If modern audiences are accustomed to "animated" operations, they will definitely not have such concerns.
After all, that is the main source of money.
Make an animation, and then launch a wave of collaborations and peripheral products.
There may even be an IP game in the end.
A series of money-grabbing businesses are safe and sound.
But for those who are trying animation for the first time, no one can guarantee it.
Especially seeing how big of a momentum "Young Heroes" is getting now.
They were genuinely worried that Ugetsu Shoten had invested too much money in this and would not have enough money to produce the "Ninja Girls" animation.
Of course, because most people are also loyal readers of "Young Heroes".
So they will definitely not blame Yuyue Store for its current practices.
After all, for readers, the more their favorite works and characters are respected, the happier they are.
As a result, they can only continue to worry about "what if they run out of money and give up."
"Ugetsu Store has also been working hard."
"That's right. They have spent so many years preparing from scratch. We shouldn't make things difficult for them any further."
“There are thousands of novels, but this is the only one that turns a novel into an animation and allows us to see our beloved characters move on TV!”
Readers who were connected through the magazine "Feng Yun Ninja Tales" gathered together.
Because they have the same hobbies and can get along well, enthusiasts from all over the world have even spontaneously started to hold regular gatherings.
Whether discussing the details of the work analysis or exchanging the latest surrounding information, everyone can have a great time while eating and chatting.
Even the business of restaurants everywhere has improved as a result.
Shop owners who have tasted the sweetness are naturally happy to host such "dinner parties".
They wish these people would come every day.
Those who attend the party are all like-minded and can speak freely without worrying about their status. The host is also warm and speaks nicely.
People are naturally more willing to hold such events.
"……well."
It’s not the Ugetsu store’s fault, nor is it the fault that the “Young Heroes” event was too big.
At the end of the discussion, people found that they didn't even know where to start.
Xiaonan quietly sneaked in and listened to this and looked at that, and felt that everyone was talking about
That makes sense.
At the same time, it is also more difficult.
——Because although she was very firm and insisted on making "Ninja Girl" into an animation no matter what, she also didn't want to make things difficult for Miss Ugetsuki.
But if she gave up just like that... she wouldn't be willing to do that.
After all, that was Yahiko... no, a girl who looked just like Yahiko.
if……
If only I could see her move, laughing and acting wildly.
Could she imagine that Yahiko was not actually dead, but just changed into a different form, accompanying them and this world?
She lowered her head.
No matter how lively the people around her were, she remained silent.
Because she didn't know what else to say in this situation.
But it’s not true that no one can find a breakthrough.
"If it's a matter of money, then can't we just pay for it?"
Some people who are not short of money have keenly grasped the key point.
If it's just because they invested too much money in "Young Heroes", wouldn't they just make up for it?
Is it possible?!
Xiaonan raised his head again.
If that were the case, it would be simple indeed.
As long as we give Miss Ugetsuki money, enough money, then we can guarantee that "Ninja Girl" will be adapted into an animation!
After hearing this, other people present also expressed their support.
“Yes!”
At one point, the people participating in the discussion slammed the table as if they suddenly came to their senses.
"That's right, if it's just a matter of money, then let's all raise the money!"
“Suddenly I have the motivation to work!”
"Ugetsu Store has done so much! Now it's time we do something for her!"
"That's right, Yuyue Store is out of money, but we still have money!"
"I'll contact other members of the fan club right now!!!"
Once people have a goal, their ability to act is amazing.
From one city to another.
From one country to another.
Because there is no shortage of ninjas with their own specialties among the enthusiasts, the action and efficiency were beyond people's expectations.
Even they themselves did not expect that they would be able to accomplish it so quickly and receive so many responses.
Through "Wind and Cloud Ninja Tales"
In this way, the colleagues in the department started their big action for the first time.
After all, there is no convenient and fast Internet in this world.
Therefore, by the time Yu Yue learned the news, the rumor had already spread inexplicably.
"What……?"
Yu Yue slowly typed a question mark.
Looking at Yu Yue who was completely confused and had no idea what was going on, the editor-in-chief did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“We didn’t expect this to happen.”
As the editor-in-chief of "Feng Yun Ninja Tales", he knows the readers' love for these two works.
You can tell from the constant flow of submissions and letters.
So when he suddenly received a large number of letters and readers visiting his website, he did not think too much about it - he just thought that people had a new enthusiasm.
After all, there has to be animation.
This is the first work that allows characters to move and have sounds, who wouldn’t be excited?
After opening the letter, they were stunned.
Because whether it is a submission or a simple letter, it expresses the same meaning in a straightforward or roundabout way.
"Please make "Ninja Girl" into an animation, we are willing to pay for it."
And it wasn't just one or two batches of letters that were like this.
Even those who came to me had almost the same meaning.
Editor-in-chief, no, the entire editorial department is stunned.
You are not submitting any works or expressing your expectations for the "Young Heroes" animation, but are asking for donations to produce "Ninja Girls"?
What's the point of this?
"But recently, the mailbox is about to be filled with petitions - all of them are asking for donations so that we can make the animation of "Ninja Girls"..."
After hearing the whole story, Ugetsu pressed his forehead and looked at Uchiha Shisui beside him in disbelief:
"If I heard correctly, someone wants to give us money?"
The boy nodded, then replied rationally, "To be precise, people want to donate to support us in making Ninja Girls anime."
"Are you sure? Donate?"
Yu Yue looked at the editor again.
"Yes, and also guests who come to us directly."
For ordinary people, the editorial department is of course a holy place, and the chosen method of communication is writing letters.
But for the big guys, it is a negotiable
object.
Of course, direct communication is the most efficient.
"They even said money is a small matter and can be negotiated."
The editor-in-chief actually doesn't want to trouble Miss Yu Yue with everything.
After all, Miss Yu Yue has so many projects on hand and is busy every day.
But there is no way , they gave too much.jpg
Yu Yue: “…”
This was something she never expected.
She thought that if you want people to accept new things, there should be some warm-up and transition.
She was even prepared for the huge boycott the magazine would receive - protests such as that only a wife on paper was a wife, and that the animation would destroy their love.
I didn’t expect that people would not only accept it well, but also be so enthusiastic.
The animation of "Young Heroes" hasn't come out yet, but I'm already thinking about "Ninja Girls".
As one of the two pillars of the IP plan, "Ninja Girl" will of course be animated.
But not now - after all, the audience overlap rate of the two works is very high, and launching them together will only result in competing for traffic.
Besides, the production of animation cannot be done by just making hand seals.
So it is definitely impossible to do both at the same time.
——So what exactly happened?
Ugetsu was confused.
When we were informed that "Young Heroes" would be adapted into an animation, weren't everyone excited to see the animation of "Young Heroes"?
Why are you worried about "Ninja Girl" before today?
And it's not just talk.
Even donations came.
Yu Yue felt that as a senior official in two worlds, he had seen all kinds of ups and downs.
But she had never seen anything like what happened today.
...No, let's investigate this matter first and find out where it came from.
If you don't figure out what's going on, the money will be hot to handle whether you take it or not.
Yu Yue doesn't want to ruin her good reputation because of this.
"Then we will also publish a thank you letter in the next issue of "Feng Yun Ninja Tales", saying that we are very grateful for the enthusiasm of the readers, but we have plans for animation, and we ask all enthusiastic readers to wait for the announcement of later information."
"You really don't want to accept it?"
The editor-in-chief was a little tempted.
After all, that's a lot of money.
Not to mention how much the readers who wrote to us could give, the few big sponsors who came to us on their own initiative... each one is richer than the other.
It's true that I'm rich.
“It’s not like we really can’t survive.”
Ugetsu shook her head.
"Besides, this is our responsibility. It's wrong to make the audience so worried."
She said with a serious expression.
"How can we still let them pay for what we should be doing?"
"Readers are enthusiastic, so we should provide them with better services and bring them more happiness."
——Of course, it is only natural to charge a small fee through legitimate means, right?
When the editor-in-chief heard this, he lowered his head in shame.
I am really blinded by my own greed.
How could I forget such a simple truth?
"I understand."
He had an expression of enlightenment on his face.
"Please rest assured, Miss Yu Yue, we will strictly follow Miss Yu Yue's instructions."
"We will serve our readers better and more attentively!"
"Well, I believe you can do it."
Yu Yue quickly encouraged him.
"Go ahead."
After seeing off the editor-in-chief, Yu Yue leaned back heavily.
Let out a long sigh of relief.
"What is this all about?"
She shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
——Everything is going well, why are you doing crowdfunding?
"Do we look poor?"
Although Yu Yue didn't show off her wealth on purpose, she felt that people usually saw Yu Yue this and that.
It should not be associated with "poverty" or "no money".
Uchiha Shisui never expected that such a thing would happen.
Even he, who is good at speaking, didn't know how to respond to this.
After all, if they really couldn't make money, the five major ninja villages wouldn't have been able to cooperate peacefully until now.
Ninjas can be gentle and work for nothing.
But the Ninja Village is not a charity organization.
There's no way they 'd work so hard for so long for something that has no benefit.
"Forget it, Shisui, send someone to investigate what's going on."
Yu Yue narrowed her eyes and undoubtedly tapped her fingers on the table a few times.
"Let's first understand the cause and effect - if we don't handle this well, it's someone else who is messing with us."
It wouldn't be surprising if that were the case.
After all, Yu Yue Store has been making a lot of money in various industries over the years.
There are those who make money together with it, and naturally there are also those who are jealous and wish they would die tomorrow so that they can give up this huge piece of cake.
"I see."
After hearing what Yu Yue said, Uchiha Shisui also became serious.
He originally thought it might be just an accident.
But if it is really as Miss Yu Yue said, it is targeting Miss Yu Yue’s business.
He restrained his expression, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, which were usually gentle and peaceful.
——Then he would never allow it.
"Don't worry."
He consoled again.
At the same time, his gaze returned to Yu Yue.
——Miss Ugetsu used her frail body to bring peace and tranquility to the ninjas.
Then no matter what he said, he would protect her and her hard work.
"Even if I have to risk my life, I will..."
“No no!”
When Yu Yue heard this, she jumped up and held the man down without waiting for him to finish.
"It doesn't have to be that serious. If you can solve it, solve it. If you can't, come back and brainstorm... You mustn't be like Itachi."
There will always be enemies. As long as you make money and live a good life, this is inevitable.
It can never be completely eliminated.
But she only has this one golden assistant!
Using his carefully trained gold medal assistant to exchange for a shady deal involving someone unknown... give him face, okay?
Of course not.
Thinking of Uchiha Itachi who suddenly rebelled, she quickly emphasized it again:
"Nothing is more important than your safety, do you understand?"
"But……"
The curly-haired boy frowned.
"No buts."
Ugetsu knew that as a ninja, Shisui had his own set of 'solution' ideas and standards.
But it doesn't work.
"Your safety is the most important thing to me. If you don't agree, then find someone else."
Yu Yue used her trump card.
'Substitution'.
This is a powerful weapon for ninjas.
To them, there is no difference between "change someone" and "you can't do it".
Especially for elites like Shisui, it is even more difficult to accept such changes.
He looked at Yu Yue seriously, with a look that said if he didn't agree, someone else would do it immediately, so he had no choice but to raise his hand in compromise:
"……I see."
He didn't expect that Miss Yu Yue would have such a big reaction just from his words.
But at the same time, he also felt as if a warmth suddenly surrounded him in his heart.
After all, for ninjas, 'giving everything to complete the mission' is the norm.
This is true even in a clan that attaches great importance to itself.
'Nothing is more important than you.'
Compared to the tasks delivered, compared to the projects that make money.
'Uchiha Shisui' is a much more important person.
Perhaps only Miss Ugetsu would think this way.
How could Uchiha Shisui say no to someone who treated him wholeheartedly and put as his first priority?
He could only cast towards.
"Do you really know?"
Hearing the boy's straightforward answer, Yu Yue became suspicious.
In her opinion, the other party would not give up so easily.
"Of course it's true."
Uchiha Shisui didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Although I really want to say it's fake."
He sighed exaggeratedly.
"But Miss Ugetsuki will definitely not let me do this."
He spread his hands helplessly.
"You really know me so well."
Hearing this, Yu Yue felt relieved.
Since the other party is so aware, he probably won't take the risk of being captured by his own people.
She couldn't help but feel a headache when she thought of this:
"It's just an ordinary job, why does it become so serious when it comes to you?"
You may even risk your life!
"Of course it's because it's Miss Ugetsu's order."
"Besides... someone who can influence readers on such a large scale is probably not an ordinary person."
The smile on Uchiha Shisui's face faded again.
"...Anyway, I will investigate it thoroughly."
"Of course, this is on the premise of ensuring your own safety."
See if Yu Yue wants to say something
"Zi," Uchiha Shisui quickly added.
After hearing this, Yu Yue waved her hand and let him go.
"Okay, let's go now."
Then when Uchiha Shisui walked to the door, she added:
"…go early and come back early."
Without you here, my work here will be delayed.
The young man turned around and smiled when he heard this.
"Of course, there's no way I can leave Miss Ugetsuki for a long time."
It never happened in the past, and it certainly won’t happen in the future.
He would not feel at ease no matter who he entrusted Miss Yu Yue's affairs to.
No matter what the trick is with the 'donation' thing.
The dubbing auditions for "Young Heroes" will still continue - fortunately, the new issue of "Ninja Tales" magazine repeatedly expressed that they are not short of money at this stage, but they only produced one animation because they wanted to better serve readers.
This made countless people who were eager to make a move suppress their excited hearts and wallets and wait for the results.
——Anyway, their original intention was just to hope that Ugetsu Shoten could make an animation of "Ninja Girls".
It doesn't matter if it's later, they are not in a hurry.
And didn’t “Ninja Tales” also say that it was done step by step in order to ensure the quality?
This actually shows that we value them and the performance of their works!
They are willing to wait.
The few who had their wallets and piggy banks ready could only regretfully withdraw their small amounts of money.
I never thought that one day I would have no money to spend.
Well, this probably proves that Yuyue Store is truly a conscientious business.
The matter of "donation" came to an end for the time being, and after brutal fighting and competition, only one hundred participants were left in the selection.
These one hundred people come from all walks of life all over the world.
Although there are many ninjas who won by relying on their "professional skills", the contestants who come from ordinary people should not be underestimated.
Those who can reach this point are all elites.
What Yu Yue needs to worry about now is the issue of the venue.
In fact, according to the normal event hosting process, the subsequent venue arrangements should have been prepared during the auditions.
But this time, several ninja villages were really too enthusiastic.
Even Yu Yue didn't think this was a good idea for the moment.
--without
The solution given by each of them is heart-warming.
Are you willing to build a new venue and stage for this event?
Then I could even prepare a building just for that.
What’s the big deal about construction? I can even do it right in the resort!
And not only the five major ninja villages, but also several small ninja villages have joined in.
After all, this doesn't involve ninjas, nor does it involve danger.
So what is the difference between the big ninja village and the small ninja village?
The big ninja village needs exposure, and our small ninja village needs it too.
So after the five major ninja villages, Ugetsu received applications from Kusagakure Village, Takigakure Village... and even the Rain Village, which has always been very mysterious.
And it was Xiaonan who delivered it personally.
——It was at this time that Yu Yue found out that Konan and the companion she brought with her who was very skilled in sealing techniques were both ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village.
...Then the selection of this location becomes even more difficult.
It is difficult for a small ninja village to provide a solution as comprehensive as that of a large ninja village.
But they are more sincere.
——For example, the Kusagakure Village, they are even willing to use secret techniques to build venues and mobilize the entire village to cooperate in completing activities.
In other words, no matter who Yu Yue likes or how many people she needs, they will not say "no".
The Hidden Rain Village also expressed that they would build a huge "canopy" to block the heavy rain.
Of course the actual situation is that although Konan and Nagato also prompted people to apply, they were not really planning to hold this dubbing contest here.
There is no other reason, they just have too many secrets here.
When there are too many people, they will talk too much, and revealing even a little bit will cause them a lot of trouble.
But even so, they still submitted an application just to appear to be "sociable".
Otherwise, everyone is taking active action, but there is no movement here... Isn't this very strange?
It’s just like the Hidden Mist Village back then.
Wasn't it because he repeatedly refused to cooperate with Yu Yue Store that he was caught and cleaned up?
In fact, Konan and Nagato were not very clear about what happened exactly.
They only knew that the "Ah Fei" who had run away with full confidence suddenly came back in disgrace one day.
It looks like he's had some bad luck in the Hidden Mist Village or the Land of Water.
They, the Hidden Rain Village, cannot follow in that footsteps.
"Is it really okay?"
But even though Xiaonan just follows the crowd, he is still a little worried.
The previous enthusiasm to take the risk of making "Ninja Girl" into an animation has calmed down, and she began to worry about the application issue.
After all, the Hidden Rain Village doesn't just have ninjas, it also has the 'Akatsuki' part.
"Is that okay?"
Nagato was much calmer.
"There's no way we'll be selected - we're just submitting an application for the sake of showing our support."
"No matter how you look at it, those big ninja villages are the ones that will win the bid."
Even though what he wrote was quite exaggerated, Nagato really didn't think that what he wrote could really impress Miss Ugetsu and the judges.
Nothing else to say.
The almost non-stop heavy rain in the Hidden Rain Village alone is a big problem.
"That's true..."
While Xiaonan breathed a sigh of relief, he also felt a little regretful.
After all, the Hidden Rain Village is also her hometown.
It is impossible for her to think that her hometown is necessarily worse than other places.
"Anyway, just be at ease... Or if you still want to give Miss Ugetsu some advice on the "Ninja Girl" matter, that's not impossible."
A hint of smile appeared on Nagato's pale face.
Xiaonan's face darkened.
"Don't mention it again."
——That one impulse was enough.
How can it happen a second time?
Xiaonan later reflected on why he was so blinded by such rumors.
She should have trusted Miss Ugetsu more.
Ms. Ugetsu put so much effort into producing "Ninja Girls" and also thoughtfully prepared various theme stores.
How could he leave her alone?
It's all the fault of that guy who spread the rumor!
And just when each ninja village was working hard to find a venue for the "Dubbing Contest".
However, a not-so-small accident occurred in Konoha Village.
The forbidden scroll left by the second generation seems to have been touched by someone. !
