428. Heartwarming

(4000 word chapter)

"So, are you going?" Watanabe Wan Yumi asked.

Iwahashi Shinichi said: "Of course I want to go."

Anyway, I have already learned from Watanabe Mayumi's mother and sister, and this brother-in-law is no different. Iwahashi Shinichi was very energetic, and Watanabe Mayumi didn't say anything, and secretly played a prank.

After conveying such an inappropriate invitation to Shinichi Iwahashi, Watanabe Manyumi made a reservation at a restaurant and invited Masaki Yoshida to dinner. Shinichi Iwahashi, who was addicted to rubbing against the domineering president, opened his mouth and spread his legs, first rubbing against her car, and then

Eat her food.

Yoshida Masaki is of medium height, slightly dark complexion, and looks like an ordinary office worker. He looks older than his actual age. When we met, Watanabe Manyumi served as the introducer, and Iwahashi Shinichi exchanged business cards with him.

The three people met for business reasons and sat together, so the topic of work became the topic.

"Wan Yumi told me Iwahashi-san's plan." Masaki Yoshida is kind to others, but he doesn't feel hypocritical at all and is easy to get along with.

Looking at the natural demeanor of Watanabe Manyumi in front of this brother-in-law, you can understand a corner of Yoshida Masaki's character.



Yoshida Miki didn't know about the meeting between Watanabe Manyumi and Iwahashi Shinichi. He had heard about Iwahashi Shinichi before. Yoshida Masaki originally admired this person, but now that they met, the young man's words and deeds were impressive.

The impression is also good.

Iwahashi Shinichi suggested setting up a line with the investors behind the animation production company. This idea was unique enough and a bit "non-mainstream" at the moment. However, Yoshida Masaki did not think his idea was whimsical.

This kind of trust comes from the talent he showed when he participated in the production of variety shows before.

Looking back on his previous actions, this person seems to play cards unreasonably, but in fact he pays more attention to reality than anyone else and closely follows the trend.

With such a preconceived impression, after Masaki Yoshida listened to Watanabe Mayumi telling me about Iwahashi Shinichi's idea, he thought about it along with Iwahashi Shinichi's plan, and felt that the future he envisioned seemed logical.

Of course, the envisioned future is something that has not yet come true. What really makes this plan feasible is the proposal to find investment from the higher-level enterprises of the animation production company. After going around this circle, the idea really came into being.

possibility of realization.



The three of them chatted for a while. Iwahashi Shinichi was obedient and guessed that the strange request conveyed by Watanabe Wanyumi was not Yoshida Masaki's own idea, so he couldn't help but glance at her.

After receiving his gaze, Watanabe Mayumi, who had successfully pulled off the prank, acted as if nothing had happened. She did not react at all like someone who had their secret revealed. In other words, this was not a "revealing of the secret" but a "revelation of the mystery."

Anyway, the two of them couldn't argue about this in front of Masaki Yoshida, so Iwahashi Shinichi could only laugh.

It was Masaki Yoshida who took this subtle interaction between the two people into his eyes.

Yoshida Masaki's curiosity about Iwahashi Shinichi comes not only from his appreciation of his talent, but also from his curiosity about the relationship between him and Watanabe Manyumi.

When I met Shinichi Iwahashi and Masaki Yoshida today, I didn't feel that the relationship between the two was ambiguous, but I could sense the tacit understanding between the two.

Not only are these two people a perfect match in their careers, they also show a perfect understanding when talking.

When the band Heavenly Kingdom, a collaboration between Watanabe Manyumi and Iwahashi Shinichi, was a big success, Yoshida Masaki once said to his wife that it would be good for Iwahashi Shinichi to join the Watanabe family in the future.

Yoshida Miki felt that what her husband said was nonsense, but Yoshida Masaki did not say it casually on a whim.

After the death of Susumu Watanabe, as the only male in this house of women, Yoshida Masaki also shouldered such an alternative responsibility and had to worry about his sister-in-law's life-long affairs.

Since both father-in-law and mother-in-law planned to let Watanabe Mayumi find a wife, he, as a brother-in-law, also took this matter to heart.

If you are in the entertainment industry and want to hire a son-in-law, you will most likely choose someone from the industry.

Shinichi Iwahashi has outstanding abilities and a low background. His several collaborations with Watanabe Mayumi have been brilliant. He is also a staff member produced by Watanabe and knows everything about him. In the eyes of Yoshida Masaki, he is a perfect candidate for his brother-in-law.

Yoshida Miki felt that her husband's idea was a boring whim, and was angry that he linked his sister to Iwahashi Shinichi. But Yoshida Masaki never gave up the idea. This time Watanabe Manyumi wanted to cooperate with Iwahashi Shinichi in the record company, and it happened to be

Opportunity, let him meet Iwahashi Shinichi.

Now that they have met, he has a better impression of Shinichi Iwahashi and feels that the two of them are a good match. Yoshida Masaki has his own way of doing business, but when it comes to these matters, his ideas are very simple.

His attitude is not only because of Watanabe Wanyumi, but also includes his appreciation for Iwahashi Shinichi.



"After Wan Yumi told me about Iwahashi-san's idea, I also went to investigate, and I found a suitable investor." Yoshida Masaki is very efficient in doing things, and he came prepared this time.

"How about Takeda Printing Company?" Masaki Yoshida reported the name of a printing company.

Printing company?

Yoshida Masaki revealed the answer, and Shinichi Iwahashi and Watanabe Manyumi exchanged glances subconsciously.

"Takeda Printing ranks among the top ten large-scale printing companies in the country. Their printing business also includes comics, newspapers, magazines, and text. They are shareholders of Japan Animation Company, and have a business support relationship with Toei Animation. Not only

In this way, we have good relations with the publishing houses of those bookstores." Masaki Yoshida explained.

"Japanese animation company?" Watanabe Manyumi reacted, "Is it the Japanese animation company that produced "World Masterpiece Theater"?"

"Yes, that's right, "Girl of the Alps" and "Three Thousand Miles to Seek Mother"." Yoshida Masaki casually reported two cartoons produced by Japanese animation companies, perfectly revealing his age.

Both of these World Masterpiece Theater series were produced in the 1970s, and the animation director was none other than Miyazaki Hayao's good partner Takahata Yu.

Between 1974 and 1979, Hayao Miyazaki and Yu Takahata participated in directing several World Masterpiece Theater series at Japan Animation Company.

The name Nippon Animation Company sounds majestic, but it was actually founded by staff who became independent when Osamu Tezuka's Mushi Production Animation Company went bankrupt.

Japan Animation Company is famous for producing the World Masterpiece Theater series. They adapted children's literature and folk tales from Europe into animations. The entire series started in 1974 and continues to the present. It is not only popular in its own country, but also exported overseas.

The two-dimensional world's characteristics of blurring countries, races, and customs are fully reflected in this world masterpiece theater series.

Animation works adapted from European children's literature produced by a Japanese team were exported to Europe and broadcast on European TV stations. The Europeans who watched the animation did not even know that it was a Japanese work.

Another point is that the copyright fees for cartoons exported to Europe are much higher than those exported to Asia. Therefore, Japanese animation companies are committed to selling animations to Omi. This Japanese animation company also relies on this series of theaters to gain fame and fortune.

Not only that, from the cooperation in 1974 to the present, we have also accumulated considerable friendship with Fuji TV.

The relationship between an animation production company and a TV station is, for example, similar to the relationship between a production company and a record company.

The production company produced the record, but it did not have the ability to distribute it. If there was no record company as the distributor, there would be no way to put the record on the shelves of record stores.

Similarly, if an animation production company does not have a TV station willing to be the distributor, it will not be able to successfully broadcast the animation it produces.

In turn, record companies can help production companies release records, or they can find production companies and cooperate with them to produce a certain singer's records. TV stations can also find animation production companies and jointly produce with them.



Japanese animation company is not a large company in the animation industry. Yoshida Masaki would suggest to find Takeda Printing Company. The most important thing is actually their business cooperation relationship with Toei Animation, as well as their special status as a printing company and publishing company.

Social relations will be good.

Takeda Printing Company is one of the top ten printing companies in Japan. This name can scare off quite a few people.

However, Japan has the absolute ace among printing companies, Toppan Printing Company, which occupies 26.3% of the domestic printing market, and has operations all over the world. There is also a veteran printing company, Da Nippon, which is slightly less than Toppan Printing Company, with a domestic market share of 26%.

Printing company.

These two giants take up more than half of the printing market share in Japan, and Zhutian Printing Company is not ranked behind Jiaduobao and Wanglaoji. There are several printing giants in front of it, including

Strength, but not to the point where it is too high to reach.

Of course, this conclusion, which is not unattainable, can only be made with the support of Watanabe Productions. If Watanabe Productions had not been the matchmaker behind the scenes, and it was just Shinichi Iwahashi himself, he would definitely not be able to knock on their door.

It was a very enjoyable meal.

After talking about the serious business of meeting Yoshida Masaki, the following topics among the three of them became casual. However, Yoshida Masaki, a former variety show producer, and Iwahashi Shinichi discussed the most about the production of variety shows.

.

"Don't think it's all irrelevant gossip. I don't know how many good programs were born out of such gossip." Masaki Yoshida talked about the production of variety shows. His whole face was in high spirits, and he no longer looked like he was ordinary at work.

The appearance of the clan.

"Indeed." Iwahashi Shin nodded in agreement.

Not to mention anything else, the original inspiration for the social show that the fat young man Akimoto Yasushi is having a lot of fun with was casually mentioned by him when he was having fun with the hostess.

As for whether it is a good show, the ratings are pretty good now, and Fuji TV is planning to renew it for a second episode.

"When I was young, Fuji TV producers and my father would discuss program ideas casually in the living room at home." Watanabe Wan Yumi let the conversation between the two of them bring back memories of her teenage years.

"The little ideas they often say will appear on TV at some point."

When Yoshida Masaki heard Watanabe Manyumi talking about this matter, he looked yearning, "So, this is the power of TV producers."

The idea that comes up while smoking a cigarette is finally turned into a program that entertains people of all ages. This sense of accomplishment is fascinating, and it is also a "privilege" that one can enjoy as a man in black behind the scenes.



After the meal, Masaki Yoshida said goodbye to the two of them outside the restaurant. When leaving, Masaki Yoshida said: "The previous collaborations between Iwahashi-san and Wan Yumi have received very good responses, and this time is also very exciting."

"I wish you two success." Masaki Yoshida's tone was kind and friendly.

Watanabe Manyumi and Iwahashi Shinichi thanked him. Yoshida Masaki said goodbye to them and got into the car.

Send Masaki Yoshida away, leaving only the two of them.

Iwahashi Shinichi settled the accounts later and asked Watanabe Wan Yumi, "If I don't come here in person, Yoshida-san won't help. Is this what you said yourself?"

When he mentioned this matter again, Watanabe Wan Yumi smiled, but did not answer the question and asked: "What do you think? Takeda Printing Company."

After she diverted the topic like this, Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help but pursue her, but he was still a little unwilling to let her go, so, as if making a wisecrack, he replied: "It's heart-warming."

Watanabe Manyumi laughed hard when she received such an answer, "Okay." She laughed again, and after laughing, she told Iwahashi Shinichi: "In that case, I will go back and discuss it with my mother."

When it came to this part, Iwahashi Shinichi stopped expressing his opinions and just listened.

The two of them got into the car together. Watanabe Mayumi saw that it was still early, so she told the driver the address of her old residence. It seemed that she planned to discuss it with Watanabe Misa and ask for a charter.

The car started, and the emotionless driver drove his car silently.

They had a very pleasant conversation just now, but they had nothing to say and remained silent all the way. Iwahashi Shinichi was thinking about the Takeda Printing Company proposed by Yoshida Masaki, and occasionally got distracted and glanced at Watanabe Manyumi. She also looked like a

He looked thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Iwahashi Shinichi was a little curious, but it was not convenient to ask.

It was not until they approached the Watanabe family's old house that Watanabe Manyumi opened her mouth and said, "Thank you for today, Shinichi-kun."

Iwahashi Shinichi wanted to ask, "Have I done anything that deserves to be thanked?", but before he said it, he thought for a moment, so he changed his mind and said, "Nothing."

After receiving such an answer, Watanabe Manyumi seemed to be relieved.

The car stopped outside Watanabe's old house, and Watanabe Wan Yumi got out of the car. Iwahashi Shinichi skillfully picked up her handbag and handed it over.

"Good night." Watanabe Manyumi said to him and took the handbag.

Iwahashi Shinichi also replied "Good night."

Watanabe Wan Yumi entered the old house, and the emotionless driver restarted the car. Iwahashi Shinichi looked at the time and felt that it was too early to go home, so he did not let the driver take her home directly, but asked him to take her to the car on his behalf.

Yogi's recording studio.

The car drove forward, and another car behind it drove towards Watanabe's old house.
