Chapter 405: Film and Television Theme Park
June 1st.
In anticipation of the teenagers, Transformers was finally officially broadcast on the children's channel.
Like countless children, Xiao Ming and Xiao Nan met at Xiao Ming's house after finishing their homework.
Just before six o'clock in the evening, two teenage boys were huddled side by side on the couch, staring at the television with clear eyes.
"It's going to air soon!" Xiao Ming said excitedly.
Xiao Nan smiled: "Mmmm, it would be nice if the advertisement was shorter."
A moment later, just after six o'clock, the word Transformers appeared on the screen.
"Millions of years ago, there was intelligent life on a planet called Cybertron. But they are not the life forms we are familiar with, and the planet is inhabited by intelligent mechanical bodies with thoughts and feelings, Transformers. β
"Transformers are divided into Autobots and Decepticons."
"The ruthless Decepticons, whose only goal is to rule the universe once and for all, plan to wipe out the peace-loving Autobots. A battle between good and evil engulfed the entire Cybertron. β
"Cybertron is devastated by the civil war between the Autobots and the Decepticons. The Autobots decided to leave Cybertron on the Ark in search of new energy, and after the Decepticons heard the news, Megatron sent Shockwave to stay in Cybertron, while the rest of the Decepticons pursued them on the Retribution. During the pursuit, the Decepticons boarded the Ark, but the ship unfortunately had an accident and crashed into Earth, leaving both factions unconscious. Four million years later, a volcanic eruption brought the ship back into operation......."
And that's where the story begins.
In the first episode, the Decepticons and Autobots wake up one after another, come up and start fighting, and then gradually involve humans.
After that, the battle was fought for good.
......
An episode of Transformers is about twenty-two minutes long, and the two episodes are broadcast in a row, and counting the commercials, it is less than an hour in total.
However, in just a few dozen minutes, the two children were fascinated by it.
Spaceships, shape-shifting robots, advanced weapons, and more, these high-tech sci-fi gadgets open the door to a new world for these kids.
"Wow, that's cool!" Xiao Ming jumped up directly from the sofa, "Xiao Nan, have you seen it, Optimus Prime is really powerful!" β
"Uh-huh, I really like the way they transform, it's really cool to go from a small car to a robot that big."
"yes, I think the red spider is also very handsome, and it can also be turned into an airplane and fly in the sky."
"yes, yes..."
Suddenly, a middle-aged man walked over, "Son, give me the remote control, Dad wants to watch the news broadcast!" β
Xiao Ming was a little reluctant, but he thought that the Transformers had finished broadcasting today, so he handed the remote control to his father.
When sending Xiao Nan out, the two agreed to watch Transformers together tomorrow.
.......
Kyoto, CCTV Children's TV.
"Are the Transformers ratings out?"
"Director, come out..."
"Tell me how many!"
"1.2% in the first episode, 1.4% in the second episode, and an average of 1.3%."
β1.3%οΌ It's a good start, but it should stay at around 1.5% when it stabilizes. β
"Director, just 1.5%? Last year, the most popular cartoons on our children's satellite TV averaged 1.8%. Transformers is Hua Xian's work, I heard that it is still Han Banxian's creation, why is there only such a rating? β
Who can tell? After all, this is a cartoon, not an animated movie, and Huaxian is invincible in movies, which does not mean that he is invincible in this regard. β
"Oh, yes, Han Banxian is not omnipotent."
Day 2.....
"Director, director, the ratings of Transformers have really risen, and the average rating today is 1.5%!"
"So fast? It went up so much the next day? β
"It's pretty fast, and some of the audience's feedback is good, and a lot of kids like those cars."
"Really? Then stay tuned and let me know if something happens. β
However, the third day, the fourth day, the fifth day .... Every day, the ratings of Transformers continue to grow.
By the time the tenth episode was broadcast, its average ratings had already broken two.
"Director.. Grunt... The average rating of Transformers has broken two. β
"Are you sure it's 2%, not 1.2%?"
"Uh... It's definitely still 2%, and it's more than 1.2% on the first day of broadcasting. Director, haha, this year's national animation ratings champion is none other than our Children's Satellite TV! Han Banxian is really our lucky star. β
"yes." The director also nodded with emotion, now the ratings of cartoons on satellite TV in some places are higher than their CCTV, and it is not a matter of one or two years, in recent years, almost every year. Now, at last, you can turn over as a serf and sing!
After a period of time, the average ratings of Transformers once rushed to 2.5%, far ahead of other domestic cartoons, which is beyond people's reach.
Some people sighed that CCTV is a phenomenal cartoon!
The so-called phenomenal level is not only the touching ratings, but also its content that affects countless people.
If you log in to Weibo now, you can find that on the Weibo hot search list, Transformers has occupied a place!
[Transformers, CCTV's phenomenal cartoon is coming, and the new robot transformation idea has swept the country! ] γ
"Transformers are amazing, not worse than Riman."
"It's good, and it's not nonsensical."
"The key is that the robot inside is set to be too dick.,Special intelligent machine life.,And it will be deformed.,This brain hole is a bit powerful.γ
"Made with a domestic conscience."
"All I can say is that some of the high-tech stuff in it is too rebellious, and I've never seen this setting before."
"Hehe, I haven't watched cartoons, after all, I'm thirty years old, and I really can't watch cartoons. But my son likes it very much, and clamoring for me to buy a car toy that will deform. β
"Haha, sympathy, my son likes to watch it too."
"It's worthy of a cartoon produced by Huaxian, this kind of sci-fi force, I don't know how many streets it has thrown off other cartoons."
It is true that the two major features of machine intelligent life and deformation have directly blinded the eyes of countless audiences. Moreover, the two distinct camps make the audience's sense of substitution reach the peak, and it is clear who the righteous Autobots and the evil Decepticons want to support.
Therefore, in just half a month, Transformers has set off a wave of "transformation" craze across the country, and each robot with a distinct personality has also been loved by people.
In addition, before the cartoon is over, some toy manufacturers with a keen sense of smell have called Huaxian, hoping to win the toy production rights of Transformers.
If these robot toys are made, they will definitely be popular all over the country.....
......
At this moment, Hua Xian, inside the office.
Han Qiu was holding his mobile phone and listening to Chen Dong's report: "Director Han, a toy manufacturer has already called our Huaxian Animation, what do you think about the development of this toy?" β
"Let's choose a toy manufacturer with good quality and let them develop the toys."
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
Hanging up the phone, Han Qiu looked at Lin Xiaoming on the sofa, with a hint of apology on his face, "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry to make you smile." β
"It's fine, it's just a phone call." Lin Xiaoming waved his hand casually, he just heard a few words, and he knew that Huaxian was going to make a lot of money this time, "Director Han, you Huaxian are still amazing, the first anime achieved such high ratings in the country, and the toy development rights were sold before the broadcast was finished." β
Han Qiu smiled modestly: "Hehe, it's just some peripherals, it's not worth a few dollars." β
"Tsk, isn't that worth much?" Lin Xiaoming asked with a smile, but the thought in his heart changed, thinking that Hua Xian had just spent a huge amount of money to buy FS, and he realized in his heart, "Also, in Huaxia now, there is no production company as rich as you Hua Xian." β
Han Qiu smiled and said nothing, Hua Xian is indeed rich now, not to mention how many billions of dollars have been made from so many movies before, just the two movies of Big Ship and Wolf Warrior in recent years have made Hua Xian make a lot of money.
In addition to costs, the big ship made a total net profit of more than 400 million US dollars, and the wolf warrior made a net profit of 1.6 billion RMB.
Any one of these two can buy FS with any money they make.
Han Qiu waved his hand, "Don't mention this, let's continue to get down to business, Mr. Lin, I don't know what you think of the film and television base I mentioned just now?" β
Lin Xiaoming hesitated for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Why did you suddenly think of getting such a thing out?" It takes a lot of money to do this, right? β
"Because Huaxian's faΓ§ade is too small now, I want to make it bigger." Han Qiu said with a smile, over the years, Huaxian's area has gone from the first floor to the gradual purchase of the entire building, and then to the present time to buy several office buildings in the magic capital, which is no longer the same.
"Is it because you want to expand the area? Then you don't need to build a film and television base, right? β
"It's just a little bit." Han Qiu raised two fingers, "This second, Mr. Lin, you also know, we Huaxian bought FS, but they are still in the UK, we have to move it over, we must get a base out, and we will build a studio and so on." These are not what our current Hua Xian can tolerate. β
Han Qiu had been to the headquarters of Industrial Light and Magic, and that place was a beautiful place, and the working environment was not too good. And there are several studios in other people's houses, which are specially used for modeling.
Lin Xiaoming shrugged: "Okay, even if what you say is reasonable, but this is also your Huaxian business, we don't have FS shares in Huanyu." β
"Don't worry, there's a third one." Han Qiu showed an unfathomable smile, "Mr. Lin, I won't build a film and television base just for FS, I am going to build it into a film and television city, a film and television theme park, just like the animation theme park in Disney!" In the end, I want to make it a film and television tourist resort, and even a holy place for Chinese films! β
Looking at Han Qiu's confident appearance, Lin Xiaoming's ears almost didn't fall off.
You heard that right...
Movie and TV theme parks?
Tourist city?
The holy land of Chinese movies?
Swallowing his saliva, Lin Xiaoming suddenly felt that an opportunity for his universe had come........
