Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 261 Selection of Land (8000 words)
The three girls who bumped into Higashinoji were obviously panicked, especially Konoe Lianghua, she had no idea that Higashinoji would leave work early today, she was completely caught off guard, so she covered her face with her hands, trying to numb herself, I feel that Higashino Division probably doesn't know himself in this way.

Then her hand was taken by Dong Yesi: "What are you doing? Lianghua?"

Seeing that the surprise battle failed, Takahashi Yumi did not hesitate, and directly chose to be a second-five boy: "I know! Teacher Higashino! I found Lianghua and Aoi's whereabouts strange recently, so I followed them all the way, and finally found them The two stopped at the bottom of Dongye Studio, and the rest has nothing to do with me!"

Takahashi Yumi shook the pot cleanly, and Fujiwara Aoi on the other side gave her a hard look—it was obviously Konoe Lianghua who came to look for Higashinoji, and she and Takahashi Yumi were in the same group. This guy slandered himself too.

For this 'good' girlfriend, she was indeed too angry to speak.You can only open your mouth and finally close it.

On the other hand, Konoe Lianghua was sandwiched between two people, looking around shyly, with a feeling of "As long as I don't look at Asi, Asi can't see me".

To this, Higashinoji just stretched out his hands, pinched the soft flesh on both sides of her cheeks, and then pulled away——

"It hurts, it hurts so much, Asi," Konoe Lianghua turned his head and said inarticulately.

"What are you guys doing here?" Higashinosi was a little dumbfounded, let go of his hands, looked at Konoe Lianghua whose cheeks were pinched red and her two buddies, and asked simply.

"I came to visit Asi."

Konoe Lianghua was the first to confess, and she simply gave up resisting.

When Takahashi Yumi and Fujiwara Aoi saw this, they could only tell the reason of the matter-they were from Ogyu Konoe Suzuka.

This made Dong Yesi, who thought they were here to visit him, couldn't help but shook his head with a smile. These little girls are really.
"How's it going? You're here, do you want to go up and visit?" Dong Yesi pointed to the upstairs, and asked if they wanted to go to Dong Ye's studio to have a look.

After hearing this sentence, Takahashi Yumi expressed a strong desire to visit. Compared with Konoe Suzuka and Fujiwara Aoi, she is a real manga fan. Now she has the opportunity to visit the animation production process. Of course, she is very grateful interest.

However, Higashino's next sentence dispelled her thoughts: "The production of "The Winner Is Justice" is basically completed, and there is currently no one in the Higashino studio. If you don't want to visit, we can just leave like this."

Having said this, Takahashi Yumi naturally put away her thoughts about visiting.

Without original painters, special effects artists, and sound effects artists, Higashino Studio is just a room with computers and drawing tools. There is no need to visit it at all.
"Let's wait for someone to visit next time, so we won't disturb Mr. Dongye?"

Takahashi Yumi murmured and said something.

"No." Higashino replied with a smile: "The atmosphere at the actual production site is very tense. They are too busy to take care of themselves, so they don't have time to care about you. If you want to come, then call me and let me know."

After he made such a promise, he took a few girls downstairs and planned to go home just like that.

It's just that Dong Yesi didn't expect that the scene of him walking out with three high school girls was seen by Qianxia Yamagami.

To be honest, Qianxia on the mountain was stunned.

It turns out that Mr. Higashino likes high school students, no, no, Mr. Higashino is originally a high school student age, so it's normal to like high school students. The most important thing is why there are three?
You must know that Riko Hasegawa was also interested in Teacher Higashino before. Teacher Higashino is too affectionate, right?

Others only have one seed in their hands, so why does Higashino have a basket?
She shook her head hastily, trying to get the matter out of her mind.

I am equivalent to someone who knows the secret of Higashino Division, and in many comics, the person who exposes the secret of the boss will not end particularly well.

She decided to play dumb - she didn't see anything.

Qianxia on the mountain just hypnotized herself like this, watching them leave.

the other side.

"Mr. Higashino, I watched the 3-minute film you uploaded. Did it have that quality when it was released?" Yumi Takahashi asked curiously.

"It's just a short section randomly cut out from the finished product." Higashinoji replied.

"Really? Isn't this an invincible hand?"

Takahashi Yumi was a little excited.

The quality is too high.

After hearing these words, Konoe Suzuka and Fujiwara Aoi subconsciously wanted Takahashi Yumi to be more humble, but before they could speak, Higashinoji replied with a smile: "Yeah, I think so too, you are invincible all over the world. "

After saying this, the two of them were speechless in an instant.
Dong Yesi really deserves to be Dong Yesi, which is too confident.

but
"Asi, according to what you said, the production of "Victor Is Justice" has already been completed, so why are you so busy so late?" Konoe Lianghua asked in a low voice.

She really didn't quite understand it.

"It doesn't mean that the work is over when the production is completed. We have to hand over the original film to the TV station, and besides that, there are other miscellaneous tasks such as re-production of Blu-ray discs." Higashino replied with a smile .

Then he explained the production of Blu-ray discs to Konoe Lianghua and the others.

The re-production of Blu-ray discs is something that every animation production company will do, and the sales of Blu-ray discs can explain the achievements of this animation from a certain angle.

There are about one or two episodes of animation storage in one volume (that is, one CD), and the market price is about [-] yen. If there are bundled key chains or peripherals such as posters, the price can even reach more than [-] yen.

Can you believe it?An animation disc can be sold at such a high price in Japan - even at the Japanese consumption level, a disc at the market price of [-] yen is still very expensive.

In other words, Blu-ray discs are only prepared for the kind of core fans, that is, 'enthusiasts', and even some fans are not particularly willing to spend such a huge sum of money to acquire an entire animation disc.

After all, most animations have 5000 episodes in a season, and the release of Blu-ray discs is six volumes, and 6x[-] is [-] yen, including tax in Japan.

Therefore, if you really want to collect, most Japanese people should still only buy video tapes. (The picture quality is several grades lower than that of Blu-ray discs).

Therefore, many people in the outside world think that the sales of Blu-ray discs determine everything about animation is actually wrong. At most, it reflects the achievements of animation from one aspect.

"So that's how it is." Konoe Lianghua nodded after listening.

Five thousand yen per roll was not an unacceptable price for her.

"Speaking of Mr. Higashino, what TV station is "Victor Is Justice" shown on?" Takahashi Yumi asked a little concerned.

As for the matter of [-] yen, she purposely saved the New Year's money just for the present, not to mention being able to come up with [-] yen, but [-] yen is not a big problem for her.

"The TV station "Victor is Justice" is Fuji TV, and the time is updated every week. If there is no accident, it should be at nine o'clock on Sunday night."

Higashino replied with a smile.

To be honest, he doesn't care much about the Blu-ray disc sales of "Winner Is Justice". After all, in a few years after the emergence of smart phones, the times will gradually change. By that time, watching animation will no longer need to watch the TV every day. However, Japan's business model of [-] yen for Blu-ray discs will gradually collapse, and at most it will be a little bit more in the past few years.

Compared with this, what makes Higashinoji sigh is that this time period is too good.

It can be seen that Fuji TV is also more concerned about the production of "Winner Is Justice". You must know that this was the broadcast time of Akira Toriyama's "Dragon Ball" in his previous life.

The time and place are all right, now it's up to 'Renhe' - whether the audience will give face or not.

As long as the audience saves face, Dongye Studio can make a lot of money by selling the screening rights of "Winner Is Justice" to some computer video websites in the future.

After all, Higashino also subsidized a lot of money in order to catch up with the progress of the production of "Winner Is Justice". Not counting the 1000 million yen production funds given by investors, Higashino has to post 1000 million yen for each episode. Eleven episodes are [-] million yen - which is why "Winner Is Justice" is so well-produced.

Made with money and manpower.

Coupled with the acquisition of the PW animation production company, and the subsequent salary payment situation, Higashino Division's small coffers were severely searched.

But to be honest, these are actually just small money for Higashino Division.

The sales volume of a volume of "Unnatural Death" is more than 8 million yen (excluding tax), plus "Lemon", Kumamon and other things that can continue to bring income. In fact, Higashino's assets have already climbed to tens of billions yen.

This is the treatment of national-level manga writers in Japan. Although it is not as good as the writers who write novels in Japan, the income can be said to be considerable.

So the current investment is indifferent.

Besides, as long as the Blu-ray disc and screening rights of "Winner Is Justice" sell well, the money invested now can basically be paid back.

To win the position of this year's hegemony animation, the entire set of Blu-ray discs needs to sell about [-] copies, which is [-] million yen in revenue, and Higashinoji can recover a lot of costs in an instant.

But Fujiwara Aoi and these little girls obviously didn't have as much as Higashino Division thought.

The few of them were simply happy that Higashinoji's work was featured on Fuji TV, and chatted about it.

This made Higashino Si also smile, and took the initiative to walk beside them and ask them about the Beiyi School.

"What's worth paying attention to in the Beiyi School recently? It's probably because the summer vacation is coming soon, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Konoe Lianghua thought about it and answered softly.

Summer vacation.
This too-student vocabulary made Higashino feel an inexplicable sense of strangeness.

After all, he has been in this world for more than a year, and he has never enjoyed the life of a Japanese high school student, and has been busy with the things at hand.

But this is of course, the cold winter period of Japanese manga is such a short period of time, and after Higashinoji released "Unnatural Death", it was directly shortened.

If you want to achieve results, you must seize the current opportunity.

As for other things worthy of attention, it may be that during the period when Higashinoji left Beiyijuku, I don't know what method Principal Yoshimine Ryuichi used to actually give Higashinoji the green light to pass all the exams.

This treatment made Takahashi Yumi, who has always had a bad mind, envious to death. She has to go to Beiyi School to make up the exam during the summer vacation, which is simply a purgatory on earth.

Bringing the topic back to summer vacation, Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara chatted softly.

Probably discussing where to go after the summer vacation.

Yumi Takahashi thinks it’s better to go to the seaside. She wants to go to Kanagawa to experience the Kanagawa surfing, while Fujiwara Aoi on the other side said that going to Kanagawa is better than going to Kyoto. Yes, there is no need to go to Kanagawa to see the sea. After all, isn’t the sea something that everyone can see?
The two of them argued fiercely, which made Higashino couldn't help but turned his head and asked Konoe Lianghua: "Liuhua, where are you going to go in summer vacation? Aren't you going to the place you want to go with Aoi and Yumi? "

Konoe Suzuka has been studying all the time, and is responsible for giving Higashinoji a massage at night. She is so exhausted that even Higashinoji feels a little distressed - if Yano Ryuichi is like this, Higashinoji will not have much psychological fluctuations.

Sure enough, it's better to relax a little bit.

But after listening to Higashinoji's words, Konoe Lianghua's face suddenly became melancholy, she looked at Higashinoji restlessly, her big eyes didn't blink.

What's wrong?Why did Asi suddenly ask me this question?

Sensing the change in Konoe Lianghua's complexion, Higashinoji was a little strange, he took a moment to relax: "What's wrong? Lianghua?"

When Higashino asked such a question, Konoe Lianghua hesitated for a while, and then replied in a low voice: "I want to stay by Asi's side during the summer vacation, can't I?"

As soon as he said this, Higashino was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and nodded in response: "Of course. I welcome you if you want to stay by my side, Lianghua."

However, Higashinoji also thought about it a little bit, and felt that the Beiyi School had a summer vacation, and after "Victor Is Justice" was released, he could indeed take a break.

After all, "Unnatural Death" is almost over, if I don't go out and walk around, not only Higashino Chihaya will be moldy at home, but Higashinoji will also be moldy.

After a year, I have to go out to see the scenery.

Otherwise, after finally reliving my whole life, I always feel like I am about to die suddenly in front of the workbench again.

Thinking about it, Higashino patted Konoe Lianghua's head, and then raised his head, looking ahead at the way home.

Now we have to wait for the release of "Victor is Justice".

Only when he got the specific results of "The Winner Is Justice" would he be in the mood to take Konoe Suzuka, Higashino Chihaya, and Takahashi Yumi to travel.

It will be officially released in two weeks.
