"It's just a letter from a fan, a fan who is very important to me. No, that can't be said, every fan is important to me." Miyamoto shook his head: "It's just that this fan encountered some problems, and I can't do anything about it, which makes me a little unhappy."

Without saying exactly what was going on, Miyamoto said vaguely, "Besides, he also expressed in the letter that he would continue to support me, which made me more determined in my inner thoughts. So don't worry about me, I am very strong in my heart!"

Miyamoto Se said this and seeing that the two still seemed a little unconvinced, he added another sentence.

“Even if I was suddenly thrown into another world and told that I had traveled through time, I wouldn’t be too surprised. Really, my heart is so strong!”

"This metaphor... It's impossible to say that you are thrown into another world. This is not a novel." Komatsu Mika complained: "But you actually said that, so let's get ready. Mr. Hasegawa came over just now and asked the three of us to go to Mr. Amagai's office."

When Miyamoto Se heard this, he immediately focused his attention: "This side or that side?"

"That's it, so we have to take the train." Komatsu Mika said, "Pack up and then go."

"Yeah." Miyamoto Se nodded, walked to the side and started packing his things. Nagaan Miyu and Komatsu Mika had obviously already packed their things and were waiting for him.

"Actually, you two could have called me just now."

"If you were a few minutes later I would have called you, but I thought you needed some time alone, so I waited for a while." Komatsu Mika said, "After all, I am also a good person."

"Ha, yeah, that's right, you're quite good at being a human being." Miyamoto said, putting away his things, and then stood up: "Let's go, I bet it has something to do with the anime!"

At this moment, he didn't look sad at all, because there was no need to show it.

Chapter 42 It's Worth It

Miyamoto Se looked at the manuscript in his hand, and he believed that his expression at this moment must be very wonderful.

Because his heart at this moment was like a sea with huge waves after a storm.

For a moment, he wanted to throw the manuscript directly in Tian Beilisa's face, but he couldn't do that because there were not only him and Tian Beilisa in this place, but also other people.

Miyu Nagaan and Mika Komatsu are here.

Shinichiro Watanabe and Mai Yoneyama are also here.

"How about the script? You can tell me your feelings. Although I wrote the script, this animation series is your work after all. In this regard, I still need to hear your opinions." Watanabe Shinichiro said to Miyamoto Sei and others.

"Excuse me, can I ask why the character Minori Kamagawa, voiced by me, also has a male identity called Minoru Urayama? Isn't it a bit too exaggerated for a man to dress up as a woman and join a girl group without being discovered?"

Miyamoto Sei tried hard to make himself look like an ordinary person who seemed a little confused, and expressed his doubts about the plot arrangement.

"This can increase the dramatic tension, and viewers will involuntarily wait for the moment when the protagonist's true identity is revealed. Although this idea was proposed by Mr. Amagai, I think it is a very good idea, so I accepted it." Watanabe Shinichiro said: "And the number of episodes we planned is 24, which is enough to tell the story."

Miyamoto was stunned for a moment, then quickly flipped through the manuscript at hand and found that the series was not 14 episodes as he had originally thought, but 24 episodes.

He looked at Amagi Risa in surprise, only to find that she just said casually: "I think it is necessary to tell a good story, and a good story must have foreshadowing, so I simply increased the number of episodes to 24. As for the investment, it has also been increased from the original 3.5 million yen to 6 million. You don't have to worry about the picture shrinking."

The fact that it went directly from a seasonal series to a half-year series was something that Miyamoto had never expected, and it was obvious that this change was made very early, otherwise Watanabe Shinichiro would not have written such a long content.

Miyamoto Sei thought carefully about Watanabe Shinichiro's words, and he had to admit that what the other party said made sense. If the protagonist was a male, but pretended to be a female to become a girl group idol, it would indeed arouse doubts in the hearts of people watching the animation, wondering when the protagonist would expose himself.

This doubt can, to a large extent, attract the audience to watch the entire 24 episodes of the anime.

From the plot, the protagonist enters the idol industry for the sake of his beloved, but finally begins to truly move forward for the identity of an idol, which also well reflects the growth of the protagonist himself.

No, this should be called one of the protagonists, because the other two are obviously also protagonists. This is a story with three protagonists.

Judging from the content of this manuscript alone, Miyamoto Se has to admit that the story is well written and the plot is full of ups and downs.

Moreover, the choice of 24 episodes is also very good. It is not too long, nor too short, just enough to tell a story from beginning to end, without having to dilute it.

But correspondingly, as a result, a lot of the daily plot content in idol anime was cut, and the main storyline was focused.

"After all, this is an idol show that incorporates a lot of real situations. It is a little different from the usual idol shows. A lot of inspiration here comes from the usual training and daily life of the actors. I have to say that you really have to get in touch with an industry before you can understand it better."

Watanabe Shinichiro said with a smile.

"Well, please tell me what you think, and I will make appropriate changes based on the situation."

Miyamoto Sei has read a lot of novels, not only various popular literature, but also the online novels with hundreds of millions of words that he read in his previous life. After quickly finishing the entire manuscript, he started reading it again from the beginning.

"I have no opinion. You write very well, Mr. Watanabe." Mika Komatsu said from the side.

"I have no objection. I think you wrote an excellent story." Yongan Meixi also said.

Now, only Miyamoto Sei is still looking at the manuscript.

"I have to say this is a good story, and the overall rhythm of the plot is also excellent." Finally, Miyamoto Se also spoke, frowning slightly. Now he is looking at the manuscript from a professional perspective: "But I think the character of the protagonist could be a little more extreme."

"Is his personality more extreme?"

"Well, extreme personalities can lead to greater conflicts, not just for the protagonists, but also for the villains who will cause conflicts. They can be more extreme and the conflicts they cause can be greater, just like the protagonist's motivation..."

Miyamotose pointed to the beginning.

"The protagonist disguised himself as a woman to help the girl he liked who was joining a girl group in order to support her. In this respect, his behavior can be called extreme.

"And I think this kind of extreme can be shown in the future. However, in this case, this kind of extreme love for the heroine, transformed into the emotion of wanting to truly become an idol, will require a more powerful force..."

"I understand what you mean. The emotions at the beginning are extreme, but the later part seems dull. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes, that's what I mean. Each of the three protagonists is extreme, and this kind of transformation is crucial. One or two stimulations may not necessarily make them change their minds, but..." Miyamoto was silent for a moment: "What if the weight of life is added to this?"

When he said this, his voice was very low. He took a deep breath and said again: "Fans can change their idols. There are many fans who support him, and some even think about him until the last moment of their lives. Maybe the last barrier in their hearts will be broken..."

"For example, join a child who is suffering from terminal cancer, but because he sees a figure working hard on the stage, he becomes happy to live and stays happy until he dies?"

The one who said this was Tenbelisha.

Miyamoto looked at Tenbe Lisa. She just looked at Miyamoto without smiling. Miyamoto was silent for a moment before whispering, "Can you tell me the number?"

The depressing atmosphere made several people in the room notice something was wrong.

Nagaan Miyu and Komatsu Mika looked at Miyamoto Se with worried expressions.

At this moment, the two finally understood why Miyamoto Seo had that expression after reading the letter. What Amarisa said at this moment was the answer.

"No, Mrs. Nakamura won't let me tell you. She doesn't want you to attend her child's funeral like this, because if it gets out, it might have a bad impact on your idol career. For example, everyone will want to tell you about their troubles."

Tian Bei Lisa said slowly.

"This is not only her idea, but also her child's idea, so the child did not ask you to attend his funeral in the letter, nor did he tell you any information about his address.

"Although my meeting her was an accident, she still hopes that I can convey a message to you. She will support you. Although she probably won't come to the theater to see your expression, she will cheer for you."

Exhaling slowly, Miyamoto Se closed the manuscript.

"That's all I wanted to say, Mr. Watanabe. I'll leave the rest to you."

The smile on Watanabe Shinichiro's face was gone at this moment. How could he not know what those words just said meant?

"Don't worry, I will make appropriate changes. This is indeed a good story, and the inner changes of the protagonist do require a strong dose of medicine."

After the discussion with Watanabe Shinichiro, the next thing to consider was Mai Yoneyama's affairs.

Mai Yoneyama took out the character design she had designed.

Mai Yoneyama's painting skills are perfect, and her character design is also extremely beautiful. Her slender body looks very sexy.

The character played by Miyamoto Sei has two different personalities, one looks like a man and the other looks like a woman.

The male looks feminine, with some feminine colors, but generally speaking he is a man. As for the design of the female character, apart from the face shape that shows that she is the protagonist, there is really no way to tell from other places.

This is a handsome girl.

Although the face shape is the same, Mai Yoneyama uses special techniques to create a completely different feeling. Coupled with the long false eyelashes that women use, the female appearance of the protagonist naturally fits the setting of her female gender.

After just one look, Miyamoto Se was impressed by Mai Yoneyama's strength. She is truly a god!

The character played by Mika Komatsu is from the United States. She is a beautiful girl with golden twin tails who is a genius in dancing and singing.

As for the character of Miyu Nagaan, she was in the same school as Miyamoto Se's character, and was the culprit who led to Miyamoto Se eventually joining the girl group.

Yongan Meixi looked at Miyamoto Se and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Miyamoto Sei was looking at the character design picture without any reaction. He was still thinking about the plot.

It can be said that the three characters have sufficient roles, and the 24-episode plot is enough to shape all three of them. After all, Shinichiro Watanabe hardly wrote any nonsense, and most of the 24 episodes are spent on shaping the characters and following the main storyline.

Therefore, even without any modification, the manuscript looks great now. If it is modified again and the conflict becomes more intense, Miyamoto is sure that the story will become more attractive.

As the three left, the only people left in the house were Shinichiro Watanabe, Mai Yoneyama and Lisa Ameyama.

"I didn't expect that Miss Miyamoto had studied writing scripts and novels. Most people can't summarize what she said." Watanabe Shinichiro said: "What she just said is actually quite professional."

Tian Beilisha also seemed a little surprised: "Well, she can always give people some surprises, such as today's ones."

"But isn't this plot a bit too emotionally depressing?" Mai Yoneyama asked, "For those who watch anime nowadays, the so-called sweetness is too low."

"No, it's actually very sweet, isn't it?" Watanabe Shinichiro shook his head: "I joined the girl group because of love, and I couldn't express my feelings because of love. Even though I knew that I would never have more contact with her after she became an idol, I still chose to help her join the girl group without hesitation."

Tian Beilisha also continued at this time.

"Although I became a member of a girl group by chance, I kept my bottom line, not only for the one I love, but also for the fans who support me. In the end, after realizing that the other party's ideal is to become a real idol, I decided to bury this relationship forever. Isn't this very touching in itself?"

Mai Yoneyama was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Then, as the protagonist, Minoru Urayama, finally transformed herself into Minori Urayama and became a true idol. Because of this feeling, it eventually overwhelmed love, right?"

"In fact, I think it is better to say that it is the catalyst of love, coupled with various opportunities such as fans, that led to the final emotional change of the protagonist. However, if I want to express this point, I really need to modify the content."

Watanabe Shinichiro said, quickly writing down a few key points he had just thought of in his notebook.

Mai Yoneyama smiled bitterly.

"So with all the romance stories being the norm, we wanted to create a story where all the main characters are career-minded."

"Emotions are hidden in the heart and don't need to be expressed directly. They will always be reflected in some details of daily life. Believe in the audience, they will find the sweetness in the details themselves."

Watanabe Shinichiro said with a smile.

Mai Yoneyama immediately complained.

"Is it like in Cowboy Bebop? So many people are looking for Spike and Faye's emotional interaction, but there are also a lot of people saying things like 'they're just companions.'"

"Although I have said that there is indeed love between them, how to think and understand it is still up to the audience. After all, I did not write it out directly. But for this story, some things need to be written out explicitly. Give me a few days and I will make some changes."

Watanabe Shinichiro said this and picked up the manuscript.

"Wait a few days, and then I'll have to trouble you two again, or call on the three of them, after all, we need to carefully compare several versions."

When he stood up and prepared to leave, Watanabe Shinichiro suddenly asked, "Teacher Amagai, you value them so much after paying hundreds of millions?"

"I think they are worth it. Don't you think so, Mr. Watanabe?"

Watanabe Shinichiro smiled.

“I feel more and more that it is worth it.”

Chapter 43: All losers

6 month 15 day.

For a group of people who have been following various idol information online, today is a day worth being happy about.

Just this Thursday, a movie called "The Last of the Samurai" was released.

It is said that the filming had been completed a long time ago. One of the main reasons for the delay was that there were some different opinions about the subsequent editing of the film.

"Because you had a conflict with Aoki Sasaki and refused to act, a scene that originally belonged to you was replaced by someone else. This scene is the most powerful scene in the entire drama." The man crossed his legs and slammed the folder in his hand directly on the table.

The young woman with blond hair said casually while fixing her makeup: "It's great, but there's nothing attractive about this movie anyway, right?"

"If you can't stand out, this investment will be a failure. If you listen to me and reshoot this scene, it will match their shocked expressions and make you more famous, right?" The man said, his tone slightly more serious: "This is a big investment."

"Isn't that my dad's money? Besides, I don't like this guy Zuo Muqing. This time I just gave it a try. Is it okay for me to say that my acting skills were the best among the actors at that time?"

The woman painted the last nail and put it in the dryer to dry the nail polish. The assistant next to her held the ice cream in her hand and scooped out a spoonful of it and put it into the woman's mouth.

The man could only sigh when he heard this. The woman's father was the financial backer. The man behind the company was the woman's father, so what the other party said was right. This was indeed just a small gift from her father to his daughter.

An investment of just tens of millions of yen is really nothing.

And based on his understanding of this father who loves his daughter, he would end this behavior of backing out halfway by saying, "It's okay if my dear daughter doesn't like it. Dad will make an independent personal movie for you later!"

Noguri Kaori's father, Noguri Yuichiro, would definitely do such a thing.

After all, the other party is an old family that has been deeply involved in politics for hundreds of years.

A lot of money indeed.

The man suddenly felt that Noli Xiangzi actually had a pretty good temper. During this conflict, she simply chose to leave instead of trying to discredit the other party.

Thinking of this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. At least with this person, he could save himself a lot of trouble.
