Chapter 786: The ratings are out

"Director!!

“su!!!”

"The ratings are out!"

Several big men shouted and rushed over.

As soon as Su Yan got up, he was hugged by Jimmy and them, and his ears were almost deafened by their shouts, which was somewhat similar to the players in the pardon competition.

"Calm, calm. Su Yan patted them on the shoulder: "How much?"

The three of them glanced at each other.

"8.6 million!"

"Really!?" Su Yan's eyes widened: "You didn't lie to me?"

"Yes, I didn't lie to you. Jimmy shook his fist hard and gave the Chinese director a big hug: "We did it, we did it!"

Su Yan's mind was blank for a few seconds, of course he knew what the concept of 8.6 million was.

The highest-rated American drama, with about 18 million viewers, in the United States, variety shows and TV dramas are difficult to compete, basically speaking, it can be stable at 4 million, that is, it can be broadcast as a long-term program.

The audience referred to here is the age group of 18-49 years old, and the others are not counted.

8.6 million, which is placed in the TV series, can also be ranked in the top 20 of the year, Jimmy's previous talk show results are good, but it is also in the early 6 million, unless you invite any heavyweight guests, it is possible to break through 800.

When an assistant director saw that there was still beer on the ground, he opened it directly, and the four of them clinked glasses.

What is the best-rated program in the United States?

"Oprah Talk Show", this show has been on the air for 23 years, attracting more than 20 million viewers every week, no one has been able to break it so far, although it has ended in 11 years, but it does not affect its status and existence in the hearts of the United States.

"Survivor" is not qualified enough compared to it.

But the premiere can get such good results, Su Yan imagined that many viewers and media people must be surprised.

After tons and half bottles of beer went down, he eased his mood.

"What about the evaluation, is there an evaluation?"

"Of course!" a curly-haired assistant director pulled out a few pieces of paper.

Su Yan looked at it and was shocked again.

"F***kidding me" His sudden burst of foul language made the three of them laugh.

"I just reacted the same way you did. Jimmy was very understanding.

"Are this Rotten Tomatoes sure it's that Rotten Tomatoes?" asked Su Yan by pointing to a word?

"That's right, that's it. ”

No wonder Su Yan was surprised, the big 91% above is really exaggerated.

Rotten Tomatoes' evaluation of a film is based on the reviews of all verified critics on the site, who determine whether it is good (fresh tomatoes) or bad (Rotten Tomatoes), and staff use overall performance data to determine whether the review is positive ("fresh" is marked by a bright red tomato) or negative ("rotten" is marked by a green smashed tomato).

If there are more than 60% positive reviews, the work will be considered "fresh", and below that number will be rotten.

Quarterly variety shows such as "Survivor" are also within their range of appreciation.

It is the same at home and abroad, the so-called experts are the most terrifying, they all like to go against the audience and show their unique vision.

But 91%, that means that out of ten experts, more than nine like it, that is, I really like it.

"There are also excerpts from some people's evaluations below, you can check them out!"

Obviously, CBS is still quite reliable, and they must want to know the specific situation when they know Su Yan.

"In the beginning, I thought CBS was doing a comedy where 20 ordinary people went to an uninhabited island to play games, go on vacation, and then decide to come out with a winner, but after watching the first episode, I was amazed! It's a microcosm of today's society. ”

"The show is very exciting, there are no urine spots, I gave a big surprise at the beginning, the members thought that the detachment form was directly broken, and when I grabbed resources for two minutes, I was nervous together, and my head would think about changing to myself, what would I take? I think it would probably be those big cocks!"

"The editor has to give good reviews, it's very good, it's not procrastinating, and after one shot after another, it's easy to get a sense of what life is like on the island, just divide the contestants by race, is that really a good idea, I'm skeptical for the time being. ”

"Hungry, cold, no campfire, huddle for warmth, the contestant comes to a real field, and finds that survival is the theme, Billy!

"Clan competition, elimination, rushing under the threat of elimination, all kinds of conspiracies, this is the real version of the TV series, there is no script, like Jimmy said the unknown is the most terrifying, I would love to know how to develop next. ”

"There is only one episode, and the show shows a lot of new ideas, grouping, competitions, tribal meetings, elimination, I don't know what surprises will be next!"

"I'm in the pit, I hope there will be new tricks in the future, I hope it's not just the competition, and the monotonous process is eliminated. ”

Seeing the smile on Su Yan's face, the assistant director was also happy.

"This is just a professional film critic's evaluation, and the audience's has not collected it, but it shouldn't be bad. ”

No wonder he is confident that there is a lot of content in the first issue, but the most important thing is that the battle between people has not yet begun.

At that time, everyone was still very kind, or they didn't know how to play the game, and the charm of each member had not yet begun to radiate.

Ozzy's bravery, Kim's strategizing, Parvati's sass, Old Joe's shrewdness, Pika's arbitrariness, the curse of the blue team, Cadiz's four-upper banishment island, the four-member group's counterattack, and other wonderful content, and even hope to break 10 million ratings.

Friday is also a good time in the United States, "Survivor" not only won the championship, but even defeated not variety shows, but TV series.

On the way back to the camp, the assistant director told the TV station about the plan, and in the next week, they will increase their publicity efforts, as for the program interview, it will be held in early June, and Su Yan doesn't have to come at that time, just let Jimmy bring the contestants that the audience likes to attend.

...

In a small town in California, Billy woke up and found dozens of missed calls on his phone, from his parents, classmates, friends, boss, and even ex-girlfriend.

After calling my dad back, after chatting for a while, I understood.

"Survivor" aired, and he became famous.

He didn't tell anyone about participating in the show, he just had a fun mentality, plus he was an otaku since he was a child, and he had never been abroad, but he didn't expect to just try to submit his resume and be selected.

The program team reimburses the air ticket, and regardless of whether they win or lose, when they finally participate in the reunion, they will be paid 10,000 US dollars, which is much higher than the current income.

So I took a month's vacation and flew directly to the South Pacific, and as a result, it took longer to travel than to survive.

The second one was eliminated, and he was embarrassed to tell others what he was going to do, only to say that he was traveling!

Strictly speaking, Billy did well on the first day, and his honest appearance made people not hate him, but he was just too lazy, which became the target of the tribesmen.

Family and friends don't care how well he performs on the show, but they are just curious about where he has come and whether he has received a million dollars.

Billy told the truth that he had signed a non-disclosure agreement and could not reveal anything about the contents, otherwise he would face high liquidated damages that he might not be able to pay off in his life, just let them read it.

Actually, there is another reason, and it is also a bit embarrassing, after all, he will be eliminated next week, which is nothing, love at first sight is the biggest problem.

On the way back, he did ask the staff for Candace's contact information, and was told that they had just said politely, and didn't have any other ideas, and didn't even know who you were.

Billy is ready to disappear for a while, it's too humiliating.
