Chapter 81 "Crying! This is the secret love ceiling"
At the end of October, "Oranges Born in Huainan" premiered on the Modu Video Channel and Zhejiang Taishi TV Station.
Among them, the average ratings in the Magic City area in the first week were 4.1, with the highest ratings exceeding 6, and the market share stably exceeded 25%, ranking second in the same period.
The ratings statistics in Taiwan are not as detailed and accurate as those in Shanghai, but the data from all parties are also very eye-catching.
If this continues, although the performance may be slightly lower than that of "The Best of Us", it will definitely be a star.
Wei Yang and Xia Cong both breathed a sigh of relief.
Blue Whale's masterpiece "The Best of Us" has an average ratings of around 1.5. It is not only one of the most popular TV series in the beginning of 2008, but is also expected to overtake "The Prince of Tennis" and compete for the TV drama king this year on Shanghai TV.
If "The Best of Us" wins the annual ratings championship of first-line TV, Blue Whale will definitely show its face.
But showing up means showing up, and the most indispensable thing in the industry is this kind of short-lived company.
Many film and television companies have launched more popular works than "The Best of Us", but then they still disappeared and disappeared.
Therefore, whether a film and television company can launch hit projects is important, but whether it can stably output projects of a certain level is even more important.
A very embarrassing thing about Blue Whale is that the company initially worked on two projects. "The Best of Us" became a hit, but the other project failed.
This project is an anti-war drama co-produced by Blue Whale and another company. The other company takes the lead in the production, and Blue Whale invests money and participates in certain distribution.
As a result, the anti-war drama was not ideal for several rounds of pilot broadcasts on local channels. Not to mention it was a star, it was almost smashed and left to gather dust in the warehouse.
Later, Xia Cong tried his best to find channels, and he barely recovered part of his money, but Blue Whale also lost an estimated two to three million.
When Lao Zheng chose to give up Blue Whale, it was largely because he was not optimistic about the high risks of this industry.
In the past, it didn't matter if he had money, and he would lose the $18 million, but now he is having a hard time, plus he has no interest in this industry to begin with. It was purely for the convenience of showing off and picking up girls, so he decisively left.
This project actually offsets Blue Whale's brilliance in "The Best of Us" to a certain extent.
After all, one of the two projects became popular and the other failed. In the eyes of many people, Blue Whale is inevitably suspected of having more luck than strength.
Therefore, the results of "Orange in Huainan" are very critical.
If it can successfully achieve star status and achieve good results, it means that Blue Whale does have two skills, and investors will have more confidence in Blue Whale's new projects.
"It doesn't have to be compared to "The Best of Us". As long as "Orange in Huainan" can break 1 in ratings, the cards in our hand will be much easier to play."
Wei Yang kept stroking the red sandalwood turtle shell handle in his hand. It was a small gadget that he gave to Lao Zheng when he saw him off not long ago.
The turtle is one of the four spirits and has the meaning of longevity. It can also ward off evil spirits and bring wealth and good fortune. This is also Lao Zheng's blessing for Wei Yang, the little brother.
Wei Yang was under a lot of pressure during this period, so he would hold it in his hand and play with it as a way to relieve stress.
"Yeah, if that doesn't work, I'll go to Jieyi Jimodu TV to see if it can be launched as soon as possible."
Xia Cong took the initiative to suggest that Blue Whale was pressed for time and the sooner "Orange in Huainan" stars, it can buy some time for the company.
"Well, you go and get in touch. Besides, we don't have to wait passively. We can also come up with our own ideas to create momentum."
"No Money."
Didn't Xia Cong know that he wanted to build momentum for "Orange in Huainan", but Blue Whale's book funds were limited, so he didn't dare to do anything.
"You still have to spend it."
Wei Yang was more decisive than him: "I have an immature idea to see if I can achieve better publicity effects with as little money as possible."
…
Magic City, a certain restaurant
Several young men and women gathered together and happily clinked their wine glasses together.
"cheers!"
Everyone sat down, and Chen Chichi, the core of the group, laughed and sighed: "When the director called me, I thought he was joking. I never expected that the show would really become a hit."
Li Jinming next to him laughed heartily: "I went to several forums in Tianya, and many people are recommending our drama. Baidu has forums for Hu Yifei and Zeng Xiaoxian."
Lou Yixiao also echoed: "I went to see it and told them that I was Hu Yifei, but no one believed it."
"I don't believe it either."
Zhao Ji smiled: "But it's always a good thing. The director said that if it ferments a little longer, there might be a satellite TV station that comes to contact it."
When several people heard this, they looked a little excited.
As I said before, the drama "Love Apartment" was just an advertising drama from the very beginning. Even the creators didn't take it seriously and didn't expect it to become a hit.
In fact, the test results of "Love Apartment" were not very good, but I don't know who posted it online.
This relatively "novel and fashionable" way of living together and the funny plot and baggage quickly conquered a large number of young netizens.
Many netizens spontaneously became the favorites of "Love Apartment" and recommended it everywhere.
These days, online video copyright management is lax. It can almost be said that the vast majority of netizens have no awareness of relevant copyrights at all. The spirit of sharing on the Internet is above all else.
Several video websites also turn a blind eye and even add fuel to the fire behind the scenes.
After all, you have to spend money to buy genuine copyrights. It’s so fun to have sex for free. The website can’t show it publicly, so let the “netizen’s personal account” upload it spontaneously.
Under such an environment, "Love Apartment" appeared openly on several video websites such as Youku, Tudou, Sohu, and LeTV, and was active on blogs, QQ Space and other platforms, and its playback volume and popularity continued to increase.
But no matter how popular the Internet is, no one has a concrete concept, nor can it be recognized by the film and television industry, which is still dominated by television platforms.
Therefore, at this stage, stardom is the criterion for most TV dramas and actors, and it can also bring the greatest help to these creative actors.
"If "Love Apartment" succeeds in becoming a star, it will be the first star drama in my acting career."
Li Jinming is a bit ambitious. Her resume is relatively small. She has only participated in one variety show before, and "Love Apartment" is her debut.
In her own words, if it weren't for "Love Apartment", she would probably have changed careers after graduating from college.
"I have the same name as Jin, but the others are not as miserable as the two of us, especially Zhao Ji. Is your movie "Orange in Huainan" going to star soon?"
Chen Chichi exposed his shortcomings and even gave Zhao Ji a hand.
Among the main creators of "Love Apartment", the eldest is Sun Yizhou, who has been in the industry for several years. Jin Shijia and Wang Chuanjun have both filmed "The Prince of Tennis".
Although Lou Yixiao is the youngest among them, he has played the female lead in "The Best of Us" and is the most famous among them.
But Zhao Ji is not far behind. More importantly, she also has the heroine of "Orange in Huainan" which is expected to be a star.
Because of this, although the people in "Love Apartment" are vaguely headed by Chen Chichi, Zhao Ji's status is very transcendent.
Lou Yixiao and Zhao Ji have the best relationship among them because of "The Best of Us", so they took the initiative to reveal the good news for Zhao Ji.
"If nothing else, it should be launched around New Year's Day. Blue Whale just called Sister Ji yesterday to discuss the publicity announcement."
As soon as these words came out, several people looked at Zhao Ji with more complicated expressions.
But after all, most of them have been college classmates for several years, and they are also comrades who have worked together. The more emotions I feel are envy and happiness for Zhao Ji.
"Yang Rong is so popular right now. Zhao Ji, if you act with Hu Ge again this time, you will definitely be better than her."
Li Jinming cheered Zhao Ji, but Zhao Ji himself was very calm: "I asked about the pilot data, and it was not even a little bit worse than "The Best of Us". Just be normal, the role of Geng Geng is hard to come by.
"
"Luo Zhi is not bad either."
Lou Yixiao has a good relationship with her, she also participated in "The Best of Us", and she and Wei Yang are classmates in the same class, so they know each other somewhat.
"Brother Yang said that the character Luo Zhi is very popular."
Zhao Ji smiled: "He believes everything he says. Maybe he is trying to comfort me."
"You have to have confidence in Brother Yang."
Lou Yixiao is Wei Yang's number one crush on the show, and she protects him very closely: "They are both female leads. Geng Geng can be popular, so naturally Luo Zhi can be."
When Zhao Ji saw this, he wanted to tease her, but his cell phone rang. When he answered the call, he heard an excited roar from his friend on the other side of the phone.
"Go find a computer, your video is going viral!"
"What video?"
"Oh, I can't tell clearly. You can find a computer and check it out."
Zhao Ji was confused. When the others heard "It's popular", they were more active than her. They didn't rush to finish the meal, paid the deposit and let the waiter watch, and then dragged Zhao Ji all over the street to find an Internet cafe.
Finally, we found a house on the street. A few people went in and turned on the machine and opened the web page. Only then did they remember that they didn’t ask what the video was called.
Zhao Ji, the person involved, was more calm. He entered the word [Luo Zhi] and then clicked on links that filled the screen. The top one was a video from Tudou.com.
"Cry me! This is the secret love ceiling of domestic film and television dramas"
For some reason, when Zhao Ji saw this novel and eye-catching title, he instinctively thought of Wei Yang's face.
Before she could even look at the title of the page below, other people rushed to her to click on the first link.
"More than 3.5 million views!?"
Chen Chichi exclaimed, the number of views on video websites these days is not that impressive, especially Tudou, which has millions of views, which is already very impressive.
In his impression, "Love Apartment" seems to have only a few episodes that have exceeded 1 million+.
This video alone has more than 3.5 million views. No wonder Zhao Ji’s friend called her just now and said she was popular.
I couldn't wait to pull out the headphones and asked Zhao Ji to click on the playback. The beginning of the video was a comparison of two edited scenes.
The young Zhao Ji is wearing a high school uniform with a ponytail, and the more mature Zhao Ji is wearing regular clothes.
In both versions, Zhao Ji looks at the school uniform/regular uniform not far away with the same gentle eyes, and the young/mature Hu Ge also pretends to be casual and follows behind him, and the narration sounds.
"Have you ever had a crush on someone, whether it was in the past or now, and you only dared to look at his back silently?"
After this narration, the melody of "Light Chaser" and Zhao Ji's singing also appeared.
"If you are a firework on the sea
I am the foam of the waves
At a certain moment your light illuminated me
…”
The delicate lyrics accompanied by a slightly sad melody stunned everyone around and even two people passing by.
