This is the third time Abe Gao has participated in the exhibition. Of course he understands what these people are thinking.

For most exhibitors, comic expos don’t make much money, and it’s good if they don’t lose money.

The reason why I bring my works to the exhibition is more out of love and I want to share my works with more people and gain recognition from more people.

The so-called colleagues are enemies, they are both exhibitors, or they are neighboring exhibitors. It is inevitable that there will be a mentality of comparison. This kind of behavior of buying works from a booth before their own works are sold is tantamount to starting a war before they start.

Momentum-wise, I gave in first.

Especially Abe Taka and Aida-senpai, they are much younger than them at first glance.

Naturally, they couldn't bear the idea of ​​losing momentum and admitting defeat before the comic exhibition really started.

No matter what, we have to wait until the comic exhibition starts and the works go on sale!

Of course, there are many exhibitors who don't mind.

At a booth in front, an exhibitor wearing thick glasses walked over after seeing the vertical painting of Touma Kazusa.

"Can I try out the game?"

He stood in front of the standing painting of Touma Kazusa. After looking at it for a few times, he came to the booth and asked Abe Taka.

"certainly."

Abe Gao nodded and pushed the laptop in front of the man.

"Thanks."

The man with glasses politely thanked him, picked up the mouse and started playing the game.

The game starts with a scene where the male protagonist Haruki Kitahara bids farewell to Touma Kazusa in the snow at the airport, and the BGM "Unspeakable Yearning" plays.

As soon as this slightly melancholy BGM started playing, the four people at the booth nearby couldn't help but look at the game screen on their laptops.

"Is this game music original to you?"

One person couldn't help but ask.

It’s not strange for fan games to have BGM, but it’s basically a background sound to prevent the game from appearing too monotonous. The background sounds used are basically copyright-free, which won’t sound unpleasant, but will definitely not attract people.

As for "Unspeakable Yearning", it is obviously not the kind of copyright-free music, otherwise they would not feel good listening to it, but they would not have any impression.

"certainly!"

Abe Gao nodded.

He is so confident in "White Album II", which is now called "White Album", because Higashino Hirosawa later gave him the theme song and more than ten BGMs.

The script of "White Album II" is of course excellent, but until you play the game, others don't know whether your script is excellent.

But game music is different. You can tell whether it is good or not by listening to it.

Coupled with the high-quality vertical paintings of the two heroines, the quality of "White Album II" as a fan game is already amazing.

If a game like this can't sell well, Taka Abe can't think of how other fan games can survive.

The only thing that limits the game may be Taka Abe's technical ability.

But compared to the first fan game he made more than two years ago, Taka Abe's technical skills have greatly improved now.

Compared with the original "White Album II" played by Higashino Hirosawa, Taka Abe simply did not create the dynamic snow effect of the original game.

In other aspects, it is 90% similar to the original game.

Of course, compared with the original game, the biggest difference between what Higashino Hirosawa and Abe Taka has created is that there is no dubbing.

But for a fan game that also requires dubbing, the requirements are really too much.

If you can dub the game, Abe Taka feels that the game can be sold as a game from one of those big companies.

After the opening airport farewell and BGM, the game officially begins.

Nothing can be seen in the script yet, but the BGM that continuously changes the rhythm makes several people feel the intention of this game even more.

The last ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and we came to the scene where the male protagonist was practicing on the guitar.

Just when a few people thought that this song was also very good, the game screen changed and the theme song "Unexpressible Love" sounded.

There is no dubbing in the game, but Kurosawa Momiji's slightly neutral singing voice is very consistent with the image of the heroine Touma Kazusa. When several people heard this singing voice, they couldn't help but feel excited.

This game also has a theme song? Is the theme song so good?

That’s outrageous!

"This theme song is not your original creation, right?"

The fan author who didn't want to buy the game couldn't help but ask.

"It sounds good, isn't it? I told you that you won't lose money if you buy it!"

Abe Gao said with a smile.

"Someone is coming! Please keep order, everyone!"

"welcome!"

At this time, the time came to 9 o'clock, the comic exhibition venue was officially opened, and a large number of tourists came in.

At the booth in front of the venue, various welcome sounds immediately sounded.

"No! It's started!"

Seeing this, the four fan authors stopped caring about the game and quickly returned to their booths.

"Please, give me a copy of the game."

The glasses exhibitor who came from the booth in front said at this time.

"1,000 yen, thank you."

Abe Taka immediately said happily.

Considering the quality of "White Album II", 1,000 yen is already a very cheap price in Taka Abe's opinion, and he feels that the price can be set higher.

However, it was rejected by Higashino Hirosawa. Higashino Hirosawa was not just trying to make a little extra money. He could stably sell 500 copies of the game and wait until the commission was completed.

The final price was set at 1,000 yen. The reason was that there was no need to make change and it was convenient for transactions.

The man with glasses didn't say anything, handed over 1,000 yen, picked up the game and turned around to leave.

"Hey, don't leave yet, you can still draw a picture."

Abegao shouted quickly.

However, the bespectacled man just waved his hand and hurried back to his stall. It seemed that he was not very interested in the drawing.

"Abe, it's great. Even before the tourists come, we've already sold one copy!"

Aida-senpai said happily.

She has played the game once and knows that the quality of the game is very good. She is also confident about this comic exhibition.

However, she was not very familiar with the Comic Expo and didn't know what the quality of the game meant. So as the opening of the Comic Exhibition approached, she couldn't help but worry that it would be the same as before.

After Abe Gao's hard work and hard work, he only received bad results.

Before the tourists came, one copy of the game was sold, which gave her a lot of confidence.

“More will be sold!”

Abe Gao has absolute confidence.

At the front gate of the exhibition hall, a large number of tourists poured in, and long queues began to form in front of the booths of famous exhibitors.

Many tourists have very clear goals and go straight to the corresponding stalls when they arrive.

Abe Taka's stall is at the very corner, so the location is definitely not a good one.

However, there are too many tourists coming to the exhibition, and it is impossible for them all to queue up in front of the popular stalls. Many of them actually intend to buy something if they see something they are interested in.

Stalls with fewer people have become their priority.

There were few people in the corner, but many tourists came over in groups.

Abe Gao quickly pressed the recorder and played the game's theme song and some of the better BGMs in turn.

However, there are regulations at the venue. Stalls are allowed to play music, but the sound cannot be loud. Otherwise, if you are complained by nearby stalls, you will be warned. If you violate it again, you will be fined or even disqualified from exhibiting.

The scene is already very noisy and noisy. Basically, you can only hear it clearly if you get a few meters in front of the stall.

However, Abe Taka felt that it was enough. It was unrealistic to use songs to attract people from afar.

“The three-dimensional illustrations of these two characters are so beautiful!”

"Let's go over and have a look!"

The singing voice cannot travel too far, but the life-size portrait of the two heroines painted by Higashino Hirosawa is undoubtedly a killer.

Kazusa Touma and Yukina Ogiso are drawn in two vertical paintings, one in black and one in white, which is very eye-catching.

Several tourists who just wanted to take a walk first came over after seeing these two vertical paintings.

"Is this playing music from the game?"
