Chapter 146: UNIQLO and "Magical Snack Shop" TV Animation Broadcast
"That's right, it's Toriyama-san." Kazuhiko Torishima answered Hideki Hanyu's question.
When Hideki Hanyu heard Akira Toriyama's manga, the first thing that came to his mind was, of course, "Dragon Ball".
In Neon, Akira Toriyama and Dragon Ball are definitely names that can go down in manga history.
Isn't there a saying that when Goku first transforms into a Super Saiyan, all anime is eclipsed.
Therefore, Shueisha wanted to cooperate with him, but he still worked with Akira Toriyama and Hideki Hanyu except for "Dragon Ball".
"I don't have an idea if this can give me a little time."
But he's not in a hurry, Akira Toriyama is now making a lot of money with Aralei, and if it weren't for the editor's request, I'm afraid he wouldn't even want to paint Dragon Ball.
Therefore, even if we cooperate, we will not have to be sure now.
Besides, it takes time for him to prepare things like text scripts and original comics.
"Absolutely." This time it was the Shueisha representative who spoke.
Hearing that Hideki Hanyu was considering cooperation, a look of excitement immediately appeared on the other party's face.
"Mr. Hanyu, for the next cooperation, the editor of Torishima will dock with you, and if there are any conditions for cooperation, you can also put it forward."
The Shueisha representatives were a little impatient.
"The cooperation requirements are the same as those of the Shogakukan, so I won't explain too much about that."
Hideki Hanyu's attitude is very clear, if he cooperates, he must share the copyright proceeds.
If he just earns manuscript fees and takes the royalties of a single book, then he might as well not cooperate.
If you don't care about the opinions of outsiders, in fact, as long as you can get peripheral income, all the income from the manga single book can be given to Akira Toriyama.
In his previous life, he had seen Bandai Namco's financial reports, and in the first half of 2022 alone, Dragon Ball generated more than 65 billion yen in revenue for Bandai Namco worldwide.
In Toei, "Dragon Ball" supports more than half of the animation revenue.
The first comic IP is so terrifying, how can it be in vain.
Compared with such a terrifying peripheral income, the royalties of the single comic book are really a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, he must control the surrounding copyright, and it is important to make money, but this super IP is more important for the development of his club.
"I know this very well, please rest assured that Hanyu-sensei." Of course, the Shueisha representative knows the rules of working with Hideki Hanyu.
In Shueisha's view, it is undoubtedly more convenient to cooperate with Hideki Hanyu directly than Hideki Hanyu to cooperate with them through the Shogakukan.
After all, Masami Sada is a manga artist at Shueisha, but Hideki Hanyu is a free body.
It's better to share two than four, isn't it?
Leaving the contact information of Kazuhiko Torishima, Hideki Hanyu promised him that if he had an idea here, he would contact Kazuhiko Torishima immediately.
After bidding farewell to the Shueisha people, Hideki Hanyu put this matter behind him, after all, he was in a hurry and didn't have a work now, so he might as well be busy with other things first.
For example, the cooperation proposal that was sent to Mrs. Tanaka was a very important thing in his opinion.
The reason why he made up his mind to take a huge loan to take over the shops in Ginza is also related to this cooperation.
It's just that Mrs. Tanaka didn't reply for a long time after reading the cooperation plan, and it wasn't until today that she had a reaction.
According to the information he heard from Yukio Tanaka, Mrs. Tanaka looked through his plan book I don't know how many times, and seemed to be very interested.
This gave him a lot of confidence in this meeting.
Driving to Tanaka's house, Hideki Hanyu entered the door and saw Yukio Tanaka with a shrugging face, as if he was not in a good mood.
"What's wrong with Yukio-san? So unhappy. Hanyu asked curiously.
"Hey, don't mention it, since you sent that proposal, my mother only needs to read it once, and she counts me down once."
Speaking of this, Yukio Tanaka asked Hideki Hanyu curiously, "What is written in Hanyu-kun's plan book that makes my mother so fascinated by it." β
"I thought Yukio-san had seen it secretly."
"After my mother got it, she kept it with her, and I didn't have a chance to watch it at all."
"Then let's wait for Mrs. Tanaka to finish reading it, if the plan is finished in detail, I'm afraid it will be delayed for a long time, Yukio-san should take me to see Mrs. Tanaka first."
Hideki Hanyu is now anxious to see Mrs. Tanaka.
"Anyway, you're going to say it later, I'll know when I hear it."
After Yukio Tanaka finished speaking, he took Hideki Hanyu to the living room to meet his mother.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Tanaka." Hideki Hanyu greeted politely.
Not to mention that he is an elder, the experience of the other party when he was young, Hanyu Hideki also admires it very much, which is enough for him to respect.
Mrs. Tanaka looked at Hideki Hanyu and said with a smile, "Good afternoon, Hanyu-san, has Akiko been living with Hanyu-kun recently?" β
Hanyu Hideki didn't expect that the other party would ask him about it after greeting him.
Akiko is Hitomi Kuroki's real name, and Mrs. Tanaka asked naturally Hitomi Kuroki.
But since they have deceived other people's nieces, even if they are far away, they can't help but admit it.
Therefore, Hideki Hanyu replied very honestly, "Yes, Hitomi-chan is performing in Tokyo these days and lives with me." β
"That's good, I used to take care of that child when he came to Tokyo, but now I'm going to trouble Hanyu-san."
"Don't worry, Mrs. Tanaka, I'll take care of Hitomi-chan."
Hideki Hanyu is also a guarantee, at least for now, he will be responsible for Hitomi Kuroki.
As for what will happen in the future, he can't guarantee it, after all, there is such a thing as feelings, sometimes he can't go on with his own efforts.
"I read Hanyu-san's collaboration plan."
After the polite rambling at the beginning, Mrs. Tanaka finally got to the point.
Neon people are not good at this, no matter how important things are, they have to be polite and small talk for a while at the beginning.
"What does Mrs. Tanaka think of the proposal?" Hideki Hanyu asked.
"If my understanding is correct, Xiushu-kun wants to create a self-storage clothing store similar to America."
"That's right." Hideki Hanyu nodded.
The cooperation plan he proposed was the Uniqlo that had been brewing in his heart since he first met Yanai Masahou.
Different from UNIQLO in later generations, UNIQLO was influenced by the convenient and fast warehouse-style clothing stores around American universities at the beginning of its birth.
"Ke Ling seems to have added the concept of affordable fashion to the form of a warehouse-style clothing store, don't you think there is a contradiction between fashion and price?"
Mrs. Tanaka raised her doubts about the proposal.
"It seems contradictory, but in fact, this is our selling point, the warehouse clothing store, which will make customers feel like a trendy clothing store from America, and we want to give customers the feeling that we want to make high-quality fashion that ordinary people can wear, rather than cheap and inferior clothes."
"How?" Mrs. Tanaka was a little confused.
"Hiring designers and borrowing from big brands, we only produce high-quality basics, so that customers will feel familiar when they see them, and the quality is not low, but the fashion clothing is affordable."
Hideki Hanyu was not shy about copying the idea of big-name luxury goods, and Mrs. Tanaka, as a mature businessman, was even more unimpressed.
"I see that Hanyu-san's future plans for the brand are not fixed."
"Of course, in the early stage, we will open the market with affordable fashion, and then we will strengthen our design and research and development strength, and gradually form a real brand style."
"Is it like a neon car?" Mrs. Tanaka asked.
"That's right." Hideki Hanyu replied.
Neon's automobile industry also copied America and Germany from the beginning, and after opening up the market, it gradually talked about technology and originality.
Historically, Uniqlo even relied on giving away free milk bread for breakfast to attract customers at first, but it has not gradually formed its own brand style.
No matter what, it has to change over time, and standing still will only die.
"Hanyu-san has you figured out where to open his first store?"
"Ginza, of course."
Hideki Hanyu finished speaking and began to explain.
"What we want to do is affordable but high-quality basic fashion, not low-quality clothes, so we have to do a good job of positioning at the beginning, and the opening of the first store in Ginza is to give customers a feeling that we are a powerful business."
In the previous life, Uniqlo's first store opened in Hiroshima, although there were many reasons.
However, it is undeniable that it has cost a lot to improve the impression of customers in order to get out of Hiroshima.
Now that you have the opportunity, why not just do it in one step.
"There's ...... about design."
Mrs. Tanaka continued to ask questions about the proposal.
Hideki Hanyu also explained one by one based on his thoughts.
The two talked about this plan for almost two hours.
In the end, Mrs. Tanaka seemed to approve of Hanyu's plan and asked one last question.
"To be fast, to be affordable, but also to create a high-quality sense of fashion, which requires strong management experience, and Tanaka Garment alone cannot meet Hanyu-san's needs."
"Mrs. Tanaka should be able to guess that I want to cooperate with Yanai-san through Mrs. Tanaka." Hideki Hanyu doesn't hide it either.
"Yanai family, your business philosophy is very similar to the recent reform of Xiaojun business by the child of the Yanai family."
Mrs. Tanaka glanced thoughtfully at Hideki Hanyu.
She thought to herself, is it possible that good people think about problems in the same way.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Tanaka looked at Yukio Tanaka, who was sitting next to her.
His son, who is not angry, was very interested in listening to them talk about the plan just now.
But it didn't take long for Yukio Tanaka to get interested, and he was lying in front of the TV and devoting himself to TV Tokyo's swimsuit conference.
On the screen, Nahoko Kawai was wearing a light blue swimsuit, and her proud figure was revealed, and Yukio Tanaka almost drooled when she watched it.
Heyβ
Mrs. Tanaka sighed, if it weren't for Hanyu Hideki here, she would probably immediately take the wooden sword and educate this son who didn't grow up fiercely.
Thinking that her son might still have to be taken care of by Hideki Hanyu in her 100th year, Mrs. Tanaka paid special attention to the plan in hand.
"Hanyu-san, look at how this is, you and the Tanaka family will jointly register this club first, and then I will go to the Yanai family in the name of the club to cooperate."
The reason why Mrs. Tanaka did this was also to reassure Hideki Hanyu.
She will not leave Hideki Hanyu behind and work alone with the Yanai family.
"No problem."
Of course, Hideki Hanyu could hear what the other party meant.
In fact, he was not afraid that the other party would do that, after all, this plan was only a rough idea, and many details were in his head.
Besides, now it's just a collaboration to open a clothing store.
Even if he told Mrs. Tanaka and Yanai Masa, this store would help us become the richest man in neon in the future, it is estimated that the two of them would only regard him as fools.
"Hanyu-san has come up with a name to register?" Mrs. Tanaka asked.
"IT'S CALLED UNIQUE CLOTHING WAREHOUSE."
"It's hard to remember such a long name."
"The name of the store is simply UNICLO."
Hanyu Hideki said this, took the plan book, took out a pencil and drew it quickly.
The rustling pencil sketch sound also attracted the attention of Yukio Tanaka.
He took a closer look and found that Hideki Hanyu had drawn a square logo, and three of the six letters UNICLO were arranged separately.
"The design of the logo will be white on a red background, and I think it will be eye-catching."
Hideki Hanyu picked up the logo and showed it to Mrs. Tanaka.
Who would have thought that Yukio Tanaka interjected at this time, "The first C in the second row looks a little awkward, so it's better to change it to Q, it should look very pleasing to the eye." β
When Mrs. Tanaka heard this, she immediately glared at her son angrily, "This is the abbreviation, what is it if you change it to Q." β
Who wants Hanyu Hideki to hear this, but he put down the plan and changed C to Q with a few brushes.
"I also think Q looks more pleasing to the eye."
UNIQLOγ
Looking at this name, Hideki Hanyu suddenly realized that this is the real Uniqlo.
Hanyu Hideki didn't know that the reason why the abbreviation of Uniqlo in his previous life changed C to Q was because a seller in Xiangjiang accidentally wrote C as Q when he registered in Xiangjiang.
As a result, after Yanai found out, instead of blaming the seller, he spent a lot of money to change the C of all the stores to Q.
Because Yanai thinks that in the trademark, Q looks cooler and more eye-catching than C.
Now, because of Yukio Tanaka's mistake, UNIQLO's logo has returned to what it should be.
"Okay, I'm old, I really can't understand the thoughts of you young people, since Hanyu-san has thought about it, then hurry up and register, and I'll go to Yanai's house to talk about cooperation."
In Mrs. Tanaka's opinion, whether it is Q or C, it seems to be the same.
After speaking, she looked at her son, "Yukio, if you register, you can go with Hanyu-san." β
"Okay." Yukio Tanaka happily agreed.
Yukio Tanaka only felt that his mother seemed to trust him again, but he didn't realize that his mother was leaving a way out for his future.
"Then we'll be in trouble with Hanyu-san." Mrs. Tanaka looked at Hideki Hanyu.
"It's easy to register a club, but the next cooperation is important, and it's the trouble that Mrs. Tanaka is right."
Hideki Hanyu said politely.
Ending the conversation with Mrs. Tanaka, Hideki Hanyu took Yukio Tanaka to Mitomo Accounting Firm.
Seeing that the two big customers were coming, Sanyou Mingxiong hurriedly received them warmly and asked what was the matter.
It turned out that it was just a new club, which was a bit disappointing.
It's just that Hanyu Hideki has either bought an entertainment club recently, or bought a store in Ginza at a high price, and his appetite has been completely raised.
However, although it is a trivial matter, in the face of the two bigwigs, Sanyou Mingxiong still arranges competent employees to deal with this matter as soon as possible.
Someone helped run errands, and Hideki Hanyu ignored it after submitting the information.
Leaving the Sanyou Accounting Office, Yukio Tanaka wants to take Hanyu Hideki to drink flower wine.
But Hideki Hanyu thought that his girlfriend was leaving Tokyo tomorrow, so he decisively refused.
His girlfriend's last day was in Tokyo, and of course he was going to accompany him.
β¦β¦
Time is such a thing as sneaking away when you're not looking.
A week, as if it hadn't passed much, just disappeared.
The Takarazuka Opera Troupe has already returned to the Takarazuka base camp, and Hideki Hanyu's girlfriend Hitomi Kuroki has also left with them.
After the happy life ended, Hideki Hanyu also put himself into work better.
It's not to see the training of the Genki girl, or to be pulled by Shinsuke Ito to communicate the filming of the movie "I'm sorry for being so cute".
When I got home, of course, I had to continue creating
In addition to the picture book tasks that have not been completed this year, there are also examples of "Dragon Ball" scripts and sketches that Shueisha promised to work on.
The movie script "My Sassy Girlfriend" that he told his girlfriend before, he is also going to be the same as "Love, Go Home", and he will write and publish it first.
However, compared with "Love, Go Home", "My Sassy Girlfriend" already has the original work, and it is undoubtedly a lot easier for him to adapt.
As for the newly established cooperation group of the Shogakukan, the remaining stories of the third part of "Magical Snack Shop", which has been urging, Hanyu Hideki has already finished writing, but he has no intention of delivering the manuscript.
With the steady rise of the box office of the "Love, Homecoming" movie, and another wave of contrarian growth in early June, Shogakukan's thoughts on releasing the limited edition book of "Love, Home" are getting hotter and hotter.
There is also the TV animation of the first episode of "Magical Snack Shop" that is about to be broadcast, and they also want to sign a contract with Hanyu Hideki for the first two volumes of "Magic Snack Shop".
But the problem is that the cooperative group just doesn't want to increase the royalty share, and refuses to budge by biting the previous ratio.
Recently, Eri Kitahara, as a representative, has been talking to the cooperation group several times.
Therefore, before the new royalty share is negotiated, it is absolutely impossible for Hanyu Hideki to hand over the manuscript of the third part of "Magical Dim Sum Shop" in his hands.
Because there is no manuscript, the serialization of the third part of "Magical Snack Shop" by children's literature and art has been suspended.
Book lovers complained, and magazine sales declined.
Hanyu Hideki really wants to see how long the cooperative group can resist.
If the Shogakukan is really ready to find trouble, he can completely punish him for failing to deliver the manuscript on time according to the serial contract signed in the third part of "Magical Snack Shop".
Anyway, he didn't have much money, so he was ready and waited for the elementary school hall to open his mouth.
But wait and wait, tomorrow the TV animation of "Magic Snack Shop" will be broadcast on Fuji TV, and the fine for breach of contract has not been paid.
Nakano District, Elf Entertainment.
Hideki Hanyu came to check the progress of the game development of "Saint Seiya", and by the way, asked about the situation at the Shogakukan.
"How's that, when will the royalties be negotiated?" Hideki Hanyu asked Eri Kitahara.
"It's asking them to cut the meat, how can it be so easy to negotiate."
"They want to use my name to make money, how can it be without paying a price, what extent is it talked about now."
"My request is 20 percent before 500,000 copies, 25 percent after 500,000 copies, and they are only willing to increase it by 1 percent."
"I kind of understand why they don't agree."
Hideki Hanyu sighed in his heart.
Eri Kitahara's knife stabbed his old club, but he really didn't talk about it at all, and the knife was fatal.
After all, once the royalty sharing is raised, it will be impossible to reduce it back, and the Shogakukan will definitely not easily agree.
"Actually, as long as I can increase it by two percent, I can accept it, but as long as the response to the TV animation of the magic dim sum shop is good, when they don't have enough inventory to sell, we can talk."
"Then I'll leave everything to Kitahara-san."
After saying this, he pointed downstairs and asked, "How is the development of the game progressing?" β
"It's officially started.,It's that Aragaki-san's requirements for employees are too high.,The original R&D department has been fired two.,I recruited no less than 20 people.,In the end, only two game designs.,One technology research and development.γ
Eri Kitahara is obviously also a headache for Tetsu Aragaki as well.
"Professional things will be handed over to professional people to do, and we will grasp the general direction."
"Hanyu-san, don't worry, I'm still very clear about this."
After Eri Kitahara, he remembered another thing, "Didn't you say that Yada-san was looking for a new address in the club?" Still haven't found the right one? β
"It's not that I haven't found it, it's that I have other things to arrange for Yada-san to do recently, and I don't have time for the time being, so I guess it will continue after the two days of busyness."
"What's the matter?" Eri Kitahara asked curiously.
"Help me buy a shop in Ginza." Hideki Hanyu didn't hide it either.
"It's been so long to buy a shop in Ginza."
"Two chomes, six hundred and fifty square meters." Hideki Hanyu spat out two sentences.
When Eri Kitahara heard this, he was immediately shocked and asked, "How much did it cost to buy such a big shop in 2-chome?" β
"There are a lot of people competing, and it will cost ...... if you can't do it." Hideki Hanyu said a number.
Eri Kitahara showed a surprised expression when he heard this, "Where did Hanyu-san find so much money?" β
"I pledged the proceeds of the paintings and future works released on the cloud."
"Hanyu-san is really bold."
"It's nothing, I just think the price of housing in Ginza will go up."
When Eri Kitahara heard this, he showed a look of disbelief.
"Ginza now costs 40 million yen per tsubo (3.3 square meters), which is already an astronomical amount, and I don't believe it can be doubled as much as it can rise."
When Hideki Hanyu heard this, he wanted to say that just doubling you is insulting the housing prices in Ginza.
But I can't say anything about this kind of thing, I can only explain, "I'm going to cooperate with Yukio-san to open a clothing store, so it's not just to add value to the store." β
"Is that so, but Hanyu-san should pay attention to the safety of funds, in case the house price fluctuates, the cloud film and your work will be taken away."
"Don't worry, I'll take notice."
Next, Hideki Hanyu and Eri Kitahara talked about the recent work of Elf Entertainment.
For example, the progress of mixing sand in the sales department is very good, and the former Yuan Zhensheng doesn't seem to care much about the rights, and he is very cooperative with all the work arrangements of Eri Kitahara.
As for the production department, we have already received the design drawings of the first batch of figurine-made toys from Bandai and are ready to open the mold for production.
Everything was moving forward in an orderly manner, and Hideki Hanyu had nothing to worry about, so he concentrated on his business.
It's June 8th.
Today is Monday, just after 7 o'clock in the evening, Fuji TV has been promoting the TV animation "Magic Dim Sum Shop" for almost a week, and it has officially met all audiences.
Because Hideki Hanyu's original book was very popular, this TV anime attracted a lot of attention from the beginning, and many people stayed in front of the TV and waited to watch it.
Yumi-chan, which Hanyu Hideki's younger brother likes, is one of them.
In order to please the girl he likes, his younger brother Hanyu Hidetoshi asked his brother for a signed version of the TV animation poster early.
When today's cartoon was broadcast, when I invited Yumi-chan to watch the cartoon at home, I gave it to the other party personally.
"Does Yumi-chan like this poster?"
"I like it."
After Yumi-chan finished speaking, she was a little embarrassed to ask Hanyu Hidetoshi, "Will Hideki-san return to Sendai this year?" β
"I will definitely come back for the New Year, I don't know the rest of the time, my brother is doing business in Tokyo, he should be very busy."
Hanyu Hidetoshi replied honestly.
"That's right." Yumi-chan was a little disappointed when she heard this.
Seeing that the girl he liked was disappointed, Hanyu Hideri didn't think about it and said, "The next time my brother comes back, I'll tell Yumi-chan as soon as possible." β
When Yumi-chan heard this, she immediately laughed happily, and her disappointment was swept away.
"Then it's decided, I didn't see Xiushusang during the Chinese New Year last year, and I must see it this year."
Looking at the adoration and joy in the eyes of the girl he liked when he talked about his brother, Hanyu Hidetoshi regretted what he had just said.
Hanyu Hidetoshi secretly decided that if it really didn't work, he would advise his brother not to go home this year, so that Yumi-chan wouldn't be able to see his brother.
Just when Hanyu Hideri was thinking about what reason to persuade his brother not to come back, he suddenly heard Yumi-chan beside him say, "The animation has begun." β
Hanyu looked up and found that the opening credits of "Magical Snack Shop" had already begun to play on the TV.
The younger sisters, Yui Hanyu and Yumi-chan, are both watching TV with a focused face.
Listening to the singing of the opening song, Hanyu Hideri felt that this song was sung by a female singer, but it was quite good.
But as the opening credits end and the feature film of the anime begins, the plot quickly attracts the attention of Hidetoshi Hanyu, making him forget the opening song.
Because he thinks that although the opening song is quite good, the cartoon itself seems to be better.
I don't know how long it took, when the ending song sung by the familiar female singer played on the TV, Hanyu Hidetoshi realized that the cartoon was over.
But the problem is that the story is only half told.
"Ah, is this the end, I want to see what happens next, I'll have to wait a week."
Hanyu Yui complained a little unhappily.
Yumi-chan also chimed in, "yes, such a beautiful cartoon, I won't be able to see it for a week." β
"If you don't wait for the summer vacation, Yumi-chan and I will go to Tokyo to play, and then let Hideki Oni-chan take us to watch all the animation in the back at once."
Yui Hanyu came up with an idea.
Hanyu Hidetoshi next to him wants to tell his sister that this anime must be broadcast while it is being produced, and even if he goes to Tokyo, he can't watch the whole episode.
But on second thought, if Yumi-chan was willing, wouldn't it mean that he could go to Tokyo with Yumi-chan.
Thinking of this, Hanyu Hidetoshi immediately swallowed what he wanted to say.
"Tokyo, it's too far away, it's a little inconvenient." Yumi-chan hesitated.
Seeing this, Hanyu Hidetoshi was afraid that the girl would not agree, so he hurriedly persuaded him.
"It's okay, my brother's house is very big, and you can stay in the guest room on the third floor, where you can have a beautiful view of the park."
But Lian's Hanyu Hideki didn't know that his younger brother had already arranged his guest room in advance in order to please the girl.
Yumi-chan was happy to live in Hideki Hanyu's house, but she refused out of politeness.
"I haven't seen Xiushu Sang, so it's not good."
"It's okay, Hideki Oni-chan won't mind, there will be a beautiful fireworks display in Tokyo then, doesn't Yumi-chan like to watch fireworks the most?"
Hanyu Yui really didn't want to continue to look at the second brother's clumsy appearance, so she helped to send an assist.
"I need to go home and talk to my father and mother."
"Okay, then we'll wait for news from Yumi-chan."
β¦β¦
On the morning of June 9, Hideki Hanyu was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by the constant ringing of the phone.
Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Hideki Hanyu picked up the phone, and as soon as he put it to his ear, he heard an excited shout from the other side.
"Hanyu-san! Do you know how much the first episode of Magical Dim Duc Shop got yesterday's ratings? β
"Hao Yisang, you be quiet, there is no problem with my phone."
Hideki Hanyu felt his ears buzzing through the earpiece.
"Seventeen percent average ratings! Nineteen percent of the highest ratings! β
"Not bad."
Hideki Hanyu remembers that last year was also Fuji TV, and at the same time on Wednesday night, the premiere of "Aralei" had a 19 percent rating.
If memory serves, the highest ratings for "Aralei" are as high as 36 percent.
Compared to this work, although the ratings of the TV animation of "Magical Snack Shop" are excellent, it still needs to work hard.
"What do you call not bad! This is the most watched show I am responsible for. β
"Then congratulations to Hao Yisan, I'm going to go to sleep if it's okay."
Of course, Hideki Hanyu was also happy.
But the problem is that you can't be excited all the time when you're happy, you still have to do something.
However, he only coped with playing Hong Kong Koichi here, but as soon as the phone was put down, he hadn't taken two steps before the phone rang again.
"Moximoxi, this is the House of Everything, may I ask who it is."
"Hanyu-san is me, Eri Kitahara."
Eri Kitahara's voice came from the other side of the phone.
"It's early in the morning, how can Kitahara-san call over."
"Did anyone else call Hanyu-san just now?"
"Koichi-san of Fuji TV, give me a report on the ratings for the premiere of the TV anime of the magic confectionery shop."
"So that's the case, I'm actually also for this matter, and the elementary school hall called early in the morning, urging us to talk about copyright sharing as soon as possible."
"It seems that the Elementary School Hall has received the ratings report, but although the ratings are good, it shouldn't be so anxious?"
"Good ratings? What does Hanyu-san use to compare, this kind of ratings can only be considered good. β
"Of course it was last year's Alalei, I remember that the first broadcast was 19 percent, and the final rating was 36 percent."
On the other end of the phone, Eri Kitahara was speechless and held his forehead.
"Hanyu-san, Aralei was last year's ratings champion, that's too demanding compared to it, do you know that the premiere ratings of the Magical Snack Shop TV animation are already the highest this year?"
Hideki Hanyu, who didn't pay much attention to the ratings of anime this year, heard this and suddenly realized, "Is this year's TV animation so sluggish?" β
"Hanyu-san doesn't care about other people's ratings, in short, ours is very good."
"Okay, then I'll ask Kitahara-san over there at the Elementary Hall, I was too busy last night, so I'll rest first."
After he left from Eri Kitahara yesterday afternoon, he received a contact from Qiu Chubby, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Yasu Akimoto recently became famous as a lyricist by writing the lyrics for Junichi Inatsune's new song "Dramatic Rain", and he was happy to invite Hideki Hanyu to drink.
Hideki Hanyu remembered this song, mainly because the later generations of this song Junichi Inatsuro and Akina Nakamori came out with a chorus version.
As a result, under the leadership of the happy Akimoto Yasu, he changed three places in a row to continue the stall, eating first and then drinking, and playing until three o'clock in the morning before going home, so it's no wonder that he is not tired.
However, Hideki Hanyu fell asleep, but the impact of the premiere explosion of "Magical Snack Shop" is still spreading.
Commentators in the professional media have commented on this cartoon.
Most of them are mainly praised, saying that the production of Fuji TV shows the fantasy atmosphere in Hideki Hanyu's original book very well, and people unconsciously invest in it.
For the opening and ending songs produced by Nagado Daiyuki, as well as the soundtrack, everyone also gave high praise.
The psychedelic and ethereal feeling that represents the voice of Alan Chiko is really suitable for the theme of the cartoon.
MF Records and Cloud Entertainment, of course, did not miss this promotional opportunity and immediately released a single that took advantage of the popularity of the anime and the resources of Fuji TV to promote it.
As a result, in just the first week, the theme song of "Magical Dim Sum Shop" sung by Alan Zhizi won more than 160,000 sales, and the second place in the weekly sales list of airborne public trust songs.
And what can stop Alanchiko is "Future" sung by Akina Nakamori in the same office.
Although the premiere ratings of "Magical Snack Shop" were good, many people bought the record.
But after all, the age of TV animation viewers is relatively young, and it is still much inferior to the stable box office trend of "Love, Go Home" and the national tear jerking it brings.
And on this week's weekly sales list of public trust charts, Akina Nakamori topped the list with 190,000 copies of sales except for the song "Future".
Her debut song "Slow Motion" is still on the list.
After consuming everyone's first wave of curiosity, the record sales of "Slow Motion" fell out of the top five on the list, but still remained in the ninth position.
At this time, everyone found out that Alan Zhizi was also a singer of the Cloud Entertainment Agency.
At this time, looking at the single sales weekly chart, among the top ten songs on the entire weekly list, three songs were sung by artists from the Cloud Entertainment Agency.
The launch of a singer is a success, but each of them is with the help of the linkage of works, increasing the exposure of singers and the popularity of songs, either movies or TV animations.
Everyone finally realized that unconsciously, the cloud film has played the TIE-UP business law so proficiently.
Akina Nakamori, who had a tepid debut, was pulled up, and Aaran Chiko, who debuted unpopularly and made her debut again and made it to the sales list.
The success rate of the cloud entertainment studio and the parent company of the cloud studio to launch artists is simply a hit in every shot.
And looking at the second place in the sales list of Aran Zhizi's airborne, if you want to say that you are the happiest, it should be the luck of Changto, who has single-handedly created it.
Today's Nagato Daiyuki sits on MF Records, and watching the rising single sales, I only feel that the thighs of this cloud film are really worth it.
At the same time, Shogakukan looked at the sales of the single book of "Magic Snack Shop", which had skyrocketed with the help of the influence of the TV animation broadcast, and had no choice but to invite Eiri Kitahara back to the negotiating table.
If you don't invite it back, it's not good, the inventory is urgent, and if you don't print it, the sellers around the country should call and scold people.
Looking at Eri Kitahara, who was full of bamboo, Yanagi Wangtai of the cooperation group was too aggrieved, not to mention how aggrieved he was.
Unexpectedly, a little person who was casually replaced by him now needs his kind voice to discuss.
He wanted to learn from his father's mentality and treat writers as inappropriate.
But the problem's father is the person in charge of the business department, and the writers who manage the surrounding copyright have never been able to participate, so the writers can't influence the business department.
But the writer he docked with was Hideki Hanyu, a difficult guy to serve.
Seeing that the TV animation of "Magical Dim Sum Shop" is popular, the inventory of a single line is urgent, and if he can't talk about it anymore, it will affect sales.
At that time, even if everyone cares about his father's relationship, they will kick him out of power mercilessly.
"How much does it take to be satisfied with the culture on the cloud?" Liu Shengwang asked impatiently.
"It's the ratio I said earlier." Eri Kitahara replied casually.
"You know it's impossible, and if you increase it by one percent, Kitahara-san doesn't want to miss out on the best sales period."
"For the sake of sales, I took a step back and increased by four percent on the original basis."
"Two percent, that's the most I can give."
When Eri Kitahara saw that she had got the ratio in her mind, she was going to agree directly, but when she thought of the ratings of the TV anime of "Magical Snack Shop", she shouted the price again with the attitude of giving it a try.
"If I agree to the contract for the limited edition of the Love Home movie and the reprinting contract for the first and second parts of the Magic Snack Shop, I will sign it immediately, and I will guarantee that Hanyu-sensei will submit all the remaining stories of the third part of the Magic Cake Shop within a week."
As soon as Eri Kitahara's conditions were revealed, Wangta Yanagi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." β
When Eri Kitahara heard this, he almost couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.
I didn't expect to just bid with the attitude of giving it a try, but the other party really agreed.
This also means that from now on, all of Hanyu's works will start at 18% of the royalties of Shogakukan.
After more than 500,000 copies, you can get 23% of the royalty share.
Don't underestimate the difference between these three points, it adds up to a rather terrifying number.
"Hanyu-san, let's talk about it, improve it by three percent."
"Kitahara-san is too powerful, next time I invite you to dinner."
"As long as it's not kaiseki, anything goes."
Eri Kitahara's side successfully negotiated the royalty share and told the good news to Hideki Hanyu.
As soon as Hideki Hanyu put down the phone, Yoshihiro Yada also called.
"Hanyu-sensei, the landlord accepted our offer."
Hearing Yoshihiro Yada's words, Hideki Hanyu thought to himself what it meant to be a double happiness, which was a double happiness for him.
"Yada-san hurried through the formalities, and after the completion of the process, I went to the Dongyang Sogo Bank as soon as possible to use the shop as collateral to exchange the future income of my work and the shares of the cloud film back."
"Yes, Hanyu-sensei."
