Chapter 737 Adult-oriented animation? (seeking subscription)

Du Hao is back.

He came back this time not because the film "The Lion King" was finished, but to participate in the general election of the Huaguo Animation Industry Association held in late March this year.

That's right!

Gu Miao has served as the president of the association for two years. Although it is required to be re-elected according to the regulations, everyone knows that as long as he is willing to run for the election, the president will still be his.

But the problem is that the current president, Gu Miao, has no interest in being re-elected.

During his two years as the president of the Animation Association, he was really annoyed. He didn't have any bullshit benefits, and he had to worry about all kinds of trivial matters.

for example.

He was working on the "Bear Infested" animation when he suddenly received a call telling him that he needed to attend a certain event, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to rush to the event location overnight.

Give another example.

As the president, Gu Miao shoulders the heavy responsibility of coordinating the conflicts among the members of the association.

Whoever quarrels with whom, and whoever has a conflict with whom, will always find him and ask him to come forward to uphold justice, or appease and persuade...

Let's be the president whoever likes it!
Anyway, Gu Miao was tired. No matter how the competent department tried to persuade her, she always maintained an attitude: I just want to be an ordinary member. As for the president, you should hire someone else!

His refusal to be re-elected was partly due to his family.

His son, Xiao Sensen, is growing up, and the old father's health has not been very good recently. He can't be busy with work all day long, and neglect to accompany and care for his family, right?If he continues to serve as the president, his time will inevitably be taken up.

So, this is an irreconcilable contradiction.

Gu Miao has earned so much money and has reached the height of success and fame. She has an indifferent attitude towards these so-called false names.

A few years ago, perhaps he still needed the position of the chairman of this association to prove Wanbao's respected status in the industry.

But now, who cares?

Wanbao has already won an Oscar, and the latest masterpiece "The Lion King" is aimed at the global market. For these domestic friends, Wanbao is no longer an opponent at the same level.

You have all gone to cultivate immortals, and you are still in the secular world, fighting for the throne with a group of mortals. Isn't it embarrassing to say it?
Based on these premises.

In the election of the chairman of the association, Gu Miao voluntarily abstained, and members of the Wanbao family fully supported Ma Kui's election for the chairman.

Of course, this is Tu Yile.

Ma Kui also knew that he had no hope, and that his participation in the election was purely for personal gain, so he was very optimistic. Even if the result of the final defeat was announced, he was not too disappointed.

The chairman is someone else.

The new chairman is a highly respected senior in the industry. It is said that he has retired for almost 20 years.

Pushing him out to be the president was mainly for the sake of transition. After all, Gu Miao refused to be re-elected, and he couldn't find a suitable successor for a while, so he had to leave it at that.

"I reckon that the next president will probably be airborne!"

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "These people in the association, which one is not human? You let them spare time to do such thankless things, who would be happy?"

"really."

Gu Miao nodded.

The president of this association is far away from home for many small things, but he has no benefits, and he doesn't even have a formal establishment, so it's really meaningless in front of him.

In the next session, it is estimated that the higher authorities will intervene and directly engage in the "airborne gold plating".

After all, everyone is really allowed to choose, but they can't be elected at all. There are not many people who sign up, so how can they elect the president?
"This so-called industry association still has too little meaning, and the authorities don't pay much attention to us." Gu Miao couldn't help but sigh when she said this.

During his tenure as president, he once united with the members and gave advice to the higher authorities.

It probably means...

Can domestic animation review standards be on par with "TV dramas" or "movies"?Don't engage in categorical discrimination?
As a result, the opinion was brought up, but not only was it not resolved, but Gu Miao, the chairman, was named and criticized.

After all.

Although the achievements of domestic animation are not low, but in terms of status, it is really not as good as the two categories of TV dramas and movies...

When it comes to cartoons, many old and stubborn people are sure that this is "for children". Animation is linked to children, so XX content cannot appear.

What kind of logic is this?
Gu Miao has always felt that those older generations who forcibly associate animation with children, thinking that only children can watch animation, are too decadent in thinking.

It is undeniable that the main audience of most animation works, whether it is TV animation or animated movies, is minors.

But you can't kill everyone with one shot!
There are still a small group of animation works whose main audience is not minors, but young people, which is the so-called "adult-oriented" animation.

Everything has two sides.

There is nothing wrong with the current set of standards for animations broadcast to children and minors.But adult-oriented animation, should we still follow this set of standards?

Except for underage children, other people are not qualified, don't they deserve to watch cartoons?

"Director Wang has already given us positive feedback on this issue. It is said that he has also prepared a proposal and plans to submit it to the leader for review..."

Lao Zhang comforted Mr. Gu and said: "Don't worry! The thinking of the older generation is not so easy to change, we have to take it step by step."

"Besides, Wanbao doesn't have adult-oriented animations of this kind, so why are you so concerned?"

"I don't like to hear what you say."

Gu Miao raised her eyebrows and retorted to Lao Zhang: "Not now, doesn't mean there won't be in the future. As long as we let go of this hole, we can make an animation for adults at any time."

"What's the matter?"

"Animation for adults?" Huang Kun, who just opened the door and walked in, couldn't help teasing when he heard this, "It won't be the kind of animation I thought, hehehe, right?"

"Mr. Huang, please be mentally healthy, we are a serious animation company, and driving is prohibited!"

Gu Miao rolled her eyes and said, "In your understanding, the so-called adult-oriented animation can only be the kind of subject matter that makes a fuss?"

"Why not?"

"Can't it be a dark and heavy story with a bit of philosophy?" Gu Miao gave an example, "An animation that has endless aftertaste after watching it, just like those classic movies, guides the audience to explore human nature, is it considered an adult? Towards?"

"It definitely counts!"

"But will there really be a market for the animation you mentioned?" Huang Kun hesitated.

"It depends!"

Gu Miao shook her head, and said uncertainly: "The market is not decided by you or me, but by the audience's aesthetics."

Most likely not now.

But in a few years, as the Two-dimensional culture becomes more and more popular, more and more young people love this subculture, and there must be a broad market for related adult-oriented animations.
