Chapter 14: Young people, don't set your goals too high

Views:

After Du Ang left, Fang Zhao looked at the office carefully.

Aside from the desk and the microcomputer there, the most conspicuous thing is the row of bookshelves.

Nowadays, there are very few people who read paper books, but it is not all. Some people like the retro style, and some people just like the feel and look of paper.

There are about 10,000 books on the bookshelf in this office, some of them look new, and some have been turned so that the edges are fluffed. Perhaps because of the upgrade of the material, Fang Zhao did not see any missing or rotten pages. It is the books that have been turned over that have been replaced with new ones.

This bookshelf has gone through an unknown number of supervisors.

Fang Zhao glanced at it, most of them were books about virtual idols, ranging from the historical changes of virtual idols, to technological updates, to their morphological properties.

"The Concept of Virtual Idol and Its Cultural Characteristics", "Virtual Idol Somaesthetics", "On the Emotional Expression of Virtual Idols", "Analysis of Lei Zhe Space"...

Fang Zhao picked out a book that introduced the development of virtual idol culture and looked at it while sitting in an office chair.

The conditions of the office are much better than those on the black street, no one is disturbing, and there is enough light without turning on the lights and only opening the windows.

Turning the book page by page, the more he looked at Fang Zhao, the more he felt the difference in the entertainment industry in this era. The beginning of the virtual revolution is after the end of the apocalypse, in 206 of the new century, Lei Zhe, who is called the father of virtual idols by contemporary people, invented "Leizhe Space", and officially launched virtual idols on the star-studded stage. Next, compete with real stars and open up a real virtual prosperity.

"After the era of extinction, the world economy has recovered rapidly, and technology has developed rapidly. Digital technology is one of them. It digitizes all information in reality and reproduces it to people through vision, hearing and even other senses. It can also be synthesized through certain rules and methods. Pictures, texts, sounds, images that do not exist in the real world.

The virtual images synthesized by electronic technology are also the products of the visual era of human society. They have come out of the virtual world, standing in front of people alive, active on the big screen, and rejoicing in the venues. It is undeniable that Lei Zhe Space is undoubtedly an epoch-making invention…”

Fang Zhao looked at the introduction to Lei Zhe Space in the book and felt really amazing.

"Leizhe Space" is a virtual world. It is a composite application of physics and computer science created by Lei Zhe, who was known as the father of virtual idols in the new century three hundred years ago. Virtual idols are created from this application technology. of.

Three hundred years ago, Lei Zhe reformed virtual technology and created Lei Zhe space technology, so that future virtual technicians can create a virtual image better and more realistically.

"Leizhe Space" carries billions of colors, which is free from the limitations and disadvantages of projection space, making the dynamic effect of virtual idols more natural and smooth, ignoring the viewing angle, projected in the air, and at your fingertips.

In the words of the book, "The creation of virtual idols is a process of creating images in the virtual world and giving them vitality."

The virtual idols born in Lei Zhe Space continue to gain life from the minds of the behind-the-scenes staff and updated electronic technology.

Today, three hundred years later, the virtual technology has been improved countless times, making the virtual idol more perfect, but those new technologies are all completed on the basis of Leizhe Space. It can be said that Leizhe Space Technology is the new The cornerstone of century virtual idol technology, every person engaged in virtual idol technology must understand the technology.

Lei Zhe created "Lei Zhe Space" and opened up a prosperous world of virtual idols, but today, three hundred years later, Lei Zhe has long since left, and the virtual prosperous world is no more. This is not the reason of Lei Zhe Space, the key point is still people.

People are the masters of "Leizhe Space" and the hand of God who creates virtual idols!

If he could choose, Fang Zhao would be very willing to travel back to three hundred years ago to see what kind of era the virtual prosperity was mentioned in books and film and television documentaries.

When his thoughts returned to reality, Fang Zhao was in trouble. Technicians can be found, but first of all, we have to decide what kind of image he wants to create

The book says: "In Leizhe Space, you are like a painter holding a paintbrush, a sculptor holding a utility knife, creating your own dream."

The problem Fang Zhao is facing now is, even if he was given a pen and a tool knife, what would he draw? engrave what

Just when Fang Zhao was thinking hard, someone came to visit, but there were still three.

Arlin, the head of the arrangement department, Julian, the head of the operations department, and Bly, the head of the logistics department, came together.

"Tsk tsk, it's rare that there are people here again." Yaerlin raised his boneless fingers and pointed to a few corners of the office, "It's still space."

"It's alright, Fang Zhao, right?" The head of the logistics department, Bui, looked like he cared about the younger generation, "Don't worry, I'll have someone bring you a sofa tomorrow, and let me know if you need anything else, as long as it's not too difficult. I can do it for you."

"That's right, don't be polite to Bligh. He has a lot of money there. Just a little bit of money can help you handle these things." Julian laughed.

The three of them came over just curiously, and felt that it was inappropriate to throw such a foolish project to a rookie, not to mention that this rookie still achieved good results in the rookie competition. Isn't this bullying

Although he felt it was inappropriate in his heart, they would absolutely refuse to let them take over the project. Bligh only promised to compensate the party with materials, and did not dare to mention the project-related matters at all.

"Fang Zhao, I know you are a composition major, how much do you know about virtual idols?" Julian asked.

In terms of age, Fang Zhao is much older than Bligh among the three, but this body is young after all, and the three of them don't take the attitude of the younger generation seriously. As for Julian's question, Fang Zhao thought about it. Said: "Virtual idols, just like Xunhuai and Phyllis?"

The three of Julian were silent for a few seconds at the same time, and it was difficult for them to answer this.

After a while, Julian smiled and said, "Young man, don't set your goals too high, you will be disappointed if you set them too high."

Everyone knows that those two companies are good at making virtual idols, especially Lushan Shihua. As long as they are launched, they are all idols with millions of fans. Xunhuai, which was launched this year, is obviously a success, and has already started investing in films, and it will be even more popular in the future. Think about those virtual idols of their silver wings, how do you compare

"You don't need to reach the level of Xunhuai and Phyllis, sigh, just do your best. We don't blame you if we fail." Bly sighed.

Yaerlin on the side rolled his eyes, yes, they wouldn't blame Fang Zhao, but the attitude of the executives above is hard to say.

"Do you have any favorite virtual idols?" Fang Zhao asked.

"Of course!" Yaerlin was about to say something when he suddenly stopped and smirked, "Hey, it's all in the past, don't mention it."

Fang Zhao looked at Julian and Bligh again, who didn't want to talk.

"We just care about you coming to see, Fang Zhao, you are busy first, we have to go back to work." Bligh waved his hand and turned to go out.

"I have to go down too."

"Me too."

Julian and Yaerlin both fled, and Yaerlin secretly rejoiced after he walked out the door. Fortunately, he stopped talking. If he talks too much, Fang Zhao will create a virtual idol according to what he said, and he will also be the same when the project fails in the future. responsible.

Luckily fortunately!

After the three supervisors left, another person came over before Fang Zhao could read two pages of the book.

The person was in his thirties, with a shaggy beard, his palm-length hair was piled up in a mess on his head, and there were red marks on his face, probably from lying on the table while sleeping. This is what Duang said is the only employee in the department today.

"Hello, my name is Zuwen, I'm a technician in the virtual project department."

"My name is Fang Zhao, and I am now the producer of the virtual project." Fang Zhao raised his hand to signal Zu Wen to find a chair by himself.

Zu Wen didn't feel uncomfortable either, dragged a chair over and sat down, "I know you, it's spread throughout the department."

Fang Zhao knew that this "widespread" was definitely not because of the rookie game. Although the rookie game was very important to newcomers like them, it was not necessarily the case for the rest of the company. Therefore, the reason for the spread can be imagined.

The pit of the virtual idol project was stuffed to a newcomer in the composition department. The whole Silver Wing knew about it. Some people in the company's internal network were discussing it hotly.

"Now the whole project is really just the two of us?" Fang Zhao asked.

"Yeah, it's just the two of us now," Zu Wen said indifferently. "There were originally three. I heard that you were coming over in the morning, so I temporarily applied for transfer and went to other departments."

Before Fang Zhao came, it was true that there was only one person left in the virtual project department. There were four before the morning. Since the virtual project invested by the company failed last year, there is no one to manage the virtual project. The last supervisor The co-producer is still lying in the hospital. It is said that he was hit. He was depressed and had too many complications. He stayed in the hospital to recuperate and has not been discharged yet, but they don't know what the real situation is.

Anyway, no one cares here. They are like sheep. They come to check in every day, sleep, surf the Internet, play games, and get off work at the end of the day.

Now when they heard that the project was going to start, the three people were scared away.

"Why did you stay?" Fang Zhao asked again, "Everyone else left, why did you choose to stay?"

"I didn't have time." Zu Wen yawned, "If you want to transfer out, you have to write an application. I fell asleep in the middle of the morning and only wake up now."

Fang Zhao: "..." No wonder Du Ang saw that Zu Wen didn't swear during work hours, probably because he was afraid that the last one would be scolded and there would be no one here.

Seeing Zu Wen yawning constantly, Fang Zhao suddenly asked, "Are you chasing stars?"

"You mean those virtual reality idol stars who are now active on the Internet?"

"More than that, those in the past are also counted."

"If that's the case, I'm not chasing stars." Zu Wen grinned white teeth, "because I'm a 'Leizhe Space' technician."

Fang Zhao remembered that it was mentioned in the book I just read that most of Leizhe space technicians have a mentality: what I create is what I pursue, what other people create is just an idol in other people's hearts, and my idol, Must come out of my own hands!
