Chapter 1151: That's just decoration, and the big people above won't understand. (1st Update)
If Hao Ping often says that they are a voice actor agency, making games, making animations, and engaging in so many large-scale projects, all for the promotion of voice actors, this sentence is now despised by most people.
But this is nothing new.
There is also a company in the Japanese industry that is slightly similar to theirs.
However, unlike Hao Ping, who is engaged in an animation company to work for voice actors, the purpose of this company is to advertise its own games, and it has set up a special animation division.
While NHK was broadcasting ΞΌ's Login Red and White Song Party, Nobuhiro Takenaka, a producer in the animation division of Cygames Games, took the producer of the animation company, Manabu Otsuka, and sat at his home to watch the Red and White Song Battle.
"Love Live login is red and white." Nobuhiro Takenaka looked at the TV and said meaningfully.
"So what the hell do you mean?"
Otsuka felt that he had to accompany a man at home to watch the red and white songs during the New Year, and there was no hope in life.
But considering that Nobuhiro Takenaka is the financier of his own animation company, he can only swallow tears silently in his stomach.
"Don't you think idol animation is promising?"
"Ha ......"
"So, let's do idol animation!" Shinhiro Takenaka.
Manabu Otsuka was stunned for a moment, and didn't seem to react: "Idol animation? β
"That's right, let's animate idols. You see ΞΌ's can log in red and white, and now is the perfect time to do idol animation! β
ββ¦β¦ However, in the past few years, the idol animations that have followed the trend have all served on the streets. "Otsuka learns.
Since the advent of "Love Live", it has not been without the benefits of this project that others have been interested in, and since then, it has not been without people who have followed the trend of idol animation, and even copied G Company's idol project.
In the end, all of them were pressed by "Love Live" and couldn't raise their heads.
Among them, the only thing that can be watched is Hao Ping's "Love Live", which organized the unsuccessful contestants and assigned them to various regions to engage in "Female High School Students Want to Be Local Idols".
Other than that, all of them are works of the streets.
Of course, it's not completely unprofitable, but it's still far from the level of gold absorption of "Love Live".
Just when everyone thought that idol animation was covered by "Love Live", G Company launched the "Idol Master" project...... This time it's even more brutal than in Love Live!
A group of people saw hope again and once again sprinkled money into the idol project......
This time it's even worse, last time there was only one "Love Live", and this time it was a mixed double of "Love Live" and "Idol Master"!
"Actually, I've had this idea since Love Live first came out." Nobuhiro Takenaka said solemnly. "I just haven't had a chance to move forward with this project."
Manabu Otsuka: "......"
This guy didn't listen to himself at all!
If it weren't for the fact that this guy was the representative of his own financier, Otsuka would have wanted to strangle him now, and then drag him to Mt. Fuji, dig a pit and bury him directly!
"Don't you look at the red and white ΞΌ's and feel envious?" Nobuhiro Takenaka asked rhetorically.
Manabu Otsuka watched the TV deeply.
It's impossible not to envy that! In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the idol project was suppressed by the two major projects of G Society in the past two years, he would have been ready to invest in idol animation!
This thing doesn't need a very serious and rigorous plot, it's okay to be relaxed and cheerful, as long as the paper man is cute enough, he can make the dead house lick the screen and call his wife.
The most important thing is that this kind of plot only needs to find a screenwriter to write the plot, and it can be made into an original animation.
There is no need to look at the face of the copyright owner, and it is not just to make a little money for "manual labor".
"Don't worry about the funds for the time being, I'll find a way to convince the president!"
Nobuhiro Takenaka's last sentence overwhelmed Manabu Otsuka's bottom line, since someone invested, and Cygames was also very rich, it was completely worth losing an anime......
It's just that...... Aren't you a game company? The establishment of the animation division is completely to attract popularity to the game! Will your president really agree?
But it doesn't matter if it fails anyway, Otsuka thought carefully for a while: This thing can be done!
"What is your plan?" Manabu Otsuka changed his mentality and began to seriously discuss the animation plan with Nobuhiro Takenaka.
"Actually, I started planning for a long time!" Nobuhiro Takenaka said, "Do you remember the animation we were working on when Love Live first came out? β
"Ha ......"
Of course, Manabu Otsuka remembers that the project in Takeaka's hands at that time happened to be an animation of a game by Cygams, and it happened to be animated by their company at that time.
"Isn't there a character named Rita in there? At that time, I was thinking, this girl...... That's great! β
...... "Otsuka's expression is blank." But Rita ...... It's a zombie! β
"Zombies! Zombies are great! Nobuhiro Takenaka suddenly became excited: "Zombie plus idol, what a good idea, what do you think?" β
Manabu Otsuka: "......"
I heard that Mr. Mima Kazuki of the lightning strike library has a set of creative concepts of "sexual fetish theory", could it be that Mr. Takenaka's sexual fetish is actually a zombie?
What a ...... What about maverick sexual fetishes.
But Otsuka looked at the excited Nobuhiro Takenaka, and always felt that persuasion had no effect at this time.
had to follow him, the two of them sat in front of the TV, and slowly embodied Nobuhiro Takenaka's thoughts.
In the next few days, it was clearly the New Year, but Manabu Otsuka and Nobuhiro Takenaka nested in the office and perfected their ideas.
Even so, Manabu Otsuka still feels that there are many slots in this project.
But I have to say that the influence that ΞΌ's login gave him made him involuntarily work with Nobuhiro Takenaka to make this project.
"Can the idea of zombies and idols work?" By the time Nobuhiro Takenaka took the project to the Cygames headquarters for review, Manabu Otsuka came to his senses and always felt as if he had made a fool.
ββββ
"This ...... Takenaka-kun, your project is very difficult for the company. β
The president of Cygames took a closer look at Nobuhiro Takenaka's plan.
In fact, he thinks that the idea of the project is good, but there is a fatal problem: "Takenaka-kun, our company is a game company!" It's a game company! Although your idea is very good, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with our company. β
"Your project doesn't have any direct benefits for the company at all. So it's hard for us to pass this project. β
I've said it twice on the point of the game company.
It looks like an important point.
But Nobuhiro Takenaka has a secret weapon: "President, actually, I didn't make it clear. Didn't you ask me to figure out how to make a promotional animation for your hometown? This is the promotional animation I made for your hometown! β
Watanabe, the president of Cygames, is a native of Saga, and since his own beginning, he has been trying to promote his hometown of Saga and seek benefits.
I have always had the idea of asking the company's animation division to make a promotional animation for my hometown, and I have also urged Nobuhiro Takenaka of the animation division several times in succession.
"I see, is it Saga's promotional anime?" President Watanabe was immediately interested.
Nobuhiro Takenaka was full of slander in his heart.
- Didn't you say we're a game company? Didn't you say that you don't make animations that have nothing to do with the company's direct interests?
But being unreasonable has always been the right of leadership.
Nobuhiro Takenaka had no choice but to put his plan on the place of Saga and explain it to President Watanabe in detail.
"That's a good plan...... Watanabe was quite satisfied, "but isn't there too little content in Saga?" Can you add a little more information about Saga? β
"Then in the beginning of the plot, let the characters directly introduce the local information of Saga...... I think it's good to let Mizuno say it. β
"That's good."
Watanabe's mood is better, and Ai Mizuno has a lot of scenes in this role, so using this character to introduce it should deepen the audience's impression!
"I still miss the chicken restaurant when I was a kid......"
"No problem, we can add your favorite restaurant to the plot."
"Can you put more advertisements on the restaurant?"
"No problem! Even if you want the owner of the restaurant to do the voice for it, we can help you do it! β
"I used a great ointment when I was a kid......"
"No problem, plus! Zombies are all said to be good! β
"I like Ureshino Onsen in Saga......
"No problem, plus!"
"Local Folklore Museum ......"
"No problem, plus!
β¦β¦
After satisfying the president's numerous unreasonable demands, President Watanabe has completely and completely agreed to Nobuhiro Takenaka's plan.
I seem to have completely forgotten that I said not long ago that this project has nothing to do with my own game company.
ββFrom this point of view, Mr. Hao Ping is not alone!
President Watanabe signed Nobuhiro Takenaka's plan with satisfaction, and said excitedly, "After a while, the company will pay for people from the animation division and production company to go to Saga to collect local style, and I will personally lead the team." You're going to have to make all the scenery of Saga......"
Nobuhiro Takenaka naturally patted his chest and agreed.
As long as the boss is willing to give money, it doesn't matter as long as the main content is not affected.
ββββ
"Mr. Takenaka, how did it turn out?" Otsuka looked at Nobuhiro Takenaka who came out and greeted him.
"Our president has already agreed to the plan." Nobuhiro Takenaka told Otsuka about the new plan.
Otsuka was embarrassed: "There is so much content in Saga?" β
"Don't change the plot, it's just in Saga."
"Will President Watanabe be satisfied?" Otsuka said worriedly.
Nobuhiro Takenaka said: "It's okay, Saga is just a decoration, and the big people above won't understand." β
