My Animation Era
Chapter 883 Lord K, the villain who has the last laugh! (Please subscribe)
There are always people who do not believe in evil and feel that in cartoons, the villain cannot win and the protagonist cannot end up miserable.
Their logic is simple.
This kind of thing has never happened before, and it will never happen again...
Therefore, they always firmly believe that the successive tragedies in the middle and later stages of the animation "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" are just small disturbances in Xiao Fugui's life journey. As long as he survives it, the ending will be happy and satisfactory.
According to common sense, their judgment is very reasonable. After all, many animations and even movies and TV series are performed this way.
But this time, they were wrong.
Who says villains can't have the last laugh? Who says the protagonist has to get a happy ending?
The animation "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" uses the cruelest plot to reveal to the audience a truth that although they don't want to admit, it is a reflection of reality: good people may not necessarily be rewarded!
Xiao Fugui is so miserable.
The grandfather who spent all his efforts and efforts to save died on the day he became the royal chef.
Dou Sprout, a good friend who was each other's confidant and wanted to help, died a happy death under house arrest.
Whenever Xiao Fugui is in trouble, his right-hand man will always appear to help him. His beloved friend Xiao Feidi leaves him after seeing through the cruelty of Ouchi's palace.
There are also little bees and old doctors...
Everything that happened in the past was a bit too heavy for Xiao Fugui, a child who should have enjoyed a leisurely childhood.
When he became the chief royal chef, he was still thinking about using a dish to awaken the queen mother's love for the emperor, trying to help his good friend Bean Sprout escape from the sea of suffering.
However, it’s time to wake up from the dream!
Master K ruthlessly shattered Xiao Fugui's fantasy, and when he felt desperate, he told Xiao Fugui everything.
Lord K, this villain who made countless viewers hate him, originally thought he would be punished at the end. Who knew that at the end of the story, everyone only heard his wild and sarcastic laughter.
The laughter was too harsh.
The villain makes a mockery of the protagonist in front of everyone. In any animated work, this is undoubtedly an act of seeking death, and the protagonist will definitely be slapped in the face.
But this is Xiao Fugui, the magic chef...
As a powerful official in the court, even though Master K behaves extremely arrogantly, what can Xiao Fugui, a cook, do to him?
Powerless!
This was the first feeling that many viewers had when they saw Mr. K making fun and taunting him without any damage.
Oh my God, what kind of animation is this?
A great villain actually survived to the end of an anime that lasted for more than a hundred episodes? This wasn't the end yet, not only did he have the last laugh, he also teased and ridiculed the protagonist and his group.
Go back a few months.
When Xiao Fugui entered the palace for the first time, the person who received him and bathed and changed his clothes was Xiao Lizi. And when Xiao Fugui received Xiao Feidi's letter and prepared to accept the title of Chief Royal Chef the next day, it was also Xiao Lizi. Xiao Lizi bathed and changed clothes for him.
Little Plum.
This guy who was evil from beginning to end, was Lord K's right-hand man, and had done evil things to Xiao Fugui countless times, but at the end of the story, he behaved extremely kindly.
He knew in his heart that once Xiao Fugui left, he might never see him again.
As the saying goes, even a stone will become warm after being together for a long time, let alone a living person?
No matter what wrong things Xiao Lizi has done before, at least in the ending, he really wanted to save Xiao Fugui and couldn't bear to watch him die.
By chance, the old doctor came to deliver a medicinal recipe for the emperor to recuperate his body, and Xiao Lizi begged him to go and save Xiao Fugui.
Is this the right decision?
Judging from the results, Xiao Lizi's decision undoubtedly saved Xiao Fugui's life. After all, without the old doctor's risk of saving his life, Xiao Fugui would have been killed by the assassin sent by Lord K.
But thinking about it from another angle, although Xiao Lizi's decision saved his good friend Xiao Fugui, it also led to the death of the innocent old doctor.
If he really had that intention, why didn't he save Xiao Fugui himself? Why did he let the old doctor take action and cause the death of innocent people?
one way or another.
Xiao Fugui finally chose to take up the post and became the chief royal chef. According to tradition, he used eighteen pieces of gold kitchen utensils to prepare a royal meal for Lafayette.
This dish is called Mother and Son Love.
Xiao Fugui had no other wish. He only hoped to take care of Dou Sprout, who was under house arrest, and nurse him back to health. However, Master K had already anticipated this and blackmailed the emperor into writing an imperial edict in advance.
The content of the imperial edict is very simple. The emperor said that he does not need Xiao Fugui's care or to take care of his body...
At this time, the news of the death of the old lady came, and everything became clear.
Lafayette knew the truth, but it was impossible for him to turn against the minister for a cook. Master K was even more proud at this time and simply told Xiao Fugui everything, as if asking him: How can you, a cook, fight with me?
"Xiao Fugui, the palace is sinister and ruthless, with many right and wrongs. It is definitely not a place for you to stay for a long time!"
The instructions in Xiao Feidi's letter, as well as the hidden code of "leave the palace immediately" written by the emperor, made Xiao Fugui realize everything.
He seemed crazy.
Yes, in the eyes of ordinary people, Xiao Fugui was no different from a lunatic at this time. He gave up his official position as chief royal chef and resolutely walked out of the palace gate under the sunset.
On the other side, Xiao Lizi, after completing all the tasks of Lord K, thought he would see his parents, but he learned that his parents were actually dead long ago, and they starved to death...
The ruthless and sinister nature of the deep palace and the decay of the late Qing Dynasty were clearly revealed at this moment.
No flowers and no applause.
Little Fugui, riding a horse, walked slowly towards the sunset under the guidance of a butterfly.
The story of the animation "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" ends here.
Although the animation has ended, the inner harm caused by this ending to the audience continues to ferment on the Internet, and even intensifies.
…
"I cried to death. The old lady was such a good doctor, but she died to save little Fugui?"
"I cried like a dog all night. Xiao Lizi has done so many bad things for Master K for his parents, but in the end he learned such news. Who can bear this?"
"The one who feels the most distressed is Xiao Fugui, right? What he was like when he entered the palace is the same as when he left the palace. The only difference is that the people around him are dying and walking away, and he has become lonelier."
"Zhuo! The family has solved the case. The producer and special consultant of this animation is Gu Miao. He must have done something good. Let me flush him out..."
"It's unbelievable that the villain actually had the last laugh. Although the protagonist saved his life, it was more uncomfortable than death. This animation really refreshed my understanding."
Who says it's not?
As the ending of the animation "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" aired, more and more viewers began to express their opinions online. The general consensus was that it was too unexpected.
The villain actually won?
Who dares to believe this!
It’s not clear whether the children cried or not after watching the ending. Anyway, some of the adult viewers were depressed after watching the ending.
Still can't accept it...
It is obviously such a funny animation. The play between Xiao Lizi and Xiao Fugui in the early stage made everyone so happy. How come the ending is so sad?
This twist is a bit like Super Beast Arms, but with a twist.
The amazing turn of the Super Beast Arms is a shocking feeling that makes people’s eyes light up and call them good guys.
The twist in the plot of "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" makes people's eyes dark. One second they were celebrating a happy event, and the next second bad news came, the white silk was hung up, and the wedding scene instantly turned into a funeral.
General audiences are fine.
Although this ending is somewhat heartbreaking and tearful, it is also expected.
After all, so many people had died before, and many viewers were already mentally prepared, guessing that the ending would probably be a tragedy.
But people like Liu Zida, who swore that the ending would be happy, not only had their faces swollen, but were also shocked and speechless by the ending.
what's the situation?
Why don't you play according to the routine?
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't we make a Happyend at this time to make everyone happy and look forward to the second season?
If you do this, it won't matter if everyone's face gets swollen. These video bloggers who rely on the Internet don't care about face-saving things.
But the key is...
This ending makes it clear that there will be no follow-up. What did the producers think? You really just want to play it once and then dodge people. Are you not going to make "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" into a series?
"Made into a series? How dare you think about it!"
Seeing the doubts raised by some netizens, Gu Miao and Hou Bin both laughed.
From the very beginning of the project of "Master Chef Xiao Fu Gui", it was clearly pointed out that this is a non-series single product with no sequel. A sequel that Wanbao himself had not considered, but was arranged by netizens.
This is different from Xiaodangjia.
The reason why Little Master can get a sequel is, on the one hand, because the story is indeed not finished and there is room for further expansion. On the other hand, it is also because, for animations like this that use cooking competitions as their selling point, it is easy to launch a sequel.
But Xiao Fugui's story has been told completely through this animation, and there is no room for expansion.
If there is really going to be a sequel, it will be unless Xiao Fugui ascends to another world, starts all over again, starts cooking for the Queen Mother in another world, and continues to work hard as the chief royal chef.
But this doesn't make sense logically.
Because Xiao Fugui cooks for his grandfather. Since his grandfather is dead, he can't come back from the dead, travel to another world and continue to be arrested, and then expect his grandson to come to another world to cook and save him, right?
That’s too abstract and nonsense!
Putting aside all these, it is absolutely impossible for an animation like "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" with a complete story and a plot that has both continuity and transition to have a sequel.
If there is indeed a sequel, there is no doubt that it is definitely the copyright holder's fault for looking too ugly and using it to make money and sell feelings.
"You're right, there won't be a sequel."
Hou Bin agreed: "At this point, the story is considered complete. If we make a sequel, it will be to gild the lily and add more to the poisonous snake."
This sounds a bit familiar!
Gu Miao glanced at Hou Bin, but she didn't expect that this guy was quite sober and not dazzled by the achievements of "Master Chef Xiao Fugui", which was very rare.
Some animation producers are just not clear-headed and are dazzled by the temporary success. When they see the animation becoming popular, they recklessly announce the series and launch various sequels, which is just a waste of money.
That's definitely something wrong with your brain!
Do you really think that any animation or any work can be "serialized"? Blindly filming a sequel will not only disgust the audience and fans, but also disgust yourself.
Gu Miao would not do such stupid things, and Hou Bin was not the kind of person who would do anything to make money.
the most important is……
The producer of the animation "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" is called "Jiangchuan Wanbao Animation Co., Ltd." This is Wanbao!
Wanbao owns so many popular anime IPs, some of which are more popular than Chef Xiaofugui, and are more suitable for serialization. There are too many sequel projects to handle, so why bother doing such a disgusting thing?
Let’s take a step back.
Even if Gu Miao and Hou Bin really fall in the eyes of money, they feel that Master Chef Xiao Fugui is very popular and insist on making a sequel to this animated dog-tailed Diao.
Excuse me!
Within Wanbao Animation, there are countless similar sequel projects, Xiao Fugui, right? Obediently get your number and queue up. If you wait four to five years, it might be your turn to release a sequel.
…
Money is the key, everything else is just advertising!
No matter how good "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" is praised by netizens, or how explosive the ending of the animation is, for Gu Miao, there is only one criterion for judging the success or failure of a project.
That is, profitability!
The purpose of starting a company is not to do charity. As an animation company, its animation works are naturally responsible for making money for the company.
In some cases, the two data of ratings and network broadcast volume can even be ignored, and just look at how much money the animation earned when it was completed.
Chef Xiao Fugui’s performance was average.
This kind of average does not refer to average ratings or broadcast volume, but refers to profitability.
Since peripheral derivatives are difficult to produce and sell, this animation relies more on the sale of broadcast rights, which is commonly known in the industry as "ministry guarantee."
With more than 100 episodes of animation, it is indeed a bit shabby to rely solely on broadcast rights and advertising revenue.
Even if you include the policy subsidies, it's not much. The total profit from the entire "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" animation project is not even as much as a set of stationery from "Dragon Ball Z".
Yes, it’s that outrageous!
At a time when the animation "Dragon Ball Z" is becoming a global hit, Wanbao cooperates with a local stationery company in Jiangchuan to launch a complete set of Dragon Ball-derived stationery.
Gel pens, pencils, watercolor pens, pencil cases, compasses, erasers, rulers, pencil sharpeners, notebooks, etc...
Something that seems unremarkable at first glance.
But for this set of stationery peripherals, global sales in the first quarter from January to April this year exceeded 1.05 billion yuan.
To put it harshly, the money earned from making a "Master Chef Xiao Fu Gui" may not be as much as a co-branded pencil case of "Dragon Ball Z". It would be embarrassing to spread the word.
“After all, I’m making money.”
"No matter how much you earn, it's a good thing if you can make money." Lao Zhang said with a smile, "Don't always use "Dragon Ball" to pressure Hou Bin, Huang Kun and others. Dragon Ball is a work that can only be encountered but not sought."
"I got you……"
Gu Miao broke the defense and returned to breaking the defense, but she would not be angry with Hou Bin for such a trivial matter.
Lao Zhang is right. There are few works in the world that are as popular as Dragon Ball. It is unfair to compare them.
