Chapter 209: Character and Original Case

"These three are the new members of this project?"

The next day, Hao Ping took the three girls of his family to the IM office again, and saw three new faces from a distance.

In addition to the champions, runners-up and third runners-up, who have nothing to fear because of their high rankings, these few basically have the opportunity to sign a contract and will naturally not let it go, and when Miyagawa Mumi found it, she simply persuaded the three of them to sign a contract.

These three were originally the three people selected when Tomoe Uehara and Hao Ping discussed.

"Let me introduce you." After Miyagawa Mumi saw Hao Ping and the three of them arrive, she introduced to the new three: "These three are Miss Amamiya Seven, Miss Ami Aono and Miss Michiko Yasumen, who were originally scheduled to participate in this project. In the future, you will have to work together. ”

Then he introduced the three new people to Hao Ping.

In addition to Chiba Emi and Aki Miyashita, there is also a girl named Tachikawa Mai.

The three new little girls looked around, and next to them were Mako Hayakawa, Yui Kurata, and Kumi Kido from the IM firm that they had seen before, plus Amamiya Qi, Ami Aono, and Michiko Yasumo, all of whom were involved in this project.

Theoretically, they are also their "predecessors".

Japan is a society that attaches great importance to class, and the word "senior" has a very high energy, which is not much higher than the seniors and seniors who shout at random in domestic universities.

The three girls naturally didn't dare to hold it up, and said hello to the six "seniors" well.

"You get to know each other first, and then you have to work together in the future, and it's good to get to know each other." Miyagawa Mumi brought the three new arrivals to the office to meet or something, and the main thing, of course, was to continue to arrange the second half of the project with Hao Ping.

Theoretically, the first half of the project has been completed very well, and the name "Love Live Contest" is already the first step in the IP hype.

The next step, of course, is to continue to use this IP to make money.

Leaving the three of them where they were, and letting the nine girls who were about to start working together communicate with each other, he followed Miyagawa Kimi towards Uehara's office.

Uehara Tomoe was already waiting in the office, and when she saw Hao Ping walking in, she smiled and said, "Coming?" ”

"Here we are." Hao Ping also nodded, it could be seen that Uehara Yuhui was in a good mood, and the mentality of yesterday's signing failure had been almost sorted out.

Tomoe Uehara handed the document at hand to Miyagawa Kimi: "This is next week's final, if they are willing to sign, then sign, if they are unwilling, let them fend for themselves." If Lantis were willing to pick up trash, let them do as well. ”

Judging from her tone, even if the champion, runner-up and runner-up are now willing to sign a contract, she will engage in a wave of refrigeration or something.

After Miyagawa Mumi went out, Yue Uehara said to Hao Ping again: "We have already said that they will help with the composition and lyrics, and in the future, the records on our side will be entrusted to their company to produce and sell." ”

This was originally agreed with Lantis at the beginning, and there is nothing to say.

"I'll get in touch with the magazine." Tomoe Uehara continued, "I would like to ...... about the character design."

However, before the words fell, he was interrupted by Hao Ping: "Character design, I want to introduce someone over, is it okay?" ”

"Huh?" Uehara Tomoe was puzzled, "Hao Pingjun, do you still know a familiar character designer?" ”

"Hmm......" Hao Ping nodded.

Just when Yue Uehara mentioned character design, Hao Ping suddenly remembered Zhou Jing, who is still studying comics with Ryo Watanabe, a manga artist, and it is right to say that he is studying, but in fact, he is mainly an assistant.

Judging from the recent contact with Hao Ping, Ryo Watanabe seems to be quite satisfied with him, and has begun to try to help recommend to the publishing house to let Zhou Jing independently draw short stories to test the waters in the magazine, but there has been no result yet.

In this case, why not Zhou Jing participate in the character designers this time? There is a familiar friend in the project, and after this project is completed, Zhou Jing should also be famous.

It's rare to find a close friend in a foreign country, and Zhou Jing also helped him a lot last time, Hao Ping wanted to pull him along.

But after explaining Zhou Jing's matter to Uehara Tomoe, Uehara Tomoe frowned: "Cartoonist......"

"What's wrong?" Hao Ping looked at Uehara Tomoe in embarrassment and was puzzled. Can't you go through the back door and install your own people, but you are also a "shareholder" of this project.

"It's not like that, in fact, there is a certain difference between a character designer and a cartoonist." Tomoe Uehara explained, "But the Mr. Zhou that Hao Pingjun said seems to be just a ...... Rookie cartoonist. ”

She actually wanted to say the word "cartoonist assistant", but considering Hao Ping's feelings, she promoted her to become a "rookie cartoonist".

Although the words are very tactful, Yue Uehara understands very well that Zhou Jing may not be good enough to take on the responsibility of character design.

Hao Ping thought about it for a while, Uehara Tomoe's words are actually very reasonable, their purpose is to develop the project of "two-dimensional virtual idol", for this project, character design is a very important and core thing, which is really not suitable if it is arranged for a rookie cartoonist.

Just imagine, if a virtual idol even has a broken character, how can he cheat the house money...... No, how can you like it?

"In this way, Hao Pingjun might as well let your friend come to the office to give it a try, if not, let him be an assistant under the character designer first, how about it?" Tomoe Uehara also took Hao Ping's thoughts into account and said.

This is actually a very euphemistic refusal, but Hao Ping can't say anything.

"That's good." Hao Ping nodded, in fact, the so-called assistant means to let Zhou Jing learn from the character designer and be an apprentice.

Hao Ping was unexpectedly good at talking, which made Uehara Tomoe quite happy, and he didn't forget to put a satellite: "If Mr. Zhou's skills behind him keep up, we can leave a character for him to design." ”

In this way, Hao Ping was already very satisfied.

Originally, he just wanted Zhou Jing to gain some popularity on this project, as long as the popularity of this project comes up, with the name of "love live character designer", I believe that comic magazines and publishing houses will also take a look at him.

After this matter was settled, and some other things were discussed with Uehara Tomoe, Hao Ping was ready to leave.

"Ah, by the way, Hao Pingjun ......" Hao Ping was about to leave, but Uehara Yuhui stopped him, "In addition to the magazine this time, there may be a simultaneous launch, about this ......"

“…… I'll come up with the original case, but for the specific content of the writing, Miss Uehara may have to find someone else. Hao Ping hurriedly cleared up.

After being ridiculed by Haruka Asami for her "script" last time, he already knew very well that his own Japanese level was okay for chatting, and writing was basically hopeless.

He still expects this to make him money, how can he ruin the work himself?

In terms of this, he took out the whole direction and asked Yue Uehara to contact the professional light family to complete it.

"That's fine, but Hao Pingjun's original case will be marked on the work." I don't know why, Hao Ping always felt that Yue Uehara seemed to be relieved.

However, the original case......

Hao Ping suddenly fell in love with the profession of the original case, and he only needed to be responsible for the background and world view outline and the like, and the rest was left to the specific family, cartoonists, and scripters, and the works could still be hung under his own name, which was simply beautiful.
