Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

Chapter 739 A great team?

The next day, the studio friends continued to clean up the office.

Things Shiyu and Yinglili ordered online came back one after another, and all kinds of express delivery were piled up in a mess.

Kato Yusuke and Yoshida worked hard to arrange all the newly purchased desks and computers.

Women are responsible for setting up the environment, organizing documents, and cleaning.

Except for Mayu Sagara, who was frowning due to the heavy workload, the others were generally quite motivated.

Especially after turning on the air conditioner, the indoor temperature is finally comfortable, which is gratifying.

Everyone worked hard until the afternoon, and finally we were almost done.

Hasumi Kanoko and Mishima Yuba went downstairs to throw away the garbage, and bought a lot of ice cream from the convenience store to reward everyone.

By the way, this building has a special area for throwing away garbage. People can throw away garbage at any time without following the recycling day, which is very convenient.

Of course, the price behind this convenience is that property fees will be higher, which is also the norm in most high-end towers and office buildings.

Hasumi Kanoko found Kato Yusuke who was staying in the office by herself, and mentioned something with a happy face.

"Kato-kun, the headhunting company introduced me to a game development team. They are interested in joining our studio, and the entire team jumped here together!"

Kato Yusuke was stunned: "How many people are there in that team? Is it reliable?"

Seeing Kanoko with a smile in her eyes, Hassan introduced him.

“There are 18 of them in total, covering everything from planning, numerical values, programming, art to operations~!

This team has previously developed a mobile card game called "Wrath of Bahamut". I did some research and found that this game has a pretty good reputation in the market.

Don’t we intend to make mobile games? I think it would be just right if we could poach them. "

Kato Yusuke suddenly understood.

Because he was working on "Fate Grand Order", he also did some research on card games in this world.

When it comes to the game "Wrath of Bahamut", it is a typical Western fantasy-themed work, and it can often be seen on the app store's best-selling game list.

Its oil painting-style art design not only retains the Japanese two-dimensional style, but is also unconventional, and has both gameplay and artistry.

The monster design in the game is also very good, very much like the "Final Fantasy" in his previous life, and is often praised by people.

The SQ company that developed "The Wrath of Bahamut" also has a strong background, and its strength is only slightly inferior to Osaka's Malz... which is the company that produced "Global Chronicles".

In the game industry of this world, SQ Company is considered a giant.

Kato Yusuke was a little hard to understand and asked: "How could such a complete team change jobs collectively? Are they in conflict with their old club?"

"Absolutely." Ren saw Kanoko nodded briskly.

"According to what I learned from the headhunting company, SQ Company doesn't seem to attach much importance to this game, and the treatment given to the development team is not high, which makes them want to change jobs collectively."

Kato Yusuke thought for a while and asked: "Since it is a group, there should be a leader, right?"

"Well~ that person is their chief designer." Kanoko Hasumi said:

"Matsumoto Jun, 35 years old, his family immigrated to the United States in his early years. He once worked at EA Game Company, and later returned to China and joined SQ as a game designer."

Kato Yusuke raised his eyebrows, "Co-author or a rich second generation?"

Hasumi Kanoko rolled her eyes at him: "Be serious, I'm talking about business. There are many companies eyeing this team now. Should we recruit them?"

Kato Yusuke shrugged disapprovingly, took out a coffee-flavored one from the plastic bag on the table, half for himself and Hasumi Kanoko.

Holding it in his mouth, he asked calmly: "Since they plan to change jobs, they should have put forward some conditions, right? Tell me about it."

Hasumi Kanoko took a small bite and said, "Well, their requirement is that the salary will be increased by at least 20% compared to the original amount. The details will need to be further discussed."

Kato Yusuke said oh but said nothing.

Hasumi Kanoko looked at him a little strangely, and found that he didn't seem to be too interested in this matter, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

In her opinion, such a mature team with both development and operation experience can be said to be rare.

If this team can be recruited to the studio collectively, it will definitely bring great value, which is much better than recruiting them one by one and training them laboriously.

"...Kato-kun?" Hasumi Kanoko asked in confusion: "Do you think their requirements have increased?"

"Oh, that's not true." Kato Yusuke shook his head, "The 20% salary increase request is normal and not considered high."

Hasumi Kanoko was a little confused, "Then what's wrong with you...?"

Kato Yusuke pondered for a moment:

"I just feel that a complete team like this already has its own set of rules. It is difficult for outsiders to step in and not say anything, and they may not be able to integrate into us.

If it's a big company, it's okay, they can disperse their members and rearrange them.

But the scale of our studio is so large, and recruiting this kind of team in hastily may cause factional divisions, which is not necessarily a good thing. "

"...Will you?" Seeing Kanozi, Hassan tilted his head in doubt.

"I think Kato-kun, are you thinking too much? Everyone in our studio is very friendly, so the situation you mentioned should not happen.

Besides, wouldn’t it be good to have a little sense of competition?

Don’t you always say that Miss Xiangraku loves fishing? If some very capable new people can come in, maybe she will become diligent due to the crisis? "

Kato Yusuke smiled noncommittally, thinking to himself, could this be the same?

Although Sagara Mayu does like fishing, others always start slacking off after completing the work at hand, and there has never been a situation where work is delayed.

Many times, he was just joking when he said that Sagara Mayu fished. Otherwise, if there was really a problem with the other party's attitude, he would have beaten the disciple long ago.

That's too far.

Back to the topic.

Seeing that Hasumi Kanoko was very optimistic about the team, Kato Yusuke didn't want to be too picky.

No matter how awesome the team is, they are still just part-time workers, and they can't even be said to be ready for him.

As long as his base remains intact and Shiyu and Yinglili don't quit the studio, there will definitely be no problem.

Thinking of this, Kato Yusuke waved his hand and said:

"Okay, since you are so optimistic about that team, Kano-chan, let's talk to them further. As long as the conditions are not too outrageous, you can make the decision yourself."

Seeing Kanoko's high-spirited look, Hassan couldn't help but feel funny and said:

"Okay, I'll contact the Matsumoto designer right away. I'll let you know as soon as there is any progress."

"Okay." Kato Yusuke responded in a pretentious manner, throwing the finished food into the trash can and letting Hasumi Kanoko go to work.

In fact, Kato Yusuke himself is not a stingy person.

If you can really recruit reliable talents to the studio, what does it mean to pay more?

Of course, if someone wants to cheat his salary by relying on his professional qualifications, it is impossible to hide it from him.

After all, Kato Yusuke himself is good at design and art. Whether the person coming for the interview has real talent or knowledge can be roughly understood in two or three sentences.

And with Yoshida checking the procedures, there won't be any big problems.

Next, he just needs to wait for someone to come for the interview.

Finish this matter.

Kato Yusuke was planning to continue working on the projects of "Fate/Stay Night" and "Fate/Zero" when the door to his office was suddenly pushed open.

"Yu-chan."

"Yusuke."

Shiyu and Yinglili stepped in with vigorous steps, stood on the left and right in front of his desk, and asked seriously.

Shiyu: "Are you done now? It should be our turn next, right?"

Eiri: "What on earth did you say about Nakano-senpai on LINE last night? Hurry up and confess!"

"Sawamura, don't yell so much. Although this man is very disdainful, he probably doesn't have the courage to take action against that senior, unless he doesn't want to live anymore."

"Of course I understand that kind of thing. After all, the other party is the senior sister... But I still worry about it! Can you accept Yusuke taking that senior sister home in private?"

"Hey, didn't I tell you to calm down a little bit?" Shiyu sighed helplessly, slowly walked to Kato Yusuke who wanted to explain, and then stretched out his hands gently -

"How could I possibly accept ahhhhhhhh-?"

"Ugh! Xiaoshi, please don't pinch my neck so hard. I'm going to be out of breath."

Kato Yusuke begged for mercy with a "painful" look on his face, but Shiyu was completely unmoved.

She held his throat tightly, her eyes widened like a female ghost seeking her life, and her hands shook back and forth desperately.

"Obviously we just separated for a few hours last night, Yu-chan, you actually brought a beautiful senior sister home. A sister-control + scumbag like you should go to hell, hehehehe..."

"Xiao, Xiao, Xiao Shi, this, this is so painful! Listen to me... explain."

Eiriri looked at Kato Yusuke, who was turning blue, and couldn't help but feel at a loss.

"Ah, ah, ah, um... Kasumigaoka Shiu, don't do this! No, uh~ Yusuke... I said you are just..."

She was like an ant on a hot pot, spinning around Kato Yusuke and Shiyu meaninglessly, hesitating whether to stop the rampaging Shiyu or whether to unite the front to attack someone.

Kato Yusuke: "Eiriri, you...I..."

"Yu-chan, do you like senior-type girls? I just let go of you and that vixen a few days ago... and you immediately brought a more troublesome woman home. Are you going to piss me off to death? "Shiyu's eyes were destructive.

"That, that, Xiaoshi, you misunderstood..."

Kato Yusuke jumped out word by word, looking as if he was about to fall into coma in the next second.

Seeing this, Yinglili finally couldn't sit still anymore and rushed forward eagerly to grab Shiyu's hand.

"Enough, that's enough! Kasumigaoka Shiu! Let go of Yusuke quickly, don't you see that he's about to suffocate? Stupid, stupid, stupid!"

Thanks to this, someone was finally saved.

"Cough cough, cough cough... cough cough cough... I'm alive..." Kato Yusuke coughed hard and didn't recover for a long time.

"Yusuke! How are you?? Don't scare me...!" Yingli said with a frightened face, her soft little hands touched his back, trying to help him calm down.

Kato Yusuke waved his hand and cursed crazily in his heart, secretly thinking that you are finally here. If you don't come, I won't be able to continue acting.

Then he took a few deep breaths, looked at Shiyu on the other side, smiled bitterly and sighed.

"...Xiao Shi, can we discuss it? Can you listen to my explanation next time before taking action?"

Shiyu rolled her eyes at him and turned her face away from him.

Kato Yusuke tapped his temple, glanced at the girls on the left and right, and finally let out a long sigh of helplessness.

"...In short, compared to my one-sided words, I think you may be more willing to believe Nakano-senpai's words. How about the three of us go to meet Nakano-senpai together later?"

Shiyu: "The three of us..."

Eiriri: "Let's go meet Nakano-senpai together...?"

Shiyu and Yinglili looked at each other in surprise for two seconds, then nodded heavily.

Kato Yusuke did not hesitate and directly called Nakano Ryoko and asked if it was convenient...

…

that's all.

The three of them got into a taxi together and headed to the original studio.

While in the car, Yusuke Kato gave a complete explanation of how he got in touch with Ryoko Nakano.

From when he first heard the news from Yamaguchi, to when Ryoko Nakano took the initiative to ask him for help, to when he settled the other party, he didn't hide anything.

In fact, he actually told everyone about this as early as last night, but unfortunately Hui didn't respond, and Shiyu and Yinglili didn't believe him.

Kato Yusuke had no choice but to ask Nakano Ryoko, who had more weight to speak, to help prove his innocence.

However, he had actually planned to wait until after get off work to see how Nakano Ryoko was doing, and he was also planning to ask Shiyu and Eiri to go with him.

The three of them are all juniors of Ryoko Nakano, so it is natural for them to come and say hello.

Soon, the old studio arrived.

When things came to a close, Shiyu and Yinglili became a little hesitant, feeling that their decision to rush to the door was too hasty.

Kato Yusuke didn't think too much, so he held one hand by the other and walked up.

After pressing the doorbell and waiting for a while, the person inside came and opened the door.

"Welcome, Yu-kun." Ryoko Nakano smiled appropriately, and the sound she played was like the spring breeze blowing in front of you.

"The same goes for Kasumigaoka-san and Sawamura-san. Long time no see. Welcome."

Shiyu and Eiri nodded slightly cautiously and called Nakano-senpai, completely losing the momentum of their previous doubles match.

Kato Yusuke was both funny and helpless, and he didn't know how they could become so honest.

He couldn't help but shake his head and said naturally: "Sorry, Senior Nakano, we are here to disturb you."

Nakano Ryoko smiled even sweeter, "Well~ I've been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in, I've made tea."
