Chapter 78 Animated Characters

 The tenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

While Gu Miao was busy packing her things and moving into a brand new villa, Neon TBS quietly broadcast the 10th episode of the anime "Sailor Moon".

The title of this episode is - "The Cursed Bus! Enter Sailor Mars"

As can be seen from the title, this episode will feature a brand new "Sailor Soldier" character. And she is Sailor Moon, Sailor Mars, and Rei Hino, who symbolize love and passion!

Counting Sailor Mercury and Mizuno Ami who appeared in the first two episodes, the number of Sailor Moons who have appeared has come to three.

So here comes the question...

How many people are there in Sailor Moon?

Gu Miao wasn't sure about this question, because in the setting of "Sailor Moon", there was no limit to the number of "Sailor Senshi".

In other words.

As long as the production team is willing, they can create a brand new "Sailor Senshi" at any time based on the settings.

Have you finished naming the solar system?

Aren't there other galaxies? There are so many galaxies on the "star map" of the universe, where are they?

Of course, among the numerous "Sailor Senshi", the ones from the "Solar System" that are actually the most recognized by the audience and the most popular are them.

To be precise, there are only a few people including Sailor Moon, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Venus and Sailor Jupiter.

To put it harshly...

Everyone is a shock wave, and "Sailor Senshi" are all Usagi's family of three in C!

Okay, this is a joke.

Not to mention others, the trio of beautiful girl origins, namely Usagi Tsukino, Ami Mizuno and Rei Hieno, are quite popular.

Especially Huono Rei.

Gu Miao simply fell in love with this Sailor Senshi who had a beautiful appearance, aloof personality, and a vague sense of distance from other beautiful girls.

"But……"

"Didn't you say that you will always like Tsukino Usagi?" Ma Kui said with a strange expression.

"impossible!"

Gu Miao reprimanded with a straight face: "How could I say such a thing? Only the ground guard is blind to like such a gluttonous head!"

"Okay, okay."

Ma Kui said helplessly: "It doesn't matter if you fall in love with someone else, but we have to find a way to vote for TBS's annual animation character, right?"

The number of votes was a bit miserable!

Two days ago, Neon TBS held its annual "Most Popular" animated character voting event. All animations broadcast from January to December last year were on the list, and "Sailor Moon" was no exception.

Although, this is just a "fake name".

But this false name is still quite deceiving to “non-neon viewers”.

Gu Miao is planning to introduce "Sailor Moon" into the country. If he can help "Tsukino Usagi" get the first place in this popularity vote, it will be considered a "gimmick" in publicity and promotion.

That's what he thought.

However, the actual implementation has encountered many difficulties. Although the ratings of "Sailor Moon" are quite high, it is after all a "new show at the end of the year" and has only aired about 10 episodes.

How does this compare?

The other characters on the list are basically "completed" animations, and their popularity is solid. On the other hand, Tsukino Usagi has only become popular for a short time, and has not accumulated enough popularity.

If in a few months, when "Sailor Moon" reaches about episode 20-30, the character's image will be deeply rooted in people's hearts, and the mere popularity vote will definitely be easy to get.

But not now...

"The first place on the list is the protagonist of the animation "The Detective", and the second place is the heroine of "The Siberian Potato King"."

Ma Kui curled his lips and said: "The votes for these two characters exceeded 10,000 in just two days, and they are very popular. Tsukino Usagi only got more than 3,000 votes, so there is a big gap."

It is almost impossible to make a comeback.

It is already amazing that an animation aired in December is one-third as popular as "The Detective" aired at the beginning of the year.

There is almost no hope for first place, but the top three can be fought for.

"Oh, by the way..."

Ma Kui seemed to have missed something. He patted his forehead and added: "The number of votes for Pleasant Goat is not low. It seems to be more than 2,000 votes."

What kind of stinky fish and rotten shrimp?

Gu Miao frowned and said, "Is the gap so big? How many days are left until the voting deadline?"

"Five days!"

"Chasing eight thousand votes in five days is indeed a bit difficult." Gu Miao mused, "But it's not impossible to do something shady!"

Shady story?!

Ma Kui's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "Is this... is this okay? Won't it be exposed and get infamy?"

"what are you thinking?"

Gu Miao explained: "The shady thing I'm talking about is not asking TBS to swipe votes. I'm asking for help outside the venue, so that neutral viewers who didn't vote can vote for Tsukino Usagi!"

The so-called off-site help.

In fact, it is to use "favor fees" to seduce those viewers who are not firm enough in their stance. For example, how about voting "with your hands"?

It really doesn't work...

How about taking some autographed photos of animation director Gu Shuishui's "three-point" swimsuit?

"It seems okay."

Ma Kui scratched his head and asked: "But there are more than 8,000 votes. How many figures should we draw?"

"First take 10 copies and see the effect."

Gu Miao made a final decision: "If the number of votes still does not exceed the number, then increase the number to 20 and 30 figures!"

He wants to settle this false reputation!

How much are a few dozen figures worth? As long as you can win the title of "Most Popular Animated Character of the Year", you will save more than this amount in publicity and distribution expenses.

No matter how you calculate it, it’s a good deal.

If……

If the neon audience doesn't give in to five buckets of rice and even "voting for a figure" doesn't work, then Gu Miao also has an alternative.

“What alternative?”

Ma Kui said with confusion on his face: "Could it be that we hired Vietnamese killers to blow up the bathrooms of other animation companies and force them to withdraw from the competition?"

"No no no."

Gu Miao chuckled and said, "My alternative is to have the voice actor record a voice and then put on the skin of the character."

Mina-san!

Please use your strength...oh no, vote for the cute and charming bunny! Arigado, Mua!

He didn't believe it.

Under such an offensive, how could those boys and girls resist voting for Xiaotu?

Impossible!

There are only 8,000 votes. At first glance, the gap seems huge, but this is because the vast majority of the audience did not participate.

If we can call on the majority of the audience to participate in voting, it is not difficult to cast 80,000 votes in one night, let alone 8,000. After all, the ratings of "Sailor Moon" have now exceeded 10%.

This is still neon...

If the main battlefield is in China, especially on Weibo, then under Gu Miao's operation, there will be no suspense about the championship, and the champagne will be opened in advance.

certainly.

Even if Gu Miao makes arrangements, the specific effect depends on the audience's choice. On Neon's side, there is a difference of 8,000 votes...
Chapter completed!
