Anime frenzy

Chapter 55 Wings of Heaven

Well, although the reader group has been on the 'author's's words' for a long time, it seems that everyone doesn't see it because the position is not conspicuous. Therefore, a wizard is very lowly and occupies the title advertisement:

Group: (Anime frenzy); Group number: 25382799; Welcome everyone to come in and talk about the mountain. A wizard often bubbles... Well, it's not right to enter the group to urge manuscripts or something. A wizard also has human rights to say) - the text dividing line - although the curse will come out for you to drink water, eat and sleep. Unexpectedly, Jing Xi, who had a chance to be laughed at by his sister-in-law, was very annoyed, but the next day, Meng Zhe did not hesitate to write a letter to Jing Xi and Ji Youyuan according to the address.

In the letter, Meng Zhe asked them if they had any idea of being professional voice actors. If so, he would be willing to fund them... Then, Meng Zhe will continue to worry about the affairs of Tianjiao Club - according to the serialization progress of the Shuying Club, in late April, "Chesoul of Chess" and "Light Voice Girl" will surpass the number of animation. The serialization speed of the year, so it must be adjusted during this period.

It doesn't matter if the serialization speed of Nihong is slower. The strict copyright protection measures have basically extinct the domestic pirated version of Nihong, but the heavenly dynasty is still in a period of piracy.

If the serialization speed of Nihong's side exceeds that of the heavenly dynasty, Meng Zhe is sure that as soon as the weekly series of Nihong's side comes out, there will be the latest serialization of pirated versions of "Ches Soul of Chess" and "Light Voice Girl" on the heavenly side, and they are definitely Chineseized!

Create a weekly edition of "Anime Boy"?

It's a little unrealistic... The post-80s generation who love to read comics are still half-year-old children. Their monthly pocket money is only so much. The semi-monthly magazine is basically the limit they can bear. The sales volume of weekly magazines can't go up at all.

Moreover, if "Ches Soul" and "Light Voice Girl" are transferred to the weekly magazine, the sales of the monthly magazine will also be reduced, right?

These two serials, especially the teenager's "Ches Soul", have cultivated a large number of hardcore readers. The only purpose of these hardcore readers even buying "Anime Boy" is to watch the serialization of the chess soul. Other serial comics are also related to Go-related chess court awards... Fans of "Light Voice Girl" should Less. After all, it is still the world of hot-blooded youth animation in China these days. For cute animations such as light-tone girls, the feedback message in the reader's letter is 'cute and beautiful'... Then?

Then it's gone.

There are many people who like this painting style, but basically they just look at it. When they vote for their favorite works, they basically don't want to vote for "Ches Soul" or for Meng Zhe's newly serialized "The Guardian of the Three Kingdoms"!

With the launch of "Princess Pearl" co-written by Meng Zhe, Hu Xirong and Free Bird, the original votes of "Light-tone Girl" have been diverted a lot. After all, compared with the four weak and cute girls of light-tone girls, Chinese people seem to prefer this kind of swallow, this kind of... Well, this kind of relatively Chinese surname, A female surname that is not weak in front of a male surname.

This is probably related to all kinds of propaganda since the founding of the People's Republic of China - 'women can stand half of the sky', 'Chinese sons and daughters have many ambitions, don't love red clothes and love armed forces'.

Of course, the martial arts culture that Chinese people like to see also adds a lot of points to "Princess Return of Pearl", coupled with the familiar background of the Ming Dynasty in the strangeness... "Princesss of Pearl" has not fallen out of the top three since its launch!

According to the latest issue of reader survey data feedback, Meng Zhe's newly serialized "Stupid Guardian of the Three Kingdoms" first, just a small ** "Chesss Soul" second, "Princess of Pearl" beat the fourth "Digimon" and the fifth "Little Mountain Story", continue to sit in the top three!

However, the situation in Japan is slightly different, probably because the mud boom economy is far more developed than China at this time, so the otaku culture and otaku people have basically taken shape. "Light Voice Girl" was sought after as soon as it was launched.

Therefore, TV animated "Light Sound Girl" has to produce 24 episodes for two consecutive seasons, while "Ches Soul" only produces the first season of 12 episodes. The follow-up production still depends on the market reaction.

Of course, this situation may also be related to the amount of sponsorship fees collected - the main sponsor of "Light Voice Girl" is Yamaha Organ Company, which is a good thing that can fully fit the advertisement of the main product and embedded in the hot TV animation. It is estimated that if the sponsorship cost is not relatively high, Yamaha I can't wait to learn from China's "Qindao Haier" and make two or three hundred episodes of "Haier Brothers" in one go, right?

Well, it's okay to say that Haier Company learns from Yamaha, because it is only 1994. Although more than 200 episodes of Haier Brothers are already in production, it will not be completed until 1995 and will be officially broadcast until 1996.

Speaking of which, Meng Zhe is still very impressed with the Haier brothers, and he also likes Qindao and Haier brothers, who only wear underwear in both sunny and summer. The cartoon of "Haier Brothers" makes Meng Zhe know a lot of common sense. The main song 'Thunder is going to rain... Tired, rain has to take an umbrella... Tired' The title song is also fresh in Meng Zhe's memory to this day.

Even in Meng Zhe's heart, this Haier Brothers is also a domestic boutique animation.

More importantly, this Haier Brothers is the first attempt by a well-known enterprise in China to use animation to promote the brand! And the long-term effect is not bad. At least Meng Zhe himself has a closeness to the Haier brand because he has read Haier Brothers.

It's a pity that this long "Haier Brothers" has not derived the development of the industrial chain to produce objective economic benefits with the naked eye, so it seems to be a serious behavior in other enterprises, so this kind of combination can no longer be seen in future cartoons... "Haier Brothers" can't develop the industrial chain. It's normal. After all, the two animated images of the Haier brothers... cute, handsome and cool are the elements that people won't forget after watching them. They are not related to any of them. Except for the two little guys who only wear small trousers, what else can you remember?

Without characteristics, it naturally cannot induce the desire to buy peripheral products, and according to the basic principle of market law - only when there is consumer demand can there be production.

If Meng Zhe is allowed to operate, he will definitely make the Haier brothers more stylish or cute, or simply turn off the two brothers. Then, when the animation broadcast was popular, he looked for toy manufacturers to make dolls and other limited edition peripheral items, and then asked Haier to sell electrical products with limited edition peripherals to stimulate sales... Of course, Meng Zhe also knew that his thinking was too divergent-- Now, even if the Haier Group, which is still 'Qindao Haier', criticizes and corrects the problem of the animation of "Haier Brothers", the senior officials of Qindao Haier will definitely bow their heads and beg Meng Zhe to operate and dominate, right?

However, Meng Zhe thinks that this kind of enterprise will come to the door, as long as "Anime Boy" can hold on in the current harsh market environment, it will happen sooner or later!

Well-known domestic enterprises are not only Haier. Yamaha sponsored the production of "Light Voice Girl" and Qindao Haier invested in the production of "Haier Brothers", and then built-in advertisements in the cartoon. After it was broadcast all over the country... Entrepreneurs in this era in China, although the cultural degree may be slightly lower, but this Will they not understand the benefits?

Since the 1990s, those well-known enterprises in China have begun to change their thinking from production to branding. As for those enterprises that can't keep up with this change of thinking, they have not been annexed and eliminated by the market in the following ten years.

... Ah, in a word, according to Meng Zhe's final investigation and research, the conclusion is that the popular in China is "Ches Soul", and the popular "Light Voice Girl" in Japan... Therefore, after discussing with Kong Lan, Meng Zhe finally made a decision: First, stop serializing "Light Voice Less" Female, turned to refer to the serialization speed of Jiyingshe to publish a separate book; secondly, add "Ches Soul" to two serials per issue, so as to ensure that the serialization speed is the same as that of Shuyingshe.

In order to maintain the continuous attention of "Light-tone Girl", Meng Zhe will temporarily stop the increase of the setting of the comprehensive comic city, and draw several short stories of light-tone girls active in the "Comprehensive Comic City" from time to time.

In order to be lazy and maintain attention... Meng Zhe also plans to collect short stories from all over the country on "Anime Boy".

I thought of collecting short story manuscripts with light tones, which seemed to be a little favored, so Meng Zhe finally planned to collect short fan story manuscripts of "Ches Soul", "Digital Baby", "Light Voice Girl" and "Stupid Guardian of the Three Kingdoms" that had moved into the comprehensive comic city at the same time after obtaining the consent of Yao Feila. .

Meng Zhe plans to secretly let him make sure that he will draw some animation characters in the future when drawing the short fan story manuscripts collected, and occasionally secretly appear in the face or something.

In this way, when drawing those animations in the future, let those enthusiastic animation readers who like 'archaeological excavation' send out 'Oh, my God! I SUDDENLY FOUND THAT IN THE XTH PERIOD OF 9X, ON PAGE X OF THE XXX SHORT STORY DRAW BY MR. JINGIJI, OUR FAVORite XXX STAND BY THE ROADSIDE WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT! Ah - Mr. Jiji is really far-sighted, literary martial arts, long live long live...' and so on, isn't it interesting?

Meng Zhe, who decided to do this matter, has two more long serial manuscripts to be reviewed on the desktop. Although Meng Zhe is always thinking of various ways to try to be lazy, the position under his buttocks determines that he can't avoid some things after all, such as reviewing whether the long serials can be serialized.

Among the two long serialized manuscripts, the first one is called "Wings of Heaven", and the author is the 'Guangdong Eleven Tigers'.

This name seems to be very girlish "Wings of Heaven". The protagonist is beyond Meng Zhe's expectation. It is actually Shi Dakai, the wing king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!

Well, the theme is a good theme. The dynasty's surname of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is a just peasant uprising, so it will not be a big problem to serialize with this history as the starting point.

But!

This Guangdong Eleven Tiger, with reference to Hong Kong Comics, was designed as a fierce character that can kill people at any time! And the killing scene is also very, not... realistic to exaggerate!

God - "Anime Boy" is a juvenile comic.

This kind of Hong Kong comic and confused character is not suitable for publishing in juvenile comics at all!

It usually doesn't work, let alone the time period when parents now have a slight bit of "Anime Boy"!

"Uncle Song, this Wings of Heaven cannot be serialized. Tell Guangdong Eleven Tigers that they want a long series, then ask him first what the definition of the editor-in-charged juvenile comics is. Forget it, I'll write another letter to him in person..."

Meng Zhe cut off the Wings of Heaven without hesitation, and then picked up the second long serial manuscript that was used for review.

"Return to Ancestors", the name of the second long serial comic is "Return to Ancestors", and the author's name is not an individual, but Jinhong Comics Studio.
