A fantasy set is basically equivalent to Newton's three laws of physics.

Only a rigorous "setting set" has laid the foundation for a course, movies, and games can be turned into "academics" that are studied by countless people!

In the United States, in the 70s, DND (Dungeons & Dragons) appeared, which was originally just a rulebook for a tabletop card game. However, with the participation of countless people, the DND has gradually expanded into a magnificent multi-dimensional world.

And from board games, it has spread to PC games, console games, online games, and film and television. Later, the brand effect brought by DND has created many classics, games, film and television works, and it is almost impossible to count.

In China, writing is a private affair, not an engineering project.

Therefore, the fantasy world setting that needs to be built by countless enthusiasts is still blank in the Chinese market. No one realizes how fascinating it is to plot a fantasy world out of thin air—fictional maps, history, humanities, races, occupations, economies, civilizations, world rules, and so on.

In fact, this kind of setting up a fantasy world out of thin air also has huge economic benefits, as well as the effect of touching and stimulating human imagination. If nothing else, a single set of DND canons can produce millions of board games, as well as publish tens of thousands of related books, dozens of related movies and TV series, and hundreds of video games. You know, a set of settings with huge influence, and the economic effect is also amazing.

It wasn't until the 21st century that some Chinese countries were inspired by the DND and came up with a Kyushu setting set, hoping to make a world that thousands of people could participate in.

However, the Kyushu setting set, launched too late, the influence is not very extensive, plus the founder of Kyushu, Jiangnan, Jin He Zai and others do not agree with the concept, the Kyushu settings written by the two are fundamentally contradictory and incompatible with each other, which makes Kyushu rapidly decay and split, and in the end, no one cares about the fate of Kyushu's fantasy setting anymore.

Zhang Shaojie began to rely on the popularity of "Datang", film and television, animation and other fields in the 80s to create a set of settings.

In the future, Jia can make fantasy martial arts similar to "Tang Dynasty", "Legend of the Border Wilderness", and "Rain and Clouds" according to the setting set.

At that time, China will also have a far-reaching set of settings like DND.

Many setting researchers don't talk about DND all day long, as if the setting of DND is an unquestionable truth.

After talking to Lin Qingxia about the setting of "The Tang Dynasty", Zhang Shaojie was not joking. In fact, Zhang Shaojie has already begun to contact the official authorized organization of "Datang" active in Taiwan to discuss the "Datang" setting set.

"Datang" is officially authorized by the same people, and at present, it is mainly from the hands of the publishing house, and it is divided into the remuneration of the "Datang" fan.

After a certain period of operation, the official authorized organization of "Datang" has authorized the publication of more than 70 doujin, and has obtained more than NT$6 million in licensing fees.

With these licensing fees, the official organization of "Datang" is gradually able to hold more activities to promote products such as "Datang", movies, and comics.

At the same time, the officially authorized organization of "Datang" also began to have 5 regular employees who received salaries.

"Idol, do you want to formulate the "Datang Core Rules", similar to the American DND?" Jiang Shanxue, executive vice president of the officially authorized organization of "Datang", said very excitedly.

Zhang Shaojie explained: "Yes, this project, in my opinion, is very important and imperative! ”

Modern Chinese martial arts, from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, after the birth of newspapers, gradually flourished.

After the war, new martial arts closer to the people emerged in Hong Kong and Taiwan, integrating the meridians, acupoints and many mysterious traditional cultures in traditional Chinese medicine.

However, the martial arts of each family are chaotic, even if they are Jin Yong and Gu Long, there is no perfect martial arts setting system.

Therefore, in the eyes of many foreign martial arts lovers, the settings such as internal force, meridians, and acupoints in martial arts are so complex and incomprehensible.

And if, there is a set of core settings that systematically organizes martial arts settings and releases them to the world. Then, overseas readers who do not have enough understanding of Chinese chivalry culture can also understand the spirit of martial arts through this setting set!

Martial arts can only become a mainstream culture if it is easily understood.

Jiang Shanxue said excitedly: "Idol, martial arts can become the world's mainstream culture sooner or later!" ”

Zhang Shaojie smiled and said: "Chinese culture is always subtle, in martial arts, Xianxia, the setting is also more freehand, not rigorous and scientific." Westerners, on the other hand, like to set a set of rules, and the strength, skills, and upgrade rules of the characters are clear. I hope that in the future, through the formulation of the "Datang Core Rules", the core setting principle of the entire martial arts culture will be improved and explained. Such a rigorous project cannot be completed by one person! Therefore, I hope to gather more people to jointly complete the specific planning of this project, I have written a plan, mailed it, and it will be received in a few days! ”

—————————— May 25, 1982, Zhang Shaojie began to let the official organization of "Datang" take the lead and organize some "Datang hardcores" to summarize the core rules of the "Datang" fantasy martial arts system.

The core rules are divided into a series of rules such as martial arts settings, geographical settings, historical settings, character settings, and so on.

In the martial arts setting, the nouns of various key surnames such as meridians, dantian, true qi, and acupoints are summarized in detail, as well as the realms of acquired and congenital.

And it is divided into different character camps such as Gate Valve, Buddhism, Taoism, Demon Gate, and Hanmen.

Most of the geographical settings refer to the geography of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the outline of mountains and rivers.

However, there are more geographical locations in "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty".

The character setting, the characters in it, all have a specific surname.

And veteran enthusiasts can also set their own characters outside the official according to the core rules.

With the "'Legend of the Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty' core rule book", it has been promoted in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Yueben, Singapore and other places. It quickly aroused the enthusiasm of the crowd and continued to participate.

Because of the large number of participants, Zhang Shaojie had to create a magazine called "Datang Rule Book". This magazine is divided into two different editions: the Chinese version and the Chinese version.

The Chinese version of "Datang Rule Book" was prepared by Hong Kong Commonwealth Publishing House, distributed in Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan, and accepted various related contributions to "Datang".

The Chinese edition of the "Datang Rule Book" magazine authorized Tokuma Bookstore to prepare for the construction and accepted contributions from "Datang" lovers of the book.

At the same time, the Chinese version and the Chinese version of the "Tang Rule Book" magazine are also interconnected, translating their own wonderful parts.

In the end, the materials of the Chinese version and the Chinese version will be compiled and sorted out by the officially authorized organization of "The Tang Dynasty", and become part of the "Core Rule Book of the 'Legend of the Double Dragons of the Great Tang'".

With that, the official authorized organization of "Datang", Tianxia Publishing House, and Tokuma Bookstore jointly announced the compilation plan of "The Legend of Datang Shuanglong" Core Rulebook, as well as the news of the manuscript of "Datang Rulebook" magazine.

For a time, the lovers of "Datang" were very excited, and excellent manuscripts sprung up to the editorial department of "Datang Rule Book".

———————————— Zhang Shaojie became a billionaire by making a name for himself.

Many people sighed: "Times have changed, even poor literati can be said to be making money!" ”

There are even some contract editors of publishing houses, who must say that Zhang Shaojie is proud, movies, music, and games, and the money earned is enough to buy Asia Television!" Boy, work hard, hard work and luck, maybe you will be the second Zhang Shaojie! ”

Naturally, the Ming Pao Group has also benefited from the sweetness of the creative frenzy that has once again set off in Hong Kong.

Flagship newspapers such as "Martial Arts and History" and "Ming Pao" have received countless long-form submissions, and the quality has obviously begun to be much better than in the past few years.

And with the authorization of the film version of "Six Fingers Qin Demon" to Baolong Film Company, it was a great success. As a result, the authorization of Ming Pao began to gradually enter the right track, and many film and television companies and comic companies began to discuss copyright cooperation issues such as film and television adaptations and comic adaptations with the "Ming Pao" Group.

In the first half of 1982 alone, the "Ming Pao Group" has sold the film and television adaptation rights of more than 20 works, and the animation adaptation rights of 5 works.

Ming Pao Group paid about 4 million yuan to the author for the film and television and animation adaptation rights, and Ming Pao Group itself also made a profit of 1.3 million Hong Kong dollars through copyright operation.

This fully shows that in terms of content copyright adaptation, it is indeed a new way out.

"Shaojie, now many customers are shouting for the adaptation copyright of your "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", "Resident Evil", "Breaking the Sky" and so on, but I said that these copyrights are all your personal and did not entrust the "Ming Pao" Group as an agent, which hurts many customers to complain!" Shen Baoxin looked sad.

Zhang Shaojie said with a smile: "Uncle Shen, you go tell those customers!" If "Resident Evil" invests more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, I can authorize him. "Breaking the Sky", if the film and television adaptation investment exceeds 300 million Hong Kong dollars, I will authorize it. When the time comes, I only need 10% of the box office of the movie, or the sales dividend of TV rights."

"Boy, you're a lion's mouth. If anyone has 300 million, the acquisition of "Ming Pao" is more than enough. Who would spend so much capital to make more film and television dramas," Shen Baoxin couldn't help but shake his head.
