Entertainment from Charlotte's Troubles

Chapter 253 The Peak of Web Drama

"The show is a good show, but Xiao Ma doesn't do anything about personnel. My VIP has to unlock the following episodes. One episode costs 27 yuan, and nine episodes cost [-] yuan. I'm stupid."

"Brother, it's okay. In order to watch the hidden corner, I spent 20 yuan to open a VIP, and then spent 27 yuan to unlock the following episodes. I spent 47 yuan before and after."

"Who the hell invented advanced on-demand, talent."

"One thing to say, it's good to watch it in advance. I'd rather spend more money to watch it all at once than wait every day. Besides, VIP customers don't have to worry about it. The episodes are the same as ordinary dramas. VIPs update two episodes a day, and non-VIPs get more episodes. One episode."

After the advance on-demand package came out, there were mixed reviews. Netizens complained and praised it.

Those who are rich naturally feel that tens of dollars don’t matter, and it’s good to spend more money to see it all at once, but most people still can’t accept it.

Ordinary users, VIP users, wealthy users, watching a TV series are all divided into different categories, who will be eliminated?

Netizens complained a lot, and Tencent Video also pretended not to see it, because at this time they had already made a lot of money.

In just one day, relying on advanced on-demand broadcasting, half of the film's funds were recovered, and with the advertising fees added, the cost has already been recovered.

Twelve episodes of The Hidden Corner were released on the first day, with a cumulative broadcast volume of more than one billion, breaking the record for the premiere of Chasing the Murder in the White Night, and the Douban score is also super high.

Nine six!
Unlike ordinary film and television dramas, most of the film and television dramas have high ratings before they are broadcast, but as the follow-up unfinished and poisonous plots, the ratings will gradually decrease, showing a trend of highs and lows.

The Hidden Corner releases twelve episodes at a time, and the audience can watch them all at once, and the ratings are considered very pertinent.

Even if there are more people who watch it later, and some people don't like to watch it, the score will drop by one or two points at most.

In other words, even in the worst case, the Hidden Corner has a score of [-], which is on par with Bai Ye Chasing the Murderer. If word of mouth does not collapse, it may be [-], [-], surpassing Bai Ye Chasing the Murderer.

"It is said that in the past two years, the salary of artists has been high, the production cost of film and television dramas has increased, the produced dramas are not good, and some people say that Xiaoxianrou is not professional, but judging from the situation of Yixin Film and Television, it is not necessarily the fault of actors. Well, the key problem lies with the screenwriters, directors and producers, their dramas are too f*cking bad, and what can be filmed in a dozen episodes is dragged to [-] or [-] episodes."

"I suggest that other TV drama companies learn from it. Look at Yuan Hua. One drama has twelve episodes. How good it is. Jiji has solid content, fast pace, and compact stories. We audiences also enjoy watching it."

"A suggestion to the State Administration of Optoelectronics, limit the number of TV episodes, preferably not more than [-] episodes, really, it's too fucking watery."

"Although the 59rd edition of Legend of the Condor Heroes had 25 episodes, they were divided into three parts, with an average of 30 episodes per episode. The 43th edition of Journey to the West had [-] episodes, the [-] edition of Dream of the Red Chamber had more than [-] episodes, and the [-] edition of Outlaws of the Marsh [-] episodes, I don’t understand, it’s also an adaptation of a novel with millions of words, why can I finish shooting thirty or forty episodes before, but now I can only shoot the beginning.”

“Before 20 years, there were very few dramas with more than 30 episodes. Most of them were more than 30 episodes. Multiple episodes, 40 episodes are the norm, and some have [-] or [-] episodes, in order to make money, the producers are really crazy."

"The more episodes you sell, the more money you can sell. We audiences can understand, but you must at least have content. One episode of your uncle's will be filmed as two episodes. Who will watch the other batches!"

Actors’ remuneration has skyrocketed, and the corresponding production costs are high. In order to make money, the producers can only shoot a few more episodes to make money. The common people are used to them. Until the past two years, seeing the white night chasing the murderer and the hidden corner, everyone is not happy. .

"You can also watch the short play, and it's very exciting. Why didn't anyone shoot it before?"

"Who are you going to bury with those long, smelly foot wraps?"

Netizens' complaints did not attract the attention of film and television companies in the market. What are netizens?
As a producer, netizens have to watch whatever drama they make.

What, you said we are arrogant, sorry, that's how we do things, if you don't like it, don't watch it!

……

The popularity of the hidden corner lasted for a week. The image of Yuan Hua and Zhang Dongsheng was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even Zhang Songwen and Wang Lin in the play became popular. The two old actors became popular again, and Li Xin also became famous.

Among them, Zhang Songwen is the most popular. His superb acting skills and subtle performances contributed a visual feast to the audience.

After the broadcast in the hidden corner, he was invited by Shonan Satellite TV to participate in I am an actor variety show and act as a mentor in it.

Since the birth of an actor was created by Tencent, other platforms quickly copied it with one click. They found out that I am an actor. Please take the actor's place. When the actor comes and waits for the show, Brother Xiaoma can't even sue.

Plagiarism in variety shows is inherently difficult to define, and it is normal to have lawsuits for several years.

You said that someone copied your actor's birth, and they also said that you copied Charlotte's Huaxia's good voice.

"Teacher Yuan, if you have any good ideas recently, you can set the price as you like."

Yuan Hua was sitting at home, and the Tencent Video Variety Show Department called and opened their mouths to ask for ideas, which shows that their life is not very easy.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm an actor, not a variety show planner." Yuan Hua rubbed his brows helplessly.

This is not the first person to look for him. Since the birth of the actor, Shonan Satellite TV, Tomato TV, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, and iQi platform have all asked him to plan variety shows.

They are all bosses, no one can afford to offend, and he can't scold his mother.

Every day, he explained painstakingly, and his words were almost exhausted.

"Ms. Yuan, you have not cooperated with our platform once or twice, please help, there are too many shameless plagiarists in the market recently, and the birth of an actor may not wait until the second season to be consumed."

"As long as you can come up with a birth project that is not weaker than that of an actor, I guarantee that the salary will not be lower than that of an actor's birth."

Yuan Hua was speechless, saying that he is a shameless plagiarist, have you forgotten how you got rich?

"Mr. Zhang, I'm really sorry. It's not about the money. I'm just an actor."

"5000 million yuan, Mr. Yuan, do you think it's okay?"

"I……"

"6000 million, please!"

In the study room, Jing Tian came out with a director's self-study book, sat on the sofa with bare feet, and read it while eating an apple.

Seeing this, Yuan Hua moved his gaze, and said to the other side: "Do you know about the Asia Rising Star Guidance Project?"

"I know, Ning Hao's crazy stone is where he got the funds from."

The Asian Rising Star Director Program was initiated by Liu Dehua in 500. He paid [-] million out of his own pocket and provided it to six Asian directors to shoot movies. Ning Hao was one of the six directors back then.

However, there is no second phase of the Asia Rising Star Guide Program, because it is a private organization after all, and Liu Dehua has limited funds, so it is impossible to make tens of millions every few years.

Second, after the Rising Star Director Program, the country launched a support program for young directors, selecting five directors each year, and each supporting a million project start-up funds.

Compared with Liu Dehua's six selections in Asia, the domestic young director support plan has more benefits for Chinese people.

"How about the birth of a director?" Yuan Hua said: "The model is the same as the birth of an actor, but the students are replaced by directors, and the mentor invites the producer, the boss of the film and television company, and competes with each other through different short films of the directors, and finally competes for the top three, No. No. 1 will give 5000 million support funds, No. 2 will give 3000 million, and No. 3 will give 1000 million."

Hearing this idea, the person in charge of the Variety Department was very excited. Compared with the birth of an actor, the birth of a director is also a good way to play it.

If the program is released, not to mention young directors, I am afraid that even those old directors will be tempted.

As a director, the most lacking thing is funds. Now that someone gives money to make a movie, why not do it, the risk is all borne by the program team, where can such a good thing be found.

However, Yuan Hua's last few words were poured down like a basin of cold water.

How much is the support fund for the top three directors combined, [-] million!

Who can stand this!
"Ahem, Teacher Yuan, I think 11000 million is a bit too much, or No. 2500 million, No. 3100 million, No. [-] million, what do you think?"

"In the current market, what can we do with 800 million yuan? It's not enough to hire an actor." Leaning on the sofa, Yuan Hua raised his legs: "Let's not talk about 100 million yuan, which is probably only enough to buy a box lunch."

"In the last show, No. 3 took 100 million and returned the director's support fund. It's a shame to say it. Who dares to come?"

Jing Tian's book had already been closed, and she was listening to Yuan Hua's phone call with her ears perked up, her beautiful eyes wandering, she didn't know what to think.

"Teacher Yuan, you can't do it otherwise. The directors who can participate are all poor and not well-known. If [-] million yuan is put in their hands, [-]% of it will be ruined. We can't get it back."

The support fund, this money is not given to the director for free, but just to help the director cover the bottom line and take risks.

If the film earns, the support fund will be returned to the program team according to a certain percentage. If the film is ruined, then it will be ruined.

The program group plays the role of an investor.

The directors who can come to this show must not be famous directors, famous directors are not short of this little money, while non-famous directors are limited in strength, they may not be able to make money, not necessarily, it is very likely that they will not be able to make money.

Leaning on the sofa, Yuan Hua propped his head on his right hand and said calmly: "I didn't say that all of the money will be paid by you. As an actor, I also want to contribute to the film and television industry, so that audiences can see good movies and young directors can pay for it." There is room for talent.”

"So?" The people from the Variety Department were overjoyed.

"I will contribute 5000 million in support funds."

"Thank you Teacher Yuan, you really..."

"In addition, I want to become one of the investors of the program group, and I will get a share of the program's proceeds."

Are you really not human, the person in charge of the Variety Department complained.

Unfortunately, he thought that Yuan Hua really wanted to give 5000 million to help their program group, feeling that this was investment money.

Gaining both fame and fortune, being a good person and making money at the same time, the abacus is bang bang.

"Teacher Yuan, it's not up to me to decide."

"It's okay, then find someone who can make the decision and talk to me."
