Chapter 1168 Chapter 1177, Excellent people (cows) and talents (horses) all bring their own dry food! !
In this era, communication was not as convenient as it is in later generations. Even if there were mobile phones, they might not work in some places with poor signals.
Therefore, most people will discuss their itinerary with their relatives and friends in advance before going on a long trip.
On the one hand, it is to prevent relatives from worrying in case they suddenly cannot be contacted; on the other hand, if any accident occurs, they will know where to rescue, don’t you think?
Naoki Nagayama is not a loner, so before leaving, he will naturally explain his journey for the next half month to his family, especially those in Tokyo!
So after informing my parents, I called Tsuruko who should be in the apartment~
"Yes, Tsuruko." Naoki Nagayama said into the microphone, "I'm going on vacation! With Akina and Natsuka!"
"Eh~~~~"
Hezi let out the howl of a defeated dog.
"Ni-chan, are you going out to play again? How can you be so leisurely?! Don't you have to go to work at the company?!"
".It's true that I'm not the boss!"
Naoki Nagayama delivered a fatal blow, and then spoke with some doubt:
"Hezi, shouldn't college be the most relaxing and happiest time? Haven't you ever experienced hanging out with classmates, skipping classes with friends, and hanging out with your boyfriend?!"
"What are you talking about, Bagani-chan!" Hezi said into the microphone, "College students have a hard life, right? They have to attend classes every day, participate in club activities, prepare research topics, join research groups, and write papers in the future."
"Huh? Not skipping classes?" asked Naoki Nagayama.
Even in his previous life, when he had such a hard university life, he would skip classes during elective courses and fail the final exams.
"How can you skip class?! You won't have enough credits!"
Tsuruko said in surprise,
"Especially after the third year, everyone is working hard to catch up on credits in the hope of graduating!"
Waseda University has strict admission and graduation requirements. If you don't have enough credits, you really won't be given a diploma. People who are more talented than you work harder than you. This is reality~
"Tsk," Naoki Nagayama said with an ambiguous tone, "So, Tsuruko, what topic do you plan to choose for your graduation thesis?"
"Hehehe, the development trend of postmodern literature!" Hezi said with a smile, "Analyzing from youth romance novels"
With her own brother, a Naoki Prize winner, as an interviewee, and the manuscripts of emerging best-selling novels such as "Love Letter", "Love Sky", "Tomorrow's Me Dates with Yesterday's You", and "Tokyo Love Story" as first-hand information, Tsuruko's thesis must be well-founded, with clear arguments and great influence.
Think about it, there is a graduate student in the literature department whose research topic is the study of emerging online literature, and with Fanqie, Chen Dong, Xuehong and others showing up to explain it to you, then writing the paper must be like having divine help!
"."
Naoki Nagayama was stunned for a moment, with a helpless expression on his face.
"Hezi, you have such a good idea!"
"Hehehe, the one who is closest to the water gets the moon first."
"Then have you ever thought about what would happen if I didn't let you interview your brother if you chose this?!" Naoki Nagayama raised his lips, "I'm so stupid. I have your graduation thesis in my hands!"
"You" Hezi was startled, then reacted instantly, very confidently, "Humph, if you dare not help me, Ni-chan, I will tell mother!"
"."
Bah, you’re an adult, yet you’re still telling tales!
Do you think that I, Naoki Nagayama, am the kind of person who is afraid of my family’s nagging? Yes, I am!
"you are vicious!"
After hanging up the phone, Akina, who had been listening with her baby in her arms, laughed:
"Naoki-san, every time I hear you and Tsuruko on the phone, it's so funny!!!"
"My brother and I have only one sister who hasn't gotten married yet. There's nothing we can do." Naoyama Naoki shook his head and hugged Xiahua over. "Akina, isn't this how you talk to your brothers and sisters on the phone?"
“Not so funny.”
Akina smiled and shook her head. Her family was a big family and the relationship between brothers and sisters was pretty good. However, Akina was more in touch with her two sisters, and her two brothers only called occasionally to say hello.
As she spoke, Akina called her mother's home and began to report her itinerary to her mother-in-law Chieko.
"Oga-san, Naoki-san and I are going to take a vacation for a while."
In Naoki Naoyama's arms, little Xiahua didn't know what to do next, and was fluttering around happily. Naoki Naoyama looked at the cat taking a nap on the cat climbing frame and Yingtaro who was looking up at him and wagging his tail beside the sofa.
"Hiyataro, it's not that I won't take you, but you know that dogs can't take planes, right?!"
"And dogs can't take hot springs. You don't have sweat glands and you'll die of the heat!"
"So you should just wait for the arrival of spring in the Yamazakura Garden!"
Now that Yamazakurain has a housekeeper and a nanny, Nagayama Naoki can rest assured that the dog will stay here.
"Woof woof woof! (Your plane is private, dogs can get on it!)"
Yingtaro cried unwillingly, as if trying to arouse his master's sympathy.
"Okay, okay. When we come back, we'll take you to the Dog Square and find you a little lover, how about that?!"
"Woof woof! (It's a deal!)"
The entrance of the Shuyou Building in Ikebukuro.
Hayao Miyazaki, Isao Takahata and Toshio Suzuki came to the Shuyou Group for the first time. After signing the contract, the three of them have become veterans of Shuyou's subsidiaries and are considered Shuyou's people.
“This is the famous Tree Friends Building~”
Isao Takahata looked up at the sturdy, simple and majestic seven-story office building, which was as solid as a rock in the bustling streets of Ikebukuro.
"I thought the Shuyou Group would be in a high-rise building in Shinjuku or Roppongi, but I didn't expect it to be in Ikebukuro."
Toshio Suzuki also expressed his feelings. He considered for a long time at Tokuma Shoten and finally decided to stand by Studio Ghibli.
"Let's go and see where we will work in the future!"
Miyazaki said that according to the acquisition contract, they would have to go through a period of integration, and their current work location would temporarily be in the animation division of the Shuyou Building until the production of "My Neighbor Totoro" was completed.
“I hope it doesn’t feel like a cubicle.”
Takahata Isao complained quietly that he didn't want to feel like he was in jail. After all, a cartoonist's profession required him to be relaxed and comfortable while working.
As the three of them walked into the hall, Xing Jiahua immediately stepped forward and greeted them:
"Good morning, is this Mr. Hayao Miyazaki, Mr. Takahata Isao, or Mr. Suzuki Toshio?"
It was obvious that Xing Jiahua had recognized the identities of the three people.
"We are!" Suzuki Toshio was the more active one among the three. He said to Xing Jiahua, "We received a message from Minister Gosho Aoyama and came to Shuyou to report."
"Hi, Director Qingshan has also notified the front desk. Next, I will lead everyone to visit the Shuyou Building, and then take everyone to the animation department." Xing Jiahua smiled brightly, "I am the head of the administrative department-Xing Jiahua!"
"Nice to meet you." X3
After a round of bows, Xing Jiahua did not take the group directly to the elevator. Instead, she started from the stairs and led the three people up the stairs floor by floor.
"The first floor is our reception and showroom, with many reception rooms and a large exhibition hall that can accommodate press conferences and various ceremonies."
"The second floor is the entertainment division of Shuyou, which focuses on brokerage business. You can often see popular idols, such as Kudo Shizuka and Ito Junko, etc."
"The third floor is the Shuyou Film Division, which includes offices, editing rooms, storage rooms, etc. However, most of the team members will work at the filming base in Ota District. The permanent ones are colleagues from the publicity department, and directors come more often during the post-production period."
"The fourth floor is tentatively scheduled to be the music department. Currently, the business and entertainment divisions have been merged and have not yet been separated."
The idol industry is not a long-term career, but the music industry is popular all over the world. In the future, artists who transform into professional singers will be here. Currently, the full-time singers of Shuyou are only Ozaki Yutaka and Sakai Izumi.
"Ah, we're on the fifth floor," Xing Jiahua led a few people to the fifth floor, "This floor is the animation department. I won't take you on a tour of this floor. Director Qingshan will lead you there himself."
"The sixth floor is for the General Affairs Department and the Finance Department, and the top floor is where the three top executives' offices are: Director Yoshimura Otomo, Director Idou Shuichi, and Chairman Naoki Nagayama."
Xing Jiahua saw Qingshan Gangchang coming over, and quickly quickened her speech to explain the functions of the upper two floors, and then greeted Qingshan Gangchang:
"Minister Qingshan, I'm here to bring up the three newcomers to your department!"
". Why is Hana-chan so strange all of a sudden?" Aoyama Gosho came over with a smile, "Didn't you always call me Gosho before?"
"After all, this is the first time for a new member to come to TreeFriends, so naturally we have to be more formal."
Xing Jiahua also smiled and explained,
"Then my mission is over. I leave these three to you!"
"Good~"
Seeing Xing Jiahua's figure disappear, Qingshan Gangchang said to the three people,
"Ha, you are new here, so you may feel a little strange. Actually, after getting familiar with each other, everyone in Shuyou is easy to get along with. Usually there is no strict hierarchy between superiors and subordinates. This is the corporate culture that started with Naoki-san."
"."
Miyazaki Hayao, Takahata Isao and Suzuki Toshio looked at each other but said nothing.
They have also worked in old companies such as Toei and Tokuma Shoten, and have deep feelings about Japan's workplace culture. However, they do not believe that a company is a big family and that everyone is a family. These are all lies!
If we are a family, then why can't we spend the money earned by the company!
Gosho Aoyama did not ask them to integrate right away, but instead took them on a tour of the animation division:
"Our department was established not long ago, only about half a year. Currently, apart from me and Togashi Yoshihiro as superiors, there is no other management. Ah, the animation department is in charge of Shuichi-san, but the main direction is determined by Naoki-san."
“These are all painters who just came in.”
Gosho Aoyama introduced the painters who were busy painting in the large open space, as well as the animation production area after the block division, the large picture machine, etc.
This is a one-stop production line from comic drawing to animation production.
It is spacious, well-divided, and filled with the scent of ink and paper. It is a very good office environment.
Gosho Aoyama brought a few people to an independent office space divided by a frosted glass curtain wall. Inside were three rows of open desks and independent offices. After entering, the sounds from outside could no longer be heard.
"This is your office area. People you will recruit in the future will also work here."
Aoyama Gosho said,
"Naoki-san has already told us that your current job is to produce My Neighbor Totoro. You can bring in the manpower and materials. The tools in the office have already been moved here by a moving company!"
"."
Hayao Miyazaki, Isao Takahata and Toshio Suzuki silently looked around this bright, spacious and clean office area, which was much more spacious than their small studio in Koganei City.
The original studio, which was full of manuscripts, drawing tools, and various reference books, now seems very spacious after being moved here.
Does everyone like that kind of crowded working environment? It's because there is no money!
"Where is Naoki-san?" Miyazaki Hayao asked, "We should go and thank him."
"Uh," Aoyama Gosho said helplessly, "Naoki-san is currently preparing to go on vacation, so he is not in the company. Maybe he won't show up for a long time."
"Generally speaking, when Naoki-san is not around, if you have any needs, you can directly ask the General Affairs Department. If you need a budget application, submit it to me and then ask Shuichi-san to approve it."
"."
Miyazaki Hayao didn't quite believe it.
"For such a large Shuyou Group, Chairman Naoki Nagayama rarely comes to the company?! Can this be managed?"
"You can't say that."
Aoyama Gosho was a little embarrassed. He could only see Naoki-san about once a week. He helped Naoki Nagayama to make up for it.
"Naoki-san has many companies and is usually very busy. He can't always be in the same company."
"Our Shuyou Group's executive CEO is Yoshimura Otomo, the head of the company. He is always in the company."
"Oh"
Takahata Isao asked,
"So our original painting is done, who will confirm it?"
"Of course you guys do it! Just like the final person responsible for the drawings of Slam Dunk was me and Yoshihiro Togashi."
Aoyama Gosho said,
"Naoki-san has said that you are an independent and free team, and you are responsible for the final result!"
"You give us so much freedom?" Suzuki Toshio asked in surprise, "Aren't you afraid that the effect will be bad?"
"Haha, don't doubt people when you employ them, and don't employ people you don't trust. This is Naoki-san's principle!"
Speaking of this, Gosho Aoyama is very proud that Naoki Nagayama will not interfere with their usual creations.
"Moreover, after selling your own team project, you will get a certain percentage of the commission, which is directly given to you as a share of your own team! In addition to the basic salary, the better the project results, the higher your income will be!"
"The commission is several times the salary!"
"!!!"
Why don’t employees work hard? It’s because they haven’t been paid enough! ! !
If a company makes money but doesn't raise employees' salaries, then what does the company's success have to do with its employees? !
Many bosses don't want to share money with their employees, but instead want their employees to work like slaves. This is something only feudal landlords would do!
"Well, three of you."
Aoyama Gosho said,
"Today, get familiar with the office environment and adapt to it. After get off work, we will go have a drink to welcome you!"
"Okay. You can arrange your time accordingly!"
Having said that, Aoyama Gosho stepped out on his own, leaving the huge space to the three of them.
Hayao Miyazaki, Isao Takahata and Toshio Suzuki looked at each other, found their seats and sat down, doing nothing for a while.
I originally thought that since Shuyou spent a high price to acquire Ghibli, he must valued us very much. I didn't expect that he valued us very much. The office area and office facilities were all ready, and we even had a lot of autonomy in project production. It was almost no different from the original place.
But if you say you don’t take it seriously, then you really don’t take it seriously!
When the three key members reported, Naoki Nagayama was gone, and even Shuichi Ido didn't show up. He was only received by a minister. And after he was taken to the office area, he was left alone!
Is this a new way of management? ! It all depends on the self-consciousness of the employees?
Suzuki Toshio finally expressed his feelings:
"So, this place seems pretty good, huh?"
"Yeah." Takahata Isao rocked in the ergonomic chair, looking very comfortable, "This chair is also very comfortable."
“So, what do we do next?”
Toshio Suzuki asked after experiencing it for a while.
The three of them looked at each other, and then Miyazaki Hayao spoke:
“Let’s draw My Neighbor Totoro!”
“Let’s start with the story.”
Therefore, excellent talents (oxen and horses) all bring their own food. No, they all have extremely strong self-motivation!
As long as you fertilize them and leave them there, they will grow on their own and then bear abundant fruit!
As a boss, just harvest on time!
