Chapter 280 It’s so difficult for middle-aged and elderly film and television people! (Ask for month
Seeing a group of people raising their flags high, they were instantly intimidated. The netizens lying in the live broadcast room and cheating had no intention of continuing to practice with him, so Li Youzhi ended the live broadcast.
There were too many people in the gym, and the amount of exercise today couldn't even keep up with the usual warm-up. He didn't take a shower, but after saying hello to a group of unruly classmates, he returned to the dormitory with his bag.
After returning to the dormitory, Li Youzhi turned on the computer and logged into the "Secret and Great" play page of Aiyi Video.
The film was officially premiered on September 10th. At that time, Liu Yun called and invited Li Youzhi to participate in the promotion.
But at that time, Li Youzhi was busy filming "Super Hero" and had no time at all. So I simply posted an update on my Dishou and Beep sites to promote the show, and then went about my own business.
Regarding the drama "Secret", Li Youzhi is actually not that concerned about it.
It's actually quite embarrassing to say this... As the third male lead Zhao Zhiyong in the drama, Li Youzhi's investment in this drama is actually quite limited.
During the filming of this drama, most of the time... he was busy using the crew's resources to work on "The Invisible Guardian".
What does this look like?
Just like a scumbag who obviously has a real girlfriend, but spends most of his time hanging around with his good sister.
So now that the role in this film has brought him amazing value, Li Youzhi feels a little guilty.
That's the kind of thing... I'll have sex outside at home every day, and I won't even care or ask about my girlfriend. Then suddenly one day you drank too much, and your girlfriend gave you a bowl of ginseng soup...
This feeling is so fucked.
With this guilty feeling, Li Youzhi took a rough look at the film's data and audience ratings.
Then, he frowned!
The data of the film is actually quite good. It has a total length of 40 episodes and has accumulated more than 30 million views. Although this data is not ranked T0 in such a long series, it is already between T1 and T2.
There's no problem with the popularity, but this comment section... is a bit uncomfortable to watch!
It’s not that there are too many negative comments, but the obvious fan comments in the comment section feel extremely stinky.
The lead star of this film is Bai Shen, who plays the male lead Gu Yaodong in the film.
Today's series finale, Bai Shen's fans have already started the bragging mode in the comment area.
It's actually nothing to do with this kind of fandom. But maybe it’s because Bai Shen’s fan base is relatively young, so there was a lot of backlash in the comment area!
"It's all over! The part about our family in this drama can be rated 9.9! The acting is simply explosive! The other parts are lagging behind, otherwise Tietie would be this year's phenomenal drama!"
"He's so handsome! Oh my God, I licked the whole screen of Shen Shen! All other parts will be skipped at 5x speed. Just the part about Shen Shen is so exciting!"
"I feel so bad for Shen Shen. With such high popularity, he acted in such a small-scale film. It is really not easy to be able to support the whole drama. Wow, the rating of 8.1 is low. Jimei has finished it. Don't forget to give Yaodong a thumbs up and give Yaodong some flowers!"
"It's really hard for our family, Shenshen, to lead these beautiful actors all the way to 30 million views! Watching Shenshen throughout the whole process, every time I see the heroine's chin, the second male lead's donkey face, and the third male lead's ugly look Yan...emmmm, I feel bad!"
Looking at these comments, Li Youzhi's brows trembled.
It’s true that when I filmed this film, my appearance was only in my 70s, but it wasn’t that ugly!
Moreover, the popularity of a drama has never been said to depend on one actor.
In addition to the appearance of actors, the storytelling of film and television dramas and the characters in the dramas are all very important.
With this thought, Li Youzhi pulled down the comment hard.
Finally, dozens of floors below, he found a fair word;
"Bai Shen's performance this time was pretty good. Although there is still room for improvement in his acting skills, at least it didn't make people feel too dramatic. On the contrary, I was deeply impressed by the two supporting characters in the film; one is Lao Yang and the other It's Zhao Zhiyong. The character of Lao Yang can be said to be a portrayal of the people at the bottom of that era. He had no power and could only live with all his strength. Just because of a big shot's words, he could only become a scapegoat.
The character Zhao Zhiyong is the opposite of Gu Yaodong, a foil. His nature is not bad, and he wanted to be a peaceful worker from the beginning. But in that era, if he wanted to give his family a better life, he had to adapt to that society. From Zhao Zhiyong, he saw what we are like in reality. In this luxuriant society, how many people can truly have the aura of a protagonist like Gu Yaodong, who can always remain brave and determined? From the setting of these two characters, it can be seen that the script is carefully polished. Worth 8 points! "
Look, this is a human comment!
Taking a deep breath, Li Youzhi picked up the mirror on the table. Looking at his handsome face with 85 points of appearance attribute, he let out a long breath.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. These ignorant little kids disliked Li Youzhi a few months ago. What does it have to do with Brother Zhi now?"
After calming his slightly stimulated heart, Li Youzhi picked up the phone and dialed Liu Yun's number.
I don't have any friendship with Bai Shen, but Liu Yun took a lot of care in this movie. Now that the movie is finished and it looks like the results are pretty good, I feel like I have to give him a call to congratulate him.
The call was answered quickly.
Hearing Liu Yun's greeting, Li Youzhi quickly congratulated: "Director Liu, congratulations. I watched "Secret and Great" finished today, and the playback and response were good. You said before that this film was your transformation, This is considered complete!”
"Hi,"
Facing Li Youzhi's congratulations, Liu Yun on the other end of the phone let out a bitter smile.
"What's the point of perfection? The popularity of this film is quite good, but the profit is actually worse than the traditional spy dramas produced by the company before. I just went home from a meeting with the company, and I have been talking about this all afternoon. .”
"Well?"
Li Youzhi frowned when he heard what Liu Yun said.
Like "Super Heroes", "Secret" also adopts an online platform account sharing model.
Because "Super Hero" is the first broadcast on the entire network and does not have an exclusive premiere on any single platform, all three platforms have given it an A-level, which is the so-called "non-exclusive high-quality work."
For this level of split pricing, if a member registers effectively, Rongying can get a split of RMB 1.5.
As for an exclusive high-quality work like "Secret", it is S+. Even if the split price of the TV series is not as high as that of the Internet, it still has to be equivalent to one dollar, sixty-seven dollars for a member to watch it.
Calculating it this way, the revenue of this film alone must be 50 to 60 million.
This doesn’t even count the product placement in idol dramas!
"You shouldn't, Director Liu. You can't even make a profit of 60 to 70 million yuan. How much profit is too much? The "Super Hero" that our school and Rongying worked on has only been screened for less than 30 million times. Rongying people are saying You’re making a lot of money, are you still not satisfied with the data of more than three thousand? Haha, that’s about it, don’t be so Versailles.”
"..."
Amid Li Youzhi's laughter, there was silence on the other side of the phone.
"Guess why I don't smile?"
It wasn't until more than ten seconds passed that Li Youzhi's laughter stopped, and Liu Yun on the other side of the phone said quietly;
"You guys have forgotten one thing...don't worry about how much the filming cost of your "Super Hero" is. All subsequent accounts are yours. The drama "Secret"...has top-notch actors like Bai Shen in it." Ah... Bai Shen's basic salary is 300,000 per episode, and he also needs a 5% turnover.
The total production cost of this film was more than 31 million yuan, and the publicity and distribution cost was 15 million. We bought more than a dozen of the hot searches. The income from embedded advertising is more than 5 million, and the current box office split is 53 million, and 5% has to be deducted... After all, after all this effort, the profit is only a few million, just kidding What a fart! "
Oh fuck,
Li Youzhi's face twisted when he heard Liu Yun's calculation.
Damn it! Bai Shen?
A drama, a net income of 20 million? !
Just that paralyzed face?
"Hey, now that the completion data has come out, it has almost become a joke in the industry to be powerful. Damn it, a film and television company does not make as much money as the leading actors in film and television projects. Now our company is so arrogant that we slap ourselves every day. My mouth and beard are all bald. This time I hit a wall, I guess I decided to go out and make a traditional spy movie to revive the company."
In Li Youzhi's silence, Liu Yun sighed again.
It seemed that he himself realized that there was too much negative energy, and that he and Li Youzhi revealed too much information that was not easy to spread to others, so he immediately changed his tune.
"By the way, what are you guys busy with recently? I saw that you and Guanghua made a cartoon before, and it seems to be quite popular recently. Why are you still thinking about making cartoons? You shouldn't be making one. Will you pay for one now?"
"Forehead……"
Faced with Liu Yun's complaints, Li Youzhi grinned.
""That Rabbit" is still profitable... CCTV offered a price of 500,000 yuan per episode, and the production cost of an episode is only 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. I can still sell peripherals in the future..."
"..."
After hearing Li Youzhi finish talking about the profitability of "That Rabbit", the phone went completely silent.
Shanghai and Haihai.
Squeak!
With a sharp braking sound, a black Grand Cherokee braked suddenly and stopped under the sycamore tree beside the road.
Silently, Liu Yun took out Ashima from his pocket and took out a crumpled cigarette.
He has always liked this brand of cigarettes, but due to poor sales, there has been news that they will be withdrawn from the market.
As the red flames of the lighter ignited the remnants of the era, rising smoke rose from inside the car.
Liu Yun sighed deeply when he saw a young couple making out next to the sycamore tree in front of the car as if no one was around.
Damn...this new era, I can’t keep up!
At this time, Li Youzhi's probing voice came from the speakers in the car.
"Brother Liu, I have a project here. Although it has not been started yet, if your company really wants to transform, you can invest in it. I think there is still a start."
"What theme? War, espionage?"
Hearing what Li Youzhi said, Liu Yun blinked while holding a cigarette.
"No, it's infinite science fiction, love, idols... well, maybe a little suspense. The script hasn't been released yet. The plot is roughly a story about time reincarnation. The tentative title of the project is "The Beginning". If you vote, I I want you to be responsible for the production, what do you think?"
How about it?
Regarding Li Youzhi's active recruitment, Liu Yun wanted to cry but had no tears.
Can I tell the truth?
I don’t even understand this special element!
I can understand love and idols...but what is unlimited flow?
It’s too difficult to understand what young people are doing nowadays.
It’s so difficult, it’s so difficult for middle-aged and elderly film and television people!
