"Bang!"
"Are all of you managers useless? You can't even handle a 'Dream Without Bounds'!"
"With such a high salary, I just teamed up with a bunch of losers like you?!"
"Who patted his chest and guaranteed that there would be no problem?!"
Inside the Tengman conference room.
Director Yan Pengfei was furious and scolded several supervisors.
In just a few days, the situation reversed dramatically and the top spot was directly taken by "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day"!
The industry is laughing at them!
Both companies chose the theme of "friendship".
Now "Dreams Without Boundaries" has reached the top with an unstoppable momentum, surpassing their nearly one million votes.
This is a blatant slap in their face!
You, a giant, can't even compete with a fledgling studio on the same subject!
Several supervisors remained silent.
The competition is over today and the rankings are almost set.
If you want to forcibly reverse the situation, you will need to invest a lot of financial and human resources.
The final result will be more harm than good!
They also didn't expect that "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day" would break the circle in this way.
Now almost all the popular short videos are about "Don't Cry Challenge!"
This kind of thing that comes from the behavior of many netizens themselves is far more influential than marketing events supported by money!
"Mr. Yan, I think 'Dreams Without Bounds' has great potential. Your last suggestion might be..."
A supervisor said tentatively.
Yan Pengfei nodded slightly. The last proposal?
"You mean acquiring 'Dreams Without Bounds'?"
"Yes, this kind of commercial acquisition is quite common in our Tencent Manga."
"Since Abao is reluctant to part with their company, then we will buy it entirely!"
"Currently, the valuation of 'Dream Without Bounds' is only 300 to 400 million yuan."
"Even if we don't develop new games after buying them, we can still operate the IPs of the previous works. It's definitely not a loss!"
In their view, buying a company valued at hundreds of millions is like buying vegetables at the market.
Yan Pengfei thought about it seriously. He just mentioned it casually last time.
Although I pay attention to "Dreams Without Borders", I don't regard them as a strong rival.
However, this time he was wrong!
The breaking circle effect of "Anohana" directly knocked them off the altar!
In this case, acquiring "Dream Without Borders" seems to be a good choice!
"It's just that... the competition has just ended, and we're already discussing the acquisition. Will it cause negative news if it gets out?"
Yan Pengfei had some concerns.
Although it is a normal business behavior, if it is put on the Internet, it may become "If Tencent and Manga can't beat it, then acquire it"!
I also wonder if Tencent has lost its innovative power and can only rely on acquiring new companies to replenish fresh blood...
"Mr. Yan, don't worry about this. I will coordinate with the public relations department to get things done."
"Then we can announce that Dreams Without Borders wants to expand and seek strategic investment..."
Yan Pengfei nodded, this was a good idea.
If those who promote "Dreams Without Borders" come to us and seek cooperation, then we can't just buy them out if we can't beat them!
"Okay, you go and arrange this..."
…………
"How did things... become like this..."
Yang Xiaoyang felt inexplicably suffocated when he looked at "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day" which was ranked first!
Now when you open various video platforms, you will see them all doing the “Don’t Cry Challenge”!
I don’t know if others are crying or not.
Yang Xiaoyang was almost crying!
Damn, these people, are they just bored?!
An anime, your whole Mao challenge!
And followed the trend!
If you have nothing to do, just go to the express company and finish your work for the day!
Look at how idle you are all day long!
Yang Xiaoyang could only comfort himself that fortunately the first prize plus the rest still amounted to a loss of five million!
There is also such a perverted rebate of 300 times.
That’s a full 1.5 billion!
Although it was 600 million less than expected, this wave of profit was still a huge one.
"I want to expand my horizons. It's just a few hundred million, but there will be hundreds of billions and trillions of business waiting for me to lose in the future!"
"Knock knock!" At this time, Abao pushed the door open.
"Boss Yang, I'm going out for a while..."
"Oh? Where are you going at this hour?"
"Aren't we in first place now? The competition officials want to talk to us about cooperation..."
"I heard that guest judge Yoshino Kawa Yuki is also coming, and he might come to talk to us..."
After all, "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day" has become popular, so it is reasonable for them to collaborate.
"Okay, let's go. You don't have to go back to the company if it's late, you can just go home directly."
A Bao reminded him again, "Oh, and there's also the judge, Yoshino Kawa Yuki. He might come over to talk to us..."
"Who is Yoshino Kawayuki?" Yang Xiaoyang's big eyes revealed a clear confusion.
Mr. Yang, you don’t have to slack off like this.
Even the judges of this competition don’t know much about it.
"It's from Neon Toei..."
Unexpectedly, after Abao finished speaking, Yang Xiaoyang kept staring at him, full of curiosity!
Good god, it turns out you, the boss of an animation company, don’t even know this?!
"It's the Toei character that made Doraemon... Crayon Shin-chan..."
Yang Xiaoyang suddenly understood and clapped his hands: "Oh wow, Doraemon! I understand this, I think it's cute."
Childhood memories come flooding back!
A Bao held his forehead and said, "They haven't told me what they're here for yet. How about we schedule a meeting room and talk to them?"
"Okay, go ahead."
"What time are you free?"
"Me?" Yang Xiaoyang smelled a hint of danger.
"Yeah, you're the boss, why don't you show up?"
"No, no, I'm going shopping later, you can do whatever you want..."
Yang Xiaoyang shook his head like a rattle.
She is still a single person at heart and is most afraid of formal occasions!
Otherwise, when Bilibili held the awards ceremony, they would not have let Abao go on stage to receive the award on behalf of "Dreams Without Borders".
This time we have another well-known Japanese producer here, and the topics we will talk about are definitely very professional.
She is a hands-off boss who spends all day thinking of ways to lose money. How could she understand these things?
If someone asks, "What do you think of the animation industry? How can we create more three-dimensional characters..."
If the truth is revealed as soon as you talk about it, wouldn't that be a huge shame?!
"Okay, Mr. Yang." Seeing how nervous she was, Abao guessed what she was thinking.
"Wait a moment!"
Just as Abao was about to leave, Yang Xiaoyang stopped him, resting his elbows on the table and holding his face:
"Are you free this weekend, Po?"
A Bao nodded: "I don't usually have anything to do on weekends. Does the company have any plans?"
"Hey, of course, keep it a secret now!"
Yang Xiaoyang smiled and started planning the weekend script in his mind!
I am the boss, and what I say is the company's business!
Going out with the boss is also part of the job!
