The content drawn on scratch paper was taken out at this time.

This is the content that Mori Xia made to make it easier for him to remember the idea of another world line.

And now, it's time for this draft book to come into play.

Drawn on paper, is a character.

A completely different style from the current works.

Cute eyes, green double ponytails, and cute costumes, every place shows the cuteness of this girl.

It's a pity that the character drawn in the sketchbook is an early work of Mori Xia, and the style is still a little immature.

But it is undeniable that this girl with a green double ponytail is a very eye-catching girl.

"It's ......"

Qianjia and Lihua both tilted their heads, and their eyes looked at what Senxia was showing here.

"This character is called 'Hatsune Miku' - he's an idol!"

Sen Xia said.

"Anime idols, two-dimensional idols, no, it should be...... Virtual idols?"

When talking about "virtual idols", Qianjia's eyes suddenly lit up. She probably understood what Senxia was trying to do.

"Hey, that's pretty much the concept, this character is a virtual idol - Hatsune Miku. Senxia said.

Yes.

If you want to do a big project, of course, you have to do a promising one.

And what kind of project is promising?

The answer is a lot.

If you focus solely on the animation and game industry, there are countless of them.

But if you exclude works that are not suitable for this era, and then remove some content that is not enough in your impression, it will be obvious what you can do at this time.

The answer is the one in front of you: Virtual Idol Hatsune Miku.

If you talk about virtual idols, there are probably a lot.

The futuristic LoveLive combination is one of the most classic.

But if you want to talk about the pioneers of virtual idols, "Hatsune Miku" is definitely the most important component of it.

There were also virtual idols before Hatsune Miku, and there were also virtual idols after Hatsune Miku.

But whether it was before or after, all those who were discussing virtual idols would not remember before and after, but would think of this "Hatsune" as a benchmark.

From the beginning of its inception to 10 years later and 15 years later, "Hatsune Miku" has been the most famous of the virtual idols, and it is also the one that has endured.

"Are you going to make an animated drama and then bring out this virtual idol?" said Qianjia.

"No, Hatsune, we don't animate. Senxia said.

“...... Don't do it?"

Qianjia looked at Sen Xia, and she seemed very surprised by Sen Xia's opinion.

Qianjia's eyes looked at Senxia here curiously, as if she was ready to wait for Senxia to continue.

But Mori Xia didn't speak immediately, instead, he first gathered his thoughts before saying, "Hatsune Miku won't have anime - at least not for ten years." This is an established matter. ”

Sen Xia turned his head to look at his senior sister: "'Hatsune' should not be bound by a single drama, such Hatsune can have a real 'future'." ”

Animation has the benefits of animation, but animation also has the disadvantages of animation.

Senxia knows this.

After Qianjia finished speaking, she immediately understood.

If this virtual idol has its own animated drama, it means that this character already has its own story.

Stories do make it easy to build characters.

— but sometimes, it's also disadvantageous.

The purpose of the story is ultimately to sell characters.

Maybe many people have a good impression of a certain character, but this person may have forgotten the original book; Maybe many people like the heroine's character, but he may not be half interested in the whole story; of course, there are also people who simply like stories.

But in any case, it is undeniable that the "role" itself is very important.

A story that doesn't pay attention to the characters may be wonderful for a while, but there is no place for such a story to expand.

On the contrary, if the characters are well shaped, then things are different. In another worldline, the story of the 06 version of FATE is not good, but this anime portrays a young girl named Saber Artoria.

Some people may not know the FATE series, but when they see this "Saber", they can understand it.

"Dull Hair King" can be said to be a very important part of the entire pan-two-dimensional space.

But as for the story?

Knowing the role of "Dumb Hair King", I'm afraid that nine out of ten can't say what the other party has experienced in the story, and among the remaining characters, it is rare to be able to quickly say when "My King" bought a lion doll and when he made up for the demon with Shirou...... Okay, the content is a bit harsh, but there's no denying that the characters are the soul of the story.

Stories are in the service of the characters.

It's easy to lose sight of the story of not being able to create an impressive character.

These characters may be gentle, perhaps mad, perhaps irritable, or loving, but these characters must be impressive.

Just like Kurumi Tokizaki, many people may not know the so-called "dating battle", but the crazy Kurumi, many people can say a few words even if they follow the trend.

"It's interesting, but what are you going to do without a story? If you don't have a story to create a character, what about the personality of the character?"

Qianjia knows what Senxia means, but Qianjia also wants to know how Senxia faces these remaining problems.

The role is very important, but what Qianjia said does have an impact on the shaping of the entire character.

"Well, I'm just trying to keep the audience from having too much clarity about the character. As the so-called seeing flowers in the fog, this is the effect I want. ”

After hearing Senxia's words, Qianjia also fell into deep thought.

"There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand people, so in that case, don't you define 'Hamlet' in the first place?"

"Exactly. ”

Hatsune Miku can indeed be an idol, but Hatsune Miku is not an ordinary idol.

"But what exactly do we do, if you don't animate, how do you develop the characteristics of this character, and the popularity?"

The amplification effect of animations is very powerful.

If there is an anime, it is very easy for Hatsune Miku to become popular.

But without animation, it's a little harder to get people to like the character.

"I don't know if Senior Sister still remembers the video of the running group we did before?"

"Ah, that kind of thing, actually, in a sense, it's something like a galgame-like live, or something like a dynamic audio comic. Qianjia nodded, indicating that she could understand.

"yes, after we're done, didn't we have people dub it, and then go through the electronic processing?"

Hearing Senxia's words, Qianjia immediately thought of what Senxia had said at that time - Senxia at that time, in fact, wanted to take the mechanical dubbing of electronic software, and now Qianjia also thought of Senxia's complaint that day.

"What if we were to use Hatsune Miku as a 'reader' and a 'singer'? What we need is for these audiences to be able to create with 'Hatsune Miku'. ”

Yes, that's Senxia's goal.

Hatsune Miku's Japanese word is "Hatsune ミク", which is pronounced "Hatsune_Miku", which means "Hasu Silver Rice Library".

In the other world line, Hatsune Miku was developed seven years later, in 2007, by Yamaha.

Hatsune Miku was not a pure idol in the beginning. To be precise, at that time, Hatsune Miku was a library of audio sources developed based on Yamaha's VOCALOID series of speech synthesis programs, and this source data was sampled by voice actor Saki Fujita.

"Hatsune" means "first sound" and also refers to "the first VOCALOID2", while "future" refers to "the possibility of future music as symbolized by VOCALOID".

This is the grand occasion of Hatsune.

Hatsune Miku was released in August, but by December, it had more than 1,000 original songs. Among them, there are even many works that are the collaboration of anonymous netizens on the Internet, some compose, arrange, some compose, some are responsible for painting, and some are making videos.

In just one year, Hatsune Miku has changed from a simple music source to a real "virtual idol".

"Do we have so many creators?" muttered Qianjia.

"Well, that's a little subtle. Sen Xia muttered, "If we delay it for three years, I think our success rate should be 70%, if it is delayed for 5 years, I think the chance of winning is 90%, but now, I think the probability of success is only about 4 to 50%. ”

Because the network is not developed!

Senxia sighed a little.

Because the network is not developed, whether "Hatsune Miku" can survive is actually a somewhat delicate matter.

But the reason why Senxia is confident is that the Internet development speed of this world line is faster than that of another world line.

Speaking of which, the development of the mud bombardment network is so rapid, it's not because of Senxia, well, to some extent, it's no problem to say that it's Senxia's pot.

The development of the Internet, ostensibly, is because Mud Bombardment has seen the development of the Internet in Papa's Country, oh, that is, the Lighthouse Country. The relationship between the faster development of the Internet on the side of the lighthouse country is because of the increase in the growth rate of netizens in the lighthouse country, and the popular "Hero's Track" has swept Europe and the United States.

Many Internet solution providers, after seeing the popularity of "Hero's Track", have this work to promote, let everyone install the Internet, and the development of the network, in turn, makes the game more popular, under the stimulation of this cycle, the number of broadband users in the lighthouse country is really surging.

After Mud Bombard found out that his father's country had started a new round of change, they also learned from the pain and began to learn from their father to further increase investment.

Therefore, the speed of the development of the mud bombing network is showing a surprise growth model.

It's like now.

And it is the acceleration of the development of the network that gives Mori Xia the confidence to make Hatsune Miku.

Hatsune may not be able to develop in a full Internet environment, but Hatsune can develop with the Internet.

But Senxia didn't dare to blindly support the big, but conservatively estimated the success rate on his side.

Four to fifty percent.

This is Senxia's judgment.

"I'm going to work with Yamaha, and if I can, acquire some shares over there, or do a share swap, which is also acceptable. ”

"Well, indeed, with this money, it is also a good choice to buy some clubs. It is also acceptable to make a partial acquisition of a club like Yamaha. ”

Yamaha is a long-established company born in the last century, that is, in the park in 1887, this company was founded in Hamamatsu, which is a muddy company, and its products include keyboard instruments such as pianos, electronic organs, and synthesizers, wind instruments such as brass and woodwinds, string instruments such as violin and cello, and all percussion instruments, up to the highest level of professional audio equipment.

In addition, Yamaha is a comprehensive international group that handles a wide range of products, including music popularization, networking products, sporting goods, kitchen and bathroom products, engines, and mounters.

- By the way, Tokuma Shoten was also this kind of group before the 90s, but Tokuma Shoten didn't do anything, and in the end there was nothing left, and Yamaha here lived a very happy life.

Four years later, in 2004, Yamaha developed the first generation of VOCALOID, the core engine of speech synthesis software for electronic music production.

Although Hatsune Miku was born seven years later, the core part of Hatsune Miku was born in 04 years.

"But even if there are 10 billion, I'm afraid for Yamaha, I'm afraid it won't necessarily make them tempted, right?"

Qianjia asked a key question.

There's a lot of money here.

But sometimes people have more money.

"It's okay, we can work together. ”

There are many ways to do it after that, but there are only a few ways to develop Hatsune Miku now.

Cooperating with Yamaha is one of the better ways that Senxia came up with - after all, Senxia doesn't have the same precipitation as other established companies.

In many cases, the experience of the old enterprise itself is the greatest wealth, and Senxia sometimes does not have this kind of precious thing, so Senxia has to rely on each other in many cases.

However, of course, this does not mean that Senxia's side can only be led by the nose by the other party.

On the contrary, at this time, pulling each other into the water can also share the risk.

However, the current Senxia does not plan to expand on this topic.

Because the more important relationship is Hatsune Miku itself.

Qianjia also thinks so.

"If nothing else, since you said you wouldn't do animation before, and now you're talking about working with Yamaha, do you want to start with music?" asked Chika.

If there is a mistake in the previous chapter, just download it again on the mobile phone.

Dian Niang has no way to convulsion, sad story......

By the way, on a certain website, Hatsune really has a lot of MMDs, especially those in various 18X categories......
