Chapter 123 - 121 Shooting Eagle's Music Samples

Li Yuanhang didn't pay much attention to the commercialization of Mirage Game Engine. After seeing that the newly established Mirage Technology Company had beaten EIN to a standstill and occupied most of the market share in China, he began to focus on the development of Shooting Eagle.

After the initial version of the original painting of the Shooting Eagle was severely criticized by Li Yuanhang, it was changed seven or eight times one after another before it finally achieved Li Yuanhang's desired effect.

For example, Guo Jing's original drawing is a reference to Huang Rizhua, but after many revisions, the original drawing and the image of the TV series of his previous life have been irrelevant, the look is not handsome and not ugly, a look is a simple and honest child.

The original painting of Huang Rong, Li Yuanhang initially intended to refer to the one in the 2016 version of the Shooting Eagle, but like Guo Jing, the more he changed it, the less it resembled, and in the end it was only enough to look almost the same.

If he continued to change it, Li Yuanhang was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist picking the original drawing from the very first version.

After the original drawing, except for the main characters and the maps of the Desert, Xiangyang, and Peach Blossom Island, the rest of the art was handed over to other art outsourcing teams.

The main characters and main scenery maps were naturally done by the applications in Game Development Thumb, and anyway, he had plenty of points now, and it wouldn't cost him much to do this.

As for outsourcing, Wang Xiqin found a total of five art outsourcing companies, these five outsourcing teams were responsible for some of the art resources, some were responsible for NPC modeling mapping, some were responsible for scene modeling mapping.......

There was also an outsourcing team that even only did branch plot quests, such as going to the bandits to save someone, running an errand for someone, helping an NPC solve a problem, completing a letter delivery, and so on.

After the art side was outsourced, since Mythology Network doesn't have a music department, the lead artist Wang Xiqin was responsible for contacting music studios to produce music, BGM and sound effects for the shootings, in addition to the art.

Music outsourcing does not require the employer to provide original drawings or anything else, just give the music studio their own conditions, and then make a few samples according to the conditions, the employer feels that it is not possible to continue to change, the employer feels that it is possible to follow these samples to make similar styles of music.

The first thing you need to do is to make a few samples.

After hearing this, Wang Xiuqin asked the music studio to redo it three times in a row, and only on the fourth time did she bring these music samples to Li Yuanhang's office.

"Boss, these are the music samples provided by the outsourcing side, do you think they're suitable for shooting?"

Li Yuanhang took the USB flash drive handed over by Wang Xiuqin and inserted it into the computer, the entire USB flash drive only five or six music format files.

Casually click on a music file, more than a hundred thousand worth of speakers began to pass out melodious pure music, Minyang side are hydroelectric, the sound is cold, but the resolution is very high.

This set of speakers is specially bought by Jiang Caiwei to give Li Yuanhang, in her words, thousands of dollars of speakers will listen to a loud, must be this top speakers to perfect resolution to restore the sound of music.

Li Yuanhang does not know too much about music, but just in case, he began to study music theory knowledge as soon as he had time, after all, there are super music masters, can't help but exchange a song or two from time to time, in case someone asks, can't always talk about someone else's work, right?

The music theory teacher is of course the Central Conservatory of Music's top student, Jiang Caiwei. Usually there's nothing to do in the evening, Li Yuanhang and Jiang Caiwei will get bored with each other through videos for a while, and then Jiang will start teaching Li Yuanhang music theory.

Jiang Caiwei asked Li Yuanhang why he suddenly wanted to learn this, Li Yuanhang replied that he wanted them to have a common language, so that they wouldn't know what to say besides the game.

Jiang Caiwei was naturally touched and sent kisses through the screen.

After a period of time, Li Yuanhang had already grasped some initial knowledge, and coupled with a good appreciation of music from his previous life, his learning progressed quickly, making Teacher Jiang addicted to being a good teacher.

After listening to all five samples consecutively, Li Yuanhang felt that these samples were not bad, the biggest problem was that these samples did not have distinctive characteristics, it felt okay to use them for martial arts games like Shooting Eagle, and it was not awkward to use them for urban games like GTA.

For example, many of Hu Weili's classic works like "Stealing Power" and "Song of the Smiling Proud Jiang Hu", even if you haven't seen the related movies and TV works, you can still imagine the grudge of a jianghu swordsman in your heart.

The only thing is that Li Yuanhang intended to craft this piece of work, so he naturally couldn't do anything rash with the music.

Li Yuanhang thought about it, even if these samples were to be handed back to the music studio and pushed to start over, it would probably be difficult to achieve the effect he expected, and said, "Sister Qin, let's say, I'll listen to these samples a few more times, and I'll give you a reply later."

"Okay," Wang Xiuzhen turned around and took a few steps, suddenly remembering something back and said, "Boss, um, isn't Xiao Qian on vacation recently, she has long wanted to see the Terracotta Warriors, I want to take a week off to accompany Xiao Qian to see the Terracotta Warriors."

When Li Yuanhang heard Xiao Qian's name, he hadn't seen much of this girl for a while, so he asked: "Sister Qin, Xiao Qian graduated from primary school this year, right?"

Wang Xiuqin nodded: "Yes, time flies so fast, before you know it, Xiao Qian will soon be a junior high school student."

"That's fine, Sister Qin you just take Xiao Qian on a good trip, you just have to deal with the company's affairs," Li Yuanhang said, "Right, Sister Qin you take Zixia along with you, it's just as well that the two little sisters can be companions."

After Connor and Li Ya Hui arrived in Huaxia, the first thing they did was to find a house and settle down, then with the help of Li Yuanhang, Li Zixia enrolled in the elementary school where Shen Yuqian studied.

With the inception of the Shootout, the full version of the Mirage game engine was so beloved by Connor that he offered to have it used on the Demeter side of the studio as well.

Li Yuanhang was fine with it, because for various reasons, Demeter Studio was directly under his own ownership and not part of the Mythic Network, but it was just as much his own property anyway, and it was only natural to use the full version of the Mirage Game Engine.

The technicians at the Demeter studio were used to other engines, and it would take some time for them to become fully familiar with and use the Mirage game engine, so Connor volunteered to go back to the Demeter studio to guide the work.

When Connor goes back, Lee Ah-oi plans to follow him back to the U.S. and help her parents deal with the industry along the way as well.

Because Li Zixia had just enrolled in school, she definitely couldn't just take time off before the holidays, so the couple left Li Zixia to Li Yuanhang, her uncle.

Although Li Zixia was very well behaved, but Li Yuanhang's work was really too busy, a lot of times she lived directly in her little sister Shen Yuqian's house, to and from school also together, simply inseparable BFFs.

Li Yuanhang hears that Wang Xiuqin wants to take Shen Yuqian on a trip, and without saying a word, he just throws Li Zixia to Wang Xiuqin.

Wang Xiuqin was also very fond of Li Zixia, and couldn't help but smile at the news: "I'm fine with it, and Xiaoqian will definitely be happy, but Zixia might complain that you're an incompetent uncle."

Li Yuanhang shrugged his shoulders: "Sister Qin, you know, I really don't have much time to take care of my children, so I'll trouble you to worry more, and you'll be reimbursed for all the expenses of this tour when you come back."

Wang Xiuqin smiled, "Then thank you BOSS."

After Wang Xiuqin left, Li Yuanhang remembered that the Mythical Network had set up a security department after Xu Lezhu came, and he remembered that a few of the security personnel were scouts inside the army, and although they weren't from any special forces, protecting Wang Xiuqin's three was completely sufficient.

Li Yuanhang called Xu Lezhu without saying a word, and asked her to send two scout-born security personnel, not requiring a high force value, but only requiring a clean and loyal reputation, to quietly accompany Wang Xiuqin and covertly protect their safety.

After re-listening to the music samples once more, Li Yuanhang looked at the time and estimated that Jiang Caiwei was in class, so he sent a message to her flymail, asking her to take a look at these music samples, along with sending this sample as an attachment.

Jiang Caiwei didn't know what she was doing and quickly replied, "I'll listen to the rest."

Ten minutes later, Jiang Caiwei sent a flyer to Li Yuanhang: "In terms of real music, these few samples can't even be considered passable, and it feels almost interesting to use them on a game."

Li Yuanhang replied, "Does it not feel like there are any features that can be used on any type of game?"

Jiang Caiwei: "Boss Li, your music appreciation is very strong, it seems that I'm not teaching you as a teacher for nothing."

Li Yuanhang extended the invitation: "Vivian, come to Minyang next Monday, you'll be the gatekeeper of the music for the shooting, along with the bidding for the Mythical Network's headquarters building will also start on that day, and you'll decide which proposal is the Mythical Network's headquarters building."

Jiang Caiwei gave a grinning expression and replied, "But don't, the Mythical Network is yours, it's still up to you to decide what the headquarters building will look like when it's built, I'm just here to watch the fun."

"You're the boss lady of the Mythical Network, you can suggest proposals for the headquarters building too!"

"Who's the boss lady now, I'm just a soon-to-be graduate of the Central Conservatory of Music and a minority shareholder of the Ocean Group."

"It's only a matter of time,"

"Fuck off calf, do you ever again believe that I'm calling on the entire audience to see you and kill you once inside Special Forces Elite?"

"If you kill me again, I'll say that Jiang Caiwei is the boss's wife of the Mythical Network! Big deal, I won't play this game anymore, and when I make a shooter game out later, I'll ban anyone who kills me!"

"Is there a boss like you?"

"There, you're encountering it now."

"........"
