Chapter 264: Ratings

After Xi Muhan watched the animation of the first episode, he couldn't wait to click on the forum and looked at the replies in it with joy.

Since freshmen had to live on campus, Xi Muhan lived with three other girls. The other three people usually soak in the study room, and now only Xi Muhan is left in the entire dormitory.

Originally, Xi Muhan was also going to the study room, but today is the premiere of "Chess Soul", and she wanted to see "Chess Soul" for the first time, so she returned to the dormitory in advance.

Xi Muhan rarely watches animation, and the last one she watched was Shen Xin's "Y's", but she only watched the first few episodes, and the plot behind it was changed very much, so she didn't have the heart to watch it.

With her shallow understanding of comics, the quality of "Chess Soul" is significantly higher than that of "Y's", and she has no idea how much higher.

But after reading the post on the Manjia.com forum, Xi Muhan also has some understanding of the production level of "Chess Soul", that is, "Chess Soul" is better than most animations, and it is much better.

Xi Muhan had just finished reading a post on more than 100 floors, and clicked on a post with a screenshot of "Chess Soul" again, and the door of the dormitory was pushed open by his roommate.

She glanced back at the person who had entered the room, it was a girl with a double ponytail, holding a copy of the "Outline of World Civilization" in her hand.

This girl's name is Liu Yan, Xi Muhan's roommate. I usually like to read world history, and I have also recommended some good European and American history to Xi Muhan, and she is relatively quiet, but after getting acquainted with her, many people will find that she has another side that no one knows.

Liu Yan and Xi Muhan have a good relationship, and they often chat after the lights go out.

It's just that Xi Muhan usually watches more Chinese history, and world history just takes a few casual glances, so the two often diverge when chatting.

Liu Yan put the book on the desk, noticed Xi Muhan looking at the screen and smirking, so she leaned over curiously.

"Why? With a smirk on his face. ”

"Huh?" Xi Muhan was stunned for a moment, quickly put away his smile, and looked at Liu Yan with some embarrassment, as if someone had discovered some little secret, "You...... Didn't you go to self-study? ”

"Tomorrow the first library is ready for an event, and the library is closed, and the other libraries are full, so I'll come back first...... What are you looking at? ”

"No, just take a look at the forums." Xi Muhan hurriedly said.

"Historical Forum?" Liu Yan looked at the computer screen, "Huh? "Chess Soul"? What dynasty is this? ”

Xi Muhan coughed dryly, "This is not history, it's animation." ”

"Huh?" Liu Yan grinned, "Usually you write words that are not nutritious, so forget it, and watch these animations that are not nutritious." ”

"You haven't seen it, how do you know it's not nutritious?"

Xi Muhan was a little dissatisfied, if Liu Yan said that she would forget it, she said Shen Xin, she couldn't bear it.

Besides, "Chess Soul" is not an unnutritious comic.

"Needless to say, it's all watched by people under the age of 11."

"This comic, even adults are reading it, and there are a lot of professional chess players. You don't know as much about Go as you do about a professional player, right? ”

"Not necessarily. If it were the history of Go, it would be possible that I knew more. ”

“……”

And this kind of nerd, there is nothing to say.

Xi Muhan puffed out his cheeks and pulled down the post depressedly.

"Stop!"

Liu Yan behind him suddenly shouted to stop, startling Xi Muhan.

"What's the matter?" Xi Muhan looked at Liu Yan puzzled.

"Who is this boy drawing? How pretty? Liu Yan pointed to the screen and said.

Xi Muhan looked at the screen again, it happened to be the animated screenshot of Zuo Wei's appearance, Zuo Wei's elegance and elegance are vividly reflected in this screenshot.

Only then did she remember that Liu Yan likes history, but prefers historical stories of "selling corruption", both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, all dabbling.

"Ahem...... Want to know? Xi Muhan coughed lightly.

"Hmm." Liu Yan nodded again and again, her eyes full of curiosity.

"Then we'll start at the beginning." Xi Muhan took a deep breath, her primary goal now is to make Liu Yan a reader of "Chess Soul".

……

The next day, the ratings of the major animations on Saturday were published on the Manjia network.

With a rating of 7.5%, Chess Soul squeezed into the top ten.

This is already a desirable result for a new manga. The comics of "ComicFuture" magazine, which ranks higher than "Chess Soul", are only "Killer Diary" and "The Legend of the Dragon King", and even "Hunting Abyss" is behind "Chess Soul".

Long Tian, the general manager of Long Yao, couldn't close his mouth at all when he saw this rating.

This is only the ratings of the first episode, if the trend is stable, the ratings of "Chess Soul" are likely to break 9%, and at that time, the sales will be very exciting.

The TV station paid 65% of the production costs, the advertising company and the game company, also paid 15%, and the Han country TV also paid a large amount of broadcast fees, plus two new films were broadcast in April, and the sales of the CD were also good. Long Yao finally had a lot of liquidity.

Although there is still a certain gap between the current and the peak of Long Yao, as long as the sales are not too bad, Long Yao will come out of the quagmire and resurrect with full blood.

The only thing that makes Long Tian feel sorry is that the company does not have the copyright in District 11, and the ratings and sales of "Chess Soul" in District 11 have nothing to do with Long Yao.

Long Tian felt like he was missing out on a hundred million.

There are losses and gains, right?

If there was no Orochi, the picture would not be of such high quality, by the way, and the music, Sawyer deliberately found a high-level producer, so the music of "Chess Soul" is also a highlight.

Long Tian is not a fool, although the money is not as much as making alone, but the production cost is reduced, the risk is smaller, and more importantly, in this way, Long Yao has the funds and energy to make original animated films.

"Well, take the time to collect a few notebooks and take a look."

Long Tian rubbed his chin, a little unable to hold back his excitement. Producing manga animations, I never have a sense of accomplishment in making original animations.

At that moment, the fax machine at the desk suddenly rang, and a form was quickly printed.

Long Tian glanced at the words on it, and it was crooked, either horizontal or vertical or circled.

He smacked his mouth twice, a little helpless.

Someone else is blind or face-blind, he is literate.

In his opinion, most of the Han characters look similar.

After thinking for a moment, I made a phone call to the company's translator.

Soon, a young man with glasses knocked on the office door.

"Look at what's written on this?" Long Tian handed the fax to the young man.

"Oh, it's the ratings of "Chess Soul" in the country of Han."

"What's the result?" Long Tian said curiously.

"6.6%, out of all animations, in the top 10."

"Huh?"

Long Tian immediately became interested, but he didn't expect that the ratings of "Chess Soul" in Han Country would be so high, and the next broadcast right, can it be sold more expensive?

Suddenly, Long Tian was full of expectations for the future of the animation of "Chess Soul".
