Everyone is obviously more interested in the ups and downs of the ratings curve when it comes to the familiar plot of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". TVB employees are praying that they must have a good start today and don't let Pirates throw this hot potato at them...

If you look closely, there are data from each series yesterday at the beginning of the curve. The Crime Scene Investigation, which starts at 9 o'clock, has a viewership population of 17.873 million, followed by the second season of "The Big Bang Theory" at 8 o'clock, with a viewership population of 15.47 million. The third-ranked FOX will broadcast "Terminator Story" at 8 o'clock. The TV has a viewership population of 10.74 million, and the fourth is the CBS2 sitcom "My Mother's Romance" 9.56 million.

Let’s take a look at the estimated curve of Nelson’s ratings survey in “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”. The peak is 3.07 million and the lowest is 2.19 million. It ranks 15th among the 22 dramas screened at the same time, surpassing most paid cable TV series, but it is indeed the lowest among TVB.

Many Hong Kong actors who had no concept of ratings before were nervous when they looked at these curves. They did not expect that they were ranked last in the TVB...

"Director Li, will the crew have enough advertising fees? Our ratings are not ideal..." Nicholas Tingfeng, who was sitting next to Li Xiaole, couldn't help but ask him nervously, but Ha Ji-won next to him smiled and replied: "Don't worry, the estimated ratings for the first place in "The Walking Dead" last time were only 810,000..."

"How many ratings did the first episode "The Walking Dead" get?" Nicholas Tse asked expectantly.

"Average 4.27 million..." Ha Ji-won was stunned and replied.

All the actors were all sad. Although "The Walking Dead" was popular all over the United States, the first episode only received 4.27 million ratings. It was an orthodox American drama, and they are now a Chinese TV series... and the bottom line is 8 million ratings...

Li Xiaole looked calm and turned to ask Ha Ji-won: "How is the advertising now?"

"32 advertising companies have signed contracts with us and can bid for advertisements at any time. About 5,378 brands have already become interested in us, and it has risen to 5,380." Ha Ji-won looked at the latest data on his phone and watched the order data keep refreshing."

"Does Americans really like to watch our series..." Nicholas Tseong couldn't help but shake it at this time, and lowered his head and muttered, and the actors were also smiling bitterly. If their group of Hong Kong's Golden Age actors did not fail in the United States this time, then in the past 20 years, Chinese TV series would no longer have the courage to impact the US market...

"Why don't you like it?" Li Xiaole turned his head and asked him calmly, "Good film and television works cross national boundaries and cultures. How many people in our country can understand the stories in "The Lord of the Rings" and how many people understand the details of the characters described in "Pirates of the Caribbean"? For ordinary audiences, a novel and exquisite world is enough to attract them. As long as they are willing to try, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will have a great chance."

Li Xiaole's words did not make everyone feel at ease. Instead, they heard someone shouting: "It's going to start" that everyone hurriedly put on 3D glasses, then clenched their fists tightly, staring at the Ibox LCD TV in front of them. In fact, everyone hadn't seen the 3D version that had been produced yet, and they were completely unsure...

Finally the opening of the film begins, the familiar theme song sounded "I vaguely dreamed and seemed to have seen the waves in my heart..." In the surging strings, there were completely different pictures, grand war scenes, exquisite close-ups of characters, and various plots overlapping... Each exquisite continent, the city map was displayed in front of people. Whether it was light, rhythm, color, or the movement of the lens was completely different from the 83 version, it was completely like watching an epic movie...

But everyone was excited and a little disappointed, because in the opening of this movie, except for the subtitles that are 3D three-dimensional, there is no 3D effect... Looking at the rating curve, the opening of the movie is 2.43 million, 2.38 million...2.37 million... It actually shows a downward trend.

In the states of the United States, many viewers sitting in front of the TV and joining in the fun were obviously not interested. Many people felt a little bored when they looked at the faces and the songs they couldn't understand.

At the beginning of the camera, it is different from the traditional martial arts style that people think of. Once the music changes, it is wide and majestic but not without a trace of grace and sadness. In a towering and cold mountain gorge, a team of tall Jin and silver-armored warriors set out from Huining Mansion, the capital of Jin Kingdom, escorting an official in Song Dynasty clothes across the towering Great Wall. The iron chain was slowly pulled up, and the thick wooden door was slowly rising. The picture gave people a feeling of so cold and darkness.

Everyone held the torches and walked through the long corridor that felt like there was no end. When the last gate rose, everyone's eyes were filled with snow that was completely different from the previous black and heavy feeling. However, it obviously did not bring much ease, because the Great Wall was built by the Han people of all generations to resist the nomadic peoples on the vast grasslands in the north. At this moment, the pass was occupied by the Jin people, and the music in their ears was like sorrow.

Advance in this snowy team, passing through the mountain village along the way, he saw several burnt ruins. The battle between Jin and Song dynasties has not stopped, and the Jin troops plundered the villages from time to time, but many times historical dramas are mentioned in one stroke. At this time, on the screen, the audience saw bloody corpses, a scene of hell full of tragedy. The Song Dynasty officials were so scared that they turned pale and turned away in a hurry, but looked up and saw the body of a little girl nailed to a tree... They couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Cruel, cold-blooded and realistic... Many viewers who were still eating almost vomited out. Although Pirate Station marked it as a show that was watched by over 18 years old, it still caught people off guard... Is this still a martial arts drama known for its romantic and poetic pictures...

The setting in this place alone gives people an extremely real feeling. Zeng Zhiwei opened his mouth and thought he had an illusion. He turned to look at others and observed their reactions. He was surprised to find that everyone was very focused... What was going on? The plot has not started yet? Is it because they all participated in it that everyone was so focused?

No, it's not just that... These shots seem to have a magical power to pull people in instantly, and it doesn't feel like they are watching ordinary TV series, like they are experiencing the plot personally. Did Li Xiaole use the first perspective of the official of the Song Dynasty?

Is it a subtle sound? Well... it is indeed like those large American dramas. The figures of this scene are very delicate, and even the sounds of the friction between the armor and the collision between the sword and the scabbard are very clear and detailed... but it is not only that.

Zeng Zhiwei observed carefully and found that the camera was not smooth, but was in extremely slight ups and downs, which seemed to be the rhythm of a person's breathing. Although the audience could not feel it, this subtle way of using the camera was easy for people to see it. This method was used by Pirate Station before in the American dramas filming "The Walking Dead", but it was far from reaching this feeling...

"Why, Lezai, there is no 3D shot yet, why do I feel like I am there?" Zeng Zhiwei turned his head in confusion and looked at Li Xiaole and asked.

"Who said there is no 3D, take a closer look." Li Xiaole pointed to the 3D glasses on the bridge of his nose and said.

Zeng Zhiwei stared at the eyes widened and looked at it with concentration, and immediately showed a surprised expression. This real immersion actually comes from different real effects in front and behind the scenery.

The corpse of the terrifying girl nailed to the tree, the wellhead under the tree, and the baskets scattered on the ground, squid belts, clothes, fragments of limbs, and even the squirrels of snow blown by the wind have a subtle sense of distance. The feeling of space is almost exactly the same as in the real environment...

This staggered back and forth creates a delicate and subtle feeling. Although it is 3D, it may not be clear to ordinary people because of the lack of vigorous movement. However, the visual nerves can feel the nuances in it and feel the real sense of substitution that is completely different from the ordinary picture.

In the use of 3D pictures, many directors have a huge misunderstanding, that is, if there is a 3D picture, the audience must feel it strongly. For example, a picture with snow scenes must have snowflakes flying onto your face, making you feel that it is abrupt and frightening. Although this method will make the audience feel more obvious that it is 3D, it will actually make people feel very stressed in their visual nerves.

Because in this kind of picture, everything is usually flat, he made a snowflake that was added later to have a 3D effect, which made the visual nerves adapted to the real environment feel dislocation, making people feel dizzy. To put it bluntly, it is to show off their skills, and use 3D as a selling point to highlight them vigorously, but completely ignores this that will make the audience feel dizzy and nauseous.

Although Li Xiaole used 3D real scenes at the beginning, it reached the highest level of moistening things silently... It not only made you feel immersive, but also made your visual nerves less nervous, so many talents did not realize that this was a 3D lens at all.

"How many layers have you corrected here?" Zeng Zhiwei turned around in surprise and asked Li Xiaole.

"This large shot has 64 large set props, and I have trained it on 54 levels." Li Xiaole replied calmly on his face.

"54th-layer training" As the producer, Zeng Zhiwei, gasped... Many people have similar 3D movies, but the actual effect of 3D hanging on the name is very different. Except for the cartoons that can be used as original layers, real scene 3D shooting generally requires later adjustment to achieve a perfect three-dimensional effect. The more mature this sense of distance division, the more realistic it is, and the longer it takes.

For example, when the IMAX3D feature film "Polar Express" was released in 2004, known as the originator of the physical three D, many shots only divided into two levels, namely the plane layer and the layers of moving objects.
