Chapter 1121 Duoduo

"Bear Bears Summer Party" gave Wanbao a good start in the second half of the year.

On the TV animation side, the second season of "Animation World" and the new season of "Tom and Jerry" are not bad either.

The only regret is that most of these animations have achieved great results on TV platforms, but have not made much breakthrough on online platforms.

fortunately!

In mid-August this year, Wanbao promptly launched the fourth season of "That Year of the Rabbit", which can be regarded as retaining a trace of the dignity of online animation.

Natu is a god-level online animation!

I dare not say anything else, at least on the Internet platform, there are very few animations that can surpass Natu in terms of influence, reputation and playback volume.

Taking all aspects into consideration, it is no exaggeration to say that Natu is the number one online animation produced in China. Even those web-based animations produced by Penguin cannot compare to Natu in terms of influence alone.

The first season of "Three Thousand Questions of Naughty Blue Cat" will be aired soon.

Because the broadcast platform was determined in advance, Gu Miao didn't worry about it so much. After finishing the film in the later stage, she threw the film to CCTV Children.

He didn't care about any of these things.

In fact, as Keke's due date approaches, he has not been to the company for almost two weeks, and his usual work reports are conducted via video calls.

The good news is that although he is not on the production team, everyone can understand that the post-production of the animation is in order and there are no big messes.

The bad news is that although he is not in the company, he needs to make decisions on many things related to the "Blue Cat Naughty Questions" project, so he is still as busy as usual.

The Naughty Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions premiered on CCTV Children's Channel. Gu Miao saw it at home.

He had just finished watching the first two episodes, and before he had time to call to inquire about the ratings, a strange phone call from Zhonghai came to him.

"Burn DVD?"

As soon as Gu Miao listened to the DVD, she immediately became interested.

Blue Cat is a big player in CDs and discs. When he was young, his family had a complete set of Blue Cat Three Thousand Questions VCD discs, and he spent all his pocket money to buy the discs.

Someone was eyeing the "Three Thousand Questions of Naughty Blue Cat" series and wanted to burn CDs for it and sell it, which he expected.

It's just that there's something he doesn't understand.

Be it VCD or DVD, these are all outdated technologies. In today’s mobile Internet era, how can so many people still buy CDs?

Wanbao's optical disc burning business was just for fun and didn't make much money.

As the copyright holder, Wanbao cannot make any money, so how can these optical disc recording companies that come to buy the license make money?

Or do they have other options?

After further questioning, he found out that these guys were really good at it, and indeed there was another market, and this market was an overseas market that ordinary people would not dare to think of.

To put it simply, although VCD and DVD players have been eliminated in China, very few families still use them.

But in foreign countries, especially in less developed countries, there is still a market for video players, and the sales of optical discs are not bad.

Low prices, combined with high-quality program content, have allowed these guys to make a lot of money in other overseas countries.

"Since they have access, let's authorize them!"

Gu Miao didn't take it seriously.

For a business like DVD, Gu Miao doesn't mind licensing it to third-party companies.

Anyway, by selling them to foreign audiences, they have helped Wanbao become famous. With fame, other peripheral derivatives can be sold easily, which is a win-win situation.

If you don't leave this matter to them and let Wanbao sell it all by yourself, it may not necessarily have very good results.

…

Blue Cat's Naughty Three Thousand Questions was broadcast exclusively on CCTV Children's. Because of the particularity of popular science animation, it received good publicity and promotion resources.

But then again.

Although he received good treatment, the ratings were still miserable, and he couldn't even beat the Nth round of reruns of "The Magic Soldier."

"Sir, times have changed!"

Gu Miao could only lament that children nowadays really don't like this set of preaching animations.

This was more than ten years ago, when the naughty blue cat became popular all over the country, attracting countless children to squat in front of the TV.

But now...

No one will watch it, no matter what, it is produced by Wanbao, and the production level is still online, so there will definitely be people watching it.

But there are definitely fewer children who like to watch this animation compared to the original version. After all, children have been exposed to countless animations, and their tastes have long since changed.

for example.

Many scenes that I thought were funny more than ten years ago would feel awkward today and have lost their original funny meaning.

Gu Miao also made many changes.

In the original "Three Thousand Questions of Naughty Blue Cat" animation, many funny plots have been adjusted accordingly for the current environment.

To put it bluntly, the Wanbao version is fresher and has a new era feel than the original version!

But it doesn’t do much…

Children really don't like this kind of didactic animation. They have too much choice and there are too many excellent animations on the market. There is no need to stick to "Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions".

But then again.

Although this result is very uncomfortable, Gu Miao had already thought of this scene before she decided to make "Three Thousand Questions of Naughty Blue Cat".

Anyway, he just wanted to realize his dream and didn't care so much about his grades.

Besides, the ratings of 43% are not bad at all.

It is a fact that it cannot beat popular animations, but the 43% viewership rating is not considered a failure, and it is more than enough to recover the production costs.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Miao's birthday arrived.

Gu Miao, who had just celebrated her 35th birthday with congratulations from relatives and friends, was soon admitted to the hospital with Keke.

Don't get me wrong, he is not sick.

But as the due date was approaching, he felt it was not convenient to take care of her at home, so he sent his wife to the hospital in advance to accompany her.

After staying in the hospital for half a month, just when Gu Miao was wondering whether the child in Keke's belly was the reincarnation of Nezha, his second child was finally born.

It’s a daughter!

Lao Gu hugged his granddaughter, with happiness written all over his face. In his words, our Lao Gu family's alternative naming method finally came in handy.

"Ah? Alternate naming method?"

Gu Miao was greatly surprised. He originally thought that naming according to the theory of the five elements' mutual generation was the limit that Lao Gu could come up with. He did not expect that there was an alternative naming method.

What's the backup plan?

"Water produces wood, so their generation has wood attributes, and Sen has been used by Xiao Sen."

Lao Gu clapped his fingers and said: "Then use the word "Duo" and split it into several trees. It is in line with our family's naming tradition."

Gu Miao: "..."

How else can it be explained this way?

Gu Duoduo?

It sounds okay, and it's not an obscure word that is difficult to pronounce. It seems that Lao Gu must have been thinking about it for a long time, probably since he learned that Keke was pregnant.

After discussing with his wife, Gu Miao and his wife unanimously decided to respect Lao Gu's opinion.

The opinions of the elderly are important.

Maybe this name doesn't have so many good meanings, nor does it have that much cultural heritage, but Lao Gu has been looking through the dictionary for so long and finally found the word he likes, so he has to give him face.

Ever since, Gu Miao's daughter's name was officially determined to be "Gu Duoduo".

Duo Duo was born just as the temperature in Jiangchuan began to cool down. Considering that the constant flow of people in the hospital was not conducive to Coco's recovery, after staying for a while, Gu Miao returned home with his wife and children.

Little Sensen had a little sister, which made him very happy, and he went to Little Little Bear every day to show off.

Under the influence of children's strange comparison mentality, Little Bear soon faced a problem. His son was pestering him for a sister. What should he do?

"Ha ha!"

After learning about Mr. Xiong's troubles, Gu Miao smiled and said: "Your son wants a sister so much, then you can satisfy him!"

"Go! Go! Go……"

Mr. Xiong, who came to congratulate Gu Miao, was so angry at these words that he left.

Judging from his expression before leaving, Gu Miao guessed that he was also moved, but he just didn't do any ideological work to communicate with his wife, so he didn't dare to mention it.

"Speaking of which, what's going on with Mr. Big Bear?" After watching Mr. Little Bear leave, Lao Gu couldn't help but ask, "I seem to have heard..."

"have no idea."

Gu Miao shook her head, thinking of the news she had learned, her expression became particularly solemn.
