Chapter 861

On September 5th, Spirited Away was released in various countries overseas. As a work that has swept the film industry in Longguo for so long, overseas Zhao Qinyin fans finally got to see this work in cinemas!

As expected by fans of Spirited Away in the Dragon Kingdom, Spirited Away has received very good reviews overseas, although foreign fans don't quite understand many elements!

But at least the plot is good or bad, and everyone can see what it wants to convey!

The scores on the first day of release in dozens of overseas countries are basically above 9.0. However, in terms of box office, the Omi area is average, while the neighboring countries in Asia are quite popular. Many countries Spirited Away are released on the day of release. Box office single-day champion!

But to be honest, in fact, the total sum is not much, and it is more than 100 million dragon national currency box office.

After all, overseas broadcasts have not gone through too much publicity. Dozens of countries around the world have simultaneously announced and released publicity. GT Animation Company does not have such strength now!

In addition, many countries have a small population, few theaters, and low ticket prices. The income level may not be able to support such a high proportion of moviegoers like Longguo.

The overseas market is not as good as the inland market, so Chu Yu naturally knew it long ago.

Tiger Walk is so popular in Longguo, with a total overseas box office of only 500 to 600 million yuan. In contrast, Spirited Away's total overseas box office was 170 million yuan on the first day, which has greatly exceeded the predictions of Longguo filmmakers.

And Spirited Away's follow-up development is also in line with its own quality. After several consecutive days of single-day box office conversion, it is more than 100 million yuan. Although it is not a phenomenal movie in many overseas countries, it is basically Can be regarded as excellent performance.

It's just that this situation made many employees of the animation production company a little sad.

A few days after Dragon Kingdom was released, Spirited Away's film schedule was basically over 30 to 40%, but when it was released abroad, the attendance rate of the work was very high, the support of fans, and the ratings were also top-notch among films released at the same time. But generally speaking, apart from a few surrounding countries that are influenced by the culture of the Dragon Kingdom, the movie theaters in many countries have a very low schedule for Spirited Away, basically less than 10%!

"So, if our company is strong enough, invests enough money in publicity, and has enough contacts to allow those national movie theaters to arrange films for Spirited Away, might Spirited Away be as popular as Dragon Kingdom abroad?"

In the afternoon, the setting sun shone into Chu Yu's office. Zhao Qinyin came to Chu Yu's room to fish every day. Su Yu was not in Tokyo, so she became bolder. Basically, if it was not necessary, all the work in the company would be sent to Chu Yu's office. Lane, and whenever I have free time, I will get into Chu Yu's chair.

But now, she looks a little depressed.

"There is no way, there is no company in Longguo that can release its works globally, otherwise Longguo movies would not have such a mediocre overseas box office!" Chu Yu shrugged.

After all, the film industry in this world does not have works produced by the Hollywood Six in the parallel world that can be released globally.

Not to mention that, like the Parallel World Avengers, it is a hot hit in any country, and at least 40 to 50% of the film is released. Isn't a certain work good and high in quality to get this kind of treatment? They are all fighting for the company's strength, connections, and industry influence!

To make that step, you need time, contacts, relationships, strength, cultural penetration, and the strength of the country you belong to.

Otherwise, it is a very simple example. Knowing that a certain country’s movies are of good quality, if you put its works in, you are here to loot your own movie market. Why do you want to let them in?

In this world, the Dragon Kingdom is very powerful, and so is the United States. There is no phenomenon of cultural dumping. Therefore, no matter whether it is the United States, Europe, or the Dragon Kingdom, their cultural works basically only have a market in their own country, and go overseas. In other countries, the treatment may not be any better? Even if the quality of your work is high, it is normal for you to be squeezed out by your native colleagues! But this kind of thing is mutual. If movies from other countries come to Longguo, if they are not really popular and popular, many theaters will also suppress their schedules and give priority to movies released in Longguo!

"But after all, it is the No. 1 movie in Dragon Country's box office list, and the theaters in those countries won't go too far. After all, they go too far with this kind of thing, and Dragon Country will reciprocate. So this is pretty good!" Chu Yu smiled and said.

"Overseas is considered to have opened a movie viewing channel. Although many countries have tight film schedules, it still gives your fans in those regions a chance to watch movies. As for the overseas box office, I also hope that it will be high, but this is the situation after all." Chu Yu said calmly.

"Are you very relaxed? You are open-minded." Zhao Qinyin stared at Chu Yu.

"It's not about being open-minded or not, but the fact is that we are just some creators, and we can only make the best development of our works in the existing environment, instead of being a dragon and forcibly changing the environment and ecology. Perhaps the situation will change when the company grows stronger and has enough influence to become famous overseas, but at least it is not a movie that Spirited Away is very powerful, but it is not that powerful!" Chu Yu said.

"Indeed." Zhao Qinyin was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Although Chu Yu is very powerful, it is not realistic to change these patterns with a movie.

"But what about the overseas market, we can't decide now. But at least the Longguo animation market. We must at least be top-notch." Chu Yu said.

"Dragon Kingdom. Peak?" Zhao Qinyin repeated with a confused expression.

"It is. Tianxing! It is now the top big company in the animation industry of Longguo, and we will replace it at some point!" Chu Yu added.

"This is also the goal I set after thinking about it for a few days after you persuaded me to expand the company and recruit more talents!"

"Exceed. Tianxing?"

"That's right. First of all, I have a grudge against it, and secondly, I need to do this for my personal career development!" Chu Yu said.

After all, if you want to maximize the value of a series of system works in the next few decades of your life, it is impossible to talk about it if you don't control a company of this size.

Just like the Marvel universe, adapting live-action movies from anime, and then integrating animation and games of the Pokémon series

However, Chu Yu probably doesn’t know how long it will take to do those things. Now, the focus should be on making animations. Slam Dunk will soon enter the plot of the island-wide contest, and then the work of Slam Dunk will also It will end in a handsome way in front of Longguo animation fans.

After Spirited Away is released overseas, it will wait for its billions of domestic and foreign revenues to be settled, and then the company will also start to formalize. It is impossible for the company to operate without Chu Yu!

When Chu Yu has a work, the whole company can mobilize all the forces to serve him. If Chu Yu does nothing, the relevant departments must be able to cooperate, or change, or buy, or self-made, from planning to production and then Until the work is broadcast. Maintain the normal operation of the company!

Chu Yu imagined it this way, but Zhao Qinyin just thought that the company should be bigger and stronger, but she never thought about making it as big and strong as Tianxing.

After all, since she was a child, she has seen many works of Tianxing Company, and knows its status in the animation industry of Longguo. Now that Chu Yu has proposed such a goal, she is really a little confused.

"Don't be too surprised, I guess the speed is very fast." Chu Yu saw Zhao Qinyin's silence for a long time, and explained a little.

After all, a work of the level of Slam Dunk Dragon Ball can support the prosperity of a large comic periodical of the level of Weekly Jump for more than ten years, and what Chu Yu can produce is the top works of a world and an era

If you really set your goal and catch up, it is inevitable to surpass Tianxing, the difference is just how long it will take!

The conversation with Zhao Qinyin stopped at the right time, and if it was too much, it turned from looking forward to bragging!

However, Zhao Qinyin seemed to be a little affected by Chu Yu's words. Sitting alone on a chair, she sometimes showed excited eyes and sometimes excited expressions. At this time, there was only a girl's innocent behavior on her beautiful face, which made Chu Yu fantasize

People who like anime are people who like fantasy. Zhao Qinyin's daydream state is generally not seen by others, unless that person is her current boyfriend, her favorite Chu Yu.

September 9th was the fifth day of Spirited Away's overseas release. Although Zhao Qinyin felt a little disappointed with the overseas results compared to the popularity of Spirited Away in China, in fact, in many overseas countries, the low-ranking films and With almost zero publicity, the total box office of nearly 900 million in five days is already the best achievement for Longguo films to go abroad

Fans of Spirited Away advertised and praised this work on various networks

In fact, except for Zhao Qinyin, Su Yu, and Huang Ming who are too confident in Chu Yu, basically few Longguo fans would think that Spirited Away has poor overseas performance, and that the film works released abroad are not as good as domestic ones, right? It's normal, which country is not like this? The No. 1 box office in the United States, in the overseas market that year, it was only converted to a total box office of more than one billion Chinese dollars.

In comparison, Spirited Away is the No. 1 work in the Dragon Country box office, and it achieved this result in the first five days. It is estimated that the total overseas box office is more than enough to surpass that work!

While the media is overwhelmingly reporting on Spirited Away's "excellent record" at the overseas box office, the Longguo film industry has also frequently spread news that capital is interested in the theme of animated films, and even clearly established a project to produce it, which will be released next year. There are currently three known animation film projects worth hundreds of millions!

Spirited Away's total box office of Dragon Kingdom is 8.4 billion, and according to the trend of overseas ticket warehouses, the news that the global box office is likely to exceed 10 billion has directly stimulated many investors in Dragon Kingdom's film industry and animation industry. , the best thing is to follow suit!

Many animation works with names such as "My Girlfriend's Name is Chihiro!", "White Dragon and the Girl!", and "Bathroom Adventures" have also begun to be produced. On the Internet, what Chihiro and Bailong, Spirited Away After ten years of reunion, Chihiro has two children and other original fanfiction novels have begun to be written, and the popularity has soared.

On the Internet, fans are urging Zhao Qinyin to release new works and add more slam dunks every day. In the company, new employees go through the entry procedures every day, and the number of employees is increasing.

As for Chu Yu, Huang Ming had already asked Huang Ming to find a cost-effective building through his friends in Tokyo, and planned to buy it as the company's new office building. After all, the manpower is getting more and more crowded!

And under such circumstances, the plot of Slam Dunk finally entered the plot of the whole island contest.

After the game against Lingnan, there were a total of more than ten episodes last week as a transition, telling about Coach Anzai's past, Rukawa Kaede's American basketball dream, Xiangbei team players becoming campus stars, and team members conducting special training for the final .

Although these plots are not boring, and they are not watery, they are not the plots of the island competition that everyone is looking forward to.

Of course, in the original Slam Dunk animation, because of the conflict between the manga author Takehiko Inoue and Shueisha, the company behind the serialized comics, due to the end of the Slam Dunk work, the animation of the national competition plot was also aborted, becoming a parallel world. The regret in the hearts of slam dunk fans.

But the animation does not produce a follow-up plot, and always has to give an ending, so the animation production team created an original plot without authorization, combining players such as Yuzhu, Mato, and Sendo, and played a game against Shonhoku, so that the slam dunk ended in this game. It can be regarded as a thought for fans!

However, in the real manga plot, there is no real connecting plot at all in this game. Sakuragi Hanamichi went to the basketball store and wanted to continue to buy buns at the price, like the basketball store owner buying limited-edition basketball shoes. After that, he went to participate in the national competition. Contest.

Of course, Chu Yu naturally deleted that wonderful game directly, but after buying basketball shoes from Yingmuhuadao, he took the tram to the place where the island-wide competition was held and started to pick it up.

So, on the day of September 16th, after watching the three episodes of Slam Dunk, I thought this week was another special training episode in Xiangbei. I was about to feel lost and clicked on the last episode of Slam Dunk animation updated this week.

The turning point happened suddenly. Akagi Haruko and Mito Yohei discussed about Sakuragi Hanamichi in the empty basketball court!

Sakuragi has to grow, Sakuragi's persistence, Sakuragi's love for basketball, fans can see that Sakuragi already has a very important position in Haruko's eyes.

On the other hand, the reason why the basketball court is empty is that the entire Xiangbei team has already taken the train to the place where the island-wide competition will be held.

This plot, let the slam dunk fans fry the pot directly!

"Why? In the last episode, Sakuragi was still buying basketball shoes, so the island-wide competition started in this episode?"

"That's why you didn't watch the animation carefully. Isn't there a narration at the end of the last episode? Hanamichi Sakuragi bought basketball shoes and got on the train for the All-island competition!"

"Happiness came too suddenly. I fmd waited for three weeks. It's been three weeks since the match against Lingnan. Is there a new match for Slam Dunk?"

"Teacher Zhao Qinyin, I love you, you understand the feelings of our fans too well!"

"Hurry up and introduce the opponents of the whole island competition, and see which unlucky ghost meets the Xiangbei Five Tigers!"

"People block and kill people, Buddhas block and kill Buddhas!"

"Hey, although it's normal for slam dunk fans to brag about Shohoku, don't forget, according to the setting, Hainan, which ranks No. Already!"

"I don't care. Anyway, the sports promotion animation, the protagonist team is strong when they meet the strong. Let me put it this way, the Xiangbei team in the island competition will avenge Hainan like they avenged Lingnan, and then defeat the strong enemy to win the championship!"

"Although I think your idea is too routine, in fact, I think so too!"

Fans immediately increased the number of bullet screens.

And in the animation, a lot of information was disclosed at once. On the train, the Xiangbei team studied the opponents of the island competition

The first match, Xiangbei team vs Fengyu

The winners of the two teams will face Sanno Industries directly

The latter was the champion team of last year's All-Island Tournament and the champion of the All-Island Tournament the year before!

Bo1, single elimination system!

Therefore, if Xiangbei loses the first game, they will go home in the first round, and if they win the first game, they will directly meet last year's champion team, Sanno Gonggao!

It's just a simple game arrangement, two pictures, and a dignified sentence from captain Akagi.

Let the fans of Slam Dunk who are watching the animation at this moment get nervous all of a sudden! The enthusiasm for finally entering the whole island competition because of the plot, suddenly cooled down by half!

What is this anyway? What do you think? They are all legendary hell groupings!
