No matter what you do, it must be done on a first-come, first-served basis.

but......

In this awkward atmosphere, waiting here, I always feel like Liang is watching me all the time.

"Um, Mr. Sawano, is the general supervisor here today?"

"Huh? The Governor has been in a restless state recently. What's wrong?"

"I have something I want to ask the governor about." Kotobuki Hikaru found a reason to escape from here temporarily. "Then I'll come over later!"

Before Sawano could agree, Kotobuki turned around and ran away.

"Today's young people are too strange..."

Sawano murmured in a low voice and glanced at Yamada Ryo.

......

...

The general supervisor has a separate office, and it looks very impressive.

However, fortunately it was a separate office. If, like Sawano, who was the music supervisor, there were many other people in the general supervisor's office, it would be really difficult for him to ask what he wanted to ask next.

If he has something to do with the General Supervisor, this is not just a reason for him to escape from an embarrassing atmosphere.

Although it was just a small episode, he has not forgotten the agreement he made with a certain passerby.

Um......

In fact, I still forgot about it yesterday.

It wasn't until Kazuri Goto discovered a certain drawing book hidden in his bag that he thought about it.

dong dong dong-

Kotobuki Kou gently knocked on the office door.

"Please come in."

When Qin Chuiguang pushed open the door and entered, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in the office.

He was frowning and staring at the computer screen. When he caught a glimpse of Kotobuki Hikaru coming in, he immediately changed his expression to another one.

"Ah...it's Kotobuki-kun."

This was obviously just the first real official meeting between Kotobuki Mitsuru and the general supervisor, but the smile on the other person's face and the cordial tone made it seem like the two had known each other for a long time.

"Do you have any work matters coming to my place?"

Logically speaking, if Kotobuki Hikaru has any problems at work, he should raise them to Sawano, the head of the music department. Even if it really cannot be solved, Sawano, as the supervisor, should respond to him.

Therefore, when Kotobuki came to see him, it was definitely not about work.

He asked this on purpose.

"Ah...it's not about work, but I have some personal questions that I want to ask."

"Please sit down first."

The other party's enthusiasm made Kotobuki Mitsuru a little overwhelmed.

Obviously I am just an outsourcer with the least presence in terms of hierarchy. Is it worthy of being treated like this by the general supervisor?

Mingming came to the animation company before, and when I saw him... the general supervisor usually had a serious expression, and he was always very stern when talking to other staff.

As for the general supervisor, the arrival of Kotobuki Hikaru forced him to take it seriously.

As an animation company, generally speaking, it exists as Party A, and outsourcers like Kotobuki Mitsuru are Party B who should be obedient.

As Party A, there is only one kind of person that cannot be offended...

Investors.

The ending band was a band named by investors and asked to be included. Even if it was just perfunctory, it couldn't make them too unhappy.

The general supervisor got up from his workstation and walked to the sofa not far away.

Kotobuki Hikaru followed suit and sat on the soft sofa.

The general supervisor picked up the teapot on the coffee table, placed two teacups, and poured two cups of tea.

clap clap...  

Kotobuki Mitsuru understood that the general supervisor poured tea just to wait for Kotobuki Mitsuru to speak.

"I have something here that I would like the General Supervisor to take a look at."

As he spoke, Kotobuki Hikaru opened the handbag on the side.

Then a sketchbook was taken out and placed on the table.

"This is...?"

The general supervisor picked it up curiously and opened the title page of the album.

"Well...?!"

The man showed a strange expression, and what he saw in front of him was quite impressive for a man in his 40s.

Then, he looked at Kotobuki with an extremely weird expression.

But after all, Kotobuki Hikaru asked him to read it... He continued to turn a few pages until he finished the original album.

By the time I finished reading, a long time had passed.

"General Supervisor, what do you think?" Kotobuki asked.

"Kotobuki-kun... I don't have time to read the R18 picture book you recommended to me and give me my thoughts after reading it."

"Ah?" Kotobuki was stunned for a moment. "I'm asking how you like this picture book? What about the artistry and so on..."

"As for the painter, although overall he is a bit immature, he is indeed very good. Whether it is composition, lines, or coloring, he is very precise."

After all, he is a practitioner who has been in the animation industry for many years, and the general supervisor still gave pertinent opinions.

"And the painting style is also very unique. In this regard, the author should be a guy with good skills."

However, what surprised him was that the painting style in the picture album in front of him felt a little strange to him.

At least among the painters I have an impression on, I have never seen such a style of painting.

"In other words, in the opinion of the general supervisor, the artist and painter of this picture album is still qualified."

"It can be considered excellent..."

"Eh..."

Kotobuki Hikaru was also a little surprised. Even the general supervisor of Takeda's paintings gave approval.

"So, General Supervisor, is your company still short of people in the production team?"

"Lack of people?"

The next moment, the general supervisor understood what Kotobuki Hikaru meant.

Co-authoring this is to recommend talents to yourself?

“Our production team is already full of people, both original painters and animators.”

"Not a formal employee, but a position like an intern..."

"intern?"

Facing the confused expression of the general supervisor, Kotobuki Mitsuru continued to explain.

"Actually... this picture album was drawn by a classmate of mine. He has a dream of becoming an original animator in an animation company."

"Same...classmate?"

The man showed a surprised expression, and then carefully looked through the picture album in his hand.

indeed......

Every time you turn a page, you can see that the new painting is a bit more mature than the previous one.

At the end of the album, there are excellent works with almost no shortcomings.

"Is this the work of a high school student?"

"Yes, my classmate."

"...To be honest, with such skills, being an intern is a bit humiliating."

"Eh...Isn't it still possible?"

Kotobuki Mitsuru touched his head in embarrassment.

To put it bluntly, I am just an outsider, so it is still difficult to convince the other party easily.

"However, a production team I know is currently short of original animators. If you are a friend of Kotobuki-kun, I can ask."

friend?

Kotobuki Hikari was stunned for a moment.

Can Takeda be called his friend... It's just that he just knew the other person's name.

But Kotobuki Mitsuru didn't say this in front of the general supervisor.

"However, there is something special about that production team..."

"Eh? Why is it special?" Kotobuki Hikaru asked.

"Their production team produced... well, it's the kind of animation that can't be broadcast on TV."

"Can't it be shown on TV? Why?"

Kotobuki Hikaru, who didn't understand this industry, asked in confusion.

The general supervisor even looked at Kotobuki Mitsuru with confusion.

This kid really doesn't understand anything.

"Ahem...it's the production team called Riban."

"Lifan?"

This vocabulary is somewhat new to Kotobuki Hikari.

"It's... the animation of R18."

"?!"

Kotobuki Mitsuru was shocked.

Weird...so weird...

No matter what, it would be too strange to let a high school student who is not yet a high school student join the animation production team of R18...

"However, in my opinion, your friend can probably use his talents better in such a production team."

"..."

Kotobuki Mitsuru just pondered for a moment.

He also fully agreed with the general supervisor’s view.

"Then I'll trouble you, General Superintendent. Thank you very much."

......

...

When Kotobuki Mitsuru walked out of the general supervisor's office, he let out a long sigh.

If you ask others for such a thing, you are definitely already in debt.

Owing a favor is even more uncomfortable than owing someone money...

After walking out of the office, Kotobuki Hikaru saw Yamada Ryo at the door of the animation company.

Yamada Ryo leaned against the wall in boredom, looking down at his phone, as if waiting for him.

And when she heard the sound of the door opening, she raised her eyes and saw Kotobuki Hikaru, raised her hand and waved in his direction.

Because the office staff were busy, she didn't say anything.
