Chapter 281 0280: I must ask for Nadong’s drama (1)
TV GG income has become the main source of income for various TV stations. Even in TV stations with relatively developed diversified operations, GG income accounts for more than 90% of the total operating income.
TV stations generally introduce some good programs, mainly variety shows and TV series, to attract viewers to watch. The more people watch, the higher the ratings will be. This not only attracts companies to play GG during that time period, but also increases GG fees. of capital.
Therefore, every year, TV stations prepare one or more annual dramas to show their competitiveness in the golden age.
Blueberry TV, apart from the Central Eighth TV, is a satellite TV that can compete with Mango TV back and forth.
Next year's Spring Festival gala and Spring Festival TV series are all being overshadowed by Mango TV. Even the popular variety show "Running Man" has seen its ratings continue to slip due to multiple replacements of MCs.
Issues such as reversing the decline in ratings and improving their advantage in the GG tender have become their top priorities.
Jiang Ge's "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been listed as a drama that they must watch since the news came out, and they have been actively communicating and showing sincerity.
5.85 million for a single episode and 198 million for the entire series, which is the highest price Blueberry TV has ever offered for a TV series in recent years.
However, the wrong party suggested that they watch the sample film first before discussing, and it was obvious that they were not satisfied.
But they have no choice. Dragon TV and Mango TV have both received high-quality annual dramas. They can't just give up the competition for the ratings of next summer's TV dramas.
Shen Qiang, director of the Program Marketing Center, immediately sent the samples to the conference room after receiving them.
He can make the final decision on a drama with over 200 million yuan, because once the reputation of the drama increases and the ratings are lower than expected, he will not only lose the money to purchase the drama, but it will also affect the GG bidding.
In the conference room, station director Zhong Yue, deputy director Zhou Qin, director of the Taiwan Affairs Office Xie Fei and director of the Taiwan Editorial Office Ling Yuqiang were all present.
It was the first time that a TV series could be watched by so many big shots from a first-tier TV station.
"Let's get started." Zhong Yue said.
"Okay." Shen Qiang rushed over to operate.
After a while, the TV in the conference room showed a picture.
The first thing that catches the eye is a very eye-catching [Sample] watermark, followed by the words ["Legend of Sword and Fairy" Episode 1], and then enters the title sequence.
In many cases, the first impression is very important. The title of the film is just the appearance of a TV series. "It's so good-looking that I don't want to skip the title", which is a high praise for a TV series.
A good TV series title can not only provide the audience with basic cast and crew information, but also firmly attract the audience, set the tone of the entire drama, and even play a role in publicity.
The leaders of Blueberry TV were obviously stunned by the title of "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
First of all, there is a mountain peak rising straight into the clouds in the picture, with a tall and tall man standing on it.
Then, the camera zoomed in, giving a frontal close-up of the man, Li Xiaoyao, played by Xu Chenyi.
He held a short dagger, smiled crookedly, and then threw the dagger to the east of the mountain peak, transforming into a big sword. He jumped east, stepped on the sword body, and flew with the sword.
In just a few seconds, you can see the handsomeness of the protagonist and the exquisite special effects.
"Hey yeah...hoo oh yeah...hey yeah...hey yeah..."
Suddenly, an ethereal and sad chant sounded, and the sound made people feel clear and melodious.
"Can't see the future or the past
Can't tell the difference between life and death
Doesn't take away joy or regret
get out of there
Dawn and crescent moon alternate
He traveled through centuries
just for me
When the peach petals are falling
That sad scenery
Long sleeves cannot wave away the flash of swords and shadows in a lifetime..."
The feelings of loneliness, wandering, and emptiness evoked by beating and singing all highlight the sad mood.
"Whether you are born or not proves it
Traces of existence
A greater life after the fire burns
Either kill or sing praises
The magnificence before destruction
Ye Fulang's deep eyes
Lonely waiting for the dawn. "
Amidst the beautiful singing, the wonderful emotional scenes, martial arts scenes, and special effects scenes in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are presented with fast editing shots.
Sha Po Lang is one of Zi Wei's fates, and it has three stars: Qi Sha, Po Jun, and Tan Lang. People with that kind of fate will wander throughout their lives, with ups and downs, but they have the heroic qualities to become famous in one fell swoop.
After listening to the opening song, the leaders of Blueberry TV immediately thought of the protagonist Li Xiaoyao in the play. "Xiaoyao" refers to a state of unrestrained freedom, which can refer to both the body's freedom from fetters and the mind. of freedom.
Before they could think deeply and reminisce about the song called "Slaying the Wolf", the plot began.
[In the Nanzhao Kingdom ten years ago, the national master worshiped the moon and falsely accused the witch queen of being a witch.
Her name is "Lin Qing'er", and she is actually a descendant of Nuwa. Her duty is to guard evildoers and protect the people.
Worshiping the moon not only deceived the people, but also forced the emperor to kill the queen.
The emperor couldn't bear to kill his cruel woman, but the bewitched people rushed to the demon-slaying platform, bound to kill the queen and slay the demon.
At that moment, Jiujianxian Yujian fell from the sky and saved Dong Qing'er.
In order to prove whether the Witch Queen was a witch or not, Bai Yue cast a spell and released the water monster in the water to attack the people. Lin Qing'er, who was imprisoned, had to take action and fight the water monster.
There was chaos in the palace, and Jiu Jianxian and Li Xiaoyao rescued Zhao Ling'er and her grandma. 】
The first episode only lasted four minutes, and it has already attracted the leaders of Blueberry TV.
Li Xiaoyao played by Xu Chenyi, Lin Qing'er played by Gu Yao, Jiujianxian played by Gong Li, and Baiyue played by Li Sheng are all excellent from appearance to acting skills.
And what’s more worth mentioning is the special effects. Whether it’s the water beast summoned by worshiping the moon and flooding the country of Nanzhao, or Lin Qinger’s image of a human head and a snake body, the special effects are comparable to Hollywood blockbusters. Every scene tells me whether this is a large-scale TV series with an investment of 500 million.
As the director of the program marketing center, Shen Qiang has read countless dramas. It was the first time he saw such a high-quality erotic drama. It was reasonable for the wrong party to ask for more money.
During the exciting moment when Lin Qing'er fought against the water monster, the scene from the opening of the film appeared in the camera.
It turns out that this is the scene of Li Xiaoyao fighting the Rakshasa hag in his dream.
Wow, after seeing the plot from ten years ago ending so hastily, Ling Yuqiang, the director of the station's editor-in-chief, frowned.
Ten years ago, Li Xiaoyao and Jiu Jianxian rescued Zhao Ling'er and grandma in Nanzhao Kingdom. How come Li Xiaoyao is no longer an ordinary citizen ten years later?
Are you sure that was the script written by Django? The plot has absolutely no logic at all.
But no one is talking or shutting up yet, and it’s only been fifteen minutes since the first episode.
[Li Xiaoyao and Aunt Li depended on each other, guarding an inn that was experiencing poor business.
Finally, guests came that day, three men in strange uniforms. They were so generous that they took over the entire inn. Aunt Li wanted to kill them off, so she gave Li Xiaoyao a few copper coins and asked him to prepare them. Food and drinks.
Due to Li Xiaoyao's naughty nature, he forgot about business and started fighting with others. Aunt Li dragged her back to the inn. After a quarrel, Aunt Li fainted on the ground.
Li Xiaoyao thought that he had made Aunt Li angry, so he went to find a doctor, but they could not cure Aunt Li.
At that time, the three well-off guests told Li Xiaoyao that there was a fairy island where fairies lived. They could go to the fairy island to get the fairy medicine to save Aunt Li.
Li Xiaoyao took two of their treasures, a sky-breaking hammer that could disarm the island's trap, and a pill that could prevent the island's miasma.
No.
He took the elixir, took the Sky-Breaking Hammer, and headed to Fairy Island. 】
