I am the Entertainment Tycoon

Chapter 553  Restaurant New Year Opening

Sound Studio Conference Room, Tokyo Animation Studios, Elffire City.

Theo observed the table reading with a focused mind. He had watched the [SAO] Anime in his past life, so he knew the final direction of the anime. But that didn't mean that Theo planned to produce an exact of the [SAO] Anime from his past life. Theo planned to implement his own vision in this anime, he didn't care if the voices weren't the same as the other version. The only thing that mattered to him was if the voices that the voice actors chose were appropriate to each character.

This was the first time that Theo would be directing a production, so everything was new for him as well. But with the knowledge that he managed to amass in the past months, he was more than qualified to direct an anime production.

That's why his enhanced mind didn't find it difficult to note down each mistake that the voice actors made.

He didn't interrupt their act at all and only calmly observed how everything went down.

It was only when Rio announced the end of the script that Theo moved.

At that moment, all the voice actors got out of character and looked at Theo nervously. They did everything they could, all they could do was wait to know what their director thought of their acting.

"First of all, I can see each one of you worked really hard this past week. During the act, I was able to see that each of you was somewhat connected with your own characters. Great work, guys." Theo complimented with a smile.

The voice actors nodded happily when they heard that. For the past week, they had been researching their characters in depth, so they felt happy to have their effort recognized.

"But I have a few notes to say to each one of you." Theo continued calmly.

'Here it comes.' They all thought when they heard that.

It was common sense that directors could find errors in the most small things. The most experienced voice actors knew that directors could be really harsh on their critics.

"I'll point out some things about each one of your performances." Theo said calmly.

"Let's start with the main actors, shall we?" Theo said as he looked at Laura, "Laura, I noticed that you chose an appropriate voice for Asuna, but I think you should adjust the pitch..." Theo started explaining his view and what Laura should adjust to her performance.

Laura listened to everything he said with rapt attention, sometimes she asked him questions about what she didn't understand. The two of them continued their conversation for around 10 minutes until Theo finished explaining everything he wanted.

Laura had a thoughtful expression as she ruminated on Theo's instructions and suggestions.

Theo soon started talking with the other actors, and every actor that Theo talked, the more impressed everyone got with him.

They couldn't believe that Theo was able to remember so many details in such a short time.

He was able to remember even the small details of everyone's performance.

Each actor that had their talk with Theo assumed a thoughtful expression after Theo finished his explanations and suggestions.

Some of them even started noting down some key points of Theo's explanation so they wouldn't be able to forget later.

Even the other employees were able to understand some key points of Theo's explanation as he talked with each voice actor.

Long story short, after Theo talked with every voice actor, everyone was able to see how skillful their director was. And they were relieved that he was so skillful.

Theo left the voice actors to ruminate on his explanations as he started talking with the sound engineers. He wanted to know where they were at on the production.

In total, the meeting lasted for almost 3 hours. Theo had too many things to say, so he wasn't able to shorten the meeting time.

But everyone didn't even feel the time passing as they felt happy to be in a meeting with him as they were able to learn all kinds of new things.

They even wanted to continue the meeting for longer, but after Theo delegated and instructed their next course of action they could only obey his orders.

Each one of them knew what to do next, so as soon as the meeting ended they all headed to do what Theo instructed them to do.

They wanted to put into practice Theo's suggestions!

Theo didn't stop to rest after the end of the meeting, he immediately headed to the editing department.

But he went alone as Ryoko had other things to work with and Aurora found it more interesting the work done in the Sound Studio.

After Theo instructed the sound engineers to take care of her, he immediately headed to his next appointment.

Just like that, Theo spent the rest of the day extremely busy as he caught on with the production development.

It was only around 3:30 pm that he went to the Sound Studio to pick up Aurora.

He had to be at the restaurant at 4 pm, so he had to leave soon.

Although he would focus on the anime production, on the days he worked at the restaurant he would still leave early.

Theo found Aurora helping the sound engineers with their work, she seemed to be having fun. But when he said that he was leaving for the restaurant, she didn't hesitate to bid farewell to everyone before leaving with him.

The two of them soon left the studio in their car, Aurora excitedly told him about the exciting day she had at the studio.

5 minutes before 4 pm, Theo parked his car next to the restaurant.

That night would be the opening night of the restaurant after half a month closed, so when the two of them entered the restaurant, they found everyone extremely busy in preparation for tonight's service.

Theo headed for the kitchen while Aurora searched for June when the two of them entered the kitchen.

When Theo entered the kitchen, he found that most of the cooks had already arrived, so he didn't waste much time before putting on his chef clothes.

Everyone already knew the drill, so when Theo called everyone to start cooking, they didn't even hesitate on what they should start working on.

Even though they had been on vacation for half a month, they already knew decorated the drill before the service.

In such a way, for the next two hours, they worked nonstop to finish all the preparations before the service started.

The restaurant was full of clients soon after doors were opened, it seemed like everyone was anxious to eat the delicious food served at the restaurant.

It was another beautiful night for the clients and the restaurant employees.

That's why everyone had a happy face when the service ended later that night.

Theo was extremely satisfied with everything.

For the next few weeks, today's schedule would be repeated.

Morning workout, anime production, and cooking at the restaurant.
