My Animation Era

It was just Gu Miao's whim to ask Lao Zhang to contact the management of Perak Perak.

 He also knew that there was a high probability that this matter would be fruitless.

The relationship between Pili and Pili is much closer than that of Wanbao. Even if he really comes to the point of selling himself to join Penguin, he will still sell himself to Penguin.

But it doesn’t matter.

Perak Perak was already half-dead, and users were constantly losing. It would be a good thing if the negotiation could be concluded, but it would not have any impact if the negotiation could not be concluded.

 As the Spring Festival approaches, Gu Miao also starts to get busy.

The animation "Martin's Morning" has entered its final sprint, the movies "The Good Lord" and "Dragon Ball: World No. 1" have begun to be pre-released, and the "Mobile Suit Gundam" body leak crisis has intensified...

Yes!

Although the Gundam project has a high level of confidentiality, the body design has been exposed due to the small-scale release of the first version of the original Gundam model.

　　At first, we were a group of fans who bought models of the Original Gundam in the official flagship store. They became curious about the origin of the Original Gundam and wanted to know which work this machine came from?

So someone started an investigation.

There is no airtight wall in the world. No matter how well the confidentiality work is done, some clues will eventually be revealed.

Through the new work information disclosed by Wanbao Games, the cooperation between Wanbao Animation and Wanbao Games, and the animation registration information left by Wanbao Animation in the official department, "Mobile Suit Gundam" was finally exposed.

In addition to the original Gundam, other mechas that have appeared in animations have also been picked out by netizens with powerful skills.

 This matter caused quite a stir during New Year's Day.

As almost everyone knows, Wanbao Animation is preparing to produce a brand new "robot" animation.

Although the specific setting content is unknown, judging from the exposed Gundam body design, the style of this robot animation is still very alternative, and it seems to be different from previous robot animations.

 Netizens are talking a lot.

“Hey! The sharp-edged robot is very domineering and has a sense of epic science fiction...”

“Fart! You call this sci-fi? How good is this kind of robot? It doesn’t look as cool as a treasure mecha!”

"You can't say that. What's the style of the Guobao mecha? This Gundam is obviously not the same type at first glance. If you insist on comparing it like this, then I have nothing to say."

“What style? Isn’t this just a giant robot! A concept that often appeared in science fiction movies before, but now it’s changed into animation and you don’t recognize it? It’s so funny!”

“There are so many tricksters, and the animation hasn’t been aired yet. Can you wait until the animation is aired before expressing your opinions?”

 Some people like it, and some people don’t.

 After the Gundam body design was exposed, many netizens started discussions around this alternative robot.

 It is worth noting that without understanding the story background and settings of Gundam, most people’s first impression of Gundam is not very good.

 Mainly, the Gundam’s body doesn’t look very handsome or cool!

This kind of coolness and coolness refers to the strong animation style like the Dragon God in "Dragon Fighter" and the Demon King of Earth in "Light Bringer".

How to describe it?

Robots like Dragon God and Earth Demon King give people the first impression that they are handsome, invincible, and have the appearance of robot animations.

 On the other hand, Gundam is not that "eye-catching" in appearance.

 This shouldn’t be the case!

At this moment, netizens still don’t know what the realistic weapon style is, but they simply think that the Gundam’s body design seems different from what they imagined?

“So in your imagination, what should Gundam look like?”

"It should be... there is a pair of large light wings on the back, which can be telescopic and unfolded, and then it is wearing a battle armor. The design elements have a bit of mythology, such as dragons, unicorns, and phoenixes!"

“Just say that the Dragon God is what you think the Gundam looks like!” Gu Miao said speechlessly.

Guo Hongwei’s silly idea is like that of many netizens, who think that robots must be designed like the “Dragon God” to be cool enough.

 Realistic weapon-style robots, especially Gundams, seem to them to lack a bit of domineering and look weird.

 But this is normal!

　　Why do the designs of robots and mechas on the technological side have to be related to the mysterious side, with mythological elements such as dragons, unicorns, and phoenixes embedded in them?

 Indeed, he admitted that after adding these elements to the body design, the robot will look very domineering and stylish.

But is this still a product of technology?

 Developed along the lines of science and technology, the design style of Gundam is the most realistic "pragmatic" science fiction design concept.

 A machine like the Dragon God should not be classified as a "robot".

It is already a dragon god, why do you still compare it with a robot? Is your robot transformed from a dragon god?

They are obviously not the same style of machine, but netizens insist on comparing them together. This behavior makes Gu Miao very speechless.

 Really awesome!

Even if we take a robot like Transformers Optimus Prime as an example, he probably agrees with it. After all, Brother Zhuzhu can be considered an orthodox technological robot animation.

But the Dragon God and the Lightbringer are really too much. These two are clearly on the magical fantasy side...

 “Forget it, you’ll understand later.”

Gu Miao, who was too lazy to explain to netizens why the Gundam had such a body design, shook her head and asked: "Let's not talk about it for now, are you ready for the movie Gou Lai Fu Wang?"

"Ready."

Guo Hongwei said with confidence: "The movie will definitely be released as scheduled. Master, just wait for my good news."

good news?

 It may not be good news, it might be terrible bad news, Gu Miao curled her lips and thought.

This year's Spring Festival, although there is no heavyweight animated film in China that can compete with "Gou Lai Fu Wang", there is a Dragon Ball theatrical version abroad that is eyeing it!

 According to the plan, the Dragon Ball movie version is expected to be released on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month this year, which is around the Lantern Festival.

 Gou Lai Fu Wang is scheduled to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year!

This also means that the two movies will collide sooner or later. Dragon Ball The Movie will be released simultaneously around the world. It has huge fame at home and abroad, and its influence cannot be underestimated.

 It's okay abroad. After all, "Gou Lai Fu Wang" doesn't expect overseas box office. The main focus is a civil war fantasy god.

 But even in China, Dragon Ball seems to be quite famous...

Whether Guo Hongwei can survive this crisis is still unknown. After all, Dragon Ball The Movie is a blockbuster film that cost 850 million yen to create, and Gou Lai Fu Wang is really incomparable.

“Only 850 million yen?”

When Guo Hongwei heard this number, he suddenly showed a surprised expression: "Didn't it say one billion yen? I saw Nishio also said the same in an interview."

“The external publicity will definitely be exaggerated, and the initial budget is indeed one billion.”

Gu Miao smiled slightly and said: "It's just that I saved a little in the process and didn't spend so much."

 Nishio is a good comrade.

  He also knew that the Neon Division was short of money, so he controlled the budget as much as possible, saved unnecessary expenses, and compressed the production cost to 850 million yen.

Calculated at the current exchange rate, he saved the company about 10 million yuan and compressed the production budget to 50 million yuan.    This is not a small sum of money!

 It can only be said that Nishio has really tried his best. "Dragon Ball: No. 1" is after all the first theatrical version of the Dragon Ball series. It cannot be too economical, and the money that should be spent must be spent.

 Otherwise, he can completely reduce the production cost and only need more than 20 million yuan to produce it.

 But in this case, it’s hard to say whether Dragon Ball The Movie will still have the same effect as it does now.

 …

 50 million vs 23 million, Xiao Guo has little advantage.

Not to mention the huge disadvantage of production costs, in terms of IP popularity alone, Dragon Ball is also the one that outshines Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf.

 The only good news is that Xiao Guo at least has the home court advantage. With the increase brought by the home court, it is not impossible to compete with the Dragon Ball Theatrical Edition.

 But Gu Miao was miserable.

When the animation "Martin's Morning" was officially finalized and confirmed to be broadcast on the Red Crane Cartoon during the Spring Festival, an announcement from CCTV Children's Channel confused him.

“Good news, good news! The popular “SpongeBob SquarePants” will be broadcast on CCTV Children’s Channel soon. Come and start a wonderful adventure with SpongeBob, Squidward and Patrick!”

ah?

Gu Miao’s jaw dropped in shock.

 What kind of wonderful development is this? Isn’t it said that it is difficult to obtain import permission for overseas animation and broadcast it on domestic TV stations?

　　Why was quietly Mimi's "SpongeBob SquarePants" introduced and broadcast by CCTV Children's Channel?

 Gu Miao, who was kept in the dark, immediately contacted Dave, the chief director of "SpongeBob SquarePants" after receiving the news, and asked what was going on.

 The result surprised him.

It turns out that CCTV had talked to Dave about this matter a long time ago, but CCTV was not very determined at the time. It happened that the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" animation was popular at the time, so the matter was ignored.

With the passage of time, the animation "SpongeBob SquarePants" has received rave reviews around the world and won numerous awards. The online version also won unanimous praise from Wanbao Video. CCTV Children's Channel thought of this again.

 “Actually, we have been talking about this matter for almost half a year.”

Dave said with a speechless face: "On the contrary, the subsequent "Superman" was successfully introduced, and "SpongeBob SquarePants" has not yet been finalized..."

 This is too long.

“Superman” was a later animation, but it was all introduced and broadcast. The first one we talked about, “SpongeBob SquarePants,” has not yet been completed.

 Because there was no agreement, Dave did not tell Mr. Gu.

 “Damn it, you are a pest!”

Gu Miao was very angry and called Dave a cheater. Wasn't this putting him on the fire?

Knowing that he would release a new work during the Spring Festival, it happened that the introduction of "SpongeBob SquarePants" was concluded at this time.

That’s SpongeBob!

Although this animation has been completed for a long time and the second season has not been aired yet, its popularity has declined and is far from its peak.

 But the influence of SpongeBob SquarePants cannot be overshadowed. Once it is broadcast on CCTV Children's Channel, the ratings will definitely not be low.

 What about "Mornings with Martin"?

 Gu Miao doesn’t think that “Martin’s Morning” has the capital to compete head-on with “SpongeBob SquarePants”. The two animations are not on the same level, and they are no match no matter how you look at them.

Not to mention that this is the first time "SpongeBob SquarePants" has been broadcast on domestic TV stations. Even if it is a second or third round of rebroadcasts... it will be difficult for Martin to turn over the yellow sponge!

The good news is that the broadcast time period of "SpongeBob SquarePants" announced by CCTV Children's Channel is 17:00-18:00.

 As long as this time period is staggered, "Martin's Morning" will not be greatly affected.

 But the bad news is that after Red Crane Cartoon excluded the 17:00 pm slot, the only slot available to him is the 21:00 pm slot.

 Good guy!

　　Starting at nine o'clock in the evening?

 At this time, although the children are not sleeping yet, they are almost sleepy.

If you can choose, the 17:00, 18:00 or even 19:00 slots are definitely the most suitable. Broadcasting at 21:00 is really not a good choice.

“Why did CCTV Children suddenly make an exception and introduce a long-completed “SpongeBob SquarePants” animation?” Lao Zhang was very curious.

“Precisely because it has been completed for a long time, the reputation and reputation are relatively stable, and it has won the recognition of audiences around the world, CCTV will make an exception to introduce it.”

Gu Miao sighed.

CCTV has always sought stability. Taking the "SpongeBob SquarePants" animation as an example, they did not introduce it when it was most popular. Instead, they waited until everything had settled down and were sure there would be no problems before introducing it.

This kind of stability operation ensures that every foreign animation they introduce is the best of the best, a masterpiece that can stand the test of time.

 But he also inadvertently persecuted Gu Miao.

How did he know that CCTV Children's Club would suddenly introduce "SpongeBob SquarePants" after half a year?

 Please!

 Although "SpongeBob SquarePants" is a work of Wanbao, how long has it been since the animation was completed? How could he have thought that an animation that had been finished for a long time would come out to compete with his new work.

  But any normal person would probably never imagine such a development.

　　It can only be said that when people are unlucky, their teeth become choked when they drink cold water. Gu Miao never dreamed that she would be attacked by a completed animation.

But then again.

Lao Zhang used the term "rare exception" to describe the introduction of "SpongeBob SquarePants" to CCTV Children's Channel. In fact, there is something wrong with it.

CCTV children’s love for Spongebob is obvious to all. This is not an exception, but inevitable.

The original version has this tendency.

Few people know that one year after the original "SpongeBob SquarePants" won the Annie Award for Best Television Animation, CCTV introduced the Mandarin dubbing version of SpongeBob SquarePants.

This is not the point. The point is that the time when the original "SpongeBob SquarePants" was broadcast on CCTV Children's Channel was actually 20:00 in the evening on January 29, the first day of the Lunar New Year!

 How much attention and optimism does this require? Needless to say, right?

 In this parallel world, CCTV Children’s Channel also decided to broadcast “SpongeBob SquarePants” on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Same time, same work, it is not difficult to see that CCTV Children’s Channel really loves the work "SpongeBob SquarePants".

 A rare exception?

 Other TV stations can be said to be an exception when introducing SpongeBob SquarePants, but for CCTV Children’s Channel, it’s hard to say...

 SpongeBob SquarePants seems to have a very special "attraction" to CCTV Children's Channel. No matter which world it is in, whether it is the original version or the Wanbao version, it will always receive preferential treatment and attention.

This made Gu Miao a little suspicious.

Is it possible that there is really something special about SpongeBob SquarePants? No one else discovered it, only CCTV Children discovered it?

 Otherwise, there is no way to explain why CCTV children like Spongebob so much!

 Happy National Day to everyone in advance!
