There was a famous saying in the animation industry.
If you see a work that you like, you should buy three copies.
One of them was for him to read, another was for him to keep, and the last one was for him to share with others.
Tanaka Keiichi had perfectly demonstrated this saying. The next day, he went to Guangying Supermarket and bought 11 copies. Tanaka Keiichi did not even want to open the packaging of one copy. He wanted to keep it for the rest of his life. The other 10 copies were all for his colleagues to recommend to others.
Tanaka Keiichi knew that there were many animation colleagues in the editorial department. They would be moved to tears by this work.
Tanaka Keiichi did not know if his recommendation was successful, but the chief editor obviously knew. He angrily called Tanaka Keiichi over. But before he could scold him, Tanaka Keiichi directly placed a DVD of Treasured Lotus Lantern on the chief editor's desk.
"Are you going to recommend it to me as well?" The chief editor asked coldly.
"Huh … Chief Editor, are you interested in this movie too?" Tanaka Keiichi asked foolishly. The chief editor was so angry that he wanted to flip out on the spot. But Tanaka Keiichi quickly said, "Chief Editor, I found a big news!"
"What big news?" The chief editor was so angry that he laughed. This fellow, did he think that he could change the topic and let him off the hook?
"The DVD of Treasured Lotus Lantern, that's it. It was just released yesterday, and it has sold more than a million copies. It broke the record of all animation DVDs!" Tanaka Keiichi said excitedly.
"What? A million copies? Is this for real?!" The chief editor was shocked. Their magazine was a cultural film magazine, and there was also an animation section. So, the chief editor knew a lot about animation and movies.
Currently, the best animation film in Fusang was Hayao Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke. Not only did it create a miracle in Fusang, but it also sold 1.98 million copies. It was the number one animation film in Fusang.
But it sold a million copies on the first day of its release. This was too exaggerated. Even if Hayao Miyazaki did it personally, he could not achieve such results!
"Is this information accurate?" the chief editor asked.
"It's absolutely accurate. After I returned to the company, I checked Guangying Entertainment's monthly DVD sales ranking. The Treasured Lotus Lantern's results are there. It started selling at 10 am yesterday. Within a day, one million copies were sold. These are all recorded in Guangying Entertainment's official database. They won't fake it!" Tanaka Kei said with certainty.
"Well, since it was announced by Guangying Entertainment, it can't be fake. But this is too scary. One million copies in a day, but I've never heard of the name of this movie!" The editor-in-chief picked up the DVD and began to study it carefully, reading every detail on it.
"Dynasty Animation … No wonder. It's not strange that it's theirs … But who is this Dai Tielang?" The chief editor looked at the information on the disc and asked in confusion.
"Dai Tielang is one of the best animators in the world …" Keiichi Tanaka hesitated for a moment, then said, "I used to think so, but after watching the Treasured Lotus Lamp, I think one of them can be removed."
"What! You think that even Hayao Miyazaki … "The chief editor was shocked. Hayao Miyazaki was the god of Fusang Animation. He was a big shot who sat high on the throne. No media dared to criticize or slander him. Yet, Keiichi Tanaka said that a Hua Xia person could surpass Hayao Miyazaki. This was simply outrageous!
"Well, I'm not saying that Master Dai Tielang is better than Master Hayao Miyazaki. But just based on the Treasured Lotus Lantern movie, unless Master Hayao Miyazaki can make another movie that surpasses all his previous works, the Treasured Lotus Lantern is worthy of being called the best movie in the world!
"This is crazy!" The chief editor wiped the sweat off his forehead. Then, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
Well, the chief editor seemed to have forgotten that he was the one who called Keiichi Tanaka in.
But it didn't matter. In fact, Keiichi Tanaka had wanted to look for the chief editor since the beginning.
"This is big news. Of course, we have to report this news!" Keiichi Tanaka said excitedly. "This is such an excellent and perfect animated movie. It actually did so little when it was released. This is a disgrace to all of us.
"I think you just want to promote …" The editor-in-chief lampooned. If it were any other time, he would have chased Tanaka Keiichi out. However, a million sales figure in a day was indeed big news. He definitely couldn't miss it!
"And I'm very familiar with Master Dai Tielang. I think that the entire Fusang doesn't understand Master Dai Tielang. So, I've already prepared a report about Master Dai Tielang. I can publish it as soon as possible and beat all the media!" Keiichi Tanaka said excitedly.
"Really!" The chief editor was also excited. A million sales was definitely big news. However, there weren't many people in Fusang who knew or understood Dai Tielang. If his magazine could be the first to publish a professional report about it, it would be great!
Moreover, Dai Tielang and Miyazaki were both masters. Once this title was published, it would definitely cause a huge controversy. This couldn't be better … The media was never afraid of controversial articles and reports. As long as the report wasn't fabricated and had a certain basis, it would be a great opportunity for the media to make a name for themselves.
"It seems that I have to rely on this guy!" The chief editor looked at the excited Keiichi Tanaka and muttered unhappily.
Now, the only person in Fusang who knew Dai Tielang in detail was Keiichi Tanaka. This was also the reason why Keiichi Tanaka was kept in the editorial department by the chief editor even though he often did some unreliable things. At most, he would be reprimanded. It was because Keiichi Tanaka had abilities that no one else had.
"Okay, go ahead and write. As long as it's good, we'll publish it as soon as possible!" The chief editor patted Keiichi Tanaka's shoulder and encouraged him.
"Yes!"

Keiichi Tanaka was very fast. He passed the revised draft to the chief editor in the afternoon.
When the chief editor saw the draft, he was amazed. It couldn't be any more explosive. The first thing he said was that Dai Tielang was an international animation master who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Miyazaki Hayao.
Then, he started to introduce Dai Trang's previous works. The chief editor only found out after reading it that almost all the famous animations in Dynasty were done by Dai Tielang behind the scenes. Dai Tielang was also the teacher of the richest man in Hua Xia, Jia Yapeng. He was the kind of teacher that Jia Yapeng would kneel down when he saw him.
This was too shocking. This article would definitely go viral!
