There is indeed a problem with my summoning spirit system

Chapter 133. 131. Reaction of the Ocean to the Shore

"Student, we're going to compete on stage in an hour, so go and put on some makeup."

Lu Yi wanted to leave a message in the temporarily formed discussion group @李.

After receiving the news, Li Xiang stopped receiving new customers, and also informed the girls who were helping to attract customers:

"I'm going to change clothes. We're closing the store temporarily. I'll leave after I finish the few orders I have."

The young lady gestured "OK" to Li Xiang.

After making crepes for the last few guests, Lee wanted to take off his apron and go to the changing place they had told him about earlier.

In order to enrich the content of the exhibition, in addition to the regular content, the organizer also held a small coser restoration competition. Everyone who participated in the comic exhibition could exchange their admission card for a vote. During the event, Cast this ballot for your favorite player or group of players, and the winner will receive a bonus of 5000 yuan.It was this small event that Fang Feiwan and the others took Li Xiang to participate in.

In addition, there are various performances, live dubbing and other entertainment projects in the venue. In short, domestic comic exhibitions have become more and more commercialized since capital came into the venue.

But this has nothing to do with Li Xiang and the others. They are just a group of two-dimensional lovers who are just for fun, and the serious preparation for the performance is only out of interest.

The place to change clothes is on the ground floor of an office building. There is a lot of space but there is no shelter, so cosplayers need to be self-reliant.Some boys and girls who are more worried about exposure will also choose to change clothes in the toilet cubicle.

Of course, most of the cosplayers have already changed their clothes at home. When they arrive at the venue, they only need to touch up their makeup before going "shopping".

Fang Feiwan and the others had already changed their clothes, and they were about to go on stage when Li Xiang was ready.

"Senior Li Xiang, your clothes are here."

As soon as he entered the dressing area, Li Xiang saw Fang Feiwan waving to him with a bag of clothes.

The character Li Xiang wants to restore this time is relatively simple in terms of dress, that is, a suit with a suit and a bow tie.Generally speaking, the clothing of most island country animation male protagonists is simpler than that of female protagonists.And the work of Hayate the Butler is closer to real life.When it comes to dressing up, the only exaggerated decoration that Li Xiang wants to wear is a short blue wig headgear.

Because he was a boy and there were other clothes inside, Li Xiang had nothing to be pretentious about.I just took off my jacket and pants and changed my clothes.

After changing clothes, Li Xiang was pushed on the chair by the makeup team leader Jiang He and began to put on makeup.

When applying the foundation, Jiang He could not help but marvel at the smoothness of his fingertips:

"Do you boys have such good skin?"

After Li Xiang returned from the Sword World, Yrel rebuilt his body.As a by-product of reconstruction, all parts of Li Xiang's body are now brand new.The newly formed skin has not been damaged by wind, sun and large amounts of ultraviolet rays, and is as white and full of collagen as a child's skin.

"Well, Miss Jiang He, time may be a little tight, can we continue to make up?"

Li Xiang had black lines all over his face.

"Okay, okay, I understand. Don't frown. It's easy to apply uneven foundation on the grooves on your face."

Jiang He carefully put on Li Xiang layer after layer of cosmetics such as eye shadow and lipstick.

"Well, this styling was very successful."

Jiang He looked at his "work" and showed a satisfied smile.

She gave Li Xiang a small mirror: "Take a look for yourself. What do you think?"

Li Xiang lowered his head. After all the hard work, Li Xiang in the mirror looked like a handsome young man.Bright eyes, white teeth, and eyes with amorous glances. The carefully modified eyes are the biggest highlight of the entire face.Under the combined effect of mascara, eyeshadow and eyeliner on double eyelids, Li Xiang felt that his eyes seemed to have more than doubled in size.

"This is simply sorcery."

Li Xiang was filled with emotion.

"The male protagonist is set to be a handsome boy who looks like a girl. The outline of your face is softer, and your foundation is also quite good. The degree of restoration is not bad. Toffee, what do you think?"

"Ah? Let me see."

Fang Feiwan took a sip of the ice cream, then turned to look at Li Xiang:
"Well, not bad."

"Okay, hurry up and finish the cone in your hand. I still have to refill your lipstick. It's really troublesome."

When Jiang He saw the trace of red lipstick on the surface of the cone, he felt like his head was spinning.

After finishing the styling, Li Xiang was taken to the backstage of the temporary stage by Fang Feiwan.

At this time, there are already many contestants waiting in the background.As far as Li wants to see, there are more than a dozen themes such as EVA and Attack on Titan.Lu Yi, on the other hand, had already brought several girls from the association to wait in the backstage corner in full armor.

"President, here we come."

"Well, it's good to be here. We will be on the stage in three more time. Don't be nervous. We are here to play, and we have to have fun. Don't have any psychological burden. But I don't think you should have any This kind of problem, there are only three acting majors here! If you have stage fright, let alone acting, even finding a job will be a problem.”

Lu Yi half-jokingly said.

After the three groups of contestants before them stepped down, it was finally Li Xiang's turn to take the stage.

After a brief introduction by the host, several members of the club came on stage.

From the perspective of restoration, Li Xiang and their cosplay are quite successful.Especially a few young ladies, including Li Xiang, are quite good-looking, and their visual effects score is very high.

And in the performance session as a bonus item, the acting skills that the girls have learned professionally and systematically won a lot of applause.

The satisfaction of the audience was finally reflected in the votes. They got the most votes, won No.1, and the 1 yuan bonus for No.5000.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the first day of the exhibition came to an end.The comic exhibition was held for a total of three days, and those stores and groups that participated in the three consecutive days left their things at the venue.But Lu Yi and the others only planned to participate for one day, so they returned today.

"Senior, did you have fun today?"

On the way back, Fang Feiwan and Li Xiang, who was pushing the cart, fell at the back of the queue.Fang Feiwan ate a lollipop and chatted with Li Xiang.

"Although it's a little different from what I thought, it's still quite interesting. However, if I do it again, I probably won't come."

"Oh, why?"

Fang Feiwan handed Li Xiang a piece of chewing gum.He gave Li Xiang a "whether or not" wink.

Li Xiang took this piece of chewing gum, unwrapped it, and chewed it in his mouth.

"How should I put it. I used to look forward to activities such as comic exhibitions, concerts, and dances. I thought that since there were so many people participating, it would be very interesting. But later I discovered that the excitement may bring temporary pleasure, but it does not It can't bring real satisfaction. For an old man like me, joining in this kind of fun should be the last time..."

Li Xiang's voice became smaller and smaller from the second sentence, and Fang Feiwan couldn't hear the last sentence at all.

"Senior Li Xiang, what did you say?"

"It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself, don't worry about it."

At this time, Li Xiang didn't know that if everyone can only scoop out a ladle of water from the long river of time, after signing the contract with Yrel, he can already scoop out several ladles or even dozens of ladles of time. of water.From this moment on, his consciousness has begun to deviate from the track of "humanity", sliding towards an unknown direction.

After returning to the dormitory, Li Xiang received a "warm welcome" from his roommates.

"Hey, our handsome guy is back. Did you hook up with any girl today?"

Fang Guoping, who was chewing fresh beef jerky sent from home, joked with a smile.

"No, it doesn't exist."

Li Xiang took out a piece of beef jerky from the bag in Fang Guoping's hand, broke off a small piece and put it in his mouth.The fresh aroma of beef hits your nose.

"Lao Fang, your beef jerky tastes really good. If you open a store and sell it, it will definitely become popular."

"Okay, I know my own affairs. Don't look at this is just a small bag of beef jerky. Not only does it need to be dried, but it also needs to be brushed with layers of honey on the surface. The spices mixed with honey are more particular, and it is troublesome to make. Yes. If my mother who is out of town is afraid that I will be greedy, she will definitely not want to do it."

"By the way." Wang Shunuo, who was also eating beef jerky, interjected: "Li, I think your computer was turned off when you went out in the morning. You seem to have received an email. The title is in Japanese, and we didn't read the content. Remember to read it yourself. one time."

"okay, I get it."

Li Xiang clicked on his mailbox, and sure enough, as Wang Shunuo said, at the top of the mailbox's unread emails was an email with a Japanese title.

After a brief reading, this email seemed to be jointly sent by Dengeki Bunko and Kawahara Reki.The content of the email was about the infringement of the videos he posted.

"The efficiency is really high."

Li Xiang was amazed.

It has only been less than five days since his video was released on Station B after passing the review.Unexpectedly, the other party discovered the problem so quickly and sent him an email.

Of course, Li Xiang had expected that the copyright owner would send a letter.It was for this reason that he attached his contact email address after his account and video.

"Lao Li, you look like you can understand it. When did you learn Japanese?"

Zhao Yibo was surprised to see Li Xiang browsing the contents of the email.

"I've always known it. I taught myself. I just didn't tell you."

The answer given by Li Xiang is of course false.The real reason why he learned Japanese is because he had lived in the world of Shokugeki Spirits for decades.In the past few decades, the country he has spent the longest time in is the island country next door to the world of Shoji.

Li Xiang, who had lived in that environment for so long and had also studied the language, could easily read a Japanese document at this time.

After downloading a Japanese input method, Li Xiang started typing out a reply.

The issue of infringement may be a big deal or a small one, but when both parties can reach a private settlement, the laws of any country are too lazy to meddle in other matters.Li Xiang's original plan was to let the other party take the initiative to contact him after the video became popular.

After all, both Dengeki Bunko and Kawahara, the original author of the sword, are well-known existences in the industry, and he is just an ordinary student. Before, even if he sent them a letter, he probably would not get a response.It's different now. Taking advantage of the fan video he uploaded, the other party took the initiative to contact him. In this way, he had a certain amount of initiative.

In Li Xiang's view, the videos he released did not generate any actual profits. They only brought invisible wealth such as popularity and attention, and they had no chance to be realized.In other words, the "fan videos" he made not only did not harm the interests of the original author, but actually provided popularity for the original work of Sword to a certain extent.

The most important thing is that Li wants to publish the video for the power of faith, which does not conflict with money in the real world. As long as he makes concessions on the profits gained from the video, it should be easier to reach a settlement.

With such a mentality, Li Xiang mailed his reply to the other party.

In his reply, Li Xiang put forward some of his own suggestions and conditions.And suggested that both parties "keep it private" from each other.

It seems that this matter is quite important to the other party.Less than half an hour after Li Xiang's reply was sent, he received a reply from the other party.

Finally, after some discussions, the other company expressed its willingness to send personnel to Li Xiang's location to exchange opinions face to face.

It would be great to be able to have an interview, and Li Xiang readily accepted the other party's request.And agreed with the other party to meet in three days.

At this point, Li Xiang finally stopped typing on the keyboard.Seeing that Li Xiang seemed to have finished his work, Zhao Yibo asked curiously:

"Old Li, what were you doing just now? There are strings of bird words on the screen."

"A friend I know from an island country asked me something, and I just answered it for him."

Li Xiang explained nonchalantly:
"I can't see it, Lao Li, you still have such special skills. If I knew it, I would have asked you to help me translate the resources on my disk. It seems really uncomfortable without subtitles and translation!"

"Go, go, look at your virtue. Pull him down, I won't do it!"

Li Xiang picked up his toiletries and went to the bathroom.

At this moment, in the island country on the other side of the strait, inside the Dengeki Bunko headquarters, a middle-aged man who seemed to be a superior was explaining work to his subordinates.

"Watanabe-kun, this time the company will give you a special task as an excellent employee."

The middle-aged man took out a document and showed it to Watanabe.

The content of the file is obviously about Li Xiang's video infringement.

"Section Chief, do you want me to fight for more rights for the company?"

"No, no, no..." The middle-aged minister shook his head, "This is just the material you will use when the time comes. The real purpose of the company sending you is to check whether the other party has 'technology'."

"technology?"

"Yes, if you have seen the video produced by the other party, you will know. This 'fan work' is well-produced, far exceeding the works of all animation companies that can be found on the market, but the production cycle of the other party is obviously different. Long, this shows that if the other party does not have a large investment to speed up production and improve quality regardless of cost, or has new animation production technology that can subvert the existing market system, the higher-ups believe that the latter is more likely , if we can obtain this technology, or even cooperate with each other, then we can obtain a rare business opportunity. …
