We’ve traveled through Tokyo, who still wants to simulate love?

When Asaba Kazama had finished his meal and sent Editor Tamura to the car at the entrance of the izakaya, he suddenly felt a red light flashing in front of him.

When he came back to his senses, he saw that the light from the door of the izakaya was shining on Daisuke Hiramaki's bare forehead, and the light was reflected.

He was stunned for a moment, looking at the supervisor who had been standing outside for who knows how long with a confused look on his face. He hesitated and said:

"Does Supervisor Pingmu have something to do with me?"

Just as Daisuke Hiramaki was about to speak, his stomach let out an unsatisfactory groan.

The two looked at each other.

…

10 minutes later.

Daisuke Hiramaki finished the udon noodles in front of him like a storm, put down his chopsticks and said "I'm full", and then turned his attention to Asaba Kazama.

"Teacher Qian Yu is a sophomore this year."

"Well, what's wrong?"

"No, I just feel that life is scary."

Daisuke Hiramaki straightened his posture and said seriously: "Teacher Asaba, have you ever thought that your work will be put on the big screen and become a scene of a popular animation?"

Qian Yu Kazama chuckled lightly and said, "What, the animation studio is interested?"

Daisuke Hiramaki nodded and said: "The animation studio's production capabilities are obvious to all in the industry. I have learned about Mr. Asaba's works and they are in line with our expectations for light adaptation comics.

So I came here this time hoping to work together and use animation to show the charm of Mr. Asaba’s novels. "

Bullshit.

Asaha Kazama directly came to this conclusion.

There should be many companies waiting and watching now.

The animation studio is now in a precarious situation, and the company still has such a large group of people to support. However, the previous animation production was not profitable, which has shaken the capital chain of the construction. If you are not careful, make another mistake, and it is possible to disband on the spot.

Those who started the construction now urgently need a good work to put out the fire.

But good works... Popular comics are basically in the pockets of those big companies. For medium-level and excellent works, the licensing fee is also a huge burden for the start-up.

That’s why Daisuke Hiramaki and the others turned their attention to light novels.

Asaba Kazama suspected that in the simulation, it was not that Gogo chose his own work, but that Gogo had no choice at all.

If you can't take the grand road to fight your way out, then choose to take the extreme path. Survival is the success.

The protagonist of "The Reincarnation of a Succubus" is a male succubus. The novel itself is on an evil path, and a company is set up that also wants to be on the evil path. It's really like a pair of dragons and phoenixes, but a subtle chemical reaction occurred.

However, Asaba Kazama wanted Heimaki Daisuke to say sorry.

"I refuse." He said calmly, "I am responsible for my works and my readers."

Daisuke Hiramaki didn't expect him to refuse so simply, but he still persisted and said:

"Teacher Qianyu, we started construction with sincerity. The current employment environment is not good, and it is not easy to have a company where you can feel comfortable working. People in the company are also willing to do their best. This is a once-in-a-lifetime moment. We are betting on the future. The products we make will never be bad.”

"He can praise the company's poor operating conditions to the heavens. Supervisor Ping Mu is actually suitable for sales."

Qianyu Kazama's words made him blush.

In Japan, the industry chain for both lightly adapted manga and anime is quite sophisticated.

A skilled industrial chain gives terminal creators more say. Although there are special cases like "White Bear Cafe" where animations are broadcast and only known to the author, this cannot be said to be a common situation.

On the extreme side, like "High School", the reason why it has not been animated is because Mr. Takahashi believed that animation would ruin his manga.

"Director Hiramaki, I'm not that easy to convince. I still have some confidence in my work. When the work becomes popular, I can change it into a manga, and I will get more [original royalties]." Some. No one will complain about earning less."

Daisuke Hiramaki's mouth opened slightly.

What about the high school students you promised? How come Teacher Qianyu even knows the inside story of [Original Work Royalty Fee] so clearly.

Isn’t it said that college students nowadays always have a clear sense of stupidity that says, “You’re so weird?”

Asa Yu Kazama laughed inwardly.

He really didn't know the inside story of this business, but Editor Tamura did.

Do you really think that he was just chatting with his editor in the izakaya just for a meal?

Of course, he didn't really want to refuse.

"Teacher Asaba, if you can agree, we will definitely treat your work well. When the work comes out and the company's situation recovers, we will also give you a big gift alone." Daisuke Hiramaki said again.

Asaha Kazama still shook his head, took a sip of buckwheat tea, and sighed:

"This is my first novel, and I am half a child... I have to pay more."

Daisuke Hiramaki knew that it was impossible to add more money. If he added more money, it would not even be enough to start the animation, let alone turn it over.

He thought for a moment, then called the president and explained the situation.

After a while, he put down the phone, took a breath and said:

"Teacher Qian Yu, we can't give you a high [original work royalty], but the president agrees to draw up a contract, and the operating royalty that meets your expectations will be treated as project investment, and the excess will be incorporated into the animation, and dividends will be shared , do you think this is okay?”

Qian Yufengjian raised his eyebrows. If you win, everyone will make money together. If you lose everything, everyone will die together?

"Not enough." Asaha Kazama still refused, "I know the content of my novel. Without enough investment, the possibility of you making a satisfactory work is zero."

Daisuke Hiramaki looked grave: "Teacher Asaha, we will show you the true nature of a workman who goes all out!"

Why did it start to ignite just as I was talking?

Qianyu Kazama looked confused.

Oh, a native of Japan, that’s no problem.

"I refuse." Asaba Kazama agreed with the sincerity of starting construction, but still refused.

He looked at Daisuke Hiramaki calmly and said: "If you expect me to personally participate in it and help with the original painting, don't think too much. I am very busy, and you can't afford me the price to start the construction.

The protagonist of "Reincarnated Succubus" is a male succubus. I want to use a paintbrush to show his charm. This is not something ordinary original painters can do. I don't have that much time, or in other words, you can't afford it when starting the project. "

Cunning master, you still want to keep something secret?

No matter how much the dividends from the royalties of the original work are, how much more can we get?

Asaba Kazama was certain that Daisuke Hiramaki didn't even look at his own work.

The purpose of this supervisor has always been clear, to recruit himself into the team and support the original animator.

If you want him to join, you have to pay enough money.

"Director Hiramaki, come up with your final terms and come to me alone. If you can't deal with my side, after tonight, Dengeki Bunko and JUMP will know about it. It's useless for you to try to defeat them one by one. ”

Daisuke Hiramaki shook his head bitterly: "I really can't hide anything from you, Teacher Qianyu. We have reached the point where we have no dignity at all. We have completely failed."

Asaba Kazama smiled and said: "We don't have much money left to start the construction. You can't afford my expenses. You probably want to invite me to be the script and painting supervisor. The related expenses for this part will be converted into this investment. You don't have to Can."

Daisuke Hiramaki was dumbfounded.

It's crazy! He originally just wanted to pay Asaba Kazama to direct the original painting, and forget about the script. Why was he even given the painting supervision?

But...he doesn't ask for money directly.

Daisuke Hiramaki gritted his teeth and whispered:

"The president wants to make a big bet. He will directly buy the animation adaptation rights and become the first member of the production committee. If he wins, we will directly come back to life and supervise the animation. I want to ask about this."

In short, become the first investor in this anime.

"You are really crazy... you will run out of ammunition and food this way." Qianyu Kazama shook his head and sighed, but a cheeky smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "In this case, tell your president, don't give me the original work The royalties are all converted into investments and included in the production. Since you want to bet, I will bet with you."

Daisuke Hiramaki's expression was solemn: "I need to communicate with the president."

After a moment, he put down the phone: "The president agreed."

"Okay, Supervisor Ping Mu, we will be colleagues from now on."

The most troublesome one is done, and the rest is just some tricks from Dengeki Bunko and JUMP.

…

After the two said goodbye, Supervisor Hiramaki immediately called the president.

"Well, yes, that's it. President, Mr. Qianba has agreed. The next step is Dengeki Bunko and JUMP. I'm afraid I need your support.

ah? Does the original artist think it is too hasty to directly decide on the painting director? Huh, stupid, wait until Mr. Qianyu goes to the company, then let them open their eyes! "
