Section 33 Staff

Mr. Spencer's official position in New York gave Ai Fei a great inspiration: With his relationship with him, can he get some help from him in the next costume conference? He hasn't thought about what specific help is, but there are many friends and multiple ways!

Spencer showed him a little terrified: "Ai Jun, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, nothing." Ai Fei shook his head randomly: "Oh, by the way, I have given myself an English name, Aike. It's so inconvenient to always call people 'Aijun'!"

Spencer burst into laughter: "Ike? It seems to be a good name?"

“…”

"Okay, then, can I call you by Ike in the future?"

"This is my friend and a good helper in my work in the United States, Mr. Tom Wallace."

The two men greeted each other, and a familiar figure suddenly flashed across the corner of Ai Fei's eyes, and he quickly said, "I'm sorry, I'm missing a little!" and immediately chased after him.

When he walked behind, he looked at the other person's back and didn't dare to confirm it very much: "Uh... I'm sorry? I'm sorry? Madam?"

"Yes?" The lady in front turned around and the two of them looked at each other and were stunned: "It's you? What do you want to buy this time? Are my nephew and niece?"

Standing in front of him was the ponytail and braided lady! Ai Fei smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, when I saw your back... I wanted to come over..."

"What?"

Unexpectedly, the other party was still like this. He was full of resentment towards him. Ai Fei sighed quietly: "It's nothing, I'm sorry, I'm disturbing you."

"Uh..." The ponytail called him again: "I'm sorry, no matter what you have done... it's just a commercial transaction. I shouldn't talk to you in such a tone. It should be that I say sorry to you."

Ai Fei smiled and reached out to her: "Ike."

"Rolling Stewart." The ponytail finally shook hands with him: "You are also from the country..."

Ai Fei didn't want to explain too much, but just perfunctorily said: "Yes, or is it the first time I know there are such animated movies in China! Are you the same?"

"Yes. I like to watch. Animated movies. When I was screened "Snow White", I was too young, and I couldn't even remember whether I had watched them myself! So... do you know?"

Ai Fei smiled: "Can you remember this time?"

"…………!” Rowling glared at him and finally burst into laughter.

"So, is Mrs. Clint okay now?"

"Very good. She's very good."

"..." Ai Fei really didn't know what to talk to the other party, so he took out a business card from his pocket awkwardly: "This is my business card... If Mrs. Clint or you have any needs, you can call me. If I can do it, I will not refuse."

Rowling took the business card and looked down: "Designer? Are you a fashion designer?"

Ai Fei scratched his head awkwardly: "I can't be considered a good designer anymore. Some works that are rarely and are not famous."

"Haha... well. We'll contact you if you need it. Then, goodbye. Mr. Ike."

"Goodbye. Miss Stewart."

After seeing Stewart off, the screening was in full swing. It was already the time for the reporters to take action. In addition to the guests of Warner, who were responsible for introducing this movie, Mr. Walt Disney, as a leader in the field of American cartoons, naturally received more attention: his attitude is the most important comment related to the film's position in the hearts of professionals!

"...Yes, my first feeling was very surprised. I never knew that such a story could be made in an animation way... Well, anyone who knows me would know that I absolutely have no offense. I am just saying that a fact, like countless Americans have seen it, I believe many people have watched a Western-style movie, but it is presented in an animation way? I believe that for Jack, Albert and Harry Warner, this is another screen image they have dug out after Zero Dingtin that can achieve great success in the market! For those who come to the Gothic Circle Theater to enjoy the film today, what you see is an animation that can have a huge impact in the United States in the future - this influence can be compared with the success of any successful cartoon or live-action film!"

"Did you mean that the success of "Naughter" is a video that is comparable to the "Snow White" you made?"

This time Mr. Disney did not give a positive response, but just smiled faintly: "I think the most important thing that the success of the film can achieve is its production team. Our Japanese guests are there, why not interview them?"

When we deal with the suffocation, when we returned to Prince Hotel after the celebration meeting, everyone came to Fuji Takeuchi's room again. Maybe because of drinking some wine, everyone was a little excited, and even Ankang Toriyu, who was always cold and arrogant, was no exception. The animation department was always responsible for Ai Fei's departure!

As always, Yumiya Jingzi made coffee for everyone and placed it in front of everyone: "Mr. President?"

"Ah, thank you." Ai Fei didn't drink, and was relatively sober. He was about to tell everyone about the next step of production. Fuji Takeuchi spoke first: "Mr. President, I just now and Jack Warner of Warner... Is it really annoying. Is American names always so difficult to pronounce?"

"Haha..." Everyone laughed softly.

"...He told me that he hopes to get more rights to introduce animation videos. Of course, we have to conduct serious negotiations on the specific price. Mr. President, what about your opinion?"

“What if I said I would reject the request from American guests?”

"Reject?" Fuji Takeuchi's alcohol sobered up a little: "Hi Yi! Your decision is an order! I... I will definitely execute it seriously! But why?"

Ai Fei smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I knew you would definitely ask this. Well, let me briefly explain: I believe the box office of the "Naru" movie version in the United States will be very high. Correspondingly, the magazine's distribution numbers in the United States will also have a qualitative leap. I think there will be no big problem with increasing sales of 50, which is all positive news. Let's talk about the negative ones. Naruto is different from the crayon cat. The latter two are used to please readers with a relaxed and happy writing style. Whether Americans or Japanese people will find it funny and fun. However, Naruto is not. It shows a story of a boy gaining strength. Of course, there are also humorous scenes, but they are just embellishments, not themes."

"…………… Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Kakashi and others in Naruto, and other characters have completely inclined to the Eastern style, not to mention the endless ninjutsu battle moves inside. In the eyes of Americans, it is difficult for Americans to understand the mystery. At first, they will find it fun and beautiful, but over time, the lack of understanding caused by cultural differences will become an obstacle."

"So... Mr. President, this time the theatrical version?"

"I'm about to say that. This time, "Naruto Theater Edition" can almost be regarded as an exception in production, which greatly highlights the roles of the two main characters Naruto and Shizumo Hime. You have also noticed that Sasuke, Sakura, Kakashi and others have pitifully few scenes, and the story arrangement of the two protagonists also has a very strong American western style. All of the above greatly satisfy the American mentality at the heart level! Success is only a matter of minutes! But if you think you can cater to the Americans in this way and relax your grasp of the Japanese market, you are absolutely wrong! Don't forget that Japan is the market share we need to strive for!"

"Then..." Yumiya Iko spoke timidly: "Mr. President, can we create a...production team separately, specifically describe Naruto? I mean, use him as the protagonist to create a story about him?"

Such an idea made Ai Fei a little stunned: "You mean, let go of other people?"

"No, no. I mean..." Facing everyone's eyes, Yumiya Iko smiled shyly and swallowed the rest of the words back.

"Nothing, you keep talking."

"Hi Yi!" With his encouragement, Ayami Iko mustered up the courage: "Of course it's not just Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Kakashi, Xiaoli, Gaara, Orochimaru and others can also appear, but the absolute protagonist can be Naruto and other different girls..."

"Well……?"

"I'm sorry, I just thought about it randomly. I can't think of anything else."

Ai Fei really felt that Yugong's words made some sense, so he turned his head to look at Niaoyu Ankang: "Hey, Niaoyu, what do you think of Yugong's opinions?"

After listening to this for a long time, Touyu's alcoholic spirit gradually faded a lot: "I think Yumiya's words make some sense. Of course, her opinions can only exist in the production of the theater version. Normal magazine serialization should be based on the appearance of more characters."

"uh-huh?"

"Hi! In my opinion, the greater reason for the success of the Naruto movie is what the president said. Americans have never seen such a way of expressing stories in this way, and have a novel feeling. I think that if possible, Americans will also shoot some animated films with similar themes. Compared with them, our animated films are still at a very disadvantage. So, my opinion is that instead of over-careing to the viewing mentality of American audiences and Americans, it is better to focus more on the Japanese market, after all, it is our hometown!"

"continue."

"Hi Yi. When talking about the issues in the United States, I think it should be more about referring to the opinions of the United States. Compared with us, the other party has more say in the market. That's my opinion."

Ai Fei nodded: "Niyujun is right. Americans still have more say in their own market. Let me add one more thing: In addition to works like Naruto, you might as well make a theater version of Crayon Shin-shi. This kind of purely funny anime story is easy to be recognized no matter which country or race."

Although Ayami Iko was reluctant to part with Ai Fei, after his half-order and half-pleading, the latter could only choose to act with the large army. He walked out of the Central Subway Station in New York and got into the car driven by Spencer. One of the few took the cigarettes handed over by the latter and took a deep breath.

"I heard from Fuji-kun that you are doing fashion design in the United States now?"

"Yes! A job I always like, but never had the chance to do." He played the cigarette: "But it was very unsuccessful. I mean, the first experiment."

"experiment?"

“Yes, the first time was on Valentine’s Day, at Lizi Hotel…”

"Wait!" Spencer stopped him thoughtfully: "Is it your work when a female model attended the fashion show?"

"You know this, too?"

"Haha..." Spencer smiled bitterly: "Of course I know! You are Japanese and may not be particularly interested in this kind of news. In short, the special designs of female models you launched at the fashion show have simply caused a sensation in New York! Almost all similar fashion conferences will be chosen the way you launched!"

"So this is the main reason for my failure!" Ai Fei snorted: "It only made others notice the existence of models, but completely forgot that the costumes are what I want them to pay attention to."

"I get it. Your clothes...the clothes you designed are not getting what you deserve...the attention, is that right?"

"Yes. So I'm going to experiment again. However, it will be very different from the last time. At least I can't experience similar difficulties again. I really can't bear another failure."

"Yes, yes..." Spencer sucked a few puffs of cigarettes: "So, what can I help you?"

"I hope you can help me find one or several experienced tailors. I always have to find a tailor to make my new design clothing, right?"

"This is probably difficult. Ike, you should know that many experienced tailors are practicing themselves. They basically do some jobs to take orders and are not willing to work for others."

"I also know this. Even Daha Changjiu couple in Fujihi Village are unwilling to give up their small workshop and come to my studio."

"The river lasts forever?"

"It was my partner last time, responsible for making clothes for me." Ai Fei explained a few simple words: "If you say this, there is no other way?"

"Oh!" Spencer nodded in understanding: "However, if you don't have very high requirements for clothing, I think I can still find some young people who have just walked out of school for you."

“…………”

“Yes, some places similar to housekeeping schools and church schools, cut courses are one of their compulsory courses. If you can keep things in mind in design, I think they are also very likely to meet your needs.”

"It seems to be a good choice..." Ai Fei was obviously interested: "They will not have big problems with professional skills. It's just that the style of the clothing is very different from what you can often see, but this is not the main problem. Can you please contact me when will I contact me?"

"No problem, I will contact you. Oh, where is the model's choice?"

"I will solve the model's problem myself."

Looking at the reserved and serious look of the girls standing in front of him, Ai Fei smiled bitterly: Is this the model Spencer found for him? It’s really worthy of coming from the church school, with such a serious expression?

Not only did he feel this way, but even Spencer who brought them, he smiled bitterly - in front of these girls, he didn't even dare to smoke! He stood straight, and he looked like a good baby: "Ike..."

"Ah, yes." Ai Fei then realized. No matter what, he had to say something: "Ladies..."

“…………”

Fortunately, it seems that they have no objection to such a title. Ai Fei is a little bolder: "I don't want to waste each other's time. The situation is like this: I am a Japanese, and if any of you have any resistance to working for me, I will never be angry or blame me."

"..." The girls looked at each other, but they didn't expect that he would use such words as the opening remark: "Sir, I think, whether it is Japanese or American, in the eyes of God, they are people under the light of benevolence."

Ai Fei was so angry that he was not going to preach to me, right? He shook his head quickly: "No? That's great. Let's talk about the topic. I am a fashion designer. I have some relatively novel understandings about clothing, whether it is men's clothing or women's clothing. Uh... If you want to, you will see it in your future work. Well, this time, the purpose of asking you is to ask you to change the clothing I designed from the existence of pictures to real clothes. I will be responsible for purchasing the raw materials of the clothing. What you have to do is to cut according to different sizes. As for which piece of clothing, what size will be used, a detailed list will be given in the future. How about it, are you willing to accept this job?"

"……………” The girls stared at him with different colors of eyes widened, but no one spoke.

"Oh, yes, there's the last thing about your salary. According to the time you work with me, you'll be given a weekly salary of $10 a day. On Saturdays and Sundays, your salary will double."

"Double means double the amount of $10?" Behind the girls in front, a weak voice sounded.

"Yes, that's what it means. And, on holidays, you will be asked to work overtime for three times the price. I mean, for example, the upcoming Easter, the future Independence Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and the New Year. Of course, if my studio can still exist at that time."

A humorous teasing made the girls raise their lips: "…………!”

"How is it, is there any problem?"

“…………”

"No? That's so good." Ai Fei looked at them with a smile: "Now, can you tell me your name?"
