"This will also help us have a better start."
Himeko nodded.
And so, under Xia Wen's direction, they began filming the short interviews.
-----------------------------------
Everyone felt a bit strange.
Because the characters in the story have the same names as those in reality!
Such a thing never happened in any of the previous series they had worked on.
"What's so strange about it?
You are the soul of Honkai: Star Rail. This world of Honkai: Star Rail is also created by all of you together."
With Xia Wen's words, the sense of strangeness in everyone's minds disappeared immediately.
Right.
It's their own world after all.
Kafka is Kafka, and Herta is Herta.
No one else can play themselves.
Once they understood this, the filming was completed in no time.
It wasn't time-consuming; all they needed to do was stand in front of the camera:
"Hi, I'm Kafka."
"Hello! I'm March 7th, March's March, and Seven's Seven!"
"Hi everyone, I'm Herta."
And that's it.
In previous promotional interviews, the appearances were usually: "Hello everyone, I'm actor XX, playing XX in the drama."
But with Mihoyo, the style was completely different.
It was as if the characters from the drama really appeared in reality.
Although that was indeed the case.
A moment later.
After Xia Wen finished editing the promotional interview, they checked the time.
It was exactly 11:59.
"From today on, every Saturday at noon, it will be MiHoYo's precise clock."
Xia Wen smiled.
Then, they informed everyone of this news.
"Wow, I'm so excited!"
March 7th said, rubbing her hands with excitement.
"Even someone like me is a bit excited."
Herta's face also showed anticipation and a smile.
Then, everyone found their seats in pairs and took out their phones to log onto the official website, waiting for the update.
Xia Wen leisurely occupied a large sofa.
"I bought a few server sets urgently yesterday. Now the website will be much smoother. If viewers come more often, they will develop a habit of visiting the official website. Great, everything is going smoothly!"
Lying on the sofa, Xia Wen thought contentedly.
At this moment, Xia Wen felt a faint fragrance.
"There's no more space, boss~ let me squeeze in with you."
Kafka, who had appeared next to Xia Wen, sat down directly.
Without waiting for Xia Wen to speak, she leaned forward, peering at Xia Wen's phone.
The distance between them quickly closed, eventually touching.
"Uh, what happened?"
Xia Wen was taken aback by Kafka's perfect profile and upper body at this angle.
He couldn't help but take a deep breath and asked.
"Hmm? I was in a hurry this morning and didn't bring my phone."
Kafka said naturally.
"And…"
Kafka continued, pointing around.
Xia Wen looked over.
The few seats available were already occupied.
Himeko, March 7th and Herta were sitting on a large sofa, while Welt was alone on a small chair.
Apart from that, only the large sofa where Xia Wen was sitting remained.
"Alright."
Xia Wen shrugged; it wasn't important.
What mattered was that the phone in his left hand had already started playing Mihoyo's logo.
The black screen ended.
Kafka appeared in the center of the screen.
Accompanied by cheerful music.
Kafka was playing with the cards in her hand on the screen.
Various cool card tricks were showcased, and finally, Kafka, with a smirk, threw a card that revealed the Honkai: Star Rail logo.
"This story is not about the deliberate fate."
The song from Robin also played at the right moment.
Although he had seen the PV many times, it was the first time Xia Wen saw it performed by the 3D characters.
He was unconsciously drawn into it and Kafka was even more so.
Her eyes were glued to the screen. Because there was only one phone, their shoulders gradually pressed together and finally touched.
However, no one noticed this.
Only the screen continued to flash.
The main characters appeared one by one.
In Belobog, everyone ran forward with serious expressions with a catchy background music.
Every scene matched with enticing visuals.
Even Kafka and the others, as the main characters, were eagerly wanting to see the real story unfold.
Xia Wen's thoughts were different.
Some scenes and some lyrics.
From the perspective of someone who had already seen the plot, he found that everything could correspond to each other.
In the scene where the Skywalker appeared, the lyrics were "Goodbye to the past."
And after the appearance of Tingyun, the lyrics were "Secrets gradually revealed."
When Dan Heng stood under a pile of red maple leaves, the lyrics were "The past is no longer."
The deep meaning and hints in the visuals.
Current viewers definitely cannot understand.
But after the plot finishes and they look back at this segment, it will be another small surprise.
As the visuals continued, the space station, Belobog, and the characters from the Xianzhou Luofu all appeared.
Seele wielded a scythe handsomely and the surroundings were filled with quantum fissures.
Yanqing looking like a classic young swordsman!
In the icy snow of Belobog a gigantic robot appeared.
It seemed like an unbeatable foe.
With the rhythmic music, everyone stood together, facing the huge robot, like a final battle in a youthful hot-blooded manga.
The fast-changing visuals made everyone's eyes not dare to blink.
Fearing they might miss some wonderful part.
The cuts in the visuals became even quicker.
The characters from the Luofu flashed by one by one.
One regret here was although the Xianzhou promotional materials were shot with Jing Yuan and others present, the only one missing was Jing Liu.
So this frame was replaced with Jing Yuan's handsome pose.
Then, Xia Wen's character, Caelus, started to show off his handsome artwork.
Holding the Flame Spear, charging forward.
The image of Star God Nanook also appeared with special effects.
If the previous three PVs focused on individuals. This interstellar travel MV was entirely about showcasing the plot, a lot of more detailed settings and visuals were released making everyone not dare to miss a single frame.
Until the end, they were reluctant to part with it.
"I want to watch it again!"
"Oh my god! I can't wait to see the official plot tomorrow!"
"I, March 7th, will definitely look super cool in Herta Space Station!"
March 7th said with anticipation, holding her phone.
"Cough, little March, don't rush."
Herta covered her mouth and laughed lightly, "The audience is more anxious than you."
"Huh?"
March 7th scratched her head, not understanding what Herta meant.
"Look at the comments section."
