NOVEL NEXT Chapter 67
Chapter 67 No abuse, no abuse at all!
On July 7, DOS moved.
The new office is located in Suginami-ku, Tokyo, not far from the office of Baige, a new company established by Akino Kawano.
Compared with the original office space, the new office space is larger and the environment is more comfortable.
Originally, it was basically production progress, performance, original painting, color designation, etc. The groups were crowded together, but now we can make a slight distinction.
In addition, in the new office space, there are a lot more positions than before, but this is because DOS is preparing to hold another recruitment.
For the original person, CL is enough, but Lelouch is not enough.
Although outsourcing is still inevitable, it is still more stable for your own company to recruit more talents.
I’ll talk about recruitment when the time comes, and now the main thing is to move the company over first.
In the new office space, Makoto Takagi commanded and dispatched on the spot: the original drawing and the original drawing were put together, hundreds of boxes of blades were all put in the utility room, and computers and the like were also seated according to their respective workstation numbers.
“President Takagi, your company has a lot of blades, so you can open a store to sell blades.” Hana Hana said, laughing and crying.
She came to see the situation on behalf of Akino Kawano.
As Kawano Akino’s assistant in Chikawa, after Kawano Akino left Chikawa, she once hesitated whether to resign. Later, Kawano Akino set up a new company. She did not hesitate to jump over and is still Kawano Akino’s assistant.
Hearing Hana Hana’s words, Makoto Takagi calmly said: “It’s impossible to open a store exclusively, but if I do a few more animations, I’m going to open an online store specializing in blades.”
Hanada Hana: “???”
The moving company hired a dedicated mover, so it was not too tiring, but it was still busy for almost a whole day.
The next day, the employees began to work at the new office location.
The comfortable environment almost made them scream:
“Sure enough, this kind of office environment is cooler.”
“It’s nice that the company has money.”
“Finally there is a big TV, and I will work more overtime in the future.”
“Esaka, is that called overtime? You obviously want to watch TV!”
“Be careful that the president charges you electricity bills.”
…
Compared with the excitement of the employees, Takagi Makoto himself is a bit uncomfortable.
I don’t know if it has something to do with his personal nostalgia.
Maybe you will get used to it after a while.
In the afternoon, two guests came to the new office space-Asada Kako and the accompanying photographer.
Originally, after the CL was over, Asada Kako wanted to interview Takagi Makoto again, but Makoto Takagi was busy with all kinds of trivial matters and had no intention of accepting the interview, so he simply postponed it until he moved the company.
Seeing Takagi Makoto, Asada Xiangzi said congratulations first, and then another greeting.
When both parties sat down, Asada Kako asked, “President Takagi, is this interview still faceless, right?”
“Do you think I’m suitable for showing my face?” Takagi Makoto asked back.
Asada Kako smiled: “It’s really not suitable. You look so handsome. Once you show your face, maybe readers will think you are the male model from Animation Weekly.”
“I love to hear these words.” Takagi Makoto was not polite or humble.
“In fact, in this interview, I originally wanted to talk about CL with you, but now it’s been a month since CL is finished, and it doesn’t seem to be very interesting anymore.”
Asada Kako said, tentatively asked: “I don’t know if President Takagi has already begun to consider a new plan. Can you tell me something about it?”
“The new plan has actually been done, but it has not yet entered the formal production stage.” Takagi Makoto replied.
“Oh?”
Asada Kako suddenly looked forward to it.
Takagi considered it a little, and then said: “The new animation is based on mecha, but now the simple mecha theme is not very good, so we also added a little power… mecha is not the main thing. The selling point, the shaping of the protagonist is the main selling point.”
Kako Asada took a pen to jot down quickly, and then asked: “Will there still be tear gas elements in the new animation?”
“No, no tears at all.” Takagi Makoto replied without thinking.
Asada Kako: “Will it be abused then?”
Takagi Makoto: “No abuse, no abuse at all! On the contrary, it’s very cool.”
Kako Asada stared at Takagi Makoto’s face, always feeling that Makoto Takagi’s words were a little imaginary.
Probably because of being stared a little uncomfortably, Takagi Makoto said again: “In the new animation, there are wonderful wits, passionate battles, bonds between good brothers, and warm siblings… In short, it will be one. It’s a very cool and wonderful animation, so you can look forward to it.”
“That’s it.”
Asada Kako thought about it and said, “According to you, it will be a very kingly animation.”
“Wellness is not king. I’ll know when it’s time to broadcast.” Takagi Makoto did not answer clearly.
Kingly way and evil way, these are two completely opposite concepts, these two concepts should be first put forward by the comics industry.
Wang Dao comics are mainly based on passionate battles, and their content is relatively magnificent. Generally speaking, the male protagonist takes a group of partners and fights for a certain reason, growing and becoming stronger.
Things like Naruto, Pirate, Dragon Ball, etc. are all kingly comics.
Evil Dao comics are not so majestic and upright, and even often give people a sense of slant. However, such comics generally have a larger brain and are more innovative, and they are more suitable for exploring human nature.
The most typical in evil manga is Death Note.
If you only listen to the description of Makoto Takagi, Lelouch is indeed a very kingly animation, but…this animation is not that simple.
Kako Asada didn’t think much about it, but just sighed: “To be honest, President Takagi’s tear gas animation is very good, and now I am going to do mecha-themed animation, I personally feel a bit pity.”
“It’s nothing to be a pity.”
Makoto Takagi shook his head slightly, “There is a limit to making tear gas animations. Like CL, which has a high reputation, but the sales volume is not even 40,000. Instead of continuing to make tear gas animations, it is better to do that kind of very cool and passionate animation. And I also want to get to know some new audience friends.”
“But… continue to do tear gas animation, there is a fixed audience group, plus you have CL scores, I believe that many audiences who have seen CL before are willing to pay for the new animation, but do other animations. Those viewers who have watched CL may not be willing to pay for the new animation.” Asada Kako said regretfully.
Takagi Makoto didn’t care about this: “Willing to pay for the new animation, of course it’s good, not willing and not demanding.”
“All right.”
Kako Asada no longer sighed, “Anyway, I wish President Takagi’s new animations will sell well, and I wish DOS will flourish after moving to a new office.”
