Xu Milu was drowning in debt. After obtaining a dimensional travel system, she embarked on an irreversible path of selling interdimensional ingredients across the universe.
She hawks pearls f...
[Waaaaah, I'm crying so hard! Is this the world of the rich? They can buy aircraft like it's nothing, and they can even get their hands on concept cars?!]
【I don't believe it! I don't believe it! This can't be real unless you send it to me so I can see it!!!】
[Oh my god, I'm running out of data for the holographic projection! Can someone lend me some?]
[Damn it, I hate people who flaunt their wealth the most, drag them out and execute them!]
[Does anyone remember that he started out as a food vlogger?]
Ningzi, I really like your junior aunt! Would you mind giving me the phone?
"Ahem, seeing how curious everyone is about this, I won't keep you in suspense any longer."
Faced with a barrage of insults in the live chat, Li Ning quickly seized the opportunity to speak up. After all, some people had already started mentioning the hotel's name in the comments, and if he continued to boast, he might be assassinated by the entire group.
Li Ning stabilized the immersion equipment, ensuring the tablet camera was pointed as close to the phone as possible so viewers in the live stream could see it more clearly.
"Just to clarify, I haven't used the Magic Shadow APP much before. Today, I'll share my experience with everyone. Since the footage that will be broadcast later may involve copyright issues, I'll turn off the live stream tipping function. You can just send comments instead!"
Because he was very close to the camera, the viewers in the live stream could clearly see the minimalist silver-white interface on the tablet. After opening it, they saw a carousel of animated images that caught their eye. The films and TV shows being promoted included those produced by film companies as well as those commissioned by private individuals. The works uploaded by users of the Magic Shadow APP accounted for 82% of the total.
—This is already a rather astonishing proportion.
At the bottom of the app are four options: "Featured", "Recommended", "Library", and "My Settings". In the center is a plus sign that indicates you are creating content. Clicking on it will take you to a massive library of materials.
"Just to let you know in advance, the Magic Shadow APP uses a paid system. There is no membership fee after each user registers. Only film and television works that require payment of copyright fees and celebrity portrait fees will charge a fee."
Li Ning explained quite patiently:
"Looking at their homepage recommendations, they refresh a selection of free works every week, which means that to some extent, people can enjoy them for free, which is great."
Oh my god, I'm totally in love! I think I just saw a supernatural drama!! I love it!!!
[This fangirl is ecstatic! From now on, I won't have to worry about my idol's work hours being too short!]
So, does this mean I can dream about working with one of my favorite actors?
Be bold, you can dream about a romance drama with your favorite idol!
[Any storyline is fine? I have a bold idea...]
[I used it once before, and the user experience was indeed quite good. The actors are categorized by star rating, with one-star and two-star actors having higher copyright fees. You can also choose your favorite scripts, all of which have had their copyright fees paid by Honghe Films, so there are no copyright issues.]
[Oh my god! Anime scripts too?! I'm going to download one right now!]
[I downloaded it two weeks ago and recommended it to everyone I know, it's really amazing!! Being able to make your own TV series is so cool!!]
The number of viewers in the live stream continued to grow, and gradually, some discordant comments began to appear in the chat:
[Let's go, let's go. Isn't this just AI editing, a complete Frankenstein's monster? Disgusting.]
[Hilarious! It's clearly just a video editing software. Honghe (the company behind it) hyped it up like it was the best thing ever. Is this all? Is this all?]
[That's enough, there's nothing good to see here. If you like editing, you might as well go to some obscure site to watch couples!]
[After all that talk, they still want to charge! How disgusting! Their capitalist faces are showing!]
[Exactly! If this happens, actors' salaries will drop. What if my brother doesn't get paid? Boycott Honghe Films! Boycott Moying APP!!]
This is all a conspiracy by capital, a conspiracy by capital to exploit young actors!! Boycott it!
[Exactly! Who will need actors after this? You're just a lackey of capital!]
[Exactly! What kind of "little nun" is she? Didn't she do a live stream before? Probably just another internet celebrity desperate for fame, trying to grab attention and climb the ladder!]
"Hey, I don't like hearing you say that. Why are you even swearing? So what if I'm an internet celebrity? Are you looking down on internet celebrities? Besides, my junior aunt is a legitimate contestant, the last disciple of Cui Shengguo, the master of state banquets!"
Li Ning initially didn't want to pay attention to these comments, but he wasn't one to tolerate things passively, so when he saw someone attacking Xu Milu, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and started cursing:
"Cluck cluck cluck, are you a hen? Let me tell you, all the actors in Honghe Film and Television Material Library are real-name verified and have signed cooperation agreements. As long as someone chooses your brother's image as material, he can get a fee. You're jumping around here, have you asked your idol?"
If your brother really doesn't want to, then don't sign the contract. This is a society governed by law. It's not like some celebrity film company is forcing women into prostitution. Oh, now that he's getting paid, he's afraid of being criticized by fans. Why didn't he show up when he was getting paid?
The person who was just jumping around immediately started playing dead and keeping quiet, while the live chat was filled with jubilation:
[Hahaha, this is hilarious! Coach Li Ning is really going on a tirade!]
Indeed, celebrities used to command salaries of millions, but on the Moying APP, they might only receive 50 cents or a dollar for image fees per episode. It sounds really pathetic, hahaha!
[Little by little, it adds up. So many people around the world use it. A top artist like Fu Xuan probably earns around a million a day...]
[This is a case of benefiting from the times. Anyway, I have a feeling that Fu Xuan's generation might be the last to command "2.08 million." Who knows, there won't be any more sky-high salaries in the future. Everyone should hurry and take a group photo!]
It's hard to say. After all, the Magic Shadow app only relies on algorithms to build scenes and uses actors' facial expressions for simulation. It's uncertain whether the quality of the work can compare to live-action filming.
[I actually think it's great... The special effects in Shadow of the Dead are truly top-notch. I once saw a post-apocalyptic film where the sun was about to explode, and Earth scientists decided to take the planet on a journey. Wow, the scenes were so realistic!]
[Me! Me! Me! I watched a video about daily life set against a Journey to the West backdrop before. The little monsters in it were all so cute, and the scene construction was so realistic. It was really amazing!]
[Has no one mentioned the currently popular Western fantasy/infrastructure-building genre? The orc and Warcraft models are absolutely amazing!! After watching it, I even want to time travel!]
