Chapter 149: Hometown

Chrome Channel Station, Sakura City.

The channel had a complex of buildings as the headquarters of the station.

The channel had a history of more than 30 years.

Even though it was not the most popular channel, the station had a steady stream of audience.

The channel mostly had animes being broadcasted in their timetable.

So, they valued finding new and good animes to put in the schedule.

Ryoko and Dottie got out of the cab in front of the building.

They looked at the imponent building and heaved a sigh.

'Now I am the head director. You can do this, Ryoko!' the blue-haired girl said inwardly as she walked into the building.

"Hello, I am Ryoko Riverdale and I have a meeting with the Broadcast Management Team?" Ryoko said as she arrived at the greeter counter.

"Good morning, wait a minute for me to check, please." The greeter replied with a professional smile.

Ryoko nodded and waited.

A minute later, the greeter said with a smile, "Miss Riverdale, you can go directly to the sixth floor. You will be guided to the conference room there."

"Okay, thank you." Ryoko replied.

The two women walked into the elevator and pressed the button to take them to the sixth floor.

A while later, they were guided to a conference room.

It was still 10:55 am, so they waited patiently for the meeting time to arrive.

At 11 am, Ryoko saw a middle-aged man entering the room with another middle-aged woman.

Ryoko and Dottie stood up from their chairs when they saw that.

"Miss Riverdale, right?"

"I am Zakaria Ross, one of the managers that care for the selling of broadcast spots. This is my partner Oda Haya, she is also a manager." The middle-aged man said with a smile as he shook Ryoko's hand.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Ross. I am Ryoko Riverdale, Tokyo Studios' Head Director. This is Dottie Dixon, our lawyer." Ryoko said with a professional voice.

Zakaria and Oda couldn't help but be surprised when they heard that.

Ryoko seemed to be so young to occupy such a prestigious position.

And the way that Ryoko seemed like she was used to being in her position.

It couldn't be helped, Ryoko acquired the presence that all bosses had.

Zakaria and Oda were even more confused because they never heard of these Tokyo Studios.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Riverdale and Mrs. Dixon." Oda said with a smile as she motioned them to take their seats.

Ryoko nodded as she sat down.

"I presume Miss Riverdale came here intending to buy a broadcast spot for the spring anime season?" Zakaria asked.

"Yes, more precisely, the Wednesday 11 pm spot." Ryoko replied.

"Great! We brought the contract here for you to see." Oda said as she passed a stack of papers to Ryoko.

Ryoko took the papers and passed them to Dottie for her to inspect.

"I imagine that Miss Riverdale knows that you are buying these spots without partnering with the Channel, right?" Zakaria asked.

"Yes, I know." Ryoko replied.

It was important to notice that when a studio bought broadcast spots from TV channels, there were two ways of buying them.

The first method worked with a partnership between the studio and the channel. The studio would get a payment from the channel proportional to the number of views that the anime would get for each episode.

But this method would only be offered to famous animes with a big audience.

In the second method, the studio would buy the broadcast spots from the channel and would not get anything back from the channel.

The studio was basically paying to broadcast their anime so that they could earn money from other methods. Because they would not get money from broadcasting, the studio would sell merchandise and streaming rights to earn money with the anime.

And obviously, Tokyo Studios was buying broadcast spots with the second method.

Theo predicted that he would invest at least 5 million to produce the SAO anime and he highly doubted that he could earn back this money by just selling merchandise.

That's why he wanted to launch his own streaming service.

He would be able to put his animes into the streaming service and earn back the money he invested with the subscription of viewers attracted by the animes it would be on the platform.

And because Theo would launch his streaming service in multiple countries, he predicted that he would earn a big profit as the Tokyo Studios released popular animes.

His target audience would not only be people watching TV in the Sakura Abode Country, it would be people from all over the world.

His ultimate goal was to have a streaming service even more popular compared to the Crunchyroll Service from his past life.

He would still broadcast his animes on TV but he would not care if he get a partnership with the channels.

A while later, Dottie finished inspecting the contract.

"Everything is okay. They just want the first episode to be sent to them one month before the spring season starts." Dottie whispered to Ryoko.

Ryoko nodded, she already expected that.

It was normal for the channels to inspect the animes before being broadcasted.

"I see that everything is fine. We can sign it if you guys don't have anything to add?" Ryoko said with a firm voice.

"Great! Let's sign it then." Zakaria said with a smile.

Shortly after, Ryoko and Oda signed the purchase contract after Ryoko transferred 2 million to the bank account that Zakaria told her about.

"Thank you for the cooperation!" Oda said as she shook Ryoko's hands.

"Thank you for the cooperation!" Ryoko said with a small smile.

She could not help but be happy as she saw her mission completed.

Ryoko bade goodbye to Zakaria and Oda as she kept with care the purchase contract in her briefcase.

This document was too important for her to mess up, so he had to be extra careful.

The two women exited the building a while later.

When they got out, Ryoko started jumping around to celebrate.

Dottie smiled as she saw the happy girl.

She was proud to see that the deal was completed and Ryoko was so professional there that Dottie started admiring the blue-haired girl.

"Come on! We have to go to the real estate agency now." Ryoko said with a smile after she finished her victory dance.

"Okay." Dottie replied.

The two women took a cab and headed toward the real estate agency.

Ryoko had to buy the building that Theo picked it.

They arrived there after a while, and everything went without any problems.

Ryoko inspected the building first, she was satisfied with what she saw.

'We can make a fine voice acting studio here.' she said inwardly as she walked through the building.

"We will buy immediately." She said to the real estate agent that accompanied her and Dottie.

"Now? I suppose we can go back to the agency and sign the contract then." the agent replied.

A while later, Ryoko transferred 2.5 million to the real estate agency and signed the contract.

Tokyo Studios had finally a building in Sakura City!

After the contract was inspected by Dottie, Ryoko said to the middle-aged woman to enjoy the city while she went to a renovation company.

Dottie went to visit some relatives she had in Sakura City then.

Ryoko spent the whole afternoon with the renovation company taking care of all the things she wanted in the building.

She wanted to be a beautiful project that would at least not shame the beautiful headquarters of the studio in Elffire City.

Ryoko's comeback to Sakura City was much better than she ever dreamed.

And Ryoko's day ended even better when she got to the hotel where she had a reservation after deciding everything with the renovation company.

It was a star hotel!

pᴀɴdᴀ Ryoko was shocked that she would be in such a luxurious hotel.

After doing the check-in, she went to her room.

And it was so beautiful and comfy.

She never imagined that she would be in such a luxurious hotel when she got back to her hometown.

Ryoko took a shower and dressed in some casual clothes.

She left her room and took a cab.

A while later, she was standing in front of a sign that said 'Rainbow Sakura Cemetery'.

Ryoko bought some flowers and walked through the cemetery.

Shortly after, she arrived in front of a tombstone that said.

[Ohori Riverdale, 1970-2016, A Mother To A Lost Girl]

Ryoko knelt in front of it and placed the flowers there.

"Hey, mom, sorry I didn't come to visit lately." Ryoko smiled as tears started coming out of her eyes.

"But your daughter is a big boss now. Can you believe it?"

"My dreams became true! I'm sure you must be happy for me. Our first anime will be released in four months. I'm sure you will like it."

"Don't worry about what happened a while back. Even though those bastards are free. I will make them pay someday."

"I miss you so much..." Ryoko whispered as a stream of tears rolled on her cheeks.

"I wish you see how far I came." Ryoko cried silently.

Only the one who knew the pain of losing a loving mother could imagine what Ryoko was feeling.

The pain would never go away.

She could only learn how to live with it.

Ryoko bade goodbye to her mother and went to the hotel.

Her heart was much lighter after talking with her mother.

Now she could move to Elffire City without looking back.

She wanted to sleep in her hometown one last time before leaving for her new home.
