Chapter Seventy-Six: Once and Now
It was a winter six years ago.,Misaki is still in the first year of junior high school.,This winter seems to be extraordinarily cold.,Snowflakes have not yet entered December.,Standing at the school gate.,Misaki let out a big cloud of heat.,Rubbing her palms.,Try to make the stiff palms flexible again.,Wait and go to the animation department to do animation.,It's not okay to have so stiff fingers.。
"I knew I was honestly wearing gloves, what the hell, how could it suddenly be so cold this year? Wasn't it rumored a long time ago that the world began to warm because of the increase in carbon dioxide due to the cloud of car exhaust? It's been said for so long, and it's still so cold this year. Misaki complained a little gloomily, her voice was small, but even if she didn't speak in such a small voice, no one around would hear her.
Because it was Sunday, the students were all spending this rare day of rest comfortably and lazily in the kotatsu at home, and only a few people would continue to come to school to participate in club activities.
This is unimaginable for a first-year junior high school student, would anyone participate in club activities in such weather? This is true love!
However, it didn't seem strange for some people with dreams, and soon, Misaki came to the animation department.
The animation department already has a few members.,But unlike Misaki.,They're all second-year,Third-year seniors.。
Misaki is the only first-year student in this animation department, but she is also the main student in this animation department. Her ability completely conquered this group of students in the animation department, and after this year, Misaki, who is still the deputy minister, will be the minister when she is promoted to the second year.
"It's finally here, Misaki." The minister, a girl with long burgundy hair, is a beautiful and gentle person, and is now a third-year student, graduating in a few days, and her greatest wish is to make an animation they have made before then.
A complete, animated story.
A lot of scripts were written, but in the end it was a simple love story.
Because those animations that require a lot of special effects and a lot of storyboards require a lot of investment and manpower, it is simply impossible for a group of junior high school students. So, even though they like the blockbuster animation very much as junior high school students, they finally compromise with reality and choose, a better love story.
There are many steps in the production of animation, first you have to draw the characters on the paper, the lines, this is the sketch, and then the sketch is more perfect, and then scan it to the computer, and then start coloring, and then draw the background, and then through the computer synthesis, it becomes an animation, and finally you need to add the voice of the voice actor, a variety of sound effects, and BGM, and finally, you also need to check the picture of each frame to see if there is any step wrong, to see if there is any collapse.
When you're done with all of this, it's a complete animation.
And now, after nearly a semester of hard work, this group of club members of the animation department has finally completed the animation of this ten-minute short simple love story, and as long as the voice of the voice actor is added, it is officially completed.
Of course, the voice actors were served by these members, and after an hour of tossing, these five or six club members finally finished the animation.
They stared at the somewhat old desktop computer, subconsciously holding their breath, waiting for the picture to appear.
The screen reads: "Converting...... 1% ...... in conversion 99%…… The conversion is complete and is playing......"
Then, the first image appeared.
It's a riverside. You can see the pebbles at the bottom of the river, and you can hear the sound of rushing water. A small fish, flowing through it.
"Kako-senpai!" The male protagonist's voice came out, and the story began.
"It's moving, it's moving! It's finally done! The head of the animation department, a girl with long burgundy hair, showed a satisfied and happy expression, and said with some excitement: "It's amazing......
"yes, that's great, it's finally done, our animation, it's finally done." The words of the long-haired burgundy girl aroused the consent of the other members of the department.
Misaki sat in front of the chair, watching the picture on the computer screen flow, and couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart, and nodded vigorously after hearing this.
Her eyes, staring at the computer screen without blinking, looked carefully, and thought to herself, how good, looking at the pictures she created, showing them in such a way, such vitality, it is really fascinating. One day, I want to have my own animation company to make my favorite animation!
Someday......
"Huh?" Misaki opened her eyes and looked around a little confused, but she only reacted instantly, and those just now, some real fragments, were just her own dreams, and she recalled some of her previous memories in a dreamlike way.
"Why am I dreaming?" Misaki sat up slowly, looked at the already bright sky outside the window, exhaled softly and said, "It's been so long...... I don't know how the seniors are doing now? And the minister, where is it now...... Are you also insisting on animation? ”
She looked at the computer not far away, then rubbed her eyes, stretched, yawned, patted her cheeks, clenched her fists, and finally said to herself: "It's a new day, you have to work harder!" The production progress is only a pitiful 19%! That's not going to work! This thing must be made before the summer vacation arrives! ”
If she hadn't done it before then, she would have missed out on many opportunities.
You have to work harder.
At the same time, the first day of the new year arrived, and a total of 5,000 bookstores of all sizes across Japan had Koyanagi's new books on the shelves.
This is a very impressive number, you know, there are only about 20,000 bookstores in the country.
In fact, before the development of online books, there were as many as 25,000 bookstores in Japan, and with the development of online books, physical books inevitably caused some decline, and in recent years, 5,000 physical bookstores have disappeared.
This is the situation in Japan of this world, in Koyanagi's previous life, Japan's physical publishing industry had a more serious decline, originally 22,000 bookstores, with the development of online books, gradually disappeared from more than 8,000 bookstores, to 14,000 bookstores, or even less.
Because the base of this world is larger, even if there is a recession, it is not much different from the peak period of the previous life.
These bookstores that have put Koyanagi on the shelves can be put on the shelves as soon as possible, naturally because of Koyanagi's last book, which makes them taste the sweetness!
Therefore, one by one, they are all hanging a horizontal bar on the notice board at the door, or on the window, which reads: "Koyanagi's new book "Winner is Justice" is officially on sale! Come and buy! The latest masterpiece by the author of the super popular work "Slave of Money"! Not to be missed! ”
