Chapter 004. "The Voice of the Stars"
A high-end community in Ningjiang, in a twenty-story building.
Bai Haoran stopped the brush in his hand, and the display screen connected to the digital tablet is Lu Ming, the protagonist of the most popular animation "Bandit King". This is an unfinished original painting, and the plot is about the animation content that should be broadcast in about three weeks.
He is a freelance original artist and is not subordinate to a production company. This part of the original painting is an order he received.
The video next to it was played last night's "Bandit King". This is an episode with a very high quality painting, and Bai Haoran also highly appreciated it.
When he was tired of painting, he decided to rest for half an hour, so he opened the chat group.
As the saying goes, it’s good to have a good time to slap fish, and it’s good to have a good time to slap fish.
Fishing is the basic need of the broadest masses of the people, and he is no exception. Bai Haoran looked at several groups that were usually active at work hours, but found that they were all discussing a video.
"Ningda's graduation exhibition?"
Bai Haoran quickly realized that it was time for this.
Looking at the group members who forwarded the post, Bai Haoran subconsciously resisted.
What decent things can a senior student come up with?
Not to mention anything else, Bai Haoran was a student of Ning University back then. He won the Excellent Graduation Award for that year with a dynamic racing short film and entered the industry. After working for a few years, he felt the domineering contract of Tomato Video Network, he chose to resign and become a freelance original artist.
Although he had some subjective first impressions, Bai Haoran still clicked on the video.
——There is a word called the world.
A clear and pure female voice came from the computer. This voice was so pure that Bai Haoran's eyes lit up.
I saw a tall building and a slow-moving world, a short-haired girl wearing a student's school uniform was standing there, holding an old straight-board phone in her hand.
In such a huge world, girls are alone, and the atmosphere of loneliness and loneliness is suddenly contagious.
——I have always vaguely believed that the so-called world is where radio waves can be transmitted.
As the girl tells the story, the pictures pass through tall buildings, classrooms, and stations. These pictures are extremely exquisite, as delicate as photos, so exquisite that any screenshot can be used as wallpaper.
Through this series of pictures without any background music, people can also empathize and gradually be shrouded in a strong loneliness.
Then the next moment, the girl who was praying opened her eyes again, and the picture suddenly expanded.
The girl was in the control room of the huge robot, surrounded by the sea of stars.
As the picture gradually becomes smaller, the title of the film appears with the piano accompaniment.
"Voice of the Stars".
The following plot is supported by the heroine's monologue. From the interaction between the hero and the heroine, to the separation, to the text messages that take eight years to send, the whole film lingers in a faint sentimental atmosphere. Until the end, the heroine is attacked by the enemy, and her life and death are uncertain. Eight years later, the text messages carrying the heroine's longing finally reached the hero's mobile phone.
This text message only has one sentence.
——Hello, 24-year-old Asheng, I am 15-year-old Mijia, I like you until now.
The video has reached its end, but Bai Haoran is still immersed in the animation world.
Whether it was the vague feelings between the two characters, the grand and lonely starry sky in the universe, and the unimaginable distance of light years, Bai Haoran was amazed.
This is really a story conceived by a college student!!?
Such an animation is what you want!!!
Bai Haoran couldn't help but stand up and paced back and forth. He seemed to be back when he was just in contact with animation production. The longing and throbbing made him unable to control himself.
There are two types of excellent works. One is that other creators can’t help themselves after seeing it, and they want to push all the things they make down and remade them.
The other is to let other creators ignite their creative minds and want to produce equally excellent works.
And "The Voice of the Star" is undoubtedly the second type.
At this moment, Bai Haoran had thousands of inspirations emerging in his heart, and he wished he could have the ability to realize his dreams and realize them all.
While feeling moved, Bai Haoran returned to the computer and clicked forwarded it casually. His account on Tomato Video Network is called [The Shepherd of the Library]. It is a high-level account with 300,000 followers. Bai Haoran added another comment. He couldn't hide his excitement and wanted to see this video for everyone he knew!

In a university dormitory in a certain place in China, Luo Hongwei had just lost a game and was in a bad mood.
After drinking a sip of water, he looked at the time and decided to have supper first.
Hot water instant noodles and ham sausages, skillfully prepared supper. While waiting, Luo Hongwei opened Tomato Video Network to see if the bloggers he followed had updated.
As soon as he refreshed, he saw an animation blogger [The Shepherd in the Library] he was following forwarding an animated short film.
"Star Voice? Why do you feel so pretentious? I'm afraid it's not the kind of movie that is really messy in expensive circles."
Luo Hongwei likes to watch passionate animations. The story of friendship and victory makes him excited. His game ID also comes from Lu Ming, the protagonist in "Bandit King". Because there are too many names, his ID is Lu Ming 33.
Luo Hongwei sneered at the girl animation that was so stingy about her feelings.
But since he was recommended by [The Shepherd in the Library], he would just take a look.
When he clicked on the play button, Luo Hongwei was immediately attracted by the exquisite pictures. When the video was played, he was still stunned. A feeling of loss that he had never felt before was filled with his heart, making Luo Hongwei cry without tears, and could only hold it in his heart. In the words of his hometown, it was heartbreaking.
Luo Hongwei had never been in love, but he felt the taste of broken heart. He was stunned for a long time before finally coming back to his senses and remembering his instant noodles.
The noodles were indeed blurred.

In a university library in Huaguo, Geng Chaoyang stretched his body. He took out his cell phone and wanted to browse Weibo and be lazy.
After looking through some Weibo posts that reposted photos of cats and dogs, Geng Chaoyang saw a video of reposting.
The comment given by the blogger forwarded was "the most distant long-distance relationship in history", which touched Geng Chaoyang's heart.
He had a very good female classmate in high school. The two often studied together and made an appointment to take the same university.
Unfortunately, Geng Chaoyang failed the college entrance examination and only got into a second-rate university. The reason why he studied so hard was to be able to get into the postgraduate student of the girl's school and fulfill the agreement that year was because of the encouragement of the other party that Geng Chaoyang could persist.
Now that he saw this comment about long-distance relationship, he immediately felt a lot. He hurriedly took out his headphones and watched this animated video for more than ten minutes.
The exquisite pictures, the plot full of sadness, and the helpless huge gap in reality all resonated strongly in Geng Chaoyang's heart. This resonance even broke through Geng Chaoyang's psychological defense and made him cry on the spot.
Geng Chaoyang buried his head in his arms, his body trembled slightly, and tears couldn't stop rushing out. The bits and pieces of the years have gathered into a surging tsunami, hitting his heart one after another.
When his emotions eased a little, Geng Chaoyang reposted the Weibo of this video by chance and @ the girl.
A moment, or a long time later, Geng Chaoyang's cell phone shocked, and it was a reply sent by the other party. It was very short and only one sentence.
--I'm waiting for you.
......
Such scenes take place in various places in China. Through various social platforms, "Star Voice" spreads rapidly like a virus.
