I Teach Kendo in Tokyo Chapter 20: Let’s work part-time, Master Jianhao!

Before the next review, 24 working days, a total of 480,000 yen!

And Ma was speechless, although this amount of money was not enough to fill the huge financial gap Chiyoko just showed him, but it was also enough to greatly ease the economic situation of the Kiryu family.

Even if Chiyoko didn't speak, he would still take the job.

Okada Koji continued: "We have prepared the title of series director for you, what do you think?"

Okada Koji had a good relationship with Kazuma before, and they used "you" to address each other. At this time, they changed their honorific titles, probably to match the title of Director Xiu.

He Ma: "Yes, that's fine."

Actually, he doesn't care about the title at all, as long as he pays the money to call him anything.

It's okay to call the sweeper.

"Then, come and hang out with us after school tomorrow." Akito Anno's name for Kazuma hasn't changed, "It's not good if the things you come up with always fail the deliberation of the production committee."

He Ma glanced at Akira Anno and said, "Okay, let's use 24 days to make something that those fat-headed and big-eared guys can understand, but that is artistically worthy of our conscience."

Akino Anno had to be worthy of his conscience when he heard about art, and immediately came to his spirit: "Okay, that's it."

**

The next day, Kazuma went straight to Okada Koji's company after class.

Tamazao went with her because the revised version of the book passed the review.

Okada Koji's company is a five-story building. From the outside, it can't be seen that it is a place where the real money of investors is being burned.

The front desk on the first floor was empty, not even a little **** duty. The elevator next to the information desk didn't even tear off the wrapping paper of Sileng Heavy Industry.

He Ma guessed that this group of people found it troublesome to go up the stairs, so they used the investor's money to build an elevator, and it was just enough to use it now, and I didn't take care of it carefully at all.

He Ma pressed the elevator button and the door opened.

Not even the plywood is removed in the elevator - the main function of this kind of plywood is to protect the metal box inside the elevator during construction and prevent it from being scratched. Generally, the board is removed at the end of the construction, and the smooth and beautiful metal can be directly exposed. inner wall.

But people just didn't dismantle it, so they used it like this, highlighting a lazy word.

After the elevator doors closed, Kazuma pressed the button for the fourth floor.

When Koji Okada introduced yesterday, he said that the second and third floors are mainly where the painting team works, the fourth floor is where the original artists work, and the fifth floor is where senior positions such as supervisors and art directors work. .

It can only be said that it is a company established by the Japanese, with a clear hierarchy.

At the same time as the elevator went up, Yuzao spoke up: "If the funds of the dojo are really unable to turn around, I can introduce you to the underground bank."

"Usually you should lend me money directly here, right?"

"Although our wagashi shop in Jinguji Temple is a century-old shop, it is a small business, and we don't have that much money to lend." Tamamo said with a smile, "That's why I want to make money by publishing a book."

I believe you a ghost, the wealth that you have accumulated over the years, you thousand-year-old fox spirit, I am afraid that there are piles of gold bars buried in the ground of your home!

Tamazao: "No, the wealth I amassed, in order to see more of the outside world and the possibility of seeing more human beings, so I took it out to restore it."

Is that so!

He Ma was about to complain about Yuzao when the elevator door opened, and when the door opened, someone shouted, "Oops, my energy drink is finally here!"

Then and Ma heard someone trotting over.

The man reached the elevator door, and before he looked inside, he said, "Energy drink, hurry up, I'm waiting to relieve fatigue... eh, are you two?"

He Ma carefully observed the man, with a slightly chubby figure, wearing a pair of glasses, a plaid shirt on his upper body, and a pair of colorless toad mirrors-now intellectuals, regardless of liberal arts and sciences, are almost dressed like this.

At this time, Koji Okada appeared: "Oh, Miss Jinguji is also here, great, our main beauty is just doing some Japanese-style designs, just invite Miss Jinguji to see it together."

Jinguji Tamamo smiled and said, "I'm not very skilled in Japanese art, so I probably can't give much help."

He Ma subconsciously broke down next to him: "You have danced Japanese dance for three hundred years..."

"That was the refusal of the invitation of the Japanese Dance Association. It happened half a year ago, how do you remember it?"

It's not just me that Ma Xin wants to remember. Your statement has become an urban legend of the University of Tokyo.

Okada Koji: "Anyway, please... oh yes, this is our concept design, Kunikida-kun from Musashino Art Academy."

Kunikita bowed slightly to Kazuma: "For the first time, you are that Kiryu Kazuma, right? Can you actually perform ninjutsu?"

He Ma looked blank: "Now?"

"Yes... uh no! I can do it when I have time. I will be responsible for drawing the concept art of cyber ninjutsu."

He was speechless with the horse, then turned back and kicked the wall, and the man was attached to the elevator ceiling, sticking to the corner like a spider.

Kunikita exclaimed, "Oh, that's great, you can't see your position at all, Mr. Kiryu, from the outside!"

And the horse calmly landed.

Kunikida is still muttering to himself: "So it is, it is simple and conforms to the laws of physics, but it can achieve the same effect as ninjutsu, wow, this kind of ninjutsu is comparable to those in the Koga ninja post. God's ninjutsu is so much cooler! I feel inspired!"

While muttering, he turned and flew back to his place.

Kawama asked Koji Okada worriedly, "Are all the people you recruited like this?"

"Yes, they are a little weird, but they are definitely talented." Okada Koji showed a proud expression, "We have formed probably the most talented team in the history of Japanese animation."

Looking at his confident appearance, He Ma had a vague premonition that the animations made by this group of people on this world line would probably follow the old path of Wang Li's Universe Army.

——Forget it, who cares about them, anyway, I'm here to earn food for 24 days, and I'll leave after earning.

"Let me show you two about our working environment." Okada Koji said with a "please this way" gesture.

He Ma just got out of the elevator.

Tamazao followed halfway up to him.

He Ma has visited domestic animation studios in his lifetime, and the impression is that there are a lot of computers, the kind with electronic drawing boards.

But now there is no such advanced equipment, Okada Koji and the others look like a large studio.

Kunikida-kun, who just got inspiration from Kazuma, is now sitting in front of a large drawing board, holding a brush and drawing something quickly.

Akito Anno is sitting in front of a machine that looks like a teaching slide projector he's seen in his entire life when he was in school.

It is the kind of machine that has a backlight to illuminate the film with the title and blackboard written on it, and then reflects it on a screen with a mirror.

The machine's backlight is on, and the white light casts the pattern on the film placed on the machine onto Anno's face.

Okada Koji led Hema and Tamamo to his side and patted him on the shoulder: "Mr. Kiryu is here, along with Miss Jinguji."

Akito Anno turned his head to look, nodded and said hello, and then said to Okada Koji: "I suddenly had a wonderful idea yesterday, you see we put the main characters in the 112th to 140th squares. Would the characters be more expressive if they were changed like this?"

Akito Anno picked up a dozen films he had set aside, loaded it into a hand crank, and placed it on the backlight.

As he turned the handle, the film in the device began to flip at a constant speed, and the characters drawn on the film moved.

He Ma opened his mouth wide. When he visited the animation studio in his last life, he also demonstrated how to make the animation move, but it was demonstrated with a computer.

This is the first time I've seen a hand-cranked demo and a horse.

Okada Koji leaned over to look at it: "Indeed...it seems to be smoother, what do you think of Kiryu-sensei?"

He Ma: "I remember the demo clip you gave me yesterday. This scene should be a scene with a lot of furniture and debris?"

"Yes." Anno Akto asked suspiciously, "What's wrong? Do you think too many elements in the scene affect the visual expression?"

And the horse shook his head.

No, I think you didn't take advantage of the props in the scene.

He Ma: "I'll show you a quick demonstration. Do you have a place with a lot of clutter and furniture?"

Okada Koji: "Yes, we have the equipment on the second floor, but we haven't recruited animators yet. The entire first floor is just set up with workstations, and no one is there."

He and Ma were both shocked. These people really don't take investors' money as money. No matter how many animators there are, they should prepare the equipment in the workplace first.

"You don't have an animator, so how did you get the demo you showed us?" Kazuma asked in surprise.

"That's fine as long as the original artist draws the middle frame." Akio Anno waved his hand, "It's just a little effort."

He Ma glanced at the film still in the hand-cranked device in front of him, thinking that it might really be a casual drawing for this guy.

Okada Koji: "Anyway, let's go to the second floor to demonstrate? A small part of the third floor has been opened, and a few animators are starting to work today."

He Ma: "Okay, just go to the second floor. It might break a little - I mean break some stools or something."

Okada Koji: "It's fine, I'll just buy a chair or something."

He Ma nodded, and then said to Tamamo, "I'll ask you to come play with me later and play the bad guy."

"Is it okay to embroider my feet?" Tamao asked with a smile.

"Of course, if you have any idea."

So Tamamo nodded: "Then leave it to me."

Akito Anno clapped his hands: "Everyone! Our supervisor is going to show us ninjutsu, stop what he is doing first, and go to the second floor to observe it together! Who, go to the fourth floor and let the original artists stop doing it. , all go down to the second floor to watch the play."

He Ma next to him with a wry smile: "It's not ninjutsu, it's just a demonstration of some indoor fighting skills."

"Anything will do." Anno Akto urged, "Let's go."

**

When Kiryu and Ma and Tamamo went down to the second floor, the entire company gathered.

He Ma heard someone exclaiming: "It's really Kiryu and Maye!"

He glanced at the crowd, and effortlessly found the young man in his early twenties who exclaimed—no, he is less than twenty years old now, so he can't call someone in his twenties a young man.

Should be called Big Brother...

He Ma introduced himself to everyone: "Yes, I am that Kiryu Kazuma, and today I will show you how to deal with a superior number of enemies in such a complex indoor environment full of debris."

As soon as I finished talking to Ma, someone raised their hand and asked, "Mr. Kiryu, did you really teach Miss Fujii?"

——As expected, the topic turned to Mikako again.

Akino Anno raised his face: "Now we are still working during working hours, and chatting can wait for lunch break."

He Ma waved his hand: "There's nothing you can do if you're curious. Yes, Mikako Fujii is my apprentice."

"So those predictions she made were actually your predictions?" Another asked.

He Ma said in his heart, "Yes, it's my prediction", but he replied: "I am just a kendo teacher of Mikako Fujii. Although I often discuss with her about international relations, I have never taught her anything. I'm from the University of Tokyo Law School, and international relations is not my area of ​​expertise."

The person who just asked the question immediately asked again: "So Ms. Fujii is really smart?"

He Ma seemed to deny the issue for the first time, but that might lead to Mikako being expelled from school.

After she dropped out of school, she probably stayed at the Kiryu Dojo all day long.

As far as Mikako's appetite is concerned, if she becomes the proprietress of the dojo, she and Ma will not be able to support her.

After all, there is already an edible Qingliu.

But Jean and Ma touted the monkey with unconscionable conscience, but he refused, so after struggling for a while, Hema replied: "Mikako has a very bright mind, but he doesn't like to use his brain, and he doesn't like to study. /

"You have seen her performance as a guest on some talk shows recently, and you may have found it.

"Sometimes she's very methodical, at other times she acts like a headless fly, winning by unstructured sophistry.

"This is caused by her knowledge reserve. She only remembers the things she said when discussing with us. Except for those things, she usually does not take the initiative to learn by herself.

"Once she exceeds her knowledge base, she starts ramming around."

After saying this, Kazuma was a little proud: neither would cause Mikako to be exposed and drop out of school, and she didn't exaggerately praise her.

In fact, what He Ma said is basically true except that he did not admit that all the predictions were made by him.

This should not make Mikako's inflated reputation even higher!

He was complacent, and the person who asked the question sighed: "So that's the case, so her wonderful counterattacks on various shows are all based on eagerness and wisdom!"

Huh?

He Ma frowned involuntarily, realizing that things were not simple.

"Ms. Fujii is indeed a very smart lady." Another sighed.

Huh? ?

The third person was speechless: "Sure enough, Yamato Nadeko in the new era should be like this."

New age... eh?

Just her?

He Ma was so embarrassed that at this time Okada Koji stepped in and said, "Let's have Kiryu supervise the demonstration as soon as possible, and you can ask about other things when you have the opportunity to ask later, Kiryu superintendent will work with us. Twenty-four days."

He Ma also cleared his throat: "Yes, please give me more advice in the next 24 days. Next, I will show you hand-to-hand combat in a complex environment. First, there are many enemies. Does anyone sign up for the role? A villain combatant?"

A group of animated youths looked at each other, and then one of them raised his hand and asked, "Is there such a shameful line to read?"

"No, you can use any method you can think of to besiege me. Miss Jinguji will do it with you."

Several people raised their hands immediately upon hearing that Tamamo would also act.

So a temporary villain team was formed.

They surrounded Kazuma, all with mops and brooms from the cleaning tool room on this floor.

Hema: "Come on!"

Tamazao acted first, and Kazuma immediately performed Jack Chen's table-turning dodge.

Everyone onlookers made an "oh" sound.

Conceptual designer Kunikida-kun exclaimed loudly: "Is this the so-called Mudun in ninjutsu?"

No, it's not! Don't explain it blindly!

The character and artist Yuzhi Sadamoto, who has been silent for a while next to Kunikida, shook his head: "No, this should be a 'substitution technique'."

You wait for me!

He Ma lost his mind for a moment and was almost stabbed in the face by a mop. He flashed past the mop and grabbed the hem of the man holding the mop.

"It's cocooning!" Sadamoto exclaimed.

Enough is enough! In this way, Jack Chen is going to become a master of ninjutsu!

Hey, wait a minute, he is indeed a ninjutsu master in a sense...

At this time, the guys who played combatants saw Kazuma responding in this novel way, and they obviously became playful and had a strong desire to attack.

He Ma also had to move around in earnest, and there was no time to complain about the two people who were next to explain.

A minute later, four combatants came to make up the count, one was hung on the coat rack, the other was pressed down into the vat containing copy paper, the other was photographed on the photocopier, and the photocopying was started. Ji Zheng spat out the video and audio pictures of his embarrassed side face one by one. The last shirt was lifted and tied, and he has not yet broken free, and is standing there writhing.

Only Tamamo, standing by the side like nothing else—she just got up and left the warring circle.

Kawama: "Did you see it? In this complex terrain, you must use everything at hand to fight."

The crowd applauds.

The one on the coat rack applauded and said, "Well, can you get me down first and then summarize the statement?"

The man in the copy-paper bucket kicked his leg in agreement.

Okada Koji: "Go and help them, today you are all a work-related injury, go to the finance department to receive a work-related injury allowance."

The voice didn't fall, and Ayato clapped his hands: "I understand!"

Kawama looked at Akira Anno: "What do you understand?"

"This kind of battle is art in itself!"

Akito Anno clenched his fists with both hands: "We can convince most people as long as we express this cool battle with animation, just like I am convinced by this artistic battle now!

"So we should simplify the plot, or even just fragment it into the whole play, and use the main space to show the cool battles! Then those who are convinced by the battles will study and go Discover the hidden story!"

Kazuma looked at Akira Anno - this guy seems to be getting further and further away from Hideaki Anno in his previous life.

Is EVA no longer born?

Akito Anno bowed to Kazuma: "Thank you for your guidance, I'm going back to work."

"Ah, oh, good." Kazuma nodded with a complicated expression on his face.

To be honest, it would be a bit of a pity if EVA would never be born, after all, I have loved this movie for the rest of my life.

Even if he was given such a big mouthful in the old theatrical version of "For You", he still loves EVA.

Forget it, if the ruffians of this world line won't be creating EVA, then—then let me create it!

Hey, a little happy?

Kawama tried his best to hide the smile on his lips and said to Okada Koji, "I'm sorry for making such a mess on your second floor."

"It's fine, it's much less destructive than I imagined." Okada Koji waved his hand, and then said to everyone, "Okay, I've read it all, let's go back to work. There are 24 more until the next deliberation meeting. God, make sure to come up with a passable demo!"

The crowd responded with a mixed, feeble response: "Understood."

He Ma wanted to yell at these slackers for a moment: "No energy! You want to do animation so quietly?"

However, doing so may have the opposite effect. After all, most of the literature and art in this era are left-handed and hate the old navy.

These people are all young people, and they are basically college students who have experienced the student movement.

As everyone started to walk up the stairs in twos and threes, Sadamoto Yuyuki and Kunikida pulled another young man who didn't know Ma to him.

Sadamoto Yuzhi said first: "This is our painting supervisor Kazuma Tsurumaki. He is also part-time color designator. He has some questions about the color of the work."

As soon as Ma and Ma knew who this time-space equivalent was, they took a few more glances.

While he was looking at it, Tsurumaki Kazuo also spoke: "The result of the discussion between Kiryu-sensei and Anno was that I don't like the overall use of dark and cold tones. I still prefer to use richer colors. ..."

He Ma: "Of course you can use rich colors. In fact, to highlight the contrast of 'high technology and low life', you need some bright colors to contrast with those dark and cold tones."

Hejuan and Gang looked puzzled: "High-tech should make people's lives better~IndoMTL.com~ How could it be possible to have a low-tech life?"

He Ma asked back: "Japan's economy is booming now, but isn't it the same where you can see homeless people everywhere?"

Homeless is the Japanese term for homeless people.

The crane roll and Gang were stunned.

He Ma added: "I know it's hard for you to fully understand all of a sudden, if you don't give me a way to let you see this contrast intuitively. Let Okada grant you a grant to travel to Hong Kong on business. , just look at the Kowloon Walled City next to Kai Tak Airport. Remember, don't enter the Walled City."

Okada Koji looked embarrassed: "He is the main painter on our side, and he is indispensable to the next meeting."

He Ma: "It's okay, just go there for four or five days and walk around the Kowloon Walled City. When you come back, you will know how to describe the cyberpunk world."

Hejuanhe Gang looked embarrassed: "Hong Kong speaks Cantonese, I don't know."

Hema: I will! I can be your guide!

Before he could say these words, Tamamo spoke up: "Two courses are completed this week, you don't want any credits?"

He scratches his head with the horse.

Tamazao continued: "Also, you don't even have a passport, do you? After all, our high school is not the kind of school that will go to Hawaii on a school trip, so there is no good thing to help you with the passport."

Kawama whispered to himself, even if our high school trip was going to Hawaii, I wouldn't be able to pay for the trip.

At this time, Okada Koji made a decision: "Since Mr. Kiryu said so, then I will find a friend who understands Cantonese to lead the way. You can go to Tsurumaki. You can cut wood by sharpening your knife."

Have a sour teeth next to Ma - ah ah, you can drink morning tea when you go to Hong Kong!

I haven't had morning tea in over a year!
