The Creator of the Second Dimension

Tom Granger is a common man in the Kingdom of England. He works as a company employee, doing the same thing as millions of other people, day in and day out, without passion.

One weekend in June, he came back home, and was going to play two games of "Eat Chicken" with his friends. This game on SN4 is now the best-selling game in the Kingdom of England. Almost all major game stores, supermarkets, etc. will sell the game CD Putting it in the most conspicuous position, Tom didn't even buy SN4 at first. After listening to his friends' persuasion, he only bought an SN4 and "The Last Survivor" game CD on his birthday in March this year, and was addicted to it. to date.

After playing a round, he was killed shortly after he landed and became a qualified courier. At this time, a beep sounded on his computer.

This is a popular social software in the Kingdom of England. It is similar to China's QQ, but it is a little less flexible and more serious. Naturally, there are not so many emoticons.

At present, some people have begun to use China's social software such as QQ, but it is not common. This kind of behavior is also called "hypocrisy" by some extreme people.

Tom looked at his companion who was still fighting, put down the handle, and turned to look at the computer.

A friend sent him a URL with some screenshots, which looked cute and familiar.

"What's this?"

Tom clicked on the website and found that it was Hatsune Video Network, but it was a little different.

Because of playing "The Last Survivor", Tom entered the article area of ​​this website when he was looking for strategies, but he couldn't understand Chinese, so he could only talk by looking at the pictures and learning from the screenshots. Later, he learned a little Chinese , Can understand some simple words, can understand the meaning of strategy a little bit.

Of course, he also looked at other divisions, but this is a Chinese website after all, and Chinese is an extremely difficult language. European and American countries do not offer basic Chinese courses, and at most they only take electives in high school. Therefore, Wai Guoren Watching these videos is just for fun, and you can't see the connotation clearly.

Only the live broadcast area, Tom still frequents, he remembers that there is a female anchor named [Qian], with extraordinary skills, which makes him fascinated.

There are also some virtual anchors, which Tom also likes very much, but it is a pity that there is no convenient online payment here, and there is no way to "pay money".

Generally speaking, for someone like Tom who is keen on games, Chuyin Video.com is a relatively famous website abroad, but there is still a gap.

Now, however, this website is completely in English.

Tom took a look, the format of this video website is exactly the same as that of Hatsune Video, and even many videos in it are the same, but under most of the videos, there are corresponding English subtitles, so that Tom can understand the video content.

He had been paying attention to it before clicking on it, but he couldn't understand a video in Chinese.

"So they are called Huanong Brothers."

Tom suddenly realized that he had always thought that they were the "Flower Farmers" brothers before, and he was still wondering why they were flower farmers, but they had never grown flowers.

"This bamboo rat has a lame leg and can't survive. Let's stew it today."

"Oh, it took me a long time to catch it just now. It's so flexible, this bamboo rat."

"Let's make some tableware and burn some charcoal."

"This bamboo rat is very fragrant, and the meat is also very rotten."

Since the Mandarin of Huanong Brothers is not up to standard, Tom, who is a crooked nut, basically can’t understand their words. Before, he only paid attention to creatures like bamboo rats and the beautiful rural scenery in China. But now, with After reading the subtitles, I found it very interesting.

In particular, they find all sorts of weird reasons to eat bamboo rats, and they often go to their brothers' houses to "get" things. When they don't understand, they don't think so. Now with subtitles, it's really funny.

Not all of the Huanong Brothers videos here, just some early ones, which seemed to be still being translated, so Tom looked at the others.

He clicked on a video of Li Qiqi, and there were already a lot of bullet screens in this video, all of which were written in English, compared to the Chinese bullet screens on the original audio and video website, which made Tom feel more friendly.

"It's so beautiful."

Li Qiqi has always been one of the favorite video creators of foreign Hatsune video users, because her videos have no lines, only simple text explanations. After translating his video, he uploaded it to a foreign video website, which gained a lot of clicks and made Li Qiqi famous overseas.

Of course, Tom felt that what was more important was that Li Qiqi was very beautiful. This was different from the hot and sexy beauties in Europe and the United States, but a quiet woman full of grace and restraint, which made people's hearts flutter.

Moreover, Li Qiqi's videos are basically some things in traditional Chinese culture, and this kind of exotic videos are more popular with the public.

At least in Tom's view, Chuyin Video Network is more like a popular video website with a majority of young people.

On the front page of the overseas edition, as well as the promotion of "The Garden of Words", Tom usually doesn't watch animations, but after being influenced by Hatsune Video Network, he also has a little understanding, but these animations are all in Chinese. You can go to some resource sharing websites to download the "English version" subtitles.

Because Huaxia animation is famous all over the world, but there are very few official English versions. Generally, only those broadcasted by TV stations will be bought for copyright and dubbed. After entering the Internet age, a large number of excellent animations are broadcast on the Internet, so naturally There is no English version anymore.

Therefore, an organization such as the Englishization Group was born among the people. They produced English subtitles and made a certain contribution to the spread of Huaxia animation in the English circle.

However, in recent years, China's video sites have also begun to open up European and American battlefields, such as Tomato Video Network. After they entered the European and American markets, the first thing they did was to crack down on pirated subtitle groups. In the past, after an animation was broadcast, all There were several subtitle groups vying to make subtitles. The most prosperous time was "Magic Girl Madoka Magica", and there were twelve subtitle groups at the same time.

But this is a gray area after all. As soon as Tomato Video Network intervened in the behavior of using love to generate electricity, it directly sent lawyer letters to several members of the subtitle group, and even contacted the police to arrest a member of the subtitle group. Most of the subtitle groups have disappeared. At the same time, the English culture of Tomato Video Network has not kept up with it, resulting in a delay of at least one to two weeks for the English version of its own animation, and Tomato Video Network has no copyright works, such as "Music Girl" ", because of this, no subtitle team dared to do it, and there were fierce quarrels about this matter in various forums.

Some people think that legalization is a historical trend. The era of relying on the resources of the subtitle group to watch animations will eventually pass. Even if the genuine version has flaws, it should support the genuine version.

Another group of people think that the genuine ones have to provide high-quality services, and they should resolutely resist the one-size-fits-all one-size-fits-all ones like Tomato Video.

After seeing these debates, Tom was also a little shaken, but after all, it didn't have much to do with him. Suo Ren Huyu's games are basically sold worldwide, and there are versions in various languages.

Hearing "The Garden of Words" from a friend who loves watching animation before, Tom went in curiously, spent money to buy this animation movie, and decided to watch it.
