Chapter 508: The audience was a little panicked
……
The second half of Zhou Bai's long comment:
The third dimension.
As a commercial web drama, Infinite Paradise implements the YY aesthetics proposed by Cao Yifang at the Singularity IP Festival last year, and he wants the TV series to inherit the biggest characteristic of online literature - cool points.
Even if it's someone who doesn't look at the Internet, I know he's succeeded.
I think this latitude is the most important criterion.
I give full marks.
Online cool articles → online cool dramas, it seems to be a word difference, but in fact, there is a strict film and television censorship system across the stars and the sea, the capital chaos in the entertainment industry, the cake of vested interests, and the huge gap in the film industry.
Those who study philosophy habitually inquire into the nature of the world.
After writing film reviews and watching so many film and television dramas over the years, I have certainly explored how these works are conceived and formed.
So I know the difficulty better than the average viewer, and of course, I just know a little more.
So I laughed while watching, laughed, and thought about it, and my heart was sad.
How hard is that......
How long does it take to read the original, how deep does it work, and how long does it take to complete the script in such a short time?
can't afford to use mature artists, so he pulled an inexperienced starring team and went directly to shoot the most difficult green screen scene, and finally presented such a good effect...... How much performance friction has you experienced?
More than 50% of the special effects production, more than 10 special effects studios across the country cooperate in the division of labor......
In front of this drama, every participant is inexperienced, and must be stumbling across the river by feeling the stones.
I knew it had to be hard, but I couldn't understand how hard it was, and it was beyond my comprehension.
Many people hate Cao Fangfang's character, he is sharp, ambitious, and willing to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, which does not conform to the aesthetic of the meanness of our oriental culture.
yes, I don't like that either.
The male star we like should be the top ten young people who are humble and gentle, have high emotional intelligence, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trustworthiness, and are gentle and frugal;
In fact, we just spit on falsehood and love falsehood at the same time.
But in reality, such people are too smart to risk the world's condemnation.
Only the embattled Cao side will choose to fight a bloody way under pressure.
I believe that with the development of our entertainment industry, sooner or later there will be similar dramas, or even better dramas, perhaps in 2025. It may be 2030, but it certainly isn't now.
It takes too many coincidences for this drama to be born now, as well as the fighting companionship of the participants.
Such a drama may still have such and such drawbacks, but I am still willing to give a full score.
Because it made me see the power of doers, the courage of careerists, and the obsession of idealists in a flashy industry, and let me see the extension of the outcome of that debate.
The more difficult it is to understand, the more shocking it becomes.

……
There were many replies to this comment.
And Zhou Bai's comment is just a drop in the ocean...... There are too many similar reviews.
is not only the drama review of the gluttonous network, but the broadcast of the drama Infinite Paradise has been discussed on the whole network.
Such arguments can be seen everywhere.
[Crazy Amway Infinity Paradise!!I went to see that we are half-brothers and sisters!]
[Why is this being said everywhere?]
[Uh, the real game world.] 】
[What's that?]
[I can't tell, it's super funny anyway!]
[Every episode is cinematic]
[Who is the heroine?]
[There are four leading actors, Cao Yifang, Shen Yu'an, Qiu Shanqi, and Xue Mengjiao. 】
[There are too few stars to be too lazy to watch ......]
[Paid TV series, the first time I encountered it]
[Chinese TV dramas still dare to charge, hehe]
[While shouting about this charge, while shouting about this Chinese TV series, movies, music garbage (funny face)]
[It's not enough for celebrities to make so much money?]
【Baidu Cloud to understand】
[I can't find resources, Penguin now protects the video copyright too well, in the end, it is a monopoly capitalist, what a cowhide]
[If you don't have five dollars, don't watch the show...... Let's get a job]
[It's annoying, I'm already a member, and I have to charge, and I charge for the second time]
[Paying is a good drama to watch, there is not enough profit, who can spend so much money on special effects?]
[Then I'll just watch American dramas]
[To tell the truth, personal opinion, Infinity Paradise is better than most American dramas]
[Now you charge money for everything, it's what you're used to, it's not that I can't afford a few dollars, I don't want to get used to the stinky problems of these capitalists, I don't need money for tens of millions of blockbusters made abroad, why should I watch millions of domestic TV series?]
[This big brother, are you sure that foreign blockbusters have only been shot for tens of millions?]
[This big brother, Infinity Paradise has a cost of 20 million per episode, so let's understand?]
The main argument of this part of the price-sensitive group is still tangled in whether to pay or not.
For many viewers who love this drama, they are always very worried when they see similar remarks, so they pay more attention to the data released by relevant media.
They found that although the drama was hotly discussed, the number of subscriptions was not high.
One day after the premiere, Singularity Video announced the on-demand data of Infinity Park.
Online drama traffic fraud has always been a difficult problem to solve, but since Infinity Paradise does not rely on clicks to earn revenue, there is naturally no problem of people deliberately spending money to buy traffic, so compared with other online dramas that often premiere and exceed hundreds of millions of hits, the number of hits in the first episode of Infinity Paradise is pitiful.
There are only more than 20 million.
The total number of paying subscribers for each subsequent episode was 6.25 million.
Those who have a heart use this data to calculate the income of the entire show, and they calculate it according to the five dimes per episode, so far, the overall income is only about 31 million.
After a lot of advertising, everyone knows that the whole show has invested 200 million, and a small number of Cao Fangfang's fans know that he has made 40 million alone.
Fans are often better than celebrities themselves, according to Cao Fang's several dramas and variety show salaries, no matter how you count your fingers, 40 million should be close to the limit of his personal assets.
Maybe I borrowed some money!
So, although Cao Fang has not cried poor, the audiences who have experienced several excellent Chinese comic movies, whether they are drama fans or Cao fans, have begun to forward the data on their own and run to tell each other.
[Father-in-law Cao is going bankrupt!]
[Cao Fangfang invested 40 million by himself, and now the income of the whole drama is only 30 million, the loss is too big]
[An investment of 200 million, now the whole drama only has 30 million revenue, this drama has no advertising revenue, it all depends on the number of subscriptions, it is completely an experimental work, the risk is already very large, the conditional is to subscribe to it, the quality of this drama is very good, the special effects are worthy of foreign blockbusters, and it is definitely worth the money]
[Oh my God, why is the number of subscriptions so low?Singularity Video has 70 million members alone, how can it only be more than 6 million subscriptions?!]
[It is said that most anti-Japanese dramas can earn ten times the income......]
[I haven't watched it yet, but as long as the TV series is sold, it won't lose too badly, right?
[This is an online drama, not on the TV station, and unlike other online dramas, the number of clicks can be faked, and the subscription is real. 】
[It's only been two days, you're in a hurry, ......]
