My Animation Era

  Chapter 939 Kyoani and Ice Fruit

  Life is impermanent, the large intestine wraps the small intestine.

  Gu Miao has experienced many ups and downs in his life, but this is the first time he has seen something as exciting as the stock market.

  Wanbao Video, which had just hit the bell in Xiangjiang, was listed on the front foot. Within two days, the stock price fell below the issue price, which dealt a heavy blow to the majority of investors.

   Among them is Mr. Bear.

   "No? It's only been listed for a few days?" Mr. Xiong said on the phone angrily.

  He was really angry. Originally, his good brother’s company went public. With the idea of ​​supporting his good brother, he used his private money to buy some stocks.

   As a result, no one expected that the stock price of Wanbao Video, a pitiful company, had fallen below the issue price less than a week after its listing, and his private money had shrunk a lot in one fell swoop.

   Gu Sanshui really deserves to die!

   "Ahem, what do you mean by that sentence? Investment is risky, and you need to be cautious when entering the market!"

  Gu Miao said very confidently: "I didn't force you to buy it, so you can blame me if you lose money?"

  Mr. Bear: "..."

  Faced with such rogue claims, what else can he do? It can only be said that luckily they bought less, if they really believed Gu Maggot's bewitchment and spent huge sums of money to win a seat on the board of directors, they would be green-faced now!

"OK OK…"

   After all, he is a good buddy, and Gu Miao couldn't bear to see him sad, so she comforted him: "If you want to be more open, the stock market will go up and down, and Mr. Tan holds more shares than you and didn't say anything. What are you in a hurry for?"

  Can the properties be the same?

   Mr. Tan took the original stock which was much lower than the issue price, but he bought the tradable stock.

   President Xiong, who was too lazy to argue with Gu Miao about the difference between the two, simply changed the subject and said, "Don't talk about that, I have something to ask you for a favor..."

  Mr. Xiong previously acquired an animation production company in Neon, and was responsible for producing some lily and rotten animations with a relatively high concentration of two-dimensional elements.

   But he's been having trouble lately.

  The company he acquired, due to management negligence, had a serious fire accident not long ago, a large number of equipment and materials were destroyed, and some employees were injured.

   Several animations that are being serialized and updated are facing the risk of "stop broadcasting".

   "You know the situation at Neon. Most of the animations are broadcast on a weekly basis. Next week's film has to be produced this week, but now there is a serious shortage of manpower and equipment."

  Office space can be found again, and equipment can also be temporarily purchased, but injured employees will not be able to rush back to work from the hospital for a while.

  So, Mr. Xiong wanted to borrow some people from the Wanbao Animation (Neon) branch, so as to survive this period of time.

   Of course, this is not gratuitous.

  Xiaoxiong is not short of money, and promised to give Wanbao a good labor dispatch fee. As long as he is willing to borrow someone, the money matter is easy to talk about.

   "As a family, talking about money hurts feelings."

  Gu Miao couldn't do the thing of taking advantage of the fire to rob. After learning about the difficulties Mr. Xiong encountered, he immediately assigned Seto and Nishio to arrange people to help, without charging any fees.

   This friendship is still there.

  Both Jiangchuan fellows, and have known each other for so many years, if Gu Miao doesn't even do this little favor, but still charges money, it would be too snobbish.

   But when it comes to fire, Gu Miao immediately thinks of Jingani, who also encountered arson in her previous life.

  It can't be such a coincidence, can it?

   Could it be that the neon animation company that Mr. Bear bought is the parallel world version of KyoAni?

  After careful questioning, Gu Miao breathed a sigh of relief. The animation company Mr. Xiong bought was not large, and it couldn't be a big company like JingAni.

   But the problem also came.

  According to Mr. Xiong, although he has never heard of KyoAni's name, he has heard of an animation called "Hyogo".

   "What? Where did you hear that?"

   "The employees of my company mentioned that it seems to be an animation that has just started broadcasting, and the response is quite good..."

  This clue is too important.

  After getting the clue from Mr. Xiong, Gu Miao hurriedly hung up the phone, and then contacted Seto to ask Neon if there was an animation called "Bingguo" broadcasting recently?

  Seto didn't seem to know.

   This is also normal. After all, the neon animation industry is extremely developed. There are hundreds of thousands of animations broadcast in a year. How can he have time to watch them all?

  However, Mr. Gu, who is thousands of miles away, personally called to inquire, which is enough to prove the extraordinaryness of the animation "Bingguo".

  So after receiving the instructions, Seto quickly checked the list of new September shows on the Internet.

  The list is not long, and soon Seto saw the work "Hyoka" in an obscure corner, as well as the Chiba TV station where the animation premiered.

  As a well-known animation company, Seto has all the neon lights here, and even the contact information of many European and American TV stations, and Chiba TV Station naturally has it.

   "What..."

   "Kyoani studio? Arigado Sato-san!"

  After inquiring about the general situation of the animation and the name of the production company from Chiba TV Station, Seto didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly returned a message to Mr. Gu.

   "Kyoani?!"

  Gu Miao frowned.

  According to what Seto heard, this animation studio named Kyoani was originally just a small team specialized in accepting animation outsourcing orders.

  Only started to set foot in the field of original animation two years ago, and has the ability to independently produce an animation work, and "Hingguo" is an animation they adapted from a light novel.

   Interesting!

  Gu Miao has already watched the first two episodes of the "Bingguo" animation through the Internet. As expected, this is the "I'm Curious" animation in his memory.

   Never expected that without the appearance of Kyoani, this parallel world would have such a magical studio as Kyoani.

  Although the other party is still a relatively immature grass-roots team compared to Wanbao, it has to be said that Gu Miao has developed a great interest in Kyoani Studio.

  If possible, he would like Seto to talk to the other party to see if he can be brought under his command and become a subsidiary studio of Wanbao Neon Division.

What?

   Is it worth it?

  Do you still need to consider this question? Even if this Kyoani studio isn't Kyoani, and doesn't have the potential to become the second Kyoani, Gu Miao thinks it's worth it just because of the "Bingguo" animation.

   After all, this is "Bingguo"! The word-of-mouth work of the former KyoAni, one of the representatives of the two-dimensional classic campus animation...

  Chitanda Eru!

   This name may be very unfamiliar to those born in the 00s, but for those born in the 90s and 80s, this name means "wife".

  The influence of this animation is beyond doubt. For Chitanda Eru's wife, Gu Miao feels that Kyoani Studio can be bought with money.

   After all, the current "Bingguo" animation has just started broadcasting, and Kyoani Studio has not yet become famous.

   It will be hard to say after a while!

   I would like to ask everyone, would you borrow money from classmates who had a good relationship when you were studying but didn’t get along well after graduation?
