At 7 o'clock in the evening, Penguin Video released the first issue of "Run, Brother".
Only online platforms dare to broadcast variety shows at this time.
At this time, all TV stations were broadcasting Xia TV's "Seven O'Clock News".
The choice of Penguin Video at seven o'clock is naturally purposeful, because young people hardly watch the news.
Even if I read the news, I usually go to Guan Ke to eat melon and learn some gossip.
All in all, there are more viewers this time than before.
However, at the beginning, no one knew the quality of Running Man. Most of the people attracted were regular guests and fans of Song Yu.
Song Yu didn't open the barrage and read it himself first.
In the first phase, there will be seven permanent guests, plus three flying guests.
Except for Star Dream Era, among the remaining six, the biggest one is Shen He, a top first-line comedian.
He was invited over to act as Chen He's character.
The captain is played by another first-line actor, Rao Zhan.
However, his front line is slightly watery and belongs to the terminal existence.
The remaining four are all second-tier actors and there are no singers.
Song Yu's plan was that it would be enough for the singer to have Suni as a permanent resident. In this case, no one would steal her limelight.
Occasionally singing or something, I will always attract some fans.
Except for the four people from Star Dream Era, these actors are all from the Penguin series.
As a giant, Penguin has no dedicated artists, but it has invested in many entertainment companies and owns their shares.
If Xingdong Entertainment goes public, it will probably also be targeted.
Song Yu did not participate in the recording of Running Man, leaving all the responsibility to Penguin.
And the results did not disappoint him.
Penguin has hired the best variety show director and team.
The quality of the first issue is extremely good, almost a replica of the original.
And some of the results are even better because of Shen He.
The performances of the four people in Star Dream Era each have their own merits.
Suni is the one with the most sense of variety show, and her character is very popular.
Xi Wei plays her true self, and most of the time she looks very naive.
But combined with her extraordinary appearance, this kind of naivety becomes down-to-earth and makes people like her.
Tan Yu was the one who surprised Song Yu the most.
She is like a last resort, always able to say strange and reasonable sayings, which doubles the effect of the variety show.
Zhao Yan, relatively speaking, is relatively quiet, which is in contrast to her performance on stage.
And because of her petite figure, many fans are aware of her cute side.
After Song Yu watched the video, he clicked into the comment area to see the audience's feedback.
More than an hour has passed by now, and the comment area is already very busy.
"Because Brother Yu is the planner, I came here to try it out. I didn't expect that I couldn't stop after seeing it."
"Brother Yu, the eternal god, I suggest you do more variety shows when you are not singing."
"I feel that "Run, Brother" can be regarded as a leader in outdoor variety shows."
"The guest lineup is worse than that of "24 Hours", but the content is far superior."
"Shen He is still full of smiles. Standing there, he can make people laugh."
"Rao Zhan is not bad either. I didn't expect his English to be so poor. He's so tired of cutting trees that he laughs to death."
"Zhou Gu has really practiced, tearing up famous brands one on three, and he doesn't feel tired at all."
"Tearing off famous brands, I don't know how Song Yu came up with this game. It's so exciting that it made me sweat."
"I want to praise Suni. Her personality is so much like a daughter's that she can't stand her when she's naughty or coquettish."
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"Xi Wei, I always thought she was kind of aloof, akin to a princess, but I didn't expect her to be a stupid beauty."
Song Yu kept scrolling down, but he didn't find any negative reviews.
If nothing else goes wrong, Running Man will be a great success.
He opened the flash chat and shared the video link with the artist group.
"Well done to you four."
"hey-hey."
Suni immediately came out and said, "Thank you, Teacher Song, for the compliment!"
"I just finished watching it. Judging from my many years of experience, this variety show will definitely be popular." Bai Xiang said.
"That's right, it's so beautiful, and it's hard to tolerate it without fire." Zhou Jie agreed.
"Envy." Sang Yingying sent an emoticon.
Because "Chinatown" and "The Road to Misfortune" are both movies with male protagonists, she can only play supporting roles for the time being.
Only when these two TV series are completed can I have the opportunity to be the heroine.
"Don't be envious, you all have the opportunity to play as a running man." Song Yu said.
Running Man takes at least several years to run. It is not easy to be a resident artist under Star Entertainment, but it is easy to become a flying guest.
Even if Song Yu didn't mention someone as famous as Bai Xiang, Penguin would also invite him.
Song Yu still wanted to chat, but his phone vibrated.
"Mr. Mu? What's the matter with calling me so late?"
"The first episode has already had 50 million views. According to this increase, there should be no problem if it exceeds 100 million on the first day!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Mu." Song Yu smiled.
"What you said is just a matter of course."
Mu Ju's tone was full of gratitude, "Without Director Song, there would be no success today. I should thank you."
"Where are you talking?" Song Yu said, "You use money to do things."
"Director Song is very open. After the first season of Running Man is over, Penguin Video will definitely express something."
"Then thank you, Mr. Mu." Naturally, Song Yu would not refuse.
While the two were living in harmony, the atmosphere in New World Video was a bit bad.
"In less than two hours, 50 million plays."
He Wang sighed and said, "Mr. Fu, we are in trouble this time."
Fu Ling didn't speak. She frowned and was surprised.
Song Yu is a layman.
Although there is the success of "The King of Masked Singer", it is a music variety show after all, which is relatively simple and relies on the creativity of masking.
But Running Man is different.
She has already watched the first issue. The plot design and brand-new games in it make it difficult for even a variety show veteran to do this.
Especially tearing off famous brands.
Fu Ling dares to say that this game will definitely become a famous scene in variety shows.
And it’s not easy to copy.
Because it's so unique.
The other party is a penguin. If you dare to copy it, it will dare to litigate with you.
"Is there any way to deal with it?" Fu Ling asked.
"What makes a variety show more exciting is nothing more than guests and plot design."
He Wang said with a solemn expression, "Our regular guests on "24 Hours of High Energy" are all top-tier, and the price goes up higher. As for the plot design, it's not easy to surpass Running Man."
Fu Ling knocked on the table with his hand, feeling irritable.
Who would have thought that when Song Yu came on, he would be the star of the entire variety show.
With only two A-listers and eight B-listers, they can defeat "24" which is all A-list stars.
"We can't sit back and wait for death. Let the screenwriters think of more ideas and invite a popular celebrity to try it."
Fu Ling took a breath and said, "Maybe the first episode of Running Man will be exciting. In that case, we don't need to do anything."
No matter how lucky the two were, Running Man's results on the first day really shocked everyone's attention.
In one night, it had 120 million views, breaking this year's record and beating "Twenty Hours of High Energy".
It can be said that he is one of the best in the online variety show.
But even if other variety shows are included, only "The Masked Singer" can beat it.
hotel.
Song Yu yawned.
Because tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day Party, Xingmeng Times went to Daxia Satellite TV early in the morning for rehearsal.
Nothing happened to him.
"Did Xu Ke not read the script last night?"
Song Yu scratched his messy hair.
With the quality of "The Matrix", there is no reason to remain indifferent.
There are no similar science fiction movies in this world.
For someone who is new to "The Matrix", it must be very shocking.
To this day, many of the jokes are still circulating.
Like the blue pill.
Moreover, "The Matrix" is not just a fun movie, the depth of its story is equally interesting.
Discussion of artificial intelligence, the choice between the real world and the virtual world, etc.
Putting aside the fourth part, the first three parts are perfect.
Song Yu had breakfast and didn't care about Xu Ke anymore. He had other things to do today.
Shoot commercials.
A national-level mineral water is called Hahaha, or Sanha for short.
Sanha's headquarters is in Hengfeng City, not far from Beilong City.
The most famous thing in this city is Hengfeng Film and Television City.
The high-speed train that Song Yu took.
The journey is only seven minutes, so it’s a quick trip.
On the contrary, it took nearly an hour to go to the Sanha headquarters.
Because it is next to a mountainous area, it is relatively remote.
It’s not that there aren’t office buildings in urban areas, it’s because they are needed for advertising.
In order to show that the source of Sanha mineral water is pure and natural.
Song Yu is the only protagonist in the advertisement, and the rest are staff of Sanha Group.
His role is that of a visitor.
First, I walked around various places, finally drank a sip of mountain spring and a bottle of mineral water, and said a few contrasting advertising slogans and that was it.
While Song Yu was filming the commercial, Xu Ke, who was at home, finally remembered the script.
After returning home last night, he was delayed by something. After finishing it, it was already eleven o'clock, so he went straight to bed.
After dinner this morning, I had some free time.
Because Xu Ke is used to reading on paper, he first printed out the script on his mobile phone.
"There are quite a few."
He was a little surprised.
But he soon understood why.
"It's actually three movies: upper, middle and lower."
Xu Ke shook his head and said with a smile, "I don't know if Song Yu should be confident or arrogant?"
Movies, especially series of movies, must have amazing box office support.
If the first one fails on the street, the next few will most likely be cut in half.
Xu Ke opened the script and entered the state.
Regardless of Song Yu's approach, since he got the script, his attitude cannot be perfunctory.
The script and plot are the same as the original version, but the name and other things have been modified.
For example, the male protagonist Neo was changed to Li Ao, which is more in line with Daxia's habits.
If you have seen the original version, you will naturally feel awkward, but no one in this world has seen it, so you won’t think there is anything wrong with it.
The plot at the beginning was relatively dull.
It tells the story of the male protagonist's life as a cyber hacker, until one day he noticed something was wrong in the real world, so he started an investigation.
When he met Morpheus, the captain of the human resistance organization, the truth of the world was revealed.
It turns out that he lives in a virtual world.
When Xu Ke saw this, his eyes lit up.
interesting.
After that it's the classic blue pill and red pill.
Take the blue pill and continue living in the beautiful virtual world. Take the red pill and you will return to the real world.
"sharp!"
Xu Ke looked amazed.
This choice is undoubtedly difficult for the male protagonist, but it is also a sublimation.
And it’s very practical.
The rapid development of the Internet has also caused various discussions in the world.
Many people are addicted to the Internet and gradually ignore reality.
Especially in games, it is a protracted debate.
"For now, the plot and setting are quite good. As long as it doesn't collapse later, it will definitely be a good-quality science fiction film."
Xu Ke continued to read.
Soon I realized that I had said this too soon.
Not only does it not collapse, it is simply incredible and wonderful.
Xu Ke let out a long sigh of relief.
Four hours of reading did not feel too long, on the contrary, it felt too short.
He really wanted to keep watching.
"The cost of this show will be quite high."
Xu Ke looked at the words "The Matrix" on the script, was silent for a moment, and then said, "If I can't be the director, I will regret it for the rest of my life."
But he might not be able to handle it on his own, so he would have to call on Lu Yihai.
This movie is not only full of special effects, but also has quite a few fighting scenes.
If you want to achieve the best results, you need Lu Yihai.
"This script is a bit tailor-made for me and Lu Yihai."
Xu Ke laughed and said, "It's hard not to doubt that he did it on purpose, but this is a trick for me."
He took out his cell phone and dialed Song Yu's number.
Not long after, it was connected.
"I've read the script and it's very exciting."
"It seems that Director Xu has an idea." Song Yu smiled immediately after hearing this.
"Of course." Xu Ke said, "Since this kind of science fiction film that has the potential to become a classic is in my hands, I must not miss it."
"I gave Director Xu three movies, each with a large investment."
Song Yu paused and said, "Xingdong Entertainment can invest one-third and leave the rest to Penguin."
"No problem. I will contact Penguin Film and Television, and we will discuss it among the three parties."
Logically speaking, it should be Xingdong Entertainment, but obviously Xu Ke couldn't sit still.
Naturally, Song Yu would not refuse.
After hanging up, Xu Ke immediately called Penguin Film and Television CEO Sun Yuan.
As directors of the Penguin series, Xu Ke and Lu Yihai have made many films for Penguin.
There were profits and losses, but overall it was a profit.
In addition, "Excalibur" has just been released and made a huge profit of 400 million. The relationship between the two is good.
After listening to Xu Ke's explanation, Sun Yuan expressed that he wanted to conduct a script evaluation first.
As a large company, it has a dedicated evaluation team.
It is impossible for a script without value to pass the test.
Although Sun Yuan believed in Xu Ke's vision, he would not blindly trust him.
After receiving the script, a meeting was held immediately.
A total of twenty-seven people participated.
The identities are different.
Some are professional screenwriters and former film critics, while others are ordinary market researchers and evaluators.
In short, taken together, there is about two-thirds accuracy.
The remaining one-third is due to off-site factors. After all, there is no guarantee of such things as accidents.
No matter how good the script is, it will turn into a bad movie.
It would be even more depressing if I encountered an actor who was engaged in pornography, gambling and drug addiction again.
Three hours later, Sun Yuan received the score.
The full score is one hundred points, remove the highest and lowest scores, and take the average score.
"98 points?"
Sun Yuan couldn't believe his eyes.
This score is ridiculously high.
The twenty-seven people seemed to be like moles, not one of them had a low score.
After being surprised, he was ecstatic.
This is such a masterpiece! This chapter has been completed!
