Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Chapter 203: New Channel of Demon Vision

"Golem, do you need to eat?"

Drogo looked at Agumon who was eating the buns with confusion and asked Fulin.

"Theoretically, no."

"Then what is it doing? This is my lunch!" Drogo pointed at Agumon and complained to its creator.

"You wrote in the monster settings that it likes to eat."

"Is this a problem with the monster's settings? Shouldn't the key be where the food was eaten?"

"Oh, this is a small design I added. I thought its belly would be empty anyway, so I might as well use it to store things. So I engraved a preservation rune inside. Many mages have the habit of using golems to store things." Fulin explained seriously.

"Oh, save something, save something..."

Drogo thought this function was quite convenient, but no, how should he take that thing out?

He glanced at Agumon, his eyes unconsciously moving downwards.

"You wouldn't be so crazy as to give it an excretion system, would you?"

"What kind of nonsense are you thinking? Of course not. It can't be digested!"

Flynn couldn't understand Drogo's train of thought.

"Then how do we get the things it stores out?"

"Spit it out, of course."

"This isn't any better, is it?"

"Doesn't your treasure chest monster also spit things out?" Fulin felt that Drogo was simply a super double-standard dragon.

How could a dragon that gets everything from vomiting up by a treasure chest monster have any right to look down on her, Agumon?

"Besides, Agumon is much cuter than Mimic!" Fulin pointed at the innocent-looking Mimic in the corner of the room.

It's very strange. The treasure chest monster doesn't even have a face, only a mouth, but it looks very innocent.

To the extent that there is now a small but significant group of treasure chest monster fans in the forum.

"My treasure chest monster doesn't put food in it either?" Drogo was shocked. Eating and using can be the same. "It's too disgusting to spit out food!"

"It's quite elaborate to pretend. When it was just hatched from its shell, it could only eat the meat chewed up by its mother. At least Agumon doesn't chew."

"This feature must be removed in the official version." Drogo saved his remaining lunch from Agumon's mouth.

Flynn looked disappointed.

The current Agumon is still far less capable than his image in the animation.

It cannot speak, and only has a fixed voice pack, including classic lines from the animation and players' own recordings, but the number is very limited.

The device used for recording is of course the Digimon Dinosaur.

Its intelligence level is not high either, probably one of the smarter ones among dogs. Even so, it can execute many more commands than traditional golems, and can learn some commands. It turns out that the commands that golems can understand are all written in advance during production, so they are very stupid.

As for the evolution that frightened Drogo, it was not a real transformation, as the golem's functions were not yet that advanced.

It's just a simple illusion. It's impossible to really create a golem of War Greymon. Even without adding skills, its size alone is already very dangerous.

This is making toys, not weapons.

But seeing an Agumon that can run, move, spit fireballs, and can be played with already makes Drogo very happy.

Designing the entrance to the digital world as a home game console, which kid can resist it?

"How long does it take an ordinary wizard to make a golem like this?" asked Drogo.

Special emphasis was placed on ordinary mages, after all, Fulin's efficiency is beyond the reach of normal people.

"For an ordinary wizard, it might take ten to fifteen days." Fulin thought for a moment and answered.

“What if everyone specializes in making just one part of it?”

Drogo naturally wanted to turn golem production into an assembly line.

"It's not feasible. The parts made by different wizards may reject each other when combined together."

"Well, then we can only go the high-end route of handmade customization."

With too many product lines opening at the same time, production capacity is always a problem.

Fortunately, the price of Digimon Golem cannot be affordable for the general public, and it is labeled as handmade and customized, which is more in line with the preferences of the nobles.

The Digimon Dinosaur is the one that will sell well, as it fills the market gap left by yo-yos and gyroscopes as their popularity has declined.

The Magic Device version of the Tyrannosaurus Rex displays all color animations, which is much better than the original black and white pixel blocks.

There is no difficulty in the production process. The Zhuoge Group is already familiar with this kind of thing.

"Now we just have to wait for the animation to be released, and then we can distribute the products across the board."

As for the animation, Drogo chose to outsource or acquire a new team.

Because the main force responsible for animation production under Drogo is all working on the Tom and Jerry project, Digimon's animation can only be outsourced to an outsourced team.

Ever since Tom and Jerry became an instant hit, many artists who are interested in animation as a form of expression have begun their own attempts and produced many works.

There is a huge gap between them and Cat and Mouse. After all, every second of Cat and Mouse is earned by burning money, and those emerging small teams cannot afford such costs.

But the animations produced are still quite good, and the themes are basically absurd comedies with animal protagonists, traditional stories, or comic adaptations.

No matter in which world, animation is inseparable.

The level should be enough to make "Digimon Adventure".

Even though each episode is more than 20 minutes long, there may not be even one episode with cat and mouse troubles even if you add up all ten episodes.

First of all, the frame rate is much lower. In order to save costs, many animations will use a method of one picture staying for two frames, or two pictures staying for three frames.

Secondly, there are relatively few actions. During conversations, people will stand still if possible. Even during fighting scenes, there will be a pause after the action.

Drogo intends to optimize this part, but not to the extent of cat and mouse.

After all, the main function of Digimon is advertising, and it would be impossible to recover the cost if it was done so well.

And there is another benefit to doing this, which is that one episode can be updated per week.

Eat a lot and be full.

However, no one has tried to make a long animation so far. Even the comic adaptations are short, with a maximum of about ten episodes.

Each episode is no more than ten minutes long and is in the form of a unit drama.

Because of the excessive success of Tom and Jerry, it seemed that the ideas of local artists were suddenly boxed in, and no one dared to try animation beyond the framework of Tom and Jerry.

It's still Drogo who has to come.

The good news is that the first animation dubbing team appeared in Twin Towers City, dubbing the rare lines in the current animation.

Drogo had heard of it before, and to be honest, although it was a completely new profession here, because it was a career change from a professional drama troupe, the effect sounded better than many local animations he had seen in his previous life.

There are no artificial or templated voices. No matter what animation it is, as long as the character is the male protagonist, the villain, the uncle, the girl, the child, or the mature woman, the dubbing is almost the same as if they were cast in the same mold.

He is good at controlling the voice, but his acting skills are seriously lacking.

It feels like the dubbing idol, not the dubbing actor. Of course, the blame cannot be borne by the dubbing actor alone, the dubbing director also has to bear a large part of the responsibility.

"Elsa, has the animation team confirmed it?"

“Currently, the teams that are interested, have time available, and are of decent quality are Sapphire Art in Wangcheng and Joseph Animation here.

“The former is more experienced and has been established for a year and a half. It has produced two five-episode animations, which were broadcasted in the local time slot of Wangcheng Magic Vision and received good responses. The second part has a lot of fighting scenes and also uses dubbing.

"The latter is a new team that has only made one animated short commercial. Their technology is very good, and they have painters from our Tom and Jerry team serving as their guidance consultants." Elsa introduced the general situation of the two teams.

"Our painter is serving as a consultant? Where do they find the time?" Drogo was very surprised.

Theoretically, the production team of Tom and Jerry works five days a week and eight hours a day, but they are in a state of internal competition among themselves. Drogo has never really asked for anything, so they extend their own working hours to more than ten hours and often work overtime on weekends.

The update frequency was increased from monthly to three weeks.

To be honest, it's a bit of a scab, but the butt determines the head, so Drogo likes it.

"In fact, many people in our team have the idea of starting their own business, but they are reluctant to give up their work for the group, so they often work their own jobs on night shifts," Aisha explained, "because even this is easier than most factory jobs."

"Wow." Drogo couldn't help but exclaim.

Or maybe capital is too anthropomorphic, making this dragon seem more like a human.

"In that case, let's both teams try to do an episode and see which one is more suitable."

"Okay, one more question."

"what?"

"The prime time slot of our Magic TV station is already scheduled for half a year later. Once Digimon is produced, it will probably be either late at night or scheduled for half a year later."

"Huh?" Drogo hadn't paid attention to the development of Magic Vision for a while, and he didn't expect that the program had started to overflow.

It is not a good idea to cancel a program that has already been scheduled. Doing business requires the spirit of contract. Casually changing a scheduled program will make the partners feel insecure.

"Then can we start our new Magic TV station plan?"

The plan to add Magic TV channels has been around for a long time, and the existing Magic TV machines have a reserved channel-changing function, but it has never been used.

The technical difficulties were also overcome early by Dr. Fabrice and Doudou. By adjusting the positioning runes, they could receive different magic crystal clones.

Without changing the hardware structure of the current generation of Magic TV machines, the maximum number of Magic TV channels that can be received is five.

The second Magic TV channel planned is a cultural and entertainment channel.

More serious content, such as news, weather forecasts, dramas with serious themes, and interview and teaching programs are retained on Channel One.

More entertaining content, such as animations and variety shows, are moved to the second channel, which can also occasionally broadcast some live events.

Yo-yo competitions, auto chess competitions, and magic dodgeball competitions are all events with a large mass base.

"It's possible, but the variety show content may be a bit thin. Our variety show recruitment plan did not recruit many distinctive variety shows."

After the sword-forging competition was broadcast, the Drogo Group publicly recruited investors who were interested in making the show.

The group can provide technical support and professional guidance.

"What do we have now?"

"Magic Device Competition, Alchemy Competition, Appraisal Competition, Enchanting Competition..."

"That's enough." Drogo felt his scalp tingling after hearing this.

Following the trend? It's understandable. Everyone likes to follow a successful plan, and Drogo does the same.

But we can’t all follow the trend.

There is a kind of rap variety show that once it comes out, the beauty of rap variety shows will be everywhere.

There are more rap artists than rap listeners.

"There is a variety show we are focusing on right now, which is a music variety show. The Moshi operation team thinks it has great prospects."

“It’s not rap music, is it?”

"Ah? Rap, do you mean the street performances that the dwarves perform? Of course not, it's just a singing variety show."

"Oh, that's worth talking about."

If there is a new hit variety show, home game consoles can also become the title sponsor of that variety show, which will then attract double traffic together with the cartoon and maximize the popularity.

"Okay, I'll contact Sir Craig right away."

"Who?"

---------

"Who?"

In the laboratory of the Repin Academy, Xiao Mo asked his brother puzzledly.

"Sir Craig, the paralyzed sir, not the little brat who shows off his wealth in the city every day." Big Mo replied.

"So who are these two?"

"Sir's name is Gordo Craig. He is the uncle of little Craig."

Da Mo introduced the experimental equipment while debugging it.

"To be honest, the knight is also a pitiful man. Oh, I didn't expect that I would sympathize with a man with assets worth tens of millions of gold coins."

The equipment on the lab table emitted a bunch of sparks. Da Mo slammed the table in annoyance, took off his gloves, and prepared to take a break.

“He was supposed to be the current patriarch of the Craig family, but at the age of 28, he was diagnosed with a strange disease that caused him to lose the ability to move, starting with his limbs.

"It is said that he will be completely unable to move in the end and can only wait for death, but he is relatively lucky because he has enough money to hire someone to take care of him."

"Like it's freezing little by little?" Xiao Mo asked.

"Just like it's frozen bit by bit. Ha, I like your description." Da Mo picked up the burnt equipment.

"Can I see it?"

"Of course." Da Mo handed the thing over and continued telling the story of Sir Craig.

"No matter doctors, druids, priests, or even the shaman who appeared out of nowhere, no one could find a cure. It is said that he even spent a large sum of money to let a legendary wizard perform the Nine Rings Prayer on him, but unfortunately, that could only slow down the process of his death and could not completely cure him. Fate is so unreasonable, right?"

Xiao Mo nodded and continued to fiddle with the things in his hands.

"Later, he came to his senses and wanted to make some contribution before he died, so he funded a lot of research, free of charge. One-fifth of the student projects in our school were funded by him, including mine."

"Online music player magic device project?"

"What's wrong? I think this project is pretty good. The Jazz is also very optimistic about me. He said that if it succeeds, it will also help a big plan of his. I think it's a variety show."

"All right."

"What's better?"

"Your project is ready." Xiao Mo handed the adjusted equipment back to his brother.

“What do you mean my project is ready?”

Da Mo's voice rose several degrees.

"The mistake you made was simple. I fixed it."

"So fast?"

"It's not difficult. If you study hard, you can fix it."

Da Mo held his forehead weakly. Some people say that an ordinary person's lifetime achievement may be to save a genius's afternoon.

It looks like it will take less than an afternoon.

Da Mo ran a simple test and found no problem.

"Now, you have to come with me to meet Sir Craig."
