Best wishes for animation production - #574 - Chapter 570 Void (2)
A review article about “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” in the “Asahi Shimbun” evening paper set off a wave of crusade against BPO in the AC circle.
As time goes by, this craze becomes more and more powerful.
Many people whom An Teng Zhenyu didn’t know at all jumped out as so many well-known figures spoke, and they were no longer limited to the AC circle. Producers of some TV shows also jumped out.
These people are the most dissatisfied with BPO. They usually dare to be angry but dare not speak out. Now when they see someone taking the lead in the charge, they also jump out.
The hot topics on Twitter are now Gu Xue and “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”, as well as the BPO incident that is an extension of these two topics, firmly occupying the top three.
No one thought that just an animation would cause such a big disturbance.
Inside BPO, we are already in a state of turmoil.
If it was a simple protest, they wouldn’t actually care at all.
But the current situation is very complicated. Those protesting are not ordinary people, nor the people in charge of a single program, nor the audience, but well-known figures in the large circle of ACG. In addition, the most important point is that Junichi Hamada has found out that Teng Jiuyi has a problem, BPO is in the wrong, and Junichi Hamada has a guilty conscience…
Things are so big now.
BPO is already in a difficult position.
But Gu Xue seemed to feel that the matter was not big enough.
The night I had a phone call with An Teng Zhenyu.
Gu Xue suddenly published a short comic.
Her current reputation can be said to be at its peak in the acg circle.
As soon as the comic was released, it was discovered.
But when the audience opened the comic with great interest, they found… Gu Xue’s comic this time was different from the past.
There are only about ten pages, and the stage of the story is just a conference room…
The protagonists of the comic are supervisor Gu Xue, YUKI studio head Yao Yui, YUKI studio employee Sato Ei, and…BPO director Teng Jiuyiyou.
[I do not deny that supervision is well-intentioned, and I do not intend to deny your previous achievements, but I need an explanation]
Gu Xue attached this tweet.
And below is the comic.
Click to see it.
Perfectly solves the problem of not watching for too long…
The comics are created with the support of Gu Xue.
has been widely disseminated.
What you say is unfounded? Okay, I’ll draw you a comic.
And this comic, to a certain extent, is more lethal than the video. After all, the video has no sound, so it can be interpreted no matter what.
But the comic, with Gu Xue’s superb drawing power, even gives the audience a feeling of twists and turns and ups and downs.
People who saw it immediately remembered the name Teng Jiuyiyou and felt disgusted…
Gu Xue can do this like no one else…
The industry insiders who stood by Gu Xue and spoke for Gu Xue were dumbfounded.
Not to mention Junichi Hamada of BPO.
BPO is really being lifted up now, and then lifted high…I can’t put it down even if I want to.
…
“What a smart girl. Seeing that people from the TV industry were involved, she just said, ‘I don’t deny that supervision is a good intention.’ She also drew cartoons and acted like I am just seeking justice and the TV industry has nothing to do with me. When I meet such a smart girl, BPO is going to be in trouble this time. Her butt is dirty, and I can’t even speak forcefully. The longer we delay, the more trouble we will have.”
Hashimoto Ai’s boudoir.
Her agent, Ms. Endo, looked at Gu Xue’s comics, shook her head and sighed.
Hashimoto Ai responded: “I just said she is very powerful.”
Ms. Endo glanced at her: “I know, you don’t need to repeat it, but letting her be the director is really… too outrageous. It is unreasonable and inappropriate for an animation supervisor to suddenly direct a movie. And the other party’s ability is also open to question. The animation is indeed great and famous, I know this, but it is two different things from the live-action movie.”
Hashimoto Ai clasped her fingers and explained in a low voice: “Actually, it’s not the same thing. The animations supervised by Gu Xue are all scripts written by herself. Moreover, I always feel that things like shot composition, composition, rhythm, etc. are all different in animated movies. It is universal, and Gu Xue’s works are top-notch in these aspects.”
“But it is animation after all.” Ms. Endo frowned, still not convinced.
“Sister Endo.”
Hashimoto Ai put down her hands, sighed, and said softly: “After Director Jiro Nakamori terminated the contract, he publicly accused me of being unprofessional. The film project cannot be delayed any longer. The longer this is delayed, the worse it will be. Many big directors now are unwilling to do so.” Even if there are those who are willing to take over the director’s job, most of them have jobs now. Sister Endo, haven’t you been asking around during this period? You should know what the situation is like. And those unknown directors may not be able to support it. The most important thing about the filming of the movie is that they are not famous. My so-called ‘screen debut’ is already a hot potato.”
“Sister Endo… I know I was wrong this time, and I’m sorry. But the film project cannot be delayed. Instead of waiting passively, it is better to find a way to break the situation. This is my method. The flourishing animation supervisor Gu Xue accepts the director’s job, and not only can Bringing the movie project to life immediately may bring unexpected surprises…”
“…”
Hear Hashimoto Ai’s words.
Ms. Endo frowned and considered it carefully.
After a long time.
Ms. Endo sighed.
The popularity of idols is sometimes a double-edged sword. The longer the film project is delayed, the more troublesome it becomes.
no solution anymore.
Ms. Endo was silent for a while, and finally asked: “Then what do you want to do? Have you called that Gu Xue supervisor? Didn’t the other party agree?”
“I plan to go to YUKI Studio to find her.”
Hashimoto Ai pursed her lips: “The more times I go, the more I won’t believe that I can’t convince her… But before that, I hope that Sister Endo will contact the director, and I will give her a gift first.”
…
Gu Xue’s cartoons were like adding gasoline to the center of the incident, instantly detonating public opinion.
There are more and more people accusing and questioning BPO’s impartiality in this incident.
BPO is a bit messy.
At this juncture, the famous idol Hashimoto Ai’s support for Gu Xue and the recommendation of “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”, coupled with the advice of a director of Hashimoto Ai’s agency, became the last thing that broke the camel’s back. straw.
It was past eleven o’clock that day.
At YUKI Studio, Gu Xue received a call from BPO Chairman Junichi Hamada.
“Supervisor Gu Xue, we will punish Director Teng Jiuyiyou and announce the punishment results to the public. Can you please remove the comic and explain it?”
As soon as the call was connected, Hamada Junichi made such a request.
And Gu Xue responded directly.
“Punishment? Just punish and then make an announcement? Withdraw the manga? Mr. Hamada, wake up, the most important thing you should do now is not to maintain the so-called credibility like this. The most important thing you should do now is to announce all the truth of the matter. All the details and what happened, then fire Teng Jiu, admit his mistakes, and apologize to the public and me.”
“Impossible! This is too… BPO will lose face!”
“Impossible must be possible! Losing face? You already are! Can arrogance and avoidance solve the problem? Can this really solve the problem? It solves the problem! Of course, Mr. Junichi Hamada, you have to really If you think this is okay, then you reject me and I will continue to let things ferment. I know what you are thinking. Do you want the matter to go away? Do you want to lift it up gently and put it down? Let the public forget? I tell you, don’t even think about it!”
Gu Xue’s words were serious.
And heard Gu Xue’s words.
Hamada Junichi was silent for a long time before he asked bitterly:
“Are you really going to do this…Supervisor Gu Xue.”
Gu Xue replied: “Yes!”
Hamada Junichi was silent for a full two minutes this time before he said hoarsely: “…I understand.”
…
It was just past midnight on the third day of the broadcast of the final episode of “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”.
BPO made an announcement on its official website.
It contains the punishment for Kazutomo Tengku, an apology to the public, and an explanation for the “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” incident… and an apology.
It is true that Teng Jiuyi’s friend threatened Gu Xue to supervise.
The review of “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” is invalidated.
There is an internal problem.
BPO is sorry about this, very sorry.
The matter has come to an end.
In the end, it was Gu Xue who won.
As soon as this news came out.
There was an uproar.
