Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 403 I Really Can't Figure It Out (4000 words)
Nakano Yusaki had heard about it from Chinatsu Yamagami.

She is actually a disciple of Higashino Division, and although she did not offer tea formally, she is not counted as a disciple.

But just relying on the name of Master Higashino, she can more or less use this name as a stepping stone in the Japanese manga publishing industry to make a name for herself.

This made Nakano Yusaki even more grateful to Higashino Division in her heart. You must know that she came all the way from Hokkaido mainly to repay Higashino Division.

But after running here for so long, she didn't repay her kindness. Instead, she owed more and more. While she was a little grateful, she also felt a little sorry.

So I earnestly studied manga knowledge at Higashino Division, just to repay his favor.

While she was an apprentice, she naturally heard about it from Chinatsu Yamagami.

Usually it takes at least a year or so to study under a famous teacher like Dong Yesi.

But just less than a month after I learned this, Higashino Division asked me to 'become a teacher' to contribute?
This naturally made her feel that Higashino's subtext was to drive her away.

"Could it be because I'm too stupid? Master!"

Arisaki Nakano asked in a low voice, aggrieved, and even stopped the lively single ponytail that had been swaying back and forth.

what?
When Higashinoji heard Nakano Yusaki's previous sentence, he felt inexplicable.

After hearing what she added later, he even looked at the other party for no reason—this guy's voice was so frightened that it was distorted.

But it didn't wait for Higashino to speak.

Nakano Yusaki cautiously continued to speak: "Give me some more time! Teacher Higashino! I will definitely work hard to make money! At that time, I will definitely let Teacher Higashino sleep on a bed made of money and take a bath in Japanese yen!"

Good guy.

Tonoji shook his head.

Sure enough, the little Japanese girl thought that he really couldn't keep up with the speed at all.

How did she think of so many messy things from the words she just asked her to contribute?
"You can keep your own money for bathing, and you are not afraid of skin diseases."

Higashino Tsukasa knocked Nakano Yusaki hard on the head angrily.

After seeing her cover her head with a 'woo', Higashino continued: "I didn't intend for you to become a teacher here, but I just think it's time for you to enter the actual operation stage."

He paused, and then continued: "The general plot of "The Grudge" I wrote for you before. Have you finished reading it?"

"Huh? Ah, I've finished watching."

Nakano Yusaki nodded.

A few days ago, Higashino thought about the general plot of "The Grudge" and gave it to her, so that she could adapt to the story style of "The Grudge" in advance.

After all, "The Grudge" is not a movie like "Midnight Ring" that has a long main line that can be painted. It is mainly a big story composed of various small stories.

It is not easy to connect these stories together.

To be honest, Higashino thought about it for a while when he handed "The Grudge" to Nakano Yusaki.

Mainly thinking about whether Yusaki Nakano has the ability to draw "The Grudge" well.

If the drawing is not good, then the script of "The Grudge" is a waste.

In addition, whether Nakano Yusaki is a newcomer and can grasp the story well is another matter.

Higashino Division thought for a long time, and finally decided to hand over "The Grudge" to Arisaki Nakano for painting.

One reason is that he has other work to do.

Secondly, although the script of "The Grudge" is quite good, the overall process is still too short, similar to "Midnight Ring", and it is not suitable for long-form serialization.

Higashino Division is now well-known, and it is not easy to do it yourself for ultra-short comics such as "The Grudge".

So he relaxed his mind and handed "The Grudge" to Nakano Yusaki to practice.

But this time, Higashino Division mainly wanted to see Nakano Yusaki's ability.

Can she become the pillar author of Dongye comics?
This is what Higashino cares most about.

"Arisaki, you can start constructing the manga plot according to the plot of "The Grudge". Within these two weeks, hand over the manuscript to me and editor-in-chief Hosokawa for review."

Higashino Division opened the mouth very simply.

"I understand."

Nakano Arisaki nodded nervously.

She is not a fool, from the conversation just now, she probably understands the meaning of Dong Yesi's words.

This time is like a midterm exam in school.

Higashinoji and Hosokawa Koharu are the examiners, who are used to test her recent study results.

In this case
Then just do it seriously!
Nakano Yusaki took a stack of manga manuscripts and was ready to start.

Watching Nakano Yusaki leave, Higashino Division turned to look at the profitability of the Higashino manga website.

Although he personally doesn't care much about these things.

After all, if everything talks about money. It must be a bit cheesy.

But everything is inseparable from the word 'money'.

Even if Higashino Division doesn't care, Yano Ryuichi, Seo Daigo, Hosokawa Koharu will always care.

So Higashino still decided to take a second look.

But at the moment when he saw the background data, Higashino was truly amazed - no wonder there will be so many crappy paid apps and paid websites in the future.

The speed of making money from the market is really unmatched by other methods.

In just the three or four days since the rise of Higashino Comics, Higashino Comics has already generated millions of yen in profit.

And what Dongye Manga needs to pay is only some virtual currency on the Internet
This money making speed is really too fast.

Rao Dongyesi couldn't help sighing when he saw it.

And this number is still climbing upwards, and there is no intention of stopping - this is just a number generated in the past few days
At this point, even if Higashino Division does nothing now, he can rely on the website of Higashino Manga to get the money to live with Higashino Chihaya until the next life.

Really great.

Put aside these miscellaneous and money-making little things.

on the other side.

Higashino Studio's "Unnatural Death" animation has finally come to an end, together with Tokyo Animation's "June's Hymn".

At the same time, there is a quarter-long battle for supremacy.

It finally came to an end when the two comics competed with each other.

The final result of the competition made countless well-known commentators and magazine authors who had predicted before lose their voices.

The sales volume of the last volume of Blu-ray Disc of Higashino Comics "Unnatural Death" reached 2.7 million pieces!
It is far ahead of the 2.3W Blu-ray discs of the last volume of "June's Hymn" of Tokyo Animation.

There is a gap of four thousand pieces.

This gap cannot be changed by any language.

When the news came, the original painters and sound effects artists of Dongye Studio who were in charge of the "Unnatural Death" project team jumped for joy.

If it weren't for Daigo Seo and Koharu Hosokawa's pixiv and Higashino manga departments, they almost wouldn't be dancing together in the studio.

You must know that "June's Hymn" is an animation owned by Tokyo Animation, a leading Japanese animation production company.

Their resources, manpower, and material resources are not comparable to a small workshop like Dongye Studio.

And what was the final result?
Our Higashino studio won the Season Championship!

Beat that Tokyo Animation!
This undoubtedly gave Dongye Studio confidence.

The evaluations from the outside world are basically positive. The newspapers and magazines that were still touting "June's Hymn" before now all come to congratulate Dongye Studio for winning the season championship as a newcomer.

Of course, they also reported the situation on the capital animation side.

The main purpose is to encourage Tokyo Animation to continue to work hard in the next quarter. The sales volume of 2.3K discs of "June's Hymn" is already a very good result.

After all, Tokyo Animation has always been the leader in the animation manufacturing industry.

Of course, it is impossible for them to make remarks that ridicule this 'leader', so it is naturally based on encouragement.

But obviously, Dujing Animation did not care about these comments in the unexpected world, but released a very important news-the theatrical version of "June's Hymn" will be on the screen before the end of the year.

And as soon as this news appeared, the news that Dongye Studio won the season crown was instantly overwhelmed, and it was instead a discussion on the theatrical version of "June's Hymn".

When Higashino Division got the news, he was inexplicably taken aback.

The theatrical version of "June's Hymn" by Tokyo Animation?

This is really rich and powerful.

Really rich and powerful.

The results of "June's Hymn" are indeed good, but this kind of financial resources is the production of the theater version.
Only Capital Animation can have such financial and material resources.

The envious eyes of Qianxia Yamagami, who was a member of the production team of "Unnatural Death", were bloodshot.

The "Unnatural Death" they produced is also Season Crown.

Why don't you come up with a theatrical production to overwhelm the opponent's limelight?

For this reason, Yamagami Qianxia said to Higashino: "Mr. Higashino, why don't we make a theatrical version as well, so as to suppress the limelight of Tokyo Animation."

This sentence is of course just a joke.

Just thinking about it, it is impossible for Higashino Division to really produce a theatrical version in order to fight against Tokyo Animation.

Therefore, after saying this, Chinatsu Yamagami lowered her head and prepared to continue working.

But before she could do anything, Dong Yesi had already taken up the topic with a smile: "Okay, that's what I plan to do."

what?
Qianxia Shan Shang didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when she listened to it, she realized that something was wrong: "Mr. Dong, Dongye? Are you kidding me?"

This is really wrong!
She was just joking.

Higashinoji won't take it seriously, will he?
"I'm not kidding."

Tonoji replied.

"But...but but?"

She was "but" over there for a long time, unable to utter a word, and finally said: "This shouldn't be."

Yes.

It shouldn't be.

In her impression, Dong Yesi was not the kind of aggressive person.

"What shouldn't be?"

Higashinosi said calmly, "I originally had this plan."

"Is that so?" Qianxia Yamagami took a second look at Higashino, and asked hesitantly, "Then, Mr. Higashino, when will we start making the theatrical version of "Unnatural Death"?"

"When did I tell you that I was going to make a theatrical version of "Unnatural Death"?"

Higashinoji was a little amused.

"Hey?"

Chinatown on the mountain was even more confused.

"Unnatural Death" is now the Kanban work of Dongye Studio, and it is supported by excellent original works. As long as their theatrical version is not too badly produced, there will definitely be many people who will buy it.

But Higashino directly said that he would not make the theatrical version of "Unnatural Death"?
What kind of operation is this?
Higashinoji did not betray Shan Shang Qianxia.

He just smiled and continued: "What we are going to do is an animated film with an original script, understand?"

"Cough, cough, cough."

When Chinatsu Yamagami just heard the words 'original script', she couldn't hold back her cough.

As she coughed, she was even more shocked and confused.

Animated film from an original script.

What is this concept?

For example, when "Unnatural Death" was produced, it was mainly adapted according to the plot of the original manga by Higashino Tsukasa, and then put on the big screen.

In a sense, it is still a work based on the original work.

This is the process from 1 to 2.

But the original screenplay is different.

The so-called originality means that everything starts from zero.

From character setting, plot setting, to movie duration, etc. These all need to be studied in the long run.

Starting from nothing is always many times more difficult than starting from something.

Plus.
Has Higashinoji had previous experience as an animation film screenwriter?
It should be completely absent, right?

In this case, why did he directly ask to make an animated film?
Not to mention that movies are much more difficult than animation.

And it is not necessarily guaranteed to pay back.

As a girl in the studio who still knows Higashinoji well, Yamagami Chinatsu naturally understands that Higashinoji has all kinds of weird ideas.

But she never thought that a genius like Higashinoji could think so wildly.

This really made her feel like the other party was an alien who landed on Earth by force.

And
"If our production team were to make the animated film you mentioned, Higashino-sensei. What about "Naoki Hansawa"?"

Shan Shang Qianxia touched her little head and asked in a low voice.

Yes.

"Hansawa Naoki" is also coming to an end.

If Higashino Studio produces that extremely unstable animated film, then who will produce the animation of "Hansawa Naoki"?
Higashino Studio doesn’t have so much spare capacity. While making animated films, it can also make animations of “Hansawa Naoki”.

This is without a doubt a deadly alternative.

To be honest, Chinatsu Yamagami is actually more inclined to the current animation production of "Hansawa Naoki" than the original animation film that is unclear about the situation.

Steady and steady is the last word!
And the "Hansawa Naoki" manga is now the number one in Japan in the true sense.

As long as you win, you will basically lock in the next season championship.

That's why Qianxia on the mountain couldn't understand.

Why is Higashino suddenly unable to figure it out, what kind of animated movie do you want to make?

Du Dongye Studio has absolutely no production experience in this area.

Can't figure it out?
