Chapter 93 Threatened? (The First One!)

Saturday, July 29th.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, after the broadcast of "Bao Qingtian" ended today, most of the audience left the TV channel on Jiayi TV.

Many people are very interested in the "Wulin Gaiden" that has been hyped today.

The fact that it was created by the screenwriter of "Bao Qingtian" and the cameo of Mr. Bao in the first episode is enough for these loyal fans to take a look.

After the theme song "Long Time No See" with some rap nature, the first episode began to air.

Unsurprisingly, the first arresting head made the audience laugh when he tried his best to escape the alcohol debt.

With the appearance of the true face of the male and the female, and their "chivalry" being crusade, these misunderstandings directly caused many audiences to laugh and hurt their stomachs.

Jiashi has some channels of its own. Although it is not so authoritative, it can know some situations in advance.

Through their investigation, it was found that many families had a very good evaluation of "Wulin Gaiden".

On Sunday morning, Nielsen sent the data, and the audience rating of the first episode reached 43%, beating the "Happy Tonight" and Li's programs in the same period, making Liang Shuyi and the others smile.

If it has always been like this, then 5 million is really not a loss at all!

For this reason, Liang Shuyi also specially went to condolences to the crew of "Wulin Gaiden" and encouraged them to shoot well. Jiashi will not forget the heroes.

But on Monday morning, when Nielsen's data came in, people were a little bit incredulous.

The ratings of "Wulin Gaiden" plummeted to 22%, and it was cut in half!

what's going on?

In front of a group of supervisors, Liang Shuyi personally called Nielsen and confirmed that there was no error in the data, but there was silence in the conference room.

After hanging up the phone, Liang Shuyi felt a burning pain on her face!

5 million!

Spent a full 5 million!

Is this the result?

Ah Jun, you are so disappointing to me!

"I knew it!" Ling Xuhua said afterward. "Because the first episode had enough gimmicks and the friendly cameo of Bao Qingtian, who is popular all over Asia, the ratings were very high. But many people watched the first episode. One episode, when I look back on it, I think it's average, so they won't chase the next day! I'm afraid this 22% is not the worst case!"

"Not necessarily." Liu Tianci shook his head and said, "I have watched "Wulin Gaiden" several times in the past two days. Every time I watch it, I don't get bored, but find it quite interesting. I think it may be because of the style. Are you still a little uncomfortable? After two more days, after everyone feels its charm, the ratings will increase."

Liu Tianci, who participated in the negotiation, was still a little dissatisfied with Yin Jun's astronomical price of 8 million.

Although you are short of money, you have to take into account our operating pressure, right?

But when I heard Liang Shuyi talk about it right away, Yin Jun came over in person, lowered the price to 5 million, and was also in charge of the production of all TV series. This suddenly made Liu Tianci regain his appreciation for Yin Jun, thinking that Junzi really did. I'm not mistaken, can you give up your own 5 million interests in one breath, how can this be done by ordinary people?

Relying on this, the situation of "Wulin Biography" is not good for the time being, and Liu Tianci will also try his best to protect Yin Jun.

"It's like this TV series that the ratings of the first episode exploded, and the second episode jumped violently. We have seen it a lot before." Ye Yunxin said slowly: "Ciguan, to be honest, based on my experience, I think this is The times may be a little off... If we put our hope on 20% of the ratings, we won't be disappointed. But if we put it on 40%, I'm afraid we will be disappointed."

Shi Shaoming tapped on the table and shrugged: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. 20% of the production cost of 5 million and 120 episodes has barely passed. If word of mouth comes up later, maybe there will be more. Besides, Jun Before I did "Bao Qingtian", we spent 50,000 episodes to make TV series, how many of them hit the street? So why are you nervous?"

"You can't say that." Ling Xuhua said: "This is Yin Jun! The creator of "Bao Qingtian"! He has become like this now, doesn't it mean that a signboard of our Jiashi has fallen?"

"It's too early to say that." Liu Tianci frowned, "Yesterday's ratings for "Bao Qingtian" was 72%. This is called the fall of the brand? Isn't it normal for a screenwriter to have ups and downs?"

Ling Xuhua said, "His ups and downs don't matter, the key is that we are annoyed... Miss Liang, I would like to suggest that since the ratings of "Wulin Gaiden" are not up to expectations, can we discuss it with Yin Jun? Amend the contract?"

"What do you mean..." Liang Shuyi asked.

"5 million is too much, let's halve it!" Ling Xuhua said, "Actually, we all know that 5,000 yuan can make one episode, and 120 episodes is 600,000 yuan. We gave him a profit of nearly 2 million yuan, which is already very kind. , he should thank us."

"It's not right for you to say that." Liu Tianci said without thinking: "'Bao Qingtian' is a complete mess. Did Jun Zai come to you for an extra cent in dividends? In the first 108 episodes, the average price was less than 2,000. For one episode, did he take the opportunity to ask for a price increase? At that time, let alone 2,000, 5,000 for an episode, you have to grit your teeth, right?"

"But now, he has more than 5,000 episodes." Ling Xuhua retorted, "Let's talk about things, and we'll deal with each other. If we all just reminisce about the old love, how can the TV station go on? If there is a good TV series, just Should I lay on the credit book and eat for the rest of my life?"

"Okay, stop talking!"

Liang Shuyi stopped Liu Tianci, who wanted to refute, "It goes without saying about the price reduction, Jiashi can't do it. Ajun gives us face, and we also want to give him face. And it's only the second episode, we can wait a little longer. Look... today is Monday, so let's play it at 6 o'clock first and see the effect."

The 6 o'clock file actually refers to the one-hour broadcast schedule from 17:30 to 18:30, after which it is the news program.

Although "Wulin Gaiden" has not been favored, but the 6 o'clock file can still be tried.

Speaking of this, Liang Shuyi also sighed in her heart. Could it be that Yin Jun really failed this time?

...

The plummeting ratings of the second episode of "Wulin Gaiden" quickly spread throughout Hong Kong with the help of TVB and Li.

Reporters go to interview people on the streets.

It was found that more than 80% of the aunts were not very interested in "Wulin Gaiden", and felt that the jokes were very low-level, and they couldn't catch the laughs at all, and they were very awkward.

With this as a basis, Wireless was the first to sing "Wulin Gaiden" on its own TV station, ridiculed Jiashi for spending sky-high prices, and ended up buying a piece of junk to go back.

Li Di did not show weakness, and invited a lot of film critics to comment on the TV series, but almost none of them gave praise.

There is only one Huang Zhan who poured cold water before, but this time, he gave a cautious praise to "Wulin Gaiden". He felt that it was very intentional, and it was different from the current Xiangjiang TV series, and it was different from ordinary martial arts dramas.

However, Huang Zhan still felt that Yin Jun's innovation came too abruptly, it would be better if it was done step by step.

now...

It's not bad to be able to maintain a 20% audience rating.

The development of things is almost as expected.

Monday's 6 o'clock ratings were 21%, and Tuesday's 6 o'clock ratings were 18%.

After four episodes were broadcast, "Wulin Biography" not only did not stop the decline, but became more and more sluggish.

In stark contrast, "Detective Li Qi" by Wang Tianlin, a wireless gold medal producer, is also placed at 6 o'clock, and its ratings have risen step by step. It has exceeded 45%, and it has become the overlord of the same period again. .

For a time, more and more people were against badmouthing, and even the crew did not have any confidence.

You know, "Bao Qingtian" is only the third episode, which has attracted the attention of many people, and then switched to the 7 o'clock and 8 o'clock files, making rapid progress all the way, and became the TV drama with the highest ratings in Xiangjiang until it became popular at the end. All of Southeast Asia.

But "Wulin Gaiden" has aired the fourth episode, but it still has no good reviews. Everyone's comments are still very "vulgar", "naive", "self-entertaining"... It seems that there is no hope of success at all. !

You are starring in a TV drama that has no future. Do you want everyone to be able to work hard?

How can I shoot high-quality episodes?

At this time, Yin Jun quietly came to the scene, and when he saw everyone who was weak during the filming, he also felt "moral dissipated" in his heart.

Since the sale of "Wulin Biography", he has handed over the task of filming and directing to the trio of Zhong Zhiwen, Chen Xunqi and Zeng Zhiwei, who will shoot together.

Because they all have strength, but they are not famous, they can execute the script given by Yin Jun very well. After a few days of filming, Yin Jun thought it was very good, so he handed it all over to them.

Taking the three elites who will be in the director industry in the future, there is no problem in filming a "Wulin Gaiden" well.

But the morale was bad, and they didn't have many ideas.

For example, now, during the filming interval, Le Yiling is scolding a trick actor: "I asked you to pretend to be a drinker, but you really think you are a drinker? Eat and drink, do you want to steal the spotlight? I didn't eat. Have dinner?"

The dragon actor is a man in his thirties. He was scolded a little bit unbearably, and said directly: "The script is to tell us to eat, why can't we eat? Put chopsticks in your mouth and move it, it's fake, okay? Is it wrong for me to be serious about filming? Don't you look at what kind of crew you are! A broken crew is so domineering, I don't act anymore!"

"Tell me clearly, what's wrong with the crew?" Le Yiling became annoyed, "Did we lose your labor? Did we lose your red envelopes? All three meals are provided by our crew, and all you eat and drink is Ours, do you still have a conscience when you say this?"

"Conscience is a piece of shit. God knows when you will be cut off. I don't want to be in such a crew!" The dragon costume actor took off his costume jacket, threw it on the ground, and walked away.

The actors on the side looked different.

Le Yiling still maintained a fierce attitude, glanced at everyone, and said, "You people, if you want to go, go! Don't regret it in the future!!"

Saying that, she angrily came to the lounge where Yin Jun was.

"boom!"

When the door was slammed shut, Le Yiling, with her eyes closed, leaned against the door weakly.

The vicious Le Yiling just now was just holding on, and her psychological pressure was huge!
