Chapter 861: Scene 861 A real powerhouse

Looking at the TV screen, James Murdoch sighed again and again: "I always thought that the TV series Chinese would never be able to leave their small circle, but I didn't expect Li Xiaole to make this series reach this height...... Peter~~ Did you notice ...... Even those background actors behind the camera do not have the small mistakes of full skin, bright clothes and realism in the past, which makes people completely unable to enter the play, but they are involved in the three religions and nine streams, and the dignity and humility are all reflected, from head to toe, they are all meticulous, and that's it, the best thing is the feeling of oily sweat on the bottom citizens...... Although the audience will not analyze these things rationally, their senses will directly tell them whether the story is real or not......"

James Murdoch said this, and couldn't help but point to the close-up of the Qiu Jiji fighting with the officers and soldiers on the camera and said: "Peter, pay attention, many of his first-person 3D shots are close-ups, and you can see a lot of subtleties in a close-up, the rust on the scabbard of the Qiu Jiji, as well as the blood stains on his sword blade and the enemy's hairy firing can be clearly seen...... Why does the audience feel that this ridiculous story is real? It's because of the feeling that these little details are stacked up......

And this sense of realism is meticulous in the whole play, realistic everywhere, as long as it is a man, he must have a beard, his armor must have wounds, the leather must be worn, the sword must be notched, the face must be sweaty, the smoky city must be burned, the streets full of, the unkempt people, the wolf-like soldiers, the eyebrows drawn from the ashes of the plants and trees, and the women covered with lead powder, there is no cruel reality, how can there be the thrill of competition......"

Petrov listened to James Murdoch's explanation, and the more he looked at those subtleties, the more he was amazed, although these things are difficult for ordinary people to find at a glance, but they will make every person in the industry admire the five-body throw, and finally couldn't help but sigh: "This Li Xiaole...... It's really ...... It's amazing......"

Two hours passed, whether it was the gym members waiting to use ibox in the gym, or those who watched "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" on the sofa in their apartments, they still felt unsatisfied, and many people reacted and quickly switched to CBS to watch "CSI" only to find that it was also the subtitles at the end of the play, and they couldn't help but be surprised: "How did you do it~ Is it already 10 o'clock?" ”

In the gym, those who were not interested in ibox began to want to line up to try the first-person "Condor Fighting", and wanted to experience how powerful the Taoist priest named Qiu Chuji on TV just now...... Just now they were wearing glasses, but they were all frightened by the long sword of the Taoist priest, and now everyone wants to adjust the game to the lowest difficulty to ravage this Chinese Taoist priest!!

In the conference hall of TVB, everyone looked at the ibox on the far right, the Nielsen ratings survey company's ratings curve, the ratings curve rose straight from the low point of 2 million, and finally when that node jumped out, it just broke through the 8.5 million viewership mark~!! Everyone fell into a strange and brief silence because of the shock, and everyone couldn't believe the fact.

Everyone is already speechless, can it be that the first two episodes are broadcast to exceed their ultimate goal of 8 million people? Could it be that this all-Chinese drama has been a success in the United States?

"The second episode had a minimum rating of 4.78 million and a high of 8.50, with an average rating of 6.89 million and an average of $20.7 million per 30 seconds for bidding ads." Zeng Zhiwei used a trembling voice to report the latest bidding figures on the computer, and everyone took a deep breath when they listened.

But Li Xiaole frowned, his expression seemed to be not very satisfied with this number, everyone looked at him and was stunned, but now no one questioned how arrogant his demeanor was~~! The fire in everyone's heart was ignited, I don't know who stood up and applauded, and then whether it was Black Pearl Company or TVB, everyone at the scene stood up and applauded hard! Many people even applauded Li Xiaole loudly: "It's a stick!" Director Lee! "This drama is simply incredible~!"

The entire TVB building seems to have fallen into excitement and ecstasy, you must know that before this, TVB has been in decline for ten consecutive years since the Asian financial turmoil, the giant of Hong Kong's TV industry has been declining for ten consecutive years, not only in the Southeast Asian market, but also in the mainland, which was still looking up to Hong Kong ten years ago, does not have the previous "Dragon Babu" and the Spring Festival Gala The king of the drama series......

And now facing such a predicament, TVB, which has led to layoffs every year, Li Xiaole actually brought their works into the North American market, and even got more than 8 million viewers!? The Chinese drama series has received more than one million viewers in North America, or the fourth place in the same period!? Wow...... It's simply amazing!!

It's like TVB was originally struggling from the mud and just wanted to stand firm and not be swallowed up by the swamp, but as soon as Li Xiaole stretched out his hand, he took them to the sky and soared!! This is unbelievable to everyone.

In the applause, Li Xiaole just sat on the bench, holding his chin with one hand and pondering, he actually felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, he spent so much energy, gathered all the resources, and added so many propaganda offensives, as well as unprecedented 3D effects, the first episode was just over "The Walking Dead...... This is still a bit short of what he expected the average viewership of the first episode to be more than 8 million......

"Damn, it didn't reach an average of 8 million ......" Li Xiaole couldn't help muttering softly, but after thinking about it, although "Shooting the Condor" is excellent, the shooting level is not much higher than HBO's "Game of Thrones" in the future, and the first episode of "Game of Thrones" on the payroll station is only less than 2 million viewers, and he can reach 8 million on the radio station, how can the results be better than "Game of Thrones"...... Alas, he's still too greedy......

"Director Li, Director Li~!" During his contemplation, Li Xiaole suddenly heard someone shouting his name, and then he woke up from his contemplation, and saw Zeng Zhiwei, who was excited, pulling him up, and only then did he pay attention to Shao Yifu, who was in a wheelchair, and stretched out his hand tremblingly and squeezed Li Xiaole's shoulders tightly, the hundred-year-old man said in a thick Jiangsu and Zhejiang accent: "Well done~~, very well done~~" The palms of his hands were trembling slightly.

"Thank you, Uncle Six, don't get too excited, take care of your body." Li Xiaole hurriedly stood up and asked Shao Yifu to sit up straight, lest the old man be too excited and make any mistakes, and then saw that there were ecstatic faces all around, and even Nicholas Tse, who had always been cool, was shouting out the window, not knowing what he was shouting.

Li Xiaole's mind was a little blank, he didn't seem to think that he had succeeded, he just took this achievement for granted, but he was crowded by people to shake hands with him one by one, and he didn't know how many "thank you" he said...... before walking out of the conference hall.

And when he took the elevator downstairs with Zeng Zhiwei, he just stepped into the lobby on the first floor of the TVB building, and saw rows of people standing on both sides, and when he saw him coming, they all applauded solemnly, Li Xiaole was stunned, but immediately recognized that several of them were when he and Cheng Long Zeng Zhiwei were eating on the street, and they met those TVB actors, and these people seemed to be students of the wireless actor training class.

"Director Li, they all watched "Shooting the Condor" in the staff hall just now, and heard about the ratings in the United States...... I can't stop me if I have to come......" explained a staff member sweating profusely.

"It's okay." Li Xiaole waved his hand to indicate that it didn't matter, seeing the pleasing and sincere respect in the eyes of the young people in Hong Kong who stood in two rows of more than 100, as well as a kind of fanatical worship from the heart, he also felt very wonderful......

He still remembers that when he first came to TVB to talk about cooperation, these young people in Hong Kong respected and admired Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long, but they were wary and hostile to him, a mainland director, and he understood that this had nothing to do with his status and director's fame, this was the natural sense of superiority of these Hong Kong young people over him, a mainlander...... They are unwilling to admit that they have surpassed those legendary directors who represent the pride of Hong Kong people, and even feel that they are here to touch the halo of those superstars in Hong Kong.

And tonight, after the broadcast of "Shooting the Condor", he felt that these young people looked at him in a completely different way, and he used a group of young people who were not impressed by American movies, and was finally impressed by his feat of personally leading this group of Hong Kong elites into the North American market, these young people looked at their eyes and no longer had hostility and suspicion, but a kind of admiration and worship for the strong, Li Xiaole couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions in his chest, slowly walked through the crowd, enjoying their thunderous applause.

Walking out of the TVB hall under a pair of reverent eyes, Li Xiaole couldn't help but turn his head and smiled at Zeng Zhiwei and sighed: "Brother Zeng, do you know, in fact, one of the biggest dreams I had when I was a child was to enter the wireless actor training class like them......"

"Le ......" Zeng Zhiwei, the "Le Zai", shouted halfway, and immediately changed his tone: "Director Li, don't laugh, it is the greatest blessing for those boys that you can come to the TVB training class to give lectures in the future..."

When Zeng Zhiwei said this, he couldn't help but squeeze Li Xiaole's arm with some excitement and said, "Director Li, do you know...... I never thought that I would have a work screened in the North American market in my life, but I didn't expect to have this opportunity at this age~~ My old guy really didn't rely on this circle in vain......"

Li Xiaole felt Zeng Zhiwei's excitement, and nodded, looking at the windy and sunny sky, there was an incomparably smooth feeling in his chest, this feeling was not the same as the joy of success before, but more down-to-earth and satisfied, this time he not only felt that he had realized his dream, but also let a group of his childhood idols realize their dreams......
