Chapter 366: The Show
"Pokemon" was a great success in trial play, which can be confirmed from the Hexizhi Home Forum.
Just a few days after the trial, various news on the forum have been circulating, and various photos and screenshots can also be seen in the posts. Some of the thoughts and spoilers posted by the trial players have been praised as hot posts by enthusiastic comments.
At the same time, new people also came to the comic island. Each trial shop opened from morning to night. The high-intensity trial even broke the two handheld machines. The store owner was scared to death, but after the technicians of Phoenix Company confirmed that there was no replacement bag, they did not make things difficult for the stores, but instead provided two new handheld machines again.
Now all the shops were relieved. Some shops were jealous of the customers who were trying out "Pokemon" and the trial also applied to Phoenix. A few days later, the trial of "Pokemon" doubled, and the pressure of the trial became smaller, which attracted a few tourists who liked to play games to stay.
On March 24th, Manga Island ushered in the largest crowd since its opening. That night, there was a joint performance between Xia Chuan Shi and Long Xue. An hour before the performance began, the audience walked into the venue one after another. The high tickets did not stop their enthusiasm. The entire venue became jammed before it was about to start, and even the aisle was full of people.
"I didn't expect Zhen and Long Xue to be so popular!"
Meng Huo was surprised to see the situation in the venue in the backstage. Xia Chuan Zhen and Long Xue were very popular. They often performed on the stage. The speed and quality of gathering popularity seemed to be better than that of cartoonists.
"By the way, where is Shen Jie?" The performance was about to begin, but Meng Huo did not see Shen Jie's shadow. Some of the audience here came here because they were curious about her. Shen Jie must not be absent tonight.
"She will appear halfway through." Alice, who was standing next to Meng Huo, replied: "Shen Jie is also one of the highlights today. It will be of no effect when she comes out too early."
Meng Huo nodded. Alice is responsible for the voice actors. As long as Shen Jie is willing to appear, it doesn't matter.
"By the way, Meng Huo, I heard you want to hand over "Detective Conan" to Sakura Company for production?" Alice asked suddenly.
"Your news is fast!" Meng Huo was a little surprised. He had just made the decision, but unexpectedly Alice found out.
"This matter is very important!" Alice shook her head and said solemnly: "What should we do if the new company we acquired after "Detective Conan" is handed over to Sakura Company?"
"What can I do?" Meng Huo laughed and said, "I'm going to prepare another new animation."
Alice was stunned. It was a new animation. She was not worried about the content. Meng Huo always had endless ideas. Even if he had no ideas, there were many waiting for adaptation in his previous works, but the bigger question was: "Are we enough money?"
Phoenix Company had no money before the carnival. In order to reduce pressure, it even opened reservations on the forum in advance, requiring readers to pay. Although the carnival has been held very successfully so far. The average consumption of tourists coming here is also good, but these incomes only fill the gap. It only maintains the facilities and shops of Manga Island.
Where do they have the money to do new animations?
When it comes to money, Meng Huo's head is also big. The problems he encountered after he started taking over the job at Phoenix Company were all about money. He was thinking about money every day, which sometimes made him very irritable.
"It's really not possible to have no money..." Meng Huo sighed in his heart, but replied: "After the carnival is over, we will start to produce animations immediately, and we will hold on for a while. I will release the official version of "Pokemon" as soon as possible. If it is completed next month, there will be no worries about the follow-up funds for the animation."
He pinned his hopes on Pokemon.
"The income of Pokemon should be enough." Alice also noticed the game trial situation in the past few days, so she did not doubt whether Pokemon could support the production funds for the two new animations after the release of the release: "But even if it is released next month, the funds will not be able to catch up, right?"
The funds of enterprises are recovering very slowly. The funding speed of some physical industries can even be calculated annually. Phoenix Company is relatively fast, but even if the game is released, it will be difficult to receive money in less than a few months.
"No problem, I can catch up." Meng Huo shook his head and explained: "Longquan Company has been in contact with me these two days. They want to get the right to sell "Pokemon" and are willing to pay part of the money first. I agree."
Longquan Company has been paying attention to Phoenix's new game. After the trial version of "Pokemon", Longquan received news faster than the media. The next day, Li Longshan sent someone to try it out and then expressed his intention to continue to cooperate. The two companies had previously had a successful cooperation, and Meng Huo happily agreed.
The sale of "Pokemon" is handed over to others, saving time and effort, which is great.
Alice was relieved, too.
"The performance has begun, I'll leave it to you here, I'll go to see it on the spot."
Meng Huo found that the stage performance had begun, so he put on his glasses and dressed up and walked out of the backstage. Alice was responsible for the performance coordination. He wanted to be an ordinary audience and enjoy the evening.
The lights in the venue except the stage have dimmed, and the audience's vision is very narrow. Meng Huo's disguise is not outstanding, but he will not be recognized in such a narrow vision environment. He sat in the front row, with some employees and family positions, Li Qin and Yoshida Keiko and others had already sat down.
"Are you here in Tomato?"
Meng Huo also saw several familiar cartoonists sitting behind.
"We are here to help you cover up Teacher He Xi!" Tomato joked, then handed Meng Huo a bottle of water and told her real reason: "I am also a fan of Gundam. It is rare that Gundam singers gather together, how could it be missed... By the way, Teacher He Xi, how would that girl Shen Jie appear?"
"I want to ask too." Li Qin asked, "Will something happen?"
"No, Alice is very professional, please don't worry, mom!" Meng Huo comforted Li Qin, then took a sip of water, and said, "As for how she appears, I'm very clear about it."
The stage arrangements were prepared by Alice. Meng Huo did not know what form Shen Jie would appear, but the form was not important. What was important was that she had to hide her appearance. This performance could actually be regarded as personal publicity from Phoenix Company. If it was successfully caused by the topic, Shen Jie's debut after graduating from high school would be even smoother.
Chapter completed!
