Chapter 562: Hero Weekly Theater
"I look like I said something I shouldn't have said?"
The next day, in the president's office of the PD Building, Meng Lang scratched his chin and asked Director Tao who came to visit.
Director Tao grinned and said, "It's time to say it! Even if you Meng Lang don't say it, there are Zhang Lang, Li Lang, and Wang Lang to say this. โ
"But this kind of topic, you can take the lead, don't take the initiative to argue. As you know, the current direction of public opinion is very delicate......"
"I understand!"
Even if Director Tao didn't remind him, Meng Lang didn't dare to set himself on fire.
After all, with the voice of the student group, the "three views are not correct" controversy triggered by Eddie's first two episodes has gradually evolved into a "national discussion".
The positions of the two sides are clear.
The group is dominated by young people, supporting teachers, parents and students to be friends, advocating a relationship of equal coexistence between the two sides, and eliminating the vicious and stubborn disease of "good for you".
The group dominated by teachers and parents believes in the concept of "Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher", and firmly believes that Shi Meng is the black sheep, and what he does will affect the children's three views.
Most people are rational!
However, among the parents and teachers, there are some radical extremists, because they were angry with the students' remarks, and they simply wrote a report letter, asking the higher authorities to ban the broadcast of "Ultraman Eddie".
Meng Lang scolded these people!
Is a report letter useful?
Quite useful!
Based on the domestic "petition" system, if the group of parents and teachers makes a report, it will be a devastating blow to any film and television animation work.
Rainbow cat blue rabbit, a lesson from the past!
Even if Meng Tsai has connections in his thighs and has the merits of "cultural export", it is also a headache to encounter this kind of thing.
Thankfully, things are turning around.
According to Director Tao's analysis, "Ultraman Eddie" is not an ordinary work. Parents and teachers want to achieve the idea of "banning" by reporting, I'm afraid it's not that simple.
First of all, Eddie's intentions are extraordinary.
From the beginning of the birth of this work, Meng Tsai has carried the banner of the 80th anniversary of the establishment of "Gift ZY People's Radio". As the superior department of radio and television, ban the 80th anniversary of the industry?
Secondly, Eddie Elementary School!
Meng Tsai has made the "most prescient" move in his life, probably the project of the Eddie Charity Foundation and Eddie Primary School. If there is no Eddie Primary School project, it is indeed quite passive in the face of this wave of public opinion crisis.
"CCTV is not panicking, what are you panicking about?"
Director Tao took a sip of hot tea and explained to Meng Lang: "Don't worry, Eddie won't have an accident." Criticism can be receptive to the higher-ups, but only if your criticism is well-founded. โ
Casual nonsense criticism, pulling the banner of "three views are not correct" and wanting to bring down the 80 th anniversary tribute work? This is definitely a big joke!
Director Tao's comfort made Meng Lang let go of his worries.
I saw him open the drawer, take out a printed document from it, hand it to Director Tao, and casually asked, "What do you think, how is the praise rate of this broadcast?"
"I'll look at ......"
Director Tao took out his reading glasses, wiped them with a paper towel, and read the document carefully.
After five minutes, he took off his glasses and nodded, "It's okay, the data is quite accurate." Combined with the ratings, you can evaluate a program or TV series in a more three-dimensional way. โ
"By the way, what are Eddie's ratings?"
"The first episode is 18.7%, and the second episode is 15.1%! It is estimated that it will drop a little more tonight, and the average rating should be above 10% for the entire broadcast cycle. โ
"Then no problem!"
Director Tao said with a smile: "The ratings are so high, and the praise rate is still more than 90%. Congratulations, another classic has been made. โ
"It's too early to say that!"
Meng Lang waved his hand and said, "Eddie hasn't reached the conclusion of the coffin yet, and I care more about the weekly theater you are tinkering with than this." How's that, are you sure?"
"Absolutely!"
When it comes to the weekly theater, Director Tao introduced with great interest: "At first, I thought that not many people paid attention to the Super Sentai series in China. Later, after doing my research, I realized that I was wrong. โ
"The number of domestic team fans is about 5 million to 10 million! Although it is far lower than the two major series of Ultraman and Kamen Rider, the foundation is not too shallow!"
it!
There are so many team fans in China?
The Super Sentai series, from its launch to the present, has only launched a work of "Electronic Squad Electromagnetic Man". And this work did not land on domestic TV platforms, and it all relied on Big Bird Video on demand.
actually attracted so many fans.
Let's say there are 10 million clan fans, then 100 million people know about the clan or have heard of the clan. With this good foundation, "Superelectronic Cyborg" has a very broad prospect!
After all, this is only the second work.
"We plan to broadcast it from 19:35-20:05 on Saturday night, making it the first regular weekly theater ......"
"Have you come up with a name?"
"What's the name?"
Director Tao was confused and said: "Do you mean the translation name? Isn't there already one, it's called a superelectronic biochemical man!"
"Not this ......"
"I'm talking about your weekly theater this Saturday night, has an exclusive theater name?"
What is the name of the play?
That's a problem!
Generally speaking, it is customary to use general words such as "Golden Theater", "Evening Theater" and "XXX (Sponsor) Theater" in domestic names. The name of the "30-minute" schedule alone has never been given.
"Why don't you make one?"
Director Tao, who couldn't think of a good idea, turned his curious eyes to Meng Lang.
"Big ......"
"Big Bird, forget it!"
Director Tao said with deep disgust: "You are still an undergraduate graduate from a key university, so you are embarrassed to call this vulgar name?"
Why is Big Bird so vulgar?
Glancing at Director Tao resentfully, Meng Lang scratched his head and said, "Why don't you name it as a team and call it a team theater!" Or maybe Pengda is named and called Pengda Weekly Theater?"
"Do you want to buy naming rights?"
With a squint of eyes, Director Tao said with a smile: "You can call it any name, the price is negotiable!"
"Do you want to charge......?
Meng Tsai just came up with an idea, he didn't want to buy the naming rights of the theater. With this money, isn't it fragrant to use it to repair the paradise?
But he didn't give up.
After the title theater was rejected, he gave another name, this time Director Tao did not contradict it, and after thinking for a while, he agreed decisively.
ใHero Weekly Theaterใ
It can be seen from this name that Director Tao agrees with Meng Lang's opinion that this weekly theater will focus on children's hero dramas and consolidate Jiangchuan Satellite TV's existing youth viewing base.
What mother-in-law dramas, idol dramas, and costume dramas all roll to eight o'clock, and the half-hour from half past seven to eight o'clock belongs to hero dramas!
Director Tao is very courageous!
Even in the neon United States, where weekly dramas are prevalent, there has never been such a "hero drama exclusive" theater except for animated theaters.
