"Guys, what are you talking about, it seems to be very lively. The man with the big back asked as if he were familiar.

"We don't welcome uninvited guests. Hiroshi Wakao said with a cold face.

The man with the big back smiled, looked at Qin Han, and stretched out his hand: "This is Teacher Qin Han, I have admired your name for a long time." When I saw it today, I was really young and promising. If your work is going to be changed into animation in the future, we may have a chance to work together. ”

"Are you ......" Qin Han stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.

"In Shimookada Hiroshi, the head of Toei Animation's Okawa Production Studio. The man with the big back said triumphantly.

"It's a blessing. Qin Han said politely.

Hiroshi Okada said again: "Back then, I was also a member of the insect production, and I was born at the same time as Maruyama-san and Wakao-san. After the bankruptcy of Insect Production, I entered Toei, and I am very glad that you have gained a foothold in the animation industry. Especially Brother Wakao, now that he is finally qualified to produce animation independently, it is infinitely gratifying. ”

As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit the smiling person. Hiroshi Wakao saw Hiroshi Okada smiling and saying good things, and he didn't have a seizure, so he just nodded stiffly.

Qin Han saw that the relationship between the two sides was not harmonious, so he didn't say anything, just quietly observed.

"I just heard that you're going to make an animation with a magical girl theme?" asked Hiroshi Okada.

"Yes, so what?"

"It's a coincidence, I've been working on a magical girl anime recently. Hiroshi Okada smiled, the expression on his face half smug, half sarcastic.

He pointed to Naoko Takeuchi in the distance: "We, Toei, have already negotiated with Miss Takeuchi and successfully won the authorization for the anime adaptation of "Sailor Moon". If everyone starts work at the same time, maybe SHAFT's magical girl animation will be released on the same schedule as "Sailor Moon". I'm really looking forward to it, I hope SHAFT can hold on and don't lose too badly, haha!"

"You ......" Seeing that Hiroshi Okada was so arrogant and looked down on his company, Hiroshi Wakao was so angry that his face turned pale.

Maruyama Masao next to him hurriedly pulled him down, for fear that his friend couldn't help but move roughly, and it would be difficult to clean up.

Hiroshi Okada glanced contemptuously at Hiroshi Wakao.

In his opinion, this former insect production colleague is not very good now, and the animation company he founded can only take on the rough work of outsourcing coloring, which belongs to the bottom of the animation industry chain. Coupled with some grievances and grievances back then, Okada Hao couldn't help but come over and mock a few words.

Okada Hao looked at Qin Han again: "Teacher Qin Han, your talent in drawing comics is indeed amazing, but your vision is not very good." Working with SHAFT, I couldn't make any good animations. It's better to get out as soon as possible, lest you make a garbage work and ruin your reputation when the time comes. ”

"Thanks for the advice, but I know what I'm doing and I don't need to be taught. Mr. Okada, let's take care of myself first. Qin Han said.

"Well, I hope you don't regret it. We at Toei are looking forward to working with you. Hiroshi Okada smiled and walked away.

At this time, Umezu Taichen, who had been holding back for a long time, asked, "Maruyama-san, what's the matter with this Okada Hiroshi, why is it so annoying?"

Maruyama Masao sighed: "It's all a grudge that was formed before. ”

Hiroshi Okada likes to be pompous and bragging, but he doesn't do practical things, and when he was still making insects, many people couldn't get used to his style, and privately called Hiroshi Okada 'an Indian wearing Dongying skin'.

Hiroshi Okada, Hiroshi Wakao, Maruyama Masao and others were only personal grudges at that time. However, after the insect production went bankrupt, this discord gradually intensified.

The fuse comes from Hayao Miyazaki and Osamu Tezuka, two great gods in the Toei anime industry.

Hayao Miyazaki also worked in insect production, and the conflict between him and Osamu Tezuka mainly stemmed from the conflict between social positions and ideas.

In his previous life, Miyazaki was a staunch leftist, SH-ist, and also served as a guild secretary, and he paid great attention to the interests of labor.

At that time, in order to promote animation on TV, Osamu Tezuka greatly reduced production costs. In doing so, although the animation industry has prospered, watching animation has become a popular entertainment. But this prosperity only fattened the businessmen and capitalists, while the front-line animation production employees were squeezed very badly.

In the 21st century, the low-level employees of the animation industry are barely able to make ends meet, and the work intensity is particularly high, which is becoming more and more intense. This has also led to a serious brain drain in the Dongying animation industry, and there is not much fresh blood to replenish. Many "people of insight" have shouted: It's all Tezuka's fault back then, the industry's pills.

It is obviously unfair to blame Osamu Tezuka for the chaos that has been in the industry for decades. No matter how great the god of comics is, it is the capitalists who ultimately determine the direction of an industry.

But some, like Miyazaki, don't see it that way.

As a left-wing progressive, his position is naturally on the side of the working class. He believes that it was Osamu Tezuka's "collusion" with the capitalists that led to the serious exploitation of the animation industry and the difficult survival of employees, so the contradictions with him became more and more intensified.

Even when Osamu Tezuka passed away, Miyazaki wrote a eulogy to criticize this old enemy, what kind of hatred and resentment.

However, the irony is that Hayao Miyazaki's Studio Ghibli often broke the gossip that the working environment was harsh and oppressed employees.

In this parallel world, although the political environment has changed, Osamu Tezuka and Hayao Miyazaki still have irreconcilable conceptual contradictions.

After the insect production went bankrupt, Hiroshi Okada, who had been taken care of a lot by Osamu Tezuka, turned back and often criticized Osamu Tezuka in public. Because of this, he was appreciated by Hayao Miyazaki, participated in the production of the smash hit "Girl in the Alps", and entered Toei Animation with this qualification.

Although Dongying has had a tradition of going down to the enemy since ancient times, it is not a problem to turn his back on the enemy and take revenge or something. However, this kind of behavior is still despised by most people.

Hiroshi Wakao and Masao Maruyama, who were born in insect production, regard Osamu Tezuka as their mentor, and naturally their relationship with the traitor Hiroshi Okada is like fire and water.

The contradiction between the two sides involves the two gods of the previous generation, Hayao Miyazaki and Osamu Tezuka, and Qin Han is not good to comment, because this is not a personal grudge, it does not involve personality merits, it is just a pure battle of ideas. But for a villain like Okada Hiroshi, he doesn't get used to it.

In particular, the other party actually deliberately came to taunt and assert that the animation with his own participation would never succeed.

"OKADA, THAT GUY IS UNDERESTIMATING SHAFT! I must make a successful animation!" Hiroshi Wakao clenched his fists.

"That's what I'm going to do. Is Toei Animation amazing? After all, you still have to talk about your work. Qin Han nodded.

"Teacher Qin Han, do you have any interesting ideas?"

"Absolutely. The original "Sailor Moon" is a popular shoujo manga with an average sales of more than 1 million, and Toei Animation is also very strong. And most importantly, Toei Animation and TV Asahi are both subsidiaries of Toei Co., Ltd. and have super TV resources. So we had to find a different way to compete. ”
