This star is wrong

Chapter 211 "Wulin Biography" is finalized, and the front is hard and "Blood Rain Jianghu"

Two days passed.

Tong Fei made an appointment for a dinner and introduced Fang Xing to Penguin Video's executives.

Feifan Entertainment and Penguin Video have an in-depth cooperative relationship, and have cooperated with "Rising Star" for many seasons.

Therefore, Tong Fei is very familiar with the top management of Penguin Video.

With her introduction, it will be much easier to talk about cooperation, at least they will not encounter difficulties like Feng Changhao.

Since we are talking about the broadcast of "Wulin Biography".

Fang Xing naturally called He Rongchang and Yan Lan to have dinner with the top executives of Penguin Video.

On the day of the dinner.

Fang Xing took Qiao Yinghong and had afternoon tea with Tong Fei first.

Regarding the cooperation in the latest season of "Star of Tomorrow", we still need to have an interview.

Feifan Entertainment will produce a season of "Tomorrow's Star" every year, with male and female groups separated.

Therefore, last year's audition was for the men's team, and this year it is for the women's team.

In order to be able to get the song promised by Fang Xing, Tong Fei brought all the contracts.

When the afternoon tea was almost finished, Tong Fei took out the contract: "This is a song invitation contract. After you sign it, you owe me a song. The advance payment is 2 million. Follow-up songs will be divided according to the market ratio. 50%, for the singing part, I will make the decision for the limited group, I don’t want any points, is that okay?”

Fang Xing said with a smile: "This is so inappropriate, it makes it seem like I've been squeezing the singer."

Tong Fei nodded and smiled: "Yes, you are squeezing. But you don't know how many singers in the music world want to squeeze you."

Of course, the limited group can still earn the other 50% by commercially performing songs.

Therefore, as long as the song becomes popular, the limited group really does not lose money, but makes a lot of money.

Fang Xing readily signed the song invitation contract and reached this cooperation.

Tong Fei went on to say: "Although you won't come to be a mentor, this year's "Rising Star" still needs you to start. At the beginning of the first episode, just perform on a stage, no problem?"

This time Tong Fei helped, and the favor was repaid.

Fang Xing nodded in agreement and said, "The opening performance is fine."

Tong Fei continued: "When will the girl group song you prepared be finalized? If possible, I want to use this song as the theme song of this season's program. From the first issue, let the members participating in the audition practice singing."

Fang Xing thought about it, and replied, "I'll send you a demo in two days, you should listen to it first."

"Okay." Tong Fei didn't expect to be so fast, and her mood improved.

……

After afternoon tea, Fang Xing and Tong Fei went to dinner together.

At the dinner.

Tong Fei helped to introduce: "This is Li Xueying, the vice president of Penguin Online Video, Mr. Li, who is mainly responsible for the production and purchase of drama series and movies."

"Mr. Li, hello." Fang Xing stood up and shook hands with Li Xueying.

After everyone is seated.

Li Xueying gave Fang Xing a thumbs up, and praised: "Last year's "Tomorrow's Star", I chased it all the way, it was great."

"Mr. Li is too much for the award." Fang Xing said modestly.

"I heard that there is also a collaboration in the latest season of "Rising Star"?" Li Xueying chatted casually.

"Yes, a group song is prepared for the limited group." Fang Xing replied with a nod.

Tong Fei added: "I'm going to use this song as a reward for forming a limited group. Now the entire music world wants to invite Fang Xing to sing. I'm jumping in the line."

Everyone chatted for a while, and gradually got to the point.

Li Xueying took the initiative to take out a Penguin Video selection rating form, and said: "The selection department has already watched your "Wulin Biography".

"How should I say it? In terms of quality, the rating is A.

"However, the current market response for sitcoms is mediocre, and the person in charge of the film selection department thinks that a B-grade may be more suitable.

"I watched the movie, and I really like it, so the final rating is A."

He Rongchang and Yan Lan were very satisfied when they heard the rating.

When an A-level drama is broadcast, the video platform will provide promotional resources, and there will definitely be recommendations on the homepage of the video platform.

Fang Xing didn't express his opinion immediately, but asked, "Are you only at A level?"

Li Xueying, vice president of Penguin Online Video, nodded and confirmed: "Yes, it can only be A-level at present."

Fang Xing then asked: "If the episode is broadcast, the response will be very good?"

Li Xueying was not surprised by the other party's reaction.

In fact.

For many independently produced series, the main creative team thinks that the series will be popular, and it will explode.

This has been ridiculed as one of the three major illusions in the film and television industry.

However, the daily job of the selection department of Penguin Video is to grade the dramas to be broadcast, and the number of readings is very large. According to the comprehensive statistics, there are very few films that the selection department misread, perhaps less than one in a thousand.

Besides, Penguin Video's film selection department gave "Wulin Biography" a high rating.

After all, this is a drama with B-level investment, and if it can get an A-level rating, it is actually considered a jump.

Li Xueying thought about it, and promised: "We will give "Wulin Biography" more promotional resources, and try our best to increase the popularity."

Fang Xing then asked: "Does the penguin video want to be broadcast exclusively?"

Li Xueying nodded: "Yes, solo broadcast."

Fang Xing thought about it and asked, "What if it's a non-exclusive broadcast?"

"This one……"

Li Xueying thought about it for a moment, and replied: "Although Mr. Tong and I are very familiar, but when we talk about cooperation with the company, we should talk about how to talk about it, right?"

Fang Xing nodded: "Of course, business is business."

Li Xueying continued: "So, if you choose a non-exclusive broadcast, then our platform will not give promotion resources, this is an industry rule, and other video platforms are the same.

"Besides, if it is not an exclusive broadcast, the account sharing ratio is only 50%, which is a rigid rule.

"What's more, for non-exclusive dramas, the platform will not provide promotional resources, so even if the drama series is launched, the popularity will be very low.

"If you look through the film libraries of major video platforms, you will know that there are many dramas with only tens of thousands of views and more than 10,000 views every year.

"It's just that these dramas will never appear in the public eye, so they are usually invisible."

Fang Xing knew she was telling the truth.

The contracts of the three major video platforms for non-exclusive dramas are similar.

Fang Xing asked again: "I heard that Penguin Video has a broadcast contract with dynamic ratings, right?"

When Li Xueying heard this, she nodded with a smile and replied: "Indeed, there is, but that contract is rarely used, and it is not a regular contract. Signing the contract will be much more cumbersome."

The so-called dynamic rating contract is to dynamically rate episodes according to the number of episodes played.

On the Penguin video platform.

There is an approximate number of episodes played, and a conversion table for ratings.

Under normal circumstances, an A-level drama series must have an average broadcast volume of 1000 million to qualify.

The average broadcast volume of S-level drama series will reach 4000 million.

S+ drama is 6000 million.

Of course, this is only an approximate figure.

Penguin Video does have a broadcast contract with dynamic ratings, but the required playback volume is not the three figures.

Because Penguin Video is broadcasting an A-level drama, it is not looking forward to this drama reaching 1000 million average views, but hoping that this drama will have better data, the higher the better.

Therefore, for dynamic rating contracts, the signed data is higher than the passing data, usually twice the playback volume.

In other words.

After signing a dynamic rating contract, if you want to reach the A-level standard, then it is not 1000 million average views, but 2000 million.

If you want to reach the S level, it is not 4000 million views, but 8000 million views.

By analogy, the average playback volume reaches 1.2 million to be promoted to the S+ level.

If the average playback volume cannot reach 2000 million, then it will not even reach the A level, and will fall to the B level.

The reality is that there are so many TV dramas broadcast on the three major video platforms every year, and the average broadcast volume can really reach 2000 million, only a hundred or so, and they are basically big productions of A-level and S-level or above.

No one in a million TV dramas with B-level investment wants to get an average broadcast volume of more than 2000 million.

Penguin Video is not engaged in charity, and will not send money to the producer for no reason.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Penguin Video will not suffer losses when signing this kind of dynamic rating contract, but will earn more.

Li Xueying added: "If you sign a dynamic rating contract, if you rate it according to the number of broadcasts, you may fall to the B level or even lower. You have to think about it."

After serious consideration, Fang Xing said, "Two options, the first one is to sign a non-exclusive broadcast. After the Penguin video is broadcast, it will not affect our cooperation with other platforms.

"The second is the exclusive broadcast of Penguin Video, with dynamic ratings, but only the exclusive broadcast rights on the network platform."

When Tong Fei heard Fang Xing's two proposals, she frowned and hesitated to speak.

The shows she produced are all broadcast exclusively on Penguin Video, so she knows very well how difficult it is for a show to meet the requirements of a dynamic rating contract.

She wanted to persuade Fang Xing to sign the A-level exclusive broadcast contract.

However, seeing Fang Xing's expression, she swallowed the words again, and sighed in her heart: It's good for young people to be aggressive, and they will naturally become calmer after more experience.

As vice president of Penguin Online Video, Li Xueying doesn't really care what kind of contract she signs. Anyway, Penguin Video won't lose money, it's just the difference between earning more and earning less.

However, Li Xueying was quite puzzled by the second half of the sentence of the second plan: "What does it mean to only sign the exclusive rights of the online platform?"

Fang Xing smiled casually, and replied: "Actually, it's nothing, I just thought that if there is a TV station that wants to broadcast it, I can work hard."

Usually TV stations don't want dramas that are broadcast on the Internet.

There is only a very small probability that some local stations will purchase the broadcasting rights of individual webcasts at a lower price.

Li Xueying thought for a moment, and replied: "Okay. Since you are sure to sign the dynamic rating contract, then do as you wish, and you can come to sign the contract the day after tomorrow.

"In general dynamic rating contracts, platform promotion resources are also given according to the number of broadcasts.

"However, for Mr. Tong's sake, the initial promotional resources will be provided directly according to the standards of A-level dramas."

"Thank you." Fang Xing expressed his gratitude.

After the chat, the cooperation plan was finalized.

Although Penguin Video gave "Wulin Biography" an A rating, it did not meet Fang Xing's expectations.

However, the vice president of Penguin Video is very sincere.

She basically agreed to the conditions she raised.

After the negotiation, the exclusive broadcast contract was officially signed on the third day.

"Wulin Biography" is officially scheduled to be aired in the summer vacation, which is on par with "Blood Rain Jianghu".

Originally, Fang Xing didn't have to snipe "Blood Rain Jianghu", it could be broadcast in other schedules.

However, Penguin Video also has a say in the broadcast time.

The marketing department of Penguin Video believes that fighting "Blood Rain Jianghu", no matter what the result is, can increase the popularity of "Wulin Biography".

What Penguin Video's marketing department wants is popularity and traffic, as long as it is not illegal, it will use any means.

Moreover, since you want to fight in the ring, you have to fight thoroughly.

The marketing department of Penguin Video suggested that on the same day as "Blood Rain Jianghu", the topic should be full and the popularity high.

Fang Xing naturally didn't have to be afraid, Penguin video wanted to be broadcast at this time, then it would be at this time.

Finally, "Wulin Biography" and "Blood Rain Jianghu" are both scheduled to be broadcast on Friday, July 7th.

Fang Xing Studio and Penguin Video officially announced the launch date.

Feifan Entertainment and other official microblogs helped forward it.

As soon as the news came out, a stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Regarding the fight in "Wulin Biography" and "Blood Rain Jianghu", it was fired again and rushed to the hot search list.

Numerous fans and entertainers commented under the topic:
[Fuck!This is really about to fight. 】

[B-level small drama, head-to-head with S-level big productions, isn't it suitable? 】

[I figured it out, don't care if you can win or not, first fill up the topic, stir up the heat, and eat traffic first. 】

[Isn't this just Porcelain? 】

[Will this be Li Siqi's comeback?What was lost on "Singing Voice" will be brought back on the TV series. 】

[Very likely, I heard that "Wulin Biography" has not only 40 episodes, but 80 episodes. With a B-level investment of more than 4000 million, 30 or 40 episodes of web dramas are enough, and he even made 80 episodes. How bad is that? 】

the other side.

Under the promotional Weibo of "Blood Rain Jianghu", there are cheers from traffic fans such as Li Siqi and Chen Wenhan:

[The broadcast will start soon, so looking forward to it.Si Qi's ancient costume, the way she holds a knife, is really handsome. 】

[Chen Wenhan is also very handsome, and the way he played the violin on "Laughing Weekend" really killed me. 】

After finalizing.

Fang Xing played all three songs of "Wulin Biography".

The opening song "Long Time No See" was written, composed and sung by Bruce Lee.

The ending song "Xia Ke Xing" was written by Yu Xia, composed by Liu Tieying, and sung by Yu Xia and Bruce Lee.

There is also an episode "Jianghu" written by Liu Tieying, composed and sung.

The three songs all have their own characteristics. When "Wulin Biography" was on the air when they were on Earth, these songs were also very popular.

Released together with the three songs at the same time, there is also the trailer of "Wulin Biography".

The trailer came out.

The fun people who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement are even happier:
[What the hell is this?Fang Xing really wrote and acted on his own, and he was the number one male. 】

[Although you sing very well, are you sure you can act? 】

[For the sake of "Blue and White Porcelain", I will contribute one view to the first episode, but that's all I can do.If it's hot enough to my eyes, no matter how good your singing is, I won't order the second episode. 】

[Small investment, cross-border singers, self-written and self-acted, these elements add up, I dare not click on it, let's see the reviews.If the pod scores more than 5, I'll consider taking another look. 】

[The pods are based on a 10-point scale, and 5 points are the only value. Is this requirement too low? 】

[You can't ask too much for dramas written and acted by singers.To be honest, as far as the stills of the trailer are concerned, the image is still handsome. 】

[This show might break Dou Pod's record of 2.1 points. 】

[Can your opponent wake up a little more confident?Although it is cross-border, the screenwriter of the Spring Festival Gala sketch "Hello, Li Huanying" is Fang Xing himself, and he even acted in this sketch himself.Can't the quality of the Spring Festival Gala sketches give you a little bit of confidence? 】

【That's right.Anyway, I have confidence in this show, so I dare not say it will be a big hit.At least it should be a good sitcom, which I'm definitely going to watch anyway. 】
