From White Box To Supervision

Chapter 373: Invest Or Not

700 million yen, converted into RMB is about more than 50 million yuan, which is a lot for ordinary people, but in the animation production of the theater version, it is not too expensive. The most expensive in the market is usually gibbons. Each of the powerful animated films is quite amazing. The most expensive one in history is “The Story of Kaguya Princess” supervised by Isao Takahata. It’s outrageous, and the production is even more terrifying as high as 500,000 ‘original paintings’. Note that this is the original painting, and no other 500,000 are included.

It can be described as how expensive it is.

Some people on the Internet laughed and said that Supervisor Takahata took away all the money that Hayao Miyazaki had earned over the years. , because the investment is too large, and even the return of capital is quite difficult.

However, as artistry, it is the pinnacle of Asian animation, and its commerciality is a bit worse.

Ordinary theatrical animations can refer to the animations made by Makoto Shinkai before. The speed of five centimeters per second is less than 30 million yen, and the Garden of Words is less than 60 million yen. His cost is very rare, ordinary TV animations cost roughly 10 million yen per episode, which is a small calculation cost.

When Zhang Beichuan received the call, he happened to be in the sunny studio, and immediately invited him in excitedly. At the same time, there was a man who looked very old beside Makoto Shinkai.

“This is my friend at the game company, Michihara Guanghui.”

“Hello, Beichuan-kun.” Daoyuan Guanghui laughed and said, “It’s the first time we met, I’m Daoyuan Guanghui, hello.”

“Hello, Daoyuan-kun.”

Daoyuan Guanghui just came to lie down with Makoto Shinkai, but he had nothing to do.

“He looks old, but he is not very old.” After a brief introduction, Makoto Shinkai briefly introduced his purpose.

“Investment?” Zhang Beichuan was very interested.

“Actually, part of the investment has been found. Among them, Toei is also willing to invest, but to be honest, the conditions are a bit harsh, as you know.” Xin Haicheng did not elaborate, but Zhang Beichuan also roughly guessed one point. At the time, he was also considering his current financial situation. Qingtian Studio currently has a lot of funds, because after removing the necessary funds for the operation of some studios, there is still a lot left, and the giants still earn a lot of money. The investment of the committee does not need to be paid by itself, but it will cost a lot of money. After all, it is the sole responsibility of Qingtian Studio, but the disc will be released after a while.

As for the theatrical version of “Madoka”, which was invested by Musashino, it is worth mentioning that the production cost of Madoka is about 600 million yen. One of the reasons is that because of the fame of the TV version, the publicity cost can be greatly reduced. , the production aspect is not particularly large.

“How much do you need.”

“It’s probably about 500 million yen.” Xin Haicheng said a little embarrassedly, probably because of this incident, he visited Zhang Beichuan. He felt that as a good friend, things like himself would make him embarrassed, but he couldn’t do anything about it. , if not, he intends to agree to those requirements of the investors.

Later, he took out a plan and submitted it to Zhang Beichuan.

“This is the animation I plan to make. It is expected to be completed in two years.”

This is a very thick plan. It can be seen that it is very attentive. In it, various things to be explained are marked in detail.

“”Your Name” is tentative, the plot: science fiction, love, estimated production time: two years (tentative).”

……

It took Zhang Beichuan a while to read it quickly, and he pondered a little: “I need time to think about it, I can’t promise you now, um, it’s not a rejection, I really need to think carefully.”

Xin Haicheng nodded: “I understand.”

500 million yen, this is not a small amount, not everyone can come up with it.

Moreover, the relationship between Zhang Beichuan and Xin Haicheng is not an ordinary job, but a very good friend relationship. Therefore, Zhang Beichuan can ask the actual situation of this project without any scruples.

In the evening, Zhang Beichuan thought carefully about the assets of Qingtian Studio. This money is not impossible to come out, but it will definitely be hurting. Don’t think that 500 million yen is very little. This money has been established for two years. The Sunny Sky Studio is already very powerful, and the production cost of more than 300 million yen of Huayu has not returned to the original cost, although it has just been launched.

He discussed it with Gong Senkui. They had different opinions on this matter. Gong Senkui did not agree with taking this much money out, even if it was an investment, because failure would definitely make the two years of hard work completely in vain. , Zhang Beichuan is optimistic and thinks that he can give it a try. He also believes in Xin Haicheng’s strength. The two of them are simply discussing.

Zhang Beichuan is not sentimental. After reading the whole project, he knows the general plot. Yesterday, Xin Haicheng also talked about the idea of the adaptation. Although these things cannot determine whether they will be successful after they come out, they at least have a general impression.

This is a good script!

This is Zhang Beichuan’s first impression. He knows Xin Haicheng’s strength, but it lacks a good script. This is his chance! I feel the need to help him.

Miyamori Aoi was also willing to help, but it was too risky to take out all the funds, and it was always necessary to keep the cost of running the studio. Finally, after discussion, Zhang Beichuan chose a compromise method, that is, to spend 400 million days Yuan (converted into RMB 20 million investment), as for the rest, Zhang Beichuan can introduce other people to participate in the committee, so that it can be solved perfectly. Zhang Beichuan’s own network is also quite broad, and there is no one who is willing to invest.

The next day, Makoto Shinkai, who learned the news, was naturally indispensable.

Fortunately, ~www.readwn.com~ does not need to take out all the production costs for the time being. You can take it over time. Makoto Shinkai also needs preliminary planning work, which is not something that happens overnight.

……

With the passage of time, the second episode of “Monster Story” was launched as scheduled.

Among many people, this animation is slightly polarized, but it has to be said that the majority still like it. This style is simply addicting. As long as you successfully survive the first episode, you will find that the inexplicable with a sense.

. The first episode tells that Araragi took Zhanbahara to find Shinobuya for help, and Shinobu understood the situation and told him Zhanbahara was weightless because she encountered a heavy crab, and promised her to exorcise her. So Shinobu also asked Zhanbahara to go home and take a bath, and find him later at night.

In the second episode, there is still a lot of complaints to advance the plot. Zhanbahara brings Araragi calendar to his home. It is not an imaginary mansion. It can be said to be a family with four walls. Religion, donating family property, and full benefits after bathing in the early stage.

“As expected of the student of Superintendent Kinoshita, it is full of temptation.”

“No, I rushed.”

Araragi Li and Zhanyuan discussed issues such as virginity and verbal violence. Watching this plot has nothing to do with the main line, but the interesting lens expression makes people watch it with gusto.

After Sangahara and Araragi returned to the dilapidated school building, Oshino in priestly clothes was waiting.
