Is it okay not to want to work hard?

To describe it in detail, his performance is the conflict between grand narrative and individual destiny.

Even if they are time travelers or people with super powers, they are still living in reality, not in a world of low logic or even no logic or production. There is no suffering, and the world is either a fairy tale world of joy and dance or innocence and poetry.

"It's done, it's finally done!"

After finishing the suit, Higashino Kanade stood up and stretched his muscles.

After sitting in the room all day, from morning till night, he finally finished the suit for this party, and now he can relax a lot. The animation of "False Hero" will also be broadcast next week, and then he will be more relaxed, and then he will return to the life of making animations for "Gee Kawai", drawing books and comics.

As for the song "The Old Man and the Sea" that was brought over from another world, he had already completed it, with Hongxia singing and drums, Ichiri and Kita on guitar, and Ryo and Kikuri on bass.

Originally, he didn't plan to bother Ju Li with the song "The Old Man and the Sea", but all the members of Bad Apple except Ju Li were there, and if Ju Li didn't come, careful fans might notice it. If they suspected that they were isolating Ju Li or kicking her out of the band, they would have to run around to dispel the rumor.

This is not impossible. Bad Apple's song "Dancing Girl" is still very popular. Many people are urging him to release a new song. The new song that many people are looking forward to should still be sung by Kikuri. It's fine if Kikuri is not the lead singer this time, but if this name doesn't appear, then there might be a problem.

Although he will definitely write new songs later, if the fans are making a fuss, he will have to release new songs early. He has finally finished all the things he has to do and is about to have a happy and relaxing rest time. If he has to write new songs to appease the fans and run around looking for them to dub and sing, he will be very annoyed.

To be honest, he regretted forming this useless band that only performed on the Internet, but since the band had been formed, what else could he do but to slowly release new songs.

Chapter 121 I think this is a kind of confidence

On the last day of spring break, Quan Konaka tinkered with his own leather case.

Although the early Vtuber costumes in the virtual anchor industry were all 3D and there were no 2D image costumes, as long as Izumi Konakata debuted early enough and became popular early enough, the final right of interpretation of Vtuber would be in her hands.

Do you understand the value of being a veteran? You are making rash judgments without understanding Vtubers.

Just like the early Vtubers, everyone thought they were just skin and soul, but in the later period, they found that the skin and soul were inseparable. Even if the same person graduated and was reborn with a different skin, many fans would feel that they were no longer the same person.

Regarding Vtubers, in fact, it is quite small and the demons are strong, and the water is shallow and there are many turtles. This circle was relatively good in the early days, but later it became a world of cute people, funny people, and crazy people, and they even called it not watching V, but just watching for fun.

Little did I know that from the moment I entered, I was no longer just watching the fun, but became the fun.

The early Vtubers were still very close to two-dimensional paper people. Although they were three-dimensional people pretending to be two-dimensional people to deceive the otakus, they still adhered to their personalities and tried hard to be close to the two-dimensional world to please everyone. Things started to get chaotic after various virtual anchor companies moved in. Things became disgusting when a company wanted to make a Vtuber into an idol.

We don't know the identity of the person behind the scenes, whether he or she is in love, married, or has children, and then we use the idol business to cheat the rice of otakus. I have to say it is really disgusting, and this kind of business can easily become like the entertainment industry raising fan club poison, turning fans into brainless creatures.

Fortunately, Izumi Konata debuted early, so she can define the rules of Vtuber. After Kizuna Ai debuted, there were no new Vtubers, and Izumi Konata's debut with a 2D image was definitely eye-catching.

A debut in a 3D suit has its advantages, but a debut in a sophisticated 3D suit can make people's eyes shine, and it feels more like a person from the second dimension has walked out. Coupled with Konata's superb gaming and meme skills and her senior otaku skills, Higashino Kanade believes that Izumi Konata can become popular as a Vtuber.

Higashino Kanade hopes that Izumi Konaka can define Vtuber early on, so that in the future no one will praise Vtubers so highly, and make them like idols without having the ability of idols. Not only will the fans not think there is anything wrong with it, but they will be like filial piety and licking dogs, laughing at the fan circles in the entertainment industry without realizing that they are also in the fan circles.

However, he cannot control some people even if they want to, and can only say something unpleasant: respect the fate of others. Anyway, he will intervene in this case and let her develop into a normal YouTube host, rather than a virtual anchor who only entertains otakus and housegirls.

The Vtuber circle is still too small. If you really want to become popular, you have to be a top YouTuber. It's no use asking otakus to become popular. If you really want to become popular, you have to ask the popular ones. No matter how many old men who like the second dimension there are, they are not as many as the popular old men.

If Cifang can really become a big UP host on YouTube, then he can really live a life of relying on Cifang in the future.

The money that popular cartoonists earn from drawing comics, selling single volumes, and selling copyrights may not necessarily be as much or as fast as that earned by top anchors and internet celebrities. After all, compared to cartoonists who draw every day, the money of internet celebrities and anchors is really like Gabe Newell's money, which all comes from the wind.

Fortunately, cartoonists make more money more steadily than anchors and internet celebrities. They can make money even if they stop writing comics. However, it is difficult for YouTubers to make fans rave about gold coins every month. They have to do something every day. Even if they don’t do it every day, they have to do it periodically. Otherwise, they can’t make money even if they bite a lighter. When they stop live streaming, their popularity will drop rapidly, and their money will become less and less until there is nothing left.

It’s different for comics. They can still make money after ten or twenty years. If you’re lucky, the comics can even be adapted into an animated version and then remastered.

In any walk of life, if you want to become big and strong and reach the top, it is very hard. Even if you want to be a pirate and become the Pirate King, you may not be able to become the Pirate King even after thousands of episodes of hard work.

But even so, in Higashino Kanade's opinion, being an anchor is still easier than being a cartoonist. After all, being an anchor allows you to rest. For cartoonists who work on monthly magazines, it's okay, but it's quite difficult for weekly cartoonists to rest. Even if they can rest, they don't have as much rest time as anchors.

In the game room, Higashino Kanade taught Izumi Konata how to use the leather case. It was not difficult, just troublesome, after all, there were too many delicate movements and expressions.

I hope that when this party is live streaming or making videos, all the functions of the leather case can be displayed, instead of just using a few basic functions because they are too troublesome and ignoring other functions.

Otherwise, all the time he spent making the leather case would be wasted, and he would cry if that happened.

"It's so troublesome. I suddenly don't want to be a virtual anchor anymore."

Quan Chifang scratched his head, feeling a little annoyed.

Is it so troublesome to be a virtual anchor? It’s so annoying. Can’t you just start broadcasting directly?

"No, you want it, you really want it. I've already made the suit for you, how can you not want it? And you don't want to be a social animal in the future, right? While the virtual anchor industry is still a blue ocean, you should become popular quickly. When you become popular, you can live a comfortable life even if you don't do well. If that doesn't work out, I can let you go to China to make money. Then you can learn Chinese and watch TV dramas and become popular."

Higashino Kanade spoke out the cruel reality in all seriousness. Sakura Girl is like this, if the size is big, you can make money even if you play badly, and you can make a lot of money by chatting, singing and watching videos at Bilibili.

"Ah? You still have to learn Chinese."

When Quan Cifang heard this, his face fell.

"Just learn Chinese. With me here, you will definitely learn it. And you don't have to learn it very well. It's enough for you to say 'China is really amazing'."

Higashino Kanade believes that he may not be able to train Kondo to become a top YouTuber, but it is still easy to let Kondo on B station and make B station fans explode with gold coins. Besides, men understand men best, he himself is a man, and Kondo also has an uncle in his heart, so they can definitely easily grasp the hearts of male fans.

"really?"

Quan Konakata didn't quite believe it. Who would give money just because someone said "China is so awesome". As a Japanese, she wouldn't give her wallet to someone just because someone said "Japan is so awesome". Instead, she would complain that Japan is not awesome at all.

Although it is called a developed country, it has actually been declining, and its government is becoming increasingly corrupt, and social pressure is only increasing.

"real."

Higashino Kanade nodded helplessly.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, many Chinese people who lack confidence and hope to be recognized by foreign friends will give him money after hearing this sentence.

Chapter 122 End of Band and Unconfirmed Riot2017

In April, school started again.

Higashino Suzu and Nishimiya Yuzuru were steadily promoted to the second year of junior high school, Higashino Kanade, Izumi Konata, Nishimiya Shoko, and Goto Ichisato were steadily promoted to the second year of high school, and Ijichi Kouka was steadily promoted to the third year of high school.

In the new semester, everyone is not interested in studying, but is busy with their own things.

Higashino Suzu, who has studied comics under Higashino Kanade for a long time, is finally going to graduate. She will follow in the footsteps of Nishimiya Shoko and contribute to Houbunsha to become a monthly cartoonist. She has been preparing comics during the spring break, so in the new semester her mind will not be on studying, but on comic creation.

Her good friend Nishimiya Yuzuru, as always, focused on photography. Studying? What the hell. Being able to pass the high school entrance exam and graduate from high school is considered a success.

Needless to say, Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Shoko are both cartoonists. For them, academic studies are important, and cartoons are also important. When it comes to studying, just listen carefully in class, and when it comes to exams, you have to review well in advance.

Izumi Konata is going to start broadcasting after learning the tricks. The time is set for April 4th, when the first broadcast of new Vtubers from all over the world will be broadcast. The live broadcast notice was sent out on April 15st, the first day of school. Although early Vtubers were all video-based, and then live broadcasting became the mainstream, Higashino Kanade thinks Izumi Konata can have both video and live broadcasting.

Make a guaranteed non-live slice video every week. Some interesting content from the live broadcast can be sliced ​​and made into a new video. In this way, you can achieve both video and live broadcast momentum.

Izumi Konata made her debut as a virtual anchor, and both Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Glass did some promotion. Both of them are cartoonists with a large number of two-dimensional fans. Higashino Kanade is the pillar cartoonist of "Weekly Shonen Jump", and Nishimiya Glass is also a well-known cartoonist in Houbunsha's monthly magazine. Therefore, they both have a large fan base, and Konata's first live broadcast should not be so crowded with viewers.

This month, the band's participation in Riot2017 has also come to the online voting stage. After Hongxia and her friends finished their new song, they asked Yuzuru Nishimiya, an amateur professional photographer, to shoot the MV and posted it online. So far, the earliest song submitted has views, and the latest song has more than views.

This result allowed the band to successfully enter the unconfirmed Riot2017 audition. The next step was the online voting phase. The top bands with the highest online voting were selected from the many bands that passed the Demo phase to participate in the Live review.

If the voting passes, the band will be able to enter the Live review stage, which is the offline performance stage, and compete with 28 other bands for the only chance to stand on the final stage.

When entering the online voting session, Higashino Kanade posted the song "The Old Man and the Sea" that he had completed long ago, and then called on his fans to vote for the band.

Goto Ichiri was a little worried, or rather, resentful, about this matter.

Is this really okay?

【Use Xiaozou's fans to vote for us】

On the first day of school, Higashino Kanade was cleaning the classroom when he received a LINE message from Goto Ichiri on his phone.

【Nothing bad】

Higashino Kanade knew what Goto Ichiri was thinking. Ichiri was a little naive. She thought that the band had to rely entirely on their own strength to participate in this online voting, that is, the four of them could only rely on the fans attracted by their own MVs to win votes.

At most, he could ask his classmates and friends for help, instead of using his influence and his influence as a guitar hero to canvass votes. Because Yili believed that the votes he drew as a cartoonist and the votes she drew as a guitar hero were not the strength of the band itself.

That's true, but he and Ichiri were friends, and very close boyfriend and girlfriend. His power could be counted as ending the band, so why can't his fans' power be counted as ending the band?

For this reason, he needs to give some good advice. It is not shameful to canvass for votes, but it is shameful to rig votes. Otherwise, if he is too serious about it and the band's voting ranking does not make it into the top 30, then everyone's efforts over the past few months will not only be in vain, but it will at least make people very unwilling.

The band will be unwilling to end its business, and those who support the band’s end will also be unwilling to do so.

【One Mile】

You are the guitarist of both The End and Bad Apple.

[I am your boyfriend, so why can’t my power be considered as the power to end the band?]

[And I am openly calling on fans to vote, not cheating to get votes]

[Don't think that my power is not your power, and the power of Guitar Hero is not your power.]

[Other bands don’t necessarily rely solely on their own bands to canvass votes]

[Don’t you know Otsuki Yuyuko? She took away Kikuri’s tickets. Kikuri’s power can’t be considered the power of Otsuki’s band.]

The Otsuki Yuyuko mentioned by Higashino Kanade is a tsundere girl who participated in the unconfirmed Riot2017 with the Ending band. She is both a guitarist and a singer. She is a rock-playing junior who Kikuri knows. She was originally active in Shinjuku FOLT, and followed Kikuri's band after they moved into Fanxing.

There is some hostility towards the Ending Band, but in fact it is pure tsundere. He cares a lot about the Ending Band, but because of this tsundere he forgot to ask for the opinions of other band members and decided to participate in the Unconfirmed Riot2017.

He is a child who cares a lot about the number of fans he has, and he often uses Tokyo Dome as a quantifier to describe the number of fans he has.

But the kid couldn't be arrogant in front of him, because his number of fans is as many as many Tokyo Domes. There's nothing you can do about it, rock and roll are both niche cultures, but comics are slightly more popular than rock, after all, comics can be animated, and rock... well, let's not talk about it, many people still don't understand what rock is, and even stereotype that rock = heavy metal = death heavy metal.

To be honest, he felt quite sorry for Ginjiro. Both bands from Shinjuku FOLT came to his and Xingge's Fanxing. Fortunately, FOLT Shinjuku is an old store and the manager Ginjiro has a good personality. He doesn't care about this matter. Instead, he often goes to Fanxing to watch the Live House and invites Fanxing's bands to perform at Shinjuku FOLT.

Besides, it is impossible for a band to be locked in a live house for the rest of its life, so it is normal for them to leave.

Higashino Kanade's words convinced Goto Ichiri. Ichiri's character was originally very weak, and she agreed with others' words as long as they said them.

It’s a new month, and Izumi Konata’s Vuber life is about to begin. In order to securely enter the top 30 in the online voting, the band has also started to perform more Live House shows and street performances.

Chapter 123 Everyone’s eyes are on me!

The weather in April is neither cold nor hot, which is perfect for street performances.

Looking at the passers-by who stopped to watch, Goto Ichiri took a deep breath. Although it was not her first time to perform on the street, she had performed several times before, but she was still very nervous.

There are so many people, the pressure is so great, what if the performance goes wrong...

The first thought that came to Goto Ichiri's mind was to commit suicide by seppuku at any moment.

She would always think the most pessimistic side of everything, and in the end, she would always commit seppuku to apologize. She was thinking whether she should buy a samurai sword and a kaishaku sword, or modify her guitar and commit seppuku with it, which seemed pretty cool.

In the Starry Bookstore, Higashino Kanade sat by the window, drinking a raw coconut latte and leisurely watching the street performance of the Ending Band across the street outside the window which was about to begin.

The band's street performance ended today not far from the bookstore. Although the flow of people here is not as much as Akihabara or outside the tram station, it is right next to the shopping mall so there is still a lot of people, which is still suitable for street performances.

The bookstore requires a quiet environment, so the performance of the Ending band is kept at a certain distance from the bookstore, so that the customers in the bookstore cannot hear their rock performance. However, Higashino Kanade has superpowers, and he can use his superpowers to hear the music of the Ending band even from a long distance. If he wants, he can even communicate with the four members of the Ending band through the air and say some weird things to tease them during their performance.

"It's really good."

Higashino Kanade saw the band start their performance at the end, and couldn't help laughing as he listened to their new song which was full of energy but had sad lyrics.

His life was becoming more and more comfortable. The suit for this film was completed, and he no longer needed to draw the original painting for "False Hero". After he only had to make the animation, picture books and comics for "Gii Kawa", he had a lot of free time, which made him, who always managed to maintain a leisurely life, feel very peaceful and relaxed.

"What's really good?" Izumi Konaka came to the seat opposite Tono Kanade with a cup of fruit tea and asked casually, "Did you see any revealingly dressed young lady?"

"Why can't it be some scantily clad young man?"

Dongye Zou looked at the fruit tea that Quan Qifang was drinking and said, "Wow, lemonade? Why would anyone drink this? Can something so sour really taste good?"

"It's not impossible."

Quan tried to insert the straw, but it didn't go in. He tried again, but it still didn't go in.

"..."

"..."

Neither Higashino Kanade nor Izumi Konata said anything. They just looked at each other in silence.

"Give me!"

Izumi Konata snatched the straw that Tono Kanade was using.

With a "pop", the straw went in, but the lemonade spilled out.

"hiss……"

Quan Konaka saw the lemonade spilled all over the table, and she became even more annoyed because she couldn't insert the straw.

Why do I feel like everything is going wrong today?

Although the bad things had just begun and it was already afternoon, Koufang felt that he had been unlucky all day.

"Stop hissing and wipe it."

As he spoke, Higashino Kanade took out a tissue from his pocket and pretended to use his superpowers to secretly wipe the table clean.

It is very convenient to use superpowers for cleaning. For example, you only need to wipe the table once. There is no need to wipe the table repeatedly, and it may still be sticky.
