Tokyo Sound

In the gaming industry, original artists are often a group of outliers, because everyone knows that they are here to work and earn money, but original artists always have illusions. They always intermittently mistakenly believe that they are artists, but in fact, they are all just working on the Internet.

However, the masters who see through this illusion are always calm and composed, no matter they are drawing a cool elf girl with big and curly breasts, a Mediterranean goblin with tongue sticking out, or even depicting the texture of an icon of a pile of poop, their expressions will not change at all, always keeping a poker face as solid as a rock.

A pair of headphones isolates him from the outside world. The figure of the senior original artist huddled in his workstation looks like a monk sitting in a temple. The scribbling with a digital pen is like the beating of a wooden fish, and the occasional emotionless humming is like the chanting of the Great Compassion Mantra.

There is no doubt that Yin Ze is such a master who has entered the way of ruthlessness, so he was able to draw the portrait of Elredo himself and do such a self-defeating thing.

And the better the drawing, the bloodier the self-cutting.

As for what Lang Fanyun said, only when you are at your most passionate, you can be at your most skilled in swordsmanship. It's all fake, it's karma. There's no such thing as a normal office worker, they're just trying to hold on.

The man clicked send, and his eyes regained clarity for a moment, as if his soul had returned to his body.

"Each plan is good, so good that it's hard for me to make a choice!" Takeuchi Takashi praised it over the phone. Although he is the president, he personally participated in the docking process, which also demonstrated his importance to this destiny master and top freelance painter. "Well, after all, I still choose the third one. I like the idea of ​​the ice butterfly staying on the finger. I really look forward to the subsequent draft!"

The man received the feedback, dragged out the C draft, enlarged it, and began to make fine drafts and lay the base color, while at the same time his eyes lost their highlights, as if his soul was projected by a star.

Several hours passed like this.

After the man had organized, saved and sent the images, he held his waist, and stood by the window to get some fresh air, his face pale as if he had survived drowning.

From PNG-format portrait illustrations, to fully broken card faces, to sideways paper figures in the battle interface, to matching event costume illustrations, almost everything is covered by us.

Is it high quality?

High and hard!

Is it grand enough?

Enough, just like the textbook-like atmosphere of the music party A’s favorite string music!

Even Master Yin himself had a kind of indifference: I draw really well.

But what followed was pain, so much pain.

Am I going to kill myself? Is this the test that all my partners in justice will face?

Soon, President Takeuchi's reply arrived, saying that it was approved and there was no problem, and the royalties would be transferred to the account as soon as possible.

Fireworks are seen as soon as the server is opened. It's so sad. It's not a matter of money. If I had money, I wouldn't be myself.

Yin Ze turned on his phone.

"Car mechanic: I just got this as a newbie, can you guys help me see if it works?"

"Pure Moon Man: What a skill. This card is called Arjuna. It is very powerful. I suggest you invest all your resources to max it out."

"Auto Mechanic: Are you mentally balanced?"

"Pure Moon Man: You and I are brothers. I am so happy that you produce good products. How can I be jealous?"

"Mechanic: How about this one called 'Attila'?"

"Pure Moon Man: It's useless, it takes up space. I suggest you practice Arjuna first."

"Auto Mechanic: I'd better train those low-star Berserkers first. They consume less materials and do quite a bit of damage."

"Pure Moon Man: How dare you!"

"Auto Mechanic: Where are the experts? I need advice from a real expert."

"Pure Moon Man: Maybe he's still working on it. You know, he's a top-notch animal after all."

Alas, Yin Ze shook his head in boredom. You will never understand my sadness, just like the day does not understand the darkness of the night.

"Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Philosopher's Stone: How to beat this dragon? Screenshot.Jpg"

"Minotaur Chieftain: It's time for the low-star assassins to show their skills. If all else fails, I'll just borrow your Hercules."

"T. Rex and the Philosopher's Stone: But the only thing on your list is Spartacus."

"Tauren Chieftain: Oh, I'll change it right away."

Yin Ze's mood had just started to improve, but he was hit hard by the official FGO account push.

"【Official】Fate/Grand [email protected]: Congratulations on reaching 60 followers! Starting today, 10 Saint Quartz will be distributed to players on the server. And the first collaboration and the first event will also be unveiled?! The king warrior from the snowy land will lend a helping hand to all the masters! The live broadcast will provide detailed information one by one, please give me your advice!"

"Okay, okay, there's new content so soon, keep on shaking the pot."

"I was wondering why the Great Master, the Holy Master, disappeared after broadcasting for a day. It turns out he was waiting here."

“Is this an external collaboration?”

"Shit, Shinji is not going to become a Heroic Spirit, is he? His job is Driver, so don't do that."

"King Warrior (meaningful)"

Yin Ze was speechless.

President Takeuchi was still enthusiastically praising the draft a few hours ago, and it was just handed in, how could it be so fast?!

But it's not impossible. For a game like FGO that requires Live2D technology, once the necessary materials are determined, the programmers start working very quickly. It can only be said that it was planned in advance... Oh no, there was an update plan in place in advance.

After all, the date for the live broadcast has been chosen.

ding ding-

This is my agent knocking on Line. When I looked at the content, it was a screenshot of FGO's tweet.

"Tauren Chieftain: The only way you get notifications is by watching other people push their accounts. What's the point of you!"

"It's hard to settle the human heart:?"

The agent, who was called inexplicably, was a little confused, but after all, he had amazing wisdom about dragons and figured out the whole thing in a few seconds. His confused expression turned into a sly grin, which was similar to the grin of Xiao Hei on the Conan set.

Ding ding ding ding——

The agent began to read the screenshot of the tweet over and over again, and even sent it to the small group of the Kashiwai family who love each other.

"..."Yin Ze.

"Weight Loss Day 1: Although I don't play games, I will still support my seniors."

"Car mechanic: Master, can you feed Arjuna?"

"Pure Moon Man: How dare you! What do you want to do!"

"Auto Mechanic: Nobunaga?! Why are you in this group? This is the group of our Kashiwai direct descendants."

"It is difficult to settle a matter. Good birds choose trees to roost in. Shimazaki Nobunaga is a man of extraordinary talent. He also has a noble friendship with you. Who knows, he may turn from evil to good someday. I am just lubricating him in advance."

"Pure Moon Man: Yes, as the saying goes, a good minister chooses his master and then slays him. For an artist, changing his job or changing his nationality is a very normal thing. I am just here to look for someone first."

"It's hard to settle the human heart:?"

"Auto Mechanic: Kashiwa-san, he joined the group with ulterior motives, kick him out now."

"Weight Loss Day 1: Hey, aren't senior and Shimazaki Nobunaga-san good brothers?"

"It's hard to settle people's minds: Haha, on the surface they say they are close friends, but in reality they are not familiar at all."

"Pure Moon Man: Open the door!"

As the saying goes, I would rather learn from the incense burner in Wagang than from the wine and meat love in Xinsu.

Yin Ze is in a very good state right now. He has no interest in intrigues. He just blows the cold wind alone.

……

A few days later, the man fulfilled his duties as the main actor and came to the live broadcast site as promised. This live broadcast will be broadcast on Station N. The layout of the site is OK. The green screen has been set up, and there are microphones, peripherals, and bottled water that have been torn off the packaging on the long table.

Yin Ze walked back and forth a few times with his hands behind his back, then sighed slightly.

"Is there something wrong?" the big staff couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay, I just suddenly thought of a guy named Moriki Hiroshi. I originally thought that he was just a show-off and his gold medal was not worth much, but after seeing him more often, I realized how extraordinary he is." Yin Ze sighed.

If it was Producer Mori, the set decoration here would definitely be of a higher grade, and there would definitely be delicious snacks and drinks next to the bottled water. If you think about it carefully, in the broadcasting industry, the first battle pass, which comes with champagne and a motorcycle, is the only one of its kind. The ambition and style are commendable.

The more you experience, the more you love to reminisce.

"It's worth my while to hear these words." A deep voice sounded behind him.

Yin Ze's expression froze.

In fact, there are two kinds of memories. One is the love for the old times that cannot be let go, and the other is simply recalling the bitter and thinking of the sweet. Reflecting on the bitter is just to cherish the sweet, it does not mean really missing the pain. Just like a social animal who has worked hard to become a small leader will definitely recall the past, but if you ask him to really go through it again, he will definitely glare at you and say angrily, "Is this human talk?"

However, the gold medal producers would definitely not be able to understand these.

"I was just saying it casually, why are you really here?" Yin Ze turned around and forced a business-like smile.

"Well, what is revealed unintentionally is often the truth." Moriki Hiroshi said happily.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Sir, are you here empty-handed?" Yin Ze greeted.

"Of course not, this is the hot coffee I just bought from the vending machine over there." Moriki Hiroshi handed over a can.

He was dismissed just like that. What a stingy man. Don’t learn from him. Don’t learn from him.

"I heard that you often give this type of drink to others, so it should be your favorite flavor." Moriki Hiroshi followed up with the attack without any delay.

"That's absolutely true." Yin Ze smiled.

"Alas, you are getting better and better now. I really miss the days when we were striving for the top spot in Silver Spring together. I can no longer easily stand behind your big stage." Moriki Hiroshi's words clearly showed his love for the old times. His tone was sincere. "Before, I was a little radical, but now, as long as you are happy, it's OK."

“Senmu-san…” Yin Ze couldn’t help but be moved. The two of them held hands tightly and waved them up and down.

"I also did some middleman work for this collaboration. Although it was hard work, it was worth it. Let the fans like me listen to the new version of Elredo's chant." Moriki Hiroshi said firmly.

"Senmu-san..." Yin Ze couldn't help but shed tears and wanted to pull his hand back, but the other party was too strong and he couldn't.

Chapter 218: Pure Love God of War

On an ordinary afternoon, FGO's first live broadcast event began.

Netizens who had been waiting for a long time secretly opened the website at home, in the dormitory, or even at their workstations.

Type-Moon's main poster girl, the blond and blue-eyed Ailanthus, stood in the center of the screen. Amid the busy preparations, a short piece of theme music played step by step, and then finally switched to real-time images.

Three people were sitting at a long table, with a green screen behind them that looked like blue sky and white clouds with the logo on it.

"Can everyone see this? Can we send comments?" The first person to speak was Risa Taneda. She waved her hands lightly and showed an infectious and gentle smile. "Wow, this is so enthusiastic. It's filling up the entire screen. I can't keep up."

"They are all very energetic." said the host.

"Why don't you say something?" Risa Taneda gestured to someone on her left to say hello.

"Okay, hello." Someone took a while to move, showing a gentle smile that showed a sense of business, "Too enthusiastic, the screen is completely occupied, I can't see it all."

"This program is a special online live event that delivers information about Typemoon's latest game, Fate/Grand Order. I'm the host, Yoshino Yoshino, and it's nice to meet you all." The young man, who spoke very quickly and eloquently, introduced.

"I'm Risa Taneda!"

"I'm Takizawa Satoru..." Someone couldn't help but look at the host a few more times. If his memory served him right, it was this guy who had encouraged him to try out the game at a game meeting for the Pitch-Black series. What happened next pushed the atmosphere of the meeting to the peak of a successful rocket launch.

"Your attire seems to have a special meaning." Yoshino Yoshiki shifted the focus of the conversation to the guests.

"Yes, this is the Chaldea uniform, made by the staff." Risa Taneda said, slightly opening her arms to show the short white work clothes with a red belt tied on the chest.

"The workmanship is very good. Will it be made into peripheral products for sale?"

"Of course. In addition, there is a special easter egg under this coat." After saying this, Risa Taneda patted someone on the shoulder, as if she was throwing a Pokémon to release a skill.

"Under the coat, he is a partner of justice." Yin Ze was not vague. He opened the collar of the Master's uniform like Clark Kent, revealing the familiar white body and navy blue sleeves of Shirou's single coat.

The comments were full of praise for the purity of the Moon Man, and they said they must buy it.

"It's been about half a month since the game was launched, and it has already exceeded 200 million downloads. As expected of the Fate series, the number of players is increasing at an astonishing rate." Yoshino Yoshiki said, "By the way, the pre-order event before the live broadcast has already reached 2 people. Including precious Saint Quartz, it will be distributed to everyone along with QP, Golden Apple and other props."

"The benefits are indeed very good. I'm really worried about what will happen if we can't get used to the frugality in the future." Risa Taneda said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter. There will always be some problems with the server, and we will give compensation during maintenance." Yin Ze said with the experience of an old gamer.

"Senior, what nonsense are you talking about?" Risa Taneda scolded in public using the voice of the character.

"Well, first of all, let me introduce FGO and Fate series. I'm sure I can't do it, so of course it has to be explained by a professional. So I'll have to leave it to you, Master." said Yoshino Yoshiki.

"Well, to put it simply, Fate changed my life. It was because of it that I decided to become a voice actor—" Yin Ze said the heavyweight words in a deep voice.

"That's how it is!" Yoshino Shonori was shocked after being easily deceived. "Isn't this the realization of a dream?"

"Admittedly, although there are many beautiful girls in the two-dimensional world, and I have occasionally fallen in love with others, but in the final analysis, Altria is indeed my white moonlight, a beautiful existence that can be promoted alone for another ten years!" Yin Ze slammed his fist on the table.

"It's a very warm gift. It seems that you are the first player on the server to reach the maximum level of Saber? This is incredible." Yoshino Yoshinori said seriously.

"This is what I should do." Yin Ze lowered his head in pretentiousness, hiding the strong ambition on his face.
