Chapter 627: The Fat Man is Here
The show "The Masked Singer" can have such a good effect just in a musically barren place like Goryeo, let alone the kingdom of music - Mi Kingdom.
Xuluo grew up listening to the golden songs of the Mi Kingdom when he was a child.
Whether it's Elvis's, John Denver's, Michael Jackson's, or Carpenter's, Michael Burton's...... Wait, a song in the capital is so good.
Basically, the entire 80s was an explosion period of pop music, blues music, jazz, and country music, and countless good songs and singers really emerged.
Such a singer troupe, let them participate in "The Masked Singer", it is a very interesting thing to think.
There is no reason why the Koreans can do a good job in "The Masked Singer", but the people of Miguo can't do it well?
When Xuluo went to Miguo before, he had already explained the rules, holding methods, and highlights of "The Masked Singer...... These were written in great detail to Chen Xiyue.
Chen Xiyue can negotiate with ABC to make a wonderful variety show with this.
In Xuluo's opinion, the professionalism of "The Masked Singer" is much stronger than "Miguo Idol", but in terms of viewership, I am afraid I dare not say that it is better than "Miguo Idol".
Because "The Masked Singer" does not have the grassroots nature of "Miguo Idol", and the vast majority of people in society are grassroots.
But in terms of excitement, "The Masked Singer" is definitely superb.
Those who love music, will love it so much.
However, no matter how quickly "The Masked Singer" is prepared, I am afraid it should be after October.
It is a difficult task to choose so many singers and convince them to participate in the competition in various masked ways.
Miguo singers are also notoriously unruly.
Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about these problems, and he was still watching the progress of the BP machine.
In fact, the BP machine entered China in 84 years, and at that time there was the first pager site in Shanghai, but because of various problems, the BP machine did not become popular.
To put it bluntly, the cost is too high, and the people are too poor.
At the beginning, the BP machine was Motorola's, more than 3,000 yuan a piece, the network access fee was hundreds, and the annual fee was still hundreds.
The 80s!
The worker's salary is only a few dozen yuan, and the annual fee and network access fee are not enough for a year of hard work, where can I afford a BP machine?
Even now in the 90s, the usage rate of BP machines is not high, and the reason is still that - the cost is too high, and people are too poor.
But compared to seven or eight years ago, it's much better.
Because of the competition of the Japanese Benzene, the BP machine can be bought at the cheapest for 1,78 thousand.
Then there are more paging companies renting the number section of the post and telecommunications office, and the network access fee is scrambling to be cheaper.
Nowadays, about 100 can be connected to the network, the digital machine is 180 yuan a year, and the Chinese machine is 600 yuan a year.
Then people's wages have also increased by several grades, for example, the average salary of BJ has been raised to about 350 yuan.
You must know that it was only about 300 yuan last year, and it was only about 250 yuan the year before last.
This is also a corresponding rise in various prices.
If the salary can rise to 1,000 yuan a month one day, BP machines should become very popular, right?
But in fact, it can't be so simple.
It can't be said that the average salary is only two or three hundred yuan, and I feel that business is not good.
Then mobile phones are more expensive, do you know how many people in China now use mobile phones?
More than 100,000 people!
Awesome, right?
Didn't expect that, right?
This is 1992!
Who would have thought that a luxury item with a mobile phone of tens of thousands of yuan and a call fee of at least 1 yuan a minute would be bought and used by 100,000 people?
Therefore, at this stage, the target of the BP machine is those who get rich first, or those who need to do business and do things.
Not to mention anything else, many actors in the entertainment industry have long had mobile phones and BP machines.
Therefore, the BP machine did not need to be rolled out nationwide, and Liu Yanmin only contacted the paging desk business halls of the post and telecommunications bureaus in BJ, Shanghai, Yuezhou and Nanwan.
The first batch of more than 7,000 BP machines has been shipped to dozens of business halls in these four places.
All kinds of incentives have been advertised, and now it's up to those counter people to sell desperately for money.
However, the advertisements were broadcast nationwide.
Huaxia TV has it, and Shuchuan Satellite TV also has it.
The five groups of advertisers were chosen by Xuluo very well.
Ge You represents the hard-working young people who are in the wind and fire.
Jiang Wen represents a cool young man who likes trends.
Pu Chunxin represents the stability of successful people.
The regrouped Tang monk quartet represents memories and playfulness.
Temporarily pulled in to the beauty of the river. Actress Guan Zhilin represents the forefront of fashion.
They basically represent all the people who might be using BP machines.
Whether it is the advertiser or the advertising content, it is accurately delivered.
It's just that the teenager didn't think about these advertisements, as well as various sales methods, which can immediately bring about an explosion of sales and make him a lot of money.
After all, the salary level is there, and it is impossible to have much explosive ability.
In Xuluo, even if it takes half a year to slowly cultivate the market, it is bearable.
You can't be in a hurry, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
Seeing the advertisement of the four Tang monks and apprentices, Yang Jie called Xuluo and expressed her gratitude.
She knew that Xuluo must have looked at her face, and for the sake of "Journey to the West Sequel", she gave the four masters and apprentices a chance to advertise.
It's funny to say, "Journey to the West" is so famous, and the four masters and apprentices have no advertising opportunities.
Maybe it's also because there were no ads on TV stations at that time.
Not to mention them, these actors in "Dream of Red Mansions" did not get the opportunity to advertise.
If this had been placed in Xiangjiang, they would have made hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars because of advertising.
Sister Lin didn't have such a hard time before.
This time, Chen Xiaoxu has gone to the mountains of Shuchuan, otherwise there will definitely be an advertisement for her.
Whether it is status or national familiarity, Chen Xiaoxu is qualified to become an advertising star.
……
Xu Luo was busy catching up with the script of "The Flowers Bloomed and the Moon Was Full That Year", and at noon, he suddenly heard someone calling him in the courtyard.
"Arlo! Arlo!
Come out for dinner......"
Well?
Xuluo scratched his head, and said in his heart, am I hallucinating?
Why did you hear the voice of the fairy sister as the voice of the fat man?
But then, the same voice, the same words, he heard a second time.
The young man hurriedly pushed open the door and walked out, only to see the hippie smiling Wang Fat, standing in the yard, waving to himself.
"Holy!"
Xuluo said in surprise: "Fat brother, why did you come to BJ?" When did it come? ”
Wang Jing laughed and said, "I arrived last night, Doudou came to visit Vivian today, and I will come to see you by the way!" ”
Oh, it turns out that the two of them went out to travel.
Xuluo smiled, "You are also bold! Fortunately, this is not Xiangjiang, otherwise the photo news would have been flying all over the sky! ”
"That's it!"
Wang Jing said proudly: "The mainland has this good, very simple, and they don't have any cameras and video recorders, so naturally they don't want to shoot us!" ”
Xuluo scolded with a smile: "You might as well say that we are poor!" Can't afford these! ”
Wang Jing shrugged and said: "I can't say that, in fact, the mainland is much better than I came a few years ago!" The development here is just like the development of Xiangjiang in the sixties and seventies, everyone's faces are full of hope and enthusiasm, and they will definitely develop very well! ”
"Promise your good words!"
Xuluo talked to him as he walked, "What are you doing here?" ”
Wang Jing said, "Of course, take Doudou out to play for a few days?" I was filming every day, and I was so nervous that I couldn't breathe. ”
"You say that as if you're busy right now." Xu Luo said the news he got from Guan Zhilin, "You have made four movies this year, right?" Two "Truant Gaiden", two jobs you take outside? ”
"It's pretty much the same." Wang Jing raised his head and said: "No matter how you say it, I am also a big director of the 100 million dollar club, and if I shoot so indiscriminately, I will lose my identity!" ”
Last year's "Scream", the North American box office did exceed 100 million, reaching 122 million US dollars.
With a horror film that grossed more than $100 million, that's a remarkable achievement.
And the rental and sales of the video tapes of "Scream" are also very good, and it is still ranked in the top 10 of the video rental sales list.
Wang Jing is also the only Xiangjiang director with such achievements in North America today.
After he returned to Xiangjiang last year, he was named the No. 1 commercial director in Xiangjiang, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Therefore, Wang Jing himself does not have a lot of interest in those films with too bad scripts.
is not only famous, but also because in "Scream", he has already received more than 5 million US dollars.
The dividend of 40 million Hong Kong dollars is enough for Wang Jing not to worry about money for a long time.
In comparison, Xiangjiang makes a movie, even if it is Wang Jing, the director fee of a movie at most is only 3 million.
This is the highest price, unless Wang Jing still has to use the salary to buy shares.
But those garbage movies, Wang Jing is not rare at all, he used to take money to film and leave.
"Speaking of which, our "Truant Dragon" is still quite powerful." Stepping out of the door, when Xuluo was locking the door, Wang Jing said with emotion: ""Truant Weilong 2", I met a crazy movie like "Jurassic Park" in July, and I was able to win 30 million at the box office! The whole Xiangjiang was shocked. ”
Xuluo jaw head, "I, you, Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda, such a combination, in front of any movie, will not be without the power of a fight." …… How did it do at the box office elsewhere in Asia? ”
"Baodao is very good, almost equivalent to 50 million box office, Boss Cai is still very face-saving and vigorously supports the film arrangement." Wang Jing grinned, "The rest of the places, how can you divide one or two million!" ”
The "Truant Dragon" series was funded and filmed by Luohe Film and Television, and Xuluo and Wang Jing shared the rights.
Although the sharing ratio is different, Wang Jing can at least share the net profit of 20 million Hong Kong dollars.
That's the benefit of being your own boss.
