Who are you calling powerful?

In fact, when Wei Yang called Li Jiahang over this time, besides pretending to gossip, he also had a serious business——

"The Temptation of Homecoming"

The last two parts of "Celebrating More Than Years" were filmed at the same time, although the second part had already been filmed during the summer vacation, and post-production started after that.

However, due to the continuous filming of the third season, most of the energy was involved, which resulted in sufficient manpower and people in charge of post-production at that time, and the progress of the latter part of the second season was not as satisfactory.

Currently, Blue Whale is also discussing with Hunan Province and Taiwan to see if it is possible to postpone the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years".

Next year's Spring Festival will be on February 9th. If the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years" opens in January, then there is no need to worry about being affected by the Spring Festival.

But now it seems that the schedule is a bit tight, and the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years" may not be completed in early January.

Even if it is barely done, the time is too tight, which may affect the quality of editing and special effects production, and the publicity and promotion will all collide and fluctuate.

Therefore, if the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years" wants to be launched, the fastest and most suitable time is after the Spring Festival.

But in this way, the advantages of the winter vacation file are not so obvious, and the broadcast period just catches up with the start of work and the start of school season.

Even if the previous work of "Celebrating More Than Years" is popular, these disadvantages can be ignored to the greatest extent, but when dealing with this kind of super ace project that can't be met, who doesn't want to think about perfection and maximize benefits.

Therefore, some people on both sides proposed to move the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years" to the summer file, and then put the third season in 2014 as a new year's drama.

But in this way, the time between the first season is too long, which may affect the momentum accumulated by the previous work.

In addition, although the "Celebrating More Than Years" series is not what it used to be, it has formed a tacit understanding with the above, so there is no need to worry too much about the review, but be careful when sailing for ten thousand years, the world is impermanent, who knows if there will be any accidents.

The past two years happened to be a different day, and there were great changes in all parties. If something went wrong, it would be a lot of fun.

So things froze here!

Whether it is Hunan TV Station or Blue Whale, there are differences.

Some people advocate that the second and third seasons of "Celebrating More Than Years" will be aired after the Spring Festival and in the summer respectively, and it will be completed within half a year.

Some people insist on maximizing profits. Ten-figure projects may be worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars.

Due to special reasons, the first season of "Celebrating More Than Years" was launched in a hurry, resulting in the inability to maximize the benefits. These people don't want to suffer again.

Wei Yang has always believed that the real thing is to get it, and he would rather make less money than take unnecessary risks.

But this matter is not up to him. Even if the internal voice of Blue Whale is suppressed by him, he can't control the Hunan TV station. How to make a decision depends on the directors of the station.

But no matter what, there is no need to think about "Celebrating More Than Years" before the Spring Festival.

Wei Yang means that in January next year, Blue Whale will promote "The Temptation of Going Home".

Since the rise of Wei Yang in charge of Blue Whale, compared to the summer file, the performance of Blue Whale in the winter vacation file is actually more dazzling.

"You Who Came from the Star" is okay, it can only be released at the end of the year, while the first seasons of "East Palace" and "Celebrating More Than Years" are released during the winter vacation and even the Spring Festival.

In other words, from the winter or winter vacation at the end of 2009, there have been blue whale's explosive works.

"My Love from the Stars" in late 2009 and early 2010.

"Eastern Palace" in early 2011.

"Celebrating More Than Years" in early 2012.

It can be said that during the winter and winter vacations of the past three years, Wei Yang has contracted many people's TVs.

In the first year, fried chicken and beer were served on a snowy day. In the second year, the family watched Li Chengyin and Xiaofeng wipe tears on the TV. In the third year, they watched Fan Xian fighting wine.

As for the summer, although there are works such as "Shanshan Is Coming" and "Carat Lover", they are obviously not as popular and impressive as winter and winter vacation.

And now the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years" has froze, but it doesn't mean that Blue Whale has given up the position of winter vacation.

"The Temptation of Going Home" is one of the alternatives!

Compared with the original dog blood, the Blue Whale version of "The Temptation of Going Home" has a more intense style. To put it bluntly, it captures the coolness of revenge Korean dramas.

The scumbags and scumbags should be more coquettish, the hero and other villains are also worse, the heroine is worse in the early stage, and the revenge methods in the later stage should be cruel and cruel, digging deep into the routine of wanting to promote before suppressing.

Of course, due to the restrictions of domestic TV platforms, dark revenge methods such as killing and framing cannot be used, but they can sow dissension, business wars, and report Barabara.

Revenge themes like "The Temptation of Going Home" were originally preferred by young audiences, otherwise they would not have become popular again, and even became Internet memes.

It's just that the original screenwriter and producer is Jian Zhongxin, the guru of Leiju. This guy's style of work just likes to mix some ridiculous plots, and he is very popular among middle-aged and elderly women.

Blue Whale is different from his approach, and must consider the perception of young audiences, which is the company's largest audience.

As I said before, Wei Yang is already prepared that the ratings of "The Temptation of Going Home" will not be as good as the original version, but the webcast and word-of-mouth must be outstanding.

The hero Hong Shixian of this show is starring Li Jiahang, and the plot has been modified. The heroine does not have a new boyfriend, and only licks the dog or friends to help.

After the revenge in the finale, she chose to leave the city and start a new life, which is very individual.

To be honest, Wei Yang thinks this character is very interesting, and he might be very popular later on.

He once wanted Tang Yan to play the role, but this little girl was not lucky. She accepted a silly and sweet drama and had to film "Celebrating More Than Years", and the schedule couldn't be missed.

So Wei Yang let the original version of Choo Ja Hyun play this role.

It just so happened that Wei Yang wanted Liu Shishi to act in "The Wind and Cloud of the Wooden House", and "Legend of Dance and Music" probably has nothing to do with her. This drama can be regarded as compensation for her.

Although this drama was originally owned by Choo Ja Hyun in her previous life...

Second female [You are so flirtatious] Wei Yang gave Liu Yan the role of Ai Li.

Coincidentally, at the time of casting, Wei Yang happened to have a scene with Liu Yan, and was dissatisfied with the actor information sent by the crew, and then saw Liu Yan struggling to button up——

The suit that Clothing made for her was a little small, and it would fall apart easily.

Wei Yang suddenly felt that this role was quite suitable for Liu Yan, who had played many similar green tea sexy girls.

If Liu Yan were to play Ellie, the pajamas scene of the famous scene would not need to be said, just change to a low-cut dress, and it would come alive directly.

Although Liu Yan has gained a wave of popularity because of "Celebrating More Than Years", her current main job is still being a host, and she is not too picky about the roles in the film.

Not to mention, Blue Whale's drama still has gold content. Although the second female lead has some flaws, it can also attract many artists.

At least Liu Yan didn't mean to dislike it, instead she accepted it cheerfully, and felt that she was lucky to "pick up" this role.

Choo Ja Hyun is not very famous at the moment, but foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures, and with the name of a popular Korean actress, there are not many people who come out to criticize her.

After Li Jiahang's "Celebrating More Than Years", "Love Apartment" and "Soul Ferry", his popularity with the audience is very good, his reputation is not weak, and he can barely be alone.

With the addition of Liu Yan and a few famous supporting roles, "The Temptation of Going Home" has a good line-up, and was successfully awarded the exclusive broadcasting rights by Hunan TV Station at a relatively satisfactory price. Qiyi won.

Blue Whale has cooperated with Sohu, LeTV, Penguin, and Youku before, but this is the first time for iQiyi.

Because this website is more keen on self-produced dramas, many dramas are won through copyright distribution, and exclusive copyrights are rarely bought, which is a bit stingy to put it bluntly.

Blue Whale dramas have always been extremely popular in the market.

LeEco frequently spends a lot of money, and now there is another local tyrant penguin, who looks calm, not as rich and powerful as Boss Jia, but in fact, the bids are scary.

Although Youku does not have a big backer behind it, it is the number one video website in the industry after all, and it has been listed again. It has a relatively solid foundation and frequent exchanges with Blue Whale.

Tudou and Sohu are already on the decline, and occasionally they are willing to spend a wave of money to get back their blood. Sohu, especially, has tasted the sweetness in "East Palace" before. They don't dare to bet on other dramas, but they still have trust in Blue Whale.

This also made it difficult to grab works related to Blue Whale or Wei Yang if you don't have enough money.

So much so that iQiyi suffered repeated setbacks, until this time "The Temptation of Going Home" was not very favored by the outside world, so it gritted its teeth and took it down at a price of 35 million.

It was the end of 2012, and the copyright of webcasting had reached the point of boiling.

The first season of "Celebrating More Than Years" at the beginning of the year refreshed everyone's perception with a single episode of 1.875 million, a total of 75 million.

Immediately afterwards, Dead Girl's "Palace 2" was sold to Penguin for 68.5 million.

Damn it, as soon as the price came out, Wei Yang was so angry that he scolded "Celebrating More Than Years" for being sold too low.

If he had known this earlier, the asking price of "Celebrating More Than Years" was less than 80 million, and he would have fired the person in charge...

But there is one thing to say, the dead girl can sell such a high price, on the one hand, "Gongsuo Xinyu" has become popular.

A phenomenal work + top-notch, the sequel of "Palace" was originally a looted sweet pastry, and it was a dead girl, a popular producer who was second only to Wei Yang, compared to "Celebrating More Than Years" at the time Not too much difference.

On the other hand, Wei Yang gave a wave of assists, "Celebrating More Than Years" sold so high, breaking through the upper limit of the market, other popular works must also follow the trend to increase prices.

What's more, there are still reasons for competition. LeTV has "Celebrating More Than Years", and other websites also want to have hit dramas that can compete, which gives the dead girl a reason to increase the price.

This kind of behavior of "capitalizing the enemy" was not Wei Yang's original intention, but it was unavoidable.

Fortunately, the first season of "Celebrating More Than Years" performed well, and LeEco took 75 million without spending a loss.

However, the poor reputation and mediocre performance of "Gong 2" made the penguins full of blood, and at the same time, it also caused the dead girl's influence on major websites to drop sharply.

His new drama and "Palace 3" wanted to charge such a high price again, but no one would care.

In contrast, "Celebrating More Than Years", the webcast rights for the second and third seasons are still held by Blue Whale, and it is bound to reach new heights.

At the same time, "Celebrating More Than Years" is not the only one that has increased in price. For example, "Chef with a Pot in the Flower Room" and "Carat Lover" produced by Blue Whale in the middle of the year are considered to be the first-line prices in the industry.

The stable performance of these two dramas has further consolidated and strengthened the golden sign of Blue Whale, falling into a virtuous circle.

So even if the not-so-popular "The Temptation of Going Home" made iQiyi "miss", the price of a single episode broke one million, and the total price exceeded 35 million. Many popular dramas outside may not necessarily be sold. this price.

And iQiyi can pick up this omission, saying that several other companies are not optimistic about "The Temptation of Going Home", but the more important thing is that there are better projects.

Everyone's funds were stumbling, only iQiyi felt that it couldn't compete with other websites, so they settled for the next best thing, and won "The Temptation of Going Home", which was the least favored.

Not to mention "Celebrating More Than Years 2", LeTV, Penguin, and Youku are eyeing each other.

It is estimated that 80 million is not eligible to enter the game. If it is less than 100 million, there is no need to come out and embarrass yourself.

And the other one is also more popular than "The Temptation of Going Home", that is "The Work of the Royal Gift" starring Xiao Zhao.

This drama is played by Xiao Zhao as the first starring role. The male protagonist Han Dong played the old nine and Shi Jin in "Water Margin" in "Scary Step by Step" before, and he is quite popular.

This buddy was born in civil engineering. He was lucky enough to become an actor. He was also a part-time player in Beipiao in the early days, and he barely made it out later.

He has a nickname called "Hengdian No. 1 Brother". It is said that he only rests for 4 days in 365 days a year, and spends the rest in Hengdian filming. There are almost no scandals and popularity.

Wei Yang has a good impression of him. Although this dude is close to a dead girl, he also has a lot of connections with the Tang people. He has been photographed in both the Beijing circle and the Shanghai circle.

There are many actors like this in the circle, or most of them are such "both sides".

Wei Yang and Si Yatou are considered to be the two big tops of the small screen right now, and they have a lot of projects in their hands. Unless they are their own direct descendants, other actors are basically used together.

If he sees an actor who has filmed a scene of a dead girl or is a little closer to him, Wei Yang doesn't need it.

Then the new generation of actors, two-thirds of the well-known actors can't cooperate, and the same is true for the dead girl. The actors who cooperate with Blue Whale or Wei Yang are "banned", so they can only go to Nortel and China Opera Pick up the students.

It’s not good for the show, and many newcomers like to play tricks on the crew of the Blue Whale series, and there are only a handful of them who haven’t worked together.

So everyone is unhappy, but these actors will not be involved. The battle is limited to both parties themselves and their direct descendants.

Even the two sides of the direct line didn't want to be so rigid. For example, Wei Yang liked Chen Yao very much, and the dead girl coveted Rouba, Qiao Zhenyu, and Xiao Zhao for a long time.

If the two sides relax the restrictions, I am afraid that the dead girl has already invited Xiao Zhao, Qiao Zhenyu and others to film.

Han Dong, who is not directly related, is not in Wei Yang's small book, and he even participated in Tang Ren's "Scary Step by Step" and "Da Mo Yao". At present, the Tang Dynasty is better than the dead girl. side.

Wei Yang gave him a chance in "The Work of the Little Butterfly by the Emperor", but the main thing is to praise Xiao Zhao.

This drama is also a typical little sweet drama. The heroine is cute and cute, but she is not purely silly and sweet, and has strong professional ability.

The setting of this drama is actually somewhat similar to "The Chef Carrying the Pot among the Flowers", except that it lacks the elements of gourmet cooking, deepens the suspenseful reasoning and some forensic settings.

After the successful cases of the two dramas "Shanshan is Coming" and "The Chef Carrying the Pot Among the Flowers", this drama has naturally become a favorite.

Unknowingly, although Xiao Zhao is not as good as Liu Shishi and Dami Mihong now, but with her distinctive sweet girl style, in the eyes of many people, she already has the capital to carry the drama.

The TV copyright is okay, but the webcast copyright is much brighter than "The Temptation of Going Home".

Due to the obvious focus on young audiences, coupled with the excellent performance data and discussions of Xiao Zhao's two dramas earlier, the major websites donated generously.

The 40 million guarantee is guaranteed. If the second season of "Celebrating More Than Years" does not come out, it is expected to hit 50 million.

If the drama "Imperial Bestowed Xiao Wu Zuo" is still popular, Xiao Zhao's status will be completely stabilized.

As I have said many times before, the essence of a star is a commodity.

The so-called coffee position, popularity and popularity are only one aspect, the core is the profit value brought by itself.

As a drama, Xiao Zhao can sell a lot of money, which proves her strength. Even if her popularity and fame are inferior, and her personal commercial value is mediocre, in the eyes of many people, she is enough to be on par with Shi Mi, or even surpassed.

Many people attach great importance to "The Little Wu Zuo", including the inside of Blue Whale. If it goes well, it can even be promoted to the top.

But no one knows, as the boss of Blue Whale, Wei Yang is always more optimistic about "The Temptation of Going Home".

It's even rare to intervene, allowing "The Little Wu Zuo" to be broadcast at the end of the year, and won "The Temptation of Going Home" the position of Hunan Satellite TV's opening drama of the year...
