Chapter 128 Single-handedly taking Weibo out of the circle
"My Love from the Star" debuted at number 2, truly shocking everyone in the industry.
You must know that with the changes in entertainment methods in recent years, competition among various satellite TV stations has become fierce, and TV series and variety shows have emerged one after another. It is increasingly rare that one company is the dominant one like in the early years.
Another key reason is that TV series ratings methods are constantly being updated and iterated.
The previous method was a very general calculation method, and the data content was very high. At first, it was only tens of percent. Even in the past few years, there were only a few dramas with 5% ratings in a year.
But starting in the past two years, the ratings statistics method has become more scientific and accurate, which has also caused the ratings of TV series to plummet.
In the past, when the ratings exceeded 1, it was just that, but now it is a very remarkable achievement.
Let alone surpassing 2, except for CCTV, which is in a special situation, there are only two TV dramas that have surpassed 2 this year.
And "My Love from the Star" is the third one!
What's even more impressive is that "My Love from the Star" debuted with a score of 2.0, and its reputation is very good, which indicates that this drama has a lot of room for improvement, and may break through to 2.5, or even break 3.
Blue Whale Company's phone immediately received inquiries from many TV stations, wanting to purchase the second and third round broadcast rights.
Several video websites such as Youku, Tudou, and LeTV have also increased their contacts and want to obtain the rights to broadcast online.
The company was full of joy, but Wei Yang, who had a certain premonition, was one of the few who remained calm.
"Don't rush for the second and third rounds. There is still enough time for the first round in Jiangsu Province and Hunan Province. Make contact first, don't negotiate the price, wait until the fermentation is enough, and then start. Lao Xia, I leave this matter to you,"
"We can negotiate for the webcasting rights, but it's best to sell them exclusively. Director Wang, I'll give you a bottom line, no less than 15 million, and we can negotiate for 20 million."
"Don't be afraid that they won't agree. The market situation is different now. Youku and Tudou are holding back their listings and are willing to spend money. Let them see how popular we are online and how we can make a fortune by being so popular on Soso."
"Inform the public relations companies and media I have contacted to allocate all the remaining publicity budgets. I will discuss with several investors and allocate another 5 million budget to give me exposure and give this drama to me.
The more heat you use, the more heat you stir-fry.”
"Tell Fan's studio that the opportunity has come and ask her to seize it and not hold back."
"Lao Lei, I can relax about my endorsements and business, but I have to pay attention to the selection. It's better to have less than to overdo it."
"..."
Wei Yang arranged the work. He was busy when the TV series was not popular, and even busier after the TV series became popular.
However, the busy work now is all about harvesting and maximizing subsequent benefits, and everyone is full of energy.
Boss Wei also understood that enthusiasm alone was useless, so he gave Tianzao at the end of the meeting and announced it in front of the entire company.
"Everyone works hard. During the Spring Festival holiday, everyone will receive an additional month's salary, and those who make outstanding contributions will receive two months' salary. There will also be performance bonuses."
"Long live the boss!"
"Mr. Wei, I love you!"
The already happy staff became even happier. Wei Yang himself was also very satisfied. It didn't matter if he spent some money. As his work efficiency increased, he would earn more.
He was busy until almost 9 o'clock in the evening. Wei Yang had not gotten off work yet. He was checking the endorsement invitations reported by Lei Chun when he suddenly heard a knock in the office.
"Come in."
Wei Yang, who thought it was secretary Hu Ya, didn't even raise his head: "Let Director Lei come over tomorrow morning. Also, please go back and sort out the interview notices. I've marked them all."
"knew."
Hu Ya responded and reminded: "Mr. Wei, Sister Ying is here."
Wei Yang looked up and saw Xiao Zhao carrying two thermos buckets and looking at him with a smile.
"Why are you here?"
"Send you some midnight snack."
"How do you know I haven't eaten?"
Wei Yang looked at Hu Ya, who shook her head. As a secretary, the most important thing is to be strict with her mouth. Even if she knew about the relationship between Xiao Zhao and Wei Yang, she would not spit out easily.
"Don't worry, I didn't call Hu Ya."
Xiao Zhao put the thermos bucket on the table: "I brought it here because I was afraid you wouldn't eat it. If you eat it, I'll eat it myself."
"Too worried."
Wei Yang smiled and looked at Hu Ya: "If your sister Ying asks you from now on, honestly speaking, there are no outsiders."
Hu Ya nodded obediently: "I understand."
It doesn’t matter if there are no outsiders to talk about. Others don’t need to be told honestly...
"It just so happens that your movie sister is here. Write down what I just said and get off work first."
Xiao Zhao is here. If Wei Yang gets off work soon and has someone to help him when he works overtime, there is no need to let his secretary work.
After sending Hu Ya away, Wei Yang wiped his hands with a wet tissue and sat down on the sofa.
"Cook something delicious."
"Dumplings and side dishes."
Xiao Zhao opened the thermos bucket. One contained dumplings made by himself, and the other contained two stir-fried dishes.
"Huh? Did my mother secretly teach you this taste? It has a bit of charm."
Xiao Zhao was a little proud: "That's right, I became a disciple of Auntie and learned some unique skills."
Wei Yang was curious: "What's the trick?"
"Auntie told me that the meat dumplings you like to eat are just put celery, radish and meat together. There are more vegetables and less meat, plus pepper noodles, thirteen spices and soy sauce..."
Wei Yang understood that when he was a child, dumplings were not like today, where anyone could eat them and only eat them during the New Year and holidays.
When I was a child, my family was not rich, and my grandma was in charge of cooking and was reluctant to put meat in it. Later, her mother and aunt were also deeply influenced by her mother-in-law/mom. Even if the family had some savings later, they would still make dumplings like this.
Wei Yang has been accustomed to eating this kind of dumplings since he was a child. Whether they taste good or not is put aside, but he does have feelings for them.
"Eat quickly, don't let it get cold."
Wei Yang stuffed a dumpling, took a few more bites of food, and sat comfortably sideways on the sofa.
"The food cooked at home is more practical than the food taken out."
Xiao Zhao picked up some food for him and said enthusiastically: "If you want to eat, I will bring you food every day from now on."
"That's not troublesome enough."
Wei Yang was eating dumplings: "You haven't announced anything these days. Didn't you say you wanted to take the driver's license test? How's it going?"
"It's okay. The coach said that if everything goes well, I can get the certificate before the Spring Festival."
"That's good. I'll get you a car later to drive home for the New Year and show off to your parents."
"Farewell, I don't dare."
Xiao Zhao waved her hands repeatedly. She didn't even know the side parking direction yet, so how could she dare to think about driving back to the capital from the devil's capital?
After eating, Wei Yang continued to be busy with work. Xiao Zhao packed up his things, poured him a glass of water, and sat across from him, holding his face and looking at Wei Yang.
Wei Yang felt a little uncomfortable: "What are you looking at me for?"
Xiao Zhao transformed into a little fan girl and said happily: "Handsome, eye-catching."
"The little girl is very discerning, but if you look at me like this, I won't be able to work."
Wei Yang gave her his laptop and found some headphones: "Play by yourself first, and then leave when you're done."
Xiao Zhao reluctantly returned to the sofa with his computer, crossed his legs and logged into Weibo first.
She is not well-known now and has very few followers on Weibo, which has just exceeded four digits.
She even has so many fans because when she first joined Blue Whale, Wei Yang officially expressed her welcome, @ her, and occasionally interacted with her in the comment area, so she has four figures of fans.
The number of her Weibo channels is similar to that of Damimi, which is more similar to a circle of friends, but the frequency is more frequent, maybe one post every day or two.
Today she just posted a Weibo about how difficult it is to learn to drive. Almost no one left any comments, so she just browsed other people's Weibo.
The first stop is naturally Wei Yang. Today Wei Yang also posted a Weibo post, which is the good news that "My Love from the Star" premiered at number 2. There are many likes, comments, and reposts below.
Xiao Zhao clicked on it and took a look. They were all congratulations or rainbow farts from fans. There were also a large number of new fans who came to pay attention after watching "My Love from the Star".
Aiwujiwu, Xiao Zhao saw these people praising Wei Yang as if they were praising himself, so he clicked like it.
However, those messages such as "calling husband", "turning white when showing love", "crying about having a baby", etc. were all bypassed, and some excessive ones were even reported.
While watching the excitement, I suddenly discovered that there was an extra post on Wei Yang's Weibo. It was not posted by him himself, but by the official Weibo post.
[The first Weibo follower exceeded 1 million]
Xiao Zhao looked at Wei Yang in surprise and reported the good news: "You have more than 1 million followers on Weibo."
Wei Yang, who was looking down at the documents, was stunned: "So fast?"
Putting down the file for the time being, Wei Yang came over and looked down at the screen, then flipped through the following list, and was greatly surprised.
"It was pulled so fast."
Weibo has just been launched for a few months and its influence has not yet increased. Most celebrity fans have less than 500,000 followers. People with more than 500,000 followers can count them on one hand.
Wei Yang's previous fan base was about 700,000, temporarily ranking first in the rankings, but now it has exceeded one million, obviously because of the popularity of "My Love from the Star".
This can also be verified from Fan Xiaopang’s Weibo fan base.
The latter's number of fans has also suddenly increased sharply in the past two days, surpassing Yao Dazui. Now the number of fans has suddenly reached 950,000, and one million fans are just around the corner.
Moreover, Yao Dazui, who ranked third at this time, only had over 600,000 fans, and Zhao, who ranked fourth, had more than 500,000 fans.
This number of fans is so far behind the top two Wei and Fan that it is almost a cliff. This also shows that this is not an increase in Weibo's overall number of fans, but is indeed due to the dividends of "My Love from the Star".
"It's interesting."
Wei Yang smiled, went out to ask for a camera from employees who had not yet got off work, adjusted the file, found a good angle, and took a classic picture of overtime work in the circle of friends along with the moon outside the desk and office window, and then sent it to WeChat
Bo.
[I am working overtime in the company. I suddenly heard the good news. I am sincerely frightened. I also thank everyone for your support and love]
[Let’s get a wave of benefits for fans who have exceeded one million, 100 signed books or signed photos will be drawn and distributed in the comment area, first come first served, I hope everyone will not dislike it]
After posting on Weibo, the comment area instantly exceeded 500 comments, with various comments congratulating and begging for winning. Wei Yang experienced the feeling of being "top-notch".
Xiao Zhao followed and looked around, feeling happy and smacking his lips: "I don't think your 100 is enough."
Wei Yang also felt that he said too little, but he also thought of a way to deal with it: "Then 2 million and another 100 copies will be drawn. I remember that the company has stock."
The next day, as soon as Wei Yang woke up, Xiao Zhao held up his cell phone to him with a weird look on his face.
"You'd better call the magazine to place an order. I'm afraid you won't have enough inventory by then."
Wei Yang rubbed his eyes and found that in just one night, his Weibo followers had approached 1.3 million.
If this continues, let alone 2 million, 3 million is just a matter of time.
When Wei Yang came back to his senses, the first thing he did was not to place an order, but to regret it.
“Damn it, Weibo’s advertising fees are going to be less!”
This volume of fan growth is definitely not something that Weibo's existing user base can achieve, but is a result of attracting drama fans from external platforms after "My Love from the Star" became popular.
It can be said that Wei Yang single-handedly brought Weibo, which had just been launched, out of the circle and added a large number of new users.
Wei Yang can believe that the people on Sina are almost laughing their faces off now. This advertisement is so worth it...
