Natsume Rin didn't want to play games with the little girl, so when she saw the train arrive at the station, she walked out calmly.

Senior Aoyama arrived a little earlier than him, but judging by the way she patted her chest and gasped, it wasn't that much earlier.

"Natsume, this way!"

Because she was involved in formal work, Nanami Aoyama gave up the title of senior and junior. If you really want to calculate, Natsume Rin, the original author, has much more say in front of the production team than she, the voice actor.

"So early?"

Natsume Rin walked up to her and looked up at the office building in front of her.

"Many voice actors work part-time, so weekends are the busiest time." Nanami Aoyama explained, then pulled him towards the third floor.

There was a big difference from his last visit. The production crew, which was already on track, was not surprised to see him come in, and the people who were dubbing over there continued.

Natsume Rin took a quick look and found many familiar faces.

Matsuoka God is still voiced by Kiritani Kazuto. Because the development of anime in this world is not perfect, he lacks several heavyweight roles. At this time, the male protagonist who can get a big hit in the industry looks very serious.

Asuna is played by married woman Haruka, whose voice is indeed not suitable for a mature voice like Asuna's.

"If I draw the second sword, no one will be left standing."

Matsuoka Kamishima was imitating the movements of the black-clad swordsman and drawing the sword on the stage. His middle school second-year tone seemed to be exactly like that cheater. The female voice actor who was acting with him couldn't help but laugh, and the atmosphere on the stage became lively.

"Sorry sorry!"

It seemed like Matsuoka Yoshitsugu was still not used to dealing with girls, so he shook his head as if nothing had happened. The director present motioned for everyone to take a break, then walked over to Natsume Rin, raised his hand and shouted.

"Today we have invited Mr. Yan Shang, and we hope he can give us new opinions. If you have any questions about the characters, you can ask the teacher."

Chapter 201: Attitude Follows Reward

Is this being treated as free labor?

Looking at the several voice actors who gathered around her, Natsume Rin immediately raised her hands in surrender: "Even if you have any requests, you have to wait until I finish talking to the director."

"Teacher Yan Shang, I would like to ask for your contact information. It won't take up too much time."

There were some naughty girls jumping out to interrupt, or it could be said that people like Matsuoka Kamishi who suffer from social phobia are a minority in the voice actor industry.

Moreover, this popular voice actor who was afraid of girls, after being trained, his performance on the show was completely different from what it is now.

"Sorry, please let me keep my private account to myself."

He clasped his hands together and faced the group of girls. Director Yamamoto smiled and led him out of the crowd. Nanami Aoyama, who was responsible for calling people, was surrounded by other people and showed a helpless expression.

She certainly couldn't betray Natsume Rin's social media account, but looking at the expressions of the seniors around her, she secretly groaned in her heart, feeling that she was going to be severely teased by everyone.

Director Yamamoto is probably in his forties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He is the kind of middle-aged man who would stand out from the crowd without any special features.

If he hadn't introduced himself as a director, he would be no different from an ordinary office worker.

Simply put, they lack the characteristics that an art practitioner should have, and all the feedback they give people is bland.

Even if it was Natsume Rin, even if he didn't show it deliberately, one could still feel his unusual temperament. No matter what experience had formed it, he could be seen as different from others in the eyes of others.

"It turns out that Mr. Enjo is really just a high school student. I thought others were joking."

They found a table in the back and sat down. Director Yamamoto poured him some water himself. Instead of dwelling on the extent of the presentation of the original work, they started talking about the author's age.

"Isn't this normal? After all, I found the publishing house after I became famous through publishing on the Internet. I am not subject to the requirements for entering the industry, so my age is naturally younger."

"This has become normal now. It seems that I am really getting old." Director Yamamoto said self-deprecatingly, and then the topic returned to the script.

"What do you think, Mr. Yan Shang? If you feel that the parts we modified are inappropriate, you can bring them up for further discussion, but then the artists will protest."

He was joking as he took out a number of original drawings from a briefcase he had prepared long ago and placed them in front of Natsume Rin.

Natsume Rin had read many manuscripts before, but this was the first time he could see most of the revealed content in advance. He was also curious about the content later, so he leaned back in his chair and quietly flipped through the pages.

Director Yamamoto said nothing, but used his cell phone to instruct his assistant to continue to push forward the work outside.

Their time is not as easy as it seems. The time given by the producers seems to be ample, but when it comes to actually putting it into practice, experienced directors know that they will encounter all kinds of troubles along the way.

I can only say that it’s a good thing they weren’t shooting a movie, otherwise this amount of time would probably only be enough to shoot the beginning.

But not necessarily.

Natsume Rin was very satisfied with the quality of the original painting. It was obvious that a lot of money had been spent on it. And when he saw this, a certain unlucky guy suddenly appeared in his mind.

The story was originally adapted into an animation, but Kasumigaoka-senpai chose to break the contract because she disliked the other party too much.

Maybe I can sell my senior’s work.

He was a guy with strong action ability. Thinking of this, Natsume Rin knocked on the table, attracted the director's attention, and asked unexpectedly: "Does the producer still need a script?"

Yamamoto didn't expect that he didn't talk about his opinion on the original painting, but instead talked about this thing. But he thought that Natsume Rin had an idea for a new work, so he became interested.

Although he doesn't have much interest in the production company, if he can help to connect them, these are all connections.

Don’t think that the island country only has voice actors. If these directors don’t have achievements and connections, they still won’t be qualified to make a movie.

"Does Mr. Yan Shang have a new work?"

Natsume Rin shook her head and told the story of the unlucky senior. Director Yamamoto didn't have the confidence to pat his chest now, and said hesitantly: "A1P has always invested a lot in dramas like the other world. They are not very interested in themes like youth love."

Nonsense!

According to the timeline of the original world, A1P later filmed Four Lies and even won the popular IP Kaguya-sama: Love is War. These are all youth-themed anime.

Moreover, the anime market in the island country is now nothing more than different worlds and various youth series. Which company would give up nearly half of the market in one go?

It was obvious that Director Yamamoto was suspicious when he heard that it was not his work and did not want to help.

Natsume Rin couldn't force it, so she could only observe a moment of silence for Kasumigaoka Utaha for a few minutes. After hearing the director say that he would try to contact the person in charge of this business in the company, she shook hands with him in a friendly manner.

This is right, I can only say that attitude is very important.

"Now we can finally talk about the drama. I can't take up too much of your time, Mr. Enjo. The voice actors outside are still waiting for you."

Natsume Rin shuddered, and the thought of explaining his understanding of the character to so many people gave him a headache.

It’s not that he can’t say anything, but he would rather add the other party’s contact information and send a voice message on the social software, rather than watching the other party line up in such a place and talking one by one.

Very tiring.

Seeing Natsume Rin's eyes rolling around the room, Yamamoto was very curious about what he was doing: "Teacher Enjo, is there a problem?"

"I'm looking for a back door. I'll run away as soon as I talk to the director." Natsume Rin shrugged. Yamamoto was stunned and then burst into laughter.

Since he showed such resistance, this explanation activity had to be cancelled. After hearing Natsume Rin's acceptable request, Yamamoto took the initiative to ask for his account and prepared to give it to several leading actors, so that he could be added if necessary.

Regarding the plot, Natsume Rin's only request is that the original plot should not be tampered with too much. He also has no objection to making deletions or adding some interesting interactions to cater to the animation audience.

As long as his final reward is in his pocket, Natsume Rin speaks very gently.

When they came out, the work in the recording studio was still going on. Nanami Aoyama was standing there dubbing. When she saw Natsume Rin, she blinked and waved goodbye to him.

In fact, he didn't go far. He just sat downstairs and waited for Nanami Aoyama to come down after finishing her work this morning, and then accompanied her to have lunch.

"Thank you, Natsume-kun." Nanami Aoyama clasped her hands together, very grateful to Natsume Rin for cooperating with her.

"If I don't come over, will my senior still be bullied today?" Natsume Rin frowned.

Chapter 202: Yukinoshita Prince

"It's not that exaggerated. We are all very nice people." Nanami Aoyama defended herself. After seeing Natsume Rin's probing eyes, the usually mature her became embarrassed.

"It seems that senior has something to hide." Natsume Rin retracted her gaze and did not intend to continue asking.

Judging from Nanami Aoyama's ability and the situation of Matsuoka and the others, they were definitely not affected by workplace bullying.

Considering that although she was mature, her actual age was only one year older than Natsume Rin, he had a strange idea in his mind.

Could it be that I was instigated by others because I revealed my relationship with him?

"That Natsume-kun, I'm done eating."

Under his increasingly wise gaze, Nanami Aoyama hurriedly finished a few mouthfuls of rice and fled in a panic without looking back.

Huh, he guessed right.

Among the voice actors who followed suit, only Matsuoka took the initiative to add his LINE account. Fortunately, this great actor did not ask questions about the meaning of life, but just talked to him seriously about the character setting of the protagonist.

In order to understand Kiritani's characteristics, Matsuoka read the original work many times. When chatting with him on the phone, he explained it very clearly, and even Natsume Rin was a little surprised.

It seems that Matsuoka Yoshitsugu's language ability has become even more powerful when chatting across a distance.

After confirming his idea about the character, Natsume Rin felt relieved. The next trouble she had to deal with was Kasumigaoka-senpai.

Eriri was right. She would indeed attend the Christmas dance, and the male protagonist was this unlucky guy.

But sister, there is no need to stay here and not leave.

"Ahem, Kasumigaoka-senpai?"

Under the gaze of everyone in the class, Natsume Rin had no choice but to go out and try to take away Kasumigaoka Utaha who was at the door.

This guy appeared here after class, and without saying a word, he scared no one in their class so much that they dared to go out. Shiina Mahiru even looked at Natsume Rin with a sullen face.

"Yeah." She looked at Shiina Mahiru provocatively, then walked up the teaching building with Natsume Rin. When they reached the top floor and there were no people around them, she stated her goal.

"Eri should have told you about the school dance."

"Correct."

"Then you are my dance partner. Don't think about escaping or making excuses. I know very well that you have time that day." Kasumigaoka Utaha poked his chest with a very affirmative tone.

"…That's how it's settled."

Natsume Rin sat on the chair of the service club and answered the questions of the two classmates sincerely about what happened.

"You didn't even try to resist, Natsume-san. I doubt your feelings."

"You're still doubting it? Isn't this a complete scumbag?"

With each word, they characterized Natsume Rin and then made a decision to silence him.

"In order to prevent someone from having an accident at the dance, we decided to go along as well!"

Looking at the complacent Shiina Mahiru, Natsume Rin touched his head, feeling quite confused.

"Have you found a dance partner?"
