally the system is bubbling up again.

A-level reward?

It's exactly the same as the reward that I have never heard of before when Huaming won the first popularity in spring. It seems that the system also has its own criteria for issuing rewards. The first popularity in spring is A-level.

Judging from the current set average of 12.8 million at five centimeters per second, it doesn't seem impossible.

It's just a pity that the Voice of the Stars, although the results are so good, but it was pressed to the second place by the speed of five centimeters per second, and there was no reward.

And now that the rewards have been distributed in early May, the animations broadcast in March haven't been finished yet? It seems that the system has also evaluated it and found that there are no competitors, so did it directly issue rewards?

Chu Yu didn't waste any more time. Although Huang Ming was right beside him, Huang Ming would not bother him if he was in a daze for a while.

Chu Yu, who entered the system space, decisively used this lottery opportunity directly.

"System, use the A-level lottery chance!"

Huang Ming, who was standing in front of the window with Chu Yu, was immersed in his own world for more than ten minutes, only to realize that he and Chu Yu had not spoken for a long time.

However, he saw that Chu Yu's eyes were a little dull, and he was probably in a daze, so he did not disturb Chu Yu.

It is no wonder that young people will definitely have all kinds of confusion after they become famous.

For example, do you want to be an ordinary salted fish after being lost, or a thousand-year-old salted fish?

Just now, Huang Ming was also confused, but the well-informed Huang Ming also saw a lot of examples of wealthy people who spent their money recklessly and ended up destitute.

But wait a minute, I have to advise Chu Yu not to be too inflated. Although he is a young man, he should not fall into depravity. After all, people will be infected with bad habits in a spare time, and then indulge in playing mahjong and the like, it will not be good.

But just as Huang Ming thought about it, Chu Yu's expression returned to clarity.

He turned to look at Huang Ming.

"Brother Huang, can I tell you something?"

"Huh? What's the matter?" Huang Ming asked.

"As I said before, I didn't say that the day we will work together again may not be too long, as long as I get inspiration and have ideas for new works."

"Well, what's the matter? What are you doing here?" Huang Ming wondered.

Chu Yu looked at Huang Ming, blinked, and then said.

"I just got inspired."

I always feel that my pace is so slow, but I can't control myself. Directly and deliberately speed up the rhythm, if you think it is too fast, please forgive me!
