Chapter 458 458. My Own Swordsman is now showing

The highest ratings on the first day were able to break 5, which was definitely very good news. After Nie Wei got the ratings, he quickly edited the text message and sent it to Wang Zhonglei, Shang Jing and others.

Wang Zhonglei was the first person to reply to Nie Wei's text message. In the text message, he expressed his satisfaction with the performance of the TV series, and at the same time revealed a trace of regret. He felt that the first broadcast rights of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" were sold for a little less, and he should have asked for a few million more at the beginning. At the same time, he did not forget to look forward to the future, thinking about how much revenue this TV series could create for the company in the future.

Nie Wei ignored Wang Zhonglei's dissatisfaction. This time, the price given by Huaxia TV was quite sincere. After all, no one knew whether the ratings of the TV series were good or not before it was broadcast, and the other party was also taking risks. For a sitcom to get that price, the conditions were already generous.

After perfunctorily dealing with this greedy president, Nie Wei soon received a text message from Shang Jing.

His happiness was much simpler. The results were a good start, and half of the pressure on him was relieved at once. More importantly, the good reviews on the Internet made him very excited. With such support from the audience, the subsequent ratings would definitely be guaranteed.

While reading Shang Jing's text message, Nie Wei's phone received two more text message notification sounds, from Sha Yi and Jiang Chao.

Jiang Chao's text message was very real. In addition to being surprised by the ratings of the show, he also expressed his gratitude to Nie Wei. Sha Yi was a bit more cunning, and he even joked with Nie Wei in the text message about asking for red envelopes.

Soon Yanni, Ni Hongjie and others also replied to Nie Wei's text message, but what surprised Nie Wei was that Shu Chang also sent him a text message, asking about the performance of the TV series.

This made Nie Wei feel very warm in his heart, that feeling that even if the other person is not around, he will still care about you in a corner. Nie Wei read the text message sent by Shu Chang for a long time. Just when Shu Chang thought Nie Wei was asleep, he replied: "The ratings have exceeded 5, and the reputation is booming."

A text message alert sound made Shu Chang, who was originally sleepy and had drooping eyelids, instantly refreshed. He picked up the phone and saw the content of Nie Wei's text message.

"Great!!!" Shu Chang shouted in surprise. After she finished shouting, she thought of the current time and quickly covered her mouth again.

However, Shu Chang's excited expression on her face was difficult to conceal. She covered her mouth and laughed non-stop, like a little white rabbit who had stolen the most delicious carrot. The reason for Shu Chang's happiness was also very simple. Her boyfriend's success again made her feel full of a sense of accomplishment. Although the reality had little to do with her, Shu Chang felt that she could empathize with Nie Wei's joy.

As some viewers have said, "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is really the biggest surprise gift for TV drama fans in the new year.

The third and fourth episodes of the second day both had a peak rating of over 6, and an average rating of over 4. The ratings continued to rise, and after a week of broadcasting, the peak rating even exceeded 10, and the word of mouth has always maintained an excellent level. This TV series at the beginning of the year has brought too many surprises to many people. It is almost invincible. At the beginning of the new year, it has a momentum to dominate the annual ratings.

This is not an idle fantasy. Not to mention the ratings of the prime time in the evening, even the replay of the next afternoon can maintain an average rating of more than 3 points, beating all the programs in the country at the same time.

At the same time, several leading actors who were originally only slightly famous or even unknown finally experienced the feeling of "becoming famous overnight". They who were always forgotten by the media in the past finally became the focus of the media. Various praise articles emerged in an endless stream, describing them as buried pearls and unpolished jades. In short, they were praised to the sky.

The media praised the actors' acting skills, and the creativity of the TV series itself amazed everyone.

Shooting a sitcom with the theme of martial arts is unique to Huaxia so far, and the key content can be suitable for all ages. In the words of the media, this is a TV series for all ages, which can make families stop fighting for the remote control and create family harmony.

The avant-garde humorous buzzwords are sought after by contemporary young people, and the positive energy themes in the funny scenes also make the older generation feel comfortable. Combined together, it is a TV series that people can't stop watching, which is why it has repeatedly created ratings miracles since its launch.

The person in charge of Huaxia Channel 8 recently walked in the aisle of the Huaxia Channel building with his head held high and his chest puffed out, and he looked so amazing.

No wonder, it was this person in charge who insisted on raising the price to get this TV series, which caused criticism from many colleagues at the time, thinking that a sitcom was not worth the price at all, but now the excellent performance of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" has undoubtedly proved how correct his choice was.

Even the director of Hua Xia TV specially gave great praise to this person in charge at the team meeting. After all, because of this person in charge's persistence, Hua Xia TV had a good start at the beginning of the year, and it was not just a normal success, it was extremely popular. Who would have thought that such a sitcom would become a hot candidate to win the annual ratings champion.

What surprised the peers even more was the investment in this TV series. The whole series is said to have more than 80 episodes, but the investment is only 15 million. Including the later publicity, it is only a little over 20 million. The average production cost of one episode is only more than 200,000, and the pay of several leading actors is even cheaper. Added together, one episode is less than 50,000.

As for the scenery, this TV series does not have any famous mountains, rivers, or tall buildings. As a situation comedy, there is only a model of an inn. Even the lobby, stairs and backyard are real, and the several guest rooms upstairs are fake.

Besides, there is no need to compare the actors' costumes. Compared with those costume dramas, the costumes of this TV series can be described as "hardship and simplicity". Several leading actors have hardly changed any clothes from beginning to end, and they are all wearing old cloth clothes. At most, the girls have two cheap small accessories.

On the contrary, some villains are dressed more exquisitely than the leading actors. In this TV series, you can't expect to see any gorgeous scenes. Even the special effects are replaced by sound effects. You can't even see some animation light and shadow. However, such a TV series that seems to have very scarce investment in all aspects has created one ratings miracle after another.

For a time, sitcoms have entered the eyes of people in the circle again. Many TV production companies have been preparing for this aspect, preparing to follow the trend of "Wulin Wai Zhuan". You Huayi eats meat, and these people also want to drink soup.

Under such a trend, the treatment of several leading actors in TV series has also risen.

For example, Shang Jing, this "Wulin Wai Zhuan" made him the title of "King of Sitcoms" in China by the media. Those companies that are ready to follow the trend to shoot sitcoms choose Shang Jing as the best director, and Shang Jing's director fee is also a daily price. In just a few days, the price has increased by more than three times compared with the filming of "Wulin Wai Zhuan".

At this moment, several excellent sitcoms shot by Shang Jing have become popular. Those with copyrights can add the name of Shang Jing, the director of "Wulin Wai Zhuan", to promote them and they can be broadcast soon, with good ratings. Those without copyrights will buy the copyrights immediately. TV series from a few years ago have been hyped up by this group of people to the price of a new TV series, and those who bought them think they got a great bargain.

The leading actor Sha Yi has become a humorous young man in the minds of many young girls. In the past, he would go shopping in the street or the supermarket, and few people would recognize him after walking for a day. Since the release of "Wulin Wai Zhuan", these activities have been far away from him. Now, as long as he goes out on the street, he will be recognized within 50 meters, and then he will be surrounded by a group of people, and then "Lao Bai, Lao Bai" will be called non-stop, and then he will be asked for autographs and photos, which is painful and happy.

Yanni, who played the role of the charming proprietress Tong Xiangyu, also became popular. In the TV series, she spoke with a Xi'an accent and instantly became a local representative star after the TV series was broadcast. Local TV stations kept coming to her home for interviews. If they couldn't find Yanni herself, they would interview her parents, relatives, friends and even neighbors. Even the local government has invited Yanni to become the local tourism ambassador.

Jiang Chao and Yu Entai have also gained popularity that they never dared to think of before, but the one who gained the most is Yao Chen.

She was previously unknown, but she suddenly became a hot young actress in China. Because of her youthful age and hearty smile, she immediately became a hot commodity in the eyes of many film and television companies. Some people even began to call them the little Shu Qi of the mainland.

Yao Chen was also the first actor among the leading actors to receive the movie script. It is said that the girl was so excited that she shed tears on the day she received the script. She was the leading actress, and she was partnered with a very famous comedy predecessor in Hong Kong and Taiwan. She had never dared to think of such an opportunity before.

In addition to the opportunity to act, several leading actors have also received a lot of advertising endorsements, which has brought about earth-shaking changes in their personal income. Some of them have even started planning to buy a house in Kyoto, which shows how much their income has grown.

Of course, as the sole producer, Huayi Company naturally gets the most benefits.

The company's production of a fine TV series brings a lot of reputation. Since then, no one dares to mention that Huayi is weak in TV series, and the brand "Huayi" has become more and more famous as the TV series has become popular.

This has further expanded Huayi's influence and the value of the company's brand has also increased significantly.

In addition, there is naturally money.

After the first round of broadcast rights were sold, the TV series was actually not at a loss. As the TV series became popular, the various incentive measures written in the contract were also happily fulfilled by Huaxia TV. At the same time, the prices of the next few rounds of broadcast rights also rose greatly. Huaxia TV even offered the same price for the second round of exclusive broadcast rights as the first round of exclusive broadcast rights.

In addition, the animation copyright of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" was also purchased by a domestic animation company. The animation version of this TV series will be launched in half a year. This transaction brought Huayi another 3 million yuan in revenue.

There are also fan fiction, CDs, peripherals, etc., which are also selling well. According to the calculations of several data analysts in the Finance Department, this TV series will at least bring Huayi more than three times the investment, which is more profitable than shooting a hit movie.

"Shoot, keep shooting. Didn't Nie Wei just submit a new script? Let's shoot that one!" Wang Zhonglei, who came to this conclusion, decided to put "My Love from the Star" submitted by Nie Wei on the agenda that day. He was hesitant before because the production cost of this TV series would exceed 30 million. Now he is not hesitant, because the benefits are in front of him. In addition, the script is written by Nie Wei. Although the subject matter is different, Wang Zhonglei's confidence in Nie Wei is simply overflowing.

With such high returns, Nie Wei did not forget to give a big red envelope to several colleagues in the crew, especially several leading actors and directors. The contents of the red envelopes are all more than six figures. After receiving the red envelopes, they were all very happy. Sha Yi simply smiled until his eyes were slits. Even Yanni, who is not good at expressing herself on weekdays, sent Nie Wei a flaming red lipstick expression, obviously how surprised she was about the red envelope.

On January 12, less than a week before "Back to 20" was about to be aired, the episode of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" in which Nie Wei and Shu Chang made a guest appearance was also aired, and this episode also achieved another high ratings for this TV series recently, with the highest ratings directly breaking through 16, and the average ratings even reached 11, which simply crushed the competitors of the same period.

The highest ratings that night were also in the minute when Nie Wei and Shu Chang appeared. The two obviously did not have a single line, and only showed their faces, but in the eyes of the audience, it was as happy and excited as if they had suddenly found a treasure in a pile of rubbish.

There were even viewers who kept making fun of this, saying that this episode of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" was finally online, and that Nie Wei and Shu Chang's appearance was simply refreshing. There were also people who were surprised that these two people could perfectly integrate into the style of "Wulin Wai Zhuan", saying that it was simply beyond the eyes of these people.

Before Nie Wei was happy about the good news, a message suddenly destroyed his good mood.

There were not many things that could upset Nie Wei, but the other party was really ruthless. They could persuade some theaters to change their camps to boycott their own films. "Back to 20", which originally had a 30% screening rate, was suddenly adjusted by two theaters in the south a few days before its release, causing the screening rate to drop by four percentage points. Don't underestimate these four percentage points, which may be tens of millions of box office data.

For this reason, even Wang Zhonglei went to Nie Wei's office to discuss countermeasures with Nie Wei.

Thanks to 0773 for the generous reward!
