Chapter 114 16. This is called rubbing heat (5k)

"Huh? It's not the same as the game?"

Furukawa Haoze's fingers trembled, and he almost dropped the instant noodles in his hand to the ground.

Originally, he didn't plan to watch Onmyoji's cartoons at first, but after returning home from get off work, he played games for a while, and couldn't resist turning on TV Tokyo when it was almost 7 o'clock.

The main reason is that if you don't take a look at it, your heart will itch.

After all, Onmyoji is also a game he likes very much. From the beginning of this game, Furukawa Hiroshi has been a loyal fan of Onmyoji.

It is precisely because I am a diehard fan that I don't have the courage to watch animation, because I am afraid that the original work will be ruined if the adaptation is not good.

The experience of the game is actually very different from the audience's experience brought by cartoons.

It is very difficult to change the game.

What's more, Kyoto Animation is not well-known, and has been doing outsourcing work before. No matter how beautiful the PV is, Furukawa Haoze still has a big question mark in his heart.

However, after he watched the first episode of "Onmyoji", he was really touched by the plot and the characters in the animation.

The script is brand new, but it maintains the main context of the game, giving you a feeling of deja vu.

And when he saw the male protagonist Ma Cangyuan pushing open the door of the hot spring hotel, he felt a strong anxiety in his heart.

Afterwards, when the onmyojis said there was no hope, and Ma Cangyuan hugged his aunt and cried bitterly, Gu Chuan Haoze's heart was already depressed to the extreme.

That feeling-

The feeling of playing an onmyoji once came rushing in like a tide, irrigating his whole body, and then overflowing from his eye sockets.

The male protagonist cried heart-rendingly, and he couldn't stand it.

Furukawa Haoze wiped his tears with a handkerchief, and scolded Kyoto Animation half to death in his heart.

Damn, the knife is about to be used in the first episode, do you want to be a human again?

The reason why Kyoto Animation did this must be influenced by the old thief Furuhara.

Why, can it be possible to animate it, let's give a better ending.

……

Games and animation are still very different.

In the game, you can store clues in different places, and players can obtain information through exploration and integrate them together.

You can use the turn-based system in the battle, without considering the issue of tension.

But animation is different. Animation is very particular about dramatic effects, especially contradictions and explosive power. If it fails to produce a strong enough attraction to make the audience have a sense of expectation, then the animation will go far.

This is also the reason why it needs to be changed.

Qing Zhiyuan has read and agreed to the script, and he also agrees with Jingani's idea——

Only when the script is adapted, the animation of Onmyoji will become more tense.

……

At the same time, Risheng Animation here.

Having just finished watching the first episode of "Onmyoji" produced by Kyoto Animation, Katsuyoshi Yatabe was silent for a long time.

The colleagues next to him were all talking about it.

"Sure enough, Kyoto Animation is an outsourcing company after all, and it's the first time to take on the main animation production, and it's obviously not up to standard."

"Not to mention the relatively thin plot line, the fineness of the production is not good, and it is obviously lower than ours."

"We're relieved now, aren't we?"

Their evaluations are relatively professional, and a discerning person can tell where the problem is at a glance.

Onmyoji's cartoon has obvious shortcomings. Some scenes have good lines drawn, but the produced effects feel cheap.

The word "poor" can be felt from beginning to end.

Even in the most exciting fighting part of the entire first episode, the participation of the protagonist is very low. Some fighting plots are not smooth enough, and the special effects are not fully in place. It looks more like a half-finished product.

Anyone can know that a work like "Onmyoji" has no strength to compete with "Hatsu Sakura Wars".

It's just because the time is close, and the ancient style was forcibly put together by people.

After reading this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I've worked hard all night, so I'll..." A girl stood up, ready to pack her things and go home from get off work.

"Huh? Is that how you evaluate it?" At this moment, Katsuyoshi Yatabe asked.

Everyone was shocked, looking at the supervisor with strange and confused eyes.

"Their shortcoming is that they are obviously good, but what I see is just the opposite." Katsuyoshi Yatabe said, "The production level of Onmyoji may not be enough, but the storyboard is quite good."

Moreover, with Qing Zhiyuan's original painting foundation here, even if Jingani lacks an original painting master, or their original painting master has not been cultivated, they can do quite well on the basis of Qing Zhiyuan's original painting.

"Have you seen the fighting scene in the first episode clearly? Although the actor's participation is not very high, but in the process of evading attacks and counterattacks, his camera movements are quite beautiful."

"The sense of tension and oppression can still be given to us even under such a rough camera performance, and we even sweat for it. How dare you say that other people's animations are not good?"

In the view of Katsuyoshi Tanitabe, it is through such a simple and rough painting level that Onmyoji makes the movement of the mirror and the fluency of the movements better, and the atmosphere conveyed by the entire animation becomes more prominent.

It is obvious that the supervision of Kyoto Animation is not simple.

and--

After watching this episode, Katsuyoshi Yatabe slightly changed his view on the animation of the game.

The reason why this step can be achieved shows that the original artist of the game itself is also very remarkable.

If Kyoto Animation had a few more Otekko original artists and post-production, what would it look like? !

"Don't underestimate your opponent, and try to improve your own painting level." Katsuyoshi Yatabe said.

"Okay! Supervision!"

……

Three days later, on Monday, the students in the school were all talking about the two cartoons on Friday.

"Nene, have you watched Tokyo Electric's "Hatsu Sakura Wars" and "Onmyoji" on Friday?"

Matsuura Ichiro said, "Yeah. I saw it."

"how do you feel?"

"There's no comparison at all, right? I'm still excited when I think about the first Sakura Senki, and I'm looking forward to what will happen next week. Oda Nobunaga is indeed the sixth day's Great Demon King. He is simply too handsome."

"Mori Ranmaru is also handsome, but it's a pity that he sacrificed himself to buy time for Oda in real history."

"Huh? Really? Why are you telling me this fact? I'm speechless."

"Onmyoji isn't as bad as imagined, is it?" Matsuura retorted, "The early characterizations are very delicate, the plot is good, and the performance of the characters is good, there is a feeling of gradual progress, and you don't think it's a nuisance. When Cang Yuan hugged his aunt and cried bitterly, did he feel heartbroken?"

"Tsk tsk, you still use the idiom "heartbreak." The friend next to him bumped Matsuura with his elbow, teasing.

"I feel the same, but the boy is embarrassed to say that he cried, it's embarrassing."

"Nonsense, are you crying too? Me too."

"Everyone will be moved, right? Especially in the atmosphere at that time, basically they thought they couldn't live."

"Yeah, my aunt couldn't be saved there, and I cried like the male protagonist, and felt that such a male protagonist was miserable. Then when I heard that there was hope of being rescued, I was so excited."

"Yeah, I can understand. When I saw the male lead sailing out to sea, accompanied by the grand background music, I just felt extremely moved, and I was so excited that tears filled my eyes."

"To be honest, it's the first time I can cry twice in the first episode."

"Oh, when will Friday come?"

……

Originally, the broadcast of these two cartoons was not something worthy of attention. If it was not because of the crash, it would have been broadcast as soon as it was broadcast. You may have an impression after watching it and you will not think about so many things.

But after the crash, it aroused widespread concern.

Not only Risheng's "Hatsu Sakura Wars", but also Kyoto Animation's "Onmyoji" have achieved very good ratings.

And after that, the heat continued to ferment, and people often mentioned it as a comparison.

As a conversation piece before and after dinner.

Even many media have compared and commented on the two animations.

After the first week, the animation industry has bound these two animations together, and I really want to know what will happen next.

On Friday of the second week, both "Hatsu Sakura Wars" and "Onmyoji" submitted a good answer sheet.

There is nothing to say about Hatsu Sakura Senki. I have a lot of experience in making animations, and there are many talents. The content of the second chapter has raised the work to a new level. The animation ratings are even on Tokyo TV. A considerable breakthrough has been achieved.

And the most touching thing is--

The second episode of "Onmyoji" produced by Kyoto Animation actually has a very high improvement in quality. The rough performance that can be clearly seen in the first episode has basically been cleaned up here. , the level of painting is obviously more powerful.

By the third week, the third chapter of "Onmyoji" could not find many flaws, but people talked about it because of its "divine storyboard" and excellent script.

If "Hatsu Sakura Wars" is a French feast, it will amaze the audience as soon as it comes up, and people have to score high.

Then "Onmyoji" is like a Chinese food with a strong taste, which becomes more fragrant as it goes on, which makes people like it.

In other words, Kyoto Animation is progressing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In February, Onmyoji and First Sakura Wars became popular at the same time.

Yes, it's like the fire at the Honnoji Temple shown in the first episode of Hatsaku Senki, which is burning blazingly, burning through half the sky.

After every Friday broadcast, people inevitably get together to discuss these two animations.

……

After the animation became popular, pokeni is naturally a keyword that is often mentioned.

"Huh?! How did this happen?"

Akane Ayase tilted her head, her big eyes flickered, and she didn't think much about it until now.

"The animation we produced is not as good as Risheng, but the popularity is even higher. Why is that?"

"How do you know it's hotter?"

"Because many sellers have called us before, and want to order some more Onmyoji cassettes." Kazuma Takahashi, the polished commander of the marketing department, took up the conversation with a smile.

"and……"

Akane Ayase glanced at the cardboard box in the corner, "We have received more blades."

Qing Zhiyuan: ...

Damn chicken, since when did sending blades become popular?

"President, did you think of this level from the beginning?" Akane Ayase put her hands on Qing Zhiyuan's table and looked at him with doubts and admiration, "Because I remember that Kyoto Animation called Came over to ask if you want to change the schedule, but you refused.

Just because I thought of today, right? "

After talking about this, Qing Zhiyuan stopped pretending, just sat on the chair, turned around slowly, and smiled triumphantly.

"Do you know what this is called?"

"what is it call?"

"Get hot." Qing Zhiyuan said, "If others have a stronger reputation, if we bind ourselves to each other, it will make others notice."

Sega and Ren Tiantang often do this kind of thing, but only through the way of pulling and stepping. For example, Sega always likes to implant in advertisements——

Ren Tiantang's handheld is too low, and it's still a black and white screen, and it's better to play in color.

Of course, Ren Tiantang is not idle, and the advertisements often satirize Sega's poor battery life of the handheld.

Generally speaking, Ren Tiantang must suffer.

In any marketing case of hype, the one who takes advantage is always the one with the lesser reputation.

In other words, this is actually a win-win outcome, it's just that the lesser-known ones win more.

"Moreover, there is also a psychological factor." Qing Zhiyuan said, "People prefer those who start from a low level and can grow rapidly, and are more attractive than those who are already excellent and achieve better results."

The reason why the TV series "Dragon Cherry" was able to resound in the neon lights later, even touched and encouraged many Chinese audiences, because the starting point of several protagonists portrayed in Dragon Cherry is very low——

The countdown of the whole grade, through hard work and then admitted to the university with the number one neon.

This incident is more inspiring than the fact that the person who was originally the number one in the school was admitted to the university with the number one neon.

"The Bottom Spice Girl" also took this path.

In China, it is more moving to see a prodigal son turn his head back than a genius who rises to the top.

"The current Kyoto Animation is like this," Qing Zhiyuan said, "You can understand that Cheng Risheng Animation is the top three in the whole grade, and Kyoto Animation is a poor student at the bottom, but now this guy who is at the bottom can actually pass the exam. Isn't it very exciting, isn't it very encouraging?"

"Wow!" Akane Ayase shook her whole body, and stretched out her hand to pat Qing Zhiyuan's back, "President, aren't you too good?"

"Ace... can't you be lighter?!"

……

Although everyone likes to compare "First Sakura Wars" and "Onmyoji" together, the main reason is that both are ancient themes, and they are both broadcast on the same TV station on the same day.

Not long after the last cartoon ended, the memory has not dissipated yet, and the next one is coming.

It's hard not to compare.

In fact, there is a big difference between the stories narrated and the worldview.

Hitting the subject matter can only be described as a coincidence.

Even if Risheng Company wants to sue Kyoto Animation for plagiarism, there is no way.

After all, they are making a game adaptation, and the game was released two years ago. From the perspective of creation time, Onmyoji should be in the front.

If Qing Zhiyuan is more shameless, he can also sue Risheng Animation for plagiarizing their "Onmyoji"

……

Generally speaking, although this car crash was accidental, it brought great enthusiasm to both Risheng and Kyoto Animation, and Risheng was also a little dumbfounded.

At first, I felt a little angry. After all, they are the stronger and more famous party, so they will feel somewhat uncomfortable when they are "touched by people".

But seeing the rising ratings and the sales of videotapes are getting better and better, Risheng Animation is relieved.

In fact, Risheng Animation tasted the sweetness for the first time, wishing to continue to be "touched" by [Pengci], the higher the topic level, the better.

KyoAni did not expect such a result.

It was the first time as the main producer, and it actually achieved good results.

The main reason is the feeling of being scolded and cast aside at the beginning, to being ignited by being competitive, gradually catching up, and slowly transitioning to being praised by others, which is really good.

After the third episode aired, Hatta Hideaki, the president of Kyoto Animation, came to Tokyo to visit Qing Zhiyuan and brought him a lot of gifts.

"Thank you, President Qing, you are really amazing. Thank you for choosing us."

"No, no." Qing Zhiyuan waved his hands and said, "This is also because Kyoto Animation itself has a high potential, but it has not been able to realize it before."

Speaking of potential...

No one agrees with this statement more than Hideaki Hatta.

He himself did not expect that the employees of the company could be motivated to such a degree and have made great progress in such a short period of time.

It was nothing short of a miracle.

"Inspiring us in this way, without your encouragement and expectations for us, we would not have worked so hard, nor would we have made such great progress. All this is thanks to you."

Speaking of this, Hatta Hideaki couldn't help but sigh again.

President Qing is simply a genius for managing and motivating people.

It was the first time he saw that everyone in Kyoto Animation could be inspired to such a degree, as if they were burning.

"Incentive?" Qing Zhiyuan felt a little confused.

"Yeah." Hatta Hideaki nodded approvingly, "At that time, Kyoto Animation heard that it was going to collide with Risheng, and it was broadcast on the same TV station on the same day. I didn't have any confidence in my heart. Everyone He thought he was going to be severely defeated by the opponent.

In such a gloomy situation, President Qing gave us hope.

because you said—

Believe in yourself.

Let's not change the broadcast time, but wrestle with Risheng head-on.

I know, you are telling us not to be afraid, because the real opponent is ourselves, and we can only win if we have the courage to face a strong enemy, a persistent attitude and [-]% effort.

We would never have made such great progress without you. "

Eh?
Qing Zhiyuan froze for a moment.

Did I think so?
……

————————————————————————————————————

The [-]-word task is completed.

See you tomorrow everyone.
