What are the options for love obstacles in the humanoid Star Platinum's mind?

Taking both into account, the initial budget for the animation of "JOJO" could be as high as one billion.

You should know that the production cost of each episode of animation in Japan rarely exceeds 50 million.

Any animation that can maintain a budget of more than 30 million per episode is basically a conscientious masterpiece.

And now, spending 10 billion yen to make a twelve-episode animation, how inhumane it is.

However, the publisher later changed its mind and requested that the number of episodes be increased to twenty-four.

The reason for this is mainly because they are worried that if too much funding is spent, they will be deified by netizens.

As we all know, falling down is not scary, what is scary is falling down from a high place.

If the animated version of "JOJO" fails to meet the expectations of netizens after it is broadcast, it will inevitably attract a lot of public pressure.

By then, fans will turn into passers-by, passers-by will turn into haters, and haters will become loyal and foul-mouthed fans who will never leave...

Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, it is essential to keep a low profile in the early stages.

Fortunately, the "JOJO" comics are long enough, so shooting twenty-four episodes is both reasonable and not abrupt.

Kujo Ditaro had no objection to this.

After all, 10 billion yen is used to make a 24-episode animation, which means 40 million yen can be distributed to each episode. The cost is already at the ceiling of the Japanese animation industry.

Of course, there is always someone better than you.

The king of funding in the Japanese animation industry will always belong to "Duck Karas".

It is said that the budget for the first episode of this animation is around 400 million yen.

Because of the excessive cost, the company of "Duck Karas" was forced to declare bankruptcy after filming three episodes. It was quite tragic.

.......

The broadcast time of the "JOJO" animation is scheduled for January next year.

This decision was made in the last week before the end of Kujo Ditaro's summer vacation.

That’s right, just for these preliminary preparations, Kujo Toitaro negotiated with the publishing house for more than a month.

Fortunately, everything depends on human effort. Whether it is the voice actors, the production company, or the famous director, they are all in place.

In fact, what Kujo Ditaro participated the most in was the selection of voice actors.

What he was most satisfied with was Takehito Koyasu, who voiced the villain.

You know what, when this voice actor opens his mouth, he sounds so perverted that even Kujo Ditaro has to call him an expert.

In addition, he also met several industry elites.

These voice actors are quite famous, and almost all of them have their own unique style in dubbing.

There's a voice actor who, every time he attends a fan meeting, is begged by fans to curse him out loud. It's said that those fans really enjoy being cursed, and from time to time they'll even make unbridled remarks like, "That's it? That's it? Keep on cursing!"

There's also a voice actor with a very sweet voice who often voices strange female characters in her dubbing career. Although those characters are quite popular, she really wants to do some normal work. Maybe it's because of too much accumulated disappointment that she doesn't even smile anymore...

The voice actor world can be very big or very small.

Among the voice actors that Kujo Ditaro has met is Mizuki Momo, who traveled with him to the uninhabited island.

Shui Shumao has a solid foundation in dubbing and is not an unknown minor character.

Kujo Ditaro also gave face and invited Mizuki Mao to audition for the voice actor role in "JOJO".

In the end, Mizushu Mao successfully passed the audition, but due to work schedule issues, she might not be able to play the main role.

In fact, the female characters in "JOJO" don't have many roles, and the focus is mainly on the male characters.

Kujo Ditaro had a wild idea, which was to let Kohei Imamura voice a character.

To be honest, Kohei Imamura has an extraordinary talent in dubbing, and it would be a pity if it were buried.

Of course, Kujo Ditaro will not force and respects Imamura Kohei's personal wishes.

If Kohei Imamura is a potential stock, then Iori Kitahara is the complete opposite, with almost no outstanding points to develop.

Fortunately, there is a hot spring hotel at home that I can inherit, so I don’t have to worry about the future.

Life is about planning. There is no future in just muddling through.

Kujo Ditaro deeply understands this truth.

Therefore, within his ability, he will help those around him, but not too hard.

Otherwise, the beauty of student days will be distorted.

......

On the last day before the end of summer vacation, the number of people in Bilang Town suddenly increased.

A new family, a young mother and daughter, moved in diagonally across from the Kujo family's house.

My mother has a kind face and gentle eyes, which makes people feel gentle.

My daughter is naturally beautiful, with waist-length white hair and a bright light in her eyes.

At this moment, the daughter said goodbye to her mother and came to the door of Kujo's house with a smile on her face.

dong dong.

When Kujo Ditaro opened the door, the girl he saw made him stunned.

"Long time no see, Nayuta."

"Well, Brother Ditaro, I moved across from your house."

Nayuta turned around and pointed.

Kujo Ditaro looked over and said, "Nayuta, this is the center of town."

Nayuta quickly explained, "That's really not what I meant. My parents only told me after they rented it."

Kujo Ditaro smiled and slightly changed the subject.

"You study at a school in this town, right?"

"Yes, it's the school in town."

"This middle school is okay. It's not excellent, but it's not bad either."

Nayuta didn't want to talk about school and suddenly raised her phone.

"Brother Ditaro, take a look, this is the novel I wrote during the summer vacation."

"novel?"

Kujo Ditaro took the phone and asked in confusion, "Why did you think of writing this?"

"Well, I was bored at home, so I wrote this." Nayuta put her hands behind her back and urged, "Big Brother Ditaro, you didn't even read it? You're my first reader."

Upon hearing this, Kujo Ditaro lowered his head to look at his phone.

The novel is quite long and already has one volume.

Kujo Ditaro didn't want to discourage Nayuta's enthusiasm, so he started reading the novel more seriously.

It's okay if you don't look at it, but you'll be shocked when you look at it.

Ten minutes later, there was something strange in the look that Kujo Ditaro gave Nayuta.

"Is this a novel you wrote? You didn't lie to me?"

Nayuta puffed out her cheeks. "Does Ditaro-sama think of me as a shameless person who steals other people's work?"

Kujo Ditaro shook his head, the corners of his mouth rising inertia.

"I didn't expect you to have such talent, Nayuta. Are you interested in becoming a writer?"

Chapter 338: The pornographic book under Nayuta’s bed?

Kujo Ditaro took Nayuta to his own publishing house.

Nayuta's work was highly recognized after being read by Machida Sonoko.

"This child is really good and has great potential. He can be trained to become a treasure of the town."

"what...."

Nayuta stayed close to Kujo Ditaro and looked at Machida Sonoko with some restraint.

Knowing that Nayuta was a junior high school student, Machida Sonoko changed her tone.

"Nayuta, your work is great. Do you want to publish it? Just submit it on time once a month. Our publishing house is very supportive of new authors."

Nayuta didn't rush to answer. She looked up at Kujo Ditaro and asked, "Is this Ditaro-sama's publishing house?"

"I won't hide it from you." Kujo Ditaro put his arm around Nayuta's shoulder and said slowly, "This publishing house is mine, but as you can see from its scale, it's definitely not as big as those well-known publishing houses. You're very talented..."

Nayuta shook her head and interrupted, "Brother Ditaro, since this is your publishing house, as long as you think I can do it, then I will definitely publish the novel here."

Kujo Ditaro smiled with relief, not surprised.

On the contrary, he would be surprised if Nayuta refused.

Machida Sonoko was very satisfied and clasped her hands together and said, "But Nayuta is a minor. If you want to publish your work, you must have parental consent."

"No problem, my mother will agree." Nayuta answered without hesitation, appearing very confident.

Machida Sonoko went to get a document contract and handed it to Nayuta.

After giving some instructions, she pulled Kujo Ditaro aside.

"With such a high level of quality in her first work, she definitely has a bright future. President, if you want to expand your publishing house, you must have a few treasures under your command. So, I mean, sign Nayuta as a person, not a work."

"Nayuta's novel is well written, but aren't you being too hasty?"

"President, I've been in this business for so long, and I rarely make mistakes. As long as Nayuta persists, he will definitely become a master."

In order to convince Kujo Ditaro, Machida Sonoko cited several examples from the light novel industry.

In fact, Kujo Ditaro is also optimistic about Nayuta's potential.

It’s just that he is a junior high school student, and it’s a bit unkind for him to sign such an unfair treaty.

"She's only in middle school. She might not establish herself in the fiction world in the future. Just because she doesn't understand the situation doesn't mean we can push her any further."

Machida Sonoko was so eager to recruit talented people that she was a little confused. After she came to her senses, she quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry, President. I was too excited. It's just that Nayuta has great writing talent, and I'm a little reluctant to let her go. It's like that in the editing industry. Potential authors are sought-after resources, especially such a talented person."

"I understand your intention. Nayuta is underage now and can't make her own decisions. Let's wait until she's an adult. Okay, I'll take her home and let her discuss it with her parents."

After saying this, Kujo Ditaro took Nayuta back.

Nayuta's mother was cooking at home.

When she learned that her daughter was going to write a novel, she was somewhat confused.

Kujo Ditaro took the contract and explained it carefully.

Nayuta's mother, who seemed to understand but not quite, could not help but sit up straight.

"But she's only in junior high school and has to take the entrance exam next year. If she focuses on her hobbies now, I'm afraid she won't perform well on the exam."

"Mom, I won't let my grades fall behind."

Nayuta had just said this when her mother rolled her eyes at her.

"Kid, do you know how important the entrance exam is? Good grades don't guarantee continued success. Besides, a whole summer has already passed. You need to study even harder."

"Mom, you don't understand. I already knew everything they taught me in school. Otherwise, how could I have done so well on the transfer exam?"

"I'm not saying you can't develop hobbies, but I need to review the current situation. Isn't it okay after graduating from junior high school?"

Even though her mother tried to persuade her again and again, Nayuta remained unmoved.

Kujo Ditaro thought about it and said something fair.

"Auntie, Nayuta is very talented. Studying is important, but it wouldn't be a bad thing if she could develop a career. Besides, she only has to submit her manuscript once a month. In fact, if she takes some time every day, she can basically finish it."

"Mom, you saw what Big Brother Di Taro said. Don't you know what kind of person Big Brother Di Taro is?"

Nayuta grabbed Kujo Ditaro's arm and acted like a bully.

Nayuta's mother nodded. "Of course I'm not questioning Di Taro. I know his character and abilities. How about this? You try writing for six months. If your grades don't fall behind in the second year of junior high, I'll allow you to continue. Otherwise, even Di Taro's intercession won't help. Okay?"
