my animation era

A baby kiss is impossible, and it is impossible to arrange a baby kiss in this life.

This is ridiculous!
Gu Miao didn't need to use Xiao Sensen's future marriage to achieve any purpose. It was impossible for him to agree to the marriage.

And to say the least, even if it is a marriage, it still depends on whether it is qualified!
What level do you belong to, are you worthy of marriage?

When it comes to her son's future, Gu Miao will at most interfere in his career, preferring to let him take over.

But in terms of marriage, it is impossible for him to interfere. Even if Xiao Sensen finds him a very unreliable daughter-in-law, he will not say anything.

After all, the road is chosen by oneself.

He respects Xiao Sensen's opinion. If Xiao Sensen really likes the girl, even if he objects to it, he will not use his parents' authority to beat the mandarin duck.

"If you really don't like your daughter-in-law, at worst we can just go our separate ways!"

Gu Miao said to her daughter-in-law: "Don't get involved in this matter. My son will find a partner in the future. What he likes is the most important. Whether we like her or not is not important."

"I see."

Coco nodded, then rolled her eyes and said, "But isn't it too early for you to say this? How old is our son?"

"It's getting late, it's getting late!"

"Isn't this a plan for a rainy day? We should show our attitude in advance so that we don't get confused when we get old and make our son turn against us." Gu Miao chuckled.

Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren!
Gu Miao has always had this attitude. He just wants Xiao Sensen to take over. As for him, after he takes over, it is not his business.

Maybe at that time, Gu Miao will take Coco to travel around the world, or maybe he will find a place with a nice environment to live in the countryside, grow flowers and plants, and go fishing in his free time...

"You haven't reached 40 yet, and you're already thinking about your life after retirement?" Coco joked.

"What's wrong with being 40?"

"Who stipulates that you can't retire at the age of 40? Let me tell you, Xiao Sensen is not old yet, otherwise I would want to retire now." Gu Miao shook her head.

Of course, this is a joke.

Gu Miao wants to retire, but she won't be able to retire completely before she turns 50.After all, at this time, Xiao Sensen had just entered elementary school.

At least we have to wait until he graduates from college, right?

There are others waiting!
After the funeral of Mr. Xiong, Gu Miao came to the newly established Wanbao Pictures and asked about the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D".

The results were not surprising.

Havoc in Heaven is indeed the pinnacle of Chinese animation many years ago. Even after so long, there are still people who remember this work and are willing to pay for the 3D remake.

It broke [-] million at the premiere and [-] million the next day!

In just two days, the box office reached an extremely terrifying 4.16 million yuan, ranking first in the same period.

This has also greatly boosted the confidence of Wanbao Pictures. After all, the box office performance is so good, it is not difficult to recover costs and make a lot of money.

The only problem is that.

The bloodiest Spring Festival is coming soon, and the movie may face the impact of a large wave of new films. Attendance and film schedules may then decline.

"fine!"

Gu Miao smiled and comforted: "I've watched all the new movies released during the Spring Festival this year. They basically don't pose a threat. Havoc in Heaven is still invincible."

What's more, it's only the end of the year.

There are still two months until the Spring Festival, so you may not be able to get the extension key for the 3D remake of Upheaval in Heaven.Without the extension key, there would be no new films scheduled for the Spring Festival.

So their worries are unnecessary.

Instead of worrying about the new Spring Festival movies in the future, it is better to think about how to get the extension key!
……

The 3D remake of Upheaval in Heaven is different from the hand-drawn original version many years ago.

This is also a conclusion that many movie fans came to after going to watch it.

Although they both tell the story of Sun Wukong causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace, one is hand-drawn animation, one is computer animation, one is 2D and the other is 3D. The difference in look and feel is very obvious.

This also presents a problem.

That is, many people are criticizing the studio, saying that they are not enterprising and made the remake of Upheaval like this.

It's so disappointing!
Everyone has high expectations for the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D", and it is produced by American Film Studio. Everyone feels that this movie is as good as the original version.

After looking at the results, we can see that it is not inferior to the original version. Is this thing really made by the American Film Studio?
Not that it doesn’t look good!
It must be good-looking. After all, so much time and money have been spent, and I don’t dare to release it for release if I don’t have the skills.

But the biggest embarrassment of this movie is that it has a predecessor, and the predecessor is very classic.After watching the remake, the audience will inevitably compare it with the original version.

It's okay not to compare. In this comparison, the 3D remake is indeed a bit less interesting.

Many people don't understand.

They only know that during that difficult economic period, Meiying Studio was able to produce such a classic "Havoc in Heaven" just by hand-painting.

Why is it that now, with no shortage of money and extremely powerful computer CG technology, we can no longer create classics?
Shouldn't each generation become stronger than the previous generation?Why is it that after so many years at Meiying Factory, our strength has declined?
"I really wronged the American Film Studio."

"First of all, the animation was made by Wanbao. Meiying Studio only provided help and was not the main force in production."

Gu Miao shook her head and sighed: "Secondly, the American Film Studio has a serious shortage of talent. Even if you have money, you can't make classic animations."

"What you said makes sense, but... the audience doesn't know!"

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "They only know that the American Film Studio was able to produce such a classic "Havoc in Heaven" even though it was so difficult a few decades ago. Why has its level dropped now?"

This is called a difference in perspective.

The audience does not know the current situation of American Film Studio. In their eyes, American Film Studio is still the Asian animation mecca where big bosses gather.

The remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D" is very good and worthy of the ticket price. It is also one of the more worth-watching animated movies in recent years.

But this is a riot in heaven!
Decades ago, American Film Studio could tighten their belts and make classic masterpieces like "Havoc in Heaven" even if they didn't have money or people, so why can't they do it now?
This is also the reason why many viewers do not have high evaluations of the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D".

If you want to talk about the movie itself, everyone thinks it's okay and there's nothing major wrong with it. I recommend you to watch it. It's definitely worth the price of admission.

But if American Film Studio has been holding back such a thing for so many years, many people are dissatisfied and feel that their production capabilities have deteriorated.

It is very contradictory.

While everyone is criticizing the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D", they are also giving this movie to friends and family.

Don't ask, asking means split personality.

You see, I recommend it, and you can criticize it after watching it. The movie itself is good, but the mistake is that this is not a new film released by American Film Studio after many years.

If you say this is Wanbao's new movie, then no one will complain so much. After all, everyone knows what Gu Sanshui's strength is, and it's already good to have it done like this.

But this movie was produced by American Film Studio!

……

American Film Studio was scolded miserably.But they didn't care, after all, there were more voices praising them than scolding them.

Especially for the older generation, at this age they can still watch the 3D remake of "Havoc in Heaven" and they will have no regrets in life.

Perhaps the only dissatisfaction of American Film Studio is that some people say that the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D" is Wanbao's movie, not American Film Studio's movie.

"It's pure rumor!"

The American Film Studio has never been so excited to be pointed at and scolded. They were questioned about the copyright ownership of the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D", but they couldn't sit still.

They immediately issued a clarification announcement, saying that although Wanbao participated in the production of "Havoc in Heaven 3D", it is definitely a work of American Film Studio. Please do not spread rumors!

"Ah yes yes yes!"

When the agreement was signed, Gu Miao also knew how to protect the face of Meiying Factory, so she came forward to clarify the matter, saying that it had nothing to do with Wanbao.

of course!

It doesn't matter on the surface, but privately it's hard to say whose account the box office split should go to.

Anyway, Gu Miao is a more realistic person. He values ​​real money more than illusory fame and fortune.

If American Film Studio wants its reputation, then give it to them!
Anyway, the Wanbao family has a great business and is not lacking in this reputation.But when it comes to actual interests, such as box office splitting and peripheral derivatives development, we can't let it go.

The movie "Havoc in Heaven 3D" was promoted very hard by American Film Studio.

Not only did they shout out everywhere, but they also persuaded the official media to help promote it.It seems to be regarded as an outstanding animation work of the new era of American Film Studio.

Gu Miao said that it was understandable for them to do this, but she felt very sorry for it.

What a decline!

If it was the American Film Studio that was at its peak decades ago, would it need to be so humble?At that time, American Film Studio's animations had no worries about popularity.

But times have changed.

Meiying Studio, which is gradually falling from the altar, also needs to use some off-site help to promote their new works.

"Forget it, leave them alone."

Gu Miao, who was counting money until his hands cramped, didn't bother to care about how the American Film Studio promoted it. Anyway, the more publicity, the higher the box office of the movie, and the more he earned.

He wished that the American Film Studio would use their connections to build publicity for "Havoc in Heaven 3D" and let people across the country know about this movie!

On the one hand, the higher the popularity of the movie, the more money Wanbao Animation can get, and the better selling of peripheral derivatives.

On the other hand, it is also the most important point! The essence of the remake of "Havoc in Heaven 3D" is actually the preview trailer of "Journey to the West 3D".

This movie is a hit. The more people know about it, the better it will be for "Journey to the West 3D" that Ma Kui is currently producing, which means that this animation can become popular before it is broadcast.

This is a great thing!
You know, "Journey to the West 3D" is an animation work that Wanbao has high hopes for.If it can take advantage of this trend to become popular, it will definitely be one of the most popular animation works in the history of domestic animation.

Unfortunately……

The progress of the "Journey to the West 3D" project is too slow. Until now, it has only reached 60% of the progress, which is still far from completion.

Otherwise, if the TV version of "Journey to the West 3D" animation is announced to be broadcast after the movie is released, it will definitely gain extremely high attention and ratings.

"Wait another year."

Ma Kui was also helpless.

"Journey to the West 3D" has too many areas that need to be polished, and the production difficulty is not low. It will definitely be out of date this year.

There is some hope next year, not to mention that it will be completely completed, but at least it will be able to communicate with Mr. Gu to prove that they are not speculating.

"It's okay, take your time."

Gu Miao also knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed.Ma Kui can just do it slowly. It's not like he can't afford to wait for just one year.

Moreover.

His progress is already relatively fast. In comparison, the progress of the fantasy world 3A game produced by Xiaolin is slow.

It's been almost a year, and this game has just produced a few materials, and the rest has not been touched...

"Oh my god! I've made this little thing this year, so if I have to finish it completely, I can't start it in five or six years?" Ma Kui said in surprise.

I only made a few character materials and story backgrounds in one year. Is the development of AAA games so slow?
"more or less!"

Gu Miao didn't deny it either.

As far as he knows, the development of well-known 3A games at home and abroad generally follows this progress.If you get results within a year or two, who do you think you are?
The general development cycle for AAA masterpieces is about five years, and some even approach ten years.

This is a pretty long cycle.

In the three years that Xiao Lin promised Gu Miao, he would probably produce a demo at most.

As for the official version, it will take at least four years, and it will take at least three years to start...

Probably this is the reason why no one is willing to do domestic 3A.

The investment return period is too long.

That much money, if invested in other games, would have doubled several times.If you make mobile games that earn money, you can earn dozens of times.

As a result, it was used as a 3A product, and there was no response for several years. If it was ignored by the market after it was released, I would not make any money and would have to lose a lot.

of course!

Cases of AAA losing money are rare. Players’ support for this type of game is quite high. Generally speaking, they make money. The difference is just that they make more money and less money.

However, the efficiency of 3A in making money is too low.

It takes tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars to invest, dozens or hundreds of people, and it takes five or six years to create a AAA masterpiece. Assuming that a game sells for $3, at least 1 million copies must be sold to avoid losing money.

Turtle!

If I had this money and invested it in other industries, I would have made a lot of money!
This is Gu Miao's truest thought, and it is also the main reason why he initially did not agree with Wanbao Games' production of 3A masterpieces.

If Wanbao Games hadn't provided Wanbao Animation with a "Mobile Suit Gundam" project, Gu Miao would not have agreed to Xiaolin's request and approved them to produce a 3A masterpiece.

so far so good!
With the project "Mobile Suit Gundam" at the back, it doesn't matter if it's a AAA masterpiece developed by Wanbao Games.

By selling a few more Gundam models, you can recoup any cost and make a fortune!
From this perspective...

Gu Miao approved Wanbao Games' 3A project and had no regrets from the beginning. After all, she got "Mobile Suit Gundam".

With this IP alone, it’s not too much to top ten AAA games, right?To put it bluntly, the value of this IP far exceeds the revenue that a 3A game can bring.

With Gundam here, Wanbao Games can engage in 3A without any worries.

Not to mention four to five years, maybe four to 50 years. Anyway, Mr. Gu and Gundam are taking care of everything, so what are you afraid of?
