Chapter 9 9. Of course it's to steal people!

The size is long and the inch is short. As for the small company pokeni, the original painting is very strong. After all, the president himself is from the original painting, so there must be nothing to say about the control of the picture and the character design.

Before Qing Zhiyuan traveled through time, pokeni's art team was already very good.

Then, hardware engineers are also very good.

The program is so-so, but it is enough in this era of neon. It can run the game smoothly, and it can also meet the current planning needs, at least not too much.

But pokeni's music has always been a shortcoming.

The founder himself didn't pay much attention to game music, not to mention that the time of game soundtrack intervention is often relatively late, and the importance of the game will be ignored intentionally or unintentionally. After all, you can still play without music, but if the game If the art and program are too bad, that's a blocking bug.

At the beginning, the company hired a few people to be the company's soundtrack, and set up a sound effects team, but later in the process of making games, it was found that it might be more cost-effective to outsource, so this department was axed.

Now Qingzhiyuan has asked people to find several outsourcers, which is the limit that pokeni can afford at present, but the demos sent back, I have listened to them several times and I don’t feel much.

Demo, refers to the sample. After simple communication and before signing the contract, the soundtrack company will ask Party A to make some short samples of the following soundtrack according to Party A's needs. The duration of these samples may only be about ten seconds. The appearance is mainly to reflect the strength of the soundtrack company and whether it meets the needs of Party A.

Just like when you want to buy apples sold by a company in bulk, you always want to try a few to see how they taste.

Qing Zhiyuan listened to several companies, and sent back a total of more than ten samples, but still felt a little dissatisfied.

This is not the fairy sword in his mind, oh no, Onmyoji.

To be honest, the picture quality and game performance of the DOS version of "Sword" were not very good, but the soundtrack was still very good, and it also laid the foundation for the future martial arts-style soundtrack, which can be said to be a pioneering work.

……

"Is there any other music outsourcing?" Qing Zhiyuan put down his earphones and raised his head to ask.

Standing in front of him was a slender girl.

The company's HR Akane Ayase.

26 years old this year.

To be honest, most of the girls in Neon are petite, and it is really rare to be able to grow to 1.7 meters like Akane Ayase.

Even among the men in the company, this girl can be described as standing out from the crowd.

Fortunately, Qing Zhiyuan's height is not bad, he is of mixed Chinese and Japanese, and now he looks 178.

Hearing the president's question, Akane Ayase replied with a sad face, "The others are not as good as these."

She did her best. After the bubble era ended, many music outsourcing companies closed down. It’s good that there are still some alive. The president is still picky.

but……

Akane Ayase didn't understand herself. Since she was an HR, when did she start working on music and sound effects?

But in fact, Akane Ayase is at least acting as a contact person. After all, HR usually does the job of screening resumes, and people in the industry still know a lot.

"President, actually it sounds good to me. Listen to this drumbeat, boom, boom, boom." Akane Ayase put on her earphones and hummed along.

When she noticed the president's cold gaze, she silently took off the earphones.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." The little HR stood aside obediently, "Actually, I'm a sound idiot, and I don't have aesthetics at all."

Qing Zhiyuan glanced at her contemptuously, this is not a matter of music aesthetics at all.

Earphones are such a personal thing, just like toothbrushes, how can they be worn casually?

What should I do if I wear it wrong?
Qing Zhiyuan didn't speak, but closed his eyes and thought silently.

There are many soundtrack masters of Neon, but the asking price is very high, and many of them are even the royal soundtracks signed by the company, and they will not do things for other companies.

"Are you going to find a senior like Hisaishi Joe?"

Akane Ayase complained.

I'm just a small HR, why doesn't the president directly recruit a few professionals?
"Eh?"

Originally, Akane Ayase was just saying angry words to make the president back out of difficulties, and it was enough to choose a similar one among these demos, but she didn't expect that this guy opened his eyes suddenly, which shocked her.

The little HR took a step back, "President, don't be surprised. I'm timid. I was talking nonsense just now. I'll contact someone to see if there are other game soundtracks."

"No, you're right." Qing Zhiyuan raised a hand and interrupted her.

He thought of a person.

"Nani? President, do you really want to invite Joe Hisaishi?!" Akane Ayase widened her eyes in horror.

"No, it's not." Qing Zhiyuan shook his head, "Qianjiang, help me find out if there is a person named Bai Chuan Atsushi."

Akane... sauce?

Akane Ayase was stunned for a moment, she didn't seem to expect that the president would call her by such an affectionate name, seeing Qing Zhiyuan's handsome face, she couldn't help but feel a deer bumping in her chest.

Akane Ayase was a little confused, "Atsushi Shirakawa? I haven't heard of it."

There are many masters of Neon's soundtrack, but Akane Ayase really doesn't have the slightest impression of Atsushi Shirakawa.

……

Many people are unfamiliar with the name Shirakawa Atsushi, but when it comes to his other name, I believe everyone will know it——

Tianmen.

If Hayao Miyazaki owns Joe Hisaishi is a match made in heaven, then Tianmen is equivalent to his Joe Hisaishi for the later animation industry leader, wallpaper madman, and train idiot Makoto Shinkai.

Many of Makoto Shinkai's works have soundtracks created by Tianmen, a young man named Atsushi Shirakawa.

For example, "She and Her Cat", "[-] Centimeters per Second", "The Kid Who Chased the Stars"

Tianmen's composition clearly shows his proficiency in the sound, picture and healing music. The melodious melody of the piano and strings is pure, quiet, beautiful and refreshing. The soundtrack made by Makoto Shinkai has touched the hearts of countless young people.

If Qing Zhiyuan remembers correctly, this person should be on the way to find a job now.

Akane Ayase turned around and left the president's office, and it took less than an hour to bring accurate news.

"President, I have been contacted, but the other party said that they seem to have intentions to go to other companies."

How can it be repaired!
"Ayase-san, let's go now." Qing Zhiyuan got up to get his coat.

"In the past? Where are you going?" Akane Ayase stared at her big eyes, completely unable to understand what the president said.

Moreover, I used to call Akane-chan when I needed it, why did it change to Ayase-san now?
"It's better to act than to be excited, of course to rob people!"
