A new week has just arrived, and "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" has ushered in its premiere day.

On Monday morning, TV Tokyo was busy getting ready.

"How's the test screening going? There were no accidents, right? Director Sasaki took time out of his busy schedule to go backstage, and for today's premiere, he asked for an internal test screening of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and the process was the same as the official screening, except that it would not be released to the outside world.

"Nope." Miss Meiling, who was in charge of this matter, replied with a smile: "A qiē is very smooth, and there will be no accidents at the afternoon screening." ”

Sasaki breathed a sigh of relief: "That's okay, I'll go check the situation of the Internet channel." He then turned around and wanted to leave, but before leaving, he stopped and told again: "This animation is very important to our TV station, you should pay attention today, don't go on a business trip." ”

Meiling nodded, the TV station attaches great importance to the broadcast of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", of course she will be very careful.

Compared with CCTV and Suhua TV, TV Tokyo's love for animation is obviously deeper, and it is even comparable to Suhua TV. This is due to the geographical elements of the Far East, which has had limited influence on the continent and has lagged behind since the rise of television media.

In the past, it was mainly TV dramas that determined the ratings of TV programs, but the advantage of the Far East Region in this regard has always been inferior to that of mainland TV stations.

The rise of animation gave TV Tokyo hope, and they were pleasantly surprised by the high ratings of Gundam SEED, and many viewers were from mainland China, something that TV Tokyo has been pursuing.

If you want to become a first-class TV station in China. Mainland audiences are indispensable. And it is for these reasons. TV Tokyo only curry favor with Phoenix. won the priority premiere right of the animation in his hands.

This is their victory, but in order to consolidate the gains of victory, there must be no surprises in the broadcast of Mobile Suit Gundam OO.

"The weather is so good today, there are no accidents."

Meiling looked at the sky outside, full of confidence, the sky in Tokyo was clear, but in Suhua, the sky looked a little gloomy since the morning. By five o'clock in the afternoon, it was raining mercilessly.

"Oh no, I didn't bring an umbrella, Li Yu, did you bring it?" A federation of comic clubs is being held in the university town, and the meeting has just ended, Han Xuan is a little anxious when she sees the change in the weather outside: "Why is it raining all of a sudden, I have to go back to watch the animation later!" ”

"I lent my umbrella to a senior sister."

Li Yu, who was standing next to Han Xuan, said with a wry smile, although the two are not from the same school, they are both managers of the comic club. The participants of this association are the heads of the comic clubs of the respective schools. Liu Yi and Liu Yun were also present, but they didn't stand with Han Xuan.

Han Xuan turned his head to look. The rest of the hall had noticed the rain and was a bit noisy.

"Damn, it's raining!"

"What's going on with this weather, the forecast is not accurate!"

There are not a few people who don't have umbrellas, and the federation is held in the afternoon, but if it is in the morning, the participants will not complain much. In the morning, everyone basically went out with umbrellas, but the rain never fell, and at noon, the sky cleared for a while, and everyone went out without umbrellas.

The people here are all anime fans, and there are many people who want to watch "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", and when they see the rain, many people cry out for bad luck.

"It's unlucky, when will this rain stop?"

The people with umbrellas left with a smile one after another, and those without umbrellas stayed in the hall to stare dryly, Han Xuan's eyes were keen, she suddenly saw two familiar figures in the crowd leaving, and her eyes glared: "Liu Yun is so unkind, she left us alone!" ”

Li Yu followed her line of sight, and sure enough, she found that Liu Yun and Liu Yi left with an umbrella. She smiled slightly: "Forget it, the two of them can't see anyone else when they're together, maybe they won't find us!" ”

Then, she picked up the bag in her hand and put it on her head. "I'm going to run." Li Yu winked at Han Xuan: "Anyway, the rain is not heavy, run back to take a shower just to watch the animation, do you want to go with me?" ”

Han Xuan was stunned, and then picked up the bag as well: "Fortunately, my bag is waterproof!" The two girls smiled at each other, then suddenly shouted twice and ran out into the rain together, they hadn't done such childlike behavior for a long time, but it still made them happy.

"Hahaha...... It's been a long time since I've felt this way, it's like going back to high school. ”

"I was just thinking that if Shen Jie was here, she would definitely take the two of us into the rain."

"No wonder Li Yu is so bold, but Shen Jie will definitely be happier if he is here."

Shen Jie's legs were already able to run, and Han Xuan and Li Yu couldn't help but laugh when they thought of her situation. Behind them, the other college students in the hall stood stunned for a while, and then they all ran into the rain one after another.

For the premiere of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", this little rain is nothing.

On the comic island not far from the university town, Meng Shu was also quietly looking at the rain outside in the office, the sky was a little dark, but the rain in the evening was very beautiful, if you gathered the spiritual energy in your eyes, you could also see the waves caused by the rain falling on the river.

"Meng Shu, the tea is ready."

At this time, Alice interrupted Meng Shu's rain.

He turned his head and watched Alice put the brewed tea on the desk.

"Why do you seem to be a little unhappy today?" Meng Shu sat down and asked, Alice usually came to his office happily, but today Meng Shu noticed that her brow was a little gloomy - just like the sky outside.

"I can't hide it from you." Alice smiled, she was very happy that Meng Shu could find out her mind, every time Meng Shu saw through her, she would be very happy in her heart, because it meant that Meng Shu was paying attention to her very carefully.

"Today I was disgusted by a man." She explained: "It's okay if this man himself is not promising, he actually relies on a widow's support to eat and drink, and now he still has the face to animate with an unknown script, do you say evil or not?" ”

"Is there such a man?" Meng Shu was a little surprised, and then nodded: "It's indeed a bit excessive." ”

He was curious about who this man was, but Alice didn't seem to want to continue explaining, she seemed to be in a better mood after saying a few words, and took the initiative to divert the topic.

"Forget it, I don't want to mention it, let's talk about Mobile Suit Gundam 00." Alice watched Meng Shu take the tea and drink it, and said with a smile: "It will premiere later, if only it could be as popular as "Gundam Seed"." ”

Meng Shu took a sip of tea: "I just hope that the reviews of the first episode I see in the newspaper tomorrow are not too bad." ”

He said something amazing, and then smiled bitterly: "I looked at the reports of the past two days, and it seems that everyone has great expectations for the premiere of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and looking at these expectations, I have been worried, will tomorrow's newspaper be bloody with my scolding dog?" ”

Alice was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "How come, you are less confident than others?" Isn't the comment on this episode very good, today the director of Suhua TV praised it in front of me, saying that your voice acting is excellent...... What are you worried about? ”

"Of course it's on the TV station." Meng Shu nodded, he knew that Suhua TV had a good evaluation of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", not only them, but also Tokyo and CCTV.

"But the TV station is because I've already told them the story, and the evaluation method they watched the first episode was based on the anime as a whole, which can't be counted...... Didn't some of the voice actors of the office also watch it? What do they say? ”

The voice actors don't know the overall plot of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and their impressions of seeing the anime during the recording will be more in line with the feelings of normal viewers.

"This ......"

Alice has nothing to say, she thinks back to the fact that the voice actors did not react well after watching the first episode, not as enthusiastic as the previous anime, they may not say bad things because of the company's face, and the plot of this episode may be worse than expected.

"You see, right?" Meng Shu saw that Alice didn't reply, and couldn't help but sigh.

He had a lot of confidence in Mobile Suit Gundam 00, but he didn't have much confidence in the first episode. In fact, the first episode of this animation gives a rather bad impression, no, maybe it's more appropriate to say it's chaotic, when Meng Shu watched the first episode in his previous life, even the interest in the second episode disappeared after watching it.

It's not that the story is boring, but the story of the first episode of this anime is too compact, and this episode is about the beginning of the story. But with fast progression, a bunch of puzzles, and quick switching between characters, it's easy to get confused.

"Mobile Suit Gundam 00" has a huge number of animated characters, and the characters who appear throughout the show in the first episode are no less than double digits, and in just twenty minutes, the share of each character is very small, and the audience will not remember a few people after watching it.

In fact, there are very few shots and dialogues of the protagonist in this episode, and Meng Shu is very worried about it, so he made some modifications to lengthen the animation time of this episode, and add lines and shots of key characters.

He believes that in this way, at least the audience can understand which characters are the main characters, but the structure of the animation has not changed much, and coupled with the newly created world view, the average audience will probably still feel bored and confused after watching it.

The evaluation of this episode will not be good in theory.

"Don't worry." But after thinking for a moment, Alice suddenly laughed: "Don't worry, this episode will definitely be a hit." ”

Meng didn't understand where her faith came from. (To be continued......)
