From October 17th, "Heartless Mage" officially landed on the arc search video, and an episode was updated every Friday and Saturday at 24:00.

In just 20 episodes of online dramas, the contract amount is as high as 100 million, normally speaking, it is almost impossible for Arc Video to make a profit with this drama this time, and most of the judgment in the industry is that Arc Search will lose money this time.

The quality of Huashang Media's dramas must be guaranteed, but applauding and staking does not mean that only 20 episodes of content can earn back 100 million for the website, but even if you lose money, it doesn't mean that Arc Video will lose money this time, the characteristics of video websites are that the more money you lose every year, the more websites you can survive to the end, and those who have no money to lose are often eliminated by the industry in the first batch.

And the reason why "Heartless Mage" can be sold so expensive, in addition to the quality assurance that Huashang's production must be a high-quality product, the strong cast of the online drama is also a reason that cannot be ignored.

The actors of the original time and space "Heartless Mage" are all newcomers, but this time and space are different, Chen Bi who plays Wuxin, Zhang Ruoyun who plays Zhang Xianzong, and Jin Chen who plays the crescent moon, these are all proper first-line quasi-first-line, everyone has several popular movies with a box office of hundreds of millions or even billions and phenomenal hit dramas with big ratings, and the dramas starring these people should logically be the object of competition by the five David TV and even CCTV, and the only reason why it has become a web drama that is still looked down upon at this stage, It can't be broadcast on the stars because of the subject matter.

The production cost of a single episode is 2.5 million, and many CCTV dramas at this stage have not yet reached this production standard.

Among the main actors of "Heartless Mage" in this time and space, Chen Yao, who plays Yue Qiluo, is not famous, and even said that Chen Yao is not famous at this time, Chen Yao was still studying at Beijing Film Academy when "Heartless Mage" was prepared, and before she was selected to play Yue Qiluo, she had never even played a role in a film and television drama, not even a supporting role!

It can be said that "Heartless Mage" is her debut novel.

At the beginning of the preparation of "Heartless Mage", the selection of Yue Qiluo made producer Chen Zhixi sad. The role of Yue Qiluo requires the actor to look like a 16-year-old girl, and her aura is strong enough, and she also has a sense of evil worship. It's not hard to find an actor who meets one of them, but it has to be girly, evil, and have a very strong aura, which is very difficult to find, and these requirements are fundamentally contradictory to some extent.

Of course, Li Mu knew that Chen Yao, who was still studying at the Beijing Film Academy, was very suitable, and he proved it in his previous life, but he didn't want to be like a god stick every time, pinched his fingers, and then told the producer Chen Zhixi: "If you find a suitable candidate for Yue Qiluo, you still need to find a class on the Beijing Film Campus", it doesn't matter, his surname is Li, and he is not surnamed Zhuge , let alone Li Chunfeng.

Later, the crew was publicly auditioned at the Beijing Film Academy, and Li Muhuang also went at that time, first for Chen Yao, and secondly, to relax and play by the way.

Huashang Media's public casting in Beijing Film is impossible without causing a sensation.

Now most of the post-85 smash hit actors became popular directly after being photographed by Huashang Media, and now Huashang has entered Beijing Film for public casting, and even Li Mu has appeared in person, I am afraid that another lucky person in the film and television industry will be born!

However, at that time, seeing that the day's casting had come to an end, and it was about to be called a day, but Chen Yao still didn't show up, Li Mu even had to inquire in person, Chen Yao and another girl were late, depending on the situation, Chen Yao was still hard-pulled by his girlfriend as a companion, and the result was naturally that after Li Mu casually asked the other party a few questions, Chen Yao, who came with his friend, was directly signed by Huashang.

At that time, both Chen Yao and her friend were a little confused, but they didn't expect that what they wanted to choose was not selected, but what they didn't want to choose was hit, and it was Li Mu who took the board himself.

For a newcomer who is interested in developing in the entertainment industry, everyone knows what it means to be able to enter Li Mu's eyes, so after the dust finally settled, almost everyone who knew Chen Yao at that time was lamenting her good luck.

Everyone also learned later that in fact, Chen Yao was not uninterested in Huashang's new drama this time, but chose a relatively stable crew after realizing that there was no drama.

Just a few days before Huashang's casting, someone recommended a small role to her that she was relatively sure of, and her mind was on the more pragmatic drama, so she didn't swarm to audition for Huashang's new drama like most of her classmates, but she didn't expect to be dragged by a friend to be a companion, but she was given a glance by Li Mu.

Now after nearly a year of intense filming, the web series is finally about to be officially launched.

On the day the online drama was launched, many of Chen Yao's relatives and friends called or sent WeChat messages to congratulate her, and everyone said that Chen Yao would definitely be an instant hit this time, and even within a few years, he would be able to become a first-line star like those predecessors of Huashang.

Whenever this time Chen Yao said very modestly that her role this time is just a small supporting role, this time the protagonist is Wuxin played by Chen Hao, Li Yueya played by Jin Chen, and Zhang Xianzong played by Zhang Ruoyun.

So did Chen Yao ever think that he might become an instant hit this time?

Of course I thought about it!

It's human nature, but at the same time, she really doesn't believe that she can make a name for herself with just one debut film. It's like ordinary people buying lottery tickets, have the people who bought them ever thought that they might be able to win millions or even tens of millions?

I must have thought about it, otherwise why buy lottery tickets?

But do these people really believe that the ticket they hold in their hands can really win the jackpot? Certainly not really.

Before the official release of "Heartless Mage", Chen Yao probably had this mentality.

Then on November 17th, "Heartless Mage" was finally officially launched and broadcast.

Then twenty-four hours after the official launch, Zhang Chaoyang personally announced the data on Weibo: on the first day of the launch, "Heartless Mage" was played 47 million times!

And then:

52 million views on the second day of launch!

The number of views almost exceeded 100 million in two days after it was launched, and "Heartless Mage" showed the characteristics of a hit from the beginning.

Since then, the number of broadcasts of this drama in a single day has not been less than 50 million, and it is said that on the third day of broadcasting, Zhang Chaoyang revealed at the company's internal meeting that the company bought the online copyright of "Heartless Mage" for 100 million yuan, and there is a high probability that it will not be able to lose.

And with the increasing popularity of "Heartless Mage", more and more people on the Internet are mentioning Yue Qiluo.

After noticing that more and more people mentioned herself, and a considerable number of them also used adjectives like amazing, especially after noticing that her real name Chen Yao was also being mentioned by more and more people, Chen Yao finally intuitively felt that he might really be "popular" this time.

Maybe it's already "red".

It's still a little weak to say "red", or it's uncomfortable, after all, Yue Qiluo in "Heartless Mage" is still the first role she played, and even the casting was pulled away by a friend, and this role is not the protagonist yet.

Until one time she went to the supermarket as usual, but people frequently looked at her along the way, and even someone came up directly to ask her, saying whether she was Yue Qiluo in the popular "Heartless Mage" that is now on the air?

After receiving her admission, the man was shocked at first, and then asked her for an autograph in great surprise.

Chen Yao first sighed that she was very different from the dress in the play, but she didn't expect that she could be recognized, and then she thought in hindsight: "Am I already a little "red" now?" ”

Then he shook his head a little unconfidently: "Chen Yao, don't think too much, what kind of red is it to be recognized by one or two people?" This is just a special case, Chen Yao, you have to hold steady! ”

However, it is clear that this is not a special case, take this trip to the supermarket, she has been recognized no less than five times before she arrives at the supermarket, which also forced her to temporarily wear a mask and sunglasses.

"I didn't expect to need to wear sunglasses and a mask when I went out so soon, hey! What a change! ”

After coming home from the supermarket, Chen Yao couldn't help but sigh, but although she seemed to be complaining at this moment, the corners of her mouth had unconsciously taken on an arc.

Of course, there will be a lot of trouble when it is "red", but who doesn't want to be "red"? If you don't want to be "red", will you be admitted to the Beijing Film Academy?

"Heartless Mage" is still on the air, and "Let's Get Married", jointly promoted by the four David TV and the four major video website platforms, has officially met with TV viewers and netizens across the country.

On Friday, October 31, the prime time - Beijing TV, Oriental, Suzhou Province, Zhejiang Province Five David TV will be broadcast simultaneously.

At ten o'clock in the evening, iQiyi, Tengxun, Youku, and Soarc - the four major video websites will launch Li Mu and Liu Yifei's new drama "Let's Get Married" at the same time.

This time, there are all kinds of blessings from the right time, place and people, which makes the popularity of "Let's Get Married" outrageous, even to the point that fans of Huashang, Li Mu, and Liu Yifei are a little weak.

"Did you find out? Many junior high school students and even elementary school students are talking about "Let's Get Married", the popularity is too high, and it doesn't necessarily feel like a good thing. ”

"It's not just a primary school student, my grandmother has asked me about when "Let's Get Married" will be broadcast in the past few days, I dare to swear, my grandma usually rarely watches TV, this time she took the initiative to inquire with me, to be honest, the popularity of "Let's Get Married" this time is a little scary."

"I'm afraid that the steps will sell too big and pull eggs! It's too high now, in case it's not as good as many people imagine after the release, then these people should turn their heads and scold! ”

Some netizens compared the popular "Heartless Mage" with "Let's Get Married":

"Suddenly I thought of a particularly interesting thing, isn't it a mess of "Heartless Mage" that is on fire now? In case of...... I mean, what if, after "Let's Get Married", which is blowing in the sky now, goes online, there is a 'pop', the fire goes out, and it is not as hot as "Heartless Mage", what should everyone say then? Will Li Mu and his family be particularly embarrassed? ”

"Oh, that's a possibility! There are too many such things in the entertainment industry, and the film and television dramas that are expected to be very popular turned out to be dumb, and they didn't think they could be popular, but in the end, they became popular. ”

"'It's easy to pull eggs when the steps are big'! This sentence is definitely a truth-level famous aphorism. ”

Then "Let's Get Married" was officially released, and the relevant data of the premiere was officially announced the next day.

On the day of the premiere, the average rating of Sioux Satellite TV was 2.13.

The average rating of Beijing Satellite TV is 2.01.

Zhejiang Provincial Satellite TV 1.94.

Dragon TV 1.87.

In this era when the ratings break 1 can be blown up, and the double station breaks 1, "Let's Get Married" directly broke 2 on the first day, and the four stations exceeded 1.8%, there is no doubt that "Let's Get Married" is a phenomenal TV series.

According to the data, the highest rating on the first day of "Let's Get Married" was 2.13% on Suzhou Provincial Satellite TV, ranking seventh from 2004 to 2014 and provincial satellite TV ratings.

But it should be noted that this is the result after the four satellite TV stations diverted the audience, and it is only the results of the first day of the TV series.

Normally, the peak of TV drama ratings tends to be in the middle or late stages of TV dramas.

On the first day of the release of the original time and space "The Legend of Miyue", the average rating of Beijing Satellite TV was 1.72, and the average rating of Dragon TV was 1.56, but the single episode ratings of the two stations in the middle and late stages were above 3.7%, and in the end, its average score on Dragon TV was 2.867%, and the average rating on Beijing Satellite TV was 2.806%.

At present, judging from the data of the first day of "Let's Get Married", there is a high probability that its average ratings on the four channels will all break 2.

Four TV Break 2, so far no TV series has ever won such an award, if "Let's Get Married" can really achieve this achievement, it will be properly unprecedented.

It is said that it is unprecedented, because there has never been such an achievement before, and it is said that it is unprecedented, because from next year, the TV industry will officially implement the policy of one drama and two stars.

In the future, a drama will be broadcast on two local satellite TVs at most at the same time, which means that even if there is a drama that is a mess in the future, it will break 3 or even 4 at most, and then think about 4 stars and 2?

Sorry, the policy it doesn't allow anymore!

In addition to showing his skills on TV stations, "Let's Get Married" also performed well on video website platforms. On the first day of the official launch, the broadcast volume of the four major platforms all exceeded the 70 million mark, of which iQiyi and Tengxun even directly broke through the 90 million mark.

On the day of the premiere, the total number of views of the four major video website platforms reached 350 million.

It's hot - this is almost the consensus of the vast majority of people.

And the reputation of this TV series is also very good, with a Douban score of 8.1 on the first day of launch, surpassing most TV series of the same type.

Many netizens even said impatiently after watching only two episodes that "Let's Get Married" will be the best TV series of the same type in the past ten years, and I am afraid that the only one that can be compared with it is "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law" starring Huang Haibo and Haiqing.

"Okay, okay, my drama shortage is finally cured, the key to watching the drama is to be on the channel, I don't know what others think, anyway, I'm on the channel with "Let's Get Married".

"It's not - this drama is really like what is said on the Internet, in fact, it was specially created by Li Mu for marriage proposal? How so? Can Li Mu propose once a year in the future? There is no other meaning, that is, if marriage proposal can create this kind of drama, then for the happiness of the majority of drama mysteries, can these two people work a little harder and ask for a few more times? ”

This netizen finally added a toothy emoji.

"Stir-fried chicken looks good! If you want to say that it is insufficient, there are also, I personally feel that the biggest problem is that Li Mu is too handsome, and I feel that the male protagonist of this kind of drama is still a little ugly, such as Huang Haibo in "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law". ”

"I feel the same way, if the actor is too handsome, it will be an idol drama, if the actor is a little uglier, it will feel more life-like."

"It sounds really reasonable, but this drama is specially used by our director Li Da to propose marriage, and it is definitely not appropriate to change other actors, so it can only be like this."

"If you want me to say that this is the most appropriate, or you think about it yourself, Huang Haibo and Liu Yifei stand together and play a couple, can this have a sense of CP?"

"That's right, when I heard you say this, I suddenly felt that Li Muyan was really quite suitable."

"Huang Haibo: What does the actor who should use ugliness have anything to do with me Huang Haibo?"

Netizens imitated Huang Haibo's tone of speech, which immediately made countless netizens laugh.

"Why are you so compared, don't you count it yourself?"
