Rebirth: I Want to Surf

"are you done?"

"OK OK!"

"Fuck, it's so hard to take a set makeup photo!"

Zhao Baogang is usually okay, but he likes to swear when he is working, he is a tyrant on the set.

Any director who has a little bit of pursuit hates the placement of advertisements, but in reality, most people can't get along with money.

99 Company clearly stated that a large number of clothing products should appear in the drama. Thanks to the costumes, it's not too dramatic, otherwise Zhao Baogang couldn't agree.

He waited patiently for the actors to finish their modeling, then looked up, yo!

The fashion in the mainland has just emerged these days, and the celebrities are also very local and don't know how to dress up. The styling design of "Struggle" was entrusted to 99, and he hasn't seen it yet.

Looking at them now, they are all youthful and eye-catching, with a sense of fashion beyond today's.

What did Tong Dawei wear in the original "Struggle"?

It's a Polo shirt!

This thing is worn by middle-aged people, and the little boss loves to wear it the most. As a result, Tong Dawei wore it for a whole TV series, and even raised his collar in an unconventional way to show his personality.

When the TV series airs, hey, this way of dressing is actually popular!

Yao Yuan couldn't bear to look directly at it, of course he had to switch to Maike Eslite.

Regardless of Tong Dawei, Ma Yili, Wen Wen, and Li Xiaolu, a batch of costumes were specially made according to the character and appearance characteristics of the characters.

Wang Luodan wears the most costumes. She plays a rich girl with a very individual personality. Right now she is wearing an "ankle-baring outfit" with dark red canvas shoes and socks hidden inside.

"What kind of shoes are these?"

"canvas shoes!"

"canvas shoes……"

Zhao Baogang was quite interested. He picked up a pair of samples and looked at them. He said happily, "Aren't these just Jiefang shoes? If they look good, they will become fashionable? I don't understand, I don't understand."

"Damn it, get ready!"

"I wasted a lot of work, and I finished shooting it today!"

Solo photos first, then group photos. The appearance of these young actors is good, people rely on clothes and saddles, and their dressing is more vivid.

Click!

Looking at the last group photo, Zhao Baogang couldn't help nodding secretly, his confidence in the success index of "Struggle" greatly increased.

…………

99 Company, the planning team of the game department.

As "Audition" became more and more popular, the game department expanded rapidly, with strong troops. Gu Jiaming is now the head of the plan, and there are a group of people under him who can use computers to connect to the big screen and are watching dramas.

That's right, chasing drama.

"Oh god!"

"Sunflower Acupuncture Hand!"

"Could it be that you are the legendary Broken Finger Xuanyuan?"

"You always say that small bets make you happy, but big ones hurt your health. I think that betting is just gambling, regardless of size. Those who win still want to win, and those who lose want to make a comeback. Once gambling takes off, I can't care about anything..."

What they were watching was "Wulin Biography".

It was started last year, and after a long period of shooting, post-production was done while shooting, and it was completed not long ago. When another episode ended, the audience was still unsatisfied, and they all said: "One more episode! Another episode!"

"It's been 4 episodes, you guys are going to work or watch the show, turn it off!"

Gu Jiaming maintains order, and actually thinks this show is good. At the beginning of the first episode, he was a bit confused. What kind of style is this? It's not a martial arts movie, is it?

Why is it so nonsensical?

But when I looked at it, I realized that it was so fucking interesting!

"What do you guys think?"

"Second only to "I Love My Family"!"

"It will definitely catch fire!"

"Fun and educational, it's really entertaining and educational."

"Hey, hey, we are the game department, not the film and television department. Let me ask you what you think about adapting it into an online game?" Gu Jiaming patted the table and said.

"..."

After a moment of silence, they said in unison: "It's authentic!"

"It must be restored to the original flavor, otherwise I'm sorry for this drama, and the audience will definitely not be satisfied!"

"Dig, dig to death, dig out every detail in the play, and then show it in the game!"

"It's better to do geography and NPC first. It's relatively clear. Qixia Town, Shibalibao, Xiliang River, Cuiwei Mountain, Zuojiazhuang, Feilong Valley, and the shopkeeper in Balizhuang, Orion in Heifengling, Baishiqiao The locksmith in the village, the woodcutter in Weigong Village..."

"Wait a minute!"

Gu Jiaming wondered, "Where did you get so many things?"

"Read the script!"

The employee who spoke shook the thick script, and said: "You all didn't pay attention to the drama, I have been reading the script. For example, in the sixth episode, a gang of bandits came to Cuiwei Mountain, and the head of the mighty security guard Zhao was chopped off twice. arm, Cuiwei Mountain is located west of Qixia Town...

In such a short period, we can design a large task. "

This person became more and more enthusiastic, and said: "We can also design some Easter eggs, such as a dish mentioned in it, Xiliang River Vinegar Fish. When we are engaged in life occupations, we can assign unique tasks to unlock Xiliang River Vinegar Fish. "

wipe!

Hearing what he said, Gu Jiaming felt that he was coming, a map of Pinggu County-Qixia Town faintly appeared in his mind, clapped his hands and said: "That's it, we have to make this game with the mentality of researching "Dream of Red Mansions".

In view of wasting a lot of time watching dramas, everyone will work overtime tonight! "

Just add it, just give the money.

Everyone had no objections, but Gu Jiaming paused, then remembered something, rummaged on his desk for a while, and pulled out a thick book with two large characters written on the cover: "Zhu Xian"!

"This is a very popular online novel this year. It hasn't been finished yet, but the company has already taken down the copyright, and it will also be made into an online game."

"Why did this route go to the entertainment industry? It's not an adaptation of a TV series, or an adaptation of a novel?"

"Then who knows, the boss has his own consideration."

Gu Jiaming flipped through the book and said: "I haven't read it yet, "Zhu Xian" is ranked after "Wulin Biography", so there is no rush for now, but everyone should take the time to read the original book and get to know it first.

Oh, by the way, Mr. Yao said that "Zhu Xian" will be made into 3D. "

Buzz buzz!

The employees were excited and chattered: "The 3D one, the one in "Perfect World"?"

"Wow, I saw the promotional video of "Perfect World" is super beautiful, and the art design is super good."

"I heard about the 3D engine developed by others?"

"Yeah, awesome!"

At present, the first domestic game manufacturers are Netease, which owns "Western Journey 2" and "Fantasy Westward Journey", and Shanda, which owns "Legend", "Bubble Hall" and "Adventure Island".

There are also Ninetowns, which successfully represented "World of Warcraft", and Mai Wo, which represented "Audition", and they are catching up quickly.

Perfect World is still a small company, but it has developed its own 3D engine, and its first masterpiece "Perfect World" is in internal testing, causing a sensation.

In this year, the 3D graphics of "Perfect World" represent the highest level of domestic games. It really carries the hope of game fans, but it is a pity that it will not seek to make progress soon, and the games that I made later are all a routine, and I can make money lying flat.

So when it comes to 3D, everyone is very excited.

"Are we going to develop our own engine too?"

"How much did you invest?"

"Is "Wulin Biography" also 3D?"

"Stop, stop!"

Gu Jiaming pressed his hand and said: "I don't know the specific situation. The higher-ups make their own decisions. I only know that "Wulin Biography" is 2D. Let's do this project well first, don't think too much."

Watching everyone working separately, he couldn't help but think of Mr. Yao's precepts and deeds to himself:

"The domestic market is so big that the game industry hardly needs to be aggressive. The past few years have been considered the time when everyone has worked hard to innovate, and in the future they will just lie on the coffin and eat and drink.

We don't have to feel that we have a heavy responsibility to lead domestic games to strive for excellence. We don't have the energy. It takes time and effort to develop a 3D engine, and it is better to introduce a foreign one.

When the capital is strong in the future, the direct acquisition will be completed in one step. "

To be honest, it kind of shattered Gu Jiaming's three views, but the boss had to obey when he spoke.

Just kidding, there are so many cases of bare fruit in later generations, why does Yao Yuan bother?

No matter what kind of game it is, the main thing is to make money. Anyway, no matter how bad it is, there are people who pay for it. A small game with broken pages has tens of millions of dollars. Where can I justify it?

Of course, some independent and innovative works can emerge from time to time in the game industry, which is much better than the closed-loop film and television industry.

(no more...)
