October quietly came to an end, and November arrived. The weather turned colder, and people on the streets gradually started bundling up in down jackets!
By now, the box office shares from The Sound of the Waves and Your Name had begun rolling in, and their online releases had also gone live one after another!
The Sound of the Waves had earned more than 700 million from ticket sales alone, while Your Name had another digit added to that figure: 1.7 billion. This meant a massive windfall for GT Animation Company!
When Chu Yu had acquired Tianxing, he had nearly drained GT's accounts. But the earnings from Fullmetal Alchemist, Your Name, and The Sound of the Waves were simply staggering. GT's funds went from being nearly depleted to overflowing again, climbing past four billion!
GT might still have been a fair bit smaller than Tianxing in terms of overall scale, but when it came to the money in their accounts, GT blew Tianxing out of the water!
Tianxing had invested more than a billion this year, but it wouldn't see a return on those investments until next year at the earliest.
Meanwhile, under Su Ruo's leadership, GT's more than six hundred employees had received huge performance bonuses. News of it had even made its way from Japanese media to the Mainland, leaving countless people in the animation industry green with envy!
These days, the two richest companies in the Dragon Country Animation Industry were GT and Tianxing, and they were famous throughout the industry!
Tianxing might not have turned a profit, but everyone knew Chu Yu's track record. He wasn't the stingy type. GT had been loaded for years, too. If both companies weren't so strict about their hiring, hardly anyone in the industry wouldn't want to jump ship and
