A 17-year-old unemployed teenager in Japan has now been arrested after lying that he wanted to transfer tickets to a concert of popular anime singer LiSA, and defrauded a large amount of cash from an otaku. He committed a total of 60 crimes from last summer to this month (July), with a total amount of 1.2 million yen (about 60,400 yuan) in fraud.

The arrested suspect is a 17-year-old unemployed teenager living in Yokohama, Japan, who told two 24-year-old unemployed men living in Tokyo's Adachi Ward on Twitter that he wanted to transfer 4 tickets for LiSA concerts, and successfully defrauded 24,000 yen (about 1,207.2 yuan) in cash. After being arrested, the suspect confessed to the crime and confessed that he had spent the proceeds of the fraud on the concerts of other singers.

LiSA, formerly known as Risa Oribe, is attracting attention for her vocals in popular anime theme songs and her charismatic rock music and vocals. She has sung songs such as "ThousandEnemies" and "Ichiban Treasure" under the name of the character singer "Yui" in the TV anime "AngelBeats", which is very popular. In addition, he has also sung the OP of popular anime "Fate/Zero", "Sword Art Online", "Inferior Students of Magic High School", and "Pseudo-Love" Season 2.

"Monster Child" mobilized 1.98 million viewers in 16 days

After "Son of the Wolf, Rain and Snow", the latest theatrical version of the anime "Monster Child" brought by Mamoru Hosoda for the first time in three years will be officially released in Japan on July 11. According to the latest numbers released yesterday (July 27), the number of moviegoers mobilized for 16 days of the film's release was about 1.98 million.

This number was announced yesterday by President Yoshio Okubo at a regular president meeting on Nippon TV. At the same time, Senior Counsel Maruyama also said: "I hope that the final box office of this work can reach 1.5 times that of "Son of the Wolf: Rain and Snow", at least about 5 billion yen (about 252 million yuan)." ”

"Monster Child" is the latest work in three years after "Wolf Child Rain and Snow" (2012), which is popular with the audience for theatrical anime "Summer Wars" (2009) and "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" (2006). This work is based on the human world "Shibuya" and the monster world "Shibu Street" two worlds as the stage.,The unfortunate boy who is helpless gets lost in the monster world.,Met the free and loose single monster swordsman Xiong Che.,Became a disciple of Xiong Che.,Awarded the name of "Nine Too". The main content of the story is the cultivation process of the two. Starring voice actors Hiroshi Hiroshi, Aoi Miyazaki, Shota Someya, Suzu Hirose, etc.

Japanese fanfics may be banned by formal legislation in the near future

The current matter about the TPP agreement has aroused the attention of the entire animation industry. Recently, it was officially announced that the final conclusion will be reached in the meeting that began on the 28th of this month. This includes the "non-personal prosecution" of modifying copyright infringement without the copyright owner suing.

Lawyer Kensaku Fukui, who has a lot of knowledge about copyright issues, recently went to the government's TPP Headquarters with manga artist Ken Akamatsu and others to request that the copyright-related regulations be removed from the TPP negotiations, and brought 3,637 signatures. Speaking to the media, he said: "This regulation has the potential to weaken our country's competitiveness and rich cultural industry." ”

Under the Copyright Law, illegal copyright infringement such as piracy is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to 10 million yen, or up to 300 million yen in the name of a corporation. However, in the case of a lawsuit, the copyright owner must file a lawsuit. However, the United States is currently demanding that the crime of non-personal prosecution be carried out in China, and some scholars have analyzed this: "The United States is worried that piracy will become a source of funding for terrorism and antisocial forces. ”

However, if such a request is accepted, it may affect the secondary creation that is prevalent in Japan. One example of this is the doujinshi sales event "comiket", which was attended by hundreds of thousands of people. And most of the fandoms on sale here are recreations based on the original work, which is a gray area. And once the non-personal prosecution is convicted, it will be difficult to continue the activity. In this regard, Akamatsu said: "If people are worried about being caught, the results of their creations will shrink. The power of Japanese manga will also decline, which is a step backwards for COOLJAPAN. ”

Yoshiyuki Tamura, a professor at Hokkaido University, said: "Nowadays, copyright owners deliberately do not sue for secondary creations, so that their works can be widely used, which is conducive to social and economic development. Ken Akamatsu later claimed on his personal Twitter: "I hope to add some light-hearted elements to the regulations, if this is not done, then Japan will have to become a domestic animal of the United States." ”

Aya Uchida denied being asked to be slapped by a fan on Twitter

Born on July 23, 1986, voice actress and singer Aya Uchida has previously been loved by everyone for roles such as Minami Kotori in "LoveLive!" and Vicio Nitta in "Demon Survivor 2". However, recently, there have been rumors that "her fans asked for a slap from Aya Uchida", which she denied on Twitter.

"Thank you again for joining us for yesterday's handshake! There are 1,000 people coming~ Thank you for such a hot weather!! ”

"Also, I don't know why, there were rumors that I was asked to slap him by a fan, which is not true at all!! And no one asked me to do that!! Laugh. It's really a pity that this kind of unsubstantiated and unfounded stuff on the Internet has been spread one after another......"

In this regard, many netizens complained: "Why do people still believe this kind of news?" "Where is the IQ of netizens?" However, there are also some Dou M who excitedly said: "If I make such a request next time, will Aya Uchida agree?" ”

Still not out of animation? Sales of the Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic plummeted

The light novel "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic", written by Kazuma Kamaichi, is now 10 years old. However, the original work still shows no signs of finishing, and perhaps because fans are tired and unloved, the sales of the latest "New Testament Magical Forbidden Books Catalog 13" have plummeted.

Although the total sales of 83,179 copies in the current two weeks of release are not very ugly, and even many works do not reach this result by the end. However, the previous "New Testament Magical Forbidden Book Catalogue 12" sold 114317 copies in two weeks (even the sales of 89,471 copies in the first week at that time had surpassed the current 13th volume results), and this volume used Misaka Mikoto, the most popular in the series, as the main gimmick, but still couldn't prevent the sales plummet, so the result is probably unsatisfactory.

Of course, although many people lament that "the era of Forbidden is over", for many fans who are waiting for Forbidden 3, perhaps the decline in sales will stimulate the official launch of the sequel animation, and what the result is, let's stay tuned!

Mori Kogoro voice actor Ritsuya Koyama talks about his personal philosophy of peace

During this period of time, because of the Abe government's forced passage of the new security bill, many artists who did not care much about politics before have also come forward to express their concerns. And recently, Riki Koyama, who once dubbed Kogoro Mori for "Detective Conan", also told his thoughts.

Excerpts are as follows:

Is everyone okay? After participating in the stage performance, I was more energetic and devoted to my work. That's right, after the previous performance at the Kinokuniya building, I went to a school building and performed again.

The students watched the stage intently, and I was nervous. I really feel a lot of emotion!!

In fact, when I watched a TV show, I suddenly realized that life is very important.

It was an evening news program, and an active Self-Defense Forces official said in an interview: "The so-called protection of life and life, and the need to work hard are just beautiful words, and I ask the government to tell the truth." If we lose our lives, how do we secure them? How can we protect our families, such as our wives and children? And he hoped he could say those things in Congress.

I thought of something else.

I met with members of the Self-Defense Forces at a consultation meeting. At that time, the other party said with emotion: "After watching this work, foreigners think that Japan is a very good country, and they want to come to Japan to see it." And the reason why this was possible was also because Japan maintained the greatest restraint. His words won applause that day.

Don't make enemies, defend democracy, and protect the law. Negotiate on the basis of respect for the other party. This is what we should be doing. However, groundless speculation cannot form a consensus at all, nor can it be understood and approved by the other party. And the question of "whether the right thing to do" is not something to watch from the side, but the focus that each of us must pay attention to.

Actor Mr. Sugawara Harata once said, "Those who say fearless words often dare to say them from a position of absolute safety." "I couldn't agree more. If you really want to impose your consciousness on others, then you should be the first to rush out, just like the president in the movie "Independence Day". That's true fearlessness.

I want freedom of expression, freedom of speech. I hate authoritarianism. If you attack anyone who opposes you, then you will not be truly trusted. I hope those people can listen to other people's opinions and read more reviews and reports.

Thank you, everyone, for listening to me say so much. I'm going to talk more about my work in the future. See you next time!

The 53-year-old manager of a supermarket in Japan has excellent painting skills and has become popular on the Internet

Japanese supermarkets have a tradition of customers filling in their wishes and the store manager answering them, similar to the suggestion box in Japan. Now, a netizen sent a few "replies" drawn by the manager of a supermarket near his home to netizens, which aroused strong onlookers from netizens.

Because the store manager's drawing skills are so strong, many customers come to fill out a letter of opinion just to get a picture of the store manager. Although the store manager is 53 years old, none of the popular works can be difficult to stop him. Now let's take a look at his magnum opus.

The producers of the "God Eater" series talk about their views on the work

The popular game "God Eater" was recently adapted into a TV anime for broadcast. This work uses a new CG technology, so it has attracted a lot of attention. Recently, the official brought us the opinion of Yusuke Tomizawa, the producer of the series, on the charm of the work.

This work started from the PSP platform, and has now expanded to a series of masterpieces on various game platforms such as PSV and PS4, and the official is constantly adding new elements to bring us a unique plot development. At present, the TV animation has been broadcast to the third episode.,The important character Alyssa officially joined the station.,And with the protagonist Soragi, a wonderful plot has begun.。 However, Tomizawa said that in fact, they also challenged some new elements in the TV anime.

First of all, in terms of the image table, "We tried to create a world that is barren but beautiful, and we wanted the characters to show their beautiful side in a clear atmosphere. To do this, they added a never-before-used shadow table and a color technique. In this way, this work subverts the common form of "one color of the skin and one color of the shadow" commonly used in animation, and for this reason, the effect of "oil painting painted with heavy colors" is presented to everyone.

In addition, the work uses a form of coexistence of 2D and 3D images, so it makes the audience feel like 3D animation. But in general, different people will have their own feelings when watching this work, and this kind of painting technique is also a strong pillar of the animation of "God Eater".

In other aspects, Tomizawa also mentioned the content of the plot and music, and introduced the charm of the TV anime "God Eater" from various aspects. If you are interested, you may wish to go to the official website to find out!

The Japanese media interpreted how "Shonen JUMP" was made in an all-round way

I believe that as long as you like anime, you should feel very familiar with the magazine "Weekly Shonen Jump", right? This is a publication that has launched "Dragon Ball", "Slam Dunk" and "ONEPIECE", and recently some media analyzed how JUMP was made.

★How exactly did JUMP come to be made?

Plate making is simply the work of processing a manga artist's original manuscript before printing. JUMP was completed at 13 printing companies and joint printing agencies throughout Japan. The staff had to scan the original, synthesize some of the lines that would have been handwritten, and make them into a print-ready version.

In such a process, the most troublesome work is naturally to interpret the author's handwritten lines. Sometimes because the author's notes are sloppy, many sentences are difficult to understand. And the most difficult to decipher in the current serialized works is a comic that starts with "silver".

★How did JUMP print and produce a book?

After obtaining the finished resin plate, it is time to enter the stage of printing and writing. The printed paper is rolled on huge shafts, each of which weighs about 400 kilograms. This shaft is set on a machine called a running machine, which starts printing. Basically, about 320,000 pages can be printed on each axis, but JUMP will not be able to keep up with the progress because it only runs one machine, so there are often several machines working at the same time. The JUMP1 uses 3,700 shafts, each weighing about 1,554 tons. It can only be said that it is worthy of being the No. 1 manga magazine in Japan, and it can have such a terrifying scale.

In addition, JUMP uses recycled paper, but if they abandon recycled paper, will Japan be surrounded by recycled paper?

★How did you come up with the cover of JUMP?

The cover can be said to be a face of the magazine. And the cover design is not a cartoonist, but a dedicated designer. In each issue of the magazine, several people will come up with a design draft, which will then be reviewed by the deputy editor-in-chief to determine which one to use. From the perspective of design direction, when a new work or a new serialization such as "My Hero Academia" is to be used on the cover, it is necessary to show the characteristics of the comic; On the contrary, if you use a well-known work such as "ONEPIECE" as the cover, then you need to add some seasonal elements, which is relatively more entertaining.

For example, during the finale of the "Naruto" serialization, JUMP chose "Assassination Classroom" as the cover theme. And the reason why this happened is also because of the relationship between JUMP and "looking at the re-works". After all, this is a publication that always focuses on the future.

In addition to the content introduced above, there is a book called "JUMP's correct method of making zuò" (ジャンプの正しい作り方!) ) for a more comprehensive analysis. The book also contains some of the most simple questions about JUMP: "Is the order in which JUMP posts based on popularity?" "I believe this question has been bothering readers for a long time, right? The answer to this is: "Basically, according to popularity, but not absolutely." "Sometimes works of the same genre cannot be put together, and the works that the editorial department wants to recommend will be ranked high, in short, on the basis of reader questionnaires, carefully consider the order of serialization.

In addition, someone asked, "Who came up with the idea that the theme of JUMP is friendship, hard work, and victory?" In reality, the magazine doesn't have such a theme! Basically, as long as the work is interesting, anything can be serialized here. But since it's a shonen manga, the above three elements are naturally included in the work.

In the book, there are interviews with designers who design logos for major works, and you can also see the office environment of Kohei Horikoshi, the author of "My Hero Academia", if you are interested in JUMP works, you might as well buy this book and study it carefully!

The "Idol Master Cinderella Girl" series constitutes a talking role

Since July, the second season of the animation of "Idol Master Cinderella Girl" has officially returned to the audience. And I believe that many people are talking about the characters in the work, right? Recently, according to the sneaking away picture news: The series composition of the work talked about the setting of the characters.

"In order to prevent her from being overly fictitious, we consciously added the vivid characteristics of real girls. And I think it would be great if I could fully integrate the characters of the comics with the real people in reality. As for the last Weiyang appeared with the angels, so...... It's a youkai (laughs). She is able to liven up the atmosphere and both men and women will love her. But even so, it doesn't mean that she is a noisy character, in fact, she is also inextricably linked to the core of the plot. Also, Weiyang has a lot of lines, which belongs to a rhythm that can't be stopped without self-control (laughs). And Rin and Utsuki also have their own unstable elements, and if you miss some of the plot a little, you may find that they have changed a lot. ”

In this regard, many fans commented, especially on Weiyang's table xiàn:

NotIdentified2015/07/2600:00:00

This guy is the culprit!

非通知さん@アプリ起動中2015/07/25(土)12:15:31.05ID:(1/6)

At the moment, it looks like a character who can only be noisy......

非通知さん@アプリ起動中2015/07/25(土)12:10:08.78ID:(2/2)

Oh, that's what it seems, although Weiyang has a very noisy side, but when he sees that Mao Yue is crazier than himself, he seems to have regained his senses.

Shoko Nakagawa revealed that she used to be a fan of Fujiwara Ryuya

During this time, "Pokémon Theatrical Edition of the Light Wheel's Super Demon God Huba" has attracted a lot of fan attention. And in the film, Shoko Nakagawa and Ryu Fujiwara also dubbed a pair of brothers and sisters. Recently, Nakagawa broke the news that he had painted Fujiwara in junior high school.

Fujiwara, who is taking on the challenge of dubbing for the theatrical version of the Pokémon series for the first time, said, "The voice actor is really in-depth work. It's not that you can just put a voice on the character. Although I was a little confused about the voice acting work that I was not familiar with, Shoko helped me a lot in creating the character. ”

In this regard, Nakagawa responded with emotion: "Such an evaluation is too high! When I was in junior high school, I watched Mr. Fujiwara's stage play, and I painted a portrait of Mr. Fujiwara. Although the drawing is disgusting (laughs). Back then, Fujiwara starred in a work called "Body Poison Pill", and Nakagawa was so moved that he couldn't help but paint a portrait of him.

It was precisely because of that past that Nakagawa was extremely excited to work with Fujiwara: "So, I'm so excited to be able to dub together this time!" It feels like YY has come true. Mr. Fujiwara, who is capable of playing all the roles in the third dimension, has also brought us the perfect role in the second dimension this time, which is really amazing! Drawing for Mr. Fujiwara is my black history. And it seems that my junior high school friend is still holding that picture, and if I see it now, I will definitely want to tear it off (wry smile). Fuji said a little shyly, "I'm actually quite interested in that picture." ”

"Pokémon Theatrical Version of the Light Wheel's Super Demon God Huba" is currently continuing to be screened, and friends with conditions may wish to go to the cinema to pay attention to the table of the two.

The man who intimidated Satomi Sato was recently arrested by the police

Satomi Sato, who has starred in many roles such as "Light Girl" Ritsu Tanai, "Ice Candy" Chitanda Airu, "Delusional Student Council" Seven Skies, and "Fairy Tail" Wendy Mabel, is loved by fans. Recently, the police arrested a man suspected of intimidating her.

According to the Metropolitan Police Department's announcement, the man was from Settsu City, Osaka Prefecture, and his name was Jun Yasumoto (39). Police said Aberdeen tweeted in June that he was allegedly threatening Satomi Sato, and that the man has now pleaded guilty to his crimes.

During the investigation, the police found that Yasumoto was an animation fan, and Sato also had a good impression of Sato because of his previous appearance in "Light Girl", but he thought that the other party ignored him, so he threatened him.

Since Aberdeto did have the possibility of buying tickets for Sato's concert in August during the period of issuing the threatening letter, the Metropolitan Police Department suspected whether he was already advancing the attack plan and launched an investigation based on this. And because of the intimidation, Sato's various activities have also strengthened vigilance.

Details of the "Instructor of the Air Combat Magus Candidate Student" event have been announced

Since July, a work adapted from the light novel of the same name has officially met with everyone, which is "The Instructor of the Alternate Student of the Air Combat Magi". Recently, the official held a screening event with the nature of a meet-and-greet, and the main voice actors of the work were all present.

"The Instructor of the Air Combat Magus Candidate" tells the story of a world where humans and demon beetles coexist from the earth and are mortal enemies of each other. And the actor Sota Eiji was originally the ace of the S128 spy team and was known as the "Black Sword Saint". But now he is regarded as a "traitor to the secret service team", and goes to the rear to become the instructor of the E601 team, which has lost consecutive battles. Waiting for him are three young girls who are not easy to serve: the smart and ill-tempered Reiko Flamel, the timid Rickutey Eisenach, who is as timid as a small animal, and the leader of the squad with a strong sense of justice, Hitomi Whittyre. So what is the fate of Sota Eiji...... The voice actors who participated in the event included Nozomi Yamamoto (Misora Whitdil), Higashi ** Yang (Rikudi Eisenach), Iori Nomizu (Riko Flamel) and Risa Taneda (Yuri Frost).

■ Extremely oppressive battle scenes that are repeated in the beautiful air

As soon as this event came up, the plot of the first episode was broadcast. And it can be said that from the beginning, the audience can have a relatively clear understanding of the world view of "The Instructor of the Air Combat Magus Candidate Student", and witness the breathtakingly beautiful sky and the battles in the sky. Such an oppressive picture also makes it easier to bring everyone into the world of the work.

After the release of the first episode, Yamamoto, who served as the host of the day, and Nosui, who sang the theme song, made their appearances. In addition, Nosui, who was dressed in blue, sang the theme song "D.O.B." directly and held a small concert. Her cute and powerful voice was accompanied by a bit of sexiness, which made the scene fall into madness all of a sudden. And the fans also waved blue glow sticks to cheer on the wild water singing.

■In addition to the characters and works, we also talked about a variety of topics, including favorite food

After the mini concert, Higashiyama, who played Rikudi, and Farming, who played Yuri, also appeared in front of everyone. So far, all the guests have arrived, and the event has also entered the symposium. In this session, the voice actors took various questions out of the box and discussed them.

First of all, Higashiyama got the title "About the first episode", and she wanted everyone to pay attention to Rikudi's swimsuit, Rikudi's encounter with the protagonist in the women's bathroom, and the beautiful depiction of the sky and the city in the work. Several others began to discuss the size of the heroines' breasts and the interesting facts about the recording.

Next, Nosui asked the question of "what you think is important when you play a role, and about the role you play". Immediately, everyone gave their own overview of what kind of characters they played and how they played them. Among them, Taneda also revealed that an interesting character related to Yuri will also appear in the work, and I hope everyone can look forward to it.

At this point, Taneda also led the conversation to the topic of "the food that voice actors like", and once the focus of the discussion was removed from the work, the scene immediately became a foodie meeting for girls to talk about food. When choosing their favorite food, they chose "umeboshi" for farming, "preserved eggs" for Nosui, "seaweed" for Higashiyama, and "porridge" for Yamamoto.

Finally, when Yamamoto first talked about the topic of "what to expect in the future", she listed what happened to Eiji Sota, who starred in Matsuoka, after he became an instructor in the crane tail team, and how the plot showed the heroine's unique side while making full use of the setting of the work. In addition, I hope that everyone can stay by the TV on time and wait for the live broadcast.

Next, we moved on to the thematic discussion. Since this work is a story between an instructor and a student, everyone narrated their "impressive instructors (teachers)".

When she was in junior high school, she served as a cheerleader at the sports day, and her teachers at the time gave her a lot of support. When Nosui arrived in Tokyo, her high school teacher became her strongest backing for her path to voice acting; Higashiyama's junior high school math teacher once asked her to challenge the entrance exam questions of Tokyo University in the final exam without saying a word; Yamamoto received a lot of help during her time at the training center, and it was thanks to the cooperation of the instructors that she was able to pass the audition. These warm stories about the "instructors" also resonated with the audience.

Finally, after the official announcement of the latest information about the work, this screening event also came to an end.

"School Island" Hu Yisho effect gave birth to the gardening shovel purchase fever

Anyone who has watched the new "School Island" in July should be deeply impressed by the character Hu Tao in the film, right? This girl, who seems to be very lively and actually killed her crush with her own hands, has recently unexpectedly led to a "gardening shovel buying boom".

In the plot, when facing the senior who has become a zombie, Hu Tao grabbed the gardening shovel at hand in a hurry and killed the other party directly. And since then, she has relied on this shovel to protect the stable life of Yuki and others, and for this reason, she has been ridiculed as "Hu Yisho" by many Chinese fans.

Perhaps because of her bravery, there are currently a large number of people buying gardening shovels on Amazon in Japan. In the comments, you can see words such as "If the zombies come, buy one to defend yourself", "It is perfect to use it to get zombies", and some people believe that the shrewd merchants will definitely launch some kind of shovel brand cooperation project in the future, which also makes us stay concerned with a bit of laughter!

In "School Island", the heroine Yuki Zhanggun is a female high school student who participates in activities in the school club "School Life Club" in the patrol hill. And she originally lived a very happy life like Hu Tao and Yuri and others. However, in fact, the school has long been surrounded by zombies. And Hu Tao and Yuri in order to protect Yuki's school life from being destroyed, they stepped forward and started a duel with zombies......

The sequel novel to "Emerald Star" will be released at the end of August, and the details will be revealed

The second season of the TV anime version of the original anime "Emerald Star no Gargontia" was difficult to give birth due to various reasons, and the plot of the second season will appear in the form of a novel. Now, the first volume of the novel version is confirmed to be released on August 29, and the details have been revealed.

The novel version that will be released on August 29 will be officially titled "The Emerald Star of Gargangtia ~ Far Away, the Heaven and Earth of Encounters ~ Up".

In the sequel novel released this time, the stage of the story has shifted from the sea to the land, and not only will the members of Galguntia in the anime continue to be active, but new characters will also appear. The plot of the story will also touch on the core of the whole series. Among them, the most interesting point is that there will be a machine very similar to Chamber.

In addition, the novel also includes character drawings and mechanical settings drawn by the tsuzuò group for the second season of the TV anime. Now some of the design drawings have been released, with the enthusiastic and unrestrained teenager Russell, the silver-haired military beautiful girl Skaya, and the humanoid machine driven by Skaya. Russell and Skaya were supposed to be the heroes and heroines of the second season of the TV anime, but unfortunately the plan for the second season has been aborted.

Finally, there's what Ryder, the protagonist of Season 1, looks like in Season 2. Season 2 takes place about two years after the OVA Distant Voyage, and 18-year-old Ryder has become more handsome. Since there is an "upper volume", then there must be a "lower volume". In addition to the character setting, SF and world view setting in the next volume, there is also a commentary supervised by Kazuya Murata.

"Emerald Star no Gargontia" is an original SF anime produced by Production I.G, supervised by Kazuya Murata and scripted by Gen Hibuchi, which aired from April to June 2013. The OVA "Distant Voyage" takes place half a year after the finale of the TV anime, while the story of the novel version takes place about two years after the OVA and is the canonical sequel to the entire series.

Kazuya Minekura's latest single volume 7 of the popular manga "WILDADAPTER" was officially published today (July 25).

The evaluable titles of China's animation and game majors will be linked to the salary

The city's animation and game practitioners have established a special channel for evaluating professional titles. Yesterday, the Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau and the Municipal Bureau of Culture jointly issued the "Beijing Art Series (Animation and Game) Professional and Technical Qualification Evaluation Trial Measures", starting from September, all professional and technical personnel engaged in planning, screenwriting, directing, art design and other work in the professional field of animation, comics and electronic games can apply for the corresponding titles. It is reported that the inclusion of animation and game majors in the evaluation of professional titles is the first time in the city, and it is also the first in the country, and it is expected that more than 50,000 professional and technical personnel will benefit from the city.

22 majors in three fields can participate in the evaluation of professional titles

It is understood that there are currently more than 2,000 animation and game enterprises in the city, and more than 200 enterprises above designated size, including iQiyi, Perfect World, etc., with more than 50,000 employees. "In recent years, the cultural and creative industry has become an important strategic layout for the transformation and upgrading of the city's industrial structure and the cultivation of new economic growth points. As an important branch, the animation and game industry urgently needs a large number of professional and technical personnel to provide intellectual support. More than 50,000 employees have a strong desire to obtain professional titles. To this end, after many investigations, we have established a special professional title evaluation channel for animation and game practitioners, which can be regarded as giving them an authoritative and universal evaluation standard from now on.

A reporter from Beiqing Daily noticed that in the application conditions, the words "including vocational high schools and technical schools" appeared, which means that graduates of vocational high schools and technical schools can also participate in the evaluation of professional titles. Like the primary title, after graduating from technical secondary school (including vocational high school and technical school), you can apply for the professional work after 5 years; Intermediate, technical secondary school (including vocational high school, technical school) after graduation, engaged in the professional work for 15 years, etc. There is no precedent for allowing vocational high school and technical school students to participate in the evaluation of professional titles in other professional titles.

The relevant person in charge said that the setting of the evaluation standards for animation and game titles reflects the characteristics of the animation and game industry, the development needs of the industry and the occupational characteristics of employees, so the requirements for academic qualifications and qualifications have been weakened, and more attention has been paid to the assessment and evaluation of the professional and technical level, business ability, work performance and innovation achievements of the applicants, highlighting the assessment of the integration and innovation of technology and art. "It's more about talking about the work. The work is hard enough, and it can even be recommended for participation without being restricted by academic qualifications and other conditions.
