"Uh—do you want to learn manga from me?" Subaru scratched his cheek.
"Yeah! Subaru's "Doraemon" is wonderful, you can be my teacher."
After thinking for a while, Subaru said, "Okay then, but I can only teach you some basic knowledge. I believe I can't compare to you in the latter part... Shiina-san, come whenever you have time. Find me."
"Yeah." Zhenbai nodded again, and ran upstairs again.
He is really amazing, to accept a student who is known as a world-class talented painter... Subaru watched Mashiro's back going upstairs, and suddenly laughed dumbfounded.
……
"Thor."
"Huh? Really white, what's the matter?"
"As for the shower thing, I don't have a towel."
"Ah! Towel, sorry, I forgot, I'll bring it to you now."
Chapter 175 Animation Company Establishment Plan
The next day, Subaru, who received a call from the editor early in the morning, hurried to the coffee shop that he had agreed upon. After entering, Kenjiro was already sitting in it. There was an empty cup in front of him, so he must have been waiting for a while.
"Mr. Editor, I'm sorry I'm late." Subaru greeted and sat down opposite Kenjiro.
"It's okay, I informed you suddenly, it's normal to be late." Kenjiro waved his hand to express his indifference, and then handed the menu to Subaru. "Let's order something to drink first, I'll treat you."
"Hey—then hot cocoa."
"It's hot cocoa. I just finished it too. Let me order a cup for you."
"Then trouble you."
After Kenjiro brought the hot cocoa and his own coffee, he fell silent again, just drinking his own coffee quietly.
"Uh——Mr. Editor, you came here on purpose, maybe you didn't just ask me to come out for a cup of coffee?" Seeing Kenjiro's delay in speaking, Subaru asked tentatively.
"How should I put it, this matter is indeed a bit difficult to explain." The editor scratched his head in trouble, and took a sip of coffee, as if he was struggling with something.
"Mr. Editor, you can explain slowly, don't worry."
"...Okay." After hesitating for a moment, Kenjiro put down the coffee and propped his chin with his hands. "Actually, there is only one topic that calls you out today, and it's about your book."
"My book?"
"Yes, to be precise, it's about the animation of your book."
"That's it..." Subaru nodded as if realizing something.Ever since "Harumono" became a hit and he refused to animate it, Subaru knew that Dengeki Bunko would never let go of this opportunity to gain a higher reputation—to put it bluntly, it meant higher profits.
"I remember Subaru, you said before that you didn't decide to animate "Harumono" for the time being, right? Well, now the company would like to ask you if you have changed your mind, because recently a large company specializing in animation said that it would like to do "Harumono" "Cooperation……"
"Has any big company taken a fancy to my "Spring Things"?"
Subaru wasn't too surprised. With the continuous release of "Spring Things", when the content is enough to complete a season, someone will definitely come to the door.
"Yes, so the company would like to ask for your opinion again. After all, as a light novel writer, animation can help him gain a higher reputation and more income."
"Hmm—" Subaru tapped his fingers on the table lightly, still thinking about it. "Don't talk about the company, what does Mr. Editor think of it?"
"Me? My words—" Kenjiro Huanhuan thought for a while with his arms in his arms, then suddenly leaned on the table and approached Subaru, and whispered, "That depends on what you think."
"What do I think?" Subaru became interested for a moment.
"I have to say, Subaru, you are definitely a genius, not to mention other things, at least in light novels, I can't find the second person who can write such excellent light novels at this age. "
"Uh——you're too proud." Subaru nodded politely, and Kenjiro thought that Subaru was being humble, but only someone could know whether he was being humble or not.
Kenjiro took a sip of coffee, and then said: "Every work of "Spring Things", "Date A Live" and even "Doraemon" has become popular, not to mention "Spring Things", the other two works also have many people. Want to ask you to get the animation copyright?"
Subaru nodded. When I posted recently, I could always see all kinds of private messages bombarding this kind of content. Even the N station company asked me if I wanted to animate it, but Subaru didn't reply to any of them.
"A light novelist who doesn't want to animate, doesn't that sound weird?" Kenjiro stared at Subaru. "For example, that guy Itsuki wants to be animated in his dreams. So in my opinion, there are only two possibilities. Either you are simply unwilling like Kaner Nayuta, or your ambition is relatively large. Form an animation company by yourself, and then animate your own works!"
"..."
After being silent for a while, Subaru suddenly smiled: "Ah—as expected of Mr. Editor, he understands us authors too well."
"Of course, I've been at the front line of manuscript urging all year round, and I've dealt with various authors countless times." Kenjiro was a little proud. "Then what do you think—"
"The second type." Subaru said with a smile. "However, Mr. Editor, you guessed wrong. The greater profit is only a small part of the reason. I mainly want to make this animation and I have the final say."
Kenjiro was a little dazed: "You have the final say—you mean, because you are the boss, your works can be adapted according to your own wishes?"
"That's it. Mr. Editor should know better than me. If it is handed over to those companies, it is inevitable that they will change it without the original author's wishes."
"It's not impossible to change it blindly, but what you said is true, animation will not completely follow the author's opinion. But I think those companies will completely listen to you, the author's opinion, based on your current sales. -"
"But there will inevitably be deviations, and my goal is to change 100% according to my wishes." Subaru shook his head.
In this way, the anime of the previous life can be restored 100%... Subaru added in his heart.Subaru has always maintained a sense of reverence for the things brought over, and he is unwilling to change them at will. Even if it is animated, it must be made exactly the same as in the previous life.
You get huge benefits through other people's things, so forget it if you don't appreciate it, and tamper with other people's brainchild at will?At least Subaru thought he couldn't do such a thing.
"...You are really, the strangest author I have ever seen." Kenjiro was silent for a while, and gave Subaru a strange look.
"Strange, isn't it?" Subaru laughed. "But it was just a little idea in my heart, but after the editor said, I suddenly had a lot of confidence in setting up an animation company. Thank you, editor. If it weren't for you, I would probably lose the copyright of the book. It's handed over."
Kenjiro gave Subaru a sideways look: "You are happy, how can I explain to the company when I go back?"
"Well, Mr. Editor, even if I agree to the animation, this novel is still in Dengeki Bunko. It's no different than working with those big companies."
"...Yeah, that's exactly what I said!" Kenjiro thought for a while, then suddenly slapped his head. "I'm so confused by you. In short, you want to agree to the animation after you set up your own animation company, right?"
"Yes, I should start to take action in the near future, but before that, please ask Mr. Editor to keep it secret for me."
"I know, it's all animated anyway, so my task is done. But just in case I ask, how do you plan to set up the company? Do you still have enough funds?"
"Uh—" Subaru's hand holding the cup froze, and his expression suddenly became weird.
"I said, it shouldn't be, you don't know anything about these..."
"Hey hey, Mr. Editor is really smart, he knows us authors too well, hahaha..." Subaru scratched his head and said in the same tone as before.
Boom!
Kenjiro softened his hand, and slammed his head directly on the table. As a result, his chin hit the coffee cup, and then——
Then I had a gorgeous experience of what it feels like to wash your face with a cup of coffee...
Chapter 176 Thor's Friends
"What's wrong with Subaru?" Luo Tianyi quietly moved to Thor's side and said while looking at Subaru.
"I don't know... I ran out early in the morning, and when I came back, I didn't speak, and just sat there." Thor folded his arms and didn't think of a reason to come out.
At this moment, Subaru didn't notice that Luo Tianyi and Thor were whispering about himself, and kept thinking about the content of the later conversation with Kenjiro in his mind.
"Setting up a company is not as easy as you might imagine. It is up to you, the account holder, to do everything by yourself, such as verifying your name, renting a house, writing the company's articles of association, engraving the seal, and getting the certificate from the bank. Moreover, strictly speaking, you are not yet an adult. You need to be accompanied by your guardian. In general, forming a company is not only about money, but also various processes.”
"Wait, editor, speak slowly, let me take notes..."
"...And, forming a company is only the first step."
"Ah, this is the first step?!"
"Of course, otherwise, do you think starting a company is the same as a child's play house? You are now stepping into society!"
"Okay, you go on."
"After that, your company is just an empty shell, and you still need to recruit people. I don't need to explain more about this."
"This, sounds troublesome..."
"Otherwise? Do you really think it's a child's play house, making a mud pile and declaring that this is your home?"
"Uh--"
"However, there is another way."
"Acquisition?"
"Huh? You know."
"After all, I have this idea, I know a little bit about it before..."
"Then it's easy to handle. The second way is to acquire an existing company. This depends on how much start-up capital you can spend—"
"In terms of funds, I can take out all the money that "Spring Things" has earned."
"Hiss—Subaru, you have quite a penny, after all, do you know how much money you're making now?"
"I didn't pay much attention to..."
"...I should say you have a big heart—or..."
"Anyway, I'm a member of the industry after all. I'll find out for you after I get back. Of course, the decision is up to you. I'm just helping you as a reference."
Subaru's last memory stays in Kenjiro saying these words, and then with a helpless expression of "this guy is really hopeless", he twisted his briefcase and walked out of the coffee shop...
"Well, it's useless to think too much, let's wait for the good news from Mr. Editor." Subaru stretched and leaned lazily on the sofa.
Seeing that Subaru seemed to have thought it through, Thor walked over: "Hey, Subaru, what were you thinking just now?"
"It's nothing, it's just a matter of work."
"Oh..." Thor nodded half-understanding. Anyway, Miss Dragon Maid's contact with human society is only limited to schools and markets.
"Well, I have something to tell you." Thor said hesitantly, seeing Subaru looking at him curiously, Thor paused, and then said: "It was the last time I went back there. After the world, my friends heard that I plan to stay in this world, so they all came to our house to see my current situation, that..."
"Huh? So, is your friend coming to our house as a guest?" Subaru widened his eyes, looking very happy. "That's a good thing! It's okay, come if you want, and save your friends from worrying about you. After all, they must have thought you were dead before, and they were sad for a long time."
Hearing what Subaru said, Thor nodded happily: "Yes! Thank you, Subaru!"
"Haha, there's nothing to thank for that. When will your friend come over?"
"Oh, they're here!"
"……Eh?"
"Hey hey, sorry—" Thor scratched his head. "I just found out that they have come, so..."
