Outrageous!

 He stared thoughtfully at the screen and began typing.

 "I demand that the entire animation be of the standard of a top-tier game's opening CG. Whether it's rendering or basic structure, everything must be meticulous, and I will pay for it."

 The other party responded quickly.

 “Mr. Aoyama, your requirements are very demanding, and the wages are very tempting, but this is simply too demanding. It is impossible for us to make such a thing within a few months. It is simply unrealistic. No matter how much money you have, it will be meaningless.”

 Is Sanzenin Arashi frowning? He wants to settle down.

 I want to get married.

 He used to turn all the cute girls around him into his wives, his exclusive women. Now, contrary to his usual behavior, he's using money to buy them, wanting to do something meaningful to prove himself.

 "These negotiations are such a hassle," he sighed, continuing to type on the keyboard, "State your demands."

 "I've earned tens of billions of yen by now, and I've poured it all into making animation. If all else fails, I'll just transfer funds from my own company," Sanzenin Arashi thought, rubbing his chin. "A Certain Magical Index won't cost that much; five billion yen should be enough."

 “Hey, Mr. Aoyama, are you looking at this? We can take on this Gensokyo project, but this project will take a lot of time. According to your requirements, we need to invest at least twenty working groups and two years to produce it, otherwise it’s impossible. Do you know what that means?”

 The person in charge at Ubisoft sent the message in a rather annoyed tone.

 Sanzenin Arashi frowned.

 At this point, the other party continued to send messages:

 "Let me explain to you, dear Mr. Aoyama, that achieving high quality in CG production has very, very little to do with production technology!"

 "We achieved this standard through manual rendering. In other words, the best CG must have corresponding real-world scenery. If not, we can only keep rendering or building scenes to achieve a higher level of realism. Do you understand?"

 This guy can speak Japanese, but his way of thinking is different from that of Japanese people. He doesn't use Japanese very well, and he seems a bit strange.

 "Hey sir, please speak. Our cooperation is built on mutual trust, and I can even take you on a tour of our production process. There's absolutely nothing fake about it. Trust our quality, Ubisoft!!"

 "Hehe." Sanzenin Arashi couldn't help but chuckle.

 This old fox is playing the game of tai chi.

 ……

 In the Hawaiian morning, the sea breeze was blowing but not cold. This warm feeling made Yukino Yukino squint her eyes as she was quickly pushed back into the house in her wheelchair by the middle-aged woman.

 In her arms.

 A tiny little one stared at the food in front of him with his bright blue eyes.

 Everything was new and unfamiliar to them, and their eyes darted around as if they wanted to speak, but they only managed to utter a series of incoherent sounds.

 “Miss Yukinoshita, your daughter is talking to you,” the middle-aged woman said with a smile. “Don’t touch her head, she’s very fragile at that age.”

 Yukinoshita chuckled softly, nodded slightly, and lay listlessly on the chair, wanting to speak but unsure what to say. Should she ponder? Hmm… hmm… what should I call her?

 Should we give the boss a call?

 Yukino looked at the little one in front of her. This kid was just looking around, but in the blink of an eye, he'd gone to sleep...

 "Both my boss and I are very smart, so the child won't be stupid either," Yukino Yukino said, squinting her eyes. "Mommy won't change your diaper, you know."

 Hmm... Hmm... I don't know how to breastfeed either.

 Thinking this happily, Yukinoshita patted the little one on the shoulder.

 "Wow……"

 "Please do not abuse children, Ms. Yukinoshita."

 Yukinoshita Harano:…………

 ……

 “We can only talk in person. I’m also very curious about the CG production process you mentioned.” Sanzenin Arashi typed, a mischievous smile on her face. “Let’s schedule a time.”

 "Oh, of course. May I ask where Mr. Aoyama prefers to relax? We can certainly prepare the appropriate spot."

 "whatever."

 "Then we'll arrange the place."

 Sanzenin Arashi looked at this sentence and gave the middle finger to the screen.

 As for things that can be solved with money right now, Sanzenin Arashi smiled. He was too lazy to go to great lengths. However, Gensokyo was a place that required meticulous crafting and was very particular about its setting, so he was too lazy to complain about Ubisoft.

 Phew... The problem now is that I don't have a CG production team that can handle the overall project. Even if I outsource, I don't have enough strong people to oversee it. What if I get ripped off?

 Sanzenin Arashi had a backup plan, which she originally didn't want to use, but now she has no choice.

 He took out his phone and made a call to someone he hadn't originally planned to contact.

 "Hello, this is the deep-sea base transfer station. Who are you looking for?" came the voice of the transfer operator on the phone.

 "Connect me to Ryunosuke Akasaka," said Arashi Sanzenin.

 "Hold on."

 The transfer station didn't keep the young master waiting long; the call was connected in just a few minutes.

 "I never expected that you would contact me first..." Ryunosuke Akasaka said with some emotion.

 He messed up the plan once and is now a little embarrassed.

 Sanzenin Arashi cut to the chase without beating around the bush: "Do you have anyone who knows how to do CG production?"

 "CG?" Ryunosuke Akasaka seemed to be momentarily stunned.

 “Yes, game CG,” Sanzenin Arashi said. “Have you ever played a PlayStation game console? It’s the opening CG of those games.”

 “…Uh.” Ryunosuke Akasaka made an awkward sound.

 "Hmm? You don't know how to do it?" Sanzenin Arashi frowned.

 "You want me to make game CG?" Ryunosuke Akasaka said angrily. "Are you insulting my intelligence?"

 You're asking a university PhD to do elementary school homework?

 "Uh……"

 ..

469. What's a good name for my daughter?

 Researchers are often proud and arrogant, and naturally have a big temper. What they hate most is being looked down upon. They need as much face as they produce.

 Therefore, Sanzenin Arashi did not pay attention to his previous impatient words.

 "Excuse me..." Akasaka Ryunosuke suddenly realized...

 He noticed who he was talking to and his tone softened: "Game CG, right... I'll have ten AI models make that for you. Hmm... we don't have any entertainment talent here, but it's simple."

 "Oh?" Sanzenin Arashi immediately became interested. Although AI models have high uncertainty, it doesn't matter if they don't have emotions inputted into them. Just give them mechanical, standardized emotions and let them do CG.

 You can have this!

 "Um..." Ryunosuke Akasaka suddenly said, "Can I confirm? What style of CG do you want?"

 "Huh?" Sanzenin Arashi paused for a moment: "Style? Why are you asking that? I only want high-quality ones."

 "..."

 Ryunosuke Akasaka was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I'm sorry... I've never played games before..."

 “Uh…” Sanzenin Arashi took a breath, “Then go play.”

 "This one……"

 "how?"

 "I'm busy..."

 "You're working."

 “Okay…” came a sound from the other end of the phone. About two minutes later, Ryunosuke Akasaka said confidently, “Even if I’m going to do it, I need to establish a style first!”

 "Isn't the animation style acceptable?" Sanzenin Arashi asked.

 Why not just follow the character design? He felt a strange sensation in his heart. With AI production, which is so efficient, what's wrong with that?

 "That's why talking to laypeople is so tiring!"

 "Go ahead and say it," Sanzenin Arashi shrugged. "I won't interrupt."

 “Well, I’ll just say it this way.” Ryunosuke Akasaka began to read in a monotone tone, “CG production needs to grasp the core, especially the environment.”

 War-themed CG needs to create strong visual effects on metallic objects, highlighting sharp angles and conveying a brutal, warlike atmosphere.

 For romance-themed game CGs, we need to focus on a few key body parts of the girl, such as... stockinged thighs and breasts.

 "Now I'm going to get to the important part." Akasaka Ryunosuke paused. "Hearing this, you might think, 'We just need to make all the tools, right?'"

 “That’s exactly what I think,” said Sanzenin Arashi. “Strive for perfection and do everything to the best of your ability.”

 Ryunosuke Akasaka sighed. "Then let me ask you, in a middle school class, if everyone gets a perfect score on the final exam, can you tell who is the best student?"

 Sanzenin Arashi paused for a moment, just about to refute with the statement, "Then our overall cohesion is very strong."

 But he thought about it.

 It seems that he's the only one who wants to make 3D animated films—L2D feature films.

 That would mean all students in the world got a perfect score...

 Arashi Sanzenin felt it necessary to communicate with Ryunosuke Akasaka to avoid disagreements in the technical field that could ultimately lead to tragedy.

 He said slowly, "What you said makes a lot of sense, go on."

 As expected, Ryunosuke Akasaka was very happy.

 "Well... in the end, all I have to say is this: bring me the template. It's like how there are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's eyes. Bring me your Hamlet; I need a prototype to refer to."

 Sanzenin Arashi frowned, sensing that Akasaka Ryunosuke hadn't finished speaking. "What else do you need?"

 "We also need a CG production expert, and I will replicate his writing style for AI settings."

 Ryunosuke Akasaka took a breath: "Give me an Einstein, and I can get countless Einsteins to work together!"

 This is the power of AI!

 "How many of these AIs can you make?" Sanzenin Arashi asked, getting to the heart of the matter.

 Ryunosuke Akasaka thought for a moment, "About fifty. AI work requires high-end and powerful equipment for support."

 They are completely different from humans; in fact, they are the complete opposite.

 To put it simply, the total workload of AI depends on the availability of equipment, not on the quantity of equipment.

 "The maximum number simply means that ten AIs can do ten things simultaneously."

 Sanzenin Arashi asked, "Is it the same if one computer supports three AIs, or if one computer supports one AI?"

 “That’s right.” Ryunosuke Akasaka was quite certain.

 After hanging up the phone, Sanzenin Arashi already had an idea.

 A Certain Magical Index can be outsourced to Ubisoft, Gensokyo... we can do it ourselves!

 Arashi Sanzenin never imagined that AI could make hundreds of Einsteins work at the same time... That's a bit too incredible, isn't it?

 Nobody thinks they have too much money!

 When playing games, no one cares how many powerful items they have in their inventory.

 Now we're going to create... a basic design concept style for Gensokyo!

 Then you'll also need a master CG artist.

 Arashi Sanzenin immediately grasped the concept. He stood up, intending to contact the person in charge at Ubisoft, but just then, a ringtone suddenly sounded.

 Sanzenin Arashi took out her phone, glanced at it, and her heart skipped a beat.

 Earlier that morning, around 11 a.m., I called Yukinoshita Haruno's phone number, but was rejected.

 It was already evening when the call came in.

 After answering, a familiar voice came from the other end.

 "Boss, there's something I want to tell you."
