Chapter 836
Chu Yu generally doesn't like to make things too complicated, to calculate the return on investment, risk and other things, he makes these works, the first purpose is to let these works spread in this world as much as possible, as long as the purpose can Achievement, the benefits of those things are second.
Although gt animation company does not have the right to speak in the animation industry of Longguo, but Chu Yu relied on the top animation companies of several eras in the parallel world to quickly earn a huge amount of money. There are quite a few production companies, but there are not many people in charge of the company, the chairman, who are richer than Chu Yu, and there may not be any investors who are more willing than Chu Yu and don't care about the benefits!
This is also the reason why Tianxing feels a headache in the face of such shameless competition from Spirited Away! After all, a barefoot person like Chu Yu is not afraid of wearing shoes. People have to consider the returns brought to the company's employees and shareholders by the rate of return, but Chu Yu doesn't consider these.
So when gt animation company passed him, and then through Huang Ming and Nihonjima, the inland cinema dealers, and distributors proposed that they were going to engage in a ticket supplement strategy, and the amount of funds was as high as 100 million.
This kind of news cannot be concealed. In the first step, Huang Ming and Su Bao discussed cooperation with the theaters and major ticketing software apps, and then they left. The news spread in the film industry, and then spread out bit by bit!
For this kind of news, the production companies behind competitors such as Gun Soul, Luo, and Shujing are naturally extremely sensitive, and they received the news immediately.
Then, all three families got big heads!
What is this?
Invest 450 million and then add another 100 million to do this for an animated film? Do you think you can make money?
The primary purpose of producing a work must be to make a profit. If the box office of 1.6 billion returns to the line, so what if you achieve it? You have worked so hard for so long just to get your money back?
Or, would Zhao Qinyin and the boss behind GT Animation think that Spirited Away's final box office could far exceed 1.6 billion, more than 2 billion, or even 3 billion, so they did this? If this is the case, it can only be said that the other party is too arrogant!
Although the box office champion of Longguo movie is as high as seven or eight billion, but that kind of work is basically phenomenal, and only one is released in a few years. The box office is only two or three billion, this kind of situation can be regarded as profitable! But can Spirited Away reach this level? How can an animated film have such a high box office?
funny!
The pressure on Jiang Qi and his subordinates was overwhelming instantly, and he was helpless when he encountered such a stupid opponent!
Inexplicably biting their stars, and then doing this kind of behavior before the animation is released.
Although Spirited Away's film schedule is only 14% under the pressure of the three companies, it can be expected that if the other party really has 100 million tickets for the first few days of its release, the attendance rate of this film will definitely be extremely high!
But here comes the problem. What should we do in the face of the other party's behavior?
This issue is not only considered by Jiang Qi, the director of Bookland, but also by the producers of Gun Soul and Luo!
Do you want to follow?
In this already very difficult market competition situation, continue to invest more, and then engage in a ticket compensation battle with Spirited Away!
This is a tough decision! If you follow, if the work can't compete with other movies after its release, the money may be wasted, but if you don't follow, your own work will be passive!
Why are these fools doing this, the producers of the two live-action movies are very angry!
As for the companies behind the other dozen or so movies released in one day with the four movies, they are now in a state of despair. They originally thought that the two movies of Gun Soul and Fall would eat meat, and they would eat soup. From the current situation, the four Movies occupy more than 70% of the film schedule, and then a dozen of them divide the remaining 20% or so. Can this soup be drunk?
That night, there were quite a few directors in the film industry, and the company sighed. Many people directly condemned GT Animation Production Company and Tianxing. Those who are engaged in animation should engage in animation. What kind of animated film? A good summer file makes the competition as intense as the Spring Festival file.
Of course, neither Chuyu nor Tianxing had any reaction to this kind of condemnation, and they didn't bother to pay attention!
However, after Spirited Away launched a comprehensive publicity this week, many people's attention was slightly taken away from Slam Dunk, but in fact, Slam Dunk's performance growth this week is also extremely outrageous.
For Zhao Qinyin's fans, the news about Spirited Away during this period really made their hearts itch, but after all, it will be released in a month's time. Today, Slam Dunk is officially updated to He Xiangyang's In the game!
As it was approaching noon, a large group of people quickly logged into their accounts on Xinman.com, and the comment area of Slam Dunk was instantly active several times!
After all, these fans have been hung up for a week!
Unlike most sports and competitive animations, although the Xiangbei team in Slam Dunk is very strong, the plot does not give the protagonist any cheats at all. From Xiangyang, Hainan, to Lingnan, the three games were extremely thrilling. Of course, In another word, it is wonderful!
Until the protagonist team wins, the hearts of the audience are tugging. Even the Xiangyang team, many slam dunk fans in the parallel world feel that if the captain of this team did not underestimate the enemy at the beginning and looked down on Xiangbei, the coach and captain at the beginning If Fujima plays in person, I am afraid that the high school league in Xiangbei will stop here!
At the beginning, Sakuragi was allowed to start the game. The players in the Xiangyang team recognized Mitsui Shou directly, saying that he was completely unstoppable in junior high school, but this game will allow him to score less than five points. In the heart-to-heart one-on-one contest, the opponent hit a backward jumper, which directly showed the faces of a group of fans watching the animation!
"Is it so beautiful?"
"Damn it, I think it looks better than all the previous games. This animation is really good, as long as it doesn't describe the daily life of Sakuragi Hanadao, but all the game plots are great!"
"Indeed, although the hero is also very handsome, but basically there is no suspense in the basketball game, and the slam dunk is different. Although we know that the protagonist will win, but the process will be very anxious to watch!"
"The Xiangbei Five Tigers were suppressed by the enemy for the first time. In the previous few games, the score was more than 100 to 50 or 60. Sure enough, it is really different to abuse food and meet a strong team!"
"This fake move is amazing. To be honest, I didn't notice it at all when I watched the league games. These dangling moves in the game are all fake moves!"
In the thirty-seventh chapter, Xiangyang's ace came out in a good shape, which left a deep impression on the slam dunk fans, but he alone controlled the rhythm of the audience, giving Xiangbei a wave of 11:0!
Not to mention that the protagonist team became nervous at this start, the audience also became nervous.
After all, according to the rules, you can't lose a game, and if you lose, you will be eliminated!
Then in the thirty-eighth chapter, the internal strife in Xiangbei specialties came out. Akagi Takenori told Mitsui Kotobuki not to shoot a risky three-pointer, and Mitsui Kotoshi asked him to suppress Hanakata first. Besides, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede Stadium can’t see each other pleasing to the eye
Then, the turning point of this game was when Rukawa Kaede was surrounded by four people from Xiangyang, and he forcibly made a successful shot!
Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Rukawa Kaede to have so many fans in the parallel world!
"handsome!"
Many fans are still replaying Rukawa Kaede's shot that twisted the two of them in the air.
It definitely satisfies the fantasies of a large group of adolescents about being handsome in basketball!
The funniest thing is that Rukawa Kaede taunted the group of four people, making them angry all of a sudden!
Then Xiangbei's counterattack began
Akagi had two hot pots in a row, Rukawa Kaede's dunk, and Sakuragi's jump shot missed, Rukawa Kaede took off and made up.
Whether it's the tense situation in the game or the bickering between the protagonist's five-member team.
The rhythm and plot of the slam dunk animation this week made it impossible for these fans to find anything wrong!
“Unexpectedly good looking!”
"I was already looking forward to this week's plot, but actually it looks better than I imagined!"
"It's really hard to imagine that this is a sports animation created by a girl. Except for fans of the initial plot, the portrayal of the plot of this game is really wonderful. This match with Xiangyang is already the third episode of the plot, but it is really a minute There is no urine spot, and the whole process is very attractive!"
"The main reason is that the characters of the protagonist team and the enemy are deeply portrayed and have a sense of immersion. They are really different from those facial makeup characters in the basketball style! And they are very funny. When you are passionate, you will cry, and when you are funny, you will laugh. stomachache!"
"Indeed, the characters in it are very distinctive! Damn it, I just discovered this horror story without bragging. I have already watched three episodes of this week's update. According to the progress, the match with Xiangyang will be endless for four episodes! "
"Damn it, it's true that the first quarter hasn't even ended yet!"
"I just noticed that."
On the barrage of Chapter 39, there was originally a group of fans crazily touting the progress of slam dunk, but it changed completely afterward!
Then came the 40th episode, the game between Xiangbei and Xiangyang was completely in a state of anxiety. At this time, if anyone has a video, they will find that the number of bullet screens in Slam Dunk is almost twice that of last night's basketball style. Those diving parties were all pulled out by the plot to participate in the discussion!
Then in the second half of this episode, Yingmu Huadao finally ended his game state of salted fish, and the rebounding king Yinggi Huadao went online
That's all for this week's update, the plot of the four episodes. Only let the first half of this game end!
When you hear the ed song sounding! The fans were heartbroken.
"It's outrageous, it's over like this!"
"Why does this animation only update four episodes a week! It's not good to have more episodes!"
"This week, let's finish updating the plot of fighting Xiangyang, and it's fine if you don't update it next week! It's going to hang people's appetite for a week!"
"I spent an hour and a half watching the 20-minute game in the animation. I want to say that the plot is watery, but in fact it's too damn good!"
"I'll see you guys next week. I wanted to take a break at noon and watch slam dunks to relax, but now I feel so uncomfortable!"
"Oh, I shouldn't have entered the pit for the second time. Before Mitsui Shou's fighting scene was persuaded to quit, and then because of Mitsui Shou's return to the team, I should hold back for a few weeks, or even a month or two. When the time comes It's so cool to watch the sixty and seventy episodes together, now it's too uncomfortable, this"
"Oh, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to slam dunk for the second time! I hope the plot will end the game with Xiangyang next week."
"I don't want such a good-looking game to end because it's too uncomfortable to tantalize my appetite every week!"
Zhao Yongbai looked away from the fans' comments on Slam Dunk and let out a long breath.
It's so uncomfortable!
Seeing that Slam Dunk is getting more and more popular week by week, with more and more fans, there is nothing I can do!
Qianqian's high spirits before the release of Basket Wind, and his disdain for slam dunk in the mid-term, but now, in just a few weeks, the reviews of the two works have completely reversed!
Before this week's update, Slam Dunk's score was only 9.2, which was exactly the same as the basketball style. Now, after these fans have watched the episodes of this week, Slam Dunk's score has risen to 9.3!
I was very anxious in my heart, remembering how much I boasted before, but now... I can't find a way to beat the slam dunk!
Indeed, slam dunk is much better than basket style in handling the game plot! And in terms of character portrayal, it is also much stronger!
Of course, Lanfeng is following the current pace of development, and the results are not bad, but obviously, the creative ambition of this animation must not stop there!
Since the Mitsui Shou story, the popularity of slam dunk has grown rapidly, and the popularity of slam dunk has slowed down rapidly!
To put it bluntly, the animation market has its limits, and this is especially true for the fans of sports and competitive animation. Many fans do not have so much time and can only follow one animation out of the two. Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that it is a later stage The powerful slam dunk has the upper hand in public opinion!
Now that the new animation in April is being discussed on the Internet, the basket style has become a background board, and it is mostly used by fans to set off how good the plot of Slam Dunk has been in the past few weeks!
If the situation continues like this, it's not good!
But, there is no way. This is the most painful!
I know the standard of my work, as always, it is very stable, so if the plot behind Slam Dunk is always so exciting and tense, Zhao Yongbai is also very clear that it will be a matter of time before the basket wind is overtaken by Slam Dunk!
There was a sigh in Zhao Yongbai's office!
A few years ago when Shui Xin was on the rise, he laughed with his friends that these young people were just catching up with the good times. Now when he really met Zhao Qinyin, a genius who is known as the same level as Shui Xin, he suddenly felt that. If these two people had been born more than ten or twenty years earlier, wouldn't there be nothing like them in the animation industry of Longguo now?
Of course, this doesn't mean he's convinced. He doesn't like Zhao Qinyin's change to GT Animation Company at all, and he doesn't want to lose. He even thought before that if the slam dunk hits the street, he must make fun of it when he goes on the show. other side!
And now. Zhao Yong was browsing the news, and happened to see an edited video about Zhao Qinyin on a variety show in Japan!
"What do you think about the competition for the strongest new animation in April between Slam Dunk and Basket Wind, when the popularity of Slam Dunk is lagging behind in the early stage?"
"After seeing Lan Feng's work, I felt that I had already won!"
After only reading two sentences of the other party's interview, when Zhao Qinyin said this with a calm expression, Zhao Yongbai didn't read it, and quickly clicked on the website, after all, it was just the other party's ridicule and humiliation!
Damn, I don't believe that I will really lose to this kind of person.
After drinking the tea in the cup in one gulp, Zhao Yongbai walked into the Lanfeng animation production team with a gloomy expression!
Japan Island, gt animation company, Chu Yu looked at the gifts received from slam dunk fans all over the country at the front desk. Among them, basketball is the most!
I don't know which fan initiated the event, so I put a basketball on my photo and sent it here, and attached a touching thousand-word testimonial from the slam dunk, and then Zhao Qinyin took some time After sending him a letter back, the guy posted the matter on the Internet, and he received hundreds of basketball gifts this week!
"You're so popular now! I'm afraid you're even more popular than when I was in Shanghai!" In the car, Chu Yu said casually while driving.
"What? Are you a little disappointed?" Zhao Qinyin made a rare joke about Chu Yu!
"How is it possible? I'm not interested in being a celebrity, but I just want to remind you that there may be more such situations in the future! After all." Chu Yu paused.
After all, judging from the popularity trend of slam dunk in the parallel world, the match with Xiangyang is very important, and Mitsui Shou has a passionate performance in next week's plot.
It is estimated that there will be hundreds of fan letters a day!
"I said, do you still have the mood to pay attention to these things now? Because of your willfulness, the workload of our company employees has increased a lot! Many people in the Spirited Away animation production team are now nervous, for fear that the work will lose money when it is released. I was fired by you!" Su Yu said wearily beside him.
"The probability of such a situation happening should be quite low. On the contrary, Spirited Away's performance after its release may exceed your imagination!" Chu Yu said.
"Beyond our imagination?" Su Zhi curled his lips.
"I hope it won't be because there are too many competitors, the fans will be dispersed in the end, and then the box office will be dismal. It will become our first loss-making work after joining the company! That is beyond our imagination!" Su He half-jokingly said.
"Then your myth of invincibility will be shattered!"
"Undefeated Myth? What?" Chu Yu asked suspiciously.
"It's the myth that all your works have never lost money!" Su Yu said.
"Since you became famous in Demon City, basically all works have a rate of return of more than 300%, and there is no record of loss. The former should be impossible, after all, Spirited Away wants to have a rate of return of 300% , the box office must be at least over three billion, and then the peripherals are sold well, and the copyright is sold well. For the latter, no one can say in this competitive environment!"
"Really? There are such records!" Chu Yu blinked and said!
"Then maybe, the two conditions of this record can continue to be maintained!"
"You have a good idea! The box office champion of the Spring Festival, more than a dozen first-line obviously joined, publicized half a year in advance, and the production cycle of several years may not dare to say that it will definitely have a box office of 3 billion, just like the box office champion of the Spring Festival last year, The quality of the movies during the schedule is not as good as other years, so the champion is only 2.9 billion at the box office. Although our total investment is not bad, but animation movies are still not the mainstream, just Chu Yu, you dare to think about it, you are worthy of it!" Su Ting teased Said.
It's not that she underestimates Chu Yu, the reason why she feels uneasy is because the box office record of Longguo animation film is only 17.8 billion, and the best box office of 100 million is Spirited Away, which is 100 million at the box office. 600 million, if you want to make more money, you may have to break the record!
No matter how powerful Chu Yu is, it would be a big deal to break the record of his predecessors. An animated movie with a box office of 3 billion. It is estimated that the probability of appearing is lower than that of a literary movie with a box office of 3 billion. Practitioners in the animation industry dare not think about it!
Everyone thought that this kind of record would be broken, but they never thought it would be broken so ridiculously!
"Anyway, it's only a month, and it will pass soon, and we will know when the time comes!" Chu Yu said calmly.
There was no speech in the car
The co-pilot Su Yu peeked at Chu Yu's face, and Zhao Qinyin in the back seat also observed Chu Yu through the front mirror
Become a master without talking?
Although these words are quite stinky, but when he said them, he really felt so handsome and convincing!
The corners of the mouths of the two raised slightly!
Forget it, don't hit him anymore, and comfort him when things backfire!
The car was driving all the way under the setting sun, and the afterglow after get off work shone warmly on my face!
