Chapter 332 Revenue
The casting of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Zhenghao Studio" did not deliberately promote it, but it also did not deliberately conceal the news.
In addition to the four leading actors, there are many main supporting roles in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and it is impossible to hide such a wide range of casting.
In addition, although the company scale of "Zhenghao Studio" is not large, the overall volume is among the best in the current Dragon Kingdom entertainment circle, especially in terms of profitability, which can be said to be outstanding.
Although there are not many artists under the studio, all of them are leaders in the industry, Zhao Zhenghao needless to say, his every move can go to the real-time hot search list of the scarf, and the other Feng Xiaojing, Yu Yabin, and the "heroic" band are all top names in their respective fields, and their every move touches the hearts of fans.
Outside the "Zhenghao Studio", there are several paparazzi reporters stationed all the year round, these people, in addition to not receiving wages from the studio, should pay every day, and they are more conscientious than the employees of the studio, which can be called a model in the industry.
Some time ago, a succession of powerful flowers and small students in the industry came to the studio, and the paparazzi reporters with a keen sense of smell had already guessed from this unusual move that the "Zhenghao Studio" was about to make a big move.
It's just because, during this time, the hot scenes of the "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" and the "Legend" world tour temporarily blinded their associative ability, and they did not associate this unusual move with Zhao Zhenghao's new movie for the first time.
It has been more than half a year since the release of "Infernal Affairs", and according to past experience, Zhao Zhenghao's new directorial work should start preparations.
It wasn't until Wei Li appeared in the "Zhenghao Studio" for the second time, and then Yi Ping began to have new moves, and the purpose of the "Zhenghao Studio" during this period of time was confirmed.
Yi Ping, as the most successful actress in the Dragon Kingdom, although she is very low-key in ordinary life, she is the focus of media attention in her every move.
is not like Xiang Yazhen and Xie Xin, although they are also powerful among the new generation of actors, and they have achieved good results before, but in terms of popularity and attention, they are far inferior to those so-called small flowers and small students who are glamorous on the surface.
The speculation of the paparazzi immediately attracted great attention from fans, and everyone went to Zhao Zhenghao and "Zhenghao Studio" to leave messages under the scarf to ask the truth of the matter.
Zhao Zhenghao immediately replied positively, "The new film is about to be approved, and it is expected to meet you in the summer file tomorrow, so stay tuned!"
It was confirmed that his fourth directorial work, preparations have already begun, but no further information has been revealed.
With Zhao Zhenghao in charge, Yi Ping, Xiang Yazhen, Xie Xin and others joined "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", there is no topic, but now there is still more than half a year before Zhao Zhenghao's expected release schedule, and too many insiders are exposed too early, which will inevitably have some impact on the follow-up publicity and promotion.
Zhao Zhenghao's filming of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", although the main goal is to aim at international film festivals such as the Oscars and the Cannes International Film Festival, he is not just seeking awards and ignoring the box office.
Zhao Zhenghao's biggest purpose in making movies is to invite fame, and in addition to inviting fame, he also takes into account profits.
His highest pursuit in movies is to be like "The Lord of the Rings 3" in his previous life, which can not only sell high box office, but also receive the highest award in the industry.
By the way, lead the Dragon Kingdom Movie and truly ascend to the highest hall of world cinema.
Zhao Zhenghao's first three directorial works, although they have achieved a good box office around the world, but the limitations of the film are quite obvious, the audience is mainly within the influence of the Dalong Kingdom Circle, in Europe and the United States, fans are mainly Zhao Zhenghao's personal fans, and the attraction to ordinary fans is insufficient.
This "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is Zhao Zhenghao's attempt to break into the mainstream market of the international film industry.
Zhao Zhenghao was reluctant to reveal more about the inside story of the new film, and outsiders had no way to take him, but fortunately, during this period, there was too much news about Zhao Zhenghao, and new information broke out every day, which overwhelmed fans and was addicted, and soon left his director's new work behind.
After the broadcast of "The Voice of the Dragon Country", the ratings of Dongfang TV continued to rise, and by the last episode of the blind audition, that is, the sixth episode of the whole season, the average rating had broken five!
Now it is 2018, the entertainment market has fully entered the era of mobile Internet, in other entertainment programs, the overall ratings can break one, even if it is successful, the average rating of "The Voice of the Dragon Country" can exceed 10,000, and the market share accounts for one-third of the same era, such a strong performance, it can be called a miracle.
The "super idol" of Mango Channel, which was originally compared by fans with "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom", barely broke the second in the ratings of the same period, and the performance was already very good, but all the light was snatched away by the "Voice of the Dragon Kingdom", and the topic discussion heat created the lowest in the history.
The ratings performance of "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" can be proud even more than ten years ago when TV was king.
The performance on the TV station is good, and the performance on the video website is also not bad, after six episodes, the total on-demand volume of the feature film on Penguin Video has exceeded 3 billion, and the average on-demand volume of the feature film per issue is as high as 500 million!
This is real data, not data after other programs have been deceived and bubbled.
If this data is not convincing enough, then another data can completely confirm the strength of "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" - according to the internal news of Penguin Video, after the launch of "The Voice of the Dragon Country", the number of annual members of Penguin Video has increased by 10 million, and the number of paid members in the other half year has also increased by more than 5 million.
Relying on these increased paid membership income alone, Penguin Video has recovered its huge investment in the copyright of the "Voice of the Dragon Country" online broadcast, and there is a huge surplus.
The profit created by the huge traffic created by "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" is the net revenue of Penguin Video.
In the face of this result, the most regrettable thing is to miss Youdou Video and Qiyi Video, which have lost the copyright of the "Voice of the Dragon Country" network broadcast with a mere difference of 5 million.
In the impression of the high-ranking kings and queens, in order to compete for a powerful player, they fought each other on the spot, and the competing singers with outstanding singing skills, gorgeous stage settings, extravagant live soundtrack teams, and ultra-high-quality sound effects jointly created an endless number of topics.
The fire of "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" is not a fire deliberately created by overwhelming propaganda, but a real and genuine fire!
Not only did fans see the four mentors on the other side, but their popularity reached a new peak, and all kinds of star players became popular all over the country overnight.
The songs sung by the contestants in the blind audition, as soon as the sound source was released, appeared on the top singles list of Penguin Music, the exclusive music cooperation platform of "The Voice of the Dragon Country".
Although these songs are all cover versions and cannot be listed due to the inclusion restrictions on the hit singles chart of the Golden Song Chart, this has not affected the popularity of these songs in the slightest.
The original versions of these songs were turned out one by one, and compared with the cover versions of the star contestants of "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom", fans found that the cover versions of some songs are even better than the original version!
However, this situation is only a case, and there is still a certain gap between the cover version of most songs and the original version, at most it can only be said that the radish greens have their own love.
Mainly because of the singing contestants who participated in the blind audition of "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom", most of the songs selected were the works of the four mentors - Zhao Zhenghao, An Shuyi, Liu Runze, and Ju Qinghao.
Zhao Zhenghao, An Shuyi, Liu Runze and Ju Qinghao, as the king and queen with the highest status and popularity in the music circle of the Dragon Kingdom, have undoubtedly reached the realm of singing skills.
Among the star contestants of "The Voice of the Dragon Country", although there are many talented voices and talents, there is still an obvious gap in terms of singing skills and life experience compared with the four major mentors, and it is not easy to win with a precious voice alone.
Because, the voices of Zhao Zhenghao, An Shuyi, Liu Runze, and Ju Qinghao are also recognized as diamond voices in the circle, and their talents are not inferior to anyone.
Of course, An Shuyi, Liu Runze and Ju Qinghao are really God's favorers, and Zhao Zhenghao relies on the black technology transformation of the "super idol system".
"Zhenghao Studio" originally did not calculate the sales of the sound source of the contestant's cover songs into the profit, thinking that it was just three melons and two dates, which was not worth mentioning compared with the huge income from attracting merchants to buy various copyrights before.
However, when Penguin Music divided the first issue of this aspect into the account of "Zhenghao Studio", it created a big surprise.
In the cooperation agreement signed between "Zhenghao Studio" and Penguin Music, the sales share of music sources is calculated on a monthly basis.
Recently, "Zhenghao Studio" has no new albums on the market, and the album that was released closest to the past is the original album of the "Heroic" band three months ago.
At the end of 2017, in the New Year's plan of "Zhenghao Studio", there were three album plans, namely the original album of the "Heroic Spirit" band, Feng Xiaojing's solo album, and Yu Yabin's personal original album.
Due to the focus of Yu Yabin's life some time ago, focusing on taking care of the points, the recording of his original album has been delayed again and again, and the release time is far away;
Only the new album of the band "Heroic Spirit" was completed as scheduled and successfully launched.
This album, including songs, is all from the hands of the four existing members of the "Heroic Spirit" band - Wang Rui, Liu Yang, Yin Zeqing and Tian Xiaolei, and the band's supernumerary member Zhao Zhenghao did not interfere.
After Wang Rui joined the "Zhenghao Studio", his work and life have undergone earth-shaking changes, from a penniless down-and-out musician to a hot rock star, although he is very satisfied with the favorable conditions offered by the "Zhenghao Studio", and has no idea of betrayal, but he inevitably has some ideas in his heart, and he does not want to live in the shadow of Zhao Zhenghao all the time.
This album is an attempt for them to be independent.
As a result, it was not as good as it could be.
Zhao Zhenghao's role in the "Heroic" band is not only to drain traffic and set up a benchmark, but more importantly, to provide classic songs for the band.
Wang Rui and a few people do not have too high musical talent, otherwise they would not have been so miserable that they were recruited by "Zhenghao Studio", in recent years, under the leadership of Zhao Zhenghao, some achievements have been made, but the foundation is the two albums created by Zhao Zhenghao.
The works created by Wang Rui and several people for several years are not the same as those classics taken out by Zhao Zhenghao.
The market performance after the album was released proved this result, except for the sales of the title song, which exceeded 100 million, the sales of the rest of the songs were only tens of millions, and some did not even exceed 10 million;
This reality, like a basin of cold water, poured on the heads of Wang Rui and the others, made their heads a little hot, sober up, recognize the gap between themselves and Zhao Zhenghao, and straighten their minds a lot.
The pure original album of the "Heroic Spirit" band, like a splash made by a stone, quickly disappeared in the entire sea of music, and three months later, the name has long disappeared from the various charts of the golden song chart.
Although the sales peak has long passed, the follow-up sales have not stopped, but in comparison with the continuous sales of the previous two albums that have been on the market for several years, they have fallen behind.
Zhao Zhenghao's three solo albums, plus the two albums of the "Heroic Spirit" band hosted by him, still have an income of more than 10 million per month on the exclusive cooperative distribution platform - Penguin Music.
In the third month of its release, the continuous sales revenue of the "Heroic Spirit" band's pure original album has plummeted to only a few hundred thousand, and it is still decreasing.
Leave that to the moment.
In the past month, "Zhenghao Studio" has added another item to its music copyright income, that is, the sales of cover songs of "The Voice of the Dragon" contestants.
Although this sales are sold, after being taken by Penguin Music, it will be divided with the songwriter, original singer, and copyright owner of the song, including a share of the cover contestants, and only about 20% will fall into the hands of "Zhenghao Studio".
However, the total sales are not high!
In the past month, "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" has played a total of four episodes, and there are eight contestants in each issue, that is to say, a total of 32 cover versions of songs have been sold online, and the average sales of each song are more than 10 million, with a total sales of 300 million!
"Zhenghao Studio" received 20% of them, and there were also 60 million incomes.
In the follow-up situation, if calculated according to this standard, "Zhenghao Studio" will be able to earn at least 200 million in this regard alone!
In this way, the total profit created by "The Voice of the Dragon Kingdom" has reached 1.2 billion!
Last year, half of the annual profits of the top ten listed companies in the entertainment industry in Longguo announced their annual profits, and there was no program called "The Voice of Longguo", which created a high net profit for "Zhenghao Studio".
