Chapter 568: Word of mouth rises, love adjusts
If the follow-up broadcast of "Love Apartment" is very good, then it is no problem to adjust the schedule.
Li Ming groaned: "The data of the two episodes broadcast today is very good at present, but it is not bad, it is not amazing, the specific data of the three or four episodes on the second day tomorrow will come out, can the data of the first day broadcast be maintained, and can more viewers be added......
If "Love Apartment" shows the trend of the first day on the second day, with a steady increase, it will be a good TV series.
TV series, if you can't occupy the audience at the beginning, you have to rely on the development of the plot and use the big later stage to grind the data and attract the audience.
There are many TV series with a good reputation, all of which relied on the outbreak in the late stage, and the ratings soared all the way, and they reached their peak in the finale!
Not only Director Wei, but even Li Ming couldn't help but look forward to it, what if "Love Apartment" can break out by word of mouth?
Although it didn't explode at first, at least this head is good!
They are all people who have watched the finished film of "Love Apartment", this drama did not collapse in the later stage of filming, the audience can accept the plot of the first and second episodes, and they can definitely accept the follow-up plot!
With such a glimmer of anticipation, time flew by and it was eight o'clock in the evening of the next day.
And Xu Jin, who is in the distance, is still filming scenes in the Chibi crew.
Originally, he had some rest time tonight, but because today's shooting of the soldiers' battle scenes was not satisfactory, he had to move the content of Xu Jin's afternoon shooting to the evening.
Fortunately, the content happened in the military tent, and there was no day or night.
Liu Yifei and Zhao Wei are also filming closely, and compared with other male actors, the actresses in this drama are much more happy.
This is also normal, Chibi itself is a big male lead drama, and the screenwriter can really make up a copper bird platform based on the poem "Copper Bird Deep Lock Er Qiao", which increases the role of women, makes the character image fuller, has shining points, and will not overly suppress other male characters, which has been done very well.
This shoot was shot continuously for three hours.
After Xu Jin finished filming, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
At this time, he had time to take out his mobile phone and look at it, and found that it was Director Wei who called him.
After flipping through the messages, Director Wei did not send him a message, but made three missed calls to him.
Xu Jin was a little curious, Director Wei knew that he was filming "Red Cliff", and he was relatively busy, so after he joined the crew, it was not a special thing that needed to be communicated, they all sent messages to each other on the Internet.
Even when "Love Apartment" was released yesterday, they also sent a message on the Internet, so that Xu Jin could understand the conditions of "Love Apartment".
The assistant drove over, Xu Jin got into the car, and called back the phone.
The assistant wanted to drive back to the hotel, Xu Jin said at this time: "Wait here now, Liu Yifei didn't come to the assistant this time, and it's not convenient to go back to the hotel, let's take her." ”
Liu Yifei did not delay the content to be filmed in the afternoon to the evening, but had a scene with her in the evening.
The role is not too important, but it will not be simple, after all, it is to fight with Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is an old actor with a very righteous appearance.
The director originally chose to play Cao Cao not this old actor, but in the end, after comprehensive consideration, he still chose him, the only thing he was worried about was that Cao Cao was known as a "traitorous minister", whether such a decent appearance could play a good Cao Cao.
Facts have proved that the old drama bones are worthy of being old drama bones, even if they have their own appearance halo, but with such a righteous appearance, they are stunned to play Cao Cao's treachery.
There are more than that, three points!
The personalities of the characters are diverse, even if Cao Cao is a traitor, he also has an excellent side, otherwise it would be impossible to divide the world in the later period!
This actor not only showed Cao Cao's characteristics, but at the same time, they also showed Cao Cao's good side.
This will make people feel even more that Cao Cao is flesh and blood and very real.
Playing against the old drama bones, Liu Yifei, as the new generation of Hua Dan, is very stressful, but this is also a good thing.
Liu Yifei's acting skills are good, they are not bad, and her kung fu is even more powerful, and playing with actors with many acting skills can sharpen your acting skills and take your acting skills to the next level!
"Hey, Director Wei, what are you calling me for?" Xu Jin asked.
Director Wei's excited voice came: "Xu Jin, "Love Apartment" is going to be popular! ”
Xu Jin was stunned and asked extremely calmly: "What do you say?" ”
"As soon as "Love Apartment" was broadcast today, the ratings were higher than those at the end of yesterday, that is, yesterday's audience was very small, and a lot of new viewers were added!
When the first episode was played, Director Li told me that the growth rate was very gratifying, even better than the growth on the first day of broadcasting, which is due to the fermentation of word of mouth, and if this growth rate continues, it is very likely to catch up with the "Star of the Sheep" you performed before! ”
Xu Jin raised his eyebrows, he was really a little surprised.
If it can be compared with "The Star of the Sheep", it was really remarkable at that time, "The Star of the Sheep", as an idol drama that was a big hit last year, its influence and ratings are very terrifying, otherwise the treasure island would not be eager to hold a film and television theme concert.
"Love Apartment" is not an idol drama, there is no audience for idol dramas, and there is no fans and fame bonuses of big-name actors.
If the fans attracted can be compared to the stars herding sheep, it is enough to show that "Love Apartment" is good enough!
Xu Jin said in a deep voice: "Now that the broadcast is over, how is the data?" ”
Director Wei said with a smile: "If the data of just the third episode of the broadcast has gone up, and the data of the fourth episode has fallen, I won't call you personally." ”
The words turned, "The data of the fourth episode is very gratifying!" It continues to soar, and the increase is even bigger than that of the third episode! ”
Xu Jin sighed: "Did you do any publicity?" ”
Director Wei said: "I think so too, but Director Li is also at a loss and told me that the TV station's advertising is limited to the TV station, and they don't do anything to promote it, and suddenly so many viewers have poured in, and they can only have a good reputation and recommend each other to watch!" ”
Director Wei also said the idea of splitting the episodes of "Love Apartment" and delaying the release time.
The TV series also has a publicity period, and there are only 20 episodes of shooting in Love Apartment, and if you don't delay it, it will be broadcast in ten days.
And in the past ten days, maybe the TV series "Love Apartment" has just come out of the circle.
As soon as it comes out of the circle, it will be over, and seeing that the good popularity can make a sum of advertising money, even Huayu Satellite TV will feel distressed.
Xu Jin asked: "Then did Director Li agree?" ”
Director Wei shook his head: "Not yet, I said that I would have to work overtime to discuss it later, after all, the time set before was ten days to be broadcast, two episodes a day, and they didn't expect the love apartment to start in general, but the increase was better than one time, so it needs to be discussed." ”
Xu Jin was clear, "After all, the schedule is arranged in advance, and if we delay it, other programs will have to be postponed, even if the TV station wants to delay us, it is also very troublesome to coordinate the schedule." ”
He said: "Wait for the news, gold will always shine, I didn't read the script of "Love Apartment" wrong, and I won't be wrong now, whether it's delayed or not-"
After a pause, Xu Jin said with a smile: "Director Wei, you can already think about the filming script for the second season." ”
Director Wei was stunned, "Huh? ”
Xu Jin: "The response to the first season of Love Apartment is good, do you think this second season will be far away?" ”
"And at that time, do you think it will be difficult to invest? Huayu Satellite TV, I'm afraid it will try its best to match the cooperation with you in the second season! ”
Director Wei's heart pounded heavily, like a deer crashing.
He was a little confused, no wonder, he felt that the data of the love apartment was good, not only excited, but also felt that he had forgotten something.
Now after Xu Jin's reminder, it turns out that this is the case!
He forgot that the first season was good, and he could have gone to shoot the second season!
As long as the script is well polished, and this is a sitcom, he can be turned into a long-form serialized drama like "Wulin Gaiden" and "Family with Children"!
Season 2, 3, 4...... As long as Director Wei thought that he could make the love apartment series into hundreds of episodes, his heart jumped.
If it can be achieved, it can be regarded as an honorary achievement of the director!
How many comedies have been in China so far?
Very little, very little.
But once the comedy comes out, the horror ratings caused by it are incomparable to other themes, and even idol dramas can't beat it!
National TV dramas, national TV dramas, these are long-form comedies!
Director Wei's voice was sluggish, trying to suppress the excited thoughts, and said modestly: "Now the front has risen well, I don't know what the back is, the key is to see what the TV station does."
I don't dare to think too much about it, now I just want to delay the end of "Love Apartment" a little bit and have more exposure. ”
……
When Xu Jin and Director Wei were communicating on the phone, Huayu TV was inside.
Li Ming called several company bosses over, and everyone got together for a meeting to discuss "whether to extend the broadcast of "Love Apartment".
Several big bosses live near the TV station, and it is common for them to work overtime, and this meeting may also determine the performance of the TV station this year, so I have to be cautious.
Even if they knew that it was overtime, these big bosses gritted their teeth and decided to do it!
Li Ming stood at the front of the conference room, listed the release of "Love Apartment" in the past two days, the audience increase, etc., and mentioned the opinions that Director Wei had put forward before, and supported the implementation.
Looking at the data of the love apartment, the bigwigs of the TV station couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, I really didn't expect that when I watched the love apartment before, I felt that this film was very well made, and the results should not be too bad." ”
Another big guy said with a smile: "Looking at it now, it's not just not too bad, it's obviously getting better and better!" ”
"Judging from such data, if there is still an increase in the broadcast tomorrow, will it be able to reach the ratings of last year's "Sheep Star" in less than three days?"
Li Ming thought for a while and said: "Three days should not be enough, there is Xu Jin's appeal bonus on the sheep herding side, and the audience is not the same. ”
"There are no well-known stars in the film Love Apartment, and the audience of fans is different from the age of those who like to watch idol dramas, and it can be seen from the ratings growth curve of Love Apartment that the growth rate of this film is steady and rising, and it has never experienced a big rise."
With such an ratings curve, the drama friends who can also go out quickly to chase more have not lost much, and they continue to pull people in to watch, and the good reputation has played a role in drainage.
But after all, this is not the kind of group that specializes in the fan market of idol dramas, so even if you want to explode, it is impossible to do it overnight.
Only idol dramas are prone to sudden ups and downs!
The leaders looked at each other with solemn expressions.
"Then ...... Really give it an extension? One of the bigwigs said.
"Well, why don't you take a look at the data on the third day, the summer prime time is popular, and we have also watched the drama after taking over "Love Apartment", which is pretty good!"
The drama "Love Apartment" is not another drama, but "The Ultimate Three Kingdoms"!
After the production of "The Ultimate Class", the production team tasted the sweetness and started "The Ultimate Family" in one go, which was still popular, even more popular than the first class.
The second part of the series is so popular, so needless to say, the third "Ultimate Three Kingdoms" also has to be done.
Li Ming thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Why don't we ask Xu Jin's opinion?" ”
Everyone looked at each other.
Li Ming said: "Xu Jin has invested in a love apartment and has his own opinions on this drama, and he has filmed the first and second parts of the ultimate series before, and he also knows something about the ultimate series.
I was thinking about asking Xu Jin's opinion to see how to coordinate the schedules of these two films, maybe from him, we may not have an unexpected gain. ”
A leader squinted his eyes slightly and nodded slightly: "I agree, last year I went to Baodao to talk about the cooperation of "The Star of the Sheep", and I accidentally learned a news, that is, the director who filmed the ultimate series had a good relationship with Xu Jin, and even Xu Jin himself was an investor in the ultimate series. ”
As soon as the word "investor" came out, everyone's eyes changed, and inevitably, they thought of Tang Ren.
As a well-known large company in the industry, they know that Tang Ren's rules and regulations are very strict, and Xu Jin is an investor in the ultimate family and an actor in the ultimate family.
The relationship between the actors and the crew is so close that it is difficult not to wonder if they have cooperated with each other more secretly, hiding from the company.
I just don't know if Tang Ren got the news there, and what he thinks in his heart.
"We don't have to worry about other things at work, and we can't take care of them, everyone takes care of their mouths and doesn't leak anything.
We have to firmly grasp Xu Jin, judging from his current investment vision and acting popularity, he is an opportunity for our TV station to reach a higher level, and what we have to do now is to have a good relationship. ”
The most senior boss spoke, and the other bigwigs responded one after another, and even Li Ming nodded cautiously.
Everyone present knows that Xu Jin is very likely not to renew his contract with Tang Ren next year, and this year is a very sensitive stage.
In case Tang Ren definitely wants to put Xu Jin in his hand, I'm afraid that these news will be released.
When others release it, the TV station can't control it, but this news must not leak out from the TV station.
"Call Xu Jin." is also the most senior boss, said in a deep voice.
