Chapter 420
Chapter 420 “Heartbeat House” Remake?
Monday, April 9.
In the morning, Takagi Makoto came to DOS and thought about a plan for the near future.
“Your Name” has been completed, and a lot of publicity resources will be invested in large-scale publicity soon.
However, what needs to be considered now is, what will the team that has just completed the production of “Your Name” do next?
Most of this production team comes from the production team of Takayama Sakurako, and only a small part is drawn from other production teams. Nowadays, Takagi Makoto has decided not to do animation anymore. Of course the people in this production team Where are you going back and forth.
In other words, what I have to consider now is what animation Takayama Sakurako will do next.
Should Takayama Sakurako continue to make the adaptation, or make an original animation, or, in other words, find a sequel from the previous animations?
He thought for a while, and finally decided to ask Takayama Sakurako’s opinion first.
However, he had just sent someone to call Takayama Sakurako for help, and suddenly heard a knock on the door, Uchida Chongichi unexpectedly came.
“President, let me tell you something.”
“what’s up?”
Takagi Makoto asked Uchida to sit down while gesturing with his hands.
“This year is 2018. Then, isn’t our DOS established in 2003? We did not engage in commemorative activities at the fifth anniversary, and at the tenth anniversary, we still did not engage in commemorative activities. Now it is the 15th anniversary, shouldn’t we do? A wave of commemorations?” Uchida asked, considering it.
Takagi was stunned for a moment.
If you think about it carefully, it really is.
DOS was indeed established in 2003, but he only crossed over in 2006, so I never thought about it.
In fact, it was not necessary for the fifth anniversary, but there should be a wave of activities on the 10th anniversary, because he had never thought about this, so he did not do it in 13 years.
At that time in 13 years, Uchida was just a production manager after all. It is probably not a good idea to tell him about this. Now he is a producer. In theory, his position is second only to Takagi Makoto, and he is also a DOS veteran. People at the top level have already come when the company was founded, so it’s not surprising that they would want to talk to Takagi Makoto about this.
As his thoughts turned, Takagi Makoto asked, “Do you have any ideas for the 15th anniversary commemorative event?”
“There is an idea.”
Uchida rushed a little and nodded, “Look, our DOS is now one of the well-known animation companies in the industry. We have a lot of masterpieces, and before the disc market shrinks, our animation sales are all 10,000. At the beginning, even if the disc market is shrinking, the minimum is seven or eight thousand. After two years, a later version will rise to more than ten thousand. It should be no problem.”
“Um.”
Takagi Makoto responded, saying that he knew, and then asked: “What then?”
“Then…every one of our DOS animations is very successful, but everyone knows that our DOS has a dark history-“Heartbeat Cabin”, not only the sales volume is not good, the reputation is also bad, many people think The existence of this animation is a shame to our DOS, so…”
As Uchida said, he raised his head and glanced at Takagi Makoto, “So this time for the 15th anniversary commemorative event, should we make a remake of “Heartbeat House”?”
“A lot of people…”
Makoto Takagi frowned, “A lot of people you are talking about, who are they?”
“We people inside DOS, as well as those netizens on the forum.” Uchida replied honestly.
“What about you?” Gao Mucheng asked again.
“I……”
For a moment, Uchida couldn’t understand Makoto Takagi’s intentions, so that he didn’t know how to answer.
Takagi didn’t want to blame Uchida Okichi.
He raised his hand to interrupt, and immediately said, “Let me think about it.”
“Oh, good.” Uchida sighed in relief.
At this time, there was another knock on the door.
Takayama Sakurako is here.
“President, are you looking for me?” Takayama Sakurako questioned.
Takagi Makoto told Takayama Sakurako to sit down.
Originally I wanted to ask what kind of animation Takayama Sakurako wanted to do next, but when I thought of the suggestion Uchida Okichi just now, I changed my words: “Do you know what the earliest animation of our DOS is?”
“The earliest animation?”
Takayama Sakurako was stunned for a moment, and then said uncertainly, “You mean CL?”
“Earlier than CL.” Takagi Makoto reminded.
Takayama Sakurako stopped talking immediately.
When Takagi Makoto saw this reaction, she knew that Takayama Sakurako clearly knew the existence of the animation “Heartbeat Cabin”, but Takayama Sakurako should also know that this animation is the dark history of DOS, and it is a taboo of DOS. Before he knew his intentions, he dared not answer indiscriminately.
He said dumbfoundedly: “You misunderstood what I meant… That’s it. Just now Uchida suggested to me a DOS 15th anniversary commemorative event, saying that it would be a remake of “Heartbeat House”.”
“You mean… want me to be the supervisor of the remake of “Heartbeat House”?” Takayama Sakurako finally understood.
“Yes, I have this idea.”
Takagi Makoto confirmed, “Maybe you have to write the script, because I think the original version of the script is very problematic, so I have to rewrite it.”
“This…” Takayama Sakurako did not immediately agree, but looked like she was considering it.
Uchida couldn’t help but said, “President, don’t you personally supervise?”
“Why should I be the supervisor myself?” Takagi Makoto had an inexplicable expression on his face.
“Although it is not impossible to let Takayama be the supervisor, I think it would be more meaningful if we can find the people who made “Heartbeat Cabin” to do it.” Uchida explained.
“But I didn’t participate in it at the beginning.”
Makoto Takagi quickly argued, “I didn’t write the script at the time, nor did I supervise it. I didn’t even participate in the character design, original paintings, and music. Although the producer was indeed me, the guy from Matsuura wouldn’t let it. I pointed at him, that is to say, this animation has nothing to do with me at all.”
Matsuura Mitsui, the supervisor and scripting leader of “Heartbeat House”, is this guy, who made “Heartbeat House” such a rubbish will become the black history of DOS. As a result, after the animation failed, this guy ran away.
After doing CL, Takagi finally got the investment from Kawano Akino, but he had a conflict with Oda Zongzheng and was hung up on the forum to denounce.
At that time, he was still wondering who should be the new supervisor of CL. As a result, this guy specifically called him and asked him to come back. He was not unable to come back.
At that time, Takagi was very angry, but it was also because of the guy’s phone call that Takagi made up his mind to act as a supervisor.
It is impossible for the original team to remake “Heartbeat House”, at least it is impossible to call Matsuura Mitsutake back. Takagi also decided that he would no longer do animations personally, it is impossible to write the script by himself, and it is impossible. Act as supervisor yourself.
After all, it is more appropriate to find Takayama Sakurako.
I just don’t know if Takayama Sakurako is willing to provoke this burden.
