Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?.

Chapter 317 Do you know the value of educational comics? !
How could we forget about the anti-opera Cartoonists Association?
We keep saying congratulations, anticipation, and waiting for milk tea. Now Mr. Oda’s new work is indeed good, we have to give some feedback!
[The association said it very well. As expected, Mr. Oda successfully published an excellent educational work! @Manga Artist Association.]
[@Cartoonist Association. This wave is really well supported by the Association, positive support, saying it is a masterpiece, without any ambiguity! ]
[Teacher Oda really owes you some milk tea! I will definitely send it to you! @Cartoonists Association.]
Comic fans kept leaving messages and @the Cartoonists Association.

The top executives of the Cartoonists Association are so furious!
The president smashed the flower arrangements in the office and started glaring at several of his subordinates.

"Baka! Is it possible that Oda Shingo can actually draw an excellent educational comic? What's wrong with that guy's head?!"

"Who would have thought that guy could actually draw it! No one has been able to draw educational comics well for decades."

"Fortunately, Oda Shingo didn't say anything now, otherwise I would have been so embarrassed!"

That’s what they thought, but Oda Nobuo didn’t really say anything. He just did it!

Milk tea!

Shingo Oda ordered a cup of milk tea for each of the 136 members of the Cartoonists Association headquarters!
I also shot a special video for ordering milk tea!
He didn't say anything the whole time and the video was silent, but the delivery address was captured very clearly: 160-0001 Tokyo, Shinjuku, Katamachi, 31 YANASE兎ビル2F.

"Teacher Oda, aren't you going to say a few words?" Fujido Kaoru tried to fan the flames, feeling that slapping the Cartoonists Association in the face was not harsh enough.

"I don't need to speak at all, the fans will help me speak." Oda Shingo answered casually, but he was wondering in his heart why the address sounded like the name of an anime.

After filming the video and uploading it, Oda Shingo and a few others just watched the fun.

As expected, comic fans spontaneously began to mock the Cartoonists Association.

"Teacher Oda, they said exactly as you said." Yuko Mikami was a little confused.

However, Namikaze Youhe said: "Because we are all fun-loving people, right?"

She used to not like socializing with people and often quietly observed others at school, so she could see these things very clearly.

"Yes, I understand too." Fujido Kaoru nodded.

Mrs. Yukino suddenly asked, "Oda-kun, have you ever considered turning this manga into an animation?"

“…Yes! I really hope so!” Oda Shingo knew that although the original manga was famous, the real hit was the result of the animation.

"I can arrange it for you." Mrs. Yukino smiled.

Oda Shingo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Uh, how much commission do you want?"

"How about 20%?"

"Hey, hey, it's too dark." Oda Shingo curled his lips, very dissatisfied.

"Then I won't help with the agency. You can ask someone about the risks of animation." Mrs. Yukino smiled and didn't seem to be angry.

Oda Shingo, however, raised his chin and stood his ground: "Do you know the value of educational comics?"

Now it was Mrs. Yukino's turn to be stunned, but she didn't retort for a moment.

Oda Shingo was very confident.

The animation of "Cells at Work!" performed very well, with scores hovering around 9 on Douban, a notoriously demanding Chinese website, and it was a big hit all over the world.

Many countries have purchased the copyright for the animation, and although the sales of Blu-ray discs in the market are only considered excellent, the revenues of major pay TV stations are very good, and the commissions for rebroadcasting have always been very profitable.

Especially many educational institutions, almost all of them purchased one set.

David Production, a subsidiary of Fuji Television, the animation producer, made a fortune from "Cells at Work!"

This is the gold content.

If Oda Shingo had his own funds, he would definitely invest in making this animation alone.

However, launching an animation has always required a lot of fundraising and is very time-consuming.

“If ‘Cells at Work!’ is to be adapted into an animation, it will be at least the year after next, right?” Oda Shingo sighed and muttered to himself helplessly.

The women looked at him.

Namikaze Youhe asked, "Why is it taking so long?"

"Yes. Raising funds from various sources, plus recruiting a team, two years is not enough." Oda Shingo smiled bitterly. "I have some savings." Namikaze Yukaku leaned over and whispered.

In fact, it was the dowry she had been saving, there were still several hundred thousand yen. She would not feel bad if she gave it all for Oda Shingo.

I have a lot of money, but that's not what Zhang Fei is talking about. Oda Shingo didn't even ask her how much she had, he just shook his head and said, "Thank you, this is not something that many people can afford."

The investment in animation is very high, and now the cost is basically 1500 million per episode, and some dramas cost up to 5000 million per episode.

Even if it is to produce a TV series that is ridiculed by fans as a PowerPoint show, it would cost at least 500 million yen, and there are millions more for distribution channels and publicity media.

Now that the golden age of burning money is gone, Japanese companies simply dare not take on the responsibility independently.

For experience in this area, you can ask Urushihara Satoshi about the story of how one episode of animation bankrupted a company...

This great artist has been paying off the huge debt incurred from animation production since 06.

Although the company went bankrupt, there were many loans in his personal name. So there was news that because the loan interest rate was not low, even at his peak, he would need more than 30 years to repay the debt...

Someone did reveal that a senior producer in the industry reminded Urushihara Tomoshi that the women you draw are good in every way except the way they draw them... It's hard to put it into words!

The splayed breasts and deep cherry breasts are so sexy that all the otakus say they can’t get enough of it!
But Urushihara Tomoshi refused to change his ways...

So we came to the conclusion that this great man would never be able to make a comeback in this life.

Before a Japanese animation series is launched, multiple joint-stock companies will invest in it, everyone will share the losses, and then share the dividends according to the agreement.

If there is a profit, everyone wins together, drinking wine and sharing meat. If there is a loss, no one family will suffer so much that they have to sell their children.

So when watching anime series, 99% of the time there will be a name like XX Production Committee or XX Production Group, which is a production team established by several companies.

This approach also directly leads to a long process for animation project establishment.

For example, the manga of "Cells at Work!" was published in 2015, became popular in 2016 and won many awards, and entered the preparation process for animation in the first half of the same year.

Then it took almost two years to prepare.

It wasn't until the first half of 2018 that the animation was announced, because it took more than a year to save enough start-up capital, and another half a year to recruit staff.

Oda Shingo's current assets are only close to 10 million yen, and it is difficult to even afford the cost of producing one episode.

So things like animation still depend on fate.

At this time, Oda Shingo received a call from the Ministry of Culture.

"Teacher Oda, you've worked hard!" The assistant director first thanked Oda Shingo and told him that the results were very good. At the same time, the number of online visitors exceeded 4. According to rough statistics, the cumulative number of visitors exceeded 50 in just one day.

The assistant director politely said that he should have come to the house, but he was so impatient that he called first to report the good news.

"No, no." Oda Shingo naturally knew that this was just a polite remark. Although he was just an assistant, he was also a public official, and his rank was higher than that of the director of the local security bureau.

"Mr. Oda, if possible, please release the second episode as soon as possible!" The assistant director asked Oda Shingo.

They had already seen the first two chapters brought by Oda Shingo last time, but contrary to their expectations, the official version released was a color version.

The effect was very good. Not only was the old director very satisfied, but even the employees of the Department of Culture felt that they had found a treasure.

"No problem, it can be uploaded tomorrow morning." Oda Shingo promised.

After expressing his gratitude, the assistant director brought another piece of news: "The Tokyo Board of Education contacted us and plans to include the characters and stories of "Cells at Work!" in the education systematization promotion tour in late autumn."

"Huh?" Oda Shingo was a little surprised.

It's just one episode, but it has such a huge social response?! The Education Committee even came to ask for help?

With the official support of the Agency for Cultural Affairs, the value of educational comics far exceeded Oda Nobuo's expectations!
