My quadratic is absolutely abnormal

: Grasping with Both Hands

In the car, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu and Yukinoshita Yukino looked at each other coldly, like two goshawks vying for a spouse for a territory, their eyes were terrifyingly sharp.

Fortunately, the two were restrained behind them. Although they stared at each other fiercely, they finally didn’t quarrel.

Su Jie watched the scenery outside the window in the car, and was relieved that Kasumigaoka Shiyu and Yukinoshita Yukino did not quarrel, otherwise Shizuka Hiratsuka would not have known to target Su Jie in this way.

At five o’clock in the afternoon, the driver sent the team for the school trip to the youth hotel.

After that, Su Jie basically communicated with the hotel staff. Otherwise, Hiratsuka Shizuna spoke Chinese, and Guangzhou people who are accustomed to Cantonese would not be able to understand it.

The students arranged a double room, and Su Jie paid for a single room. The main reason was that Su Jie had to talk with Firefly Company sometimes, and it was not convenient to live with other people.

The single room is equipped with a bathroom and toilet, air-conditioning and TV, and everything is fine. Su Jie thinks he can live well in the next few days.

After dragging the suitcase into the room and throwing the backpack on the bed, Su Jie took a hot bath. The exhaustion of flying and traveling was swept away, and he felt refreshed.

After resting for a while, there was a knock on the door.

“Why are you here?”

Before the door was fully opened, Tong Nai slipped in from under Su Jie’s arms, jumped onto the bed and turned on the TV.

The black cat stood outside the door and explained: “The TV in our room is broken, Kirino said he would come over to watch TV with you.”

“So that’s it, okay, come in.” Su Jie turned sideways, and when the black cat passed by Su Jie, Su Jie noticed that the black cat had taken a bath and changed clothes, and the long, soft hair still smelled of shampoo. fragrance.

In the room, Kirino was lying on the bed holding the remote control, constantly switching channels to watch TV, she couldn’t understand Chinese, so she didn’t know what to watch.

remove the bed, there were only two stools and a table in the room, Su Jie pulled the stool and sat down with the black cat, saw that Tong Nao also looked like he had taken a bath, and made some guesses: “You guys took a bath and changed clothes so quickly, are you planning to go out to play? Teacher Shizuka Hiratsuka said, rest tonight, and bring the team to visit Guangzhou tomorrow, so don’t go out alone now.”

“I told Mr. Shizuka Hiratsuka. Anyway, brother, you can speak Chinese. It’s fine for us to go out. Mr. Shizuka Hiratsuka agreed.”

Tong Nao stuck out her tongue, and said happily that she had already prepared for it.

“That’s good, I just want to go out for a stroll.” Su Jie also felt itchy in his heart. In his previous life, Su Jie went to university and worked after graduation in the city of Guangzhou, so he is no stranger to this. thoughts.

“It’s 5:40 now, and we’ll leave in an hour.” Su Jie looked at the time and was not in a hurry to leave.

“By the way, make a call to see what’s going on with Firefly.” Su Jie thought of something, picked up his mobile phone and dialed Kinoshita Seiichi’s number. It’s past six o’clock in Japan, and it’s almost the end of get off work time for Firefly.

As early as in Japan, Su Jie activated the international long-distance function for the purpose of using it now.

“Moses, Moses, what’s up with the president?”

Not long after, the phone was successfully dialed, and Kinoshita Makoto’s unique thin voice came from the other end, which made people feel honest and honest.

“Nothing happened in the company, right? I’ve arrived in Guangzhou, China, and within the next ten days, Firefly Company will rely on Supervisor Kinoshita to take care of me.”

Su Jie found a more comfortable place to lean against. The advancement of technology has greatly facilitated people’s lives. Even though Japan is thousands of miles away, Su Jie can use his mobile phone to understand the situation of Firefly Animation Studio to a certain extent.

“Today, everything in the company is normal and intact. Oh, by the way, the dubbing and recording work of the voice actors has ended. The five-minute preview version of the first episode of our “Daily Life of High School Boys” has been produced today, and it will be broadcast on the online website next week. , to carry out pre-heating and publicity.”

Seiichi Kinoshita’s voice was very excited. For this batch of animation staff who were poached by Su Jie from the original company that was on the verge of bankruptcy, the first version is not only the result of their hard work during this period, but also a product that proves their strength. So take it very seriously.

“Really? Then work harder and try to finish this month’s three-episode “Daily Life of High School Boys” when I go back.”

Su Jie was also very satisfied. He hired Seiichi Kinoshita, a group of more than a dozen experienced animators, and made Firefly enter the fast lane. It is still in the sketch design stage, and even the character design has not been finalized, let alone the pre-production version in a short period of time like now.

“However, President, the “Huamonugatari” project you mentioned, the ‘two-handed’ plan, we are seriously short of manpower and cannot proceed.” Seiichi Kinoshita hesitated when he said this on the other end of the phone, not wanting to damage Su Jie. In a good mood now.

But we can’t hide it, and at the end of thinking, Kinoshita Seiichi still told the truth: “The company is too short of staff now, only 44 people at full capacity, and they are all focused on “Daily Life of High School Boys”, and there is no manpower. To prepare for the “Chemical Monogatari” project.”

Su Jie felt a little stuck in his heart, and said, “What’s the matter, didn’t Xingjin Youjia arrange the recruitment of new staff?”

It turned out that after “One Punch Man” won the third place in the best manga work last year, the sales volume of One Punch Man’s booklet jumped 50% instantly, and more money went into Su Jie’s pocket. Before the production of “Life’s Daily” was completed and released, a new department was opened, and Kinoshita Seiichi was responsible for the supervision of the two animations, and the production of “Hua Monogatari” began.

Especially now that the “Monogatari Series” is about to be sold by Dengeki Bunko in bookstores, the manuscript fee will be quite a lot at that time.

Hearing Su Jie’s words, there was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds, and then Kinoshita Seiichi’s wry smile came: “I have read the original manuscript of the novel you gave me, President, and to be honest, the “Monogatari Series” is really not suitable for adapting animation. We refer to the style of painting you mentioned, the president, and it can be done if it can be done, but the budget for such a style of painting is too large. It is estimated that the cost will be 5-7 times that of “Daily Life of High School Boys”, and it requires more technical content. Gao, if the people involved in the production want to complete it within five months, even if we don’t count the veterans, the newcomers alone need more than 100 people, so that it can be completed on schedule.”

“That’s it!” After hearing this, Su Jie knew that he had wrongly blamed Seiichi Kinoshita. It wasn’t that Makoto Kinoshita didn’t work hard, but that it was really difficult for him to do so.

As the saying goes, it takes a long time to make up for people, tasks require people to make up for them, and things are difficult to make up for by hands, but it takes a lot of money to make up for people on this premise.

With Su Jie’s current budget, it is obviously not enough to meet the requirements, especially considering the need to recruit hundreds of animation staff, prepare new office space, new equipment and salary expenses for this, Su Jie’s monthly turnover is simply not enough No, even if the pre-preparation of “Chemical Monogatari” does not consume much money, Su Jie can’t afford the salary of the employees.

“That’s fine. Put this matter aside for now, and we’ll discuss it later when we go back.” Su Jie rubbed his temples with a headache. There are not enough people!

In the final analysis, it was money that caused the trouble. If there is no money to recruit staff, how can we start the production of two animations at the same time?It took a year to complete the painting.

Now even with the help of Su Jie, giving the animation studio all kinds of help, you don’t have to move forward in the dark like in the previous life, it will take about half a year, and the quality must be guaranteed in this way, so Su Jie has to increase his strength in the hands of people. There will be hundreds of animation staff recruitment plans.

After chatting with Makoto Kinoshita for a few more words, Su Jie reluctantly put down his phone. It seemed that his plan to start producing two animations at the same time was about to go bankrupt.

Originally, the production of “Daily Life of High School Boys” was completed in three months, while the production of “Monogatari” took five months, so that after the production of “Daily Life of High School Boys” was completed and the broadcast ended, “Hua Monogatari” immediately took advantage of With the popularity of the previous work starting to play, it will be able to build up the reputation of Firefly Animation Studio and make better money at the same time.

“Has something difficult happened to Mr. Su?” Seeing Su Jie’s frowning, the black cat asked in a low voice.

“The issue of the animation studio has encountered a problem with the capital chain.” Su Jie didn’t explain too much, and he had to figure out a solution for the problem of funds on his own.

“Brother, I still have some money here.” Tong Nai didn’t know when he crawled to Su Jie’s place, and stared at Su Jie with blinking eyes, which was a rare and obedient one.

“That’s not necessary, keep your money for yourself.” Su Jie smiled and patted Tong Nai’s head.

Tong Nai has a small coffers as a part-time model, but it is impossible for Su Jie to take money from his sister’s pocket, not to mention that the funds needed by the company cannot be supplemented by Tong Nao’s small coffers.

Seeing that Su Jie didn’t appreciate it, Tong Nai turned around with a snort, and continued to watch the TV, but after a while, his eyes clashed, and he said boringly: “Why is there no animation on the TV, or it is young-oriented, so boring! I just Do you want to see the picture but it doesn’t work?”

“It’s really a little less.” The black cat nodded beside him. They don’t understand Chinese or Chinese characters, and they just want to watch the animation screen, but this is obviously difficult.

The development of acg culture in this parallel world is too slow. Even Japan is still in the early stage of development, and China is still in its infancy. There are very few animations on TV, and even if there are animations for young people, Kirino and the others will naturally not interested.

“Let’s just watch it.” Su Jie didn’t have the time to watch the TV, watching Tong Nao quickly change channels, still thinking about the company.

“On July 9, the Ministry of Culture officially announced the animation industry 377 plan, which will vigorously develop my country’s original animation industry in the next three years, cultivate excellent animation talents, and enable animation to go abroad and export our Chinese culture; it is reported that, including Penguin Group Twelve companies including the company announced that they will enter the layout of the animation industry, and will cooperate with many Japanese animation companies to join forces in animation production, equipment purchase, personnel training and exchange, etc., to accelerate the development of my country’s animation industry. .”

All of a sudden, the TV station that Tong Nai switched to came out with such a piece of content, which seemed to be about the animation industry, which made Su Jie’s eyes instantly shift to the TV.
