Chapter 126 Corporate Atmosphere
The next day, Hideki Hanyu got up in the morning and drove to the Elementary School Building, where he met up with her assistant Reiko Uemura, and when she found Eiri Kitahara in the sales department, she found that Gennori Kumagai from "Weekly Shonen Sunday" was also there.
As soon as they met, Gennori Kumagai handed over a stack of manga manuscript papers.
"Hanyu-san, please see, this is the first four words of the Saint Seiya sent by Cheda-san."
Hideki Hanyu took the sketch with great interest when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to read it, he wanted to see what the "Saint Seiya" that he revised and came out in advance looked like when it was completed.
In order to avoid being too slow to be pulled too far by TV animation like in the previous life, this time the comic studio was built for Che Tian funded by Constellation Culture.
The manga studio hired six manga assistants alone to assist Cheda in his creation.
Therefore, when Hanyu Hideki quickly went through all the sketches, he found that he was obviously more sophisticated and mature than the version in his previous life, and the completion of the manga script provided by him was very good.
"I feel good, when is Kumagai-san going to start serializing?"
"Starting next week, go straight to Weekly Junior Sunday."
Shogakukan treats the comic serials of ordinary new writers, and basically arranges to test the waters in a monthly magazine first, and only when the response is good will it be published in a weekly magazine.
Now that Gennori Kumagai chooses to go directly to the weekly magazine, he is obviously very optimistic about "Saint Seiya".
"It's okay on my side, it's completely arranged by Kumagai-san."
Saying that, Hideki Hanyu didn't forget to remind, "If there are no major problems with the future sketches, Kumagai-san can handle it himself, and he doesn't need to show me." ”
"Okay, when the issue is released, I'll have someone send a copy to Hanyu-san's family."
"Then thank you Kumagai-san, I just happened to save it and I went to buy it."
After Gennori Kumagai and Hideki Hanyu finished chatting about the serialization of "Saint Seiya", they took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.
Hideki Hanyu asked Eiri Kitahara at this time, "Kitahara-san didn't call me over because of Kumagai-san." ”
"Naturally not, Hanyu-san delivered a total of thirteen picture books to me last year, and now all of them have been released, Hanyu-san shouldn't tell me that you are not ready for a new work."
"Of course not, I originally thought that all thirteen parts would be released at the beginning of the year, but I didn't expect them to be sold until March."
"At that moment, I'll go to Manshiya to pick it up myself, and Maeda-san asked me to help ask Hanyu-san if he has any ideas for writing the third volume of the magic confectionery shop."
Hideki Hanyu smiled and asked, "Is it possible that the sales of children's literature and art have declined again?" ”
Hanyu Hideki didn't expect that the sales of "Children's Literature and Art" would be strong for a long time this time.
At the beginning of the year, the second volume of the magical dim sum shop was serialized, and Maeda Muneyoshi didn't come to him until almost April.
"Yes, after Hanyu-san's magical second serialization, the editorial department discovered several new writers, and the effect was very good at the beginning of the serialization, but unfortunately the quality of the work is too unstable, and it has recently fallen back to below 300,000 copies."
"Let Maeda-san wait, there have been a lot of things in the cloud recently, and there are still newcomers in the office who are going to make their debut, so I really don't have time."
In fact, during this period of time, he has been intermittently driving, and he has driven out several stories about the third volume of "Magical Dim Sum Shop".
But it is impossible for the editorial department to give it immediately as soon as he asks for it.
In that case, it is estimated that Maeda Muneyoshi should live in his house in the future to urge the draft.
Besides, the sales of "Children's Literature and Art" haven't fallen below 300,000, and I won't know his importance until it's even worse.
Fuji Channel's "Magical Confectionery Shop" TV animation is in full swing, and it is expected to be broadcast online in June.
At that time, once the ratings are good, the theatrical version used to make money should be put on the agenda, and in order to get more right to speak, he can't cooperate too much with the editorial department.
"Okay, I'll inform Maeda-san that there is one more thing, in honor of the writers of Shinmi Nanyoshi, the Children's Literature Association is going to establish the Shinmi Nanyoshi Children's Literature Award, and we hope that Hanyu-san will participate in the award ceremony as a representative of Shogakukan writers."
"Since it's in honor of Mr. Shinmi Nanyoshi, then I will definitely go."
Shinmi Nanyoshi, born in the neon children's literature enlightenment magazine "Red Bird", is a famous children's literature writer who died young.
Of course, this kind of predecessor must be respected, and besides, Shogakukan let him be the representative of the writers, and he has such a high status, he still has to give face to President Soga.
"Is there anything else going on with Kitahara-san?"
"Not for the time being, didn't Hanyu-san say that he was busy? Why do you want me to arrange a few more interviews or something? ”
"That's not necessary, although I'm very busy, I still have time to invite Kitahara-san to dinner."
"yes, can you eat those two kaiseki dishes that you owe me?"
"Kitahara-san is now making an appointment for Kikunoi, and we can go and eat it in a week."
"Forget it, I don't want to eat something that bothersome, I recently found a Spanish seafood restaurant, their paella is well done, and the Iberian ham is very authentic."
"Kitahara-san is worthy of being a food hunter, it's noon, what are we waiting for, let's eat."
"Okay, I'll be back to the house with you after dinner." Eri Kitahara packs his things.
"Hey! Trouble Kitahara-san to speak completely.,It's to go to Wanshiya with me to get the picture book manuscript.,Kitahara-san said that.,Others will think we're doing something weird.。 ”
Hideki Hanyu emphasized.
In the recent neon literary circle, Hideki Hanyu just ate a big melon, and a well-known senior writer and female screenwriter read the manuscript in the hotel, and the media broke out that he was in an indecent relationship.
If this matter is put on artists, idols or other public figures, it will inevitably be criticized by the media and the public.
But the senior writer just said lightly that the creative pressure was too much, and the female screenwriter revealed the matter on the grounds that she was helping him vent his pressure.
Afterwards, it was the female editor who had an indecent relationship with the senior writer who was fired by the publishing house.
Even the writer's wife came forward to apologize publicly, saying that it was because she did not fulfill her obligations as a wife and failed to relieve the pressure of the writer's husband in time, which led to this incident.
When he saw these news, Hideki Hanyu felt that his three views were shattered, and he didn't know how many times he felt the "tolerance" of neon people towards writers.
But even so, Hideki Hanyu didn't want to emulate this senior.
He's had enough recent scandals, and he really doesn't want to make any other lace news.
"Hanyu-san, why are you so nervous, the two big stars are jealous of Hanyu-san, who would believe that Hanyu-san has something to do with a small staff like me."
"The story made up by Wen Chun, Kitahara-san will also believe it, what kind of person am Kitahara-san is not clear? Also, you don't need to notify me if you want to do any more activities in the Spring and Autumn Period of Literature and Art, I decided to unilaterally block the Spring and Autumn Publishing House of Literature and Art! ”
Thinking of the short story that "Weekly Wenchun" made up for him, Hanyu Hideki couldn't help but be unhappy with the entire Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House.
"Banning the Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House, Hanyu-san doesn't want Naoki to be rewarded? Love Home is a big hit this year. ”
"Naoki Reward...... Forget it, wait until you get the prize and then ban them! ”
"Let's hurry up and eat, and after eating, we will go to Wanshiya with Hanyu-san."
"It's to go to Wanshiya to get the picture book manuscript, and trouble Kitahara-san to tell the whole story."
"Isn't Assistant Uemura with us, it's impossible for someone to misunderstand."
"Hey! Kitahara-san don't just say half of it.,It's to take the picture book manuscript with us.,It's a big misunderstanding if you don't talk about it that way! ”
"Okay, Hanyu-san is a celebrity, and I'm getting used to it."
"Accustomed to what? Kitahara-san, don't say it's like I've done something! ”
"I declare that Hanyu-sensei has not done it."
"Haven't done anything? The more he talked, the stranger it became, Kitahara-san still stopped talking. ”
"It's not strange, it's Hanyu-san who is too nervous, we ......"
On the way to the Spanish seafood restaurant, the two guys who have been partners for a long time don't know how many times they have quarreled, and the little assistant next to him, Reiko Uemura, couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker.
……
Before you know it, the time has entered April, and the neon cherry blossom season has begun.
But for all the employees who work in the cloud painting building, there is no time to enjoy the cherry blossoms at all, and busyness is the only theme.
At the office, after Akina Nakamori finished recording the theme song of the movie "Future", she was ready to start the tour promotion before her debut.
The entire firm is mobilizing relationships with local TV stations that have previously worked with the advertiser to coordinate with the publicity plan developed by Warner Pioneer.
Compared with the cloud entertainment studio, the parent company is busier with the cloud film.
After the successful completion of the filming of the first film work of the cloud screening, it officially entered the intense post-production.
Although Akina Nakamori's debut work is busy, the main force is actually Warner Pioneer, and Yunshang Arts is just beating the side drum.
But the pictures on the cloud are different, the producer is the cloud film, and the Shochiku pictures are just cooperating.
In order to complete the post-production as soon as possible, Shinsuke Ito, the supervisor, personally sat in the editing room, and in addition to going to the toilet, eating, drinking and sleeping were all solved inside.
In addition to post-production, the staff of other cloud screenings also have to follow Shochiku Pictures for pre-screening publicity work.
In the past, they were mainly engaged in the advertising business, and the young employees of cloud film took this opportunity to learn from their colleagues in various films at work.
Whether it is publicity and promotion experience, or post-production experience, all of them are not let go.
The continuous success of the film business on the cloud, the excellent management methods of Asako Hirohashi, and the unstingy salary and bonuses of Hideki Hanyu have made the employees, mainly young people, willing to put in the effort.
The most important thing is that as a newborn enterprise, there is a large talent gap in cloud screening, so as long as you work hard, you will have the opportunity to be promoted, which is even more exciting for these young people.
The vigorous and hard-working spirit of cloud screening from top to bottom makes Shimazu Kiyoshi, the producer of "Love, Go Home", very envious.
Shimazu Kiyoshi is a person who likes to do things in a down-to-earth manner, but although the company where he works is Shochiku Pictures is far more powerful than the cloud paintings, it has been established for a long time after all.
The staff structure of Shochiku Pictures has been stabilized, and the employees lack the motivation to strive upward, and most of them are corpse vegetarian meals, and they are just mixed with qualifications.
Working with these young people in the cloud film made Shimazu Kiyoshi feel a passion that he hadn't experienced for a long time, which he had not experienced when he worked with his colleagues in Shochiku Pictures.
And Shimazu Kiyoshi has the same feeling, and through the introduction of Shota Yoshioka, he made an appointment to visit Hideki Hanyu.
Nagato's appointment was in the afternoon, but he avoided being late and arrived early at the lunch break.
When Daiyuki Nagato came to the Cloud Screening Building, he found that the employees who were supposed to take a break at noon were busier than when they were working.
Seeing these people seem to be full of infinite energy, and even spend their rest time studying and working, it undoubtedly gave Nagato a great shock.
It's no wonder that in just one year, the cloud film has been able to gain a firm foothold in the industry, and it has quickly expanded its business from advertising to movies, and is even learning animation production.
Before coming here, he had carefully investigated everything about the paintings on the clouds.
It is undeniable that the success of the cloud film is because those four partners are good enough.
The talented producer Hideki Hanyu, the budding manager Asako Hirohashi, the one-man Shinsuke Ito, who oversees the project in the clouds, and his old friend Shota Yoshioka, who is a skilled communicator.
But after seeing these employees who are studying and working hard, Nagato Daiyuki feels that the cloud screening will only be more successful in the future, because in addition to the excellent founders, they also have such a high-spirited corporate atmosphere.
Nagato Daiyuki thought so, and seeing that the appointed time was still early, he walked out of the reception room and looked around curiously.
Before he knew it, he walked to an office near the door, where an employee was sitting, looking down and busy with something, not noticing the arrival of Nagato Daiyuki.
This is a handsome-looking young male employee with glasses, who should have just graduated from college.
Nagato Daiyuki discovers that the other party is seriously fiddling with a strange thing.
A Nintendo GAME &WATCH game console that has been completely disassembled, and the circuit board is all exposed.
But this young employee did not simply take the game console apart, but after dismantling it, it was modified, and the Game&Watch was connected to another circuit board with wiring.
I saw that the young man didn't know how to operate it a few times, and a feather-shaped pattern appeared on the screen of the Game&Watch, fluttering one by one, constantly changing directions.
This kind of operation is very interesting for the long people who don't understand electronic technology.
And just when Nagato Daiyuki was fascinated by it, suddenly a clear voice came from beside him.
"Is this the same game console that the crew used to shoot before? Didn't Ito-san say it was broken? ”
Nagato Daiyuki was startled by the sudden sound, and turned his neck to find that there was a person standing next to him at some point.
If you look closely, it is not someone else standing next to him, it is Hideki Hanyu who he is going to visit today.
"Hanyu-san, I'm Daiyuki Nagato, and I'm sorry to disturb the work of your employees."
When Hanyu Hideki heard this, he couldn't help but look carefully at the man who spoke.
He looks like he is in his thirties, of medium height, and he looks very energetic, and his eyes reveal shrewdness.
I didn't expect the other party to be Nagato Daiyu.
"It doesn't matter, it's time to rest, Nagato-san, I'm very happy to see you."
Hanyu Hideki had just returned from lunch outside, and when he entered the door, he saw Nagato Daiyuki standing next to the office at the door, engrossed in what he was looking at, and he came over to take a look in curiosity.
It turns out that his employees are fiddling with a Game & Watch console, which he still knows.
Because he bought this game console himself, a joint model of Nintendo Game &Watch and Mickey Mouse, he bought it back to make props for Masao in the movie.
However, before the movie started, he was bored and played a few times by himself, and accidentally broke a corner of the game console, but it did not affect the use.
Shinsuke Ito felt that such a game console was more realistic, so he didn't ask to buy a new one.
It's a pity that the game console didn't last until the end of filming, and it broke down during the filming of the movie.
It was because of the corner he broke that he recognized that the game console that was disassembled in the hands of the young employee was the one he bought before.
Because of the idea of the game console, I didn't take a closer look at Nagato Daiyuki, and I thought it was an employee who was pictured on the cloud.
And just as he was greeting Daiyuki Nagato, the young employee also put down what he was holding and got up to answer to Hideki Hanyu.
"Hanyu-sama, this is the broken prop console, because I happen to know a little bit of electronics, so I wanted to see if I could fix it."
"You're majoring in electronics?" Hideki Hanyu asked.
"No, I graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts with a degree in fine arts, and I taught myself electronics because I was interested." The young employee answered honestly.
"I didn't see you before I went to the Big Boat Photography Agency? Which department are you. ”
"I just joined the club last month, and now I'm an employee in the post-production department."
Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu pointed to the disassembled game console, "Have you fixed this thing?" It looks like there's a picture. ”
"It's not fixed.,There's a picture because it's been remodeled a little.,I heard Director Ito say that I wanted to make a feather fluttering intro.,I wanted to see if I could use this broken game console screen to show it.,Try programming it myself.,The result is not very good.。
"You can code?" Hideki Hanyu asked in surprise.
"A little bit of self-study."
The young man was clearly humble.
In Hanyu Hideki's view, those who can do this in this era are great gods.
What's more, this one is still on a broken machine, using such a rudimentary means to make the picture, although he doesn't know anything about programming, but he also has a feeling of not knowing how to be aware.
From beginning to end, the young employee spoke clearly, with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was not nervous because he was facing his big boss.
This made Hanyu Hideki couldn't help but ask the other party, "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Tetsuya Aragaki."
