Chapter 2142 Come Out, Drama! (Down)

The two mentioned above are all TV series for free.

Their common feature is that they basically tend to be relaxed and happy, making people very comfortable to watch.

This is also in line with the tastes of the group of housewives who watch wireless TV stations. Such a relaxed and pleasant TV series can also attract them to paid cable TV stations.

Although housewives are unwilling to spend money recklessly, and sometimes they are very frugal, they are still very quick to take out their credit cards and swipe their cards when they find something they like.

Anyway, Americans spend a lot on cable television.

According to statistics in 2018, the average American family’s subscription fee for cable TV stations exceeds $100 per year. ——HBO is 99 US dollars a year, and the rest will cost 30 to 50 US dollars a year no matter how cheap.

This huge crowd of genuine packers is really the envy of countless countries all over the world.

Except for Japan, there should be no country with such a high proportion of subscriptions.

But it's a pity that Japan doesn't have such a culture of high-quality TV dramas on cable TV... Ahem, everyone knows what movies and TV shows Japanese people like most.

Gossip less.

The next four TV series are all classics in paid TV series.

The third TV series is the town drama of U.SANETWORK, a basic cable channel under N.BC News Network-"Wonderful Cop and Thief Detective".

U.SA's TV dramas have always been famous for their plump characters.

In fact, the origin of this is in "Wonderful Police and Thief Detective".

One is a robber, the other is a policeman. The two people who were supposed to be enemies have united together and worked hard to solve the case.

Such a story setting will naturally attract many audiences.

Although the general TV screenwriters will set one of these two characters as a woman and the other as a man, so that they can have a little subtle emotion while solving the case.

This will make it more topical.

But the screenwriters of this company didn't agree, they made the two protagonists both male.

They are all experts in their respective fields, all have unique skills, and they all appreciate each other.

Even if they will show off some of their abilities, the screenwriters make them very gentle, and they will not appear inexplicably, making you unable to understand.

For anything that is not within the scope of people's common sense understanding, the screenwriter will ask them to explain the ins and outs clearly, which makes it very clear and comfortable for everyone to see.

So the two of them are very well carved in terms of image, and the feeling that they are not enemies but not getting together is so obvious that the audience once shouted "together", which made the screenwriter of the production company dumbfounded.

As a result, "Beautiful Cop and Thief Detective" has become the most watched TV series in U.SA, and has led the trend of cooperation between police and thieves.

In the coming years, there will be at least dozens of TV dramas imitating their model, and almost all of them will be successful.

From this we can also see the charm of "Wonderful Cop and Thief Detective".

The fourth TV show, one of AMC's blockbuster dramas on the basic cable channel, "Mad Men."

This is a story about the career and life of a group of ideal advertisers in the 1960s.

The number of viewers and subscribers of "Mad Men" has also exceeded 12 million, but the most powerful thing is its word of mouth. But it is definitely not something that can be obtained by any popular TV series.

This must have a rich connotation and the meaning expressed before it can be obtained.

Moreover, it must be in line with the actual situation at the time, and it must have strong professional knowledge and ideas, which are more important things.

The script of "Mad Men" written by Yin Jun is actually very unqualified.

Because he didn't know anything about advertising except for watching some plots and plots.

But it doesn't matter!

It is only 1986 now, and it is only 20 years since the 1960s. Most of the people who worked in the advertising industry in that era are still alive, and many of them are even at the top.

Yin Jun spent a lot of money to let them restore that era and restore the various situations at that time, and then find the group of people who can write the best stories in the advertising industry to help write some stories, wouldn't that be good?

A teenager who can't do anything else, his appreciation ability is the best in the world.

As long as the stories they write can make Yin Jun feel good, then they can pass the test, and they will also be loved by the audience.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that the current computer special effects technology is not good enough, Yin Jun's choice this time should be another TV series from AMC - "The Walking Dead".

This crazily popular zombie-themed TV series broke the records of almost all TV series of the same type as soon as it came out.

And with such a heavy taste TV series, it can actually reach an average of 18 million viewers and subscribers, which is simply amazing!

You know, the programs of these cable TV stations that start charging, everyone who watches pays, is very different from those TV dramas that don't pay for the number of viewers!

It's a pity that the technology can't reach it now, and because of the theme that has just started broadcasting, it can't be too dark, so "Mad Men" is still more suitable than "The Walking Dead".

Of course, there is another reason.

It's just the 80s before the cable TV wars.

Those viewers who subscribe to cable TV programs have not experienced so many classic TV dramas, so they are easy to deceive.

"Mad Men" and the previous "Grey's Anatomy" and "The Big Bang Theory" are very suitable for those who are not used to watching.

If you want to break into the field of cable TV after 20 years, you will come up with some tough moves.

For example, "The Walking Dead", and even "Desperate X", "Ice Storm" and so on, can be accessed directly.

The so-called non-madness does not survive, that is to say.

Of course, Yin Jun prefers this era, because it allows him to lay out his plans slowly and walk step by step calmly.

Taking a slanted sword has never been his style.

Of course, it doesn't mean that all of them have to be joyous plots, but all of them are inspirational TV dramas.

Compared with the previous four TV series, the TV series given by Yin Jun later seem a little darker.

For example, Netflix's elaborate work "Women's Prison".

What Netflix really made a name for itself was "House of Cards" starring Oscar-winning actor Spacey, but their impressive production also included "Orange Is the New Black".

"Women's Prison" was broadcast almost half a year later than "House of Cards", and it can basically be regarded as the successor of "House of Cards", but its first episode exceeded the number of viewers of "House of Cards" at that time , making people exclaim impossible.

After all, compared to the big production of "House of Cards", "Orange is the New Black Prison" is simply a small production.

Even if it's a TV series based on a best-selling book, it doesn't look as good as "House of Cards" in any way.

Of course, the fact is that it develops like this. Although "Orange Is The Prison" is amazing, "House Of Cards" keeps climbing, keeps rising, and finally throws off "Orange Is The Prison" and becomes the king of Netflix .

But we can't say that "Women's Prison" is not good.

Because its number of viewers is second only to "House of Cards", and the production cost is much lower than that of "House of Cards", and the actors are definitely not big names, basically it is a model of small and big.

This TV series is somewhat similar to "Single Poison Mom", but it is not so traditional, and it involves a lot of crimes.

But its success still tells stories about warmth, friendship, conflict, reflection, etc., but it just moves the location of the story to the prison.

In fact, it is also possible to change it a little bit and change it to being in school.

But then there would be no such gimmick as prison, and it would not be so unscrupulous—some jokes and stories cannot happen in school.

These heroines are definitely not good girls. They happen to be the favorite of Americans. They are full of rebellion. Although they are a little sinful, they are not the heinous kind of people.

"Women's Prison" discusses various problems in American society as a whole.

Starting from the experience of these female prisoners, I started to discuss some things and phenomena in the society, which happened to cater to the condemnation of unfairness by the little people.

In such a story, there must be sadness and tears in the laughter, but it is more flesh and blood.

Americans have never liked good boys and good girls. They like heroes with a little flaw or mistakes.

You can see this in their comic book hero stories.

Iron Man is a playboy. He produces weapons that kill people.

Every time the Hulk fights, there will be ruins, and countless people will be homeless.

Black Widow is not a good person, she has killed countless people.

That is to say, Batman never kills, but this is definitely a very small number of individuals.

Therefore, the success of "Orange is the New Black" is also in line with the entire culture of the United States. If it is divorced from reality, then "Orange is the New Black" will not be successful.

The last TV series is the finale.

It is "Six Feet Under", which is known as "If there is only one TV series to watch in the world, then watch it".

HBO has many classics, such as "Band of Brothers", "Boardwalk Empire", "Game of Thrones" and so on.

But no matter how many classic TV series they have, "Six Feet Under" must be ranked in the top three, and it cannot be shaken at all.

"Under Six Feet" is not a major production of special effects, let alone a brain-burning drama.

Instead, its plot is very simple, a story that takes place in a funeral home.

This is a family-owned funeral home. After the death of their father, several children worked together to run it while maintaining the unity of the family, and a series of events took place with this as the main center.

It touches on "death" that ordinary people don't even want to think about.

Death is inevitable in life, but no one wants to die.

"Six Feet Under" tells the story about death, the thinking about life, and what we should do in order to live up to this life story.

It is somewhat similar to the Japanese movie "The Undertaker", but what it conveys is another similar but somewhat different outlook on life.

It stands to reason that such a story would not be liked by many people, but it is not the case.

This magical drama, which has never been lower than 9.5 points on various rating lists, has amazed everyone since it came out, and each episode has aroused huge repercussions, which has completely surpassed the scope of an ordinary TV series.

It also won 46 awards, including Emmys and Golden Globes, and received numerous critical acclaim.

After broadcasting for many years, its videotape and DVD revenue has always been among the top HBO companies, and it is definitely a classic TV series that has both fame and fortune!

It is a waste for Yin Jun not to take out such a big TV series as his pioneering work!

Carefully watch the six TV dramas that Yin Jun presented.

One is about doctors in the workplace, one is about the life stories of geniuses, one is about advertisements in the workplace, one is about police and robbers in the workplace solving crimes, one is about criminal prisons, and one is about death and hope.

Each of the six TV dramas has its own emphasis and differences, but they are all super blockbuster works.

It is broadcast on six days a week, allowing American audiences to see the classics among the classics every day. Are you still worried that cable TV stations can't do it?

If this cannot be done, it can only be said that the people of the United States are blind!

But such a result will definitely not appear.

Classics are classics and will not be affected by the changes of the times. They can shine brightly in any era!

...

(Tsk tsk, I don’t know if I haven’t checked the information for the past two days, but the market value of such an Internet company as Netflix actually exceeds that of Disney’s father, it’s crazy!)
