#170 - Hi Si Ka Academy Awards (Please Order)
The reason why Tenghui's Doggy Paradise animation is having issues is simple.
In Tenghui's production plan, Doggy Paradise was only intended to be a 5-minute instant noodle anime per episode, and many of the scenes in the trailer, the characters' movements, were static, no different from a visual comic.
Therefore, players posted angrily:
"5 minutes per episode, are you trying to feed beggars?"
"I beg you to look at the sincerity of the Nekopara(Nekopara: Cat Paradise) next door, okay? Every episode is a full half hour of content, but you not only have a pitiful length, but even have a large number of static images."
"Look at this shoddy animation quality, I have to go watch the animation next door to wash my eyes."
"The production level of Taoyuan Township(桃源乡: Peach Garden) is simply a dimensionality reduction strike against you!"
......
The next day, a new post appeared on the NGA forum's [Game Scandal] section.
《Internal Employee Reveals: The End of the Doggy Paradise Project Team》
"You've all seen it, the Doggy Paradise game and animation have both flopped, but the reality is far worse than what the outside world knows.
Now, the office is filled with an atmosphere of disappointment and decadence, and the work within the team has basically fallen into a semi-paralyzed state.
The trailer released yesterday was actually a test, you can understand it as another form of screening.
Obviously, the reputation has already collapsed.
The big boss of the Interactive Entertainment Business Group has lost the last of his patience with the project,
The project team's head person in charge has officially stepped down, the project team will no longer recruit new people,
Everyone is panicking all day long, everyone is worried that they will be the next one to be laid off."
Comments below the post:
"You just saw the Youyi(游易: a company name) boss simulator team posting to complain about overtime, and you're forming a team to complain here?"
"I can't say any words of encouragement anymore, what you're making is just too far behind."
"Hurry up and run, buddy."
......
OnBilibili barrage website,
UP主(UP主: uploader) "Dimensional Observation Room's" video criticizing the Nekopara animation comment section has also turned into an ancient battlefield, being flooded/destroyed by netizens, and people who enjoy watching drama have begun to rewrite history:
"You're the one who found a bunch of experts who didn't understand anything to critically review the Taoyuan Township animation, right? Have you seen their score? Don't come out and embarrass yourself."
"Back then, if someone praised Nekopara a little, you'd tell them to think independently, and you always called yourself rational and neutral, you must have a problem with your brain!"
"Since you said that the Taoyuan Township animation's details can't be scrutinized, the emotional expression is superficial, and it's just making empty promises, then there must be many domestic animations with drawing quality far surpassing Nekopara, right?"
"Hehe, you mocked Taoyuan Huimeng(桃源绘梦: Peach Garden Dream) for winning a bunch of bad awards back then, but now they've become the biggest dark horse of the year, you actually wanted to mocked other peers for not even having the qualification to win bad awards, right? You're definitely a true fan."
"More than a month later, come back and look at the comment section, especially the hot comments, it's really hilarious."
"Everyone, don't sort by time, have you collect vegetables from your island life? Have you done your working task of talking?"
Many animation media outlets that previously accepted Tenghui's money have also changed their tune:
《Taoyuan Huimeng Lets the Chinese Animation Industry Hold Its Head High》
《Nekopara May Be the Beginning of Truly Changing the Industry》
《China Finally Has a Dark Horse That Can Compete with Island Nation Animation》
There's no way around it, although the payment for articles that Tenghui gives is very tempting, they also have to maintain the reputation and credibility of their own media, after all, they can still tell the difference between a full meal and having full meals every day.
And the "High-Ska Awards" official Weibo announced that the Nekopara animation was nominated for this year's [Best Stocking Animation of the Year] selection.
In the nominated comments, the judges wrote passionately:
"We evaluate whether a stocking film is good to use... oh no, I mean, good to watch, mainly based on the following aspects.
First, the luster and texture of the stockings.
Luster is the soul of stockings. Previously, many domestic animations used too casual and clumsy lighting, blurring them into one piece, making the stockings look very fake, forming the inferior effect of "greasy senior sister."
And Taoyuan Township uses the latest dynamic light and shadow technology,
Everyone, pay attention, Illya's white stockings and Sophia's black pantyhose,
Under the lighting of sunlight and indoor lighting, the real fabric texture and drawing texture can set off different degrees of softness and silkiness, as if tempting you to explore them.
Second, the see-through feel of the stockings.
Stockings themselves are not attractive, what is attractive is that they are attached to the girls's thighs, showing a sense of sexiness and mystery in the form of partially hidden.
Therefore, the degree and effect of see-through feel are very important.
Too little see-through is boring, too much see-through is a bit too vulgar.
And Taoyuan Township does a very good job in this regard.
In the third episode of the animation, when the three cat girls pounced on hamster John, the cat girls who fell upside down had their shoes flinged away, revealing their小嫩jio(小嫩jio: tender feet) wearing stockings.
This frame is very worth tasting... oh, I mean, appreciating.
First, let's look at Illya's feet, full of see-through feel, each round little toe is very distinct, the thin white silk is like milk covering it, if you have eaten milk-flavored white chocolate beans, you will naturally know what I am talking about.
Let's look at Niki's feet, thicker socks wrapped around the fleshy soles of her feet, but the voile lace pattern opens a few screen window for viewing, adding a bit of sexiness to this holy beautiful feet.
Let's look at Sophia's feet last.
Do you know which part of a girl's beautiful feet black silk set off the most?
That's right, it's the heel!
The roundness and firmness of the stockings stretched thin is like covering a layer of chocolate crust.
As for whether milk flavor ice cream or cocoa flavor ice cream is better...
My comment is that I want them all."
......
Once this Weibo post was published, it was quickly reprinted byLSP(LSP: perverts), and in less than half a day, the number of reposts exceeded 10,000.
"Damn, no wonder it's the High-Ska Awards, the analysis is professional."
"Mua, you made me hungry. Putting everything else aside, I have to support this animation just for this review."
"Taoyuan Township has this technology, when will they enter the dark animation industry?"
As this post continued to be reposted and spread, the number of following the series continued to soar, soon breaking the 150,000 mark.
......
September 21st, Wednesday.
On the Baidu Tieba(贴吧: forum) of "Free Talking Life", a new post appeared.
《If the story in the game happens in reality, what will you do?》
The poster's ID is "Land Feather Demon".
The post reads as follows:
"Many brothers have played the part where you work at Shenyi Company, right?
To be honest, when I played that part, my blood pressure was really high, but fortunately I scolded a cool with talking.
However, can I tell you that there are even more outrageous things in reality?
A game producer in a large company has been acting inhumanely for many years, constantly occupying the labor achievements of interns, constantly suppressing andPUA(PUA: psychological manipulation) subordinates, and excluding dissidents at every turn, and unreasonably dismiss.
He even take possession of a 50-page game plan hard work written by his interns, and promoted as a result.
Taking someone else's road to success and leaving them with no way to go sounds unbelievable, right? But it did happen, even more outrageous than the game plot,
After all, game stories need logic, and the chaotic real world doesn't need logic."
Subsequently, the poster continued to attach a series of evidence in the following floors for expose.
First, some screenshots of internal work emails with the suffix @gameease.com.
The email content shows that a certain leader surnamed Zou (the last two characters of the name are masked) clearly stated that he would use the 《XX Simulator》 game plan of an employee surnamed Mo, and promised that he would co-sign with the employee surnamed Mo to publish it.
However, in the next public meeting record of the group's internal review meeting, the project establishment of 《XX Simulator》 was approved, and the only person who proposed the plan was the leader surnamed Zou.
That's not all, the evidence that the poster continued to post made people's blood pressure suddenly soar.
