Chapter 1068 - A Derivative TV Series That Is Doomed to Success

The prime time for the broadcast of American dramas is from September to March of the following year.

Because in April and August, when the weather is sunny and everything starts to recover, everyone loves outdoor activities, so there are fewer people watching TV.

Huaguo is different, as long as you have a good TV series, people will watch it whenever it is broadcast.

After all, the population of Huaguo is about 4 times that of the United States, and the population base of watching TV series is very large.

Therefore, the period after the Spring Festival has become the point of contention for the first wave of ratings throughout the year.

In this regard, Shanhai.com, which already has the supremacy of online ratings, has not been soft at all.

As soon as they made a move, they were king bombs.

As early as during the Spring Festival, there was a preview on the various video advertisements of Shanhai.com.

"In March, please pay attention to Shanhai.com, "The Gift of Room No. 7" is about to be launched!"

"Huaguo's No. 1 film at the global box office, Huaguo's No. 1 book in recent years, and the most performed drama in the history of Huaguo drama in two years...... Now, it's finally time for a TV series!"

"Teacher Xu Gu, a drama master with hundreds of performance experience, plays Li Chenglong, and Li Wei, a national elf, plays Li Yiyuan...... What kind of difference will they have with the combination of Guo Hang and Yang Shu?"

"It took half a year to shoot, spent more than 100 million yuan, and the whole movie was created in real life!"

"Shanhai.com and Fengxiang Film and Television jointly launched, the biggest surprise of this year, so stay tuned!"

“......”

Looking at such rounds of publicity, it is enough to make the fans of "The Gift of Room No. 7" excited.

In the past few years, if you want to say that the most successful IP in China, it is "The Gift of Room No. 7".

It's impossible to adapt it into a game, but in other respects, it's definitely top-notch.

Whether it is books, movies or dramas, "The Gift of Room No. 7" has delivered the first place in the country.

Around "The Gift of Room No. 7", some people conservatively estimate that Teacher Chu Liuxiang has earned at least 1 billion yuan!

Exaggerated no?

Write a book and make 1 billion in the end!

I'm afraid this is something that any best-selling author would envy and hate, right?

Even on the side of the United States, their royalties are high, and the cost of adapting movies is also high, but there are absolutely few such benefits.

For China, it was an unprecedented first.

Now that the TV version of "The Gift of Room No. 7" has come out, everyone speculates that it must be to add tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of profits to Teacher Chu Liuxiang!

No way, who said that the fans of "The Gift of Room No. 7" have hundreds of millions of fans in all of Asia?

And so it is.

Before "The Gift of Room No. 7" was broadcast, Shanhai.com revealed the purchase price early.

300 million.

Shanhai.com spent 300 million yuan to win the premiere right of "The Gift of Room No. 7", as well as the exclusive broadcast right of the global network.

It means that if the global online audience wants to watch, they must come to Shanhai.com to watch it.

Other countries can only buy the second round of broadcasting rights by TV stations, and they have to wait until Shanhai Network finishes broadcasting.

Therefore, the 300 million is certainly worth it.

Don't think that Fengxiang Film and Television has taken advantage, in fact, there have been rumors for a long time, Youyi.com, which has been robbed in the limelight in the past two years, has also opened a price of 250 million yuan, and even 300 million yuan, but was rejected by Mr. Lu Xiaofeng without hesitation.

Everyone laughed when they heard the news.

They all understand what it means.

Who told you to offend Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang back then?

Although you Youyi.com said that "there is no grudge in business", but people just don't want to cooperate with you, what can you do?

Want revenge?

Hehe!

Do you know what it means to be a world-class mathematician who solved Fermat's theorem?

Don't mention this.

For Fengxiang Film and Television, this purchase cost is also a big profit.

In fact, filming "The Gift of Room No. 7", because most of the actors selected are in the drama version, they are very experienced, and the price is not expensive, so the filming is very easy.

It took about 2 months to shoot, and the post-production was completed in a month.

The overall cost is controlled within 50 million yuan.

Director Hu Zhenshu took 5 million, which is the most.

In terms of actors, Mr. Xu Gu got the most, 3 million.

And Li Yiyuan's actor Li Wei only took 1 million. - Zhang Shihan, another drama starring, was directly rejected by Xin Changkong because her mother Lion asked for 3 million.

The rest of the supporting roles are about 30-800,000 yuan, and the salary ratio is very well controlled.

But even if this investment in income ratio is announced, Xin Changkong is not worried about the envy and jealousy of outsiders.

Because everyone knows that Teacher Chu Liuxiang and Teacher Lu Xiaofeng, almost all of their income so far has been donated to the education cause of mountain villages, and the hundreds of mountain schools are proof one after another.

Photos and videos of "Lu Xiaofeng No. 7 Primary School" and "Chu Liuxiang No. 18 Middle School" can be seen everywhere on the Internet.

There is a netizen who claims that he wants to visit all the schools donated by Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng, but more than a year has passed, and he has not finished walking, and everyone is about to collapse.

Fortunately, each of his videos has been played by at least millions of people, which has brought him a lot of reward income to support, otherwise the big guys estimate that he would have to be depressed.

These have given the two bosses the biggest talisman, no one can say anything, there is a kind of you also donate so much to give it a try?

So even after Shanhai.com announced the price of 300 million, what people discussed the most was only "Shanhai.com, a big dog family, is so rich", not "Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng, the two people, made so much money!"

In any case, the purchase price of 300 million TV series is like a sky-high price.

Although it is not as good as the overall income of 500 million yuan from "Yue Prison" because of overseas income, as a TV series that relies almost exclusively on the domestic and Asian markets, "The Gift of Room No. 7" is enough to be proud of.

It was also in this kind of anticipation that "The Gift of Room No. 7" was officially released and broadcast on Shanhai.com.

The two episodes that aired on the first day got off to a great start.

directly watched online with a record of up to 270 million people watching online and an average of 130 million people watching, which shocked the whole network.

Although this achievement includes viewers from Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, it almost broke the highest number of viewers of 300 million, and the average number of viewers who are firmly above 100 million viewers are enough to make Shanhai.com laugh in their dreams.

In the comment area of Shanhai.com's "The Gift of Room No. 7", every second is refreshed, and there are hundreds of comments.

"Woo~~ Why did I cry in the first episode?"

"My favorite is Xiao Yiyuan, whether it is Yang Shu's version, or Li Wei's drama version, or Zhang Shihan's drama version, I have watched them all! But now watching the TV series version, I still can't hold back my eyes red!"

"I was most worried that the director and screenwriter would mess around and ruin our classics! But now it seems that this rhythm is very well controlled! Lao Xin, as the director, is really good!"

"Yes, whether it is Teacher Xu Gu or Li Wei's children, they have a good grasp of the essence and perform so well!"

"They don't have any exaggerated sense of drama at all! so restrained, so serious, so real...... What should I do, I want to continue watching but I'm afraid to cry~~"

"Who isn't like this? I'm with my mom and my dad, and the three of us can't stand it after watching two episodes! Obviously, the plot is quite easy now!"
