Future even feels like being able to hear his own heartbeat.
Yukino reached over and clasped Mirai's hand.
Chiho next to him also stretched out his hand when he saw it.
Kasugano Castle, not far away, glanced at it, but began to taste his tea.
But this time, Yukino and Chiho both regretted it a little, because the future involuntarily had already pinched their fingers.
But neither of them said anything, just let the future vent their nervousness.
"Hi, hi, yes, thank you so much."
Yukiko over there was on the phone, and there was no change in mood from her expression, which seemed to be still so stable.
The people who were staring at her couldn't help but feel even more nervous, they couldn't see anything like this!
If the other people's reactions were normal, then Fengxue Lu was a little impatient and had already run over to hear the conversation.
And at this time, Yukiko finally hung up the phone.
Fengxue Lu couldn't hold back any longer, and hurriedly asked, "How much?" How much? Tell me if there have been three? ”
Yukiko was just silent.
"Don't worry." Hosoda stood up and comforted, "We're a late-night anime, so it's okay if the ratings are low. Cheer up and care about the ratings of late-night stalls or something, that's an act only for laymen. ”
"How much? Even if it's 2, it's acceptable.,It's not a big deal at all.,Shouldn't it?,Shouldn't there be even 1! This is a bit of a blow! Feng Xuelu squatted down and said sadly.
"No, it's 4, it's already broken 4, it's already broken 4!"
Yukiko shouted.
The room was quiet at first.
Immediately, there was a round of applause, which was the sound of Makoto Kasugano clapping, and then, Hashimoto Mori and Suzudaira Chiyu began to applaud. The wind and snow road ran through the room, until finally hit the seat and lay on the ground, but still laughing.
Future couldn't help but feel a little out of his strength, and let go of the two, Yukino and Chiho both applauded.
Everyone sighed with joy.
"4, in the past few years, only the First God Fist has this result in the late night file!"
"Yes, the first word of the First God Fist is 4.8, how many are we? Has it exceeded 4.8? ”
"It's enough to be happy to break 4, no matter what time it's 4, it's almost the same!" It was the wind and snow road on the ground waving his hand and shouting.
"It's 4.6."
"Wow, it didn't exceed the first divine fist, it's a pity!"
"Didn't you just say that 2 is acceptable?"
"But now it's broken 4, why not a little more?"
"That's not a little bit."
Nishiya Aoi was about to propose a celebration party, but Hosoda Gogo stood up, and his appearance was very serious: "Don't get carried away, this is just the first word, there are many animations with high ratings in the first episode, but the back is very low." And, don't forget, we're a late-night anime, and the most important thing is sales, ratings or whatever, don't care too much. ”
When his words came out, he was very majestic at first, but by the end he was already a little choked.
"The supervision that cares about ratings is unprofessional, and it's not prime-time, and it's not prime-time......"
Speaking of which, Hosoda couldn't say any more, and there were already faint tears in his eyes when he saw him in the future.
Future knows what he has in mind, he is no longer the director of animated films, not even prime time.
But what about even a late-night stall?
His turnaround has begun!
From this day on, he is back on the battlefield of oversight.
"Really...... Thank you very much! ”
"I lost my temper."
Choking up to say this, he walked quickly out of the room.
Miyako Kitada patted Nishida on the shoulder and angrily snorted at him.
Nishida was a little puzzled: "What's wrong?" Are you tired? ”
"Stupid! Aren't you Hosoda's junior brother? Just look at your senior brother and don't care? ”
"Oh!" Nishida hurriedly stood up and chased him out.
In the room, the wind and snow have begun to roll all over the ground.
"Great, then the anime sales will definitely be high, and then the game sales will also increase, and then I will get two salaries, and I will be able to ......"
"Impossible, even if the sales are high, how much money can you get as a screenwriter!"
"Don't let me fantasize about it!"
"Anyway, let's have a celebration party first, and tomorrow we will also go to the hotel...... "Saiya Aoi said.
"Veto."
The future suddenly stood up.
"From the first episode onwards, the time will be even tighter, and there will be no leisure time to celebrate at all." Future walked through the room and stopped in front of the wind and snow road.
"And, just 4.6 isn't enough. In the case of general animation, the first episode will take a lot of effort to do, so the ratings of the first episode will be high, and the later episodes will be low. So you go and think about the plot well, and the plot later is not allowed to have any problems. It's not enough just 4, we have to break 5, and even, find a way to increase the average rating to more than 5. ”
"That's impossible! The average rating of late-night slots is 5, which is simply impossible in this era! ”
"That's why we have to find a way to do it, record this kind of thing, it's not for creation, it's for breaking!"
At this time, Nishida had already walked over with Hosoda in his arms.
Hosoda went a lot calmer, he first apologized and then said, "I really lost my temper just now. The future is well said, for late-night animation, the ratings are meaningless. Again, our focus should be on sales. Anyway, the most important thing is to complete the animation on time, so don't celebrate or anything, but it's okay to have a little fun. But it can't affect the rest of the work. ”
Although he said that the ratings were meaningless, he knew very well that the ratings already had a lot of significance. The animation in the late-night file already has ratings that compete with the prime-time animation. This difficulty is not ordinary. As for the future of the five, he thinks it is impossible to get five on average. Because ratings generally drop after the first episode, after all, there are many people who watch the first episode just out of curiosity. However, he hopes to be able to break five in certain episodes.
After all, he and Miku have discussed that the first episode is just the beginning of the story, and it is not exciting to start up like ordinary anime. So there's still a lot of room for improvement. This is also where the confidence to break five in the future lies.
However, at this time, he was very surprised, not because of the future declaration of breaking five, he knew that it was a word used in the future to boost morale and allow them to make animations more carefully.
He was surprised that even he was very excited, a child in the future would be able to be proud at this time, and what he did was not to celebrate, but to stand up and calm the atmosphere.
It is not only about calming, but also about having the momentum to pour cold water and the mind to calm the team down in this elevated atmosphere.
He couldn't help but be very grateful, in fact, late-night animation didn't care much about the ratings, of course, the ratings were too high and too low. But because most of what he did before Toei was prime time, he paid more attention to the ratings. Especially now that the hope ignited by the ratings has made him lose his temper.
He originally wanted to calm down the atmosphere, but he couldn't even control his emotions.
After being found by Nishida, he calmed down and prepared to come back to stabilize the atmosphere, only to find that the future had begun to take control of the situation after he left.
If it really makes them celebrate, and even affects the subsequent broadcast of the anime, it will be a huge problem. Fortunately, there is a future as a deputy overseer, and although everyone is in high spirits now, they are full of fighting spirit. This kind of mood is very suitable for the atmosphere of work.
"It's a pity it's late at night. Otherwise, this momentum can be done directly. Hosoda thought regretfully.
"It's getting late, let's go back and rest!"
Hosoda said that although everyone was still a little excited, they had to prepare to go home.
Walking out of the office, there was silence in the middle of the night.
The fiery excitement in everyone's hearts gradually cooled down.
However, at this time, the heat brought by the void of fate has just begun! (To be continued.) )
