Chapter 385: The World of Swords and Swords
On New Year's Day, Wang Ming couldn't rest.
With 24 comic storyboards and one comic sketch created, he couldn't lift his head because he was too busy with these tasks. Every day, except for class time, I was drawing, and I didn't even have time to eat and go to the toilet. Fortunately, these cartoonists brought back by Fujian and Naoko were not newcomers, and it didn't take long for them to understand the comics they were responsible for. After Wang Ming did his best for a month, even if the storyboard became simpler and simpler, they were able to restore the plot completely, which reduced a lot of burden for him.
Wang Ming, who has been busy with creation, can't take care of the company for the time being, but the company has a good momentum of development under the cooperation of Zhou Haomiao and Dongfang Ming. Zhou Haomiao is indeed a powerful person, after three months of exercise, his behavior and speech have become more and more stylish, and he has made great progress in dealing with emergencies, and even his strategic vision has been praised by many professional managers.
"It's been three days since the joint event of "Sword and Sorcery" and "Sword Art Online" started, why don't you go and play it?"
"Don't go, I'm very confident in Boss Gu of Dragon Fantasy Technology, and I am very confident in my animation. ”
At the beginning of the animation production, the two parties set the process for the next cooperation. Basically, a hundred-storey giant tower rises in the main city of sword and magic, which belongs to a special area, and the level of all players is zero here, and you need to kill monsters here to upgrade. There is only one lord on each floor, and players can challenge the boss layer by layer, but once the boss is killed, it will not be refreshed, each boss will produce a unique piece of equipment, and each boss killed will engrave the player's name on the wall of honor......
The appearance of this tower has attracted many new players, and it has also aroused the enthusiasm of many players who have launched the task of playing gold in addition to PK.
On the day the new map was opened, the server was under tremendous pressure, and Gu Jianyong, who monitored the data in the background, immediately made a decision to open all server groups and start a standby server group in case of emergency.
This game is not only popular in China, but also has a large market share abroad, as soon as the news of the linkage activities and animations came out, it caused a lot of fluctuations, coupled with the terrifying popularity brought by the previous popular "EVA", "Sword Art Online" is equivalent to not spending a penny, and it is an unexpected joy to open the market abroad.
Dragon Fantasy Technology has made a lot of efforts to hold this event smoothly, and even most of the advertising fees are paid by them to show absolute sincerity. With strong financial resources and Qingbai's reputation, "Sword Art Online" has become the most anticipated winter new episode in 2024 as rated by the media. Moreover, Dragon Fantasy Technology has invested heavily in the game this time, buying a large number of copyrights in the game and implanting a video system. From now on, players can watch videos while fighting monsters in the game, making the boring monster killing upgrades fun.
As the online rate increases, turnover and advertising expenses naturally rise. Only two days have passed since the event, and most of the costs have been earned, and these gratifying results have made Dragon Fantasy Technology happy.
In the noon news on New Year's Day, the host made a 30-second simple interview with Wang Ming, which made this name completely famous in thousands of households, and he finally completely washed away the names such as "Death Cartoonist" that he once carried, and became the "Gray Stream Successor" and "Ghost Talent Producer".
Of course, Wang Ming knows in his heart that these titles are not because of works such as "Eva" and "Fate Zero", but the influence of "Slam Dunk".
In the twenty-seventh episode, Mitsui knelt in front of Coach Anzai, and the sobbing sentence "Coach, I want to play basketball" affected many students and parents, and the slam dunk master and Qingbai Fengfeng were completely reversed after this scene, and when Zhang Heng, who had watched this episode, called Wang Ming, Wang Ming could even hear a faint sobbing sound on the other side.
He is now like a chariot, and with the addition of one work after another, he has grown to the point of being unstoppable. The eyes of the audience and the media are focused on him, wanting to see how many miracles he can bring in the future.
"Sword Art Online" is just in anticipation and has begun.
At the beginning of the animation, a game released in 2022 was introduced, "sort art online", where the male protagonist turned the book and was cut off by the pages of the book, showing that the protagonist is a weak and powerless person.
Many viewers complained after seeing this scene.
"This person shouldn't be Teacher Qingbai!You see, Teacher Qingbai debuted in 2022, and on November 6 of that year, it happened to be the plot of "Madoka Magical Girl" entering **...... So this date should indicate the rise of Teacher Qingbai!"
"Damn, upstairs is really good, you can think of so much with just one date, it's a pity not to be a screenwriter. ”
"Don't talk, watch the animation!"
Seeing the boy lying on the bed, putting on a helmet, and plugging in the network cable, netizens began to complain again.
"Teacher Qingbai is not rigorous at all, this is different from the VR equipment we usually use. ”
"The age of saying this is definitely not more than 18 years old! This helmet device is the top equipment of the original holographic era, although the highest fidelity is only 40%, but it is also the memory of the people of that era, you new generations who have been connected to VR chips since childhood, will not understand at all. ”
"That's true! Teacher Qingbai has simplified the link mode a lot, otherwise the line connection alone can make the young people now! Haha. ”
At the beginning of the game, it is a long shot, and the plot officially begins in the player's call for "picture quality explosion".
At this time, most of the players in the world of "Sword and Sorcery" are also watching this animation, but the first episode of the story and the name of the work make many players feel uncomfortable.
In the world of "Sword and Sorcery", swordsmanship and magic coexist, and there are swordsmen, thieves, mages and other professions in terms of refinement, and then with the change of classes again and again, they will become archers, swordsmen, astrologers and other professions due to factors such as race and bonus points. "Sword Art Online" only describes knives and swords, which is equivalent to setting up an enemy for itself that is equal to half of the players on the server, so many players of the mage profession are complaining.
"Teacher Qingbai is eighteen this year, right? Is it that after being a ** teacher for eighteen years, I feel uncomfortable and want to create a world without a mage?"
"That's right, a single dog only deserves to rub a fireball. ”
"Qingbai: Oh no, my unicorn arm is about to have a seizure. ”
Their complaints about Wang Ming were taken seriously, but Wang Ming considered the issue of changing the work, and even referred to the settings in the game "Sword and Magic...... But in the end he gave up. If it is really changed like this, after the work has changed greatly, why is it still called "Sword Art Online", it is better to change the name to "World of Warcraft".
