Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   Chapter 571 Being targeted

   The next day, Po Island officially signed a contract with the studio and became the second original artist in the art department.

  It was still a conference room, and Kato Yusuke gathered everyone together and started to discuss the game plan.

  The participants included Hasumi Kanoko, Ying Lili, Shi Yu, Megumi, Hashima Dekai, and An Yilun.

  Because the issues involved today are not suitable for outsiders to participate, Yusuke Kato did not inform Iori Hashima, and the other party did not ask more questions.

   As for whether Po Island will go to sea and disclose the content of the meeting to her brother after the event...

   Hasumi Kanoko has asked her to sign a non-disclosure agreement in advance, and it also explains the seriousness of the relevant issues. If the studio causes losses, she will retain the right to be held accountable.

  Under such a premise, Po Island naturally knew the importance of going to sea, and made a promise on the spot that he would never reveal even a single word, so there was no need to worry.

"So-"

   Kato Yusuke looked around, "Everyone should have seen the script, right? If you have any questions, you can ask them."

   "In that case..."

   Unusually, Hui took the lead and raised a hand, "Can I start first?"

   Kato Yusuke was a little surprised, but nodded immediately, "...Well, okay, then Megumi will talk first."

   "Thank you, that, what should I say?"

   The girl looked at him and asked, "As an immature production, I would like to ask, how long is the production cycle of our game?"

   "About this..."

   Kato Yusuke pondered for a moment: "My expectation is that the game will be released in COMI next year, that is, around mid-August."

   "—Mid-August??"

  Eriri called out, "Wait a minute, Yusuke, isn't that only eight months left?"

   "That's right, don't you have confidence?"

   "Isn't that kind of a problem? Are you serious? You must know that in the script you gave, there are hundreds of CGs for the plot alone. How long do you think it will take to draw it!"

   Aside from the backgrounds and materials that will be outsourced, the number of original paintings and CGs that require automatic brushes is roughly between 300 and 400, and there are also standing paintings of various characters…

   Thinking of all these things falling on her head, Eri Ri could not help but feel a tingling in her scalp.

  After all, the original painting is different from the comics, and it takes a considerable amount of time to craft it.

   As for the quality of a Galgame work, almost 80% of the factors are related to art, and it is self-evident how natural the pressure is.

   "You missed something, Sawamura."

   Beside Shi Yu casually reminded.

   "If the goal is next year's summer COMI, then at least one month of dubbing time must be reserved, so the corresponding time must be subtracted."

   "Ah, so, there is also the program here."

  An Yi Lun also added: "Including the later test running and bug elimination, I think it will take about half a month to a month..."

   "—That's only six months!" Ying Lili couldn't help but get a little crazy.

   "Do you need to make such a fuss? Sawamura."

  Shi Yu said calmly: "Do you think that you are the only one who is busy with work? I have to write a detailed script for over 60 hours of play time by myself."

   has one meaning inside and out - complain less.

  Eriri didn't care about being angry with her, but just said to Yusuke Kato with an unacceptable face: "Anyway, that kind of thing can't be done, Yusuke!"

  Lian sees Kanako looking at their reactions, and takes the initiative to maintain order, "Okay, everyone, don't be noisy, anyway, let's hear what Kato-kun has to say first?"

   Except for one person, everyone's impression of Hasumi Kanoko is still more or less on the teacher, so they subconsciously calmed down.

   Kato Yusuke looked at everyone, and everyone looked at him.

"all in all…"

   He said: "You don't have to worry too much about the workload, Yingri, I will handle it then, and she will also assist you when you go to sea."

   "...even if you say so."

   Ying Lili grunted and glanced at the opposite side, "She doesn't have the freedom to switch the style of painting like you, and I don't know how long it will take to unify the style."

   "That, Sawamura-senpai, please don't worry... I'll work hard!" Hashima squeezed his arms vigorously to ensure that his slightly raised chest was choppy because of this.

  Pooh~

   "Ugh...!" Yingri groaned, looking away a little hurt, not wanting to speak.

   "And Shiyu-senpai."

   Kato Yusuke turned his head to look at Shi Yu, "If you think you can't write all the plots alone, we can also take out the plots of some characters and outsource them to..."

   "—No need."

   The girl interrupted his words with a soft voice, an intriguing smile appeared on her beautiful face, and she looked back at him with a pair of beautiful burgundy eyes.

   "Have you forgotten? When I wrote "Love Festival" at a rate of one volume a week, now I have more time to finish the book. The most important thing is..."

   She paused, her brows and eyes slightly curved in a seductive arc, and then she chanted the second half of the sentence.

   "Let others meddle in Yu-chan's script or something... I don't want it, after all, this is the crystallization between the two of us, right~?"

  “…?”

   Kato Yusuke paused for a moment, then lowered his head slightly, pretending to be calm, coughed, and whispered back that he knew.

   Not only him, but even the others present were taken aback by Shi Yu's bold and ambiguous remarks, and stared at her with their mouths open.

  An Yi Lun: (Д)

  Bo Island goes to sea: (*/ω＼*)

  English Pear: (*｀へ*)

   Hui: (ì_í)

The    scene subtly falls into silence.

   Turning a blind eye to everything around her, Shi Yu just stretched lazily, revealing her sleek and graceful body curves.

   Hasumi Kanako sighed inwardly.

   In terms of expressing her intentions, basically no one, including herself, can be braver than Shi Yu.

  'I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup this little villain gave others to make Xiaoshi so determined...'

   she thought aimlessly, then laughed again. After all, even she herself is one of them, so how can she be qualified to make irresponsible remarks about others?

"…So."

   Kato Yusuke cleared his throat, "Apart from these, do you have any other questions?"

   was quiet, as if thinking.

   Seeing that no one was talking, Po Island went out to sea and raised a hand happily, "I, I, I have a problem~!"

   "Going to sea? What's wrong?"

   "Ah, it's not a big deal, I just want to say, this script is really amazing~! I really, really, really want to play this game!"

   As the energetic voice spread, the atmosphere in the room seemed to become lively.

   "Ahaha, anyway, calm down first and go to sea."

  An Yilun also said in a familiar tone: "However, it's not that I can't understand your mood. When I first discovered this project, I thought it would definitely sell well if it was made into a game!"

   "Huh, was this project discovered by Lunya-senpai?"

   "Of course. You may be surprised when you say it. Kato, he clearly had such a great script at the time, but he had no intention of making a game at all. Later, it was because of my persistent efforts to persuade him that he finally made up his mind."

"real-!?"

  Hashima went out to sea with a face full of admiration, "That means, is it that Senior Lun Ye is actually the director of this game? Senior is amazing~!"

"Uh…?"

   Hearing this, An Yilun was also dumbfounded, not knowing how to respond.

   He wanted to deny it, but as soon as he met the girl's admiring eyes, he couldn't help but look away with a guilty conscience, and finally said vaguely.

"...Well, you have to know that there is no distinction between positions, go overseas. Even a director must bow his head when facing the original artist of the signature... So whether it is a producer or a director is not that important, do you understand? "

   "I see... I still don't quite understand it, but since the senior said it, it must be right~!"

   "...going to sea...you guy, really..."

   Facing the innocent face of Bo Island going to sea, An Yi Lun was also moved beyond measure, and then heard such a sentence in the next second.

   "For the sake of inner vanity, you even lied to middle school students. You really belong to you, classmate Ethics." Shi Yu said with a look of contempt, puncturing his lie.

   "Um... Shi, Shi Yu-senpai... My chest hurts...!" An Yi Lun, who was deeply hit, also clutched his chest, showing a heart-wrenching expression.

   "Senior...!" Po Island quickly ran up to the sea with concern, "Are you all right? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

   "...Uh, nothing. So what, going to sea... Actually, I'm neither a producer nor a director, sorry for disappointing you..."

   "It's alright, Senior Lun. Even if you're not the director, you must be working hard in your own way, right? So I trust you~"

  “…”

   Seeing that not only was he not affected at all, but he also comforted An Yilunya's wave island going to sea, Shi Yu couldn't help but put her hand between her brows and shook her head gently.

   "...No way, this girl has been corrupted to the point of hopelessness, so you should be friends for life."

  …

  An Yilun also quietly raised his head and glanced at the seat next to Shi Yu.

   I saw Yingli Li, who had been very noisy before, but now it was unusually quiet. Not only did he not find fault with him, he didn't even follow suit when Shi Yu taunted him.

   The other party just sat there with a cold expression, indifferent to what happened to him.

  —That's a state that Ahn Yee-lun is also very familiar with.

   The two of them had been in this state for six years, but recently they have finally gotten along a little bit, and as a result, they seem to have returned to the pre-liberation state again.

  ‘What is that guy doing…? ’

  An Yilun also slandered in his heart, and couldn't help feeling extremely unhappy.

   Mainly because of Yingri's current attitude, it seems to be denying their recent relationship, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

   However, he actually expected such a situation for a long time, and he also regretted it a little.

   More specifically, since the two broke up yesterday and returned home, he has regretted it.

  —After all, he still needs to rely on each other now!

  Even though Yingri's temper is a little worse, he is the only person in this group who is willing to speak for him.

   However, he was swept away by anger at the time, and he didn't say a few smooth words, which made the other party look like he was about to break up with him.

  If it was the past, if we broke up with friends, it would be no big deal. Everyone just went their separate ways...

  —but now it is absolutely impossible!

   You must know that his status in this studio is inherently low. It was because of Yingri's help that he was able to join in the first place. Once the two of them broke off completely...

  ‘Isn’t my status about to fall to the bottom, and I might even be swept out of the house like rubbish? ? ’

  An Yi Lun, who wanted to understand this truth, didn't sleep well last night, so he had to watch the animation all night under the quilt.

  Although there is now a lover who listens to him more and has joined the studio, but as a newcomer, Bo Island goes to sea, after all, he is very quiet and can't help him in many aspects.

  An Yi Lun also thought about it, and felt that he still couldn't let such a thing happen.

   "Who wants to serve that kind of arrogant and despicable betrayer? Go away."

  ↓

   "Forget it, the rice bowl matters, the rice bowl matters."

   From the anger at the front to the calmness at the back, the change in mentality is so smooth and comfortable.

  Although he was a little unwilling and helpless, he decided to apologize.

   After all, he is the man who will shock the industry in the future, how could he be stumped here?

  ‘When you find someone who is not there, just apologize to that guy. ’

   An Yilun also secretly decided.

  Other people didn't pay attention to the psychological changes on his side, and they were all discussing game production with you and me.

   At this moment, a light whimper suddenly sounded.

   "...that, everyone."

   Confused and embarrassed, Megumi took out her mobile phone and turned the screen to everyone.

   "Sorry to interrupt you, but Yusuke seems to have been targeted on the Internet."

  As the sound spread, the conversation in the room suddenly stopped.

   "You said Yu-chan was targeted...?"

   "Show me your phone! Megumi."

   Shiyu and Eiri, who were close, put their heads together.

   "Cartoon artist Fujimoto... His drawing skills are terrible, he only shows off gimmicks... Sooner or later he will be eliminated...?"

  Eriri read out the contents of the screen intermittently, and finally raised her head and said something.

   "Isn't this the common gangster on the Internet? You don't need to pay attention to this kind of person, Megumi."

   "Let's not talk about other things, this time Sawamura is right."

   Shi Yu sat upright with a dull face and took over the topic.

   "As an ordinary person, Kato-san may not know very well, but as long as creators encounter this kind of thing, we are used to it, and you should try to get familiar with it as soon as possible."

   "That's right! Yingri and Shiyu-senpai are right. Even the comments I wrote for "Love Festival" in my blog, there are such people."

  An Yilun also echoed: "For example, some guys bombarded with first impressions before reading the book, and some people will deliberately release false information to mislead readers or spoilers."

   Being evoked bad memories by these specific descriptions, Shi Yu's brows showed a bit of annoyance, and she folded her arms around her chest.

"That's right…

   Even if I read it to the end, I can understand what I meant when I wrote it, but there are always people who complain that the plot in the middle is poor or boring, and even spread rumors to instill negative impressions on people who haven’t read it yet.

   Just because he wants to attract attention, he sacrifices writers who work hard to create stories. If only that kind of people could be wiped out from the world...! "

   "Uh...Although I totally agree, please pay attention to the tone and volume, senpai?" An Yilun also said weakly.

   Affected by Shi Yu's heartfelt remarks, everyone smiled wryly and didn't know what to say.

   Until then, Megumi, who had been ignored for a long time, was free to express herself.

   "...Well, I understand what everyone means, and I also understand that as creators, you also have a very difficult side, but this matter doesn't seem to be that simple. You can find out by opening your Twitter."

   She changed her breath gently, her tone a little serious.

   "After all, the person who targeted Yusuke on the Internet seems to be a well-known creator."

"""""what?"""""

   Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

"creator?"

   Kato Yusuke frowned slightly.

  …
