The bidding hotline is 021-2223333. Interested TV stations and video broadcast platforms are welcome to consult and discuss cooperation.Quantity is limited, first come first served. "This is the official Weibo of Tianhai Entertainment.

And Yangcheng Satellite TV posted a Weibo: "At 6 o'clock in the evening on June 5th, lock on Yangcheng Satellite TV to watch "Legend of the Condor Heroes". It's wonderful waiting for you! Believe me, Mr. Wang Xuan's production must be a boutique! This "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" "Shooting the Condors" will be the best martial arts TV series in history, I would rather kill it by mistake than miss it!!

The investment hotline: 020-666×888. All major brands are welcome to consult and discuss cooperation. The number is limited, first come first served ! "

The content of the two microblogs is almost the same.

Yangcheng Satellite TV's official Weibo didn't get much attention, and the Weibo it posted wasn't very popular, but since Wang Xuan is Tianhai's boss, Tianhai Entertainment's official Weibo got a lot of attention. boiling.

"6666!"

"I'm going! Didn't it just wrap up in March? Is this the final file?"

"What about the person who said that "Legend of the Condor Heroes" might not be available at the end of the year? His face was swollen."

"Don't blame them. After a normal film and television drama is completed, it will take at least half a year to broadcast. It can only be said that Wang Xuan's speed is too fast, beyond everyone's imagination."

"Just why did it premiere on Yangcheng Satellite TV? Yangcheng Satellite TV is not as good as the five David TVs, and the ratings are far worse."

"Isn't it that "Shooting the Condor" is really bad? So no one cares about it except Yangcheng Satellite TV, and the premiere rights can only be sold to Yangcheng Satellite TV?"

"Probably!"

"There is a possibility of a fart! You should first look at the official Weibo content posted by Yangcheng Satellite TV. They say that Wang Xuan's production must be a high-quality product. "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will be the best martial arts TV series ever. If Wang Xuan's filming is not good, do you think Yangcheng Satellite TV dares to promote like this?" someone said.

"Cut! A gimmick, do you understand a gimmick!"

"If you don't blow it louder, where will the heat and attention come from?"

"Whether the filming of "The Condor Shooting" is good or not depends on the shooting cost and the price of the first broadcast rights. Does anyone know how much the filming cost and the price of the first broadcast rights of "The Condor Shooting" were sold?"

"I don't know how much the premiere rights of "Shooting the Condors" were sold for, but I know a thing or two about the shooting costs. As far as I know, the shooting cost of "Shooting the Condors" is as high as 1.6 million."

"1.6 million? How is that possible! Are you kidding me?"

"Although the cast of "The Condor Shooting" has a lot of old actors, their salaries are not high. The highest one should be Zeng Wei, a first-line actor, but his salary is estimated to be only 500 million yuan, and the other veteran actors are similar. It would be nice to have a total salary of 3000 million. The young leading actors are all newcomers. Not to mention, the salary will definitely not add up to 800 million. Plus some extras, that is to say, the entire crew of Shooting the Condor, the actors' salary is estimated It’s less than 4000 million, and you actually said that the filming cost of "Shooting the Condor" was 1.6 million? Is it possible!!!"

"That's right, I guess he doesn't even know what 1.6 million is!"

"Come on, shut up those two people upstairs! He doesn't know what 1.6 million is, don't you know? You should first see who is talking about it!" someone said.

"Hey! I didn't notice that I didn't pay attention upstairs, but the one who broke the news just now is actually Weibo who broke the news!" Someone was surprised.

"Damn it! As we all know, all the revelations made by Weibo Whistleblower are the result of his own in-depth investigations on the front line, and there are very few mistakes. So, the shooting cost of "Shooting the Condor" is really as high as 1.6 million?" Someone was shocked. call.

"But how is it possible? The actor's salary is less than 4000 million, and the filming cost is 1.6 million. Doesn't it mean that the filming alone cost 1.2 million? Isn't this incredible?" someone said.

"So do you have any misunderstandings about the shooting cost? Do you know where the bulk of the shooting cost of a film is spent? Actors' remuneration? Wrong! It's costumes, Taoism, culture, and scenery!
Costumes, Taoism, culture, and scenery are the most expensive parts of a film, especially for large-scale costume dramas such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which have more prominent requirements for clothing, Taoism, culture, and scenery, and are more expensive. money.

If the actor's remuneration exceeds the shooting cost of costumes, Taoism, transformation and scenery, such a film is absolutely deformed, and the costumes, Taoism, transformation and scenery are a mess.Unless the employer invests in services, roads, culture, and scenery at the same cost, but this possibility is very small, because no employer will be taken advantage of by this kind. "Weibo broke the news that Jun spoke again.

"But the shooting cost of 1.6 million yuan, excluding the actors' remuneration, the average shooting cost per episode is nearly 240 million yuan, which is too high? Even if the persuasion is expensive, do you have to get that much?" someone said.

"Not much at all, let me give you some specifics. The early scenes of "Shooting the Condors" were filmed on the Mongolian grasslands. I followed up the whole process to understand that two scenes cost a lot of money. The other scene is the scene where Guo Jing, Temujin, Torrei and others are galloping on the grassland to shoot the eagles.

In order to film these two scenes well, Wang Xuan rented an unmanned helicopter, a traditional helicopter, and the cost was very expensive, close to one million a day.And in order to shoot the picture that Zhang Gong can teach thousands of troops to change, and you can see thousands of miles of grassland when you return to the horse. These two scenes took 5 days to shoot, and the rental cost of the two helicopters alone cost about 500 million. Clothing, Taoism, and transformation cost at least 800 million yuan. Do you still think that the shooting cost is less than 1.2 million yuan? "Weibo broke the news Jun said.

"Damn it! It cost 800 million for two plays? So willing?"

"It's really rich and powerful!"

"I've gained a lot of experience. If it wasn't for Weibo who broke the news, I really don't know how much money is spent on clothes, Taoism, culture, and scenery."

"Does the 1.6 million filming cost include Wang Xuan's appearance fee?" Someone asked.

"Definitely not!" Weibo broke the news Jundao.

"So, if Wang Xuan's appearance fee is included, how much will the shooting cost of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" be?"

"At least 2 million."

"2 million? The pattern is small, and 2.4 million is not too much! "Shooting the Condor" took seven or eight months to film, Wang Xuan is the chief director, and has been on the set for seven or eight months. The appearance fee of 8000 million is definitely not too much .”

"Since "Shooting the Condor" costs so much money, why can the first broadcast rights only be sold to Yangcheng Satellite TV?"

"Brother, I feel like you look down on Yangcheng Satellite TV."

"There is one thing to say. In the past one or two years, Yangcheng Satellite TV has changed a lot. Last year alone, Yangcheng Satellite TV has attracted two foreign variety shows. Although the ratings are average, if you put it in the past, would you believe it?"

"No matter how Yangcheng Satellite TV changes, it's impossible to compare with the five David TVs in ratings. And in terms of price, it's impossible for Yangcheng Satellite TV to offer a higher price than the five David TVs, right?" someone said.

"You're wrong. It's really hard to say about the ratings. Last year, "I am a Special Forces" premiered on Yangcheng Satellite TV. At the same time, Yangcheng Satellite TV can surpass the top five David TV in terms of ratings. It can only be said that "The Condor Heroes" If "Biography" premieres on five David TVs, the ratings may be higher than if it premieres on Yangcheng Satellite TV. After all, the original audience base is there.

Moreover, who told you that the price offered by Yangcheng Satellite TV will definitely be lower than the price offered by the five David TVs?I just got the definite news that the price of the premiere broadcast rights of "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was sold for 300 million per episode! "Weibo broke the news again.

"300 million? Damn!"

"Crazy! Yangcheng Satellite TV is absolutely crazy!"

"300 million per episode, the premiere rights of the entire "Shooting the Condor" is nearly 1.6 million, isn't Yangcheng Satellite TV afraid of losing money?"

"Damn it, it's a shame that my generation is uneducated, so I can say a word to the world!"

"I thought it was crazy enough for Tianhai to spend 1.6 million to shoot "Shooting the Condors", but I didn't expect Yangcheng Satellite TV to be even more crazy, and dare to spend 1.6 million to buy the premiere rights of "Shooting the Condors", which is equivalent to fully sponsoring Tianhai to shoot "Shooting the Condors" Already."

"Is the news reliable?" someone asked.

"My cousin's cousin's cousin's cousin works in Tianhai, and she's a middle manager. I just asked her, what do you think?" Weibo broke the news.

At this moment, Lin Jun came out to speak: "Weibo's revelation is true, I testify. Because at that time, our Ludong Satellite TV was bidding with Yangcheng Satellite TV for the first broadcast right on the spot, and Ludong Satellite TV opened 280 million per episode. , and lost."

Lin Jun's Weibo is officially certified, and it shows the manager of the TV management department of Ludong Satellite TV, so her words are very credible, and the Internet is full of excitement.

"It's awesome!"

"Spending 1.6 million to buy the premiere rights of a TV series, is this still the Yangcheng Satellite TV I know?"

"I thought it was an exaggeration for Yangcheng Satellite TV to spend 4000 million yuan to buy the premiere rights of "I am a Special Forces" last year. I didn't expect it to overturn my perception this time, 1.6 million yuan!"

"Ye Qingjie, this is not the Yangcheng Satellite TV I know."

"As a native of Yangcheng, I'm happy to hear about it!"

"My ancestors' ancestors' ancestors, our Yangcheng Satellite TV has finally achieved success, and your spirits in heaven can rest in peace."

"I was a little worried before, but now I am full of expectations for the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" filmed by Wang Xuan. A TV series that can cost Yangcheng Satellite TV 1.6 million is not far behind."

"Wait, "Tianjiao Wushuang" will be aired on the prime time of June 6th, while "Legend of the Condor Heroes" will be aired on the prime time of June 4th. Isn't this a collision?"

"So "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will not be aimed at "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", right? I heard that Tian Qiong, the author of the novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", has a feud with Luo Qiu, the author of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes."

"Don't think too much. In the prime time at night, most TV stations broadcast TV dramas, and it's normal to have conflicts."

"Yes. I checked. Yangcheng Satellite TV is currently broadcasting the TV series in prime time at night. It will end on June 6th. It is normal to arrange for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to take over."

"Well, I thought there was something exciting to watch!"

Seeing that the premiere of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has aroused so much discussion on the Internet, the media will naturally not let go of this wave of enthusiasm, and one by one spontaneously used large-scale reports, highlighting the shooting cost of "The Condor Heroes" and premiere rights prices.

However, the discussion about the premiere of "Tianjiao Wushuang", which was still hot before, suddenly became cold and no one cared about it.

This scene made Tian Qiong's complexion very ugly, and he really wanted to scold her.

No wonder.

Speaking of which, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Tianjiao Wushuang" were actually serialized at the same time.When it was serialized, "Tianjiao Wushuang" was always suppressed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Regardless of popularity or performance, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was crushed to death in all aspects.

Without "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Tianjiao Wushuang" would be the number one novel on the Internet that year.After all, "Tianjiao Wushuang" has an average subscription of 8, which is Tianqiong's best score for a novel.

But because of "Shooting the Condor", "Tianjiao Wushuang" became the second.The first and second, seemingly only one place apart, are actually worlds apart.If there is no "Shooting the Condor", the film and television copyright of "Tianjiao Wushuang" can sell at least 1200 million, but now, it has only sold 600 million.

Forget it, now that "Tianjiao Wushuang" has been made into a TV series, and "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was encountered as soon as the official announcement was made.The heat was suppressed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" again, and it was not successful.
This is called Tianqiong's complexion, how can it not be ugly?How can you not want to scold your mother?

"Alright! Let's see who can laugh the best." Tian Qiong snorted coldly.He still has confidence in "Tianjiao Wushuang". After all, he followed up the scriptwriting of this TV series, and the plot highly restores the original work.

Another one is that the shooting cost of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is very high, and the shooting cost of "Heroes of Heroes" is not low, including the actors' remuneration, it also cost 1 million.Moreover, "Tianjiao Wushuang" still premiered on Zhehai Satellite TV. As an existence in the upper middle of the five David TVs, Zhehai Satellite TV's ratings are much higher than that of Yangcheng Satellite TV. I don't believe that "Tianjiao Wushuang" can't come back.

As long as the "Tianjiao Wushuang" TV series becomes popular and overtakes "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he will definitely become famous, and it is not impossible to become the No. 1 in the Internet literary circles.

Then wait and see!
On the other hand, the filming cost and the price of the premiere rights of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" were all intentionally told by Tianhai to Weibo Whistleblower, otherwise how could Weibo Whistleblower get such accurate information?
And the Weibo whistleblower also knows Tianhai's intentions, so he will take the initiative to break the news on the Internet.

The purpose of both sides is similar.

The Weibo whistleblower is to confirm his position as the whistleblower.The more accurate the news he revealed, the more fans will pay attention to it, which is also beneficial to him.For example, accepting advertisements, live broadcasting and delivery of goods.

Tianhai did it for hype and to save publicity costs.

Explosive production costs and the price of the first broadcast rights are the main hype gimmicks of film and television dramas, especially for those big productions.

After all, in the subconscious mind of the audience, there is no difference between high-cost and high-priced film and television dramas.

Sure enough, after Weibo broke the news, the TV series "Shooting the Condors" aroused a lot of discussion on the Internet, and even rushed into the trending searches.This wave can at least save Tianhai tens of millions of publicity expenses.

In addition, Tianhai released these for fishing.

The broadcast rights for the second round of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have not been sold yet, so how can they attract fish if they don't release some material.

After the finished product of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" came out, Li Tao thought about taking the finished product to the major TV stations to sell it, but Wang Xuan felt that this was too passive, so it was better to turn passive into active and let Yu'er come to the door.

It's not a good idea to have to go door-to-door to sell a film every time you finish filming a TV series. It's best to let the industry form a subjective consensus: Tianhai's production must be a high-quality product.The film and television series filmed by Tianhai must be grabbed.

To put it bluntly, it is hunger marketing.

Sure enough, the fish was hooked.

The fastest hook is Ludong Satellite TV.
