The Strongest Animator [Rebirth]

Is the era of traffic supremacy really over?

It's actually hard to say.

It may be said that the era when traffic is king is over, but the influence of traffic stars still exists, but it is not as eye-catching as before; the era when quality is king has not yet come, but the facts before everyone are ——Works with high word-of-mouth may not be able to get high box office returns, but all works that can get high returns must be masterpieces in the true sense.

The audience's feelings about this may not be that deep.

But for all those who are related to the entertainment industry, this feeling is obviously much more obvious:

Several projects that were also planning to use the combination of popular IP + popular traffic have announced that they will be put on hold for the time being, and the ones that have already finished filming are carefully choosing a suitable schedule, for fear that it will be like "Ten Miles of Spring Breeze Is Not as Good as You", which will arouse the disgust of the public audience.

When the usual routines become useless, or even cause losses in turn, the capital that cannot achieve leek cutting by this will naturally hesitate or even stop.

Among countless film and television companies, the one that was most affected by this was Yunsu.

"...To sum up, it will not be a wise move to invest in movies for a long time to come. Therefore, I suggest that all high-cost large-scale productions be suspended until the market situation becomes clearer." Located in In a conference room at Yunsu headquarters, the department manager in charge of Yunsu Film and Television said so.

There was a moment of silence in the meeting room.

President Yunsu, who was sitting at the top, nodded calmly: "I see." He didn't seem particularly worried.

This is the benefit of the Group's integration of multiple fields.

For companies that focus on film and television production, any change in the direction of the entertainment industry may cause the company itself to suffer huge losses, or it may have to consider the possibility of transformation, and any company that cannot adapt to this change will often lose In an instant, it was eliminated by the market.

Yunsu Group is not under such a great pressure.

Changes in the film and television industry will certainly cause the largest Yunsu to suffer the most losses and become passive.But also because the family is big and the business is big, even if there are some unexpected changes in a certain industry involved in Yunsu, it will not be a trouble of life and death.

As long as other industries are still normal, Yunsu can stand firm.

Therefore, after a brief exchange of the situation of the film and television industry and the strategies that Yunsu Group needs to adopt, the focus of the meeting quickly shifted to the next topic: "What does Happy Land say? From last year to now, We’ve been talking for several months, so it’s not like there’s still no progress at all, right?”

Paradise is the name of Bluestar's largest tourism group with the most chain theme parks.

As early as when Yunsu Group first tried to enter the animation industry, the two parties had already started contacting, but there was no progress in the middle. Later, the plan to snipe Huaying came to an abrupt end, but the negotiation between Yunsu Group and Paradise Tourism Group was always at a standstill. A stalemate.

"There are already signs of loosening in the happy land, but the specific terms need to be further discussed." Another person replied.

That's good news.

Hearing this, Yunsu President looked slightly relieved, nodded and said: "Yes, continue to follow up. The theme park will be the top priority of the company's future plans. The sooner we acquire the park, the more convenient our future planning and development will be."

"Yes."

……

The negotiation between Yunsu Group and Happy Land Group is not a secret.

In fact, as early as a few months ago, when some media reported various trends of Yunsu Group, they mentioned the M&A negotiations with Leland Group. It was even more powerful, which was ignored by everyone.

Right now, as the film and television industry gradually calms down, the eyes of interested people will naturally return to this very likely event.

Reactions to Yunsu Group's attempt to acquire Paradise Group have been mixed.

Netizens who eat melons don't feel much about this. At most, they feel that Yunsu crossed the border again, and this matter is over.For ordinary people, as long as the theme park is still there and the ticket price does not increase, it doesn't really matter who the specific operating company is.

Some people in the industry related to it are imagining this:

Ever since "The Chamber of Secrets of Harry Potter" successfully emerged from the siege, Huaying and Yunsu, as if nothing had happened, naturally restored the peace of the past, and continued their respective lives independently of each other. s project.If Gareth, the vice president who made the plan to encircle and suppress Huaying, was not transferred to the branch, everyone would have thought that the encirclement and suppression was just a dream in their trance.

But is it really that simple?

Seeing that the distance between Yunsu Group and Paradise Group is getting closer, and the entertainment projects of Huaying Theme Park have been completed one after another, it is hard to feel that Yunsu Group has not intentionally Ideas for shadow animation.

The opinion that Yunsu suppressed Huaying became very popular for a while.

"Against us?"

Facing Wen Feihang's serious reasoning and guessing, Shepherd Xing couldn't help but laugh.While turning the pen in his hand, he smiled and shook his head: "No."

"why?"

Shepherd Xing did not directly answer his question, but asked another question that was quite old: "Do you still remember the time when we just left school and bought Mu Xingxue's Rose animation?"

Fang Lian nodded: "I remember, but why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

"You may not believe it when you say it." Thinking of the years ago, the shepherd star himself felt a little bit emotional: "In fact, as early as that time, I told myself that what I want to build is not just a well-made animation company, but also personally create an ACG holy land that exists only for Two-dimensional.”

"There should be the same style of clothing for the anime characters, some are mouth-watering, you can find the same style of snacks in the video animation, there are various styles of special buildings that should only exist in animation, and there are animations based on animation. , game-themed entertainment facilities, and the world's largest fan exhibition feast..."

Wen Feihang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled unconsciously.

If it was a few years ago, he might still have doubts about the authenticity of Mu Su Xing's words, but today, this plan and dream that seemed whimsical back then seems to be within reach for Huaying today. And true.

Fang Lian nodded slightly.

He seemed to know what the pastor wanted to say.

as predicted.

Mu Suxing didn't intend to bring everyone together to recall the past. After briefly explaining his original thoughts, Mu Suxing quickly brought the topic back to the topic: "The ACG Holy Land I'm talking about is, to put it bluntly, It is a huge physical business circle, and it is also the only way for all entertainment companies to be the biggest."

"Yunsu didn't mean to deliberately target us." Shepherd Xing said word by word: "We are not a rising star that he wants to suppress, but a competitor who is on an equal footing with it and competes for the market."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then a thoughtful expression soon appeared on their faces.

Yes.

A year ago, Huaying Animation wanted to be the opponent of Yunsu Group. It might be a dream. On the basis of Huaying, who can say that Huaying is not qualified to be Yunsu's opponent?

Today, the relationship between Yunsu and Huaying is no longer that of suppressing and being suppressed, but a purely competitive relationship.

Whether Yunsu wants to target Huaying or not, it is actually irrelevant to Huaying—because the relationship between Huaying and Yunsu has been established since Huayingzhi built a comprehensive ACG holy place. It's natural competition and confrontation. In this case, it would be too petty to talk about targeting.

Seeing that everyone was silent and thoughtful, Mu Su Xing nodded secretly.

The most difficult time has passed. For Huaying, there will only be a brighter and better future in the future, and this process itself will not even come too slowly.Under such circumstances, as the high-level executives of Huaying, they must change their instinctive thinking of themselves as weak, and replace them with the strong thinking that matches the current status of Huaying animation.

Seeing that everyone was gradually realizing, Mu Xing didn't say any more.

In early May, with a box office of 42.9 billion, "Your Lie in April" was officially released.Shepherd Star also returned to his office and began to consider the work plan for the next stage.

First is the movie.

There is definitely no need to consider the summer file, as the current Huaying does not have the manpower to start the production of three animation films at the same time.Considering the Detective Conan theatrical version at the end of this year, and the sequel to the Harry Potter series that will be released on a fixed Lunar New Year schedule, there is no need to compete for this year's summer schedule.

You can ignore the comics for the time being.

Not long ago, after he casually mentioned a few themes such as Unlimited Stream, which will be more popular in the future, the comic authors under Huaying Comics were immediately inspired by the new themes. The comic authors signed by Huaying are originally The most talented group, with the advice of Shepherd Xing, did not need him to provide additional scripts, and interesting comics came out one by one naturally.

After comics, it is naturally games.

Mu Suxing thought for a while, and called his assistant: "Go and inform the planning of the game department, just say that I have a few game plans, and I want to chat with him in detail. If you have time, go down today."

As for the animation...

Mu Suxing thought for a while, and said, "Go and inform all the supervisors of the animation department, and say that I will see you at the old place in 10 minutes."

10 minute later.

With a stack of documents freshly released from the printing room, Shepherd Xing once again stood in front of the door that he has been most familiar with over the years.

The meeting room itself is not very big. It is not so much a high-level meeting, but it is actually more like a few young people who have been together since the beginning of the filming. a special place.Once the shepherd star proposes to use this place as a meeting point, it usually means that the shepherd star has a new and most interesting animation project, which is ready to be introduced to everyone.

"I don't know what the theme of this animation will be." Fang Lian said curiously.

"Will it be a sports theme? Sports animation seems to have become more and more popular in the past six months. I think we can definitely consider making persistent efforts and making something like basketball or football."

"I heard from Du Zhu that the boss seems to have brought over more than one animation project this time."

"Is it another series?"

Everyone guessed at will.

No one knew that in the following 15 years, the two animations, which were hailed by everyone in Blue Star as "Double Walls of Painting and Shadow", were revealed to this strange world in such an ordinary and extraordinary meeting. Out of the tip of the iceberg it floated on the sea.

At this moment, everyone in Huaying was just as usual. When they got the proposal, they naturally and proficiently read the name of the new project in front of them——

"One Piece?"/"Naruto?"
