nTROO Chapter 30 Pixel Factory

nChapter 30 Pixel Factory

nA strange group soon appeared before Zhou Yu. They were mainly made of monks, Taoists, Nuns, priests, exorcists, wizards, shamans, etc… all kinds of religious people.

nThere were around thirty of them, and all of them wore strange clothes. They didn’t look like an animation team at all. Instead, they looked more like a group of adventurers, who were ready to do some dungeon quests. Perhaps, even the most difficult dungeon would not be a problem for them.

nThe animation base was like a park with many small studios spread out in the park. Although it didn’t have any big buildings like the game company did, its environment was much better. With all kinds of flowers and plants, it looked more like a beautiful holiday resort.

nSoon, those religious people began to spread out in the park, playing kite, showing off their romantic love relationships, playing tai chi, using the exercise equipment, it looked like a park even more.

nWith its size as big as a millstone, it was the biggest scale model so far. So when moving it into the toolhouse, it took Zhou Yu a great effort.

n

n

nLooking at the messy toolhouse seemed to have become slightly crowded, Zhou Yu decided that when he received the money from the game portal, he would sort out a bigger room to keep all those important buildings.

nThe basic animation base could only be equipped with one statue. A small open space had already been reserved in the small square in the center of the animation base. There were similar places in the game company as well. However, because he didn’t have any statue for the game company, so at the moment, it was left empty.

nPlacing the statue in the middle, it fit into the slot perfectly. According to the carpenter beaver, he twisted the statue, so it could be locked in there. This type of mechanism also amazed Zhou Yu.

nAfter the statue as placed, it suddenly glowed a strange light. Then the entire park became vibrant. All the religious people began to surround the statue while cheering out loud as if they had obtained some kind of mysterious power.

nIn terms of the property management company. Surprisingly, he was able to get a Prosperous Green Grass property management company during the first try. It would be able to increase the fashion indicator of the animation base by 20 points.

nNow that all the necessary elements of the animation base had been provided, it could finally be formally opened. Upon opening the practitioner’s studio, Zhou Yu learned that it was able to produce three tiers of animations. It was the same as the game company.

nThe same as before, he wanted to check the quality of each tier one by one.

n

n

nTier one animation costs: Movie (50 Moe coins, 30 Pixel points) TV series (3 Moe Coins and 2 Pixel points per episode) maximum 5 small beast cards, 10 mood points.

nTier two animation costs: Movie (150 Moe coins, 90 Pixel points) TV series (9 Moe Coins and 6 Pixel points per episode) maximum 10 small beast cards, 30 mood points.

nTier three animation costs: Movie (250 Moe coins, 150 Pixel points) TV series (15 Moe Coins and 10 Pixel points per episode) maximum 15 small beast cards, 50 mood points.

nDifferent to the game company, small beasts card became optional here. Instead, the necessary element was replaced with pixel points. Originally, he thought that it would require him to add some elite beast cards like “The Filming Lion”. But it seemed like he was wrong.

nHe already knew about the pixel points from the cormorant fisherman. After processing the fish of the ACG world, he would receive some pixel points. But he needed to have the pixel factory first.

nThis greedy system!

nThe pixel factory blueprint cost 500 Moe Coins, plus the construction fee of 100 Moe Coins, another property management company and recruitments, etc… It cost him 1000 Moe Coins in total. In the end, all his saving was only enough for making a tier one animation movie.

n

n

n‘Alas, I miss the days when I have 5,000 Moe Coins.’

nThe basic pixel factory was only able to process 30 fish per hour. One-star fish for one Pixel point, two-star fish for two Pixel points, and so on, the fish with the title – King attached to them would be doubled.

nFrom now on the fish he caught every day could be processed here into the necessary materials for making animations.

nIt was truly an interlocking setting!

nThe animation director had the highest status in the animation base. Not only did he own a private mansion, but everyone also had to call him master respectfully whenever they met him.

nThis made Yang Kuai feel very satisfied. With his hands clasped behind his back, he was wandering in the animation base. Clearly, he wanted to cause “troubles” for other employees.

nThe same as the game company, after clicking the tier-one animation movie, it didn’t start straight away. Instead, it also spat out a piece of paper.

n

n

nThen it was time to fill the paper.

nTier one animation movie:

nBased on The Flaming Mountain arc of Journey To The West;

nDuration 2 hours;

nAnimation director – Yang Kuai;

nAnimation team – a sacred team of humorous practitioners;

nProduction time: 24 Hours.

n…………………………

nGao Shu was the person in charge of Brothel Taoist. The upper management of the company had high hopes for this new team, so they were very generous about the advertisement fund for this team.

nIn order to make this project successful, Gao Shu handed the teams, that he used to charge, over to the other people in his department. He felt like his future was here, so he wanted to focus on this team.

nThe department he worked at was very competitive. Whoever discovered a good team would not only be guaranteed to receive bonuses in the future, but their positions would also be increased a lot.

nIn order to get the Taoist, Gao Shu spent a lot of effort, so of course, he wanted to manage this team well.

nHowever, only when he took over the team did he just found out that he was into deep trouble.

n

n

nThe representative of the Taoist team was really unbelievable.

nIn the past, the teams, that he was in charge of, would always come to him, asking when the game would be approved, when they would start to promote the game, or when they could release the game, etc… They all feared that their work would be forgotten by the people from the site. However, this Taoist never asked him a single question as if he had completely forgotten about this.

nSeeing the Taoist was so calm, Gao Shu thought that the Taoist was very confident about their game. He even thought that their patience deserved praise. However, after he messaged them that their game was approved by the government, all he received was a letter – “k”.

n‘K my ass!’

nBeing approved by the government meant that they could release the game at any time, it also meant they would soon be paid for their hard work. This was the day that many game developers had been waiting for. However, he just replied with one letter. Not even a complete word.

nSince that reply, Gao Shu had a bad feeling. And just like what he had felt, what happened after made Gao Shu want to bang his head against a wall.

nAfter all the necessary documents were ready. The promotion of the game immediately began. Whether it was other gaming sites or their own sites, all the banners and advertising videos, texts, posters, were released at the same time. With enough advertising fund, Gao Shu intended to make this game big and make this Taoist development team famous.

nMany gaming sites, magazines all showed interests in the game, and many of them wanted to interview the development team, hoping that they could learn some in-depth development processes of the game and the highlights of this game.

nThe game would be released soon, so this type of interviews was very normal. Many development teams would only want to have as many interviews as possible to promote their games.

nHowever, when Gao Shu told the Taoist about the interview, the Taoist refused all of them at once.

n“Do whatever you like, but we don’t do interviews.”

nGao Shu was completely confused. It was not selling some fruits in a market where they needed to constantly shout what they were selling. This was a good game. If they advertised it well, they might even try to hit the first milestone, which was to sell 50 thousands copies of the game.

nHowever, no matter how Gao Shu tried to persuade the Taoist, he just couldn’t change the Taoist’s mind.

nIn the end, the Taoist was probably irritated by his constant messages, he just directly replied, “I am the only representative of the team, my team members all said that they do not want any interviews. However, if you are able to contact them individually, and change their minds, I’ll not have any problem!”

n‘You think I won’t be able to?!’

nGao Shu was also pissed off by the Taoist’s reply.
