Chapter Eighty-Six: Talk Before Playing
On July 3rd, "The Flying Witch" premiered on Kyoto TV late at night.
Unlike the previous "Black Rock Shooter", there is no doubt that Mad Poihat's staff paid more attention to "The Flying Witch", even though the latter lagged far behind the latter in terms of average production budget per minute, followed by the density of paintings, intensity, and tension.
The reason is first of all that the animation "Witch" is a standard 12 words in terms of duration, and it needs to be broadcast for three months; Secondly, Mad Poihat invested money in this anime, not only to show that it really belongs to the company's anime, but also because its response and sales are closely related to everyone at Mad Poihat.
The production team poured different emotions into the two animations, and they basically didn't have any other ideas than that they needed to survive with the Black Rock Shooter, but now they hope that "The Witch" can produce results.
It's not because people are too business-minded, it's because Mad Poihat needs these things now.
The reaction of the flying witch will also affect everyone's confidence in the future IS.
Miyadai also hopes that this animation can further explain his "correctness" and firmly establish a kind of "I'm awesome" rush in the company, which can be regarded as a way of leadership.
Because of this "significance", when "The Flying Witch" began to be broadcast, most of the company's production staff were crammed into that small conference room, and it was exaggerated to say that it felt like waiting for the movie to premiere...... Even though it was close to the wee hours of the morning.
The group stuffed the conference room like a can of sardines, and the table was full of snacks brought by the employees.
…… Even the 2nd team of the production team who is working on IS stayed here to join in the fun.
"So-kun, I heard that your final grades in the first semester were particularly dismal?" Iwami Mai asked Miyadai Song beside her...... Although everyone sat quite casually at this time, the people who should be burned were still next to each other.
Rinka-senpai used public funds to buy a lot of potato chips and other things to put here, but she had no intention of eating a slice herself...... The bloody facts told her that it was best to stay away from such fried foods.
"Senior sister, it's not as miserable as you say, I'm stuck above the passing line." Gong Daisang didn't have enough evidence to refute it, and then he could only change his words and say, "Okay, compared to your senior year of high school, I must be miserable." ”
"But don't compare projects that have already been abandoned, that's unfair to me. And as long as Suzuki-san has no opinion, then I'm fine. "Gong Daiju didn't want to get any school grades at all, and it would be really strange if he could still get high grades in this situation.
Kayuko Suzuki will continue to be the guardian of Miyadai for a while, so he uses such a joking statement...... But in fact, with the maturity of Miyadai's performance, it is impossible for Suzuki to "discipline" him.
"So-kun, have you really considered not continuing your studies? Depending on your previous grades, it's okay to go to a national university with a little effort. Although she is only a nominal guardian, Suzuki is also a guardian, and every semester she receives a transcript from the school that Miyakona sends in hand.
Of course, the statement "just work a little hard" is still a bit exaggerated, and it can only be said that he is more promising, so Suzuki expressed surprise that Miyadai made such a simple decision not to go to school.
"I admit that college is still important to a person, but it's a 'seize the day' moment for me and for Mad Poihat, so it's a priority...... If you have the opportunity in the future, you can go back to school. Miyadai said.
He admits that college makes sense, but the point is that he has already been to college once, and there is no need to repeat it. In fact, as he said, if his personality, knowledge, and abilities are as sound as he is, then there is really no need to go to university.
While the education of such a person who does not need to continue his education is being discussed here, Kawaranai and Yukiko Ryugen over there are also talking about other things.
"Yukiko, how is the performance of the work 'Witch'?"
"In general, the supervised storyboard is a little too detailed, which makes my work a lot easier, but I don't need to play too much, and the way of daily performances doesn't need to be so 'whimsical', the characters are naturally the most important." Long Yuan said.
"Really? However, you're almost done with your performance, and you're ready to put you in charge of some more comprehensive work. ”
"Comprehensive work...... Do you mean 'overseer'? ”
From performance to supervision, this is a change that many people are looking forward to.
Long Yuan has been responsible for the production of some short films before, but he is the supervisor of the drama...... Will the opportunity come so quickly?
"Overseer." Chuan Lankui sighed with emotion.
If you want to say who is the most tired and the most complicated work during this time, it must be her as the production director. Although Mad Poihat's production department has been split, since there is no suitable candidate for the time being, she is still managing all the production, and it is enough to urge and receive the manuscript according to the requirements of the production process...... Not every production can be as shameless as the previous Gong Dai, so shameless as to force the original artist to marry in order to get the manuscript.
…………
And when I turned back to Gong Daiyu's side, the topic of going to school passed quickly because of his abandonment of treatment, and they were now talking about other things.
"So-kun, the final funds for the 'Flying Witch' have been secured, but ...... It's better for you to pay attention to it in the future, and it's better not to let me interfere with private funds, right? Sister Rinka whispered in the ear of Gong Daiyu.
The final production cost of "The Flying Witch" came from the royalty income of Hatsune Miku's six songs, and from December to now, their total paid downloads have really exceeded 600,000 times as Miyayo had predicted, with an average of more than 100,000 downloads per song...... Although this seems a bit mediocre, it is quite good for an anime-like song.
The situation that any song can exceed 100,000 seems to only happen to "afternoon tea after class".
With this money, the production of "The Flying Witch" is more than enough, but the problem is that the money does not belong to Mad Poihat, but the private property of Miyadai Sonata "The Flying Witch" should be regarded as a kind of loan that must be repaid if the "Flying Witch" uses this money.
Therefore, Iwami needs to make it clear that she is the producer of Mad Poihat, and she is not the private financial manager of Miyadai, so it stands to reason that this fund should not be recovered by her.
The process should be that Miyadai asked ListenNepster to take the money, and then Iwami Mai asked Miyadai to take the money, but now Iwami Mai directly asked ListenNepster to take the money, and she is equivalent to being the agent of Miyadai...... What kind of business is this?
The relationship between the two parties is not close to this extent.
"I'm sorry senior, I was busy with exams before, and although I have given up my studies, I don't want to repeat a grade in high school, so I entrusted you with things a little hastily......"
"But it's a very simple thing, senior sister, don't bring the topic to ambiguity, it's a bit of a mistake."
Gong Daisa thought to himself, am I still short of these tens of millions?
cough, this is the truth, he is hundreds of millions short - whether it is an animated film to be produced or a drama, the amount of funds used is calculated in the unit of 100 million.
“……”
Rinka-senpai opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything, or she didn't want to pay attention to this person for a while.
Who is messing around with the direction of the topic?
