Fish swim in the water, both the tail and the head. The past is empty, still like a dream. "This summer, multiple S-level puppet dramas were fiercely fought, while an online drama" Ancient Lovesickness Song "without a big star, big IP, and a large budget created a sense of existence through its high reputation. Over 110000 people scored 8.5 on Douban, and still have many" tap water "audience recommendations. And its starting point is the brainhole of a UP host, and what surprised everyone even more was that the entire drama was edited from a laptop. How to transform a video brain hole into a high word-of-mouth drama to break through? We talked to producer Cai Yuchao.

Just opened the first episode of "Ancient Lovesickness", you may wonder why the serial number says episode 14? With the clue of a piece of broken jade, the best-selling historical author Shen Buyan traveled to the Nansheng Kingdom and met the "generation demon queen" Lu Yuan in historical books. Through multiple encounters, he gradually understood and fell in love with the real Lu Yuan, determined to correct her name. But in this drama, the male lead's journey is' reverse ': with each journey, he encounters a younger female lead. During the six journeys, he went from unfamiliarity to familiarity with Lu Yuan and then to a deep affection for him; In Lu Yuan's growth line, she met the knowledgeable and affectionate Shen Buyan when she was young. As her love grew stronger, she could only see the other person who became more and more like strangers. In the first episode, Shen Buyan saw Lu Yuan who jumped from the city tower and committed suicide on his first crossing, but he didn't know that Lu Yuan had been waiting for years for this meeting. This has also become the most "abusive" aspect in the eyes of the audience: it is both the first episode of the male lead's perspective and the grand finale of the female lead's perspective.

This poignant love story spanning thousands of years moved many people and quickly exceeded a million views. At the beginning of 2020, producer Cai Yuchao saw a video recommended by a friend and sent an invitation to Sanqianyu: Are you interested in making it film and television? Then came the addition of director Zhizhu, a well-known photographer in the ancient fashion circle who had previously filmed short dramas such as "Donglan Xue". She was moved by the implicit and profound emotions in the story and quickly agreed to the invitation. The youngest screenwriter and editing director, Heya Yunduan, was born in 1998 and has created a mixed production video called "Chronicle of Chinese History" with over 20 million views. Sanqianyu, Zhizhu, and Heya Yunduan formed the earliest team to film and television "Ancient Acacia Song". They are all well-known UP hosts on Bilibili and have no previous experience shooting long dramas. However, in Cai Yuchao's view, they are all "potential stocks" worth being seen by everyone. Cai Yuchao has been involved in the production of dramas such as "Mountains and Seas", "Great Rivers", and "Beginnings". After leaving the noon sun, he founded Chaoye Film and Television. The post-90s producer admitted that he has two standards for choosing scripts and main creators. Firstly, he wants to create his own original project, and secondly, he hopes to find young creators. "Everyone has the same creative ideas, and the entire team is not like-minded. I think this is very important
