My Animation Era

  Chapter 121 Simultaneous broadcasting (for subscription)

  Wanbao Video is developing very well.

  Although from the current situation, whether it is the user base or the amount of copyrighted content, there is still a long way to go from other websites.

   But the development potential is great!

  As the saying goes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor.

  As long as Wanbao Animation can continue to produce excellent works, sooner or later it will catch up with its competitors in the area of ​​animation video content, and becoming the next "Mango TV" is not a problem.

  Gu Miao is very confident about this.

  In order to add momentum to Wanbao Video and add more new users, he decided to let the animation "Dragon Fighter" be broadcast simultaneously on "TV + Internet".

  What is simulcast?

   Simply put, when the TV station broadcasts animations, the website will also update the episodes.

  In this way, viewers can choose freely. If they want to watch TV, they can watch TV. If they don’t want to watch TV, they can use their mobile phones or computers to watch animations.

   It’s fine to watch it ahead of schedule!

   Although this thing makes money, it is too bad and it is not fair to the audience. Even if you open VIP, you will be discriminated against, which will definitely attract scolding.

  As for the simultaneous broadcast of "Dragon Fighter", whether the TV station is willing or not...

"I do not want to!"

  Director Wang was the first to protest: "There are too many TV stations for the first broadcast, and the audience has been diverted. If you do this again, how much ratings will be left?"

  He was upset.

  Assuming that the first-round broadcast rights of "Dragon Fighter" are sold twice, it means that the two TV stations AB and AB are competing for viewers, and the competition is already very fierce.

   As a result, Gu Miao launched another network simulcast, and website C joined the competition.

  The cake is only this big, and there are only so many audiences. From the original AB two people, to ABC three people, no one is happy to change it.

not to mention…

  Now is the Internet age, and fewer and fewer people watch TV, and everyone is used to watching dramas and anime through mobile phones or computers.

  Really engage in simulcasting, maybe the two TV stations AB and AB combined may not get as many viewers as the C website.

  The TV station is definitely not happy.

  But this is a normal situation, and the TV station will only object when its own interests are damaged. If it is an abnormal situation, such as a price cut...

   "OK! No problem!"

  Director Wang changed his face dramatically and said, "Simultaneous broadcasting is pretty good. I agree with both hands and feet."

  Gu Miao: "..."

  Facing such a shameless old thing, what else can he say?

  If the price is reduced, the price will be reduced.

   Properly reduce the price of the first round of broadcasting rights, so that the TV station agrees to its "simultaneous broadcasting" plan. This was originally the plan prepared by Gu Miao.

   It's just that he didn't expect that Director Wang's face would change so quickly.

   You still had a straight face a second ago, saying that it is impossible to accept such terms, if I agree, I will be your grandson. The next second he learned of the price cut, he immediately changed his mind to support the "Simultaneous Broadcasting" plan.

   Really amazing!

   Rubbing the center of her eyebrows, Gu Miao said again: "Don't rush to agree, I haven't finished talking yet."

  This simulcast.

  The network platform is naturally the exclusive broadcast of Wanbao Video. But on the TV platform side, it's not just domestic TV stations.

  Foreign TV stations will also join in.

"real or fake?"

  Director Wang questioned: "You are not kidding me, are you? "Dragon Fighter" has not been officially broadcast yet, and there are TV stations abroad who want to introduce it?"

"of course it's true."

  “Although the animation has not been aired, the manga has been translated into more than a dozen languages ​​and published in many countries.”

  Gu Miao explained: "I didn't expect that comics are still quite popular abroad, attracting many fans."

   This was indeed beyond his expectations.

   Initially, after the Wanbao Neon branch translated and bound the serial comics of "Dragon Fighter", it released the first volume of the comic book translated as "Mashen Heroes".

   It turned out to be a hit!

  The comic has received wide acclaim among the neon youth group. The first manga booklet sold a total of more than 100,000 copies.

   Then Nantong Sensei had a whim, thinking that so many people like the Japanese version, what about the English version?

  So he found another North American publisher to cooperate and released the English version of the "Dragon Warrior" comic book.

  The response is also very enthusiastic!

  Because the comic has a certain reputation in Neon and North America, and Wanbao has a cooperative relationship with TBS and FOX TV stations, they will naturally be interested in the animated version of "Dragon Fighter".

   And then joined in.

  After explaining the cause and effect, Gu Miao spread her hands and said, "So this time the simultaneous broadcast of "Dragon Fighter" is actually the simultaneous broadcast of the Chinese version, the Japanese version and the English version."

   "Are you playing so big?"

  Director Wang said dumbfounded: "Aren't you afraid of **** up after landing in three countries for the premiere?"

   "Then they sent me the money, what can I do?" Gu Miao said helplessly.

  He didn't want to release other language versions in such a hurry, but TBS and FOX came to him, so he couldn't drive them away, could he?

  That's too rude.

   What's more, even if TBS and FOX don't come to the door, he will release the Japanese version and the English version of "Dragon Fighter".

   It's nothing more than the time sooner or later.

   "The animation has been basically completed, and it is undergoing post-production sound synthesis processing."

  Gu Miao counted with her fingers: "It is estimated that in about a week, when TBS and FOX complete the preliminary dubbing work, "Dragon Fighter" will be broadcast."

   So it's the beginning of June?

  Director Wang frowned and said, "The schedule is not easy to arrange! It's just the summer vacation, and I still have several animations on my side."

  Summer vacation is animation carnival season!

  Every year when this time comes, the TV station will receive a lot of animation works, filling up the schedule, and this year is especially exaggerated.

   According to Director Wang.

  Originally there were many new animations aired during the summer vacation, and during the winter vacation last year, many animations chose to postpone the broadcast in order to avoid "Sheep and Sheep Games" and "Sent by Haibao".

  Then, it's all crowded into the summer vacation.

   "There is a schedule, you should be very interested. Because of this schedule, there is your old acquaintance, Director Wang..."

  Director Wang? !

  Hearing this, Gu Miao immediately became interested and said, "Director Haiwa, the director Wang who ran away from Feiyang Animation?"

   "That's right, it's him."

  Director Wang nodded and said: "Zhonghai Children's Channel has just bought the rights to broadcast the first round of his new work. If there is no accident, it will premiere in early June..."

   There are still new works?

   Gu Miao, who thought that this guy had lost his reputation and disappeared completely after "Haiwa", never expected that there is still a company willing to hire him.

interesting!

   A year ago, Gu Miao was still helping him, but a year later, the two of them collided in a car during the summer vacation. What kind of fate is this?

   "Zhonghai Children's Channel, right?"

  Gu Miao laughed and said, "Arrange the same time slot for "Dragon Fighter", and I will give him a big surprise!"

   Sure enough.

   Director Wang, who had already guessed that Gu Miao would say this, nodded with a smile and said, "No problem, then the premiere will be on June 6th at 6 pm!"

   Special period, pay attention to protection!
