Chapter 135: Divine Charism Animation Festival

Qian Xin was lucky.

He was one of the first UP masters to transform into a charismatic animation and became an instant hit with "The Adventures of Jayne".

Standing on the tuyere, pigs can fly, and he is the pig!

With the fame and fans accumulated by "The Adventures of Jayne", after that, he purchased the professional version of the Divine Grace Continent and made two new divine grace animations.

"Divine Grace Magic Academy" and "I was confessed by the queen as a reincarnated elf"!

These two charismatic animations, although they did not achieve as brilliant results as "The Adventures of Jayne", were not bad, allowing him to successfully earn a sum of money.

As the saying goes, when people have money and meet their basic needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation, they will chase fame and fortune, especially "fame"!

Qian Xin is no exception.

He thinks that he is a member of the animation industry and is already a qualified animation director.

But it's a pity that the animation industry doesn't accept him, and it doesn't recognize animators like him, who started with "charismatic animation", and still excludes them.

Qian Xin brought his own works and also signed up for many animation award ceremonies, but the results were all stupid.

It's like online writers, it's hard to get the recognition of traditional published writers and integrate into their circles, people look down on you and think you can't be on the stage, so what can you do?

Of course, I don't play with them, I pull a circle on my own.

Qian Xin wrote a 10,000-word letter to Tianba Studio, which elaborated on the impact and fragmentation of divine grace animation on traditional animation.

He suggested that Tianba Studio come forward and take the lead in establishing the so-called "Divine Grace Animation Association" and hold the "Divine Grace Animation Festival" to speak out for the majority of Divine Grace Animation people who have not received attention and attention.

In the letter, he said:

“…… Divine Grace animation originated from "Divine Grace Continent" and is considered half a game derivative. Because of this, Grace Animation has not been recognized by the animation industry, thinking that we are entertaining ourselves. ”

"As of August this year, the cumulative total output of global charismatic animation is as high as 13.07 million minutes, which is dozens of times higher than traditional animation!"

"The total output value is also billions of yuan, and Divine Grace Animation is one of the representatives of the new force animation, and it is also a group that has been ignored by the mainstream, and we need to speak out ......"

"If we don't give Divine Grace Animation fair treatment, then we don't need the approval of others, it's good to play our own!"

"It is imminent to establish the Charismatic Animation Association and hold the Charismatic Animation Festival, and I think only Brother Ba has the prestige and appeal to unite all Charismatic Animation people together......"

Brother Ba is a god, Brother Ba is light!

Brother Ba is like the sun, shining on every Charismatic Animation person, and the Charismatic Animation Association can't lose Ba Ge, just like a fish can't leave the water.

After filming a rainbow fart, it was probably for Brother Ba to see that it was cool, and he replied decisively to express his support.

So, under Qian Xin's appeal, Chen Ba stood up and publicly stated that he would establish the so-called Divine Grace Animation Association, invite global Divine Grace Animation people to come to Jiangning, formulate industry standards and rules, and seek common development for the future development of the industry.

Yes, globally!

The Charismatic Animation Association must be a global industry association, after all, Charismatic animation is not unique to China, and other countries and regions also broadcast Charismatic animation.

The president must be a bully.

The origin of all Grace animations is the RPG adventure game "Grace Continent", and Brother Ba is the producer of the game.

To put it mildly, he is the ancestor of Divine Grace Animation, giving everyone jobs!

He doesn't deserve to be the president, so who has the prestige?

The headquarters of the association is located in Jiangning.

Brother Ba is the president, the vice president and secretary general is Qian Xin, and the other vice president is from Neon, who has also made many outstanding contributions in the field of charismatic animation.

What's more, this neon animator has a lot of fame and prestige in the entire animation industry.

In addition to the president, vice president and secretary-general, the association also has 17 "directors". It is served by charismatic animators from all over the world, with outstanding performance and excellent achievements.

Brother Ba basically doesn't care.

This is the same as the GAL league, Brother Ba is the "rubber stamp" and "spiritual leader" that everyone carries out.

In ancient times, there was a prime minister who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and now there is a rich secretary general who coerces the brother to order the princes......

Plainly!

Chen Ba, the president, is nominally in power, but he really doesn't care about things, and he doesn't have time to manage the internal affairs of this association. Qian Xin, the vice president and secretary general, is the one who is really in charge.

The association was established, and the first president, Chen Ba, solemnly put forward a proposal: to hold a charismatic animation festival!

As the name suggests, this charismatic animation festival is similar to the Cannes Film Festival, Venice Film Festival, and Berlin Film Festival.

Open only for Divine Grace anime!

As long as it is a charismatic animation, you can sign up for the charismatic animation festival, and in addition to the grand exhibition activities, the major "charisma awards" will also be selected.

The awards include Best Charismatic Animated Short Film, Best TV Animation, Best Animated Film, Best Animated Character, Best Animation Director, Best Animated Screenplay, Best Animated Music, Best Animation Editing, Charismatic of the Year Award, and more.

It's different from other animation awards.

At the Charismatic Animation Festival, the awards are more focused on "creativity", "director" and "screenwriter", and as for production, there is no recognition at all.

This is also normal.

After all, how can God Charismatic Animation make this part? There is an editor in Dingtian, and the rest is left to "Divine Grace Continent" to complete.

The establishment of the award includes the prize money and the due cost of the Charismatic Animation Festival, mainly the membership fees paid by the members, and the sponsorship given by the Tianba Studio.

The first Charismatic Animation Festival is scheduled to be held at the end of this month.

Qian Xin began to be busy with this early, looking for a suitable venue and leasing it, arranging the stage and venue, and customizing the trophy.

The most important thing is to contact the major animation companies and animation producers to submit their works to the jury for review as soon as possible, so as not to be too late to participate in the jury.

Because it's the first Charismatic Animation Festival, the process is very hasty, it's basically a formality, and the awards have already been decided.

If you don't make up your mind, you can't help it.

After all, time is limited, and the judges are very busy, so they can't waste too much time.

However, although it is an internal decision, the award-winning works selected are all really wonderful and good-looking, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best of God Grace animation.

Interestingly......

The first Divine Charismatic Animation Festival set up a Lifetime Achievement Award, which was then awarded to Brother Ba.

The award citation said:

"He opened up a new track in the animation industry, and he created the category of charismatic animation...... Although he is not an animator and does not have any works, he has left a strong page in the history of animation. ”

The Lifetime Achievement Award was awarded in the first session, which really broke the perception of many people.

But if you think about it carefully, this award really has to be awarded to Brother Ba, if he hadn't developed the game "Divine Grace Continent", how could everyone be today?

The applause was very enthusiastic.

Brother Ba won the award, and everyone was convinced.

Although he is not in the animation industry, his legend is circulating in the animation industry. The great achievement of leveraging the entire animation industry with one game is unique in the world!

"Brother Ba actually won the award?"

"Hmmm! Won the award! ”

Yang Dong applauded and said regretfully: "It's a pity that it's not a game award, otherwise there would be an excuse for Brother Ba to give us a raise." ”

Why not a game prize?

Brother Ba dreamed of winning a game-related grand prize, but unfortunately he hasn't been able to realize his dream until now. On the contrary, in the field of animation, Brother Ba is already considered a success, and the trophy is soft.

It's not just animation.

In other fields, Brother Ba has also won a lot of awards, what is the best dealer, the most beautiful matchmaker in Jiangning, and the achievements are also not low.

Why is the main business so pulled?

After thinking about it, Yang Dong felt that it was still a matter of game topic selection, and Tianba Studio did some small-scale games, not large-scale games.

If it's not a big game, it's hard to win the prize. The main thing is that the size of the game determines the content of the game, and if there is less content, then you will lack competitiveness.

Unless it's a game like "It Takes Two", which is small in size but really bright and amazing enough, it is difficult to compete head-on with triple-A.

"You can pull it down!"

Xiao Lu pursed his lips and said, "If you put aside this salary increase, if you don't get fired by Brother Ba, you will be considered a success!" ”

Expel?

When Yang Dong heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Have you heard something?" ”

"Do you need to hear about this?"

"Brother Ba has already informed in the group that the studio will expand to about 25 people, and at the same time, some employees who are not good enough in business and have a bad work attitude will be cleaned up."

Xiao Lu sighed and said, "Don't worry, we, the entrepreneurial veterans, will not be killed by Brother Ba for the time being." ”

It's hard to say about the others.

There are more than a dozen people in Tianba Studio, not all of them are capable, and not everyone is like Xiao Lu and Yang Dong, and they have a very diligent work attitude.

It is inevitable that Brother Ba will get angry.

There are a few people, and it's really too messy. This attitude cannot be said to be wrong, it is indeed possible to mix a little in large enterprises, and I am not afraid that no one will do the work anyway.

But in an "entrepreneurial" team like Tianba Studio, Chen Ba will definitely not be able to accept the emergence of such a bastard that only a large enterprise has.

His requirements are already low.

I don't want everyone to be a god, but in an entrepreneurial team, you have to have a working attitude, right?

If you put this health care on hold, why don't you apply for a job in a big company? When he came to the entrepreneurial team, not only did he feel uncomfortable, but Chen Ba also felt upset when he saw it.

There will be a number of people who will be dismissed.

But in the same way, Tianba Studio will also welcome a group of new employees, and the team will further grow.

The number of people in the team of 25 people is the limit that the current studio office space can bear, and it is also the number of people that Chen Ba has seriously considered.

This team size is enough to meet the development of some "medium-sized" games.

The so-called medium-sized game is probably a game that starts at 98 yuan in the country and moves closer to more than 100 yuan.

Three digits!

This is Chen Ba's next stage goal, and it is also the work arrangement of Tianba Studio next year, a game with a three-digit price and medium size.

This is not a 3A......

Although it is true that the selling price of some 3A games is in this range, it is a "discounted" price, not a normal selling price.

What Chen Ba wants to do is a game with an original price of three digits, and it can be sold for sixty or seventy yuan after the discount.

Although this kind of game has not reached the height of 3A, the overall quality and completion quality are already quite high, which is not comparable to the games developed in the past.

After the closing of the Divine Grace Animation Festival, Chen Ba was thinking about a question.

What conditions do you need to meet for a game to reach a three-digit price?

Don't mention the pricing of the mystery.

Under normal circumstances, 100-yuan games should have relatively top game screens, or particularly excellent gameplay.

In other words, it is to do better than the 68-dollar game, so that players are willing to pay a few dozen dollars more, rather than thinking that the price is inflated and not worth the original price.

PUBG is probably like this.

However, the price of PUBG in the early days was only 98 pieces, and the gameplay was relatively simple and boring, except for a basic map, there were no desert and rainforest maps at that time.

In other words......

In the early days of PUBG, the base map alone couldn't afford that price, and it was barely reasonable to include the desert and rainforest maps.

The games under Tianba Studio, "Divine Grace Continent" and "Love Staff" are both 68 yuan.

These two games are worth the price.

Regardless of the other roles of these two games, purely in terms of gameplay and game volume, selling 98 pieces is a pure premium.

"If the Star Emperor makes the map bigger, the plot is richer, the combat mode is optimized, and there is a rich world view background, it can barely support a hundred-yuan game."

Yang Dong explained: "No kidding, if we can really make the experience of the Star Emperor magnificent, from the end to the peak, and then cooperate with the large map of the open world, this is the foundation of the 3A game." ”

Yes!

Chen Ba nodded.

From the time he was weak, he went all the way to become an emperor of the starry sky and became an immortal. Combined with the open world map, this is a standard triple-A masterpiece.

Unfortunately, the process is too long.

From the weak to the peak, presenting the magnificent life of the Star Emperor to players, and making an open world map, this is really a huge amount of work.

This is also the reason why 3A has a difficult birth.

A complete triple-A game, in which multiple components are split out, can be sold for fifty or sixty yuan as a game alone.

Take the classic GWENT card, for example.

That's part of the 3A, can't it be made into a game alone? The answer is yes!

And Grand Theft Auto's driving and vehicle systems, can't you just take it out and make a racing game?

A high probability is also possible!

"If the Star Emperor has a chance in the future, it doesn't hurt to reset it, but it may not be called this name at that time."

Chen Ba couldn't help laughing as he spoke: "And at that time, "The Emperor of the Stars", which has undergone reset, is very likely to become a real 3A masterpiece!" ”

At that time, it wasn't too much for the game to sell for 300 yuan, right?

It's a joke, though.

The three-digit figure that Chen Ba said was just barely breaking through 100 yuan, but it was not a step to the sky, and he directly sold the game to two or three hundred, four or five hundred yuan.

Although they are all three-digit, the gap is still very large, and games with a price of 100+ and games with a price of 200+ are not the same concept at all.
