Chapter 392: The new work is announced
Cartoon Island, Meng Huo wanted to applaud CCTV.
Even he didn't expect CCTV to act so quickly, and the best situation he expected was that those directors in the animation department were fired. However, CCTV was unexpectedly generous, and even compensated 30 million, not to mention the last one to apologize on the news network - Meng Shu had never seen a news broadcast apologize in his previous life.
All in all, Lu Xiang's actions made him very happy, and CCTV animation was closed for rectification, and he should not be able to come out within a month, and "Detective Conan" had no competitors during this time.
"It's a pity that CCTV apologized in such a low voice, and we couldn't sue them."
However, Alice, who was standing in Meng Huo's office, felt a pity, she had never tried to do such a big thing as 'suing CCTV', and she always hoped that CCTV would give her this opportunity.
However, CCTV's response was too correct, they dealt with the incident quickly and accurately, and even gave an apology and compensation, which won people's favor at once. If Phoenix Company has to be cheeky to sue them at this time, it will cause a lot of commotion.
"Forget it, that's already good."
Meng Shu said with a smile, the compensation of 30 million is not a small amount, and this incident is equivalent to making a free advertisement for "Detective Conan", and Phoenix Company has made a lot of money.
"But what happened to the directors and the animation team leader?"
He asked again.
......As soon as she thought of this, Alice couldn't help but cover her mouth and laughed softly: "I heard that after yesterday's press conference, those people were beaten by the angry crowd, and a director was hospitalized. The rest of the people were so frightened that they left Yanjing. I don't know where to go now. β
"Leaving Yanjing?" Meng was a little surprised. But he thought about it and didn't continue to ask. Anyway, this happened, and those people had a ruined reputation, and they couldn't make their debut in animation and journalism again.
After Alice left, Meng Shu turned on the computer in the office and looked at it.
He opened several news websites in a row and could see that "Detective Conan" was listed in the hot news, and Weibo and forums were full of netizens' speeches.
Thanks to this incident, the current "Detective Conan" is simply too popular to be any more popular. Many people who have never read comics and animations know it because of CCTV's apology, and in yesterday's search rankings, "Detective Conan" alone occupied the top of five search engines.
"It's so popular, it's a pity not to take advantage of it."
Meng Huo looked at the lively scene on the Internet and couldn't help but think that the popularity of "Detective Conan" was at its peak, and if it could make full use of this popularity, Phoenix Company would get more benefits.
Nowadays, Manga Island gathers a large number of reporters, and if you take the opportunity to announce something, then the number of Cheng dΓΉ who is reported and followed will increase a lot.
"Good ......"
Meng Shu clapped his hands and hurriedly instructed the secretary to prepare for a press conference.
The press conference was held in the afternoon. As soon as the news broke, the reporters on Cartoon Island became agitated. At noon, the building was filled with people.
"It's a pity that the teacher has expressed it, I don't know what he thinks of CCTV's apology!" "It would be better if we could insist on prosecuting!" β
These reporters are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, although CCTV apologized, but they prefer that the confrontation between Phoenix and CCTV continues, and everyone takes it for granted that the content of this press conference is the matter of "Detective Conan". But when the press conference officially opened, they realized that something was wrong.
"What's that painting?"
Next to the lecture in the conference room, a drawing board covered by a black cloth aroused the interest of the reporters, but they were blocked by the staff and could not get close.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet!" Alice walked into the conference room to calm the excitement of the reporters, and when the atmosphere calmed down, she walked up to the stage and said: "Thank you all for participating in this temporary press conference, this meeting has three contents, the first is our company's response to the incident of "Detective Conan", I will host and accept questions. β
"The second item is the release of the Gundam Seed Blu-ray disc and the details of the voice actors' performances, which will be co-hosted by me and Mr. Ho Xi...... Finally, there is a new work that Phoenix Company is about to start, and the specific content will be explained by Mr. He Xi. β
Alice's words made the whole room as silent as death, the first two things were acceptable, but the third thing was ......
"Damn, it's a new work!?"
"Crazy, why don't you regret that the teacher has taken stimulants! It's new again! β
The reporters were excited, and some sensitive people immediately called the TV station and asked if they could find time to broadcast the teacher's new work live.
Of course, most stations can't do that, but a few realized the importance of the event and went live half an hour and an hour later. Half an hour later, the live broadcast was Ninghai TV, and many people in Ninghai were attracted by this live broadcast, including Yang Liang, who was a guest at Longteng Company.
After receiving the news, Yang Liang immediately turned on the TV in the reception room and watched the press conference nervously.
When he watched it, Alice had already finished her speech on the matter of "Detective Conan", which was similar to what most people expected, Phoenix accepted CCTV's compensation, praised their actions, and also promised not to sue CCTV. As soon as this statement came out, the matter of "Detective Conan" can basically be said to have been perfectly resolved, and CCTV and Phoenix Company did not go off the rails.
Later, Meng and Alice announced the release of the Gundam Seed Blu-ray Disc, which will be released on June 28th. On the same day, Phoenix will offer a popular voice actor show in Tokyo, Ninghai, and Suhua City, all of which will be based on Gundam Seed songs and stage plays, with each of the three Gundam singers in control of a home ......
"It's the mysterious girl voice actor who uses Ninghai as the home field!?"
Just as Yang Liang was distracted, a voice interrupted him, and he looked back, Li Ming, the editor-in-chief of Longteng Novels, walked in at some point, and was looking at the TV in surprise.
"Editor-in-Chief Li!" Yang Liang hurriedly got up and greeted: "I'm sorry, I didn't notice your ...... just now while watching TV."
"It's okay, it's me who should apologize, it's my fault for making the guest wait so long." Li Ming smiled, he then sat down next to Yang Liang, and said, "There is a lot of work this afternoon, if you don't mind, can we talk while watching TV?" I was very interested in Mr. Ho's press conference. β
"Of course......" Yang Liang didn't object, he had business dealings with Li Ming, so he didn't care about random orders, and of course, more importantly, he also wanted to know the news of Hexi's new work.
"You're here for the novel, aren't you? Zhongxia Company wants to adapt novels into comics again? Li Ming looked at the TV with his eyes and said with a smile: "Aren't your comics saturated?" I didn't want to give it to you a while ago. β
Zhongxia Company and Longteng Company, the cooperation between the two is a novel adaptation.
"This time it's different." Yang Liang frowned slightly, and said: "This time the novel is going to be directly adapted into animation, we hope that you recommend the most popular novel adaptation animation, and the circulation of a single copy of the novel must be at least 50 million copies." β
"Oh? Million? Li Ming turned his head to look at him, and his eyes lit up: "Are you willing to pay?" β
With a circulation of 50 million copies, this is the lowest in China and the level of a first-class novelist, which is twice as many as the sales of He Xi's comics. These novelists are often wealthy, and their copyright fees and adaptation requirements are very high, and ordinary people simply do not get their approval. In the past, Zhongxia companies were reluctant to risk expensive money, and they preferred to make their own original animations, but how has this changed today?
"Money is not an issue." Yang Liang nodded and said: "This time the cartoonist is unusual, to be honest, we are not sure, we have to show him the novel first, and only if he agrees, this matter can continue." β
"Then it's hopeless......"
Li Ming suddenly lost interest, who dared to drag the cartoonist like this, the novelist would not pay attention to it at all. The status of first-class novelists is very high, and they see their works as not just a matter of money, and they are very strict with the adaptation, and it is strange that the arrogant novelist and the arrogant cartoonist can be successfully adapted.
"You don't have any regrets, if so, then there are still some words."
Li Ming sighed, who else in China can make more ZuΓ² animation than He Xi? If it was a pity to adapt the novel, no matter how arrogant the novelist was, he would agree.
"No, this time the cartoonist is not ......in vain" Yang Liang shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I don't know if you have heard the name Jiang Tianshi." β
Li Ming was stunned, he had heard it, of course he had heard it, and he was still sitting at the same table with the young man at the party.
"......" Li Ming frowned slightly: "The second young master of the Jiang family wants to make an animation?" β
If it were him, there was indeed a possibility of surpassing He Xi, Jiang Tianshi showed his painting skills at the Spring Festival Gala, no worse than He Xi, and this guy has one of the biggest advantages - not bad money. The novel is in his hands, excellent drawing skills and huge funds, and the animation quality will definitely be very high.
"I'm not sure yet......" Yang Liang shook his head, Jiang Tianshi will only make animation and comics if he is sure to win, Zhongxia Company remembered this matter, so he wanted to show him novels that were far more famous and influential than He Xi comics, and try to see if he could impress the young master: "Our chairman ......"
Yang Liang was about to explain clearly, but heard Meng Shu's voice on the TV.
"This new work is the same animation as "Detective Conan", and the theme is a magical girl ......"
This sentence made Yang Liang's whole person stunned: "Animation, animation!?" β
He turned his head to stare at the TV, and his heart was pounding - what a pity that the new work turned out to be an animation! Jiang Tianshi always thought it was a movie, but now he has to be angry!
"Haha...... There is hope, there is hope that we can convince him!" (To be continued......)
