Due to the frequent occurrence of vocal incidents by creators on the Internet, some people have suggested that creators talk less about reality and only publish ridiculous speech that cannot be provoked
The cartoonist Endo Haicheng said that although she is a cartoonist, she only thinks about how she can go to the two-dimensional world and how to get a household register to get a living income after going there, so she can only send Some erratic remarks

Have you ever said that, have you considered the feelings of people who have no household registration but are still struggling for life?
Music critic and music producer Tomohiro Tomita said that it is very important to have a good character not to be ashamed to ask others for things they do n’t understand; however, things that Google can understand in a few minutes need to go one by one Asking others is nothing more than laziness. This has nothing to do with insufficient knowledge base, just lazy. Some people are obviously lazy, but they also need a victim’s posture, suspecting others to hide and not teach him. Although Tomita himself had to ask questions

You say that, have you considered the mood of people who can’t get on Google?
The cartoonist Daxi Xiangyi shared an old story on the WIRED.jp website: “Studies show that willpower is better than success”. Onishi said that he can understand this truth very well. He had seen many people, and he was obviously better than him, but he couldn’t persist in doing what he decided to do, and eventually disappeared

The cartoonist Takahata Yamamoto also said that before his debut, there was a fellow partner who possessed his incomparable talents and was respected by everyone. However, due to the lack of ability to complete the work, there was no message. Even if the talent is not as good as people, they can insist on it silently. This kind of strength can be said to be a talent
Yamamoto does n’t have any famous best-selling works. He ’s always saying he does n’t know why he can still get a job, but he can still be a cartoonist for more than 40 years. Nowadays, people who may not know him are far better than those who know him. Many. But he thinks he can be a reference sample: even if he has no money, no power, no background, no talent, as long as he persists, he can still achieve his achievements. He hoped everyone would think like this: “Even this kind of person can come to this step, then I definitely can do it.”
However, Yamamoto doesn’t recommend everyone to hang on a tree. In addition to talent and hard work, there is also luck, and everyone must be careful about this. If you want to say why dinosaurs are extinct and mammals are booming, it is also because of luck

The cartoonist Okazaki つ ぐ お said that when he really wanted to be a cartoonist and joined a large comics research society, he already had more than 180 seniors, most of whom were far away. A man who is ahead of him in order to excel. However, only a few of them eventually became professional cartoonists. Stubbornness, perseverance, and whatever others say, perhaps the strength to persist is the talent

Have you ever said that, have you considered the mood of those who want to persist but have to give up for various subjective and objective reasons?
In the new voice of the past few days, the voice actress Ryawiko Harahara once worried that the voice actress might be replaced by AI. At the same time, 81 producers of Voice Acting Office has been very active in the use of speech synthesis technology. In this regard, Nikkei × TECH interviewed 81 Produce’s president, Masaru Nanzawa
President Nanze said that Toshiba had asked him to listen to a sample of speech synthesis technology 4 or 5 years ago. That sample converted the English speech of a foreign celebrity who basically did not speak Japanese into Japanese. The cause can be easily changed with a simple operation on the computer, and President Nanze felt a cultural shock
In the world of pictures, synthesis technologies such as motion capture are already commonplace; sound is far behind. After seeing Toshiba’s speech synthesis technology, President Nanze realized the change of the times. So he cooperated with Dentsu, who came to his door, to set up the social group Digital Voice Pallet
In the Japanese performing arts industry, there are rules set by four major industry groups (Japanese Actors Guild, Japanese Music Producers Federation, Japanese Performing Agents’ Association, and Japan Voice Actors Enterprise Association). Under these rules, it is not possible to substitute real voice actors for dubbing with synthetic speech
But Nanze believes that in areas beyond the scope of the industry agreement, synthetic speech is left to be used, such as mobile phone applications, car navigation, and medical care. In addition, he also wanted to use synthesis technology to revive the voice of the deceased person. If the voice actors of 81 Produce signed a flat voice, they once agreed to record for speech synthesis. However, before the recording was over, he had already taken a step
When cooperating with Dentsu, Nanze first stated that he didn’t want synthetic speech to buy out the voice of the voice-voice, but wanted to establish rules and systems, and pay the voice-voice every time he used the synthetic voice. They advocated the concept of “voice right”, which is also one of 81 Produce’s big plans
In Nanze’s view, currently, the technology of synthesizing speech is not perfect, it takes a lot of time and manpower, and the cost performance is low. He looks forward to further evolution. At the same time, you also need to get the understanding of voice actors. Nanze hopes that the speech synthesis technology can be developed soundly. He doesn’t want the industry created by his predecessors Kushiro Wakamatsu, because new technologies have appeared, and all of a sudden become unrecognizable, but he wants to use new technologies to improve while inheriting their predecessors
Nanze firmly believes that synthetic speech will not rob the work of voice actors, but also stems from the job content and professional skills of voice actors. Today’s seiyuu appears on the front lines, sometimes more prominent than the role. Half of them are integrated with their roles, and they publish their worldview and lifeview through webcasting and other forms, which will affect the audience. This is absolutely impossible with synthetic speech
In addition, there is a part in the acting of the voice acting that cannot be explained by theory, and replacing it with synthetic speech will also create a sense of contradiction. Digital Voice Pallet once produced the synthesized speech of the 81 Produce seiyuu Xuan Tian Zhezhang, but only for the acting part, Xuan Tian said, “This is not me.” Nanze also believes that speech synthesis technology should not pursue acting skills, but other possibilities. For example, converting the voice of a voice actor into a foreign language
