Chapter 760 Guangmei’s Terrifying Achievements (Please Subscribe)

This summer is very lively.

Wanbao Headquarters alone has released two masterpieces, "Crayon Shin-chan" and "Brothers of All Time", which have achieved both good ratings and reputation, not to mention overseas "PreCure" and "Tom and Jerry".

Among them, leaving aside the two popular animations in China, only speaking from abroad, "Pretty Cure" is more popular year-on-year, and "Tom and Jerry" has wider coverage.

Focus on praising Tom and Jerry!

Tom and Jerry, a pair of happy enemies, did not make much waves during the broadcast period due to production cycle constraints, but the popularity of the characters has always been high.

The coverage is terrible...

So far, the first 10 episodes of the animated "Tom and Jerry" have been translated into 53 versions and have been publicly broadcast on television stations in more than 140 countries and regions.

Some media have reported that Tom and Jerry, the "cat-and-mouse duo," are even more famous than Hollywood's top stars. More than 1 billion people around the world have watched or passively learned about these two cartoon characters.

This is also due to Oscar.

The Wanbao version of "Tom and Jerry" was at its peak when it debuted. It won an Oscar statuette in the first episode. It instantly opened up the global market and allowed many children in remote areas and countries to see this animation.

That's why the coverage is so outrageous. If it hadn't won an Oscar, it would probably be popular in Europe and the United States by now, and it wouldn't even be broadcast in Africa.

But there are gains and losses.

Although the coverage is very wide, with a global audience of over one billion, due to the production speed, the animated "Tom and Jerry" only has a wide coverage, but it is not very popular.

This is not a "contradiction".

The fact is that many people only occasionally watched an episode or two of "Tom and Jerry" on TV and thought it was pretty good.

But because there were too few animated episodes and no follow-up, viewers who had glimpsed it quickly forgot about "Tom and Jerry."

On the contrary, the Neon Division, the strange magical girl-themed animation "Pretty Cure" supervised by Nishio, the "Dragon Ball Director", became extremely popular.

"The half-year period has arrived!"

"I want to take back all the things that belong to me, Seto! I have tolerated you again and again in the past six months..."

"Okay, stop, stop, stop!"

Seto waved his hand, indicating that he was tired of hearing Nishio's crooked Dragon King lines. He rolled his eyes and said, "What's the use of telling me?"

"This engagement...ah! Did I arrange this task for you?"

"No, it's the president."

"Then you go talk to the president!" Seto slammed the table hard, imitating Nishio's angry expression just now, "Just tell him that Mitsumi's son-in-law quits! The half-year period is up, and I want to go back As the Dragon King, I won’t play with you as a magical girl.”

"That won't work..."

Nishio quickly refused: "I don't dare to speak to the president like that. I'm afraid he will send me to a doghouse if he gets angry."

He just complained a few words.

If he were asked to leave the production team of "Pretty Cure" and go back to work on the second season of "Dragon Ball", he would probably not be able to bear it.

after all……

Anyone with a discerning eye can now see that "Pretty Cure" is really popular and has become his new masterpiece.

Under this premise, as a responsible animation supervisor, of course he must do his best to complete the remaining episodes and not leave any regrets or excuses to the audience.

It’s just that it’s really hard for him to stretch!

What the president said half a year ago has now really become a reality.

26 episodes scheduled for half a year...

But not long after the 26th episode of the anime "さよならメップルミップル!?やだー!" was aired, fans all over the Internet went crazy.

On various platforms and forums, people are clamoring for him to come forward to clarify the fact that "PreCure" is not over yet.

What can Nishio do?

After a full 26 episodes of accumulation, the popularity and popularity of Guangmei Animation has now reached a peak.

Not to mention that fans and viewers are reluctant to let the animation end, even he, the director, feels that it would be too irresponsible to end the animation so hastily.

Half a year?

This is a half-year period! If he dared to announce the end, let alone whether the president would come from Jiangchuan and chop him with a knife, the fans' "truck collision" alone would be enough for him to drink.

"It can only be the!"

Nishio sighed, and then released the second trailer for the 27th episode of the anime "Pretty Cure" on his social homepage.

Now the fans are satisfied.

Seto, who had been persuading for a long time, was satisfied. Gu Miao, who was far away in Jiangchuan and was paying attention to this matter, was also satisfied.

Everyone is happy!

It can be said that Nishio's official announcement that the animation "Pretty Cure" has been upgraded from 26 episodes in a half-year series to 52 episodes in a yearly series perfectly meets the interests and needs of all parties.

By extending the cycle and life of the work, Wanbao can reap richer returns, fans can reap more happiness and emotion, and the production team can also receive subsidies for an extra period of time...

The only person injured was probably Nishio, the animation director who wanted to be a magical girl for half a year and then continued to work on "Dragon Ball".

Of course, this is a joke.

Nishio is actually not that sad. As an animation supervisor, it’s too late for him to be happy when he sees his work being so popular!

He just feels that doing this is a bit sorry for the fans of "Dragon Ball"...

After all, I have decided before that I will do the second season of "Dragon Ball" after "PreCure" is finished and tell everyone the story of the Saiyans.

Now Guangmei has upgraded from a semi-annual show to an annual show, which means that the second season of "Dragon Ball" originally scheduled to be broadcast in the second half of the year may have to be postponed to next year.

"Okay, okay!"

"It's only been delayed for half a year, fans won't mind." Gu Miao comforted on the phone, "Besides, producing Guangmei is also very fulfilling!"

Not much worse than Dragon Ball.

Nishio is just a simple animation supervisor. He cannot see many details hidden behind the animation. He can only see superficial results such as audience feedback and ratings.

But Gu Miao was different.

As a businessman and the owner of a multinational animation toy company, Gu Miao knows many unknown secrets.

For example...

In the Japanese girls' toy market, where sales exceeding 5 billion yen are considered a success, due to the popularity of the anime "Pretty Cure", Wanbao Toys' sales of related toy derivatives exceeded 5 billion yen in the first half of this year alone.

It is worth mentioning that.

The sales of 5 billion yen refer to the neon "single" market, the sales of toy peripheral derivatives of the "single" IP of "Pretty Cure" from January to May this year.

A single market, a single IP, collected 5 billion yen in just five months. Such an astonishing performance is enough to prove how terrifying the influence of "Pretty Cure" is.

so……

Gu Miao attaches great importance to the IP of Guangmei and would not allow it under any circumstances. The first season will only be completed with 26 episodes.

Even if the audience and fans have no objections, Gu Miao will ask the Neon Division to upgrade from the semi-annual to the annual in order to sell toy peripherals.

I kept coughing, so I listened to other people’s suggestions and soaked some hawthorn leaf honeysuckle in water to drink. It seemed to be getting better...
