Chapter 699: Careful Thinking (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Chu Yuanxi briefly talked about Bai Sha's thoughts, although they were very simple, but Wei Ning and Guan Xin listened more seriously, and even Zhang Dongdong listened with his ears pricked, and immediately sighed after listening: "The idea is really awesome, but how profound historical knowledge does this need to be to do this script well?
"Indeed, the screenwriter I was looking for, he himself said that there are no more than ten people in the country who can make this up, and the other nine should not understand pop culture. Chu Yuanxi was a little proud, the cow that Baisha blew at the beginning seems to be quite valuable now.
Of course, Guan Xin is also a little interested in this project, but first, he doesn't care about variety shows, and secondly, as an online variety, it is obviously more suitable for a gym, the traces of the sitcom "Jixia School Palace" are too heavy, although it is an ancient packaging in the form of variety shows, but it is not particularly compatible with the existing online variety model.
So he just nodded slightly in approval. But Wei Ning suddenly jumped up and stood in front of Chu Yuanxi in two steps: "Mr. Chu, give me this variety show, Jixia School Palace is a place on our side of Mount Tai, obviously it should be given to me." β
"No, many of the great sages of Taoism are from the Chu State, and in the second season, the protagonist Mencius is going to the Wei State to meet Zhuangzi and Hui Shi, and spray King Hui of Liang. This scene is very scattered, not only on Tarzan's side. Chu Yuanxi said without thinking.
"No, then it should be given to me, the first season is the most important! And if you give this variety show to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Taiwan, people will take a look at it, and Baren Entertainment will produce it? Now everyone in the station knows that I am on a line with you, I can't be a man when I go back, you have to take care of me!"
"Ah, that's it? Actually, I originally thought that I would mainly go through the net. Chu Yuanxi quietly retreated as advance.
Guan Xin next to him looked at him and then at Wei Ning, or Wei Ning and his cooperative relationship were closer, summed it up in his heart, and said: "Mr. Chu, you are a comprehensive networker, the style tone and scene or something, it doesn't seem to be a good match." Our vision of doing network comprehensive should still be okay. β
"Yes, yes, what kind of network comprehensive?" Wei Ning showed a grateful look at Guan Xin, and sure enough, he was still closer to people in the same circle. "It's not that the network comprehensive is bad, but in terms of effect, coffee position, and word-of-mouth, it must still be on satellite TV. β
Unexpectedly, Chu Yuanxi was prepared, and the data came at his fingertips: "You can't say that, it is a general trend for netizens to gradually shift the focus of their lives to the Internet, and traditional media have been impacted, and TV stations will not be an exception." Last year, there were only 14 TV dramas with national ratings breaking 1, and 28 the year before last. Variety shows are even worse, there are only 11 in total with ratings breaking 1, and 29 the year before last, at this rate, how is this year?"
Wei Ning blurted out: "Isn't that because Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Taiwan are stupid?"
Jiangsu and Zhejiang Taiwan is known as a variety show platform, the year before last was really big, there were 15 variety shows with 1 rating, but there were only 3 last year, and one accounted for two-thirds of the total decline. But this tragic situation has not been as miserable as the TV series, no TV series in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Taiwan last year had a rating of more than 1 in the whole year, the highest "Peace Hotel" 0.9, and in 2017, there were "Ode to Joy 2" and "Three Lives and Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" to support the faΓ§ade.
"It doesn't really matter which station it is, have you observed such a phenomenon, the network comprehensive is doing well, the second and third parts are alive and well, but the Taiwan comprehensive is not, even if the first season is good, the follow-up is far away is the norm. β
"The one you're talking about is a slow variety show. "Jixia School Palace" is not a type. Wei Ning's kung fu is still quite good, and Chu Yuanxi's PK data is not lagging behind at all: "And you just talked about TV dramas, I don't know if you know that Celestial Dynasty TV dramas are divided into big and small years, and even number years TV dramas are not good, otherwise why do I want "Out of the Mountain in Troubled Times" to be released this year? This year will definitely be a big year, and it will not work next year. β
Chu Yuan Xixin said that you are quite superstitious? The problem is that the law of Dota 2 winning the championship in even years has been broken, how long can you maintain this year? This year it is estimated that you will break the spell and break through that kind of downward.
However, he was very satisfied with Wei Ning's reaction, because he wanted to change the concept: "Cough, in short, I judge that high-quality variety shows will be very good on the Internet in the future, and it is easy to become popular, not necessarily right, a family." β
Speaking of this, Chu Yuanxi was about to take it away, and said in his heart that if he held the shelf again, Wei Ning might retreat and have to hang strongly.
Guan Xin felt that he needed to ask for benefits from his colleagues in the variety show department, and if this project was to come, the KPI must be very large.
And Wei Ning is now under pressure to KPIs. The management structure of Taishan TV is different from that of many modern satellite TVs, and those who can do things are very guilty, and he is the kind of person who suffers, and he must try to fight for any obviously good opportunity. If you let it go easily, who knows if there will be a similar opportunity this year?
So he decided to save it again: "Mr. Chu, how long is the future you are talking about?"
"Three years?" Chu Yuanxi estimated by patting his head: "Mr. Wei, high-quality content is always high-quality content, I prefer to give the screenwriter more time, polish it carefully, and hold back a big move in three years, which is not too long." β
"No, no, no, Mr. Chu, you may know more about film and television dramas, but variety shows are really not like this, if you have any ideas, you have to cash them out quickly, let alone three years, you can't afford to wait for two years. Wei Ning felt that this was a breakthrough, "I don't believe you ask Mr. Guan, has Youtu's variety show been grinding for two years?"
"It's really not, it's generally about half a year after the idea is proposed, and it's about a year old. Guan Xin nodded, and then left himself some leeway: "But variety shows are not the same as variety shows, most variety shows rely on form and creativity, as well as stars, and the script is not so particular." Mr. Chu's requirements for the script are very high, and it is okay to take a little longer. β
Chu Yuanxi was not very satisfied with Guan Xin's reaction, Guan Xin had better give Wei Ning a little more strength to help him, and not pay attention to the horse.
He is now "building momentum", causing himself to be in a hurry but Wei Ning is very anxious, causing himself to want to take the Internet variety as a supplement to the main satellite TV, and causing Taishan TV to beg himself to open this variety show. The reason why such a deliberate momentum is because if you want to completely dominate the project and let Taishan Station act as a pure broadcast platform without pointing fingers at him or getting in the way, you have to adjust the other party's mentality to this situation.
In fact, what wait for three years, Chu Yuanxi is all nonsense, after three years, it is impossible for him to have any interest in doing variety shows, even if he does, he will let his subordinates do it, and do variety shows, mainly to help the well-off, and it can't be later than next year at the latest!
