Chapter 524 524. Exploding the Screen (Part 2)
"Ha...haha...hahahahaha!!!" The person in charge, who had never put down his mobile phone, finally spoke, but it was a series of laughter. It was normal at first, but the more he laughed, the more crazy he became. That look, It was almost as if he was going crazy with joy.
"Isn't the director crazy?"
"What's the result? I'm so curious."
"If the director laughs enough, we will know."
Several employees hid aside and watched the director going crazy with joy. Fortunately, the director was not really crazy. It was just because the results were so gratifying that he couldn't hold back his joy.
The average ratings were 3.77 and the highest rating was 5.56. This was beyond the director's expectations.
Although this TV series is written by Nie Wei, to be honest, everyone's expectation for him is that it would be great if the whole series can break the five-digit mark after it is finished. After all, although it is written by Nie Wei, only every big-name actor is involved. of.
Look at the male protagonist Cheng Kun, a washed-up male star. He recently turned around thanks to a variety show. But his popularity is all from variety shows. Will it work in TV series?
And Fan Binbin, who was originally very popular, has plummeted due to the swimming pool scandal. He has been quiet for several months and has lost a lot of popularity.
Can these two actors and actresses really sustain this TV series?
In comparison, in the eyes of many people, the supporting roles are more useful than the two protagonists. Both Hu Ge and Dong Xuan are the kind of stars who have developed smoothly, at least in the eyes of the public, they have a good impression.
In addition, this TV series is also filled with a large number of newcomers, such as Jing Boran, who has never acted before and came to the show halfway through filming.
And Zheng Shuang is even more unknown. Except for a small number of people in her hometown of Fengtian who know this local child star, the rest of the country has no idea where this girl came from. However, after a reporter's investigation, this girl turned out to be Nie Wei. The freshmen who were recruited from an acting training class also admired Nie Wei's boldness, he really dared to use it on anyone.
Now these doubts are at least gone in the director's mind. After all, everything has to be judged by results.
The highest ratings for the first episode exceeded 5, and looking at the numbers after the decimal point, it is not hopeless for the second episode to reach 6. The beginning was so strong, and after more than 40 episodes have been aired, wouldn't it be a miracle! ?
"I never imagined that this TV series would really create a miracle." At Feng Xiaogang's home, at the strong request of his children, the couple also watched "My Love from the Star" with them.
It was originally just for the purpose of accompanying the children, but unexpectedly, the two of them ended up being addicted to it.
When the two of them came to their senses, the ending song of "My Love from the Star" came out.
"This TV series is poisonous." Feng Xiaogang pointed at the TV series and smiled bitterly. The daughter on the side thought that her father was praising this TV series, so she immediately said with a smile: "Right, I said this TV series is very good, and all our classmates have made appointments." Well, let’s see.”
Feng Xiaogang had no excuse. As a great director, from his professional perspective, this TV series can only be described as so-so.
The photography has no characteristics, and some places are even very unreasonable. Sometimes the characters are too highlighted and the flow of the plot is ignored. But if you ask Feng Xiaogang to deny the value of this TV series, he can't do it. On the contrary, he still has to pay for this TV series. Thumbs up for the TV series.
Because as he said, this TV series is poisonous and addictive.
There are obviously so many things that he can't see, but he is able to indulge in it. While complaining about the need to show the protagonist such a long shot, he feels that it is very enjoyable to watch, especially after Fan Binbin appears, he is I laughed several times, and for the first time I felt that Fan Binbin was an actor with real comedy talent.
In Feng Xiaogang's view, this TV series really has a unique charm that is difficult to find in the Chinese market. At this time, he also remembered the idol drama era that Nie Wei once said when this TV series was launched. He had scoffed at it at first, feeling that in the end Nie Wei Wei must come up with something nondescript.
Now it seems that Nie Wei is obviously well versed in idol dramas. The completed works are no worse than the idol dramas in Baodao. In Feng Xiaogang's opinion, they are even better. This also makes him secretly convinced. Some people are truly gifted.
Thinking of this, he finally said the first words to his wife beside him with emotion. He really felt that Nie Wei was going to create an idol drama miracle in the mainland. Starting tonight, the mainland idol drama market has finally ushered in. A super giant crocodile, with Nie Wei's methods, would definitely be able to take a big bite out of this market.
As soon as Feng Xiao finished sighing, he suddenly found that no one answered the conversation. He turned around and saw that his wife was chatting with her daughter about the plot of the TV series, and she didn't notice his emotional words at all.
Director Feng couldn't laugh or cry for a moment. Seeing his wife and daughter chatting animatedly, he thought that this TV series could make a woman in her late forties so fascinated. He suddenly thought that he should also study it seriously. Although he won't be filming a TV series with this knowledge, he might be able to use it in a movie one day.
While Feng Xiaogang just wanted to try out the idea of this new TV series, some people are already interested in dabbling in idol dramas.
Among them is Wang Jinghua, who poached most of the artists from Huayi.
If there are any people in Huayi who deserve Huajie's attention, Wang Zhonglei is number one, because they have made enemies, so she must let him go, but Wang Zhonglei is not ranked first in Huajie's heart. Nie Wei is the first.
For Nie Wei, she pays more attention than defense, because this man always has a kind of charm that attracts attention.
Wang Jinghua will pay attention to his movies and TV series at the first time, and this time "My Love from the Star" written by Nie Wei is no exception, especially the professional idol drama model that Nie Wei once mentioned to the media, which also makes Wang Jinghua very interested.
However, before she saw Nie Wei's results, she didn't dare to invest casually. After all, her net worth is not as rich as Huayi, and some plans need to be cautious.
However, tonight, when she watched "My Love from the Star", the first thought in her heart was that the plan could really be launched.
Unlike Feng Xiaogang who only looked at the technology and effect, in her eyes, this TV series, she saw a whole new industrial chain.
Not only the income from the TV series itself, but also the peripheral income brought by this TV series, is really too big. At least in her opinion, this is really a gold mountain.
Take a look at the discussions online.
The hairstyles, clothes, accessories of the male and female protagonists, their means of transportation, the milk they drink, the snacks they eat, the mobile phones they hold, and even the songs they hum, these are all peripherals that can be implanted.
If other movies and TV series can still copy these things, then the ability of this model of TV series to create stars is something that other types of TV series cannot do at all.
Take Zheng Shuang, who only appeared for a few minutes in the first episode. In such a short time, Zheng Shuang became a little celebrity on the Internet, and the reason why she became popular instantly was mostly due to the model of this TV series.
This idol drama model is simply the most powerful magic weapon to launch newcomers.
And what Wang Jinghua lacks now is precisely newcomers.
Thinking of this, Wang Jinghua instructed the assistant who was watching TV with her: "Xiao Gao, remember to remind me to send a text message to Nie Wei tomorrow. I haven't contacted him for a long time, and I miss him."
"Mr. Wang, I remember it." Xiao Gao quickly took out a small notebook and recorded this temporary matter.
Wang Jinghua picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip. She was thinking about what price she would have to pay to get the "true scripture" of idol dramas from Nie Wei. After all, with Nie Wei's foxy character, if she wanted to get any benefits from him, she would have to be prepared to bleed.
There are also many actors who are dumbfounded by the appearance of idol dramas at this moment. The smart ones are even preparing to choose similar scripts, especially whether Huayi will produce a second idol drama next. This has obviously become the most concerned thing for many interested people.
When Wang Zhonglei got the ratings report, he happily opened a bottle of red wine in the office.
The financial benefits are definitely very generous. He knew this before the TV series was broadcast. What really makes him happy is the success of this model of TV series.
Just like Nie Wei said, this is a convenient channel to create stars.
Huayi now has such a powerful weapon. When launching new talents in the future, it will be more labor-saving and more effective than other companies. Moreover, this advantage can be maintained for a long time. In the case that other companies have not thoroughly studied the idol drama model, Huayi will theoretically have no rivals.
According to Nie Wei, if those people really want to thoroughly study idol dramas, it is really not possible in a short time. Wang Zhonglei believes Nie Wei's words.
Thinking about the emergence of batches of popular newcomers in his company in the future and the inheritance from generation to generation, it is not impossible for entertainment companies like Universal and Paramount to survive for a hundred years or even longer.
Nie Wei, who was far away in Taiwan, also received countless congratulatory calls that night. The ratings of the second episode were far beyond everyone's expectations. It did not break six, but directly broke seven. The rapid momentum not only shocked the people who followed this TV series, but even Nie Wei, who was most mentally prepared, could not help but be a little surprised.
At this moment, he really understood how much the mainland needed the emergence of new idols at this time.
Just like the future "Meteor Shower", it can be said to be shoddy, but it can attract countless audiences because its model is directly applied to the original TV series in Taiwan, with a combination of handsome men and beautiful women, a humorous and romantic plot, and the most fashionable and beautiful elements. This is the key to the success of idol dramas.
The idol elements in "My Love from the Star" are more mature than those in "Meteor Shower", the actors' acting skills are more in place, and even the props are more attentive. It is natural that it has caused a greater sensation.
Because the current Chinese mainland is an era lacking idols.
And with the popularity of the TV series, it also proves that Nie Wei's point of view is completely correct.
Cheng Kun and Fan Binbin began to accept media interviews every day, and cover photos and advertising endorsements also appeared in their lounge in piles, and the price was also a number they had never dared to think of before.
The costumes and accessories of the characters in the drama were also sold out in the official shopping malls, and also triggered a trend of imitation by a number of small clothing stores. After all, not all audiences can afford the authentic clothes, and most of them prefer cheap and similar textiles.
The songs played in the shops on the street have also become the theme songs, ending songs and various interludes of the TV series. Some small shops even changed their signs to those with Cheng Kun or Fan Binbin, or even both of them. The effect is really good. The goods sold on that day are much more than usual.
Moreover, the boys on the street have gradually started to change their hairstyles. Some are forced by their girlfriends, some really like it, and some want to change their fate by becoming handsome. In short, Professor Lin's side bangs hairstyle became popular and became the standard for every handsome boy.
Even some people whose faces are not suitable don't care. It seems that as long as they have such a hairstyle, they will have a charm bonus.
And the buns and apple heads that Fan Binbin has in the film have also become the favorites of many girls recently. For a while, there are fewer black long straight hair on the street. Girls all wear apple heads and buns, and wear the same fashion as Fan Binbin in the drama. When walking on the street, they feel that their rate of turning heads has increased.
This trend came suddenly and violently. The whole nation seemed to be immersed in this craze, madly chasing after everything in this idol drama.
The era of idol dramas described by Nie Wei suddenly arrived.
The audience went crazy, and the media went crazy. At least half of the hot searches on blogs every day were related to the TV series "My Love from the Star". The two protagonists' past black history did not need any explanation from them, and naturally the media and fans helped to whitewash it. Cheng Kun became a charming actor in people's eyes, and Fan Binbin became one of the most popular actresses at the moment, with unlimited scenery.
The popularity of these two people at this time was just like the scorching sun, brilliant and dazzling. No one in China could match it.
Under such momentum, the ratings of the TV series also rose steadily. In the tenth episode, the scene of Tong Mengxi drunkenly kissing Lin Tai on the yacht made the ratings of this idol drama break through the ten-point mark.
It can break through ten so early, and no one can estimate the potential of this TV series.
At this time, Nie Wei had already left Taiwan and came to Japan. In his spare time, he took Shu Chang and Alan to visit the joint venture music agency.
Thanks to Hu Hansan, Hu Da Laoye, Qiu Ye Liangyue, and 0773's book friends for their generous rewards.
