Wanbao Animation, or Wanbao Group, has been casting a wide net in China since the establishment of a special animation investment platter department.

The results have been remarkable.

Although a lot of money was spent unjustly, it did encounter a lot of pitfalls.

But there are also a series of high-quality Chinese comic works such as "Crazy Hero" and "Fox Demon Little Red Lady", which were bet on by Wanbao.

Especially "Fox Demon Little Red Lady"!

This is definitely the most cost-effective and highest rate of return project that Wanbao Investment Department has invested in since its establishment.

Zhonghai Picture Animation also relied on this out-of-the-circle work to become an instant hit in the industry, and its status has risen gradually, similar to the Xuanji Animation that produced the "Qin Shi Mingyue" series.

But except for "The Fox Demon Little Red Lady", most of the projects invested by Wanbao are cold.

"Spirit Cage" is the most important project of the investment department this year.

Because in the internal review stage, most people believe that this will be the third successful investment case of Wanbao Investment Department after "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" and "Crazy Hero".

Wanbao is the second largest shareholder of Yitian Studios, second only to the company's founding team.

And the relationship between Yitian Studio and Wanbao Animation can also be said to be extremely close. Because of this, Gu Miao knew them well.

Yitian Studio became famous because of the anime "Crazy Hero", which has a fandom nature.

And after becoming famous, they are probably inflated, and even a little too proud, and they actually want to make a more awesome sequel based on "Crazy Heroes".

Gu Miao warned them at that time.

If you're really capable, don't do any fandom or sequels, and go straight to original animation, which can reduce a lot of trouble.

Under his strong persuasion, or strong opposition, the "Phantom Nordling" project, which was supposed to be a project, was forced to abort.

"Spirit Cage" came into being.

The story told by the spirit cage is not complicated, to put it bluntly, it is still the set of the apocalyptic wasteland, and you can also see the shadow of the killed "Phantom Nordrine".

It's just that this is an original animation, from the plot to the character setting, Yitian Studio has taken a new path.

Gu Miao did not participate in the production.

He promised to be only a qualified investor and not interfere in all the management of the company, and he did what he said.

From the birth of the project to the scheduled broadcast, he basically didn't ask much about it halfway, and even the news of the scheduled broadcast was still what he saw on Weibo.

Of course!

Although he doesn't care much about the project, he is the investor of the project after all, and the owner of the money he spends, Yitian Studio will often write to him by email and call to report the progress of the work.

But how can you understand it by email and phone alone?

is still Lao Zhang, an intelligence dealer, who knows more about the inside story, and at the same time knows the specific situation of the "Spirit Cage" project.

He told Gu Miao.

The first season of the animation "Spirit Cage" will be broadcast exclusively on Wanbao Video two days later. The broadcast method is naturally the most traditional "VIP exclusive" model.

And the animation so far, two trailer PV clips have been released.

The first trailer PV did not cause much repercussions after it was launched, and the number of broadcasts was not high.

But after the second trailer PV was launched, it not only attracted high attention, but also gained more than 50 million video views.

It can be said that the fire is a ruin!

Based on this situation, the animation estimate given by the operation department of Wanbao Video is very high, and it is believed that it is expected to break the record of "VIP exclusive" animation and become the most popular VIP exclusive animation of Wanbao Video.

"That's pretty good......"

Gu Miao nodded, and then asked: "Tell the operation staff of Wanbao Video Website that a godson is also a son, and this month I will focus on promoting the animation of "Spirit Cage", don't drop the chain." ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Gu!"

"I've already told the person in charge of Wanbao Video about these things."

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Everyone is quite optimistic about the broadcast performance of "Spirit Cage", and no one will hold back. ”

"That's good, that's good!"

When Gu Miao heard this, he first breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Oh no!" You are all so optimistic about the broadcast performance of "Spirit Cage", have you watched the sample film in advance? ”

"I've seen it."

Lao Zhang nodded honestly and said with a smile: "To be honest, although this is only the second work of Yitian Studio, I can obviously feel that they have made great progress. ”

"Spirit Cage" shocked him a lot.

This kind of shock, not at the technical level, nor at the level of the work, but at the level of the company.

A year ago, when did Yitian Studio just accept Wanbao's investment, what kind of stinky fish and rotten shrimp workshop?

In just one year.

Their progress is so great, and the 3D technical strength embodied in the animation "Spirit Cage" is enough to make Lao Zhang feel admired.

"So, that's amazing?"

"That's for sure!"

Lao Zhang squeezed his eyebrows and said: "The animation will be broadcast soon, and I won't spoil it." Anyway, I can assure you that this anime will definitely satisfy you. ”

Not necessarily!

Lao Zhang didn't know that Gu Miao had actually watched the original "Spirit Cage" animation, and had secretly licked Bai Yuekui's screen, so he said so.

But the question is......

As an audience who has watched the original version, Gu Miao's sense of expectation for the Yitian version of the animation of "Spirit Cage" is not as low as Lao Zhang.

In other words, if you want him to be satisfied, you must do better than the original, and at the very least, you can't be worse than the original.

Otherwise, he would have been disappointed.

Lao Zhang, who has seen the sample film, does not want to expose the surprise in advance of spoilers, so he did not reveal too much on this topic.

But the joy he showed in his words still made Gu Miao guess something.

The quality should be ok.

Otherwise, Lao Zhang wouldn't be so happy, after all, this is an animation that Wanbao invested money in, if it was made into a piece of, he wouldn't be this expression.

"Okay, since you're going to surprise me, I won't ask more, and I'll watch the anime on time in two days."

】

Gu Miao scratched the back of her ears and asked with interest, "The situation of "Spirit Cage" can be kept secret first, but what about the second season of "Qin Shi Mingyue" broadcast at the same time?" ”

It's a competitor!

Although Xuanji Animation officially announced that the second season of the animation "Qin Shi Mingyue" has found a TV station and will be broadcast in the form of TV animation, not online animation.

At first glance, the other party does not pose a threat to the "Spirit Cage" broadcast on the Internet, and it is not even a competing product, after all, the broadcast platform is different.

But who let Xuanji and Yitian, the two companies, be mistaken by netizens for-for-tat because of the "publicity and promotion" crash?

This incident caused a lot of trouble.

Many netizens are speculating that most of these two families have a big feud, and this time they will definitely fight bloody......

Therefore, Gu Miao wants to ask.

Although he knew that it was fake, Xuanji and Yitian had no contradictions, it was nothing more than a coincidence that the editor posted Weibo at the same time, and then it was maliciously speculated by netizens.

But he can't help but want to see the excitement, he also wants to watch others fight and quarrel, and he likes to fan the fire next to him!
