My quadratic is absolutely abnormal

: Monogatari’s Earning Ability

“Story Series”

This is the work Su Jie chose to submit after many considerations.

In Su Jie’s previous life, the “Monogatari Series” was a golden signboard. Not to mention the novels that have sold millions of copies, it occupies a pivotal position in the animation works of light novels.

Generally speaking, if the cumulative sales volume of a light novel can exceed 2 million copies, it can be called a popular work.

If the animation adapted from the work can also achieve this disc sales, what kind of terrible picture will it be? The Story series did just that.

In addition, the sales volume of several animated BDs (Blu-ray Discs) of the Monogatari series averaged over 100,000. In the historical sales ranking, it is second only to EVA at the top of the list, surpassing Mobile Suit by as much as a head.

What kind of concept is this? There are hundreds of millions of people in Japan, but if an animation BD Blu-ray disc can sell 10,000 copies on average, it is considered a hit.When the fire broke out, sales exceeding 33,000 were called the wall of masterpieces.

Under normal circumstances, a BD sells for 6,000 yen, and if 10,000 people buy it, it will be 60 million yen (approximately RMB 3.85 million). This is only a single-volume sales volume, and usually 6 BDs will be released in a single season of animation.

However, the average sales volume of many animation BDs is difficult to reach 10,000. If there is a sales volume of 5,000 BDs, it is already a profit for the producer. After all, animations also have peripherals and other profit income, but the actual sales volume is only 10,000 to 2,000. It’s all, such as a certain daily, such as a certain Sakamoto boss, such as a certain fan family, the sales are really amazing.

These are BD sales that are very low. Many Japanese animations are of high quality, but their BD sales may also lead to sudden death, so there are not a few animation companies that have gone bankrupt.

Calculated in this way, there are only a handful of animations that can achieve the achievement of animation in the Monogatari series, and they are also extremely profitable animations.

Su Jie leaned lazily on the chair and thought about the monogatari.

Editor Machida Sonoko flipped through the manuscript.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu glanced at Su Jie with beautiful eyes, seeing Su Jie as if he was about to fall asleep, he was angry and funny in his heart, why is this person so confident, the editor is reviewing the manuscript in front of him, he doesn’t care at all Worried about being rejected?

Time is slowly passing by. Originally, editor Machida Sonoko had a flat expression on his face. Editors review hundreds of thousands of words every day. Editor Machida Sonoko has read the beginnings of novels. Move her.

But as time passed, Machida Yuanzi’s expression became more and more focused, her eyes were fixed on the manuscript without blinking, even Su Jie’s lazy appearance did not raise her head, her attention was all attracted by the story novel.

“How is the matter in your animation studio?” The atmosphere in the office was a bit dull, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu opened his mouth to find a topic, and asked about Su Jie’s animation studio.

“Aren’t you not concerned about this?”

“Say it or not.”

After being stared at, Su Jie shrugged his shoulders and said: “The animation studio will be established in two days, and the first animation to be produced has also been decided. We will wait for the studio to open and start production.”

“How much is invested? Is it expected to make a profit?”

“Invest 50 million yen in advance, and continue to invest more in the future. If you make a profit, well, this shouldn’t be a loss, it should be…”

Su Jie’s voice became quieter after he said that, because the animation “Daily Life of High School Boys” in his previous life was also a TV hit and received rave reviews, but the BD Blu-ray Disc’s sudden death, the BD sales volume was only one or two thousand volumes.

“Should? Have your words been accurate?” Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu heard Su Jie’s guilty conscience. Seeing that Su Jie invested a huge amount of money without preparation, it is very likely that all risks will be in vain, so he couldn’t help it. Come on.

“It’s definitely accurate this time.” Su Jie smiled awkwardly, his eyes swept over the manuscript on the desk, and his guilty conscience disappeared a lot.

The animation “Daily Life of High School Boys” will not make money. Su Jie knew it early on, but Su Jie still chose to use it as the animation studio’s first choice. The low cost is one aspect, and there is also the consideration of initially establishing the studio’s reputation. .

Don’t look at the sudden death of BD, but it was very popular in Japan at that time. After this animation came out, it was able to make the studio famous. It will take the initiative to come to work.

After the accumulation of a work, the staff of Su Jie Animation Studio have been trained and newly recruited talents are able to produce animations with a higher level of technology. For this second animation, Su Jie plans to choose ” Monogatari Series” as a real rocker to the animation industry.

“Well, the first animation was mainly for practice, not for making money. I didn’t consider the issue of making money until the animation studio has more proficient skills and standards. That’s a matter for the second animation work.”

Su Jie explained to Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, but Xiazhiqiu Shiyu didn’t know Su Jie’s plan, and said with a cold face: “This industry is so deep, if your first animation doesn’t make money or even loses money, where can you continue to ask for funds?” The second animation, do you want to wait for bankruptcy? It’s too late to stop now.”

The tone was very harsh, but Su Jie knew that Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu was doing it for his own good, and hoped that Su Jie would not take such unnecessary risks. It was the same reason as his family members told him that safety was the most important thing.

“I’m confident that the second animation can make money, and the little ups and downs in the early stage are nothing.” Su Jie raised his chin towards the editor Machida Sonoko who was on the desk, and whispered to Kasumigaoka Shiwa: “The second animation Just on this novel, I can definitely make money, you have to believe in my talent.”

He bought such a good Monogatari series in his previous life. Su Jie believes that in this world, it will definitely not be bad. It is even more likely that he will be like One Punch Man, and his sales performance will be even better than in his previous life.

“Animation of light novels? Can you make money?” Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu looked at Su Jie unexpectedly, and didn’t guess that Su Jie had this plan.

Speaking of the light novel animation Hua Xiazhiqiu Shiyu is no stranger, her “Love Metronome” novel animation copyright was sold for 8 million yen, and Su Jie has made great efforts on this.

“Make a lot of money.” Su Jie nodded emphatically.

Perhaps the Monogatari series is not the most profitable animation, for a successful animation, discs are only part of the profit.

In animation works, such as Madoka, GaoThe commercial effects of Da, Qingyin, etc. from peripherals, theater versions, and related effects are no worse than Monogatari, especially the horror production value of Gunpla bought all over the world, and it is not comparable to Monogatari.

But Su Jie still chose the Monogatari series instead of other more profitable animations. Without him, quick money is an important factor.

After all, it is not a long-term thing to rely solely on comics to inject blood into animation studios. After “Daily Life of High School Boys” became famous, how to make animation studios profitable as quickly as possible is the first choice.

The first animated work of the Monogatari series, “Hua Monogatari”, after the broadcast of the previous animation, BD sales have exceeded 70,000 copies a week, and most collectors will choose to buy it in the first week of the new BD volume, 70,000 The accumulative sales price of Zhang BD exceeds RMB 25 million.

And as the animation is updated every week, new BDs will also be sold accordingly, eventually reaching a terrifying sales of hundreds of thousands of BDs, worth more than 100 million RMB

ps: I’ve been checking the data for a long time, and I don’t know if it’s all accurate and true. I’m not good at it, so just take a look at it. After all, the protagonists travel through different eras.
