Chapter 707: It's New Year

On the third day after the reunion, Jikong brought the Nine Muses to Musashino Animation. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The script was eventually written according to his wishes, and after he had made great efforts to clarify the interests involved, Muse finally compromised.

In Ji Kong's words, this is just an animation after all, not reality, so there is no need to take it so seriously.

"This is not just an animation production, but also a bold attempt, the combination of two-dimensional idols and three-dimensional idols, which is an attempt that no one has ever tried before, regardless of success or failure, at least let people in the industry remember our name."

"I know that many people here actually don't have confidence in this project, but think about it carefully, in the early stage, we can use the popularity of the muse in the third dimension to drive the popularity of the animation in the second dimension, and after the animation becomes popular, we can use the popularity of the animation to drive the popularity of the muse in the third dimension, and the combination of the two, its economic benefits are not comparable to a single at all!"

"Also, I'm in charge of the planning of this anime, so please work together to make Musashino even better today!"

In a burst of crackling applause, Ji Kong ended his speech, and then the meeting ended, Ji Kong handed over the muse to the original artists in the company, and they had to design the animation character of the muse in a short time.

In fact, there was not a lot of time to make the animation "Love Live", because Muse only had time to assist in the animation during the winter vacation.

Wait for the school to start in more than a month, even if the muses are willing, but their parents are definitely unwilling, after all, whether it is idol activities or animation production, it must be carried out under the premise of ensuring their studies.

Fortunately, because in this world, the three-dimensional and two-dimensional painting styles are similar, so the image of the muse can be animated with only a slight modification, so it doesn't take too much effort.

After the meeting, Ji Kong and Watanabe Hayabusa, an online producer of Musashino Animation, a man in his nearly thirty years old, walked together.

He consciously lagged half a step behind Ji Kong, and said with a smile: "Originally, everyone was skeptical about this project, but after hearing that the president was in charge himself, everyone became full of confidence again." ”

What he said is not pure sycophancy, Ji Kong has debuted so far, including games, animation, comics, and novels, a total of six works have been released, each of which has been a great success, and even the B station and post bar he founded are now the industry's leading portals.

The phrase "produced by Mr. Kong must be a high-quality product" has now become the consensus of the industry, so as soon as they heard that the project was personally handled by Ji Kong, the employees were immediately full of confidence, as if victory was close at hand.

"Animation production still depends on everyone's efforts, and I can't do it alone, all in all, you guys should do their best!"

Ji Kong patted Watanabe Hayabusa on the shoulder and said to him encouragingly.

……

Musashino animation made such a big move naturally can't hide it from the outside world, and soon, a Musashino animation will be themed on a three-dimensional campus idol, and the news of making an animation spread in the industry, causing an uproar.

Not surprisingly, many people are not optimistic about their project

A certain media even bluntly said: "Mr. Kong has been carried away by the success all the time, and it seems that it is time for an unforgettable failure to sober him up a little." ”

But people with real insight are keenly aware of the business opportunities, but when they want to follow suit, they find that it doesn't work at all.

Because they don't have a muse!

The core of the "Love Live" anime project this time is not in Jiku, nor in Musashino, but in the muse!

Although they failed in the previous love live competition, the shady scenes that were immediately revealed made Muse's popularity even higher, and now they are a phenomenal campus idol team, and their fans are very young, and they are all the audience of two-dimensional products, which is the guarantee that they can enter the two-dimensional product.

On the other hand, other campus idol groups simply don't have enough fame to support them.

As for the more big-name idol artists, most of them are in their early twenties, how can they enter the second dimension?

Didn't you see that the main characters in the anime are all high school students?

……

This winter holiday season has not been easy.

In addition to accompanying the muse to Musashino every day to make animations, I also have to prepare for the annual winter comic convention.

This year's Winter Comic Con will be held from December 29th to 31st, to be more specific, that is, two weeks after the holiday.

But before the start of Winter Comic Con, he still has other things to do - because the Chinese New Year is just around the corner!

Unlike China, which still uses the old calendar (lunar calendar), Japan uses the new calendar (solar calendar) in this plane, which means that Japan is about to celebrate the New Year!

Although it will be a little troublesome because of the different algorithms of the festival, Ji Kong still likes this, at least he can accompany Kasumigaoka Shiyu and them for the New Year here in Japan, and then go back to Huaxia to accompany his grandfather for the New Year.

As the head of the family, Ji Kong was also very busy before the Chinese New Year.

In addition to the regular stocking of New Year's goods, there are also some Japanese customs that need to be followed.

First of all, on December 27th and 28th, we have to do a big cleaning, which not only means cleaning, but also to wash away mildew.

After cleaning to arrange the New Year decoration, this is the same as the Chinese New Year hanging Spring Festival couplets paste the word blessing is a meaning, according to the custom, Ji Kong bought the door pine, note the rope, break the magic arrow, grass rake, New Year's painting, mirror cake and so on.

The door pine is placed in front of the house in order to let the gods descend on the house.

Note rope is used to block the invasion of evil spirits, which is derived from the Chinese New Year reed rope.

The Demon Breaker Arrow is usually hung above the shrine, meaning to destroy the demon.

The grass rake is called "bear hand" in Japanese, which means to grasp good fortune and acts like a blessing fence for the New Year on the Korean Peninsula.

And after all this, the Winter Comic Con began as scheduled.

Different from the last summer comic con, this winter comic con season is a commercial booth.

But whether it is a commercial booth or a fandom booth, his works are the most sought-after and largest level, and less than three hours after the start of "Holy War", his "Fate/Stay Night" game, "Fate/Zero" novel, and as many as 10,000 copies of merchandise were quickly sold out.

This is because many fans chatted with him, otherwise the time would have been shorter!

On the second day of the comic exhibition, that is, on December 30th, Ji Kong did not go to the comic exhibition venue again, but made rice cakes with Shiina and Mahaku at home.

On the evening of December 31, Japan's Chinese New Year's Eve officially arrived.
