Best wishes for animation production - #584 - Chapter 580 Sense of Identity (2)

April 3rd.

The day after the first sales of “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” were released.

When Gu Xue came to the downstairs of the building where YUKI studio is located.

I happened to bump into Hashimoto Ai who was coming to the studio again.

“How come you work harder than me, the nominal boss, when you come to the studio? Have you pushed back on your work?”

Gu Xue looked at the fully armed Hashimoto Ai, a little funny.

Hashimoto Ai pulled the mask on the bridge of her nose and explained: “Didn’t I attend an event two days ago? I also did an endorsement shoot yesterday. I haven’t had a concert recently, so I’m quite free…”

“So you came to us? I haven’t promised you to be the director yet, but you come to me every day. Didn’t Ms. Endo scold you?”

Hashimoto Ai said firmly: “No, I told her, I will always convince you…”

“Really determined.”

Gu Xue smiled softly and turned around and walked into the building, “Let’s go up. Don’t worry, I won’t delay you anymore. If you want to accept the director’s job, the result should be available today.”

Hashimoto Ai immediately caught up with Gu Xue like a little follower, and asked in surprise: “Really!?”

“Um.”

Gu Xue nodded and gave the answer.

The two took the elevator and arrived at the floor where YUKI’s studio is located.

Although Gu Xue did not say whether he would answer or not, and only said that the result would be given today, Hashimoto Ai was obviously optimistic about Gu Xue taking this job and was very excited along the way.

Gu Xue had something to deal with her.

When the two of them were almost at the door.

Gu Xue thought of something and suddenly stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Ai Hashimoto looked at Gu Xue and stopped, curious.

“Before you go in, I advise you to plug your ears.”

“ah?”

Gu Xue didn’t say much, just raised her hands, plugged her ears with her index fingers, and then walked into the studio.

Although Hashimoto Ai didn’t know what it was for, she did as she was told.

soon.

Hashimoto Ai knew why Gu Xue had her ears blocked.

“Supervision! Congratulations on the 510,000 sales!”

The entire studio was crowded at the door of the office.

The moment Gu Xue entered.

Everyone shouted together.

The sound was deafening.

It is estimated that the sound can be heard on both floors.

There were so many people yelling not far away, and the sudden burst of volume startled Hashimoto Ai, and she immediately reached out and grabbed Gu Xue.

This battle is comparable to her fanatical fans… but fanatic fans can only form a group with a few people, unlike now… there are hundreds of people in one studio.

Hashimoto Ai was startled, but Gu Xue was very calm. She waited patiently for the people in the studio to finish yelling, then put down her hands and said dissatisfied:

“It’s so noisy!”

The people in the studio looked at each other and then all laughed.

Including the seniors who are both big and small, they also smile like chrysanthemums…

The studio is filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Gu Xue looked at them and couldn’t help laughing: “Okay, don’t you get tired of doing this every time? Now even the neighbors upstairs and downstairs don’t come over to check on the situation when they hear any noises here. , anyway, if you search for news about YUKI Studio on the Internet, you will know what happened. People are no longer surprised, but you are still playing…”

“Not tired!” Sato Ei immediately raised his hand and jumped hard.

“Of course your ideas are not boring! Stand firm and jump around for me.”

But the next second, the jumping Sato Ei was hit back with a knife, and Gu Rou’s majestic voice came.

Sato Eiyi immediately gave up: “Oh… big, no, sister Gu Rou…”

Sato Ei, who was fearless, was as good as a golden retriever in front of Gu Rou.

Gu Xue looked over at her, shook her head, then looked at everyone, and continued: “However, although it is a bit random, the BD sales are indeed worth celebrating. Thank you everyone, this is not just me. The credit belongs to everyone…”

“Oh~” Everyone cheered together.

Gu Xue also smiled this time and raised her hand along with everyone else, and said “Oh.”

Even Hashimoto Ai was infected, and she raised her hand reluctantly and said oh…

The whole studio looks pretty silly.

Saying “Oh” also makes people feel silly.

But being in it, the atmosphere is really good.

After Hashimoto Ai finished, she looked around and finally stopped at Gu Xue’s back.

The atmosphere in YUKI studio is indeed different, very different.

It is different from all the studios and companies that Ai Hashimoto has known.

And all of this seems to be related to Gu Xue.

Gu Xue didn’t notice Hashimoto Ai’s gaze, and she said a few words of thanks.

The people surrounding the studio door dispersed, returned to their seats, and continued busy.

Everyone seemed happy.

“Gu Xue.” Hashimoto Ai couldn’t help shouting.

“Um?”

Gu Xue, who was about to go to Rua Sato Ei’s dog head, heard the sound and turned his head.

Hashimoto Ai curiously asked: “With a sales volume of 510,000…can I make a lot of money?”

“Well, without considering the premium, the current price of a BD volume is 400, and a total of 510,000 volumes have been sold. You can do the math yourself. In fact, even after deducting the cost and simply talking about the profit, this is a lot. Not to mention this It’s just the first volume, and there are five more volumes to be released. Although there is no such exaggerated blessing of the power of the king, the sales volume of the next five volumes should be very impressive.”

After Hashimoto Ai was silent for a moment, she whispered softly and said, “There are indeed many. No wonder Director Tengku Kazutomo of BPO wants to take risks and threaten you…”

Gu Xue glanced at everyone in the studio and said with a smile: “But you don’t want to ask about the profits, right? What you want to ask is why they are so happy, right?”

“ah?”

Hashimoto Ai was stunned for a moment, then she looked into Gu Xue’s clear eyes and nodded subconsciously: “Well…”

“Then I can tell you clearly that it has nothing to do with money.”

Gu Xue looked at the busy people in the studio: “After all, most of the money belongs to YUKI Studio. Well, in other words, it belongs to me, a capitalist.”

Gu Xue pointed at herself.

“Eh……”

“Although everyone in the studio will receive a very large amount of binding materials, in other words bonuses, and benefits, but these, compared with the estimated income of at least nine figures, It’s nothing. Of course, if the income is divided equally, it’s nothing…”

Hashimoto Ai’s eyes widened: “There is no way to share the profits equally. Don’t you want the studio to operate…”

“Just kidding.”

Gu Xue smiled: “However, even I, the owner of this studio, actually didn’t feel happy because of the money when I saw the BD sales of Madoka’s first volume. It’s not that I’m not interested in money. I can Interested…”

“It’s just that compared to money, what makes me happiest is the sense of recognition.”

“A sense of identity?”

“Um.”

Gu Xue withdrew her gaze from everyone in the busy studio, looked at Hashimoto Ai again, and said with a smile: “Good works are liked. The most intuitive expression of this is the sales of BD, and what kind of business cooperation will be in the future? , copyright licensing can also make money, and you can also feel the popularity of the work, but the most intuitive thing is BD sales.”

“Produce good work and the audience will support it.”

“We are happy about this.”
