From White Box To Supervision

Chapter 44: Sales Problem

“EXODUS” successfully updated the third episode, because this episode is one of the small climaxes, and the popularity of the late-night TV station has also increased a lot than before.

In District 11, most of the new animations are broadcast late at night.

Fortunately, there are still relatively few original works this October. Except for Musashino’s “EXODUS”, there are almost none. Most of them are adaptations of popular manga and light novels. This also makes “EXODUS” a dark horse that is not easy. .

Time passed quickly, at this time, the time had reached the end of the seventh episode.

Although “EXODUS” is popular, whether it can really make money depends on the subsequent BD (Blu-ray Disc) sales.

Today, Mr. Honda Feng is sitting in front of the computer browsing the sales rankings.

Supervisor Kinoshita Seiichi doesn’t care much about this issue. Although he doesn’t know how much money he makes, it should be no problem to keep the capital.

However, Mr. Honda Feng was very concerned about this matter. He started to inquire early in the morning, not early in the morning, but almost every day.

Zhang Beichuan also checked out curiously.

No. 22: Would you like some turtles? (Prototype: Would you like some rabbits?)

Rank 23: Become a Buddha at the site of a temple. (Magic forbidden book catalogue, it seems!!)

…

25th place: Tiancheng Theme Park. (Gan Cheng Glorious Paradise)

27th place: Biao speed macho. (Prototype: Speeding Otaku)

28th: Wangyuan Mobile Team. (Ghost in the Shell)

No. 29: “EXODUS”.

“No. 29, this ranking is not bad.” Ko Li Taro said.

“But it’s only the animation category ranking, except for the top 100 overall.” Mr. Honda Feng sighed.

Previously, the main way of making money for animation was the sales of BDs and the insignificant broadcast fees of TV stations.

But after so many years of development and the birth of online media, the optical disc market has shrunk a lot compared to before.

Before, there were animation industry bigwigs who could not say a few years, animation pills, but he did not take into account the role of the network platform.

The horse of Sai Weng, how can I know it is not a blessing, CD-ROM is not the main way to make money, video playback rights, high popularity around, create realistic scenes of animation, adapt animation to live-action dramas, live-action movies, the way to make money is from a single more.

It’s just that some sales chefs still use sales to measure the success of a work. Honda also cares about sales results.

The progress of the new era has brought great development to the animation in District 11, but there are still big flaws, that is, it is still obtained by squeezing the bottom-level personnel. The above-mentioned money-making works are all successful and have a large number of die-hard fans. It can only be implemented. It is impossible for an animation to be very popular, and there will always be failures.

There is also the fact that the production company can’t share much profit at all. Most of it is the committee that invested at the beginning, or the company that has the original work to extract and distribute. The production company is a higher-level worker. Very little, how can this be done?

You can’t go bankrupt. This can only squeeze the bottom-level painters, producers and other personnel. This method has caused a large number of personnel to flow away. It can be said that the scarcity of bottom-level talents in the animation industry in District 11 has reached a serious level.

Now most of them are supported by ideals.

It’s not like the company makes a lot of money, come on, let Jing Ani!

Kyoto is a special company. Most of the animations produced are selected and animated from its own library, and it has a complete industrial chain. It is the company with the most complete production of animation, production, and promotion of works selected from its own library. , there is absolutely no need to outsource other studios, and most of the money earned is owned by myself.

It’s just that there is only one company in Kyoto. It would be difficult for other companies to learn. Anyway, Zhang Beichuan has never seen the second Jingani.

“Okay, let’s have a morning meeting.” Honda Feng said.

“The eighth chapter completed the submission of the finished product last Saturday, and now we are waiting for the broadcast on Thursday. The ninth chapter will be synthesized on Wednesday the day after tomorrow. The original painting of the tenth chapter has been completed, and the middle part has begun. The eleventh chapter will be completed. The words have been outsourced to the studio as a whole, and the seiyuu recording work will be carried out the day after tomorrow for the twelfth episode.” Honda introduced the progress as a whole.

“Everything seems to be going well so far, but the director of the final episode of Episode 13 still hasn’t finished the storyboard of Bpart.” Speaking of which, Honda Feng gritted his teeth.

(Author’s words: I don’t know what Bpart means, probably because Apart is the front part of the storyboard, and Bpart is the back part.)

“However, even if the mirroring is completed tomorrow, there will be less than a month until the finished product.” Miyamori Aoi worried.

In a month’s time, it is impossible to do it all at once, and there will definitely be revisions, rework and the like.

I don’t know what happened to the company, but the production of the final story was suddenly handed over to Aoi Miyamori. The final story originally belonged to Taro Koli~www.readwn.com~ But Zhang Beichuan guessed that he didn’t trust Taro Taro, after all. The third chapter he was in charge of last time is still vivid in my mind, and the final words are very important words.

“Alright, I have plenty of time for Chapter 10. I’ll help you out then.” Zhang Beichuan smiled.

“Excuse me.” Miyamori Aoi still has some thoughts.

However, Zhang Beichuan still understands her very well. If it was himself, the time itself was not enough, and the storyboards were not finished yet. What a shit!

“Do you want to buy donuts after get off work?” Zhang Beichuan suggested.

Gong Senkui’s eyes lit up, but then she said helplessly: “There’s no way, it’s almost midnight every day when we get off work, and it’s already closed by then.”

“Hehe.” Zhang Beichuan smiled and took out a box from the drawer next to him and handed it to Miyamori Aoi.

“This is… a doughnut, or a Peka doughnut from Kichijoji!” Aoi Miyamori said in surprise when she saw the name on it.

“But… when did you buy it?” Miyamori Aoi was puzzled. She worked overtime until midnight every day this week, so there was basically no time to buy this!

“This!” Zhang Beichuan smiled and said, “A friend of mine lives nearby, and he wanted to buy it yesterday, so I just asked him to buy two more copies. My family has one more, and this one is for You brought it.”

When Zhang Beichuan thinks of Kinoshita’s worry about the bitter melon face who made a special trip to run errands for him, it makes him a little funny. Brothers can be assistants if they are not wingmen!

“Thank you, I’ll give you the money later.” Miyamori Aoi smiled.

“No, it’s just a donut.”

“That’s not good, I can’t eat your food for nothing.”

“It’s really not necessary.”
