Chapter 487： Welcome the new year

After the time entered February, the magic capital and even the entire Dragon Kingdom gradually became busy.

For many industries, employees have been on holiday during this time period, and Longguo’s new round of Spring Festival travel began ten days ago.

Although there are a lot fewer people on the street, the so-called fewer people are just relative to the usual. In fact, near Chu Yu's residence, if you go out without luck, whether you are driving or walking, you will feel very crowded.

After dealing with the things during the Chinese New Year, Chu Yu, his two comic assistants and most of the people in the animation studio, let them go back on holiday.

At the dinner party last night, a group of people drank drunk, of course, after drinking, it was the much-anticipated bonus section.

For the entire year of 2023, Chu Yu’s work on comics is only Jojo’s bizarre adventure. After a year of serialization, the prequel serialization ended, and the main serialization plan was launched in the middle of the year. This work is finally slightly at the end of the year. To Chu Yu's satisfaction, he finally reached the fifth position in more than 20 serialized comics in the Xuan Jing Periodical.

Counting a comic that has only been serialized for a year, this result is already very good... But after all, there is still a big gap with Chu Yu's summit goal.

But there is no way. Comics like Naruto and Pirates in the parallel world are not at their peaks as soon as they come out. Slam Dunk was relatively sluggish at the beginning of the serialization. The author wanted to add some fighting plots before he came out with Mitsui Shou. Click on the fighting scene of the bad boy to revive the popularity! It was also during the serialization of this plot that the idea of ​​letting him play basketball came up...After all, the serialization cycle of comics is long, and the popularity and other things are slow.

Animation is different. It is true that Chuyu is now so famous in the Dragon Kingdom, and even was named the top ten outstanding young people of 2023 by the magic city, mainly relying on the achievements in animation.

Throughout 2023, Chu Yu produced the rebellious Lelouch's first season, Puella Magi Madoka Magica theatrical version, the first season of White Album 2, the second season, Miss Hui Ye wanted me to confess and many more. Animation, with these works, within a year, Chu Yu, broadcast share, peripheral sales, copyright sales and other aspects of income, almost four to five billion a year, even if Chu Yu does not do anything, his past cartoons Calculating the revenue sharing of works such as animation, animation, etc., millions of income will be credited in a month, and this revenue will continue for the next few years.

At the end of the present day, Chu Yu had summed up the money in his bank cards, and removed the estimated income of the second season of White Album 2 and the rebellious Lelouch's second season, which are now serialized here. After all, there is not yet. In the account...just the past deposits plus the income during this period of time, the assets in Chu Yu's account have reached 680 million...Of course, the last few months at the end of the year The main income of the two works is Madoka Puella Magi and Lelouch the rebellious. The peripheral sales of the two works are large. The peripheral sales of White Album 2 are also good, but they are much inferior to the previous two.

After all, the handsome figure that Madoka turns into the **** of magic is priced at more than 5,000 on the Internet, and the figures in the rebellious Lelouch are all models, like Lancelot, Guren, Rogue, etc. .......Range from a few hundred to a few thousand.

One day, Huang Ming asked Chu Yu to draw a **** original picture of cc, saying it was used for publicity. I didn’t know that Huang Ming used this original picture to make a cc figure for his partners, and he was still in the mood for it. The title of the original painting is advertised. Although it is true that the figure is really big and beautiful, and it is also very sexy........There are also various dazzling decorations, but Chu Yu thinks that it has sold more than 10,000 The price is a bit exaggerated, but what is even more outrageous is that this kind of thing is actually ordered by a thousand people.........

Of course, only one thousand were sold because the limited sale quantity is one thousand. It feels like marketing hunger, but fans just eat this set..........

Judging from Chu Yu's eyes, who would spend so much money on buying a toy............ Chu Yu is so rich, he would not buy these, not because he thinks it is expensive, but I don't think it's worth it. If you buy it, you will feel like being pitted...he will buy it for a few dollars!

But in fact, there are really many rich people in Long Guo, and it's not just Long Guo rich in rich people. After the introduction of Lelouch from Europe and the United States, these things are also sold well after Xiao Yuan animation.

Plus some cos servers, Blu-ray discs, toys, etc....... In this copyright-sound world, these works have a variety of income channels, and they are far more profitable than the parallel world.

This is also the reason why Chu Yu's wealth has grown so fast this year. Fifteen to sixty percent are the proceeds of the two works of Moyuan and Lelouch. .

To be honest, sometimes Chu Yu feels that his money comes faster than he steals money. After all, if a robber robs one million a day, he won’t be able to grab so much money in a year! Moreover, with his current assets, the annual interest in bank deposits is several million.

Therefore, Chu Yu naturally didn't care too much about things like dinner and drinking in the studio last night, and bonuses by the way.

Originally, Chu Yu said that it would be done by directly punching their cards, but Huang Ming strongly advocated finding money, because from his previous work experience, the money he punched in didn’t feel much, as if the numbers had increased, but there was Once, Jiuxing found that gold was given to him as a bonus.........it was so excited at that time!

So Chu Yu listened to Huang Ming, and at the scheduled time, he went to the bank to withdraw hundreds of catties of Hundred Yuan Dragon National Coins, and the two of them with Huang Ming carried their backs to the gathering place side by side. Two bonuses.

To be honest, the two big sacks of money are indeed a bit shocking in front of people. It is obviously only a small amount of less than ten million in the eyes of Chu Yu, but when he saw such a pile of money, he was stunned for several seconds.. .......At that moment, Chu Yu really felt the meaning of Huang Ming's number theory, indeed... it would be really exciting to have the real thing in front of you.

There are a few animation studio employees who are receiving money. When holding a few stacks of bonuses, their hands are indeed shaking.

There is no way. Although Longguo animation industry is different from Parallel World because of the increase in copyright awareness, one thing is the same... Animation staff salaries are as low as in Parallel World.

In the Longguo animation industry, a young painter who just graduated is not exhausted, with a salary of three to five k, but still has to work in 997, like Chu Yu, such as their animation studio creating so many movies. The work is extremely profitable, which is the only case in Long Country.

After all, the works that Chu Yu brought out were all works that have been tested in the parallel world market. He is really not interested in working on ordinary works. This kind of return rate is natural.

But in fact, the animation industry is not so beautiful. Many works are made at a loss. Some peripherals may be added to barely protect the cost. Just like the movie market, the highest annual box office movie may be five or six billion. Box office.........but perhaps, the total box office of the Long Kingdom movie market that year was only 50 or 60 billion.

One work occupies one-tenth of the revenue of the entire market in one year But throughout the year, the Dragon Kingdom may produce thousands of movies...but those who lose hundreds of losses Movies, who cares?

In every corner of the magic city, there are many small animation studios that can't collect the cost after the animation works are made.

As for Chu Yu's, the per capita bonus of 100,000 yuan...may not be in those large-scale animation salaries.

Although Chu Yu himself felt that the money he made was not worth mentioning compared to what he earned, the employees felt that Chu Yu was a Buddha at this time. He could only sigh... The evil zbism!

A total of 70 or 80 people in the animation studio, anyway, in the end... Chu Yu can feel from the enthusiasm of the studio members who toast at the dinner, these people seem to really like him, their eyes look Seeing him are shining.

This night, everyone was very drunk, but Chu Yu, who had been prepared for a long time, booked a room at a nearby hotel before drinking, and asked a few girls who did not drink and the hotel attendant to help greet everyone before they went to sleep. Home..........

But anyway, the staff dinner has passed to the next day, and Chu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Early in the morning, Chu Yu got up and started his long-lost game time, with the keyboard crackling all the way.

Although there are still three or four days to celebrate the New Year, for Chu Yu, in 2023, his Lunar New Year of the Rabbit is over.

Whether it’s manga work or animation work, it’s all over.

In the next time, he can take a good rest for more than a week, being a salted fish essence, thinking about nothing, doing nothing, staying at home, lying down or playing games.
