Chapter 335: The Birth of a New Record and the End of the TV Series
On the occasion of the release of many new films, the screening space of "The King's Man" began to be compressed a lot, after all, everyone likes to 'like the new and hate the old', but no matter how much the theater chain compresses, it will not be so thorough, everyone knows that "The King's Man" is the closest movie to hit the box office record of "Tai Chi Flag Flying", if the impact fails at this time, not only the producer, but also the distributors CJ Entertainment and Lotte Entertainment will not forgive.
If the quality of the movie is good and the appeal among the audience is large, there is no need for the distributor to explain that they will give the movie as many screenings as possible. In the final analysis, the theater side, the distributor, and the producer all belong to a mutually beneficial and symbiotic relationship, one needs a platform, and the other needs a good movie, so it hits it off!
According to the statistics of the theater side on March 3, as of March to 2, the number of viewers of "The King's Man" in the country has exceeded 11,616,067 people, and the results of "Tai Chi Flag Flying", which maintained the first place in front, are getting closer and closer. 's scheduling rate has increased slightly, making the process of "The King's Man" hitting this record goal easier.
On March 3, the front page of the entertainment front page of South Korea's Chosun Ilbo titled "The King's Man Will Become the "King" of the Movie", praising the current achievements of "The King's Man" at the box office, and it is almost like praising "The King's Man" to the rhythm of the sky.
This year, a movie became popular, and along with the popularity of a young artist. If you don't know what this movie is called, if you don't know who this young male artist is, then you are completely out of touch with the trend.
The name of this movie is "The King's Man", and this man is called Lee Joon-gi!
The red lips and white teeth, and the beautiful face are talking about him. If you haven't seen this movie, the author recommends that people who haven't seen it go to the cinema to watch it, and after watching it, you will understand what kind of man in the city will make Yan Shanjun love him so deeply. Feminine and masculine, a man has more beautiful ornamentation than a woman, but also full of protection that ordinary men are not equipped with, and enjoy the perfect experience brought by this gap, which makes people have nothing to ask for.
If it weren't for the personal interview with Lee Jun-ki, you wouldn't know that the big boy on the movie screen who is alluring to the country and the city is peerless in real life. I had such an experience before becoming an artist.
In high school, Lee Joon-ki's ambition was to become an actor in Seoul, but he was strongly opposed by his conservative father, who believed that it was not a profession that could support people, and even forced him to cut off his living expenses. After a big quarrel with his father, the stubborn Lee Jun-ki still took the 300,000 won (equivalent to more than 2,000 yuan) earned from his part-time job and ran to Seoul. But after only two days in Seoul, almost all the money he brought with him was spent, so he began to study at the same time. While running for his own livelihood.
In those days, Li Junji lived a very hard life, lived in an attic, worked as a car washer, and worked as a gas station worker. Also did chores for the kitchen. I used to eat only kimchi at every meal, and I was reluctant to eat even rice. Because he was hungry, he even picked up cigarette butts discarded by others in the park to smoke. For a year, he was unable to contact his family. The most regrettable thing. He was admitted to an acting school, but he gave up because he couldn't pay the tuition, but fortunately he was admitted to the film department of Seoul National University of the Arts. Lee received financial assistance from his family.
In an interview with the author, Lee Jun-gi has always said that Jung Hyuk-jae is his 'life-saving benefactor'.
Although he was admitted to the University of the Arts, his acting career did not become smooth sailing because of it, and when he failed again and again in the interview, he wanted to become a singer in the past, and he also submitted his file to S.M., the largest entertainment star factory in Korea, to participate in the interview. At the beginning of the interview, Lee Jun-gene was rejected because of his strong local accent, and the strong self-esteem of the people of Busan who was not allowed to **** in his nature was seriously hurt. But he has a perseverance that would rather not bend, he insisted on talking to Seoulians every day, and practiced desperately for a year. He thought to himself, anyway, actors are destined to imitate other people's lives, and if imitating Seoul people is regarded as a kind of acting, wouldn't it be difficult?
Because of Jung Hyuk Jae, because of this "The King's Man", Lee Jun Ki has succeeded, extraordinary success, I think that in today's entertainment industry, there is no popular student like him, it can be said that the title of this year's newcomer Wang in the entertainment industry will be awarded to Lee Jun Ki............
In fact, it is not only Chosun Ilbo that reports on "The King's Man", but in addition to Chosun Ilbo, dozens of large and small newspaper media such as JoongAng Ilbo and Dong-A Ilbo have all aimed their entertainment section with headlines on "The King's Man".
''The King's Man' Advances to the Supreme Throne and Will Create a New Era of Korean Cinema'
"The first in the history of "The King's Man" is just around the corner, and the first in "Tai Chi Flag Flying" is about to become history'
''The King's Man' Drives the Recovery of the Service Industry, with a Ripple Effect of Hundreds of Billions of Won'......
A variety of titles have attracted everyone's attention, making "The King's Man" obviously rise to a new level in the audience's attention, everyone knows that the box office performance of "The King's Man" has surpassed "Tai Chi Flag Flying" is a foregone conclusion, and everyone feels honored to be able to witness such a moment. Not only people in the film industry have expressed concern, but everyone outside the circle has also turned their attention to "The King's Man", and they all want to witness this historical moment.
"The King's Man" did not make everyone wait long, according to the statistics of the theater company on March 4, as of the 3rd, "The King's Man" exceeded 11,643,282 viewers nationwide. At the same time, in order to welcome the arrival of the weekend and accelerate the pursuit of the 100,000 gap with "Tai Chi Flag Flying", "The King's Man" once again expanded the number of theaters to 52 in Seoul and 225 nationwide, while yesterday, the number of theaters was still 48 in Seoul and 219 nationwide.
The stage greeting (audience meeting) to commemorate the 10 million audience of "The King's Man" was also held at the Seoul Theater at 8 pm on the 3rd, and director Lee Jun-ik and leading actors Gan Woo-sung, Jung Jin-young, Lee Joon-gi, and Kang Sung-yeon were all present.
According to statistics on the afternoon of March 5, according to the news published by the production company JHJFilm, ""The King's Man" broke the record of 11.74 million viewers held by "Tai Chi Flag Flying" at 4 pm today (5th). As a result, "The King's Man" has set a new record for the highest audience in 67 days since its release at the end of December last year. As of 5 p.m., the number of moviegoers nationwide has exceeded 11.75 million, successfully topping the first place in the history of Korean films, and this number is still increasing.
As of the 5th, "The King's Man" has set the following records: 1. The highest audience record in the history of Korean cinema in the shortest time, 11.8 million people in 67 days. (At the beginning, "Taiji Flag Flying" took 100 days to reach 11.74 million people) 2, the only historical drama in the TOP10 in Korean film history; 3. The first film in history to expand the number of theaters again in the 10th week of its release is called a "strange phenomenon"; 4. Korea's first film exported overseas through direct distribution.
In addition, the small-to-medium-sized film, which has a pure production cost of only 6 billion won and a marketing promotion of 2.2 billion won, has received 84 billion won in direct revenue so far. If cultural effects are taken into account, hundreds of billions of won have already been spilled over economically.
According to statistics on March 12, as of the 11th, "The King's Man" exceeded 12,015,000 viewers nationwide. Successfully stepped into the "12 million heights" and achieved the "great cause" of Korean film history, and will continue to set a new record for the highest audience in the history of Korean cinema.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………
In the 17th episode broadcast on March 8, the ratings of the TV series "Palace" officially broke through the threshold of 30% and reached 30.5%, which can be described as a great joy for MBC TV at the beginning of this year, and everyone hopes that the ratings of TV series will be higher. After all, in this way, the advertising revenue of their own crew will be higher, bringing more profits to the TV station, and the senior leaders of the station will naturally have a better and better impression of themselves.
It can be said that when the ratings of MBC TV's "Palace" exceeded 30%, the death sentence was directly pronounced on other dramas of the Mizuki Theater. Especially SBS TV's new drama "The Tree of Heaven", the ratings were crushed by "Palace", and there was not even a bit of scum left, which was so miserable that I couldn't bear to look at it directly.
Due to the cutthroat competition, the pressure of ratings, and especially the issue that is directly related to revenue. Both TV stations and production companies strive to create high-quality products in order to make a steady profit, so the composition of the TV drama production team is usually the most streamlined. It also maximizes the efficiency in terms of operation mode, and often draws on the accumulated experience of successful works to create a series of topical works. The large number of production companies has undoubtedly intensified the competition between companies, although this makes the company itself more risky in operation, but this situation has to be said to provide more opportunities for choice for both TV stations and audiences, and the competition has theoretically created more high-quality TV series.
"The Tree of Heaven" is a TV series that SBS TV had great expectations for before, and it is also a TV series with the sister chapters of "The Wedding Dress of Heaven" and "Stairway to Heaven", and even the crew members are all using the original team, and they naturally have high expectations for its ratings, but the display is a slap in the face of SBS TV, and sometimes the reality is far more cruel than imagined.
Just when MBC TV's "Palace" was on the air and KBS TV's "Golden Apple" was broadcast with stable ratings, SBS TV's "Tree of Heaven" was suddenly suspended without warning on the night of the 8th, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the audience, and as a result, SBS TV, the initiator of this incident, suffered an unprecedented credibility crisis, and the official message board was almost drowned in the spit of angry viewers.
On the evening of the 8th, as usual, the sequel to "Stairway to Heaven" was supposed to be broadcast, "The Tree of Heaven", but the TV station replaced it with the Korean movie "The Religion of Meng's Father's Three Migrations", which made the fans of Heaven waiting in front of the TV very angry. Many people used fierce words on SBS's official message board, scolding the TV station for being untrustworthy and completely ignoring the feelings of the audience.
Some netizens said, "If you don't play according to the pre-arranged schedule and change it temporarily, is it stupid to be the audience", and some netizens expressed their puzzlement about this matter, "Today is not a special day, and the TV station's practice of replacing "The Tree of Heaven" with a special movie is completely incomprehensible", and some netizens were extremely disappointed with SBS TV's expression, "Is it possible to ignore the audience's feelings just because the ratings of the TV series are low?" I am disappointed by the irresponsible and brutal behavior of the TV station."
Regarding the bombardment of the audience, a relevant person from SBS said that a notice had been made on the official website of the TV series on the 7th, and as for the reason for the suspension of the broadcast, the person explained that due to the football match on the 1st, "The Tree of Heaven" had been suspended once, so that the number of episodes broadcast in a week would become an odd number, and in order to resume the practice of broadcasting even times a week, it was decided to stop broadcasting again on the 8th.
'Are you fools to us?' ’
A sentence that was angrily ridiculed by fans of Heaven became a very popular colloquial phrase on the Internet for a while, and was flexibly used by netizens in various environments.
The audience is not stupid, SBS TV is naturally not stupid, SBS's explanation can't calm the anger at all, the only thing that is hard is the two young actors of the TV series, Li Wan and Park Shin Hye, in fact, since the start of "The Tree of Heaven", the ratings are indeed quite low, although it is the end of "Stairway to Heaven", the banner of the sister chapter, but the characters and stories are not connected with the previous work at all, plus the two leading actors are new generation actors, and their appeal is limited, As a result, the ratings have dropped to single digits shortly after the broadcast.
If the TV series "Palace" is the most favored youngest son of MBC TV, and "Golden Apple" is the eldest son of KBS TV, then "The Tree of Heaven" is definitely a cheap son picked up by SBS TV, because the single-digit ratings are really worrying, and naturally it was treated sloppily by SBS TV, the 'stepmother', which is simply less popular than "Golden Apple".
March 22nd, this day is not a good day for many fans of heaven, on this day "The Tree of Heaven" was forced to finish all the plot content, or it can be changed to explain the current situation, was cut!
SBS TV really didn't dare to continue to waste its resources in such a TV drama with only 5% of the ratings, and such a result would only feel embarrassed to say it, and it would not be possible to do it at all, and such a result could not even be compared to KBS TV's "Golden Apple".
So let's just say that TV series are risky, and investment needs to be cautious......
