Chapter 142 Interstellar Filmmaking (25)
Liu Yinxiu returned to the dormitory like a wandering soul, climbed onto the bed mechanically, and then stared at the terminal in a daze.
After a difficult struggle, he sneakily pulled the bed curtain and opened the first episode of "Republic of China Literary Masters" on the light computer.
This one watch lasted for a whole day and a night.
Although his body was already very tired, his spirit was very excited. He didn't want to waste time sleeping, and just wanted to keep watching.
He wanted to see what kind of ending these idealists who were either brave and fearless or confused would have.
He cried many times, and his head was dizzy, but he was still moved to tears by the plot.
Damn, this man of Old Scenery is so good! How did he take such a good picture?
When he thought about the fact that he had personally torn up Old Scenery before, Liu Yinxiu felt a kind of embarrassment like a brain-destroying.
After tearing up someone, he became a fan of him again. Liu Yinxiu himself felt that he was quite sick after thinking about this series of operations.
... Now his fan pretending to be a hater has been completely confirmed.
By noon the next day, Liu Yinxiu had watched the seventeenth episode. He said to himself that he would go to bed after watching this episode, otherwise he would really die suddenly.
Just as he was crying and sneezing, the curtain was pulled open, and his roommate smiled obscenely, "Porn? Let's watch it together!"
Liu Yinxiu was frightened and sneezed.
Roommate:...
Liu Yinxiu:...
"...Fuck, you actually cried while watching porn? Wait...it looks familiar, hey hey hey, isn't this "Records of Literary Masters in the Republic of China"? "The roommate looked at Liu Yinxiu with more and more weird eyes: "You masturbate with this movie?"
Liu Yinxiu roared: "Fuck you! You masturbate with this movie!"
"Then why are you pulling the curtain for no reason?"
"...I like it, it's none of your business!"
"By the way, didn't you go to celebrate your girlfriend's birthday? Why are you back?"
The roommate looked Innocent: "My birthday is over. If I don't come back, do I have to live in the girls' dormitory?"
After being yelled at by Liu Yinxiu, the roommate touched his nose and was not angry. Instead, he said expectantly: "The finale of "Republic of China Literary Masters" will be broadcast tonight. We can watch it together!"
Liu Yinxiu blinked slowly and repeated mechanically: "The finale?"
"Yes, don't you know? Today will broadcast 20 episodes, the finale."
"What time?"
"Eight o'clock."
Liu Yinxiu stood there for a moment, immediately put away the light brain, and began to take off clothes.
"??? What are you doing? I'm a straight man!"
Liu Yinxiu's face was dark: "Go to hell, I stayed up all night, I'll sleep first, and you must call me when the time comes!"
...
Mo Mingrui has been fidgeting all afternoon.
Today is the finale of "Republic of China Literary Masters", although he has known the ending for a long time-it must be their party that won, otherwise how did their China come?
But knowing the ending does not conflict with his desire to see the ending.
Probably because too many people died, too many people.
That is the dawn that tens of millions of people will never see until they die.
So he must at least take a serious look at this dawn.
Father Mo walked out of the bedroom and asked: "Xiao Rui, is today the finale of "Republic of China Literary Masters"? "
"Ah? Are you also following this drama?"
"Your uncle Li recommended it to me. He said that today is the finale and asked me to watch it."
"Then let's watch it together tonight." Mo Mingrui smiled: "Mom is not here, we can open two bottles of beer."
Father Mo's eyes lit up, "Then it's settled!"
...
While waiting for the finale of "Republic of China Literary Masters", Hua Xiasheng took the time to assign a homework to his classmates.
[Hua Xiasheng: Today is the finale of "Republic of China Literary Masters". Please write a reading experience of no less than 1,000 words after watching it, and hand it in on Tuesday afternoon. ]
...
Just after seven o'clock, the three members of Song Qi's family sat in front of the laptop.
Father Song: "You should watch more TV series like "Republic of China Literary Masters" and less idol dramas that are not nutritious."
Mother Song: "It's rare that your taste is similar to ours. We haven't watched TV series together for a long time."
Song Qi: "This proves that the audience of good TV series is not divided by age. If the TV series you like to watch are as good as "Republic of China Literary Masters", I will definitely watch it every day."
...
The editorial department of Qijiang Video Network is brightly lit.
Qianhe sat in her seat, clenched her hands, and began to shake her legs unconsciously.
It is now five minutes to eight in the evening. If it were in the past, the editors would have gone home after get off work, but now the editorial department is full. Even the editor-in-chief stayed in the office and did not go home.
This is not compulsory overtime.
Everyone is obliged to stay.
They stayed here just to know one answer - the ending broadcast volume and sales volume of "Republic of China Literary Masters"!
Qianhe is so nervous because of this.
As the strongest dark horse of this summer season, the ratings of "Republic of China Literary Masters" are naturally rising. The 19th episode updated yesterday had a maximum real-time online number of 40 million! One episode earned 150 million.
Moreover, during the broadcast of "Republic of China Literary Masters", the number of installation data of their Qijiang Video Network app increased by 5 million compared with usual. In other words, "Republic of China Literary Masters" has attracted at least 5 million new users for Qijiang Video Network.
You must know that "Republic of China Literary Masters" is a paid TV series!
Currently, the TV series with the highest ratings on their website is "Earth Rise", a science fiction film with excellent production and free broadcast. The average number of online viewers is only 10 million, and the highest number of online viewers is 50 million.
Now video websites are flourishing, excellent film and television works are emerging in an endless stream, and the audience has more entertainment, more choices, and more tastes. Even as the leader in the industry, Qijiang Video Network, TV series with more than 10 million viewers per episode are rare.
So "Republic of China Literary Masters Chronicle" can have such a brilliant performance, and I don't know how many peers are jealous.
In Qianhe's view, "Republic of China Literary Masters Chronicle" is a hen that lays golden eggs. This hen has created hundreds of millions of profits for their website.
Qianhe is just a newcomer. With the help of "Republic of China Literary Masters Chronicle", the editor-in-chief has hinted to him not long ago that he will be promoted to a team leader next year.
Although no one in the editorial department said it, Qianhe knew that his other colleagues, like him, were secretly looking forward to today being a day that would break the historical record.
Because of the poor promotion in the early stage, although it rose in the later stage, the average viewership of "Republic of China Literary Masters" was only 15 million, which is still far from the outstanding performance of "Earth Rise".
However, "Republic of China Literary Masters" can compete for the highest real-time viewership!
Yesterday, the highest number of viewers was 40 million. Will it be possible to surpass the 50 million of "Earth Rise" today?
Qianhe has never felt that these five minutes are so long.
At 8 o'clock, the finale of "Republic of China Literary Masters" was officially broadcast.
At 8:05, editor-in-chief Xu Yan called the technical department. She held her breath and her voice was tense: "What is the real-time ratings?"
"The real-time viewership is 35 million."
Xu Yan's heart skipped a beat.
This result cannot be said to be bad, but it is not as good as she imagined.
As a paid TV series, "Republic of China Literary Masters" has a free ten minutes in the early stage. During these ten minutes, the audience is the largest. When it comes to the paid stage, a small number of viewers will be lost, and the overall number of viewers is on a downward trend.
Generally speaking, the highest number of online viewers of paid TV series is generally concentrated in the free stage of the first 10 minutes.
The current number of viewers of "Republic of China Literary Masters" is 35 million. It is hard to say whether it can maintain 30 million in the paid stage.
Xu Yan comforted herself that although it was impossible to break the record, this result was already exceptionally outstanding.
The split they negotiated with "Republic of China Literary Masters" was 2:8, that is, their platform would take 20% of the subscription profit, which is also the consistent split condition for real TV series offered by their platform. They are not just for the money, they will promote the work through their own publicity channels.
To be honest, she was not optimistic about "Republic of China Literary Masters" at the beginning. It should be said that no one in the entire editorial department (including the editor-in-chief of "Old Scenery") was optimistic about this TV series.
Li Jianye, a director who only shoots low-cost art films, Old Scenery, although talented, has never directed a real movie. The script is not a popular novel, but the two of them are original. To make matters worse, the actors are not famous, and most of them are old actors who are nearly 50 years old and have wrinkles on their faces. In addition, the crew is so poor that they don’t even have money for publicity. With all these unfavorable factors added together, ten out of ten people think that this drama will fail.
But "Records of Literary Masters of the Republic of China" is a hit.
Recalling the past, Xu Yan had to admit that Old Scenery is a bit weird.
This person seems to have a bloody physique. Since the broadcast of "Records of Literary Masters of the Republic of China", it has been accompanied by various controversies, from directors to actors, there are big and small black spots, but in the end, the drama has become more and more popular. Those controversies not only did not sink "Records of Literary Masters of the Republic of China", but turned into traffic, making it take off!
And their company also took advantage of the east wind of "Records of Literary Masters of the Republic of China" to make two or three hundred million yuan and make a lot of money. Not long ago, Xu Yan went to the company headquarters for a meeting, and the chairman was so kind to her.
"If the number of viewers exceeds 40 million, give me a call." Although Xu Yan said so, she didn't have much hope.
Xu Yan walked out of the editor-in-chief's office and met countless pairs of bright and expectant eyes. She pretended to be relaxed and said: "Just now, the technical department said that after five minutes of broadcasting, the number of real-time viewers was 35 million."
Qianhe opened his eyes wide and felt a strong dizziness.
The greater the hope before, the greater the disappointment.
The editors discussed in twos and threes: "After all, it is a paid TV series, and this result is already very good."
"Although it is not as good as "Earth Rise", the highest number of real-time viewers is 40 million, which can already enter the top five in the history of our website."
"This time our company made a lot of money, making 200 to 300 million this time. Xiao Qian, your bonus this year must be at least six figures."
Qianhe understood all these, but he still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Along the way, "Records of Literary Masters of the Republic of China" has made many impossibilities possible. He thought that this time it could create a miracle.
Alas, think about it. If it is a miracle, how can it happen so easily? He should not be too greedy. He is a new editor who is extremely lucky to have such a cash cow. He should learn to be content.
Xu Yan said: "It's so late, don't wait here, go back."
The editors packed up their things and prepared to leave. Qianhe sat at the table without moving.
"Why don't you leave?"
Chizuru shook his head, "I'll wait."
Xu Yan smiled and didn't say much. She thought for a while and said, "I'll stay with you too."
"No, you can go first, I will go back soon."
Xu Yan smiled and said, "I have nothing to do when I go home. I happen to have some unfinished work, so I'll spend some time with you."
She added: "I told the technical department to call me if the number of viewers exceeds 40 million. Maybe the call will come later."
Qianzhe forced a smile, but no longer dared to look forward to it.
Why stay?
He doesn't know yet.
Anyway, it's less than an hour, so there's not much time to waste. He has also been following "Chronicles of Literary Heroes of the Republic of China". Today is the finale and he cannot miss it.
The editing room fell into silence. Qianzhe looked at the bright screen, feeling confused and unable to understand the plot at all.
At half past eight, a melodious phone ring suddenly came from the editor's office. Chizuru was so excited that she even began to wonder if she had heard it wrong.
"Really, 45 million?!" Xu Yan exclaimed, "Are you kidding me?"
"Okay, I get it."
Chizuru was completely stunned.
Xu Yan's high heels clicked: "Xiao Qian, the technical department said that the current number of real-time online viewers is 45 million! The number is still rising! Maybe it can really exceed 50 million!"
Chizuru met the editor's excited eyes, and fireworks set off in her mind.
He was so excited that his whole body was trembling, "Forty-five million! Forty-five million!" He rubbed his hands in excitement, "There's still half an hour! Maybe..."
Xu Yan answered: "Maybe we can really break the record!"
The next half hour seemed like an eternity.
Qianzhe walked around anxiously in the editing room. Fireworks were set off in his mind, and he was furious at other times. His mood was up and down, excited and apprehensive.
...He even felt the urge to pee.
At 8:55, the phone ring finally broke the uncomfortable silence. Xu Yan took a deep breath, answered the call, and played the external voice.
A second later, excited screams spread in the silent editorial office: "Fifty-one million! Broken record!! No. 1 on the entire website!!"
Xu Yan screamed, and this steady and mature workplace veteran was jumping up and down like a little girl.
Chizuru also danced excitedly and let out fragmentary roars.
Miracle!
A miracle really happened! !
"Chronicles of Literary Heroes of the Republic of China" did it!
Awesome! ! !
"Chronicles of Literary Heroes of the Republic of China" abruptly broke the convention of paid TV series, and the number of viewers achieved reverse growth! This is extremely rare in China!
…
Le Jing was at the filming crew's final party when the phone rang.
After they finished filming last week, the crew took a week off because they were overworked, and the wrapping party was moved to this week.
Le Jing put the red wine glass aside and answered the phone: "Hello?"
Qianhe shouted hoarsely: "Fifty-two million! The highest number of real-time viewers is 52 million! It broke the record of "Earth Rise"!"
He paused happily, with smile lines appearing at the corners of his eyes, "I'll tell them, they will be very happy."
He walked to the middle, turned off the music, clapped his hands, and said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me."
Countless eyes were focused on the young man in the center. The young man pursed his lips and chuckled, showing a meaningful and clear smile, "The editor just called me. The highest number of real-time viewers of our "Republic of China Literary Chronicles" is five Twelve million, setting a new website record.”
Zhang Ting gasped, "Five-star coins per episode, 52 million, that's..."
Huang Tingting shouted excitedly: "Two hundred and fifty million star coins!"
Li Jianye suppressed his excitement and asked: "How much is the overall box office?"
"The website hasn't compiled statistics yet, so I did the calculations myself," Le Jing's smile deepened, "So far, the preliminary estimate is that the overall box office is 2 billion."
"Two billion?!" Although Li Jianye had already had a premonition, he still felt dizzy when he heard this huge number.
Not to mention 2 billion, the total box office of all his previous film and television works is not even 500 million!
"Everyone has worked hard during this period. Depending on their contribution during this period, everyone here will receive a bonus of varying amounts." Lejing paused deliberately and deliberately adjusted his appetite before saying: "The minimum is five digits. , up to...seven figures."
"Ahhhh!! Long live the director!"
"Awesome!!! I can buy a house!!"
Zhang Ting even rushed up to give Le Jing a big hug and kissed him hard: "Brother Jing, I love you to death!"
Le Jing pushed him away in disgust and wiped the saliva on his face, "Aren't you disgusting?"
"Hey hey hey, we are all straight men, what are we afraid of?" Zhang Ting looked at Le Jing with bright eyes, "Brother Jing, tell me, is my dividend a six-digit number?"
Le Jing nodded slightly.
"Long live!" Zhang Ting pounced on him again, but this time he didn't succeed and was quickly dodged by Le Jing, who was already prepared.
Their hard work has been rewarded beyond their expectations, and there is nothing more joyful than this.
Encouraged by Zhang Ting and Huang Tingting, everyone began to pour wine into others. Some people were so drunk that they still held the wine glass and refused to let go.
Le Jing smiled as he watched the crowd revelry. Someone stood beside him in the corner of his eyes.
"Why didn't you play with them?"
Zhang Yanfang smiled, "There is a question they want to know, but they are too embarrassed to ask you. I took advantage of my good relationship with you and simply became the representative."
"What is the question?"
Zhang Yanfang turned her head and stared at Le Jing, with a trace of barely detectable nervousness in her eyes, "What are your plans next? What are you going to shoot? Or a TV series?"
Le Jing shook his head and replied, "I will make a movie next."
"What kind of movie?" Zhang Yanfang asked eagerly, "Is there a role suitable for me...us?"
The young man smiled, "Of course there is. It should be said that you are a well-deserved leading actor."
Zhang Yanfang was relieved. While talking, he was also curious, "What kind of movie is it? What role do I play?"
"Emperor." The young man's eyes were full of brilliance, "You will play the only female emperor in the history of ancient China."
Zhang Yanfang didn't believe it: "The only female emperor? There was only one female emperor in the history of ancient China? This is impossible, female emperors should be quite common."
"Why do you say that?"
"Look at the European Federation, there were many empresses in their history during the ancient Earth period, all in the same period, and China is about the same."
Le Jing smiled complicatedly: "That's because they are not bound by etiquette."
...
Wu Tianming is a judge of the Starry Sky Award.
The Starry Sky Award holds an awards ceremony in mid-October every year, so the selection activities began at the end of September.
The judges of the awards are all directors with a certain degree of fame on Earth. Wu Tianming's works have also won the Starry Sky Award.
Every year during the award season, the Starry Sky Award Board of Directors will send invitations to some directors in the industry to invite them to participate in the annual selection activities.
Wu Tianming is an old face of the Starry Sky Award jury, and he receives invitations almost every year.
As one of the judges, he has to watch more than a dozen or even dozens of movies every day. If he wants to watch them all, he will definitely not have enough time. So for the works of general newcomers, he only watches the beginning and the end.
But today's movie is different.
This movie called "The Young Marquis of Fenglangjuxu" was recommended by his old friend Director An Yun. For the sake of his old friend, he will also watch the movie carefully.
He still believes in An Yun's taste. It's just that he has never heard of the director's name, and he is most likely a newcomer.
How good can a movie made by a newcomer be? And this is an AI movie.
An Yun's recommendation is not to do a favor, right?
In any case, for the sake of his old friend, he will still watch it carefully.
