On the first day of the new year, Xu Rui woke up from bed, there were some firecrackers outside the window. He opened the curtains and saw that Xiaoxue had stopped, the outside world was wrapped in silver, and all kinds of frosty days competed freely.

Walking out of the room, the orange cat at home was still asleep. Hearing Xu Rui's movement, he only moved the end of his tail to show understanding.

Next door, Yi Qianqian's room is silent, and it looks like she stayed up again last night.

In the end, the number of online people at the New Year's Festival was fixed at 12 million at around nine o'clock, which is more than three times the number of people online on weekdays.

In just one night, Chuyin Video Network had two million more registered users, of which 120,000 were authenticated users and 500,000 paid users.

Under the hot search topic on Weibo, a large number of passers-by said that the New Year's Festival was made with a high standard and sincerity. This barrage website is also quite novel. In contrast, the old websites like Tomato Video Network seem to be in addition to the content. Besides, the others seem to be a little behind.

Another hot spot is Hatsune Miku.

As soon as the virtual idol appeared, it swept the entire circle of animation lovers in China. Her cute and playful dance and distinctive voice captured a large number of fans.

For the Azhai who change their wives every season, Hatsune Miku has simply satisfied all their fantasies about girls: cute, can sing and dance, never grow old, and will not be constrained by the plot, the most important thing is , Able to use her own hands to create her future.

After the announcement of Hatsune Miku's official website, the number of visits that night exceeded 5 million, and the trial version downloaded more than 3 million copies. There were even too many downloads and the page was unable to respond. Because the trial version did not have much Encrypted, so in the post bar, forums, and even major portals, there are corresponding diversion download packages available.

Xu Rui glanced at his phone. In the work group, the employees of Hatsune Music Studio posted a screenshot. This is the predetermined number displayed in the background. The regular version of Hatsune Miku has already had more than 100,000 pre-sales, while the premium version has two. Ten thousand pre-sales, this is just one night's data.

From the perspective of the payment rate, this ratio is already very good. Xu Rui never expected that China would have so many willing to buy a sound synthesis engine. His original psychological expectation for the first work of this work was only 300,000 copies in total. It’s just sales.

The price of a volume of Huaxia Blu-ray Disc is between 500 and 900 yuan. It is distinguished from the included special code and the number of episodes. Although the price is different, it is basically not cheap.

The first volume of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" is priced at 648 yuan and contains three episodes. The bonus is ordinary postcards, and the premium is not high.

Calculating this way, the price of buying a complete set of CDs is about the same as buying a premium version of Hatsune Miku, which does not seem to be very expensive.

After Xu Rui made breakfast, Yi Qianqian's door slowly opened. She wore a thick cat pajamas and walked out rubbing her eyes.

When the fat orange cat moved its ears, he immediately got up from the nest, stretched his body and stepped on to Yi Qianqian's feet in two steps, rubbing her trouser legs with the end of the tail.

Yi Qianqian squatted down and touched the orange cat's chin. The little fat man immediately collapsed on the ground and turned out his belly. The gurgling sound was like a tractor starting.

"Come for breakfast."

Xu Rui greeted, poured two glasses of milk and sat down.

Yi Qianqian still didn't go back to her hometown this year. If she wasn't convinced that she had ever heard her talking on the phone with her family, Xu Rui would doubt if she had a conflict with her family and ran away.

Turning on the TV and watching the special Spring Festival program, the two finished their breakfast tacitly.

After that, the two took out the game console produced by Soren Company and played a two-player game of cooperative clearance.

In addition to making animation, Xu Rui also pays close attention to the development of related industries, such as the game industry.

The host SN launched by Soren has reached the fourth-generation SN4. From Xu Rui’s play experience, it is no different from the previous generation of game consoles on earth. Moreover, SN4 is still a dual-purpose game console that can be carried out.

The content of the game is varied, with traditional role-playing games, gun-car ball and other entertainment games as the mainstay. However, due to the company's own reasons, most of the games are linear plots, and there are few open-world games. , Movie-style action-adventure games, commonly known as broadcast games, are even more blank.

Xu Rui certainly won't be totally unimpressed, but getting involved in the game field requires more capital and contacts. He can only think about it now.

Although console games are too early, mobile games can make Xu Rui think about it.

In fact, his previous income was divided into four parts, one of which was left to the mobile game industry.

Xu Rui commissioned an external investigation team to conduct a survey report on China's current mobile games. China's mobile game market is relatively lagging behind the host market. With the popularity of smartphones in the past few years, it has gradually emerged, following the first batch of relying on gravity sensing. Mobile games such as match 3, marbles, chess and cards are the current mainstream after the mobile games implemented by means of touch screen, etc., such as the Mahjong game "Girls of Sparrow God", which was previously animated by phantom electricity.

As for the card-drawing mobile game, although there is a rudiment of the card-drawing treasure chest, games close to the mature Krypton gold card-drawing mobile game in Xu Rui’s memory have not yet appeared.

In fact, for now, Xu Rui's safest way is to use the IP of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" to make a card-drawing mobile game, but he has other ideas.

The seven-day holiday on New Year’s Eve passed quickly. After the holiday, Xu Rui returned to the company. This year’s tasks were relatively arduous, including the film version of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" which will be released in July and will be released next year. , Plus game planning.

But when he first went to work, Xu Rui received a link from Liu Xueyan, which was a video from Chuyin Video Network.

The video picture is a Q version of Hatsune Miku. She is holding a green onion in her hand, constantly shaking and rotating. The background music of the video can be heard as an inaudible song sung by Hatsune, which seems to be from Northern Europe. This song repeats the fragment of Hatsune shaking the green onions, plus the incomprehensible but melody-model tune~lightnovelpub.net~ which makes people feel extravagant.

"Everything that should come will come."

Xu Rui sighed with emotion. On the earth, the song of scallion is one of Hatsune Miku's famous songs. It is famous for its brainwashing melody and pictures. Unexpectedly, there are people in this world who have made similar ideas.

Looking at the video introduction, the author of this song is called Shen Qianxiao, and I don’t know if it’s his real name. He said that the song was made with the trial version. Since the sound source of the trial version is not complete, there is no way to make it what he wants. The song, simply smashed, and got a song whose lyrics are completely unclear.

But he did not expect that it was this unintentional act that detonated the entire Hatsune Video Network. This video was released on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. In just two days, the number of clicks has exceeded one million, if it weren’t because today is after the year. On the first day of work, Xu Rui will probably see this video yesterday.

Xu Rui, who has experienced the creative wave of Hatsune Miku, understands that establishing a good relationship with creators is an important part of promoting Hatsune Miku in the future. Therefore, he immediately asked Liu Xueyan to contact the original author of this video.
