The main reason is that he is too young. Even if he asks for leave, he cannot stay outside the school for too long. Otherwise, if he is completely let alone, the school will not be able to explain it.
So he had to get things done within a limited time, forcing him to improve efficiency.
After filming here, the crew immediately packed up and returned to the Magic City to get involved in post-production editing.
Li Yushuang and Zhou Bujie were also very curious and didn't know how Xiao Qian would cut this section, so they followed him to the Magic City.
When they saw Xiao Qian's three strokes, five divided by two, and the BGM was installed, the group of people were all dumbfounded.
"Is this still a TV series? Why am I watching it? It looks like a movie?"
"This part is too mysterious. I watched it. When it is broadcast, it is guaranteed to make countless people look at the police with admiration."
Yang Yuan also came.
As a representative of another producer of the TV series, he cannot inspect the finished product when it is released.
Just after watching it, this guy felt pain and happiness.
"I said, Xiaoqian, you've gone too far. Why are there only sixteen episodes? It's such a good show, it can be filmed for eighty episodes."
Eighty episodes?
Xiao Qian conveniently touched the enamel tea jar on the table and wanted to take a picture of this guy's head.
"The story only lasts for sixteen episodes, so naturally we will only shoot sixteen episodes."
Yang Yuan's eyes were red.
"There are only sixteen episodes of such a good show. What do you want us to do in the station? Even if it is one episode a day, won't it be finished quickly? Xiaoqian, you are making it difficult for us. This is too short.
There is no way to negotiate with advertisers."
Ma Yujiao next to him is similar.
"It's a little short. I'm afraid it will be finished before it becomes red."
Xiao Qian knocked on the table and decided to correct their unhealthy habits.
"Boy, please see clearly. Although this drama only has sixteen episodes, each episode is ninety minutes long, which is the length of a movie. In addition to the tight plot and advanced shooting techniques, the audience watched
It’s like watching a movie, aren’t you satisfied?”
The plot content of the TV series cannot be compared with the short and concise content of the movie. Therefore, after Xiao Qian compressed the number of episodes, he had to extend the duration of each episode to ninety minutes.
He thought it was nothing, Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao couldn't stand it anymore.
How could anyone do this?
Obviously an episode of a TV series lasts forty-five minutes, and then add in commercial time and intermission, how comfortable it is.
Your episode is ninety minutes long, can the audience still go to the toilet?
Xiao Qian became anxious.
"Boy, is my TV series good or not?"
Regarding the quality of the TV series, Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao really can't fault it.
“It’s beautiful, very beautiful.”
"I really don't know how you came up with it. They all seem to be short stories about family life, but they are particularly interesting when photographed by you. When they are humorous, they make people laugh, and when they are sad, they make people cry. I don't know why, but after reading your
In this drama, the police who usually don’t care about them really feel that they are so great.”
Xiao Qian ignored Ma Yujiao's long speech and only insisted on his own point of view.
"Since my play is so good, are the audience still willing to go to the toilet in the middle? Why can't they go to the toilet in advance? Do you have any misunderstandings about the audience's prostate? In my play, there are no pee spots throughout the show."
"No need to urinate..."
Ma Yujiao smacked his lips, obviously this later popular word made him a little confused. It took him a long time to understand the meaning. But he found that this statement was really appropriate.
At least he is so old, but he just watched three episodes in one go and didn't even want to move.
"Hey, the pace of your play is so fast, not a single second is unnecessary. Is it really okay to lock the audience in front of the TV like this?"
Xiao Qian was dumbfounded.
"We who make TV series don't want to lock the audience in front of the TV, but also want to push it to the outside. Isn't that stupid?"
Ma Yujiao's old face turned red and he wished he could give himself a slap.
I have been working in television and broadcasting for decades, and finally I was educated by a child. If this spreads out, how can I have the face to manage my subordinates?
"Haha, that's right."
He was still worried about shame, but Yang Yuan was straightforward.
"Xiao Qian, I admit that your drama is very exciting, it is definitely a good drama. But the problem is still the same, the number of episodes is too few. Even if we only broadcast one episode a day, it will be finished in sixteen days. So little
Time, how can advertisers pay for it?”
Xiao Qian picked her nose, very puzzled by the thinking of people in this era.
"Why is there one episode a day? If such a good drama is broadcast casually, wouldn't it be irresponsible to the audience?"
This time it was Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao's turn to be dumbfounded.
"Isn't it normal to have one episode a day? Even two episodes a day is what it should be."
Xiao Qian was also convinced by these people's business ideas.
"Let me ask you, when will the audience feel comfortable sitting in front of the TV and watching TV?"
Ma Yujiao thought about it for a while and got the answer.
"It should be the weekend. Everyone doesn't go to work and rests at home. If there are no other entertainment activities, watching TV is the best pastime."
Now that they understand, it's easier to handle.
Xiao Qian flexed his fingers and began to teach the two of them.
"There are seven days in a week, from Monday to Friday, everyone goes to work and goes to school. After a tiring day, when you go home and have a hot meal, you want to go to sleep immediately. Even if you can watch TV for a while, the news network will take it away.
After the news broadcast, you should also check the weather forecast. This is a lot of time. How much time can be left for everyone to watch TV series? Therefore, the ratings of TV series from Monday to Friday are bound to be low. But on Saturdays and Sundays
Days are different. Everyone is resting at home. They have nothing to do at night and have refreshed themselves. They don’t have to go to work the next day, so it doesn’t matter if they watch a little longer. So on Saturdays and Sundays from 8 to 10 pm
TV series must be the best."
At this point, he suddenly asked: "Is our play the best?"
Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao couldn't help but nod.
Both of them are old men who have been working in the industry for many years. If they are asked to produce TV series by themselves, they may not be able to do it. But whether a TV series is good or not can be seen at a glance.
In Ma Yujiao's words, he has never seen a TV series with such a compact plot. Even some movies cannot be so dizzying. The exciting plots come one after another, and it is very enjoyable to watch.
Since both of them agreed, Xiao Qian had nothing to be polite about.
"We have such a good TV series, why don't we save on broadcasting and have to finish it in one go? If we choose the broadcast time at 8 o'clock on Sunday evening, one episode per week, then it can be broadcast for sixteen weeks.
Okay? Four weeks is one month, we can definitely broadcast it for four months."
Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao looked pale.
I can't believe that a little brat can be so ruthless.
The sixteen-episode TV series will be broadcast for four months...
No amount of 60-episode TV series can do this.
"No, absolutely not, we will be scolded to death by the audience if we do this."
"It doesn't matter if the audience scolds you. If you broadcast one episode a week, who can remember the previous plot? The plot of your drama is so tight that if you miss it even a little bit, you won't be able to connect. If you do this, aren't you pushing the audience away?
"
Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao criticized Xiao Qian both verbally and physically, making him look like a reactionary.
I have never heard of any TV station that dares to do this.
Xiao Qian knew which TV station would do this, but he felt that if he named KBS and SBS, these two guys would play a mixed doubles match against him.
Seeing that Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao were so determined in their opposition, Xiao Qian could only compromise.
"Otherwise, if we broadcast two episodes every week for two months, that's no problem, right?"
Seeing that Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao were still a little entangled, he became anxious.
"Although our drama has a small number of episodes, each episode lasts for ninety minutes. One episode is equal to two episodes of other dramas. If you calculate it this way, we are still at a loss."
These words became the Dinghai Shenzhen, completely convincing Yang Yuan and Ma Yujiao.
Although Chinese TV dramas have always been broadcast day after day, Xiao Qian's theory that weekends are important was also recognized by the two.
Even though the ratings statistics of this era are very rough, they still have reference value. It is worthwhile to put this drama exclusively on weekends, show the best quality, and make it a trump card.
The two of them went back to their respective homes and studied separately.
Xiao Qian knew that the possibility of making the trip was very high.
Originally, there was no market for weekly dramas in China. The audience was not used to it and the TV stations were not willing.
The most fundamental reason is that the production models of weekly dramas and daily dramas are completely different.
The biggest feature of weekly dramas is that they are filmed and broadcast at the same time. But in China, due to censorship, the TV stations must have all the dramas when they get them.
This leaves no room for weekly broadcasts. After all, all the episodes of the TV series have been obtained, so we must quickly switch to ratings.
However, this time Xiao Qian's new drama only has sixteen episodes, but it's a hit-or-miss.
