The Strongest Animator [Rebirth]

The fans were dumbfounded.

That's it? That's it?

The Yunsu Theme Park next door, even the refurbishment projects and general plans, are neatly listed. The concept map in the preview is even more beautiful. It matches the entertainment facilities of the predecessor Paradise Theme Park itself. It's no exaggeration to say that Wang Zhan once made it, but what about Huaying?

Didn't Hogwarts Castle and the Witch's House Haunted House start to be announced more than half a year ago?You guys made a little noise to let us see!

Seeing that the Yunsu Group has started to publicize with great fanfare, the fans of Huaying couldn't sit still. They all gathered under the Weibo of the animation preview, and protested in the comment area:

"Will I really have a chance to see a real-life Hogwarts castle this year? [humble]"

"What about the theme park? Even if all the facilities are not fully completed, it's fine to send some photos of the scenes that have already been completed, or simply spoil one or two highlights of the gameplay. It's such a big company, can you Can't be more mature, don't always do self-closing research and development?"

"Cub, you can grow up."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. It looks good, but let’s take a look at the theme park, you can’t just watch so much investment go in vain, can you?”

This is the career fan who hates iron but not steel.

Compared with the career fans who were ignited by Yunsu's actions and had begun to worry in advance that Huaying Theme Park would be overwhelmed by Yunsu Theme Park, animation fans seemed much more innocent. After watching the preview of "One Piece", their attention immediately shifted away from Yunsu Theme Park, and turned to the two upcoming feature-length animations.

"Ninja? Pirate?"

"Blue Star doesn't seem to have any anime about ninjas and pirates so far, right? Looking at the preview given by Huaying, it seems to be a long-lost anime about fighting young people? I don't know what kind of story it will be. The most recent routine animations are all Tired of watching, I hope Huaying's new theme can bring some surprises!"

"I'm tired of watching +1, looking forward to Huaying's new work!"

"It's so confusing. In fact, I really like the current rhythm of Huaying. After all, the main business is animation, so I should focus on animation production. There is no movement at all, and I don't know what Xing Xing is thinking..."

It's not just a heated discussion among netizens.

With the fanfare of the Yunsu Group and the indifference of Huaying Animation, the same doubts also occurred inside Huaying Animation.

Mu Xingxue was the first to find him.

In fact, as early as Yunsu Group announced the successful acquisition of Paradise Group, Mu Xingxue came over immediately after receiving the news, and analyzed with a slightly heavy expression: "Paradise was originally the most famous theme park of Blue Star, and now With the capital investment of Yunsu, if our theme park opens with them at the end of the year, it will be difficult not to be affected."

It's not that Mu Xingxue has no confidence in his theme park.

To put it bluntly, the amusement facilities in the Blue Star Theme Park come and go only a few times. Amusement parks of the same size are similar. In other words, in many cases, the profitability of the amusement park itself is different from that of the corresponding company. The funds invested are often directly proportional.

For example, Yunsu Theme Park and Huaying Theme Park.

Long before Yunsu Group acquired the Paradise Theme Park, or the total cost was as high as 200 billion credits. Yunsu Group spent a large amount of money to acquire the Paradise Theme Park, not to mention the additional investment in the new theme park, so that the newborn The total cost of Yunsu theme park cars has reached 300 billion.

As for the cost of Huaying Theme Park, what has been invested so far is only 30 billion.

To put it bluntly-whether the Huaying theme park with a cost of 30 billion yuan is fun is still unknown.But Yunsu Theme Park, with a total cost of 300 billion, is not that fun, but with the support of such a huge amount, the amusement facilities in it are definitely not bad.

This is the same for tourists.

One side is a large-scale comprehensive theme park with an investment of up to 300 billion yuan, and the total cost of the other side is less than one-tenth of the former. Given the small difference in tickets between the two, I am afraid that a normal person can be in Make the wisest choice between the two.

"Theme park is a typical continuous project after all, and the annual maintenance cost is a considerable expense. If Yunsu Group intends to use the theme park to target us, it may be a bit difficult for our theme park project to continue to develop normally. Disaster."

Speaking of this, Mu Xingxue was also a little helpless: "Yunsu Group's investment in theme parks is too high, we can't compare with them at all."

"Isn't this just right?"

Mu Su Xing said, his tone was half serious, half joking: "Didn't you say that when you were surrounded by Yunsu last time, that price was too cheap? Now it's rare that Yunsu spent all his money on the theme park. It's a full 300 billion, if it loses, isn't it just the price that Yunsu will pay in blood?"

300 billion versus 30 billion.

The difference between the two is so great that at this moment, Mu Xingxue almost instinctively thought that Mu Su Xing was joking, so he didn't think much about it, and just said dumbfoundingly:

"It's this time, are you still kidding me?"

Shepherd star smiled.

He knew very well that no matter what he said, Mu Xingxue would not believe him in the face of such a huge gap.Therefore, Mu Su Xing did not intend to correct the other party's statement, but acquiesced to Mu Xingxue's "joking" statement, and asked another question:

"What do you think is the difference between us and Yunsu, who are both theme parks?"

Mu Xingxue pondered: "You mean...IP?"

Yes.

Needless to say, entertainment facilities, Yunsu's overall investment is placed there.I also know that most of their entertainment facilities are not much worse, and this is exactly what Huaying can't compare with.But in the same way, Huaying also has something that Yun Su can't compare with, it's hard to compare.

That is the top IP accumulated by Huaying Animation through years of hard work in animation production.

As for the world-class big IP alone, there are currently two series of Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter. Their respective fans love these two series and their derivatives to the point of obsession.Mu Xingxue has no doubt that when the theme park opens, fans of these two series will buy tickets for the park without hesitation, no matter whether the entertainment facilities in the park are interesting or not, even if it is for the former residence of Sherlock Holmes and Hogwarts Castle.

"Yunsu has Yunsu's strengths, and we also have our own advantages."

Shepherd Xing said: "In my opinion, our theme park and Yunsu's theme park are actually two completely different types."

There is nothing wrong with Yunsu Group's various renovation plans for Paradise Theme Park, but this kind of renovation has always only stayed on the surface of the "theme park". From the beginning to the end, they focused on the theme park itself. There is no step beyond the confines of theme parks.

Huaying is not.

For Shepherd Star, what he wants to build is not only a theme park, but not just a theme park.

It is said that it is a theme park, and it is an entertainment facility that should be available in an ordinary amusement park, and there will be no shortage of Huaying Theme Park.It's not just a theme park, but because in the heart of Xing Mu, this fragment called "Theme Park" is the last piece of the puzzle of "Blue Star Akihabara" in his heart.

Over the years, he has tried many things.

Animation, games, comics, toy peripherals, themed restaurants...

But this is not enough.

If it is said that comics and animations allow readers and audiences to experience different Two-dimensional worlds, and games and figure peripherals are to maximize the benefits of the IP itself, then Huaying Theme Park is the animation producer of Ji Mu Su Xing The ambition, and the feelings of ACG fans are integrated, let the illusion shine into the dream of reality.

It should have Sherlock Holmes, Hogwarts Castle.

With the emergence of more video animations, it is also possible to add the Golden Merry and Wanli Sunshine of the same model as the Straw Hat Pirates moored by the lake, or a mountain waterfall that is exactly the same as the Valley of the End in "Naruto".

It should have a witch's house theme haunted house, allowing visitors to experience the horror and excitement in the original game in reality.One Piece theme "Drifting Upside Down Mountain" can also be designed.Let tourists have the magical experience of crossing the Upside Down Mountain and entering the great route like the Straw Hat Pirates.

There are also Xingping Restaurant, Yile Ramen...

It should make every fan who loves those worlds feel that even for a moment—they really touched that world—the childish virtual world that has accompanied them for many years in the eyes of the world is real. .

It is a pilgrimage that every ACG fan longs for.

When comics, animations, games... when all of these are connected one by one, and turned into a reality that is visible to the naked eye and can be touched with hands in the theme park, for all fans, the chemical effect in it, It's not as simple as "1+1=2".

Because of this, for Huaying right now, it doesn't make any sense to fight Yunsu in publicity.

When the audience witnessed the break between Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke in the Valley of the End in "Naruto"; when the audience, together with the Straw Hat Pirates, bid farewell to the Golden Meri with tears in the fire of the capital of seven waters.As long as "Naruto" and "One Piece" enter everyone's field of vision, with the influence of these two top IPs, will there be no one to come to the theme park?

At the same moment, inside the "Anime Online" magazine.

Shen Nian is also discussing this issue with his colleagues: "You said, did Huaying give up the theme park plan? Why hasn't there been any movement until now?"

"It's normal, 300 billion vs. 30 billion. Although Huaying will definitely continue to invest in the future, the gap is indeed too big. Both of them are near Christmas. If Huaying doesn't take the initiative to avoid it, then Even the investment of 30 billion yuan will be in vain, and it may not be possible to recover the cost in the future."

Avoid Cloud Speed?

Thinking of Huaying's usual style, Shen Nian shrugged his shoulders noncommittally for his colleagues' evaluations, but said: "Don't mention this, it's important, don't forget that "Naruto" and "One Piece" are going online today, we are I have to finish writing the manga commentary, so it can be sent to print tomorrow.”

The topic of everyone naturally shifted to Huaying's two new works.

"With such a cold subject, I'm afraid only Huaying dares to touch it."

"It's hard to tell. If you really want to say, when did Blue Star come up with a hot theme, not Huaying took the lead, but other companies followed suit? Let me tell you, when these two animations come out, Blue Star will definitely There are a lot more ninja and pirate themes."

Time passed quickly among everyone chatting, and soon it was eight o'clock in the evening.

"Naruto" started broadcasting.
