please stop making anime

Chapter 203 Tanabata Festival

What to choose?I want it all!

Zhao Ran can't figure it out, these netizens are actually discussing on the Internet which elf will be with the protagonist in the end, really, they don't even think about it, think about it, if they are the protagonist, they will choose to be the protagonist. Give away the girl you worked so hard to save?

Zhao Ran is a god of pure love, so he is determined not to be a tauren!

It is probably because the audience has adapted to the social marriage system of monogamy. If this anime was set more than 100 years ago, the men at that time would definitely say, I want it all!
Those who have compatible personalities are better off, but those who don’t have compatible personalities will directly become enemies. When the marriage reaches that stage, instead of just getting along with a partner, it’s better to start a new life happily.

"President, it's almost Qixi Festival." Li Xuan said from the side.

When he heard about Qixi Festival, Zhao Ran suddenly felt a headache. Really, why are there so many festivals?What's more, these festivals are like having a grudge against me, a single dog!
In this modern age, as long as you are single, you will not enjoy every holiday except Ching Ming Festival. Valentine’s Day and Qixi Festival, young couples go out to watch movies, National Day holidays, young couples go on a trip, and it’s even obvious that you should live alone as a bachelor. Even the Double Eleven Singles' Day was preempted by those couples.

Capitalists are really smelly cats. As long as they can see any business opportunities, they will fool the public and make customers buy their own products.

"Is it Qixi Festival? Do we want to promote a plastic flower in our festival club? May those young lovers break up soon?" Zhao Ran said with a dark belly while rubbing his chin.

Selling flowers on the Qixi Festival is indeed a good idea. You can push a few flowers that are suitable for breaking up on Pinxixi, so that those young couples can buy them.

"I mean, we can show an animation movie on Qixi Festival!" Li Xuan said from the side.

If Zhao Ran can push an animation movie on the Qixi Festival, the money earned at the box office will be soft.

"Do you think I don't know that Qixi Festival can pick up money? Look at the schedules of the Festival Society and Jingani, where there is time to make animation movies, and the time is too urgent, even the Festival Society and Jingani will go first Putting down the work in hand to make an animation film may not be able to be produced before the Qixi Festival." Zhao Ran sighed.

The time is too tight, and there is no time to make such an animation movie. Zhao Ran does have a lot of animations suitable for the Qixi Festival in his mind, such as "Your Name" and so on.

If you choose to shoddy, it is better not to make such a work, which will not only ruin the reputation, but also ruin the work.

"The production of animation is indeed relatively slow, but ah, if the team is good at making movies, the movie can be finished before the Qixi Festival. We focus on animation production. The advantage of this is that our movies are not qualified. Give us a high score for the sake of our excellent animation, and it will not affect our reputation of animation production at all!" Li Xuan said with a smile.

Jie Cao Club has so many big IPs, just come and shoot a shoddy movie that is enough to cope with the Qixi Festival. Moreover, even if the word of mouth is not good, the audience will at most complain that Jie Cao Club can’t make movies, and persuade Jie Cao Club to do their job well. It won't have any effect on the anime.

Although the film has a relatively high artistic content, if you choose to make a crude film, you can still complete a film in one to two months or even seven or eight days. When the film industry in Hong Kong was the most prosperous, those crews made films like crazy. A movie can be made in one or two months, even some powerful teams can make a qualified movie in seven or eight days.

"It's really a good idea to make a movie." Zhao Ran thought about it, and felt that it was feasible. Li Xuan already has the ability to make qualified movies after several movies. It should be able to be completed before the festival, and with his fame and big ip, there is no big problem with saving money at the box office, and maybe it will explode at the box office.

However, you need to think carefully about what kind of movie to make. Now, among all the animation IPs of Jie Caoshe, only "Love You in Vain" and "Five Centimeters Per Second" are about love, and the anime "Love You in Vain" is obviously not It is suitable to be made into a movie, so should the important task of Qixi Festival be handed over to "[-] Centimeters Per Second"?

Is it really good to overconsume "[-] Centimeters Per Second"?
"I guess the president must be thinking about [-] centimeters per second. In fact, I also think that the Qixi Festival and Second Five are a perfect match!" Li Xuan explained: "This anime is so famous! Who in the two-dimensional world has never watched Second Five! "

"I was scolded miserably because of Second Five. Besides, remakes don't make money." Zhao Ran thought for a while, and didn't agree with choosing Second Five's anime. It wasn't because he was afraid of blades, but because Zhao Ran I understand in my heart that Pai Miao Wu does not make money.

Except for those particularly classic movies in this world, there has never been a second-release movie that can make money in the rest of the world. Generally, movies are released once, because the second release will definitely hit the box office.

It’s real money, and viewers don’t want to watch it a second time after watching it, and now that there is an anime version of Second Five on the platform, who would go to the cinema to spend money to watch a crude movie version?

If the Festival Club remakes Second Five, it will be worse than fried rice, and it's no wonder the audience doesn't scold it for being miserable.

"In addition to the plot of the movie, the publicity must also be in place. Generally, the second release of the movie does not make money, but there are many remakes of movies that make money! I know that the director is worried that [-] Centimeters per Second will be made into a movie. What is the viewer’s aesthetic fatigue? We can publicize that the content has been changed. It’s not the same as the animation version of [-] Centimeters per Second. The previous martial arts novels have been remade so many times, and the audience still buys it. Second [-] is such a classic. The audience will definitely be very interested in the live-action version of this animation!" Li Xuan explained that she knew more about the film industry than Zhao Ran.

The most important thing in filmmaking is publicity, especially those commercial films. As long as the publicity is in place, the leading actors are well-known and have good acting skills, and the script is good, then the box office of this film will not be too bad.

"We can find an actor who can handle the box office!" Li Xuan looked at Zhao Ran with a serious expression: "The big-name actors are too expensive, and the acting skills of those actors who are not well-known are too poor, and I don't think they can handle the box office if they are not famous." After much deliberation, I think you, the president, are the most suitable."

"what?"

Zhao Ran was stunned, and ran over to act by himself?This is too dishonest!Moreover, do you carry the box office by yourself?Aren't those movie actors all based on tens of billions of box office?Now I have zero box office!How does this count as a box office hit?
Even if I have enough traffic now, so what?Haven't you seen those traffic stars who entered the movie industry because the movies they made were unqualified and then were returned by the movie industry?
Having traffic does not mean that you can carry the box office!

"President, don't be unconfident in yourself! You have to believe in yourself. With just your face, countless fans will pay for you." Li Xuan said.

"I know that I am quite famous on the Internet, and I have a lot of traffic, but just because I have traffic doesn't mean I can handle the box office! It's two different things. You haven't seen those traffic stars who are not popular now, and they have entered the film industry to make a movie. Was it just returned? Now those fans are very rational, and they are no longer what they used to be.” Times have changed, Li Xuan!
"President, you are different from them. Those traffic stars can be seen every day on video platforms or variety shows. Their faces have long been annoying to the audience! How can the audience pay for them! There are free You can see them on the video platform, so how can you choose to pay to watch them? And the president, you don’t leave the door every day, and the audience doesn’t see you once in a few months. You say, when they listen to Saying that you are making a movie, will fans who haven’t seen your face for several months be crazy?” Li Xuan analyzed with Zhao Ran.

Zhao Ran felt that what Li Xuan said had a grain of truth. It was true that he hadn't shown up for a long time. Moreover, it was his first time making a movie. Those fans who especially liked to see him make a fool of himself would be very excited, right?

The way Zhao Ran gets along with his fans is very strange. Zhao Ran tried every means to trick them, and those fans would always dig out all kinds of dirty things about Zhao Ran and then taunt them crazily, but when the critical moment came, they would firmly stand by Zhao Ran’s side Protect him and say good things to him.

Moreover, Zhao Ran is indeed different from those traffic stars. Most of those traffic stars became popular for no reason, and then fell silent inexplicably. Zhao Ran is the popularity of one good work after another. Can not be compared.

So, to shoot or not to shoot?
I always feel like I’m not doing my job properly when I’m shooting, since I’m obviously focusing on animation.Why did you go to make a movie out of nowhere?
"President, don't worry about your own animation career. This "[-] Centimeters Per Second" live-action movie is considered an animation product, right? If there is no animation version of [-] Centimeters Per Second, how can there be a live-action movie?" Li Xuan seemed to see that After getting rid of the entanglement in Zhao Ran's heart, he persuaded him.

That's right, anime always needs to be adapted, even if Zhao Ran doesn't play in person, Zhao Ran will find someone to remake his own work in the future.

"Well. Who should I partner with?" Zhao Ran asked after thinking for a moment.

"For our self-made movies, we must find our own people. I or Li Tong can do it. They are cheap and easy to use. Other actors are too expensive. Our self-made movies can be played in friendship, but both me and Li Tong have been very supportive recently. I'm busy, I'll find an amateur to partner with you, President." Li Xuan said with a smile.

After staying with Zhao Ran for a long time, he has long regarded the Jie Cao Club as his own home, and Zhao Ran is also generous. Both the Jie Cao Club and Jingani have Li Xuan's shares.

As for amateurs, they are also members of the Jie Cao Club. Li Xuan thought about cultivating a few qualified actors for the Jie Cao Club. In the future, when his company remakes animations, it can directly use its own people.

Amateurs are cheap and easy to train, those actors are too tactful, and the asking price is high, Li Xuan didn't want to pay such a waste of money.

There is no shortage of traffic and good works in the Festival Society, so why find an ancestor who is difficult to serve?Isn't it good to use your own people?

Are you an amateur from the Festival Club?It really has Li Xuan's consistent style.
It's just that there are so many beauties in the festival club, who is he partnering with?Zhao Ran couldn't guess who the heroine was for a while.

"President, sign the contract."

Li Xuan seemed to have been prepared, and handed a contract to Zhao Ran with a smile.

"There is still a contract?!"

"Isn't that necessary? President, you are so arrogant, what if you quit when I'm making a movie?" Li Xuan put the contract on the table: "President, remember to read it carefully! "

"No need, I believe in you. I don't want to be like you. I don't even trust my president! It's so chilling!" Zhao Ran curled his lips. Is he so difficult to serve?He even listed a contract for himself?
Moreover, have you been prepared for this girl?Spy on my body a long time ago, trying to make me make a movie?This contract has obviously been prepared long ago!

Zhao Ran picked up a brush and wrote his name on it and handed it to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan carefully put the contract into the folder, Zhao Ran's eyes twitched at that action, there is no problem with this contract, right? !
No way.
Shouldn't I trust Li Xuan so much? !What if she embezzles my property?
I managed to earn so much money
"It's not embezzlement." Li Xuan glanced at Zhao Ran who was nervous and said with a smile.

She seemed to see Zhao Ran's little thoughts.

"Compared with property, I am more curious about another thing!"

"kindness?"

"President, don't you know that your facial features are very correct?"

Isn't that true?There are too many people boasting, Zhao Ran is already numb, but what does this have to do with making movies?
It is indeed Zhao Ran's first time making a movie, but Zhao Ran has a system. In order to make this movie, Zhao Ran frantically added points to his acting skills.

After spending a lot of prestige points, I finally reached the level of a qualified actor. This level is not a big problem for this movie. As long as I don't compete with my opponent, then the movie I made should be watchable.

Zhao Ran didn't put too much energy into the matter of movies, so let's relax as if making animation is too tiring.

It’s best to make money at the box office, if you can’t make money, take it as an interesting experience. In his previous life, Zhao Ran also had a dream of being an actor. He longed for his young face to be engraved on the film, so that when he was old, he could also talk to his grandson. Show off how handsome his grandfather was when he was young.

Then he said to his grandson that he hated iron and steel, that his appearance did not inherit a single bit of his own advantages, and his appearance was far behind his ancestors.
