My Animation Era

To be honest, Seto was quite unjust.

If he really did something bad and stupid that would make people angry, it would be fine if he was pointed in the nose and scolded. After all, if a man dares to do what he does, there is no reason to leave after he has done something wrong and patted his butt.

But he really didn’t make a mistake!

If he had to be held accountable, the most likely explanation would be that he was incompetent, found an unreliable producer for the animation "Date Live 2", and failed to do a good job in risk control.

Even so, it's not anyone else's turn to hold the person responsible. Mr. Gu from the head office can just scold him. Who are you? What is your identity? Where do you have the qualifications to point fingers at him?

"He was quite unjust, but there was nothing he could do."

Lao Zhang laughed and said: "The greater his ability, the more fans scold him. Who made him hit the gun?"

"So what's going on in Date 2 now?" Gu Miao asked.

Although the other party promised to complete the second season of "The Fight", with such a big change happening at this time, Gu Miao no longer believed in that company.

Although the animated "Date Live" is just a small and inconspicuous IP in Wanbao's business landscape, Gu Miao does not want the second season to leave fans with too many regrets.

It would be best if nothing happens.

But everything has to be prepared for the worst. The production company has undergone major changes. Now he just wants to know whether he can continue to do it in the future?

If you can do it, then OK!

If it can't continue, Wanbao will activate an emergency plan and temporarily take back the production rights to ensure that the second season of the animation will not be suddenly discontinued or unfinished.

"The situation is a little more complicated."

"Seto told me that the other party's financial situation is very bad, and it is also facing the risk of multiple loan maturities."

Lao Zhang looked solemn and said: "Four episodes of Date 2 have been aired now, and episodes 5 and 6 are in production..."

Already halfway through the episode?

When Gu Miao heard this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and her face was not as ugly as it was at first.

Even if the company can't finish the second season, at least half of the episodes have been completed, and the mess left for Wanbao is not as difficult to clean up as imagined.

And to be honest.

The production company of Battle 2 is, after all, a time-honored name that has been in the neon animation industry for ten years. Even if there is a problem now, it will not fall so quickly.

"Hold on for two more months!"

Gu Miao said in a deep voice: "We must let them survive two months, at least before the end of Date 2."

"I'll tell Seto."

"Within two months, the other party will definitely not be defeated. You can rest assured on this. We can definitely guarantee the smooth conclusion of Date 2."

Just two months.

In Lao Zhang's view, the difficulties faced by the other party are, to put it bluntly, caused by "lack of money." With Wanbao's full help, it will not be a big problem to survive these difficult two months.

As for two months later?

Please! At that time, "Date Live 2" was already finished, who cared if they went out of business? Wanbao can only help them solve their temporary worries. You don't expect Wanbao to send Buddha to the West, right?

"anyway……"

Gu Miao rubbed her brows and said, "If this production company also fails, will we have to find another team for Date 3?"

"yes!"

Hearing this, Lao Zhang suddenly realized.

Good guy!

Mr. Gu had forgotten that the production team of Date 1 seemed to have disbanded not long after completion.

If the production team of Date Live 2 also closes down and disbands after its completion, will anyone really dare to take on the sequel to the IP "Date Live"?

The ultimate broom star, right?

All the teams that produced "Date A Live" were disbanded and closed down.

horrible!

Put yourself in his shoes, if Lao Zhang is the boss of an animation company, and suddenly receives a call from Seto asking him: Brother! Are you interested in taking over the production of Season 3 of "Date Live"?

Who wouldn’t be frightened by this?

"It's broken! In the end, no one will dare to take over the Battle 3 project. We can only make it ourselves, right?"

Gu Miao was already scared.

Based on the brilliant results achieved in the first two seasons of the battle, he didn’t want Wanbao to produce it himself in the third season. What if even Wanbao couldn’t withstand the backlash and was beaten to death by the battle?

For this kind of weapon cursed by the law of cause and effect, let’s release it to cause harm to our colleagues!

Putting aside everything else, Gu Miao wouldn't dare to let Wanbao Animation do it himself because of this unique trait. He would rather spend more money to hire an outsourcing team to produce it.

When it comes to metaphysics, sometimes you should just trust someone.

"In that case... I'll call Seto and tell him that "Date A Live" will be listed as a taboo project from now on. The sequel will be outsourced and not produced by himself."

"Okay, okay, let's do it!"

Gu Miao said with lingering fear: "Tell him that it doesn't matter if he spends more money. The important thing is not to get bad luck."

As long as the IP copyright is still in Wanbao's hands, the animation production rights can be given to anyone. Anyway, it cannot be produced by Wanbao himself.

This thing is outrageous.

Gu Miao originally thought that the original version of the battle was already very abstract, but she did not expect that the Wanbao version was even more abstract, comparable to the two-dimensional Lu Bu.

If this IP didn't still have some value, the development of derivative games and derivatives would be promising. To be honest, Gu Miao wanted to sell the IP of Yue Zhan as soon as possible.

Of course, this is a joke.

Although the IP of "Yue Zhan" is indeed toxic, the sales of derivatives are not bad, especially the figures, pillows and peripherals of the main female characters, which are really popular.

At every major comic exhibition event, you can always see cosplayers of characters such as Kurumi, Tohka, Kotori, and Origami Daishi on site.

Based on this premise, Gu Miao would not give up the fight easily unless absolutely necessary.

not to mention.

Wanbao Games’ two-dimensional mobile game of the same name, adapted from the “Date A Live” animation, has been confirmed to be launched into public beta in the second half of this year.

If this two-dimensional otaku harem animation is made into a game, especially a card-drawing type development mobile game, the future will definitely be bright.

pity……

Speaking of the mobile game adapted from the two-dimensional otaku animation, Gu Miao immediately thought of Galgame with the same name as "How to Raise a Passerby Heroine".

This game is also adapted from Wanbao Games, and is ready to take advantage of the popularity of animation to attract a lot of money from die-hard otakus.

But the results were shocking.

The game has been online for more than a month, and there are many players interested in it, but not many people have actually purchased the game.

Games like Galgame are indeed more suitable for Neon's market environment. Domestic players don't like this type of gameplay very much.

It can only be remade.

According to President Kobayashi, they have learned lessons this time and plan to transform multiple Galgames into an open world adventure game with krypton gold card drawing and character development types.

have a thought!

Gu Miao greatly appreciated this idea, especially the words "open world adventure", which immediately made him think about it.

It’s not easy to make money in the second dimension either!

In the past, you only needed to put a few beautiful and explicit original paintings and hire a few professional voice actors to dub them to make players want to buy them. But now it doesn’t work anymore, you have to add something else...
