Genius’s Possessed Game Broadcast Episode 635

Episode 635 – I heard it through the grapevine (5)

Pugmalion was filled with determination. She immediately began the work of revision.

“Then, I ask that you please interpret well.”

“Ah, I’ll make sure you don’t feel uncomfortable.”

As she entered the development capsule, Lee Kyung-bok politely greeted her and moved on to the next schedule.

There was no need for Cho Dae-han to stay behind because the company had prepared an interpreter.

“Oh, you came! Looks like the art team is done well.”

“Yes, please take good care of your voice as well.”

The place they soon arrived was the sound team. Lee Kyung-bok responded gently to the team leader’s welcome.

Lee Kyung-bok’s voice was also included in this contract. It was also necessary to check how it was applied.

“Of course. Well, we had an easier time working with the art team. It was thanks to the materials we received from the Demon Must Cry development team.”

In the case of the previous Demon Must Cry, I was able to know the content in advance because Lee Kyung-bok had a test broadcast. However, this time, it was a pre-release contract and my character appeared, so the situation was different.

“Well, it would be faster if you listen to it yourself instead. First, I’ll play the original voice actor’s voice before the work, and then I’ll play the voice with Purple’s voice applied.”

The sound team leader immediately played the voice sample he had prepared. The eyes of all the team members who were listening turned wide.

“Wow, what is that?”

“Wow… This is really amazing.”

“No, the tone of voice is completely different, but the way you speak doesn’t feel awkward!”

“When I close my eyes and listen, it really feels like Purple is speaking.”

Lee Kyung-bok also nodded his head in agreement.

“This is cleaner than when I played Bark 1? Wow, I was surprised to hear John talking in my voice back then too…”

The sound team leader was so pleased with the response that the clown went up in flames.

“No, no, it’s difficult to compare it to that. What Purple-nim was talking about is a method of collecting voice data within the capsule itself.”

“By itself?”

“Yes. Since Purple is a streamer, he must have been able to accumulate data quickly. He talks a lot while communicating with viewers.”

As the team leader spoke, he lightly tapped the keyboard. In response, a graph in the form of sound waves was projected as a hologram.

“But this time, the starting point is different. First of all, the quality of the voice sample that Purple-nim prepared is different. And since we adjusted it ourselves, it would be difficult if it is not different.”

“Oh…”

“Well, it’s bound to be different if it’s done by an expert.”

Everyone agreed with him and sighed again. While they were continuing to confirm, there was a knock on the door, it opened, and another employee came in.

“Excuse me. The main voice actors have arrived.”

“Huh? You came earlier than I expected.”

The team leader’s eyes widened at that, but the team members were not surprised.

“Oh, then I’ll go check your camera settings first.”

“Oh, okay.”

Choi Byung-hoon handed the camera over to Madman as if he had been waiting and went outside.

“Oh, I’ll try to interpret it properly!”

“Hey, what else is there for Mr. Daehan to emphasize? He’s already good at it.”

“But it’s an interview…!”

This was because we decided to include game voice actor interview content in this vlog. Everyone looked excited about it, but Park Joo-ho reacted a little differently.

‘Kyungbok said it was okay, but…’

He wiped his glasses and expressed his concern inwardly.

‘If you think about it, it’s like having your own spot taken away.’

With this contract, the existing voice actor lost his chance to appear. What if that voice actor has a grudge against Lee Kyung-bok?

‘This guy would know right away.’

Doesn’t Lee Kyung-bok hate people whose insides and outs are different from their outsides?

Park Joo-ho adjusted his glasses and observed his complexion. Lee Kyung-bok, however, showed no sign of caring at all.

As soon as the voice actors came in, Park Joo-ho was able to feel relieved.

“Huh, nice to meet you!”

“Wow, it’s really Mr. Purple…! Hello!”

“Wow! Please take good care of me!”

It was thanks to the voice actors’ overwhelming joy upon seeing Lee Kyung-bok.

“Hello. I’m streamer Purple.”

The voice actors’ reactions became even more heated at Lee Kyung-bok’s answer.

“Wow…! A perfect voice that I can actually hear! It’s the best…!”

“No, no, shouldn’t we change the main character?”

“Really…! Mr. Purple, don’t say anything embarrassing!”

Lee Kyung-bok also smiled at the blooming smile, but soon turned his head away.

“Jooho and Madman, please check the story.”

In addition to the sound, we also had to confirm the lines, actions, and directing of the Purple character in the work.

But if you knew that in advance, the fun of the game would be halved.

Lee Kyung-bok decided to leave the decision up to his team members. The two people who took on the responsibility answered confidently.

“Well, don’t worry about it.”

“I will judge very strictly!”

Team Perfect’s division of labor has always been efficient.

Sound team conference room.

Choi Byung-hoon gave an okay sign from behind the camera. Lee Kyung-bok exchanged glances with the voice actors and nodded.

“Now, this time, Cap Company has arranged a very special opportunity for you. The three of you, please briefly introduce yourselves to our viewers.”

With Cho Dae-han’s interpretation, the voice actors continued their introductions in a pre-prepared order.

“Hello! I’m Sandra from Biocrisis…”

“Yes! I am your clone, the voice of John…”

“It’s my turn. It might be a little unfamiliar, but I’m in charge of Ryan Kim…”

After the three people finished introducing themselves, Lee Kyung-bok lightly clapped his hands and continued the proceedings smoothly.

“Oh, you are really our honored guests? No, I was startled the first time I heard your voice. It felt like I was meeting game characters in real life.”

Even though it was an interview, the atmosphere was not stiff. The voice actors each expressed their thoughts with smiles on their faces.

“Huh? Is that so? You greeted me so calmly…!”

“No, no, I told you we thought it was just us. In fact, we felt the same way when we heard Purple’s voice.”

“Ah, I finally got to hear Purple’s voice in person, something I’d only heard on TV.”

The atmosphere became cheerful.

Lee Kyung-bok quickly checked the questionnaire he had prepared in advance. The questions were selected through prior consultation between the developer and Team Perfect.

“As you all know when this video is released, a new Biocrisis game is coming out! Thankfully, I also got a chance to appear in it. But what’s special is that before I signed on, my homage character was voiced by Sandra, the voice actor?”

“Ah, that’s right, that’s right! I acted!”

“I don’t know much about the voice acting industry. Are voice actors not usually restricted by the gender of their characters?”

Sandra rolled her eyes for a moment at that question and then opened her mouth.

“Oh, there’s a bit of history to this. Actually, originally, male voice actors performed the parts first.”

“Ah, that’s right. I tried it once too. No, no, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t reach the perfect voice.”

“That’s right. What should I say, the feeling is so different. I’m afraid that it would be a great disrespect to both us and Purple-nim to do a poor imitation…”

When the other two voice actors added, Sandra nodded.

“I think the developers probably had the same idea. That’s why the direction I was asked to take was, ‘Don’t imitate the voice, but let the personality shine through.’”

“Personality?”

“Yes! Of course, Purple is an adult, but on TV, he shows his ‘boyish’ side. So I wanted to show that with a more neutral voice. That’s why I took on the role.”

Lee Kyung-bok pretended to open his eyes wide at the explanation and joked.

“Aha, I unintentionally caused confusion in development.”

“Huh? No, no, that’s not true at all!”

“Confusion? Rather, it is thanks to Purple that we have received great grace.”

“Oh, really. What would have happened if Purple wasn’t here…?”

He was truly amazed at the reactions of the three people.

“Forgiveness? Me?”

“Yes. I guess I should explain this to you rather than the other two.”

Voice actor Ryan Kim cleared his throat briefly at this.

“You all know this now, but before Purple cleared the game, no one knew about Ryan Kim’s appearance. No, no, of course my part was very short…! But I participated, and no one knew about it.”

“Really…! It must have been really frustrating. No, how much more frustrating for us?”

“Our voice actors don’t just do one project at a time. They also sign contracts to play other characters, right? But even though the game has been out for quite some time, this guy couldn’t add Ryan Kim to his resume.”

Lee Kyung-bok was able to grasp the situation right away.

“Oh, so there was a bit of a hitch in the pay negotiations…?”

“That’s right! No, no, no, this is going to be a spoiler, so I can’t reveal it easily. In fact, I was giving myself a discount before Purple-sama showed up!”

When he playfully complained, everyone laughed. Lee Kyung-bok also joked around with him.

“Aha, why did you seem so happy to see me? So this wasn’t just pure fandom?”

“Huh? Huh!? No, no, Purple-sama…! Please look! Bio-Crisis fans from all over the world are watching…! Now it’s Ryan Kim’s turn to act!”

The other two voice actors also burst into laughter at the tiki-taka between the two.

“Oh, of course I’m joking. If I go any further it might be a spoiler. Let’s move on to the next question!”

Lee Kyung-bok also smiled at that and continued to present.

Early evening.

The first day’s schedule has come to an end with the interview filming completed.

“Wow…! Michelin 2 stars!”

“Wow, I heard this is an authentic omakase restaurant in Japan!”

“I’m looking forward to what the sushi on the mainland tastes like.”

Lee Kyung-bok and his team arrived at the restaurant reserved by the company. To ensure that they could dine comfortably, no one from the development company accompanied them.

The meal that followed was very satisfying, just as the developer had hoped.

“Mr. Pugmalion, so the character modifications are all finished?”

“Oh, yes yes! Fortunately, I finished everything.”

While the food was being prepared, team members reported on their individual situations.

“As you can see, the scan was very precise to begin with. There weren’t many corrections.”

“Oh, really?”

“But you came out almost at the very end…?”

When everyone nodded in agreement but expressed their bewilderment, she let out an embarrassed laugh.

“Oh, that’s true… I was looking at references rather than editing…”

“Reference?”

“Yes. Well, I guess Cap Company has its own unique art style, right? I don’t want Purple’s character to feel out of place with the other characters.”

Perfect reproduction was important, but harmony could not be overlooked. So she carefully checked the developers’ work.

“The team leader there said that I was a good stimulus to them… but I actually had more to learn. Should we say that large companies are definitely efficient…? I’m going to try that method next time.”

The team members’ mouths opened slightly at her words.

“Huh, as expected, it’s Pugmalion.”

“Really. You’ve grown up so much in the meantime.”

“Well, your eye for detail and sense are definitely different.”

“Could this be our boss’s big picture?”

“Huh? Did you notice?”

The atmosphere became even warmer with the team members’ compliments and Lee Kyung-bok’s teasing. Pugmalion, who was in the middle of it all, waved his hand in embarrassment and changed the subject.

“No, it’s not that great…! Oh, how was the story and directing?”

“Ah, it was really good. I didn’t see any damage to Purple’s image at all.”

“Hey, Manager! Damage! I can’t tell you because it’s a spoiler, but it was really good. Even though it was a supporting role, the amount of screen time was sufficient! I guarantee that those who have watched it will be satisfied!”

Everyone gasped at Park Joo-ho and Madman’s explanation. Choi Byung-hoon smiled brightly and rubbed his hands together.

“Wow, I can see the jackpot! Honestly, the game is a game, but this vlog alone is worth the collaboration. No, the voice actor interviews were also really well-chosen.”

“Huh? Is that all?”

“Mom, what if you make progress but don’t feel it?”

He quickly glanced at the other team members and snapped his fingers.

“No, look. All the stuff we filmed today was originally supposed to be exclusives for a gaming webzine. But where is this going to be posted first? It’s our Pertube, I mean! Exclusive! Exclusive! Do you get the feeling? We’re going to get a huge number of views, right?”

“Oh, that’s right!”

“And the developers are paying all the costs?”

“Ugh, I guess I’ll have to eat it again to thank you…!”

Lee Kyung-bok raised his glass while looking at his team members who were very happy.

“Okay. Let’s all have a toast!”

There were light cheers and exclamations of satisfaction here and there. Among them, Park Joo-ho spoke seriously.

“But you shouldn’t drink too much.”

“Hey, that’s right. We’re just hanging on to our necks!”

“That’s right, you should never get drunk.”

“Because the showcase is tomorrow.”

“That’s true, and there’s also the next content.”

Lee Kyung-bok also agreed with his teammates’ answers and emptied his glass.

“Of course. It’s for the fans, but it can’t smell like alcohol.”

All the vlog content I’ve filmed so far has been about games.

But what happened next was different.

“This is my first time filming offline content like this. It kind of feels like I’ve finally become a YouTuber.”

“Even though it’s my first time, this is truly a 100% success!”

“That’s right. There’s no surprise like this surprise!”

“There’s no way fans can hate it.”

“Well, you immediately agreed to cooperate with the filming…”

Content planned purely for fans.

That stage is.

“Ugh, I have to eat quickly before Kokukiya closes!”

“No, there’s still plenty of time. You shouldn’t do that.”

Where to buy Perfect Goods in Japan.

It was a franchise specializing in goods, Kokukiya.

“Rather, aren’t the fans surprised and shocked?”

“Hey, if I were in that situation, I would be grateful even if it meant getting hurt.”

“The owner himself shows up when you buy perfect goods? Wow, that’s something to brag about for the rest of your life.”

Closer to the fans.

Lee Gyeong-bok was a man who knew how to keep his word.
