Chapter 384. 2.1w disc sales! (4000 words)(1/2)
The first sale day for Unnatural Death and June’s Hymn is coming soon.
Both Higashino Studio and Tokyo Animation are looking forward to the sales results.
A Blu-ray disc of "Unnatural Death" has two episodes and is accompanied by a collection poster hand-painted by Higashinoji himself.
This is the very traditional Blu-ray disc packaging method.
The pricing is also considered a normal price on the market, and 5,000 yen can take away the first volume of "Unnatural Death" Blu-ray disc.
On the other side, "Hymn of June", should be said to be worthy of being a big production company?
It’s just that I’m very confident and the pricing is directly raised to 6,500 yen.
There is also an extra gadget like a keychain than "Unnatural Death", which is also called the luxury collector's version.
Even Higashinoji looked puzzled when he saw this scene.
You should know that such high pricing for Blu-ray discs will inevitably affect the competition between "June Hymn" and "Unnatural Death".
After all, not everyone can afford 6,500 yen to pay for "June's Hymn".
This 'deluxe collector' is even more joking.
Isn’t it just an extra keychain costing two or three hundred yen? I didn’t expect Higashinoji to add 1,500 yen directly - it felt like he was a scam that he had published at Toshima Publishing House.
He sighed that the capitalist was indeed powerful and had never fallen behind in this aspect of being unethical. Then he began to scan the sales of Blu-ray discs.
"Unnatural Death"'s first sales reached 20,000 pieces, which is much higher than the starting point of the 1.5W discs in "The Winner Is Justice".
This result is very good.
Even when Yano Ryuichi and Seo Daigo saw this, they smiled with satisfaction and gave a big sigh.
Yes.
As a newcomer studio, being able to achieve this kind of success again in the second animation production can be considered as worthy of the big production invested by Higashinoji.
But after thinking about it, they also found that this was of course.
"Unnatural Death" is supported by the original Higashinoji national comics. The plot is undeniable, and there is a large number of loyal fans who will pay for it.
In addition, the production of Higashino Studio is also very good, so it is understandable to reach this point.
After watching the sales of "Unnatural Death", the next step is the results of several other animation companies that need to be cared about.
First of all, of course, is the Dujing Animation Company that needs to be paid the most this quarter.
Perhaps because of the Blu-ray disc ‘Luxury Collection Edition’, Tokyo Animation’s sales volume stopped at 1.80,000 pieces, lagging behind Higashino Studio by 2,000 pieces.
But this result also surprised Higashinoji a little.
It is worthy of being the leader in the industry. Even if it launches an immoral ‘luxury collector’, so many people are willing to buy it.
If the name Dujing animation is replaced with MIC animation, sales may plummet.
Thinking of this, Higashinoji was even more confused.
Why does Dujing Animation launch a ‘deluxe collector’? Isn’t this affecting its own performance?
never mind.
Since he didn't understand, Higashinoji did not continue to think, but looked down.
MIC Animation Company's "Akashi's Strange Daily" obviously does not have the ability to challenge Higashino Studio in a positive way.
Their performance is similar to the sales volume of discs in the last season. They hid behind and watched Higashino Studio fight with Tokyo Animation, for fear that if you are not careful, the war will affect you.
There is really no need to worry about the sales of the disc. Higashinoji just took a look and continued to sweep down.
Then he saw the acquaintance of Asuka Club.
As mentioned earlier, Asuki Club is the animation production company that focuses on cute production girls.
I have to say that this company is still as Buddhist as ever. It has a video on its official website and it has not promoted it much since then.
But the results are so good that the disc sales are not only outstanding, but also second only to Higashino Studio and Tokyo Animation.
The attitude of this Buddhist animation production company has always been inconspicuous.
Could it be that all Buddhists are so powerful?
But this has nothing to do with Higashinoji and the others.
Due to the inexplicable operation of Dokyo Animation's "Luxury Collection Edition", "Unnatural Death" directly topped the credibility list.
The next step is to maintain this top position.
Higashinoji discussed with Yano Ryuichi and the others for a while, but finally found that there was nothing to discuss.
After all, Dongye Studio has already made perfect preparations in advance.
They quickly ended the meeting, and Higashino Studio temporarily entered a time of relaxation.
After all, during the period when the animation was broadcast, Higashino Studio had nothing to do, and most of the animation was completed.
Higashinoji also pulled Yano Ryuichi to play table tennis, and called him several times 11:2.
In fact, this can be considered as taking care of Ryuichi Yano's emotions. In order not to make him, the "Table Pong Prince" lose too much, Higashinoji deliberately sent a few empty balls.
During this period, Seo Daigo, who also completed the work, saw Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi playing basketball. When his hands were itchy, he also called Higashinoji and wanted to give him a few moves.
Seo Daigo also said that in order to respect Higashinoji, he would not let go - he used to be a table tennis player at a famous university.
However, when the fight officially started, Seo Daigo also ate Higashinoji several times and never mentioned the release of water again.
Release water – impossible.
Just playing table tennis, the people of the Celestial Empire have indescribable advantages.
And when Higashinoji and his team finished playing the ball, they came out.
Akisa Kuromiya also happened to stand up with a newspaper and handed it to Higashinoji.
As Higashinoji's apprentice, Kuromiya Akisa is now the original painting supervisor of Higashino Studio. She is a member of the main creative team and is also a high-ranking position and replaced Higashinoji's responsibility to correct the original painting.
Her personality is usually very calm.
But now it's a little different.
Her expression looked a little weird, as if she was stunned by what was in the newspaper: "Teacher Higashino, look at this."
"What's wrong?"
The sales situation of "Unnatural Death" is very good, and Higashinoji is in a good mood, so he took the newspaper with a smile and took a look.
Then...
Higashinoji's expression suddenly became weird.
It's really weird...
The matter reported in this newspaper happened to be the matter with Dujing Animation.
It seems that the "deluxe collector's version" of "June's Hymn" which was suddenly sold by the marketing department, made Deutero Hiramatsu, the animation director of "June's Hymn", angry.
He rushed directly into the marketing department, picked up the main person in charge of animation sales and beat him up.
I heard that Hiratsu Tokuno was still from the Karate Department when he was in college...
Good guy.
Because the 'deluxe collector's version' affected their production team's achievements in winning the championship, animation supervisor De Tomoto was so angry that he directly attacked the person in charge.
And it is a real-life version of the PK.
Higashinoji couldn't help but rub his temples, feeling that reality was indeed magical.
But in fact, he has seen this twice.
Last time, it was for his "Luxury Character Collection" in "Hanzawa Naoki", Urashima Editor-in-Chief led Hosokawa Koharu almost worked with the marketing department.
As a result, this scene was staged in Dokyo animation again today.
And it was on the news.
This is really...
Higashinoji and the others looked strange.
But it is obvious that Higashinoji doesn't know much about Japanese corporate culture.
Some large Japanese companies have strict division of labor, and basically there is little communication or communication between departments.
Therefore, the decisions made by this department cannot give any decisions or opinions - this will make people in other departments feel that you are offending him and questioning his professional level.
Therefore, it is not uncommon for the two departments to argue with each other in Japan.
"I thought it was the production team of "June's Hymn" that couldn't figure out what luxury collector's version it had launched. It turned out to be a thing set by their marketing department. This mistake was too big."
Looking at this news, Yano Ryuichi also suppressed his gloating smile and coughed twice.
There is no way, this is really funny.
But on the other hand, this is probably an inconvenient place for large companies.
