Is it not a galgame?

Chapter 145 49. Almost Forgot
In mid-December, as soon as Qing Zhiyuan walked into the company and sat down in his office, he saw the little HR coming over with something flushed with excitement.

From the moment he stepped into the company's gate, this guy has been staring at himself the whole time.

"President!"

Akane Ayase called out mysteriously.

"What?" Qing Zhiyuan took a step back, "Don't do this, it's a bit creepy."

"Hmph! President, you bad guy, you kindly brought important things here for you." Akane Ayase puffed her face and stared at Qing Zhiyuan resentfully.

"What's important?" Qing Zhiyuan asked suspiciously.

"do you know?"

Akane Ayase smiled, she didn't seem to care too much about the president's rude words just now, but took out an envelope hidden behind her back and handed it to Qing Zhiyuan.

Qing Zhiyuan frowned, not daring to reach out to pick it up.

"Could it be the blade?"

Since Akane Ayase told him the correct way to [send blades] last time, he now has a natural fear of envelopes, especially letters from unknown sources.

The worst thing was that Qing Zhiyuan took a glance and saw that the recipient's name on the envelope was not Gu Yuan Chunqiu, but Qing Zhiyuan himself.

Teeth white.

Shouldn't his identity be exposed?
"President, do you have persecution paranoia?" Akane Ayase gently smoothed the envelope with her hands, fearing that it would be stained with dust, then pinched the left and right corners with both hands, and handed it to Qing Zhiyuan again.

"This is a letter from Studio Ghibli."

"Ghibli?" Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, feeling even more confused.

Of course he knew Studio Ghibli, the famous Hayao Miyazaki, the old man's movie Qing Zhiyuan had watched a lot in his previous life.

It's just that he is different from others. In his mind, Hayao Miyazaki's No.1 work is not "Spirited Away" in 2001, but "Princess Mononoke" in 1997.

In Qing Zhiyuan's view, although "Spirited Away" is famous and internationally renowned, Princess Mononoke seems to be more representative in terms of depth and level of thought.

Of course, basically as long as Qing Zhiyuan likes Hayao Miyazaki's works, that's all.

"Why Ghibli? We have nothing to do with Studio Ghibli." Qing Zhiyuan was at a loss, completely confused.

"Don't you know it after reading it?" Akane Akane said with a smile.

When it was over, I seemed to think of something, so I added, "Don't worry, the real Studio Ghibli has no blades."

……

Qing Zhiyuan nodded, took the envelope, and opened it to read.

This is an invitation from Studio Ghibli.

In this era, computers and the Internet have not yet been popularized, let alone e-mail or something.

So invitations are issued via paper invitations.

In this invitation letter, Hayao Miyazaki wrote the whole process by hand, and sincerely hoped that Qing Zhiyuan could participate in the interview at Studio Ghibli next month, that is, on January 1993, 1.

【…

Although it is a bit presumptuous and brash, after all, this interview is about "Porco Rosso", and I don't know if President Qing has seen this movie.

It seems quite rude, as if this invitation letter has become a "urging".

Moreover, President Ao must be wondering whether Hayao Miyazaki is worth talking to because he has never even met him.

It doesn't matter if you don't watch "Porco Rosso".

It doesn't matter if we haven't met.

It is precisely because we have never met before that it is called an "invitation"

The reason why I invited President Qing is not to talk about "Porco Rosso" with you

On the contrary, after playing your company's "Your Name", I got a lot of inspiration, and I really want to have a long talk with you.

For games, for animation, for the relationship between the two and the future development, that is what I really want to discuss with you.

Sincerely invite.

Do think about it.

Studio Ghibli
Sincerely, Hayao Miyazaki. 】

After Qing Zhiyuan finished reading it, he was a little dazed and confused.

Although Hayao Miyazaki seemed to make sense in his letter, he still had a sense of unreality——

Why are you inviting me?

I am the president of a small company, and I am not famous at all.

He handed the letter to Akane Ayase, indicating that she could take a look.

"Wow!!!"

Before Qing Zhiyuan could speak, Akane Ayase shouted excitedly.

"President! This is Hayao Miyazaki."

"Can you take me with you?"

Qing Zhiyuan gave her a supercilious look.

"Please." Akane Ayase hurriedly folded her hands together, "I like Hayao Miyazaki's movies very much. I will pour tea for you and I will never disturb your conversation. Why don't you go to conduct such an important interview?" Consider bringing a secretary or something?"

Ha ha.

Qing Zhiyuan sneered twice.

Are you the secretary now?
"But? Why did you invite me?" Qing Zhiyuan felt very incredible.

In the previous life, Hayao Miyazaki accepted an interview after the release of "Porco Rosso", and invited a guest to the show in the form of a tea party.

Although this conversation was relaxed and freehand, everyone was basically talking about their own ideals, and it revolved around the red pig, but it was called a peak conversation.

Because sitting opposite Hayao Miyazaki is a great god-level figure in another field——

Shigeru Miyamoto.

The two were talking about the similarities and differences between games and animation.

During the conversation, the two mainly conducted in-depth exchanges on the creative concepts and techniques of games and animations.

Especially when Hayao Miyazaki relapsed and began to eloquently explain his understanding of the image of "landscape", even the editorial department couldn't bear it anymore, and had to say, "The content of the discussion is too grand and cutting-edge, and everyone gradually understands it." Confused, I dare not make a sound..." as the end.

The old man should be quite talkative, and he is always crooked.

but……

Maybe Qing Zhiyuan got along with him inexplicably, but that's not necessarily the case.

"Don't you know if you've been there?" Akane Ayase looked down at the invitation letter in her hand, "As mentioned above, I want to discuss the relationship between games and animation with you. President, didn't you come from an original painting background? Well, this is your strong point."

"Ok?"

……

It is definitely a must to go.

After all, the master personally invited him, but Qing Zhiyuan was not prepared at all in his heart.

The relationship between animation and games is too broad, and he himself doesn't know what to talk about.

Fortunately, it is still early, there is still a month to go.

Qing Zhiyuan asked Ayase Akane to record the time and arrange it in his itinerary for the next month.

"Good boss."

Akane Ayase, the secretary, should do her duty.

And this matter should be quite important. It is not easy to have a chance to talk to the master once in life, and Hayao Miyazaki personally invited him.

Until now, Akane Ayase didn't quite understand why.

That guy Hayao Miyazaki is only in his 50s and his brain is gone?

Even if Pokeni has made a few good games, Qing Zhiyuan is not well-known in the industry.

Games and animation are completely two fields. Even if it is an invitation, it should at least be Shigeru Miyamoto, right?

According to Akane Ayase's thinking, the basis for this kind of master dialogue must be that both parties are masters.

In the past, the president was not worthy of virtue at all, or Qing Zhiyuan was just a younger brother, so it was definitely not possible to talk about it, and it was just a lecture when he went there.

Uh-huh.

It must be like this.

Akane Ayase can almost imagine what the scene will be like, the president probably looks like a primary school student.

Qing Zhiyuan raised his head, only to see that the expression on the face of the guy in front of him was cloudy and uncertain, sometimes frowning and sometimes laughing.

I'm afraid she's going to become a sperm?
"By the way, by the way, I'll make arrangements for you too." Qing Zhiyuan said blankly.

"what?!"

Hearing these words, Akane Ayase laughed brightly like a treasure.

"Okay, President!"

……

It's still early, so let's put this matter on hold for the time being.

Qing Zhiyuan quickly returned to work.

Seeing that the new year is coming soon, the company members are immersed in the upsurge of game sales, and they have no mood to work these days.

"By the way, how many newcomers will our company have next year?" Qing Zhiyuan looked at Ayase Akane, suddenly remembered her HR status, and asked.

December is not only the harvest season for "Your Name", but also the most important part of pokeni's talent training system.

Basically, the default appointment will be issued during this time period, and students who have already received the pokeni appointment can report to the company after the graduation season in March next year.

We are about to enter the 21st century.

What is the most expensive thing in the 21st century?
Talent!

The development of any company depends on the young people in the future. If there are no talents, then the company has no future to speak of.

Qing Zhiyuan's biggest advantage over others is that he is familiar with the talents born in the future game field.

"Wait a minute."

Akane Ayase bowed slightly, then ran out, looked it up carefully, and returned to the president's office with a stack of documents.

"There are quite a lot of people reporting to our company this year." The little HR sat on the sofa, put the documents on his knees, and said proudly while flipping through them.

Her stack of documents was thick enough to be seen by the naked eye.

In addition to the resume information of the applicants, there are also some works attached by the guys.

In the past two years, the development of pokeni has been really rapid, faster than riding a rocket.

One game after another, like a bomb, directly blasted the entire game industry, shaking the earth and shaking the mountains.

But it was also under such circumstances that Akane Ayase became more and more happy and proud of her company.

"You must know that two years ago, college students had never heard of our company's name. It was really miserable at that time, and no one wanted to come to Pokeni."

Back then, Shirakawa Atsushi was always invited by President Ao himself, but others refused.

Qing Zhiyuan frowned twice.

I don't even know what this guy is proud of.

"Yeah, I never saw such a busy HR at that time." Qing Zhiyuan teased.

"President!"

The little HR pouted.

"Would you please respect my profession?"

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help laughing.

An HR like Akane Ayase is actually very professional. She can be used for fun and as a secretary. He thinks it is really worth it.

It is also a talent for the original owner before time travel to find such HR.

"There will be quite a lot of newcomers next year, offers have been issued, and 13 people have been appointed internally.

There are quite a few people who have come to the company for internship. "

Akane Ayase smiled and selected some resumes from a pile of materials and handed them to Qing Zhiyuan.

Qing Zhiyuan scanned it hastily, and found that the people on it didn't know each other very well.

"In short, you have all been interviewed, and I trust your judgment." Qing Zhiyuan put the documents on the table.

Now the company is really growing.

There is not even a day when I don't feel such a firm force, that kind of vigorous and explosive vitality, which is filling every corner of pokeni, and it is also filling everyone.

This is the greatest confidence that a successful work can bring to a company.

……

Akane Ayase explained to Qing Zhiyuan, he almost had a preliminary impression of these people.

"Yeah, pokeni is getting stronger and stronger." Qing Zhiyuan sighed with a smile, "We will strive to make two more games next year, and then become a company with 5 people within 300 years!"

Gee.

Akane Ayase smiled embarrassingly, this guy jumped into the sky just as he was getting better.

I also don't think that pokeni was once in bankruptcy crisis.

"President, have you forgotten someone?"

At this moment, the little HR reminded.

"Huh?" Qing Zhiyuan pondered for two seconds, then asked suspiciously, "Who is it?"

"Hey... I knew it."

Akane Ayase sighed, took out a file from the folder and put it on Qing Zhiyuan's desk.

Qing Zhiyuan glanced at it, and found that there was a photo of a skinny boy pasted on it, with three large characters [Ma Zhizhun] written on the upper left corner.

Ah!
Qing Zhiyuan suddenly realized.

How did I forget him?

"Did you forget?" Akane Ayase sighed and said, "At that time, you promised him at the player forum that he would come over after graduating from high school. Although I know you said it casually, this kid seems to be serious. It's over."

Qing Zhiyuan opened his mouth and was about to speak.

Akane Ayase said first, "But this guy's interview is not ideal, are you sure you want him?"

"If you don't want to use Ma Zhizhun, I'll just find a reason to send him away."

"Of course I'm serious!" Qing Zhiyuan quickly pressed Ma Zhizhun's resume, "This guy must be brought in."

"Huh?!" Akane Ayase looked at him like she was an idiot.

Is the president actually a man of his word? !
……

Ma Zhizhun is known as the tearjerker in the galgame field.

Yes, it is the title given to [Guyuan Chunqiu] by the players now.

There is definitely nothing to say about the strength.

And this guy's ability is really strong, not only can write the script of a masterpiece, but also is very good in the field of original painting and music.

For example, AIR's opening song "Bird Poem" in "AIR" was written by Ma Zhizhun himself, and KANON's "Trace of Dreams" was composed by himself.

It is quite a versatile talent.

Qing Zhiyuan had no reason to reject him.

Back then, it was because this guy was still young and did not meet the company's employment standards. Now that he has graduated from high school, he can come to Pokeni to work.

But after Ma Zhizhun came over, he must have to practice for a while, just like Shinji Mikami, it is impossible to be a producer right away.

In fact, Qing Zhiyuan is not sure how Ma Zhizhun, who has not gone to university in Tokyo, can have the level of his previous life.

Talent is like a flower, it takes time to cultivate.

But since he is Ma Zhizhun, Qing Zhiyuan thinks that the problem is not big. At the age of 18, his personality and brain circuits have basically stabilized.

Kanon?
Or AIR?

Qing Zhiyuan expressed great expectations for Ma Zhizhun's first work in the future.

Among the tearjerker trilogy, the peak must be Clannad, but based on his accurate judgment of Ma Zhi, this guy may not be able to write it yet.

After Ma Zhizhun came, he must be appointed as the script planner first, but in this way, Ma Zhizhun's positioning was a bit duplicated with Urobuchi Gen, and the two of them could only be dispersed in different project teams.

Then it is inevitable that a producer of the project team will be needed to control it.

what……

There is no producer anymore.

Qing Zhiyuan felt heartbroken for a while.

The producer is really crucial, which is equivalent to the soul of the game, and the analogy is the general director of the movie.

There are many such talents in Neon, but they are also very scarce, because the training cycle of producers is very long, and the loyalty is generally relatively high, it is difficult to recruit Qing Zhiyuan, a producer trained by other companies.

So the best way is to dig and cultivate within yourself.

So far, after two years, Shinji Mikami has only a little look.

Where can I get another one?

……

But in the process of chatting with Akane Ayase just now, he thought of someone.

"Si sauce."

"Huh?" Akane Ayase raised her head.

"Help me go to Shizuoka County to find someone. This guy should have graduated."

"Who is it?" Akane Akane asked suspiciously.

"Hidetaka Miyazaki."
