In late May, the premiere of "Eternal Dragon Sword" ended.
Beijing TV's national average ratings were 11.1, its highest rating was 17.4, and its local ratings averaged over 38%. Within 20 days of its first broadcast, it always ranked first in the same period.
The data of Modu Channel was slightly lower. In the end, the national ratings were only 10.09, the highest ratings were less than 15, and the average local ratings were only about 30%.
During the same period, it basically occupied the second place. It was occasionally counterattacked by CCTV, but it was still considered strong.
The reason why there is a gap in the ratings between the two channels is that on the one hand, Cao Xuan's basic market is stronger in the north, and on the other hand, the SARS prevention and control in Beijing and surrounding areas is stricter, which has increased the ratings.
This is because the Shanghai Metropolis region also attaches great importance to SARS prevention and control. If it were a province where SARS had little impact, the ratings data might be even lower.
Of course, the ratings base of ordinary satellite TV is not as good as that of Beijing. The market share of the two satellite TVs in Shanghai and Shanghai also has a great impact on the ratings.
But no matter what, the ratings of "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" are very popular, and it is slightly better than the 2000 "Young Man Bao Qingtian".
It is worth mentioning that the latter was also premiered jointly by these two channels and won the national satellite TV ratings championship in 2000.
And this year's "The Heaven and the Dragon Sword" is likely to be even better!
The excellent first-run performance has led to the second-run broadcast rights of "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Sword" being snapped up by major TV stations and local stations, and even offered a price that set a new record for the second-run broadcast rights.
Through Boss Wu’s relationship, “Heaven and Dragon Sword” has also been released in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
Especially in Taiwan, it is broadcast almost at the same time as the mainland, and the ratings are quite good.
Although it is not as popular as Treasure Island and even broke records, it is not far behind and even surpasses many classic Hong Kong versions of Jin Yong dramas.
In the past two years, due to the environment and competition, more than 90% of Taiwan's local TV dramas are idol dramas or Love City.
There are fewer and fewer local costume TV dramas in Taiwan. Even those produced by Taiwanese companies are jointly shot with the mainland, and the whole scene is in the mainland.
Therefore, in recent years, the costume drama market in Taiwan Province has been basically the same as that in the mainland. Whatever costume dramas are popular in the mainland, Taiwan Province will also follow suit.
And places like Malaysia and Singapore, which have been deeply influenced by Hong Kong and Taiwan, are not much different.
However, Xiangjiang is still supported by TVB. Although it will be affected, it has not yet reached the point where the costume TV drama position has been completely lost.
Boss Wu is well-connected in Taiwan, and Jin Yong's scripts are inherently the password for ratings, not to mention the popularity of the male and female protagonists.
Cao Xuan is extremely well-known in Taiwan and even Southeast Asia. Among Chinese singers, the two kings of Liu and Zhang of the older generation can barely compete with each other. The new generation are all younger brothers for the time being.
The heroine Jia Jingwen has gained a lot of fame in Taiwan Province in the past two years, especially after the scandal with Cao Xuan, she seems to be a bit top-notch in Taiwan Province.
The two are already well-known, and the fact that they co-starred as the male and female protagonists somewhat confirmed the scandal and added a big hit point.
Due to various reasons, it is easy to understand why "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Sword" is popular in Taiwan.
Of Cao Xuan's two Jin Yong dramas, perhaps in terms of classic reputation, "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" is inferior to "The Swordsman".
But in terms of public influence and popularity, "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" is still better than the more easily adapted and popular version.
………
The popularity of the ratings also made several actors in the show quickly become popular.
Needless to say, Cao Xuan has further consolidated his national popularity. The success of many Jin Yong dramas has also earned him high praise for his ancient costume martial arts.
Leaving aside Hong Kong and Taiwan, there are only a few popular actors in Mainland China who are good at acting in costumes and have a wide range of acting roles.
Lu Yi's image is more suitable for modern times, and he rarely appears in ancient costumes. Huang Lei is similar, and he mainly focuses on literary youth and Republic of China dramas.
Zhou Jie's appearance is slightly lower, Pan Yueming's temperament is softer, Hu Bing is just a make-up, and the soft-boiled guy fell into a trough temporarily because of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Chen Kun currently has no good costume works and is not very attractive. Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan, who have emerged in the past two years, both relied on costumes to get to the top, but their backgrounds are still shallow.
So after doing the math, apart from the few mentioned above, the mainland niche students who are good at ancient costumes are mainly Cao Xuan, Ren Quan, Huang Haibing, Yan Kuan and others.
In fact, Cao Xuan is the most popular.
He can play the role of the old perverted Ximen official, the ruthless killer Jing Wuming, he can play the upright and funny detective Bao Zheng, he can also play the dashing and carefree knight Linghu Chong, and now there is a decent and passionate Zhang Wuji.
His business level is good, he has a wide range of roles, and he is famous. Therefore, for many film and television projects, as long as it is a role of a costume niche, the first reaction is to find Cao Xuan.
It's a pity that most of the people who can't afford it, and those who can afford it, Cao Xuan may not accept it. Countless directors and screenwriters can only watch and love him.
This is not an exaggeration. Cao Xuan's popularity, acting skills and image are still very well-known in the film and television circles.
At one time, many screenwriters were asked to directly use him as a prototype when writing scripts. When submitting the scripts, they named Cao Xuan to play the role, but 99% of them could not achieve their long-cherished wish.
Many directors are also interested in Cao Xuan, and there are even some famous directors, but again, the salary is expensive and it is difficult to find people.
Lao Mouzi is awesome enough. He was declined by Cao Xuan when he was invited to play "Hero". That's fine. After all, he is a supporting role, so it's understandable that he was rejected.
This time in "House of Flying Daggers", Lao Mouzi planned to let him cooperate with Liu Tianwang and serve as one of the two male leads, but he was rejected for the second time.
Although Cao Xuan's reason was that he had to shoot a new movie and there was not enough time, Lao Mouzi was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything.
On the contrary, in the new scene, Boss Zhang made a couple of strange remarks in front of the media, which probably meant that Cao Xuan didn't know what was good and what was good.
With Cao Xuan's current assets and status in the entertainment industry, most people in the industry would not dare to offend him. Unless they have a grudge, they would not break up easily.
Fan Xiaopang changed jobs. Whether it was the Wang brothers or Sister Hua, they mainly expressed their blessings when mentioning this matter, and hardly expressed any words to Cao Xuan and Fanxing.
But what do you think of Mr. Zhang in the new picture? The evaluation of mad dogs may be a bit excessive, but it does mean that he is somewhat rampant when he succeeds.
In the original time and space, this man once called Mr. Han of China Film Group a mountain eagle. He was so busy in the film industry that even one of the bosses in charge dared to scold him. This shows how strong his head is.
"Hero" took in a box office of 250 million in the mainland last year, and also performed well in the European and American markets, becoming a representative of the film industry.
For this reason, Boss Zhang is so high-spirited that he considers himself the leader in the entire Chinese film and television industry. What's wrong with Cao Xuan, a bad singer, who dares to refuse the invitation without naming him by name?
However, he is crazy, and Lao Mouzi is not stupid.
Not to mention the media matrix and film and television funds under Cao Xuan, the most important thing is that since last year, Cao Xuan has deployed the Star Cinema Line.
In the summer of 2002, he officially became a shareholder of Changguang Cinema Line, holding 53% of the shares at the beginning. After gaining the right to speak, Cao Xuan immediately promoted the reorganization and built new theaters with capital injection, diluting the shares of other shareholders.
By the end of last year, Cao Xuan had fully taken control of the management rights of Changguang Cinemas, holding more than 65% of the shares, and officially changed its name to Fanxing Cinemas.
After entering 2003, Cao Xuan still increased investment, and when SARS caught up with him, the cinema chain market suffered heavy losses. Related small cinema chains could not hold on, and some shareholders of Fanxing Cinema Line were also strapped for funds. Gu
At this critical moment, Cao Xuan not only refused to retreat, but also increased investment. In 2003 alone, it is expected to invest 200 million yuan, specifically to build new theaters and acquire other theaters.
With an investment of this scale, it would be difficult for other shareholders of Fanxing Cinemas to keep up, and they could not defy the strategic investment of the major shareholders and could only passively accept it.
Because of SARS, many people simply sold their shares to Cao Xuan. A few still chose to hold on, and their shares were diluted less and less.
If everything goes well, by the end of 2003, Cao Xuan is expected to control more than 90% of Fanxing Cinemas, or even directly hold 100% of the shares.
After all, with 90% of the shares, there are too many ways to squeeze out small shareholders unless there are special circumstances.
Colleagues who have full control of Fanxing Cinema Line, due to SARS, the theater chain's development speed has exceeded Cao Xuan's expectations.
Before this summer vacation, Fanxing Cinemas had more than 20 theaters available, all of which were medium-sized or above, with screens ranging from 100 to 120 pieces.
Many theaters are also in the process of acquisition negotiations. As long as the funds can keep up, Fanxing is expected to acquire 200 screens before 2005 and become one of the top five theaters in the country.
This is because Cao Xuan is working hard to acquire high-quality theaters as much as possible to facilitate restructuring. He also requires that all theaters and land be acquired. The acquisition conditions are relatively harsh, otherwise the scale will be even larger.
Cao Xuan moves frequently, and people in the industry are not fools. They don't know how much capital this young man has now.
Fanxing Cinema has hundreds of screens, accounting for more than 1/20 of the total number of screens in domestic cinemas, and is basically located in second-tier cities or above.
If you offend him, you can't go too far due to industry rules, but even if you do some tricks, although it won't be a life-or-death decision for a movie, it will still be enough to hurt your muscles and bones.
Lao Mouzi didn't want to use "House of Flying Daggers" to test Boss Cao's magnanimity.
So before Cao Xuan could react, he took the initiative to clarify with the media on behalf of Boss Zhang, saying that there was no misunderstanding. Boss Zhang was talking about someone else, not Cao Xuan.
When they gave in, Cao Xuan found it hard to take action. After all, they didn't name them by name. If he took aim at them, it would be a bit scolding.
Although he ignored it on the surface, the cautious Cao Xuan still wrote down a small notebook for him.
Just like what Lao Mouzi worried about, with Fanxing Cinema in hand, he could use his hands and feet to torture them to death, or disgust them to death.
Because Cao Xuan's fame base is so large, even if "Eternal Dragon Sword" is popular, its growth rate is limited and can only be regarded as the icing on the cake.
But for other leading actors, the gain is still huge.
Jia Jingwen was well-known before, but she had very few notable works.
Before the broadcast of "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer", her most prominent roles in the mainland were Sun Xiaohong in "Little Li's Flying Knife" and Nian Nujiao in "Emperor of the Han Dynasty", neither of which were protagonists.
Therefore, Jia Jingwen's fame is great, but it is a bit false. The general public has the impression of her as the Taiwanese version of the Heavenly King's Wife. But this time in "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer", Zhao Min has solidified her fame a lot and she has been widely involved in the industry.
Among the Taiwanese buddies who hang out in the field of mainland TV dramas, their fame and popularity are closely matched by Ziwei's.
Gao Yuanyuan has made even greater profits. In the past two years, she played several roles in Fanxing drama. However, except for Princess An Ning in "The Unruly Princess", which became very popular, her other works had limited impact.
"The Family" has too few scenes and too many female characters. Leng Qingqiu and Bai Xiuzhu took up more than 70% of the attention.
The remaining ones include the eighth young lady, the sixth young lady, three sisters-in-law, confidante, and maid Lian'erfen. Too little attention falls on her, the fourth young lady.
"Armor Warrior" has a real heroine, and the TV series is also very popular. It is still replayed on various local stations from time to time.
But the key point is that the audience of this drama is teenagers, and they are relatively young teenagers. Most of them have little interest in beauties now, and gentle older sisters are just a cloud. Everyone is more concerned about who is more powerful, the Flame Dragon Man or the Snow Mastiff Man.
Only after a few years have passed and these kids have enlightened themselves and watch Gao Yuanyuan in the drama again, will they slap themselves hard.
Why did I just watch Tie Liaoda fight in the first place?
At that time, Gao Yuanyuan will become the childhood goddess in the hearts of countless people, causing a wave of love.
But at this stage, even if some boys are in love, they are still young and cannot have any influence at all.
Therefore, Gao Yuanyuan has always been tepid. "The Diaoman Princess" became popular for a while, and now "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer" became a big hit, and she became famous in one fell swoop.
Speaking of which, Great Beauty is not easy. It debuted in 2000 and only officially became popular in 2003.
The next door had already been the wife of the factory director and a top-notch beauty in the Mainland...
Gao Yuanyuan rose sharply and became the third star promoted by Fanxing, but his popularity is even lower than that of Dong Xuan.
Leng Qingqiu in "The Golden Family" is an out-and-out heroine. Even though Bai Xiuzhu's character has been enhanced, she has not been able to steal her limelight.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is a complaint, and the ratings are pretty good. Mu Nianci, played by Dong Xuan, also received the least criticism among the male and female protagonists and the second male and female lead.
The main drawbacks surrounding Mu Nianci are that she looks old and her acting skills are a little immature.
It doesn't seem like a good thing to say, but compared to Guo Jing's idiot, Huang Rong's duck voice, and Yang Kang's appearance, Yang Kang's appearance is so ugly that his sense of superiority is immediately apparent.
Dong Xuan doesn't have many scenes in "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", but Yang Buhui's charming and infatuated character is still quite catchy.
Coupled with three consecutive Jin Yong dramas, even if "Dragon" has not been aired, she has been exposed a lot in various publicity.
In terms of popularity and popularity, in addition to the four Xiaohuadan, Dong Xuan is currently firmly ranked first among the Xiaohuadan. Not to mention Gao Yuanyuan, who has just become famous, even Fan Xiaopang, who is the heroine of "Cell Phone", is actually two points behind.
.
Yang Xue is still working steadily, taking each film one step at a time. She still has a good attitude and plans to accumulate slowly and wait for her opportunity to come.
The role of Song Qingshu played by Yan Kuan is not very likable. It can only be said that he looks familiar and has a few more qualifications.
An Yixuan, who plays Xiao Zhao, is a relatively new star. I heard that a Taiwanese film crew has approached her to be the female lead, but Fanxing has not signed her and is not paying attention to her.
Generally speaking, in addition to making money and continuing to build a reputation in "The Legend of Heaven and Sword of the Dragon", the biggest benefit to Yu Fanxing is that it has created another high-profile relationship.
This advertising queen is already well-known. Although her level of earning money is not as high as that of Fan Xiaopang, she is still very capable and efficient. In the next two years, Fanxing will be able to earn a lot of money from her.
Cao Xuan was very pleased. Although he didn't have the support bowl, it would be good to help himself make more money. It's not easy to marry two wives.
The Empress of the East Palace likes to eat durian, and she plans to buy a piece of land in Thailand or Malaysia to grow it.
Empress Nishinomiya is a little obsessed with tea ceremony recently, and she wants to see if she can go to Yunnan or find a tea farm somewhere.
He wanted money both at home and outside the house, and it was all thanks to Gao Yuanyuan and others that he earned it...
Great Beauty:(╯>д)╯?˙3˙?
