070. Victory and defeat are common in soldiers

After the annual meeting, Hawke ushered in a month-long relaxing time.

"At the beginning of August, you need to attend the launch conference of the second season of "Star Girl", and after two weeks, you will join the group and shoot until the end of September. Fang Zheng looked at Hawke's schedule and said, "There is a concert in Menglong at the beginning of October, followed by your birthday fan meeting. ”

Referring to the fan meeting, Hawke interrupted Fang Zheng's words and asked, "Have the specific arrangements for the birthday party been decided?"

"I'm still talking to Di Le, the venue is set in Shangjing, and it is likely to be a personal meeting. Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Thanks to your two teammates, but if you want to invite teammates, it's fine." ”

Fang Zheng mentioned Jing Weiran and Fu Bowen, whose birthdays last month were both in their personal names.

Since there are already people in Menglong who have taken the lead in doing this, there is no problem for Hawke to hold a personal meeting.

"There was already a concert in early October, so I won't invite them to perform live on this birthday, just record a blessing video. Hawke said, "Whether you invite the team or all your teammates, it will cause a storm on the fans' side." ”

Fang Zheng also agreed with Hawke's decision, and then continued to discuss the future itinerary with Hawke.

"We've already negotiated a record appointment with the Emperor of Music, and someone will be sent over there to sign it in the afternoon. ”

Century Entertainment's focus is on film and television, not the music industry, and considering Hawke's creative talent, the company has conventionally signed records to music companies that have been working with it.

The sound emperor has been established for more than 30 years, which is a little longer than the time of the century, and there are countless excellent singers under it.

The matter of the contract sharing is left to the professionals, and in short, both parties are satisfied with the final terms.

"The Emperor of Music is going to take the opportunity of your nineteenth birthday party to release a record. ”

"A single or an album?" Hawk asked, "a single is fine, but if it's an album, I probably won't have enough time to write that many songs in such a short time." ”

The singer's album is different from that of idols, and there are no ten songs that are embarrassed to be released.

If you want to release an album, there must be a few tunes from the music library, and Hawke, as a newcomer, obviously will not come up with the highest quality works.

Rather than releasing an album with mixed levels, it is better to release a single.

"Single. Sure enough, Fang Zheng thought the same as Hawke, "Considering that you still have the identity of the Menglong men's group, it is safer to release a single." ”

Hawke nodded and said, "There aren't many announcements this month, I'll write a few more tunes and send them over, and then let them pick one." ”

The sound emperor must have a stronger understanding of the market than Hawke, so let them choose the safest way.

"It's still a long time, as long as you record the song before you join the group in August. ”

After the two of them discussed for a while, Fang Zheng closed the notebook and said, "That's basically it, do you have anything else to do in the afternoon? If not, you can go back first, and you don't need to stay in the company anymore." ”

"Well, my dad came to Shanghai to see me and get together with him in the afternoon. ”

......

A private room at a Beijing restaurant in Shangbei District.

"Eat more, I haven't seen it in a few months, and it looks like I've lost weight. Huo Dad pointed to the Shangjing roast duck in front of him and said.

Under the influence of Huo's mother, Huo Ke eats roast duck not with Beijing sauce, but with hot sauce.

"The company has requirements for body weight management, and you can't eat too much greasy food. After eating two cakes, Hawke wiped his hands and switched to broccoli and fish.

"Why have you been in Shanghai lately? Haven't you been doing business in Canton all this time?" asked Hawke.

"The main thing is to come and see you. After taking a sip of beer, Huo Dad said, "Recently, the seafood market has been sluggish, and there is a problem on the North Peninsula side of Sakura, and the hoarding of goods in the South Peninsula of China is unbearable, so I simply took a break." ”

Hawke lowered his head to eat, and then Huo's father suddenly said: "I watched your variety show, that little girl is very good." ”

Uh, how do you feel that this should be said by Huo Ma.

As a result, Huo Guobang continued: "You rowed there, in order to let other people's little girls win, the action is too obvious, and you will have to practice in the future." ”

Well, this is the correct style of painting, if people like Huo Guobang, who have worked hard in the business for so many years, can't see it, the Hawke family doesn't know where they live now.

"I came to you today for another thing, so I'll tell you about the game you made. Huo Dad's tone was a little hesitant when he said this.

Fairy Sword II, no, it should be called "Seeking Immortals and Demon Sword".

At that time, after Chen Tao, the boss of the game company, helped Hawke connect with his personal studio, Hawke had limited communication with the technicians, and the last call was in mid-April.

The start-ups over there were very fast, and they were all done in early May, and then they were jointly issued in early June from a company registered on Huo Dad's side.

In the past few months, Hawke has been busy with his feet and has not had time to pay attention.

However, looking at Huo Dad's cautious appearance, the situation is not good.

With this mental preparation, Hawke motioned for him to continue.

"Counting this week's sales, it has just paid off. Huo Dad was afraid that Hawke would be unhappy and added, "However, the rating on Starry Sky is not bad, and players feel that some of the concept elements in it are quite novel." ”

Sales were worse than Hawker expected, and it was a little regrettable.

"It was originally a test of the waters, and I played with the finished product, and there is still a gap between it and the imagination. Hawke said to himself, "The graphics are okay, but the soundtrack is not." ”

Of course, Daddy Hawke knew that this was Hawke unconsciously making excuses for himself.

He sandwiched a slice of fish to Hawke and asked, "How is it, do you want to do it in the future?"

Hawke opened his mouth to say "must", but Huo Guobang's meaning didn't seem to support it.

"What do you mean by Dad?"

"You were sloppy at the time, thinking that you were trying it for the first time and didn't want to discourage you. Huo Dad said, "I have worked hard in the mall for so many years, although I don't earn much, but I still have experience, and you didn't discuss it with me at that time." ”

As soon as he said this, Hawke reacted, yes, there is a professional around him, and he is the kind who will help him selflessly.

As a result, he completely ignored it and went to find Chen Tao in a hurry.

Now that I think about it, it's still the reason for crossing over, and I didn't integrate into my identity well.

Seeing Hawke's confused face, Daddy Huo asked, "Why do you want to make a game?"

How can you play Li Xiaoyao if you don't make Fairy Jianyi?

How can you play Yuntianhe without making Fairy Sword Four?

Hawk told Huo Dad about his own logic at that time, and then Huo Dad gave him a kind smile.

Lowering his head a little embarrassed, Hawke heard his dad say: "The game industry is too professional, and it is not enough for you to only provide the storyline and basic setting, to put it bluntly, you have a specialization in the art industry." ”

Huo Dad said in a deep voice: "What is your biggest advantage?"

Uh, that doesn't count.

was interrupted by this thought, Huo Dad himself said: "You are a star and a public figure, these are your biggest reliance." ”

"Don't you still have a few stories that you want to make into a game, but it's not necessary at all. Dad Huo gave him another chopstick dish and said, "You just write down these stories, whether it's a scarf or a book, and use your star status to publicize." ”

"If you have a fan meeting on your birthday, you take the opportunity to promote your book, and naturally fans will pay for it, and they will help you get attention. ”

"But in this case, the character image is not as vivid as in the game, and when it comes to this character, people can't think of me. Hawke is still struggling with the matter of designing Li Xiaoyao according to his own image.

"It's simple, just add more illustrations. Huo Dad immediately responded, "The structure of the story, the wording, and the illustrations are not worried about finding a professional to help you with your current connections." ”

Listening to Huo Dad say this, it seems that this is really the case.

"I don't know much about the entertainment industry, but we can still help you with other things, if you have any ideas to tell us, don't do it alone. ”

Huo Dad finally said seriously: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, young man, please start over." ”
