Chapter 308: The Three-Body Problem is Finished, and the System is About to Be Upgraded
The last shot of "The Three-Body Problem" takes place in the library.

Cheng Cheng sat upright by the window, the afternoon sun shone through the window and fell on him, giving him a faint golden glow.

The camera first scanned his back, then slowly approached, and the computer screen in front of him showed what he was typing.

The camera then turned to his chin, revealing the "tip of the iceberg" of his face.

Finally, the camera landed on his chest.

All I saw was the school emblem of "Shui Mu University" shining brightly.

-

At this point, the filming of "The Three-Body Problem" has finally been completed!

Since Cheng Cheng’s “The Three-Body Problem” has only released the first part, readers have no idea about the subsequent plot, and the crew members don’t know the significance of the last shot.

Only Cheng Cheng knows!
The man in the last shot is the real protagonist of the entire Three-Body Problem. What a man, a wall-facer, a sword-wielder—

Luo Ji!

Starring Cheng Cheng himself.

When the original version of "The Three-Body Problem" was filmed, Luo Ji's entire face was not shown because they had not finalized the casting at that time.

As for Cheng Cheng's version of The Three-Body Problem, although Luo Ji had already confirmed that he would play him, he still chose to handle it in the same way as the original version, showing only his back, chin, and fingers, without revealing his true face, thus retaining the sense of mystery.

However, after the TV series is broadcast, the audience will definitely recognize that it is him.

Exposing only a little bit would actually cause a greater shock to the audience.

The original version of "The Three-Body Problem" was released too late, so everyone knows who the "library writer" is.

When Luo Ji came out, the audience was excited, expectant, admiring, and awed.

But in this time and space, Cheng Cheng will not update the novel before "The Three-Body Problem" is released, so the audience will not know who the "library writer" is. But at the same time, the audience will also have emotions of anticipation and excitement, and want to know urgently who this man is and what the next plot will be like.

Especially when that person is Cheng Cheng.

Beret announces the completion of filming!
"Wow~"

Applause broke out! It echoed in every corner of the studio!
In the crew, every actor and every staff member was extremely excited and happy!

It’s as if this moment will be engraved in my heart forever.

Even the ants on the ground were pulled out to celebrate for a few minutes before leaving!
The man in the beret stood in the middle of the crowd, his face filled with satisfaction and pride. He raised his hands high, his voice trembling with excitement:

"Comrades! The filming of "The Three-Body Problem" is finally finished! Thank you for everyone's hard work during this period! Let's take pictures first. After the photos are taken, Director Cheng and I will treat everyone to a big meal. Don't be polite, order whatever you want and eat whatever you want!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous cheers broke out again.

This month was really not easy. Cheng Cheng is not like other directors. Other directors have to spend a lot of time and effort on shooting TV series and movies. They have to shoot a scene or a line of dialogue over and over again several times, dozens of times, or even dozens of times.

In many cases, the crew members have nothing to do, or they are just doing mechanical work. Although the actors are tortured, it is not that stressful.

But it’s different when you’re working for Cheng Cheng!

Cheng Cheng's fast shooting speed means that the entire crew must maintain high-efficiency operation at all times and be able to respond to Cheng Cheng's instructions at any time. This means that throughout this month, except for a temporary suspension due to weather reasons, they have been working at a high-intensity pace.

The same goes for actors. They have to travel to several places to film in a day, and the fatigue from the travel alone is too much for them.

Therefore, when the order to wrap up the film came out, they wanted to jump three feet high!

Of course, in addition to this, they also have aspirations and expectations for the TV series after it is released!
This filming mobilized so much manpower and material resources, brought together so many big-name actors, and cost a huge amount of money. No one dared to imagine what the final product would be like and what a sensation it would cause!

I’m afraid it will subvert the entire domestic entertainment industry’s definition of domestic dramas!
In the evening, Beret booked a hotel and treated everyone to a big dinner. Cheng Cheng also joined in the fun and invited some migrant workers to come along for the dinner.

The next day, the media reported:
"Yesterday, the first domestic science fiction drama "The Three-Body Problem", produced by Myth Company, co-produced by Vans Pictures and Imperial Film and Television, and directed by the famous director Cheng Cheng, a key project of the Three-Body Studio, was officially completed after 31 days of intense filming under the strong support and guidance of Tianxia Academy of Sciences.

The drama was meticulously created by executive producers Yan Gou'er, Geng Jiang, Le Zhanlin, and other industry elites as well as screenwriters.

In order to better restore the original plot, the production team filmed in more than 270 locations in the capital, Jizhou, Xueyu Province, Fenglin Province, and Lancang Province. It was also the first time to film in a national large scientific facility, the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC) National Laboratory, and the National Center for Nanoscience and Technology. It can be seen that the workload was huge and the process was difficult.

In recent years, with the rapid development of the domestic film and television industry, the production level of science fiction dramas has been continuously improving, but there is still a certain gap compared with foreign science fiction dramas.

Most domestic science fiction dramas are aimed at young children or young groups, and the content tends to be about love or adventure, with science fiction elements serving as a cover or embellishment.

Science fiction imagination is relatively limited, lacking depth and breadth, and is more of a simple imagination and presentation of existing or future technology.

In terms of creative style, domestic science fiction dramas tend to focus more on the compactness of the plot and the creation of characters, but are relatively weak in the presentation and exploration of science fiction elements.

In terms of production level, domestic science fiction dramas in the past were often restricted by funding, technology and other aspects, resulting in relatively rough visual effects and sound effects.

The sudden emergence of Cheng Cheng's "The Three-Body Problem" represents that the level of domestic science fiction novels has already stood out in the world.

The TV series "Three-Body Problem" has many implications for Tianxia Science Fiction
It can be said that "The Three-Body Problem" is an important milestone in Tianxia's sci-fi film and television creation, and an important step for Tianxia's sci-fi culture to go global. It not only assumes the corresponding social responsibility, but also takes into account the current audience's aesthetics and tastes of watching dramas. It is definitely the most anticipated blockbuster in the second half of this year!"

When the news came, everyone was excited!
"Wow, this is awesome, they've finished filming already?!"

“Ah? Ah? Ah? It’s only been a month, and Frog’s speed is really terrifying! All domestic entertainment directors should quickly follow Frog’s speed!” “Three bodies, three bodies, three bodies, three bodies, three bodies, three bodies!!! I want to see, I want to see, I want to see!”

"The Three-Body Problem has finally been filmed! That's awesome, bro!"

"Brother Pink Frog is so cool! He just won the Tianxia Literature Award, and within a few days, the TV series "The Three-Body Problem" was completed. His fans are ecstatic. I want Brother Pink Frog in my next life~"

"Wait for the release date announcement!"

"Please watch it as soon as it's finished. I want to watch it!!!"

"I'm really intrigued! Will it be aired this year?"

"Hurry up and start broadcasting! I can't wait any longer!"

"I will definitely eat this meal when the time comes!"

"The plot should be pretty good!"

"The Three-Body Problem" also created an official account and announced the news of its completion. News was flying all over the major marketing accounts. Some said that "The Three-Body Problem" cost 200 million yuan, some said it cost 600 million yuan, and some even said it cost 1 billion yuan. There was no accurate number, which made netizens jump.

Cheng Cheng locked himself in the editing room again, taking drugs while doing post-production editing.

In the early stage, in order to save time, he edited while shooting, and has already edited 6 episodes, which he handed over to the special effects team to do. Now there are 24 episodes left, which will probably take another four or five days.
Here, while he was in seclusion editing, "Unnatural Death" was updated to the fifth episode, "Masked Singer" was updated to the fourth episode, and "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" was completed.

"The Rumored Chen Qianqian" has a total of 24 episodes, with five episodes broadcast per week, and can be completed in one month.

The premiere of "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" had a viewership rating of 1.87%, and by the finale, it had reached 2.78%, which can be said to be a very good result. On Lemon Video, the number of views also reached 3.6 million.

CCTV is very satisfied, and Lemon Video is also very satisfied.

With the role of Chen Qianqian, Nilu Kezi successfully secured her position as a popular young actress and became the first first-tier actress of Shinhwa Company who rose to fame purely by relying on traffic.

She is not on the same path as Wang Hong and Yan Gou'er, or even as different from Wang Hong and Lin Yin, but her success cannot be denied.

From her first debut in "The Great Detective" to consolidating her position in "The Rumored Chen Qianqian", and her development in Japan, Nilu Kezi has already taken a different path.

Jiang Jun also received more attention and opportunities, and many scripts for male lead roles came to him.

Five days later, the editing of "The Three-Body Problem" was finally completed.

Cheng Cheng sent all the materials to the special effects team and asked them to work overtime to make special effects, but special effects can't be rushed, it takes time and patience to carve them out. However, Cheng Cheng knew what effect he wanted, so he didn't need to make several versions to compare, so he could save time to a certain extent.

Afterwards, he returned to his nest and had a good sleep.

After he woke up and washed his hands, he had just drawn a small prize when a system notification sounded!

[Warning, the host has used 500 points cumulatively, and the system has reached the upgrade conditions. Do you want to upgrade?]
coming!

coming!

It is coming!
Cheng Cheng suddenly jumped up from the bed with surprise in his eyes. The second system upgrade was here again!
He knew that the system would have a second upgrade!

He then looked at the upgrade instructions:
[After the system upgrade, the following changes will be made]
[1. The host's personal panel will be fully upgraded, adding sub-items of essence, energy, spirit, and life span.]
[2. You can get advanced magical items and skills when you draw a lottery: such as the Black History Eraser (a one-time item that changes a certain period of your life experience and changes the public's perception of you), Lifespan Increase Pills (can only be used on yourself), Non-human Physical Fitness Enhancement Pills (can only be used on yourself), Certain Physical Fitness Enhancement Pills (can be used on other people, depending on the closeness to the host, a certain amount of physical fitness will be obtained, the closer the closer, the more physical fitness will be obtained), Eye of Disease (one-time, can see the physical condition of a specified person)]
[3. Added point-adding function. Consume 100 million points to get one free point, which can be added to any sub-item except life span]
[4. Enhanced targeted purchasing function, you can spend a certain amount of points to put forward the host's requirements, such as subject matter, keywords, language, theme, plot, and customize entertainment works]
[The points required for this system upgrade are 1000w]
[Do you want to upgrade?]
Cheng Cheng looked at the 499 million points in his personal dashboard and thought:

Are you kidding me? You know I don't have enough points to level up, but you're still asking me?

However, this system upgrade reminder still surprised Cheng Cheng, because the four new functions are so powerful and practical!

The first thing that comes to the brunt is that the system has added sub-items regarding essence, qi, spirit, and lifespan.

Jing, Qi and Shen are important concepts in TCM theory, and their states directly reflect a person's overall health and vitality. Moreover, if we extend this concept further, will we really come up with something metaphysical?

His lifespan is even more incredible. This way, he can visually see how old he can live to.

The second thing is the high-level magical items that can be obtained. Just a few of them make Cheng Cheng so greedy that his mouth is dry. For example, the dark history eraser. If he uses it, will no one know that his house collapsed?

In the future, if someone reveals his secrets one day, will there be room for maneuver?

Does the life-increasing pill mean that he can live beyond 100 years and reach , , or even years?
There is also the 'Non-human Physical Fitness Enhancement Pill'. As Cheng Cheng had expected before, the primary system can only slightly improve his physical fitness, which is still within the human range. The intermediate system can enable him to reach the top human physical fitness, but once the system reaches the advanced level, it can break through the human physical fitness!
Certain physical fitness enhancement pills are also very practical, and according to the closeness to the host, a certain amount of physical fitness can be obtained. In other words, Jiang Nan, Wen Lian, and Li Zhuo can all use them.

However, the most powerful thing is to add some functions!
Now, his appearance is stuck at 97 points, his singing skills are stuck at 96 points, and his acting skills are stuck at 95 points. As his scores get higher and higher, it becomes increasingly difficult to draw appearance pills, singing experience books, acting experience books, etc.

But it’s different with the add point function, he can directly add to the full score!

Add whatever you want!
Moreover, he also has sub-items such as eyes, nose, mouth, ears, facial contour, teeth, proportions, skin color, skin texture, hair, eyelashes, body shape, fingers, muscles, and muscles. If all of them are completed, he will directly transform into a truly perfect human being!

The most perfect human being since the birth of the human species!
At that time, I am afraid that as long as he stands in front of people, they will admire him and worship him!

As for the fourth function, it is not bad when viewed alone, and is a significant improvement over the previous needle in a haystack. However, it is slightly inferior to the previous functions.

But no matter what, the upcoming system upgrade is a cause for celebration. Next, all we have to do is continue to accumulate points!
There is just one thing that makes Cheng Cheng a little worried, that is, after this upgrade, can the system be upgraded three times?

If it is possible to upgrade three times, how many points are required?

Could it be ten times the second upgrade?
One hundred million?
