Entertainment: Is this how you play music?!

Chapter 262: "Black Myth" Project Approved? !

What happened next was predictable.

Not only did he not dodge the third bite.

The fourth and fifth mouthfuls were poured in through the crack of the throat.

The content was so fantastic that Li Can even doubted whether his own level of abstraction was not deep enough.

"This B protagonist is nothing, yet he insists on going to dangerous places. He won't listen to others' advice. The main point is that even if you are weak, you still have to protect Smile?"

"It would be fine if he went alone, but he took the initiative to bring along a child from the same village who was infected and brainwashed? The child was attacked and killed by a strange beast, and he's still howling?"

“Then he awakened his power and killed the monster in seconds, but because he killed the monster, he became afraid of his own ability? He never used it, until the hero didn’t use his ability and another supporting character also died?!”

This time it’s not just Chen Ganghongwen.

But everyone in the band was excited.

"A typical Japanese comic routine, but I didn't learn any of the good ones, but the history was copied vividly."

"I really am."

Chen Gang’s summary is extremely to the point.

The red and warm face revealed the inner unrest.

Isn't the reason why we have illusions about Chinese comics because we can avoid some of the excruciating micro-history in excellent Japanese comics?

As a result, this history has been further complicated.

"That's actually not bad. I just watched the Resurrection of Lover, which was outrageous. That one was even more heavyweight."

"This is even more amazing. The protagonist died suddenly due to a reckless attack, and the supporting character reversed time three times in a row. He died suddenly each time due to impulsiveness, and his death posture and position were exactly the same. Even after three consecutive cheats, he couldn't be saved at all. Is this for show?"

"Didn't the protagonist die? He should be able to be saved, otherwise how can the plot be advanced?"

"There's no hope. One second he says fate cannot be defied, and the next second the villain suddenly decides to leave. The main point is that the villain defies fate at will."

"what?"

"what?"

Everyone was shocked.

I couldn't believe what I heard.

“Is the threshold for screenwriting so low now?”

"Not only that, even the mentally ill can write novels, it's normal for the mentally retarded to be screenwriters."

Li Can curled his lips.

I had no choice but to continue reading the project content.

The Akaishi Conference is worthy of being the Akaishi Conference, and it leaves you with a lingering aftertaste.

It is likely that the smell is dissipated by the animation without excellent content.

Next project.

Although there is nothing particularly outrageous, it can really only be said to be mediocre.

Screening of animation projects.

Li Can has always adhered to two standards.

Script content, and art content.

He may not have been picky in the past, but now there is really no need to pursue "a masterpiece from a bad movie". What Li Can wants to do is to use excellent music to set off the whole.

".However, let's continue to study animation and look at the gaming field. I feel that animations made in the gaming field are better than those made in the animation field."

Li Can's words immediately made everyone present nod their heads.

Chen Gang agreed with this even more.

"What you said makes sense."

Good anime is indeed hard to come by.

In a huge team, it is not acceptable for only one party to act like a human being, but it is extremely difficult for everyone to act like a human being.

Are discussing.

There was a knock on the office door.

"Enter!"

Hearing Li Can's weak voice, Wang Yongchang pushed the door open and started joking with a smile.

"What's wrong, my little ancestor? Who has offended you again?"

".If you have something to say, just say it. How come even you, Old Wang, have become so abstract?"

"I learned that from you!"

Wang Yongchang sat down with a smile and threw the documents in his hand to Li Can.

"I think you might be interested in this project, but I'll tell you in advance that the project team is very poor and there is definitely not much money. We can only rely on profit sharing. The cycle is long and the risks are high. But the pie in the sky looks okay at the moment, and the industry is waiting and watching."

"Let me take a look"

Just take a look.

Li Can's eyes could no longer move away.

The art illustrations in the project files are so detailed.

But that's not the point; the point is the characters.

Monkey King, Monkey King.

"Let me take a look at the tentative title, "Dark Journey to the West", and the alternative titles are "The Legend of Wukong" and "Black Mythology"?

Li Can sat up straight, his pupils trembling slightly.

My teacher Xu Qing once composed the music for the Monkey King.

Over the years, there have been countless animations about Sun Wukong.

A classic in the memory of the Chinese people.

"."

After taking a look at the plot, Li Can frowned.

The plot design is bold, but in Li Can's opinion, it is very safe.

From the name of the game, you might think that the game character controlled by the player is the Monkey King, but in fact, it is not. It looks like just another little monkey. The Monkey King is the goal that the game character is pursuing.

This design is actually more secure.

It is even more in line with the player's state of mind.

Most of the children in Xia Country have thought about becoming the Monkey King who caused havoc in Heaven, but when they reach the age to play games, they more or less have no realistic feeling about becoming the Monkey King.

You still have to walk your own journey to the West.

This kind of magical design can actually better serve the game's plot.

"interesting."

Maybe it's because Shi eats too much that he looks handsome in everything he looks at, or maybe it's the halo of the Monkey King.

Although there is no plot revealed in the document.

Compared to the files for the animation project, the shelf looks really empty.

But Li Can suddenly became interested and wanted to learn more about it.

"Don't worry, there's another one."

Wang Yongchang chuckled and motioned Li Can to continue reading.

Li Can was stunned for a moment and found that there were two documents in the folder in his hand.

Flipping through another document, Li Can nodded and understood what Wang Yongchang meant.

Another project is an independent project of a foreign game.

The project was sent by Sony.

Obviously, Sony couldn't sit still, so it used game music as an excuse to ask Li Can to produce music for it.

In terms of musical content, it is indeed curious enough to attract the interest of musicians.

【Victoria Cthulhu】

Cthulhu is not just unique in the field of literature.

The extensions of art and music are equally peculiar.

Li Can naturally has a deep understanding of Cthulhu music, and it is very much to his taste.

It is likely the resonance of the ancient gods.

But the part about how music's differences and anti-human applications torture people's spirits is indeed quite interesting.

Seeing Li Can showing an interested expression, Wang Yongchang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Which one to choose?"

"Oh, only children make choices."

Li Can stood up and clenched his fists.

"I want it all!"

Wang Yongchang was not surprised at all to hear this answer, and even felt that it was reasonable.

The workload on Sony's side is not heavy, only singles.

Matchmaking seems to be the point.

And Li Can really wanted to enter the Japanese market, so it was natural that they hit it off.

There is risk protection in cooperating with large companies, and putting two projects together is a complete risk hedge.

He immediately smiled and nodded.

"Okay, then I'll make an appointment for you and arrange a time for the announcement."

"to make."

Having reached an idea, Lao Wang took quick action.

Li Can and his brothers also quickly started a discussion.

"Good fellow, Brother Can, if Professor Xu knew that you could take over the game soundtrack for Sun Wukong, he would definitely be very touched."

Lin Feng immediately said what everyone wanted to say.

Feeling all the eyes falling on him, Li Can also smiled slightly.

“This is called the inheritance of destiny.”

"Let's put the monkey aside for now. If we do this, we will definitely have to do it more aggressively. It should be a big project. I think we can study the invitation from Sony first."

Li Can pinched his chin and frowned in thought.

Sony's games are notoriously expensive, which is absolutely the root of all evil.

It's exactly the same as the Paradise next door, a common problem among Japanese companies.

But if we look at other aspects, the collaboration and investment in music are indeed worth the money.

"Cthulhu, Brother Can, this style is very rare."

Zhao Ze came closer curiously.

He was amazed.

"No, it shouldn't even be called rare, it should be said to be extremely rare."

“It’s very rare.”

It was not surprising to Li Can that Zhao Ze, the string music master, would be interested in the Cthulhu style.

In the depiction of Cthulhu's "disorder", "chaos", "madness" and "unknown", music often uses atonal techniques or some counterintuitive and dissonant chords to create texture.

In terms of timbre, string instruments are often used, even on a large scale and beyond specifications.

we can even say.

Only strings.

There is a saying in the music industry.

How good a musician is can be seen from his use of string instruments.

Being able to perform "Love me like you do" at the Grammy Awards deeply touched many people in the industry.

The use of strings in the climax of the chorus is essential as an emotional embellishment.

The reason why Cthulhu music is niche.

It’s not because the subject matter is niche.

It’s not because the song might sound bad due to the suppression technique.

Simply because “string music is difficult to write about”.

If string music is not well written, there will be no sense of immersion at all, and the emotional impact will only make people irritated.

In fact.

Many people are curious about the "K" series of artworks.

However, this curiosity will fade away due to "boredom" in the first step of trying to gain a deeper understanding.

Especially music, the impact is the most direct.

String instruments are 300% important in K-style music, but there are only a few masters in the world who can use string instruments flexibly.

Perhaps they can use string instruments in many ways from a music theory perspective.

But whether it can be accepted by the market is a question.

K-style music is a typical thankless task with an extremely high degree of difficulty. If you are not careful, it will enter a small circle and is extremely difficult to commercialize.

But such content is very attractive to musicians of Li Can's level.

Sony is indeed taking an unconventional approach and choosing a surprising strategy.

"The Monkey Project is expected to take quite some time, so I'll follow up on it first. The Sony project can be completed in a short time, so I'll finish the Sony project first. If I can use this to open up a channel of communication with the Japanese company, it will also be beneficial for future plans."

Li Can made a decision immediately.

The studio sprang into action.

After all, Devil Power is a part-time band, and besides being in a band, everyone has other special skills.

Arrangement of different tone parameters, mixing, recording, vocals, and computer input according to music scores.

It's impossible to let Li Can do everything by himself.

In order to move the work forward quickly.

Li Can then asked Wang Yongchang to contact Sony directly to finalize the contract.

"What?! Are you saying that Li Jun really agreed?!"

After receiving the news, Shinichi Yoshida, the project director of "Cursed Blood Hunter", jumped up from his seat in an instant.

His face was full of unexpected surprise.

This was just an attempt by Sony, and they were prepared for failure, but they didn't expect it to succeed.

The unexpected surprise made Shinichi Yoshida burst into laughter.

"With Li Jun here, what kind of performance effect can't be achieved? I'm already looking forward to the day when I can shock the players!"
