Chapter 344: Impact
I thought that tonight's two episodes would be broadcast for welfare, and I could beat the disgusting man Mitsui Shou fiercely with Dry Ikebana, but the Dragon Kingdom slam dunk audience didn't expect that this chapter would directly make them cry when they came to the back.
In some elementary schools with little social experience, junior high school students seem to have only a slight feeling, but in the end, Mitsui Shou's sentence "I want to play basketball!" "With the rendering of the music, they are still very moved.
But for adult animation fans who have already suffered too much social beating, it feels completely different.
Although everyone's experience is very different, but the divergent path in the process of growing up has more or less gone some, and then I look at this animation, and substitute myself a little, and in an instant, I burst into tears.
"Mitsui. Damn, the chapter of the old thief was originally going to introduce this character, I was wrong, I thought that the old thief Jiang Lang was exhausted, so I went to draw the plot of the fight. ”
"I cried, the most outrageous thing is that I cooperated with this BGM, it was really tear-jerking."
"I'm just slightly touched, why do you all look like you're crying, it's so touching?"
"Everyone has a different physique, so I can only say that this animation, this plot is not your thing."
"Trouble with the basketball club is just because he is unwilling, all of Mitsui's actions are because he hasn't given up basketball yet, but. Alas, this is life! ”
"If it's the real world, the two years of going astray are basically a freeze in life, that is, there is a port in Mitsui's mind in the animation, the existence of Coach Anzai."
"I've always felt that Coach Anzai is a marginal person in this animation, but I didn't expect this smiling old man to be so important."
"Real man Mitsui, he should be returning to the basketball club, right?"
"It should be the plot of the next episode!"
"Speaking of which, since the broadcast, the plot of the old thief has progressed very slowly, but I personally think this episode tonight is enough, how slow the previous episodes are, it's worth it."
"I'd like to call it one of the most amazing episodes of sports animation. It's a completely different viewing experience from the previous sports-themed animations where the protagonist pushes all the way. ”
"There's no need to step on one, but I still have to say that if the slam dunk of the old thief can be portrayed like Mitsui Shou in the follow-up, the results of this animation will definitely surpass Lelouch."
"The old thief's works are never based on the subject matter, but on the growth of the characters he created, in this area, the old thief and his peers in the Dragon Kingdom, the advantage is against the sky, and other people are not of the same class as him at all, Lelouch , CC , David , Lucy , Madoka , Xiao Yan , Mitsui Shou These characters are too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."
"Indeed, in the works created by the old thief, the characters in them will have inner growth, and other animation works in the Dragon Kingdom are too different in this. Especially the portrayal of Mitsui Shou tonight, it only took two episodes of the plot to show how he changed from a hot-blooded teenager to a bad character, and then he turned back as a prodigal son in just a moment... Substitute for his life, I really want to cry. ”
"What is the last song, with the plot of Mitsui Shou's prodigal son's return, it is really amazing."
"I already have a premonition that this song will be on the list of major music apps in the Dragon Kingdom tomorrow."
"Needless to say? And I've also seen the major media in the Dragon Kingdom collectively change their faces tomorrow, and lick the funny scenes of the old thief again, what these media can do before, all kinds of condescending accusations and criticisms, almost directly say that the old thief slam dunk This work has collapsed, to be honest, the old thief is broadcast in two episodes today, which is a real slap in the face. ”
"That's right."
This night, Xia Yan's fan base, and the major forums changed their previous doubts about the plot of tonight's slam dunk.
What if the main character of the anime has not participated in an official competition for twenty episodes?
Since it was broadcast, almost one-third of the plot of the animation has depicted the fight between Mitsui Shou and Xiangbei Basketball Club.
All of this has value, gathered in the latest episode of Mitsui Shou's prodigal son, at this moment fans did not complain, but glad that they were not frightened by the previous comments on the Internet, and insisted on chasing the slam dunk animation on time tonight.
The famous scene of an animation must be watched on the TV station for the first time, which is the best.
If you see the overwhelming praise on the entire Internet the next day, and then watch the replay with anticipation and doubt, it is definitely not as good as the experience of watching the premiere directly.
As for the fact that the ratings of Slam Dunk rose to 6.4% the next day, until now, basically fans don't care too much about these statistics.
For Xia Yan now, the ratings of his works are related to his status, and popularity is just the icing on the cake.
Magic Circle, Lelouch and Cyberpunk The three works are actually commercially valuable, and the influence of the works is good, there is a certain gap, but the gap between the ratings data of the three works is not large, and what really causes the difference between the three works is their recognition in the two-dimensional fan group after the end of the work, and the word-of-mouth things.
Fans don't care, the media in Dragon Kingdom won't let go of the opportunity.
For several days in a row, articles about slam dunk were reported, and slam dunk was blown.
Xia Yan has also experienced this kind of scene many times, and after seeing the successful conclusion of the small chapter of Mitsui Shou, and reversing everyone's previous loose impression of the slam dunk plot in the fan group, Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
He is well aware that by now, the loose early plot stage of the Slam Dunk work has ended.
The plot after Mitsui Shou joined the Xiangbei team, even if it is the real main line of slam dunk, the qualifiers for the national competition.
In the parallel world, the original slam dunk animation produced thirty episodes of the plot before advancing the progress here, and in the Dragon Kingdom, no matter how Xia Yan sped up the progress and deleted some unimportant daily plots, he also used twenty episodes of the plot.
That's the case with long-form works, which may not start to get into the theme until dozens of episodes later.
Slam dunk is quite normal.,It's like a tutor in the parallel world.,The daily plot in the early stage is longer than slam dunk.,And it's more boring than slam dunk.,The popularity in the early stage is also sluggish.,But it's also in the comics serialized dozens of words.,Finally entered the battle plot.,Popularity takes off.。
Xia Yan put down the relevant research report in his hand and stretched himself.
It's been a year since graduation, so I don't have to focus on my studies, and Xia Yan has more time to focus on the creation of his works.
Although I am responsible for more works at the same time, I am actually not as busy as when I was in school.
But now Xia Yan is responsible for many works, but they are basically the kind of large-length works.
The Monogatari series can be serialized for a year or two, and the Tian Yuan Breakthrough can also be serialized for half a year.
It would take two or three years for Slam Dunk to animate the prefectural qualifiers and national competitions.
As for Sword Art Online, after the UW chapter is serialized, Xia Yan is ready to let it end for the time being, mainly because the quality of the plot in the back is compared with the previous chapter, Xia Yan thinks there is a gap.
Not to mention hunters, what Xia Yan can do is to make this work temporarily stop after being serialized to the Ant King chapter.
Because he hasn't seen the ending of this work in Yuan Qing's memory so far, he can see a new plot every one or two months.
It is not clear what era Yuan Qing died in that world, and whether he had finished watching the ending of the hunter before he died, these are all unsolved mysteries for Xia Yan.
sorted out the current situation, for almost two or three years, in the field of comics, animation, Xia Yan will have works that will continue to be serialized.
And these works will basically show a trend of rising popularity in the next period of time.
Xia Yan now has a great influence in the two-dimensional industry of the Dragon Kingdom, but in the next two years, as the popularity of these works continues to explode, his influence will continue to expand.
It's just that these are some things that come naturally, and Xia Yan doesn't need to bother and use his brain.
He only needs to hand over the scripts and storyboards of each work to his partners or his employees on time every week, and this group with Xia Yan as the core will automatically push Xia Yan's status up in the industry.
Of course, Xia Yan is also very clear that the rising period of his popularity will definitely end.
The world is not infinite, and the group of two-dimensional enthusiasts is also not unlimited, and the number of Xia Yan's fans will definitely not rise all the time.
Moreover, after the end of works like Slam Dunk and Hunter, he will not be able to come up with more classic works than these.
Normally, a creator of this level of work may have one work in his lifetime, and it will go downhill after it is finished.
It's just that Xia Yan also knows very well that there is no downhill road to development.
After the end of the Sword Art Online, you can serialize Fate, the Demon Forbidden series, and the Dead Fire Sea Dragon Ball after the Hunter ends.
After he reaches the peak of his influence, there is a high probability that he will remain at this peak until he retires from working in the Dragon Kingdom one day.
Thinking of this, Xia Yan had a smile on his face.
"What are you laughing at?"
Tang Yin went on a business trip abroad for half a month, and after negotiating with foreign partners about the peripheral sales and copyright authorization of Xia Yan's works, she basically ate snacks, played with computers, and chased dramas in Xia Yan's office in the past few days, which can be regarded as a small relaxation.
Seeing Xia Yan suddenly laughing there, he was also curious.
"I'm laughing, I've been able to see my life in a few years, or even more than ten years, and I feel it."
"You're so satisfied, that's why you're laughing?"
"No," Xia Yan said after thinking about it.
"I'm just thinking, the creators of the Dragon Kingdom's generation, they probably wish I would retire quickly, but if they enter the industry in ten years, twenty years, or even their sons when they grow up, take a second look. It turns out that the benchmark of this industry is still me. What it would be like. I'm competing with these creators in their twenties, thirties and forties, and twenty years later, their children are still competing with me... Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that I had really become a big demon king. Xia Yan said, his tone even more cheerful.
"What's so funny about that?" Tang Yin said she couldn't understand.
"Well, for example, Song Lingyun is now aiming to surpass me, so what if twenty years later, her descendants will also aim to surpass me?"
As soon as Xia Yan said this, Tang Yin thought about it, and suddenly a sense of comical came up.
"You're thinking too far, Song Lingyun's family is afraid that they still have feelings for you now, can you think so far? Where did she go to the offspring? Tang Yin looked at Xia Yan and said.
"Well, over time, a lot of things will change. The world is so big, Song Lingyun will always look at other places. Xia Yan paused and said.
"I hope so, but from the second year of high school to now, seven years, the gap between you and him in this industry is getting bigger and bigger, just. You and I both know that her goal of catching up with you has never changed, and it has even become stronger. She's a very real person, and I haven't seen her change her goals. Tang Yin said with a sigh.
Xia Yan was silent when he heard this, and then smiled awkwardly, this is where Xia Yan is facing Song Lingyun the most now.
"However, you are quite confident now, listening to your tone, do you think that ten or twenty years later, you will still be able to press a bunch of people in the industry like now?" Tang Yin didn't talk too much about this topic either.
"Pretty much." Xia Yan said with a smile.
"Looking at you like this, it seems that you have planned your development route for a long time in the future." Tang Yin blinked, but didn't continue to ask.
People from the outside world are not clear, can Tang Yin still be unclear?
How did Xia Yan spend two months last year to make the company's four animations that are currently being produced, and arrange the company's workload for the next two or three years.
Tang Yin herself felt that the company had developed to the present, with so many people, Xia Yan could no longer support such a huge creative intensity, and he would gradually retire by creating their work on his own, so that the creators cultivated by the company themselves would become famous one after another.
But Xia Yan opened her eyes after all.
Four animations, two IP works, one, and a comic, Xia Yan can arrange their creation properly.
"I said."
Xia Yan looked at Tang Yin's fair and delicate face at this time.
In the office, after the silence fell for a moment, the atmosphere changed slightly.
Xia Yan is not a person who can coax people, and likes to say some embarrassing goosebumps love words.
He always wanted to say something to Tang Yin, but every time he was a little nervous and didn't say it.
"Tang Yin."
"Huh?"
"Next year. Let's get married. ”
"Poof" Tang Yin squirted out a mouthful of hot tea in his mouth.
She looked at Xia Yan with a blank gaze.
I couldn't imagine Xia Yan's mind jumping out of his mind at all.
Just now, I was talking about the development of the company and the relationship with Song Lingyun.
The next sentence will turn to that.
Of course, Xia Yan also said to Tang Yin about similar topics before, but after that, the two of them were busy with work and didn't discuss this matter in depth.
"Why, so suddenly." Tang Yin's voice trembled slightly.
"Suddenly?" Xia Yan said with a smile.
"Suddenly, it was right. I didn't ask it clearly last time, but it's still that question, would you like to? ”
It stands to reason that Tang Yin should have mocked Xia Yan at this time and didn't give a ring for his proposal.
But Tang Yin also understood Xia Yan, he might just suddenly think of this, and then as soon as the courage surged, he suddenly spoke like this.
If Xia Yan had prepared to propose in advance, he would definitely not have such a relaxed attitude and such a smooth tone.
"Next year?"
"Hmm."
"Are you serious? After thinking clearly, it's me. ”
"Think clearly, it's you."
When Tang Yin heard this, the breath she was holding in her heart finally relaxed, and she took two steps forward to Xia Yan's office desk, and then opened her arms.
Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, immediately realized something, his face showed joy, and he stood up and hugged Tang Yin's waist directly.
The arm protected Tang Yin's slender and soft waist, Tang Yin stood on tiptoe slightly and kissed Xia Yan on the lips.
"I don't like wearing rings, but engagement rings, remember to make them up, I don't want to be ridiculed by my friends."
"Understood." Xia Yan is happy.
"And. You have to go to my house to explain this matter to my dad, well, there is a high probability that you will have to face the examination and assessment of dozens of relatives in my family. ”
"What if the assessment is unsuccessful?" Xia Yan asked.
"Then I'll cut ties with them." Tang Yin glanced at Xia Yan.
"Take a formality, they embarrass you and don't give me face, and I won't give them face."
Saying this, Tang Yin's chin rested on Xia Yan's shoulder, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Seven years ago, you were still a student, I just regarded you as a junior... Unexpected. I will be your wife one day. When I think about this development now, I think it's incredible! ”
"Thank you for being single for more than twenty years before you met me!" Xia Yan also chuckled softly.
When Tang Yin heard this, her expression darkened.
After all, during his single life, he was urged to marry by his family, and if he really said it, it was tantamount to suffering for Xia Yan.
Xia Yan is a somewhat casual person, after his parents are gone, he acts even more freely, he doesn't need to discuss things like marriage, he can make a decision on the spot.
After Tang Yin agreed to the marriage proposal, Xia Yan's mind also shifted part of his mind from work to this.
Again, the level of intervention in the creation of each work in the company has decreased.
And Slam Dunk in the next few weeks, as Xia Yan expected, the ratings rose steadily again, similar to the development of Slam Dunk in the parallel world. The addition of Mitsui Shou to the team was an important turning point.
As for works such as hunters and swords, their popularity is growing at a steady pace.
The sales volume of the single book sword has basically risen and stopped, but the hunter has begun to go straight to the average sales of 28 million volumes.
Soon, the time came to mid-September.
Song Lingyun's new work ushered in the end of the chapter this month.
This one is not long, but it is obvious that it can be written long, but it is a work that absolutely cannot compete with Xia Yan, and after she determines this, she will not think about writing it long.
She is still as obsessed with Xia Yan as ever.
Of course, her this one has also been confirmed to be animated and will be broadcast in April next year, and fans are overjoyed.
When the time came to the end of September, the two-dimensional industry of Longguo had a small shock again.
Not only did the broadcast of Xia Yan's new animated story in October make these people excited, but at the same time, the animated broadcast of the hunter was also on the agenda
Just next January.
It can be said that this year is nothing, and in January of next year, when Hunter, Slam Dunk, Sword Season 2, Initial D Season 2, Monogatari series and other animations appear on the market at the same time.
There is a kind of grandeur of the two-dimensional industry in the golden age of the island country in the parallel world, and it is like being reproduced by Xia Yan to the Dragon Kingdom.
In the entire animation market, there is a situation in which Xia Yan's works fight against themselves.
(End of chapter)
