Chapter 350: Television

In the bright and splendid hall, well-dressed people were casually walking back and forth and talking, most of them were red-faced, looking very happy and proud. It's only natural that they're either part of the crew of "Desperate Housewives" or ABC executives, here to celebrate the opening of the first episode of "Desperate Housewives" – which garnered 21 million viewers!

"It's a wonderful counterattack, Mark, although I think this TV series is not bad, but I didn't expect it to reach this point." A tall, middle-aged man with a bald head, like this to the writer and producer Mark? Celli said.

"That's right, I'm willing to bet those who turned Mark down in the first place have now regretted it." The other smiled and chimed in, all compliments.

Of course, the premiere episode was watched by 20 million people, and even ten years ago, it was still a phenomenon worth paying attention to, let alone now that it has been diverted by the rising cable TV? And ABC has had decent TV series for several years, and after "Millionaire" was scrapped, such ratings were basically rare.

"Thank you, I didn't expect such a result, of course, without your support, the results would not be so good." Mark? Cheley was still a little modest, and then looked at Vladimir again, "And Todd, if it weren't for your support, I'm afraid I would have to keep running around to pull investment." ”

"Don't say that," Vladimir waved his hand, putting the credit on the other person, "If it wasn't for Fred who recommended you to Sean, and Sean recommended you to me, I wouldn't have taken a fancy to me." ”

"I just mentioned it in passing, it's all Sean." Frederick shrugged.

"I've long heard that Sean has a good eye, and the movie script he likes is either word-of-mouth or has a good box office, and he has also planned a talent show, and now he is going to add a TV series, right?" An executive asked, looking left and right, as if he wanted to say a few words to Sean, but unfortunately, he couldn't find it.

"Sean is still a young man, so he has to look around and talk." Frederick explained.

The other party didn't care, just shrugged his shoulders regretfully: "Okay, young man." ”

"Where did he go?" Vladimir immediately asked in a low voice.

"You've been in contact with him for a long time, can't you guess where he's going?" Frederick grinned.

Where to go? Where else to go, you know, this kind of occasion has always been ...... Vladimir soon realized this, and then shook his head, although he didn't inquire about Sean's private life, but he still heard about it somewhat, not to mention anything else, those scandals will know a thing or two as long as you pay attention to the entertainment industry, not to mention that an actress who has an unclear relationship with him was pushed to the position of the heroine of "National Treasure".

Well, I have to say, Frederick is indeed the one who knows Sean best, and he is indeed ...... at this time

"There's no one outside." After peeking out of the bathroom and looking around, Sean immediately turned back to the woman who was still cleaning up and said with a smile.

"Then you go out first." The latter threw a flattering look, and the mature charm and the charming attitude after the passion just now were extraordinarily sultry, and for a few seconds Sean wanted to do it again immediately.

Of course, he quickly restrained himself, and although the other party was charming, it was more because of the first time he tried it.

Rao was like this, he still turned around and made a brotherly desire on the woman's body, kissed her several times, and saw that he was really going to carry her into the bathroom compartment again, so he quickly slipped out again: "Then see you later." ”

"Little villain!" There was a strange sound of anger from behind the other party.

This one who made out with him in the bathroom is naturally Mary, one of the stars of "Desperate Housewives"? Lois? Parker, she has been active in the entertainment industry since the 80s, acting in stage plays, TV series and movies, but none of them have any commendable roles. It wasn't until last year, after winning the Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress for "The White House Heroes", that she became a little famous. When Celli was looking for a suitable housewife, he extended an invitation to her.

It's just that later during the audition process, Celli felt that she was not very suitable, so he almost gave up, but Sean felt that it was a good fit after learning about her situation - although he did not interfere with the specific production, only hung up the title of producer, but occasionally expressed his opinion.

Sean didn't think so because she was beautiful - well, she was still beautiful, especially with that mature charm, but he couldn't believe that she was about to be 40 years old when he first saw her, and that she looked like she was only about thirty years old when she looked at her well-maintained face and body. This aroused his interest, so he asked two more questions in the audition, and the other party's answer was that maintenance is very important to women, so as long as you have the ability, you must do your best, so he finalized her.

"Look, isn't this a living Brie? Kemp? That's what Sean said to Cellly.

In Celli's setting, one of the four housewives has a perfectionist obsessive-compulsive disorder and wants to do the best in everything, and Mary has to stay in shape just because she dies, so she is the perfect person to play this role. Although Celli has objections, Sean is the big boss of the investor, and he is not easy to refuse if he asks for help, but Mary's professional quality in the shooting made him quite admired, so he didn't say anything more.

Is it because of this that she is so blatantly **** me today? Back in the hall, Sean suddenly thought. That's right, he didn't plan to mess around at the drinking party, and there were other arrangements tonight, but what he didn't expect was that Mary actually took the initiative to tease herself, not only giving explicit hints in private, but even when talking to others, she leaned sideways in front of him, and pinched her back hand several times below.

In this case, Sean is not polite, he has never been a decent gentleman when it comes to women, but he is ...... She shouldn't be considered a married woman, right? Sean soon had the idea again. Well, it shouldn't be counted, Mary herself said that she has been separated for more than a year, she has no feelings for a long time, she has had a miscarriage for the other party before, and she is currently fighting a divorce lawsuit, which should have been decided this month, but because of some small details and the delay of the court, it was delayed to November.

"Oh, Sean, why are you Sean." As he pondered, Frederick's voice rang in his ears.

"Quite simply, I'm not going to talk about Shakespeare all the time." Sean turned his head and shrugged.

"Okay, okay, I know you're busy, but make time to come over and have a chat with these guys." Frederick grumbled angrily.

"Haven't I already come now?" Sean stretched out his hands a little helplessly.

He's not stupid, he naturally knows what to do when and when, in fact, before he gave Mary a hint to go to the bathroom, he and Vladimir had already met with several powerful people in the ABC and had a good conversation, as for those ordinary executives, they don't necessarily have to meet a few times at this drinking party, and there will be opportunities in the future.

However, Frederick is also for his own good, so Sean didn't say much, but in this way, he had to be dragged by him to meet with some people in order to expand his network.

Although it was a bit troublesome, it wasn't very boring, and it was still interesting to see some guys who believed that "Desperate Housewives" had no future in front of themselves, or were embarrassed or pretended that nothing had happened, praising the TV series.

You know, although this is nominally a drinking party held by ABC to celebrate the success of "Desperate Housewives", it is definitely not only ABC and the crew who will attend, but other TV stations, production companies, and critics will also be invited.

As mentioned before, there is a TV show in New York in May, where new and old dramas are shown together to attract advertisers as much as possible.

At that time, "Desperate Housewives" was confirmed to be broadcast on ABC because CBS couldn't watch it, but ABC hadn't released a good TV series for several years at that time, and "Desperate Housewives" was a new theme, so many people were not optimistic about the prospects, so advertisers were hesitant.

Fortunately, I saved a little face when I screened the pilot episode, and most of the people who watched it felt pretty good, and there were **** who wanted to watch it. Although a small number of people think it is average, and the highlights are a little lacking, they also think it is very creative and do not give any bad reviews.

It's just that the voice of this part of the people is too small, the exhibition is so big, and there are hundreds of TV series on display, how can it be possible to look at them one by one, so those who are not optimistic are still not optimistic, and those who should be ridiculed are still ridiculed.

There is even a producer who declared that if this kind of TV series can be a big hit, then he will never make a TV series again.

It's a pity that the guy who spoke wildly didn't come today, otherwise Sean would definitely run mercilessly in front of him, he is a young man, and he should be young and vigorous.

It's a pity that those advertisers who made a big deal at the beginning picked up a big bargain, but then again, the advertisers who participated in the trade fair were originally gambling, and they may have spent a lot of money to renew their contracts with popular TV series, but after the broadcast, because the plot was not appetizing, the ratings plummeted, and they may have spent a small amount of money but hit the jackpot.

"Desperate Housewives" undoubtedly belongs to the latter, and if you are willing to gamble, you will have to admit defeat, as long as this rating is maintained, it is an ironclad thing to increase the price of advertising fees next year.

Despite the praising looks that succumbed to the high ratings of "Desperate Housewives" and showed a pleasant look, Sean maintained his demeanor on the surface, and the smugness he showed was also moderate. Without him, he hopes that Reincarnation Pictures can produce more and better TV series, just like asking Vladimir to find a way to get the movie rights of Transformers, since he decided to develop the production company better, then of course he should find a way to collect more and better scripts, so it is still very necessary to maintain a certain degree of contact with these people.
