Chapter 67 What if I can't afford the dubbing?
"Me? Illustrator?"

Hearing Bai Zhu's invitation, Huang Ruoqi was surprised and happy: "Can I do it?"

"why not?"

Bai Shu asked with a smile.

When she was playing the game just now, Bai Shu asked [Zero] to investigate her information, know her previous works and resume, and even know other people's evaluations of her works that Huang Ruoqi did not know.

From the information collected by [Zero], Bai Zhu knew that Huang Ruoqi's painting skills were quite good, and even a game company wanted to hire her as a game concept designer, but, well, in the end, she was taken over by the boss's sister-in-law. Location.

Of course, another reason for inviting Huang Ruoqi is that [Zero] is very difficult to do the job.

It's not that [Zero] can't draw illustrations, but that it can't create original illustrations.

This is different from creating novels, because the plot development of novels relies on those 36 modes, [Zero] can freely combine to generate many plots, but drawing is purely created out of nothing.

Of course, [Zero] can also borrow illustrations on the Internet, but those illustrations are either meaningless pure pictures, or illustrations from other games.

Wanting to find illustrations that are related to "The Other Shore of Dreams" and can also meet Bai Shu's intentions is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Therefore, Bai Shu thought of Huang Ruoqi, and wanted her to provide illustration ideas for him.

"Okay, I accept the job!"

Huang Ruoqi is not that kind of pretentious girl. Thinking of the quality reflected in "The Other Side of Dreams", she directly agreed.

"Then, happy cooperation."

Bai Shu and Huang Ruoqi shook hands.

"Let's say it in advance, it's okay to be an illustrator, I can even sign a contract with you at a low price, but I must be added to the list of producers of this game!"

Huang Ruoqi said seriously.

"Credits? No problem."

Baizhu didn't care about this.

"Also, although this game doesn't require too many illustrations, if it's just me, the progress will not be too fast. Do I need to ask some friends to help?"

Huang Ruoqi asked again.

"No, I also hired an illustration team here."

Bai Shu waved his hand.

"Really, can I know which industry's big hand it is?"

Huang Ruoqi asked curiously.

"Ahem, this...is a bit inconvenient."

Bai Shu declined politely.

He can't say that there is no illustration team at all, it's just him and [Zero], the artificial intelligence.

Afterwards, Bai Shu told Huang Ruoqi the general plot of the game and asked him to draw two samples first.

……

A few days later, Huang Ruoqi handed the sample manuscript to Baizhu.

"Do you think this style is appropriate?"

Looking at the two beautiful and realistic pictures in his hand, Bai Shu nodded secretly.

In fact, with Baizhu's painting skills, he can draw illustrations by himself. However, he is a male after all, so he can only draw some objective scenery. When drawing the portrait of the male protagonist, he was a little unsure about the girl.

At this time, seeing the portrait of the male lead in Huang Ruoqi's painting, Bai Shu knew what kind of male lead girls like.

"Okay, let's continue painting in this style."

Bai Shu left the sample draft and began to assign illustration tasks to Huang Ruoqi.

After Huang Ruoqi left the rental house, Bai Shu immediately said to [Zero]: "Connect the tablet and start the painting software!"

[Okay, designer. 】

As the digital board screen lights up, Bai Shu quickly enters the state of drawing: "[Zero], turn on the recording mode, and memorize this drawing style."

【Yes. 】

Soon, Bai Shu drew a black and white artwork on the digital board.

"Now start coloring and memorize the color position."

【Yes. 】

Three hours later, the first drawing was completed.

"Do you remember the color of the costume of the character in the painting?"

[Yes, designer. 】

"Okay, I'll draw another one, and you can color it yourself."

Not long after, another black and white draft of the hero was drawn.

"Now let's start color matching."

【Yes. 】

As the dialog box on the computer screen disappeared, the male lead's costume on the digital board began to be colored automatically.

As [Zero] colors the male protagonist in the artwork, Baizhu corrects it.

"No, no, no...it's not right here, because the sunlight is seen from this direction, so we have to..."

"Yes, this is the style, but the color here needs to be lighter..."

"Very well, there's nothing too wrong this time, but..."

"Good job this time."

……

Bai Shu knew very well the principle of "sharpening the knife but cutting wood again", so he very patiently taught [Zero] how to draw these illustrations.

And Bai Shu's efforts were not in vain. After a week, no matter which character is drawn, as long as Bai Shu's black and white draft is drawn, in just a few seconds, [Zero] will automatically paint the color, and there are almost no flaws .

With the evolution of [Zero], Bai Shu's drawing speed is as if it has been turned on, and the progress of game production is naturally greatly accelerated.

In the blink of an eye, three weeks passed.

"What, you said the painting is basically finished?"

Huang Ruoqi, who had just handed in another illustration, asked with her eyes wide open.

"Yes, I hired another illustration studio to help, so the progress has been accelerated a lot."

Bai Shu just made up an excuse.

"That's it."

Huang Ruoqi was a little disappointed.

To be honest, she really likes to draw illustrations for "The Other Side of Dreams", because this is the first time that she has created a game not as a collaborator, but as a participant.

Seeing that Huang Ruoqi was about to leave, Bai Shu stopped her and asked embarrassingly, "Senior sister, do you think "The Other Shore of Dreams" needs to hire some voice actors to dub the characters?"

"Of course!"

Huang Ruoqi said: "A large part of the reason why the first love and the agent are so popular is because the voice actors hired are highly compatible with the roles."

"Oh."

Bai Shu nodded clearly, and then asked, "Then who do you think should be matched with these characters in the game?"

There are four male protagonists in "The Other Shore of Dreams", and more than ten supporting roles, large and small.

"For a singer, I think Liu Youjiang would be a good choice. His voice is a bit deeper... For the president, please..."

Huang Ruoqi named several voice actors who she felt were suitable.

"That's it, thank you, senpai."

Bai Shu nodded.

"Hey, you don't really plan to invite these teachers to come and dub?"

Seeing Bai Shu's serious look, Huang Ruoqi asked expectantly.

"I would like to invite you, but... I have no money."

Baizhu spreads his hands.

"What are you going to do?"

Huang Ruoqi asked with some concern.

After all, she is also the producer of this game, so she is a little worried that the lack of suitable voice actors will leave flaws in the game.

"If you can't afford others, just rely on yourself."

Atractylodes does not matter authentic.

"Self-reliance...wait!"

Huang Ruoqi suddenly thought of something: "You don't mean—you plan to dub the game yourself?!"

"Why, can't you?"

Bai Zhu's voice suddenly changed, becoming low and slightly hoarse.

"what!"

Hearing the sudden change of Bai Shu's voice, Huang Ruoqi jumped away in shock, her eyes were full of shock: "You...you really know how to dub?"

“Dubbing—what’s so difficult?”

This time, Bai Shu's voice became frivolous again, with a faint cynical attitude in his tone.

"This……"

Seeing Bai Shu's coquettish manipulation, Huang Ruoqi was completely stunned.
