Chapter 1140: The King of Manga and Animation

Views:

Since the Blue Star Children's Channel was officially established, the ratings of Channel 2 have always been higher than those of Channel 1.

but.

This situation has gradually changed recently.

Over at the First Children's Channel, following the completion of one or two batches of old animations, some new animations were added. The ones behind the scenes were the headquarters of the five major film and television companies on Blue Star!

The level of the five major headquarters is indeed higher.

These five cartoons have performed very well in terms of ratings and word of mouth, and are helping Channel One to slowly seize the ratings from Channel Two.

Relative.

This is the second channel.

As Shadow's animations have been aired one after another, the new animations that took over are not as high quality as the previous works, causing the ratings to decline day by day!

This made the leaders of the second station realize:

Without Shadow's help, the second machine can't beat the first one!

The reason why Channel 2 can still compete with Channel 1 is purely because Shadow still has a few cartoons that have not been completed.

Just on this day.

Shadow's "Captain Tsubasa", which lasted for more than a hundred episodes, has also come to an end.

The relevant person in charge of Channel 2 urgently contacted Kaneki, hoping to get animation support from Shadow.

By this time, Lin Yuan had already learned the news.

Inside the studio.

Jin Mu said to Lin Yuan:

"Captain Tsubasa, which has more than 100 episodes, has finished airing today. Channel 2 is asking us for support. If we don't provide new animation, they will be defeated by Channel 1."

Lin Yuan: "What other works are being serialized?"

Kaneki said, "We only have SpongeBob SquarePants, My Little Pony, and Doraemon, the current top-rated show on Channel 2. The other seven shows are all finished."

Good job.

There were eleven animated series at the end of last year, and now only four are still being serialized.

These four are large volumes.

The total length of several seasons basically exceeds two hundred episodes, so it has not ended after three months of broadcasting.

"Seven?"

Since the last expansion, the number of staff at DreamWorks has skyrocketed.

These newcomers have been busy since entering the company. Under the leadership of the old employees, they have quietly produced many cartoons.

at the same time.

The Xingmang Animation Department also has a big business, and is also making cartoons for Yingzi to meet the needs of the second children's channel.

so far.

Both sides have produced ten cartoons according to Shadow's requirements.

This is the benefit of the company's expansion, otherwise Shadow would really be unable to meet this demand.

The gap in the second channel is seven.

Lin Yuan now has ten new animations on hand and will continue to work on them, so he is fully capable of filling the gap in the schedule.

just.

Now Zhongzhou has joined the Bluestar merger.

Shadow is going to dominate the Blue Star animation market again and gain a lot of fame and influence!

By the way, it can also promote the art exhibition at the end of this year.

Why not

Thinking of this.

Lin Yuan listed seven movie titles on the computer.

The first animation is called "A Pig Falls from the Sky".

This film can be regarded as taking over from the Journey to the West animation, helping to increase the popularity of Zhu Bajie and enhance the influence of the Journey to the West IP.

The second animation is called "Astro Boy".

This work was once popular all over the world and even sold overseas. It set a viewership record in Japan that no one has been able to break to this day.

Also worth mentioning:

This animation is the first foreign animation work introduced to our country.

Lin Yuan felt that this animation would definitely get a very high viewership rating.

The third animation is called "The Lotus Lantern".

This film is considered to be a continuation of the mythological animation series "Little Nezha".

It just so happened that Xingmang had filmed a TV drama version of "The Lotus Lantern" that year, which is also a well-known IP derived from the Journey to the West series.

The fourth animation is called "Martin's Morning".

This is one of the most beloved cartoons among the post-90s generation in China. Its alias is "Martin the Magician". It has a very high Douban score and is a co-production between China and foreigners.

The fifth one is "Black Cat Sheriff".

This work was cut short for some reason.

Fortunately, the regret of being cut short in the previous life can be made up on Blue Star. The scale here is acceptable and it can be broadcast with slight modifications.

The sixth one is "Little Tiger Returns Home".

This can be regarded as a successor to "The Adventures of Little Carp", and it is another animation with animals as the main characters. Many early Chinese animations are actually of very good quality.

The seventh one is "Ultraman Mebius".

The creation of Ultraman Tiga has been very successful. Let’s continue to develop the Ultraman universe and make it the most popular series of special effects films!

It's a combination of Chinese and Western cultures.

Lin Yuan made seven choices in one breath.

The thinking behind each choice is very clear.

Animation circle.

Industry insiders have been paying close attention to the ratings battle between the two children's channels.

"The Big Five are going to turn the tables."

“The ratings are catching up.”

"It's actually quite normal for the First Children's Channel to make a comeback, because before, it was the continental branches of the five major film and television companies that made the move, but now it's the headquarters of the five major companies in Central China that are making the move. The quality of the productions is indeed a notch higher, and the ratings have been revived in an instant."

“The ratings war keeps reshuffling.”

"Because many cartoons will gradually come to an end, if you want to increase ratings, you have to keep releasing new works. Every once in a while, the two TV stations will change a batch of cartoons, and everyone will enter a new round of tug-of-war, and the ratings competition will return to the starting point."

"yes."

"Just because your cartoon had great ratings before doesn't mean it will be so great in the future."

“Behind Channel One are five top companies, but behind Channel Two is just a shadow.”

“The work pressure at Channel 2 is very high!”

"I don't know if Shadow will continue to take action. His previous opponents were only the five major branches. Now the headquarters has taken action, but his new animation has not yet come out."

"Should he take action?"

"If Shadow strikes again, will he be a match for the five headquarters?"

The five major ones here.

People at the headquarters and branches were laughing.

"The level of your branch is really not good enough. The branches of five companies combined are not as good as one person from the other party. The higher-ups can't stand it anymore."

"Isn't this catching up?"

"They caught up because our headquarters took action. From now on, Channel 2 will have nothing to do. The people of Blue Star should watch the animations of the Big Five!"

“It’s not something you can take lightly.”

"This shadow is not simple."

"This person is good at both comic and animation creation. If Channel 2 asks him to continue, we may not be able to win."

"Come on."

"Who can compare with the five of us?"

"The company has conducted market research and now people's trust in the first model is increasing. The second model has gradually become boring."

This is not just bragging by the Big Five.

It is true that some children have lost interest in Channel 2.

For example, this night.

Qinzhou.

A certain household.

The two children are discussing:

"It seems that there aren't as many good animations on Channel 2 as before. Captain Tsubasa also ended yesterday. Why don't we watch Channel 1?"

"But I want to watch Doraemon."

"It's okay, we'll tune back to channel 1 when Doraemon comes on."

"That's fine."

"Hey, wait a minute!"

"It seems that Channel 2 has released a new animation!"

"This is?"

The two children are brothers. They would watch cartoons together every night. Their favorite program before was Channel 2.

However, the overall quality of Channel 2's animations has declined recently.

Tonight they were just planning to try out an animation on Channel 1 that had been gaining more and more attention recently, when they suddenly discovered that Channel 2 had released a new animation.

The name of this animation is "Astro Boy"!

The two children stopped changing channels and watched the content out of curiosity.

This look.

The two children were fascinated!

nice!

Very beautiful!

Astro Boy, a robot with human thinking, has a very lovable image and no child can resist it!

Not to mention that this Astro Boy is still so powerful!

You know, what children admire most is this kind of powerful hero!

After watching only the first episode, the two kids completely forgot about changing the channel.

Thanks to the TV series "Astro Boy", Channel 2's ratings crisis was alleviated a lot that night.

However.

This is just the beginning.

The following days.

Channel 2 has been arranging new animations of Shadow one after another, following those old animations which have remained popular until the end!

Before any party had time to react.

The ratings of Channel 2 once again suppressed Channel 1!

As if to the shadow:

No matter whether it is one of the five major branches or the headquarters, no one can rival him in the animation field!

The first to become popular was of course the earliest successor, "Astro Boy". The day after this animation came out, many kindergarten children were enthusiastically discussing:

"Have you watched Astro Boy on Channel 2?"

"who?"

"My mom said he's a little shota with 100,000 horsepower!"

"Robot, Astro Boy is a robot, and he looks so cool when he flies!"

This movie has very high ratings!

Then there is "A Pig Falls from the Sky".

"Zhu Bajie is so stupid!"

"Although he's not as powerful as Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie is so cute, and his big belly makes me laugh to death!"

“I love that song!”

"I can sing it. Bajie Bajie has a good heart. Bajie Bajie is cutely silly. He has a fat head and big ears. He lives a very free life!"

The children are more familiar with Journey to the West.

Next up is "Martin's Morning".

"Martin Martin~ Every morning when you wake up~Martin Martin~ There is a miracle waiting~"

“How interesting!”

“I loved the episode where Martin became the king!”

"I change my identity in every episode, which is what I look forward to most at the beginning of each episode!"

This cartoon is so creative!

Then there is "Black Cat Sheriff".

“It’s a bit scary!”

"Poor mantis husband..."

“But it’s beautiful!”

"Black Cat Sheriff, White Cat Captain!"

The scary plot of this cartoon has caused some controversy, but fortunately the scale is still acceptable.

There is also "Little Tiger Returns Home".

“Woo woo woo!”

“I’m so touched!”

"Those two bad guys always chase Little White Tiger with guns!"

"I hope Xiaohu can come home soon!"

This is a typical parent-child cartoon. Although it is childish, it always has a good audience.

Finally, there is Ultraman Mebius.

"Ultraman!"

"Just like Ultraman Tiga!"

"I feel like Meng is more powerful than Yous!"

“They are all amazing!”

Thanks to the foundation laid by "Ultraman Tiga", this special effects film has sparked discussions among countless people.

shadow!

shadow!

Still a shadow!

A month of hard work!

Every time Channel 2 finishes a work that is not produced by Shadow and has poor ratings, it will immediately come up with a new animation directed by Shadow!

at the same time.

Every time a new Shadow animation is broadcast, the ratings of Channel 2 will increase to a certain extent!

When all seven animations are broadcast.

The ratings of Channel 2 have already suppressed Channel 1, even though Channel 1 has the resources provided by the headquarters of five major film and television companies!

The industry is so shocked that they don’t know what to say!

The five major ones here.

Everyone felt like they were dreaming!

"Oh My God!"

"What the hell is going on?!"

"God knows how this shadow did it, seven new cartoons, each one more exciting than the last!"

"Especially that 'Astro Boy'!"

“That ‘Martin’s Morning’ is such a great idea!”

“I’m going to faint!”

"I'm dizzy, and the whole animation industry is dizzy!"

"There are so many good animations being thrown out there like they're free. Even the resources of the Big Five can't do anything about it!"

“It’s unscientific!”

"The five major headquarters have all knelt!"

"I just don't believe this!"

"Does he have any good animations? Keep bringing them out. If we drain him dry we can win!"

This group of people are incoherent.

But soon something even more incoherent happened!

Because "Black Cat Sheriff" is finished.

This is a short animation that was completed in half a month.

The new cartoon is called "The Wise Man, Ikki"!

That's right.

It's the cartoon whose theme song is "Kaki Kiki Kiki Kiki Kiki Kiki Ikki-ni".

Swish!

In just a few days, this movie became a hit!

It is even more popular than the already completed "Black Cat Sheriff", and children quickly became familiar with Ikkiu!

This moment.

The animation departments of the five major film and television companies collapsed collectively!

The entire industry was impressed, and no one dared to question Shadow's animation capabilities anymore!

Two waves!

This is the second wave!

In the last wave, Shadow produced eleven cartoons, and some people suspected that he was being exploited. But he turned around and produced seven classic animations in the second wave.

wrong.

Including "The Clever, Ikki", Shadow has brought out eight animations this time!

What else is there to say

Blue Star has been in the animation field for so many years.

People in the industry have never seen anything so perverted!

Don't forget.

Now it’s the Blue Star merger!

These cartoons from Channel Two are not only popular in Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao and Wei, but also in Zhongzhou which has just joined!

This is truly a global hit!

Although the influence is only among children, adults have of course also learned about these works through hearing and seeing, not to mention that many parents have the habit of watching animation with their children.

soon.

These animations sparked nationwide discussion!

"My children like watching cartoons more and more now."

"I always control the time and only let him watch for two hours a day."

"You watch Channel 2, right?"

"Yes, nowadays, children are watching Channel 2."

"I feel that there is no need for the literary and art association to set up two children's channels. Most children watch Channel 2 anyway."

"By the way, it seems that the animations for Channel 2 are all made by one person."

"I heard that, too."

"Qin Zhou's shadow."

"Qinzhou is really a place where talents are easily produced."

A hot topic among countless people.

Media from all continents are adding fuel to the fire.

"Children's carnival around the world, Blue Star's second children's channel has a sky-high ratings!"

"All the animations on the Second Children's Channel were created by one person, Qin Zhou Yingzi!"

"Is Shadow the King of Comics? Or the King of Animation?"

"The number one cartoonist on Blue Planet is best at animation!"

"Shadow animation and comics are both exploding in popularity!"

《From Blue Star children to teenagers, they are all caught by the shadow! 》

"Shadow notifies the Blue Star animation circle that Qinzhou's three famous friends are popular all over Zhongzhou!"

That's right.

This wave is a complete sweep.

Those people in Zhongzhou who just learned that Shadow was not only invincible in drawing comics, but also in making animations, finally had an intuitive feeling of Shadow's animation capabilities after learning about the situation of Channel 2!

"Depend on!"

"I feel more and more that it's not unfair that Tengzhai lost. They are both cartoonists, but the gap is quite big!"

"Tengzhai: I want to make animation too!"

“Hahahaha, first Tengzhai has to defeat the Big Five alone!”

"The Big Five have always been invincible, and they are still invincible now, but the animation department has encountered an unprecedented and terrifying opponent and is no longer invincible."

"Tsk tsk, I'm lucky enough to see the Big Five get humiliated in front of outsiders in my lifetime."

“In the past, it was all competition among the Big Five.”

"Now the five major forces have joined forces to deal with Shadow, but they still can't do anything about animation."

"That's right."

"Tell me, is Shadow's world ranking going to rise this time?"

“It will definitely increase!”

"This wave is too crazy. With so many classic cartoons, it's like one person supporting an entire Blue Star TV station!"

crazy!

Two months!

The Zhongzhou people had just become familiar with Shadow, and this person staged an unprecedented crazy personal show!

Just at this moment.

The official media under the Literature and Art Association actually reported on the events of Shadow and the Second Children's Channel.

Under reporting.

The Literary and Art Association gave the final verdict on Shadow’s achievements:

"When numerous popular cartoons are broadcast one after another and are warmly welcomed by all children, we have reason to believe that Shadow has become the undisputed king of animation on Blue Star. This identity is as dazzling as his crown as the king of comics..."

The outside world has always called Shadow the King of Comics.

This is the first time that the media under the Literary and Art Association has used this title to report Shadow, which can be regarded as official recognition.

That’s not all.

The official of the Literary and Art Association also gave Shadow a new title that is no less valuable than the former.

That is the king of animation!

This moment.

Everyone knows.

With the literary and art association promoting him so highly, Shadow's world ranking will rise next month.
