revived

Before Ren Hao could sit still, Jiang Wei asked him from behind.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Wei smiled obscenely: "Your mother called my house at 10:30 and asked if you were there. As soon as I thought about it, I agreed, saying that you were asleep, your mother Only then can I rest assured, hehe, tell me the truth, have you met a girl?"

Ren Hao was stunned, no wonder his parents went to work without leaving a note, "Okay, you are quite smart, hehe, help me deal with this kind of thing again in the future."

"Cut." Jiang Wei looked at him with his mouth curled up, "Let's explain what happened last night first."

"Hey, save me with my looks and physique. Who would like me? Yesterday I went to the Internet cafe to spend the night."

Last night and this morning, Ren Hao can be said to have wandered between heaven and hell. If he hadn't made up for it in time, Xia Wanqiu might have eaten up all the bones.

"Hush..." Cui Wenwen, the deskmate, pressed her voice and kindly reminded the two of them: "Teacher Xia is here."

With the clear and loud sound of high-heeled shoes, the whole class was silent!

The expressionless Xia Wanqiu stepped into the class, casually threw the lecture notes on the podium, glanced at the students habitually, and saw that they were neatly dressed and had acceptable hairstyles, so she pushed the black frame and used the pointer Tapped on the blackboard: "Let's go to class!"

"Stand up!" Dong Xue fulfilled her duty as monitor.

"Hello teacher!"

"Well, please sit down!"

Compared with teachers in other subjects, facing Xia Wanqiu's three words "Hello teacher", no matter the volume or spirit, they are impeccable.After a few days of getting along, they understood how powerful Xia Wanqiu is. Even the most ignorant guy in the class would not dare to make trouble in front of her.

But now, this fearful Xia Huhu has become Ren Hao's nominal...girlfriend!

Chapter 62 Liu Sufen's Invitation

noon.

Ren Hao ran to a small unlicensed Internet cafe in the alley opposite Liulichang by himself.It's dark, dirty and messy here, it's really not the environment that Ren Hao likes, but there's no other way, he needs to confirm if there is any response from Bandai, if he can't get investment, he will be happy for nothing.

Clicking on the Yahoo mailbox, Ren Hao was overjoyed. This email address is basically unknown. Now, there are ten emails in the inbox, and BANDAI must be among them.

Sure enough, except for the two spam emails, the addresses of the other eight letters are all from Japan. Four of the eight letters have the same content. The address is the BANDAI review team. The English content probably says to ask Ren Hao to leave a contact number and discuss with him Further cooperation matters.

The four letters were sent every five hours, and judging from the tone of the text, it was obvious that this matter was inseparable.

Ren Hao swallowed eagerly, and continued to click on the following emails. What surprised him was that the remaining four emails were all sent in Chinese, with a contact number written on it, which also stated that Ren Hao should reply and hope to communicate with you. He talks.

Copying the email address, Ren Hao checked it from the Internet. Well, although there is a slight discrepancy, it is certain that the Chinese email address is from an animation production company under BANDAI. It is called SUNRISE, and the Chinese translation is Risheng.

Risheng is famous for making mecha animations. Classic works such as Gundam are all produced by Risheng. Even the animation "Lelouch of the Rebellion", which ranked first in China in 2007 and 2008, was also produced by Risheng. The power is evident.

Ren Hao didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly called his area code and noted that he would not be home until after six o'clock in the evening.

Back at school, Ren Hao was a little excited, and immediately accelerated the production of the complete script in order to complete it as soon as possible.

……

Today is Friday, after two classes in the afternoon, school can be over.

"get out of class."

Biology teacher Su Yun put away the lesson plans and walked out of the classroom slowly. At the same time, the class teacher Gu Yueyan came in, turned her head and smiled at Su Yun, and Su Yun blinked mischievously before leaving.

It can be seen that the two have a good personal relationship.

"Assign homework now, copy the text from page 27 to page [-] three times, and recite the paragraphs we underlined in the morning, next week I will check them one by one..."

While Gu Yueyan was assigning homework, everyone noticed that Xia Wanqiu had already stood at the door of a class of classrooms at some point, looking at them with dignity, but did not come in.

Instructed not to run around on weekends. After reviewing homework with the family, Gu Yueyan saw Xia Wanqiu: "Well, that's all, Mr. Xia, please keep your homework." But he shook his head and said: "The homework will be assigned in the morning, um, I have something to do with Ren Hao."

The eyes of the students fell on Ren Hao for a while.It's perfectly normal for a teacher to find students, not to mention that Ren Hao had some troubles yesterday, and Xia Wanqiu, the deputy director of the Political and Education Department, asked him to go out, which is also a matter of course.

"Yeah." Gu Yueyan looked at Ren Hao and nodded: "Go with Teacher Xia, remember, you must explain clearly what you need to explain, and be sincere."

Ren Hao's heart beat, he simply packed his schoolbag, and immediately followed Xia Wanqiu. After walking along the corridor for a while, Ren Hao asked suspiciously: "Mr. Xia, what do you want from me?"

Xia Wanqiu walked briskly, without looking back: "Zhou Kailiang's father called and said that the money has been remitted, and he asked you to delete the recording."

"I see." Ren Hao said again: "Is there anything else?" He didn't think that Xia Wanqiu called him out just for the fight.

Xia Wanqiu looked at him from the corner of her eye, didn't speak, and continued to move forward.This route does not seem to be going to the office. After passing through the back door of the teaching building, at the corner to the west of the parking shed, Xia Wanqiu finally stopped, looking around without anyone, and slowly turned her eyebrows: "My mother just called , she said, I want to see you tonight."

"Evening?" Ren Hao was startled, his eyes widened and he said, "I just met a few hours ago, why are you in such a hurry?" As everyone knows, in the eyes of the elderly, the lifelong affairs of their children are the first , let alone an older young woman like Xia Wanqiu, Liu Sufen has always been concerned about her marriage, so it's strange not to be in a hurry.

Xia Wanqiu took a deep breath, and a little sadness could not be concealed between the brows: "This time my dad is coming too, you should make preparations."

"How to prepare? The fake documents will not arrive until next week at least. If I forget to bring the documents this time, the old man will definitely be suspicious, and I won't reveal the truth by then?" Ren Hao was a little anxious: "Why don't you think of a way , it will be delayed until next week."

At this time, Su Yun, who was carrying a small satchel, came out from the back door to go home, inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xia Wanqiu and Ren Hao whispering, she looked suspicious, and walked over ponderingly: "Sister Xia, are you going home together? "As he spoke, he blinked at her, the meaning in his eyes probably only the two of them could understand.

Ren Hao quickly shut up, with an attitude of humbly receptive.Xia Wanqiu looked at her and shook her head, "No, I still have something to do with finding students."

"Oh." Su Yun looked at Ren Hao, "Then... I'll go back first."

After being silent for a while, seeing Su Yun walking away, Ren Hao in the shade couldn't help scratching his head: "What should I do, otherwise, you said that I am too busy with work, and I don't have much time these two days. Press for false certificates and try to get them as soon as possible.”

"Let me try." Xia Wanqiu thought for a while, then took out her mobile phone and called home, "Mom, I'm afraid that what you just said won't work... Hmm... Ren Hao's company works overtime, and they won't be able to spare these two days Out of time...um...even at night...well...let's talk about it in a few days, I'll call you when he's free...well, don't rush...um...ok... ...I hang up."

Putting away the black Siemens mobile phone, Xia Wanqiu looked at him expressionlessly: "It seems that my mother is in a hurry, and I am afraid it will take two days at most. If the certificate is not yet available, you should make plans early, um, put your clothes Make your hairstyle more sophisticated, if you can fool it for a day, let’s fool it for a day, remember?"

Ren Hao touched his nose helplessly, "Remember, remember."

"Leave me your mobile phone number, so I can contact you conveniently."

"I don't have a mobile phone, how about I give you my home number?"

"Ah."

The two exchanged phone calls, Xia Wanqiu looked at nothing, and then pinched the black frame to straighten the glasses: "You go back, be smart in two days, don't let my mother see the flaws."

"I'll try my best, then, goodbye, Teacher Xia."

"Ah."

Chapter 63 SUNRISE - Sunrise Corporation

Back home by bike, Ren Hao hurriedly checked with his uncle, and sure enough, as he expected, the certificate could not be issued within seven days.Ren Hao thought about it for a while, and Xia Wanqiu was right, it's better to make plans early, so he rode his bicycle to the nearby Zhuangsheng Sogo Department Store at the west entrance of the alley without taking off his school uniform.

In order not to pay the fare, Ren Hao parked his old-fashioned bicycle at the gate of KFC in the northeast corner of the intersection, then went to the clothing store on the third floor of Zhuang Sheng, and wandered back and forth with this floor.

Clothes that look old are undoubtedly dark tones. In fact, it is most suitable to buy a suit, but Ren Hao thinks it is too eye-catching. After choosing for a long time, he finally chose a 190 yuan black patterned casual shirt.After trying it out, it felt pretty good, so I swiped my card to settle the bill.

Where credit cards are accepted, Ren Hao generally does not give cash. He always keeps some rich money in his pocket for emergencies, otherwise he has no idea.

I recalled my clothes, and I remembered a pair of beige slacks, which should go well with a black shirt, and a pair of white canvas shoes, black, beige, white, um, a complete outfit.Ren Hao, who is very good at living, didn't want to waste money, so he didn't choose other clothes, and went down to the basement floor with a plastic bag. After choosing a bottle of gel cream from the supermarket, he rode home slowly.

Parents also came back from get off work, seeing that Ren Hao had bought clothes, he couldn't help being very surprised, and asked him where he got the money from, and if Aunt Rong wanted it again.Ren Hao couldn't stop smiling bitterly, and he just made the excuse of the pocket money he had saved for a year to get the matter over with.

Night.

Seven forty-five.

bell bell bell...

While the family was watching the news, the BBK phone rang.

Ren Hao stopped Zhuo Yuqin who was going to answer the phone: "Mom, I'll answer it." He walked to the small bed, picked up the wireless extension from the pillow, pressed the answer button, and walked out of the house slowly.The business has not been negotiated yet, Ren Hao doesn't want his parents to know, so as not to be happy in vain.

Zhuo Yuqin looked at Ren Hao's back, and muttered, "This kid, he's been very mysterious lately, and I don't know what's wrong."

In the courtyard corridor.

Ren Hao held up the phone and "Hello" for a long time, but there was no answer from the other party, but there was an intermittent rustling sound, and finally, Dudu disconnected.

There are more or less such problems in international long-distance calls. Ren Hao didn't care, looked around, and immediately leaned on the toon tree next to Aunt Rong's house, put his feet casually, and waited patiently.

Within a minute, the phone rang again.

Ren Hao quickly connected: "Hello, hello."

"Hello, are you Mr. Ren Haoren, the scriptwriter of "DEATH-NOTE"?" The voice was much clearer this time, and Ren Hao was a little surprised that the opposite was a woman, and the accent was definitely Chinese.

"I am Ren Hao, may I ask who you are?"

"Hello, my name is Shang Qing, and I'm a member of the production team of Sunrise Company. Well, the Chinese translation should be Sunrise Company, which belongs to BANDAI. Your script was sent to our team by the head office." Listen to the voice, Shang Qing About 24 years old, I don't know if it is an illusion, but Ren Hao felt that she was a little nervous.

In fact, Ren Hao is more nervous than her!

"Miss Shang, nice to meet you." Ren Hao scratched his head: "Your email said that you are going to talk about follow-up cooperation, so my script has passed the review?"

"It's like this." Shang Qing on the other end of the phone felt a little restless: "The storyboard script you sent the day before yesterday has been made into a plan, and the head office approved the plan the next day, so the producer appointed me Come to discuss cooperation matters with you, Mr. Ren, I would like to ask, have you sent your script to other Japanese animation companies?"

Ren Hao pondered for a while, then Fang said: "Not yet."

"Well, then, are you willing to cooperate with Risheng?"

Uh, this question...

It seems to be a novice.

Hearing this, Ren Hao couldn't help but smile, feeling amused, and the tension eased a little: "That's natural, but I don't know how to calculate the manuscript fee?" Ren Hao is not an old hand, otherwise he wouldn't rush to ask Price.

"Sorry, the script fee needs to be determined by the investor, that is, the BANDAI head office, after setting the investment amount. The producer asked me to contact you for this purpose. If the specific details are not finalized, the head office has no way to estimate the investment. The amount of money, such as the number of episodes you estimate for "DEATH-NOTE", has a great impact on the production budget."

"Is that so, um, is the producer next to you? The script has been slightly changed. I want to talk to him."

"Sorry, it's off-duty time, I'm not at the company." Due to the time difference, China is an hour ahead of Japan, that is to say, it is about [-]:[-] in Japan now.

Shang Qing continued: "Well, if there is any change, you can tell me first, and I will convey it to the producer for you later. Moreover, Mr. Heguchi can't speak Chinese, so I'm afraid I can't talk to you."

"Okay, the script that I sent to your company at the beginning is expected to end in 37 episodes, but now I want to turn it into thirteen episodes. Well, the specific plan is not clear for a while. I will briefly summarize the thirteen episodes later. Send you the outline of the script, let the producer read it, he should know, if he thinks it's not good, then it doesn't matter if you stick to the original plan."

"Okay, I'll pass it on to Mr. Kawaguchi."

Ren Hao rubbed his nose and smiled: "Then what else should we agree on now?"

"Well, why don't I call you tomorrow, so that you can communicate directly with the producer, hehe, as for the specifics, I don't know much about it, actually." Shang Qing looked very upset. Excuse me.

Ren Hao was stunned: "Aren't you from the production team?"

"I just received the transfer order today, and I just entered the animation production team, and I am responsible for contacting you."

"Huh? Is Risheng the only one who can speak Chinese?"

"That's not true. There are also some Chinese in other animation production groups, but they are responsible for technical aspects, and it is impossible to spare time, so the higher-ups dropped me to the animation production group. Well, my original job was similar to that of a secretary. , and it’s not a department with the production team, so I don’t know the specific process, I’m really sorry.”

"It's nothing, I don't know the way here, and I have to ask you to worry about it in the future."

"You are too polite, I am, please give me more advice in the future."

If a guy with a little knowledge at this time heard the conversation between the two about cooperation and discussion, he would definitely laugh out loud.

What a dish!

Chapter 64 Initial Preparations

The job of a producer, in simple terms, is mainly planning the production schedule, arranging the daily production progress, looking for production groups or production companies, seeking external sponsors, and at the same time working together with the executive production to ensure that each element of the project All put together on time and without error.

The supervisor (director) is responsible for controlling the overall animation, while the producer controls the overall layout.

In other words, a producer can also be compared to an animation agent.

The next day.

Saturday morning.

Shang Qing called from the animation production team of Risheng Company, and Mr. Kawaguchi, the producer, was beside him. Every conversation between him and Ren Hao, Shang Qing would translate for the other party, so that the two could communicate.

After an hour-long conversation, Heguchi finally understood what Ren Hao meant. He also said that thirteen episodes are completely feasible, but he needs to discuss with the supervision and planning team before deciding whether to adopt it.During the period, the two talked about the later development of this animation. From Kawaguchi's point of view, he is very optimistic about "DEATH-NOTE", and promised to try to raise more funds from above.

In fact, Ren Hao didn't know that his luck was already very good. There was often a long delay in the early stage of planning, and some projects even failed to prepare the production funds a year after they passed the review.But now, "DEATH-NOTE" has basically been finalized, the difference is only a matter of funding.

"Mr. Ren, Mr. Taniguchi went to the supervisor to discuss the script. If the supervisor thinks it is feasible, he will make a new business plan and apply for funds from the investor. Well, it will probably take a few days at the earliest to reply to you." Qing deliberately learned the whole process of animation production last night, unlike yesterday, she didn't know what to ask.

Ren Hao, who was sitting on the threshold outside the courtyard, held up the wireless extension and said, "Miss Shang, can you tell me about the animation production team, I don't know much about it yet."

"Okay." Shang Qing organized the language and said solemnly: "The current stage of "DEATH-NOTE" is the initial stage of production, the finalization of the script, the business plan, and the acquisition of funds are all to be completed at this stage. When the funds are in place After that, the animation will be formally produced, and the "DEATH-NOTE" production team will be established."

"Hey, aren't you from the production team, why do you want to set up a new one?"

"That's it. I'm in the general team. Every time I make a new animation, I have to send people from the general team to join the new production team. Since then, I will no longer accept other jobs, but will be responsible for the production of the animation." Shang Qing answered very professionally, it seems that she did not work hard last night.

"Then the "DEATH-NOTE" production team hasn't been established yet? The specific personnel haven't been finalized yet?" Ren Hao wanted to know the production team the most besides the manuscript fee. The quality of an animation depends entirely on them.

"Not yet, because the production of an animation is likely to be completed by multiple companies, and the team composition must be determined according to the amount of investment." What Shang Qing means is that if the production funds are large, the manpower arranged will be fine. .

For example, supervision, character design, and voice actors. If it is an animation with a small investment in production, it will be difficult to invite masters who are at the top of the industry today.
