Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 349: Same Heart, Different Paths (Twenty)

The scriptwriter's location is Chunliu District, while she is in Xiahe District. They are far apart, so how can they meet?

As he was thinking, Wei Youmeng glanced at his schedule, which was already filled with various things.

Not long after, the script lady sent a file, which was the script for the first episode of "Dark Chaser".

She took a quick look at it, thought there was no problem, and started making the card image.

If we follow the traditional method, each of the 24 frames per second needs to be drawn separately. Although the work can be interrupted in the middle and continued when the creative idea is restored, the workload is still huge. Therefore, most of the people who produce images are studios rather than individuals.

In the past two years, short dramas have become popular, but the quality is generally low. The workload and the requirements for the creators' card-making level have also been greatly reduced, which has led to the emergence of a large number of individual creators.

It is obvious that Wei Youmeng cannot be content with the status quo.

The new texture system she developed excels at dynamic calculations, which means that it is only necessary to set the movement trajectory and camera position changes of each character without having to draw every frame.

Not long after, the graphics for the first episode of Dark Chaser were completed.

After a quick check and confirmation that there were no errors, she sent the script and image files to the agreed sound studio.

If nothing goes wrong, I will get the finished product the day after tomorrow. After reproducing it, I can sell it.

Scriptwriter Fu Cangzhao herself doesn't have time to study so many things. Her top priority now is to find someone to make some disposable bomb cards.

Using her identity as an author as a cover, she got to know several shops willing to make consumable cards in the name of collecting materials.

Among these shops, there was one whose name surprised her a little - "Phoenix Courtyard".

If I remember correctly, this is Wu Ruohuang's office.

She had heard that this man bought a villa at the junction of Chunliu District and Qingbai District after entering the city, and she heard that he exchanged it for astrology cards. The city has better cards, but it does not prevent collectors from collecting cards of different systems for comparative research.

Every outsider who receives an ID card will receive two weeks of training to gain a brief understanding of the city’s structure, behavioral norms, and the most basic card-making methods.

By the way, during those two weeks, Wu Ruohuang had asked her for advice on the technique of making cards without a pen. Because she had been using astrology cards for many years and her mental power was quite sharp, she could not stand the weird aura hidden in the inkless pen.

She doesn't rely on selling cards to earn Creation Points. She takes commissions from citizens in need and makes a living by completing them.

After repeatedly confirming that the place in front of him was Wu Ruohuang's Phoenix Courtyard, Fu Cangzhao finally walked in.

The door on the ground floor was always open. She walked around the living room. The space was very spacious. After searching with her spiritual sense for a long time, she only sensed the presence of Wu Ruohuang.

The sofa looked very comfortable, with two furry cushions on it. On the coffee table were a few small porcelain plates, some of which contained dried fruits and some of which contained mint candies.

Fu Cangzhao sat down on the sofa, picked up a piece of mint candy, peeled off the packaging and put it in his mouth.

The refreshing taste instantly fills the mouth and gradually spreads to the throat.

She frowned. Most people wouldn't feel anything about this candy, but it tasted particularly spicy in her mouth.

Unlike hot and sour noodles, which can cover up some of the spiciness with the sour taste, the sweetness that candy brings makes the spiciness even higher.

After a few seconds, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she ran to the water dispenser and poured a cup of warm water, barely suppressing it. Until then, a figure came downstairs slowly, and asked as he walked: "Hello, sir, what kind of commission do you want to issue? Looking for something or looking for someone? Or -"

Fu Cangzhao faced her, removed the illusion covering his face, and said, "Long time no see, Wu Ruohuang."

"It's you, little brat?" Wu Ruohuang chuckled, and the corners of her eyes suddenly showed a playful look. "Aren't you wanted by the whole city? Why are you here?"

"I'm here to seek refuge." Fu Cangzhao said.

"Stop joking, tell me what's going on." Wu Ruohuang was dismissive of Cangzhao's words. When passing by her, she slapped her from behind, hitting her right on the buttocks.

It feels softer and more elastic than last time. It seems that the little brat has gained weight again.

Turning around, Wu Ruohuang felt very happy when she met Fu Cangzhao's angry eyes.

Thinking back to when the other party brought her into the card city, she thought this person was very reliable, but it turned out to be just an underage kid. Isn't this going to be a good trick on him?
She didn't see Fu Cangzhao make any move, and the door to the Phoenix Courtyard closed by itself.

"It looks like you want to do something shameful and bad." For some reason, she was intrigued by this scene.

Life in the city was dull and boring, so she took a long vacation, but deep down she longed for excitement.

Will the little devil bring her a surprise? ——
The release of Dark Chaser was much better than expected.

Because it is a personal production, the Image Association will not strictly review it, and the price is that it cannot enter the Image Theater and can only be sold in the Image Market. If it is a formal Image Card that has been reviewed, it will be shown in the Image Theater for a period of time, and a special window will be opened in the Image Market. The audience will go to buy it if they think it is collectible.

There is a saying in the underworld: small workshops produce high-quality materials. Wei Youmeng's masterpiece is the best interpretation of this saying.

This set of card images is in serialized form, and should be read together with Ming Du Chen Cang's novel of the same name.

Perhaps because the performance was too good, the scriptwriter's writing style, which was almost dull, was praised as "cold and clean". Wei Youmeng did not comment on this, as long as her efforts could be recognized.

However, just when she was preparing to expand sales, the manufacturer brought bad news - the existing replica machines were completely unable to analyze the texture of the master copy, which meant that her image cards could not be mass-produced!

The problem is not difficult to solve. She can handle the workload alone and adopt a limited sales strategy to the outside world.

But out of some intuition, Wei Youmeng felt something was wrong, but this ominous premonition was completely suppressed by his joy.

The scriptwriter gave the general idea of ​​the second episode, and the specific storyboards were still left to Wei Youmeng. The two were discussing heatedly when a call window suddenly popped up on the screen projected by the optical computer.

Wei Youmeng didn't think much about it and accepted the video call request.

"Excuse me, are you the creator responsible for producing the "Dark Chaser" series of image cards?" The video interface showed an elegant face. Wei Youmeng recognized her. She was one of the "treasure hunters" of the Urban Image Association.

The "treasure hunter" is responsible for searching the video market for works that are not eligible to enter the video theater but have great potential, and communicating with the authors of these works.

Ordinary people were not qualified to know them, but the First Creator Academy in Xiahe District where Wei Youmeng was located was the highest level Creator Academy in the entire city. There were many selected seniors in the Image Department, and she had seen several "treasure hunters" who came in person to pick people up.

Am I going to be selected?

Wei Youmeng was overjoyed and quickly replied: "I designed the cards, but the script was written by me and another person..."
