Best wishes for animation production

During this time, Lyons was very annoyed.

He is not a fool.

Although John, his friend and subordinate, had been looking at him as if he were a fool ever since he said, 'Am I being cheated?'

But he is really not a fool!

After discovering something was wrong, he immediately cheered up and checked 3.C PICTURE thoroughly.

The situation he found out in the end was a little better than he imagined...

3. Although C PICTURE lied to him, it did not tell him the current situation of the company.

But 3.C PICTURE has indeed been brilliant, and it is indeed one of the most well-known animation production companies in Huaya.

...at least it used to be.

At the end of the last century, in the golden age, there was no such thing as a production committee in the industry, and animation production companies didn't have to worry about money at all. As long as the animation was produced, there would be money.

3.C PICTURE was established in this era. This company caught the tail of that era. In that dreamy and crazy era, this company gathered a bunch of big guys and a group of talented young people. rise rapidly.

But the good times did not last long. With the era of bubble economy, all illusions were shattered. In the context of the Great Depression, no one was spared.

In order to share risks, the production committee emerged, and 3.C PICTURE, which was full of talents, began to lay off employees. With a big cut, not only the talent was lost, but the enthusiasm of 3.C PICTURE also seemed to have been cut off. The company languished until the beginning of this century. Didn't even get over it.

But God still favored this company. When 3.C PICTURE was on the verge of bankruptcy, the few young people in the company who survived the layoffs and entered middle age stood up. Under the leadership of outstanding people, they relied on limited resources and during that time, relied on love and passion to produce many excellent works.

This batch of excellent works not only helped 3.C PICTURE survive the difficult times, but also made the company a holy place in the hearts of animation fans at that time. Applicants who wanted to work in the animation industry also regarded this company as the best choose.

God rewards those who work hard. These middle-aged and talented ‘young people’ worked hard to help the company survive, and they were rewarded.

The time for light revision has come.

Kei Narita emerged from the era of light modification.

He has not experienced the glory of 3.C PICTURE, nor has he accompanied 3.C PICTURE through its most difficult years, but he is very lucky.

As soon as he joined 3.C PICTURE, his ability was appreciated and he served as the deputy supervisor of a certain animation. In the second year, when everyone was not optimistic about a project with many heroines, he persuaded the company directors and made a decisive decision. Next.

Then, he succeeded.

The one he was responsible for, a harem animation adapted from a light novel with many heroines, became the annual hegemony that year.

In that era when everyone was shy and had not seen much of the world, he became the best supervisor in many people's minds. At the same time, the directors of 3.C PICTURE also regarded him as the best supervisor.

No reason, it’s very simple, make money.

3.C PICTURE made a lot of money that year.

Resources began to lean towards Kei Narita, the new supervisor, and Kei Narita lived up to expectations. I carefully selected a light novel, and the next year, 3.C PICTURE once again made a lot of money.

Then, almost all the company's resources were given to Narita Kai.

No reason, it’s very simple, make money.

When the third project was successful, Narita Kei felt that he was invincible, so he went to the president of 3.C PICTURE at the time and talked for an entire afternoon. No one knew what they talked about. People in the company only knew, The next day Kei Narita became the director of the company and was responsible for company planning.

Then, what happened was simple.

In the past, Narita Kei was able to make money and the company's resources were tilted towards him. No one could change it, at most they could say a few words secretly.

Those who carried 3.C PICTURE out of the predicament had no choice. They could only rely on the limited resources they squeezed out, their love and passion, and make the animation they wanted to do while helping Narita Kei draw the harem.

But this matter disappeared as soon as Narita Kei came to power.

The former wage earners became directors, and their thinking changed.

Without any hesitation, Narita Kei directly rejected all the projects that he felt were not profitable and had no use at all.

And what he did directly led to the outbreak of resentments and conflicts.

The group of people who carried 3.C PICTURE out of the predicament, those seniors of Narita Kei, came to oppose Narita Kei, and the conflict intensified.

Until the president who can make the final decision takes action... and chooses to side with Kei Narita.

The president is enjoying the benefits brought by Kei Narita. He is not even willing to do Tai Chi or clay mud, so he clearly sides with Kei Narita. He seems to have forgotten the bleak situation of 3.C PICTURE in the past few years, and has also forgotten that In order to help the company survive, a large number of people abandoned the people who had contributed to the company's survival in the past few years.

This move hurt the hearts of a lot of animators who outsiders thought were gods.

Huge gap.

The hard work leads to such results.

Not many people can stand it.

Those old people who spent their youth in 3.C PICTURE and were about to go to work for the fifth grade were disheartened and left completely.

3.C PICTURE has completely become Narita Kei’s idiom.

but.

There is no good reincarnation of the heavenly way that we like to hear and see.

Not only was Narita Kei unaffected by the old man's departure, he became even more at home. There are no more old people who care about the painting, and there are no more old people who are good at painting but slow. There is no need to pursue quality, only quantity.

Narita Kei enjoys the bonus of making money while lying down.

Being able to make money and chasing capital gave him more and more say in 3.C PICTURE, but all the directors of 3.C PICTURE were happy with it.

This situation continues until the market direction changes.

More and more companies are following suit.

The big brother 3.C PICTUREs in this genre have lost their shackles, and their quality has steadily declined. The audience is tired of the same light modifications.

Although 3.C PICTURE and Narita Kei did not immediately fall from the altar, they are in danger.

Kei Narita knows better than anyone that he has struggled when the wind direction has changed.

"Falling Feather", one of the top comics of the year, had an extremely ugly collapse in the last episode, making all efforts in vain.

But as the instigator, Narita Kei passed the blame to an unknown production company, and took it out of himself, completely...

The failure of "Falling Feathers" was a turning point. This failure of 3.C PICTURE offended one of the best publishers in the industry. This was a very heavy price. Since then, the halo of 3.C PICTURE has no longer been there. In the past, the audience was most ignorant. My favorite animation company suddenly produces very few excellent works.

And even if there are excellent works produced, they are short-lived. Most of them are produced by new supervisors, and they will leave 3.C PICTURE after basically completing them.

The reason why this happens is that over the years, Narita Kei has become a schoolboy in 3.C PICTURE...

In this kind of environment, it is difficult for ambitious people to stay.

This is the current situation of 3.C PICTURE.

This company still has some background. After all, it is an old company for so many years. It is very big and many people join this company because of its reputation. But what is strange is that their creative echelon, especially the supervision, is completely broken. Yes, he will leave as soon as a new supervisor appears. Many viewers who know the inside story will jokingly call this company a talent conveyor.

It’s just that the talents from this company are not very willing to mention their old club...

After Lyons carefully investigated 3.C PICTURE.

A mixed blessing.

The good news is that 3.C PICTURE is not the kind of garbage company that just cheats someone and runs away. It still has some background. It can definitely produce animations, and in theory it can be done well...

As for the various choices made on the way to the rise of this company, such as driving away old heroes and so on, Lyons, an American who does not know much about the animation production industry, has no thoughts.

This kind of thing...isn't it normal...

Worryingly, Lyons keenly felt that he had indeed been deceived. 3.C PICTURE was not as calm as it appeared at all. The reason why 3.C PICTURE asked him to invest in this project was completely the same. Just like YUKI Studio, they just want to fight to the death and try to save themselves. Because 3.C PICTURE hasn’t released a memorable work for a long time.

This was annoying and made Lyons very angry.

In addition, there is one more thing.

During the investigation of 3.C PICTURE, Lyons learned that the companion who stood next to Gu Xue when she lost her temper that day was named Chisa Mihara, and also learned about her experience of working at 3.C PICTURE.

Lyons understood why Gu Xue cursed that day, and at the same time discovered something that Gu Xue didn't know yet.

Most of the animators who left 3.C PICTURE were almost in their twenties. They did not get together, but they each made waves in the industry. They were a group of very famous and powerful old troublemakers.

At that time, Chisa Mihara worked at 3.C PICTURE. When 3.C PICTURE was working on the final episodes of "Falling Feathers", Chisa Mihara visited the people who had left 3.C PICTURE one by one, but these people had no interest in Narita. Kei was prejudiced. Although he met Chisa Mihara, when he heard it was Kei Narita, no one was willing to help.

Afterwards, the collapse incident broke out in the last episode of "Beautiful Feather", and Chisa Mihara became the scapegoat. Because of this incident, there was quite a big fuss, and Kei Narita was completely dismissed, but these people who ran away were not fools.

At that time, a large number of heroes who left 3.C PICTURE complained about Narita Kei on Twitter, and also expressed their apologies to Chisa Mihara.
