Reboot the age of gaming

Chapter 213 Sound Source Acquisition (Two Chapters in One)

Zhao Shanshan was very angry over there.

This liar even dared to lie to me!

And he came to show off his power to me, and he wanted to continue to lie to me!I can't stand it!

She originally thought that the other party lied and ran away, and there was no opportunity for interaction, but the other party didn't run away, and came back to provoke, so she couldn't bear it at all!

Message after message was sent like a cannonball.

Zhong Ming wasn't angry either, as long as he thought of Zhao Shanshan's angry message on the other side of the network cable, he thought it was very interesting.

Finally, Zhao Shanshan interacted for a while, and Zhong Ming didn't reply, probably because he was a little tired, so he stopped for a while.

Zhong Ming replied: "Really, with a voice, [-], you think about it, I am really a virtual idol."

Zhao Shanshan became even more angry: "I believe your evil! I'm anxious to tell you if you bring this up again. Did you hear that? What kind of producer are you? You are obviously my colleague!"

Zhong Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Who is as boring as you? If you cheat a person with 300 yuan, can you maintain food and clothing?"

"You can control it! Besides, I lied to the money from the bottom of my heart, and I don't expect this to eat!" Zhao Shanshan's reply was full of arrogance.

"I just want you to experience the feeling of being deceived. Now think about those people who were deceived by you. They are all as angry as you." Zhong Ming replied.

Zhao Shanshan snorted: "Sure enough, you are someone else who came to take revenge on me!"

Zhong Ming: "I'm serious. Come to dub a voice. Not only will the original 500 yuan be refunded, but you will also be paid at least [-] yuan. If the effect is good, there will be more."

"Fifty thousand for dubbing? How can there be such a good thing, I don't believe it!"

Zhao Shanshan still didn't believe it, but Zhong Ming repeatedly emphasized that she was also a little shaken.

According to what Zhong Ming said, Zhong Ming didn't intend to lie to her deliberately, but just to teach her a lesson, otherwise he wouldn't have cheated her of money to block her and then added her back.

"How about this, I'll buy you a round-trip ticket, and you come to Ming'an City. Does Zhihuan Technology know? Go there directly, now you won't be afraid of being cheated, right?" Zhong Ming said.

There was no reply from Zhao Shanshan, but he was probably searching for what Zhihuan Technology is.

After 5 minutes, it is estimated that it was found.

Zhihuan Technology has a lot of information on the Internet. As a company with a considerable influence in the field of artificial intelligence, it is relatively well-known.

Zhao Shanshan sent an address: "Is this Zhihuan Technology?"

Zhong Ming: "Yes, it is here."

Zhao Shanshan was shocked and said: "You are the boss of Zhihuan Technology? Didn't you say that you are a game maker?"

Zhong Ming was speechless: "I cooperate with Zhihuan Technology, and the virtual idol is made by them."

Zhao Xingshan fell into thinking again.

She was very worried before, what if she was retaliated against when they met?
Now that we are meeting in the office building of Zhihuan Technology, don't worry about it. After all, Zhihuan Technology is such a big company with a head and face. If something happens, Zhihuan Technology can't afford to lose this person.

Afraid that she would not believe it, Zhong Ming took a screenshot of the electronic contract, coded part of it and sent it over.

"This is a contract signed with Zhihuan Technology."

Zhao Xingshan looked at the contract for a long time.

It seems... is quite real.

Of course, it may also be a P-picture, but if you just meet at Zhihuan Technology, there should be no problem.

"Then... meet at the gate of Zhihuan Technology, you must pay me back my 500 yuan in person!" Zhao Shanshan said.

Zhong Ming was speechless, why was he still thinking about the 500 yuan at any time!
"Okay, I'll pay you back when we meet."

"That's fine. I'm in Ming'an City. I'll take a taxi there tomorrow, and you'll have to reimburse me for the fare! Let me tell you, if you lie to me again, I'll definitely kick you hard after we meet, do you hear me?"

Zhao Shanshan also sent a "super fierce" emoji.

The two made an appointment to meet at the office building of Zhihuan Technology at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and there was no reply after that.

Zhao Shanshan scratched his head: "How do you feel, it seems that he was tricked? I was only cheated of 500 yuan, but now I have to meet him in order to get back the 500 yuan?...Forget it I'll go and have a look tomorrow, if he dares not to pay me back, I'll kick him!"

……

The next day, afternoon.

Zhong Ming arrived at Zhihuan Technology 10 minutes earlier, and Yang Chengye went downstairs to greet him.

"Have you found a suitable voice actor?" Yang Chengye asked at the first sentence when he saw Zhong Ming.

Zhong Ming nodded: "Yes."

Previously, Yang Chengye was about to find a way out, but after finding more than a dozen voice actors, Zhong Ming was not satisfied.

The point is, there are actually not many voice actors in the Huaxia circle, and the choice of famous ones is even more limited. As a result, Zhong Ming was not satisfied after searching all over, so what's the point?
Fortunately, Zhong Ming told him this morning that he had found a voice actor, and he would come over to try it out this afternoon, of course Yang Chengye was happy.

In fact, in the end, what kind of motion capture actor and sound source should be used for the role of Chanel mainly depends on Zhong Ming's opinion.

On this point, Yang Chengye is quite sensible. He knows that the character of Chanel became popular because of Zhong Ming's character design, so it must be Zhong Ming who has the deepest understanding of this character design.

If Zhong Ming had chosen the sound source, as long as it wasn't too outrageous, Yang Chengye would agree directly.

After waiting for a short time, Zhong Ming received a message: "We're at the door, where are you?"

Zhong Ming sat in the lobby, and after receiving the message, he looked towards the main entrance and saw Zhao Shanshan.

The weather outside was relatively cold, so Zhao Shanshan wore a thin white down jacket. Even though he was wearing jeans in winter, he could see that his legs were slender and straight, too thin, and he was indeed young, very young.

It's not ugly, which surprised Zhong Ming!
Generally, online scammers like this have nice voices and ugly looks, otherwise why bother to be scammers? Wouldn’t it be good to be an anchor?

But Zhao Shanshan is obviously a beauty embryo. Although it gives people a feeling that they are a little bit young, but walking on the road is definitely the type with a high rate of turning heads. It is more like the word "pure" that is used badly in many novels. "School Flower", there is also a kind of cute feeling.

Zhong Ming said, this...the contrast between the real person and the online image is a bit big...

In Zhong Ming's impression, I thought this girl was an Internet addict similar to Chanel, not to mention tattoos, leather jackets and the like, why don't you wear a pair of ripped jeans?

There were no results, but it gave people a very sensible and polite feeling...

Zhong Ming greeted him: "Zhao Shanshan? I'm Zhong Ming, and this is Yang Chengye, the vice president of Zhihuan Technology."

Yang Chengye smiled and said: "Hello, hello, you are the voice actor invited by Mr. Zhong, please."

Zhao Shanshan looked suspiciously at Zhong Ming, then at Yang Chengye.

Could it be true?

If Zhong Ming is the only one, then Zhao Shanshan may have to be suspicious, after all Zhong Ming looks too young.

But Yang Chengye is the vice president of Zhihuan Technology after all. He is mature and prudent. Judging by his attire and his calm appearance, he doesn't look like a liar.

Zhao Shanshan followed the two to the headquarters building of Zhihuan Technology.

On the way to the dubbing studio, Zhao Shanshan poked Zhong Ming secretly: "Where is my 500 yuan!"

Zhong Ming Yile: "Why are you in a hurry, try to dub a voice first, if the dubbing satisfies me, I will give you 500, do you still care about the [-]?"

Zhao Shanshan was not happy: "I have to give [-], and you have to give [-]!"

"All right, all right, I'll give you one piece when the time comes." Zhong Ming was speechless, this little money fanatic.

Soon, we arrived at a dedicated dubbing studio.

Dubbing requires an absolutely quiet environment, so the entire studio is completely soundproofed.The staff stuffed Zhao Shanshan with a script, which was written by Zhong Ming in advance.

Zhao Shanshan looked at the lines and was at a loss.

"Play games to win!"

"Rules are meant to be broken!"

"Only those who pursue persistently and obtain happiness from it are successful!"

“This is so imba!”

"It's time for Chanel to appear!"

There are not many lines, just a few sentences in total, the staff said: "How about it, you can start when you are ready."

Zhao Shanshan was pushed into the recording studio by the staff with a confused face. In front of him was a professional microphone worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Outside the recording room, several staff members were wearing headphones, fiddling with various audio tracks, and cooperating with the radio.Zhong Ming and Yang Chengye were also standing behind, waiting to hear the effect of the dubbing.

Seeing Zhao Shanshan's bewildered look, Yang Chengye felt a little guilty, this doesn't look like a professional voice actor!
"Mr. Zhong, tell me the truth, isn't this a professional voice actor? Where did you find it?" Yang Chengye asked.

Zhong Ming: "Online."

"No dubbing experience?"

"I have no dubbing experience, but I have rich experience in how to control my own voice."

Yang Chengye: "..."

He didn't know where Zhong Ming found such a treasure. He didn't even have dubbing experience, so it seemed unreliable at all!

But it's all here, let her try it.

Zhao Shanshan looked outside at a loss, and the staff gave her an OK sign, indicating that she could start.

Zhao Xingshan coughed twice, and said into the microphone, "The purpose of playing games is to win!"

The staff frowned.

How is it like reading a text aloud!
Zhao Shanshan was probably a little nervous, and there was no ups and downs in reading this sentence.

Yang Chengye looked at Zhong Ming.

Zhong Ming turned on the microphone outside to communicate with the soundproof room: "Don't be restrained, just act in your true colors."

Zhao Shanshan said angrily inside: "You haven't even shown me the character!"

"Oh, is that right, that's fine, let me play the character again and watch the screen." Zhong Ming said.

The staff wiped the sweat from their brows, pulled out a video of Chanel, and showed it to Zhao Shanshan.

Zhong Ming said to Zhao Shanshan inside: "Be fierce! Think about the vigor you have when you play games to insult people! You have to show the competitiveness of Internet addicted girls! And the sly feeling when you cheat people! Match it well, or if you are busy today, you won't get the 5 yuan, and the 500 yuan will not be returned to you!"

Zhao Shanshan yelled angrily: "How dare you! I'll fight you with my life!!"

Zhong Ming nodded: "Okay, just this emotion, hold on, and record!"

Yang Chengye wiped the cold sweat from his brow, this is the first time he has seen such dubbing...

However, from the two voices that Zhao Shanshan yelled just now, it can be heard that this person's voice is indeed quite plastic, the quiet state and the violent state sound like two people...

"Play games to win!"

"No, let go a little more!"

"play games……"

"Find your own feelings, or I'll go buy you fake wine!"

Zhong Ming constantly corrected Zhao Shanshan's dubbing outside.

Yang Chengye and several staff members were speechless beside him, it's really awesome, slowly it really becomes so interesting!

The most shocking thing is Zhong Ming's last sentence, can you even think of buying fake wine?What a talent!
In fact, strictly speaking, dubbing is a very professional industry, or an industry that is very dependent on talent.

There are so many good-speaking people in the world, but only a small group of them can be voice actors, and those who are really famous and have really played some classic roles are even rarer.

Voice actors are all monsters. One person can voice many kinds of characters, and they must also be full of emotions and speak at an appropriate speed. These are not things that can be achieved overnight.

Therefore, from the perspective of professional dubbing, although Zhao Shanshan's voice is excellent and his talent is also very good, but now he must be inferior to those professional dubbing actors, that's for sure.

But... Zhong Ming approached Zhao Shanshan not for dubbing, but for sound source collection.

The difference between dubbing and sound source collection is still very big.

Dubbing is to match a whole sentence, or several consecutive whole sentences. In this process, the ups and downs of the character's emotions must be considered, and the lip-synch must also be considered. For many first-time dubbed characters, different voice lines should also be considered. .

The sound source collection is to let the voice actor speak a lot of words and make a lot of sounds, and then use the special algorithm of artificial intelligence to combine them, so that the virtual idol can combine these sounds into complete sentences with the support of AI.At this time, it is very important to have the characteristics and recognition of the sound.

The previous voice actors also dubbed according to Chanel's characteristics, but it was not so natural, so Zhong Ming always felt that something was missing.

And Zhao Shanshan's personality is an Internet addicted girl, and she also likes to play pranks. If she can play the most real and natural state, then the voice recombined after collection may not be the most perfect, but it must be the most suitable .

These few lines now are just for Zhao Shanshan to find a feeling, Zhong Ming has finalized a certain feeling, and Zhao Shanshan just needs to act according to this feeling, which is not too difficult for her.

After tossing for an hour, Zhao Shanshan's mouth was dry.

But it can be seen that she seems to like this job!

Voice is the most powerful weapon for a professional scammer, and Zhao Xianshan has always been confident in his voice.

But in the past, it was just a small fight to deceive ignorant netizens, this time it is professional.

The more Zhong Ming listened, the more satisfied he became, um, almost.

At the beginning, Zhao Shanshan was a little nervous, too reserved, and couldn't let go of her voice. Now that she let herself go, she is getting closer and closer to Zhong Ming's imaginary Chanel's voice.

On the contrary, Yang Chengye became more hypocritical the more he listened: "Mr. Zhong, I thought it was pretty good before, why is it a little bit over now... What do you think?"

Yang Chengye asked the staff next to him.

These staff members are all engaged in sound source collection, and they can be regarded as professionals, and the results are mixed.

"I think it's pretty good, it's quite unique, and it's better than the previous seiyuu."

"I think it's a bit too much. It's not good if the voice is too recognizable. It's a niche, maybe some people don't like this tone?"

"She is matched with Chanel. If Chanel wants to have the same voice as an ordinary person, can it still highlight her characteristics?"

Several staff members did not reach a consensus.

But in general, Zhao Shanshan's voice must be fine!

Yang Chengye thought about it, in this case, let Zhong Ming make the decision, after all he is the designer.
