In January, it has already snowed here in the Magic City.

The streets were covered in silver, and pedestrians put on thick cotton clothes.

For Chu Yu, a lot of things happened in the past December. Puella Magi Madoka Magica ended, but at the same time, the rebellious Lelouch officially started the animation production process, and he also broke up with Xuangui for two years.

He then formally cooperated with Tianji Comics. As expected, he will serialize Jojo's Bizarre Adventure in Tianji Comics for at least the next year.

And in January, although Chu Yu's thoughts were recently disrupted by Huang Ming's impromptu travel proposal, Jojo was not serialized until after the Chinese New Year, and Puella Magi Madoka Magica's theatrical version was not aired until March.

But that doesn’t mean that the Dragon Kingdom animation industry in January has nothing to do with him.

At least by mid-January, Initial D and Natsume's Book of Friends have officially come to an end.

Originally, after two comics of this level were completed, some fans were not allowed to come over to hold some sort of completion party. However, because of Chu Yu's running away, Xuan Turtle had no intention of holding such an event.

Also happy to get the pure fruit

At the same time, on January 4th, the Initial D animation produced by T-Bone Animation will be broadcast soon.

After experiencing the rise of Puella Magi Madoka Magica in the winter of 2022, Chu Yu is now a formidable presence in the Dragon Kingdom animation industry that 99% of animation companies are afraid of.

Many websites' predictions for Initial D's performance basically predict that it will be the spring animation overlord.

After all, the original comic is already so popular. Without animation and being serialized for just over a year, its single volume sales have reached an astonishing average of 2.4 million per volume.

For comics readers alone, it can bring a lot of popularity to this work. The author of the work, Shui Xin, not only has many fans in the comics industry, but also has even more fans in the animation industry. Many Shui Xin

Fans of Xin's animation heard that Initial D was Shui Xin's work and expressed their support.

In addition, the subject matter of this work is very clever. The Sandosai manga can be said to be about killing men, women, old and young. Many organizations predict that the Initial D animation will be a big hit after it is aired.

With the blessing of many elements, in the January animation alone, there are basically no animations that can compete with Initial D. However, it is not ruled out that there are some dark horse works mixed in, but the possibility is relatively small.

Of course, predictions are predictions. I guess Chu Yu can only wait until he comes back from playing to see what the specific situation will be.

After all, two days before Initial D was broadcast on January 4th, January 2nd was the day Chu Yu and his party set out.

There are twenty-three members of the studio, plus Huang Ming, Chu Yu, Gu Yan, and Li Xi, a total of twenty-seven people gathered together.

As for why Li Xi was there, that was Huang Ming's own decision. In order to thank Li Xi for introducing Chu Yu to him, he decisively called Li Xi and invited Li Xi to go with him.

Huang Ming was originally prepared to be rejected by Li Xi, but after hearing the specific situation, she decided to go along without thinking too much.

After all, she had been working for many years and had little time to rest and relax. The most important thing was that she didn't have any suitable friends to hang out with. Huang Ming's words might have made a little less sense, but it would not be a bad feeling if she went with Chu Yu.

Of course, there are some episodes in this. When Tang Xin heard that Li Xi and Chu Yu were going to visit the Japanese island together, he also clamored to go with him, but in the end, Li Xi stayed in the Magic City on the grounds of updating.

.

Huang Ming is quite familiar with things like traveling. Not only does he have many friends in China, but he even has a few good friends as far away as Hokkaido on the Japanese island of Japan, so everyone leaves him in charge of everything about the itinerary.

, just recognize it yourself and go play.

The group of people didn’t have any clear plans. Anyway, it only lasted for a week. If you go there and find it fun, you can play more and stay longer. If you don’t find it fun, you can change places. It’s quite casual.

When everyone gathered at the airport, everyone looked excited. Even Gu Yan was very familiar with the people in the studio. After all, she was familiar with everyone when she made 5 Centimeters Per Second and Voice of the Stars. Although it has been half a year since

She has not served as a voice actress in Chu Yu's works, but as one of the only two women who has a close relationship with the big boss Chu Yu, everyone has inexplicable respect for her.

After all, no one knows when she will become Chu Yu's girlfriend and their soon-to-be boss wife.

As for Li Xi, the only woman who has a close relationship with Chu Yu, no one dares to ignore it. Judging from the fact that after the big boss Chu Yu and Xuan Gui had a falling out, he asked her to go with him when traveling.

The relationship with the boss is definitely not simple.

Many people who thought too much even kept glancing back and forth between Gu Yan and Li Xi while waiting at the airport, wondering if this trip was the boss's trip to Shura Field. They could only do this in private with a few people.

When we got together to discuss, we sighed that the boss was confused!

Of course, it was completely impossible for Chu Yu to know that the members of his own animation studio, who he regarded as serious, diligent, hard-working and cute, viewed him this way, otherwise he would definitely let that guy pay half of his travel expenses.

After Gu Yan saw Chu Yu at the airport, he naturally came closer and chatted with Chu Yu on various topics.

Among them, there are many anecdotes about her good sister Xia Yin losing to Chu Yu in the winter animation battlefield and working hard to avenge her shame next time.

But in the end, the conversation between the two always deviated from the track and eventually returned to the game. This made Huang Ming, who was watching speechlessly, almost want to slap Chu Yu on the head. He couldn't help but feel for Gu Yan, who persisted for a year and still didn't give up.

sorrow.

But all in all, after landing at the Magic City Airport, as the plane circled, the huge city of Magic City gradually shrank and became farther away when viewed from the window.

"Looking at it this way, the Magic City is actually really big!"

Gu Yan turned his head towards the window, and his fair and beautiful side face showed no flaws even under the sunlight.

She looked at the scene outside the plane window and sighed,

After all, the plane had flown so high, but in Gu Yan's eyes, all the ground on the ground was filled with buildings from the Magic City.

"Well, yes, the Magic City is really big!" Chu Yu, who was sitting next to Gu Yan, withdrew his gaze.

It had been a long time since he had flown on an airplane, and he was not very used to the feeling of flying.

Thinking that it would take three hours to reach his destination, Hokkaido, he felt a little bored.

"By the way, Chu Yu, do you like the snowy sky?" Gu Yan next to him turned his head and asked suddenly.

"It's okay, I still like winter better than summer," Chu Yu thought for a while and replied.

"Maybe it's because my skin is thick. I am more tolerant of cold and not heat."

Gu Yan, who would never describe herself like this, smiled when she heard this, but she was used to the way she interacted with Chu Yu, so she was not surprised.

"That's good. If you don't hate snow, this season is perfect for you to go to Hokkaido. Although I have never been to Hokkaido, it is said that the snow scenery and hot springs there are very famous."

"Oh, by the way, speaking of this, Chu Yu, can you ski?" Gu Yan asked with a smile.

"No!" Chu Yu spread his hands.

How could he have time to learn these sports?

"What about you?" Chu Yu asked.

"As for me, there is a ski resort in my hometown. I have often gone there in winter since I was a kid."

Gu Yan responded, and then looked at Chu Yu. Although he was a little nervous, he still pretended to be nonchalant.

"When we get to our destination, if you want to learn, I can teach you!"

When Chu Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to respond.

To be honest, he was not very interested in the sport of skiing, mainly because he thought it was troublesome to learn and too dangerous. Watching those people on TV doing it was very cool, but Chu Yu, who was afraid of heights, only thought about climbing from the top of the mountain by himself.

There is a kind of resistance in the process of sliding down.

But at the same time, he also noticed the deep expectation hidden in Gu Yan's eyes.

The words of rejection were not spoken, but subconsciously, Chu Yu responded.

"OK!"

The next moment, the smile that bloomed on Gu Yan's face made Chu Yu feel his heart skip a beat, and then he looked away unnaturally.

Huang Ming, who had been listening attentively to the conversation between the two in the front row, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Brother Chu finally became normal this time and did not say anything about not being interested in skiing or that skiing was too dangerous.

When Li Xi, who was sitting in the back seat of Chu Yu, heard this, a slight smile appeared on her lips. She still remembered that she reminded Gu Yan to take the initiative, and there would be no chance of waiting for Chu Yu to take the initiative.

Now it seems that it is still effective. Chu Yu must have refused to learn skiing because he thought it was troublesome. How could he agree so readily?
