"President, this is the news I just received!" On this day, the president of the Careless Desserts Association, who was also an old friend of Ichiro Honda, had just consummated his relationship with a dark-skinned female high school student. He was comfortably enjoying a massage while dealing with business. This was a habit he had developed over the years, and his secretary had long since gotten used to it.
"What, my Honda brother actually cooperated with a convenience store!" Seeing the latest news, the president of the Careless Desserts Association showed a trace of surprise on his face, and then a look of disdain appeared on his face.
"This idiot, does he think that a few thousand convenience stores can compete with the hundreds of thousands of careless desserts shops in the country? Compete with the tens of millions of small customers of careless desserts shops? What an idiot, "the president snorted coldly, and then threw the news aside.
"Well, my good classmate, I originally just wanted to disgust you a little and take revenge on you for snitching to the teacher. But this time, you broke the rules yourself, so don't blame me for being heartless! " The president immediately ordered his secretary to pass the news to all the members of the Careless Desserts Association, telling them that the Pixie crispy noodle snacks product had been completely blacklisted by the association, and that from now on, no careless desserts shop was allowed to sell even a packet of Pixie crispy noodle snacks.
The other members of the association agreed to this order without hesitation, because this was the association's rule, and also a tradition that had been going on for decades.
Ever since the emergence of this monster that competed with careless desserts shops for market share, careless desserts shops and convenience stores were at loggerheads. Careless desserts shops had even created a rule that no careless desserts sold in convenience stores could be sold in careless desserts shops.
This rule had both advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage was that it provoked a lot of hatred, but the advantage was that it protected careless desserts shops' territory. Therefore, all the members agreed to the president's order without hesitation, and then the association passed an internal order, completely cutting off the possibility of Pixie crispy noodle snacks being sold in careless desserts shops.
"Ichiro Honda, you're dead meat!" Finally, the president said proudly. Then, with great interest, he decided to find another white-skinned female high school student to come over and continue to shine.
Because the animation was released in a hurry, and the Tokyo TV station, which was responsible for broadcasting the animation, didn't have good ratings. Although Tokyo TV Station had the word "Tokyo" in its name, just like the Imperial TV Station, it sounded very awesome.
But in fact, Fusang did not impose strict restrictions on the name of the city. The name Tokyo TV station was only registered by the station director at that time because it was established early.
After decades of development, it successfully became the poorest TV station among the six private TV stations in the Guandong region.
Because it was the poorest, there were very few TV programs that could be broadcast. The production was also very bad, so the number of viewers decreased. Under such a vicious cycle, Tokyo TV basically became the worst TV station in the Kanto region.
Originally, Ichiro Honda did not want to air the anime on Tokyo TV, but because the other TV stations' schedules were not suitable, they had already decided to air other anime and refused to give "Legend of the Three Kingdoms" a slot. Only Tokyo TV Station agreed to adjust their schedule because "Legend of the Three Kingdoms" only cost 100,000 yen per episode, which was almost the same price as giving it away for free.
However, this was also the late stage of Fusang TV Station spending money to buy anime in exchange for ratings.
After 2000, because the number of anime produced every season increased, and at the same time, anime BD and related products sold well, the TV stations no longer needed to spend money to buy anime. Instead, the animation production companies had to pay the TV stations to broadcast anime. Later, the price of buying anime slots became more and more expensive, and the animation production companies had no choice but to broadcast anime after 12 o 'clock in the morning. This was the reason why most of the anime were broadcast late at night.
In the future, Tokyo TV Station grew into a TV station that basically made a living by broadcasting anime. Half of the day, they broadcast all kinds of anime.
Ahem, back to the topic, because Tokyo TV Station could only broadcast to the Kanto region, Ichiro Honda had to contact six TV stations to barely cover the entire Fusang. However, because it was difficult to adjust the schedule, the broadcast time of the anime was not consistent.
The earliest to broadcast was Tokyo TV Station, which started at 8 o 'clock in the evening. The latest to broadcast was Hokkaido TV Station, which had to be delayed until 12 o 'clock in the morning.
It was not that Jia Yapeng did not want to find a TV station that could cover the whole Fusang, but Fusang did not have a TV station that could cover the whole country.
Even NHK, which was similar to CCTV in Fusang, did not have a TV station that covered the whole country. Instead, it was made up of NHK's local TV stations. NHK's programs were distributed to each NHK local TV station, and each local TV station decided on the time to broadcast these programs.
Therefore, it was possible that NHK in Tokyo would broadcast the morning news in the morning, and when it reached Hokkaido's NHK, it would become the evening news.
Anyway, this kind of thing was very ridiculous. Jia Yapeng was shocked when he heard about it for the first time. In the end, he could only find six different TV stations to cover the whole country and broadcast the anime on the 22nd.
Of course, the price of the anime was basically free. Each episode was only 100,000 yen. Otherwise, the TV stations would not be willing to broadcast it.
In fact, it was not only Fusang. On the 22nd of July, Hua Xia's CCTV also started to broadcast "Legend of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms."
However, in Hua Xia, in order to maintain the popularity, the name of "Legend of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" was changed to "Water Margin Heroes of the Three Kingdoms." Didn't this name sound very painful?
But it could not be helped. The popularity of the first two episodes of "Water Margin Heroes" was too high. "Legend of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" had to ride on the popularity. Otherwise, Jia Yapeng would be a fool.
On this day, most people in Hua Xia and Fusangpeople did not know that this was the first time in the history of Hua Xia and Fusang that the same anime was broadcasted at the same time. This was the first time in history that both countries broadcast the same anime at the same time.
At that time, this news was unknown, and not a single TV station or news media reported it. However, a few years later, when some Jia Yapeng enthusiasts frantically searched for Jia Yapeng's various histories, they were surprised to discover the story that had happened that day. Then, it shocked the world.
But then again, because Jia Yapeng's TV stations in Fusang were very small, the ratings were not high to begin with. In addition, "Legend of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" was rushed onto the shelves. There was not a lot of promotion in the early stages. At the same time, there was no original manga or novel. Therefore, when the first episode of the anime was broadcasted, it was quite bleak. It was said that the combined viewership of the entire country was only 0.37%. It was the lowest viewership of all the anime in the country at that time.
But even if it was only 0.37%, there were still hundreds of thousands of people in Fusang who watched the anime. These people, whether children or adults, were completely stunned.
Just like how the people of Hua Xia were shocked by the 60 second CG special effects of five million yuan, now the people of Fusang were shocked by the 60 second special effects that Jia Yapeng spent five million yuan to create.
This was the opening animation of the anime. It was also the most famous Battle of Red Cliffs in the Three Kingdoms. When the Fusang people saw more than 6,000 CG warships (in fact, only three were made, the others were copied and pasted) and Cao Cao's army of 800,000, they were all shocked.
Afterwards, he saw Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci, Xiahou Dun, Zhang He, Zhang Liao, and Xu Chu fighting in pairs. Finally, Kongming ascended the Eastern Wind Platform and summoned the wind and rain, borrowing the valiant east wind.
In the end, more than 2,000 small burning boats rushed towards the 6,000 large ships that were connected by iron chains, turning the entire river into a sea of fire. When countless soldiers fought, all the Fusang spectators were completely shocked.
It was the same feeling as when the people of the world first saw The Return of the King in The Lord of the Rings 3. The final scene of the battle between the Humans, the Undead, the Orcs, the Cavalry, the Elephant Soldiers, and so on was extremely realistic. Especially the last scene where the 8,000 Heavy Cavalry defeated the 100,000 Orcs. Everyone was completely shocked by the charm of the movie and the special effects.
At this time, the Fusang people were basically the same.
Just like the Hua Xia people who saw the F1 car turn into a mini 4WD car for the first time, the hundreds of thousands of Fusang people who lived in the first world were also ignorant. In the end, they knelt down and watched the CG animation.
On the contrary, the people of Hua Xia who saw the animation of "The Legend of the Three Kingdoms" calmed down a lot. After all, they had basically seen the opening CG of "The Four-wheel Kid". They had already experienced the baptism of special effects, so they were much calmer.
However, in less than a year, the people of Hua Xia couldn't hide their excitement when they saw the same special effects animation again. They couldn't help but spread the news, and "The Legend of the Three Kingdoms" once again became the most popular animation in the country.
