Chapter 256. The plan was successful! (8000 words)
After Kameyama Lingmei said it, he didn't forget to add: "I'm sorry, it's rude, I'm just a little curious about the specific production progress." ”
As an agent, she is only responsible for the contract remuneration of her subordinate Mizuguchiko, and asking about the production progress is inevitably a little overstepping... After all, she is not a production staff, so she is not qualified to ask about it at all.
Fortunately, Tsukasa Higashino didn't care about this sentence, and just turned around and asked Yano Ryuichi to get the original painting.
"This is part of the original painting of the first episode of "Winner is Justice", the original manuscript is still there, these are printouts." Ryuichi Yano placed a file bag on the table.
"Thank you, Mr. Higashino." Kameyama thanked her, and Kako Mizuguchi turned to look at the original painting on the table.
Then the two of them glanced at each other, and the previous foreknowledge - they really found a treasure.
How is the original draft of "Winner is Justice" as unsightly as the outside world says?
Exquisite original paintings, subtlely carved character expressions, background size ratio...
I have to say that these unpainted original paintings give them a sense of extreme detail.
There are even some original paintings, in the words of many people, that is, 'screenshots can be used as computer wallpapers'.
It's really delicate.
"Each of the original paintings here has the shadow of Higashino-sensei's revision." Ryuichi Yano added with a smile: "So please rest assured that Miss Kameyama and Miss Mizuguchi are definitely not a bad drama." ”
As for Riko Hasegawa on the other side...
She was already very relieved, and after looking at the original painting twice, she heard Yano Ryuichi say that these were all modified by Higashino Tsukasa himself... So he quietly glanced at Tsukasa Higashino again.
And Kameyama Reimi and Mizuguchi Kako were not so surprised by what Yano Ryuichi said, 'These have the shadow of Tsukasa Higashino'.
Because as early as the subtle influence of these excellent works in "Unnatural Death", they already felt that it was normal for Higashino Tsukasa to come up with excellent works, and it was enough to symbolically praise two sentences, no need to praise more.
On the contrary, if Tsukasa Higashino doesn't come up with a delicate work... The two of them were surprised and stunned.
It's like if your table mate has always been the first in the grade, and you will be used to it if you hang everyone in the whole grade, but if one day, your table mate's grades suddenly fall to the bottom of the grade, and you will be surprised and stunned more than anyone else.
"Xiangzi, this time is indeed an unexpected joy." Reimi Kameyama signed the contract with Kako Mizuguchi, and she didn't forget to say a word to her.
“... Truly. Kako Mizuguchi did not deny this.
Originally, she just wanted to accompany her friend and come over to help... That's all it takes.
As a result, she didn't expect that she just stopped by to help, but picked up a big bargain.
You must know that if you compete according to the normal process, Kako Mizuguchi may not be able to win the role of Zedi Junjiang.
I was really lucky this time.,I thought that Riko Hasegawa's friend might be my career nemesis.,But now it seems to be a lucky star?
Compared with the simple thinking of Kako Mizuguchi on the other side, Riko Hasegawa, who was about to sign a contract on the other side, looked at her hand and was stunned.
She originally heard about the dilemma of Higashino Studio's production of "Winner is Justice" this time, so she planned to come over to send charcoal in the snow - she really planned to send charcoal in the snow, so she even thought about taking care of Higashino Tsukasa's face and cheering him for him in the future.
As a result, at this time, you suddenly told me that there is no predicament? Am I picking up a bargain again this time?
The contrast between this makes Riko Hasegawa a little unacceptable.
What about the dilemma?
What about charcoal in the snow?
What about my plan to repay the favor?
Why did it become that I owe Mr. Higashino a favor again?
That's not right...
She was a little unacceptable for a moment, and it took her back to her senses after Mizuguchi's repeated reminders.
"What's wrong with you? Riko? Seeing the strangeness of her friend, Mizuguchi Kako asked with concern.
Could it be that he was overshocked by the sudden happiness? Think you're so lucky?
She feels like she has it too, but Riko Hasegawa's long-term stunned mind is a little abnormal.
"It's nothing..."Riko Hasegawa came back to her senses, smiled at Kako Mizuguchi, and then wrote her name on the contract.
Seeing her like this, Mizuguchi Kako next to her actually felt that she was a little depressed.
But she thinks it's probably her own delusion.
After all, it's too late to be happy when you encounter such a good thing, so you will be depressed?
"I'll ask Mr. Higashino for more advice in the future." Reimi Kameyama got the mobile phone number of Tsukasa Higashino and stretched out her hand with a happy expression.
"Teach each other." Higashino replied with a smile and shook his hand.
"But I actually have a question, Higashino-sensei." After shaking hands, Kameyama asked suspiciously, "Why don't you announce the production progress of "Winner is Justice"?" Wouldn't this attract a lot of powerful voice actors? ”
What attracts voice actors?
The first is undoubtedly the animation script, a good animation script is conducive to the value of voice actors, and after the works they appear in are popular, they can also use this to gather a wave of fame.
The second is the progress of animation production, even if you have a good script, the quality of animation production itself is low, and excellent voice actors starring in this kind of work are easy to lose their value.
And the third most important thing is to get paid... However, with the first and second popularity enhancements, it is not difficult to increase the third reward.
So Kameyama Lingmei was a little confused.
Tsukasa Higashino is obviously thorough, why is he reluctant to reveal a little bit about the production details of "Winner is Justice"?
"I've thought about this before, but before revealing the details, many firms politely refused, so I thought about it and hid it."
Tsukasa Higashino answered Reimi Kameyama's question.
And Kameyama Reimi was speechless when she heard this... She guessed that Higashino Tsukasa also had some opinions about these 'euphemistic' rejected companies, and felt that if you didn't come, don't come, anyway, I didn't ask you to come, so Higashino Tsukasa didn't bother to reveal it.
This made Kameyama Reimi inexplicably feel that Tsukasa Higashino was indeed a manga author with a lot of character.
But to be honest, this method can only be played by Tsukasa Higashino, and it's okay to play.
After all, Tsukasa Higashino is the producer of works, and many film and television works in Japan mainly follow the path of adaptation of the original book, as long as he can continue to maintain the production of high-quality works, no animation production company can ignore him.
Reimi Kameyama quickly took care of the relevant formalities and bowed to Tsukasa Higashino with Kako Mizuguchi.
On the other side, Riko Hasegawa was a little restless and a little depressed.
This makes Tsukasa Higashino a little unclear, "Winner is Justice" is in good production right now, which should be a good thing for Riko Hasegawa.
Why is she still downcast?
However, Tsukasa Higashino didn't ask much, just handed the line script to Riko Hasegawa and motioned to the other party to cheer up and not let himself down.
At this point, the voice actors of Tomoko Daisama and Kimie Sawachi have been decided, and the overall production of the animation has finally advanced to the middle stage.
After all, according to the overall production of the eleven episodes of the first season of "Winner is Justice", the original painting of the fourth episode has now been completed, and now the colorists are working on the coloring work, and the original art team is starting to work on the fifth episode, and the voice actors are almost ready, and they can start work in a few days of practice...
There are more than two months left, and in this remaining time, as long as there are no accidents, the production of "Winner is Justice" is basically no problem.
So for Tsukasa Higashino, "Winner is Justice" can finally put aside for a while and look instead at the CD sales of the singles "Don't Throw in the Defeat", "Lemon" and "Although Our Hands Are Empty".
Unlike the day before yesterday, after two days of precipitation, "Don't Admit Defeat", the killer feature added by Tsukasa Higashino halfway, finally gradually revealed its fangs that dominated Japan for more than 20 years, with disc sales reaching 27,000 pieces, and Tsukasa Higashino's single CD was also listed in the middle of the daily sales of the public trust charts.
Among them, the digital version of "Don't Admit Defeat" is the second place on the airborne distribution list, staring directly at "Lemon", which has been the champion for 7 consecutive weeks, and it feels like stabbing it down.
As for "Although Our Hands Are Empty", which is not like "Lemon", which has "Unnatural Death" and continues to increase its popularity, it slipped to third place, and at the same time looked up, ready to watch "Lemon" and "Don't Admit Defeat".
Anyway, it's all a family, and it doesn't matter if you kill it or not.
All of a sudden, a strange sight happened.
Tsukasa Higashino's three songs occupy the top three on the distribution list - many singers below look at the lyrics, composers, and singers, all of which are Tsukasa Higashino's three songs, drooling...
Tsukasa Higashino also used this song "Don't Admit Defeat" to experience the feeling of being a singer again, and there were fans asking for autographs on the road.
Similarly, during this period, many singers and firms have quietly contacted him, either hoping that he will write a song, or hoping that he can appear in a certain show... After all, Tsukasa Higashino's songs can be said to be extremely sought-after in the outside world, and everyone hopes to be able to hold the thigh of Tsukasa Higashino, get good songs, and become famous in one fell swoop.
After all, Tsukasa Higashino wrote the first song and became popular, and it can be said that he was accidental, and when he wrote the second song, it became popular, and it can barely be said that he hit a lot of luck, but the third song is also popular, and even surpasses before... This makes people have to think that Higashino Tsukasa is indeed outstanding.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this.
And then I don't know which tabloid broke out that "Don't Admit Defeat" actually saved a male listener - this listener's family is in a miserable situation, his father can't accept the fact that the bubble economy was laid off, he drinks all day long, and his mother commits suicide because of his father's changed temperament... Originally, he was going to go with his mother, but when he heard "Don't Admit Towel" playing in Nagano Square, he felt that he couldn't go on like this... Try again and get up.
This news has attracted a lot of attention.
But to be honest, Tsukasa Higashino actually thinks that this news was compiled by that tabloid, in order to simply rub the heat... After all, if this is true, how dramatic should life be?
A song saves a life... To be honest, Tsukasa Higashino couldn't imagine it, at most, that person didn't want to die in the first place, and he cheered up after listening to this song.
Even Ryuichi Yano and the others came over to ask if there was any good theme song for "Winner is Justice", hoping that Tsukasa Higashino would come up with it...
This made Higashino Tsukasa wave his hand directly to drive people away - why did they come to me to ask for songs? Go find someone else on your own, I'm very busy right now.
After all, the TV series "Winner is Justice" did not have a particularly ear-catching theme song like "Unnatural Death" in the previous life.
In short, there are those who sell miserably, those who offer high prices, and those who know that they are emotional and reasonable... Even the most outrageous thing is that I don't know how these people inquired, and they actually found some relatives and friends of the Higashino family and asked them to help intercede.
Many of these relatives and friends who had snubbed the Higashino family before took the initiative to come to the door with a shy smile on their faces, saying that we have always had confidence in your brothers and sisters, and I think you are completely fine, you are people who can do great things, and we relatives are not polite, if there is anything that needs help, just tell us, we are relatives after all...
These people are really not polite at all, and when they came to the door, they took the initiative to ask Higashino Tsukasa for good songs, good songs, and good ideas.
And for these relatives and friends who took the initiative to come to the door, Higashino Tsukasa just smiled and 'invited' them all out.
He was originally more resistant to these relatives and friends - when the Higashino family was in trouble before, I didn't see you so diligent to come to help, and I took the initiative to come to the door to pick up my wool after I made some small achievements? How can there be such a cheap thing in the world?
But these rejections obviously can't wipe out the enthusiasm of the people who ask for songs, which makes Higashino Tsukasa can't help but shake his head, he really doesn't have much interest in music, even the music theory he learned in his previous life was to chase his girlfriend to take a cursory look and reluctantly study.
He took the initiative to make an announcement, saying that his inspiration had dried up, and he couldn't compose lyrics and music with high intensity, and "Don't Admit Defeat" was already the pinnacle work, and he hoped that everyone wouldn't deify themselves too much, which reduced the frequency of door-to-door visits.
And in addition to these troubles, there is still something that surprises Higashino Tsukasa.
That is the average volume sales of "Unnatural Death", which was almost at a standstill, are slowly climbing upwards and is expected to exceed 2.1 million volume sales.
This brought this to the attention of Urashima Press, who soon realized that it was Tsukasa Higashino's single CD that was working, and many music fans who had never seen Tsukasa Higashino's work became interested and began to pay for Tsukasa Higashino.
This made Higashino Tsukasa of course more happy.
The "Don't Throw in the Defeat" plan has succeeded! I just don't know if I can continue to maintain it and reach the height of Sakai Spring in my previous life - it is known as the strongest support song in Japan's "Lost Decade".
However, Higashino Tsukasa just thought about it, and soon he smiled and shook his head, thinking that it was unlikely.
After all, he doesn't have the appearance and singing skills of Sakai Spring Water.
