Chapter 173: Rising Popularity and the Emperor Star Award

In the Dragon Kingdom animation industry, for an innovative and potential work, both practitioners and audiences are very responsive.

Like this season's broadcast of more than 100 animations, the three works ranked 123rd, Mechanical City, Dragon's Secret Treasure, and Throbbing.

They are now in their sixth episode, with ratings of 3.52%, 3.31% and 3.13%.

And it is also a result that is only available in the good time broadcast on Saturday and Sunday.

Although the ratings of the sixth episode of the first episode of Madoka are still in the range of 2%, the ratings of the third rebroadcast broke through the 3% mark.

In fact, a work has to have so many fans to have such high ratings, since the ratings of the replay can reach 3.03%, it means that the actual potential number of fans of this work has basically grown to a level similar to the first three works in just a few days after the broadcast of six episodes.

At this time, let's take a look at the production companies and production costs of the three works.

Mechanical City, one of the three major animation companies in the Dragon Kingdom, Yuanling Animation single-handedly adapted, the global sales of the original game exceeded 10 million, not to mention that the investment cost of this animation alone exceeded 80 million, and tens of millions of dollars were spent on publicity, that's it, only now has the current 3.52% ratings.

The Secret Treasure of the Dragon, the two works of throbbing, are also adapted from the popular and comic works by the other two of the three major animation production companies of the Dragon Kingdom, Lu Zhou Animation and Long Yang Animation, and they also spent sixty or seventy million respectively to produce this animation.

But what do you see now?

A low-cost investment of 16 million.,Old routine magical girl animation,In the sixth episode of the broadcast,Even the ratings are about to catch up with these three works.,And now in the major animation forums,In the fan base,It's almost a group of people who discuss the animation of magical girl Madoka,Compared with these other three works, there is an overwhelming number advantage.。

Now this situation does make many people in the animation industry feel a little outrageous.

In the past, it didn't mean that there was no kind of animation produced at a small cost, such as the rise of the Dark Horse Gang, but these works are without exception, and people just have low production costs, not poor production teams.

But the magic circle,The production level of the animation production team is just like that.,The members are also some guerrillas in the animation industry of the magic capital.,In fact, the quality of animation is not high.,Can develop all the way to the current popularity.

It's basically up to this script.

Who is the "warrior of love"?

One day, this question began to be asked by many people in the Dragon Kingdom animation industry.

Especially some practitioners in the animation industry, anyway, there are so many popular animations in Dragon Country, and the rise of the magical girl Madoka this season just makes the animations in the top three ratings have a sense of crisis, and for others, they are happy to watch the show.

"So no one knows who the warrior of love is?"

"Even if the big guy opens the vest, it can't be hidden so deeply, right? The big guy will also pull a few acquaintances to form a team when he opens the vest, and none of those people have come out to reveal the identity of the warrior he loves? ”

"I feel that many of the three major animation companies in Dragon Country are probably a little uncomfortable now. It would be a shame to be defeated by Madoka Magica's work at nine o'clock on Thursday night. ”

"Don't blow it too far, Madoka Magical Girl is only the sixth episode, and the plot of the third episode is a little bit unexpected by the audience, an animation, it is impossible to rely on the innovative plot of two episodes to turn the world upside down."

"But. . . Who knows what strange developments will come after the work of Madoka Magical Girl? Can you still look at this work with a regular magical girl-themed anime? After watching the sixth episode, can you guess what the plot of the seventh episode will be about? ”

"Heh, anyway, I don't believe that a screenwriter in the industry will open a vest number and no one knows, maybe this beloved warrior is just a rookie animation screenwriter. And the most common mistake newcomers make is to be anticlimactic. ”

"That's it.,How about we make a bet.,I'll bet on the animation of the magical girl Madoka.,Until it ends, it will definitely pull down one of the three popular animated mechanical cities of this quarter.,The secret treasure of the dragon and the throbbing of one of them.,The final ratings squeezed into the top three in this quarter's animation market.,If the final result is like this.,How about you invite me to have afternoon tea for half a month? Anyway, our two companies are so close, just one street away. ”

"Then what if the plot of Madoka magica's back collapses?"

"Well, then I'll invite you to afternoon tea for a month."

“.”

"That, Lao Xiao, it's okay, can you chase girls like this? Whoever wins or loses this bet with you, you can trick Deputy Director Lin into dating you for at least half a month, right? ”

In the magic capital area, in a research group of animation industry practitioners, a group of active group friends have been discussing the animation of the magical girl Madoka since early in the morning.

It's not that the big-budget animation works produced by the three major animation companies have not overturned, but it is the first time that a newly established animation company's work has been forced so close to the ratings list.

Ordinary animation practitioners are happy to eat melons.

The members of the production team of the Dragon's Secret Treasure, Mechanical City, and Throbbing Trio Animation also felt an inexplicable pressure coming.

Within Xia Tang Animation Production Company, in a company with a total of dozens of members, everyone was in a state of collective excitement during this time.

After all, the people who can be recruited into the company by Tang Yin must have their basic business ability, but.

Everyone has a rough career path anyway. Either he was excluded from the former company, or the place he stayed in before was too depressing, or he didn't meet competition but was not a relational household.

That's why they gathered together in Xia Tang Animation Production Company, and everyone didn't think that they could make a big career in this start-up. Why do you want to pursue so much? It's not the time to choose a major in the college entrance examination as a teenager, thinking that I can single-handedly change the animation industry of the Dragon Kingdom.

After so many years, many people have been hit by reality and just want to mess around.

However.

The current achievements of the animation of the magical girl Madoka have made a group of production team backbones in the animation production team, including Yao Jiyong and Tang Xin, feel a sense of achievement.

When they were teenagers, the reason why they chose to major in animation was to create this kind of animation!

I and others are not engaged in some assembly line animation, but they are really making an excellent animation that is innovative, can touch the hearts of the audience, and makes the animation industry change to a certain extent.

People from the outside world don't know the plot behind the magic circle, but now, this anime is being made to the eleventh episode. They know the entire script of this anime.

Now that the plot has this kind of achievement and discussion, they can't guess what it will be like when the next six episodes of this animation are broadcast.

Compared with the plot of the last six episodes of this animation, the so-called innovation of the first six episodes, the so-called depression and tear-jerking are simply pediatric.

Will this animation be abandoned by the audience and abused because of its subsequent increasingly dark and cruel plot?

Or is it said. After the sixth episode of this anime aired, the skyrocketing popularity in the animation world was just the beginning, and it was far from its limit.

Some people in the company can faintly feel that the work of Moyuan may make waves in the industry.

May 13

The final results of the most dazzling Emperor Star Award in the Dragon Kingdom have been released.

After nearly a month of selection, Xia Yan cooperated with the book club and the various requirements of the jury, participated in the recording of videos, and took photos

Finally, on this day, he was invited to the imperial capital area to participate in the selection of the Emperor Star Award.

Twenty popular writers from the Dragon Kingdom gathered together, and at the venue of thousands of people, the host revealed the award-winning rankings of the works of these twenty writers one by one.

Hundreds of cameras filmed the movements of these 20 writers from all angles of the venue.

Xia Yan was observing other people, and other people were also observing Xia Yan.

After all, in a group of thirty-four-year-old families, nineteen-year-old Xia Yan is too young, and his appearance is obviously much higher than others.

In front of the TV, the audience looked at a tall and handsome teenager in a white suit on the screen.

Xia Yan after makeup may be at an upper-middle level in the entertainment industry, but among the male writers in the circle, this is Wang Bang.

After all, most of the other male writers are fat houses, and Xia Yan is too eye-catching to be mixed in.

Tang Yin and Song Lingyun stayed in the company together, and watched the Emperor Star Award ceremony being broadcast live on TV with dozens of people in the company.

"The boss is so handsome."

"That's genius."

"Handsome and talented, this is the boss, it's a pity that my daughter is older than him, and she doesn't look good, otherwise I really have to introduce him to a wave."

Song Lingyun and Tang Yin looked at Xia Yan in a daze.

"Alas, who would have thought that two years ago he was just a high school student with only a few thousand yuan in his body and a family accident." Tang Yin was a little emotional at this time.

"I always feel that if he continues to develop like this, he may soon reach places beyond our reach."

"No" Song Lingyun stared at the clip of Xia Yan's face that happened to be played on the TV.

"At this time next year, I will also appear at the award ceremony of the Emperor Star Award like Xia Yan now."

"Huh? So confident? Rather, I haven't asked you for a long time, what is your current ranking of the "Blade of the Other End" in the "Glass" journal? Tang Yin asked curiously.

Journal. Ninth! Song Lingyun paused, and then said.

"Still. I am confident that I will be able to reach the top five or even the top three picks of the journal within three months. I've racked my brains this year to conceive this work.,The serialized plot that starts next month is about to start working.。 If all goes well, I'd like to try out what it's like to be at the top of a journal."

After all, before, he had been suppressed by Xia Yan.

Song Lingyun stared at Xia Yan's face on the TV without blinking, while Tang Yin looked at Song Lingyun's face and was silent for a long time.

People, there must be goals, if Xia Yan hadn't inspired her fighting spirit, would Song Lingyun have been able to grow so fast in creation?

The other side.

In a girl's room, Mo Ran put down the comic pen in her hand, and her eyes were also looking at Xia Yan, who showed her face at the Emperor Star Awards, through her laptop.

Seeing Xia Yan in front of the TV made Mo Ran really feel the height of Xia Yan in the two-dimensional industry at this moment.

The scene of the Emperor Star Award.

The rankings of the works of one writer after another were revealed.

By the time of the top ten, before the name of the parasitic beast was read, Bai Xuan, who was present, was already so excited that he was about to shout out in the venue.

finally

When the sixth-ranked work was revealed, when the word parasitic beast was pronounced, Xia Yan got up and went on stage under the focus of a group of camera lenses.

In fact, even the works that ranked seventh in the Emperor Star Award have sold an average of seven million copies in a single volume in the Dragon Kingdom, which is one million copies higher than that of the parasitic beast.

The fact that the parasitic beast can rank sixth is actually due to the fact that the theme of this work is a little more lofty, and the environmental elements promoted in the work are in line with the ideology of the dragon kingdom.

These things are also one of the reference criteria for awards, otherwise, if a film relies on the Yellow Storm bloody element to sell particularly high, it can still have a good ranking in the selection of the Emperor Star Award, isn't it a joke?

"Sixth?" Xia Yan came to the stage, holding the medal awarded by the sixth place of the Emperor Star Award, and his expression was not excited at all.

"Oh, why does Teacher Yuanqing have this expression? Are you not feeling well today? The host asked with a smile next to him.

"Well, because sixth is the worst result I've ever had since I debuted in the industry." Xia Yan looked at the camera and said with a smile.

"I don't feel like I'm getting better, so I'm just"

“.” Compere.

Is it so straightforward?

This is a young man.

"Then Teacher Yuanqing, before the sixth place in this Emperor Star Award, what is the order of the award you participated in?" The moderator asked.

"The first of the new gods." Xia Yan paused for a moment, and then said in a joking tone.

"I'll be a little happier next time."

Then he didn't say anything, and hurriedly stepped down with the medal.

But although he didn't say anything later, his meaning was already obvious.

His goal is to be the first in the Emperor Star Award.

This time sixth, he was not satisfied.

Next time if you come back to this award ceremony

First.

The audience in front of the TV and the audience at the scene all understood Xia Yan's meaning in an instant.

And he is confident that there will definitely be works in the top 20 of the Emperor Star Award in the future, and he will come to this scene.

Arrogant?

Arrogant?

Proud?

Or is it said.

Is this self-confidence?

All in all, many reporters on the scene have already come up with half of the fierce report in their minds, waiting to go back tonight and rush to report on this young family overnight.

In the next two days, the Dragon Kingdom Light Circle was immersed in the afterglow of the Emperor Star Award selection, the names of each light writer who won a good ranking, and the works were transmitted through various serialized magazines and network information in the world.

And the name "Yuanqing".

also started from this night, because of the history of the work of parasitic beast serialized on "Liuli", and the sixth selection result of the parasitic beast emperor star award, Yiyue is at the same level as many well-known light writers in the Dragon Kingdom, and is regarded as a first-line light writer by the industry.
