Luo Gaofeng was a little confused.

Huaying snatched the animation subsidies from small production companies? What does that mean

Without time to think about it, he immediately clicked on the question with a lot of confusion and doubt, and looked below the title:

#What do you think of Huaying snatching subsidies from small companies, causing their animation producers to give up their dreams of more than ten years and be forced to change careers

Description of the problem: Recently, Blue Star □□ launched a major investigation of all TV stations regarding animation subsidies. A former animation producer who has changed careers expressed his feelings on Weibo, saying that Huaying took away the subsidy for his last animation work, causing him to spend all his savings and be forced to change careers. At the same time, Huaying's new work "Detective Conan" was returned by Xingning TV for unknown reasons. How should we view this incident

[Picture][Picture]

Luo Gaofeng subconsciously clicked on the two pictures under the question description.

The first picture was similar to the public account article he had just seen. It showed a screenshot of the official announcement on Weibo about Huaying's new work being returned by Xingning TV Station.

The second picture is a screenshot of a Weibo post that had been forwarded, commented on, and liked for less than half an hour. Looking at the content, it just matches the animation producer who expressed his feelings in the description of the problem:

Jiang Wenzhe v: I received news in the evening that the □□ had begun to deal with industry parasites who used the name of animation producers to defraud subsidies. I didn't know what to say for a while. In fact, I was still very happy. The dawn we had waited for so long in the darkness was finally no longer an illusory possibility, but a reality that was within reach.

But I still feel a little regretful in my heart. When I finally waited for this day, all of this had nothing to do with me anymore.

Nine-Colored Fox: I wanted to ask this before, wasn't Director Jiang an animation producer before? Why did he suddenly change his career without saying anything? Did something happen

Jiang Wenzhe v replied to Nine-Colored Fox: Actually, there is nothing much to say. After all, it has all passed. It was just that I was unlucky at the time. When I sent my animation work to Xingning TV Station for review, it happened to run into another big company's big work. That animation consumed all my savings, and the TV station gave the subsidy to that big company. I had no choice but to change my career. Maybe I am really not cut out for animation.

Nine-Colored Fox: Why? Shouldn't this subsidy be used to support small and medium-sized animation companies? A large company is actually competing with independent animation producers for subsidy quotas. Isn't this too shameless

Jiang Wenzhe v replied to Jiusehu: Pat me on the head, don’t be angry, after all, the other party is recognized by the industry as the most promising animation company, it is normal for the TV station to take more care of them.

Although Jiang Wenzhe did not say it explicitly, the meaning of his words was obvious - when it comes to "the most promising animation company recognized by the industry", who else could it be other than Huaying Animation

Combined with the unexpected incident that Huaying's new work was inexplicably returned by Xingning TV Station, everything seems unknown.

But how is that possible

Luo Gaofeng didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it. In his opinion, even if Huaying had problems, it would never make a wrong stand on such major issues. This can be seen from the contract that Huaying Comics gave, which was completely different from the industry.

Would a film producer like this try to snatch a subsidy from a small production company

Luo Gaofeng didn't believe it.

I have a conflict of interest. I am half an animation industry practitioner. After all, I still have to make a living in the circle. I dare not offend the big guys, so I will remain anonymous for now. The following are what I saw as an industry worker. Those who understand will understand. Fans, please don't come to confront me. If you argue, you are right.

What is an animation grant

In fact, it means literally that this subsidy was specially established by Blue Star □□ to support the development of the animation industry. Generally speaking, in order to show financial support to Blue Star Animation Company, □□ will issue subsidies to animation companies that meet the requirements. It is also the most direct form of support.

However, in order to activate this subsidy, a special condition must be met: the animation works produced by the company must pass review and be broadcast on TV.

In recent years, some animation producers have been taking advantage of this loophole and working with people from TV stations to defraud state funds in the name of animation production. This is what the government is investigating now, and it is expected that a thorough rectification will be carried out to clean up the interest chain within the TV station.

What Huaying Animation snatched away was the subsidy from director Jiang Wenzhe.

At this point, some people may be wondering, hasn't Huaying made a lot of profits in recent years? How can such a large company still care about such a small subsidy

Actually, if it was the old art studio, I'm afraid they wouldn't really look down on this subsidy, but now...

Huaying has made a lot of money over the years, but because it has been expanding into other industries, the expenses in various aspects are not small. For example, this year's Harry Potter sequel and the theme park under construction are very large expenses. Of course, for the future development of the company, this investment is a bit aggressive, but it is understandable.

The problem is that at this juncture when Huaying’s funding was being dragged down by CG animated films and theme parks, Muxuxing thought of running a school.

Maybe you don't quite understand what this means. In Blue Star, running a school is extremely costly. In the first few years after a school is built, there is basically no possibility of making a profit. In order to ensure the development of the school, money has to be continuously invested in it. Even if the subsidy is a small amount, it is still a piece of meat.

To be honest, Muxuxing did not handle this matter very properly.

He himself was happy, using the school and "The Old Man and the Sea" to gain fame and reputation, a win-win in the commercial art field, and also completed the breakthrough from an ordinary animation producer to an animation master. But Huaying Animation was in trouble. The liquid funds on Huaying's books were ridiculously small. If Huaying's next big production failed, it would be questionable whether the company could still exist.

As for the issue of snatching subsidies from small producers, there is nothing much to say. No matter how well Huaying disguises itself, it is essentially capital. The animation circle is ultimately a game for capital. There is no difference between Huaying and Yunsu, they are just birds of a feather.

The whole answer was without any hostility, and it looked like an animation practitioner was telling a fact, but Luo Gaofeng felt a pang in his heart, and his heart sank.

Regardless of whether Huaying Animation really snatched away the relief funds that should have belonged to this independent animation producer, as a fan of Huaying, Luo Gaofeng naturally believed in Huaying. In comparison, he was more willing to believe that there was probably some misunderstanding.

But the problem is that this storm came at a very inappropriate time.

At this moment, it has been less than a week since the Yunsu Group was blacklisted by the entire network. Although the related hot searches have disappeared and it seems that no one mentions this matter anymore, Luo Gaofeng, who was once one of them, knows that the anger of netizens has not completely disappeared, and the hostility towards Yunsu has not yet completely dissipated.

Yunsu Group casually suppressed the hot search as if nothing had happened. On the surface, it seemed to have suppressed the anger of netizens, but in fact, it had the exact opposite effect.

If the animation circle was really calm during this period of time and nothing happened, it would be fine. However, once something similar to what happened to Yunsu Group happens again, and someone is fanning the flames, the anger of netizens will inevitably be provoked once again, and the party that is the target of public criticism will inevitably bear the anger of everyone!

Look at the comments section again.

If the tone of the answerer was relatively calm, then the netizens in the comment section below were already scolding him without mercy:

“… I thought it was disgusting enough that capital like Yunsu didn’t consider the development of the industry, but I didn’t expect Huaying to be no better. They even wanted to snatch the subsidies of the unknown people. Ugh!”

"They took away the bailout funds of small companies, forced the producers to change their careers, and destroyed the dreams of more than ten years. Is this the legendary conscience of the industry? If this is also considered the conscience of the industry, then what is Yunsu Animation, which was blacklisted by the entire Internet a few days ago? An angel?"

"The animation industry is the worst. The media was boasting that the animation era was coming soon, but I think it's more like the animation corpse era. With Yunsu Huaying, a cancer that hinders the development of small and medium-sized companies, it's a wonder that the Blue Star animation industry can thrive! I thought Huaying was different, but I didn't expect it to be a black sheep as well. It's fucking disgusting!"

"It was Yunsu before, and now it's Huaying. I don't know what to say, it feels like this industry is completely rotten to the core. I don't know what to say, maybe it's just like what the above person said, this is an era of anime corpse collection."

Looking at the one-sided criticism of Huaying in the comment section, Luo Gaofeng remained silent.

Not only that—

He looked at the messages that kept popping up in the chat group called Huaying Fan Group:

Qimi Yangguang has left the group chat.

Xiefengxiyu has left the group chat.

Dengying has left the group chat.

Almost every second, someone in this once lively group chat quit, including some who had discussed Huaying's animation works with him on weekdays. At the same time, messages in the group were constantly refreshed, some were in disbelief and tried to appease others, some cursed and quit the group without looking back...

Those wooden warehouses that were aimed at Yunsu a few days ago were now all aimed at Huaying without exception, and some were even more aggressive than others.

How pure the love was in the past, how sharp the disappointment and anger are today.

This is actually a very normal thing.

If a good person wants to become a Buddha, he must often go through 81 trials and tribulations. But if a wicked person wants to become a Buddha, he only needs to put down his butcher knife.

Because no matter what Yunsu does, he will be scolded. When everyone has become accustomed to its "evil", an occasional good thing will become particularly precious.

This is completely the opposite for Huaying.

The higher you stand, the harder you fall. The more special meaning you are given by everyone, the higher and unique expectations you have, and once they are broken, the more disgust and criticism you will receive.

Luo Gaofeng moved his fingers.

He wanted to say something, but the evidence before him was so clear that even if he didn't want to believe it, he had no way to explain it.

He thought of Huaying.

He had never hoped that Huaying could come out to clarify or explain as much as he did now. Any explanation was fine. As long as Huaying explained, he was willing to believe it. But when he opened Weibo and found the familiar Huaying Animation official Weibo, he did not see any signs of explanation. Instead, another business Weibo was pinned at the top.

"Detective Conan" is about to be launched.
