Chapter 110: Scaling Up?

Although it may seem more "vigorous" to determine the future strategic direction of a company by one person, in fact, some "consultation" is inevitable.

The 06 year has passed, and in terms of comprehensive income, Mad Poihat can definitely occupy the forefront of all animation companies with such a "heavy (sales)" animation as IS, although there is a big gap between it and animation such as "Suzumiya Haruhi" in terms of sales, but don't forget that the profits of the "Suzumiya series" are basically on Kawakaku Shoten, and Kyoto Animation, which produced it, is just drinking soup...... Mad Poihat is certainly not as profitable as Kagawakaku, even if it is limited to the comparison of a single animation project, but it is really more profitable than Kyoto Animation.

The reason for this is that IS is Mad Poihat's original animation, and the company has reached a rather risky 50% of the overall investment ratio, so its sales and profitability conversion rate are obvious. The higher the sales, the higher the profit of Mad Poihat, the higher the profit, so when they see the sales figures, their emotional tone must be happy.

And Kyoto Animation, the mood when I saw Suzumiya's sales must be more complicated...... It is conceivable that on the one hand, they are also extremely emotional, after all, they have created the company's highest sales record, but this "upsurge" will inevitably bring a sense of loss.

It is even said that the more Liang Gong sells, the more serious this sense of loss with contradictions becomes...... Obviously sells well, but can't make money, how painful is this contrast?

Therefore, taking back the lead in animation planning, taking a firm position in the production committee, and producing original animation is the "way of survival" for all animators, and it is also one of the goals to pursue.

However, on the other hand, this seemingly beautiful road is also very difficult to walk.

After all, it's hard to say which relatively independent animation company has a capital advantage, and even when they produce original animation with a large investment, they often have to be prepared for bankruptcy.

But there is no animation company that does not bow to sales, after all, everyone is doing commercial animation - didn't Kyoto Animation later make Free, and even tried the "no color limit" of flesh color?

After the success of Lucky Star, they did "everyday", and after the daily violent death, they no longer had the luxury of making another lucky star.

After the success of "Light Girl", Kyoto Animation began to "lighten up" in an all-round way...... In any case, "K-ON" is an animation work that reflects the commercial nature of the animation company to a considerable extent.

It is even said that the first and second seasons of the light girl are an important dividing line that distinguishes the "daily department" from the waste cute animation. The first issue of "Light Girl" can still be regarded as a typical example of daily campus animation, the only problem is that this campus animation sells too well.

Good to the point of exaggeration.

Therefore, Kyoto Animation soon launched the second phase of the project, and when the second phase was produced, it began to greatly relax the story structure, slow down the pace of the plot, and began to fill the plot with various elements to increase the number of episodes, so its second phase was completely relaxed into a big lump.

The first shot of the waste sprout sounded clearly and loudly.

The first issue of the light sound is 14 words, the second issue is 27 words, this kind of production method of less and then more is rare, generally the first issue is the quarter, the second phase is also the season, or the first issue is half a year, the second phase is the season and so on.

So this kind of "eating appearance" is basically enough to be called a "face".

However, what's wrong with this, doesn't it sell well and make people make a few more volumes?

…………

The "two-person" year-end meeting, which decided the direction of Mad Poihat's new year, continues. However, this kind of "meeting" is limited to the size and number of people, and it can no longer be called a meeting, but it is just that Miyadai and Iwami Mai are exchanging ideas.

"Considering that 'Little Forest' occupies a considerable degree of our production capacity, then the only TV animation we can make next year is the second season of IS, so will the company seem a little undersupported?" Mai Iwami asked.

"Indeed, if there were only IS next, then the audience's impression of us would probably be fixed in this way...... This is not a good sign. However, with our current production capabilities, there is no way to produce one TV animation and one movie animation at the same time as other production projects. Miyadai said, "Three Kai" is outside of the current Mad Poihat's capabilities.

"So...... Are we going to recruit more people? "Iwami came up with a fairly reasonable solution.

"If you have the ability to do this, you have to do it...... Companies really need to gradually expand their workforce. Miyadai said.

In fact, both of them feel that only the second phase of IS is a bit lacking in freshness, and "new animation" is needed.

"Then let's do it, anyway, there is no problem with the company's current working capital." Iwami said, and then she asked, "But even if you want to make a new anime, what type do you want to do?" ”

"Personally, I think it's either a matter of trying to make a ranfan, or it's starting to march into the moe system." Miyadai replied.

"Moe? Is it still a Bishoujo anime? It seems that this word has not yet reached the ears of the senior sister.

"It's supposed to be a beautiful girl animation with little plot or no plot...... That's how to understand it for the time being. ”

“…… Is there anything interesting about this animation? "Iwami Mai is confused, what to watch if there is no plot.

"I don't know," Miyadai shook his head, God knows what's the point of using animation to show the JKs sitting together drinking tea?

"Let's not talk about that.,If you want to make a burning fan or a juvenile animation.,Generally, there are two themes.,One is combat animation.,The other is sports animation.,They're all the types that need the expressiveness of the original painting.,Especially the former.。

The core elements of the story of the sports fan are more simple, and it would be good to show the three words "competitiveness", however...... First, this kind of animation is easy to applaud; Second, it is necessary to deal with this kind of 'competitiveness' in a realistic way without exaggeration, but there are still things that I need to pay special attention to......

In terms of the "aesthetics" of Gong Dai's performance, he definitely doesn't want to make sports into magic animation, athletes definitely don't know magic, otherwise how good is it to do magic animation directly?

However, if this kind of competition rises to the height of international confrontation, then he needs to pay extra attention. First of all, the animated DVD is to be sold to the islanders, so the protagonist needs to be the islanders; Secondly, if there is a confrontation between China and Japan in some games, it will be particularly difficult to deal with.

For example, to do ping-pong animation, it must exist in Chinese; If you want to do badminton, you have to have Chinese.

Therefore, if the protagonist loses in the case of confrontation, the audience has no sense of substitution; If the protagonist wins, you must know that the future palace is still going to return to China to mix, and this kind of problem is easy to be magnified...... Maybe he was a little too cautious, but it was best not to stain these black spots at all.

"So-kun, you've been overcareful in these places."

"No, no, you can't be too careful with these places."

Miyayo said that for no reason, if someone accuses me of being a "Japanese spirit", how unjust is GAME OVER?

The issue of position is firm and unshakable, he is Chinese, so shouldn't these attitudes be natural?
