Chapter 161 Animated "Slam Dunk"

Although the Meiji basketball team can also enter the national competition, they lost to their former defeated player Donghai basketball team, which made them very depressed.

Hirota had imagined that he couldn't sleep all night last night. He thought about winning the qualifiers, bathing in the lights and enjoying the cheers of the audience.

But now, this cheer belongs to someone else.

Looking at Tori Akino Miyao on the scene, he didn't dare to come forward to sign.

Fengnan suppressed the sadness in his heart and invited his teammates to gather together to shake hands with the Donghai basketball team.

"We will definitely beat you in the national competition." Hirota said, and he took a last look at Higashino Sound and disappeared in the aisle.

Hirota made up his mind to win the national championship. By that time, he could also ask Tori Akino to sign.

...

Higashino Yoshi politely declined the dinner, said goodbye to Takehiko Zeemoto, took a look at the time, and called a taxi on the side of the road.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, I didn't encounter an empty car.

He was getting more and more irritable, and time was precious, and it was wasted here.

"It's time to take the driver's license exam," thought Higashino.

This is quite troublesome for him, because it takes a lot of time to waste.

The short-term accommodation system requires living in a driving school, so there is no way to work.

If the day system squeezes out half a day to practice driving every day every day, it will take about half a year.

This is a must.

Higashino Soto has driving experience, and it won’t take long to convert from a left rudder to a right rudder, but this cycle of driving practice left him speechless.

With this in mind, this year is almost over, and Dongye Xiang still does not have a driver's license test.

Without private cars, Dongye Xiang's life is becoming increasingly inconvenient.

More than ten minutes passed, and finally there was an empty car.

Higashino Soto talked about Shueisha's address.

What we are going to discuss is the animation of "Slam Dunk". After the editorial department has divided the interests, it has determined that the production company is Toei Animation.

The person who needs communication now is the original Bird Akinori.

If the agreement is made with him, then the animation of "Slam Dunk" can be promoted.

Sasaki was originally planning to visit Higashino Hokage with the producer and supervisor, but Higashino Hokage calculated the distance and time and simply made an appointment with him at Shueisha.

Along the way, Dongye Xiang thought for a long time.

In the last world, because Yuhiko Inoue decided to finish "Slam Dunk" after the National Competition, he had a little friction with Toei animation.

This little friction can actually be avoided on Dongye Xiang's side.

Higashino Shoto decided to make it clear in advance and let Toei make the decision.

If you can't tolerate the completion of popular works, don't make "Slam Dunk".

Before the serialization of "Slam Dunk", Inoue Shit is a pure newcomer and has no ability to negotiate with Shueisha.

Before Higashino Yoshiki serialized "Slam Dunk", he already had a huge influential work "Soul of Chess".

As a super popular author, he has an agreement with Kazuhiko Torishima to "complete the work".

Facing both the magazine and the author, the animation company that has not officially entered the market can naturally understand its position.

...

Higashino got off the taxi in a hurry, but found that Sasaki and his group were already waiting at the gate of Shueisha.

He quickly jogged over, "Sorry, I've been wasting time."

"We arrived early, and there are still ten minutes before the agreed time, which scares you, Mr. Torii."

One of the strangers said to Higashino Xiang.

Finally, he looked at Dongye Xiang with eager eyes.

This person was probably the supervisor, and Higashino Xiang quickly stretched out his hand: "Hello, I am Toriyo Miku, the author of "Slam Dunk."

"I'm Inoue Kaede," the other party shook hands with Hitoshino, "an employee of Toei Animation Production Company."

He handed Higashino a business card, which was indeed the title of supervisor.

"Go to the conference room," Sasaki said.

The wind outside in December was like a bone-squeezing knife. Looking at the trembling look of the crowd, Dong Yexiang felt guilty in his heart.

When he walked into the conference room, there was hot coffee on the table, Kazuhiko Torishima also came over. He held a decoration in his hand, looked into the conference room, and smiled with a hee.

Higashino Xiang quickly pulled him in. The things that had been agreed upon at the beginning were now the time to use them.

Unexpectedly, the Supervisor was not in a hurry at all. Inoue Kaede took out a single book and made Higashino's signature the top priority.

He looked at the signature book with satisfaction and carefully put it in his pocket.

"When I was a kid, I saw an animation "Da Idiot" on TV, which was a baseball comic created by Shinji Mizushima," said Inoue Kaede. "This animation deeply attracted me. It turns out that sports animation is so interesting."

In Higashino's eyes, Inoue Kaede said happily: "When I was in elementary school, I hoped that I could become a supervisor and produce a sports-themed cartoon."

"When I was in junior high school, I joined the basketball team. At that time, or now I am the same, I limited the word basketball before the sports theme."

"It's just that basketball comics are too rare, and original basketball animations are even more impossible to pass the company's plan. At this stage, I can only improve myself and have produced a lot of cartoons."

"For example, "The Three Sisters of the Cat-Eye" and "City Hunter" by Mr. Hojo."

Higashino Xiang looked at him in a daze, but he didn't expect that the "Three Sisters of Cat Eyes" that brought him impulse was the work of the man wearing glasses in front of him.

From this point of view, Inoue Kaede is indeed a senior supervisor.

"At the beginning of this year, I saw "Slam Dunk" on jump, which is similar to the painting style of Hojo Shi, with a realistic charm. This gave me a great surprise. I had a premonition that I was born for this work in the first half of my life."

"Teacher Torii Akino, please give me the "Slam Dunk" to me for production. I will work 100%!"

Not long after seeing Higashino Soon, the supervisor said such sincere words.

Higashino Shoto was moved and felt that he loved "Slam Dunk" even more than himself.

Moreover, Higashino Sho has a premonition that what this supervisor said is true.

He himself also has an artist's craftsmanship temperament, which is a type that can carefully polish the works and strictly require them.

Higashino opened his mouth and wanted to agree immediately.

It would be impolite to refuse his words.

At the last moment, Higashino Sho shut his mouth in the anticipated gaze of Inoue Kaede.

Suddenly, his eyes became lost.

Sasaki coughed and said the conditions of Toei Company.

The production funding is absolutely sufficient, and the work is broadcast on Asahi TV's prime time.

The promotion and distribution of "Slam Dunk" will be carried out using all channels at the same time.

As for the content of the work, employees with first-class capabilities are enabled.

Even outsourcing content will be strictly controlled.

What is presented to Higashino Xiang will be serious and attentive to the naked eye.

It is rare to Toei make such a promise, which shows their enthusiasm.

The main reason is that time is too important. Now it is the end of 1996 and the trough of jump. For Toei, there is no such thing as the gold-grabbing stone as "Dragon Ball".

Although "Dragon Ball GT" produced at the beginning of the year is also a popular work with an average viewership of 14%, after the completion of "Dragon Ball GT", there will be no animation works with Dragon Ball IP in a short period of time.

So Toei focused on "Slam Dunk". The previous treatment of "Dragon Ball" was completely acceptable.

Dongye Xiang was very satisfied with these quite attractive conditions.

The author himself, of course, hopes that the work can be treated well.

So he looked at Kazuhiko Toshima.

Kazuhiko Torishima was watching the fun, and the ornaments in his hands were tilted. At this time, with Higashino's gaze, everyone in the audience looked at him.

"???" Kazuhiko Toshima was confused.

But not long after, he understood Dongye Xiang's thoughts.

Although I felt that Dongye Xiang was worried, I still coughed twice and told the full agreement I had with Dongye Xiang.

"The jump's circulation exceeded 5 million, and Tori Akino has met his original requirements. Shueisha has not stopped him from completing the comics."

He said it here, just to tell Higashino Xiang that he would keep his promise.
