Chapter 152: A New Direction

"President Sasaki, after careful consideration, we have decided to join Kasuga Pictures." Shen Zhenghui waited for two weeks, and finally waited for a reply from Takeuchi Chong and Nasu Mushroom. This made Shen Zhenghui breathe a sigh of relief, and his nerves, which had been tortured by work, were temporarily relaxed.

In the future, TYPE-MOON will appear as a subsidiary of Kasuga Pictures, but Takashi Takeuchi and Nasu Mushroom hold the majority of TYPE-MOON's shares, which means that TYPE-MOON is their studio under the name of Kasuga Pictures. The vast majority of the income from the works sold by TYPE-MOON, excluding the channel fees and publicity fees for using Kasuga, will go to TYPE-MOON itself. With such generous conditions, Nazumi Horiguchi was very shocked at first, but when she reported it to Mitsumi Fukuda, the other party did not object. As a result, it is called the thickest treaty in the history of Kasuga.

This treaty was so generous that Takashi Takeuchi and Nasu Mushroom were tortured by the treaty for two weeks before finally making up their minds to sign their names, according to them: at this price, even if they sell themselves, they will have to accept their fate.

Shen Zhenghui got the talent he wanted, but at the moment, how to make these two talents play a role is a worrying thing.

"Do you have an office?"

"Well, we have, but the lease is almost up. So recently we were going to move to my house to work. Wu Neichong said this, Shen Zhenghui stared at Wu Neichong in shock, you can still think about such conditions for two weeks, you think too much, right?

"Ugh. That's it," Shen Zhenghui coughed a few times, "There will be an independent animation company under the command of Kasuga soon, and it is preparing to rent a building, and I will arrange for you to rent a place with them, so that the rent can be cheaper." How many offices do you want? ”

"Animation company?" Takashi Takeuchi and Nasu Mushroom looked at each other, "Kasuga is going to break away from GONZO and establish his own independent animation company?" ”

"We are also working with GONZO, and GONZO is determined to shift its focus to animated films in the future, so it is only natural that we will form a new company to capture the market share of TV animation." Shen Zhenghui said, "I think it's also a good choice to put you together. Sooner or later, you'll have to find an animation company to animate your work. ”

"Ah......h

"Now that the contract has been signed. Then the cost of a qiē will be paid by the spring first, and then I will slowly calculate it with you, and I will ask you how many offices do you want? ”

"Eight?" Mushroom counted with his fingers tagged.

"Four!" Takeuchi interrupted him, "You can share with me." He said to Nasu Mushroom. Save a little. ”

Shen Zhenghui pouted and looked at the two people and began to calculate. In the end, I had to interrupt them. "I'm sure you'll be able to earn it back, and Haruhi can advance your money for three years, if you don't make money for three years. I believe this is simply not possible. ”

The two men stopped arguing, still with the unreality of suddenly winning the jackpot.

"If you don't have anything more to say, I'll say what I think first and see if you agree." Shen Zhenghui picked up a sample book, "The Realm of Emptiness has decided to publish it, and we have cooperated with Kadokawa, and Kadokawa Bookstore is also very interested in this book. ”

"Wow!" Mushroom exclaimed, "Has it been published?" I need to revise this one more time. ”

"Don't worry, it's just the cover, I'll show you if you're not satisfied." Shen Zhenghui handed over the book in his hand, "We need to find some artists to design illustrations, the artists in our new animation company are very free, I hope it is not only illustrations, it is best to be able to comic this work by the way, I don't know how you arrange your recent work." ”

Takeuchi frowned, "We're busy debugging the battle game Tsukihime, and I'm afraid we won't have time. ”

"Then let these artists help you make the renderings of "Tsukihime", and you can also take this opportunity to run in, if you can, the game team will be placed in your studio in the future."

"Huh?" Takeuchi Chong was shocked to find that his subordinates had been greatly enriched all of a sudden.

Shen Zhenghui didn't ignore his surprise, "Since we talked about your game, then by the way, you can communicate with the same in Taiwan, next month we will send a group of game production personnel from Hantang to Japan to learn, just put it in your studio, give me the time to hurry up, take out the full version of "Moon Hime" as soon as possible, we have a good release time, by the way, the comic adaptation and animation adaptation work will also start, you can find someone yourself or let us find someone," Shen Zhenghui glanced at the mushroom, " There are many things that you don't need to do yourself, so organize the main points and let the people below do it for you. ”

"I don't think that's going to be good." Nasu Mushroom said, "I still like to write it myself." ”

Shen Zhenghui looked at him and nodded, "Did you write the story of ten years ago and end it?" ”

"......" The mushroom stopped talking.

"Of course I'm not against fine work, I mean you take care of the important parts, and let others do the other unimportant parts." Shen Zhenghui blinked, "Do you also want to play in person for the comics and animations?" Just do a good job of overseeing the work. ”

"Can it really be animated?" Takeuchi asked in a low voice.

"The animation department has been busy with another film recently, and when they are done, I hope that the adaptation of your work will be handed over smoothly, which requires that your work can create some kind of momentum in a short period of time, so that everyone wants to see the work animated. Kadokawa's weekly magazine is waiting for the manga to be serialized! ”

The phone rang, Shen Zhenghui glanced at it, and made a gesture to the two people to make them wait, he picked up the phone, and from the receiver came the voice of Nazumi Horiguchi, "Miss Liu Xin came over and wanted to see you." ”

"Oh? Didn't you ask her what it was? Shen Zhenghui asked.

"She said it had something to do with the new animation system, and I let her come up?" Natsumi Horiguchi replied.

"Okay." Shen Zhenghui hung up the phone and looked up at the two people standing opposite him again, "Very good, the person in charge of the animation company is here, I hope you get to know each other, maybe there will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future." ”

Two Japanese began to tidy up their clothes.

There was a knock on the door, and then Liu Xin walked in, and when she saw three people in the room, she looked at Shen Zhenghui a little crampedly, "Am I bothering you?" ”

"Nope. I'm waiting for you to come! "Shen Zhenghui came over." Let me introduce you to two very talented people in the anime industry who have just joined the Kasuga Pictures family, Takashi Takeuchi and Mr. Nasu Mushroom," Shen Zhenghui introduced. "The president of TYPE-MOON, who released the game "Tsukihime". Author of "The Realm of Emptiness". ”

"Oh!" Liu Xin also showed an expression that he had admired for a long time. She shook hands with Mushroom, "Your story is dark, but it feels powerful. Then shake hands with Takeuchi Chong. I really like the characters in your game, even though I haven't played that game, but it's interesting just by looking at the characters. ”

The two Japanese were also very surprised to see that the person in charge of the animation department was actually a young and beautiful girl, and they kept showing a reserved smile and facing Liu Xin's criticism with a smile.

"Next, I'm going to read your works and play games," Liu Xin turned his head to look at Shen Zhenghui and said, "The president has already put the animation of your works on the schedule, and we will have to work together at that time, so please take care of it then." ”

The two guys were like Raj who hadn't drunk, and they could barely say anything meaningful to the girls.

"Well, what's the matter?" Shen Zhenghui asked Liu Xin.

"Oh!" Liu Xin patted his head, "I asked Mr. Ito that the dubbing work of "Journey to the West" has been completed, and I want to come over and ask you if you can watch this movie in the screening room." Liu Xin had an expectant expression, "CLAMP has been looking forward to it for a long time, and they feel that the feeling of watching the subtitle version is not in place." ”

"Oh, is it done?" Shen Zhenghui was also surprised, "This is really fast, let me ask Mr. Ito Sogo." ”

"In addition," Liu Xin continued, "we have also obtained the official translation of the novel, and CLAMP has already made a script according to the storyline, which needs to be shown to you." Liu Xin took out a stack of sketches.

This also attracted the interest of Nao Mushroom and Takeuchi Chong, "They stepped forward and watched as Shen Zhenghui took out the manga script page by page. ”

After watching it for a few minutes, Shen Zhenghui handed the rest of the script to Wu Neichong, "I won't be able to finish watching this thing for a while, so I'll arrange the movie first." ”

"Movies?" Nasu Mushroom was intrigued, "Can we take a look at it too?" What is the theme? Do you want to adapt? ”

"Appears as the background of the anime and manga that will be adapted," Shen Zhenghui picked up the phone and dialed Ito Sogo's phone, "This is considered the preparation for the anime and manga adaptation." Moxi Moxi, Section Chief Ito? I heard that "Journey to the West" has been dubbed, so I want to arrange to watch the test screening, well, you are still reviewing it? No need to review it...... Uh, okay, we'll review it with you, so let's do it. Shen Zhenghui looked at his watch, then looked at Liu Xin, and covered the microphone, "What is the right time?" ”

"If you can, after work, it's just right to have dinner." Liu Xin said.

"That's off work, do they agree?"

Liu Xin nodded vigorously, and Shen Zhenghui said into the phone, "It starts at seven o'clock in the evening, please work overtime." After watching the two films, it took more than three hours, and it was ten o'clock, Shen Zhenghui put down the phone, "I'll arrange it, and send them back after watching the movie." ”

Takeuchi Chong handed over the comic script in his hand to Mushroom, "Is this the story of "Journey to the West"? It seems to be interesting, what kind of movie is it? We want to see it too. ”

Shen Zhenghui tilted his head, "Yes, CLAMP is also your senior, so you can also communicate." ”

Mushroom's attention was all on the script, and he read the whole story almost quickly, then he closed his eyes and opened them again, "This story is amazing," he said, "It turns out that the six-eared macaque is the Monkey King himself!" He exclaimed, "Is this a new story created by CLAMP?" ”

"Ah, no, this story has an original book in China." Liu Xin replied on the side.

"Really? No wonder there are some settings in it that I don't understand, is there a stalk with a background? ”

"We're going to watch a movie tonight about the origin of these memes." Shen Zhenghui said. "Oh, if you want to read the original book, I have a printed copy here, and the book and Kadokawa have also been negotiated, and it will be published soon."

……

When it was time to officially watch the movie, Shen Zhenghui found out how wise it was to leave Takeuchi Takashi and Nasu Mushroom, tonight's movie was also an internal audit meeting of Ito's Sogo department, and most of his classes were women, CLAMP Four women plus Liu Xin and the girls who came with Liu Xin, Yin Yin Cuicui. Shen Zhenghui was a little stunned. All the men present added up to five miserable people, and the women added up to at least twenty or so.

Yin flourishes and yang declines! Shen Zhenghui said to himself, because voice actress Sogo Ito chose a few small voice actors who are not too famous, but have more recognizable voices. These women also came to the audit meeting tonight. Probably because of the dinner package and the car transfer. You can also meet some people, so the women's corps is particularly spectacular.

What made Shen Zhenghui scratch his head was that Tomoaki Aonuma and Natsumi Horiguchi also came to participate in the audit meeting, and even added Ayaka Kuroishi. Tomoaki Aonuma with Bai Jingjing. It's understandable why Nazumi Horiguchi and Ayaka Kuroishi also came?

"I'm your secretary and it's job." Nazumi Horiguchi replied.

Ayaka Kuroishi said, "I heard that the group has been busy with this film recently, so I was very curious and wanted to have a sneak peek, and if I could, I just took it to the little girls to make training materials." ”

Training Materials...... Is it?

Shen Zhenghui sat in the screening room like pins and needles, but he saw Liu Xin and Qingnuma Tomoaki sitting together, and the two women actually got together and exchanged heads.

Takeuchi Chong and Nasu Mushroom, who were beside Shen Zhenghui, were talking in a low voice, "It's heaven!" Wu Neichong sighed, the beauty index in the entire screening room was particularly high, and in a trance, he even felt that he was in the daughter country.

The mushroom who had just been introduced to CLAMP was also very surprised, and secretly glanced at Shen Zhenghui, "I said that there was such a benefit, I must have agreed to the conditions from the beginning." ”

Takeuchi nodded with concern.

Ito Sogo was beside Shen Zhenghui, pursing his lips and looking stern. It wasn't until Shen Zhenghui patted him on the shoulder that he coughed and relaxed his expression.

"What's wrong? Too many people upset? ”

"Ah, this kind of review will stop when there is a problem with the screening, so that the voice actors can experience it, but tonight it seems that they can't follow the normal process."

Shen Zhenghui rolled his eyes and looked at the ceiling, "Don't be so old-fashioned, let's just see the effect, and besides, your male voice actors haven't come!" ”

Ito Sogo was a little resentful, "The previous inspection has been ruled out. ”

Shen Zhenghui was helpless about this, turned his head and pretended to start watching a movie.

The movie is now showing.

Along with the flow of this familiar picture, the dialogue that sounded was in Japanese, and there was a wonderful sense of dissonance, and a wonderful sense of joy.

The Japanese began to laugh from ear to ear at Stephen Chow's performance.

For Shen Zhenghui, no matter how many times he watches it, he will not get tired of it. At this time, looking at the dubbed version of the Japanese actor, Shen Zhenghui had a lot of memories while watching it, and all kinds of memories were intertwined, and his mind was all cast on the movie, and he didn't have to be distracted from other aspects for a while.

At the end of the first half of the screening, everyone was still unsatisfied and anxious to see the next step. But Ito Sogo followed the usual procedure and started a half-hour break. During this time, everyone was able to go to the next room to order something to eat, and Takashi Takeuchi ordered ramen takeout. The other girls drank drinks and ate some prepared pastries at the same time, and the people in the room got together in twos and threes, chatting with each other about the plot just now, all with a cheerful expression.

Shen Zhenghui glanced at Tomoaki Aonuma and Liu Xin who were sitting together, and felt that he had returned to reality, he sat next to Takeuchi Chonghe Mushroom, deliberately talked to Ito Sogo, and praised the other party for his excellent work, Ito Sogo had a smile on his face, and tried to pretend to be indifferent and said that this is what I should do, which made Shen Zhenghui feel funny.

Takeuchi and Mushroom on the side discussed in a low voice while eating ramen, and Takeuchi asked, "You said that mythical heroes like Monkey King also appeared in the Night of Destiny, could it be a character who disrupts the balance?" ”

The mushroom that was eating ramen stopped, and Takashi Takeuchi continued, "You see, according to the real original, he is invincible at all, right?" ”

Mushroom immediately said, "First, he is not invincible, the heroes in our setting mythology are possible, and the summoned Greek heroes cannot defeat Zeus, this is a big background, if you want to coordinate the whole background, just do a good job of making a number, after all, the setting is impossible and cannot be overturned," Mushroom paused and said, "Besides, isn't it up to us authors to have the final say on how much ability to play?" Second, he is not without weaknesses......"

Shen Zhenghui next to him was taken aback, isn't this the setting of Fate? He turned around pretending to be interested, "What are you talking about?" Summoning the Monkey King? ”

"Well, that's a different story." Takashi Takeuchi explained, "In the past, the pit dug by mushrooms, and the story of a magician who could summon legendary heroes to fight and win magic rewards. ”

"Sounds interesting, do you have a finished novel?"

"It's the game setting."

"Oh, come on, get it done soon!" Shen Zhenghui patted Wu Nei Chong's shoulder.

Sogo Ito looked at the time, "There are still ten minutes left, everyone is going to the bathroom, please go early, and we will start the next episode on time in ten minutes." ”

"The story of traveling through time and space feels very interesting." Takeuchi Chong said on the side, "Imagination is very bold! ”

"Yes, traveling through time and space will be the main way of entertainment in the future!" Shen Zhenghui responded casually, not noticing that Wu Neichong was thoughtful when he heard this. (To be continued......)
