Best wishes for animation production

Sato Ei dropped the gift and ran away.

Before Gu Xue could react, a second person came in again. It was Chen An. He was quite polite. He put down the gift and said Merry Christmas before running away.

There were more question marks on Gu Xue's head.

Then the third person, the fourth person...

Soon, Gu Xue received a bunch of gifts and finally figured out what happened.

It turns out that in addition to the surprise outside the door, there is also the matter of giving gifts, but this was not initiated by Sato Ei.

This made Gu Xue very angry. Why didn't Sato Ei initiate it? Gu Xue had already known about what she initiated, so she wouldn't be so flustered and embarrassed now...

This was the first time she had received so many gifts.

She was really panicked, and she was too embarrassed to say no. In the end, she had no choice. Gu Rou was not here, and Chisa Mihara was not here, so she could only run to her sister, Yujing Yao, Gu Rou's former right-hand man and now the head of her studio. Miss.

Go get help.

"Take it, why are you so embarrassed?"

After listening to Gu Xue's story, Yujing Yao gave a quite reasonable suggestion, and she also took out a gift and put it in Gu Xue's hand.

Gu Xue looked at the gift in her hand and was stunned. She was stunned for a long time and then said: "No, why are you giving me gifts? I didn't do anything..."

Yu Jingyao smiled and asked, "What do you think?"

Gu Xue felt a little unsure and said, "They want me to give them a salary increase?"

"They have a great idea. Even if you agree, I will oppose it." Yu Jingyao puffed up his chest, "The animation industry is already in a slump, and they want to raise wages? I also want to cut the price of their single card."

Gu Xue: "..."

Are you a devil?

Noticing that Gu Xue's eyes were a bit strange, Yu Jingyao waved her hand, "You're just kidding."

Gu Xue was speechless: "You don't look like you are joking."

"……All right."

Yujing Yao spread his hands and confessed: "I have indeed considered it. You should know that before I came to YUKI Studio, I didn't understand animation production at all. In order not to be embarrassed in front of you, I made a lot of effort to understand it. this industry.”

"So, does this have anything to do with you cutting the price of a single card?"

"Of course," Yujing Yao sighed, "Xiaoxue, you should know the situation outside, right? I have to say that compared to them, YUKI Studio is really like a charity."

"Everyone else is trying their best to save money, even the big animation production companies are doing the same. They treat the lower-level animators, such as the animators who are in charge of intermediates or the animators who have just been promoted as the second original animation, and they do everything they can. What? Management fees, training fees, and workstation usage fees are all exploited... But it's better when I come to you. I don't charge randomly. The unit price is straightforward, and the payment for some original paintings has been increased by 10%..."

"People who are capable can get more money. I agree with this. For example, Mr. Yamamaru in the photography department. They have a small number of people, but they rarely make suggestions about outsourcing if they can't solve the problem. As long as they are within their ability, they do it themselves every time." It’s a blast. As for the few capable original animators, such as the Three Musketeers, I don’t have any problem with them receiving such a salary. After all, there is only one Gu Xue, and we still have to rely on them to make a living.”

"But those ordinary animators, or... animators who are not very outstanding now, are really unnecessary. According to what I saw and heard when I learned about animation production some time ago, these people are very mobile. If you are capable, you may turn to freelance work after you gain a little fame, which is really not worth it.”

"..." Gu Xue felt guilty, "Even if I squeeze them hard, there seems to be no benefit, right?"

"Why not?" Yujing Yao said with a look of hatred, "Look at how much money you have made so far. Let me think about it, based on what your sister and Mihara Chisa said, including the supervision of "Embracing a Better Tomorrow" The salary is only over 500,000, and you earned it all by yourself! It has nothing to do with the studio. If you were a bit evil, how could you not earn such a small amount of money? If you are so evil now...you can support me!"

Hearing this, Gu Xue immediately took a step back, cupped her hands into fists, and shook them in the air: "I can't afford it. I can't afford it."

Still, quite cute.

Yu Jingyao laughed angrily: "I'm telling you something serious."

"I know." Gu Xue put down her hands, "But take a longer-term view. Now Small Company is developing new figurines, and YUKI Studio is starting a new project. I still owe Gu Rou money. What's the use of my black-hearted deduction of money before? , I’m really cheating and I’m not going to put all my money in now.”

"Besides, mobility is everyone's business. Is anyone leaving our studio?"

"..."

Facing the question about Gu Xue's soul, Yujing Yao was silent for a long time before reluctantly saying: "No!"

Gu Xue swung her ponytail and said proudly: "That's it. Instead of making those shady money, it's better to have a certain level of security in people's lives like now, and calm down and work hard for the studio... It's possible to work hard for the studio... It's a bit exaggerated, but this kind of thing is indeed relative. Personally, I would rather earn the audience's money openly, at least this way I can feel at ease when I spend the money."

Yu Jingyao: "..."

"What are you doing? What's that look like?"

Yu Jingyao stretched out her hand, grabbed Gu Xue's cheek, rubbed it hard, and said with a smile: "Now you know why people gave you gifts? Accept them with peace of mind. I don't know what good things the people at YUKI Studio did in their previous lives. , I can meet such a silly and cute boss like you."

Gu Xue: "..."

Is there any more royal method?

As he spoke, he suddenly cursed.

…

After finishing the conversation with Yu Jing Yao, Gu Xue returned to her office. As soon as she sat down, someone knocked on the door and came in to deliver gifts. Gu Xue still couldn't feel confident and was still a little embarrassed, but after talking to Yu Jing Yao, She was no longer so panicked. Pretending to be calm, he said thank you.

After the others left, Gu Xue picked up the pencil and was about to continue drawing the storyboard.

Someone is coming again...

This is the slowest time Gu Xue has ever drawn storyboards. The storyboards for the second episode of "My Youthful Love Story Really Have a Problem" made almost no progress even though people kept coming over to give gifts.

But this is also the least impatient time Gu Xue has ever had.

This situation of frequent knocking on the door lasted for more than half an hour. In the end, Gu Xue didn't focus on the storyboard at all, and just waited for the next person to knock on the door.

Knock knock.

Another person knocked on the door.

Gu Xue held the pencil, raised her head, and was about to say thank you, but found that it was Miss Mihara standing in front of the desk.

This is different.

Gu Xue dropped the pencil and quickly glanced at her hands. She didn't bring anything with her.

Slightly disappointed.

But that's okay.

Gu Xue stretched out her hand directly towards Miss Mihara, with her palm facing up and spreading her palm.

The meaning is very simple.

Give me money... bah, gifts.

Chisa Mihara saw the gift on Gu Xue's table and was about to ask, but she found that Gu Xue stretched out her hand towards her...

She was a little confused.

"Give me a gift." Facing Chisa Mihara, Gu Xue was very confident.

"..."

Chisa Mihara was silent.

After a few seconds.

I don't know what she was thinking.

Suddenly he put his hand on Gu Xue's open palm...

Gu Xue glanced at Mihara Chisa's hand, tilted her head, and said in confusion: "I want a gift, are you sure you want to give yourself away..."

Chisa Mihara's face turned red instantly, and she seemed to have reacted, and quickly pulled her hand back.

The sea, you are all water (you should stew me)
