Chapter 128: The Blockbuster Producer (End)
In the first season of "Looking for a Good Voice", the rest of the life group won the championship without suspense, among which a handsome boy named Zhou Ang and a girl named Wang Ruonan performed particularly prominently, and gained super popularity throughout the competition.
Especially Wang Ruonan, the video of her singing "The Year in a Hurry" during the audition has exceeded 10 million views, and she quickly became popular because of Yu Sheng'an's evaluation of "the voice kissed by angels", and her ethereal and fairy voice not only passed all the way, but also accumulated a large number of fans, and Weibo and Douyin fans have also exceeded one million.
Of course, Zhou Ang and Wang Ruonan finally signed a contract with Universal Entertainment and became artists under Yu Sheng'an.
On the whole, the first season of "Looking for a Good Voice" can be called a perfect ending, whether it is the ratings, the number of webcast clicks, the popularity of the topic or the quality of the artists who finally debuted, they are all excellent, and "Turning Around for You" has also become a hot stalk on the whole network.
In fact, just halfway through the show, Sky Blue Satellite TV renewed the second season with Yu Sheng'an.
Not to talk about the competition process, the competition itself is also a popular show.
After "Looking for a Good Voice" came to an end, Yu Sheng'an's musical focus was on cultivating new talents, and he successively produced their first albums for Zhou Ang and Wang Ruonan as a producer, and wrote the title song for them.
The title song written for Zhou Ang is "The Heart Is Too Soft", as soon as this song was launched, it immediately became popular and resounded through the streets and alleys, and Zhou Ang became famous and became a new super popular singer.
The new song written for Wang Ruonan is "Legend", and after it was launched, it was also a big hit.
In addition, it may be that Boss Yu intends to take care of female singers, or has a preference, there is also a new song "Because of Love" in her new album, Yu Shengan personally sang and recorded with her, which can be said to be a good boss in Huaxia.
With Yu Sheng'an, a music producer and the big boss of the company, the newly signed singer, as long as his singing skills are online, he will basically be able to come out soon.
It is reasonable for the business of Universal Entertainment Music to rise to the ground.
In the summer, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was completed and entered post-production, and several other scripts in preparation were also created, and began to negotiate cooperation with major production companies.
In today's market, trust in Yu Sheng'an and Universal Entertainment's music business is superstitious, so as long as there is a cooperation in this area, it can basically be negotiated quickly.
However, in terms of film and television production, because Universal Entertainment has not yet made achievements, negotiations are a normal process, and everyone values the influence of Bai Qingyan, Su Manling and Gu Qingmei, focusing on the script itself.
Actually, that's enough.
The several scripts that the screenwriter's studio came up with, except for "Answer 1988", were all discussed smoothly and quickly advanced to the next step.
As for "1988", many companies are discouraged after reading the script, without it, the script is too bland and too ordinary, and the volume of about an hour per episode for a total of 20 episodes scares all the production companies away.
At present, the domestic TV drama ecology, a single episode of 40 minutes is already the sky, and the number of episodes is naturally as many as possible, if the IP is better, at least 50 episodes start, and the broadcast effect is good, it can be dismantled again, and a finale can be played in three parts.
According to this line of thinking, "1988" can be split into 40 episodes, and Gu Qingmei has even proposed to do so, after all, the script is the first priority, but Yu Shengan still rejected it very decisively.
"The main reason why they talk about the number of episodes from time to time is that they don't have confidence in the script, and they just find an excuse. ”
Yu Sheng'an analyzed the producer's mentality, and then emphasized his insistence: "And the reason why I am reluctant to split is that I don't want to spoil the look and feel of the series. ”
"In addition, our domestic film and television dramas follow the trend too quickly, but they are generally reluctant to take new risks, and the first thing producers often ask after getting a script is, is there any successful work in the market for this drama?"
As an insider, how could Gu Qingmei not know this situation, with a smile of "I understand", and said, "So, you mean that you want to make this drama a benchmark?"
Yu Sheng'an nodded and said, "That's what it means." ”
"But ......"
"I voted for this drama myself. Yu Sheng'an immediately made a decision.
"Vote for yourself?" Gu Qingmei looked suspicious.
Yu Sheng'an knew what she was worried about, nothing more than worrying about the benefits.
"Yes, vote for yourself, and then sign a gambling and playback agreement with the air news video, calculate the income according to the VIP entrance and the number of clicks, such as signing for two years, if you hit the street, forget it, if you can get up, and then sell it to major TV stations, and at the same time renew the contract with the air news, to ensure that there has always been cash inflow, and the water will flow for a long time. ”
Gu Qingmei listened suddenly, and at the same time had a new understanding of Yu Sheng'an, but he didn't expect this musical genius to have such a clear businessman thinking.
"1988" began to advance under Yu Sheng'an's "arbitrariness".
The big boss has already made a decision, and others will naturally have no objections, plus it is a vigorous new company, and Yu Sheng'an's prestige is flourishing day by day, so the project is explained, including Cao Mulan, they are actively cooperating.
Therefore, although "1988" is a little behind several other scripts, the overall progress is not too far behind.
By October, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was launched, and the whole of China set off a martial arts hurricane that swept across the north and south of the country.
In this hurricane, the song "Iron Blood Pill Heart" is like a rumbling war drum, and the series complements each other.
In the autumn of 2014, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, East Evil West, Poison, Southern Emperor and Northern Beggar, as well as kung fu such as Eighteen Palms of the Dragon and Dog Sticks became hot words on the Internet.
Countless martial arts fans and TV series fans are silent in this vast, novel, moving, and atmospheric martial arts world, their moods fluctuate with the ups and downs of Jing Rong's fate, and their emotions change with the advancement of the plot.
When the drama was broadcast to Jing Rong and Huang Rong designed Hong Qigong to teach Guo Jing to descend to the dragon's palm, the ratings of the TV series began to dominate the first place in the same period and continued until the finale.
With the popularity of the series, Meng Chunxiao, the actor of Huang Rong, unsurprisingly began to become popular, and Yang Kang played by Yang Kang, who became as popular as her.
On any level, "Condor Shooting" has been a huge success and has become a well-deserved hit of the year.
In the face of this success, all previous doubts have vanished.
Universal Entertainment's first foray into television was a resounding victory.
In fact, after the TV broadcast ended, with the fermentation of word-of-mouth, the broadcast index of the Internet also kept doubling upward, and what matched this heat, everyone began to collectively call for the second part.
"Hurry up and release the second part, I want to see the story behind Jing Rong!"
"I want to know how Jing Rong guards Xiangyang!"
"Compared with everyone's attention to Jing Rong, I pay more attention to the East Evil West Poison Southern Emperor and Northern Beggar, and I feel that their story is not over. ”
"So, is there a second part?"
……
The voices of thousands of netizens will eventually converge into the voices of capital.
TV stations, video playback platforms, producers and other units all came to ask about the second part, of course, it was not so much a question as a reminder, and they all took money to urge.
Judging from the reputation and influence of the first part, the level of the second part does not need to be raised, and a slight decline is a sure-fire business.
Kongxun Video directly released a message to Yu Sheng'an, as long as you agree to do the second part, you don't need to read the script and finished product, and 600 million yuan is guaranteed to buy out the exclusive network broadcast rights.
Sky Blue Satellite TV also promised that each episode of the second part could add 1 million.
As for the investor, not to mention, if you want money and money, you want people to have people, just wait for the rest of your life.
"Don't worry, the second part will be done, not only that, the Condor series, will do a trilogy. ”
In the face of everyone's urging, Yu Shengan finally gave a positive answer.
Everyone was happy.
