Chu Yu's reply attracted the attention of many fans who have been following his Weibo.

"Is it too late to run now? What does Teacher Shui Xin mean? Sure enough, will Five Centimeters Per Second end in a tear-jerking tragedy?"

"Above, don't be deceived. Didn't you see the funny expression behind Teacher Shui Xin? Teacher Shui Xin likes to play this kind of prank. It is obviously a depressing work, but he likes to say it is a healing work, while the real joy is towards

works, he likes to disguise them as depressing works.

, anyway, what Teacher Shui Xin said, the reverse interpretation of his words is that there are so many depressing works! Teacher Shui Xin is not a pervert, I am 90% sure that the third episode is about the reunion of Akari and Guishu.

, and then the two of them live a happy life without shame or shame."

"What I heard above seems to make sense, but I always feel that the way the plot is handled is a bit different from the teacher Shui Xin I knew before!"

"People will always change. After all, Teacher Shui Xin has already transformed from the talented comic book boy Xiang Ben San Uncle at the age of twenty. His views on love should also become more optimistic. Those who are separated by life and death are always

The love story makes us sad when we look at it, doesn’t Teacher Shui Xin feel uncomfortable when creating it?”

"That's right. It's just a pity that this work has such a good production and such a beautiful soundtrack, but this work only has three episodes? I can't bear to finish it!"

"Yes! Before watching Five Seconds, my understanding of good works was like The Frozen Witch and Summer City. The production costs are high. They hire big-name voice actors, promote them vigorously, and then burn money. But Five Centimeters Per Second is really a good one.

It overturned my perception that the average investment in the new animation released in January is only a medium investment, but in terms of the expressiveness of the graphics and the beautiful music, its other works are simply trash!"

"Perhaps this is the difference between people who are serious about making animations and those who just want to make money from animation! I saw Teacher Shui Xin and producer Huang Ming in an interview on the show before, saying that Teacher Shui Xin spent all the money he made from drawing comics in the past few years.

We put all our efforts into producing two short animations, Five Centimeters Per Second and Voice of the Stars.

Because all the money was invested in the production and there was no money for promotion, the popularity of this work was so low before it was broadcast. Fortunately, the quality of this work is there. Apart from the shortcomings of the length, it is definitely

One of the best youth love animations in recent years!"

"Why do you think people are so different from each other? Teacher Suixin is only twenty years old this year. It's Natsume's Book of Friends, it's Initial D, it's the previous Rurouni Kenshin Memories, and I haven't heard the name of the flower.

Now there’s 5 Centimeters per Second and a yet-to-be-released Voice of the Stars. According to rumors, the music for Unheard Flowers, Five Centimeters Per Second and Voice of the Stars were also provided by Teacher Shui Xin. Although these sounds mentioned by Teacher Shui Xin

Le commissioned a friend to order it, but for such a long time, no news has been revealed about his so-called friend. Anyway, many people now think that Teacher Shui Xin’s so-called friend should be himself. Looking at it this way

, whether it’s the animation or comics world, Mr. Shui Xin has performed so well, and he’s also stepped into the music world. Maybe he’s a genius!”

Chu Yu looked at the comments on Weibo with great interest.

Originally, when he replied, "It's still too late to leave now!", he wanted to give his fans a psychological inoculation.

He definitely doesn't want his fans to really leave without watching the final episode of Five Centimeters Per Second, but by saying this, he thinks the fans will be alert and suffer less harm when the time comes.

After all, over the years, he has been scolded by fans for being a big cheat, a man who tricked people into crying, and so on. He was also a little embarrassed.

But he didn't expect that his kind words would be so misunderstood by his fans that they were even ready to watch the third episode of Five Centimeters Per Second with joy, which made Chu Yu Wanwan

Unexpected.

Forget it, let them do it, it won't be me who gets hurt anyway.

A few days later, the broadcast schedule for the second episode of 5 Centimeters Per Second was revealed.

On Xinman.com, the most authoritative two-dimensional website in the Dragon Kingdom, among the audience ratings of animations broadcast in January, Five Centimeters Per Second is still the standout, with the rating not falling but increasing, reaching a score of 9.4

.

On the contrary, before the broadcast, the ratings of the so-called top four animations in January, which everyone was looking forward to, have declined to varying degrees two weeks after the broadcast, with ratings ranging from 8.1 to 8.8.

For many animation fans in Longguo, when they watch animation, they are not superstitious about big productions, big-name voice actors, or vigorous promotion. When they watch animation, they just watch what other viewers say about the work.

After all, everyone is very busy. Who has the time to watch animations for hours to judge whether your work is good or not? Is it a fairy grass? Many people choose animations to watch based on audience reviews and ratings.

Therefore, the high rating and reputation of the animation Five Centimeters Per Second has attracted many fans of this type of animation.

Therefore, the broadcast results of the second episode of Five Centimeters Per Second in the first week are undoubtedly much higher than those of the first episode, reaching 2.7 million. In addition, the first week also increased

A lot of views.

At the current speed of 5 centimeters per second, the total number of views across the entire network of the two episodes has reached 6.2 million.

To be honest, this data is not to mention that the major outside animation companies think it is outrageous. Even Huang Ming and other direct staff of Second Five Animation production also think it is outrageous.

So far, two weeks after it was aired, the work with the highest total views is The Frozen Witch, with 6.4 million views for two episodes, which translates to an average of 3.2 million views per episode. Based on experience

, if the follow-up plot of the witch does not seek death and causes the audience to abandon the show, the average number of views of this episode will gradually increase in the next three months of the broadcast of this work. Depending on the quality of the follow-up plot, industry insiders estimate that the frozen witch will

The final average playback volume of this work will be in the range of 4.5 million to 5 million.

But this is an achievement that Frozen Witch has spent a lot of money on the production and promotion of animation. From the animation recommendation that pops up when opening the website of Xinman.com, it can be seen that Dakai is very interested in this work.

A lot of money has definitely been invested in the work.

The production cost alone is basically 30 million, not counting publicity and advertising costs.

And why can your Five Centimeters Per Second be able to have more than 6 million views within two weeks of its launch? Are the funds and animation production team members of Dakai Animation Company not as good as your temporary animation team of Shui Xin and Huang Ming?

The other three works aired in January, such as Summer City, Merchant from Another World, and Washboard, are still struggling to reach 5 million views in total. Your Five Centimeters Per Second has quietly surpassed these three.

You are a big animation company, how can you make the staff of other animation companies feel embarrassed?

After all, this playback data also means that Huang Ming and Chu Yu’s 5 million investment has already paid back more than half. The remaining episodes of Second Five and the Voice of the Star will also have this playback volume in the next two weeks.

In terms of data, basically two weeks later, that is, after January, the investment of the two people has been paid back, and in February and March, this

The income generated from the broadcast of the two works will be pure profit. In April, three months after the four episodes of the animation are broadcast, the income will be very low after the four episodes of the animation are broadcast at reduced prices. But

Coupled with the income from peripherals, the sale of broadcast rights, and the sale of collector's edition Blu-ray discs, it is foreseeable that Chu Yu and Huang Ming should make a fortune.

In the Dragon Kingdom animation industry, there are very few examples of animation investments that can be recouped by relying solely on online broadcasts. Many animation works may not be able to recoup their investment even with the money from selling peripherals.
