Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 344

Beijing, CCTV building.

Director Zhao was sitting on the sofa, and on the TV screen in front of him, the subtitles of "The End of the Show" appeared, and the theme song of "Unparalleled World" was mixed with the cast list in the form of floating subtitles.

The door was pushed open, the deputy director came in, and said with a smile: "The average income is 15.6, the highest number of viewers is 1.7 million, and this round of advertising revenue is 2.2 million."

Master Zhao smiled, and said with his forehead: "Very good."

The purchase of the premiere rights of "The Condor" for 100 million yuan per episode was finalized by him, and now it is the finale. The final average ratings reached a record-breaking 15.6, and the advertising revenue also reached 2.2 million, the highest ever in the history of the first round of a single drama.

He is satisfied.

Director Zhao picked up a news report to be published, which was written by a senior film and television editor in the editorial department of Taili, and he looked at it.

The title is——On the reason why "Sculpture of God" can be called a phenomenon-level TV series at present.

[First, the roles of Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl were chosen correctly. As popular public figures, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are familiar to the audience, and their good looks are in line with the audience's aesthetics.

The age difference between the two is only three years, and their temperament and body are also very well matched. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei will play Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv, and most audiences will not feel disobedient.

Second, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are lovers in reality. This is known to many audiences. Because of this, when audiences watch their Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv, they will naturally believe in their feelings, and the interpretation of true feelings increases. audience empathy.

Third, apart from the hero and heroine, the cast is excellent.Whether it's Li Mochou, Huang Rong and Guo Jing, or Gongsun Zhi, or even Zhen Zhibing, the performances of the corresponding actors should be effective.

Many viewers hate Zhen Zhibing, what I want to say is, hating is right.

If you don't hate Zhen Zhibing, where did Yang Guo and Xiao Longnv have so many ups and downs?
If there were no ups and downs, how could there be so many touching plots in the love between Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv?

If it doesn't touch people's hearts and resonate with the audience, how can "Sculpture of God" become popular?
Including Li Mochou, Huang Rong, and Guo Jing, as long as they have resistance to Yang Guo and Xiao Longnv's love, they all perform well.

Fourth, Zhang Jizhong is most commendable for his adherence to and firmness in his live-action shooting. The scheduling of the lens and lighting largely beautifies the natural scenery, beautifies the picture, and is very ornamental. Compared with recent costume dramas , to a certain extent attracted a lot of viewers.

Fifth, Zhang Jizhong has always paid attention to special effects. Whether it is "Swordsman" or "Dragon Babu", he has his own special effects film and television company as the foundation, and he is not sloppy in special effects. audience.

Sixth, the popular election of "Sculpture of the Gods" at the beginning greatly raised the starting point of the ratings of the first broadcast of "Sculpture of the Gods". Under the prerequisite of the script being qualified and the above five points being achieved, the ratings have been rising all the way.

Seventh, Mango TV, Shancheng TV, Jiangsu-Zhejiang TV, Shenghai TV and other channels deliberately avoided, reducing the scope for audiences to choose to follow dramas, making "Sculpture of God" the "only seedling" of the pre-heating drama in the nearly one-month schedule, thus Improved ratings.

Eighth, in the past two or three years, dramas such as history, the Republic of China, police and robbers, and criminal investigation have occupied about 60% of the domestic TV industry. According to online and offline surveys, 70% of young people do not like such dramas. This kind of drama provides the mainstream of ratings.

Since the Taiwanese drama "Meteor Garden" was introduced to the mainland in 01, the ratings of Taiwanese dramas broadcast every year have been hot, without exception.

What these idol dramas have in common is that the emotional line is the only main line, and the other branch lines and auxiliary lines serve the emotional line.

Although "Sculpture of the Gods" is an ancient puppet drama rather than an urban idol drama, its story structure fits with those of these Taiwanese dramas, so it has attracted a large number of young audiences to provide ratings.

There has never been a costume drama with emotion as the only main line in China. Therefore, based on the achievement of the first seven points, the phenomenon-level explosion of "Sculpture of God" can be expected to a certain extent.

Due to the popularity of "Sculpture of the Gods", the production industry may dig deeper into it, and it is expected that there will be a series of pure idol dramas with the theme of love in the domestic TV drama market.

However, there may be many followers, but how to innovate and create new things is the root of attracting audiences. 】

Director Zhao turned to the last page and read it, handed it to the deputy director and said, "It's remarkable, I can use this year's selection of films as a reference."

The deputy director took over the report, and heard the director say: "Tell us about the data situation to Brilliant Times."

"Yes." The deputy director nodded.

With the end of the first round of "Sculpture of the Gods", while online discussions are raging, major TV stations and people in the industry are also waiting for CCTV to release the results news. As a producer, Brilliant Times naturally pays attention to it at this moment.

Brilliant Times, Chairman's Office.

It was nearly 11 o'clock in the evening, and Wang Jinhua, Zhang Jizhong, and Yu Min were still sitting on the sofa chatting, and they were all waiting for news from CCTV.

Under the waiting chat, Wang Jinhua flipped through a document.

On the document, there are dense records of endorsement invitations.

The endorsement companies are different, but the same thing is that they all invite Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, and they have one thing in common, each endorsement is to invite Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei to endorse at the same time.

The endorsement business is not stupid. With the popularity of "Sculpture of the Gods", separating Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu is far less gimmick than combining Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu.

Looking at the micro-entertainment login page, with Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei as the back view, many young users have become accustomed to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei appearing at the same time.

With such a subconscious feeling, under the explosion of "Sculpture of the Gods", if Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are invited as double spokespersons at the same time, the commercial effect will be maximized.

Of course Wang Jinhua understands the meaning of these endorsers, and she has no objection, which is also in line with the "national couple" route she designed for Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi.

With the popularity of "Sculpture of God", "National Lovers" has initially succeeded.

For the rest, more exposure is needed to make the audience react subconsciously.

These endorsements have a spontaneous publicity effect of the influence of different social classes, which is exactly what she wants.

As for the endorsement, there are not many endorsements, so she divided the dozens of endorsement invitations into three grades, high-end, mid-range, and down-to-earth.

One endorsement for each grade is enough.

This approach is to allow Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi to further comprehensively open up the popularity of all social classes.

But she was going to let Liu Xiaoli decide which endorsement to accept, or let Liu Xiaoli, Chu Xuan, and Qianqian discuss it by themselves.

Liu Xiaoli has studied with her for a long time, and she has successively handed over Chu Xuan and Qianqian's business to Liu Xiaoli.

Liu Xiaoli wanted to be Chu Xuan and Qianqian's manager and assistant. Although this is rare in the entertainment circle, they had such a condition, and she fulfilled it.

As Chu Xuan's older sister, she just made suggestions at critical moments.

Wang Jinhua put down the document, and glanced at the other documents on the coffee table from the corner of the eye. One was the script of "Struggle", the other was the variety show plan for "I Am an Actor", and the other was the recruitment plan for the national image endorsement of "I Am an Actor". One is the invitation list and business invitation letter drawn up by the stars who are the teaching teachers behind the scenes of "I Am an Actor".

I heard that Chu Xuan called today and said that if "Hope" goes well, it will be finished tomorrow, and "Zhu Xian" is about the same.

He also remembered that Chu Xuan and Qianqian, as producers, had to watch the post-production of two film and television dramas, and were busy with graduation.

Looking at the documents on the coffee table again, Wang Jinhua said to herself, "These two have been very busy this year."

Suddenly, a phone rang.

Zhang Jizhong and Yu Min stopped communicating.

Under the watchful eyes of the two, Wang Jinhua picked up the phone to answer.

With a smile on her face, Wang Jinhua hung up the phone and said: "15.6, in the current situation where the ratings of TV dramas are not getting better every year, this record is estimated to be broken by no drama in the future."

Zhang Jizhong and Yu Min grinned and looked at Wang Jinhua, especially happy.

As a producer and director, this achievement can be regarded as an honor to stay in the industry.

"The stone in my heart has also been put down, and I will prepare "The Deer and Ding Tale" next." Zhang Jizhong stretched his body and leaned back on the sofa.

At the same time, CCTV released the data of "Sculpture of the Gods" on the Internet, which caused quite a stir.

CCTV's official media: [Title—Leading the entire time, "Sculpture of God" set a ratings record for the past two years!

With the preheating of the national election at the beginning of last year, "The Legend of Condor Heroes" finally ushered in its premiere on February 2006, 2.

In the nine episodes of the premiere week, the enviable emotions, beautiful pictures, hidden murderous intentions, unexpected accidents, unsettled plots, and ups and downs of the plot made the audience linger and discuss endlessly.

In the follow-up episodes, from a panoramic perspective, a magnificent world of rivers and lakes will be unfolded; the battle between countries will be used to show the chivalrous spirit of the great chivalrous; the road of interrogation.

From the initial laughter of the hero and heroine to survive in peace, there are tears, to the bitterness and sweetness of separation and reunion, to the final beautiful ending witnessed by the whole people, let us experience a scene of love that is unparalleled in the world.

There are many songs and tears, and the joys and sorrows are full.

Even if there are regrets, life is nothing more than that.

The advent of what love is?Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv told us the answer.

During the broadcast period, the first broadcast of "Sculpture of the Gods" won the first place in the prime-time ratings with an average rating of 13.77!

The hot discussion on the first broadcast was on the hot search, and it dominated the list for five weeks!

Now "The Condor" is over, with an average rating of 15.6 and the highest number of viewers of 1.7 million, setting a record for the ratings of domestic TV dramas in the past two years!
This is a proof of the prosperity of domestic TV dramas, and it is also a grand occasion created by the pursuit of the market.

Congratulations! @《神雕》Official @照灿时代官方@楚轩@刘艺妃@……]

Xiaoyun from Shenghai was sitting in front of the computer. When she saw the news, she smiled and was very happy.

After getting the official confirmation, seeing the popularity of "Sculpture of the Gods", she thought that Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi would get better and better because of it. As their loyal audience fans, she was very happy.

Pull down the page, and many night owl netizens are discussing it.

[1.7 million viewers?Awesome! 】

[An average of 8 people, one person has watched "Sculpture of the Gods", Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi took off! 】

[More than that, there will be a follow-up replay. 】

For the ratings, the audience does not have much intuitive experience.

But for the intuitive numbers, the audience all exclaimed.

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are about to become popular, this is the audience's final impression.

[There should be no one in the country who is more popular than Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi right now? 】

【Zhao Wei and Zhang Ziyi can compare. 】

[Where's Chenglong?What about Li Lianjie? 】

[You can’t compare with these people, Cheng Long and Li Lianjie are already the banners of Chinese movies, well, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are still far from reaching this level. 】

[Indeed, the levels of influence are different and cannot be compared.But in terms of popularity, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are unmatched in mainland China. 】

Xiaoyun pouted, although in her heart Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are indeed inferior to actors who have influenced the world like Cheng Long, but Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are still young, where will they go in the future?No one knows.

As a loyal audience fan, she is looking forward to it.

Anyway, the soaring popularity of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei is real. The number of followers of Guangwei Entertainment has increased by as much as 400 million each, and the number of followers of both has reached about 1300 million. The total number of users is only 4000 million. For a micro-entertainment company with more than [-] yuan, this number is terrifying.

However, there are many people who are popular, and there are always some gossips to attack Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, but if there is one organization and no leader, these remarks will be washed away by normal comments in an instant.

["Sculpture of God" is over, and it's going to be boring again. 】

[Sit and wait for "Zhu Xian". 】

["Zhu Xian" is still far away, it hasn't finished yet, and I don't know how long the post-production will take, so wait slowly. 】

[Concubine Liu Yi said that she will film a TV series with Chu Xuan this year. I am looking forward to it. As long as it is the two of them's drama, it will definitely be something to watch. 】

[There is no news at all. Instead of looking forward to this, it is better to look forward to the sci-fi micro-movie of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. After all, it is just a micro-movie, so it doesn't need to spend too much time anyway. 】

【Hey, wait a minute. 】

Along with the divergent discussions on the Internet, until the next day, the heat rose again during the day.

In the studio of the film and television base, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi learned about the situation of "Sculpture of the Gods" through Sister Hua's phone last night, and filmed as usual today.

"54 scenes, 1 shot, 7 times, let's start!"

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi are wearing spacesuits.

Chu Xuan twisted the iron ring on the hatch, ready to open the hatch.

At the moment when the hatch was about to open, Chu Xuan turned his head to look at Concubine Liu Yi, and stretched out a hand.

Concubine Liu Yi naturally held his hand. She knew what was going to happen next after experiencing the previous plot.

Chu Xuan held Concubine Liu Yi's hand tightly with one hand, and opened the hatch completely with the other.

In an instant, as if there was a monster attacking outside, a staff member pushed the hatch open violently, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi were lifted up by the coercion at the same time, and their bodies flew into the air.

This is the last scene in their filming plan. The hero and heroine find the hatch leading to the outside world.

Due to the large pressure difference between the outside air and the air in the cabin, the moment the door is opened for ventilation, the outside air will pour back into the cabin like a hurricane.

Chu Xuan tightly grasped the iron ring on the hatch, and Concubine Liu Yi held his hand.

The bodies of the two people were kept parallel to the ground, as if they were being blown in by a hurricane, and they would be blown away if they were not careful.

After a few seconds, the pressure of the air seemed to be balanced, indicating that the hurricane-like airflow had stabilized.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's weightlessness caused by gravity slowly landed under the control of Mr. Wia.

They started to walk out, walking very slowly, because if they walked fast, they would float. This is the setting of "Hope" based on scientific evidence.

They walked out of the hatch and looked around at the green cloth in front of them.

And this scene is connected with the first scene of the two of them in "Hope".

In front of the monitor, Wen Muye looked at the screen, then at Li Xue and Liu Yi.

Li Xue and Liu Yi nodded.

Wenmu smiled, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Finished!"

On the set, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei took off their protective masks, looked at each other and hugged each other.

"It's finished." Concubine Liu Yi raised her head in Chu Xuan's arms and said.

Chu Xuan lowered his head and kissed her, and after parting, he led Concubine Liu Yi to the dressing room.

"How do you feel?" Chu Xuan turned his head to look at her.

Concubine Liu Yi raised her eyebrows, thought for a while, stroked her hair and said, "It's very cool, because I have experienced a type of role that I have never played before;"

"It's hard, because what we're acting doesn't fit in with real life;"

"It's very fulfilling, because we're filming domestic films that don't have sci-fi, and we've gone through many difficulties and finally completed it;"

"I am also more confident, because I have mastered advanced acting methods and become a real actor, narrowing the performance gap with you."

"At the same time, I also learned a lot of shooting techniques and methods of setting scenes."

"Overall, the harvest is full."

Hearing what Concubine Liu Yi said, Chu Xuan nodded: "I agree, keep working hard."

Concubine Liu Yi gave a pretty "hmm", and because of the joy brought by the finale, she shook Chu Xuan's hand and walked into the dressing room with Chu Xuan.

After a few minutes, the two changed into their usual clothes and came out.

Wen Muye, Li Xue and other teachers applauded to celebrate the finale, but also to express their recognition for Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's attitude of overcoming difficulties in the filming process.

"Thank you teachers."

"Thank you teachers."

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi smiled slightly, clasped their hands together and bowed slightly to express their gratitude.

A 28-minute micro-movie with a normal theme can be completed within a week at most if the shooting of the same scene does not require transitions.

But "Hope" is a sci-fi theme. Under the running-in and pondering of the teachers, in the absence of a lot of film and television industry infrastructure, and the joint efforts of everyone, it took more than a month to get it done.

During this period, teachers from various departments have made great contributions, but the contributions of the two actors are not that great, and they only need to act according to the guidance of the teachers.

But the two of them are not only actors, but also producers and story providers, and their contribution is the most important.

Under Wen Muye's order, the crew began to dismantle the scene and restore everything in the studio.

Not only Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, but even the teachers were a little bit moved when they saw this scene.

This is where they worked hard for more than a month, and it is about to disappear like this. Before leaving, I still miss it a little bit, after all, everyone's hard work is involved in it.

But we must look forward. No matter what, a film and television drama is the result of everyone's joint efforts. It is a good thing to successfully complete it. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's sci-fi trilogy plan can be regarded as a small step forward.

Wen Muye and the teachers were dismantling the equipment, while Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei came to another large studio, which was the studio where the crew of "Zhu Xian" was located.

"Producer Chu and Producer Liu are here?" Huang Lei looked at the two people who came, with a playful expression on his face.

All the teachers and actors turned their heads to look at it and smiled.

"Get ready!" Zhao Jian saw that Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi were coming, and gave the order.

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi greeted everyone, then sat down in front of the monitor and looked at the screen.

Huang Xuan and Dong Xuan took their positions, and the filming began after the record was played.

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi looked at the script in their hands. The green cloth was the scene of the ruins of Caomiao Village, so they knew what scene they were filming.

On the set, next to a built wooden house, Huang Xuan was sawing wood with tools, doing what ordinary people do.

The other end of the green cloth represents the entrance of Caomiao Village.

Dong Xuan showed up, looked at the only wooden house that she knew was newly built, and heard the movement from the wooden house, although there was no one there, her eyes rippled, guessing that Zhang Xiaofan was here.

Dong Xuan walked forward slowly while looking at the surrounding environment.

Suddenly, her face paused.

There is a bell on the eaves of the wooden house.

A piece of light green gauze is wrapped around the bell, which is the corner of Baguio's clothes.

The corner of Dong Xuan's mouth curled into a dimple, and she waved at the bell in a friendly greeting.

Unexpectedly, the bell rang like a "jingling bell", as if Baguio was returning a friendly greeting to Lu Xueqi.

Dong Xuan was stunned, no matter whether it was a true spirit appearing or an accident, she understood that Zhang Xiaofan turned into Ghost Li because of Baguio's death, and now he returns to Zhang Xiaofan, the only thing that remains unchanged is that the protection of Baguio has always existed.

She seemed to understand Zhang Xiaofan's heart, so she stopped.

Huang Xuan walked out from the wooden house because the bell rang.

He looked at the beautiful figure at the entrance of the village, his heart was filled with turmoil, and he couldn't help pursing his lips.

But that beautiful figure didn't move, and neither did he.

The two of them just looked at each other from a distance, speechless for a long time.

In the end, they just looked at each other and smiled.

In front of the monitor, Zhao Jian picked up the walkie-talkie: "Finished!"

"Oh——" Su Chang and Zhao Liying, the young actors, were jumping and waving their arms, full of joy.

Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei, Zhao Jian, Huang Lei, and the actors and teachers also laughed, falling into the festive atmosphere.

So far, "Hope" and "Zhu Xian" have both been completed.
