Chapter 203 Proud (Second)
"Lixiang, come with me to visit Mr. Yoda Hidetoshi."
"OK."
Qiu Ting Lixiang is an employee of "Dimension Japan" and a subordinate of Li Zerui.
She is also very excited now.
Earlier, that is, two weeks ago, she and her boss went to talk about the broadcasting of "The Sword of Amber", and the object was Yida Hidetoshi, who was the person in charge of the TV station, they were going to visit next.
The bald uncle in his forties really impressed Li Xiang - she hated his arrogant attitude very much.
She still remembers the most outrageous sentence that guy said:
"If I am willing to play the animations made by you Chinese, it is already a great gift from heaven. How dare you ask for so much?"
It really makes the fragrance in the autumn garden to die for.
It's unreasonable for the arrogant native to regard the neighbor next door as a poor and white man in the last century.
Especially when Lixiang has seen the work herself, she really feels sorry for the rare and excellent animation "Amber Sword".
However, she is just an ordinary employee, and there are not many things she can do.
And today, it's finally time to feel proud.
I followed the boss to the TV station by car.
The last time they came to visit, they waited for half an hour before seeing Yoda Hidetoshi. Lixiang still remembered that she came here wearing a pair of high heels that day, and her feet hurt like hell while waiting.
And the treatment this time is really different from the last time.
They were quickly brought into the living room, served with two glasses of water and a comfortable soft sofa.
Without keeping them waiting for a long time, Yoshida Hidetoshi opened the door and walked in before half a glass of water was finished, with a smile all over his face.
"Mr. Li, I have kept you waiting."
This attitude was extremely enthusiastic, as if he was not alone with him last time.
Li Zerui didn't show any face either, he wouldn't be dissatisfied because he was slighted last time - even if he was, he wouldn't show it on his face.
He's here to discuss business, not to fight.
"Mr. Yitian, I think you should also know my reason for coming."
"Clearly, if nothing unexpected happens, do you want to increase the advertising investment?"
"Yes, including offline advertising."
"To tell you the truth, we have actually been doing work in this area for a long time. We have always been very optimistic about the potential of the work "Amber Sword", but for various reasons, those prepared resources The promotion didn’t come in time, it won’t happen now, the relevant promotion work has already started, so you don’t have to worry too much…”
"I can rest assured that."
...
Li Zerui was not at all surprised by the change in attitude of the bald devil.
It's all too normal.
When the premiere results of "Sword of Amber" came out, Li Zerui was not afraid of anything.
The audience rating of 5.9 surpassed all the local new shows in the season. Even some popular and evergreen veterans, such as "One Piece" and the like, failed to suppress "Amber Sword".
With the support of such achievements, Li Zerui became more confident.
Of course, he was also very angry about Yoda Hidetoshi's arrogant attitude before.
However, he will not mess up business because of this personal emotion.
Taking advantage of the hot grades, it is serious to step up the need for resources.
After leaving, on the one hand, he asked the domestic headquarters for approval of the budget. On the other hand, he also stepped up contact with various network broadcasters, hoping to synchronize it on the network and strengthen the promotion of this new show.
The speed at which the 'Dimension Entertainment' headquarters approved the budget was very fast.
At the same time, the matter of promotion has also been resolved very well.
For "The Sword of Amber", which is a work from a strange country, even though it seems to be of high quality, local businesses are still reluctant to invest too much resources in promotion without hesitation.
It's not that people don't have knowledge, it's just that...prejudice is not so easy to get rid of.
However, when the real results were presented in front of everyone, this matter was completely different.
Capital is born for profit.
After "The Sword of Amber" showed its excellent potential, the broadcasters instinctively put in more effort.
In addition, the quality of this work is really excellent.
So, when it was broadcast in the second week in Japan, the results of "Sword of Amber" exploded.
The original 5.9 is already a very high ratings score. And the average ratings of this second episode broke through 8 in one fell swoop, and even reached 9.4 at the peak!
Undoubtedly, for the local Japanese, a top-level phenomenon-level work was produced.
If the situation continues like this, the annual show that year might be "The Sword of Amber".
In addition to these, they have another very important job: stepping up the preparation of the "Amber Sword" CD.
The animation market in Japan is quite different from that in China. Disc income is a large part.
Selling CDs is a business model for the core group, earning money from the core audience.
Discs are quite expensive. A set of discs, which may only contain two episodes, will cost seven to eight thousand yen. Relatively speaking, the profits it brings will also be very large.
For many domestically produced animation works in Japan, the sale of discs is simply the key to success.
And disc sales, usually over 10,000 is a huge watershed. Anything that can exceed ten thousand is a good work.
Even the previously popular animation work, "Cells at Work", did not sell more than 10,000 during the season, and it stopped at more than 7,000 but less than 8,000.
For Li Zerui, he doesn't expect that much. His goal, five thousand! Five thousand is enough!
The release date of the disc has not yet come, and he is still waiting patiently.
However, the same other work can also start to unfold.
For example, a large number of peripheral copyright authorizations, and even mobile game copyright authorizations limited to Japan, are quite a fortune.
Before that, Ye Jiayi set KPI (Performance Indicator) for him, hoping that he could reap tens of millions of profits for "Amber Sword" in the Japanese market, which refers to RMB.
To be honest, when he first received this task, he felt very bitter.
Although the quality of "Sword of Amber" is good, Japan is a big animation country. Their own animation industry is well-developed. There are many works every year, and there are many powerful manufacturers. The competition pressure is very high.
But now it seems that this goal is not difficult to achieve.
Even, Li Zerui has the ambition to do better!

The second watch arrives.
It is hard to save the manuscript, and I have to work hard to code, and I have to write it now.
There will be more if you say more, at least one chapter later, and try to come up with two chapters.
