Section 58 Starring

"For the victory of this bet, for the sake of this new brilliance for the ratings of our TV show, and for the sake of Leslie giving in to us - let's raise a glass to our guys!"

While several major companies were busy with this TV show, in Lynn's Bar, several people from Mystery Company were also celebrating happily.

The success of this show is indeed worth celebrating: according to CBS's statistical results, the profit obtained by the mystery company can also reach about 400 million, such a large amount of income is enough to make Alexander happy.

The ratings of 21/59 are enough to prove that this TV show, from the beginning of production, has the potential to become a classic. As long as the standard can be maintained in the future, and the program will not slip too much, then this TV program will definitely not be able to get around when people mention the production of TV programs in the future, even so, Michael, the person in charge, is of course very satisfied.

And in the end, after seeing the ratings, Leslie immediately apologized to Levy, and even came to the door to express his mistake, which also made Levi very satisfied.

"It's just that I still don't understand why so many people love our TV show after it is produced?"

Even if Leslie is gone and the TV show has been produced, Michael himself is still puzzled by the high ratings of the show.

"Actually, the reason is very simple." Levy smiled and said, "Why is our TV show popular?" There is only one reason: because our TV show is no longer a simple quiz question, but a puzzle reality show. ”

"Reality TV?" Michael asked a rhetorical question with some puzzlement, and as soon as the question came out, before Levy could explain, he understood, "That's right, reality TV!" The most important reason for the popularity of this show lies in the contestants! ”

At this time, Michael understood a little: the most attractive thing about this show is not that the gameplay is simple or the topic is tricky, but that this show can allow more people to participate.

There is not much new in the show he said, and it is not wrong: TV shows have been developed for decades, and basically the conventional gameplay has also appeared, and it is not easy to innovate the old and new. Therefore, Levy's approach is not an innovation in gameplay at all, his approach is to change the crowd of participants.

In the past, various similar programs were all participated by some celebrities, or some professional programs for professionals to play. And the difference in this show is that with the help of the simplification and regularization of the topic, more ordinary people can participate, which is the biggest difference and the most attractive place.

Reality shows have been created since 73, but in the era of underdeveloped information, people watch TV more and want to know the lives of celebrities, and they are not very interested in such reality shows. In the 90s, information became more and more developed, and the lives of celebrities were understood by everyone, and people were no longer keen to learn about celebrities through television, and they were slowly tired of the programs in which the actors on TV participated. After seeing enough of the fake smiles and polite confrontation between the two actors participating in the show, people are even more eager to see those true sides. Normal people are ecstatic when they see money, and those who lose money are like mourning, which is more interesting than the performances of the actors.

In Levy's memory, reality TV shows, that is, began to flourish in the late 90s. Moreover, once this red fire was formed, it quickly swept the world. Survival reality show survivors, life reality show big brothers, puzzle who wants to be a millionaire, talent American idols, and then those blind dates, job hunting, all kinds of reality shows emerge in endlessly, and the selling point is a real word in the final analysis. As long as the show is real, there will be people who want to watch it. And if the TV show is not real enough, then the reputation of the show will be greatly affected. Because what people want is to see the performance of real people.

Those questions, the prize money is all a disguise, and the appearance of the contestants is the point! If such a show is broadcast in such an era, it will definitely be a sensation!

In his previous life, Levy was not without contact with this kind of show, in his era, with more than ten years of development, reality shows are already quite mature. Levy knows exactly what to look out for and how to make this kind of show - of course, there may be twists and turns in the production process now, and it's unlikely that Levy will get the effect he wants right away, but so what? Anyway, there are no competitors of the same type in the market, even if this show is crudely produced, there is no need to worry about someone being able to compete for it - the gap in concept is the most unattainable gap, and there are some things that can be used to start the era, which cannot be denied.

"It's not that difficult to make money, as long as you aim at people's psychology, you can definitely make money. This show is in the right direction, how can it not make money? ”

Levy spoke with some pride, and Alexander immediately said, "Yes, it's earned, with an annual income of 400 million, even if it is peeled by the tax bureau, our income is very high." It's just, Nick, CBS wants to extend the show's proposal, isn't it a little inappropriate? You're too quick to promise, aren't you? ”

After the success of the TV program, CBS immediately proposed to extend the time of the program to one and a half hours or two hours to further expand the profit.

"The more it is played, the faster the freshness of the show passes. CBS doesn't care about fishing with all their might, they have made enough money, and they can find new programs, we ruined the program, who will ask for money? There's something wrong with what you're doing, isn't it? Alexander was still a little confused.

"Do you still plan to eat a show for the rest of your life? This show, the form is too simple, there is not much meaning, and it is really after 2000, there are more other tricks to play, and it is not worth much. Now that you've got enough, forget it. Levy replied.

Levy's statement made Alexandra understand a little, but he still felt a little pity, "400 million a year, aren't you distressed?" ”

"Don't worry, if we want to use the money in the future, won't we just do new shows? Our company is getting bigger and bigger, are you afraid that there will be no show? ”

Levy's words are true: if he really wants to play big, he can choose to make an American Idol or a TV show like Survivor. Those programs have higher ratings than such programs, and they will survive longer. It's just a pity that Levy has almost no contact with the American music industry now, and if he wants to make an American idol, he has to get in touch with the music industry first, and if he wants to make a national supermodel contest, he has to get in touch with the fashion industry - Levy's current connections, in addition to the critics, are the people in his TV drama production team, at most in the forensic industry, he has some good friends, but these people are useless for making programs. And TV shows like Survivor, although the ratings are high, but the filming process is also quite laborious, Levi is not in the mood to go to Borneo and toss around in that kind of place in order to make money.

But in the future, when you have money and leisure, are you afraid that you won't find a way? The survivors are now in Sweden, and they can buy the rights. The American Idol show is even more staggeringly paid, and a person who wants to be a millionaire is not enough to get Levy's attention.

"We don't have to worry about those things, I said, it's not difficult to want money. Now there is only one thing I'm more worried about, and that is the movie. Bob, on his side, has already given me the first version of the movie script, and the writing is okay, but some parts need to be revised. Leslie relented, and he said that he would help us contact Universal or Columbia, and we don't have to worry about it. So, the rest of the stuff is the sets, the costumes, the cinematography, the soundtrack, and then there's the actors. ”

For Levy, the best of the TV show was just a stepping stone, and now that Leslie had relented, all he had to do was make a movie. In two months, Bob was also on the spot, and now that Levy has a playbook in his hands, he is ready to start preparing for the film.

"The sets, the costumes, these are the little things, we can use CBS, and the same goes for the equipment. On the prop side, we have a relationship, so don't worry. The cinematography, the soundtrack, I came to find it myself, I have some ideas of my own, and the actors are ...... Clark, you're in charge. ”

Clark turned his head and looked at Levy, waiting for Levy's new command.

There are three main characters in the play, agent Weisman, playwright Deleman, and heroine Christina. These three people, Dreman and Christina, you go looking for actors, and Weissmann's actors, I already have an idea. ”

Weisman is the main character...... Clark said in his heart. Hearing Levy's words, he was also interested: he knew very well that Levi was also very serious about movies, otherwise he would not have been obsessed with getting the help of CBS, since this is the case, then, the protagonist he chose will definitely be a star-level actor, who will this person be?
