Chapter 352: Thirty Years Hedong, Thirty Years Hexi
"Actors Come to PK" has officially come to an end
This popular variety show quickly became popular in a very short period of time after its launch and became the most watched variety show at the beginning of the year.
After that, the popularity continued to rise, and in the later period, it swept all directions, taking away almost half of the popularity of domestic variety shows. Even the movies and TV shows that were released in the same period had to be withdrawn three times, making it difficult to compete with it.
The senior executives of Penguin Video were crazy with joy. The dividends brought by "Actors Come to PK" to Penguin Video exceeded their imagination.
This one-month-long program has brought almost more profit to Penguin Video than the previous websites in one quarter.
This is not an exaggeration. This program is so popular that it is known as the benchmark for online variety shows. Penguin is also a famous moneymaker. With this popularity, the advertising fee for the program alone is astronomical.
The huge benefits have made Penguin Video’s senior executives attach great importance to "Actors Come to PK", and it has been formulated as a key seed project for the website.
The competition in the first season is still in the elimination stage, and they have begun to prepare plans for the next season.
The director team and Penguin Video executives contacted Zuo Le and other four mentors, hoping that they can continue to participate in the second season.
Especially Zuo Le, Zuo Le has made a great contribution to the show "Actors Come to PK" to be as popular as it is now. Other instructors can be replaced, but Zuo Le is difficult to replace.
Unfortunately, Zuo Le is not very interested in participating in the second season.
He came to the variety show to play, and then left after playing. He didn't want to be trapped in a variety show. Anyway, as a director, he didn't rely on popularity, so he didn't care about participating in variety shows to maintain popularity.
Furthermore, if Zuo Le does a variety show for one season, it will take at least one month, and at most it will take more than two months.
How much advertising fee can Penguin Video give Zuo Le in total?
How much profit can Zuo Le make if he uses this time to make movies and TV series?
He was so blind that he left his own business alone and came here to work for Boss Ma just to make fun of the "Good morning, worker" joke.
If you want Zuo Le to change his mind, unless Penguin Video is willing to give up part of the share of "Actors Come to PK" for Zuo Le to invest.
The part-time worker became a shareholder, and Zuo Le was willing to work.
But obviously, Penguin Video is definitely not willing to give up this golden chicken that lays golden eggs to others, even if it is only part of it.
Zuo Le is very important to "Actors Come to PK". Without him, it will be a very big blow to the second season, and it may even reach the point of breaking the muscles and bones.
But that's all.
After all, Zuo Le is just a mentor. If he were replaced by other mentors, although he would lose a lot of popularity and popularity, and also lack the most popular hot spots, the basic structure of the program would still be there.
The behind-the-scenes team of directors, planners, screenwriters, dubbing, etc. are the real core of Zhu Yi...ahem..."Actors Come to PK".
With the foundation accumulated in the first season, as long as the program team finds new hot spots, the second season of "Actors Come to PK" will be able to meet the psychological expectations of Penguin Video executives even if it is not as popular as the first season.
As a result, Zuo Le left "Actors Come to PK". Although the top management of Penguin Video was slightly dissatisfied, they did not say anything about "Zhonghui Chaos" and gave them their blessings, and everyone broke up peacefully.
In fact, they don't dare to engage in Zuo Le.
Shanhe Drama is now gaining momentum and is dominating the field of TV dramas. Penguin Video finally reached a strategic cooperation with Shanhe——
In addition to sitcoms, the online copyrights of Shanhe dramas will be sold to Penguin Video first.
Of course, the premise is that Penguin Video’s bid is in line with Sunward’s psychological price. Within this range, even if other websites bid slightly higher or offer more favorable conditions, Sunward will consider Penguin Video first.
Penguin Video also opened up a lot of resources to Shanhe, including Shanhe TV series, movies, and Shanhe artists, and cooperated with Penguin Video in all aspects.
Also having strategic cooperation with Shanhe is Coin Station. The method is different from Penguin Video, but it is also a win-win situation.
This makes the two websites Qiguoguo and Kuyou very jealous. They hold a hoe every day and want to poach and bring Shanhe to their side.
If Penguin Video falls out with Zuo Le for "Actors Come to PK", these two companies will support Shanhe at all costs, and then replace Penguin Video and Shanhe to reach a new cooperation.
Based on this alone, it was too late for Penguin Video to coax Zuo Le, so how could he possibly offend him...
………
Among the four mentors, Zuo Le will not participate in the second season, but the other three have no intention of leaving.
Yan Fei and Guo Xiaosi took a fancy to the popularity of the show and planned to stay there to maintain its popularity. Lao Zhang didn't care about this, but he had shares in the show.
There are two top directors in total. If Zuo Le leaves, if he leaves again, "Actors Come to PK" will not only be as simple as breaking the muscles and bones, so whether it is public or private, Lao Zhang will not dismantle the program team.
If nothing else happens, the second season of "Actors Come to PK" will feature their three old mentors with a new mentor.
But this has nothing to do with Zuo Le. After the finals, he rushed back to Quancheng and silently prepared to become a dad. The little energy he spared was devoted to the upcoming Shanhe drama "Detective Di Renjie".
Since the beginning of 2022, Shanhe Drama has launched two new dramas.
"Family with Children 5" maintains the usual standards of the series, almost the same as the fourth one.
This sitcom was filmed for 5 years, and its ratings are probably between 2.2 and 2.5, while its Douhua score remains at 8.1 and 8.5. If there is no special hit point in the future, it will be difficult for the sequel to break through this performance limit.
Zuo Le also has no intention of asking this drama to break through himself. As long as it can maintain this performance and not collapse, the crew of "Family with Children" will be considered a meritorious service.
However, another series of Shanhe, "Serious Case Group Six", gave him a big surprise this year.
No one expected that Wang Qian, an unknown director with little directing experience, would surpass her teacher Kong Sheng.
After the finale of "Case 2" aired, the average ratings of the entire drama approached 2.6, setting the highest ratings in the series.
The word-of-mouth rating is also very good, with 8.5, which is the same as the first part and only 0.2 points worse than the second part.
You know, the difficulties faced by "Serious Case Group 6 3" are not small. Director Kong Sheng will not talk about it. The male protagonist Fan Min and important supporting actors Jiang Chao and Mao Tong have also left. Can the newly formed starring team win over the old ones?
The hearts of the audience are still unknown.
Before the broadcast, some Sunward executives were even prepared for the poor performance of "Serious Case Group 6 3".
As a result, Wang Qian went against the current and became famous despite the pressure. She completely secured her position as the director of "Serious Case Group Six" and became the fifth director of Shanhe.
………
But then again, although the success of "Serious Case Group 6 3" is inseparable from the efforts of Wang Qian and the crew, it does also have an element of luck.
When "Serious Case Group 3" was on the air, it was at the same time that "Actors Come to PK" was becoming popular.
Duan Long, who plays the main villain in the play, became a blockbuster in "Actors Come to PK" with his superb acting skills, gaining countless fans and becoming the most popular among the 40 participating actors.
Duan Long's popularity has brought a lot of popularity to "Serious Case Series 3". Without him, the TV series' performance would not be bad, but it is hard to say whether it can achieve the highest ratings in the series.
And now, with Duan Long becoming the champion of "Actors Come to PK", the popularity of him is even higher, which is also an important reason why "Detective Di Renjie" is broadcast at this time.
Duan Long plays Hu Jinghui in "Detective Di Renjie" and is one of the protagonists of the first case in the drama, the Youzhou case. Taking advantage of his popularity, there is no limit to what he can do.
In fact, Xue Jun regrets it to death now.
Duan Long had the opportunity to play Li Yuanfang, but he thought Duan Long was not well-known, so he only gave him the role of Hu Jinghui.
Who would have thought that Duan Long would become a celebrity by participating in a variety show, and he would become one of the biggest hits in the promotion of "Detective Di Renjie".
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi.
Xue Jun feels that he needs to change his habit of looking at people based on their celebrity status.
Especially the group of artists like Shanhe, they are all perverts, they usually look inconspicuous, but when they seize the opportunity, they immediately take off.
If he keeps this old mentality, he will suffer big losses sooner or later...
………
After more than half a month of promotion, "Detective Di Renjie" premiered on Dongshan Satellite TV during prime time on April 15, 2022.
