In the new week, after Xia Yan cooperated with the animation of Slam Dunk and Initial D on Monday and Tuesday to broadcast and promote, in the next two days, there were not so many businesses that he needed to handle.

After he deliberately delegated all kinds of rights about the production of works to the people below, there are no more businesses in the company that need to be handled by Xia Yan as before, unless some large amounts of funds must be signed and sealed by Xia Yan, at least the slam dunk and steel animation that are now on the air, Xia Yan will not care about them for a week or two, and they can also make finished products that can satisfy Xia Yan with quality and quantity.

Even Xia Yan has started to download a bunch of stand-alone games on the computer in the office for a long time, and he spends almost half of the day playing games during the company's working hours.

"That's life!"

After Xia Yan had just cleared a game mini-boss, a sense of accomplishment arose in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh.

But after the small level is cleared, it's time to get down to business, and there are still some documents on the table that need to be handled by Xia Yan as soon as possible.

Looking back on the past few years, there was almost no free time, and all the career was re-engaged, Xia Yan naturally had such a sigh.

It took a few years to set up Xia Tang Animation Production Company, and the level of the company's screenwriting department may still be very average, but the comprehensive strength of other departments is definitely the top in the animation industry of Dragon Kingdom.

As long as Xia Yan can come up with a suitable work, then they will definitely be able to complete the animation product that satisfies Xia Yan.

For example, the animation of Slam Dunk.

The early plot will be complained by fans, which is expected by Xia Yan, but at least the production quality of the animation, anyway, Xia Yan has to say something after watching it.

But

Xia Yan looked at the company's various business reports, as well as the documents about the company's future development plan handed in by the company's subordinates, and he casually flipped through them and put them aside.

Xia Tang Animation Company has developed to the present, and basically the growth rate is slowing down.

This five-year-old company has now become a strong force in the industry in the Dragon Kingdom animation industry, and if you talk about the company's influence, Xia Tang Animation is the first in the industry.

It's just that the limit of the animation production company is here, even in the parallel world, and there is basically no Fortune 500 company that really relies on animation.

The top two-dimensional cultural companies in the parallel world are all engaged in big IP, and then animation is just an operating branch of those companies, which is a means of IP publicity.

For example, Pokémon, is its animation popular?

But Nintendo basically can't see the income from animation, and the majority of Pokémon's income is in games and derivative peripherals.

Xia Yan is only twenty-two years old now, and he must have an idea to make Xia Tang animation comparable to, or even surpass, the parallel world Nintendo.

Merely.

This process is not something that can be done in a few months.

Even if Xia Yan relies on the huge amount of money he has obtained in the animation industry to develop, developing a company is like raising a child, if you give this child ten meals a day, he will not be an adult in a year.

Seeing that the company's game department needed an additional 20 million funds this quarter, Xia Yan thought about it for a while and signed it.

At noon, after Xia Yan processed some documents, the assistant handed over the introduction report of some of the affairs that Xia Yan needed to deal with in the afternoon.

What Beizhou Comics hopes that Xia Yan can play next week's fan meeting organized by the Comics Club.

Liuli Books wanted Xia Yan to cooperate with the company to promote the production and launch of the second season of Sword Art Online in advance, and even wanted Xia Yan to go to the imperial capital to be interviewed by a variety show.

More than half a year after the end, the rebellious Lelouch overseas also set off a huge influence, and overseas fans strongly hope that Xia Yan can have an overseas fan meeting.

The game company of the Dragon Kingdom is interested in Xia Yan's Pokémon, and hopes to jointly develop it with Xia Tang Animation and invest in it.

looked at it casually, Xia Yan wrote all the words of rejection on it.

The fan meeting or something, it doesn't mean much to Xia Yan now.

In the past, he did this because he wanted to have exposure and maintain popularity, but now, in fact, even if he holds 100 similar events a year, it will basically not help him to grow in popularity.

As for the overseas meeting, the intention of a company to invest in Pokémon made Xia Yan roll his eyes.

Definitely refused.

After another two hours of work in the afternoon, finally, everything for today was taken care of.

Xia Yan himself also got off work early, and on the way out of the company, hundreds of employees rushed to greet Xia Yan, drove the car, and in less than half an hour, Xia Yan returned to his home.

The house went in, and it was empty.

Tang Yin is still on a business trip in the coastal city and will not come back until tomorrow.

Mo Ran basically didn't respond to the invitation of Beizhou Comics because Xia Yan was too salty, so she became the sweetheart of Beizhou Comics Club, and in addition to comic drawing, she also had to satisfy the enthusiasm of tens of millions of comic fans in Dragon Country, and ran around in the first-tier cities of Dragon Country.

Song Lingyun is similar, although as long as she sees Xia Yan, her eyes will be weird, but as one of the top families in the Dragon Kingdom after Xia Yan, she also has to be responsible for the activities of the book club and promote her works.

After all, her new work has been serialized for so long, and the average volume sales are almost 20 million copies.

The gap with Sword Art Online is still not small, but the pillar of the Liuli Book Society, the current Song Lingyun is definitely one of them.

Xia Yan thought carefully about the recent situation of the three people who had the best relationship with him, he had graduated less than a year ago, but except for Tang Yin because he was boyfriend and girlfriend, Mo Ran and Song Lingyun had no contact with him much less than before.

It hasn't happened for a month that everyone gets up early in the morning to have breakfast together.

Thinking of this, Xia Yan let out a long sigh.

Dealing with the relationship with Mo Ran, Xia Yan thinks that it is quite good, just like Tang Yin said, maybe in the past few years of cooperation, she has a good impression of herself.

But the good feeling thing, with the passage of time, coupled with the fact that she has already dated Tang Yin, will also be pressed in her heart, and it should dissipate over time.

At least Xia Yan doesn't have a strange sense of atmosphere with Mo Ran now.

As for the relationship with Song Lingyun.

Xia Yan is now only maintaining contact with her at the level of friends, and at a deeper level, such as going out to eat together, watching movies, going shopping or something, Xia Yan has rejected Song Lingyun several times in the past half a year, and Song Lingyun can't do anything about Xia Yan.

She may be more persistent and a little in love, but Xia Yan has to restrain herself, otherwise there is a high probability that she will end up with chicken feathers.

Xia Yan didn't feel that after he really made a mistake, he could perfectly handle the emotional relationship with Tang Yin.

And

Although Xia Yan is still young, considering that Tang Yin is seven or eight years older than him, Xia Yan is also ready to wait until after the broadcast of these works this year to propose to Tang Yin.

Eating takeaway dinner at home alone, Xia Yan is thinking about his career and the follow-up plan of his life.

In April, the temperature gradually rises.

Weeks have passed, and the Dragon Kingdom animation industry has ushered in the biggest carnival in recent years.

In the past, Xia Yan's works were basically outstanding in the market, but in this quarter, it is Xia Yan's works that stand out in the Three Kingdoms.

The initial D, Slam Dunk, and Fullmetal Alchemist, which were broadcast on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday respectively, have their own discussions and heats.

In terms of ratings, the steel chain remained at around 6.3%, the slam dunk at 5.9%, and the initial D at 5.5%, although there was a gap between them.

But in the fan group, the fans of the three works are arguing with each other, and they don't let each other go.

After the plot of Steelforge entered April, the main line began to become clear.

The conspiracy of the android group, the wrongness of the empire, and the enemies codenamed Seven Sins encountered by the protagonist Edward.

The slow development of the plot brings fans a strong sense of substitution in the world, especially the death of Hughes in the middle, which deceived a large wave of fans' tears.

Overall, the ratings of the steel chain are also slowly rising, not as fluctuating as Lelouch, but they are indeed stable.

The situation with the initial text D is similar.,The base number of fans of the original comic is here.,The ratings are not as good as the steel refining just because the animation production company behind it is promoted.,The production quality is much worse than the steel chain.,And strictly speaking,The initial D summer tree terrier is also a double-edged sword.,Happy people will be interested in the initial D after seeing similar stalks.,But as soon as the pure love party heard that there was a green hat.,It's easy not to watch this animation.。

Among the three works, in fact, the most controversial is slam dunk.

Serialized for several episodes, the protagonist is still doing some basic training, clashing with a bad boy, leaving the basketball club all of a sudden, and being coaxed by the head coach of the judo club with a photo of the heroine

Although Xia Yan has tried to reduce the plot in the early stage of slam dunk, many fans still feel that these plots in the early stage of slam dunk are very scattered.

Bad fighting, funny, everyday, all the treasures are touched, except basketball

"So this animation is called Slam Dunk, Slam Dunk and Master. Until now, I have only seen the protagonist fight very strongly, and he is a master of causing trouble. ”

"I'm confused, too."

"Don't pay too much attention to the title of the work, I think this kind of funny plot is quite interesting anyway, and I laugh every week so much that my stomach hurts."

"What gorilla eats big bananas, killed for a thousand years, the old thief is too imaginative, I think he just forgot what basketball setting is, and let the protagonist play like this, I will definitely watch it."

"In terms of funny animation, it is basically impossible to surpass Lelouch's results, and there is indeed a market for comedy works in the Dragon Kingdom, but there is definitely no way for funny works to stand at the top of the industry."

"Come on, it's like the old thief normally writes that the protagonist plays basketball, and the popularity of the slam dunk master can surpass Lelouch, and the basketball theme is more niche than the racing theme of the initial D."

"So 90% of the fans of the initial D don't run the mountain race, people can watch it with relish, you don't always talk about the domestic basketball hobby group, I didn't know anything about the rules of basketball before I first became a master, and I still watched it every week with relish."

"I have a hunch. In fact, the old thief, a slam dunk master, may be directly bloody. Of course, when I say blood, I don't mean that the ratings are directly reduced to 1%, which is unrealistic, but that the popularity will decline sharply in the future, and it may be reduced to less than 3%. ”

"Well, why is this retarded remark coming again? The old thief animation has only been on the air for a few weeks, so be a little patient, right? Do you really think the old thief is fooling around with spending hundreds of millions on this animation? We all feel that the early plot is a little flawed, and the old thief will not be clear? ”

"Seriously, although the plot in the early stage of slam dunk feels like it has little to do with basketball, but at least the character shaping of the protagonist is very good, anyway, I like the protagonist, although he is a bad boy, loves to fight, and has no brains, but just watching his actions, the mood is very happy, and the uncomfortable emotions are gone."

"I'm also an old thief, if I named this animation "The Daily Life of a Funny Bad Man", I'll also watch this animation.,Essentially, I think the plot in the early stage of slam dunk is fine.,It's just that it's not too close to basketball, which causes everyone to criticize.。 ”

"Look first, then question. The example of the outbreak in the early stage of the old thief's work hurts too much, only new fans will immediately jump out to criticize, and the old fans don't speak, waiting for the plot behind the slam dunk to get on track and hit the questioning person's face. ”

After all, Slam Dunk is the animation work with the largest single-episode investment in the history of the Dragon Kingdom, and its launch is due to the expectations of a large group of people in the Dragon Kingdom animation industry.

In essence, there is nothing wrong with the plot in the early stage of slam dunk, although Xia Yan deleted these plots, he only let it quickly enter the main line first, that is, the plot of the county selection competition of the national competition.

In the original animation of Slam Dunk, the protagonist's first official game had to be a friendly match with Lingnan High School, and more than a dozen episodes of the animation were broadcast at that time.

The basketball animation that takes more than a dozen episodes for the protagonist to touch the ball on the court will indeed make fans complain.

It's a bit like the essay is off topic, and the strict grading teacher, that is, the animation audience of the Dragon Kingdom, will definitely complain.

Xia Yan himself can also detect the problem, so the plot of Sakuragi Hanamichi playing treasure in the early stage, and everyone shopping and doing nothing every day has been reduced to less than six episodes.

These daily plots are completely retained for the character building part of Sakuragi Hanamichi.,Other side details are omitted.,If necessary,,The follow-up can be supplemented by the animation bd of the content.。

Xia Yan also continued to pay attention to the comments of fans within the Dragon Kingdom on Slam Dunk during this time.

At this stage, some fans are just impatient, and they can't see the protagonist playing basketball games for most of the day, and they are a little impetuous.

But a considerable number of other fans have directly watched Slam Dunk as a funny animation, which is definitely not Xia Yan's original intention.

Another two weeks passed

Finally, after the protagonist's retirement crisis is over, Hanamichi returns to the basketball club again and undergoes solid basic training.

And the plot of Slam Dunk has officially entered the main line.

Well, at the end of the latest episode, finally. It is clearly predicted in the plot that Xiangbei will have a basketball game in the plot of the next chapter.

The gears of fate are slowly turning, and the animation fans of the Dragon Kingdom, it is still unclear that the animation of Slam Dunk will quickly transform after the plot of the friendly match with Lingnan High School, from a daily animation of a bad teenager to the most enthusiastic and classic work in the history of the Dragon Kingdom Sports.. Not one of them.
