Chapter 112 16. This is called riding on the popularity (5k)

"Huh? It's not quite the same as the game?"

Kozawa Furukawa's fingers shook and almost threw the instant noodles in his hand to the ground.

He originally didn't plan to watch Onmyoji cartoons at first, but after he got home from get off work, he played games for a while, and when he was almost 7 o'clock, he couldn't help but turn on Tokyo TV.

The main thing is that if you don’t take a look, your heart will be itchy.

After all, Onmyoji is also a game he likes very much. Since the beginning of this game, Kozawa Furukawa has been a loyal fan of Onmyoji.

It is precisely because I am a loyal fan that I don’t have the courage to watch the animation, but I am afraid that the adaptation will ruin the original work.

The experience of the game is actually very different from the audience's feelings brought by the cartoon.

It is very difficult to only modify.

What's more, Kyoto Animation is not very famous. It has been doing outsourcing before. Even if the PV is beautiful, Kozawa Furukawa has to make a big question mark in his heart.

However, after watching the first episode of "Onmyoji", he was really infected by the characters in the plot and the animation.

The script is a brand new script, but it maintains the main context of the game, giving you a familiar feeling.

And when he saw the male protagonist Makura Toru push open the door of the hot spring hotel, a strong sense of anxiety arose in his heart.

Later, when the Onmyoji said there was no help and Makura Yuan hugged his aunt and cried bitterly, Kotoshi Furukawa's heart was already extremely depressed.

That feeling-

The feeling of playing Onmyoji once rushed over like a tide, irrigating his whole body, and then overflowing from his eyes.

The hero cried heartbrokenly, and he couldn't stand it.

Kozawa Furukawa wiped his tears with his handkerchief and scolded Kyoto Animation in his heart.

Damn, I'm going to be a knife in the first episode, do you still have to be a human being?

The reason why Kyoto Animation did this is definitely because it was influenced by the old thief of the Kunohara.

What are you doing? Can it still be done if you have animated it? Let’s give you a better ending.

...

Games and animations are still very different.

In the game, you can store clues in different places, and players can obtain information through exploration and integrate them together.

The turn-based system can be used in combat, without considering tension.

But animation is different. Animation pays great attention to dramatic effects, especially contradictions and explosive power. If it does not produce enough attractiveness and makes the audience look forward to it, then the animation will go far.

This is also the reason why it is magical.

Qing Zhiyuan has read and agreed to the script, and he also agrees with the idea of ​​Kyo-Ani's side—

Only when the script is adapted can Onmyoji's animation become more intense.

...

At the same time, Risheng Animation is here.

After just watching the first episode of "Onmyoji" produced by Kyoto animation, Tanidabe Seiyoshi was silent for a long time.

The colleagues next to them all started to discuss it.

"Sure enough, Kyoto Animation is an outsourcing company after all. It is the first time that it is the main animation production. It is obvious that the level is not enough."

"The plot line is relatively thin, and the production is not as refined as it is. It is obviously lower than ours."

"We are relieved this time, right?"

Their evaluations are relatively professional, and anyone with discerning eyes can tell what the problem is at a glance.

The shortcomings of the cartoon Onmyoji are really obvious. Some of the lines outlined in the shots are good, but the effect produced gives people a low-cost feeling.

You can feel the word "poor" from beginning to end.

Even in the most exciting fight part of the entire first episode, the protagonist's participation is very low. Some fight plots are not smooth enough, and the special effects are not fully in place, which looks more like a semi-finished product.

It is something that everyone knows that works like "Onmyoji" do not have the strength to be opponents of "The Legend of the First Sakura".

It’s just that the time is close and the ancient style is forcibly put together by people.

After reading this, everyone felt relieved.

"I have worked hard all night, so I'll..." A girl stood up and prepared to pack up her things and go home from get off work.

"Ha? Is that what you said?" At this moment, Tanidabe Seiyoshi asked.

Everyone was shocked and looked at the supervisor with strange and confusing eyes.

"Their shortcomings are obviously good, but I saw the opposite." Tanidabe Shigeyi said, "The production level of Onmyoji may not be enough, but the storyboard is quite powerful."

Moreover, there is a foundation for Qing Zhiyuan's original paintings here. Even if Kyoani lacks the master of original paintings, or their master of original paintings has not been cultivated, it can be quite good based on Qing Zhiyuan's original paintings.

"Have you seen the fight scene in the first episode? Although the male protagonist is not very involved, he is quite beautiful in his evasion of attack and counterattack."

"That kind of tension and oppression can still be given to us even under such a rough shot, and even sweating for it. Do you have the nerve to say that other people's animation is not good?"

In Tanidabe Shigeyi's view, it is precisely through such a simple and rough painting level that the sense of atmosphere conveyed by the entire animation becomes more prominent, whether it is the mirror or the smoothness of the movement.

It is obvious that the supervision of Kyoto animation is not simple.

and--

After watching this episode, Tanidabe Seiyoshi slightly changed his view on the game's animation changes.

The reason why we can do this is that the original artist of the game itself is also amazing.

If Kyoto Animation Company has a few more big-handed original artists and post-production, what would it be like?!

"Don't underestimate your opponent too much, try to improve your painting level." Tanidabe Shigeyoshi said.

"Okay! Supervisor!"

...

Three days later, on Monday, the students in the school all talked about the two cartoons on Friday.

"Nine, have you watched "The First Sakura War" and "Onmyoji" by Tokchi on Friday?"

Matsuura Ichiro said, "Yeah. I've seen it."

"How does it feel?"

"There is no comparison at all, right? I still feel excited when I think of Sakura's first blood, and I'm especially looking forward to what will happen next week. Oda Nobunaga is worthy of being the sixth day's great devil, so handsome."

"Moriranmaru is also very handsome, but unfortunately he sacrificed his life in real history to buy time for Oda."

"Ha? It's true or false? Why do you want to tell me this fact? It's speechless."

"Onmyoji is not as bad as you think?" Matsuura retorted, "The early portrayal is very delicate, and the plot and the characters' performances are all very progressive. And don't you think that when Makura Yuan hugged his aunt and cried bitterly, he was heartbroken?"

"Tsk tsk, you can still use heartbreaking idiom like this." The friend next to him hit Matsuura with his elbow and teased.

"I feel the same way, but the boy is embarrassed to say that he has cried, which is so embarrassing."

"Nonsense, have you cried too? So are me."

"Is it all that individuals are moved? Especially the atmosphere at that time, I basically thought I couldn't live anymore."

"Yes, my aunt is helpless. I cried heartbrokenly like the male protagonist. I felt so miserable that such a male protagonist was. Then when I heard that there was hope of saving him, I was so excited."

"Yeah, I can understand. When I saw the male protagonist sailing out to sea, I felt extremely moved and burst into tears when I saw him putting his sails on the sea.

"To be honest, this is the first time I can watch the first episode twice."

"Ah, when will it be on Friday?"

...

Originally, the broadcast of these two cartoons is not something worth paying attention to. If it weren't for a car crash, it would have been broadcast. You may have an impression of it and would not think about so many things.

But after the crash, it attracted widespread attention.

Not only Hitoshi's "The Story of the First Sakura", but also Kyoto Animation's "Onmyoji" has achieved very good ratings.

And after this, the popularity continues to ferment and is often mentioned as a comparison by people.

As a topic of conversation before and after meals.

Many media even commented on these two animations.

After the first week, the animation industry has bound these two animations together, and I especially want to know what to do in the future.

On Friday of the second week, both "The Legend of the Sakura" and "Onmyoji" submitted a good answer.

There is nothing to say about Chu Sakura's War Ji. He has rich experience in making animations and has many talents. The content of the second episode has even brought the work to a new level. Even the animation ratings have made considerable breakthroughs on Tokyo TV.

And the most touching thing is-

The second episode "Onmyoji" produced by Kyoto Animation actually has a very high quality improvement. The rough performance that could be seen in the first episode has basically been cleaned up here, and the painting level is obviously even more powerful.

By the third week, there were no flaws in the third episode of "Onmyoji", but people talked about it because of its [God-level Storyboard] and excellent scripts.

If "The Legend of the First Sakura" is a French feast that will start to amaze the audience and make people have to give high scores.

Then "Onmyoji" is like a Chinese food with a rich flavor and a more fragrant flavor as it goes on, which makes people feel excited.

In other words, Kyoto animation is progressing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In February, Onmyoji and Shin Sakura became popular at the same time.

Yes, it's like the Honnoji fire that appears in the first episode of the Battle of Chu Sakura, burning wildly, burning through half the sky.

After each Friday playback, people are inevitably gathered together to discuss these two animations.

...

After the animation became popular, pokeni was naturally a keyword that was often mentioned.

"Hey?!How could this happen?"

Akane Ayase tilted her head, her big eyes flashed, and she still didn't understand this matter very much.

"The animation we produce is not as good as Sunsheng, but it is more popular. Why is that?"

"How do you see that it's more popular?"

"Because many sellers have called us before, I want to order more Onmyoji cassettes." Takahashi Kazuma, the marketing department's bare commander, smiled and took over the conversation.

"and……"

Akane Ayase glanced at the cardboard box in the corner, "We've received more blades."

Qing Zhiyuan:...

Mom, when did the blades become popular?

"President, did you think of this layer from the beginning?" Akane Ayase lay her hands on Aochigen's table and looked at him with confusion and admiration, "Because I remember Kyoto Animation called to ask if she wanted to change the schedule, but you refused.

Is it because I thought of today?”

As for this, Qing Zhiyuan stopped pretending, just sat on the chair, turned around slowly, and smiled proudly.

"Do you know what this is called?"

"What's the name?"

"Get riding on the popularity." Qing Zhiyuan said, "If others have a stronger reputation and we bind ourselves to each other, we will instead let others notice it."

Sega and Rentian often do this kind of thing, but it is just through stomping. For example, Sega likes to implant it in advertisements.

Ren Tiantang’s handheld machine is too low, it is still a black and white screen, so it’s better to play with color.

Of course, Ren Tiantang is not idle either, and the advertisements often mock Sega's handheld battery life.

Overall, Ren Tiantang must be at a disadvantage.

In any marketing case that takes advantage of the popularity, the one who is less famous will always take advantage of it.

In other words, this is actually a win-win outcome, just those with less fame win more.

"And there is another psychological factor here," said Qing Zhiyuan. "People prefer people who start at a low level and can grow quickly, and are more attractive than those who are already very good and achieve better results."

The reason why the TV series "Dragon Sakura" was later resounded through neon lights has even moved and inspired many Chinese audiences because the starting point of several protagonists created by Long Sakura is very low.

The countdown of the whole grade, and after working hard, I was admitted to the university with the highest number of Neon.

This incident is more inspiring than being admitted to a university with the highest number in Neon.

"The Bottom Hot Girl" also took this path.

In China, it is more touching to look back than to become a genius.

"This is what Kyoto animation is now," said Aochie. "You can understand that Risheng Animation is among the top three in the grade, and Kyoto Animation is a poor student at the bottom, but now this guy at the bottom can actually get to the top of the grade. Isn't it very exciting and inspiring?"

"Wow!" Akane Ayase's whole body shook and reached out to pat Ao Chi-gun's back, "President, are you too awesome?"

"As... can't you be a little lighter?!"

...

Although everyone likes to compare "The Legend of the First Sakura" and "Onmyoji" together, it is mainly because both are ancient-style themes and are also broadcast on the same day on the same TV station.

The last cartoon has just ended, and the memory has not yet dissipated, and the next one is here.

It's hard not to compare it.

In fact, there are big differences in the narrative story and worldview.

In fact, things like collision with the subject matter can only be described as coincidences.

Even if Risheng Company wants to sue Kyoto Animation for plagiarism, there is no way to do so.

After all, they are adapting the game. The game was released two years ago. In terms of creation time, Onmyoji must be ahead.

If Qing Zhiyuan is a little shameless, he can also sue the Risheng animation for plagiarizing their "Onmyoji"

...

Overall, although this crash was accidental, it brought extremely high popularity to both Risheng and Kyoto animation, and Risheng was also a little stunned.

At first I felt a little angry, after all, they are the stronger and more famous party, so I feel a little unhappy when I am [smashed by].

But seeing the ratings continue to rise and the videotapes are selling better and better, Risheng Animation is relieved.

Even, Risheng Animation tasted the sweetness for the first time, and she was eager to continue to be [smashed]. The higher the topic, the better.

Kyoani didn't expect this to be the result.

When I was the main producer for the first time, I actually achieved good results.

The main thing is that it feels like being scolded and despised at the beginning, to being competitive, gradually catching up, and slowly transitioning to being praised by others. It is really good.

After the third episode was broadcast, Hideaki Hachida, the president of Kyoto Animation, came to Tokyo to visit Ao Chi-gen and brought him a lot of gifts.

"Thank you, President Qing, you are really amazing. Thank you for choosing us."

"No, no." Aochie-gun waved his hand and said, "This is because Kyoto animation itself has high potential, but it was just that it was not able to perform it before."

Speaking of potential...

No one agrees more with this sentence than Hachida Hideaki.

He himself did not expect that the company's employees could be inspired to this extent and made great progress in such a short period of time.

This is simply a miracle.

"Inspiring us in this way, without your encouragement to us and your expectations for us, we would not have worked so hard or made such great progress. Thank you for all this."

Speaking of this, Hachida Hideaki couldn't help but sigh again.

President Qing is simply a management and inspiring genius.

This is the first time he has seen everyone in Kyoto animation to this extent, like burning.

"Motivation?" Qing Zhiyuan felt a little confused.

"Yeah." Hachida nodded deeply, "At that time, Kyoto Animation heard that it was going to crash with Hisheng, and it was broadcast on the same day on the same TV station. There was no confidence in my heart. Everyone thought they were going to be defeated by the other party.

In such a bleak situation, President Qing gave us hope.

Because you said-

Believe in yourself.

Let us not change the broadcast time, but instead compete with Risheng directly.

I know that you are telling us not to be afraid, because the real opponent is ourselves. Only by showing the courage to face strong enemies, perseverance and 200% of efforts can we win.

Without you, we would never have made such great progress.”

Hey?

Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment.

So that's what I think?

...
