Chapter 285 Is this a conspiracy?

If you really want to decide to do Chinese dubbing, you must do it in advance. In terms of the amount of text in Red Dead Redemption, if you are looking for Chinese dubbing, let’s not mention the other key point, that is about dubbing candidates.

It can be said that in terms of quality, the entire Red Dead Redemption studio has achieved the ultimate. The main actors include extras. The entire Red Dead Redemption invited more than 1500 actors in total to use the action materials, and most of them paid the corresponding fees. fee, pour their respective face models into Red Dead Redemption.

The price Tianhe Network paid for this included the outsourcing of the entire Red Dead Redemption and the wages of contract workers and direct employees, as well as various other places. The budget cost has exceeded the standard, and the original plan of [-] million US dollars is probably not enough.

Money is not the most important issue. At present, there are quite a lot of cash cows in the Tianhe network, and it is still affordable to burn money.

The key is to determine whether there are so many qualified voice actors in the country after dubbing. It is not a big problem to have more than one person, but the key is that there are too many characters in Red Dead Redemption. In some side missions, even Ordinary NPCs have a lot of roles, and the NPCs on the street are not just one or two fixed lines as imagined.

They will have specific lines in specific situations, such as when the protagonist is a person with a bad reputation and a sloppy image, their attitudes and lines are different.

It doesn't require how good it is, but at least it doesn't make the players feel out of play, which is what Chuhe hopes.

"The voice actors in the game industry may not be able to meet the requirements. At that time, we can only find voice actors for film and television dubbing." Chu He rubbed his nose and thought.

"In addition, the translation of the game will also start simultaneously." Chu He thought to himself.

The mainstream languages ​​of various countries in the world are inevitable. In addition to Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and English, which are almost unchanged for thousands of years under Tianhe Networks, there are also German, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Russian languages. etc.

However, these problems are not very big, and you can find a professional translation outsourcing team for them, and they can be produced simultaneously.

According to the text volume of Red Dead Redemption, these projects will take about three months.

It will take at least two months if you consider setting the release time, handing over with the publisher, announcing it, and sending the plate to the factory for pressing, and then transporting the plate to game retail supermarkets such as GameStop in various countries for shelves.

…………

In Shanghai’s Longzu Studio, he sat in front of the computer and drank a glass of Red Bull. Zhang Ke sat there and continued to revise the proposal. The main character of the new game.

Regarding the new game, after a short chat with Chuhe, Zhang Ke has decided to start revising it.

Not only the background of the game, but also the plot, as well as the gameplay of the game were overthrown by him and redesigned.

During this period, he took the team to the Tianhe network in Jinling again, but this time it was not to find Chuhe, but to go to the technical department to learn about the characteristics of the origin engine.

Regarding the origin engine, currently only companies under Tianhe Network can use it. Previously, Penguin gave 500 million yuan, plus a 7% monthly dividend for engine development products. They wanted to obtain authorization to use the engine, but they were directly asked by Chu River refused.

This can be said to be a very high price, and with Goose Factory’s ability to collect money, if the games made using its engine become popular, there is almost no need to do anything every year, and the income of over [-] million will be sent to Tianhe Network. On account.

But Chuhe still refused, saying that Tianhe Network is not short of money, and the profit of over [-] million is the performance of Tianhe Network's removal of the three major cash cows of Gu Jian Qi Xia.

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds launches a new box and video, DNF launches a big gift package during some festival event, Commander releases a new SSR card, or some SSR card skins, and the money comes.

Moreover, if the authorization is given to Penguin, it is too troublesome to send a team to give them guidance.

Sitting in front of the computer, I took a look at the original painting of the main character that was sent. The overall performance was in a dark tone, with a black jacket, leather pants, and a hood like the Assassin's Door in Assassin's Creed.

In short, one word stands out: handsome.

'Pass' sent two words to the art director's communication, and Zhang Ke returned his attention to the computer.

"Free-style sandbox, destructible buildings, you can kill NPCs at will, but how to solve the mission goals?" Zhang Ke thought in his mind while holding his chin and looking at the complicated plan on the screen.

If you think about it, he still has a lot of work to do, not just solutions for the new game settings, new gameplay ideas, and other things.

In addition, the team's technology and experience must be gradually accumulated. Although everyone in the team is an old man with a lot of experience in the industry, the engine that everyone is more familiar with is U3D. Although there is training for the origin engine of Tianhe Network I understand, but I'm still not proficient.

Furthermore, no matter whether it is the senior management or the lower core personnel in the team, they used to make RPG games. This time they tried the new ACT type of game, which was also a big challenge for them.

But despite this, everyone is still very excited.

Including Zhang Ke, because at least here, there is no need to worry about being kicked out of the game before the game is finished, and here there is no need to worry that the game I made at the beginning will become a game with no bottom line.

…………

And when Zhang Ke was still discussing with the team about how to do the new type of ACT game.

Because of Chuhe's Weibo in China, players from all walks of life are already arguing.

At the beginning, Chuhe originally planned to make statistics to see what players think about the Chinese dubbing of "Red Dead Redemption".

As a result, a big controversy was triggered at once, and then the discussion turned into a "conspiracy theory" against Chuhe.

'Yes, it must be dubbed in Chinese, so it feels so good to play! '

"I want a chicken. It's a game with a western American story. Don't you think it's awkward to dub it in Chinese?"And domestic voice actors, huh, huh. '

'Fuck, why don't foreign countries have a rounder moon? Although the foreign voice actors are really good, are the domestic voice actors not bad?Never played in Jianghu?The voice actor dubbing in it is not good? '

"Mr. Chu, Brother Chu, Uncle Chu, please don't mess with these moths. It doesn't matter what Chinese dubbing or English dubbing is. I just want to play Red Dead Redemption as soon as possible." '

'It's a conspiracy, right?After the vote, Mr. Chu issued an official statement. Because of the request of the majority of players, and with an attitude of excellence, we decided to continue skipping votes for Red Dead Redemption and add Chinese dubbing. '

'Upstairs, don't flirt, and skip tickets?I just asked when Red Dead Redemption announced the release date. '

'Holy shit, not to mention that I haven't found out yet, the game hasn't even revealed the release date, and I see Mr. Chu posting on Weibo every day. '

'It must be a conspiracy!No more Chinese, please hurry up and get the game out, I don't want to continue playing Red Dead Redemption on Weibo. '

At the beginning, everyone was still discussing whether the addition of Chinese dubbing to Red Dead Redemption was good or bad, but soon they didn’t know what was going on, and the whole rhythm suddenly started to deviate. The next trap.

A huge "conspiracy theory" was launched, and at the same time, various domestic media also made headlines.

To sum it up in one sentence, that is, 'When will Red Dead Redemption come out? '.

　Damn, I used to see robots selling movies in DOTA2 and LOL posting advertisements, and now there are also people selling movies in private messages! ? ? ?
