Du Caige only vaguely knew that "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" had only been uploaded for a few days, and it already had a lot of social influence.

Many Weibo, as well as post bars, broke the news, saying that there are friends around you (is this friend you are talking about?) according to the description in "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" to stand on the pile and practice martial arts.

Some people say that they have practiced a little fame, and some people say that they have not gained anything for the time being.

Someone simply laughed on the side: You idiots, take it for real. You might as well go and practice qigong!

So the qigong practitioners were also caught, and they asked in a voice: What's wrong with the qigong practitioners? We qigong practitioners eat your rice? Quarrel and quarrel, what is the meaning of our qigong practice?

So there was a scuffle.

It's a lot of noise.

Behind the melee on Weibo and Tieba is the rapid expansion of the readership of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake".

It's only been a few days since it was uploaded, and the collection has exceeded 650,000.

It's horrible!

After all, the audience of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is actually not as wide as "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

Guoshu Liu, to put it bluntly, is a kind of modern martial arts.

It's just that it pays more attention to the design of the fight than traditional martial arts, pays attention to realism, and the protagonist is often not as tall and majestic as traditional martial arts.

"Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is read by the whole people, regardless of age, occupation, or gender, you can read it, and you can get a good reading experience.

And "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is basically only suitable for martial arts lovers.

But at present, judging from the momentum, "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is no less than the original "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

This is something that Du Caige did not expect.

It can only be said that the people of Dahua have a martial arts dream in their minds.

Although there are no three giants of gold, ancient and yellow in this world, a group of famous masters and masters who write martial arts have also emerged, bringing a prosperous era of martial arts.

It also caused a huge influence on martial arts.

Of course, over the years, with the rise of the Internet and the rise of fantasy, traditional martial arts have also been declining.

People have the need to read martial arts, but martial arts are not innovative and cannot meet people's reading needs.

At this time, "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" came into being.

The fire of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is in response to the sentence "If you don't forget, you will have a memory".

The audience of tens of millions of martial arts is all potential readers of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake"!

According to the data analysis and calculation conducted by the founding Chinese network, the subscription of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is expected to catch up with "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in the future.

This is something that no one expected before the release of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake".

Du Caige didn't expect it, after all, on earth, the influence of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is an order of magnitude apart.

On the other hand, the first volume of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" has long been completed, and the gunslinger has already begun to write the second volume.

Du Caige, Shi Kejian, and Lu Xudong all predicted a big decline in their subscriptions, but unexpectedly, this situation did not occur.

At the end of the first volume, the collection of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" was 340,000.

The average booking is only more than 50,000.

The subscription ratio is close to one in seven.

The subscription ratio is lower than Hemingway's other basic books, because after all, there are physical books that are sold at the same time.

But now, the average order is still slowly improving, and the follow-up of the second volume is also very impressive.

The average subscription came to 70,000, and the 24-hour follow-up of each chapter was almost more than 30,000.

This data is very healthy.

It shows that there is no serious loss of readers.

On the contrary, new readers are constantly entering the pit.

The general evaluation of the chapters written by the gunman is that the writing is no worse than Hemingway's.

Although the control of the rhythm is insufficient, overall, the quality has not decreased much.

It can be seen that the style of writing is very different from Hemingway.

However, because of the use of Hemingway's setting, and Hemingway's own writing of the outline and the biography of the character, you can still vaguely see a little Hemingway's style.

Therefore, the reader is quite acceptable.

Although the subscription of this book is the lowest one of Du Caige.

It's even lower than "The Old Man and the Sea".

"The Old Man and the Sea" has the attention of two Nobel Prize bigwigs, and many people are willing to spend 9 cents and 9 to watch it.

Even if you can't read it and don't like it, you don't mind subscribing to one.

So the subscriptions have already surpassed the 100,000 mark.

Although the subscription of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a little lower, there is still room for growth, and secondly, after all, it is a physical book released simultaneously, and Du Caige's money is not less.

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" continues to be serialized slowly, although the update speed is not fast, but the quality is still very good, because Du Caige wrote it with all his heart.

Although readers are disgruntled and threaten to abandon books at every turn, in reality both collections and subscriptions are slowly growing.

Those who said they were going to abandon the book a month ago are still clamoring to abandon the book after the latest chapter a month later.

All of them are "really fragrant".

Du Caige saw through their lust and inwardness, and looked at the teeth and claws, in fact, they were all "real fragrance" physiques, of course they would not care.

......

After packing his simple luggage and stuffing his newly purchased laptop specifically for code words into his suitcase, a very energetic guy came over to help him carry his luggage downstairs.

This guy is the nanny that Duan Xiaochen is very considerate to him.

will take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation during the filming, and also act as a driver, and be responsible for helping him block alcohol.

As for why other people's nannies are beautiful girls, and his nanny is a spiritual guy, don't delve into this.

During this time, Du Caige was busy with the company's affairs, busy handling, and selecting roles.

Liu Zifei is not idle, she is looking for a suitable crew and looking for a filming location.

According to the script of the micro-film version of "Those Years" provided by Du Caige, there are not many places that need to be taken on location.

Basically, you can get it in and around the magic capital.

Du Caige has already set the tone: how much money you have, how many things you do.

3 million micro-films, can only be said to be quite abundant.

It can be said that it is much more well-funded than the crew of "Crazy Stone" on Earth.

But there will never be so much money that there is nowhere to burn.

During the filming of this film, we tried to keep improving.

But if it's something that's not too important and burns a lot of money, try to settle it.

Use good steel on the blade.

The spirit guy drove the nanny car and sent Du Caige to the Modu Film and Television Base to meet the crew.

There are quite a few shots to be shot here.

The meeting place is the hotel's large conference room, and when the time comes, the number of people is counted first.

Although it is only a micro-film, there are a lot of people in the crew.

There are thirteen people in the director team, including the director Du Caige, four assistant directors, the production team and the scene reporter.

The four assistant directors include the actor assistant director, the script assistant director, the scene assistant director, and Liu Zifei, the assistant director who takes care of everything.

The number of people in the photography group is also quite large, and Du Caige is ready to arrange 3 cameras, that is, three groups of photography.

The total number of photographers, three groups of photographers plus their assistants, etc., is a total of 16 people.

The lighting group is also a large population, with a total of 12 people.

The drama crew has the largest number of people, including 15 drivers, as well as field affairs, etc., doing all kinds of chores, a total of 37 people.

There are 21 people in total.

The recording team consists of 8 people.

And then because there are no fight scenes, no battle scenes, there is no action guidance, no demolition group, okay.

In addition, in terms of the cast group, the heroine Xu Qingya and the second female Guo Lingjie. The male protagonist Jiang Youxi, if the male supporting role, Du Caige wrote three male protagonists' friends in the script.

That's the 6 main actors.

Fortunately, except for Jiang Youxi, they are not big names, and they are not equipped with nannies.

There are also a few supporting roles with slightly more scenes.

There are a total of 13 people in the cast group.

As for the supporting roles with fewer scenes, only showing one or two faces, Du Caige plans to let the staff in the crew make cameos, and he is still confident in his ability to train actors.

Even if someone has never had acting experience, he is confident that he will not make a mistake when the other party says a line or two in front of the camera.

The production team has not yet entered the group for the time being, and only Chu Jixiang, who is idle and panicked, has entered the group with the title of producer.

Those who are responsible for publicity and post-production will not follow the crew.

So the number of people in the crew is 121 people.

This number is auspicious.

11 squared.

Singles X-Singles.

After counting the number of people, Du Caige presided over a meeting, mainly about the discipline of the crew in the future, as well as the general work arrangement, the responsibilities of each group, and the planned filming progress.

After the meeting, it was noon, and Du Caige invited everyone to have a hearty lunch at the hotel.

In the afternoon, I came to the studio, held a simple start-up ceremony, and began to set up.

After filming some footage here, the crew will go to a nearby school, Magic City No. 17 Middle School, to film, and will also find some teachers and students from No. 17 Middle School to be extras.

As for the press conference or anything, Du Caige didn't plan to do it at all.

Start it quietly, finish it quietly, and wait until the later stages of production to start the promotion.

Dream Chasing Mutual Entertainment is now mainly low-key.

If you want to be high-profile, you have to wait until Shu Yihuan's new film starts shooting, then there is high-profile value.

"Unit 1 is OK. ”

"Unit 2 is OK. ”

"Unit 3 is OK. ”

"The lights are OK. ”

"Props are OK. ”

"The actors are in place. ”

Everyone waited for Du Caige to give orders.

After carefully checking the placement of props and the position of the camera, Du Caige calmly announced: "The 124th scene, one shot, the first time." Field-to-board and begin!"

This scene is not difficult, that is, the male protagonist played by Jiang Youxi is reading hard in the room.

There are no lines, only the various facial expressions and movements of the male protagonist alone.

With Jiang Youxi's acting skills, it is easy to control this lens.

Choosing a simple shot to get off to a smooth start is a common practice for many directors.

Sure enough, this one shot passed without a hitch.

After shouting "CUT", Du Caige looked at the monitor and said, "Yes, it's very fast." ”

Jiang Youxi showed a sunny and charming smile: "Of course, I have already started to prepare." ”

"Keep one, shoot again. Du Caige said.

Here, the filming progress is progressing in an orderly manner.

Next to him, under Du Caige's arrangement, Liu Zifei was giving a lecture to Xu Qingya and Guo Lingjie, who lacked acting experience.

Today, I mainly focus on shooting the hero's shots, because among this group of actors, Jiang Youxi has the most experience in filming and the best acting skills.

will also shoot a few sets of male supporting scenes, those male supporting actors are all eighteenth-tier actors, with rich experience in dragon sets, and their acting skills are acceptable.

As for Xu Qingya and Guo Lingjie, Du Caige plans to wait for two days, they adapt to the atmosphere of the crew, and Liu Zifei also tells them that the drama is almost complete, and then shoots some simple shots of them to let them slowly enter the state.
