Chapter 157 Mario Brothers

No matter how well-known the three studios become in the future, they were still a group of rookies when they were first established.

He doesn’t even have a direction for what game project he wants to do, so he can only start his own work one by one under the arrangement of Hideki Hanyu.

Kurohara Ma is responsible for the ‘sacred studio’, and continues to be responsible for the arcade development of Saint Seiya.

The “Magic Studio” managed by Satoru Iwata needs to cooperate with the hardware department managed by Tetsuya Aragaki to fully develop the electronic pet “Tamako”.

Only Yuji Horii is in charge of the “Myth Studio”, and there has been no work arrangement.

It had been two days since the meeting ended, and Horii Yuji, who really couldn’t take time off, found Hideki Hanyu in person.

Knocking on the door and entering Hideki Hanyu’s office in Yunshang Culture, he saw Hideki Hanyu lying on the table writing and drawing.

On the sofa in the office, Horii Yuji saw an unfolded quilt.

On the table in front of the sofa, unfinished bottles of oolong tea and empty bento boxes can still be seen.

Obviously, during the few days after the meeting, Hideki Hanyu probably didn’t even go home because of work, and was busy in the office all the time.

Involuntarily, Horii Yuji had a little more respect for the young chairman.

In the eyes of outsiders, Hanyu Hideki is definitely considered a success, but he is still able to work so hard.

In his place, after having Hideki Hanyu’s wealth and status, can he still focus on one thing so much?
Yuji Horii couldn’t be sure.

But he felt that the arrogance generated by winning the award in the video game design competition before had all disappeared at this moment.

The chairman who is younger, better than him, and more successful than him has worked so hard, so what is his little achievement.

“Horii-san, sit down quickly, you came just in time, I was going to find Horii-san.”

Hideki Hanyu warmly greeted Yuji Horii to sit down.

However, I was a little embarrassed when I found out that the bento I ate last night and the quilt on the sofa hadn’t been cleaned yet.

“Sorry, I’ve been so busy last night that I really don’t have time to clean up.”

Horii Yuji heard this and couldn’t help asking, “President Hanyu hasn’t slept for the past two days?”

Hanyu Hideki smiled and explained, “No, actually I slept a little the night before yesterday.”

“President Hanyu, please pay attention to your body.”

Horii Yuji heard that Hideki Hanyu hadn’t had much rest for two days and two nights, so he couldn’t help but be concerned.

“It doesn’t matter, I’m still young, I can still hold on for two days.” Hanyu Hideki said indifferently.

According to his personality on weekdays, he would not let himself live such a stressful and hard life.

But time doesn’t wait for him, it’s already September of 82, if you don’t hurry up for some things, it will really be too late.

“Is Chairman Hanyu doing any important work?” Yuji Horii asked curiously.

Hanyu Hideki did not answer, but instead asked Horii Yuji, “Why did Horii-san seek me?”

Horii Yuji answered honestly, “I see that the other two studios have been assigned projects, and I would like to ask when my Shinhwa studio will start working?”

Hanyu Hideki continued to ask, “Are Horii-san and the rest of the studio familiar?”

The “Sacred Studio” is the original crew, and the Tibetan original horse does not need to be familiar with it, and can work directly under direct command.

“Magic Studio” is also the original team of HAL, and Satoshi Iwata can directly direct and start work without being familiar with it.

But “Mythology Studio” is different. Even Yuji Horii, Koichi Nakamura, and Yukinobu Chida just met at the game design competition.

Before starting, it is necessary for strangers to get to know each other well, otherwise problems will definitely arise if they start working together directly.

“We’ve already known each other. We’ve been chatting in our free time for the past two days. If we want to get to know each other better, I think it’s better to get to know each other at work.”

Hideki Hanyu nodded, “That’s right, we all get to know each other after working together for a few days.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and picked up the stack of documents he had just sorted out on the desk, and said to Yuji Horii, “Horii-san, please come with me.”

Hanyu Hideki took Horii Yuji all the way to the office and leisure area of ​​Spirit Entertainment.

This place was specially requested by Hideki Hanyu to let the employees who are busy with work relax on weekdays.

The leisure area not only has snack cabinets, coffee and beverage machines, billiard table, football game table, TV, video recorder, but also a whole row of arcade game machines.

When the two arrived here, several employees were drinking coffee. When they saw Hideki Hanyu and the person in charge of Shinhwa Studio coming over, they hurriedly said hello.

Hideki Hanyu signaled them not to worry about it, and brought Horii Yuji to the front of the row of game arcade machines.

Pointing to one of Nintendo’s Donkey Kong consoles, he asked Yuji Horii, “Have you ever played this game, Horii-san?”

Horii Yuji nodded, “I played.”

Donkey Kong is considered to be a very classic arcade game developed by Nintendo, and there are not many game lovers who have never played it.

Hideki Hanyu pointed to the protagonist in the game who was knocking on the barrel with a hammer, “Horii-san, do you know who this protagonist is? What occupation do you think he is?”

“Nintendo doesn’t seem to have officially named the protagonist. I think he is holding a gavel. He should be a woodworker.”

Yuji Horii didn’t understand Hideki Hanyu’s purpose for asking these questions at all.

However, as a straightforward programmer, Yuji Horii answered Hideki Hanyu’s question and couldn’t help being curious, so he asked.

“What President Hanyu wants to do, you should just tell me.”

Hanyu Hideki smiled helplessly and began to explain.

“When I was playing this game the day before yesterday, based on this image, I came up with a new arcade game, a story about a pair of plumber brothers named Mario and Luigi who destroy sewer monsters.”

After he finished speaking, he didn’t hold back, and handed the stack of documents in his hand to Yuji Horii.

This is a new game project he designed without closing his eyes for two days and two nights.

The plan includes game design, gameplay, and colorful renderings.

In the rendering, at the top of the fixed screen, two metal sewer pipes continuously spit out turtles and gold coins of different colors.

Players operate Mario and Luigi brothers, flip the turtle over the wall, and then kick it away.

While killing the turtle monster, Brother Plumber has to catch the gold coins falling from the pipe.

This game is “Mario Brothers”, which will be released with the Nintendo FC game console next year.

The final sales volume of “Mario Brothers” was only more than 100 million copies, which seems to be very average.

But it gave birth to “Super Mario Bros.”, which allowed Nintendo to dominate the world game market and is the most famous in the history of video games.

Top gold coins, top bricks, eat mushrooms, step on mushrooms, step on turtles, drill pipes, defeat fire dragons, save the princess…

There is no need to say how classic “Super Mario Bros.” is.

The status of this super IP in the game industry is not inferior to the existence of “Pokémon”.

Since Hideki Hanyu had the opportunity, of course he had to make it ahead of time before Nintendo started research and development.

In order to avoid touching the image patent, Hideki Hanyu also deliberately modified the appearance of the plumber.

But the shape is not important, the most classic of this game is its game mechanism.

For Hanyu Hideki, the next work of Spirit Entertainment, the research and development of “Mario Brothers”, even surpassed that of electronic pets.

Horii Yuji looked at the game design plan very quickly. Firstly, this project was not long in the first place, and secondly, Hanyu Hideki’s design ideas were extremely clear and mature.

There are a total of eight levels, and the falling turtle monster will change color as the level progresses, and its speed and lethality will also increase accordingly.

In addition to being able to prop up the turtle monster through the wall, the two Mario brothers can also prop up gold coins through the wall.

Even at the end of the project, Hideki Hanyu even wrote out the simple concept of the second-generation game of “Mario Brothers”.

The monsters falling out of the pipe can increase the types and functions, and even drop other functional props.

For example, stars that will become invincible after eating, flowers that can shoot fireballs, and mushrooms that make the body bigger.

Hanyu Hideki saw Horii Yuji observing the content of the second-generation game he designed, and did not explain aloud, allowing the other party to understand.

The second generation of “Mario Brothers” he envisioned, but it only increased the content of the game, and it was still a fixed-screen game.

Not the full-fledged side-scrolling version of Super Mario Bros.

It is still too early to take that out. Firstly, their technology cannot meet the requirements, and secondly, there is no suitable platform.

As long as “Mario Bros.” is occupied by them, “Super Mario Bros.” is in the bag.

Facing the patent madman Nintendo and the strongest legal department in the eastern hemisphere, it is absolutely impossible not to seize the IP in advance.

The patent he wants to preempt is definitely not just Mario Brothers.

For example, such as Nintendo’s cross-key operation.

Knowing that it is better to use, but because of patent protection, other manufacturers cannot use it at all.

However, Neon’s patents are divided into two types, one is [utility model right], and the other is [invention patent].

The latter type of [invention patent], also called patent patent, has extremely strict protection and cannot be used without permission.

The protection of the first type of [Utility Model Right] is relatively loose, as long as the copy is not completely and thoroughly copied, basically no infringement will be imposed.

The cross-key operation that Gunhei Yokoi helped Nintendo design is not an invention patent, but a [utility model right].

In order to spare this patent, Sega later invented its own cross key.

In terms of appearance, slightly change the shape of the cross key.

In terms of function realization, the cross key is inlaid with round small steel balls on the key.

Sega put the small steel balls on the cushion, relying on this tricky way, it just bypassed Nintendo’s new cross key rights.

For this patent, Hideki Hanyu asked Tetsuya Aragaki to apply for the patent immediately.

Regardless of whether you use it or not, you must have it, so as to save you from asking others when you want to use it in the future.

Of course, in addition to this, there are other hardware and software patents, and Tetsuya Aragaki has applied for all that Hideki Hanyu can think of.

Later generations of Nintendo relied on a large number of patents to build patent barriers, making other competitors miserable.

Although Nintendo has always been generous, as long as they give money, they will not refuse other manufacturers to use their patents.
But if you are not afraid of [-], you are afraid of the eventuality. It is better to plan ahead than to do nothing.

It’s very touching to think about collecting patent fees from Nintendo.

Opportunities to moleste the strongest legal department in the eastern hemisphere don’t come all the time.

While Hideki Hanyu was thinking about things, Yuji Horii had already finished reading the game design plan.

“President Hanyu, I have to say that this is a very interesting game design.”

Hideki Hanyu asked, “Is it okay to leave it to Horii-san for development?”

Horii Yuji asked, “In addition to developing the arcade version, can you also develop the computer platform?”

Hanyu Hideki knew that Horii Yuji had a soft spot for computer platforms, so he nodded and said, “Yes.”

But before he waited for Horii Yuji to speak, he emphasized again.

“The development of other platforms must be placed after the arcade version. I only have one requirement for the development of this game, and that is to be fast.”

“President Hanyu hopes that we can finish the development soon.”

Looking at Hideki Hanyu’s serious expression, Yuji Horii felt that the situation was not good.

Hideki Hanyu raised a finger, “One month, in October, I will see the finished game on the market.”

“It’s too fast!” Horii Yuji said in surprise.

“I have already completed the game mechanism and game screen design. All you have to do is program design.”

Hideki Hanyu continued bluntly, “If you want equipment, I will give you the equipment. If you want personnel, I will give you the right to recruit personnel. I only ask that the development must be completed within one month. This game is very important to Elf Entertainment.”

Hearing Hideki Hanyu’s request, Horii Yuji, for some reason, remembered the unmade quilt in Hideki Hanyu’s office, and the bento box he had thrown away in a hurry.

As the chairman, Hideki Hanyu can do that, and the effect of taking the lead can be produced immediately.

In an instant, Yuuji Horii’s heart surged with an unwillingness to admit defeat.

“One month, the development task must be completed.” Yuji Horii promised loudly.

“Then I’ll leave it to Horii-san.” Hanyu Hideki bowed slightly.

“President Hanyu, don’t worry, I’ll start working right away.” Yuji Horii took the plan, turned around and left with great vigor.

“Young people have passion.” At this time, a woman’s voice came from beside him.

Hanyu Hideki turned around and saw that Eri Kitahara had walked behind them at some point.

“Kitahara-san, don’t pretend to be very old, okay?”

“Except for the hardware R&D department, I am indeed the oldest.”

Eri Kitahara felt emotionally.

Hanyu Hideki thought about it after hearing the words, it seems that this is really the case.

He didn’t say anything himself, the staff of the three game development studios were basically in their early twenties.

Hideki Hanyu didn’t struggle with his age for too long.

After completing the development arrangement of “Mario Brothers”, the work of Elf Entertainment has basically come to an end, and there are other things to be busy.

He said to Eri Kitahara, “Let’s leave to Kitahara-san for the next thing here.”

“Hanyu-san has worked hard.”

Eri Kitahara knew that Hideki Hanyu couldn’t stay with Yunshang Culture all the time.

After all, he has been out for a week, and there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with at Yunying Painting.

She was surprised that Hideki Hanyu was able to work hard at Spirit Entertainment for two days.

She used to be the exclusive person in charge of Hanyu Hideki of the Shogakukan, but she knew very well what a lazy person Hanyu Hideki was.

“Then I’ll go first.”

“Goodbye, Hanyu-san.”

……

After going out, Hanyu Hideki didn’t return home, and drove directly to Yunying Hua.

All the way to Hirohashi Asako’s office, I began to understand the recent work.

First of all, I asked about the work arrangement of the animation on the cloud, which has just started and has no works.

From Hirohashi Asako’s mouth, he learned.

In the theatrical version of “Magic Snack Shop”, after Fuji TV decided to be represented by the animation department, the production committee went through various interest negotiations, and finally it was formally established.

However, Eri Kitahara also told him about this matter, after all, Yunshang Culture is also one of the members of the production committee of “Magic Snack Shop”.

It’s just that Yunshang Culture is only a participant, and Yunshang Pictures, as the producer, is also the party with the largest share in the production committee, so they understand it more clearly.

After the establishment of the production committee, the production of the theatrical version of “Magic Snack Shop” officially started.

The animation supervision will be continued by Tatsuo Nakamura, the supervisor of TV animation.

With the completion of the production of the TV animation of “Magic Snack Shop”, the supervisor also took time off, and happened to be seconded by Yunying Pictures.

Another project of Yunshang Animation, the TV animation of “Saint Seiya”, is still proceeding in an orderly manner.

Considering that this is the first time for Yunshang Animation to produce TV animation, everyone is working hard to make a high-quality work.

Quality and speed are always inversely proportional, so if you want to see “Saint Seiya” broadcast online, there is no hope until the end of the year.

Let’s go back to the Yunying Pictures project. Of course, the advertising business is still in an old state. There are too many people to be busy, and there are not enough recruits all day long.

Fortunately, with the continuous success of the advertisements, Yun Shang Pictures is now one of the clubs that college students majoring in neon related and want to join after graduation.

Even because its own mechanism is fairer, it is easier for newcomers to stand out.

In addition to graduates, it has also attracted many talented practitioners who are frustrated by their qualifications to join Yunying Pictures.

As for the film business, with “Love, Go Home” and “I’m Sorry So Cute”, the box office has exceeded 30 billion and 35 billion respectively.

Filmmakers and clubs in the industry have already started to come to Yunying Pictures with their shooting projects to discuss cooperation and attract investment.

For a while, Yunying Painting became an upstart sought after by everyone in the film industry.

Fortunately, Asako Hirohashi was not dazzled by her grades, and she also knew how bad the neon film market is now.

Unknowingly, if my two films are successful, the next one will definitely be successful.

Therefore, when facing filmmakers who attract investment, the screening is very strict.

For those filmmakers who have not proven themselves, or projects that have no future at first sight, they don’t think too much.

But there are those who don’t like it, and naturally there are also those who think it is worth cooperating with.

Asako Hirohashi still thinks that she can give it a try for those who have proven her ability or are invited to cooperate by industry conferences.

Having said that, Asako Hirohashi took out a shooting plan and handed it to Hideki Hanyu.

“This cooperation project, I think it’s not bad.”

Hanyu Hideki took a look at the plan and said softly, “An invitation from Kadokawa?”

He saw the name of Kadokawa Yinghua written on the cover of the proposal.

In this era, Kadokawa Pictures has not yet developed to the scale of later generations, and it is common to cooperate with other clubs in the industry.

For example, Kamata March, which will be released in October, was produced by Kadokawa and Shochiku Films.

It’s not just Kadokawa and Shochiku, Neon is such a big place, and the market is so poor now.

Basically, the major film clubs are both competing and cooperating. After all, cooperation can share risks and expand the scale of screenings.

Of course, most of the cooperation is limited to the live-action movie part, and the more profitable animation theatrical version, or the special film theatrical version, are basically exclusive.

“The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Space, is that science fiction short story written by Yasutaka Mai?”

Hideki Hanyu saw in the proposal of Kadokawa Films, the title of the movie is “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Space”.

“That’s right, this is a work published by Yasutaka Mai at Kadokawa Shoten. The reputation of this work is still very good. What does Hanyu-san think, should we cooperate?”

Hideki Hanyu nodded, “I think it’s possible.”

If I remember correctly, next year will be a big box office hit for Neon Movies.

There are six films on the annual box office list that have exceeded 45 billion yen in box office.

The box office of the first “ET Alien” reached 135 billion, breaking the Neon box office record and becoming the first Neon movie to break through [-] billion.

The “Antarctic Story” that followed it also set a box office of more than [-] billion, which greatly improved the box office record of Neon’s own film.

And this “Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Space” also ranked among the top ten neon box office charts in 1983, ranking fifth with a total box office of more than 47 billion yen.

This kind of movie that is going to make a lot of money at the first glance, of course Yunying Pictures can’t let it go.

“Okay, then I will arrange for someone to discuss cooperation.”

For Hanyu Hideki’s vision, Hirohashi Asako still trusts it.

“Did you say anything about their request for cooperation?” Hideki Hanyu asked.

“Kadokawa hopes that we will be the producer, with Ito-san as the supervisor, and Yunyou Pictures on the production committee to bear the production costs.”

“No problem, try to get as much investment share as possible.”

“I see.”

After Hirohashi Asako finished speaking, she took out another film project plan and handed it to Hanyu Hideki.

“This project was provided by Kawasaki Yoshisuke.”

Hearing Hirohashi Asako’s words, Hanyu Hideki immediately remembered the information of this Supervisor Kawasaki Yoshisuke.

What impresses me the most is that this supervisor likes to use Miura Yukazu as the leading actor.

Miura Yuwa and Yamaguchi Momoe were able to get together, the director contributed a lot.

After all, Miura Yuwa and Yamaguchi Momoe’s “Wind and Snow Dusk” and “Flame Dance” were all supervised by this Kawasaki Yoshisuke.

If I remember correctly, last year this guy also helped Johnny & Associates shoot the movie “Youth Graffiti” featuring a scumbag Kondo.

It can be regarded as a neon alternative idol film director in the 80s and [-]s.

The script provided by the other party this time is called “The Legend of Burmese Gardenia: Kiss of Heaven”.

Somewhat familiar, think about it carefully, isn’t this the movie translated into “Legend of Plumelia: Kiss of Heaven” in China?
The starring role seems to be Seiko Matsuda, a complete fan movie.

I remember that when the movie was promoted, it was promoted under the gimmick of Seiko Matsuda’s first kiss on the screen.

The box office seems to have exceeded 20 billion yen, ranking among the top ten of Neon’s 1983 box office list.

Considering the ability to make money, Hanyu Hideki said, “This project can be discussed with Director Yoshisuke Kawasaki.”

But what Hirohashi Asako said next surprised Hideki Hanyu.

“Supervisor Yoshisuke Kawasaki hopes that Akina-chan will play the heroine, and then join forces with Johnny’s idols to play the male lead.”

“What!” Hideki Hanyu thought he didn’t hear clearly.

“Supervisor Kawasaki said that this movie is an ordinary romance movie, and it needs to rely on idol stars to drive the box office.” Hirohashi Asako explained.

“Absolutely not. There are a lot of kissing scenes in this movie, which doesn’t fit Akina Nakamori’s current personality, and is Asako-san sure to cooperate with Johnny & Associates?”

Hanyu Hideki was decisive.

What a joke, let Nakamori Akina and Johnny’s people do a kissing scene.

Not to mention that Yun On Pictures and Johnny & Associates are already on fire, they are the biggest competitors in the industry, and it is impossible to cooperate.

In case the person sent by Genis is Kondo’s scumbag, then he will wait to receive the blade from outside the dimension wall.

“It is of course impossible to cooperate with Johnny & Associates. Anyway, the filming is still in preparation, and our trainee recruitment will start soon. When the time comes, the leading actor can arrange our people.”

Asako Hirohashi mentioned this and emphasized, “But if the actor chooses a newcomer, the heroine must choose a popular artist, otherwise the box office cannot be guaranteed at all.”

“In the entertainment industry, Yun Shang Pictures can’t always eat alone, contact Sony and Sun Music Office, and invite Seiko Matsuda to star.”

Speaking of Matsuda Seiko, Hanyu Hideki was quite emotional.

When he was still penniless, he met the other party by accident in the elementary school hall.

Later, he cooperated with Yunying Pictures’ famous advertisement “Thousand Layers Routine”.

It’s just that there will be no more cooperation in the future.

Now it seems that there is another opportunity for cooperation.

Anyway, “The Legend of Burmese Gardenia: Kiss of Heaven” is originally the work of Matsuda Seiko. In order to ensure that the box office will not fail, there is no problem in choosing the original leading role.

“Matsuda Seiko? It’s more suitable than Mingcaijiang, so let someone contact you.”

Hirohashi Asako also agreed.

At this time, Hideki Hanyu remembered the sequel of “Sorry I’m So Cute” that was still being filmed, and asked Asako Hirohashi.

“How did Supervisor Kurokawa film in Hokkaido?”

“The filming report is quite smooth, but the progress is a bit slow. According to the crew, it is because Kurokawa has a lot of his own ideas in the filming, and often makes different attempts.”

Hanyu Hideki frowned when he heard that, “It’s a good thing to have ideas, but the progress of the filming must not be delayed, and the schedule for Vitality Girls is limited.”

Thinking that the second single of Vitality Girl will be recorded immediately, and there is still choreography to learn.

In addition to Fuji TV, Asahi TV is still waiting for cooperation programs.

It is impossible for Vitality Girl to stay in Hokkaido to make movies all the time.

“Today, Santomo Iijima will bring Akina Sauce to join the filming. I will arrange for someone to follow along and urge Kurokawa to film as soon as possible.”

Hirohashi Asako obviously already had an idea.

“Didn’t Akina-chan die in the last movie? How could she still be a guest star?” Hanyu Hideki asked strangely.

For the first film of “I’m Sorry So Cute”, he also provided an outline at any rate, and co-wrote the screenwriter with Etsuko Kitagawa.

When it comes to this sequel movie, Hideki Hanyu did not participate in the creation of the story at all, and it was completely discussed and completed by Kitagawa Etsuko and Kurokawa Oki.

Therefore, he has no idea what the movie, which is titled “I’m Sorry So Cute”, is about.

“Did Hanyu-san not even read the script? In the story, three girls traveled to Hokkaido, and then met a girl who looked exactly like their predecessors.” Hirohashi Asako said.

“Is that so? In order to get together the cast of the previous film, this plot is really bloody.”

Hanyu Hideki couldn’t help complaining.

He didn’t have any expectations for this kind of fan movie.

Unexpectedly, Asako Hirohashi explained, “Actually, the script is still very good. Compared with the first one, it is more humanistic and artistic.”

“Well, anyway, as long as you don’t lose money.”

Hideki Hanyu didn’t pay attention to the humanistic thinking and artistry that Asako Hirohashi said.

Fan movies, in addition to cutting the leeks of fans, are for the purpose of promoting music works when they are released, as long as the quality is acceptable.

After learning about Oki Kurokawa’s filming, Hideki Hanyu continued to discuss other work matters with Asako Hirohashi.

For example, at the Yunshang Arts and Energy Office, it is about the construction progress of the trainee training system.

Chatting until noon, Hanyu Hideki invited Hirohashi Asako and Yoshioka Shota who happened to be at the club to have lunch.

When he was about to get busy with other things, Koichi Koichi came to his door.

This guy didn’t know where he got the information from. He knew that he was painting in the clouds today, so he immediately came to block people.

“Hanyu-san, I’ve already thought about the program of the vitality girl.”

In the reception room of Yunying Painting, Gang Haoyi asked Hanyu Hideki eagerly.

“All right.”

Hanyu Hideki didn’t hold back anymore, and handed over the project of “Genki Cafeteria” he had written to Koichi Koichi.

“Yuanqi Canteen…”

Gang Haoyi muttered to himself strangely, and cut down carefully.

Hanyu Hideki didn’t speak, and quietly waited for Koichi Koichi to finish watching.

After a while, Gang Hao slapped the armrest of the sofa and said excitedly.

“Hanyu-san’s idea for this show is really interesting. It allows the members of Genki Girls to show their characteristics more clearly when they cook. In addition to interacting with the guests, I think the ratings will definitely be quite good.”

Koichi Koichi is obviously very optimistic about “Genki Canteen”.

“Since Hao Yi-san thinks it’s good, then we can formally talk about cooperation.”

“Yes, I will immediately arrange for someone to come to Yunying Pictures to discuss the details of the cooperation. As long as the cooperation is confirmed, the production bureau will make preparations before the shooting as soon as possible, and then try to make the show go live before the year.”

Gang Haoyi was a little impatient.

“I will also fully cooperate with Koichi-san’s work here.” Hideki Hanyu stood up and shook Koichi Koichi’s hand.

It has been decided to cooperate, how to carry out the cooperation and how to distribute the benefits, there is no need for them to discuss it, and naturally there will be a special person in charge.

“How about I treat Hanyu-san to have a drink next?” Minato Koichi warmly invited.

Hanyu Hideki raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and found that it was only three o’clock.

“Hao Yi-sang, let’s forget about this time, I have something to go to the publishing house in the afternoon.”

As soon as Gang Hao heard the words, he didn’t insist, “Then another day.”

“It’s not too late to drink after the cooperation is negotiated, Hao Yisang, I’m leaving first.”

Hanyu Hideki bid farewell to Koichi Koichi, and after leaving the headquarters of Yunying Pictures, he drove to the Xiaoshokan.

Instead of looking for the cooperation team responsible for his work, he went straight to the office of the head of the General Affairs Department, Masahiro Aika.

“Good afternoon, Mr. Hanyu, how did you go on this trip?”

After Masahiro Aiga warmly welcomed Hideki Hanyu, he hurriedly ordered the secretary to serve tea.

“Hey…! Don’t mention it, I was blocked by reporters in the hotel for several days.” Hanyu Hideki looked annoyed.

“It can only be said that Hanyu-sensei is too popular.”

Aiga Masahiro naturally heard the gossip about Hanyu Hideki and Takarazuka Maiden.

At this time, the secretary just brought the tea, and Aiga Masahiro asked Hanyu Hideki while drinking tea through Hanyu Hideki.

“I wonder how Mr. Hanyu finished the picture book that I told Mr. Hanyu last time.”

“This time I came to visit Mr. Saga for this purpose. I have finished the picture book. Please take a look at Mr. Saga.”

As Hanyu Hideki said, he took out a manuscript of a picture book and handed it to Masahiro Aiga.

Aiga Masahiro carefully took the manuscript, glanced at it, and read out the name on the cover of the manuscript, “Owl under the Moon.”

Hideki Hanyu said, “This picture book is the work that took the longest time to create since my debut.”

This picture book titled “Owl Under the Moon” has a slightly literary style and is more in-depth than his previous picture books.

In addition, although he refers to previous works, whether it is paintings or stories, he has created original works according to his own habits.

Therefore, it is extremely energy-intensive and time-consuming to create.

After completing the creation of the work in Manshiwu, he also polished it several times in the days of staying in Takarazuka City, and only then did he have the current finished product.

After listening to Hideki Hanyu’s explanation, Masahiro Aiga carefully flipped through the original manuscript of the picture book.

Masahiro Aiga watched it very carefully. After all, for Shogakukan, they planned to use this work to help Hideki Hanyu compete for the Caldecott Award.

Ten minutes passed, and Masahiro Aiga, who had read the manuscript, sighed.

“I am no longer qualified to judge a very in-depth work.”

After Masahiro Agata finished speaking, he carefully put down the manuscript.

Seeing this, Hideki Hanyu asked, “Agent Saga thinks it can be used?”

“Of course, but in my opinion, this picture book is not suitable for the first release in Neon. I think it is better to go to overseas for the first release. What does Mr. Hanyu think?”

Aga Masahiro thinks that the depth of this picture book is good, but it limits the readability.

First go abroad for the first time, if you can win the big prize, then sell it back to Neon later, the sales will probably be even better.

“Okay, I’ve already handed over the picture book to Specialist Xiangga, and the operation will be decided by the Shogakukan.”

Hideki Hanyu thought of something, “I have to leave the English translation to Shogakukan.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Hanyu, the Shogakukan will find the best translator for translation. After all, this picture book is also very important to the Shogakukan.”

“Then I’ll leave it to Specialist Saga.”

“Mr. Hanyu, I will let the cooperation team connect with Yunshang Culture for the signing work.”

“Okay, then I won’t bother Mr. Xianghe, goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

Saying goodbye to Masahiro Aiga and walking out of the gate of the Shogakukan, Hideki Hanyu stretched his waist.

Among the previous projects in Takarazuka City, the cooperation with TV Asahi was left undiscussed.

However, he is going to hand over to Yoshioka Shota the responsibility, and the planning has already been done with his help. Next, we only need to communicate well and determine the details of the cooperation.

After all, his imposing boss always rushes to the front line to discuss business in person, so what’s the use of hiring so many employees.

For Koichi Koichi, it was because the two had a good personal relationship, otherwise, in terms of rank, there was no need for him to communicate in person.

I went to Takarazuka on the surface for a trip, but I was busy writing plans during the day and dealing with my girlfriend at night, which was more tiring than being in Tokyo.

After I came back, I was busy at Elf Entertainment for two days and two nights.

What he wants to do most now is to lie on the terrace of Master House and bask in the sun.

After driving back to Wanshiwu, just after parking the car in the garage, I saw Nako Lulu running over, rubbing her tail against his legs.

The little female cat seems to be in good condition. His assistant Reiko Uemura obviously took good care of him during the two days of overtime at Elf Entertainment.

“Come, let the master kiss.”

Hanyu Hideki picked up the little female cat and gave it a kiss, but the little female cat didn’t dodge, but leaned close to her.

“Oh, you little elf who seduced the master, look at it.” Hanyu Hideki patted the little female cat jokingly.

While playing, he returned to the house with the little female cat in his arms.

After bathing and relaxing, and changing clothes for home use, Hideki Hanyu came to the terrace on the second floor with a glass of juice.

He just lay on the couch and began to enjoy the warm sunshine in the afternoon comfortably.

While Hideki Hanyu was lying on the terrace, basking in the sun comfortably, Akina Nakamori also got on the plane to Hokkaido.

In addition to her management team, there was also a producer from Yunying Pictures.

Akina Nakamori heard from her well-informed little assistant that the producer came along because Hideki Hanyu felt that Kurokawa supervised the filming progress too slowly.

After the plane climbed, the little assistant who was sitting next to Akina Nakamori came over again and whispered the gossip in the circle.

Flying is always boring, but now there is a little assistant to understand the boredom, Nakamori Akina also listens with gusto, adding a sentence or two from time to time.

“Sony has already prepared a new female idol group, and I heard that they will debut next week.”

“It was ready in such a short time, it really deserves to be Sony.”

“and also……”

As the little assistant talked, he unknowingly talked about Hideki Hanyu who had just finished his trip.

The little assistant said that Hideki Hanyu had just finished his trip and was at Yunshang Culture in Shinagawa District. He had been busy for two days and didn’t go home.

“How do you know that President Hanyu has been busy in Shinagawa District for two days and hasn’t come home?”

Akina Nakamori was a little surprised, she didn’t even have a chance to meet Hideki Hanyu when she came back.

His little assistant was so well informed that even Hideki Hanyu knew that he hadn’t returned to Wanshiwu for two days.

“When Yunshang Culture was still on the sixth floor, I met a friend there. He told me that everyone in Shinagawa District knew that President Hanyu hadn’t rested for two days.”

“So it’s like this, Hideki-kun is working too hard, I don’t even know how to pay attention…”

Akina Nakamori was halfway through speaking, and found that the little assistant’s eyes were wrong, so she quickly swallowed back the words that she didn’t pay attention to her body.

She hastily changed the subject and asked the little assistant, “Didn’t Chairman Hanyu come to the headquarters in Minato today?”

Although the little assistant was gossip, she was very winky.

When she realized that Akina Nakamori was covering up something, she didn’t dare to ask any more questions, and answered just as Akina Nakamori said.

“Yeah, I’ve been chatting with President Hirohashi all morning, and I heard from the people over at Yinghua that they have decided to release two movies next year.”

When the little assistant said this, he suddenly looked at Akina Mori with erratic eyes.

After Nakamori Akina found out, she asked strangely, “What’s wrong?”

“I heard from the people at Yinghua that one of the films co-operated with director Yoshisuke Kawasaki originally wanted Akina-san to star in it, but President Hanyu rejected it and instead invited Seiko Matsuda.”

The little assistant said in a low voice.

“What? Why?” Nakamori Akina was unhappy, and the feeling of grievance suddenly came out.

She couldn’t figure out why Hideki Hanyu didn’t let her star in the movie, and gave the role to his rival Seiko Matsuda.

Seeing that Akina Nakamori was in a bad mood, the assistant hurriedly explained, “I heard that it’s because there are a lot of kissing scenes in the script, President Hanyu doesn’t want you to do kissing scenes.”

“Ah…so you don’t want me to do a kissing scene?”

Hearing this reason, all the grievances and unhappiness just now disappeared in an instant.

Instead, there was a sweet feeling of being cared for.

Since the movie “Dotonbori River” was released, the large-scale scenes of the starring Keiko Matsuzaka and Hiroyuki Sanada were exposed, and a news began to circulate in the circle.

That’s why Hanyu Hideki and Matsuzaka Keiko broke up because that Matsuzaka Keiko insisted on making revealing scenes.

Hanyu Hideki disagreed, which eventually led to the separation of the two.

When Akina Nakamori heard that Hideki Hanyu didn’t even let her film the kiss scene, she couldn’t help but have many associations in her mind.

Maybe……

While Nakamori Akina was thinking about it, the assistant next to him saw that Nakamori Akina’s face was getting redder, and asked concerned, “Akina-san, are you feeling unwell?”

“No no!”

Akina Nakamori frantically denied it.

While speaking, he hurriedly fanned his hot face with his small hands, as if doing so would make the temperature drop rapidly.
