After the competition concludes, the various works will be screened.
But this does not mean the competition is over.
In fact, there is also a hidden contest.
That's what's called sales volume.
After all, the purpose of the competition is only to select outstanding works, but what they consider outstanding has little to do with the market.
That's why we have sales volume data.
This has been the case in previous years as well.
The competition selects outstanding works, which are then uploaded to the channel for pay-per-view viewing.
Then it's up to the audience to decide whether or not to watch the show.
Especially during its initial release, it was almost entirely available for pay-per-view.
This is because it relates to the number of times an animated film can be re-released; the better the animated film, the higher its sales.
The higher the sales volume, the more times it will be replayed.
In fact.
The money-making model for entries in the competition is very simple.
First, they gained recognition through competitions, and then they were shown in theaters around the world.
After the premiere, those with high sales will wait for the next re-release.
For products with low sales volume, just wait for the time to pass and then start the sales mode directly on the platform's official website.
Those films with high sales can only be shown a maximum of three times. Even if they still have high sales, they cannot be shown again.
Only after three theatrical releases will the film be available on the platform for the next round of sales.
However, this time the sales are on a ten-year basis, which is much better than sales based on the number of transactions.
However, the official website occasionally pulls some tricks.
That is, some exceptionally good animated films will be released a few years later, and in this case, the sales of the animated film may even be higher than the first time.
Then a few years later it was released a third time, and although it wasn't as good as the first two, it was still very popular.
There's no way around it; people are willing to spend money for their own spiritual enjoyment, especially since the money isn't actually that expensive.
The price of entries for the competition is generally between 5 and 10 US dollars for the first three screenings, which is not an expensive price even for students.
Moreover, this is the price shown on TV; if you have friends or family members, the price will be even cheaper if you split it among yourselves.
An Yutang is not worried about sales volume; she does not believe the sales of this work will be low.
However, despite not being worried, curiosity is inevitable.
So she turned on her computer, logged into the official website, and checked the sales figures for the movie "Havoc in Heaven".
These will all be published on the official website.
When the sales data related to the work was presented to An Yutang, even though she was mentally prepared, she was still shocked by the number.
"Sales volume of 10,000."
Sales volume of over 1.7 billion!
An unimaginable number.
"If I remember correctly, the highest-selling animated film in the entire history has never exceeded one billion in sales."
An Yutang felt a chill run down her spine when she saw the number.
This number was completely unexpected.
That's a full 700 million in sales, exceeding the second place!
This means that more than 1.7 billion people may have watched this animated film.
But the world only has a population of over seven billion!
She imagined that Zhou Tianyi's animated film would cause a sensation.
But he never imagined that his animated films would become a global phenomenon.
Not only was An Yutang shocked, but the entire global animation film industry was shaken by this number.
The entire industry was shaken.
That's absolutely amazing.
This is a number that no one in the animation film industry could even imagine.
But it actually happened right before my eyes.
When this number was revealed, even the officials began to celebrate, saying that it had created a miracle and broken records.
Even the officials didn't expect someone to achieve such brilliant and dazzling results.
They believe that with this centennial celebration, they might break the existing record, but it's uncertain, and failure is still possible, since no one can guarantee anything.
However, they did not expect that Dao's work would not only break the existing record, but even make history.
Of course, they don't think that all of this is due to the centennial celebration. There has been publicity in previous years, but never such a dazzling achievement.
Ultimately, all of this is a work of the Tao, so outstanding that it is a miracle created by the Tao itself.
On the Chinese internet.
"Of that one in seven billion, there is a portion of the rice I contributed."
"Using US dollars still feels a bit expensive; it's better to use our Chinese currency."
"As a Chinese citizen, I don't care, but I thought our prices would be different from those in other countries."
"The price is uniformly based on the US dollar standard, and then adjusted according to the exchange rate of each country, so the difference will not be significant."
"As for the differential treatment you want, what are you dreaming about? You can have anything in your dreams."
"I don't know why, but when I saw that Dao had achieved this result, I was not surprised at all. Instead, I felt that it was only natural."
"Yes, this is a world-class animated film that even Tom and Miyazaki surpassed. It's not surprising that it achieved this result."
"I would even consider it normal if I could break the record set by Gong."
"Perhaps it's because I've seen too much of Zhou Tianyi. I think it's not surprising that Dao has achieved this result."
"..."
While the whole world was amazed by the achievements of Tao, netizens in China found it all quite normal.
After all, with the story of Zhou Tianyi and the dragon as a precedent, no matter how excellent the Dao is, it is not excessive.
In many people's minds, Tao is far more powerful and superior than the former two.
