Chapter 257: Abnormal Results

Compared to Avril's hesitation, Taylor is obviously much more decisive.

The two girls have their own ideas, but their starting points are very different.

Avril is obviously because she feels that the heroine of "Twilight" is too simple, and if she doesn't give something, it seems to be a little unsteady, which is also human nature.

As for Taylor. What about Swift? She obviously misunderstood Link, but this 'misunderstanding' has been spread by countless people, and it has become an iron-clad 'fact'!

Taylor just had a trend of popularity, and of course she was not willing to give up like that.

Now she is not as popular as in later generations, there is not much more than her in the company, and there is no one less than her, so naturally no one is willing to invest too many resources in her.

And Link obviously doesn't know that he is influencing the future course of the two girls' lives. Now he is planning the return to filming for the second half of "Prison Break", as well as preparations for "Twilight".

When Link was back in the middle of a busy filming, CAA TV issued a statement based on his instructions.

"After the second half of the Prison Break season is filmed, it will not be renewed! The return of the second half of the season will be the final half of "Prison Break". At the same time, "Twilight" has been upgraded to the schedule, and the filming will be personally directed by Boss Link, and the preparations have begun, so stay tuned! ”

This brief statement has actually been booked for a long time, in addition to giving a preview of "Twilight", the decision to shoot only one season of "Prison Break" has actually been decided a long time ago.

At that time, the advertising bidding for "Prison Break". Link made a promise to everyone advertisers, and he naturally wouldn't break his promise.

However, the huge "Prison Break" fan base. But he became agitated.

Anyone who is addicted to "Prison Break" and can't extricate themselves loves this magical American drama deeply.

However, now CAA TV station has said that "Prison Break" will only be filmed for one season and will not be renewed after that, which is simply something that no one can face.

As soon as this statement came out, it simply made everyone in the TV industry dumbfounded, and some people even said publicly: "Is Link crazy again?" I don't need to explain how popular "Prison Break" is, right? It's hard for other TV stations to have a popular American drama. As long as you catch one, which one hasn't been filmed for more than ten years? You're good enough to just give up? I really don't know what to say about you. Should I praise you for making an amazing decision? Or should you be accused of being too arrogant? ”

There are always a few people who know the inside story, and this part of the people obviously won't stand up to explain anything for Link, and every major TV station doesn't want to have a strong competitor.

And now. The statement that "Prison Break" will only be filmed for one season has come out. It can be regarded as a great relief to every TV station that is preparing for the return premiere of its own American drama.

Although the ratings of "Prison Break" are not the highest, and even lower than the ratings of some American dramas, "Prison Break" is a 'high-quality' American drama, and the ratings cannot explain its value at all.

The viewership group of "Prison Break" is the amazing thing about this unAmerican drama! The 'three high groups' with high education, high income, and high status are definitely a miracle in the history of American dramas.

And now, when this part of the people got the CAA TV statement. Obviously will not agree.

"After months of waiting, I finally looked forward to the return of "Prison Break". Link said that he would only shoot one season? Have you asked us prison break fans how they feel? Could it be that the ratings of "Prison Break" are not performing well? You're going to want to cut it down? Obviously it can't be! Almost everyone in my institute is a big fan of Prison Break! I don't think its ratings will be too low, right? ”

When the netizen, who claimed to be the 'head of a senior scientific research team at a research institute', began to complain, it also triggered a protest from a large group of 'prison escape fans'.

"Well, after a few months of waiting, Link will let us see this? It's unacceptable! ”

"Lao Tzu has money, Link, you say, how much does it cost to keep filming "Prison Break"? Isn't it okay for Lao Tzu to come out by himself? ”

"The brothers upstairs are really magnificent, in that case, it is better for everyone to raise a little money. I heard that the people who watch "Prison Break" are all high-income groups, and everyone has a 108,000 yuan, which shouldn't be too much of a problem, right? I can't stop filming "Prison Break", this is the first American drama I've been chasing over the years. ”

……

Just when the 'prison escape fans' were arguing, everyone who saw these discussions felt deeply shocked.

Although 'Nielsen Data' has long released data analysis and said that the audience of "Prison Break" is basically a high-income and high-educated group, it is only now that everyone understands that these people are really rich.

If everyone can contribute 180,000 yuan, then even if only one-tenth of the 20 million prison escape fans are willing to pay, it is quite a large amount of money.

When the noise of the prison escape fans began to become hot, the people in the TV industry who saw this situation were constantly smiling bitterly.

"Where are you going to find such a loyal audience? But Link, he really gave up! Oh, my God! It's really more human than human, and it's infuriating. ”

Although the gang is very happy, Link has already flown to 'Juliet City' and is busy directing the filming of the second half of "Prison Break".

Although the senior management of CAA TV wants to save this turmoil, they don't know where to start.

However, when the 'Nielsen Data Company's regular annual report for last year was released, this was the reason why the storm was suppressed.

Actually, it can't be said that it was suppressed, but it was scared.

When everyone saw the annual report of Nielsen Data, they were so shocked by a certain data that they almost burst their eyes.

“…… In the autumn broadcast season of 2004, the most profitable American drama in a single episode - "Prison Break", with a maximum profit of 104.66 million yuan per episode, and an average profit of 100 million US dollars! ”

When I saw that "Prison Break" dominated the entire profit list, and it was far behind the second place by ten times in a crushing attitude, such crazy data almost caused questions about "Nielsen Data" again.

However, it is clear that 'Niels Data' is a long way to grow, and when "Prison Break" first started broadcasting last year, its 18-49 RAT ratio was quite high, and the high almost pulled 'Nielsen Data' into the quagmire.

But now, "Nielsen Data" has released the advertising revenue of "Prison Break", and everyone is relieved to see that several of the largest companies in the United States, including "Rockefeller Oil", have all named "Prison Break" for $100 million.

However, even if this is the case, this kind of data is enough to surprise everyone.

You must know that although "Prison Break" is only filmed for one season, the profit of the main season is simply more than the money made by those 'hot' American dramas for ten seasons.

"Only now do I understand why Link chose to shoot only one season of 'Prison Break'! Grandma's, if you keep filming, I'm afraid other TV stations won't live, right? Link, what a nice man! However, this has hurt us loyal 'prison break fans', alas! ”

Although every TV station has long known about the advertising bidding meeting of "Prison Break" at that time, but now, some people can't help but curse secretly: "This bastard made such a lot of money, and in the end he was still praised?" It's really unreasonable! ”

Although, along with the annual data report, there are also ratings and profit data for the People's Choice Awards and the Grammys, but with the amazing data of "Prison Break", it is clear that no one will pay attention to it anymore.

Only the awards committee of the 'Grammys' has a hard time, although the ratings and profits of the 'Grammys' are much higher than the 'People's Choice Awards'. However, because the profits of "Prison Break" are so amazing, they can't publicly stand up and 'point' to Link.

As a traditional award, while not crushing the 'People's Choice Award', which is only a one-world 'grassroots award', you can't still have the confidence to humiliate others a few more words, right?

Especially when I saw that the profit of the 'People's Choice Awards' that night also exceeded 100 million US dollars, and it was not much lower than the 'Grammy Awards', this confidence was obviously even weaker.

Only those who know how to understand that when a 'grassroots award' that only holds one world, with a gap that anyone can accept, loses to a prestigious award with a long history like the Grammys, it is no longer called a failure, but a victory in disguise!

If the 'Grammys' throw the 'People's Choice Awards' away from 108,000 miles in a crushing manner, that would be the normal situation.

But now? The result speaks for itself, since it does not reach the normal situation, it is abnormal.

It is only now that people in this professional circle have seen Link's strong strength.

Needless to say, "Prison Break" can't be said to be great, because no amount of praise can tell its greatness.

Speaking of the 'People's Choice Award', this award created by Link out of thin air, has neither any background, nor any awarding authority, nor the slightest advantage that can be seen at a glance.

But such an award, which was only born through 'online voting', has had a far-reaching impact even more than the 'Grammy Awards'.

Not to mention the 'Taylor incident' that has not yet subsided, just the seemingly 'child's play' method of awarding the prize of 'online voting' is enough to surprise people.

People in the professional circle were surprised, but netizens were excited.

"Look, the People's Choice Awards are our own! What did the awesome 'Grammys' say at the time? Held at the same time and in the same place. Hey, but what about in the end? Everybody is talking about the 'Taylor Affair', everybody is talking about the People's Choice Award. As for what bullshit 'Grammy', let's stay cool. (To be continued......)
