My Extraordinary Achievements 219 Voice Acting Skill

The five demos were relatively short, just slightly longer combined than the main character demo. They had all passed in a sentence or two. Chen Da Ming looked towards the people he had come in with.

Everyone was nodding, expressing no issue with these demos. All that was left was to wait for the last few demos.

Although "Chocolate factory" wasn't as famous as studios led by celebrities like "Photosynthetic Block", "729 Sound Studios" and "Bian Jiang Studio", they were still very outstanding in the professional industry, with lots of high quality works in their name. They had incredible CVs, especially in the field of video games and animation, particularly preschool animation, a department in which they excelled greatly.

This was the main reason Chen Da Ming wanted to assign the post-production voice-overs to the Chocolate Factory. Of course, there was another reason. Chen Da Ming and Charlie were very familiar and felt he could get the highest quality of work at a good price. Making money was one thing, but the other was the hope that Chen Da Ming could successfully take over outsourcing for the company's post-production voiceover tasks.

In less than an hour, Charlie had returned with the six demos Meng Fan had recorded, and the other three samples sent by the CVs during this time. There were nine demos in total, which assembled most of the important roles from "Forest Exploration". The remaining roles could be adjusted at any time.

After hearing the demos, Chen Da Ming's eyes lit up. Looking at them again, five of these roles and the narrator had been voiced by one person. This came as a shock to him. It wasn't excessive for an animation to have five or six characters voiced by one person. The surprising thing was that each one had been done very well.

After receiving the demos, Chen Da Ming could let out a sigh of relief. He politely bantered with Charlie for a few more minutes and left, hurrying to take his demos back and secure the commission.

After it was confirmed, the Chocolate Factory could officially begin recording.

At this time, Meng Fan was still in the recording studio. He had just recorded the demo for the five roles and the narrator, but the system hadn't given him any experience yet. This made Meng Fan anxious, for he didn't know if it had been because the production side hadn't confirmed these samples, or if the demos had been forgotten at the Chocolate factory, or because...The Chocolate Factory wasn't going to get this job.

But what use was worrying about such things? He might as well ask the big-bearded youth accompanying him in the recording studio for some other suitable roles he could voice over for. That animation only had five or six roles, he might as well see what jobs he could do at the moment.

The bearded man had a name that didn't match his appearance, Lou Lan. At first glance, Meng Fan heard his name was Roulan. Carefully, he sounded like Loulan, before realizing his last name was Lou.

Lou Lan was very familiar with the business aspects of the studio and had a good pair of eyes and ears. In the last two hours, he had gained an understanding of Meng Fan's range, and when Meng Fan said he didn't care for the role, he suddenly began to blabber several roles, mostly characters from animations and games.

These roles were usually randomly assigned to the voice actors in the studio, like when an animation begins official recording and needed some supporting roles aside from the carefully selected main ones that could be voiced by anyone who was available. There were little words, and the requirements were low as well.

This was the same for video game characters as well.

At the moment, the mobile game market was popular, and there were way too many voice actors that needed to voice the NPCs.

After grasping a hold of the situation, Meng Fan bluntly requested for more roles right after Charlie returned.

Charlie heard this and naturally did not refuse. In two hours' time, Meng Fan had demonstrated skills that assured Charlie of his performance. He was happy to distribute more roles to Meng Fan, only...

"Little buddy, do you want to join our studio?" Charlie asked.

If Meng Fan didn't join the studio, Charlie wasn't going to give him so many roles. After all, there were several members of the studio waiting for these commissions to pay their bills. Why should he give them to a person who wasn't even part of the studio?

Meng Fan considered the offer. "Director, I'm currently a student and don't have much free time. I don't know what kind of requirements you have for joining. If there are some rigid requirements and restrictions, I'm afraid..."

Charlie immediately understood what he meant. He had seen all the shenanigans Meng Fan had been up to, and was able to grasp the specialties in his personality. Very fast, Charlie understood where Meng Fan was coming from. He smiled. "Signing with a studio won't impose any restrictions on you. Even if you accept voiceover commissions from other studios, our studio will help you accept and complete these commissions. Only, after signing with us, your commissions will be placed through us. The saying goes, the villain is always followed by a gentleman. There is always a charter for the distribution of assets, don't you think?"

Charlie had met Meng Fan in the neighborhood. To be able to live there, he was definitely very well off. Plus based on Meng Fan's other 'jobs', he didn't seem like a person who needed the money from voice acting to pay his bills—everyone knew it was hard to make money in this industry, at least big money—hence, he had to clarify this to Meng Fan.

"If you don't need money, I'll set money as the focus point."

Charlie had some debate skills about him. He didn't want to trick Meng Fan but only wanted to increase efficiency from another perspective.

Meng Fan looked through the contract. Indeed, there weren't many restrictions on his freedom. Only there was a point that stated: no matter what kind of commission he accepted, regardless if he had found it himself or the studio had found it for him, the studio would receive a brokerage commission. This clause might have been a restriction to other people, but it wasn't to Meng Fan.

To be honest, he was willing to voice-over roles for free as long as they were available, for he didn't need the money from this job. But he had stopped himself. This kind of thing was best kept private. Him needing money was a completely different matter from other people willing to give him money, so it was best to play by the rules. Money was one thing, but the worth was another.

Meng Fan thoroughly read through the contract again, confirming it was just a business link and signed the paper.

It wasn't a bad thing he had a studio accepting commissions on his behalf.

Was he not afraid of falling into a trap?

Meng Fan really wasn't.

"Welcome!"

After signing, Charlie was overjoyed, heavily shaking Meng Fan's hand.

The first sentence that came out of Meng Fan afterward was, "Can we continue voice acting?"

Charlie burst into laughter. "Of course!"

Charlie wasn't present for the following voiceovers. Instead, it was overseen by another studio member alongside the big-bearded Lou Lan.

One after the other.

Lou Lan and the staff member looked at each other. "Another voice acting freak!"

"Ding!"

Not long after, the system had judged ten completed voice acting roles, granting him the rewards from task phase 1 of [Studio Bug]. Points +10, voice acting skills +1.
