Chapter 1182 - Repeatedly in the Spotlight
The news that the ratings of the large-scale variety show produced by Phoenix TV broke 10% after it was broadcast, and once it was spread, it attracted the attention of countless people.
The TV stations were also shocked and unwilling.
It's Phoenix TV again, and it's that young guy again.
Yang Ming also received this news in his busy schedule, sighed a few times, and did not take it to heart.
The decline in the ratings of the TV station has long been doomed, it is now 2005, not to mention the 10% ratings, in 5 years, it is estimated that as long as the ratings of the program can exceed 5%, it is already considered a blessing to the sky, Amitabha.
It will be even lower.
This is the general trend and cannot be changed.
Now that "The Same Song" can break 10% of the ratings, Yang Ming is also quite emotional, if this show is taken out five years in advance, it is estimated that it is still possible to break 20% of the ratings.
It's just that now it seems that it is obviously impossible.
Yang Ming thought about this in his heart, and then focused on the crew and seized the time to film.
However, after the broadcast of "The Same Song", the newspapers of major news media came out the next day, and they all spoke highly of this variety show produced by Phoenix TV.
Suddenly, this show was known to everyone in China, and it was in the limelight for a while.
"Inheriting Chinese Culture with Singing"
The mouthpiece of the government "People's Daily" used such an eye-catching title on an important page to solemnly report on the program "The Same Song", especially Yang Ming's "Huaxia Baby" made a very high evaluation.
"The Chinese language is a part of Chinese culture, and the same is true of Chinese songs, beautiful melodies can make Chinese language spread to the world in a more convenient form;
"The beauty of the lyrics of this "Huaxia Baby" is described in eight words, that is, "you can understand it when you listen to it, and the aftertaste is endless", it is not easy to do these eight words, most of the elegant art songs have the value of aftertaste, but it is not easy to "understand it when you listen to it"; ”
And "Huaxia Baby" perfectly embodies the charm of these eight words, especially Yang Ming's perfect expression of Chinese culture through singers, which is even more commendable. ”
"People's Daily" is a government media, and the perspective of the station is different, and the newspaper's evaluation of "Huaxia Baby" is basically focused on the dissemination of Chinese culture.
With the efforts of the government and the Ministry of Culture, in addition to "People's Daily", other major official media have also reported on Yang Ming's "Huaxia Baby", and spoke highly of the impact and significance of this song.
"The Yangtze River, the Yellow River, shallots mixed with tofu, and the cloth-soled shoes of the handy, etc., are the most common but indispensable parts of Chinese culture, and Yang Ming uses a song to connect these perfectly and tell the unique cultural heritage of China. -- Nanhai Daily.
"The Yangtze River and the Yellow River are the mother river of the Chinese nation, the lyrics use simple words to tell the love of the mother, and also love the Chinese nation; shallots mixed with tofu - a clear and white, just like the traditional Chinese family motto, which is a symbol of noble personality; the cloth shoes of the hand are originally made by the mother with thousands of needles and threads, **** night and night, the so-called "mother's hand line, wandering shirt", a small pair of shoes is a symbol of maternal love, is the source of children's strength, will always inspire children to go all over the world. -- "Chinese Daily".
"Most of the popular songs that are popular in the current pop music scene are as light and tasteless as boiled water, blindly pursuing loose culture, colloquialism, and vernacular, and rarely taking into account the depth and fullness contained in the lyrics. A masterpiece like "Huaxia Baby", which is both popular and flavorful, is particularly valuable. -- Dong-A Ilbo
Under the instructions of their superiors, each official media used a large page to report on Phoenix TV's "The Same Song" variety show, and highly praised Yang Ming's original "Huaxia Baby", which made a certain contribution to the promotion of Chinese culture.
In addition, the theme of the show "The Same Song" is also well known in various media.
The same song, the same people, the same skin color.
Wu Yuanzhi naturally would not give up such a good opportunity, and took advantage of this God-given opportunity to immediately arrange for people to increase the publicity of "The Same Song", and strive to lay the foundation for the next issue of "The Same Song".
This variety show is one issue in January, and the next one will be held in the city of Guangzhou, and according to the plan, the third phase will be in the magic capital, and the next city arrangements have not yet been decided.
But when the news commentary of the major official media was released today, the demands of countless cities for cooperation flew to Phoenix TV like snowflakes.
At the same time, the big-name singers in the music industry who didn't care about the invitation of Phoenix TV have also changed their minds and arranged for their agents to contact Phoenix TV quickly, and they promised to attend the performance of the "Same Song" party, even if they don't have money.
Break 10% of the ratings!
If any variety show has such ratings, these big-name singers are probably willing to participate even if they pay for it.
And the performance of "The Same Song" is not tiring, at best, the whole party sings two songs at most, and some singers are basically one song, which is nothing at all!
In particular, Phoenix TV announced that there will be 12 episodes of "The Same Song" every year, and the six episodes of the party will be held in China, and the other half of the six episodes of the party will be held in cities with a large number of Chinese abroad.
has done all the shows abroad, which undoubtedly increases the temptation of those big-name singers in the music scene.
How could they not be tempted in such a situation?
Other TV stations saw that Phoenix TV was so popular, and they were envious and jealous in their hearts, and this nascent TV station had another ace variety show.
What's more, this variety show has also been highly valued by the government and given a certain amount of support, how can it not make other TV stations envious, jealous and hateful, and look at Phoenix TV with red eyes.
At the same time, in the circle of TV stations, there is a blockbuster news.
It seems that Phoenix TV is trying to acquire Fuzhou TV, once the acquisition is successful, it will make up for the last short board of Phoenix TV, then Phoenix TV is bound to consolidate its position even more, which makes other TV stations even more uncomfortable.
Seeing the great success of the first episode of "The Same Song", Wu Yuanzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief, in order to prepare for this show, it took almost half a year in the station.
Now she can finally put her mind at ease and arrange for someone to prepare another program planning idea given by Yang Ming, "Happy Comedian".
Then within two days, another blockbuster news was exposed in the entertainment industry.
You Gang, the director of the film "Bitter Water", who won the three awards of Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay at this year's Golden Dragon Awards, held a grand press conference to announce his resignation from Shengli Pictures and the establishment of his own star studio.
The first thing the star studio did was to cooperate with Oriental DreamWorks to arrange for the Golden Dragon Award-winning film "Bitter Water" to be released again in the Art Garden Cinema Line, a subsidiary of Donghai Cinemas.
At the press conference, director You Gang did not hide his star studio, and Oriental DreamWorks invested 20 million yuan to occupy 40% of the shares!
When the news broke, it immediately shocked the entire entertainment industry and the media industry.
Countless people looked at the impact of this news with a surprised look, and at the same time looked at the old guys of the Golden Dragon Award Organizing Committee with extremely strange eyes.
The two films shot by Yang Ming last year were deliberately targeted at this year's Golden Dragon Awards, and they passed by the two awards of Best Director and Best Picture.
If it weren't for Yang Ming personally appearing to fans to admit that he was inferior to "Bitter Water", under the provocation of people with intentions, things would have become even bigger, and it would have been impossible to clean up.
In this year's Golden Dragon Awards, Yang Ming is undoubtedly a disappointed person, this result is recognized, and countless fans are also upset with Yang Ming.
The box office results achieved by the two films "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" and "Ghost Love" are enough to throw off "Bitter Water" and other films for more than a decade, although these two films are commercial films, and the organizing committee of the Golden Dragon Awards does not treat Yang Ming like this, right?
Even if you can't win the best picture, you should win the award for best director!
It's a pity that Yang Ming didn't get any of the two awards at the Golden Dragon Awards.
After the results of the Golden Dragon Awards came out not long ago, not only countless fans and fans were aggrieved for Yang Ming, but also many media were also very similar to Yang Ming, fighting for Yang Ming, and criticizing the selection rules and review vision of the Golden Dragon Awards on the news.
But now, when the results of the Golden Dragon Award were announced, it was suddenly revealed that You Gang, the director of "Bitter Water", joined Oriental DreamWorks as a star studio.
And the niche art film "Bitter Water" was screened in Yang Ming's Industrial Art Garden Theater.
After such news came out, countless people in the entertainment industry immediately dropped their jaws and were taken aback, and at the same time, they felt that everything that the old men of the Golden Dragon Award Organizing Committee had done before was all in vain and useless.
"Bitter Water" is an independent production, and You has just raised funds to shoot it on his own, so the copyright of this film is in his hands.
Now this film has been taken offline in mainstream commercial theaters due to box office fiasco, so You Gang took this film to Yiyuan Theaters for screening, and there is nothing.
But the newly released Golden Dragon Award for Best Director announced that his star studio will be affiliated with Oriental DreamWorks, which is a naked slap in the face to the old men of the Golden Dragon Award Organizing Committee.
They are extremely unwelcome to see this local film genius because the films made by Yang Ming have always been commercial films, and they won the best film last year, completely forced by the situation, and they don't want to be infamy, it is a bit too much to suppress Yang Ming, after all, "Bitter Water" is indeed impeccable in terms of artistic standards, and winning awards also depends on its own strength.
However, it is true that these old guys don't like Yang Ming.
It's just that no one thought that everything they had worked so hard to do now seemed meaningless.
Yang Ming once again became the biggest winner of this year's Golden Dragon Award, but the way he became the biggest winner undoubtedly slapped the faces of the old guys in the organizing committee.
Aren't you going to give me the award? Then I'll include all the award-winning films and directors under my umbrella, anyway, the person who will benefit in the end is still him Yang Ming, or Oriental DreamWorks.
After the news came out, the entire entertainment industry watched all this happily, and at the same time, Victory Pictures, another company in this matter, was also involved in the whirlpool of the incident and became the focus of countless media attention.
You Gang is the meritorious director of Victory Pictures, such a talent, he publicly announced his resignation from Victory Pictures, it can be seen that many unknown things must have happened.
It's a pity that at the press conference, many media reporters repeatedly asked Director You Gang, but they didn't ask any useful information.
Things are getting more and more intense, and many entertainment reporters are crowding at the door of Oriental DreamWorks, trying to find out any useful news.
There were even some reporters who heard that Yang Ming was filming in Tiannan Province, and immediately rushed over and blocked Yang Ming at the hotel where the crew was staying, wanting to get some useful news from him.
"Yang Ming, You just joined Oriental DreamWorks, did you start planning before the Golden Dragon Award selection?"
"Last year you were the biggest winner of the Golden Dragon Award, and this year is still the same, do you have anything to say about that?"
"You were discriminated against at the Golden Dragon Awards, and now you have won the best film and the best director, is this a counterattack to the Golden Dragon Award organizing committee?"
Today, Yang Ming just finished filming the last exterior scene in Tiannan Province, and when he returned to the door of the hotel, he was blocked by many entertainment reporters, asking all kinds of sharp questions.
He was a little confused, so listening to the questions of these reporters, how did he get it and the Golden Dragon Award Organizing Committee had a deep hatred.
What kind of thing is this?
He glanced at Huang Tingzhi beside him with questioning eyes, and Huang Tingzhi immediately whispered to Yang Ming what had happened in the outside world in the past two days.
After listening to Huang Tingzhi's brief words, Yang Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Brother, is this a lying gun?
You just joined Oriental DreamWorks, and "Bitter Water" was launched in the Art Garden Theater, which was originally a coincidence, how to get it was like his careful calculation, he didn't want things to spread more and more.
Yang Ming did not immediately answer the reporter's question, but gave the rest of the crew a look and asked them to leave first.
Then he sorted out his thoughts, faced many microphones, and then said slowly: "Do you know about the art theater?"
Hearing this answer, the reporters were stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "Of course I heard about it? Does this have anything to do with this incident?"
Yang Ming nodded and continued: "Oriental DreamWorks, as a film company, has the obligation to contribute to the local film industry, the film market for art films is getting smaller and smaller, and it is becoming less and less popular with mainstream audiences, but this does not mean that there is no market for art films. ”
"After the renovation of the Art Garden Cinema Line, it is bound to arrange some excellent art films to be released, and at this time, "Bitter Water", which won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Film, has entered the sight of the Art Garden Cinema Line!"
"It's just a normal business cooperation, please don't think about it. ”
After saying these words, Yang Ming left quickly under the maintenance of the hotel security personnel, whether the reporter believed it or not, anyway, he had also explained, just turn around and call Tao Lao and say it.
