How to raise a random guy's wife

“What we just did are the basics of a producer, just like you need to have a computer before you can write a novel. But there is still a lot to learn if you want to write a good novel.” Kobayashi Sora explained further, “Compared to these practical skills, there are many silent practical skills, which are the work that cannot be seen, cannot be quantified, and have no standard answers.”

"for example?"

"For example, the building of interpersonal relationships."

“Ah…” Kasumigaoka Utaha understood. “This definitely requires Eri. How did you handle it before?”

Kobayashi Sora succinctly stated, "coercion and enticement."

"Okay, anything else?"

"Understand other people's values."

“It’s definitely important; without understanding, there’s no way to communicate.” Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded. “Megumi is much better at this than you—how did you handle it before?”

Kobayashi Sora repeated her previous answer, "coercion and bribery."

"...Anything else?"

"comminicate."

"It's still something Hui excels at. You used to... use threats and inducements, didn't you?"

“That’s right.” Kobayashi Sora typed on the keyboard, entering various information. “In addition, there’s the matter of sticking to the work, which is your and Eriri’s responsibility. As for taking into account the target audience and demographics of the work, controlling the budget, and confirming the identities of various parties, those are things I need to pay attention to.”

Is there anything else?

"There are also things you want to do, even if they are not work, you should still pay attention to them. Similarly, there are your own career plans and your own life."

"You'll have to rely on yourself for all of this."

"These are the parts that Hui and I will complete together."

"Tsk." Kasumigaoka Utaha glared at him. "I'm going to write my text."

People these days are bombarded with displays of affection without any warning.

Before you know it, it's all over your face.

The busy day quickly came to an end. Kobayashi Sora drove Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri home. They were the type who were more used to working from home, or rather, working at Kobayashi Sora's house, so they didn't have to work overtime at the company like the UWANPICTURES employees. As long as they kept in touch and submitted their work results on time, that was enough.

After picking up Kobayashi Ran from kindergarten and dropping Kobayashi Megumi and Kobayashi Ran off at home, Kobayashi Sora immediately set off for the next destination.

Led by a burly man with Rin Tohsaka tattooed on his chest, Sora Kobayashi finally met the culprit behind all the trouble—producer Sato.

The other person appeared to be a fairly honest and reliable adult male, whose hair and clothes were somewhat disheveled, and whose expression showed panic.

“Mr. Sato,” Kobayashi Sora greeted him with a smile, her eyes crinkling into crescents, “You must be tired from your journey.”

"You...you are..." Sato's voice trembled slightly, "Kobayashi Sora?"

"Looks like I can save time on introducing myself."

"How...how did you find me?"

"According to the six degrees of separation theory, you are no more than six people away from any other stranger. In other words, you can get to know any stranger through a maximum of six intermediaries. The key is to find the connections between people, which may be strong or weak and are randomly distributed. Fortunately, no one's behavior is random and unpredictable. A thorough understanding of probability calculations, human psychology, and the known temperament of any individual can greatly reduce the variables. I myself know at least 58 ways to reduce the seemingly infinite random possibilities to the fewest possible variables."

"what?"

"Simply put, as long as you're still active, I can find you," Kobayashi Sora concluded. "As long as you're alive and can move."

"What...what do you mean?" Sato glanced at the burly men around him.

"This is not a threat, just a simple explanation." Kobayashi Sora chuckled, her upturned lips seeming ready to flick out a snake's tongue at any moment. "I came here to meet you. I won't do anything illegal. You can leave whenever you want."

Chapter 579 Step by Step

"Are you serious?"

"Why do you think I'm joking?" Kobayashi Sora asked back. "Is it because you yourself are like a joke, so you assume everyone else is like you?"

Sato looked as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.

Being lectured by someone so much younger than yourself is not a good experience.

Especially when you are in the wrong and there are several burly men standing next to the other party.

"Wake up! Breaking the law and violating regulations without considering the consequences just for short-sighted gains is only suitable for someone as narrow-minded as you." Kobayashi Sora waved his hand. "Go if you want to leave."

Sato tentatively stood up. "Then... shall I leave?"

"please."

Sato carefully passed the burly men and, finding that they showed no signs of stopping him, felt slightly relieved.

After calming down, Sato thought back for a moment.

It seems those burly men really didn't stop him.

But having done something wrong, he was too afraid to move when he saw such a group of people surrounding him.

That's not right...

Sato paused, "Can you tell me why?"

Kobayashi Sora smiled. "The reason?"

"You found me, yet you're letting me go." Sato was puzzled. "Even if you're very capable, finding me must have taken a lot of effort, right? Besides, I took so much money with me..."

Even if you're going to let him go, shouldn't you at least get your money back first?

It turns out that Kobayashi Sora seemed to have only come to meet him once.

What is the picture?

Just for fun?

“People’s personalities and habits change to some extent at different stages of life,” Kobayashi Sora said calmly. “If it were the old me, I might have taken some action. But now…” With an almost sorrowful expression, he shook his head. “That little bit of money is really nothing, so I don’t even have the intention to deal with you. I just feel sorry for you.”

"..." Sato opened his mouth, but said nothing.

They didn't dare to say it.

I had no choice but to turn around and leave.

"You're really letting him go?" The burly man with Rin Tohsaka tattooed on his chest frowned. "According to the rules of the underworld..."

"Now that you've opened a bubble tea shop, don't worry about the rules of the underworld." Kobayashi Sora casually opened a bottle of Ramune soda. "How's business lately?"

"Small profits but quick turnover, earning a meager living through hard work."

"The key in the early stages is location, and the key in the later stages is branding. Use the slogan of 'small profits but quick turnover' and have one or two blockbuster products, even if it's just lemonade or orange juice, it's enough to make a profit." Kobayashi Sora sipped his soda. "Don't follow his example."

"Run away with the money? That's stupid." The burly man was all brawn and no brains. "What's this little bit of money? The best is yet to come."

"So I was wondering before, what could have made him make such a decision?" Kobayashi Sora's eyes narrowed slightly. "He clearly had a bright future ahead of him, yet he ruined it all himself. Did something happen to his family?"

"Yeah..." the burly man said curiously, "And then what happened?"

"do not know."

"You don't know?" The burly man was taken aback. "Is there information you can't find out?"

"Not checked."

Why isn't it being investigated?

“He didn’t consider my feelings or the feelings of the company he cheated when he ran away, so why should I consider his past now?” Kobayashi Sora replied. “If it turns out that something really happened to his family, it will affect my mood in dealing with him.”

"So you were planning to deal with him? You should have said so earlier. I'll have someone bring him back right now."

“Take it slow.” Kobayashi Sora shook his head. “It always takes time.”

After checking the footage, total seconds, and total number of shots, Kobayashi Sora met with the production team and began working on the incense burner.

The so-called incense tray table used to be a kind of table used on stage and film shooting sets. It recorded the names of all the actors' roles, their entrances and exits, and information such as which actors and props were needed for each scene. All of this information was clearly summarized on the table.

The actors and props in the animation are drawn by the animators according to the settings, and then colored by the colorists. The background and weather are drawn by the artists. Although the content is different, the role of the incense burner in the animation production is basically the same as that of the performance and filming site.

After confirming the shot content with the performance team, Kobayashi Sora contacted the key animators to assign their respective responsibilities, and filled in the incense tray form with information such as scene, number of shots, person in charge, time, location, content, character, costume, accessories, and notes.

While we were talking, my phone vibrated slightly.

Kobayashi Sora made a pause gesture, glanced at the message, and then opened a webpage to browse.

“Director Fukase,” Kobayashi Sora smiled slightly, “we can proceed as previously agreed.”

Has the trial ended?

“Sato did not appear in court, and we won the case,” Kobayashi Sora replied. “The publicly available legal documents are now available.”

"Okay, I'll go now."

Kobayashi Sora nodded and said to the others, "I'll make another call."

This call was made to Megumi Kobayashi of RER.

With Kobayashi Sora serving as the producer here, Kobayashi Megumi needs to oversee things at RER.

"Now we're in the second phase."

"Okay, I'll get started now." Kobayashi Megumi paused. "What are we having for dinner?"

"Hmm..." Kobayashi Sora began to ponder.

Megumi Kobayashi reminded everyone, "Except for me."

"I didn't expect this..."

"I was afraid you hadn't thought of that."

When Kasumigaoka Utaha passed by, she saw Kobayashi Sora with a sly smile on her face.

Reluctantly hanging up the phone, Kobayashi Sora looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had a strange expression, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Kasumigaoka Utaha waved her hand. "I was just doing research."

"By the way, about the audio."

“It’s all done,” Kasumigaoka Utaha replied. “After all, she’s a professional voice actress, very capable. She completed it efficiently after a little explanation.”

"That's good."

"The first step was to ensure the quality of the animation," Kasumigaoka Utaha recalled. "The second step... I think it was to promote it?"
