"My name is Wu Lan."

"My name is Su Yi. We are all international students from China, and we are currently students in the subject of imaging design at Musashino University of Fine Arts."

In today's era, it is not uncommon for Chinese students and residents to stay in Japan, so after Wu Lan and Su Yi introduced themselves, no one was surprised by their foreign identity.

Moreover, I heard that the two people came from Musashino, one of the three major art universities in Japan, and many people even showed admiration.

For example, Hideaki Anno.

Although the Osaka University of Arts where he is now studying is also a relatively well-known art university, Kansai's educational resources are incomparable to Tokyo, which gathers elites across the country and even the world. Secondly, the image planning subject he takes does not require a cultural course, but only a professional course.

Compared to Mida Musashino, who has stricter admissions, I always feel that it is a little worse.

Hideaki Anno and Toshio Okada were ordinary among a group of chapels attending the party, and Wu Lan and Su Yi did not look at them for a few more times.

However, if Qin Han were present, he would probably be happy again because he saw two celebrities.

In his previous life, Toshio Okada was called the "King of Otaku". He systematically summarized the concept of "Otaku" and carried forward it.

In that era when the entire society criticized the Azai group due to the Miyazaki Kin's murder and the entire animation industry suffered a huge blow, it was Okada Toshio who stood up and made a voice for the Otaku, a niche group that was excluded and discriminated against by society.

It can be said that after that, the Otaku culture was able to gradually get rid of prejudices and discrimination in the mainstream of society and even became a popular popular subculture. Okada Toshio made his own unique contributions.

Of course, in addition to this, Toshio Okada is also one of the founders of the well-known animation company GAINAX, and was also a like-minded partner of Hideaki Anno during his entrepreneurial period.

Although, due to different business philosophy and the accumulation of various contradictions, Okada Toshio was kicked out of GAINAX by Hideaki Anno and Hiroyuki Yamaga, which is known in history as the "Okada Toshio's pursuit and release incident".

But, this is the history of another world.

Now it seems that the young Okada Toshio has a very good relationship with the famous EVA father Hideaki Anno. Otherwise, he would not have come to Kanto from Kansai together.

After ordering drinks and snacks, a group of young people talked freely together, talking about "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" and other favorite animations and comics.

The otakus who met for the first time probably had no common topics besides these.

Later, when talking about their future work plans, everyone's conversation became even stronger.

"Su Yi and I are preparing to graduate, so we go to the animation club to work. After all, our ultimate goal in life is to become animation supervisors. It is estimated that the achievements of Hayao Miyazaki will never be achieved in his life. As long as we can make a few animations that are thirty years later, we will be taken out by old otakus from time to time to talk about and remember, it is enough." Wu Lan said.

"The animation is talked about thirty years later, and the standard is not low..." Okada Toshio smiled, "But your ideals are similar to Anno. He also wants to become the animation supervisor. Moreover, this time he seems to be ahead of you."

"Okada, don't talk about everything?" said Hideaki Anno.

"Is this a good thing? Is there anything I can't talk about?"

Everyone immediately became interested and looked at Okada Toshio: "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

Okada Toshio said in an Osaka accent: "This time, Anno and I came to Tokyo, one to attend the Japan Science Fiction Conference. The other is that Anno received an invitation from Ghibli to prepare to participate in the production of "The Valley of Wind".

"Ghibli? That Ghibli!?" Everyone stared at Anno Hideaki.

Even if a group of senior otaku knows well-known supervisors and can tell the historical allusions of major animation companies, they are not true insiders.

These people have respect for the industry they yearn for and love.

"It's that Ghibli." Anno Hideaki was a little embarrassed by so many people's eyes. He scratched his hair and said, "I hope this job can continue, because I'm ready to drop out of school."

The determination revealed in these words made Wu Lan and Su shocked.

As Chinese, the two of them have a diploma that Japanese art youth like Hideaki Anno cannot understand. No matter how much they want to pursue their dreams, they have to wait until they graduate from college.

Otherwise, with their familiar relationship with Qin and Han, it would be difficult to find a job as an original artist at SHAFT if they drop out of school. After working hard for a few years, they might be able to advance to senior positions such as photography and painting supervision. Then, if you are lucky, seize an opportunity and become supervisor, it is also very possible.

Hideaki Anno felt the envy of everyone and said, "I have to attend the interview this time when I go to Ghibli. Only after I have completed the internship can I become a full member. Is it possible or not?"

"Anno, you need to have confidence. Everyone has agreed to your paintings, and there will be no problem."

However, some people said with some concern: "But Ghibli is not easy to enter. And I heard that Miyazaki Hayao acts arbitrary and arbitrary. Anno, you have dropped out of school. If you are not hired by Ghibli again, wouldn't it be very troublesome?"

"I guess I will work in Tokyo and apply for jobs at other animation companies. I won't go back to Osaka anyway." Hideaki Anno said, holding the frame.

At this time, Wu Lan had a sudden inspiration and suggested: "If Ghibli is not good, Anno, why don't you try SHAFT?"

"SHAFT?" His words shocked everyone.

Nowadays, whether in the eyes of Japanese animation industry insiders or in the eyes of the vast majority of Azou fans, SHAFT is undoubtedly the most popular animation company this year.

The first time I independently produced a TV animation, I took out a stunning work like "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan", which made the entire industry shake.

Today's gathering was held in the name of the "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan Friends Association". The chastity here is naturally fans of this animation. In their minds, SHAFT is as sacred as Jerusalem in the eyes of the believers of Abrahamic religions.

"As far as I know, SHAFT has no plans to recruit people in the near future, right?" said Toshio Okada, who is well-informed in the industry.

"Although SHAFT has not released any news about recruiting people, Su Yi and I know some inside information." Wu Lan couldn't help but show off.
