Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era
Chapter 146 Intern Screenwriter
Chapter 146 Intern Screenwriter
Despite the short haircut, high-end custom clothing, and makeup, it’s not the same as before.
But when Eri Kitahara reported his name, the staff at the Xiaoxiaoguan side recognized him.
Especially Yagyu Wangta, who snatched Eri Kitahara’s position, looked extremely ugly.
The other party resigned yesterday, and today he has become the president of Elf Entertainment who doesn’t know where, and even came to compete for the copyright authorization of “Saint Seiya”.
Moreover, the meeting has been held for the second time, and it is impossible to jump in at this time and say that no one supports it behind the scenes.
Compared with his ineffective son, Naoaki Yagyu, who is the representative of the Shogakukan, seems to have more power, and his expression is calm and does not reveal his emotions, as if he doesn’t know who Eri Kitahara is.
It’s just that he glanced at Hideki Hanyu inadvertently out of the corner of his eye, as if he had guessed something.
Hanyu Hideki seemed to have noticed Yagyu Naoaki’s gaze, let out a breath of indifference, and said to the stuck Yagyu Wangta.
“Continue with the meeting.”
Wangtai Yagyu wiped the fine beads of sweat on his head nervously when he heard that, and couldn’t help but look at his father Naoaki Yagyu.
Yagyu Shangming said in a deep voice with no expression on his face, “Continue.”
In an instant, Hitotsubashi Publishing Group and Shueisha’s shareholder representatives could hardly hide the excitement in their eyes.
Especially the representative of Shueisha, he looked at Eri Kitahara, then at Hideki Hanyu, and finally at Naoaki Yagyu, wishing that these people would fight on the spot.
The representatives of Bandai and Sony, who were sitting across from Eri Kitahara, were completely confused.
Can anyone tell them what’s going on, one of them was just driven away last time, and another one came this time.
And what does it mean to jump in the queue midway? I’m afraid the Xiaoxiaoguan is not playing with them.
But when the meeting started, Bandai and Sony soon discovered that the newcomer’s attitude towards Elf Entertainment was very strange.
Although it also showed the idea of winning the authorization, the sense of competition does not seem to be so strong.
But it is not right to say that it is not strong, every time the distribution of surrounding interests is raised, Elven Entertainment will come out to disrupt the situation.
After a meeting, under the agitation of Elven Entertainment, nothing was discussed.
Unlike the Coreland Technology Co., Ltd. last time, whenever Bandai and Sony wanted to kick this guy away, Hideki Hanyu would seem to help.
After the meeting was over and it was decided to continue tomorrow, Hideki Hanyu left the Shogakukan building.
Nakano District, the office of the president of Spirit Entertainment.
“Kitahara-san’s clothes are nice.”
Hideki Hanyu looked at Eri Kitahara, who was sitting on the president’s seat with short hair, and joked.
“Then I would like to thank Hanyu-san for the installation fee. No, I should call him President Hanyu. After all, I will be working for President Hanyu in the future.”
As Eri Kitahara spoke, she intentionally made a cautious expression.
“Enough is enough, please don’t pretend to be in front of me. At the meeting today, I didn’t see Kitahara-san being so polite. People from Bandai and Sony are probably going to be confused.”
Hanyu Hideki glanced at Eri Kitahara, who was very different now.
“Actually let alone Bandai and Sony, I don’t know Hanyu-san’s purpose, why let me participate in this kind of competition with little chance.”
Eri Kitahara looked at Hideki Hanyu with a strange expression on her face.
“Because I feel that the two companies have a tacit understanding in private, even if they compete, they are not willing to lower prices, so you need to break their tacit understanding.” Hanyu Hideki explained.
Eri Kitahara seemed to realize something, “Judging from today’s meeting, there is indeed such a feeling.”
In fact, this is also a characteristic of neon. All industries are the same, competing with each other and clinging to each other.
Take the major TV stations as an example, they compete fiercely for ratings.
But in the face of external brokerage firms and production clubs, they can tacitly collectively lower prices, suppress actors’ remuneration, and suppress procurement funds.
In later generations, Neon will not be able to separate production and broadcasting, which is more or less related to this tacit understanding.
“Another point is that even if we win the copyright, we can’t do this small stall now. If Kitahara-san goes to stir it up, it will be easier to talk about cooperation then.”
Hanyu Hideki said and pointed to the outside.
“Yada-san is already looking for a new office location, and the enrollment expansion of Elf Entertainment is about to start. We missed this opportunity, but it won’t work in the future.”
“Don’t worry, I have read the report submitted by Aragaki-san, and I will immediately issue recruitment information based on the report. Now that the market environment is not good, it is easier to find people.”
As Eri Kitahara said, she instinctively wanted to brush her hair, but she raised her hand only to realize that her hairstyle had changed, so she had to put her hand down again.
Seeing this, Hideki Hanyu asked curiously, “Where did Kitahara-san’s shape be made, it’s not like an ordinary hair salon can do it.”
“It was done by a professional stylist. Guess who introduced the stylist?” Eri Kitahara asked a question.
“I don’t know.” Hanyu Hideki shook his head.
“Akina Nakamori.” Eri Kitahara said a name that Hideki Hanyu didn’t expect.
“How did Kitahara-san know Akira-chan?”
Hanyu Hideki didn’t know how these two people knew each other.
“We met when she released her photobook. After hearing that I was the person in charge of Hanyu-san, she told me a lot about her styling. I feel that although the child is young, she has a good sense of fashion. Ask her to introduce a stylist.”
Eri Kitahara explained why.
“I see.”
Hanyu Hideki did not expect that Akina-chan’s circle of friends was so wide that even Eri Kitahara knew her.
However, the girl’s two songs were in the top five of the Oricon charts at the same time recently, and the popularity was in a mess. There were so many announcements that she didn’t have time to go home and rest, and she even had time to introduce a stylist to Eri Kitahara.
Sure enough, a woman’s time is the same as that, you can make some time by squeezing.
“Kitahara-san, after the new office location is determined, I will also move Yunshang Culture there, and then I will leave everything to you.”
After finally catching such a tool person as Eri Kitahara, he used to be in the Xiaogakukan, and now it is in turn to connect with the Xiaogakukan. It must be very interesting.
“Minister Imai’s complexion will probably be very ugly by then.”
Kitahara Megumi recalled the scene in the meeting room today, “Minister Naoaki Yagyu probably wants to chat with me, his son is acting too immature.”
“So it’s wrong to say that weeding seedlings to encourage growth, but I guess we’re talking about them, and they should be talking about us.”
Hideki Hanyu had a playful expression.
Just like what Hideki Hanyu said, at the Shogakukan at this time, in the office of the head of the general affairs department, Naoaki Yagyu, the head of the business department, and Hitoshi Imai, the head of the sales department, came hand in hand.
Masahiro He, the executive manager of the Elementary School Hall, the head of the General Affairs Department, and the future successor, sat on his seat with a calm expression when he saw the two of them coming.
“Professor Aigara, the Elf Entertainment represented by Eri Kitahara, you decided to let him attend the meeting?”
Naoaki Yagyu asked straight to the point.
Next to him, Imai Zeren was covered with fine beads of sweat, just wanting to escape from here immediately.
Although Imai Zeren is also at the ministerial level, compared to the two senior board members with the titles of executive and executive, the district minister is nothing.
He didn’t want to hear a word of this kind of dispute between high-level officials.
If Yagyu Shangming hadn’t forcefully pulled him over, he would never have gotten involved in this kind of thing.
“I agree.” Masahiro Aiga answered truthfully.
“Why? That Eri Kitahara was just a small staff member of ours before, so what qualifications does he have to attend that kind of meeting.”
Naoaki Yagyu’s words were very blunt.
Hearing this, Imai Zeren next to him felt his back drenched in cold sweat.
Yagyu Shangming has a relationship with Bridge Publishing Group behind him, so he dared to directly contradict He Changhong.
But Imai Zeren is just an ordinary wage earner, and it would be wrong just to hear such words.
“Minister Yagyu has already said that that was her previous identity, and now the other party is the president of an entertainment club, why can’t she attend the meeting?”
Xianghe Masahiro answered calmly.
“Then why did you agree? Such an unknown club has no qualifications to compete with Bandai and Sony.”
“The owner of that Fairy Entertainment is actually Hideki Hanyu.” Aiga Masahiro said.
Naoaki Yagyu was not surprised when he heard the words, he naturally knew the relationship between Eri Kitahara and Hideki Hanyu.
Eri Kitahara is a small person with no background. He has just resigned from the Shogakukan and became the president of an entertainment club. Who else can help Hideki Hanyu.
“Even if the boss is Hideki Hanyu, such a small club is not qualified to participate in the competition. I said at the beginning that we should not agree to share the peripheral income with Hideki Hanyu. Now, we need to read the work of a young writer. face!”
As soon as Yagyu Naoaki said this, Imai Zeren just wanted to run away immediately.
A trace of displeasure flashed in Xianghe Masahiro’s eyes.
This guy in front of him, when Shogakukan agreed to share peripheral income with Hideki Hanyu, he has been singing the opposite tune.
This kind of antique, still living in the last era, feels that publishing houses can squeeze writers unscrupulously.
“Minister Yagyu, our cooperation with Hideki Hanyu has always been very pleasant. Please don’t say such things in the future, so as not to cause misunderstandings to the partners.”
“Really, then let him misunderstand, and save the time to participate in our cooperation with Bandai and Sony…”
Naoaki Yagyu didn’t take Aiga Masahiro’s words to heart at all.
Does Yagyu Naoaki not know the importance of Hanyu Hideki to Shogakukan?
Of course he knew.
But Naoaki Yagyu didn’t think that he was qualified to sit on an equal footing with them if he was important.
Especially after Hideki Hanyu took in Eri Kitahara, he let that woman sit at the same table with him.
As soon as Naoaki Yagyu said this, Masahiro Aikaga, who had been in a calm state, showed an angry look on his face.
“Minister Yagyu, do you have any sincerity in cooperation between Sony and Bandai? I think you know better than me that we need Elf Entertainment to enter the arena and tell them that there are more than two options for Xiaokan.”
Aiga Masahiro’s voice became colder as he spoke.
“And about the entry of Spirit Entertainment, I have already communicated with Shueisha and the group. Everyone is sitting together to get more benefits. I think…”
Aika Masahiro looked at Naoaki Yagyu sharply, “Minister Yagyu should have the same interests as us.”
Naoaki Yagyu was not intimidated by Masahiro Aigami’s gaze, and said calmly, “Of course, I am also for the benefit of the Shogakukan.”
“That’s good. If you have nothing to do, let’s come here today.” Xianghe Masahiro was planning to see off the guests.
“Then I’ll take my leave.” Yagyu Shangaki turned and left.
Imai Zeren looked at Naoaki Yagyu who turned to leave, and then at Masahiro Aiga who was expressionless, sweating profusely, not knowing what to do.
At this time, Aiga Masahiro said, “Minister Imai, in the future, we should consider the interests of the Shogakukan more in the future, do you understand?”
“I know, I know.” Imai Zeren answered quickly.
He really didn’t expect that he would be involved in this kind of thing just to help Yagyu Naomi’s son to replace a no-background Eri Kitahara.
“Go get busy.”
“Executive Xiang He, take your leave.”
Imai Zeren left in a hurry, fearing that he would hear something bad if he left a second later.
……
Bunkyo District, Everything House.
Kuroki Hitomi was shaking a cat-teasing toy feather in front of Nako Lulu, trying to tease Nako Lulu.
Then Nako Lulu looked at the feathers that were flung back and forth, and didn’t intend to move at all.
In the eyes of the little mother cat, there was also a feeling of, ‘Woman, I’m not interested in you’.
“Hey, it’s so boring, why hasn’t Hideki-kun come back yet?”
Hitomi Kuroki saw that teasing the cat was ineffective, and he was a little bit bored thinking of Hideki Hanyu.
Recently, except for rehearsals and performances, she basically lives with Hideki Hanyu.
But she had no choice but to be free, but Hanyu Hideki was so busy that he couldn’t see anyone for a day.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be teasing the tsundere little cat here.
At this moment, the sound of opening the door suddenly sounded outside.
Before Kuroki Hitomi could react, the little female cat Nako Lulu who was still aloof just now rushed out with a whoosh.
When Kuroki Hitomi walked out of the room, he saw the little female cat circling around Hideki Hanyu with its tail up.
Nako Lulu meowed meowingly, while sweeping Hanyu Hideki’s leg with her tail, that coquettish look was completely different from the high indifference towards Kuroki Hitomi just now.
But at this time, Kuroki Hitomi couldn’t care less about complaining about the little female cat’s attitude, seeing Hanyu Hideki coming back, he immediately greeted him happily.
“Xiu Shu-kun is back, I worked hard today.”
While talking, he also stepped forward to help Hanyu Hideki take off his coat and hung it on the hanger at the door.
Then he took Hideki Hanyu’s car keys and put them away.
“Actually, it’s not hard, but I want to sleep during the meeting.”
As for his girlfriend’s service, Hideki Hanyu has gotten used to it after a few days.
“Do you need me to help Hanyu-san drain the bath water?” Kuroki Hitomi asked again.
“Of course, I also need Hitomi-chan to rub my back.”
Seeing Hideki Hanyu’s wicked eyes when he spoke, Hitomi Kuroki shyly said, “No, Hideki-kun always uses taking a bath as an excuse.”
Hanyu Hideki doesn’t care about his girlfriend’s rejection at all.
Because I refused every time, but I never really succeeded once.
“I’m waiting for Kuroki-san in the bathroom.”
……
In the specially-made hydromassage bathtub, the young couple leaned close together.
The atmosphere in the bathroom is beautiful, and the remaining fighting atmosphere in the air has not dissipated, and the two are chatting with each other.
“Nako Lulu ignores me, but she likes Hideki-kun so much.”
Hitomi Kuroki talked about the little cat
Hanyu Hideki chuckled when he heard that, “Nakorulu was raised by me, so she must like me.”
“But I’ve fed it a lot lately, too.”
“That’s obviously not enough to feed. It seems that Hitomi-chan will stay with me for a few more days.”
“I think so too, but after this performance, the next time I come to Tokyo will be the end of the year, and I won’t see Hideki-kun for a long time.”
“It’s okay, if Hitomi-chan doesn’t come to me, I can go to Hitomi-chan.”
“Really?” Hitomi Kuroki stood up and looked at Hideki Hanyu with expectation.
Hitomi Kuroki has seen how busy Hideki Hanyu has been recently. Apart from work, he is also busy creating on the third floor, so he has no free time.
“Of course it’s true. When Vitality Girl debuts in July, I won’t have anything to do for the time being.
At that time, I will go to Kobe County to rest for a while. Last time I stayed too short, I didn’t have time to taste the local Kobe beef. “
“That’s great.”
Seeing his girlfriend cheering happily, Hanyu Hideki felt that he really needed to rest.
He felt that he was earning more and more money, but he had less and less rest time.
He is a little envious of Yukio Tanaka now, that is the day of the rich.
Fortunately, Eri Kitahara is now helping to manage Yunshang Culture, so he doesn’t need to worry about anything.
As for Yun Ying Pictures, the work has already been on the right track, and the only thing he needs to be responsible for is the Vitality Girl who is about to make her debut.
Thinking of the Vitality Girl, he just thought of one thing, that is, he promised Nobusuke Ito in the morning that he would read the script sent in the afternoon and give him an answer.
I was so busy making out with my girlfriend that I almost forgot about it.
“Hitomi-chan, did anyone send any documents today?”
“Hideki-kun’s club sent a document bag, and I put it on the dining table.”
Hanyu Hideki heard this, got up, dried himself, and walked outside.
“What is Hideki-kun doing?” asked the girlfriend behind him.
“Some work to do.”
“Then what Hideki-kun has for dinner, I’ll do it now.”
“There is still steak in the refrigerator, let’s eat steak…”
As Hanyu Hideki said, he had already gone outside, opened the file bag on the dining table, took out the script inside, and sat on the sofa to read it.
“I’m so sorry for being so cute, is the name used in the previous commercial song? What about the debut song…”
Hanyu Hideki said, looking carefully.
I don’t know how long it took, but when he was concentrating on reading the script, he smelled the aroma of beef in his nose, and then he heard Kuroki Hitomi’s voice from the restaurant.
“Hideki-kun, the steak is ready, let’s eat before work.”
“Ok.”
Hanyu Hideki put down the script and went to have dinner with his girlfriend.
After dinner, his girlfriend washed the dishes, and he returned to watch the script.
After a while, he was still reading the script, while his girlfriend, who had finished cleaning the kitchen, watched TV on the sidelines.
Since Nobusuke Ito hoped that he could give his opinion, Hideki Hanyu looked at it very seriously, and wrote some opinions with a pen from time to time.
Generally speaking, this script is very well written, and it handles the friendship between the little girls and the changes in mentality before and after very well.
Just like the story in his advertisement, there is no overly exaggerated dramatic conflict, only a plain youth growth story that makes people feel empathetic after a series of changes.
Even the unexpected death of the senior whom he proposed to be played by Akina Nakamori was handled quite peacefully, without giving people a heart-piercing feeling.
But it is the delicate feelings that are naturally revealed in this plainness that make people the most moving and impressive.
“Senior Akina is gone?”
“She just traveled far and wide.”
“It’s a pity that our acting seniors can’t see it.”
“I planted my senior’s favorite daffodil, and when the flowers bloom, my senior will come back.”
“Will she look beautiful with Hua?”
“that’s for sure.”
“Senior, the flowers are blooming…”
Since the name of the character has not been officially determined, the name of the character in the script is temporarily replaced by the name of the actor.
However, Hideki Hanyu felt that it seemed good to use his real name directly.
After reading the script, he found that judging from the writing style and story style, there is a delicate feeling unique to female writers between the lines, and it should be a perfect script by a female editor in the editorial department.
At this moment, the girlfriend who was watching TV next to him realized that he was done with work, so she hurriedly pulled him and pointed at the TV.
“Look, Hideki-kun, it’s the female idol launched by your agency, Akina Nakamori.”
Hideki Hanyu went to watch TV and found out that it was an audio program, and Akina Nakamori was being interviewed by the host.
But just now I saw Nakamori Akina die unexpectedly in the script, and now I see a real person appearing on TV, somehow I feel a little funny.
On TV, the host didn’t know whether it was discovered on the spot or arranged by the script, and the topic was brought to the custom-made microphone in the hands of Akina Nakamori.
“The microphone in Ming Caijiang’s hand looks very beautiful. It’s still wireless. It doesn’t seem to belong to our show.”
“This is a gift from someone else, a custom-made microphone based on my voice.”
Nakamori Akina answered in a low voice.
“Is it custom-made? This is the first time I have seen a custom-made microphone. I heard that custom-made microphones are very expensive. Please let me see it!”
The host made an exaggerated expression, and the effect of the program was full, which made the audience curious.
Even Kuroki Hitomi in front of the TV said curiously, “The custom-made microphone looks so beautiful.”
Even if the microphone looked from a distance, it looked very textured, completely different from the ordinary one in the host’s hand.
And as the camera zoomed in, Akina Nakamori showed the camera a custom microphone in her hand.
I saw the grip of the microphone in Akina Nakamori’s hand, which was a bright metallic color with a brushed non-slip design.
The filter at the microphone position is a very high-grade white, like some kind of baking paint.
And the most important thing is that in the grip part, you can clearly see a series of letters cut out of metal.
Nakamori Akina.
“Wow, it’s really a custom-made microphone, and it even has the name Ming Caijiang.”
The host exaggerated again.
“It seems that the person who gave the microphone to Ming Caijiang really put his heart into it. I wonder if Ming Caijiang can tell me how much it costs to customize this microphone?”
Akina Nakamori shook her head and said, “I don’t know how much.”
“Then who gave Ming Caijiang this microphone, can you tell me?”
Hearing this question, Akina Nakamori showed a shy smile on her baby-fat face, and said softly, “It’s Mr. Hideki Hanyu.”
“Mr. Hanyu Hideki? Is that the famous writer Hanyu Hideki? He actually gave Akina-chan the microphone!”
Of course the host knew that Akina Nakamori was an artist under Hideki Hanyu’s agency.
The reason why it is so exaggerated is nothing more than to create a program effect for those audiences who don’t know.
“That’s right, Mr. Hanyu is my president. Although he doesn’t come to the office very often, he composed the song I sang about the future.”
“Wow! Sensei Hanyu is so kind to Akina-chan. Not only did he give a custom-made microphone as a gift, but he also wrote such a beautiful song for Akina-chan…”
Next, the host naturally sighed, flattered, and surprised again, and continued to create the effect of the show.
Akina Nakamori also cooperated.
Although Akina Nakamori is very popular now, Director Yoshioka of the office has said that Chairman Hanyu’s reputation is big enough anyway, so there is no need to use it for nothing.
As the program continued on TV, Akina Nakamori picked up the microphone and began to sing.
In front of the TV, Hitomi Kuroki was already shaking Hideki Hanyu’s arm, “I also want to customize a microphone, and I also want to sing a song written by Hideki-kun.”
Hideki Hanyu saw his girlfriend puffing up her mouth and acting coquettishly, and knew that the other party didn’t really want the microphone and the song he wrote, but was just a little jealous when she heard the exaggerated words of the host.
At this time, Hideki Hanyu must of course coax his girlfriend well.
But before he was completely coaxed, a phone call saved him.
The caller was Nobusuke Ito, who came to ask Hideki Hanyu how the script was going.
Kuroki Hitomi saw that Hanyu Hideki was busy with business, so he was sensible and stopped making trouble.
“Hanyu-san, have you finished reading the script? If you have any comments, tell me quickly. I’m still waiting for the filming.”
“After reading it, there is basically no problem. I wrote my individual comments on the script. You can send someone to get it back tomorrow.”
“Won’t Hanyu-san come to the movie tomorrow?”
“No, tomorrow I have to go to the elementary school for a meeting.”
“Okay, then I will arrange for someone to pick it up tomorrow.”
“Come before ten in the morning, or I’ll be out.”
“I understand.”
“Oh yeah, I have an idea for a shoot.”
“Hanyu-san, please tell me.”
“I think that if the film is officially filmed, it is better to use the real name, so that when the film is released, it will have a better publicity effect on them.”
“Of course the roles of Vitality Girl and Akina-chan are fine, but Nana Okada plays the villain, which is a bit inappropriate.”
“With such thorough consideration, is Ito-san going to be serious?”
“This matter, when Hanyu-san has time, how about we find a place to drink and talk?”
“No problem, call Asako-san and Yoshioka-san, we haven’t eaten together for a while, let’s celebrate the box office success of Love Home.”
“Okay, but you need to plan your time carefully. The two of them are very busy recently.”
“Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I want to ask Yoshioka-san, which female editor in the editorial department perfected the script.”
“It’s amazing that Hanyu-san can tell that it’s a female editor.”
“Did Ito-san forget that I am a writer? If you still can’t see the text, then just close the pen.”
“It is indeed a female editor who was just recruited in March. She has been writing commercial scripts and is still in the internship period.”
“The story is well written, please sign her as the screenwriter for the movie.”
“No problem, this is Hanyu-san’s story, as long as Hanyu-san doesn’t mind.”
“To me, the signature of a movie screenwriter is nothing more than exclusive or shared, but it is very important to newcomers. Since they are talented people, of course they must be taken seriously.”
“It seems that I’m going to make this intern screenwriter a regular.”
“Oh, by the way, what’s the name of the intern screenwriter you mentioned?”
“It’s called Kitagawa Etsuko, okay, I won’t talk to Hanyu Santo, I have other things to do, goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Hanyu Hideki hung up the phone, muttering the name “Etsuko Kitagawa”.
“It turned out to be her.”
When I found the name of this female screenwriter in my memory, many works by the other screenwriter immediately appeared.
The most familiar ones to domestic audiences are of course “Wonderful Stories of the World”, as well as “White Paper on Love” and “Long Vacation” starring Kimura Takuya.
“Who is Hideki-kun talking about?” Hitomi Kuroki seemed to have heard Hideki Hanyu’s murmur.
“No one?” Hideki Hanyu shook his head.
Although he found out that a famous screenwriter of later generations was actually an intern in his club, after the initial surprise, he quickly calmed down.
Even though Etsuko Kitagawa has shown his talent, he is still a rookie who hasn’t been trained. It’s fine to let nature take its course, and it’s not good to pay attention to it deliberately.
Besides, he agreed with the other party to be the screenwriter of the film, which is already a pie in the sky for an intern.
Thinking of this, he suddenly found that his girlfriend Hitomi Kuroki was holding the script he had just read, so he asked.
“How does Hitomi-chan feel?”
“It’s a very interesting story, and it describes the girl’s mind very well.”
“This was originally an advertisement I wrote. After it was expanded, it was planned to be made into a movie. It was an intern female screenwriter from the company who perfected the script.”
“No wonder I saw that the dialogue was written so delicately. It turned out to be a female screenwriter.”
Hitomi Kuroki said as if remembering something, and suddenly put down the script and approached Hideki Hanyu, “Hideki-kun, I remember that Hideki-kun promised me to write a script for me.”
“Yes.” Hanyu Hideki nodded.
“Has Hideki-kun finished?” Kuroki Hitomi looked expectant.
“No.” Hanyu Hideki spread his hands.
Then he saw Kuroki Hitomi disappointed, and said, “But I’ve already thought about the story, should I tell Hitomi-chan.”
“Okay, okay, I want to listen.”
A woman’s mood changes faster than the rainy season in Tokyo.
Hitomi Kuroki, who was disappointed just now, immediately became happy again.
After finishing speaking, the girl got into Hanyu Hideki’s arms and found a comfortable position, as if I wanted to listen to the story carefully.
Hideki Hanyu shook his head helplessly, and his girlfriend started telling the story.
“Xinta is an honest boy. He met a beautiful girl, Sumi, at a friend’s party. His friend encouraged him to ask for her contact information, but he didn’t dare. As a result, at the subway station back home, Xinta met again. This is Xumi, but at this time, Xumi is already drunk…”
……
The next day, Hideki Hanyu handed over the script with comments to an employee of Yunying Pictures, and then drove to the Shokokan.
The licensing meeting on “Saint Seiya” started again.
With the spoiler of Spirit Entertainment, Bandai and Sony, who had a tacit understanding, finally couldn’t sit still, and put forward their own final conditions.
In the end, after negotiation, Bandai’s conditions were recognized by Constellation Culture and won the peripheral authorization of “Saint Seiya”.
But before that, Bandai also had separate discussions with Hideki Hanyu and Spirit Entertainment.
In the end, Bandai changed the partner of TV animation and theatrical animation from Toei to Yunying Pictures.
As for the broadcaster, it must be Fuji TV.
With the help of Hideki Hanyu, Spirit Entertainment also won the production contract for arcade games and some hand-made toys.
For Bandai, whether it is cooperation with Toei or Yunying Pictures, the effect is the same.
Anyway, whether it’s TV animation or theatrical animation, it’s just Bandai’s promotional advertisement for hand-made toys.
Whoever cooperates with has to pay the production fee, and Hideki Hanyu, the author, still has to give face.
As for the production of arcade games, the current market is in such a downturn, arcade games are tasteless to Bandai, and it is easy to spend some money and hand them over to others.
At this point, after a long period of competition, the peripheral authorization of “Saint Seiya” has finally come to light.
Two days later, Xiao Xiao Guan, Bandai, and Yun Shang Pictures jointly held a press conference.
“Saint Seiya”, which is highly anticipated by comic fans, announced the official start of TV animation production, and it is expected to be broadcast on Fuji TV at the end of the year.
The arcade game changed according to “Saint Seiya” will also officially start production.
Comics fans care a lot about the former, but they don’t care about the game at all.
But Bandai doesn’t care, manga fans don’t care, but for Nakano’s Elf Entertainment, this is indeed a very important thing.
For the first time, they will be making a game independently, and it will be based on a best-selling manga.
It’s no longer copying games designed by others, and you don’t need to try your best to optimize other people’s shortcomings, but to make a game that belongs to them.
Looking at the R&D department where the discussion is in full swing, Hideki Hanyu has no intention of participating in it.
Originally, this incident was an exercise for the R&D department, and the R&D department with only experience in copycat games would not be able to complete his next plan.
Therefore, he needs the R&D department to grow up as soon as possible, so he cannot intervene.
Besides, Hanyu Hideki is a complete layman with current electronic technology and game programming, so even if he wants to help, he can’t help.
As for the production tasks of some of Bandai’s toy figures, in addition to earning a little money, it is still more about training the production team.
In the past, it was a small team that had to adapt to the rhythm of the big factory and the product requirements of the big factory. Otherwise, how could we entrust them with more important work in the future.
As for the sales that have no work to do for the time being, let’s sell the stock of the former cottage first.
Eri Kitahara is also following his request, taking the opportunity of continuing to expand sales channels to cover cities, while recruiting people, while adding sand to the sales team.
The ultimate goal, of course, is to completely control the sales channels in their hands.
Next, Eri Kitahara is in charge of the management of Elf Entertainment, which is in a busy state. He doesn’t need to continue to worry about it, and he can be busy with other things.
Gang Haoyi called before and asked him to go to Fuji Station this afternoon, and now he is free to go and have a look.
Calculating the time, the TV animation of the first volume of “Magic Snack Shop” should be released.
When Hanyu Hideki arrived at Fuji TV, he was dragged into the screening room by Minato Koichi.
“Hanyu-san, this is Motoko Sugiyama, the director of the animation department, this is…”
Entering the screening room, Minato Koichi first introduced Hanyu Hideki to a circle of relevant people from the TV station.
Among them, the highest position is the director of the animation department, Sugiyama Motoko.
There are also acquaintances, such as Nakamura Nakamura, the animation supervisor of “Magic Snack Shop”.
After getting to know each other, Hideki Hanyu and Koichi Koichi found a seat and sat down.
Before the animation started, Minato complained to Hideki Hanyu in a low voice.
“Hanyu-san, if you let people follow you to learn animation production, you can learn it. It’s okay to go back and establish an animation production club after learning, but why do you take people from our subordinate animation production club with you when you leave?”
“What? There is such a thing?” Hanyu Hideki was surprised.
He didn’t expect that the first thing Gang Haoyi said to him was to complain about his employees, who were poaching the corners of Fujidai’s animation production club.
From this point of view, the employees he sent to study should be very ruthless, otherwise Gang Haoyi would not have complained to him in person.
And he was surprised because he really didn’t know.
“Of course it’s true. Fortunately, the person who took it away was not from the production team of the Miracle Snack Shop, otherwise the production of the Miracle Snack Shop would have been delayed.”
“Hao Yi-sang, don’t worry, I will definitely investigate this matter seriously when I go back, and give Hao Yi-sang an explanation.”
Hideki Hanyu made a solemn promise.
When he asked to establish an animation production club, he told everyone to let them do it.
But you can’t dig people to the partner, which is somewhat embarrassing.
“That’s not enough. I just want to say that I can’t poach people anymore.”
Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu hastily promised, “It won’t happen, absolutely not.”
These bastards don’t look at the place when they dig people, which makes him so embarrassed as the boss.
Although Gang Haoyi expressed that he didn’t mind, he had to ask clearly that this kind of poaching of the partner’s corner was too bad a reputation.
After talking about poaching, Gang Haoyi continued, “The broadcast time of Miracle Snack Shop has been confirmed, and it will be before the ninth slot next week.”
Neon expresses every week from Monday to Sunday with the moon, fire, water, wood, metal, and earth, and the day will be added after the address.
Monday is also Sunday.
And the ninth file of the month, that is, the broadcast schedule at nine o’clock on Monday night.
The time period with the highest number of viewers for Neon is from [-]:[-] p.m. to [-]:[-] p.m. every day.
Before the ninth file of the month, it means that “Magic Snack Shop” will be played on the prime time between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] on Monday.
Even though Fuji TV’s monthly ninth file has not yet become a signature time slot, it is clear that Fuji TV is very optimistic about this animation because it can broadcast the animation in prime time.
In this era, the number of TV animations produced is much less than that of later generations, so it is not uncommon for TV animations to be prime time.
Unlike later, except for those popular cartoons, the animations of small and medium-sized production companies are basically put in the late-night file.
