Chapter 733 Lao Yi conveyed the intention of cooperation
As Sun Quan expected, the popularity of the drama "Last Wish of the Dead" has increased dramatically after the number of views of the cool video exceeded 10 million.
In the next two days, the total number of viewers of the show exceeded 25 million.
After the last two episodes of this drama were launched, the number of viewers exceeded 30 million at more than 2 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, and at noon the next day, it exceeded more than 41 million.
Seeing that this online drama with only 14 episodes stood out from a number of TV dramas in the same period and became the third place in Youku Video's weekly TV series on-demand rankings.
Note!
Here is talking about all the TV series with cool video, as for the same type of web drama?
In other words, the data of this drama has skyrocketed in recent days, which should be related to the fact that it has entered the top ten of Youku Video's weekly TV series on-demand list.
Since reaching the top 10 on this list, the number of viewers of this show has doubled.
And Youku Video is also very powerful, and did not deliberately suppress the popularity of this drama in order to pay less copyright fees, not only did it not suppress it, but on the morning of the last two episodes of this drama was launched, a big push was arranged for "The Last Wish of the Dead".
Together with several popular dramas in the same period, it is ranked at the top of the homepage of the entire website in the form of a large cover, which is very conspicuous.
And with the help of this big closure push, coupled with the fact that all 14 episodes of this drama have been launched, the popularity of this drama will remain high for many consecutive days, and the number of viewers and comments will soar.
As a result, on the third day of the big closure, "Wish of the Dead" topped the weekly TV series on-demand list.
became the champion of the week's TV series on demand.
At the same time, during this time, the popularity of "Dead Wishes" has also been expanding rapidly, and it is very similar to the posture after the hit "Soul Ferry" in the original time and space.
For many people who love to follow dramas online, this drama is very attractive.
Because many people who have watched this drama on the Internet and around me say that the style of this drama is completely different from traditional TV dramas, and it is very exciting.
In addition, this show only has 14 episodes, which makes many people who didn't plan to watch this show want to give it a try.
This is probably the benefit of short-term and short-term!
If the TV series is too long, many people may frown, feeling that they don't have so much time to chase such a long drama, so they simply don't order it.
Not only that, how many Chinese people don't know about the urine sex of domestic dramas?
The kind of drama with the number of episodes is often forty or fifty episodes, many people don't need to watch it to know that there must be serious water injection, and it is even very likely that a large number of sections of the drama are deliberately made, forcibly abusing the male and female protagonists, and also forcibly abusing the audience.
And 14 episodes of a TV series......
The reputation is so good, when it first appeared in the eyes of some netizens, it was like in a group of dinosaur girls, and suddenly saw a girl with clear eyebrows.
The refreshing feeling is the same as the feeling of suddenly feeling a breeze in the hot summer.
Then many of them, with an attitude of curiosity and trying, tried to watch the first episode, and soon found that the style of this show was really different from those bewitching goods.
The taste in the bones is different.
will not forcibly create a bloody plot, and there is no domestic TV series where you love me, I love him, but he loves dogs.
Almost all of the routines are brand new.
Since it is brand new, the so-called routine is not a routine in everyone's opinion.
And at the end of each episode of this show, the suspense left behind is like a hook, hooking people to the point that they can't stop, and before they know it, they will continue to watch the next episode.
For this reason, some people couldn't help but stay up late to watch, and originally planned to stay up for an hour and fall asleep, but as a result, they saw the dawn in one breath.
Moreover, the reason why I found out that it was dawn was because I watched all this drama in an all-night time, and because after watching it all, I looked up and found that it was dawn outside.
......
In the past few days, Sun Quan noticed that on the author's forum, he had almost praised this drama.
Almost no one said that the show was not good.
Everyone talked about it with great interest, and by the way, they also ridiculed traditional domestic dramas.
Many authors are quite proud.
You can see a sense of pride in their posts.
Such as: "Hehe, I said a long time ago, domestic dramas are garbage!
"Those screenwriters in China have long been outdated, and those vulgar bloody plots, if they are written on the Internet, they will definitely not know their mothers!"
"Salted fish is really happy this time! Let those guys who make TV series in China take a good look, what is a good-looking TV series!"
"Every year when I see those remakes of Jin Yong's dramas, I want to vomit, since I was a child, how many times have those people remade them?
""The Last Wish of the Dead" has ripped off the fig leaf that domestic dramas are always fried with cold rice!"
......
Because of these days' posts, Sun Quan's frequency on the author's forum has increased a lot in recent days, because it is really refreshing to quietly watch so many peers praise him.
In fact, not only there are so many similar statements on the author's forum.
In the past few days, he has seen a lot of similar comments in his scarf and in the book review area of "The Wishes of the Dead".
He knows that there are too many such remarks, which may make many people in the film and television industry hostile to him and his salted fish film and television.
But he didn't panic.
Being a low-key person and doing things in a high-profile manner has always been what he believes in.
In terms of life, he can be low-key, in terms of doing things, he has no low-key habits, and he is a mediocre talent not to be envied.
or a big fire, or a halberd sinking into the sand, and the company goes bankrupt.
Between the big red fire and the bankruptcy of the company, he naturally hoped for the big red fire.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Sun Quan was on the author's forum to see how everyone praised him, and his mobile phone rang.
At a glance, I accidentally found the caller ID, and it was the vice president of the starting point, Lao Yi.
He frowned slightly, quite surprised.
Immediately took the mobile phone to connect the call, I was curious about what Lao Yi was looking for him again?
Is it urging me to release a new book as soon as possible?
There's no need, isn't it? Wouldn't it be enough to ask the editor-in-charge or the editor-in-chief to urge it? Is it necessary for the vice president to call in person?
This was the doubt in his mind.
It was quickly unraveled.
Lao Yi: "Salted fish! Congratulations! Your "Wish of the Dead" is really popular, the recent popularity is really amazing, it must have surprised many people, hehe, congratulations!"
As soon as the phone was called, Lao Yi's congratulatory words came into Sun Quan's ears.
Just to congratulate?
Sun Quan didn't believe it, but he didn't rush to ask, "Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Yi!"
He was waiting for Lao Yi to take the initiative to get down to business.
But Lao Yi didn't get straight to the point, but asked: "By the way, how is your new book prepared?
Sun Quan: "Fortunately, the outline and detailed outline have been written, and I should be able to write the main text tonight, allow me to save some manuscripts and send a new book when I find a time." ”
Whatever Lao Yi asked, Sun Quan answered.
Anyway, he didn't take the initiative to ask what Lao Yi wanted to say.
And Lao Yi didn't seem to be in a hurry, "Hehe, okay! Good news! I've been looking forward to it for a long time, when your new book is released, I will definitely appreciate it as soon as possible, I really want to wear it, hehe." ”
Sun Quan: "Hehe, okay, I must hurry up, as soon as possible!"
Lao Yi: "Well, don't worry, just follow your pace, well, by the way, the show "Wish of the Dead" is currently the first season, and there should be a second season later, right?"
Sun Quan's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled, "Yes, there is not only a second season, but also a third season, and the script for the second season is almost written, and it should start filming soon, alas! Speaking of this, I am also very annoyed, and it is estimated that it will affect the update of my new book again." ”
Lao Yi: "......"
After a silence, Lao Yicai smiled and said: "Hehe, you are a happy trouble, I won't comfort you, well, salted fish......! Your works in the past few years have been released at our starting point, we should be regarded as an old cooperative relationship, and the IP plan that the head office has vigorously promoted in the past two years, I think you should know about it, so ...... You see...... In the second and third seasons of this drama, can you consider cooperating with our company? Well, I believe you also know the strength of our head office, and in terms of funds, it is still abundant.
Moreover, in addition to the financial aspect, we can help you, in terms of publicity and distribution, and other aspects, our company should also be able to help you a lot, such as the advertising we started to help you do before the launch of your drama this time, and for example, in the name of our head office, it should be able to help you invite some big stars in the industry, hehe, how about it?
This should be the real purpose of Lao Yi's call today.
Sun Quan only listened to a few words, and he wanted to laugh a little.
Laugh happily.
In other words, when the first season of this drama was being filmed, he thought about pulling the starting point to work together.
After all, he has been publishing at the starting point, and the game adaptation rights and film and television adaptation rights of his works have not been handed over to the starting point, and the starting point has matched several times, found interested companies, and wanted to buy the copyright of his works, but he resolutely refused.
There are many times of rejection, and he himself feels that he is a little excessive, too little to give face to the leaders of the starting point, compare his heart to his heart, put himself in the other party's position to think about it, if he is the leader of the starting point, there is such a faceless author under his website, he himself can't help but put small shoes on the other party.
For example, in the recommendation position of the work, do not give the top recommendation position to the other party.
In addition, he also knows that the starting point in recent years is indeed not bad for money.
Not only because the profitability of the starting point has increased greatly in recent years, but the manuscript fee on the wireless side has been divided a lot, but the most important thing is that the head office above the starting point, and the largest financier behind the head office, Shanda Group, are definitely not bad money.
So, at that time, he thought: If this drama can cooperate with the starting point, there will be really many benefits.
For example, investment, such as helping to promote and publish, such as helping to invite star actors, and so on.
It's a pity that the starting point at that time was not optimistic about the prospects of his drama, and he was not interested in cooperating with him at all, and he didn't even negotiate with him, so he politely declined.
Now, his drama has succeeded, and the number of viewers is getting higher and higher, and the total number of viewers of this drama has exceeded 40 million in about ten days after it was launched.
It is foreseeable that the popularity of this drama will continue to rise for a period of time in the future.
So, it's time for that.
Before, he wanted to pull the starting point to work together, but now, does he still need to pull the starting point to cooperate?
Two days ago, Xue Zihan Ke said in a video conference with him, Wang Zheng, and Tao Yujuan that Youku Video has proposed to cooperate in filming the second and third seasons of this show.
Not only cool videos, but also several film and television companies of different sizes in the film and television industry have contacted Salted Fish Film and Television, hoping to work together.
Compared with video websites like Cool Video, as well as those professional film and television companies in the film and television industry, how much is the cooperation intention of the starting point attractive to Sun Quan?
Sun Quan remembers the original time and space, for a period of time, there was a popular saying in the WeChat circle of friends and on the Internet: If you ignore me today, I will make you unattainable in the future.
Of course, these words just flashed through his mind very mischievously at this time, making him want to laugh a little, and he didn't really plan to do so.
You can't be too arrogant.
"Hehe, Mr. Yi, there are a lot of partners who want to cooperate with us to shoot the second and third seasons now, so, hehe, seriously, we are really not short of investment in Salted Fish Film and Television now, really, so ......"
He didn't say the rest of the story.
But the meaning seems to be obvious.
But is this what someone really thinks?
Not necessarily!
It depends on whether the starting point is willing to give him a hard stab.
This is also the main reason why he didn't say it to death, he knows very well what the biggest weakness of the IP plan that the starting point is currently tossing is.
- That is, the concept is very beautiful, game adaptation rights and film and television adaptation rights, etc., have indeed been sold, but there are no successful film and television drama cases at present!
In Sun Quan's memory, the original time and space, the IP plan of the starting point, did not suddenly glow with vigor until the release of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Looking for the Dragon" a few years later became popular.
Before that, there were a lot of film and television drama adaptations sold at the starting point, but basically one adaptation was a bad one.
may be reasonable in terms of ratings, but in terms of word-of-mouth, none of them have succeeded.
The starting point and the author have made money by selling the adaptation rights of film and television dramas, but they are still far from the effect that the head office wants.
Because what Brother Qiang, the CEO of the head office, wants, is obviously hoping to create a domestic Marvel company.
And why is Marvel so good?
Isn't it because superhero movies adapted from Marvel Comics have swept the global box office, and how many billions of dollars has been spent at the box office of a Marvel movie?
Therefore, Sun Quan believes that after seeing the popularity and word-of-mouth explosion of "Dead Wishes", what he wants to do most is to become a cooperative investor in the next two seasons of this show, even if it is not for anything else, just to buy a reputation, the starting point should be willing.
Therefore, Sun Quan's heart actually does not exclude the starting point to participate in investment, provided that they are willing to give more money and less shares?
