Miyou meme encyclopedia: English dubbing strike.
Since last year, the English dubbing strike abroad has caused a lot of controversy, resulting in the lack of English dubbing in the current Genshin Impact, but what exactly is this? In the past, miHoYo found a non-union dubbing studio abroad to cooperate with, which has nothing to do with the current SAG actors union strike.
They have a rule that union employees cannot be involved in non-union projects, and this union mainly negotiates in the areas of film, television and animation, and has less management over game dubbing.
In addition, miHoYo is very generous in dubbing, so in order to make money and gain fame, many English dubbing actors choose to do private work secretly. After the SAG union started the strike and strengthened internal management, those English dubbing actors who violated the rules and took non-union projects began to support the strike in order to avoid being punished by the union.
The union will also not hold them accountable during the strike for the sake of the overall situation. However, these people are now jealous of the non-union members who are still working on miHoYo projects, and want to bring miHoYo into the union, so that they can not only continue to work, but also avoid being punished after the strike ends.
In fact, they began to constantly create pressure on miHoYo through public opinion, but this would make it impossible for those non-union British voice actors to work, causing miHoYo to be caught in a dilemma.
To sum it up simply, I need to work, but I can't go to work, and you can't fire me. Their union also targeted miHoYo, saying that miHoYo hired so many union employees but refused to join the union, which was not in line with industry rules.
They were asked to sign an extremely unfair treaty, which stipulated that miHoYo could only use voice actors from the guild to dub English dubbing for all its games. They also restricted miHoYo from training and using AI voice actors, and for those voice actors who were not from the guild, SAG also came up with a solution: you can pay me a few thousand dollars as a membership fee, and I will take a portion of your salary as protection money for the AI in the future.
The latest situation is that miHoYo decided to change the dubbing in order to break out of this vicious circle. The latest change of the voice of Kinichi and Ying caused a lot of uproar. Because the jobs of the original dubbing were affected, the new dubbing just sent a message to thank miHoYo and the previous dubbing, and was insulted by everyone, almost calling them scabs.
Once this precedent is set, it is only a matter of time before the rest of the people are replaced. It is worth mentioning that the most outrageous voice actor among this group, Paimon, posted a video saying that the strike is just and those who oppose our voices are idiots.
She was actually working in a job that was not affected by the strike, so she could lead the pace while working, and explained that she was disabled and needed to work to make a living.
Moreover, he had previously only deducted fees from miHoYo for unpaid wages and lack of political correctness. However, from a high-level perspective, the root cause of these problems is that these British voice actors wanted to be nice, so they chose to violate the union agreement and take orders privately.
Now, because they are afraid of being held accountable, they choose to swim with Lamia, which has led to the lack of hero support in Genshin Impact. Netizens on the Internet have also seen clearly that these people are not pursuing workers' rights, but their own interests.
So some people started to support replacing the voice actors, so that the voice acting of Genshin Impact could be back on track, and things are still brewing, and it will take time to see what the outcome will be. However, given MiHoYo's attitude, the worst outcome would be to follow the example of Honkai Impact 3rd, which only has Chinese and Japanese voice acting, so that the world can experience Asian culture.
Genshin Impact Hu Tao: "So those guys are shooting themselves in the foot?"
Honkai Impact 3rd Kiana: "Not only did he smash his own foot, he also smashed his own rice bowl."
Emerald from Star Dome Railway: "It was wrong for them to take private jobs without permission, and they also went through so much trouble. Now they can only suffer the consequences."

Miyou Encyclopedia: The disappearance of mods.
Many people have come across various mods for Genshin Impact's Star Dome Railway, or have tried it themselves. Since Honkai Impact 3, there have been various communities dedicated to modding characters, and the official community also supported mods.
However, an accident caused miHoYo to ban the development of the mod. What exactly happened?
Before 3, there were many communities for Honkai Impact rd, such as ME Club and Anti-Entropy Forum, which produced many high-quality mods with love. Some of them even won the official competition and were put on the official server.
At that time, the community authors had made three agreements with miHoYo that they would not make mods for the existing costumes in Honkai Impact 3rd that would affect profits. This also allowed Honkai Impact 3rd to retain the mod launcher interface, making it easier for mod authors to unify the format and play with players.
However, there is still a threshold for getting started with mods, which has led to many people making profits from it, and some even accepting R18 mods at high prices. Although mod authors work hard to make models, it is reasonable to charge some money, but this has deviated from the essence of Internet sharing.
There are also many people who steal the fruits of others' labor and sell mods, which has caused this circle, which is already in a gray area, to gradually change. However, if the official intervenes rashly, it will inevitably hit the motivation of mod authors, and these mods have also produced a lot of high-quality secondary creations.
So miHoYo pretended not to see it, and the problem dragged on until the summer of 2019, when the official suddenly shut down the interface of the mod launcher, triggering a large number of discussions in the mod group.
The last news I got was that someone took the R18 mod to the official customer service because they couldn't draw the Herrscher of Reason. I could have turned a blind eye to it before, but now I have to shut it down.
Without the official convenient channel, the enthusiasm for playing Honkai Impact 3rd mods has been declining. After the release of games such as Genshin Impact, Celestial Railway, and Zone 3: Zero, the official has spoken to the public about the problem of mods.
But the mod community is basically in a position where they are afraid not to use it, afraid not to use it, and afraid not to call for it if it is banned.
Genshin Impact Finina: "If I remember correctly, this program allows us oranges to have many different clothes to wear. It's a pity that it's gone now."
Space Wanderer Gao Xuan: "It can't be said that it's gone, but it's more dangerous to use it now."
Honkai Impact 3rd Alicia: "What a pity! I was looking forward to seeing Dr. Mobius wearing all kinds of cute pink dresses!"
Honkai 3 Mebius: "...Get lost!"

Miyou Encyclopedia: Skipping the Court Trial Plot.
Some time ago, miHoYo sent a lawyer's letter to a bar friend named Xiaoxiao Fengxi, asking him to stop infringing, apologize and pay 20 yuan in compensation.
What did this bar friend do? He posted a lot of negative comments about MiHoYo on the small TV and the forum. It is said that the document is 363 pages long. More than 100 pages of it are all notarized screenshots of his posts on the forum and the small TV.
These comments were not about dissatisfaction with the game, but pure accusations, so the defendant was not wronged at all. It is hard to imagine the expressions of the court and the lawyers after reading these comments on the forum.
As the moderator of the Ghost Bar, he swore that his family ran a law firm. According to the court hearing notice, the time was April 25, 4, which was some time ago. What did Xiao Xiao Feng Xi do in the past six months?
He first sought help from fellow forum members on the forum for a way out of the impasse, but his friends were helpless, saying that such professional matters should be dealt with directly by a lawyer. Xiaoxiao Fengxi had no choice but to hire a lawyer.
I don't know if his law firm is real. When I asked for help from a lawyer, the lawyer said that there is no possibility of overturning the case, and the best outcome is out-of-court mediation, an apology and a smaller fine.
We don't know what the defendant was thinking, but when he heard these words, he concluded that the lawyer had talked about miHoYo's money, and posted the lawyer's box-opening video on the forum for netizens to scold him.
