Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

I never expected that coming into this world would mean I wouldn't be able to avoid being pressured to get married and have children. Of course, this is understandable, and it's reasonable for Takeyu Masako to make such demands. However, Takeyu Hoshi herself doesn't really have much of an opinion on it.

Tsukino Aya feels the same way; she also thinks it's not a good time right now. However, if Takeyu really has this idea, she certainly won't refuse.

However, upon hearing her mother-in-law, Takeyu Masako's, urging her to have a baby, she couldn't help but blush.

In terms of age, both of them are already quite old, and it seems they really should consider this now.

Hearing that Takeyuki was about to hang up, Takeyuki Masako quickly said, "Hey, hey, Takeyuki, don't hang up! Don't you still have a need?"

"As long as you don't rush me about this, everything will be fine."

Masako Takeyu could only sigh inwardly and then said, "Alright, I won't force you. You can decide for yourselves. As for finding an artist to help with the character designs, I don't think I can do it. I certainly don't understand the new technologies of you young people. If you want to create some character designs, you must need a lot of technology from your game industry, right?"

Zhu Youxing nodded and said, "That's right, it is indeed necessary. However, if the designer is not good at this, I have someone who can help with the character modeling. But it would be best if someone is good at this."

Just like the music in video games back in the day.

Only when musicians themselves know how to write the music code they want in video games can they best match the characteristics of the game itself.

However, there are some differences between art and music.

In the earlier Final Fantasy games, the art design didn't require any character modeling or anything like that; he only needed to draw the character designs given by Takeyusei.

Originally, the female characters from Bayonetta and NieR: Automata could have been drawn by their own team.

But Zhu Youxing always felt something was missing; the character lacked tension and charm.

At this moment, Zhu Youxing remembered that in the original world, when Bayonetta was first designed, a female artist was specifically chosen. The comment at the time was that only women truly understand women and know how to best express their alluring side.

As for men, it's mostly just superficial.

Takeyu Masako said, "Then I probably won't be able to meet your requirements 100%, but if you have any needs for art cover design, I can take care of it for you directly. As for character design, I'll recommend someone else to you."

"That's fine, as long as the requirements are met. I believe only women can fully express the charm of women and know how to do it better than what is currently being depicted in paintings. We need people like that now."

Takeyu Masako nodded and said, "I understand. Give me two days, and I'll find someone who meets your requirements, then have her contact you herself, okay?"

"of course can!"

Zhu Youxing thought to herself, "As expected of my mother, she can find someone who meets my requirements in just two days."

When I first needed an artist, my mom strongly recommended Sansuke Tsuchiya.

Later, Tsuchiya Sansuke became the lifelong illustrator for Dragon Quest.

He didn't have the talent and good luck of Akira Toriyama to create a masterpiece in the anime industry like Dragon Ball, but being the chief designer of Dragon Quest himself also brought him a lot of fame.

Zhu Youxing felt much more at ease after receiving the assurance. Now that they had a qualified art and character designer, the game's development could finally get on track.

"It sounds like Mom agreed to your request?"

After hanging up the phone, Aya Tsukino asked from the side.

Zhu Youxing replied in a good mood, "That's right, Mom is as awesome as ever."

Aya Tsukino nodded in agreement, indicating that the matter could be considered settled.

"Oh, right, about something else Mom mentioned..."

"Another thing? What is it... Oh~"

Aya Tsukino's gaze drifted elsewhere, as if she hadn't asked the question herself.

"It seems... that's something I should really consider."

it is more than words……

……

Two days later, not long after Zhu Youxing arrived at the company headquarters, his assistant found him.

"President, there's someone outside looking for you. They said they were recommended by Ms. Takeyu Masako."

Zhu Youxing had originally planned to slack off by playing games in the office before starting work, but upon hearing his assistant's words, he immediately perked up and exclaimed, "Great! Let her come in right away! I didn't expect that she would actually arrive in just two days!"

"Ok."

The assistant left the office, and about ten minutes later, a girl who looked to be in her early twenties cautiously walked into Zhu Youxing's office.

Chapter 723 Yoshida Mika

723

Mika Yoshida is a student at Tokyo University of the Arts.

Given the size of Yusei Electronics Entertainment, there are many graduates from Tokyo University of the Arts.

However, not everyone is very talented.

They mostly just barely meet the needs of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Later, Zhu Youxing realized that true artists are ultimately few and far between, and most will likely just fade into obscurity.

Therefore, when he wanted to find a character designer, he didn't immediately think of students from Tokyo University of the Arts or other well-known art and design schools.

However, this is also because Zhu Youxing is not very good at art and design.

His paintings are as bad as ever.

This is something that time travelers cannot bring with them.

He wasn't good at drawing in his original world, so it's impossible for him to suddenly acquire a talent and become exceptionally good at drawing after coming to this world.

Therefore, he doesn't know much about art and can only be considered a dabbler.

But nowadays, video games still rely heavily on excellent designers.

If it weren't for having an artist mother, I probably wouldn't have had an easy time finding some outstanding artists.

Mika Yoshida is a very special student at Tokyo University of the Arts.

Her major was animation in the newly established Department of Visual Arts.

This major was previously geared towards the film and animation industry.

In the past two years, the strong rise of video games has attracted the attention of many universities to this new field, so many universities have begun to study and explore in this direction.

Previously, Yuxing Electronics Entertainment had collaborated with renowned universities such as the University of Tokyo and Stanford University. Yuxing Electronics Entertainment provided some learning models for game development, and these prestigious universities would regularly recommend outstanding students to them.

Mika Yoshida herself also enjoys playing games, and given her excellent artistic talent, she resolutely chose the Department of Film and Television Studies, which seemed to be several levels lower than her potential to become a great artist.

No matter what industry you're in, you can't avoid the so-called hierarchy of contempt. In the field of fine arts, the hierarchy of contempt is that professional fields such as Japanese painting, oil painting, and mural painting look down on film and animation art design.

And now, there seems to be a trend in film, animation, and art design that looks down on video games.

But none of this affected Yoshida Mika's choice.

Masako Takeyu was able to find Mika Yoshida because she had several friends at Tokyo University of the Arts.

They almost unanimously and strongly recommended Mika Yoshida.

They all thought Yoshida Mika's choice was regrettable, but if there were an opportunity for her to make a name for herself, they would definitely support her.

Perhaps this is also a teacher's instinct, subconsciously hoping that their students can become the center of attention.

Yoshida Mika looked gentle and mild-mannered. After entering Takeyusei's office, she remained rather reserved in her seat, but she did not forget to hand her resume to Takeyusei.

"Yoshida Mika...madam, is that right?"

Takeyusei closed Yoshida Mika's resume and looked at Yoshida Mika with a smile.

"Yes, Senior Takeyu... oh no, President Takeyu!"

"You can call me senior or just my name. You don't need to be so formal. My mother recommended you, so I'll definitely take extra care of you."

"Yes, Senior Zhuyou, I am very happy to have the opportunity to join Youxing Electronic Entertainment. Youxing Electronic Entertainment has always been my dream company, and I have always hoped to join this company!"

Mika Yoshida said with a slight excitement.

As a video game enthusiast, she naturally regards Yuxing Electronic Entertainment as her sacred place.

Actually, she had been to the gate of Youxing Electronic Entertainment Company a long time ago.

However, at that time she was not allowed to enter the company. She could only make a pilgrimage at the entrance, take some photos, and leave satisfied.

Now that she has joined this company, and was even specially recommended by someone, this is truly the most surprising thing for her.

When she learned that she had been recommended to this company, Yoshida Mika was so happy that she couldn't sleep all night. Fortunately, she was young and full of energy, and even though she didn't sleep well, she was still very energetic for the interview the next day.

Takeyusei had already read through Yoshida Mika's resume and had a general understanding of her basic situation.

Her previous works perfectly matched her requirements for modern game concept art and CG painting.

Furthermore, she is very bold in her painting, often using exceptionally vibrant colors to create a stronger sense of tension in her artwork.

Even for a layman like Zhu Youxing, it was a feast for the eyes.

No wonder my mom recommended her; she's definitely a very suitable person.

Zhu Youxing has always been very enthusiastic when it comes to talented people.

Zhu Youxing smiled and said, "I'm glad you like our company. I've also looked at most of your work. Now, I have some character drawing needs, and I need you to give a rough demonstration on the spot. Do you think you can handle it?"

Upon hearing Takeyusei's request, Yoshida Mika nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, please tell me your request, Takeyusei-senpai, and I will do my best to fulfill it."

"I wanted to design two women. One of them was calm and collected, a machine with almost no emotions, but I also wanted her to have some human qualities. The other woman was tall and charming. I asked her to amplify the character's characteristics as much as possible, while still wielding weapons with elegance."

Zhu Youxing felt that he was now the kind of unscrupulous client who demanded that the designer draw a colorful black.

Torture the designer in whatever way you can.

However, these are indeed the characteristics of these two characters.

Of course, the description of Takeyusei itself may have some flaws, which requires Yoshida Mika's own comprehension and understanding to come into play.

When Yoshida Mika heard Takeyusei's request, she was taken aback for a moment, and then she really started to think about it seriously in her seat.

During the thought process, Mika Yoshida lost her previous restraint and became very focused.

This is really great. If a designer like this is in charge of the character designs for Bayonetta and 2B, I think I can finally relax.

"Senior Zhuyou, do you have paper and pen now? I think I've thought of something."

So fast?

Takeyusei looked at Yoshida Mika with some surprise. Had the request he made been conceived so quickly?
