Chapter 1280 The Second Season Plan of "A Bite of China"

After the two chatted about domestic travel chaos for a while, Xiao Qi asked another question.

That's what the news media reported, the news that Xiaoniao.com is preparing to start filming the second season of "A Bite of China"

When mentioning this proud work of Xiaoniaowang, Shen Wuyan felt unstoppable pride, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

"A Bite of Huaguo" is not the first program on Xiaoniao.com, but "The Voice of Huaguo" is.

In terms of making money, the broadcast costs, advertising costs, concerts, sales of copyrights to foreign countries, etc. of "The Voice of Huaguo" add up to a net profit of about 1.8 billion.

"The Kingdom of China on the Bite of the Tongue" is not inferior. More than 20 local TV stations have purchased copyrights for each episode, with an average copyright fee of 30 million yuan per episode, plus Xiangshui TV's advertising revenue and sales to foreign TV stations. 1.6 billion profits.

But no matter in terms of influence or the depth of the program, "A Bite of Huaguo" is simply not comparable to "The Voice of Huaguo".

Even because the copyright of "A Bite of China" was purchased by the United States, France, the United Kingdom and other countries, Xiaoniao.com was named and praised by the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China, praising them for their excellent filming. The documentary program introduced a beautiful Huaguo to the world.

It is precisely because of the praise of most of the country's ministries and commissions that Xiaoniao.com's position in the video website has truly become the undisputed number one.

In the past, some relevant departments had some objections to the news interviews of Xiaoniao.com, and were distressed by Xiaoniao.com’s exposure of food safety and product quality issues from time to time, but now that the boss praised them, some noises naturally weakened. .

A total of 56 episodes of "A Bite of China", plus 8 episodes of the Spring Festival special, did not affect people's enthusiasm for watching at all, and it is now the end of August. The first season has only played to about 42 episodes, and there are still 14 episodes to go, and a group of viewers outside are looking forward to the content of the second season.

In the eyes of many middle-aged and elderly people, "A Bite of China", which is broadcast every five days, has become a regular leisure program for them after dinner, so that they can appreciate God's gift of food. I can feel the throbbing of the heart that has never changed.

If it ends suddenly, they don't know what to do.

Therefore, even in the Internet age, major TV stations and Xiaoniao.com have continuously received letters from viewers. The total number is at least 80 million. The content is without exception a request to continue filming "A Bite of China" "The second season.

In this era when CCTV has long been unable to seek defeat alone except for the Spring Festival Gala, weather forecast and news broadcast, the most important thing for major TV stations is the ratings. This not only makes your TV station more profitable, but also greatly improves the reputation of the province and city where the TV station is located.

Before "Journey to the Yangtze River" and "Journey to the Yellow River" started broadcasting, who knew Hanchang Satellite TV and Ludong Satellite TV?

But just because of the broadcast of these two programs, the two David TVs carry some private goods from time to time and introduce their own provinces. Recently, in the Internet search, the reputation has basically been as famous as several first-tier provinces, at least in other provinces. in the minds of the Chinese people. No longer the role of passer-by.

Not to mention Xiangshui Satellite TV, they earned 500 million yuan in "A Bite of China" in one go. Not including the ratings of "A Bite of Huaguo" when it was broadcast, even CCTV's program had to kneel down. Xiangshui Satellite TV's reputation has grown from this, and it is almost a certain Huaguo local satellite TV. First.

But Xiangshui Satellite TV is not without regrets, Director Ouyang Yin talked about it with his friends in private. He still admits that his vision is not far enough.

Originally, I watched the samples of "Journey to the Yangtze River" and "Journey to the Yellow River", which were just a simple program introducing the local customs of mountains and rivers. I felt that the asking price of Xiaoniao.com was too expensive, and it seemed to overlap with "A Bite of China", so Xiangshui Satellite TV withdrew from the competition.

In the end, Hanchang Satellite TV and Ludong Satellite TV took advantage of it. Let them shine.

If there hadn’t been this mistake, the combination of the three programs “A Bite of China”, “Journey to the Yangtze River” and “Journey to the Yellow River” wouldn’t have killed the crap of CCTV and made all major TV stations worship?

It is precisely because of the previous miss that for the second season of "A Bite of China", Director Ouyang Yin issued a must-kill order, must ask Xiaoniao.com to continue filming, and must win the premiere rights, preferably Exclusive broadcast rights!

As long as these two goals can be achieved, he asked Yao Pingyuan, the deputy director of the first season of "A Bite of China", to agree to all conditions, regardless of cost or loss.

Therefore, since August, Yao Pingyuan has flown to Rongcheng almost every two days, either to invite Shen Wuyan to dinner, or to invite the high-level executives of Xiaoniao.com to have dinner and play. Anyway, the purpose is one. "The Kingdom of China on Earth" slipped away from my hand.

He wasn't the only one who came, the rest of Dragon TV, Capital TV, Jiangnan Satellite TV, etc. were also eyeing each other, and the atmosphere was very tense.

In fact, needless to say, under the temptation of huge money and reputation, the second season of "A Bite of China" had already started to be approved in June, but because July and August were too hot, it was only Several program groups have set off, and the rest are still collecting materials.

As the trump card program of Xiaoniao.com, the second season of "A Bite of China" must be more cautious than the first season. Not to mention Shen Wuyan, even the filming crew of "A Bite of China" would not want to Smash this signboard.

After all the shooting plans in March were completed, in addition to editing and post-production, they gathered together to think about what else could be filmed in the second season.

After all, the first season of the 64-episode "A Bite of China" has already filmed more than half of Huaguo. If the second season is to be filmed, not only must it avoid repetition, but it must also have new ideas.

The mental workers were the hardest. It took them more than three months to search for information and hold meetings to discuss, before finally handing in a plan for the second season to Shen Wuyan.

The second season of "A Bite of China" is expected to be 28 episodes plus the same 8-episode Spring Festival special. Although it is almost half of the first season, if you want to do better, you have to do it more carefully.

After pondering for a few days, Shen Wuyan finally agreed to their plan, because they, the directors and cameramen responsible for filming and editing, are the ones who know "A Bite of China" best.

The beautiful girl has always remembered what Xiao Qi said, "Let the professional work be handed over to professional people, so that we can do our best", so as long as we grasp the general direction and how to deal with it specifically, these film crews still have a lot of autonomy right.
