Chapter 393 Domestic Light?(1/2)
Django has written the theme song for others once or twice, from the beginning "Sound and Sour" to the recent "Stupid Kid", but most of them are film and television dramas, variety shows, and games are the first time.
"League of Legends" is a popular game all over the world, and this World Championship is held in Hangzhou, so the attention is even higher. After all, there are many Chinese players.
The theme song created by Django and sung by Xu Chenyi has caused discussion in various circles.
Game Circle:
"The candidates are very good. Xu Chenyi is an old player in "League of Legends" and often shows off his achievements on Weibo."
"I'm not worried about him, mainly Django. If I don't understand this game at all, the songs I wrote will hardly resonate with."
"Yes, the English theme songs of the previous ten sessions are very exciting. If they are too ugly, it would be embarrassing."
...
Music Circle:
"Another breaking the circle and cooperating, but game songs are not that easy to write. They must have the rendering of the game atmosphere, the prominentness of the game story and the entertainment of the public."
"Indeed, the lyrics of an excellent game theme song should be smooth, easy to understand, and strongly highlight the core theme of the game, and have strong incitement."
"The aesthetics of melody are not absolute. They will change with the times. The composition of game songs should consider the aesthetic views of the current target players, so you must have a certain understanding of the game."
...
Media Circle:
"Django's songs, animation, movies, TV series, and variety shows are all '1 1>2', so can the game continue this myth?"
"In the first half of the year, six excellent songs such as "The Road Follows the Lost", "I Like You", "Song of the Sunset", "The Same as the Nine Provinces", "Blue and White Porcelain", and "Stupid Kids". Can Django still maintain such a good state?"
"It is rumored that the customization fee for this theme song is more than 20 million. Is it worth the money or is it worth the money?"
...
Fan circle:
"When I use my feet to know that this theme song cannot be bad."
"Everyone is talking about whether you understand the game or not. How did you know that Mr. Jiang doesn't know that "League of Legends"?"
"Even if you haven't played it before, you can still learn about a game quickly, including background stories and biography."
...
There are two different voices on the Internet, one is questioned by the outside world and the other is the support of fans.
The "League of Legends" event was not panicked at all, and even looked forward to the expressions on everyone's faces when this song sounded on the stadium.
Django was even less panicked. This song "The Lonely Brave" could never be scolded, and he had such confidence.
Under this high popularity, the second video of the stand-alone game "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been released, this time it is a 25-minute UE5 real-time test highlight.
Compared with the landscape and character model displays a year ago, this real-time test is more like a video of action and technology display.
In just a few hours, the video exceeded tens of millions of views and directly won the first place in all categories of Bilibili, Douyin and Weibo.
"A game video is like watching a movie."
"I want to advise the production team to be honest, if you want to put it, you can put it in real real-life demonstrations, and what does it mean to hire someone to go to the scenic spot to shoot videos in person!"
"We have 9.6 million square kilometers, countless scenic spots, and cannot explore them all, 0:25 seconds, Fangyan Scenic Area in Yongkang City; 0:33 seconds, Xiandu Scenic Area in LS City; 0:41 seconds, 0:50 JH City Shouxiangu Scenic Area; 0:59 seconds, Fenghuang Ancient City in western Hunan."
"How outrageous is this video? When I went to the school public toilet, I heard someone watching it when I went in. Half of the squatted, the man left, and then someone came in and said this again, and the speaker was turned on even louder."
"No one refuted the 'Light of Domestic Games', right? High-quality cultural output!"
"I'm really willing to invest money. I use Unreal 5 engine. It's so powerful!"
"I will report to you the current situation of an employee of a certain game studio. I am not interested in working, and all the employees are watching "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
"Actually, we have many excellent teams, and we have not adhered to our original dreams for various reasons. Here I would like to give Futian Games a big thumbs up!"
"I am a martial arts practitioner and fell in love with this game at a glance. No, there is only one detail. The way Li Xiaoyao holds the sword, the sword body is attached to the outside of the forearm, the thumb of the right hand is bent to form the palm, the root of the palm is attached to the inside of the left wrist, the palm is pointed upward, the arms are supported round, and the body is bent flat, and the wrist is flat to the shoulders."
"Copy the official blog of Futian Game [Q: What is the payment model of "Legend of Sword and Fairy"? Answer: The classic stand-alone payment model with one-time buyout system is not ruled out in the future.]. Just based on this sentence, you must buy it!"
...
Overnight, the live demonstration video of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" became popular all over the Internet.
Just a game, why is it so popular?
In fact, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" currently has a simple promotional video and a live demonstration video. The reason why it became popular is of course because of the explosion of suppressed emotions in the hearts of domestic players.
Speaking of the theme of Xianxia, it has been used by domestic game manufacturers to the point of being bad. Xianxia-themed games are basically everywhere in China. Many friends have even suffered from Ptsd and they want to vomit when they see this type of game. Moreover, the domestic krypton gold games are really like crucian carp, and they almost write "recharge money quickly" on their faces. However, it is difficult for teams that really polish the game quality to make it difficult to make a comeback.
However, after the release of the promotional video of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and the live demonstration video, everything is different. Whether from the perspective of environmental rendering or feedback on the action, it is undoubtedly close to the quality of overseas 3A masterpieces.
Domestic gamers really need a truly excellent domestic game, and the domestic deformed game market that has been dry for too long is really needing such a rain of nourishment.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, on the other hand, the TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has laid a solid popularity foundation. It not only shouldered the banner of domestic fairy dramas and created a rating miracle, but also became the number one fairy drama in the minds of many people.
"You are just right in the right time to cooperate with League of Legends S game, setting off a wave of game discussions." Chen Gan looked at the high heat and smiled on his face.
"These are all secondary, mainly because the game is done well. After so many years of hard work, domestic gamers are no longer so easy to deceive." It is true that Django likes to take advantage of the popularity, but he still needs to be strong himself, otherwise it will only backfire and eventually become a laughing stock.
"It's not about promotional, soundtrack, dubbing, etc. The cost of making this part alone is 350 million. How can it be good?" Chen Gan shook his head and sighed, "A 3A masterpiece is really expensive, and the money is out like water. If it is priced at 199 yuan, it will have to sell 2 million copies to make a return."
Django said confidently: "Don't worry, adding zero sales is not a problem. If you set a price, you can divide the plot unlocking progress and character unlocking progress into several levels, such as ordinary version, luxury version, and complete version, so as to accurately cover users of all consumption levels."
Chen Gan nodded and said, "That's what it is."
Django said again: "Have you started doing "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer"?"
Chen Gan replied: "The project has been established. Wait until "Legend of Sword and Fairy" will be launched, and internal testing will be launched to earn a wave of popularity and then attract investment."
It requires quality and efficiency. There is no other way except to burn money. It is necessary to attract external investment. First, it can share risks, and second, it can alleviate the problem of tight capital chain.
Django thinks that this is right. After all, the game is different from movies and TV series. It doesn’t mean that the pictures, human model, action design, etc. are fun.
Chen Gan suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "You have written songs for "League of Legends". It's unreasonable to write a few songs of your own game?"
Django smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "A song is 25 million."
Chen Gan raised his eyebrows and said, "Others are a word of money, but you are a word of money and tens of thousands of dollars."
Django smiled and said, "I just happened to have a song and two music in my hand, so I'll invest in the stock at the commercial price."
Chen Gan's eyes lit up and he said, "Is there really?"
Django nodded.
[Superstar Value] enough, you can use it at will, and you can exchange it for the pure music "Butterfly Love" of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 1", the song "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 Questions about Love", and the pure music "Back to the Immortal" of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 4".
Chen Gan said happily: "With your music blessing, it will be like a tiger with wings."
The game was basically decided, and I waited for the time to be released, and then said, "By the way, is it on National Day holiday?"
Django shook his head and said, "I won't let it go this time. There are too many crew members. It will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a day when it is released."
Chen Gan said helplessly: "Okay, I originally wanted to ask you to go to the game exhibition with Ling Wei."
Django shrugged and said, "There's no way."
Chen Gan said again: "Then will the premiere of "A Chinese Ghost Story"?"
Django explained: "It's just in the Magic City. It's too troublesome to run back and forth, so I won't attend."
"Okay." Chen Gan wanted to go because he could watch it in advance. If he didn't attend, there was no need to go. He would wait until the official release in the evening, so he said, "I happened to be with the project here. Then I called Pianpian, you call Ling Wei, and go to the cinema to watch "A Chinese Ghost Story" together?"
Django nodded and said, "Yes, I arranged to shoot the daytime scene that day."
He promised to watch with Zhou Lingwei, and Chen Gan and Chu Pianpian were OK.
—————
Hengdian Film and Television City, as the largest film and television shooting base in China and even the world, is the most likely scenic spot to encounter "stars". There are many star-chasing people, and filming and entertainment reporters are squatting here.
According to statistics, 57 crews filmed here at the same time this year, 66 crews were preparing here intensively, and more than 10,000 "Hengdian" performed continuously. It was really full of hotels, hot scenic spots, and studio shots.
Among them, the crew of "Langya Bang" attracted the most attention, but Django recruited many security guards to guard the entrances and exits of Jingyuan to prevent spoilers from being photographed.
There are many actors this time, including top stars and veteran actors with high status in the circle. It is not easy to use these people.
"This guide is crooked, a few people will move it..."
...
"The venue has been cleared, and the prop group can come in and arrange it..."
...
"The sound engineer comes here to test the audio effect..."
...
Various orders sounded from time to time on the set. Django used to personally issue them, but now they are handed over to the assistant director. On the one hand, they can increase practical experience, and on the other hand, they don’t have to be so tired.
"I can finally see the directorial level of Mr. Jiang with my own eyes." In a corner of the set, several actors were gathering together to chat, talking to Zhang Tiegang, the actor who played [King Liang], who just joined the group today.
"Teacher Tiegang, have you worked with Mr. Jiang?" Yu Qingqing, who plays Concubine Jing, also joined the group today.
"That's different. Last time it was a song, this time it was a film and television." Zhang Tiegang's previous collaboration with Django in the fourth season of "National Treasure", so this time Django gave an invitation to the TV series, which happened to play the role of the emperor who he was best at, and agreed without thinking.
