Crazy Entertainment System

"Damn it, they're asking me for money again. I shouldn't have started this Weibo account. It's a bloodsucker. I haven't earned a single penny, but I keep throwing money into it," Chen Yu thought to himself.

"This is just the beginning, okay? Once things develop well in the future, the money will flow into your pockets like water," Xiaoyou said with a smile.

"That's for later, not now. Right now, I have to worry about money." Chen Yu pouted, completely losing his temper with this little girl who was standing, no—flying—talking so casually without any sense of hardship.

"Cheer up! Let's try our luck in the lottery. Who knows, we might win a fortune!" Xiao You laughed.

Chen Yu then remembered that he still had one lottery draw left to do!

"Then let's draw!" Chen Yu nodded and said.

The next moment, the familiar lottery wheel appeared.

"Xiaoyou, can you tell me why this thing feels more refined?! And what's with the lottery options changing from six to eight?!" Chen Yu asked curiously, looking at the roulette wheel that seemed both familiar and different.

It's best to understand the lottery beforehand, otherwise you'll be the one who suffers the loss.

However, it seems that even if you know you're going to suffer a loss, you still have to suffer a loss.

Don't try to take advantage of this system; don't always cause trouble.

"That's because your status and position are different now, and the lottery wheel and the quality of the prizes you're using have also changed, so naturally you have to make some adaptive changes."

"Eight choices, isn't that perfect? ​​With eight options, the chance of missing out is much lower," Xiaoyou explained calmly.

Chen Yu was speechless at Xiao You's explanation.

Chen Yu looked at the roulette wheel, wanting to see what the prizes would be.

"99 yuan!" This was the thing that caught Chen Yu's eye, something he had a deep connection with.

"No, Xiaoyou, is this what you mean by 'higher class, higher prize'?! Last time it was 100 yuan, and this time you won't even give me 100 yuan!"

Chen Yu was speechless; this system was just too bizarre.

"Oh, this is normal. It's a step up in terms of class, but it's still better than nothing!" Xiao You's far-fetched explanation made Chen Yu want to punch her.

He was already cursing in his heart.

"Damn it, this is better than nothing. Isn't this blatant rip-off? Just like those merchants who claim the final interpretation right belongs to their company, they can just find any excuse to fob people off."

Although Chen Yu was very dissatisfied and wanted to complain, he ultimately gave up. "Damn it, who am I supposed to complain to?!"

Continue to patiently look at the other prize draw details.

Next to the 99 yuan item is "One More Time," followed by, in order, a singing skill upgrade coupon, a lucky bread, a thank you for using it, an anime generator, and a ukulele D+ level skill card!

Chen Yu understood everything else, but what the heck was this anime generator?!

Could it be mass production machines?

"Xiao You, explain this anime generator to me." Chen Yu went directly to his "spokesperson"—Xiao You.

"Anime generators can generate anime based on real-world works, like Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, where each fan's value is 5 seconds."

In normal 2D animation, one fan value is awarded per second, while in 3D animation, five fan values ​​are awarded per second.

For example, a product like Kung Fu Panda has a value of 20 fans per second.

If it's a promotional CG video for a large-scale single-player game, 100 followers are worth one second.

"If you work ten hours at once, you can get a 20% discount," Xiaoyou explained.

Chen Yu glanced at his 293 million follower count and made a mental estimate.

It can produce up to 8 hours of CG.

Forty hours of animation with the same quality as "Kung Fu Panda".

If it were a 2-hour CG movie, it would probably get a lot of box office revenue.

However, Chen Yu dared not, because he had to consider the difficulty of production.

CG production is currently very expensive.

Chen Yu shook his head. Why think so much? It's not even certain whether he'll get it. What if he gets the 99 yuan that doesn't even give out 100 yuan?!

"let's start!"

"Stop!" Chen Yu only saw a flash of light, and then the turntable disappeared.

"What? Tell me!" Chen Yu was also looking forward to it. He could see it before, but now he couldn't.

"If I said it was 99 yuan, would you believe me?!" Xiao You looked at Chen Yu expressionlessly and said calmly.

"I believe you!" Chen Yu said through gritted teeth, as if he wanted to devour Xiao You.

"Just kidding. I got the Anime Maker!" Xiaoyou said with a grin, pursing her lips.

"I knew it!" In fact, Chen Yu had already had a plan in mind. Knowing the system's temperament, it would definitely try to trick him during this lottery.

Of all these lottery options, only the Anime Maker can trick him.

And they really screwed him over.

"How about a comic book script? Give it a try~" Xiaoyou started her sales campaign again.

"How many fans does Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf have?" Chen Yu thought of the legendary cartoon Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf from his previous life. This masterpiece had nearly 2000 episodes.

This is enough to sweep away all other anime on the market; even the top Japanese anime, "Crayon Shin-chan," pales in comparison.

The cartoon itself didn't make much money, but its derivative products have generated considerable value.

"The package deal of 120 million fans is worth it!" Xiaoyou said.

"How much?!" Chen Yu was stunned. This is outrageous! 120 million right off the bat—is this robbery?!

"No, this is a very cheap price. You know, there are a total of 2480 episodes of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf plus 20 feature movies."

This price is really not high. Each episode of these 2480 animated series is about 14 minutes long, so it's only worth about 50 fans.

In other words, 170 million fan points can get you 2480 episodes of anime, what are you waiting for?! Xiaoyou laughed.

Chen Yu was speechless. 2480 episodes, just thinking about it is terrifying.

In the current market, the price for a single episode of a domestically produced cartoon is only around 2 to 3 yuan.

However, the cost of one episode of such a cartoon in China is around 15 yuan.

This is also the main reason why Chinese animation has failed to develop.

It's because the price offered was too low.

The reason why so many companies still participate is because the government provides subsidies.

政府扶持国产动画产业的规则多是从产量、技术水平、播出平台、获得奖项这几个标准核定。比如很多省市对本地动画企业补贴标准都是：地市电视台播出2d动画奖励500元/分钟，3d动画奖励1000元/分钟，上限为100万元；在央视播出的翻倍，上限为200万元。

Forget it, let Gao Feiyan handle this. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

The price per episode is too low.
