At the meeting of new employees, Qin Han, the "big boss" in the animation industry in everyone's eyes, couldn't help but say something to inspire morale, and then took them to visit the company's office space in person.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the new employees also brought some distance between them and the big boss.

Of course, for Qin and Han dynasties, they also had a close contact with Hideaki Anno, the famous Hideaki Anno in his previous life.

In his memory, this person with messy hair and beard and an irreconcilable animation supervisor, but now his hair is neatly combed and his beard is hanging cleanly, and his whole body looks like a cheerful, sunny and beautiful young man.

Compared to Yuyuki Tono, who is bald and shiny in any world, the changes in Anno Hideaki are really big.

"This is the 2D department, and you will work here in the future. The general affairs assistant will assign a workbench later." Qin Han introduced to them.

Although the income of original artists and animators differs in their income and career status, the work location and working environment are similar. A two-square-meter painting workbench is where these craftsmen create exquisite and delicate hand-painted animations.

3D, photography, coloring and other departments are on other floors. Supervisors and performers can enjoy a relatively independent creative environment, and their working conditions are much higher than those of the artists.

"After you register for the job, you will conduct half a month of training first, and I will assign extremely senior original artists to provide guidance."

There is actually induction training?

Many newcomers from SHAFT feel quite a bit different.

Nowadays, after a newcomer is hired, he often starts to devote himself to animation production immediately. He can only learn and practice slowly from the pile of work, and there is no opportunity to be trained. Just like Shinji Ikari who was driven to the shelves by his father in "EVA" and was on the first-time machine.

This situation is also related to the industry's rapid development period, and the production period is tight and inseparable.

Only a few large-scale animation companies can do on-boarding training.

"Okay, is there anything else to ask?" After explaining many things, Qin Han prepared to leave.

"President." Hideaki Anno suddenly spoke.

After coming to the company, he felt that SHAFT's president Sang seemed to pay special attention to himself and looked at him from time to time. This made Anno Hideaki feel very strange, so it was like taking the opportunity to test it.

"Oh, Anno, is there anything wrong?"

Seeing that this industry leader actually knew his name and was still a new Hideaki Anno, he was a little excited. He asked, "President, what is our job after the training? Will we participate in the production of "Magic Girl Koyuan"?"

Hearing his words, the other newcomers also raised their ears.

Many people join SHAFT because of the title of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan", the popular animation nowadays. Wouldn't it be nice if they could participate in the production in person?

However, Qin Han's words quickly dispelled their expectations.

"The team of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is already perfect and no one else needs to be handed down." Qin Han's words made many people look disappointed.

"However, the next animation of SHAFT has begun preliminary preparations. Although the plan has not been officially finalized, your work will not be short."

"President, what theme is this animation?" Anno Hideaki remembered the rumors he had heard before and asked again.

"I will personally supervise the robot animation, New Year's episode."

Qin Han’s short sentence revealed a lot of information, which surprised many newcomers.

Qin Han looked at the cheerful and sunny young man Hideaki Anno again: "Ano Jun, you are very talented in mechanical painting, work hard."

"It turns out that the president pays special attention to me because of my talent in mechanical painting!" Anno Hideaki was suddenly excited - of course, he didn't guess completely wrong.

"It seems that rejecting Miyazaki Sang's invitation and not going to Ghibli is not a bad idea." Thinking of the various messages I heard before, all of which have been confirmed by Qin Han in person, Anno Hideaki felt that a broad stage was right in front of him, waiting for his talent to be displayed.

Robot animation!

Qin Han personally served as the supervisor!

A big production of the New Year!

Moreover, the style of striving for breakthroughs with SHAFT and not following the ordinary path will definitely not be an ordinary robot animation.

After the new employee's affairs were arranged, Qin Han returned home.

On SHAFT, everything is going smoothly whether it is produced or played by "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan". The game department of Terracotta Warriors and Horses Entertainment is also running smoothly.

The content update of "The Story of Oriental Fantasy Country" has come to an end, and all people can devote themselves to the development of the 3D sandbox game "No Man's Sky".

Qin Han had already received the exact news from Sony Interactive Entertainment that Sony's new generation console PS4 will be launched in Europe and North America in November this year. Needless to say, this is another peak in consumption from Thanksgiving to Christmas.

The Asian version—including Huaxia and Japan—is released in January next year. This is to identify the Chinese Lunar New Year.

So as one of the expected PS4 starts, "Unman's Sky" has nearly a year of production time. With the preliminary planning that started last year, it is still more than enough.

At least, he is confident that something like a missed vote will not happen.

As for "Idol Master", which was produced in collaboration with Sony Music, the production difficulty is much less than that of 3D sandbox games, and the progress is also very smooth. It is expected to be completed in the middle of the year.

In this way, what Qin Han needs to worry about now is the fact that the comic "Midfield Core" will be released in the first volume of the single-line version.

But today is different from the past. When the single version of "Dragon Sakura" was first released, neither Baiquan Club nor himself had any advantage in the fiercely competitive Japanese comics market. Moreover, he joined the sales battlefield on the most intense Christmas and was in a positive direction with many famous works of millions of sales. Therefore, Qin and Han and the editorial department worked hard to promote the promotion, and achieved a beautiful result.

However, this time, the first volume of "Midfield Core" was launched, with a large number of publicity resources from Shueisha as a backing. Even if there were "Detective Conan" and "Kanda Ichiko's Boy" at the same time, due to the different comic types, "Midfield Core" will not have too much competitive pressure.

What's more, at the end of February, the first Japanese Professional Football J League will be about to start.

As a partner of the Japanese Football Association, Qin Han also carried out a lot of joint publicity on "Midfield Core" and the J League, both of which are very famous and popular.
