When the filming officially started, Sun Quan consciously handed over all the director's authority to assistant director Wang Zheng, and did not point fingers in order to prove his directorial ability.

He is self-aware in this regard. As the chief director, he just sits behind the director's monitor and watches the scenes shot on the scene.

Most of the time, he didn't express an opinion.

But he was not just a decoration. By watching the pictures on the monitor and combining his own feelings when writing "The Last Wish of the Dead", he communicated with Wang Zheng in a low voice from time to time and put forward his own opinions.

For example, for a certain plot, if Wang Zheng produced the effect he wanted when he wrote it, he would nod his approval. If Wang Zheng produced an effect that did not meet his expectations, he would raise it with Wang Zheng.

Then he asked Wang Zheng if there was any way to achieve the effect he wanted.

Not to mention, with his working style, he works quite well with Wang Zheng.

The two of them had a discussion and it was quite similar.

Not far away, Tao Yujuan looked at this scene in surprise, and whispered to Xue Zihan beside her: "I originally thought that Ah Quan was just in the name of chief director, but I didn't expect that he could really put forward a lot of opinions!"

Xue Zihan nodded slightly and spoke in a low voice, "I'm a little surprised, but this mode of operation is not without precedent. I heard that when TV series are filmed in Bangzi Country, sometimes the screenwriters seem to have quite a lot of rights.

I can often veto what the director shoots."

Tao Yujuan nodded, "Yes, I've heard of it too, but in our country, directors are generally the biggest. There should be no one like our crew, right?"

Xue Zihan smiled lightly, "Ah Quan is the chief director now! It is in line with our domestic practice!"

Tao Yujuan was stunned for a moment, then she realized what she was doing, and said with a smile: "That's right! So, it's good to let him have the title of chief director, right?"

Xue Zihan hummed.

…

Today was the first day of filming, so work ended very early. The crew finished work before it got dark.

Sun Quan said goodbye to Wang Zheng and others and took the car back.

In the car, Sun Quan recalled today's shooting process, feeling quite satisfied.

Although the specific picture taken was slightly different from the effect he wanted when writing, he knew that this difference was normal.

No director can 100% restore the effect of the original work.

Just like no matter how good a painter is, he cannot 100% paint the scenery in front of him on his drawing paper. Even the photos taken by the camera still have a certain degree of distortion.

What's more, in the process of filming a TV series, there are so many people and types of work involved, and every link is slightly flawed, so the final effect cannot be 100% faithful to the original work.

For example, the actor's appearance, the actor's performance, the make-up of the actor by the makeup team, the props prepared by the prop team, the director's personal style, etc., will all tilt the filmed effect in certain directions.

He also didn't want to achieve 100% the effect of the original work.

As a writer, he is very aware of the difficulty involved.

Just like he has been coding for more than ten years, he has never written 100% of the effect he wanted.

Sometimes, he wants to write touching plots, but the words he actually writes may only be averagely touching.

Sometimes he wants to write about the feeling of excitement, but the actual words may be far different.

Once, because of this current situation, he had doubts about his writing skills and whether he was a person with high ambitions and low abilities.

It wasn't until much later that he was sure that he really had too much ambition and too little talent.

At the same time, it is also confirmed that it is a common phenomenon to have high expectations but low hands. He is not alone. Every creator has high goals but low hands.

Are there really people in this world who have no regard for superiors and low abilities for others?

He didn't think so.

Because talking and thinking is always much easier than doing it, that’s for sure.

…

At night.

Tonight, Sun Quan did not go to the bedroom early to accompany his wife and children. He sat alone in the study room on the second floor in front of the computer.

In the past, he occasionally came to Magic City to visit Yuan Shuiqing and his daughter. He would accompany them every night instead of going to the study to code.

Because at that time he would only stay in the city for a few days, and after a few days, he would leave the city again and be separated from his wife and children.

But starting from today, his situation is different.

For a long time to come, he would stay in the Magic City, leaving early and coming back late. He would work on the crew during the day. If he didn't go into the study to type at night, the manuscripts he had on hand would soon be exhausted.

After that, the update of his book will inevitably be slow.

Therefore, when he came to Shanghai this time, he had already agreed with Yuan Shuiqing that he might not be able to accompany the mother and daughter at night. Yuan Shuiqing expressed his understanding and support for this.

Just like tonight, after dinner, when Sun Quan went upstairs to go to the study, his daughter was chasing after him, asking him to play with her. When Sun Quan was feeling helpless, Yuan Shuiqing called his daughter back, and then quietly told him

He waved his hand, indicating that he would go upstairs quietly, and no one wanted to shoot.

Only then did he successfully escape and go to the study.

In front of the computer.

Sun Quan looked at the photos he had just imported into his computer one by one.

Here are some photos of the crew starting up today.

The opening ceremony, which is not grand at all, looks really shabby when it comes to these photos.

There is no aura of superiority at all.

Sun Quan looked at it and smiled slightly.

He didn't regret that the opening ceremony was so simple. He was even thinking about whether to continue to compress the number of episodes in the first season.

The original plan of about 20 episodes was compressed to about 15 episodes.

The reason why he had this idea was because he believed that the price for selling the first season to the video website would not be much higher.

After all, as the chief director, he has never proven his ability in the film and television industry, and neither has the assistant director Wang Zheng. They are also new to the film and television industry in Xianyu Film and Television.

The actors starring in this drama are either newcomers or, although they are old people, they are not well-known.

With all the configurations, there seems to be no reason to sell at a high price.

The only valuable one seems to be the IP "Dead Man's Last Wish".

In the online literary circle, his book "The Last Wish of the Dead" currently has a great reputation and reputation.

However, in the current film and television market, the price of Internet IP has not yet increased.

So...what reason does this drama have to sell for a high price?

With this judgment in mind, Sun Quan thought of compressing the number of episodes in the first season as much as possible, reducing costs, and improving the quality of each episode. The content of the dozen or so episodes of the first season was just a super long promotional video.

Use this super long promotional video to hype up the web drama "Dead Man's Last Wish".

Then put more plot in the second season or even the third season.

According to his plan a few days ago, the show will have two seasons, but now he wants to make it three seasons.

As long as the quality of this show can be guaranteed, the price will definitely rise every season thereafter.

In the end, the average price of a three-season series should only be much higher than the price of filming one season.

In his memory before his rebirth, among all the works adapted into online dramas by online male channels, the one with the highest quality and best reputation should belong to "Remaining Sin".

At least he thinks so.

As for the first season of "Remaining Crime", he remembered that there were very few episodes.

But this did not affect the show's success as soon as it was aired and its reputation exploded.

He wanted to make his "Dead Man's Last Wish" have that effect.

In front of the computer, Sun Quan looked at the photos that had just been imported into the computer. Various thoughts and imaginations ran through his mind. Finally, he smiled, logged in to his bib account, uploaded the photos, and then thought about it.

, wrote a paragraph and attached it.

Finally, give this scarf away.

He rarely wears a scarf, and the number of followers on his scarf is not that large, only over 600,000. This number of fans is incomparable to that of celebrities in the entertainment industry.

But many of them are authors and book fans in the online literary circle.

For example, Fang Yeming.

He is a fan of Sun Quan's books, and he is also an alliance leader. His ID at the starting point is "Ye Ming Zhi Yin".

He didn't join any of Sun Quan's book fan groups, but he silently paid attention to Sun Quan's scarf.

He prefers to play with scarves.

For example, at this time, he was leaning on his bedside after get off work and was brushing his scarf to pass the time. As he brushed and brushed, he suddenly discovered that Xianyu An Lao Sun had just issued a new scarf.

At first he thought he had made a mistake.

Because in his impression, Xianyu Anlao Sun seems a bit lazy and rarely wears a scarf.

But upon closer inspection, I found it was true.

Xianyu, my old man, Sun, really just gave out a scarf, it was like a fake.
