Fans were dumbfounded.
That's it? That's it?
The Yunsu Theme Park next door, even the refurbishment projects and general plans, are neatly listed. The concept map in the preview is even more beautiful. It matches the entertainment facilities of the predecessor Paradise Theme Park itself. It's no exaggeration to say that Wang Zhan once made it, but what about Huaying?
Didn't Hogwarts Castle and the Witch's House Haunted House start to be announced more than half a year ago? You guys made a little noise to let us see!
Seeing that the Yunsu Group has started to publicize with great fanfare, Huaying's business fans couldn't sit still. They all gathered under the Weibo of the animation preview, and protested in the comment area:
"Will I really have a chance to see a real-life Hogwarts castle this year? [humble]"
"What about the theme park? Even if the various facilities are not fully completed, it's fine to send some photos of the scenes that have already been completed, or simply spoil one or two highlights of the gameplay. It's such a big company, can you Can't be more mature, don't always do self-closing research and development?"
"Cub, you can grow up."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. It looks good, but let’s take a look at the theme park, you can’t just watch so much investment go in vain, can you?”
This is a career fan who hates iron but cannot make steel.
Compared with the career fans who were ignited by Yunsu's actions and had already begun to worry that Huaying Theme Park would be overwhelmed by Yunsu Theme Park, animation fans seemed much simpler. After Huaying Animation released "Naruto" After the trailer of "One Piece", their attention immediately shifted away from Yunsu Theme Park and turned to the two upcoming feature-length animations.
"Ninja? Pirate?"
"Bluestar doesn't seem to have any anime about ninjas and pirates so far. Looking at the preview given by Huaying, it seems to be a long-lost anime about fighting young people? I don't know what kind of story it will be. The most recent routine animations are all Tired of watching, I hope Huaying's new theme can bring some surprises!"
"I'm tired of watching +1, looking forward to Huaying's new work!"
"It's so confusing. In fact, I quite like the current pace of Huaying. After all, the main business is animation, so I should focus on animation production. However, the Yunsu Group is really coming with a lot of menace, so Huaying is the only one. There is no movement at all, and I don't know what Xing Xing is thinking..."
It’s not just the hot discussion among netizens.
With the fanfare of the Yunsu Group and the indifference of Huaying Animation, the same doubts also occurred inside Huaying Animation.
Mu Xingxue was the first to come over.
In fact, as early as Yunsu Group announced the successful acquisition of Paradise Group, Mu Xingxue came over as soon as he received the news and analyzed with a slightly heavy expression: "Paradise was originally Blue Star's most famous theme park. Now With the capital investment of Yunsu, if our theme park opens with them at the end of the year, it will be difficult not to be affected."
It's not that Mu Xingxue has no confidence in his theme park.
To put it bluntly, there are only a few amusement facilities in Blue Star Theme Park. Amusement parks of the same size are very similar. In other words, in many cases, the profitability of the amusement park itself is different from that of the corresponding company. The amount of money invested is often directly proportional.
Such as Yunsu Theme Park and Huaying Theme Park.
Long before Yunsu Group acquired the Paradise Theme Park, the total cost was as high as 20 billion credit points. Yunsu Group spent a large amount of money to acquire the Paradise Theme Park, and the additional investment in the new theme park made the newly born The total cost of Yunsu theme park cars has reached 30 billion.
As for the cost of Huaying Theme Park, what has been invested so far is only 3 billion.
To put it bluntly-whether the Huaying theme park with a cost of 3 billion yuan is fun is still unknown. However, even if the Yunsu Theme Park, with a total cost of 30 billion, is not that fun, with the support of such a huge amount of money, the entertainment facilities are definitely not much different.
This is the same for tourists.
One side is a large-scale comprehensive theme park with an investment of up to 30 billion yuan, and the total cost of the other side is less than one-tenth of the former. Given the small difference in tickets between the two, I am afraid that a normal person can be in Make the wisest choice between the two.
"After all, the theme park is a typical continuous project, and the annual maintenance cost is a big expense. If Yunsu Group intends to use the theme park to target us, it may be a bit difficult for our theme park project to develop normally. Disaster."
Speaking of this, Mu Xingxue also felt helpless: "Yunsu Group's investment in theme parks is too high, and we can't compete with them at all."
"Isn't this just right?"
Mu Xiuxing said, his tone was half serious, half joking: "When we were surrounded and suppressed by Yunsu last time, didn't you still say that the price was too cheap? Now it's rare that Yunsu has spent a lot of money on the theme park. A full 30 billion, if this fails again, won’t Yunsu just have to pay the price with blood?”
30 billion versus 3 billion.
The difference between the two was so great that at this moment, Mu Xingxue almost instinctively thought that Mu Xingxing was joking, so he didn't think much about it and just said in a dumbfounded voice:
"It's already this time, and you're still kidding me?"
Shepherd star smiled.
He knew very well that in the face of such a huge gap, no matter what he said, Mu Xingxue would not believe it. Therefore, Mu Su Xing did not intend to correct the other party's statement, but acquiesced to Mu Xingxue's "joking" statement, and asked another question:
"What do you think is the difference between us and Yunsu, both of whom are theme parks?"
Mu Xingxue thought: "You mean...IP?"
Yes.
Needless to say, entertainment facilities, Yunsu's overall investment is placed there. I also know that most of their entertainment facilities are not much worse, and this is exactly what Huaying can't compare with. But in the same way, Huaying also has something that Yun Su can't compare with, it's hard to compare.
That is the top-level IPs that Huaying Animation has accumulated through these years of dedicated animation production.
As for the world-class big IP alone, there are currently two series of Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter. Their respective fans love these two series and their derivatives to the point of obsession. Mu Xingxue has no doubt that when the theme park opens, fans of these two series will buy tickets for the park without hesitation, no matter whether the entertainment facilities in the park are interesting or not, even if it is for the former residence of Sherlock Holmes and Hogwarts Castle.
"Yunsu has Yunsu's strengths, and we also have our own advantages."
Mu Xingxing said: "In my opinion, our theme park and Yunsu's theme park are actually two completely different types."
There is nothing wrong with Yunsu Group's various renovation plans for Paradise Theme Park, but this kind of renovation has always only stayed on the surface of the "theme park". From the beginning to the end, they focused on the theme park itself. There is no step beyond the confines of theme parks.
Painting shadows is not the case.
For Shepherd Star, what he wants to build is not only a theme park, but not just a theme park.
It is said that it is a theme park. It has entertainment facilities that are expected in ordinary amusement parks, and the Picture and Shadow Theme Park is no less. It's not just a theme park, but because in the heart of Xing Mu, this fragment called "Theme Park" is the last piece of the puzzle of "Blue Star Akihabara" in his heart.
Over the years, he has tried many things.
Animation, games, comics, toy peripherals, theme restaurants...
But that's not enough.
If comics and animations allow readers and viewers to experience different two-dimensional worlds, and games and figure peripherals are meant to maximize the benefits of the IP itself, then the Huaying Theme Park is created by Jimu Xiaxing as an animation producer. Ambition, combined with the feelings of ACG lovers, let the fantasy shine into the dream of reality.
It should have Sherlock Holmes, Hogwarts Castle.
It is also possible to add the Golden Merry and Miles Sunshine of the same model as the Straw Hat Pirates parked by the lake with the emergence of more shadow animations, or a mountain waterfall that is exactly the same as the Valley of the End in "Naruto".
It should have a witch's house theme haunted house, allowing visitors to experience the horror and excitement in the original game in reality. One Piece theme "Drifting Upside Down Mountain" can also be designed. Let tourists have the magical experience of crossing the Upside Down Mountain and entering the great route like the Straw Hat Pirates.
There are also Yukihira Restaurant, Ichiraku Ramen...
It should make every fan who loves those worlds feel that even for a moment—they really touched that world—the childish virtual world that has accompanied them for many years in the eyes of the world is real. .
It is a pilgrimage that every ACG fan longs for.
When comics, animations, games... when all of these are connected one by one, and turned into a reality that is visible to the naked eye and can be touched with hands in the theme park, for all fans, the chemical effect in it, It's not as simple as "1+1=2".
Because of this, for Huaying right now, it doesn't make any sense to fight Yunsu in publicity.
When the audience witnessed the break between Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke in the Valley of the End in "Naruto"; when the audience, together with the Straw Hat Pirates, bid farewell to the Golden Meri with tears in the fire of the capital of seven waters. As long as "Naruto" and "One Piece" enter everyone's field of vision, with the influence of these two top IPs, will there be no one to come to the theme park?
At the same time, inside the "Animation Online" magazine.
Shen Nian is also discussing this issue with his colleagues: "You said, did Huaying give up the theme park plan? Why hasn't there been any movement until now?"
"It's normal, 30 billion vs. 3 billion. Although Huaying will definitely continue to invest in the future, the gap is indeed too big. Both of them are near Christmas. If Huaying doesn't take the initiative to avoid it, then Even the investment of 3 billion yuan will be in vain, and it may not be possible to recover the cost in the future."
Avoid Cloud Speed?
Thinking of Huaying's usual style, Shen Nian shrugged his shoulders noncommittally for his colleagues' evaluations, but said: "Don't mention this, it's important, don't forget that "Naruto" and "One Piece" are going online today, we are I have to finish writing the comic review and send it to be printed tomorrow."
The conversation naturally shifted to Huaying's two new works.
"With such a cold subject, I'm afraid only Huaying dares to touch it."
"It's impossible to say. If you really want to say it, when did Blue Star's popular theme come out? Didn't Huaying take the lead and other companies follow suit? Let me tell you, when these two animations are released, Blue Star will definitely There are a lot more ninja and pirate themes."
Time passed quickly among everyone chatting, and soon it was eight o'clock in the evening.
"Naruto" started broadcasting.
Chapter 219
At eight o'clock in the evening, Huaying headquarters.
It was time to get off work, and employees from various departments in the office building were packing up and leaving one after another. However, the office hall where the "Naruto" production team was located was still as bright as day. Except for a few cartoonists, most of the people were wandering around. He walked around the workstation and didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave.
Shepherd star is clear.
Too.
Although everyone on the production team is full of confidence in this animation, the initial pace of "Naruto" is indeed a bit slow compared to the popular hot-blooded shounen comics on the market. The plot of the animation begins with the chunin exam. It’s really getting to the point. In addition, Naruto itself is a very long series. If the beginning is too difficult, even if you catch up later, it will be difficult for the audience lost in the past to come back.
Fang Lian suggested: "Idle time is also idle. How about we just watch the first episode of the new update in the company?"
This proposal was in line with everyone's wishes, but, considering that the immediate boss was still present, everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to Shepherd.
It's just turning on the computer and watching an animation. Naturally, the Shepherd Star will not refuse such a trivial matter, and now he just said: "Okay, just don't forget to turn off the computer before you leave later." At the end, I added a sentence Joke: "By the way, this doesn't count as overtime. Don't ask me for overtime pay later."
The crowd laughed and booed.
"It's too much, Director Mu, is it so real?"
"Forget overtime pay, just because we are so concerned about the company's projects, it's okay to give our project team a few bonuses."
This is just kidding.
Of course, the crowd didn't really mean to complain or ask for bonuses. Seeing that Shepherd Star had no intention of objecting, they immediately dispersed and returned to their respective computer desks. Fang Lian cheekily followed Shepherd Xing and slipped into the company's small movie theater. Once inside, he sat on the single sofa inside and let out a contented sigh:
"Sure enough, it's better to see the effect here."
The company spent a lot of money to build a small theater with the same effect as Blue Star's first-class theater. How can the viewing effect be bad?
Mu Suxing didn't let him know that he just wanted to stay in the movie theater, so he turned on the multimedia equipment in the movie theater and adjusted the page to the playback page of "Naruto", when he heard Fang Lian ask: "Yunsu Over there in the theme park, do you really have no plans?"
At the end, he spoke expectantly: "Let's not talk about Yunsu, when can we ourselves go there and have a look in advance? I have long wanted to see the real-life Hogwarts Castle."
Mu Ju Xingdian opened the first episode of "Naruto", which was refreshed, and sat back on the sofa. He calculated the time: "As for Hogwarts Castle, it will be open in September or October. If you want to go, just ask them for a pass then."
While the two were chatting, "Naruto" on the screen also officially started.
At the beginning of the animation, there is a scene where the nine-tailed demon fox destroys Konoha, and the fourth Hokage desperately seals it, and he also dies because of it. In order to avoid revealing too many clues in the later stage, there are not many plots here, and the simple narration will end here. Just considering the principle of being able to attract people with their faces, there is no reason to hide them, and Shepherd Xing gave it without hesitation. A big close-up of the Fourth Hokage.
Under the dark night, outside the seriously injured crowd.
The man stood tall and looked into the distance with a clarity and calmness that was almost frozen into ice. The moonlight elongated his figure, and the wind blew up the flame-trimmed robe with the words "Fourth Hokage" rattling. At this moment, against the half-brightness and half-shadow background, there was a kind of flame-like flame. A wonderful sight like jumping.
The two present here are both members of the "Naruto" project team. They are naturally very familiar with the shots they have handled, but the pre-production and the post-production are two different things. Looking at the feng shui on the screen The door never turned back, Fang Lian couldn't help sighing:
"One thing to say, I see it as a straight man, Namikaze Minato is definitely the most handsome man in this animation, bar none."
Mu Suxing originally wanted to say, could it be that the Uchiha family can't get into your eyes? However, considering Fang Lian's "straight men are restricted", he seriously recalled the tangled plot in "Naruto" which can be called "deep sadomasochistic love", and he felt that he couldn't refute it.
"It seems to be true."
"What does it seem like, do you dare to say that you didn't do it on purpose?" Fang Lian glanced at him: "In the original manga, the fourth generation of Hokage was never given a shot at the beginning, let alone a face like you. How dare you say You don’t have any strange bad tastes? Give the audience a handsome male god first, and then tell the male god that he died at the beginning, tsk tsk, dog thief, you really have it.”
Mu Suxing thought of the tons of blades in the middle and late stages of "Naruto", and his face was calm.
As the saying goes, if you have too much debt, you don't weigh yourself down. In fact, the opening death of Namikaze Minato does not appear to be cruel. For example, characters like Jiraiya and Uchiha Itachi, which the audience has spent a long time getting familiar with and establishing emotions, die, which is really painful and helpless, but because of the needs of the plot, there is no way to refute it, so I can only swallow it with tears. Lower blade.
While the two were chatting, the animation on the screen continued.
After a simple opening, as the theme song played, the copyright information of the work and the list of all members of the production team soon appeared on the screen. At the same time, the plot of the animation was also accompanied by the soundtrack. Slowly opened the prelude.
Like most long-form animations, the first episode of "Naruto" is also the opening of the story, as well as an introduction to the animation background and main characters.
Mischievous and mischievous, he was chased by other ninjas because of pranks, and his grades have been at the bottom for thousands of years. Naruto Uzumaki, who used his own "separation technique" in the transformation assessment, is a hard-working old father Iruka. The future Konoha Twelve Xiaoqiang who just made a cutscene at the beginning...
Very common juvenile manga opening.
Of course, Fang Lian is not unclear about the plot of the animation he has handled. Right now, he was sitting in front of the screen, and what he was looking at was not the plot itself, but an effect of the overall picture. Therefore, at this moment, while looking at the results of his work, he commented as objectively as possible:
"The number of subscriptions in the initial stage of this animation is estimated to be not very good."
After all, Fang Lian can be considered an experienced cartoonist now, and he still has some basic judgments about commercial animation: "The plot in the early stage of "Naruto" is not bad, but the pace is still too slow, and the design of the combat system is not bad. Although the setting is novel, the plot overall lacks anything surprising.”
He commented: "Overall, the number of subscriptions should not be bad, but it is probably impossible to become a big hit at the beginning like our previous animations."
Mu Xing smiled, neither denying nor agreeing.
With the completion of the first episode of "Naruto", a lot of comments have emerged in the comment area at the bottom of the video page. Although ordinary viewers may not see it as thoroughly as professionals, their viewing experience is almost the same. of.
"It's still pretty."
"It's good-looking, but I always feel that something is missing? No, it's just that this animation is actually okay in general, with an above-average look, but it doesn't have the amazing feeling of the animations I watched before. I put it on other animation companies. It's an extraordinary performance, but it doesn't look good enough when placed on Huaying... Could it be that my appetite has been spoiled by Huaying?"
"As far as the first episode is concerned, it can only be regarded as the normal level of Huaying's normal performance."
"The background setting is still very interesting, and the painting style is not bad. The fourth generation Hokage in the opening scene is so stunning. Unfortunately, he died on the spot, which is heartbreaking. I heard that this animation is a full-length? It feels good so far. I hope it will appear in the follow-up Some impressive and eye-catching plots."
really.
Those who will watch the animation as soon as it starts broadcasting and reply to comments immediately are basically loyal fans of Huaying animation. It's just that Fang Lian already had predictions and judgments before the animation was played, so it's not surprising to see the audience's comments now.
I wonder how many scores these viewers will give "Naruto"?
8 points? 9 points is estimated to be a bit uncertain, but it is not without consideration...
As he thought about it, he searched the score on his phone. He thought the score should be between 8 and 9. However, the series of comprehensive scores appearing on the right side of "Naruto" made Fang Lian almost I was dumbfounded.
9.5 points?
Fang Lian was really surprised at this moment: "Don't all the reviews say it's average? How can the overall score be so high? This..." 9.5 points, this is the category of a masterpiece, right? He didn't remember that they asked the navy to score points.
"This is the brand effect." Shepherd Xing said.
The plot of "Naruto" in the early stage is a bit slow.
For other companies, producing slow-paced animations in today’s fast-paced market environment is undoubtedly asking for trouble, but the current Huaying animation will not have such troubles—for audiences who are accustomed to watching animations , produced by Huaying, it is a boutique, if you are not surprised at first, then please refer to "Magic Girl Madoka Magica".
Therefore, although many viewers have said that the early plot of "Naruto" is ordinary and not amazing, they did not give a low score because of this, but chose five-star wait and see without hesitation.
When encountering passer-by viewers who thought that "Naruto" was average, many viewers even took the initiative to explain, hoping that the newcomers would not be discouraged by the mediocrity at the beginning. In terms of Huaying's style, the subsequent plots will only become more exciting and slow-paced. It is the proof that Huaying wants to tell an interesting story seriously. I hope newcomers can be more patient with Huaying, Huaying will never let them down.
The same thing soon happened to "One Piece".
Compared with "Naruto", "One Piece" has actually received more criticism-the reason is actually simple. If the style of "Naruto" is the kind that can attract audiences who control face, then "Naruto" One Piece" is the kind that can dissuade countless female fans just by its style of painting.
However, even so, the word-of-mouth reputation of "One Piece" is surprisingly high.
Whether it is a fan who likes Huaying itself, or a black fan who has no affection for Huaying, neither cares about the slow pace at the beginning of the two animations.
It seems that everyone agrees that "Naruto" and "One Piece" will definitely be two undisputed high-quality animations. Right now, I feel average, just because the good show is coming.
When the first episodes of "Naruto" and "One Piece" ended and they topped the list of new summer animations with nearly 10 million subscribers, no one objected to this.
Many animation-related media class magazines even set up special columns to analyze details one after another, and take the initiative to explain to the audience why they feel so-so. They are afraid that such a good long-form animation will be forced to die because it does not receive enough support. look.
Shen Nian, the editor-in-chief of "Anime Online", opened a special topic on animation on the title page of her magazine. At the beginning of this article, she wrote straight to the point:
"These are two very interesting animations - some people have seen the novel and fun combat system, and some have seen the youth's blood, dreams and never give up. But my biggest feeling is that from these two animations, there is no rush Slowly, in the two worlds that spread out little by little, I can see Huaying's ambition."
Chapter 220
"Let's talk about Naruto first."
"The details of this animation are very good, not only the pictures, but also the character performances, soundtracks and other common aspects. If the audience carefully looks at the movements of the characters using ninjutsu in the animation, they will find that in this In this animation, ninjutsu is not our common technique of casting a move immediately, or using simple gestures to complete the casting - in "Naruto", ninjutsu is a set of clearly corresponding seal tables. "
"Each ninjutsu has its specific knuckle gesture."
"For a hot-blooded boy manga, what is the most important thing? It is blood, emotion, and a battle that can make people feel happy and hearty. The battle setting in "Naruto" just meets this point, The setting of the ninjutsu seal makes the battle scenes in the animation look novel and full of a wonderful sense of ritual and movement.”
"And all this is just the beginning."
"As a freshly baked ninja school graduate, the ninjutsu Uzumaki Naruto can master is undoubtedly extremely limited, which further limits the excitement of the current battle scene, but it is conceivable that with the further development of the storyline, Naruto's story and combat will only get richer and better."
Shen Nian had a very high evaluation of "Naruto".
To put it simply, in this animation, she saw the qualities that an excellent hot-blooded boy manga should have. With the aesthetics of painting and shadow, with the development of the plot, these qualities will only become more and more eye-catching , rather than gradually fading away. And as long as Huaying can better shape this prototype, "Naruto" will definitely become the pinnacle of fighting shounen manga!
This is Naruto.
As for "One Piece", which was launched one day later than "Naruto"——
"interesting."
Different from the analysis of the battle setting of "Naruto", for "One Piece", Shen Nian focused more on the background of the story of "One Piece".
"The background setting of this animation is quite interesting."
As if to emphasize his point of view, in this article commenting on "One Piece", Shen Nian used two consecutive "interesting:
"The name of the animation is "One Piece". We all know that in real life, pirates are also thieves after all, and they should be the existence that everyone shouts to fight. The beginning of the animation is also about the life of the generation of One Piece Gol-D-Roger Execution, because of his final declaration before he died, countless people rushed to the sea, and the world ushered in the era of great pirates."
"At first glance, it seems to be just an ordinary adventure setting, but combined with the plot of the first episode, it gives people a feeling of confusion."
"For ordinary people, the era of pirates is obviously not a good thing. In other words, the One Piece who single-handedly led to the era of great pirates should not be a good thing. But in this animation, the protagonist Luffy is It is my lifelong dream to become the One Piece.”
"Still, in the eyes of the original author and Luffy himself, this so-called One Piece is actually a very remarkable title, so that in the animation of the first episode, Luffy showed a bright smile, confident and confident Tell everyone—he decided to become the Pirate King, even if he lost his life for it?"
"That's interesting."
"Judging from the current plot of "One Piece" and the character design of the protagonist Luffy, this is obviously a typical royal and passionate comic. In this way, even if Roger, One Piece, is not a good person in the true sense, he can still deal with big issues of right and wrong. In fact, the position represented by this character undoubtedly represents the political correctness in animation.”
"Then now comes the problem."
"What happened in the world of "One Piece" and what kind of political situation caused Luo Jie to know what the proliferation of pirates would bring to this world, so he wanted to say those words before he died, which opened the seemingly The era of great pirates that made the whole world more chaotic? What role does the world government play in this process?"
"I have a hunch that "One Piece" seems to be trying to tell something profound beyond the regular blood and adventures of teenagers."
At the end of the manga review, Shen Niansu said: "It is these two impeccable feature-length animations that let me see Huaying's ambition to dominate the Bluestar animation industry."
"From "IS", which was not nutritious at the beginning, to "Harry Potter" and "Detective Conan", which are enough to influence a generation, to "Naruto" and "Naruto", which will accompany all audiences now, through the next ten years "One Piece."
By that time, all animation viewers of Bluestar, even if they are not fans of Huaying animation, will definitely have a little different feeling and feelings for Huaying after being influenced by so many animations. As long as people are still watching animations, and as long as the quality of Huaying does not plummet, Huaying will stand forever with the complete business chain after the opening of the theme park.
In this regard, other companies can only smile bitterly.
After all, no matter what, the dominance of Huaying relies on real quality, rather than various small tricks like Yunsu. Even if other animation companies are unwilling to do so, they have nothing to do - animation production is They can't rely on their own strength to talk about their strength, so they ask Huaying to let them go, right?
The only thing that can make other companies breathe a little easier is the current situation of Huaying Theme Park.
At least judging from the current news in Huaying, Huaying Theme Park is more like a tool for Huaying to build a pan-entertainment business chain. In addition, with the competitor of Yunsu Theme Park, Huaying’s business chain wants to build a Success is probably not a goal that can be achieved within one or two years.
It seemed to confirm their guess.
In the face of Yunsu theme park's unilateral publicity, Huaying has not moved at all, except "Naruto" and "One Piece" are still updated according to the frequency of weekly updates. When the plots of the two animations were gradually getting better, the time came to the beginning of September.
This should have been a quiet day.
Considering that Blue Star's large-scale disaster film "Start of School" has been released, according to the usual practice, students in major universities should be busy with homework right now, preparing for the upcoming new semester and new school military training. The bustling Internet has become a lot quieter.
In fact, this year's school season was originally the same.
However, a small accident made this year's school season more lively than ever——
The cause of the incident was a "Hogwarts Admission Notice" posted by a Harry Potter fan on Weibo, and posted on Weibo that his parents were Muggles, so there was no time or convenience to send him Going to King's Cross Station, are there any friends who are freshmen at Hogwarts with you?
"Ministry of Magic Non-Disclosure Agreement Warning."
"My God, are the freshmen this year so naive? How many times have I said that it is forbidden to reveal the magic world to Muggles, how dare Po master ask such a question on the Muggle communication platform? Do you want Was he the first person to be expelled by the headmaster for revealing the secrets of the magic world right after he was admitted?"
Up to this point, the style of the comment area is still normal.
until--
"I'm really convinced of your freshmen this year, and none of them are strict with their mouths. Do you know how much trouble and work burden it will cause the Ministry of Magic to deal with after you publish such information on the Muggle platform without authorization... Oh, Gryffindor, it's all right."
"? The tone upstairs is so yin and yang, I'm afraid it's not a fool of Slytherin, right? The sorting hat didn't say anything, what kind of house did you assign the freshmen without authorization?"
"Come here, come here, it's the smell of the Lion Snake online battle I'm familiar with, the melon seed soda is sold in the front row, don't miss it when you pass by, Hogwarts traditional college culture click to watch!"
In this way, line-to-line line-to-line, watching the excitement, waiting until this Weibo is surrounded by people who flock to, or join in the fun, or watch the crowd eating melons, this post originated from Harry Potter fans and then On Weibo, several related topics have quietly entered the top ten hot searches.
#Hogwarts Start Day#
#Ministry of Magic Confidentiality Agreement#
#Hogwarts Admissions Office#
Needless to say, the popularity of "Harry Potter", as more and more people saw these topics from the Weibo hot search list, more and more netizens joined in with a smile. Some people plunged headlong into the lion-snake battlefield for happy laning, and some enthusiastically pointed out the precautions for new students at Hogwarts. In the end, they even unified the Hogwarts Admissions Office:
"If you are a top student, come to Ravenclaw!"
"Which house to choose? Needless to say? As we all know, Gryffindor is the best house in Hogwarts, not one of them! The Sorting Hat? The Sorting Hat is actually just one aspect. Normally, the Sorting Hat will also Consider the student's own wishes, our Gryffindor pride - that's how the Savior came in."
"Not much to say, [Harry Potter video clip: Slytherin male model group] find out."
"No, no, don't listen to them. What is the most important thing about going to school? It's accommodation! Among other things, our Hufflepuff dormitory is definitely the most comfortable environment! And the school's kitchen is in our dormitory Not far away, it’s very convenient to eat anything you want, and everyone in the college is very friendly, much friendlier than other colleges.”
Not just netizens.
As the popularity of Hogwarts-related topics further expanded, many Blue Star public figures also left the stage one after another, or posted admission notices on Weibo, or uploaded photos of themselves wearing college wizard robes, and followed the netizens Enthusiastically playing with memes.
The one who used the tone of someone who has experienced it seriously reminded the students to pay attention to studying at Hogwarts, so that the students should study hard; the one who said that he had graduated from Hogwarts for many years was serious He talked about interesting things about his time at Hogwarts.
All of a sudden, it can be described as exciting and lively.
A similar "enrollment" behavior also took place at Huaying headquarters.
While other people were still excited about the video of [Slytherin Male Model Group], Wen Feihang here could see at a glance that the editing method of this video, which could not be more familiar, was created by his son At this moment, he stood in front of people and complained:
"Return to the Slytherin male model group, Fang Lian, are you disgusting? How dare you do this kind of shameless behavior of recruiting students based on your face?!"
Fang Lian snorted: "Damn, it's like you didn't use Hermione's model to make a dance video to recruit Gryffindor."
The two were about to have a happy juncture over the dignity of the academy, but the voice of the Shepherd star on the other end rang out: "I heard your voices from a long distance away, what are you arguing about?"
Wen Feihang pouted angrily, and was about to complain about Fang Lian's shameless deeds to Shepherd Xing, but Fang Lian on the other end rolled his eyes, and said nonchalantly: "This is not to see that your Weibo fans are about to exceed 100 million. Thinking about fan benefits for you? No, Wen Feihang just suggested you wear women's clothing, and I scolded you mercilessly."
Wen Feihang:? ? ?
"No, when will I..."
Before Wen Feihang had time to explain, he heard Fang Lian over there quickly interface: "If you want me to say, women's clothing is definitely not acceptable, so Amu, why don't you consider a cosplay photo of "Harry Potter" or something like that?" Yes? Didn’t you say that Hogwarts Castle has already been built? This is not only a welfare for fans, but also a promotion for the theme park, wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone and kill two birds with one stone!”
Wen Feihang was shocked.
Is there such a routine?
He had a faint premonition in his heart, and looking at the expression of Shepherd Xing now, he also showed signs of loosening. Obviously he did not reject Fang Lian's suggestion, so he just asked casually: "Cosplay? Who?"
"It stands to reason that the role of Harry's Gryffindor house should be the most suitable," Fang Lian deliberately paused at this point, and spoke proudly to Wen Feihang in a corner where the shepherd star could not see He made a grimace: "Unfortunately, in terms of age, most of the characters in Gryffindor College are not suitable."
"The young version of Dumbledore, or Sirius is a good choice. Unfortunately, in the Harry Potter movies that have been released so far, neither of them has appeared, so they are not suitable for cosplay. It is difficult to choose other marginal roles. It’s the effect of promoting Huaying Theme Park by the way.”
Shepherd star raised his eyebrows: "So?"
"So," Fang Lian said solemnly, "To me, Tom Riddle, who played in "Harry Potter Chamber of Secrets", is definitely the most suitable candidate!"
