Chapter 451 The Greatest Luck in the World
After attending the awards ceremony of the Media Art Festival of the Cultural Affairs Agency, 2019 soon arrived.
“Your Name” was released on June 8, 2018. After entering 2019, it lasted for more than two months, and it was released in full on March 7.
With the help of the news of Makoto Takagi’s closing pen, plus the last wave of movie watching activities in the Yuan Guan, in fact, the box office had reached 30 billion in February.
On the day it was released on March 7, Takagi Makoto paid special attention to it, and the box office was 30.18 billion yen.
There is indeed a big gap between the 36.8 billion of “Children of the Sea”, which is the No. 1 box office, but this box office is already firmly established as the No. 2 box office in the island country’s film market.
The island nation’s second 30 billion yen box office animation film, this honor also makes people talk about it. Although there may be a second, third or even more in the future, this honor is also enough to be included in the island nation. Annals of animation history or film history.
On the second day of the release, DOS held a celebration banquet.
The DOS people, the Baige people, the Yuanguan people, the voice actors… Basically all the people who participated in the production of this animation attended the celebration banquet.
Naturally, Makoto Takagi was not absent, and as the president of DOS and the supervisor of “Your Name”, he gave an opening speech. The content is probably, “Your Name” can achieve such a result, how difficult it is, thank you for your support , And then look forward to the future.
Although he has decided to close the pen and no longer do animations since then, there are still many outstanding talents in DOS, and there will definitely be animations with a box office of 30 billion or more in the future.
After the opening speech, all kinds of people came to toast, one by one, saying congratulations while saying what a pity.
Congratulations to “Your Name” for such a huge success, but it is a pity that Makoto Takagi will not do animation anymore.
In fact, it is very early to say the success of “Your Name”, because it is only a box office success.
In two months, animated DVDs and BDs will be on sale, and it is certain that the sales will exceed one million by that time.
Breaking one million copies, not one million yen, because animated movies are different from TV animations. There are several volumes of TV animation, and one volume is often two or three. It is the average volume sales, and there are not so many animated movies. The department is just one copy. In this case, more people will buy it.
It’s easy to say that “Your Name” has a box office of over 30 billion, and the sales of DVD and BD have exceeded one million copies. It’s just that no one can say how many copies can be obtained.
In addition, with the popularity of animated films, original novels, and peripheral souvenirs, these have also sold very well. After the movie was released for a few months, the peripheral souvenirs alone sold for tens of billions.
It can be said that the economic gains created by “Your Name” are at least 100 billion, but the economic gains of 100 billion does not mean that DOS can be accounted for hundreds of billions. What really belongs to DOS is probably only 20 to 30 billion. .
In any case, this animated film was really successful, so when Takagi was happy, he almost drank too much. Fortunately, he also knew that many people would come to toast, so he told Esaka Noe in advance and asked Esaka Noe to call him. Phone, then answered the phone with an excuse, slipped away.
Out of the banquet hall, after answering the phone, Takagi Makoto did not go back, but to find a place to sit down, while waiting for the wine to wake up, silently thinking about life, until he turned his head, I don’t know when there was another one next to him. The person is actually Akino Kawano.
“Miss Mingnai, why did you come out?” Takagi Cheng asked in a daze.
Akino Kawano didn’t answer, but said, “Seeing you drink a lot, are you okay?”
“It’s okay, I’m not drunk yet.” Takagi Makoto replied, “The main thing is that I won’t do animation anymore. This will probably be the last celebration party with me as the core.”
It is not that DOS will not hold celebration banquets in the future, but DOS celebration banquets are generally based on supervision. In the future, Takagi will no longer serve as a supervisor. Then, naturally it will be the last celebration with him as the core. feast.
The success of “Your Name” is one thing, but the last celebration with him at the core will naturally make more people come to toast.
Because it is the last one, it is inevitable to drink more.
“The last one?”
Kawano Akino was also very emotional, “I want to participate in your DOS celebration party for the first time that year. I never thought that DOS could grow to this scale in more than ten years, and I didn’t expect you to personally achieve this. Achievement, after thinking about it, I felt that I did not choose ABK’s “Love Academy” project, but chose CL. It was really the right choice.”
Takagi Makoto was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a lot of memories came out.
Just like Kawano Akino was lucky to choose CL, he was also very fortunate that he was looking for Kawano Akino’s investment at the beginning. Fortunately, even if Kawano Akino lost his position, he still chose to cooperate with Kawano Akino.
It’s not that you won’t be able to succeed if you change a partner. As a traverser, you may not have a smooth start if you have a memory hanger, but you will be able to achieve success sooner or later.
However, if you really change a partner, you will definitely not be able to cooperate so smoothly. There will definitely be various troubles that he needs to deal with, so that you can’t focus all your energy on animation.
If this happens, there will definitely be many regrets along the way. Maybe the sales of Puella Magi Madoka Magica will not be so high, and it will not become a super phenomenon, or your name may even hit 100 at the box office. It is less than 100 million, and it may not even be possible to do a good job of CL at the beginning.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but said: “Miss Ming Nai, meeting you is my greatest luck in this world.”
Akino Kawano blinked, “Isn’t the greatest luck meeting your wife?”
“no.”
Takagi shook his head slightly, “She is just the little luck in my life.”
If you didn’t meet Esaka Noe, then Takagi Makoto would definitely lose a lot of happiness, and he would not be as happy as he is now, but his life trajectory would certainly not change much.
And if he hadn’t met Kawano Akino, his life trajectory would not be what it is now.
Therefore, meeting Esaka Noe is just a little luck in life, but meeting Kawano Akino is his greatest luck in this world.
Nothing wrong.
Kawano Akino originally thought that Makoto Takagi just said it casually after drinking, or maybe the “biggest luck” was the conclusion that Esaka Noe was excluded, but he didn’t expect it to be.
She was silent for a while, then glanced at Takagi Makoto, and then whispered, “Me too.”
