Gu Miao's guess was accurate.

The box office of the movie "Okja Love Story" was indeed average. I can't say it's particularly bad, but it can't be said to be very good either.

One week after its release, Neon's domestic box office was approximately 75.84 million yen. Judging from this trend, it is estimated that it will have about 300-500 million yen by the time it is released.

It’s a success if you really get your money back!

Originally, he had no expectations for the box office of this movie, so after seeing this performance, Gu Miao didn't feel particularly disappointed.

At least the reputation is pretty good...

"Tamako Love Story" was originally launched as a word-of-mouth movie. The box office was a little less successful, but the word-of-mouth can be stable.

In this regard, the performance of Okja's Love Story can be said to be in line with expectations, and its reputation has been exceptionally good, with everyone who has seen it saying it is good.

[Childhood sweethearts are so good. It would be great if I also had a childhood sweetheart like Tamako...]

[There was no kissing or hugging, just looking at each other from a distance. Just one sentence made me burst into tears. It is indeed a Wanbao, highly recommended!]

[No one will not be moved by this ignorant and young first love, remember! No one...]

【Tamako...hehe! My Okja...】

[A very good movie, it made my lips spin, Love Comes from Porcelain, Love Comes from the River of Dark Dragon!]

In fact, it is not difficult to understand the problem that the movie has continuous positive reviews and extremely high ratings on major ACGN forum websites, but the box office growth is slow.

"Tamako Love Story" is adapted from the TV animation "Tamako Market", and "Tamako Market" is a small-circle animation after all, and not many people have watched it.

Therefore, even if the reputation is great, most people have never seen the original TV series and will naturally not be interested in the theatrical version.

If the popularity of the TV original "Tamaja Market" could reach the level of "Dragon Ball" or "Superman", with its current reputation, the box office would have skyrocketed.

But then again.

There’s nothing wrong with a masterpiece that’s self-motivated. For an animated movie like this, it’s a good thing that it doesn’t leave the industry, because once its influence leaves the industry, who knows what valuables will be attracted to it?

Gu Miao has also been working hard to promote the introduction of "Yuzi Love Story" to domestic release.

Unfortunately, the movie's box office performance was so mediocre that many domestic theater chains and film distributors were simply not interested in it.

"Then it won't go to theaters."

Gu Miao thought for a while and decided to log on to the Wanbao Video website to pay for viewing, and was too lazy to go to the cinema.

Anyway, after half a day of tossing around at the box office, you won’t get much, so it’s better to go directly to the online version to save yourself the trouble.

Kyoani has no objection to this.

For a theatrical version like "Tamako Love Story", it is not a big problem whether it can be released in overseas theaters, as long as there is a channel for overseas audiences to see the film.

The online version is also available, but if you just pay to watch it, how much should it be priced at?

"Just 3 yuan!"

Gu Miao thought about it and felt that the previous 6 yuan was still too expensive, especially for a film like "Yu Zi Love Story", which many viewers were reluctant to spend to watch.

Then you can watch it for three yuan!

This price is already quite cheap for many online versions of movies that require payment to watch.

It’s only three yuan, and no one will probably pick it up if it’s thrown on the ground. Everyone spends three yuan to experience a pure and beautiful youth love story. There are quite a lot of people willing to pay.

There will definitely be a fee.

After all, "Okja Love Story" has given up showing in Chinese cinemas. If the online version is still broadcast for free, wouldn't it be a big loss?

Don’t forget, although the investment in this movie is not high and it is not as good as the "Dragon Ball" theatrical version, it still cost a lot of money to produce.

How can you just give someone free sex?

…

It’s a new year again!

Along with the happy New Year's greetings, the Wanbao Cup Go Junior Open has also come to an end.

The primary school group was no surprise.

A 10-year-old Ding Duan boy from China successfully won the national championship title, and in the middle school competition, the champion turned out to be a female chess player from Bingcheng.

This is surprising!

You must know that in the Go world, the number of female players is far less than that of male players, and there are even fewer female players who can achieve results, let alone win the championship against many male players.

Even Xiao Ke was shocked and called her "good guy, this is a rare Go genius girl!"

"How about than Eagle-chan?"

"Yingjiang? It's okay! Yingjiang doesn't have such terrifying chess skills at her age." Xiao Ke said with disdain.

Got it, Eagle Sauce Plus version!

Gu Miao nodded clearly, presented the awards to the two champions, and encouraged them to keep up their efforts and achieve greater success in the following world championships.

Then he came to Jiangchuan No. 3 Primary School.

This is the filming location for the animation "Martin's Morning", and it is also the school scene of Martin, Lorna and Guo Mo in the animation.

The original version of "Mornings with Martin" was a Sino-French co-production, so it's hard to say whether the animation was filmed anywhere. Even if it was filmed, it was probably in France.

But this is the Wanbao version...

Now that the producer has been changed and the animation "Martin's Morning" has become a purely domestic animation, the filming location has naturally become Jiangchuan, and the school has become Jiangchuan No. 3 Primary School.

The framing matter was actually completed a long time ago.

Gu Miao came here this time, on the one hand, to tell the school leaders to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings after the animation is broadcast.

On the other hand, he also came to school to find suitable voice actors for the animation "Martin's Morning".

In the animation, in addition to the fixed iron triangle of Martin, Guo Mo and Luo Na, there are also several equally interesting supporting characters, such as the head teacher, Mr. Dong, the dean of education, Director Ge, Principal Gao, etc.

Teacher Dong already has a voice candidate.

But for the roles of Director Ge and Principal Gao, the animation production team hired professional voice actors, but they failed to produce the effects that "dean" and "principal" should have.

Then, Gu Miao came up with an extremely bold idea.

Since it is difficult for professional voice actors to achieve perfect effects, why not let real deans and principals dub animations?

So here he is.

When he expressed his intention to come, the principal and director looked at each other.

Let them dub animations?

No!

They don't have much experience in dubbing. It's okay if you ask them to train students, but if you ask them to dub animations, isn't that deliberately making things difficult for others?

"You don't need to deliberately learn any skills. As long as you keep your usual working style, you don't even need to memorize your lines. You can just use them as you like."

Gu Miao smiled and said, "Just pretend that in reality, there really is a student like Martin."

Acting in true colors?

When the principal and dean heard this, they thought it was quite interesting. Since they were acting in their true colors, it seemed like they couldn't do it too.

What's more, what a rare experience it is to participate in animation dubbing work? The reason why they hesitate is because they are worried about their lack of ability.

"Okay, we agree."

After securing the principal and dean of the third primary school, the dubbing team of the animation "Martin's Morning" welcomed two heavyweight guests.

Other voice actors have real-life identities that have nothing to do with animated characters, and they rely solely on their skills and abilities to dub.

Only the two characters of "Principal Gao" and "Director Ge" have the same identities on and off the screen. They play their true colors and their tone and tone of reprimanding the students are simply amazing.

After hearing this, Gu Miao called her an expert.

Yes, this is right!

As expected of a real principal and a real dean, the tone and tone of his words made the animated character come alive in an instant.

Especially Director Ge.

The "double-faced man" who tries his best to please the current principal while secretly reporting to his superiors in the hope of overturning the principal's rise to power is truly worthy of life.

It doesn't look like an act. I suggest the principal check this dean after he gets back!

…

The production of "Martin's Morning" is progressing quite smoothly, with basically no major obstacles encountered.

Under Gu Miao's supervision, the animation has completed nearly 30 feature episodes, and it is expected that all content production for the first season will be completed before the Spring Festival holiday.

The speed can be said to be very fast.

However, this is a unit drama, and it is filled with a lot of dialogue, and there are no complicated fight storyboards, so the production difficulty is not high.

certainly!

Another factor that contributed to the rapid progress of the production was the monotony of the scenes and characters.
