Chapter Thirteen Someone Follows?

 There is a headhunting company in Jiangchuan.

After entrusting them with the task of expanding the production team, Gu Miao quickly recruited a group of experienced animation talents with high salaries.

Wolfsburg Studio stands up!

In the past, there were more than a dozen people with seven or eight guns, and the office space was a few private houses rented at low prices. The team was disorganized and as shabby as possible.

It's different now.

Director Gu not only brought in crooked tricks, but also dragged in Italian artillery. Everyone moved into a spacious and bright office building and used the top hardware facilities. Isn't it easy to conquer a safe county?

"Yo ho!"

"Xiao Gu, are you getting rich? Look at this office, it's bigger than mine... and there's a pot of Clivia? It's really decadent." Director Wang looked at Gu Miao's office and spat at it.

Gu Miao said nothing.

He finally understood that this stupid person would only act pretentious to people he didn't know well, but once he became familiar with you, he would immediately start acting strangely.

No wonder after so many years of working together, he didn’t even get to be the deputy director. The leaders of Jiangchuan TV Station really know how to recognize people.

This is a black sheep!

"You are now a senior leader of the TV station. If you are not in charge of the TV station, why are you here?" Gu Miao asked curiously.

"Of course I have something to do with you."

When talking about business, Director Wang instantly became serious and said with a slight hesitation: "The national ratings of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" have already exceeded 8."

"Ok, I know."

Gu Miao has also heard about this. After all, this rating not only beats all animations, TV series and second-rate variety shows of the same period, but is also a solid candidate for the annual ratings championship.

The reason why it is a candidate, rather than an early award, is that in the first half of the year there was an anti-war TV series that also broke 8.

"Snow Bear"!

This work is hailed as another classic anti-war TV series after "Bright Knife". After it was broadcast, the response was enthusiastic and the ratings were astonishing.

Although the ratings of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" are also very good, compared with this kind of TV series, it is still a bit less interesting.

But this is only temporary.

How many episodes does "Snow Bear" only have? The first part of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" has 530 episodes. If the ratings can't catch up now, it doesn't mean that they won't catch up in the future.

Director Wang thinks so too.

Both he and the station director believe that with the continued popularity of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", the subsequent ratings are very likely to break through the 10-point mark.

This is an amazing achievement.

TV dramas will have a hit movie every year, but what about animations? How many years has it been in the industry for an animation work to have a ratings of over 10 points?

It was precisely because of this thought that Director Wang appeared in Gu Miao's office to communicate with him about the production plan for the second part of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".

He also wants to continue investing.

Any normal person would have similar thoughts. After all, how could he give up so easily after he has tasted the sweetness?

Unfortunately, Gu Miao refused.

"Director Wang, from a personal perspective, I am very grateful for your trust at that time and for your great help."

"but……"

Interests are related and we will never give in.

Gu Miao is not an ungrateful person. He will always remember Director Wang's "support and support" in the past. If necessary in the future, he will definitely lend a hand.

Jiangchuan TV Station is a state-owned enterprise after all!

Since it is a public property, it must be done in a public manner and no one should take advantage of anyone else. No matter how good his relationship with Director Wang is in private, there is no way he will give in on this matter.

Director Wang knew this clearly.

The reason why the director sent him to talk about this matter was because he valued the friendship between him and Gu Miao and wanted to play the emotional card.

If Gu Miao doesn't accept this, then forget it.

Anyway, he is just the deputy director who gets a dead salary. Even if the matter is negotiated, he will not get a penny more. There is no need to make the two of them turn against each other over this matter.

"Okay, business cannot be done without righteousness."

Director Wang smiled and said: "But for the first-round broadcast rights of Pleasant Goat Part 2, you have to give Jiangchuan Children's Channel a discount!"

"no problem."

Gu Miao didn't mind at all.

Even if Director Wang doesn't mention this issue, he will know what to do when the time comes. Other TV stations will charge whatever they should, but Jiangchuan Children's Channel will break all the charges!

They are old friends after all.

After talking about business and making an appointment to have hot pot together on Saturday, Director Wang was about to stand up and leave when he suddenly remembered something and turned to Gu Miao and asked: "By the way, have you paid attention to the news from Zhonghai?"

"no, what happened?"

"Then you have to pay attention!"

Director Wang explained: "As far as I know, there is an animation company in China Overseas, and it seems to be making a work similar to the style of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf"."

Follow the trend?

After seeing off Director Wang, Gu Miao quickly found relevant information through the portable Internet.

"The Cat Princess and the Mouse Prince"

From the name to the content, this work is full of traces of poor imitation. It is not difficult to see that its producer is quite smart.

After seeing the popularity of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", I immediately realized that the story setting of "animals who are natural enemies falling in love and killing each other" definitely has the potential to become a hit, so I came up with the "Cat and Mouse" combination.

This is a classic among classics.

There is "Black Cat Sheriff" in China, and "Tom and Jerry" abroad. When it comes to classic "natural enemies" in animation, the cat and mouse combination definitely ranks first.

By the way!

The cat-and-mouse combination is not only very strong in "doubles", but also in "singles", they are ruthless characters that cannot be underestimated in the animation industry.

Garfield, Doraemon, Shukbeta, Mi Lao...forget it, I can't mention this, anyway, the cat and mouse combination is very strong.

The idea of ​​using a cat-and-mouse combination to fight against a "wolf-sheep" combination is at least worthy of praise.

but……

How is the actual performance?

Although this animation has not been broadcast yet, no one knows its production level, but Gu Miao guessed that it is probably another "Haiwa"-style tragedy.

This group of people just saw that "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" was poorly produced but became a hit across the country, and thought that it would be enough if they had the skills, but they never thought about a core issue.

Behind the simple pictures of Pleasant Goat, there are fantastic ideas and hilarious storylines one after another!

It can be said that the plot is the highlight.

There is a balance in this.

The plot is too in-depth and children cannot understand it; the plot is too shallow and children find it boring.

If you can't grasp the balance of the plot, no matter how exquisite the original painting is, how smooth the fighting is, or even how nice the music is, it's all in vain.

Gu Miao doesn't think "The Cat Princess and the Mouse Prince" can do this perfectly.

after all……
Chapter completed!
