Chapter 648: The Ratings War Begins
The time comes to Thursday in Los Angeles time, Friday in Kyoto time, there are no new movies released this week, but the schedule of "The Voice of China" has come to a critical node, after fierce competition, the top four of The Voice are all produced, and the finals will be ushered in next Friday, and there will be a live broadcast since the production. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info??.? `
It is worth mentioning that the production team originally held the finals in the Bird's Nest Gymnasium, but was later vetoed by Lin Yuquan, in his opinion, holding the finals in the Bird's Nest is a complete gimmick and a commercial interest, but it is not conducive to the quality of the program.
As we all know, the larger the concert event, the larger the venue, the higher the requirements for audio equipment, under the same sound equipment conditions, large venues are obviously not as good as small indoor venues, to this day, the program still needs such a hype gimmick? Do you still need to pursue the ticket revenue of a concert?
Obviously, "The Voice of China" does not need it at all, the quality of the program is the foundation of the program's long-term survival, and he will never allow the so-called show to sacrifice the quality of the program and make a lot of trouble, and he doesn't want the audience who has been chasing the whole season to be disappointed in the last episode.
From a simple business point of view, such an operation seems stupid, but Lin Yuquan does not think so, in the short term, it may be true, but in the long term? Today, "The Voice of China" has undoubtedly become a benchmark for domestic TV programs, soaring to 8.65% horror ratings fully shows how popular the program is across the country, as long as "The Voice of China" has been doing its best to do a good job, then in the future for a long time, it will be the most amazing TV program in China to attract money.
In contrast, the short-term pursuit of profit will only kill the chicken and take the eggs, once the audience is disappointed in the finals, it is bound to reduce the sense of expectation for the second season and reduce the brand value of "The Voice of China??.?". And this season has done so, will the next season do more things that will damage the quality of the show for greater commercial interests, once the audience's disappointment accumulates to a certain level, when the audience chooses to abandon the show. Naturally, the show has nothing to do, and there are no commercial interests.
Since no matter which angle he considers it, it is not the situation he wants to see, Lin Yuquan naturally insists that the finals be held in a small studio. However, considering factors such as stage facilities, the venue was not selected in the gymnasium where it had been recording, but finally in the largest recording studio of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV.
Overall, the show has reached this stage, which can be called perfect. If you say it's a pity, the main thing is that Linlin didn't make it to the finals after all, but it's normal, the level of students in the first season of The Voice is very high, Linlin hasn't been learning to sing for a long time after all, and being able to enter the top four of Naying's group is enough to show her own talent, which is enough, and when the song is finished, she can arrange for her album production.
At the same time that the top four of "The Voice of China" were all announced, no new movies were released at Shuguang Films. On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the degree of attention received by "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" can be imagined, coupled with the full promotion of all investors, including China Film and Shuguang Film, once the film was released, the box office exploded, and it took only half a day to hit the box office of 2o320,000.
At the same time, the word-of-mouth evaluation of the film is also quite good. is considered to be a rare and dogmatic main theme movie, just watching the stars is worth the ticket price, and there is an argument that for young movie fan audiences. The most exciting thing about the film is not the plot itself, but the counting of stars, "Ah, Li Lianjie", "Sun Honglei's reporter looks a little like in "Latent"! "Is that Liu Yifei?" "Why did Lin Yuquan come out...... As soon as a star's face appears, there will be an exclamation in the theater.
The arrival of good news naturally made Lin Yuquan, who was in New Zealand, happy, and the preparations for the Voice finals were in an orderly manner. The box office situation of several films in theaters invested and produced is good, "Sherlock" is a huge success, as long as you do your best and maintain the quality of the series, even if the competition is fierce, the ratings will definitely not be bad, nothing more than how successful it is, and so on, in addition to being busy with filming, his attention has also fallen on the recent 6 consecutive releases of "The Moon", "The Empire of Babel" and the listing of Huayi Brothers, especially the listing of Huayi Brothers, whether from the perspective of commercial return on investment or strategic considerations, its importance is much higher than that of " The Moon and the Empire of Babel.
Suppressed by Shuguang Film, although Huayi Brothers is far better than similar private film and television companies in terms of popularity and performance income, it is not too optimistic, and it is far less than the popularity of various brokerages for the future listing of Shuguang Film, but after Shuguang Film invested in the shares and the two sides reached a strategic cooperation, Huayi Brothers' optimism in the capital market has suddenly increased significantly, and then with the advancement of the two major projects of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Blood Battle Changle Village", the popularity has risen again and again.
Coupled with the active public relations of Shuguang Film and Huayi Brothers, according to reliable sources, although the relationship between the two parties touches related party transactions, it will not affect the listing process, if nothing else, Huayi Brothers will pass the review of the audit agency at the end of the month and become a company approved for listing on the GEM.
With the rapid growth of the film market, the potential of the film industry has long been recognized by the capital community.
On Monday, Kyoto time, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" really lived up to expectations and achieved a weekly box office of more than 100 million, and it took only two and a half days to sweep the box office of 1o30 million yuan nationwide, ranking third in the year, second only to "Transformers 2" and "Immediate Rescue".
At this point, this week's box office situation is clear at a glance, China Film cannot arrange Hollywood blockbusters to block the way of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", and no domestic film company will choose to let its own seed players go to the "Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" is bound to dominate the box office market this week, and there is obviously no suspense about the box office breaking 100 million in a single week and the cumulative box office breaking 200 million, only what kind of results can be achieved.
For Lin Yuquan, there are undoubtedly a lot of highlights this week, from Monday to Sunday every day, Kyoto time Monday afternoon, the weekly box office of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" was released, and the time to come to Kyoto time on Tuesday, Los Angeles time on Monday night, the real ratings war of the autumn file of the national TV screen began.
"Two and a Half Heroes", "CSI: Miami", "Dr. House", "Detective Psychics", "The Big Bang Theory", "Mom and Dad's Romance", "Heroes", such seven old dramas, their lineups are undoubtedly extremely prominent, according to the average number of viewers in a single season last year, the seven are ranked fifth, seventh, ninth, twenty-fourth, twenty-sixth, thirty-first, and thirty-third in the drama category.
It must be known that the best schedule for TV screens in the United States is Thursday, and the number of viewers is much higher than that of Monday, and it is not easy to get such results on Monday's TV screens.
Although they are also old dramas, because there are many factors that affect the ratings, it is natural that the ratings of the previous season cannot be simply judged by the ratings of the previous season, and in the media's predictions, "Two and a Half Heroes", "CSI: Miami" and "Dr. House" who leads the ratings of Monday dramas are possible, and the three are only hundreds of thousands of viewers different from each other, and for the three with the lowest 1352 viewers, their positions may change at any time due to a certain factor.
"The Big Bang Theory" will be more than "The Big Bang Theory" if there is no accident, the rise of "The Big Bang Theory" is too fast, its average viewership in the first season was 8.31 million, thanks to the excellent quality, the average viewership in the second quarter of last year climbed to 9.98 million in one fell swoop, only 2o million behind "The Soul Detective", and in the past few weeks, the number of viewers for its rebroadcast has approached the same rebroadcast of "Two and a Half Heroes", "CSI: Miami", not only "Soul Detective", There is even the possibility of becoming a dark horse and blowing up the first three in one fell swoop.
The positions of "Mom and Dad Romance" and "Hero" should not change much, but the ratings will, especially "Hero", for the simple reason that "Hero" and "Prison Break" can be described as difficult brothers, and they are generally considered to be coming to an end, and their first season was very amazing, and finally received an average of 14.33 million viewers. What is really disastrous is that the ratings of the third season are only 9.38 million, which directly leads to the dismissal of the two main creators who have been the producers and screenwriters of the show since 2oo6.
So what is the result? Will there be any surprises? When the time came to Los Angeles time on Tuesday, the answer was revealed as scheduled.
"'Dr. House' leads the ratings, and 'Hero' suffers another nightmare." (To be continued.) )
ps: Shame, I wrote a little half last night, and I was going to watch TV and continue to write, but I couldn't stop when I saw "Divination", and there was a mistake in one place in front, "Hero" was broadcast on Monday, US time, Ni Mei, I didn't see it clearly before it was the 22nd Beijing time, and I subconsciously thought it was American time.
