Chapter 673 673. Propaganda (First Update)
Nie Wei and Li Dawei brought the tapes of the first three episodes to the TV station to ask the leaders of the station to try them out. If they were satisfied, the tapes would be left at the TV station and broadcast directly. If they were not satisfied, everyone would sit down and discuss and finally decide what needed to be modified.
Zhongtian TV obviously attached great importance to this preview. Not only all the leaders of the TV series department of the TV station, but also the chairman of the TV station, Ma Yong, appeared in person.
Three hours later, when the staff turned off the TV, everyone had a satisfied smile.
"Mr. Nie, Director Li, we are very satisfied with the quality of this TV series. The TV series you shot is even more exciting than the script we saw." Ma Yong happily shook Nie Wei's hand. He was actually not very familiar with idol dramas at his age, but he could see from the reactions of the employees around him that this idol drama was very good.
And what he valued more was the success of this cooperation with Huayi. Although the idol dramas in Taiwan were successful much earlier than those in the mainland, in terms of production quality, Ma Yong had to admit that the mainland, especially Huayi, had risen in the past two years.
The money they invested in idol dramas, as well as the quality of their scripts, the level of costumes and the acting skills of the actors, completely surpassed the highest level of idol dramas in Taiwan.
Previously, Zhongtian TV had bought Huayi's "Boys Over Flowers" at a high price. With this idol drama, Zhongtian TV surpassed Shanli TV in idol drama production for the first time, and the wave of F4 swept Taiwan again, bringing full profits to the TV station.
It was this cooperation that made Zhongtian TV see the hope of making up for its weakness in TV drama production. It was also because of this that they actively contacted Huayi, which led to this joint filming between the two parties.
If this joint filming can go smoothly, then there may be more opportunities for cooperation between the two parties in the future. Zhongtian TV has a TV platform and media, and Huayi has high-quality TV dramas. Zhongtian TV can help Huayi gain a foothold in Taiwan, and Huayi can also help Zhongtian TV win viewers. It can be said that cooperation is beneficial to both parties.
Nie Wei declined Ma Yong's invitation to lunch because he and Li Dawei had to rush back to the crew to shoot in the afternoon. Ma Yong understood this reason very well.
However, just when Nie Wei and Li Dawei were about to say goodbye, they met an acquaintance on the way.
"Hello, Mr. Nie Wei." A man who looked to be in his thirties stood in the corridor. When he saw Nie Wei and his companions, he immediately walked up to greet them with a smile.
Nie Wei had a good memory and recognized this man at the first sight. Isn't this the producer of "Kangxi Lai Le", Zhan Renxiong?
"Producer Zhan, what a coincidence." Nie Wei responded politely.
"Not a coincidence." Who knew that after hearing what Nie Wei said, Zhan Renxiong shook his hand directly, and then explained: "I am waiting for you here on purpose."
Hearing this, Nie Wei raised his eyebrows, and instantly thought of something in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, Zhan Renxiong had already made an invitation first.
"Mr. Nie, I heard that your new drama will be released on our Zhongtian. Congratulations. I believe that this drama will have a long-lasting ratings. However, good wine needs to be promoted in a remote alley, so I specially invited you to our Kangxi to promote it. We will make a special for you and guarantee to help you promote it in place. You also know that the ratings of our Kangxi are among the best in Taiwan talk shows."
Nie Wei was stunned by what this guy said. He thought that he was indeed a variety show host and was really good at talking. He first praised himself with good words, then invited himself in a helpful tone, and finally did not forget to brag about himself, making Nie Wei feel as if he would be at a huge loss if he did not appear on his show.
"Zhan Renxiong, how come you are still so shameless?" Before Nie Wei could respond, a supervisor from the TV drama department laughed and teased Zhan Renxiong, and then said to Nie Wei: "Mr. Nie, don't mind it, he is just like that, but just as he said, although our TV station will definitely use the best resources to promote the TV series, if you can participate in the program promotion, the effect will definitely be better. After all, Mr. Nie, your popularity in Taiwan is this."
As he said, the supervisor gave a thumbs up, with an admiring look on his face.
If ordinary people were really fooled by this kind of flattery, Nie Wei could see at a glance that this supervisor who teased Zhan Renxiong for being thick-skinned must have a good relationship with Zhan Renxiong.
It seems that he reprimanded Zhan Renxiong, but in fact, the following words were all to help Zhan Renxiong invite himself.
The two of them were obviously playing a double act, but Nie Wei also had his own considerations. Zhan Renxiong's starting point might be for the ratings of his own variety show, but what he said was not wrong. Kangxi's influence was not small, and the effect of promoting the TV series on this show would definitely be very good.
Moreover, he and the other party had had many good cooperations. Kangxi was originally on the list of pre-selected programs for their TV series promotion. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to invite him, Nie Wei also agreed.
"Then I'll ask producer Zhan." Nie Wei said. Upon hearing this answer, Zhan Renxiong's face immediately showed an extremely happy expression, and he laughed and said: "Mr. Nie Wei, it is an honor for our program team that you can come to our program."
When he said this, Zhan Renxiong had already begun to consider how to make good use of this opportunity to win a wave of high ratings for the program. After all, this is Nie Wei, one of the most popular top stars in Asia. The previous cooperation has brought Kangxi super high ratings.
"Two episodes? No, three episodes. Such a great lineup must be three episodes to be worth it." After making an agreement with Nie Wei, Zhan Renxiong thought to himself as he walked towards the office where the program team was located.
The program time agreed by both parties is tomorrow night. At that time, not only Nie Wei will be present, but also Cheng Kun, Chen Qiaoen, Jing Tiantian, Jiang Xin and Wang Kai.
Nie Wei and Cheng Kun appeared at the same time. This is the first time in the history of Taiwan variety shows. One is the recently popular uncle agent, and the other is a very popular alien professor. It can be said that the two most popular male stars in the mainland came to Kangxi together. This lineup deserves the title of the strongest lineup of the year.
Besides, the other guests are not bad either. Chen Qiaoen has been very popular in the entertainment circle of Taiwan recently, and she was the ratings queen of idol dramas before. There are many topics worth exploring about her. Jiang Xin is also a famous female artist. As for Wang Kai and Jing Tiantian, although they are newcomers, since they were named by Nie Wei, they can be interviewed properly at that time.
Especially Jing Tiantian, who is the second female lead of this idol drama. Who knows if she will become famous after the TV series is broadcast.
Anyway, anyone who has a relationship with Nie Wei, Zhan Renxiong thinks that he can't hold the mentality of "lucky", and it's best to take care of them, so the weight of three episodes is also justified. Zhan Renxiong feels that he has found a good excuse to extend the recording time, and he is very happy.
In the past, overtime work would definitely be painful for the staff of the program group. However, today, after Zhan Renxiong informed everyone that Nie Wei, Cheng Kun and other members of the "Fated to Love You" crew would be on the show to promote, everyone's reaction was only jubilation. As for the overtime work mentioned by Zhan Renxiong, it gave all the staff a feeling of blood boiling.
After all, this is a great opportunity to compete for ratings. If the ratings are good, will the bonus be less?
Besides, the first stop for the promotion of all the leading actors of the "Fated to Love You" crew was placed in Kangxi, which is also a face-saving thing. In this circle, besides interests, isn't this face earned?
On the other hand, Nie Wei, who returned to the crew, also told the news to several people who were going to participate in the recording of the program.
Cheng Kun and Jiang Xin were indifferent, but several newcomers, especially Jing Tiantian, were very excited.
"Sister Qiaoen, we are going to record Kangxi, will we be able to see Xiao S and Cai Gong?"
"Will we see familiar guests, Shen Yulin, and Xiao Tiantian?"
"Sister, I am a little nervous again. I have never recorded a variety show before. The host is so good, will I say something wrong?"
Jing Tiantian asked one question after another, and annoyed Chen Qiaoen, who was originally very patient.
"Okay, okay, don't be nervous, and don't be afraid of saying something wrong. That program is not live, it is recorded. If you say something wrong, just ask the director to delete it." Chen Qiaoen patiently comforted Jing Tiantian.
In fact, Chen Qiaoen herself was a little nervous. This time, she was no longer a host in the variety show, but a guest, and a guest of a TV series that was about to be broadcast. She felt that she had to fulfill her responsibility to promote the TV series, for fear that the program effect would not be good and the promotion would be delayed.
"Then sister, you must take care of me when the time comes." Jing Tiantian was very smart to choose to hug Chen Qiaoen's thighs, but she didn't know that her backer was also nervous.
On the other side, although Wang Kai didn't show as much excitement and nervousness as Jing Tiantian, his inner expectations were no less than Jing Tiantian. He also watched Kangxi Lai Le and knew that this program was also very popular in Taiwan. It was also the most popular talk show he had been on so far.
He was also ambitious about popularity.
Two days passed, and there was only one day left before the broadcast, but the daily life of the crew of "Fated to Love You" did not change at all.
In fact, some young actors in the crew were still a little anxious due to the upcoming broadcast. Fortunately, there were old artists to support them, and Cheng Kun and Nie Wei's unhurried performance guided these actors to gradually calm down.
The day's filming was completed smoothly. After the crew finished dinner that night, Nie Wei and others did not return to the crew as usual, but took a nanny car to Zhongtian Building again to prepare for the recording of Kangxi.
