A perfect life starting from a light novel writer

The third episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker is a transitional episode. The real episode mainly tells how the protagonist David transformed from a student of Mingpai Academy to a member of a street gang.

The Cyanwestan implanted in him is indeed a relic of his mother, but this item was sold to Mann before his mother died.

That is, the muscular man who found David at the end of the second episode.

David implanted someone else's things. In order not to be killed by Mann to take the prosthesis, he could only help Mann work to pay off his debts.

And it happened that he was better than others in using the prosthesis. He could even use Cyanwestan up to ten times a day without immunosuppressants. He was also successfully noticed by Mann, the boss of the underground gang organization, and became a new member of his team.

A top student became a bloody Night City Cyberpunk. This plot development really made everyone talk about it.

In Mann's team, these vulgar, dirty-mouthed, and obscene people from the lower classes of Night City have purer feelings for each other.

Everyone fights side by side to complete the client's mission, whether it is assassination, theft, or acting as a thug for money, any dangerous things can be accepted.

Various gang companions met in this process

Technician Pira, with huge mechanical prosthetic arms implanted in both hands, is a funny member of the team with vulgar words. .

Pira's sister Rebecca, a gunner loli, a cute girl.

Mann's girlfriend, a terrifying woman with a body size of Mann and eight abdominal muscles.

Qiwei, the hacker in the team.

Falka, a mustache driver.

And Lucy, the substitute hacker in the team.

The entire third episode is about the interaction between the protagonist and these people in the team, doing tasks with them, then integrating into them, imitating them, and finally becoming them.

If for the audience of Dragon Country, what is the feeling of watching Cyberpunk Edgewalker to the third episode?

Most viewers' first reaction is freshness.

You may not say that Cyberpunk is great only in the first few episodes, but the characters, choices, and story development of the entire work are very different from the previous animations of Longguo.

There has not been a good person in the entire work so far, so is the protagonist a good person?

Of course not, a teenager who dropped out of school and joined a gang can be considered a good person, but this protagonist has an indescribable charm conveyed from the animation.

Although he longs to be strong, he does not bully the weak. Although he is still afraid of killing for the first time, he can adapt to it the second time.

And Mann, the boss of the team, although he is rude when he appears and beats up the protagonist right away, you will find how reassuring it is to have such a boss after accepting the protagonist.

He is strong and fair. As long as you complete the tasks he assigns, he will never deduct a dollar from your remuneration. The protagonist David only helped him do one or two things and earned more money than her mother, who worked in the police logistics department, earned in a year.

After the third episode was aired, it can be said that the reputation of Cyberpunk Edgewalker has been completely established.

Although the first two episodes seemed interesting, everyone still couldn't understand the main plot of the work, but the third episode was very clear.

The whole work depicts the story of the protagonist David becoming a cyberpunk and rising from the bottom of the gang.

"What a pity, why doesn't this animation have magical girls, cyberpunk, etc.? It's true that there are no magical girls to look forward to."

"Are you perverted? Do you want the protagonist to become a magical girl?"

"Why not?"

"Don't be ridiculous. But after watching these three episodes, I can only say that the plot of the first three episodes is much better than that of Madoka Magica. At least the sense of anticipation and the world view are all built up."

"That's right. The rhythm of the first three episodes is indeed better than that of Madoka Magica, but Madoka Magica's third episode has the big explosion of Mami Tomoe's death! But the first three episodes of Cyberpunk Edgewalker feel a bit too average. Of course, it's good to watch."

"Well, that's right. After the third episode of Madoka Magica, the plot is better than the last episode. The first episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker is still good, but until now, I haven't seen this animation have such potential."

"I say, don't always compare Teacher Xia Yan's new work with Madoka Magica. There are a few works that can compete with Madoka Magica."

"I just think Cyberpunk Edgewalker is a bit too good to watch. The opening data of Edgewalker is so good, and I hope that Mr. Xia Yan's work can surpass the original work! I don't want Magical Girl Madoka to be his peak! "

"Yes, as a creator, the proudest thing in life is to create an animation like Magical Girl Madoka at the age of nineteen, but as a creator, the most tragic thing in life is to find that the nineteen-year-old self is a mountain that cannot be crossed in this life in the long life of a creator. "

"Your words made me tear up a little. When I was in high school, I was at the peak of my intelligence. I knew astronomy and geography. Now... My son asked me to tutor his elementary school questions, and I, a graduate student, can't do it! It's uncomfortable. "

"Hehe, me too. When I was in high school, I felt that the world belonged to me, but now I find that I am nothing. But this is too far-fetched. Anyway, I still hope that Mr. Xia Yan will work hard on this work and strive to make an animation that is not inferior to Magical Girl Madoka. "

The next day, the ratings of the third episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker animation were released.

4.35%, the same as last week, ranked second in the ratings.

However, among all the animations in Dragon Country this week, the work with the highest ratings was replaced by the original sports animation Crash Landing.

After all, its third episode happened to enter a small climax of the animation plot, and the scenes of the fee fighters in this episode made its ratings rise slightly to 4.39%.

So far, in the Dragon Country autumn animation market, the four works that everyone was optimistic about before the broadcast were indeed as expected. Compared with other works of the same period, the ratings after the broadcast were far ahead.

Although the four works and two novels and comics adapted works have the huge popularity of the original fans, in the third week of broadcast, the ratings were only the third and fourth of the week.

It’s not that the quality of these two adapted animations is not good, but the early plots of the two original animations Cyberpunk Edgewalker and Crash Landing are indeed excellent.

Without the original fans to pick on, the two works scored 9.1 and 9.0 points on the Jiuxiao Forum respectively.

On the contrary, the scores of Red Dragon and Revolutionary of the Other World are only 8.7 and 8.8 points respectively.

The original fans of popular works are a double-edged sword. They have a fan filter for the original works. Your 90-point adapted animation work may only be 85 points in their eyes, but if your adapted animation is only 80 points in quality, under the blessing of their fan psychological filter, it will instantly drop to 70 points or even 60 points.

Regarding this situation, a group of people in the animation industry have discussed it.

"Red Dragon and Revolutionary of the Other World have three tricks. The first and second episodes are all amazing, and the investment is not saved at all, but from the third episode, you can feel that the picture effect is not as good, and even some scenes have supporting characters with broken faces and insufficient animation frame rate."

"Both animations have invested more than 70 million yuan. I don’t know why the third episode is like this."

"The movie "Dragon Road" that claimed to have invested 200 million last year, the actors’ pay is 140 million yuan. What’s the use of investing a lot in such works?"

"You can’t say that. Although the third episodes of these two works are a bit economical, the overall quality is still online, but fans don’t care about these, even if your animation quality is The volume has dropped from 95 to 90 points, but as long as it drops, they will give bad reviews, regardless of the fact that there are a lot of garbage animations with a quality of 20 or 30 points out there. "

"But the animation Cyberpunk Edgewalker is really interesting. Although it has been ranked second in the ratings for two consecutive weeks, I think it is the best in terms of plot. However, it suffers from the company's weak strength and poor publicity channels. The popularity of the work depends entirely on the screenwriter Xia Yan."

This autumn season can be regarded as the strongest single-quarter animation market in Longguo in recent years. Four animations with a rating of over 4% competed together, and none of the four works were bad, only the difference between good and very good quality.

This also made the media scramble to report. The producers, screenwriters, and voice actors of the four works also frequently appeared in the media and on TV at this moment, attacking each other. Everyone is determined to win the title of the animation ratings champion this quarter.

After all, to evaluate the best TV animation of the year, a large part of the reference factor is to look at this thing.

Ratings are the embodiment of the influence of works. From January to July this year, no other works have an influence greater than these four works in the animation market. There is a high probability that no works will be able to make a comeback in the winter market.

So.

Whoever can stand out in the competitiveness of animation in this autumn season will most likely be the winner of the gold award for this year's annual TV animation.

And most importantly, the winning work of last year's annual TV animation was Xia Yan's Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

If Xia Yan wins this award again this year, Xia Yan will have created an unprecedented record.

As a screenwriter, he successfully defended the annual TV animation gold award.

If Xia Yan could do this, the three major animation companies would probably have a greatly reduced influence in the industry. Xia Yan's Xia Tang Animation Company has money, and has a reputation and status in the industry. With a hard-working creator like Xia Yan, it will probably grow into another giant animation production company in the Dragon Country animation industry in a few years.

This is something that the three major animation production companies cannot tolerate.

After a few days, another Friday is coming.

The fourth episodes of Red Dragon, Crash Landing, and Revolutionary of Another World were broadcasted one after another.

But unlike last week, the ratings of the three works have hardly changed this week.

The ratings of 4.38%, 4.25%, and 4.27% of the three works are basically the same as last week.

This also shows that the quality of the three animation works is at this level. As long as the subsequent plots of the three works are not bad, the ratings of the three works will also fluctuate to a certain extent on this baseline as the degree of excitement of the works fluctuates.

It won't be too high, and it won't be too low.

The practitioners and fans of Dragon Country's animation industry probably understand this point.

And at this time, everyone can deeply appreciate the value of the 6% ratings of Magical Girl Madoka Magica in the later period.

The popular novel adapted animation Revolutionary of Another World, which has an investment of nearly 100 million yuan, has a ratings level of 4% to 5%. The 6% of Magical Girl Madoka Magica is indeed exaggerated to the point of abnormality.

At this moment, everyone turned their attention to Cyberpunk Edgewalker.

Everyone wants to know how the fourth episode of this work performs?

Magic Circle brought the three-episode rule to the industry, letting everyone know that if you want to evaluate whether a work has potential, you have to look at the performance of the series after the third episode?

Will Xia Yan's new work, episode 4, perform better?

Or will it be just like these three works, with a similar level, and compete "fiercely" with Red Dragon, Revolutionary of Another World and Crash Landing on You at the 4% ratings level for the throne of the most popular animation of the quarter.

There is no way to reproduce the feat of Magic Circle last year, which started to rise in the third episode, exploded in the sixth episode, and became a god in the ninth episode, and then crushed the top in one fell swoop.

Xia Yan's animation fans have great expectations for Xia Yan's new work at this moment, and the black fans are also ready to start spraying when the quality of Edge Walker is slightly reduced. As for his peers in the animation industry, except for the three major animation companies, people in other small and medium-sized companies still support Xia Yan in their hearts. After all, Xia Yan's Xia Tang Animation can be said to be a card of Longguo's non-three major animation production companies.

Everyone really hopes to see Xia Yan continue to rub the three major animation companies in the animation industry this year.

I have something to do tonight, so this is the end of this chapter.
