Chapter 293 Branch Studio Talkings

"Sure, it will be done." Ryoko replied with an excited voice.

She had to admit that she was excited about hiring the voice actors.

After all, when they finished hiring the voice actors, all the factors needed to produce their anime would be in their hands.

"Who's going to run the studio in Sakura City?" Ryoko asked suddenly.

It was not possible to bring the voice actors to Elffire City as they did with the animators.

The animators didn't have an option as the opportunity to work in a studio was rare for them.

But with the voice actors was a different story.

They had much more opportunities in Sakura City as new animes were being produced constantly, and there was a huge search for voice actors.

And if they were talented, they could get on big roles in a famous animes.

So, there were no voice actors who would be willing to move to Elffire City.

That's why Theo opened a branch studio in Sakura City, this branch studio would take care of recording the voice tracks produced by the voice actors.

Then these tracks would be sent to the main studio in Elffire City, here they would synchronize the voice tracks and edit them to the animation.

Therefore, Sakura City's branch studio would only produce the voice tracks, but even then people with sufficient knowledge in sound engineering were necessary to record and interact with the voice actors.

"Do you know any trustworthy person who can be responsible for that studio?" Theo asked.

Ryoko became silent for a while.

She didn't know many people in Sakura City who they could trust, after everything she had been through in her last job, she was able to discover that most people she knew chose to believe her abuser's story.

Only Ryoko's classmates from college believed in her.

"I might know someone." Ryoko said after thinking for a while.

Ryoko remembered one person who was one of her best friends in college.

Amano Rio studied animation in college with Ryoko, Brianna, Zofia, and the others.

Ryoko, Brianna, and Rio were inseparable, and the three of them had a profound passion for animation.

But in the third year of college, Rio's parents became bankrupt.

They were not able to pay for Rio's college anymore, it was then that Rio dropped out of college to start working.

She wanted to help her parents.

Ryoko and Rio were still friends, but they drifted apart as time passed.

But when Ryoko was humiliated and fired from the animation studio she worked at, Rio was one of the few that called Ryoko to comfort her and say that she believed in her.

Even though Rio was powerless to help her, Ryoko saw that Rio still believed and treated her as a close friend after all those years apart.

Ryoko realized that Rio was a friend for life and that she would never betray her friends.

The two girls talked for hours that day, Ryoko vented all the grievances that she suffered during her internship, and Rio told Ryoko how her last years were for her.

Rio gave up on her dream to be an animator, and she graduated from a public community college in business management.

These colleges were funded by the government of the country to provide a college education for poor families.

And Rio managed to graduate from this college.

The last time that Ryoko talked to Rio, she was working as a manager at a fast-food branch restaurant.

Ryoko had already invited Rio to come to Elffire City to work in the studio, but Rio rejected.

Rio had to stay in Sakura City to take care of her old-aged parents.

"Her name is Amano Rio. We studied together in college. But due to some personal reasons, she had to drop out of the animation college. Later she graduated in business management. So, I can say that she is knowledgeable in animation and business management." Ryoko described Rio to Theo.

"Wow! She seems perfect for the job!" Theo exclaimed happily.

"Yeah, I think she is the perfect person for the manager of the branch studio." Ryoko said with an expectant voice.

Even though she wanted to hire Rio right away, this decision was with Theo.

After all, he was the studio owner and her boss.

"I agree. If you trust her that much, I trust her too. Hire her as soon as possible. Her salary cannot be too high, as it is only a branch studio. Let's set her salary at 25k dollars per month." Theo replied with a calm voice.

But Ryoko was everything but calm.

Her heart swelled in happiness when she heard Theo's words, her friend finally could work in her dream job!

Especially when she heard how much Theo wanted to pay Rio monthly.

25 thousand dollars!

That amount of money was almost what she earned per year as a manager at the fast-food branch restaurant!

But Rio would be the Head Manager of Theo's branch studio, she needed to earn a salary worthy of her position.

She would take care of all the procedures in Sakura City in the future, which meant that her workload would be huge.

So, Theo did not mind paying her so much money.

Ryoko could not wait to tell Rio the great news.

"You will not regret this decision, boss!" Ryoko exclaimed gratefully.

"I'm sure I won't." Theo laughed.

He knew what Ryoko had been through, and if Ryoko trusted so much this Rio, she really must be a trustworthy person.

"After you hire Rio. Talk to her to start the procedures to open the studio. Hiring a security company to take care of the building security, hiring assistants, and so on." Theo said calmly.

"Oh, also ask the sound engineers who just were hired if they know any trustworthy sound engineers in Sakura City. We will need capable sound engineers in the branch studio to be able to record the vocal tracks made by the sound actors." Theo added.

Sound engineers were essential to these procedures as they would guide and help the voice actors.

But Theo wanted trustworthy people.

Even though it was impossible to occur a leak of his animes with Sylph taking care of his network security, that included the network of Sakura City's branch studio.

So, even if a traitor appeared in the branch studio, they would not be able to leak the voice tracks.

As the voice tracks would be the only thing in the branch studio's database.

No animation would pass through the branch studio.

But Theo did not like the thought of having untrustworthy people working in his studio, so he wanted Ryoko to look for honest and trustworthy sound engineers.

"Don't worry about it. By the time the auditions start next Saturday, the branch studio will be ready for operations." Ryoko affirmed with a determined voice.

"I know, I believe in you." Theo chuckled.

The two of them talked about other details of the anime production before they hang up the phone.

Ryoko had to go back to work and start the procedures to open the branch studio.

And Theo had to start editing the last song of his album.

But before he did that, he had a lovely lunch with his sister.

They ate their meatball sandwiches as they watched an anime in the living room.

When they finished, Aurora decided to take a nap, and Theo headed to the recording studio.

He had multiple thoughts as he edited the last song of his album.

And one of them was about the production of his third music video.

He wondered if Arthur and his crew would be able to finish the shootings of the music video before tomorrow.
