Chapter 1125: Change
In the new year, Gu Miao almost devoted herself to the production of the film "Toy Story".
Except for the fact that after the summer vacation, he found a reliable primary school for his son, and he really didn't care about anything else.
However, this year, nothing major happened, and except for the second season of "Mobile Suit Gundam", there were no particularly popular works.
If I have to say it, it is probably the second season of "LoveLive!" conducted by the Neon Division, which is very popular in the entire virtual idol circle.
There is no Dragon Ball sequel this year.
The reason is very simple, Nishio, who is known as the "father of Dragon Ball" by countless fans, had an operation at the beginning of the year and couldn't work properly for a long time.
This directly led to the "Dragon Ball" series, which was popular all over the world and had unprecedented influence, was forced to break for a whole year.
No way!
Nishio is the pillar of Dragon Ball, and without him, the Neon Division will really not be able to find a replacement for a while, so naturally it will not be able to make qualified Dragon Ball works.
However, as far as Gu Miao knew.
During the time when Nishio was recuperating at home, he seemed to have thought more about "Dragon Ball", and it is estimated that there will be a big move next year.
It can't be Dragon Ball Super, right?
Gu Miao couldn't figure out what Nishio's so-called "new thinking" was, anyway, it would be good for him to take a year off, if it wasn't for the year's slot, "Mobile Suit Gundam" wouldn't be able to enter the neon market.
That's right!
In the year that Dragon Ball went off the air, Mobile Suit Gundam took the opportunity to break into the neon market and won the love of countless anime fans.
As for the European and American markets, don't think about it.
Europe and the Americas, which are the home of the American comic superhero series, it is difficult for foreign works to gain a foothold and become popular.
Since the success of the remake of "Superman", Dave and Nan Tong have collaborated on many TV animations such as "Batman", "Iron Man", "Wonder Woman", and "The Flash".
The combination of DC + Marvel is not a big problem to sweep across Europe and the United States.
It's not just animations that are blooming everywhere!
According to Dave, starting next year, they will also carry out live-action film and television adaptations of their superhero IPs, and launch more superhero TV series, superhero movies, and so on.
This is a job that is difficult to achieve by Wanbao Pictures alone.
After all, Wanbao Pictures has only been established for just one year, and its foundation abroad is still too shallow.
Therefore, the film and television adaptations of these superhero IPs basically have the participation of Hollywood film giants, which can be regarded as giving them a piece of the pie.
However, the copyright is in the hands of Wanbao.
There is no need to talk about this, Gu Miao knew that Marvel in the original time and space, in order to survive in the early stage, sold Spider-Man, but it was not successfully recovered many years later.
A lesson from the past, a teacher from the back!
The lesson of Marvel is vivid, Wanbao cooperates with others, and the copyright is pinched to death, no matter which Hollywood giant wants to get involved.
Moreover, the current cooperation is only temporary.
When Wanbao Pictures develops and grows, and has a certain foundation in the European and American film and television circles, there is no need to take the initiative to find others to cooperate, but others take the initiative to come to the door to seek cooperation.
Superheroes are well developed.
On the domestic side, the two paths reserved by Gu Miao for Wanbao Animation, namely Beep Reading and Da Liu, have also developed very well.
Especially Da Liu!
With Wanbao's help, Liu has now quit his job as a thermal power plant engineer to concentrate on writing at home, publishing a number of far-reaching science fiction books.
Not only him, but also a large number of depressed science fiction writers, also received the support and funding of Wanbao Animation, and for a time there was a "science fiction creation fever" in China, and a large number of science fiction masterpieces were born one after another.
Da Liu has a saying that is very good.
Creation requires environment and conditions, and if you eat the last meal every day without the next meal, you will definitely not be able to create a good work.
Wanbao provides everyone with a worry-free guarantee of food and clothing, so that everyone can give full play to their brains and create science fiction in a relatively comfortable and safe environment, which naturally has today's science fiction fever.
Of course!
Wan Bao is not acting as a good person in this way, Gu Miao is just eyeing the adaptation rights of most excellent science fiction works.
It's mutually beneficial!
It is impossible for 100,000 yuan to sell the three-body problem again. Wanbao will not treat these science fiction writers badly, and the conditions given are absolutely generous, and naturally no one will refuse to hand over the adaptation rights to Wanbao.
The same goes for beep reading.
Although he has always been in the second position in the industry, he can't compare to Penguin Online Reading, but Gu Miao's investment in these years is not small.
With so much money thrown in, not to mention how much splash it makes, at least there is still feedback that should be there......
"Three years of son-in-law, I'm the fairy king and don't pretend" is the first influential online text IP under Beep Reading, and it has also received great attention from Wanbao, and animation, comics, games and TV series have all been adapted.
And after the son-in-law Immortal King, there are several online works that have broken the circle of influence and are loved by the majority of readers.
Gu Miao did not rush to develop these IPs.
He planned to hold it in his hands for a few years, and when the penguins were weak, he would throw them a fatal blow.
This idea has also been supported by a number of authors.
Now take their works to PK with Penguin's online masterpieces, which are mostly cannon fodder, and there is no big breakthrough.
But if you cover it for a few years, wait for the IP that Penguin should develop almost completely, and then throw it out, it is estimated that the effect will be very good, and the potential of these works can be maximized.
In the blink of an eye, Wanbao has been established for ten years!
On the occasion of the 10th anniversary, Wanbao Animation also showed sincerity, and the "Journey to the West 3D" animation, which took three years to create, became the commemorative work of the 10th anniversary of Wanbao.
It's a masterpiece!
It lasted three years, costed hundreds of millions of yuan, the chief director Ma Kui, the chief producer Gu Miao, and the tripartite joint production of CCTV Animation, Meiying Studio and Wanbao Animation, this lineup alone can scare many people to death.
Not to mention, "Journey to the West 3D" is different from other animations, starting with a set of CCTV broadcasts at 20:00 in the evening, which is the first cartoon to appear on the evening prime time of CCTV's comprehensive channel.
The row is directly full!
It is not unreasonable for CCTV to attach so much importance to this animation, after all, this animation is the most domestic TV animation in all aspects, whether it is of special significance or production level.
This kind of animation is also reasonable to be broadcast on CCTV at 8 o'clock in the evening.
The audience was a little surprised at first, questioning how a cartoon could be broadcast on CCTV at 8 o'clock in the evening?
But when they finished watching the first episode of "Journey to the West 3D", they instantly shut up.
Is this really a cartoon?
Boy!
The concept that "children only watch animation" that everyone originally held was instantly defeated by the animation "Journey to the West 3D".
The production of the animation "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" seems to everyone to be very sophisticated, but in front of "Journey to the West 3D", it still looks too rough.
That's animation!
To paraphrase Gu Miao's point of view, this animation gathers the efforts of CCTV Animation, Meiying Studio and Wanbao Animation, and its production level can already be called a "masterpiece".
The most important thing is that this animation is still an adaptation of the well-known "Journey to the West", and the story is very appetizing to everyone.
There was no precedent for this kind of work before.
In terms of production, it is not much worse than "Battle of Two Cities", and the story is still everyone's most intimate Journey to the West, and its popularity can be imagined.
As soon as the animation "Journey to the West 3D" was broadcast, the ratings jumped to the top of the list, becoming the most popular TV show of the year.
Even this animation has done one thing that many people can't think of......
That is to make many young people honestly put down their mobile phones and computers, squat in front of the TV, and watch TV with full attention as they did when they were children.
That's pretty good!
You must know that mobile phones and computers are not small in the attraction of young people, and they can be willing to put down their mobile phones, which is enough to see how good "Journey to the West 3D" is.
Many netizens have left messages saying that "Journey to the West 3D" made him get it back, and he first saw the feeling of "86 version of Journey to the West" on TV.
This remark has also been recognized by many people.
Indeed, although comparing the 86 version of the Journey to the West TV series with an animation, it belongs to Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong, which is a bit funny.
But these two works give people almost the same feeling, that is, I want to know the follow-up too much, as long as I look at it, I am reluctant to change the channel, and I am reluctant to leave the TV.
"It's a pity!"
"If "Journey to the West 3D" was born more than ten or twenty years ago, the ratings would definitely hit an unheard of all-time high."
Lao Zhang's muttering made Gu Miao feel very funny.
Twenty years ago, if there was an animation like "Journey to the West 3D", the ratings must have exploded, and maybe they could replicate the grand scene of thousands of empty alleys when "Desire" was broadcast.
But then again.
Twenty years ago, even if I wanted to do "Journey to the West 3D" animation, I didn't have the technical strength I have now!
If I had done it at that time, I don't know what it would have been...... Maybe it's a remake of xx's story?
……
Maqui got his wish.
"Journey to the West 3D", which has been silently polished for three years, has become his masterpiece, and it has also made him even more famous.
At this time, it is said that he is the second largest animation director of Wanbao Animation after Gu Miao, and it is estimated that no one will deny it.
Even Gu Miao is grateful for the large number of works, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to surpass the amazing influence of "Journey to the West 3D" in terms of a single work.
Ma Kui, who became famous, soon chose to be rotten.
In his words, all the awards that should be won have been won, and the honors that should have been won have been obtained, whether it is an animated movie or a TV animation, he has stood in the top group of people in history, what else is the need to work hard?
The only fun he has now is to help the prince ascend to the throne and mix up the merits of the dragon.
There is no need for Gu Miao to take the initiative to speak, he actively runs to pick up Xiao Sensen from school every day, and buys him a sugar gourd to buy a gunpla, the main one is closer than his father.
Xiao Mori likes Uncle Ma.
At a young age, he doesn't know what sugar-coated cannonballs are, but he only thinks that Ma Gonggong is really reliable, and he must be reused in the future.
The position of the head of Ouchi belongs to him!
Gu Miao didn't bother to care about Ma Kui and the prince's conspiracy, anyway, if he didn't die for a day, the prince would be the prince after all.
Besides, Duoduo is now his sweetheart, what is his son? Get out of here!
Gu Miao has a son and a daughter.
The son looks like him, almost exactly like when he was a child, and he talks and acts the same, which is annoying to look at.
The daughter looks like her mother, gentle and considerate, this is his favorite cub, and he can't bear to murder her at all.
Cocoa is the other way around.
Gu Miao is a strict father to his son and a loving father to his daughter, but Keke is a loving mother to his son and a strict mother to his daughter.
The main hit is a red face and a white face.
With this pair of children, as well as a wife who loves each other, and a harmonious and beautiful family atmosphere, Gu Miao feels that she is already very satisfied in this life.
For him, career is at best a spice.
Maybe when he was young, he would care more about his career, hoping that the company would become stronger and stronger, and the more money he earned, the better......
But when he attended the funeral of Mr. Xiong, he changed this view and felt that a healthy family and harmony and consummation were the greatest happiness.
"Toy Story" was filmed for two years.
The main reason is that Gu Miao's cervical spine is not good halfway, and under Coco's suggestion, he recuperated for a period of time.
This movie is Gu Miao's last work as a director!
Since the release of "Toy Story", Gu Miao has not served as a director anymore, at most there is a producer.
So this is also regarded by many people as a symbol of Gu Sanshui's retirement.
In fact, there is no retirement......
Gu Miao was just troubled by cervical spondylosis, and felt that her body was more important than anything else, so she followed her daughter-in-law's advice and no longer participated in animation production.
But he couldn't be idle, although he cultivated for a while, but after his 40th birthday, he still returned to work, pulled his apprentice Guo Hongwei, and tossed a theatrical version of "Digimon".
The good news is that the word of mouth is good!
The bad news is that because it happened to crash into the "Iron Man" live-action movie of the North American division, the box office was dismal......
Gu Miao scolded Dave.
He finally made a comeback, felt that he had no bottom in his heart, and deliberately pulled his apprentice Xiao Guo as a helper, but was severely suppressed by Dave.
It's just too deceitful!
If it weren't for Dave's hard work for so many years, he would have been arranged to clean the toilet long ago for his disrespectful approach to the chairman.
As she gets older, Gu Miao has also changed.
used to scold people at every turn, but now that I have a certain level of self-cultivation, I won't scold people, and at most I will be yin and yang.
It's not just him, everyone else has changed.
Lao Zhang, the CEO of the group, used to be a gentle person, but now he is more irritable than anyone else, and his voice can be heard from afar.
and Du Hao......
He should be the one who has changed the most, from the earliest ignorant rich second generation, to a lonely middle-aged man, and then to a successful person later, the ups and downs of life are simply not too exciting.
Komori is in junior high school.
Obviously, his grades were okay, but Gu Miao couldn't be happy, because he found out that this kid actually had an underground relationship with Lao Wang's granddaughter.
Isn't this a proper early love?
If Coco hadn't stopped him in time, he would have gone to beat the mandarin duck a long time ago, so that this kid would know what father's love is.
It is definitely taught by Ma Kui, this guy is dedicated to helping the prince to ascend to the throne, without him, how could the prince fall in love?
