Mobile Fighter G Screening

It was another ordinary workday, and Nakayama Takuya's car was parked downstairs at Sunrise Animation.

Several months later, Nakayama Takuya returned to the headquarters of Sunrise.

The smell in the air was completely different from last time.

Thanks to Sega's investment and capital injection, coupled with the newly launched lightweight project Kirby, the anxiety and panic that once weighed on everyone's hearts have now vanished, replaced by a busy and orderly vitality.

Today is an internal screening of <Mobile Fighter G> before its official broadcast. The first three episodes have been completed and need to be reviewed by Fangdai on the Production Committee.

As an important member of the Production Committee, he was naturally Sega's representative.

The conference room was filled with enthusiastic applause.

Representatives from TV Tokyo, Bandai, Sunrise, Sega gathered together.

As soon as Takuya, representing Sega, sat down, Hiroi Shiro, an animation program producer from TV Tokyo, came over to him.

Hiroi was a trusted confidant whom Nakagawa Jun had personally promoted, and he adopted a very humble attitude when he met Takuya.

"Congratulations, Executive Director Nakayama!" Hiroi's face was beaming. "The station has been buzzing with your good news lately. Our little princess from TV Tokyo is about to be snatched away by you."

His words were half flattery and half joke, which drew knowing smiles from the several people around who knew the situation.

Eri holds a pivotal position at TV Tokyo, and her marriage to Nakayama Takuya is undoubtedly a powerful alliance, a tremendous boon for the television station.

"Hiroi-san, don't be so polite." Takuya and shook his hand. After all, he and Eri weren't married yet, and he couldn't be ungrateful for being treated so kindly, especially since it was his future father-in-law's trusted confidant.

On the other side, the head of Bandai's merchandise planning Mitsui Chuta were also sitting there.

Mitsui Chuta saw Takuya, he forced a formulaic smile and simply nodded from afar as a greeting, unlike Hiroi Shiro who came over to greet him.

Takuya understood.

Bandai, this big fish, has been stuck in the mud for months, and it seems it's about to give up.

He returned a polite smile without batting an eye and walked straight to the seat reserved for him.

Although Takuya did not interfere with Sunrise's internal decisions, the strange thing about fate is that Sunrise ultimately chose Imagawa Yasuhiro, the director who was in charge of producing <Mobile Fighter G> in his previous life, to direct this work.

Director Imagawa is standing to the side, looking tense, waiting for the Production Committee to review his work.

Once everyone had arrived, the conference room lights dimmed, and the main feature began.

Soon, the conference room lights went out.

The screen suddenly lit up.

"Gundam Fight! Ready! Go!"

Accompanied by the protagonist Domon Kasshu's highly dynamic movements, a passionate aura, completely different from traditional Gundam, is palpable.

The representatives present looked at the Gundam on the screen, wearing a nano-bodysuit called the "Mobile Trace System Equipment," and fighting with their fists and feet, and their expressions were somewhat subtle.

Is this still the Gundam we know that shoots at each other with beam rifles?

Especially when the protagonist unleashed his ultimate move, "SHININGFINGER," and crushed the head of Nero Gundam with his bare hands, the person in charge of Bandai's product planning subconsciously adjusted his glasses, as if trying to confirm whether he had seen it wrong.

This is no longer the epic space war they are familiar with, but a super-system combat game with punches landing and blood surging!

The entire conference room fell silent, with only the rousing background music and sound effects from the animation echoing in the air.

Many executives in suits leaned forward instinctively, their eyes glued to the screen, as if their hearts were gripped by an invisible force.

Takuya remained calm and composed, a slight smile playing on his lips.

As expected of Imagawa Yasuhiro, it still has that same flavor.

He was all too aware of the power of this work; it might not be accepted by some veteran Gundam fans, but the new market it opened up would be immeasurable.

The three episodes of the animation flashed by, and the lights in the conference room came back on.

There was a two-second silence in the room, followed by suppressed exclamations and discussions.

"Sri Lanka No. 1!"

"This is amazing! Is this still a Gundam? It's practically a completely new species!"

"Manager Imagawa, well done!"

"That's true romance for men!"

"Clap clap clap!"

Hiroi Shiro was the first to clap, his face beaming with excitement. "Fantastic! Director Imagawa, the pacing and impact of this work will definitely grab the attention of today's young people!"

"Furthermore, while the battle atmosphere is quite intense, it doesn't abandon Gundam's most fundamental tradition—the exploration and reflection on humanity's various evils and the brilliance of humanity. The work doesn't lose its artistic depth."

The planning manager from Bandai nodded in agreement. "The mecha design is very distinctive, and the development of related products can follow immediately. With this level of expressiveness, selling the model shouldn't be a problem."

"However," Hiroi Shiro changed the subject, looking at animation director Imagawa Yasuhiro, and asked the most crucial question, "Director Imagawa,"

With such high production quality, is the budget not an issue?

Imagawa Yasuhiro confidently pushed up his glasses.

"Please rest assured." He turned to Takuya and bowed slightly. "Thanks to the optimization plan proposed by Executive Director Nakayama, we outsourced a large number of non-core production parts to teams in mainland China through an optimized outsourcing chain, and we did meticulous planning for this, resulting in very good cost control."

"Not only is the quality guaranteed, but the budget savings are enough to allow us to achieve results far exceeding expectations in crucial later stages! This lays a solid foundation for our ratings surge."

Upon hearing this, everyone's attention turned to Takuya.

Approval, admiration, and even a hint of unbelievable awe.

What exactly did this young man think of?

Mr. Ito, the president of Sunrise, was filled with emotion, realizing that what was once a helpless move had now become a driving force for the company's upward growth against the odds.

This not only saves money, but also optimizes the entire production process, allowing the creative team to focus more on refining the core content.

"Special Secretary Nakayama has such foresight!"

"It's all thanks to our entire Production Committee." Takuya waved his hand modestly, distributing the credit to everyone present.

After discussing the television station's broadcast schedule with Imagawa Yasuhiro Hiroi Shiro exchanged a few more polite words with Takuya before leaving with his entourage, completely satisfied.

Takuya straightened his suit and was about to get up.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side and gently placed itself on his arm.

Takuya turned around and met Bandai Mitsui Chuta's smiling, yet meaningful face.

"Executive Director Nakayama," Mitsui Chuta's voice was low, his eyes gleaming, "Would you do me the honor of having a casual meal with me?"
