Chapter 1101 Melee to No Avail

On New Year's Day, not only movies are competing for the market, but TV series are also competing for the market.

On the first day of the new year this year, Kylin TV announced early that "Xin Zha Senior Brother 2" starring the popular fried chicken Liang Chaowei will be featured in this schedule, which attracted the attention of many teachers and young men and women.

Shaw Brothers is not inferior at all. They released Liang Yusheng's "The Footsteps" produced by Wang Tianlin, starring the distracted and handsome Miao Qiaowei as the popular martial arts protagonist Zhang Danfeng.

As the most outstanding male protagonist written by Liang Yusheng, and even one of the top three most perfect male protagonists in all novels, Zhang Danfeng has a charm that is not inferior to that of Chu Liuxiang and Yang Guo in the hearts of countless martial arts fans.

Miao Qiaowei's rise has been very obvious over the past year. He is tall and handsome, and he is very similar to Zhang Danfeng, so martial arts fans are also looking forward to his performance in "The Shadow of the Shadow".

ATV launched "Love Is Priceless", starring Zheng Shaoqiu and newcomer He Jiajin.

Judging from the trailer, this is a grudge drama about the Republic of China, and ATV has always been famous for its grudge dramas about the Republic of China. The series "Love from the Earth" back then made TVB and JiaTV unable to breathe, and this time it is again It is a work written by screenwriter Yin Jun, which makes it even more worthy of everyone’s attention.

Not to mention that Zheng Shaoqiu has rarely appeared in Republican dramas in the past two years. This actor has become the number one TV star in Hong Kong since he played Chu Liuxiang. He has always been the favorite of all the teachers. With him around, the ratings are basically useless. Don't worry.

TV viewers in Xiangjiang actually have a very happy worry now.

They wanted to watch any one of the three TV series and didn't want to let them go. However, all three were scheduled at the same time, which really embarrassed them.

But what is even more difficult is the three major TV stations.

The TV series in their hands are actually the work of their painstaking efforts.

I originally thought that at any time, I would be able to crush the enemy, but I didn't expect that they would collide with each other like this.

You have to say that if anyone gives in and moves the schedule, or even just moves it from the 8 o'clock slot to the 9 o'clock slot, then both sides can be avoided. But at the beginning of this year, who is willing to give in like that?

Doesn't giving in mean that I think I'm inferior to others and don't even have the courage to fight?

no!

There is no loser formation, even if a winner must be determined, you cannot retreat without a fight, otherwise how will the audience view you? What would advertisers think?

Therefore, even TVB, which is the weakest in big dramas, can only grit its teeth and persist, let alone Kirin TV and ATV, which are already full of confidence.

So this unprecedented situation of three major dramas appearing together appeared like this.

Viewers who like to watch TV finally chose the channel they wanted to watch after making a difficult decision. When the time came, they started watching the TV series with gusto.

The audience was so enthusiastic and lively that when the ratings came out the next day, the relevant people from the three TV stations were not happy.

On New Year’s Day, 8 o’clock viewing rankings:

The first place is "Xin Zha Senior Brother 2", Kylin TV, with a ratings of 39%.

Second place, "Love Is Priceless", ATV, with a ratings of 33%.

The third place, "The Movie", Wireless TVB, with a ratings of 28%.

Damn it!

What the hell is this?

Kylin TV: Damn it, this is a TV series starring Tony Leung! The script was written by Mr. Jun! What a classic sequel! The production is so sophisticated, how could it not even reach 40%? Usually a ratings of 50% is worthy of us!

ATV: Holy shit, Zheng Shaoqiu doesn’t even work anymore, does he? Yin Jun's script doesn't work anymore, right? Why are you so incapable of choosing? We should obviously be number one, okay?

Wireless TVB: Two big guys, please stop making trouble, okay? It’s obvious that I’m the one suffering the most, okay? This is already our strongest lineup, but it was beaten to the point where it couldn’t even get a 30% rating. It’s us who should cry!

Even though the three TV stations were on the verge of tears here, the "Kilin Daily" complaint column early in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year was extremely lively.

Apart from the movie crowd, who were discussing "October 2016" and "Good Boys", the TV audience obviously spoke more and made more comments.

It is worth mentioning that the comment column for complaints now has a whole page, but the comment positions are still in short supply. It is not the best and most distinctive comment, so you can’t even think of squeezing in.

"So handsome! As expected, Zhang Weijie is the most enjoyable! We can't even turn our eyes away from him!"

"Tony Leung is indeed a genius named by Mr. Jun himself to join the industry! Zhang Weijie was played brilliantly by him, and it is even better than the first one!! Kylin TV has him, is it still afraid of Liu Songren, Zheng Shaoqiu, and Huang Yuanshen?"

"I think people of a slightly older age don't like that kind of noisy fashion dramas, but prefer flavorful stories like "Priceless Love". Zheng Shaoqiu plays a middle-aged man for the first time, which is very good. Very handsome! He Jiajin is also particularly outstanding, come on!"

""Love Is Priceless" is so good! My mother and I watched it together. This kind of TV series with stories and plots can make people reminisce about the past, which is what I like the most!"

"We buddies like to watch martial arts dramas the most. Miao Qiaowei is indeed a new generation of youngster promoted by Mr. Shao Liu. He is much better than Huang Rihua. His handsomeness is in another category. Although Tony Leung is also very handsome, But I think the costume hero is the best! After watching the first episode of "The Shadowman", Zhang Danfeng is very impressive, very good, keep working hard and kill Kylin TV!"

"TVB is gradually rising this time! They chose the right type of TV series, and Producer Wang Tianlin personally produced them. The production cost of each episode has reached a new high. Now it seems that it is very worthwhile and very good! It’s not that TVB has been suppressed too much in the past two years. We are sure that this time it can become the number one in the ratings without any hindrance! It’s a pity. Although we haven’t seen the ratings released tomorrow, it should still be Jun Shao and Liang Chao. Wei’s combination is number one, right? They are too strong!”

"..."

The audience was excited, but the three major TV stations who also saw these comments were very uneasy.

Because the people who support each drama seem to be the same, and there is no gap at all. This means that there is no gap in the ratings!

But the three general managers are considered veterans of foresight. They decided to wait another day and see, and they could not be so complacent.

As a result, when the ratings came out the next day, they all took a breath of air-conditioning.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the 8 o'clock ratings are as follows:

The first place is "Xin Zha Senior Brother 2", Kylin TV, with a ratings of 37%.

Second place, "Love Is Priceless", ATV, with a ratings of 34%.

The third place, "The Movie", Wireless TVB, with a ratings of 29%.

Compared with the first day, "Xin Zha Senior Brother 2" actually dropped two points, while "Friendship is Priceless" and "Ping Zong Xia Video" each increased by one percentage point.

Seeing that "The Footprint" was about to lose 30%, Liang Shuyi couldn't sit still.

However, Liang Shuyi finally chose to watch and wait and see. If the decline continued, she would deal with it immediately.

Wireless TVB is naturally happy. They feel that "The Shadowman" will definitely rely on its strong quality to slowly climb all the way up, defeating the two opponents above, and legitimately become the number one.

ATV is more confident. Under the circumstances, our "Friendship is Priceless" will surpass "Brother Xin Zha 2" in just two days. It will once again attack Kylin TV and let others see that times have changed. Well, Jun Shao’s script may not necessarily be the best for you. As long as we choose the right protagonist, we can still achieve results even if Jun Shao’s script is not top-notch!

All right.

No matter what they thought, once the ratings for the third day came out, the mood of these three companies was different again.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the 8 o'clock ratings are as follows:

The first place, "Xin Zha Senior Brother 2", Kylin TV, with a ratings of 40%.

Second place, "Love Is Priceless", ATV, with a ratings of 30%.

The third place, "The Movie", Wireless TVB, with a ratings of 30%.

Kylin TV: "!?"

ATV: "..."

Wireless TVB: "..."

Damn, what are you going to do? ?

Wasn't it promised that "Brother Xin Zha 2" could not withstand the impact of two equally excellent TV series, and would eventually decline slowly?

Why did their ratings suddenly soar again?

There is also "Priceless Love". Obviously everyone praised it, saying that Zheng Shaoqiu brought the character to life, but He Jiajin was also a newcomer, full of youth, and very attractive? Why did you abandon such a good TV series like ours?

The final episode of "The Shadows" was also desperate. The ratings were rising little by little every day. How long will it take for it to become the number one in the ratings? Don't keep chasing after we have finished broadcasting, that's the joke!

KyLin TV was not too happy either. It rebounded after falling. Who knows whether it will rise or fall next time?

With such a complicated mentality, the general managers of the three TV stations finally gathered in a private room of a Western restaurant for dinner at noon on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year to discuss what to do next.

"What else can we do? Let's broadcast it in different schedules!" Fang Yihua was the first to say, "Let's discuss it, isn't there a 7, 8, and 9 o'clock schedule? Let's see who gives in, and then other TV stations If you give in when the next drama is aired, it will be fair compensation, right?"

"I think it's okay. There's no need to be so nervous. Let's see again!" Liang Shuyi replied with a smile.

She is Fang Yihua's mortal enemy. Although the two TV stations have eased a lot in the past two years because of the good relationship between Shao Liuye and Yin Jun, she still doesn't like Fang Yihua.

Huang Xizhao was on the side trying to smooth things over, "Of course what Mr. Liang said is good, but Mr. Fang is also right. I also think that when we sit together today, we should discuss a good result, otherwise all three of our families will be together. The investment was huge, and if they collided with each other like this, not only did they lose ratings, but they also failed to please the audience. Why is this?"

As he said this, the two women extinguished the tense atmosphere a little.

Things like grudges can only be done in their free time. Now that it is related to the TV station's ratings and future advertising fees, they can't be so willful and noisy.

"Let's do this. This time Kylin TV will have the 8 o'clock slot, and you will allocate the rest. Next time, we will also let the 8 o'clock slot come out." Liang Shuyi expressed her meaning.

"Oh, it's so simple and easy to say. Why do you want us to give up the prime time slot on the first day of the new year?" Fang Yihua was dissatisfied, "You guys give it up, we have the eight o'clock slot! From now on, I will pay you two eight Time slot to click on!”

"Haha, do we still need you to give in? Which TV series on Kylin TV is not better than yours?" Liang Shuyi sneered, "If it weren't for ATV's participation this time, how much ratings do you think TVB TVB could get? Rate? It’s good to keep 35%!”

"Then you can give it a try!" Fang Yihua was not weak at all, "We'll keep broadcasting like this and see whether your ratings are high or ours slowly climbs up!"

Seeing that the two women were about to quarrel again, Huang Xizhao felt a little bit dumbfounded.

Did he think he made a mistake by inviting the two of them here today?

I want to think about it, but I still have to say: "Ahem, two of you, two of you! Speaking of which, the three of us are colleagues who have worked together. After all, this fate is still there, right? Don't argue anymore, we are serious Handling things well is the most important thing, right?"

The three of them have indeed worked at Wireless TVB, but their relationship is definitely not good. But as Huang Xizhao said, we are here to solve problems, not to quarrel. Being too angry will not help solve the problem.

So the two women finally felt a little calmer.

"I see, solving the problem is the most important thing. Let me suggest what to do!" Huang Xizhao sighed, "This time, Kylin TV's "Brother Xinzha 2" will still maintain the 8 o'clock slot, and our "Friends Without Friendship" "Price" mentions the 7 o'clock slot, and TVB TVB's "The Footsteps" has dropped to the 9 o'clock slot. ...After this, in April and May, ATV will get an 8 o'clock prime time slot that is not very competitive. "TVB will get a month of 8 o'clock prime time in June as compensation. What do you think?"

"No." Liang Shuyi shook her head, "Our satellite TV channel will be launched in June, and then there will be an annual drama... Oh, the one starring Huang Rihua! There is no way to avoid this. Change it. The time period is fine.”

"Then let's go to October!" Huang Xizhao changed his words.

The reason why I won’t talk about July, August and September is because these months are also prime time periods, students will join in, and the three major TV stations will compete for the ratings in these time periods, so there is no way to give it to others. Everyone relies on their true ability. Have a meal.

Fang Yihua originally wanted to refute, but suddenly Liang Shuyi mentioned that Kylin TV would start broadcasting to all Asia in June. She thought that this small and weak TV station that was almost killed by TVB a few years ago has actually grown to such a huge scale. Taking a step forward, I felt a little melancholy, and suddenly lost interest in the dispute in front of me.

Since Fang Yihua didn't even speak, the matter was settled.

Anyway, ATV and TVB did not lose anything, and the compensation given by Kylin TV was not small.

Even a discerning person can see that the two TV stations are giving in, but what can be done?

ATV still wants a few of Yin Jun's scripts every year, and with Qiu Degen's relationship, how could it possibly go against Kylin TV?

Fang Yihua knew that Huang Xizhao was giving in, but she also had no better idea.

On the one hand, Kylin TV is too strong, and Yin Jun is rich and talented. TVB has been unable to develop in recent years.

On the other hand, Yin Jun just agreed to let Shaw Brothers join his script "Wind Rescue", obviously he wanted to take care of them to make money, but you ended up working with Kylin TV, which is really embarrassing.

Liang Shuyi was also not very happy.

There was deep vigilance in her heart.

Unexpectedly, these two TV stations now have the capital to compete with Kylin TV in TV dramas. We should work harder to truly stand out! !
