I am the Entertainment Tycoon

Theo's Office, Tokyo Animation Studios, Elffire City..

With the company's reformulation, Theo finally had an office of his own as he was the Department Head of the Creative and Writing Department. And assumed this position because every animation that the studio would produce would come from him. After all, he was the person adapting the creations from his past life.

Consequently, he was the best person to lead the department that had the function of being creative and writing the scripts of the animes.

At the moment, there are around 5 people in the department, an extremely small number when compared with other departments in the studio, but Theo only accepted people who really showed a creative spirit. Plus, he was already prepared to accept new employees into his department in the upcoming job interviews.

Theo and Ryoko had just made themselves comfortable in a couple of couches inside his office before they started to discuss important things.

"How's the negotiations with the Streaming Rights?" Theo asked, "I think the app will be ready to launch next week." nσvel.cøm

Ever since Theo had the idea to launch his own streaming service, he asked Sylph to start working on the app algorithm.

As a supercomputer, she could've finished it in less than a month, but Theo told her to take things slow, and every week he would inspect her work and make some adjustments in the project. That's why she took around 2 and a half months to finish the algorithm.

And in the past few weeks, he dedicated a part of his free time to work on this project. Although it took a long time to finish, Theo was extremely happy with the result that he and Sylph achieved.

For example, during one of his inspections, he discovered that if he wanted to deliver his anime to other countries as soon as possible after it was aired in the Sakura Abode Country, he would have to hire a translation team to produce the subtitles to each country's language.

But that would demand more than 20 specialized teams to translate and create subtitles for more than 20 different languages.

Theo planned to launch his streaming service in around 40 countries at first, and the languages spoken in these places were obviously different from each other.

Theo didn't want to hire so many people for that, so he came up with a plan. He would work with Sylph to create a program to generate the subtitles.

Most people might think that this machine translation would result in awful results, but Sylph was a super-intelligent artificial intelligence, and she could translate the dialogues even better than humans. So, if she reserved a small part of her processing power to work in this translation program, the anime episodes would be perfectly translated into each intended language.

Theo and Sylph spent a lot of time creating this program, and this was why it took so long to finish the streaming service app.

But after a few test runs, Theo was sure that the app was ready to be used by the public.

"Boss, I'm 95% done, there are only a couple of more popular animes that the studios are doing a tough negotiation, but I'm sure I can get the streaming rights by the end of the week." Ryoko replied.

With Theo's investment, in the past 2 months, Ryoko bought hundreds of streaming rights to different animes. The majority of them were old animes, but there were a few dozen that were new and popular as well.

"Great! This means that we are almost ready to launch the app. We just need to adjust the catalog of each country." Theo commented with a happy smile.

With hundreds of animes in the catalog, there were some animes that Ryoko was not able to buy the streaming rights in all 40 intended countries. That was because another company already had exclusive streaming rights for that anime in that country. So, each country would have omissions in the catalog, but nothing too much.

Only the Sakura Abode Country would have the full catalog of animes.

"But, boss, I would advise you to get a team to take care of things for the streaming service before the launch." Ryoko said with a thoughtful expression, "After launching the app in more than 40 countries, the app will have millions of subscribers. And to take care of such a huge clientele, the app will need people working 24/7 to attend to the public."

Theo became thoughtful as he heard that.

He knew that Ryoko was right, he couldn't dump the work from the streaming service to Ryoko as she was already super busy taking care of the animation studio. He did that before by tasking her to buy the streaming rights of the animes. But now that the [SAO] Anime was about to debut and the Kuramaroll was about to be launched, he needed to separate the two companies.

Kuramaroll and Tokyo Studios would be two different companies that had relations.

"You're right." Theo said with a sigh, "I'll talk with Sam to create the company and hire the employees."

'Another company created.' Theo thought.

At first, he didn't want to open an entirely new company for the streaming service, but after working on this project in the last few months, he realized that such a big streaming service needed its own team to take care of it.

"I'm sure everything will be alright, Theo." Ryoko said with a reassuring smile.

"I hope so." Theo shook his head with a smile on his face, "How's the preparations for the Primrose Manga Con?"

"Everything is going well." Ryoko replied, "The marketing department is working really hard to design a great stage. They already rented a big stand area in the manga con."

After Ryoko had her own Marketing Department, she was able to delegate to them lots of things that she had to do before. Plus, with the studio departments' creation, Ryoko finally saw her job getting easier as she would be able to delegate some tasks to specific departments that the studio didn't have before. All in all, Ryoko would have a much better life delegating tasks to these departments from now on.

The work for the Primrose Manga con was an example of this.

Before the creation of the Marketing Department, it would be her job to take care of that. But now she just had to task this job to them, and they would give their all to create the best stand to promote the [SAO] Anime.

After all, the Primrose Manga Con was a popular event that thousands of people visited. Plus, animation studios frequented every year to promote their upcoming animes. The convention would even air on national TV. So, it was a big stage, and Tokyo Studios would promote their upcoming anime there as well.

But what would the public think of this unknown studio?
