Chapter 246 Traffic Pillar
"Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" and "Heavenly Palace" were released at the same time.
And the publicity of the two before the release was "tit-for-tat".
There was quite a bit of gunpowder.
In marketing, there are sayings of taking advantage of the situation and creating momentum.
Obviously, these two works are taking advantage of each other while there is fierce competition.
No matter which movie is popular.
It will cause the popularity of the other movie.
Because everyone wants to see, these two works are so fiercely competing, which one is better or worse.
So in the end, "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" and "Heavenly Palace" are both beneficiaries, and their box office is steadily rising.
Chasing each other.
Sometimes "Heavenly Palace" is ahead.
Sometimes "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" will surpass it.
It is not clear who is better for the time being.
"Personally, I think "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" is better, and it completely fits my imagination of oriental fantasy."
"The Shanhe Shejitu and Zhidian Jiangshanbi really shocked me."
"Nezha's style is more relaxed, and it looks really hilarious..."
"But I think the plot of "Heavenly Palace" is better. The lines of "Nezha" always feel rough. To be honest, the part where Ao Bing and Nezha "fight the thunder tribulation together" made me feel embarrassed..."
"A little bit of flaws is acceptable."
"The picture quality, plot, characters, lines, and even the soundtrack of "Heavenly Palace" are all a level ahead of "Nezha". Don't spray, I'm telling the truth. I don't mean to belittle "Nezha", but I think there is still a lot of room for improvement."
"The overall level of "Heavenly Palace" is definitely higher... That's Wu Jun's work! A professional in animated films and a benchmark in the industry. "Nezha" is just the first animated film of Starlight Pictures, so it's normal to have a gap."
Fans hold different opinions.
Although there are disputes.
But everyone is still harmonious.
There was no mutual tearing or slander.
As time went by, the performance of "Heavenly Palace" was indeed slightly better.
But its director Wu Jun also said in public: "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes to the World gave me a lot of inspiration. It made me see a completely different world of oriental mythology. The imagination of China comes from their 5,000 years of cultural accumulation. I hope to learn more about Chinese culture. Putting aside the technical aspects, I like this movie very much."
Wu Jun's words also set off a lot of public opinion.
You should know that Wu Jun is a very picky person.
He is very particular about his works.
But it is such a person who said that he likes this movie very much, and because of this movie, he wants to know more about Chinese culture.
How can it not make people excited?
In addition, many Yamato people also became interested in Chinese history and mythology because of this movie.
During that period, the number of broadcasts of related types of movies and TV series also increased.
Related books are selling very well.
Although the box office performance of "Nezha" has gradually been left behind by "Heavenly Palace", its contribution to cultural output is surprisingly large.
Duoyu said, "It's an honor to lose."
"Boss, will we make animated films next?"
Duoyu obviously tasted the sweetness.
He also began to care less about the competition between Nezha and Tiangong, and began to think about the next film.
As long as each one is better than the last.
One day, he will reach the level of Wu Jun.
He is very confident in Starlight Pictures.
He is very confident in his team and Su Chen.
After hearing this question, Su Chen also fell into deep thought. Yes, what to shoot next?
"Nezha: The Devil Child Comes to the World" is considered to be one of the top animated films in China on Earth.
If you want to surpass...
Well.
It may not be surpassing.
The focus is on cultural output and creating a Chinese mythology universe.
After shooting "Dragon", you can still play with snakes...
"White Snake: Origin"!
Su Chen made a decision quickly.
He spent a day writing the script and handed it to Duoyu.
Duoyu was dumbfounded, "Boss, you write a script a day?"
"No." Su Chen shook his head.
"That week? Did you have an idea before?" Duoyu asked.
Su Chen smiled and shook his head, "I can write several in a day."
Duoyu: "!!!!!!"
Damn!!!
This turn.
Waiting here.
Writing several in a day...
You are the most Versailles boss I have ever seen.
How do you let other screenwriters live?
Monster!!
Soon Duoyu began to prepare for "White Snake: Origin".
And Su Chen also received an invitation from Qingke Comics.
"Teacher Li Xianyu, do you have time to draw a new comic?" the editor asked.
"Doraemon" is still being drawn slowly.
But facing the strong offensive of Yamato Comics, Qingke Comics can no longer rely solely on "Doraemon" to support itself.
Need to find a new breakthrough.
New works.
Qingke Comics' recent performance has been severely impacted.
Must find a way to overcome the difficulties.
Su Chen is thinking.
But when the other party heard that Su Chen didn't answer, he immediately said: "Teacher Li Xianyu, as long as you are willing to draw, we can increase your share ratio and additionally subsidize your related creation expenses."
"We have a brand new creation incentive plan."
Then the other party sent the creation incentive.
Su Chen took a quick look.
30% of sales.
70% for him!
It's a full 20% more than the original 50%-50%.
Qingke Comics is really expensive.
And there are extra subsidies.
Then draw it.
"Yes." Su Chen agreed.
He was immersed in comic creation in the next few days.
He went to look at the recently popular Yamato comics.
The largest comic publishing company in Yamato is called "Manhuishe".
After entering the Chinese market, Manhuishe launched the Chinese version. After half a year of promotion, the number of users has now exceeded that of Qingke Comics.
This is why Qingke Comics is so anxious.
If it is allowed to develop like this.
Qingke Comics will be killed.
In Manhuishe, the most popular comics now are the "warrior adventure" type, also known as light comics.
Such as "My Brother is Obviously Weak but Brave", "Attack on Slime"...
But now the most popular are two long series.
"Uncharted Waters" and "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja".
The comic "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja" is particularly popular.
It ranks first on the bestseller list.
It remains stable.
It mainly tells the story of a ninja who is trying to die. His Ninja Scroll is called "One Thousand and One Deaths". Every time he dies, his strength will increase greatly.
It's a bit like a Chinese cool novel.
Su Chen read it for a while,
and it really makes people unable to stop.
The painting style is also very passionate.
"Ninja." Su Chen made a decision quickly.
He wants to draw "Naruto".
On the one hand, he wants to take advantage of the popularity of "One Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja", and on the other hand, this type of comics does have a market.
With this decision, Su Chen quickly started to create.
After drawing the first draft,
he said hello to the editor, and he published the work directly.
"Fuck! Did Li Xianyu secretly release a new comic?"
"Naruto! It's also about ninjas?"
"Ahhh! I've been cursing that "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja" hasn't been updated enough! I can't find any similar ninja works. Now it's good. I can check out "Naruto". I wonder what the content is like."
"So Li Xianyu followed the trend of "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja"?"
"That's interesting."
At one time, many people flocked to read "Naruto".
Watanabe is a heavy fan of comics.
He is very famous in the comic reader circle.
In Yamato, he is called the "King of Comics", of course not in terms of creation, but in terms of reading.
He will read almost all comics.
If it's good, he will catch up to the end.
If it's not good, he will abandon it after reading the beginning.
Recently, he finished reading "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja". The snail's update speed is simply crazy.
Most of the time, it's updated every two days.
It's so slow.
And that stupid author Junyi didn't even make an excuse for not drawing comics, and directly told the readers, "I don't want to draw these days! Don't wait."
"I've been staying up late recently, I need to sleep during the day, and I'll update next week."
"I just want to lie down, wait a little longer."
"There are always 365 days a year when I don't want to draw comics!"
Look at it.
This bastard called Junyi has no professionalism at all.
Apart from this, Watanabe really can't find other comics, so he is very short of comics... boring.
So he often browses the Chinese Qingke Comics website recently.
He found that Chinese comics are quite interesting.
First of all, the style of painting is very different from Yamato's.
It has a very oriental fantasy flavor.
He started to get into oriental fantasy from "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes to the World", and then he liked it.
It's just that the volume of Chinese comics is not large.
There are not many high-quality comics.
He finished the works he wanted to read in a few days.
He fell into the comic drought again.
Just when he was bored, Watanabe suddenly received a push:
"Li Xianyu, whom you follow, has released a new work "Naruto""
"Doraemon's author has released a new work?" Watanabe was very excited.
He likes Doraemon very much.
He also likes the theme of ninja very much.
So he couldn't wait to click in.
"Naruto" begins with the nine-tailed demon fox.
Under the cold moonlight, the nine-tailed demon fox sways its exaggerated fox tail.
"In the past, there was a demon fox that was causing trouble. The demon fox had nine tails. When the fox moved its tail, the mountains collapsed and the tsunami occurred. The people were deeply troubled, so they gathered ninjas..."
Then the Konoha ninjas fought against the nine-tailed demon fox.
Gamabunta also appeared at the beginning.
Confronted the nine-tailed demon fox.
"Only one ninja tried his best to seal it, and the ninja died because of it. This ninja was called: the fourth generation Hokage"
Then the story smoothly entered the birth of Naruto.
When Su Chen first watched Naruto, he didn't notice that Kishimoto had already laid the groundwork for the subsequent huge plot from the first episode.
I have to say.
Awesome.
The first episode mainly introduces the characters.
Introducing the background and the characters.
Iruka, Naruto, Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke...
In the early stage, Naruto was still very cute. As the last one and the funny one, he just supported the atmosphere.
The exam tested the transformation technique.
Our classmate Naruto directly used a set of "color technique" to make Iruka bleed from the nose.
At first, I thought this technique was just for making a joke.
But later I found that this was all to prepare for the appearance of the lustful fairy.
Planning and layout!
Very awesome.
Of course, in this episode, Naruto's dream of becoming a Hokage is also revealed.
But he is just a last-place finisher.
This contrast between reality and ideal makes the story very tense and attractive.
His clone technique directly creates a "toad Naruto", and his grades are failing!
He cannot graduate from the Ninja School and become a new Genin.
Naruto fell into loneliness and loss...
At this time, Naruto was instigated to steal the forbidden scroll. In order to become stronger, Naruto really went, and then learned the shadow clone technique.
Next is the super double color technique!!!
The plot is not dragged out at all.
Everything that should be explained is explained very clearly.
Watanabe finished reading it quickly.
Whether it is the painting style, ninjutsu, or the story, it very much meets his expectations.
So he spontaneously sent it to an interest group.
"Brothers, I found a Chinese comic! "Naruto"! It's better than "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja."
"Fuck, even Watanabe said it's a good comic, I want to read it too. Please link it!"
"Always believe in Master Watanabe."
After his promotion, "Naruto" began to become popular in a small circle, and then spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred...
Soon this comic became known.
This matter also reached the ears of Junichi, the author of "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja".
"A copycat work?" He was very curious.
So he went to see it.
"This setting..." Junichi was shocked when he saw the huge Nine-Tailed Fox and Gamabunta.
This "large" painting style.
And the setting of ninjutsu are all very novel.
It is something that "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja" cannot do.
And from a professional point of view, he saw at a glance the grandness of the plot of "Naruto".
The fourth generation Hokage, the nine-tailed demon fox...
These are all obvious foreshadowing settings.
"This comic... is going to be a hit!!" Suddenly he felt a strong sense of crisis.
I thought it was a follow-up work.
But now I realize that
the innovation of others has exceeded his imagination.
"It has a strong Chinese style..." he muttered quietly.
Not bad!
"Naruto" has borrowed a lot from Chinese culture.
The nine-tailed demon fox, the five elements, the curse... the demon ape summoned by the third generation Hokage Sarutobi has the image of Sun Wukong.
This is also one of the reasons why Su Chen chose to draw this comic first.
Although it is a foreign work.
But it has strong Chinese cultural elements.
Many Chinese and Yamato readers were also amazed after reading the content of the first episode.
"Oh my god! This world seems magical."
"Chinese cultural elements, and the name of the characters is Yamato?? This feeling of cultural integration... is very special."
"Nine-tailed demon fox!! Is this the nine-tailed demon fox from Qingqiu Mountain?"
"Don't talk! I like that toad."
"According to this style of painting, I feel that in the later stage, it will be the kind that can destroy a star field with a stomp of the foot..."
"I like it! Update more. Can't wait."
"Compared with it, "The Thousand and One Deaths of Ninja" feels a bit petty..."
"Yeah, "Naruto" is still awesome."
As more and more people read it.
The reputation is getting better and better.
Various rewards are flying all over the sky.
It deserves to be the first on the new comic list.
It is also the best-selling list, and it was taken in an instant!
It became popular overnight.
At the same time,
Qingke Comics also welcomed a large number of new registered users.
The entire Qingke Comics is so slow!
"One hundred thousand!! Today's newly registered users have exceeded one hundred thousand!! "
"According to data analysis, all of them are attracted by "Naruto"."
"Oh my god!! This is our traffic pillar."
