Chapter 120 The Current Situation of Wanbao Video (Please Subscribe)
About the character prototype.

Since she couldn't explain clearly, Gu Miao didn't bother to argue with the audience.Since the audience thinks that there is a prototype, then let it be...

As long as it's not that teenage idol who's making a fuss!

By the way.

In fact, it is not uncommon for animated characters to have realistic prototypes.Many classic animated characters are actually created based on real people.

In the classic "Tom and Jerry", the prototype of Tom is a British shorthair cat, and the mouse Jerry is a Dutch pet mouse.

The prototype of the protagonist of "Popeye" who loves to eat spinach is actually a "sailor fellow" named Frank, the original author of the comics.

The prototypes of Da Daguai and Bald Qiang are well-known Xiangjiang actors, and the protagonist of "The Adventures of Chen Long" is...

This Gu Miao really doesn't know!
It is very common to create animations, comics, and film and television novels based on real people.

Moon Hare in "Sailor Moon" may really have a prototype, or it may just be a beautiful girl imagined by Takeuchi Naoko.

But it doesn't matter.

From Gu Miao's point of view, even if people in the Two-dimensional world have prototypes of real characters, they cannot be integrated into one. They are always independent individuals.

Rather than worrying about this, why not think about it, why is it almost June, and the animation "Pigman" can still set off a new round of ratings boom?
"This is because……"

Huang Kun, who was in charge of connecting with various TV stations and arranging the rebroadcast, said without blushing, "The kids really like GG Bond so much!"

How much do you like it?

Does it count if you don't think about tea and rice?

"Smart, brave and strong, I really envy myself, hula hoops are fine, backflip for two weeks and then salute..."

Accompanied by crisp and melodious singing, in this spring, the humorous Pigman and Mr. Misty, with their hilarious lines, have become popular all over the country.

Many children.

In order to watch this animation on time, I reluctantly gave up all kinds of entertainment activities, and ran home impatiently after school, sat in front of the TV, and watched Pigman embark on various adventures.

This kind of love is no less than that of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", which was all the rage last year.

"Why do you like Pigman?"

"Because he's funny!"

In the face of reporters' questions, the primary school students wearing the school uniforms of Jiangchuan No. [-] Primary School and carrying Pleasant Goat schoolbags gladly answered many puzzled questions from people in the industry, including parents.

Yes, funny!
Many people subconsciously ignore one point, that is, the audience of funny animation is far larger and wider than that of serious animation.

What kids want is simple:
Joyful and happy!

As long as this animation can make them laugh and make them feel happy, OK, then this is a qualified sub-supplied animation.

"Pig Man" fits this point very well.

In terms of being funny, it can be said that Pigman has done better than "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", so it is not surprising that it is popular.

Of course, funny is just flesh and blood.

The "skeleton" that really supports this animation is the simple but not crude plot, as well as the vivid and three-dimensional character settings.

Don't underestimate the funny animation!

Anyone can be purely funny, but works that can truly tell a complete story amid laughter and laughter are rare in the entire industry.

and……

Funny animation, just funny?

You only saw GG Bond's humor and humor, but didn't you see his heroic heart and willingness to face the devil in order to protect the environment?

You only saw the confused teacher running the train with his mouth full of mouth, but didn't you see him risking his life to fool the dragon in order to save his best students?

Therefore, the success of "Pig Man" is not accidental.

The interesting plot, the lines that make people laugh from ear to ear, and the excellent background of the characters... all together create the brilliant performance of "Pigman".

This is Huang Kun's opinion.

But even as a director, he didn't expect "Pig Man" to be loved by so many audiences.

"It feels like a dream."

Looking at the high score of 3 given by more than 9.8 viewers on the Wanbao video website, Huang Kun muttered to himself.

This is outrageous too!

It is only 0.2 points away from the perfect score. This is not a score given by some pheasant website, but a real "real audience" score.

"I don't think it makes sense."

Gu Miao pointed at the side and said, "Why do I direct "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", "Leading Lightning Crossing the Line" and "Sailor Moon" without scoring as high as yours?"

This is my own website!

I dare not say that all Wanbao Video users are his fans, at least nine out of ten have seen his animations, right?

The result is that the ratings of the works are hard to describe.

Either "Gu Chui" who scored full marks with no brains, or "Gu Hei" who had no brains and one star, leaving comments that have nothing to do with the content of the animation.

He looked at it and complained of a headache.

"It is true that some people are making trouble on purpose. I suspect that it is a navy hired by a friend..."

Ma Kui, who sneaked into the office and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two, explained: "Wanbao Video has been developing rapidly recently, and my colleagues must be anxious."

"It makes sense." Gu Miao nodded.

After Wanbao Video became independent, it not only launched a number of animation works under its banner, but also created a batch of "new season" copyrights by virtue of the relationship between TBS and the Neon branch.

This is just great.

The foundation of a well-known two-dimensional website has been leveraged. Many viewers who like to watch neon anime can only come to Wanbao if they want to catch up with new shows.

The number of users has increased significantly.

There are popular animations such as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", "Pigman", "Sailor Moon" and other popular animations, and there are a batch of purchased neon new animations outside.

After a set of combo punches, Wanbao Video is happy, but friends and businessmen are depressed.

In order to grab market share and bring back lost users, it is not unreasonable to send trolls to Wanbao Video to make trouble and maliciously give Gu Miao's animation a low score.

But this method...

To be honest, it's a bit too childish.

"Don't worry about others, we just do our own thing well. Encourage users to upload more original videos and consolidate their own copyright advantages. Sooner or later, the number of users will surpass them."

Gu Miao curled her lips and said, "Suppression and smearing or something, in the face of absolute strength, it's not bullshit."

The "Battle of Two Cities" animation broadcast exclusively by Penguin was still coldly treated by other websites, but what happened?
It didn't even fire up smoothly!
Moreover, a certain website was smart enough to promote a neon animation to compete with "Battle of Two Cities", trying to stabilize users, but everyone saw it.

It's useless to engage in those bells and whistles.

In the case of video sites, copyright is king.Without the copyright of popular works, no matter how many users there are, there is no way to retain them.
