MTL - My Animation Era-Chapter 19 change voice actor
Chapter 19 Replacing the Voice Actor
One thing surprised Gu Miao.
When talking about the animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", Ikeda clearly expressed his love for it.
In his words...
Although the production of this work is rough and full of various shortcomings, the ingenious storylines still attract him deeply.
This gave Gu Miao hope.
When he took the opportunity to propose that TBS could introduce this work and pass on the joy to more neon children, Ikeda said.
"Gu Sang..."
"I'm just an expatriate representative."
He shrugged and said, "I am not responsible for introducing foreign animations like this. And you should be clear, we have no shortage of animation programs."
This is true.
As a veteran TV station of Neon, TBS not only has rich animation copyrights, but also has very strong animation planning and production capabilities.
Their homemade animations are strong!
Under this premise, it is really not necessary to buy foreign animations to supplement the schedule.
"but…"
“No matter how good self-made animation is, it still costs money, right? And introducing “Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf” doesn’t cost you any money.”
Ah this!
As expected, Ikeda was moved.
Although TBS has no shortage of animation programs and has no idea of introducing "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", who can resist a free lunch?
Gu Miao understood.
It is very difficult to expect to sell overseas broadcasting rights to make a lot of money. That being the case, why not resort to the ultimate move of "free"?
Old T, do you want animation?
If you want it, I will send it to you. Not only will you not be charged, but I will also give you a few extra plush dolls!
TBS: "It's a deal!"
Hua people do not lie to Neon people!
After seeing off the contented Ikeda, Gu Miao then received several representatives from foreign TV stations who were very interested in the animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".
Not a single exception.
Like TBS’s Ikeda, they were all moved when they learned that the introduction of “Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf” didn’t cost a dollar, and they could even get plush dolls for free in the exhibition area.
Free lunch, who wouldn't want to eat it?
Although participating in the exhibition this time not only did not make any money, but instead included a lot of plush dolls, Gu Miao didn't feel distressed at all.
I can't bear to let the child fail the wolf!
Just as he was thinking about how much market share these foreign TV stations could gain, Ma Kui, who stayed at the company, called and reported a piece of troublesome news.
Something happened to the voice actor.
…
The dubbing team for the animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" has a total of seven people.
The voice actor who had the accident was named Tan Ai, and the character he dubbed was the beautiful sheep in the play. In addition to her part-time voiceover work, she is also a TV actress.
Situations like this are common.
The domestic dubbing industry is generally mostly part-time jobs, and only a small number of people really regard dubbing as their main business.
This is not the point.
The point is that Tan Ai, as a TV drama actor, is also a so-called "star entertainer". He was not very famous, so Gu Miao was able to hire him.
As a result, a few days ago, a costume TV series starring Tan Ai suddenly became popular. The supporting actress she played in the play was well received and loved by the audience.
To put it bluntly, she is on fire!
In the past, it was just a small transparency, and it could be done for tens of thousands of dollars. But now that she is popular, can she still afford this little money?
"What does she mean?"
Hurrying back to the company, Gu Miao asked Ma Kui, "I don't want to match anymore, or do you want to increase the price?"
"I don't want to match it anymore."
"She gave me the answer that she wanted to spare more time to polish and improve her acting skills." Ma Kui explained.
Shit!
Still honing his acting skills!
When there was no popularity before, couldn’t you spare time to participate in dubbing? Why can't time squeeze out after it becomes popular?
Gu Miao looked contemptuous.
This kind of person who behaves well when he is not popular, and who floats to the sky when he is popular, he has seen a lot in his previous life, and he can see through Tan Ai's true thoughts at a glance.
It's nothing more than the lack of money!
It is impossible to increase the price, Gu Miao will not compromise for this kind of person. Since she is not willing to match, then change.
"Ignore her, just replace her."
Gu Miao instructed: "Remember to find a more reliable voice actor this time. The core requirements are two points: I like animation dubbing from the bottom of my heart, and I have plenty of time."
Pleasant Goat has a long life cycle.
These voice actors will not be replaced at will for about ten years. For many voice actors, it is undoubtedly a great challenge.
After all, the time is too long.
No one can say for sure what will happen in the future.
Maybe people who still like animation dubbing now suddenly lose interest in this work after a few years?
Accidents always come unexpectedly.
Even the original version of Pleasant Goat has undergone many substitutions. Many characters, including Mei Yang Yang, Boiling Yang Yang and Red Wolf, have changed their voice actors halfway through.
The impact is sure to have some…
After all, after listening to the voice of a character for so long, the audience has already formed a stereotype. Suddenly changing the voice, the audience will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
But it's not a big problem.
I also felt awkward when the dubbing was just changed, but as time went by, I gradually got used to it.
After deciding to replace the voice actor of "Beautiful Goat", Gu Miao finalized a little girl from the list submitted by Ma Kui as the replacement according to the needs.
Then, he went to the Wanzhibao Toy Factory located in the suburbs.
The acquisition has been completed.
Taking over the key to the general manager's office, which symbolizes "authority" from Mr. Du, means that Gu Miao has become the new owner of Wanzhibao Toy Company.
This is just the beginning...
The problems facing Wanzhibao Toy Factory are far worse than he imagined.
Gu Miao, who took over the toy factory, the first task is to sort out the company's product line, cut off some old toy production indicators for elimination.
“Our company mainly produces plush toys, and this is the only product that maintains a competitive advantage.”
"besides…"
Walking in the production workshop, Director He of Wanzhibao Toys Factory introduced to Gu Miao: "Our factory also produces some products that are not sold well but have a good reputation."
"For example, soft rubber chess..."
Gu Miao has an impression of this product, because he also bought the soft rubber chess made by Wanzhibao Toy Factory, and he feels pretty good after playing.
The material of traditional chess is usually relatively hard, which is not suitable for children to play. The soft rubber chess produced by Wanzhibao is not only light in weight, but also not easy to break.
Excellent market reputation!
Unfortunately, there are too few children who like educational toys like chess and go. Although Wanzhibao has excellent product strength, its sales volume has not been high.
After all, the market share is so large.
People don’t like to play chess. No matter how good the product is, you still can’t sell it. This is a helpless reality.
