My Animation Era

  Chapter 802 Thank you letter (for subscription)

   It's Mid-Autumn Festival again.

  Wanbao followed last year's arrangement and also customized a batch of "exclusive IP" mooncakes, which were mainly given to company employees and sold to fans in small quantities.

  The difference is that the theme of this year's custom mooncakes has been changed to the Q version of the protagonists of "Pretty Cure", which are popular in neon, Nagisa Mimo and Honoka Syracuse.

   Staff rave reviews!

   This batch of Guangmei customized mooncakes not only surprised the employees when they received them, but even the 10,000 gift boxes sold on the official website were sold out in just two hours.

   Especially the gift box of Xuecheng Honoka, even on a certain fish, it was fired up to an astonishing price of 2999.

   Outrageous!

  In the gift box, there are a total of five mooncakes. Based on this price, one mooncake costs an average of 600 yuan? What kind of family is this?

  Anyway, Gu Miao didn't dare to think, how much she had to love Xuecheng Honoka to spend 600 yuan on a mooncake with her Q version image printed on it...

  Maybe this is fanatical fans!

   Speaking of "Pretty Cure", Gu Miao suddenly thought of the elf companions who grew up with the two beautiful girls in the animation.

  Mepulu and Mipuru.

  Speaking of which, animation is so popular, and the popularity of the two protagonists is so high. How come no one cares about these two elves?

   It's unbelievable!

  As the standard equipment of magical girls, the three major items of elf companion + transformation props + battle suit, it stands to reason that with the popularity of animation, it will be sought after by thousands of girls.

   But in the animation "Pretty Girl of Light", the situation seems to have changed.

  Mitsumi is a magical girl animation that "does not take the usual path". Although it also has the three major parts that are standard in traditional magical girl animations, it is obvious that the attention of the three major parts is far less than that of the two protagonists.

  The eyes of the audience were all focused on the two protagonists.

  While watching the animation, I can at most boast, this elf partner is so cute, and this battle suit is so beautiful, but after the boast is over, no one cares about these things anymore.

"This shows what?"

   "Illustrate that the theme of magical girls does not necessarily have to rely on gorgeous costumes, gorgeous transformation animations, and cute elf companions to attract the audience."

  Gu Miao raised her eyebrows and said, "Maybe there will be animations of magical girls in the future that don't rely on what's there or what's not, but only rely on the plot to attract the audience."

   "Really? I don't believe it!"

"believe it or not…"

  Gu Miao didn't argue. After all, the current mainstream magical girl animations haven't taken a new route, so it's useless to say more.

  If a work like "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" really comes out at this time, it will prove what he said is true.

  No similar work has been born. No matter how much he says, Hou Bin will probably take it as a joke. After all, in his eyes, how deep can the theme of magical girls have to dig out?

   Isn't it enough to change your body and act cute?

   "By the way, Mr. Gu!"

  Hou Bin took a sip of water, cleared his throat, and asked, "I heard that we received a thank you letter after the "Prince of Tennis" national competition was broadcast?"

   "Yes, from Jiaxing Martial Arts School."

  Gu Miao smiled and nodded.

   This letter of thanks was written by the principal of Jiaxing Martial Arts School and sent to Wanbao headquarters yesterday afternoon.

  The content of the letter is mainly that the principal expressed his gratitude to Wanbao Animation and the animation production team of "The Prince of Tennis".

   Jiaxing Martial Arts School is quite famous.

  But as a private private middle school, they are actually doing very poorly, and it is very difficult to recruit students every year, so they can only recruit those students who are screened out by public middle schools.

  Don't ask why...

   These days, how many parents are willing to send their children to learn martial arts? What everyone thinks is to train college students, train doctorate masters, rather than train a martial arts practitioner.

  Based on this premise, the Jiaxing Martial Arts School enrolls less and less freshmen every year, and it is about to decline and close down.

   Coincidentally, the national chapter of the animation "The Prince of Tennis" has started!

  Jiaxing Martial Arts School, as the first school to face Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School, is eye-catching in the animation, especially the minister's unique "land shrinking method", which attracts many ignorant children.

  Children are very simple. They don't know that the shrinking method is actually a "stunt" invented by the animation production team.

  They thought that as long as they went to Jiaxing Martial Arts School, they would be able to learn the miraculous method of shrinking the ground, and it would be no problem to fly over the wall from now on!

  Jiaxing Martial Arts School’s reputation has greatly increased, and it has become the middle school that elementary school students most want to enter. Unsurprisingly, next year, it should recruit a large number of new students with longing for it.

  So there is this thank you letter.

  Accompanied by this letter, there is also an invitation letter from the principal, inviting the tennis club of Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School as a delegation to compete with the tennis school team of Jiaxing Martial Arts School.

  However, Gu Miao had handed over the invitation letter to Shen Chao, the current head of the Tennis Department of Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School.

  Student Shen Chao readily agreed.

  Although the real Jiaxing Martial Arts School tennis team is not as strong as in the animation, and they don't master any shrinking techniques, but they are warmly invited, and they have to give face.

  In addition to Jiaxing Martial Arts School, there are many middle schools that have enjoyed the traffic benefits of the "Prince of Tennis" animation.

  Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School is typical!

  As the school where the protagonist Ryoma is, it is also the home team in the animation "The Prince of Tennis". In September this year, it is said that the number of new students enrolled has doubled compared to last year.

   Then there are strong schools such as Wangwangqiu Middle School and Meijiang Middle School, which have played back and forth with Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School in the East China competition. After the animation was broadcast, their reputation has greatly increased and attracted many new students.

   This should be one of the changes brought to several middle schools near Jiangchuan after the broadcast of "The Prince of Tennis" animation!

   Biggest change?

   Speaking of this, I have to mention the data released by the National Tennis Center some time ago.

  After the first season of the animation "The Prince of Tennis" was broadcast, more than 10,000 tennis courts have been built nationwide, and tens of millions of middle school and primary school students have participated in and experienced tennis.

  A mere animation has led to the vigorous development of a sports event in China, and has spawned a large number of young players with potential. The Tennis Center is grateful to Wanbao and the animation of "The Prince of Tennis".

  I heard that it is said...

   I don’t know where the gossip came from. It is said that the National Tennis Center intends to sponsor the third season of "The Prince of Tennis", which is the U17 training camp.

   Of course, the two sides are still talking.

   This matter does exist, and Gu Miao has also received related calls, but he has not yet made up his mind on how to sponsor or cooperate.

   "The Prince of Tennis" has sponsors.

  The racket brands used by Ryoma, Zhong Guoguang, Xing Cun and others in the animation can actually be bought in reality. This racket manufacturer is the biggest sponsor of the animation.

  Although there are one more sponsor and one less, it has no effect on the animation.

   But what Gu Miao thought was, with the fantasy tennis level of the original U17, wouldn't the professionals in the tennis center really get angry after watching it?

   After dripping eye drops for a few days, the left eye is finally much better...
