I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

Genkawa Yu was slightly taken aback, and turned his questioning gaze to Nakahara Kazuya.

Kazuya Nakahara quickly stepped forward, rubbing his hands together to explain, "Ahaha, Genkawa, it's like this, look at your popularity now, your workload is increasing exponentially, even if I had three heads and six arms, I couldn't handle it all."

"Moreover, there are many work details, such as accurate scheduling, sorting out clothing brands, and those fragmented communications, which really require a more meticulous and focused person to be in charge."

"Kato-san was personally recommended by the president. She is very capable and has been involved in this field for a long time."

He gave a thumbs up.

"Moreover, girls are generally more meticulous and can take better care of you. With her helping you with some trivial tasks, you can definitely have less to worry about in the future and focus more on creation and performance itself!"

Genkawa Yu's gaze fell back on Kato Megumi.

"Hello, Kato-san."

Genkawa Yu thought for a moment. The other party and the president, Kato Arashi, shared the same surname, and some guesses formed almost immediately.

However, he chose to suppress his doubts for now and said gently, "I'll have to trouble you from now on."

“Teacher Yuanchuan, this is my duty.”

Kato Megumi bowed slightly again, her attitude polite.

"Also, just a reminder, I already arranged some things yesterday based on your next steps."

"This is some information about the production team of 'Alice in the Land of the Dying'."

Yuan Chuanyu took the documents handed to him by the girl with some surprise. Although he was already chosen as the male lead, he still had to go through the audition process and attend the crew meeting after the audition.

"The audition for 'Alice in the Land of the Dying' will be held next Tuesday at the TBS headquarters in Roppongi."

"This is the list of audition team members and a brief introduction to the project background. Please take a look."

As she spoke, she picked up a slim tablet from the desk beside her, skillfully pulled up a concise and well-organized electronic document, and handed it to Genkawa Yu with both hands.

The entire movement was fluid and efficient, with an astonishing level of skill.

Genkawa Yu paused for a few seconds, then took the tablet and quickly started browsing.

The document is extremely concise, yet it covers all the key information, and even includes a summary of director Akihiro Aoyama's recent interview and some background research on the production team of "Alice in the Land of Dying".

These things cannot be prepared by cramming at the last minute.

He raised an eyebrow at Kato Megumi with some surprise; this new assistant seemed to be much more capable than he had imagined.

"Yes, the content is very detailed, thank you Kato-san."

Kazuya Nakahara watched the two work together efficiently, with hardly a single wasted word, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

A while later, while Kato Megumi went out to get coffee, he couldn't help but lean closer to Genkawa Yu and whispered, "Genkawa, Ms. Kato is the president's niece, but her business skills are absolutely top-notch. The president specifically instructed that you don't need to worry about this relationship and just treat her as your client."

"Party B?"

Genkawa Yu glanced at Nakahara Kazuya, and his understanding deepened.

The actions just now have already proven that Kato Megumi is not someone who relies on connections. Since her abilities are quite good, she is qualified to work as an artist's assistant.

but

The young man scratched his head. Although he was currently very popular and well-known, and had more than a million followers on Twitter, he didn't really feel like it was real.

So, will I finally have my own artist assistant?

After a while, Kato Megumi handed a cup of freshly brewed coffee to Genkawa Yumen.

"Mr. Genkawa, here's your coffee."

"Thank you, Kato-san. You don't need to call me that anymore; just call me by my name."

Since it was Yuu Genkawa's first time being the client, he decided to be friendly from the start.

“Then I…” Kato Megumi lowered her head and thought for a moment, her voice still gentle, “I’ll call you Genkawa-san.”

"Honorific language..."

"Using polite language is a must, after all, you are the artist and I am the assistant."

"..."

"OK then."

Genkawa Yu rubbed his temples. He didn't really understand the relationship between an artist's assistant and the artist, but since the agency had already arranged it for him, he would just have to get along with it.

Just then, the young man had a sudden thought, and the system screen in front of him began to flicker violently.

"Could it be..."

Production Sequence 1: The Masses

Experience points: 98/100

Experience points: 99/100

Experience points: 100/100

Production complete!

[Obtained the entry for "All Living Beings (White)".]

[Congratulations, host, you have produced a total of 5 entries.]

[Entry Production Platform Lv1→Lv2!]

Production of green entries is now open!

[Second production sequence unlocked!]

"Good guy!"

Genkawa Yu was suddenly startled.

He originally thought that after he completed the advancement of the [Affix Production Platform], he could produce green affixes to gain more powerful abilities, but he did not expect that the advancement of the [Affix Production Platform] would actually open up a second production sequence.

Wouldn't that allow us to produce two advanced terms simultaneously?

Just do it!

Yuan Chuanyu immediately began searching for the required keywords according to his previous plan. After the synthesis of [All Living Beings] was completed, [Protagonist-Level Acting (Purple)] was only missing one keyword. In other words, the second production sequence could still produce other keywords.

"We need to optimize the script anyway, so I'll choose you first!"

[Never Stop Writing (Green)]

[Available for production]

[Production Requirements: Gain 100 Advanced Creation Experience Points.]

Next, Genkawa Yu selected a required entry from the synthesis path for 【Protagonist-level Long-lasting? Cage Six Sizzling? Chess Eight? εr? ~ Eight Acting Skills (Purple)】.

[Newcomer Actor (Green)] + [The Masses (White)] + [Skilled Voice, Stage Presence, and Acting (Green)] = [Leader-Level Acting (Purple)]

[Junior Novelist (Green)] + [Continuous Writing (Green)] + [Advanced Research (Green)] = [Bestselling Author (Purple)]

[Proficient Level Voice Form Chart (Green)]

[Available for production]

[Production conditions: Obtain 100 experience points in the sound stage shape table.]

"Start producing two entries at once, and insert them!"

[Production Sequence 1: Skilled Level Voice Actor Shape Chart]

Experience points: 0/100

[Production Sequence Two: Unceasing Writing]

Experience points: 0/100

Genkawa Yu stroked his chin, quite satisfied.

Now, the era of our brothers is truly here!

Volume 1 The Shining Morning Star: Chapter 81 Mai Sakurajima and Megumi Kato's First Meeting (Two Volumes Combined, 6k+ words)

The morning light shone through the thin curtains onto Yuan Chuan You's bed, waking him from his sleep.

He had just sat up and rubbed his slightly messy hair when his personal cell phone on the bedside table started vibrating almost at the last second.

The screen displayed an unfamiliar number, but the note was clear—[Kato Megumi].

I glanced at the time; it was only seven o'clock. The call came very early.

Genkawa Yu swiped to answer the call and held the phone to his ear.

"Hey."

Good morning, Genkawa-san.

Kato Megumi's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I hope I haven't disturbed your rest. You need to go to the TBS headquarters building at 10:00 AM today for the audition for 'Alice in the Land of the Dying.' Your van will be waiting downstairs at your apartment building at 9:00 AM sharp."

"Is this time slot convenient for you?"

Hearing these words, Yuu Minakawa could even imagine her holding a tablet or planner, meticulously checking the entries.

"No problem, I'm already up."

He replied.

"Okay, because this audition is a very important project. Although you have already been chosen as the male lead, you still need to perform well at the audition so that you can better integrate into the crew."

"I suggest that Genkawa-san put some effort into his clothing choices, such as wearing casual clothes or a high-quality hoodie with trousers. The style should balance comfort and formality to meet the audition requirements for the role of [Arisu Ryohei]."

"By the way, have you eaten yet? Would you like me to prepare breakfast or coffee for you in advance?"

"No need, thank you, I'll handle it myself."

Genkawa Yu was somewhat surprised that she had even considered clothing suggestions and dining arrangements.

"I understand. See you downstairs at nine o'clock sharp. Please feel free to contact me if you have any urgent needs, Mr. Genkawa."

After Kato Megumi finished speaking, she promptly ended the call without any hesitation.
