Although "My Journey to the West" has received rave reviews from PV, Sun Wu did not relax. On the contrary, he became even busier.

Because a cartoon is not only made of the cartoon itself, but also includes film and television post-production and advertising.

Usually, the public will joke that TV series or movies are interspersed in advertisements, but in fact, advertisements are interspersed in cartoons.

As for whether it is a hard-core advertising or a soft-text advertising, it depends on whether the investor is short of money.

Is Dasheng Entertainment short of money?

Of course there is no shortage.

So during the preparation stage of the animation project "My Journey to the West", Wang Tieniu did not ask his grandfather to seek a sponsor.

Even if someone came to the door to advertise, he politely refused.

It’s not because Dasheng Entertainment is not short of money, so it’s domineering to say “no” to the advertisement.

That's not the case.

Instead, Sun Wu insisted that the advertisements were not too many, and he did not want the advertisements to affect the audience's visual experience.

At the same time, he had confidence in himself and that his company could produce an excellent animation, so he chose to wait for the price.

The facts later proved that his decision was not wrong.

"My Journey to the West" was uploaded to B station for 24 hours, and its total playback volume exceeded 5 million, and it also became a hot search on Weibo.

Chinese comics have achieved some success in 3D animation, but no excellent 2D animation has been born. Now those who love animation finally see hope.

First, because "My Journey to the West" itself is a very excellent work.

Second, this pv short film tells them that this cartoon will be a big production.

Chinese people always have a special feeling for domestic products, and the same is true for domestic animation.

Sun Wu does not need to spend money to buy the navy army, and many people spontaneously promote the animation of "My Journey to the West".

At the same time, its novels and comic sales also ushered in a small explosion after the release of this short film.

In addition to this direct feedback on the original work, with this pioneering PV, Wang Tieniu has become more confident in asking sponsors and video websites for price.

Unlike Japan, animation companies can recover their health by selling CDs, while Dasheng Entertainment only counts on advertising fees and buyout playback rights fees to recover their money.

Wang Tieniu can take certain attention in advertising, but buying out the broadcasting rights is of great importance, so he still has to discuss with Sun Wu.

"Monkey, B station, Penguin Video, and Kiwi Video all want to get the exclusive broadcast rights of "My Journey to the West". We can also sign a bet deal with them at a fixed price."

"Who is the highest bid?" Sun Wu asked.

"B website, the quote I gave me is 30 million."

Hearing this answer, Sun Wu frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Why is it so low?"

Although 30 million is a considerable amount of money, this price obviously greatly underestimates the value of the animation "My Journey to the West".

You should know that the average price of Japanese cartoons introduced by Bilibili is 15 million yuan, and the prices of animations like "re Zero" are basically 30 million yuan.

As a Chinese comic, the purchase cost is even higher than that of Japanese comics, which is just like the price of domestic players in LPL is higher than that of Han Yuan.

Besides, "My Journey to the West" itself is so famous, the price of 30 million is like sending beggars.

"The quotes for Penguin Video and Kiwi Video are similar. They want us to sign a bet with them more than buying out at a bargain price, and they think this is a lower risk."

"Isn't there a pv animation that was blown up before, but the first episode was blown up, but the third episode was blown up? They were scared of being cheated, so they naturally refused to be suckers again."

"It is not realistic to just rely on a 93-second PV to make people pay for it, and the sponsors also want to sign a bet contract with us."

"In a word, our animation is popular, they are willing to pay more, and if they don't, they will pay less."

Let me explain here that there are many types of betting contracts, and there are very few bets like winner-takes-all.

Many companies sign betting contracts more for insurance and guaranteed capital.

After listening to his friend's explanation, Sun Wu smiled and shook his head, and sighed: "It seems that they still don't believe me!"

"To be honest, I didn't have much confidence in you at the beginning, and it was understandable that they thought so." Wang Tieniu said with a smile.

"Then I will make them look at each other with admiration, and then I cried and said, why didn't I sign a buyout at the beginning?" Sun Wu's voice became louder.

Looking at the confidence on Good Luck's face, Wang Tieniu gave him a thumbs up: "Domsy sideways, then I'll sign a bet contract with them."

"Um."

After Wang Tieniu left, Sun Wu found Gong Xiaokui and discussed with her the animation dubbing of "My Journey to the West".

"I'm going to invite Japanese to produce music and sound effects, but the voice actors are still calling them Chinese."

Gong Xiaokui could understand the first half of Sun Wu's sentence, but some did not understand the second half of his sentence. She thought that he thought Japanese voice actors were more expensive than domestic voice actors, so she whispered:

"In fact, Japanese voice actors are cheaper. The performance fee for a well-known voice actor like Kana Hanazawa and Rie Tomimiya is only tens of thousands of yen per episode. If you hire a well-known domestic voice actor, the price will be at least doubled."

Seeing Sun Wu nodding slightly, she continued: "And compared to Mandarin, domestic second-dimensional otakus actually has a higher acceptance of Japanese, otherwise those domestic cute games would not spend money to invite Japanese voice actors to dub them."

Gong Xiaokui's words made sense, but she forgot the most important point, so Sun Wu ordered it for her.

"Sister Aoi, if the voice actor hires a Japanese voice actor, do you think our animation is still considered a Chinese animation?"

Hearing Sun Wu's words, Gong Xiaokui immediately understood what he thought, and nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact them now."

After saying that, she turned around and prepared to leave, but was stopped by Sun Wu.

"Don't worry, I'll give you a list tomorrow, and you can communicate according to the name on the list."

"good."

Although Gong Xiaokui was a little confused, she nodded and agreed.

After nearly two months of cooperation, she knew that the person in front of her would not be aimless. Since she said that, it was naturally his reason.

And this is true. The dubbing of an animation is very important, and Sun Wu plans to finalize it one by one by one.

So when he returned home, he became an otaku for a long time, found all the Chinese comics in recent years, put on his headphones, held a pen and a notebook in his hand, and started watching one by one.

In Sun Wu's mind, the characters in "My Journey to the West" are all living people.

They have joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, as well as laughing and crying.

Remember their voice lines. All he has to do now is to find similar voice lines. Every time he finds one, he will record it in his notebook with a pen.

"Sha is gold, and the literature is empty."

"Tang Sen, Teacher Ma Wenyuan."

......

However, as time passed by, Sun Wu's mood became heavier because the effect was not ideal.

Not only did he not find any voice actors suitable for male and female protagonists among these voice actors, but he had very few supporting roles.

Bai Jingjing saw her husband take off his headphones, leaning back on the chair and rubbing his temples. She took the notebook from his hand and took a look, and whispered: "Don't put the requirements too high, use them if they can."

"Actually, I have tried my best to reduce the requirements." Sun Wu sighed.

After saying that, he put on his headphones again and continued to look for a needle in a haystack.

Bai Jingjing reached out and took off the headphones that her husband had just put on, and said angrily: "Those are the only domestic anime voice actors. No matter how you look for them, it will be useless."

Seeing her husband turn his head to look at her, she said again: "You really want to be perfect, why not expand the scope directly to the voice actors to ensure that they can meet your requirements."

Bai Jingjing's words are the truth. Although there are not many domestic anime voice actors, there are many dubbing masters.

Hearing his wife's proposal, Sun Wu immediately cleared the clouds and mists and saw the light of the sky. After picking her up for a few rounds, he immediately transferred the battlefield from animation to film and television dramas, and even "League of Legends".

After a night of hard work, Sun Wu finally found all the voice actors of "My Journey to the West".

Looking at the list in his hand, he called Tao Lin, vice president of Alibaba Entertainment.

"Sister Tao, I want to ask you for a favor."

After hearing Sun Wu's request, Tao Lin was stunned for a moment, and then agreed readily the next second.

If the main characters of the animation and TV series can be played by the same voice actor, it will definitely greatly improve the linkage between the two fan groups, which is exactly what she wants to see.

Therefore, in addition to helping find voice actors, Tao Lin also took the initiative to express his willingness to lend Alibaba Entertainment's recording studio to Sun Wuyong in Binhai.

"Thank you Sister Tao."

"You don't have to be so polite. I also hope that the animation of "My Journey to the West" can be made better."

After hanging up the phone, Sun Wu found Gong Xiaokui and handed her another list in his hand. "Just call these two to dub Sha Wujin and Tang Sen."

"Where are other characters?" Gong Xiaokui asked in confusion.

"Here, I have asked Alibaba Entertainment to help communicate." Sun Wu shook the notebook in his hand with a proud look.

Gong Xiaokui took the notebook and took a look, then returned it to Sun Wu with an expressionless face.

Her fragile heart was hurt.

I was still thinking about choosing in the circle, but this guy directly suffered a dimensionality reduction blow.
