my animation era

Chapter 1095 Xiao Wanbao is actually a gangster?

It has to be Brother Cake!
Gu Miao didn't really approve of the other brothers, including the top four guys on campus, but he was the only one who called him "brother" willingly.

Not only because of Patty’s charisma, but also because he is the same on the outside.

I have had a crush on Okja since I was a child, but I have always been shy when it comes to things related to Okja. I want to confess but always fail due to various accidents.

This time in the theatrical version of "Okja's Love Story", she successfully expressed her feelings to Okja and received a response from her.

Everyone says that Tamako is well-shaped and cute, but who knows how much effort Oji Moko has put into pursuing the girl he loves?
"It's right for them to get together. I think even if it's a fan work, it won't easily break up this pair of childhood sweethearts."

Huang Kun accompanied Gu Miao to watch the gun version of "Yu Zi Love Story" and couldn't help but sigh.

The curse of Qingmei being defeated by the sky is broken!

At least in "Tamako Love Story", the childhood sweetheart achieved a complete victory, the sweetness was beyond the limit, and everyone was envious.

"What do you envy?"

Gu Miao gave Huang Kun a strange look: "Do you also have a childhood sweetheart whom you have a crush on for a long time and can't get enough of?"

"Yes, I have!"

"I really liked her at that time. The day I learned that she had found a boyfriend, I shed a lot of little pearls..."

At this age, there is nothing to be ashamed of. Huang Kun admitted frankly that he did have such a childhood sweetheart.

It's a pity that I missed it.

It’s not a cliche drama like Qingmei losing to Tiansheng. He is not the male protagonist of Two-dimensional Asasi, so how could he have such a blessing?

It's just that her confession was rejected, and then she watched her beloved fall into the arms of someone else.

"Then you are quite miserable."

Gu Miao smiled heartlessly and said: "But this is normal, reality is not two-dimensional. Most childhood sweethearts can only be friends in the end, and some cannot even be friends."

Childhood sweethearts sounds great.

But in reality, how many pairs of childhood sweethearts finally achieve success?

Whether it’s because we’re too familiar with each other and it’s hard to start with, or maybe we grew up and had our own lives, and gradually lost contact...

Anyway, Gu Miao rarely sees cases where childhood sweethearts become successful friends in a true sense. Most of the childhood sweethearts end up having their own loves and can only become good friends.

So this is the meaning of the existence of "Okja Love Story", or the beautiful yearning that the audience places on it!
It is precisely because cases of childhood sweethearts becoming successful friends, both in two-dimensional and real life, are so rare that Gu Miao supported the project and production of the film.

"The box office will definitely not be too high."

First making a judgment on "Yu Zi Love Story", Gu Miao immediately added: "But this must be a well-reputed work of Wanbao Neon Division and one of the masterpieces mentioned!"

The box office won't be too high, mainly due to the subject matter, a youth romantic comedy. The content doesn't have any elements of passionate fantasy, so it's difficult to stimulate a high box office.

what?
Take "Your Name" as an example?

This is not appropriate!Your name has the fantasy element of "swapping bodies" in it, and there is also a passionate and touching scene of the town being destroyed by a meteorite.

On the other hand, "Tamako Love Story" does not have that kind of fantasy element, and the plot does not have astonishing plot points such as "meteors falling from the sky". It only tells stories about short-lived parents and ignorant youth.

This kind of bland campus youth love is suitable for one person to enjoy slowly at home and immerse oneself in the story, but it is not suitable for a group of people to watch in a movie theater.

That's why Gu Miao concluded that the box office of the movie "Tamako Love Story" will not be too high, maybe only [-] to [-] million yen.

Compared with the investment, this box office can only barely recover the cost.

However, from the beginning, Kyoani Studio did not focus on the box office, and Gu Miao did not expect to make money from "Tamako Love Story".

The goal of this video is word of mouth!

Create a good reputation so that the audience can remember Kyoani Studio and Wanbao Animation. Every time Wanbao Neon Division is mentioned, they will think of this well-received film, which is considered a great success.

As for making money, that is the task of "Dragon Ball: World No. [-]".

Speaking of Dragon Ball The Movie, even though Huang Kun hasn't paid much attention to it, in this Internet age, it's hard for him not to know.

As soon as you turn on your mobile phone and computer, you can always find news about Dragon Ball The Movie in various news software, video software, and even social platforms and forum communities.

"The heat is really ridiculous!"

Huang Kun sighed.

If the attention and popularity of "Okja Love Story" is 10, then the Dragon Ball The Movie is 100 or even higher.

Totally incomparable...

"Okja Love Story" was released at Neon Cinema, but there were almost no discussion posts or comments on the domestic Internet.

On the contrary, the Dragon Ball Theatrical version, which has not yet been announced, seems to be transformed into a variety of "experience books" and is being discussed crazily by netizens.

"There's nothing surprising about this, it's a Dragon Ball after all!"

Gu Miao said disapprovingly: "You don't know what level of animation IP Dragon Ball is, right? The top ten animation IPs in the world were selected not long ago. Are they making trouble with you?"

"Top ten animation IPs in the world?"

"Yes! It was done by a financial media. It is said that some professional appraisers were hired to evaluate the commercial value of the popular animation IPs in the mainstream, and then ranked them..."

Gu Miao also just saw it not long ago.

Not to mention, although this ranking list was created by a group of laymen who have little connection with the animation industry, it is quite professional.

In particular, their evaluation of the value of each anime IP surprised Gu Miao.

With "Dragon Ball" at the top of the list, this financial media estimated its commercial value to be around US$20 billion.

How did you get this value?

Two billion US dollars sounds very abstract and unrealistic, but only Gu Miao himself knows that if he were to assess the value of Longzhu, it would be almost the same amount.

What?Dragon Balls are more than that. They are obviously worth more money?

This makes no sense!
Anyway, whoever spends 20 billion US dollars now, Gu Miao will definitely sell the "Dragon Ball" series to him without blinking an eye, without any regrets.

Even if he knew that the entire Dragon Ball series was worth more than this amount of money and could create more profits, it would be useless.

This 20 billion represents cash!

You said that this IP will make a lot of money in the future, but how long is this "future"?ten years?Or 20 years?

In front of us, between the 20 billion that can be taken away with a nod and the 20 billion to 30 billion that will take more than 40 to [-] years to be taken away, any fool knows to choose the former. Do you really think that the cost of time is not a cost?
Wanbao accounts for half of the top ten animation IPs in the world selected by this financial media.

134579 are all Wanbao’s IP!Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Superman, Tom and Jerry, and Spongebob are all among them. Counting Dragon Ball, that’s a full six places.

It is no wonder that such a controversial list was questioned by the entire Internet as soon as it was released. This financial media was also stigmatized by netizens as a "brainless boaster."

In fact, they were quite unjust.

They have nothing to do with Wanbao. This list is just from the perspective of a financial analyst to simply evaluate which animation IPs are more valuable.

As a result, because Wanbao has many works on the list, netizens feel that this list is not fair enough. After all, if we really look at this list, then wouldn’t Wanbao Animation be the animation company with the highest IP value in the world?

"It really is!"

Faced with doubts from netizens, the editor-in-chief of the financial media said frankly: "If you only look at the past ten years, Wanbao is undoubtedly the animation company with the highest IP value."

"Most of the animation IPs we rank are animation works from the past ten years with relatively high commercial value. Is it strange that there are so many Wanbao on the list?"

It’s hard to say whether it was the first few decades or the next few decades.

But in the past ten years, if Wanbao is not worthy of dominating the list, then which other company is worthy of dominating the list?

……

The controversy caused by the so-called "Ranking of the Top Ten Animation IP Values ​​in the World" is still hotly debated across the Internet.

After briefly chatting about the matter, Huang Kun also revealed his purpose.

The theme of the second season of the animation "Wandering the Animation World" is "competition", which roughly covers animation works such as "Yu-Gi-Oh!", "Prince of Tennis", "Go Boy", "Rapid Crossing the Line" and "Four Wheel Brothers" .

According to the production standards of the first season, which is 12 episodes in one dungeon world, the length of the second season will be 60 episodes!
This is too long...

Therefore, Huang Kun believes that the second season should be "downsized", slightly reducing the length of certain dungeon worlds, and controlling the total number of episodes to less than 52.

But he wasn't sure about Mr. Gu's attitude.

If one of these dungeon worlds was Mr. Gu's favorite, but he cut it out and made Mr. Gu unhappy, wouldn't that be a bad thing?

So he came here specifically to ask for advice.

"Leisuden can't be cut. This series itself is already cool enough. We're all hoping to become popular through "Wandering the Animated World"!"

"The Prince of Tennis cannot delete too much. After all, the theme of the second season is competition, and the world of The Prince of Tennis really fits the theme..."

Gu Miao analyzed and analyzed, and suddenly found that among these dungeon worlds, the only one that was easier to delete was "Yu-Gi-Oh!"

no way!
Yu-Gi-Oh! is very popular right now. Even if it doesn't appear in "Wandering the Animation World", there is no need to worry about its popularity.

On the other hand, several other animations need the traffic popularity brought by "Wandering the Animation World", and Yu-Gi-Oh has many sequels, so there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

"OK then!"

Huang Kun also agrees with this analysis. It is true that "Yu-Gi-Oh!" is now a new game every year and is very popular. It does not need "Wandering Animation World" to help attract traffic and become popular.

It would be appropriate to add some more when the popularity stops.

of course!

This is not the main reason.

There was another reason that Gu Miao didn't say, but he knew that Huang Kun would definitely understand, and that was that the world of "Yu-Gi-Oh!" still had a bit of a fantasy fairy tale after all.

The Pharaoh and the Three Illusory Gods...

Dark games and thousand-year artifacts!
This kind of power system appears in the competition-themed second season. To be honest, it feels weird.

Everyone is playing tennis, Go, four-wheel drive vehicles and remote control cars. There are no big threats in the world we live in. Why are you the only one with gods, demons and monsters?
"Then just a brief mention..."

Huang Kun mused: "This season, Xiao Wanbao travels to the world of "Yu-Gi-Oh!" mainly to experience the fun of playing cards, and will not be deeply involved in the plot."

"When the world of Yu-Gi-Oh is changed in the next season, let Xiao Wanbao go back to save it and be deeply involved in the plot."

"this is okay!"

Gu Miao nodded.

Although the world of "Yu-Gi-Oh!" doesn't seem to be very dangerous, it's just a group of kids playing cards.

But if you delve deeper into the plot, you will find that in the first two seasons of Duel Kingdom and Duel City, a bad card game can really kill someone.

Dark games are no joke. Bekas can even capture the soul of Game Grandpa. Who knows what other unknown methods are hidden there?

Xiao Wanbao really doesn't have a good means of self-defense at the moment. Red Wolf's infinite frying pan is just a joke. You don't expect it to be able to resist soul-level attacks, right?
"Little Wanbao will first go to the Leisuden World, meet Lingfeng Lingyun who has not yet stepped onto the court, help them grow up, and eventually win the championship! Then the Prince of Tennis World, she will move into Longma's house as Longma's distant cousin... "

"Huh? Cousin Ryoma?"

As soon as Huang Kun was halfway through speaking, Gu Miao was stunned.

When Xiao Wanbao travels through the animation world, isn’t he all a gangster?Why was she given an identity that didn't appear in the original novel during this time travel?
"no way!"

Huang Kun explained with a wry smile: "Pleasant goats and bears are everywhere in the world. It doesn't matter whether they are gangsters or not. No one will check anyway, and the audience won't mind this. But in the modern urban context, the problem of gangsters like Xiao Wanbao is much more serious. ”

In Qingqing Grassland and Gou Xiong Ridge, who cares whether you are a gangster or not?Mr. Baobao doesn’t check the household registration!

But in the modern urban world of Lei Sudeng, Prince of Tennis, and Four Drivers Brothers, if Xiao Wanbao, a seven-and-a-half-year-old girl, is a gangster without identity, the consequences...

It is based on this consideration that in the second season of "Wandering in the Animated World", after discussing with the writing team, Huang Kun decided to use the identity of "animation elf" to cover Xiao Wanbao's time travel and give her a local identity.

In the Lei Suden world, she is Ling Feng Lingyun's neighbor.In the Prince of Tennis world, she is Ryoma's distant cousin.In the world of Four Drivers Brothers, she is an orphan adopted by Dr. Tsuchiya.In the youth world of Go, she is a little beggar who follows the old beggar Lin Xincheng to beg for food...

Only with the right identity can you enter the plot better.

Otherwise, how could Xiao Wanbao, the gangster, come into contact with the plot characters and correct the deviated plot?

I was afraid that as soon as I showed up, I would be caught by a surveillance camera and taken to the police station as a kidnapped child.

Laugh to death!

I heard that you are the protagonist of Infinite Stream?
Feel sorry!Without proof of identity, you will be treated as a gangster in modern society!

"Having arranged an identity for Xiao Wanbao, will he be pranked by the audience later?" Gu Miao suddenly thought.

Standing in front of you now is Cousin Longma, Senior Sister Jiang Liuer, Bald Qiang’s adopted daughter, Gray Wolf’s matchmaker, the white moonlight shared by brothers Fengyun and Liehao...

Cough!

It seems like some strange identity has appeared?
