My Animation Era

  Chapter 620 Inheriting the Champion (for subscription)

  After the first two episodes of the animation "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel City" were broadcast, the game of dueling auto chess became popular all over the country overnight.

  Countless fans came to Wanbao official Weibo to ask, where can I play Duel Auto Chess?

  Wanbao Animation has not responded yet.

  Wanbao Game next door jumped out impatiently and said that "Duel Auto Chess" will be launched in the new version of "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Frontline", then everyone will be able to experience the original "Duel Auto Chess".

  As soon as the news came out, the number of downloads and player registrations of "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Frontline" soared instantly.

  The popularity of "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Frontline", which was originally down due to the end of the animation, single-player gameplay, and low popularity, unexpectedly has a second spring?

   This wave is true and unexpected.

  Gu Miao guessed it, Wanbao Games will not let go of such a promising gameplay as "Auto Chess", and will definitely make it into a game.

   It's just that he didn't expect that Wanbao Game's group of hairy people would move so fast...

  He hasn't taken the initiative to remind him yet, but the gang has already prepared a new version update and released a new mode of Auto Chess.

   If you say there was no premeditation, who will believe it?

   No need to think about it, you can guess that it must be Huang Kun or someone from the animation production team who leaked the rules of the game to Wanbao Games several months in advance.

   Otherwise, how can it be so fast to develop a new mode and prepare a new version of the game?

   This is not a leak.

  The mutual help between the brothers in the company will be leaked if it is leaked in advance. As long as it is not leaked to outsiders, there is no problem.

  Compared to this, Gu Miao is actually more concerned about the second season of "Pokémon", which aired yesterday afternoon, why was there no rerun?

   Strange!

  He got home too late yesterday for the Pokémon season 2 premiere. I wanted to watch the replay during the day today, but I didn't know that the program schedule of Kuka Children's Channel was full.

  He read the entire program list.

   Indeed, there is no replay. The whole morning and even the whole day, except for the live broadcast in the afternoon, the Kuka Kids Channel has no replay arrangement.

   "It's not their fault..."

  As the director, Hou Bin took the initiative to defend his partner: "Recently, Kuka Children's Channel has so many animations that it can't be finished, and there is no time to make reruns."

   "Oh? Is there such a thing?"

  When Gu Miao heard this, she immediately became interested and said, "Where did they buy the animation? We don't seem to have so many new works in China, right?"

   "Ahem!"

   "It's not a new work, it's all old foreign animation copyrights." Hou Bin coughed and explained, "A North American animation company went bankrupt, and its animation copyrights were sold at a low price, and TV stations from all over the world went to pick up cheap ones."

I see.

   Knowing the truth of the matter, Gu Miao asked a little curiously: "With so many animation copyrights, this company must be very powerful, right?"

   "Very powerful, very powerful!"

   After saying twice in succession, Hou Bin gave a thumbs up and praised: "Although the reputation is not obvious, it looks a bit like a small workshop in the eyes of ordinary people, but this company is really good."

   "The animation works they produced have won seven Oscars for Best Animated Short Film in the past 30 years."

   "Some people say that if it weren't for the company's relatively long animation production cycle, which usually takes several years to hone their swords, then they would definitely win the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film every year..."

   Seven Oscars? !

  Gu Miao was shocked! This is the first time he knows that there is such a god-level animation production company in North America.

   Now he finally understood.

  Why did this company go bankrupt, and everyone ran to find it at a low price. It turns out that this company is really powerful.

   But then again.

  Since it is so powerful, why did it fall to the point of bankruptcy? And with such a low reputation, no matter how you look at it, it's not normal, right?

   "It starts with their company's creative philosophy..."

  Hou Bin shrugged: "If we are ordinary animation producers, then they can be called old artists."

  “They make animations with the attitude of creating works of art, and this concept has also kept many investors and ordinary audiences at a distance.”

no way!

  When investors invest in you, they mainly want to make money. It's an artistic sentiment when you open your mouth, and Oscar can't be eaten as a meal, so you have to consider more realistic issues.

   Bankruptcy becomes reasonable.

  In fact, Hou Bin was quite surprised that the company had persisted for more than 30 years before declaring bankruptcy.

   "This shows that art is still appreciated, otherwise they would not be able to persist for thirty years."

  Gu Miao stroked her chin and analyzed: "Of course, the seven Oscars also have such a small amount of credit. If you don't even get an award after years of hard work, you probably went bankrupt."

   "This is the reason..."

  Hou Bin did not deny it either.

  Gu Miao's guess is indeed correct. To be able to persist for so many years, the other party's artistic attainment is indeed of a very high level. This is also a fact recognized by the entire industry.

  Unfortunately, it still fell down.

   Without external investment, the living environment of this kind of company is still too harsh.

   "It doesn't matter if the company goes bankrupt, as long as the people are still there and the core team is still there..."

   "Ah this?!"

  Hou Bin, who was quite regretful at first, was dumbfounded when he heard Mr. Gu's words.

   "Are you trying to poach people?"

   "Exactly!"

   Facing Hou Bin's tentative inquiry, Gu Miao nodded without hesitation and said, "Why don't you hire such an excellent animation production team that has won an Oscar and won an award?"

  Strength?

  Seven Oscar statuettes have fully proved the strength of the opposing team.

  As long as the price is right, why can’t this kind of team be recruited to improve the artistic attainments of Wanbao Animation?

   Looking back, people questioned Wanbao, and when asked "What champion are you? What trophy are you", Gu Miao directly replied: I, inherit the championship! Inherit the trophy!

  Who Said Oscar Cannot Be Inherited?

   Going back and buying the core team, we directly shouted that we are the champions, we are the seven-time Oscar winners!

Ok…

   This is a pure joke!

  Gu Miao is not interested in inheriting the seven Oscar statuettes, after all, it is their honor, and he has no face to announce that he will inherit the championship.

   What he thought was, since this team is known as an Oscar professional, with such high artistic attainments...

  Then, can this team meet the prerequisites for making "Tom and Jerry" and help Wanbao Animation win an Oscar statuette?

  He is not greedy, one is enough.

   After all, honor is such a thing. When I had no money and was hungry, I didn’t have time to think about it. Now that I have no worries about food and clothing, of course I want to show off and show off!

   It's just raising a team.

   To be honest, with the scale of Wanbao Animation today, it is completely affordable. This is the same as the positioning of the puppet studio, only for prizes and not expecting to make money.

"But…"

  Hou Bin hesitated: "People who come out of this kind of team will not be short of jobs, right? Are they really willing to go to a foreign country and come to Jiangchuan to work and live?"

this is a big problem.

   They are a North American team, and they are very capable. It is not difficult for them to find a job.

  Even if Wanbao offers a high salary, some people may not be willing to work in a foreign country...

   After all, others are artists!

  If they were really passionate about money, they wouldn’t get together to engage in art. To put it bluntly, relying on spending money to recruit people, in Hou Bin's view, the success rate is very low.

   "What you said makes sense."

   "But who told you that I plan to spend money on recruiting people to work in the Jiangchuan headquarters?" Gu Miao asked back.

  Hou Bin: "???"

  If you don’t come to Jiangchuan, where else can you go?

  Going to work in the Neon branch seems to be similar to the Jiangchuan headquarters. For these North American foreigners, Huaguo and Neon are very far away.

  "I build a branch in North America and let them work in a familiar environment, isn't it okay?"

  Gu Miao said firmly: "I don't believe that they can remain indifferent when this sincerity is in front of them."

  Move with emotion and understand with reason.

   Gu Miao can not only promise enough funds, but also won't suppress their artistic talents, and is more willing to establish a branch in North America. This condition should be regarded as the best choice.

   There is no reason not to choose Wanbao.

   Let’s watch and cherish, I don’t know when I’ll be a sheep. With my physique, I’m afraid I’ll have to change it…
