Chapter 519: Brewing That Must Be Something

The idea of writing a new book, Xu Qing has actually been around for a while. There are many classics in the previous life, and it's a pity not to take them out.

But in the final analysis, there is always a transition period from the release of a work to its peak. Especially in the case of online novels, the process of IP speculation is indispensable.

The potato god's "Martial Arts" was completed in one or three years, but in the end, it was adapted into a TV series in 18 years. And the potatoes of one or three years have actually accumulated quite a lot of popularity by relying on the previous two works. The works of well-deserved god-level authors who have become gods will take five years to complete their operation.

It can be seen that there is always an interval between a work from popularity to official adaptation of film and television dramas.

It's a very simple reason, if Xu Qing saves enough investment in advance, by the way, through the film and television drama adaptation of "Tomb Robbery Notes" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", he has already cultivated the team around him. In fact, even if you don't go through the channel of the novel, you can directly take out the script, and you can shoot a work with excellent results.

The full version of "Martial Arts" has not yet come out before Xu Qing's rebirth. But with the ability of the script, the effect of filming should indeed not be bad.

But in the final analysis, without the previous popularity base, even if the level of the work is very high, the popularity of the TV series will definitely be much lower than the popularity of the popular novel filmed five years after it was brewed.

Even if it's exactly the same thing as the shooting.

To put it simply, if a god-level work rises from the Internet first and accumulates a massive amount of popularity, after five years of brewing IP, it is easy to attract investment on the one hand. On the one hand, the audience has already read the content of the novel, and many times there is no need to waste time in some trivial places.

In the past, fans of novels would come to cheer for film and television dramas. So in the end, in terms of popularity, revenue, and so on, we can come up with very good results.

But the same god-level work, if you skip the previous steps. Without these advantages, even if the actors, investment, post-production special effects, etc. are all exactly the same, the final popularity and income are likely to be less than half of the previous situation.

Moreover, I haven't heard of any TV series that can be rewritten into a novel after it becomes popular.

So if you skip these steps, on the one hand, the final film and television drama will be deducted. On the other hand, it is almost equivalent to discarding the achievements that these masterpieces could have achieved in the world of fiction.

At the beginning, Xu Qing did not choose those top divine books that were the most popular in the previous life. Instead, he chose "Notes on Tomb Robbery" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", which are phenomenal, but they are not really at the peak level.

On the one hand, because Xu Qing's radio station at that time was indeed more suitable for works with the theme of "Notes on Tomb Robbery". If you tell an inspirational fairy story in the middle of the night, a good work will definitely be noticed, but in short, it will definitely be dusty.

In addition, the two works on the theme of tomb robbery are actually suitable for Xu Qing and the team around Xu Qing to practice.

"Notes on Tomb Robbery" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" are indeed phenomenal works, and among many tomb robbing fans, they are indeed classics that are difficult to surpass.

But the actual situation is that Xu Qing's appreciation level is actually more popular. To put it simply, it is a work that most readers like, and Xu Qing often likes it too.

These two tomb robbery works are phenomenal masterpieces, and when Xu Qing was a writer in his last life, he also wanted to rub the popularity of the theme of tomb robbery. So at that time, it was carefully studied.

But in the final analysis, in Xu Qing's heart, he actually prefers those popular works of fairy tales and fantasy.

Such a classic, since it is going to be moved over, of course, it can't be dusted because of Xu Qing.

So those classic works, since Xu Qing is going to move over, he must follow the normal steps and come step by step.

I don't have to wait five years before I start working, but at least, I can write it now, and I can shoot my own work in two or three years. I wanted to shoot an IP masterpiece when I got the time, only to find that I hadn't started to speculate on IP.

As for writing the work first, Xu Qing certainly thought about it. The more classic the work, the better it is to allocate the longest gestation period. So the most classic books don't have to be taken out now.

Xu Qing considered that he could first choose two suitable works from the more than a dozen areas on the list of Hurun's original literary IP value.

After reminiscing, Xu Qing finally decided to take out "Zhu Xian" and "Sword in the Snow", which ranked fourteenth and seventeenth.

These are two quite classic works, and in the hearts of many fans, these two rankings are actually definitely low. Even if it is squeezed into the top ten, it is two god-level works that can convince the public.

And in this ranking range, Xu Qing himself also thinks that these two works are really suitable for film and television drama adaptations.

"Zhu Xian" ranks higher on the list, and this kind of classic has left too many feelings. For a long time, "Zhu Xian" is one of the most popular works. During the same period, only "How the Bad Guy Was Made" could compete with "Zhu Xian" in popularity. It's a pity that "Bad Guy" has gradually been forgotten because of the subject matter.

Xu Qing is also very fond of "Zhu Xian", but in comparison, he prefers the kind of enthusiasm of "Sword in the Snow".

Xu Qing made the decision that his next work was to take out "Sword in the Snow" first.

The advantages are as follows:

Passionate enough to resonate with the reader's audience.

The characterization is very successful, and even several villains have left a considerable impression on readers. Before Xu Qing's team is completely enriched, such works can just help Xu Qing heat up the popularity of several of his own people.

is more inclined to the style of martial arts, and the special effects are a little less demanding than those Xianxia fantasy masterpieces.

And in the end, even the theme song is a lot simpler. First of all, there is a theme song of "Sword in the Snow" on the Internet, and there is also a video version with characters. And this video has actually been very popular on the Internet for a while. It is really suitable for use as a promotional and opening song.

Even the ending song, Xu Qing has actually thought about it. In Xu Qing's opinion, the song "Leaving People Sorrowful" is quite suitable as the ending song of "Sword in the Snow". Especially at the end of the film, the atmosphere is just right.
