The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games Chapter 241

  Chapter 241 239. Is this something that people can take? !

   One sentence ruined the classics and made Cao Yang's desire to die.

   A good biography of the Sword and Fairy, without Liu Yifei, I feel that I can't stand it anymore.

  Now Cao Yang is more concerned about the situation on his own side.

  Even classic games like Xianjian have been photographed like this ghost.

  Our "The Night of Glory of the King" will not be worse, right?

Yes.

  In fact, this is the case.

   is even worse.

  The shooting time of Glory of Kings was a few months earlier than that of Fairy Sword. All the shooting tasks were completed as early as July last year.

  From July to now in February, Ai Xiaomi has been busy doing something very weird——

  In order to show the effects in the game, she asked Deng Peiqiang engine project team to draw several people, separated the original X2 engine, and made a special graphics engine for computer special effects and 3D rendering.

  This game engine strips away the parts needed by the game, and concentrates its power on special effects and screen rendering. It is specifically used for post-CG for film and television.

  CG is the abbreviation of English Computer Graphics, which refers to the use of computer technology for visual design and production. It includes both technology and art, covering almost all visual art creation activities carried out by computer technology, such as graphic design, web design, three-dimensional animation, film and television special effects, multimedia technology, and computer-aided design architectural design.

  The origin of this technology is very early, probably in the 1970s, Americans have already begun to use computers to do special effects.

  Very well-known CG companies include U.S. Industrial Light & Magic, and New Zealand's Tawei Digital...

  In 1982, Industrial Light and Magic made the first computer-synthesized film visual effects shot, in the scene of a planet explosion in "Star Trek: Khan's Wrath";

  In 1985, Industrial Light & Magic produced the first CG character-Stained Glass Man...

   has been developed to this day, Pixar uses computers to produce cartoons that do not require real actors or any real scenes and models: "Toy Story"

   Last year, Pixar produced "The Incredibles" and it was a big success at the box office.

  CG production is a time-consuming, laborious and costly task.

  Most of Ai Xiaomi's money is spent on post-production special effects.

  After all, the fighting scene depicted in the game breaks through the sky.

  Just the first emperor's [King's Treasure House] is enough for you to burn a lot of money.

  30 million is not enough at all, Ai Xiaomi can only do some simplification and spend the money on the blade.

  Fortunately, the cost of recruiting actors is not very large, and it can barely support it.

  Because the CG production is done by oneself, it can be said that it also saves costs to some extent.

If it is packaged out, first, apart from Bomi, who has conducted in-depth research on engines and computer graphics technology, there is no such capable team in China; if you want to invite foreign special effects manufacturers, such as Industrial Light and Magic, or It is Pixar who helps the production later, so it is estimated that it will cost at least ten times more money.

  CG technology is one aspect, this problem can now be solved by Bomi's program team.

  The main cost comes from the production process.

  A few frames of CG animation may take 2 to 3 days to render. The art team's computer has dozens of machines turned on for many years, and does not do anything except rendering every day.

  Moreover, if something goes wrong in the middle, then you have to re-render it.

  The time cost is high, and the electricity bill is also high.

   mainly these aspects.

  In addition, it is the design cost of the art team. To complete a shot, Ai Xiaomi has to completely split the shot, accurate to each frame, and then hand it over to different art for rendering and stitching...

  The whole process is very delicate and takes a lot of time.

  Final production is completed——

  A TV series, 12 episodes, each episode is one hour, adding up to a total of 12 hours.

  The special effects lens accounted for a very small proportion of it, and it is estimated that it will take less than half an hour, but it cost more than 20 million production costs.

  If it wasn't for running out of money, Ai Xiaomi would actually like to increase the proportion of CG to more than 40%.

I have to say that Ai Xiaomi is really a wonderful director. She doesn't need a famous actor to shoot TV series. If it weren't for the actor Chen Kun was appointed by Boss Cao, she might end up even Chen Kun not wanting the effect of the TV series. Please.

  Since the golden powder family passed, Chen Kun's pay has skyrocketed, and now it has risen to the level of 150,000 in one episode.

  In other words, in the shooting of 12 episodes, Chen Kun would take 1.8 million away by himself.

  There are two ways to calculate the pay of the online actors. One is to calculate the number of episodes. After negotiation between the two parties, according to the number of episodes the actors play in the play, each episode will be counted as one episode with at least five appearances.

  How much is each episode, and then pay the actors according to the number of episodes* each episode.

  Like Chen Kun, you have to pay 12*15=1.8 million.

  In 2004, this salary was already relatively high. If there is no gold powder family to bring the fire, Chen Kun's salary is even lower than this.

  Last year's first-line TV drama actors, the highest was about seven or eighty thousand episodes, Chen Kun is already considered to be a relatively high price tag.

  In the future, the pay of actors will rise to a terrible figure.

  In addition to charging according to the number of episodes, the other is to negotiate the remuneration in the form of packaging.

That is to say, the producer first asks the actors to read the script and informs the role played in the play, and then both parties will pay for this role and how long it will take to ensure that all the roles played by him will be filmed. All the participating activities will be paid in total. Just pay the actors as much as possible.

  Of course, there are many reasons why normal billing cannot be done, such as interpersonal relations, political relations and other factors.

After the filming is completed, it enters the editing stage. The editor performs technical editing according to the story sequence of the original script and the director's requirements. Every minute is a combination of several non-continuous shots, so each character appears in each episode The length of time does not represent the actual labor he has paid.

  It is possible that the protagonist came to shoot for two days, but the footage can be cut out to fill the entire plot, then it may take him two days to get the money for the entire TV series.

   So Ai Xiaomi is really a wonderful director, perhaps because there are too many games, and I always feel that the experience after more than 10 hours is relatively poor.

  The actors who have worked with her said that they don't want to film Ai Xiaomi's scene in the future.

Why?

  Because the fewer TV episodes you film at the end, the less the actors get paid.

  Even Chen Kun's agent said that like Ai Xiaomi's shooting method, no one would want to cooperate with her in the future. He had known that he had signed the buyout system at the beginning and could still get a lot of money.

  If it weren't for the higher pay for a single episode, people wouldn't be willing to accept this kind of drama directed by a newcomer at all.

  I regret to death now.

  Not only does the actors think Ai Xiaomi is a weird thing, the TV station also thinks her is a weird thing.

  Now all TV drama productions are being made longer, ranging from 3 to 40 episodes, as many as 50, 60 episodes, and even TV series like "Foreign Daughter-in-law and Local Lang" that have been filmed with more than 1,000 episodes.

  Ai Xiaomi shoots 12 episodes and plays 2 episodes a day. Even if the TV file expires, it will only take a week. Your exposure is not good at all.

  The exposure is not good, how can I insert ads in it?

  How does my TV station make money?

  So in the end, he was willing to buy the TV station of Bomi's "Night of Glory of the Kings", and only the Imperial Capital TV station is the only one.

  Who made Bomi a star enterprise in the imperial world?

   is used to test the water. In the future, there may be a lot of cooperation between the TV station and Bomi, which can be regarded as a favor from the boss Cao.

Imperial TV and CCTV are different. The influence of the two is completely different. If it is CCTV, Boss Cao can wake up with a smile in his dreams. Even if the film is not satisfactory, but it can be broadcast on CCTV, at least the exposure is Yeah, maybe it can bring a wave of games.

  Emperor TV Station has a much smaller scope of influence.

On February 18th, on the second day after the Legend of the Sword and the Fairy was broadcast, Ai Xiaomi called Cao Yang, "Boss, at 7:36 tonight, our TV series is going to be broadcast on the Imperial City TV. You must remember to watch it. ."

   "Okay~" Cao Yang hung up the phone with some worry.

  Actually, Ai Xiaomi had shown him some clips and some of the content before, and Cao Yang felt it was okay after reading it.

  At least the male and female protagonists' looks are very attractive, and the special effects are simply terrible.

  I just don't know the actual playback effect.

   At 7:35 in the evening, Cao Yang was transferred to the Imperial TV Station on time.

  After the news broadcast ends, it's time for the evening theater.

  As soon as the time is up, the TV will start to broadcast "The Night of Glory to the King"

  One hour later, the first episode ends.

   Cao Yang looked dazed, then covered his face with his hands.

  It's over, it's over, it's over...

  Too embarrassing.

  Sure enough, there is such a problem with the game changing to TV series.

  No matter how the lines of the second grade in the game, as long as you look at the characters in the game, they don't feel at all contradictory, on the contrary, they are still very interesting.

  But after making it into a TV series, the whole body got goose bumps.

  This is also thanks to Chen Kun's performance, but other people don't know what it will be like.

   is over, this is Cao Yang's first reaction.

  Sure enough, after the TV series was broadcast, many comments about this TV series began to appear on the Internet:

   "Have anyone watched the TV show on the Imperial Capital One—the night of the King's Glory, which was broadcasted last night?"

   "Yes, has anyone read it, give me a comment?"

   "Hey... it's really hard to explain in one word. I don't know if I want to recommend it to you. You should take a look at it yourself? It's really hard to explain in one word."

   "What's special about me... I watched the first two episodes yesterday and felt that the whole person was not very good. In fact, I have no objection to the casting of Bomi, and it can even be said that the casting is perfect.

Akko in the game is a cold and cute character who has a sense of justice and a bit of cold blood. This time I chose Liu Yifei. I don't know if it's her acting skills or what, anyway, although she didn't have much expression throughout the process, It fits the image of A Ke as a killer.

  Furthermore, the person is really beautiful, with a cool temperament, and it is perfect to match the character of A Ke.

Needless to say,   Chen Kun, the actor, is currently one of the best in the country, and his acting skills are also very good. You can't pick out what's wrong with the character.

The problem is……

  It may really be that the game is not suitable for adaptation into a TV series. The exciting scenes in the game that were originally seen in the game, when it comes to the TV series, it feels awkward.

  I didn't think there was anything when I was playing games, but when I watched TV shows, my whole person got goose bumps.

  Fortunately, Chen Kun is here, and he can still be pressed a little bit. Otherwise, I don't know what the ratings of this TV series are going to be bad. "

   "Yes, I felt the same with upstairs after watching it. I thought the screenplay of Xianjian was already rubbish. Now, after watching Bomi's Glory of the King, I think it's acceptable.

  Both are similar. "

  "Hahahaha...I think so now. The sense of substitution and immersion given by the game of Honor of Kings is not suitable for adaptation into a game. If it is made into anime, it should be much better than this.

  Then the TV series of Fairy Sword, in fact, is okay from the production point of view, but the casting is a bit worse.

  If you can give the starring role of the King of Glory to the fairy sword, it will be perfect. "

   "Fuck, the thoughts upstairs have shocked me. To be honest, if Liu Yifei is given to the Fairy Sword to play Zhao Linger, the Legend of the Fairy Sword and Chivalry is not something to be seen."

   "Hahahaha, agree."

"In fact, the glory of the king is not as bad as what you said. I think that apart from a little embarrassment, the actors are selected very well. At least I like this version of Akko. The feeling of Liu Yifei performing is really great. This Akko Beautiful and temperamental, first-class skill.

  And don't you think? In fact, the special effects in the TV series of Glory of the Kings are great, super cool. "

"Yes, yes, I just wanted to say this too. The King of Glory can be criticized by others, but only unique effects can't be criticized. I feel that this level of special effects is definitely the best in China, better than Xiaoyuer and Huahua. The special effects do not know how many times stronger.

  It was the first emperor who soared into the air, and when the treasure house of the king appeared, I was going to be beaten stupid. "

   "Yes, aside from the acting, if you just look at the special effects, this movie shouldn't be too emotional."

   "Anyway, my six-year-old cousin looks very enthusiastic, and he is still performing the tricks for me every day."

  Yes, there are nothing more than two things to say about the glory of the king in the TV drama version:

The first is casting. The male and female protagonists have high enough looks and they also meet the role requirements of the game fans. Therefore, after the TV series is released, the game fans can still watch them. They have contributed a lot of ratings, otherwise it will be even more. Pull the hips.

  The second is special effects. Ai Xiaomi's pursuit of lens and special effects has reached a heinous level. Sometimes you feel that she is not making a TV series, but shooting according to the requirements of the movie.

  Post-production costs a lot of money, and the results are of course good.

  In 2004, the production of 30 million was considered a big production cost. This person can actually spend it completely, and all of it is spent on the blade, the result of the work is naturally good.

  The current 30 million in 2004 is almost equivalent to 300 million in 21 years.

  Unfortunately, it is very difficult to change games to TV series.

  There is a big difference between real people and game images. The game image is originally made up by the artists, and it is a wonderful virtual image that is more in line with human imagination and aesthetics.

  The facial expressions of real people are obviously much richer than games, and they are also more difficult to manage.

  It is very difficult for you to get a game-like experience when performing live action.

  If it is not really good and can make a very high-quality reduction product, then it will definitely fail.

  The live-action version that can be done well in previous lives, many of which are from 3D games.

  For example, Transformers, Resident Evil...

The live-action version of   2D game adaptation is really rarely successful.

  After the TV series was broadcast, it received a rating of 5.513%.

   is behind the Legend of Sword and Fairy.

  This is also what Cao Yang expected. After all, the current film and television drama market is not mature enough, and many domestic audiences cannot accept such an advanced and secondary setting as the glory of the king.

  Of course, making the live-action version itself is a false proposition, and this is Cao Yang's mistake.

  He will have to reflect deeply in the future.

  Now Bomi can't even make money back.

  However, the source of revenue for TV dramas is not the ratings. Our country is a model of filming first and then broadcasting. The drama party and the TV station negotiate the price to sell, and the ratings are basically fine.

  So this time, the King of Glory was sold to the Imperial TV Station before it was broadcast. At the price of 1 million in one episode, it sold a total of 12 million, although not much, at least a little blood can be recovered.

  TV stations make money and ratings are related, indicating that the white point is the advertisements inserted in it. The better the ratings, the more advertising costs, and the better the effect. Other TV stations will also buy the copyright of the TV series, so that the TV series can make money.

  Like "Wulin Gaiden" is the most profitable TV series in many years. The number of TV episodes is long, suitable for all ages, and there are frequent laughs, so it is very popular with the audience.

   "Forget it, Immortal Sword is no better than us anyway." Cao Yang said uncomfortably.

  The money is a lesson.

  I'll be a fool if I change my TV show in the future!

  "Boss, did you think that you would miss your eyes?" Cao Yang was mercilessly mocked by the little secretary on the first day of work after the new year.

   "Hey, no one is perfect, I am not a god." Cao Yang sighed.

His original idea was quite simple. The game had so many audiences to base, and then the double explosion of TV series was added. After the linkage, the game and the film and television flew together, just like the linkage between the ghost of a Chinese girl and the TV series with a smile. .

  I didn't expect to be slapped in the face by the market.

  However, this time is not a complete failure.

  Cao Yang saw a glimmer of hope in this TV series——

  Our company is fully capable of making a large-scale 3D movie.

  Whether it is the technology or the director's ability to grasp the lens, they have reached the standard for making large-scale 3D movies.

  Why do you want to make a TV show?

   Isn't it good to make special effects movies?

   Seeing the weird smile on the boss's face, the little secretary felt cold for no reason.

   "Boss, you can laugh all this way, I'm also convinced."
