Chapter 163: Spoilers
While Li Kunsheng was speaking, a crew member sent the plot script and plan to Ni Xi and others.
Ni Xi opened it and looked at it, and found that the plot sub-script is a script related to the role played by Ergou, and because it is for dogs, most of them are descriptions of what kind of actions and postures should be done, unlike normal scripts, which are more character dialogues. This thing is very boring, and the interest is far worse than the original "Legend of the Divine Dog" that Ni Xi read before, so he looked at the plan below after flipping through it.
This plan is simpler than the plot sub-script, just a few pages, mainly to explain the relevant arrangements for these participating pet dogs of the crew.
When everyone was reading the plan, Li Kunsheng said: "What arrangements the crew will make next, the plan in your hands is written, so I won't go into details." Of course, if there is an unexpected factor, we may not necessarily go according to the plan, and I hope you can understand this. โ
According to what is written in the plan, because the original book of the "Legend of the Divine Dog" TV series has not yet been written, it is filmed in seasons according to a popular method in the film and television industry. This time, the first season is naturally filmed, and it is expected to be 20 episodes, and each episode is only about 35 minutes of content excluding the beginning, ending, and commercials, so the whole season is about 700 minutes of content. Of course, after the actual shooting, it will be edited, and the content will definitely be more, but it is estimated that it will be more than 1,000 minutes, no more than 10 big movies.
After the filming of the first season, look at the response after the broadcast, if there are many people watching and the income is good, the second season will be filmed. The interval between this is usually one year, of course, it can be half a year if it is fast.
Foreign TV dramas have long been filmed and broadcast in this way, and it has only been introduced in China in the past two years. Therefore, Ni Xi was not surprised to see it.
What he cares about is that this time he only shoots one season, which means that he doesn't spend too much time here with Ergou - you know, many large-scale TV series have been filmed for half a year or even more than a year in the past.
According to the plan, the crew plans to finish filming this season within three months. And it is filmed in several groups at the same time, so that each actor needs to spend less time in the crew.
Finally, the plan states that the crew will officially start filming in a week. During this week, Ni Xi and others can seize the time to train their pet dogs according to their respective scripts to reduce the time spent on filming.
After Li Kunsheng finished speaking, he asked aloud: "Do you have any other questions to ask?"
"Nope. โ
The preparation and planning of the crew are much more detailed and rigorous than Ni Xi and others imagined, so Ni Xi and others have no doubts for the time being after watching it.

Three days later, in the crew compound, Ni Xi and others took their pet dogs to train under the guidance of the crew staff.
Ergou naturally has no problem here, because it can understand almost all people's words (Mandarin plus some Ni *** dialects), and its IQ is comparable to that of a human teenager, so it has already passed most of the content in the script at hand under the leadership of Ni Xi.
The reason why it's most, not all, is because there are a lot of rivalries with other pet dogs.
In the rivalry between the two dogs and people, Ni Xi played various roles to help it try it again. But the dog's rivalry is not so easy to do - of course, Ni Xi can also pretend to be a pet dog like he tried with Kang Dandan before, but he is a human being, not other pet dogs, so this actually has no training effect.
And Wang Ning also instructed Ni Xi and others: If you want to shoot in the future without spending too much time, it is best to cooperate with each other in advance if there is a rivalry between the pet dogs. After all, one dog is difficult enough to control, and the play of two dogs or even more dogs is naturally even more difficult to control.
Therefore, after accompanying Ergou to try the opponent's play, Ni Xi tried to find other pet dogs in the crew before trying to practice the rivalry between dogs and dogs.
According to the original book and script, the one who has the most rival scenes with Ergou is Lai Ping's Golden Retriever Duke, and the middle-aged uncle Yang Bo's string dog Kunzi.
In the script of the first season, the duke plays the role of the protagonist Luo Tianyi's "good best friend", who is actually a pet dog raised by Su Huainan, a young man who loves Luo Tianyi in his heart. And Kunzi plays the dog brother when Ergou wanders, but according to the development of the script, Kunzi will be blackened later and called one of the villain bosses. But Chu Qingxi also said that at the end of the original work in the future, she will make Kunzi better again.
"I'm giving you a spoiler, don't talk nonsense to others, spoilers affect popularity. At that time, Chu Qingxi said this to Ni Xi and Kang Dandan.
Although Chu Qingxi's personality is a little introverted, she has become very lively after getting acquainted with people, and even occasionally a little naughty - in the end, she is still a girl after all.
As for the fact that there are no names of the pet dog characters in the play in the above description, it is also a new decision made by the crew after consultation with Chu Qingxi for the needs of filming - in order to allow everyone to better control the dogs, the names of the characters will be changed to their real names during filming. For example, in the play, the second dog is called the second dog, and the duke is also called the duke.
Walking around the compound, Ni Xi found Lai Ping, who was training with the Duke and a crew member on the side of the dormitory building.
"Come, Duke, call!"
"Wang. โ
"Be ferocious, be ferocious, this bone is yours. Lai Ping took a bone-shaped dog snack and walked in front of the duke.
The duke didn't scream, but looked at the bone in Lai Ping's hand and drooled, and after the long tongue was born, he was about to get closer and eat the bone.
Lai Ping hurriedly put away his bones, turned around and said helplessly to a short-haired woman in her twenties and thirties, who was not low in appearance and had a bewitching figure, and said helplessly: "Sister Na, no, the duke looks big, but in fact, he is usually very docile, and he will not show a fierce appearance at all." โ
This Sister Na is the staff filmed by the crew to guide Lai Ping to train the Duke, in fact, she is a third-rate actress, who came out in her teens to play tricks, and then gradually took on some small roles, and now she is 30 years old, and she is still barely in the third rate. Because the popularity of ordinary actresses depends on those years, she has long given up her dream of becoming famous when she first became an actress, and only came out to play some small supporting roles honestly after getting married and having children.
This time, the crew recruited a lot of young actors like Sister Na in advance, in order to train pet dogs one-on-one until Ni Xi and others.
The one who helped Ni Xi was a middle-aged actor, but it was this eye-catching Sister Na who was assigned to Lai Ping, which made Ni Xi have to sigh that Lai Ping was lucky.
Sister Na also frowned when she saw the training situation of the duke in front of her, thought about it, and said: "Although this paragraph in the script is written to make the duke bark fiercely, but no one has such a detailed expression in the dog, in fact, you can find a way to make it bark louder, after all, it is really not fierce at all to bark like that just now." โ
"But since I raised the Duke, I haven't seen it yelling at people a few times. When you first came into contact with it, Sister Na, it was so friendly to you, you should feel it. And the barking of dogs is usually only done at the enemy, so this is really difficult. "Obviously, even just having the Duke shout at Lai Ping feels very difficult.
Hearing this, Sister Na frowned even deeper, and said: "This role is already the most suitable duke in the script, if this training is not good, then it is not easy for us to explain to Director Wang." โ
Seeing this, Ni Xi approached with the second dog and said with a smile: "Isn't it just to let the duke scream fiercely, I'll help you." โ
