Chapter 336: It's Despicable!
In fact, the official theme song of "Xuanyuan Sword" was also forced to be helpless.
When Tang Ren Film and Television Group learned that Li Yi released three theme songs related to the new drama, and in just one night, netizens' expectations for Xianjian were raised.
Min Guotang couldn't sit still, he hurriedly held a meeting and quickly decided to release a new song at eight o'clock tomorrow night, at the same time and on the same music platform!
Xuanyuan Jian's theme song is called "A Kiss to the Sky", and in order to save money, the crew did not choose to hand over the theme song to Hu Sing, but chose other singers.
But later, the management of "Xuanyuan Sword" found that the publicity momentum of "Fairy Sword" was getting stronger and stronger, and Tang Ren Film and Television had to grit his teeth and choose Huge to sing the theme song again.
After all, Hu Ge is the most famous in the entire crew of "Xuanyuan Sword".
Now in order to compete for popularity, Li Yi's "Fairy Sword" can't be allowed to suppress the limelight, and Tang Ren Film and Television can only make a lot of money!
In any case, this ratings war must not be lost!
But at eight o'clock in the evening of the next day, after the release of the theme song of "Xuanyuan Sword" "A Kiss of the Sky", many people said that they did not have that kind of Xianxia feelings.
"I can hear that Hu Ge is singing very hard, but I just don't feel that way. ”
"I'm the same, if you look at the sound and the song alone, it's good, but it's not as good as the three songs I listened to yesterday. ”
"Yes, I still like the three theme songs of "Sword and Fairy". ”
On Weibo, forums, and post bars, more and more people compare "Xuanyuan Sword" with "Fairy Sword", but gradually, the expectation and popularity of Fairy Sword have obviously overshadowed "Xuanyuan Sword"!
......
In the office of Mango Terrace, Director Jiang was holding the data analysis report that had just been released and was looking at it seriously.
When Director Jiang finalized the film and television copyright fee for the first 20 episodes of "Fairy Sword" for 120 million, he couldn't sleep almost every day.
That's a 120 million deal!
Other high-level executives in the station are actually reluctant to buy this film and television copyright, after all, Mango Channel's funds have never been abundant, and now all the profits from "Singer" have been taken out.
If the ratings of "Fairy Sword" cannot meet expectations, the money invested will not be recovered at all.
At that time, it is very likely that he will face the possibility of review or even suspension!
It's a bet!
It can be said that for the better prospects of Mango Station and the future of the market, Director Jiang gambled on his future.
It was only after Li Yi released three new songs and promoted the stills on Weibo that Director Jiang's heart fell slightly.
After all, now the audience on the whole network has raised the expectations of this drama to the highest!
The current Director Jiang can't wait for the days to pass faster, and it's best to open his eyes tomorrow, which is the day when "Fairy Sword" will be broadcast!
Compared with Director Jiang's peace of mind, Director Feng Chuan of Golden Eagle Channel is much more uncomfortable.
Although the current "Xuanyuan Sword" is quite popular in the same type of TV series, he still inevitably regrets it in the face of the expectations of "Fairy Sword".
"I knew that I would spend another 50 million to buy the copyright of the twenty episodes of "Fairy Sword"!"
The days passed, but the two masterpieces of "Fairy Sword" and "Xuanyuan Sword" continued to ferment.
Soon, the review of "Fairy Sword" and "Xuanyuan Sword" passed before and after!
"Fairy Sword" is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. on Friday this week on Mango Channel and Aiqiyi platform at the same time!
As for the number of episodes, Mango TV chose to simulcast two episodes in prime time, while Aiqiyi synchronized with the TV station, and two episodes were updated every day.
When the start time of "Fairy Sword" was determined, "Xuanyuan Sword" also painted a scoop according to the gourd, and even set the start time for the broadcast at 8 o'clock on Friday night!
But unlike "Fairy Sword", the number of episodes on the first day of "Xuanyuan Sword" is five!
There are three more episodes than "Sword and Fairy"!
When Director Jiang learned the news, he scolded: "This shameless Golden Eagle Channel! It's too despicable! In order to keep the ratings, it actually aired five episodes in one night!"
No one expected that Golden Eagle Terrace would distribute all the time period from eight o'clock to eleven o'clock in the golden period to "Xuanyuan Sword".
In fact, this is indeed a good method, in order to win better ratings, the first day of the premiere of five episodes, the purpose is to retain more viewers!
Director Jiang anxiously walked back and forth in the office.
He finally dialed Li Yi's phone.
"Hey, Director Jiang. ”
Director Jiang first said tentatively: "Mr. Li Yi, didn't bother you, did you?"
Li Yi had just finished filming the latest scene, and he didn't even have time to wipe his sweat, but he still said: "It's okay, what's the matter?"
"That's right, just now Golden Eagle Channel announced the start of "Xuanyuan Sword", and they chose to go at eight o'clock this Saturday night. ”
When Li Yi heard it, he thought it was interesting: "It's such a coincidence, they are also eight o'clock." ”
After Director Jiang heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh, and you are still in the mood to joke.
But he continued: "And the number of episodes that Golden Eagle started the night before was five!"
"So much?" Li Yi had actually read the official news, but he was still deliberately surprised.
"yes, so I'm wondering if we need ...... here" Director Jiang was interrupted by Li Yi when he said this.
Li Yi said calmly: "Director Jiang, don't worry, the number of episodes does not mean that you can retain the audience, I am confident that we will be able to win the ratings battle on Saturday!"
"Mr. Li Yi is so sure?" Director Jiang was skeptical.
"Don't worry, I'll continue filming first, after all, there are more than a dozen episodes in the future. ”
Li Yi hung up the phone.
Director Jiang looked at the screen of his mobile phone and had mixed feelings in his heart.
Of course you're calm!
Because I gave you 120 million, not you!
After listening to Li Yi's confident assurance, Director Jiang finally decided not to add episodes and keep the original official news unchanged!
Because the pre-publicity of "Fairy Sword" has been done sufficiently, Li Yi has not paid much attention to this aspect.
Now he still has to focus on filming.
The filming is nearing the end, and after nearly two months of getting along, Li Yi and Yang Xiaomi and others have become friends.
They also joked with each other while filming.
Just when everyone was resting, Yang Xiaomi suddenly asked Li Yi: "Hey, Brother Yi, there are so many good-looking girls in our circle, have you taken a fancy to any of them? I'll help you be a matchmaker." ”
Li Yile said: "Look at what you said, I am a person who pays attention to the inside and does not look at the appearance. ”
Huo Jianhua deeply agreed: "Me too. ”
Tang Yan snickered: "Then I am the same." ”
"Wow, you're really shameless. Yang Xiaomi was speechless.
When she saw that Liu Shisi on the side didn't speak, she hurriedly asked, "Shisi, do you have any girlfriends to introduce to Brother Yi." ”
"When I hear this, why do I feel like I can't marry a wife?" Li Yi asked Yang Xiaomi rhetorically.
Yang Xiaomi explained: "I'm not afraid that one of the five of us will be married, and you will still be single." ”
“......”
Li Yi would not allow such a thing to happen, after all, how could he be regarded as a jade-faced little green dragon with white stripes in the waves, how could no one like it?
After everyone chatted for a while, director Li Guoli clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay! Have you rested enough? Let's continue filming!"
......
Li Yi no longer pays attention to the promotion of "Fairy Sword", after all, after having stills and theme songs, the topic of the drama "Fairy Sword" on major social platforms has not stopped at all, and the popularity has been maintained at a high level.
On the contrary, on the side of "Xuanyuan Sword", Tang Ren Film and Television has made a lot of money, not only spending a lot of money on advertisements in locations such as advertising stop signs and subway entrances, but also on some variety shows to promote the warm-up before the broadcast.
On the one hand, there is Buddhist propaganda, relying on the word of mouth of netizens, and on the other hand, it is making a big show and taking a high-profile route.
Now that it is on the Internet, it is overwhelming with news about these two dramas, which has hyped the topic of film and television to the extreme.
Those netizens who didn't plan to chase these two parts in the first place were also attracted.
Finally, four days later, under the expectation of everyone, it was finally time for "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III" and "Xuanyuan Sword: Traces of Heaven" to be broadcast!
