Chapter 712 - Oscar Nomination (Ask for Subscription)

Huang Kun's asking price is very high.

After all, in his mind, the animation "Super Beast Armament" is his proudest work so far.

Because of this, he doesn't want to sell the first round of broadcast rights of "Super Beast Arm" at a low price, but will try his best to fight for a high price worthy of the quality of the work.

Of course, that's what the saying goes......

Considering the average purchase price of domestic animation, it is generally very low, and some even pay the TV station upside down, just to be able to broadcast on the stars.

Therefore, Huang Kun's requirements are still too harsh for many TV channels, especially children's channels with insufficient advertising revenue.

There's a trivia!

Since the establishment of Wanbao Animation, domestic animation has experienced two rounds of "price reduction tide".

The first round of price reductions originated from the dimensionality reduction blow of the animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".

Because Pleasant Goat sells cheaply, the replay cycle is long, and the ratings can still be firmly in the forefront, other animation works have to reduce the price together, and they can't be sold if they don't reduce the price.

The second round of price reductions was mainly affected by policy changes. The official came forward to heavily subsidize the animation production industry, and the support subsidies given were very attractive.

When it's the most exaggerated.

There are some stinky and shameless animation companies that do not want to make progress, and even before producing an animation work, they have written "eating subsidies to earn national money" into the business plan.

Affected by this, the price of TV broadcasting rights of many domestic animations is simply cheaper than that of cabbage......

Fortunately!

The official probably also realized that relying on such a "forced blood transfusion" to support the domestic animation industry would not work at all. In doing so, we can only cultivate a bunch of waste that does not want to make progress and the mud cannot support the wall.

Therefore, since the end of last year, the corresponding support subsidies have been reduced a lot.

But the problem is still that problem.

In this context, it is difficult for the animation "Super Beast Armament" to sell at a price that satisfies Huang Kun.

Gu Miao tried her best to talk.

He made an appointment with the heads of more than a dozen TV stations to talk about it.

Probably because his face is very effective, seven or eight TV stations have expressed their willingness to look at Gu Miao's face and increase the price of the animation "Super Beast Armament" appropriately.

Among them, the Shonan Children's Channel and Kuka Children's Channel, which have a close cooperation with Wanbao Animation and can even be called "brothers", accepted Huang Kun's offer.

But they also have requirements.

The premise of high premium, on the one hand, is to give Gu Miao face and Wanbao face.

On the other hand, they also believe in the rhetoric of Gu Miao and Huang Kun, and believe that the second season of "Super Beast Armament", which is the second half, will be a god unfolding and detonate public opinion on the whole network.

But what if you are deceived?

When doing business, you have to plan ahead.

Even if everyone knows that with the scale of a company as large as Wanbao, it is unlikely to tell such a lie, but everything must be prepared for both.

Therefore, Shonan Children's Channel and Kuka Children's Channel demanded that if the ratings of the second season of "Super Beast Armament" fell below a certain threshold, then Gu Miao's "Bear Infested" being produced would have to be sold to them at a low price as compensation.

“OK! No problem! ”

This is not a serious bet, it is nothing more than a private agreement between several parties, Gu Miao agreed without thinking about it.

He has a lot of confidence in "Ultra Beast Arms", and likewise, he can understand the concerns of the TV station.

But there is one thing to say.

What the TV station is worried about is not very likely to happen, because the "Super Beast Armament" project is really not as simple as they think!

……

Tuesday, January 20th.

It is the lunar month, every household is immersed in the joy of the upcoming New Year, college students, high school students, junior high school students and elementary school students have holidays, and the streets and alleys are full of children scurrying around.

The Wanbao 2015 Jiangchuan Animation and Game Carnival, which just ended, gave Liu Xing a great shock.

Why?

Because at this anime and game carnival, Wanbao (North America) Branch brought a documentary that tells the story of the birth of "Cat and Mouse".

It was after watching this documentary that he realized that animation creation is not easy.

Originally, the animation that was broadcast on TV seemed to be only a few minutes, but when it was produced, the workload was calculated by "frames", and every frame was so beautiful.

It's just amazing!

No wonder the animated "Cat and Mouse: Puss Gets the Boot" was nominated for Best Animated Short Film at the 87th Academy Awards, and he was stunned when he heard it.

"Awesome, Oscar!"

Although it is only a nomination, this is enough to shock Liu Xing and Liu Zida for a whole year.

Don't forget!

According to Gu Sanshui, this is only the first episode of the animation "Cat and Mouse"! Who would have thought that he would have been nominated for an Oscar in the first episode?

"It's a pity ......"

When I thought of an animation like "Cat and Mouse", the first episode was only a little more than eight minutes long, and there was no news from the second episode for a long time, Liu Xing couldn't help but want to curse.

This update is also too weak.

Can't Wanbao learn from friends and do two episodes a day? It's really not good, one episode a day, or even one episode a week!

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated Liu Xing became, sighed like an adult, picked up the TV remote control, and planned to see if there was a replay of the first episode of "Cat and Mouse".

He wanted to relive it.

An artistic-level animation like this will not get tired of watching it several times.

It's a pity that he has changed more than a dozen children's and cartoon channels in a row, but he has never found a replay of "Cat and Mouse".

Even the first season of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" 530, such an old animation has been replayed, but there is no "Cat and Mouse".

It's embarrassing!

Just when Liu Xing was disappointed and was about to turn off the TV and go to find a mouse and keyboard to go out and play, suddenly an animated clip appeared on the TV screen that he had never seen before.

"Ultra Beast Armament!"

"Phantom Beast!"

I saw that in the picture, a young man in red armor threw a punch, and the ground suddenly glowed with red ghostly light, and a strange totem rose a point of light, and a red mecha-style monster suddenly appeared.

"Ultra Beast Armament!"

"Dragon War Beast!"

On the other side, the boy in blue armor also summoned an exclusive super beast god, but his totem appeared in the sky.

"That's cool!"

Excellent 3D modeling, as well as sharp mecha design, made Liu Xing watch with relish.

What animation is this?

Before he could ask questions, he heard an impassioned narration suddenly come from the TV: "This winter vacation, go to the parallel universe with the super beast warriors to save the world!" ”

"January 22nd, see you or leave!"

The picture is dark.

The huge icon logo of "Super Beast Armament" appeared on the TV screen, and finally let Liu Xing know the name of this animation.

"Will it be broadcast the day after tomorrow?"

"Ultra Beast Armament? It's a lot of fun! I just don't know, is there any good "Fruit Treasure Special Attack"? ”

Liu Xing was very interested in the so-called "Super Beast Armament", so he wrote down the premiere date and planned to see it when the time came.
