The "Ghost Blows the Lantern" section of the Reading Forum has been active again in recent months since Huayi publicly announced that it would be adapted into a web series and movie.

is even more active than when Nie Wei serialized this work.

Some news of ghost blowing out the lantern, and more old fans of ghost blowing the lantern who were blown up by Huayi's announcement, reconnected, but this time they discussed not only "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", but also what movies and TV series will look like.

"I'm looking forward to the movie, as for what the hell is that web series?"

"I learned about it, and it should be similar to a TV series, but this will only be broadcast online. ”

"I'll tell you, as soon as this thing is made into a movie or TV series, or anime or something, it will definitely turn sour. ”

"But after all, this is produced by Nie Wei, he is the original author and screenwriter, and I am still looking forward to it. ”

"My biggest hope in my heart now is Nie Wei, the author must not let me down. ”

Although many book friends are worried, there are more and more book friends who come to the reading forum "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" area every day to report, until the day when the online drama "Ghost Blows the Lantern" officially announced the release date, the number of simultaneous online people in the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" area has also exceeded 100,000, setting a new record for the number of people online at the same time in the major areas of the reading forum.

In fact, many book friends didn't expect this day to come so quickly, after all, according to previous habits, those TV series from project approval to filming, waiting for a year is short, but it has only been more than two months, and the TV series has been launched, which is really incredible in the eyes of many netizens.

"It can't be shoddy, how could it have been filmed so quickly?"

"But it's not bad to watch the trailer, and the special effects are quite shocking, I don't think it's shoddy. Of course, there are also sensible ones, and the quality of this web drama is glimpsed from the two trailers released on the Internet.

In fact, the reason why online dramas can be released quickly comes from the fact that it is different from the process of normal TV dramas.

First of all, it lacks the most troublesome censorship link, of course, it is not that there is no censorship, but compared with those TV dramas that are going to be broadcast on Star TV, the censorship of online dramas is completely like a drizzle.

What's more, since the beginning of this year, a policy has been issued from above to vigorously support the Internet culture, so many things related to the Internet have been given the green light, and the online drama culture first promoted by Nie Wei has been listed as a key plan and has been given a lot of convenience.

In addition, the broadcast mode of online dramas is not the same as the current regular TV dramas, TV series are basically two episodes a day, but because the number of online episodes is too short, only Saturday and Sunday are selected, that is, four episodes a week.

Coupled with the difference in censorship, the online drama of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Exquisite Ancient City" has actually only been completely produced in the first ten episodes so far, but the later episodes can be produced in the time when they are gathered and broadcast in the front, which is somewhat similar to the model of Korean idol dramas that are filmed and broadcast at the same time.

Under several conditions, the cycle from the start of filming to the release of this TV series has naturally been greatly shortened.

This is also why Nie Wei deliberately set up an online drama production department in the company that seems to be very similar to the functions and powers of the TV drama department, in fact, the difference between the two is quite big, in terms of content, the way of producing TV dramas, etc., instead of letting the TV drama production department adapt to the new model, it is better to directly open a separate department to completely distinguish the production methods of the two dramas, which is also a kind of competition, so that both parties can not relax.

Many netizens thought that this TV series would be broadcast at eight o'clock like a normal TV series, so many people came to the forum at seven o'clock, only to be told that the time when the online drama was launched was at midnight.

Seeing that there are nearly five hours before the TV series is launched, and there are so many book friends online at the same time, everyone begins to speculate where the story of the TV series will begin.

"I think from Grandpa Hu Bayi, after all, that paragraph is quite important. ”

"I don't think there's so much trouble, just get straight to the point, his grandfather's paragraph is at most a background, in fact, a few sentences don't affect the plot, why waste a lot of time filming that. ”

"Actually, it doesn't matter how you shoot it, as long as you don't change the content of the original book too much, I'll be satisfied, and restore the nine-story demon tower, fire ladybug, overlord salamander, black sandstorm, marching ant or something, I really want to see if these things are the same as I think. ”

"I'm the same, I'm curious about what the corpse-scented konjac looks like. ”

"Have you forgotten Brother Hongli?"

"When it comes to Hongli, I'm very curious about mercury dolls, these two 'little ancestors' scared me miserably, and they repaid the favor and moved me for a long time, I hope that the TV series can perfectly restore this pair of poor dolls. ”

"You said that "Exquisite Ancient City" was filmed in less than three months, are we waiting for another three months to see the second part?"

Some people think that this book friend has a beautiful idea, but the reality is cruel.

Some people also think that this possibility is not impossible, and if this TV series does very well, maybe it will really start working on the second part immediately.

Between everyone's laughter and laughter, time flies quickly, and before you know it, it has reached 11:50 p.m., and there are only ten minutes left, and "Ghost Blows the Lantern: Exquisite Ancient City" will be officially launched.

At this time, the number of online people in the book friend forum is still about 80,000, but the number of new posts updated has decreased significantly, because many people have already gone to Fanxing Video Network to refresh the web page at this time, after all, if the website is updated in advance, it would be good if everyone could watch it a few minutes earlier.

The good intentions of these people are really not in vain, at 11:55, a book friend subconsciously refreshed and found that the web page, which originally only had two trailers, suddenly had four more episodes.

Seeing this scene, this book friend hurriedly clicked on the first episode with excitement, and when he looked at the full forty-five minutes of time, he knew that he had finally waited for the feature film.

But isn't it updated twice a day? and what's going on with the next three or four episodes?

With curiosity, this netizen did not choose to watch the TV series for the first time, but tried to click on the third episode with the word VIP, and a line of words popped up.

"You are not a VIP user, you can't watch it in advance, and if you want to catch up on the drama in advance, it's all in Star VIP Film and Television. ”

"X !!" Seeing this letter, this netizen couldn't help but call out a national curse, obviously, this is the legendary paid chapter.

"Isn't it just a matter of waiting for a day, so I won't spend this money. While thinking so, this netizen went back to the first episode.

Unconsciously, an hour and a half passed, but this netizen didn't notice it at all, until the video on the Internet suddenly got stuck, and he realized that he had finished watching the two episodes.

"It's so pretty. The netizen who turned back behind him first sighed in his heart that this TV series was good-looking.

"But why is this gone, this is a critical period, who broke the plot!? I'm going to send the blade!" After sighing, this netizen was crazy in his heart.

It's really too fucked up for this plot.

After two episodes of the story, the plot rhythm is actually very good, and there is no delay, but after all, this is a suspenseful tomb robbery TV series, and the really exciting intention is also in this regard, but when several people have already discovered the ancient tomb, the second episode is over.

How can this not be mad!?

At this time, he finally set his sights on the third and fourth episodes with two VIP words, and the initial insistence in his heart was finally seriously shaken at this moment, thinking about the tomb of General Jin Guo in the book, or the Kwantung Army fortress, thinking about the red lion, thinking about what the mercury doll and vampire bats look like, his heart is like a cat scratching.

If the first two episodes of this TV series were poorly produced, it would have been fine, but the filming was so good, the plot rhythm was not delayed, the actors' acting skills were all online, and there was a sense of that era, the filming really had an original feeling, and the whole TV series was relaxed and exciting.

is such a good TV series, let him wait another twenty-four hours to watch two more episodes, he can't think about it.

"Anyway, this VIP only costs ten yuan a month, eh? charge it for half a year and get it for a month? This netizen summed it up, and finally spent 60 yuan to rush the starry video VIP for seven months.

After completing the recharge, he didn't care about closing the recharge page, so he hurriedly switched to the video website and clicked on the third episode of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Exquisite Ancient City".

And there are still many viewers like this netizen.

"Last night, there were 260,000 more VIP users on our website, and this value is still growing rapidly, and 47% of these new VIP users chose to recharge for more than half a year. When the staff reported, the eyes that looked at Nie Wei were full of admiration.

Because he knew best about the whole process of planning, it was Nie Wei who gave advice, so that Fanxing Video increased hundreds of thousands of VIP users in just one night, and these VIP users will also become the most loyal supporters of the website, after all, they all spent money, in today's era when the content of video websites is very similar, of course, choose to watch videos on video websites that spend money.

And Nie Wei, who listened to the staff's report, also showed a satisfied smile.

In fact, Nie Wei just used a small trick that video websites will use in the future, but in this era, it really amazed many people.

This little trick is to use the psychology of human desire, just like some in-game consumption props, such as buying a horse and matching harness, you add up the consumption points of the two props, and you will never get a whole number, often more familiar so dazzling only need a few dollars or even a few cents of points, but for such points, often you have to recharge at least ten yuan or more.

Don't look at it much, but on the basis of a huge number of users, this accumulation is very impressive.

Nie Wei's tricks are the same thing, releasing three or four episodes in advance actually does not harm the interests of ordinary users, because they only need to wait for a day, and they can also see it.

But there is such a thing as a TV series, either you can't watch it, as long as you watch it, you will watch it episode by episode, and you can't stop it.

At this time, as long as you become a VIP, you can watch three or four episodes in advance, and for many people who can't wait, it is the motivation for them to recharge VIP.

And because of the broadcast method of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Exquisite Ancient City", it is destined not to be broadcast in a month, but to take more than three months, and then launch a half-year recharge bonus activity.

Many netizens calculated and felt that they couldn't finish it in a month, but there was only a difference of 20 yuan between four months and half a year, not to mention that half a year would give a month, which is why a large number of users choose to recharge half a year VIP.

And the length of this half a year is enough to make these VIP users accustomed to watching videos on Fanxing Video Network, chasing dramas, etc., coupled with the level honor system launched by the video website, it further allows these users to take root in Fanxing Video.

didn't wait to get off work in the evening, as soon as Nie Wei went to work in the afternoon, the staff who had reported in the morning appeared in his office again, and Nie Wei reported that the number of new VIP users had exceeded 500,000.

Hearing this number, Nie Wei calculated that if nothing unexpected happened, then after the end of this "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Exquisite Ancient City", the Star website could at least increase millions of VIP users.

The VIP recharge fees earned are still secondary, and the key is that these VIP users are very likely to convert into loyal users of the website, which is the most valuable harvest in this era when users are king.

Just when Nie Wei was rejoicing at the increase in VIP users of the video website, countless viewers who had watched "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" on the Internet also began to start this TV series online.

"It's really a work of conscience, for me, the original party, this adaptation really makes me satisfied, all kinds of small details make me satisfied and moved, especially the scene where the fat man and Bayi meet against the code, I am laughing with tears, in my opinion, this is the ghost blowing the lamp in my mind. ”

"A very well-made TV series, for this TV series I filled VIP, from zero o'clock to see more than three o'clock, I watched all four episodes in one go, I didn't doze off a single time in the whole process, after watching it, I fell asleep with a pillow in an unfinished mood, I was scared to wake up in the morning, because the red calf and mercury doll came to visit the door in the dream, I just want to complain to the crew, why do you do it so realistically!"

"From the details, you can see that the crew is full of sincerity, just like the clothes that Wang Kaixuan wore when he left the factory, with bits and pieces, I compared it with the TV series, and found that the degree of restoration exceeded 90%, which was really a surprise, and made me super satisfied with the original party. ”

"Sure enough, it is produced by Huayi, it must be a high-quality product!"
