The Creator of the Second Dimension

On the first day of the new year, Xu Rui woke up from the bed, and there were sporadic sounds of firecrackers outside the window. He opened the curtains and saw that Xiaoxue had stopped, and the world outside was covered in silver, and all kinds of frost were competing for freedom.

Walking out of the room, the orange cat at home was still sleeping soundly. Hearing Xu Rui's movement, he only moved the end of his tail to show his understanding.

Next door, Yi Qianqian's room was silent, it seemed that she stayed up late again last night.

In the end, the number of people online at the New Year's Festival was fixed at 12 million at around nine o'clock, which was more than three times the number of people online on weekdays.

In just one night, Hatsune Video Network gained 2 million more registered users, including 120,000 certified users and 500,000 paying users.

Under the trending topics on Weibo, a large number of passers-by said that the production of the New Year's greetings ceremony was very good and sincere, and this barrage website was also quite novel. In addition, others seem to be a bit behind.

Another hot spot is Hatsune Miku.

As soon as this virtual idol appeared, it swept the entire circle of animation lovers in China. Her cute and playful dance and distinctive voice captured a large number of fans.

For the nerds who change wives every season, Hatsune Miku almost satisfies all their fantasies about girls: cute, good at singing and dancing, never getting old, and not being bound by the plot, the most important thing is , able to create her future with her own hands.

After the announcement of Hatsune Miku's official website, the number of visits that night exceeded 5 million, and the downloads of the trial version exceeded 3 million copies. There was even a situation where too many people downloaded the page and the page could not respond, because the trial version did not have any Encryption, so in post bars, forums, and even major portals, there are corresponding diversion download packages available.

Xu Rui glanced at his phone. In the work group, the staff of Hatsune Music Studio sent a screenshot. This is the number of reservations displayed in the background. The regular version of Hatsune Miku has already had more than 100,000 pre-sales, while the advanced version has two. 10,000 pre-sales, this is just one night's data.

In terms of payment rate, this ratio is already very good. Xu Rui never thought that Huaxia would still have so many people willing to buy sound synthesis engines. His original psychological expectation for this first work was only 300,000 copies in total. sales only.

The price of a volume of Huaxia Blu-ray Disc is between 500 and 900 yuan. It can be distinguished from the included special codes and the number of episodes included. Although the prices vary, they are basically not cheap.

The price of the first volume of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" is 648 yuan, which includes three episodes. The bonus is an ordinary postcard, and the premium is not high.

Calculated in this way, the price of buying a complete set of CDs is almost equivalent to buying a premium version of Hatsune Miku, which doesn't seem very expensive.

After Xu Rui made breakfast, Yi Qianqian's door slowly opened. She came out wearing thick cat pajamas, rubbing her eyes.

The fat orange cat moved its ears, and immediately got up from the nest, stretched its body, then kicked to Yi Qianqian's feet in two steps, and rubbed the end of its tail against her trouser legs.

Yi Qianqian squatted down and touched the orange cat's chin. The little fat man immediately collapsed on the ground with his belly turned out. The sound of gurgling was like a tractor starting.

"Come and have breakfast."

Xu Rui greeted him, poured two glasses of milk and sat down.

Yi Qianqian still didn't go back to her hometown this year. If she hadn't been convinced that she had heard her talking on the phone with her family, Xu Rui would have wondered if she had a conflict with her family and ran away.

Turning on the TV and watching the special program for the Spring Festival, the two finished their breakfast tacitly.

After that, the two took out the game console produced by Suoren Company and played a two-player game of cooperative customs clearance.

In addition to making animations, Xu Rui also pays close attention to the development of related industries, such as the game industry.

The console SN launched by Suoren Company has reached the fourth generation SN4. From Xu Rui's experience of playing, it is no different from the previous generation of game consoles on the earth. Moreover, SN4 is still a dual-purpose game console that can be taken out.

The content of the game is varied, mainly traditional role-playing games, gun car ball and other entertainment games, but it may be due to Suoren's own reasons, most of the games are linear plots, and there are few open world games. , Movie-style action-adventure games, commonly known as video games, are even more blank.

Of course, Xu Rui is not completely heartless, but getting involved in the game field requires more capital and contacts, and he can only think about it now.

Although console games are too early, mobile games can make Xu Rui think.

In fact, his previous income was divided into four, one of which was reserved for the mobile game industry.

Xu Rui entrusted an external investigation team to conduct a survey report on Huaxia's current mobile games. The Huaxia mobile game market is relatively lagging behind the console market. It has only gradually emerged with the popularity of smart phones in the past few years. After the first batch of mobile games relying on gravity sensing , touch screen and other methods of mobile games, mobile games such as match 3, marbles, and chess and cards are currently the mainstream.

As for the card-drawing mobile game, although there is currently a rudimentary form of drawing a treasure chest, a game that is close to the mature krypton gold card-drawing mobile game in Xu Rui's memory has not yet appeared.

In fact, at present, the safest way for Xu Rui is to use the IP of "Magic Girl Madoka" to make a card-drawing mobile game, but he has other ideas.

The seven-day holiday on New Year’s Eve passed quickly. After the festival, Xu Rui returned to the company. This year’s tasks are relatively heavy. There are not only the "Boundary on the Horizon" that will be broadcast in July, but also the movie version of "Magic Girl Madoka" that is expected to be released next year. , plus game planning.

But when he first went to work, Xu Rui received a link from Liu Xueyan, which was a video from Chuyin Video.com.

The video screen is a Q version of Hatsune Miku. She is holding a green onion in her hand, shaking and spinning constantly. The background music of the video can be heard as a song with unclear lyrics sung by Hatsune, which seems to be from Northern Europe. The folk song, this song repeats the clip of Hatsune shaking green onions, coupled with an incomprehensible but melody model, it makes people feel very sensual.

"What should come will still come."

Xu Rui sighed, on Earth, the Song of Onions is one of Hatsune Miku's most famous songs, famous for its brainwashing melody and pictures, unexpectedly, in this world, someone would come up with a similar idea.

After looking at the introduction of the video, the author of this song is called Shen Qianxiao. I don’t know if it’s his real name. He said that he made the song with the trial version. Since the sound source of the trial version is not complete, there is no way to make the song he wants. The song, just broke the pot and made a tune with completely unclear lyrics.

But he didn't expect that it was this unintentional move that detonated the entire Chuyin video network. This video was released on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. In just two days, the number of hits had exceeded one million. If it wasn't because today is the new year On the first day of work, Xu Rui probably saw this video yesterday.

Xu Rui, who has experienced the creative tide of Hatsune Miku, understands that building a good relationship with creators is an important part of promoting Hatsune Miku in the future, so he immediately asked Liu Xueyan to contact the original author of this video.
