Chapter 369 Wei Yang’s status and deterrence

On July 7, under the intense pre-publicity, "Qing Yu Nian 10" successfully premiered.

Average ratings for the day - 2.51
It was slightly higher than the first part of "Celebrating More Than Years", but it didn't reach the 3 that many people clamored for in the premiere.

It stands to reason that with the foreshadowing of the first film, the popularity of the major actors has become much higher. Still in the best time of the year, the summer season, the ratings data of "Qing Yu Nian 2" should be even more explosive.

But in fact, we have to consider here that in the past year and a half, the TV market has been in a stage of rapid shrinkage.

As I said before, the focus of the current TV drama market has begun to shift from TV stations to the Internet.

Although the former is temporarily superior, it no longer has the overwhelming advantage it once had, and even this advantage is quickly being erased or even reversed.

Judging from Wei Yang's experience in his previous life, the TV station can still last for a few years.

Especially the subsequent explosion of popular idol dramas and many phenomenal variety shows achieved the final glory of the TV platform.

Probably around 2015, the Internet platform completely emerged, and the two sides were in a stalemate. It was not until after 2018 that the decline of the TV station was unstoppable.

The market isn't quite there yet, but it's starting to go downhill.

According to normal logic, the ratings of "Qing Yu Nian 2" should have higher expectations.

However, due to the overall sluggish environment, Blue Whale and Wei Yang believed that they would be very satisfied if they could achieve the results of the first part.

Compared with the "conservatism" of the TV market, the popularity of "Celebrating More Than Years 2" on video websites is truly crazy.

The number of views exceeded [-] million in [-] hours!

24 million plays in 2.2 hours!
Breaking 10 billion in six days!
Even Boss Wei couldn't help but call Boss Jia and hinted that the data can be fake, and every company is really doing it, but you can't pour it into the sea like this.

The TV station is almost breaking 3, but you have achieved 10 billion views in less than a week.

I bet all Chinese people don’t do anything anymore. They squat in front of the TV and computer every day and watch "Qing Yu Nian 2", right?

Boss Jia was just messing around, it was so inconsistent with reality and logic that Blue Whale was embarrassed to publish the press release.

That's it for ordinary viewers. People who don't understand the industry can easily spot the fishiness among insiders and even fans and people who are familiar with the situation.

Boss Wei still wants to be embarrassed. The key is that the results of "Qing Yu Nian 2" are very good. If you do this, it will easily make people think that the results are fake.

Originally "Qing Yu Nian 2" could have become a blockbuster hit in a fair and honest way, but in the end, it was "troubled" by others.

"It's superfluous."

Wei Yang was very unhappy. Last time LeTV did something like this. He turned a blind eye out of favor, but this time it went too far. To some extent, it was to discredit Blue Whale.

"Celebrating More Than Years" is Blue Whale's flagship project. It is not only a matter of investment cost, but more importantly, it is related to the company's status and development.

If Blue Whale is listed, this project can affect the market value of billions.

Even if it is not listed now, it is likely to completely establish Blue Whale as the key to industry dominance in the Shanghai film and television industry and even the small screen field.

That's why he called Boss Jia personally. He didn't care how LeTV handled the accounts, but he couldn't sacrifice his own interests.

Boss Wei's current net worth and business status may not be as good as those of Boss Jia, but he is not a young man that Boss Jia could recruit at will.

Boss Jia couldn't ignore him expressing his dissatisfaction alone, not to mention that there was Hunan Satellite TV inside.

Although the data was falsified, this matter had little to do with Hunan Province and Taiwan. LeTV and Blue Whale suffered the most from the incident, but it did involve the "Celebrating More Than Years" series after all.

Hunan Province and Taiwan, which have high expectations for it, do not care whether LeTV and Blue Whale are harmed, but when it comes to protecting the interests of the "Qing Yu Nian" project, everyone has the same attitude.

Therefore, Hunan TV station and Wei Yang followed up to put pressure on LeTV, forcing the other party to act more restrained, and the data of all parties became relatively normal.

...

"This Wei Yang is too timid. It's not like he doesn't understand the truth behind it. How can he pretend to be positive at this time?"

Beijing, a private club, LeTV couple and the creators of "Longmen Escort" had a dinner together

During the dinner, Wei Yang somehow got involved. When the unpleasantness of the previous two days was brought up, Mrs. Gan from LeTV stood up for Boss Jia.

"You can't say that. Xiao Wei also has his own considerations."

Boss Jia next to him made up for it, but given his character, in this situation, facing his wife's complaints, just replying like this actually represented his displeasure.

Facing this little brother Wei Yang, Boss Jia's heart is complicated.

At the beginning, he could be said to be the first big boss to appreciate Wei Yang. He repeatedly sent out solicitations, but was declined by Wei Yang. However, the cooperation between the two parties was still very pleasant, and the personal relationship was not bad.

At least as far as the several video websites Wei Yang cooperates with, he has the best relationship with Wei Yang, followed by Sohu and Zhang Hu, and the others are basically doing business.

What also made him a little confused and dissatisfied was that Wei Yang was always reluctant to get too close to him.

Of course, he later thought about it, and it was probably related to his background.

From then on, we were not just partners, but only as partners, but Boss Jia did not expect that Wei Yang would refute his face.

This makes Boss Jia, who has always boasted of being a bole in Wei Yang, and has a smooth career in the entertainment industry, and is praised wherever he goes, is not very happy.At his level, he wouldn't look for trouble out of anger, but it's okay to show his attitude.

"Wei Yang... how should I put it, is a bit aloof and arrogant, maybe because he is a scholar and young."

The person sitting next to me was Big Dog, the boss of Galloping Pony. The drama "Dragon Gate Escort" was produced by LeTV and Galloping Pony with investment from Ning Caishen.

The private club for today's party belongs to Brother Big Dog. He was the one who organized the party and was able to call Lao Jia and his wife here.

Big Dog Brother and Wei Yang are also acquainted. Blue Whale participated in the production of Ning Hao's "Heart Blossoms", which is a Galloping Pony project.

The two parties have dealt with each other, but their relationship is average. Big Dog Brother's impression of Wei Yang is not bad, but not much good either.

Big Dog Brother was born in the military. He has a low-key and bold personality, and is very quaint. Therefore, in the circle, he is not called Mr. Li or Boss Li. People who are familiar with him call him Dog Brother or Big Dog Brother.

He has the character of a big brother in the world. He is always cheered by a group of people wherever he goes. He is also very close to Beijing circles, so he pays more attention to qualifications and status.

Wei Yang is an upstart in the entertainment industry, and he started out in the Magic City. His qualifications are of no use to him, and he himself doesn't like the quackery style.

The auras of the two people are naturally not harmonious. Brother Big Dog secretly feels that Wei Yang is young and energetic and does not know how to behave.

In fact, his perception is correct or not. Wei Yang started his career by sucking up to the coal boss. If he doesn't catch a cold, he doesn't catch a cold. How could he not deal with such a big brother-style person?

The key point is that he praises the other coal boss, and the other coal boss pays for it. It is useless to praise the big dog brother.

Galloping Pony is an out-and-out film and television company, not an entity like Enlight that involves media, variety shows, and distribution. It can cooperate and complement Blue Whale.

To a certain extent, Blue Whale and Galloping Pony are in a competitive relationship, and they are not a regional faction. In fact, the latter has been surpassed by Wei Yang in the past two years, so why should Wei Yang support him.

age?

Whether you are in the entertainment industry or in the business world, what you are fighting for is status, wealth, and background. When do you care about aging?

Wei Yang has high emotional intelligence, but he is not addicted to being a younger brother.

Even for the coal bosses, their status has actually been reversed at this stage. Except for a few big benefactors, most of them are begging Wei Yang to make money.

Galloping Pony is just an ordinary cooperative company for Wei Yang, but the big dog brother is pretending to be a big brother in the world, so Wei Yang is certainly not a bird.

This can be said to be "young and energetic", but is it still a young person if he is not energetic?

Since Wei Yang was reborn, he has made money in various ways. In the early stage, he did not hesitate to be humble and small, and developed the company in his hands just to not pretend to be a grandson.

Including Boss Jia, he felt that after Wei Yang became rich, he became arrogant and arrogant, turning his back on others.

It's not accurate to say that, it's not that Wei Yang has gone crazy, he himself is not a good person, he used to pretend, he had to pretend to be a grandson.

Now that he has enough confidence, he will naturally not be able to bend down anymore. If you treat him with the same vision and attitude as before, he will naturally change.

Boss Jia and Big Dog Brother, one has old eyes and the other is showing off his seniority, and they look at the problem a bit one-sidedly, but Kong Ergou, the assistant next to Big Dog Brother, speaks the truth.

"I started from scratch, and at such a young age, I have a net worth of billions. If I were Wei Yang, I would be much crazier than him."

Ning Caishen, who is also a screenwriter and producer, also said tactfully: "Screenwriters have confidence in their own works and may not want to be affected by some off-site factors, which is understandable."

Written by Kong Ergou
Ning Caishen is a popular big-name screenwriter in the industry. His "Dragon Guard" has performed well, and the three parties are preparing to deepen their cooperation.

The words of these two people still had weight. Boss Jia and Brother Big Dog looked at each other and did not talk any more about this topic.

Not to mention that there is no one to support him, but if this word reaches Wei Yang’s ears, it will be troublesome...

Although the two of them were very pretentious, Boss Wei was not a fool.

Fortunately, my hometown is a big one, and the galloping pony may not be Wei Yang's opponent.

Even the reason why Brother Big Dog has a bad impression of Wei Yang is actually partly related to the fact that Ning Hao, the head director of Galloping Horse, is too close to Wei Yang.

He was afraid that Wei Yang would poach him...

The topic changed and the rest of the dinner party breathed a sigh of relief, especially the stars of "Dragon Gate Escort".

Let's put it this way, most of this group of people are from Shanghai Theater and Shanghai Drama Center. They hang out in the Shanghai circle or have connections. I really guarantee that no one is allowed to secretly sell Wei Yang.

It doesn't matter how the big bosses fight to kill them, they are afraid that they will be implicated in the crowd.

Just imagine, when someone hears someone scolding him or her in a bar, it’s hard not to think that the people in the same bar might also scold him, or even get angry.

Maybe Wei Yang is not such an unreasonable person, but they can't afford to gamble. If the big shot gets angry, they, the little guy, are likely to have their families destroyed.

So everyone hopes that the dinner will be harmonious and peaceful. If you really want to scold us, go ahead and scold us in private, so as not to hurt us.

Boss Jia and Big Dog Brother are both human beings. They can see something fishy, ​​and they are a little surprised and surprised.

I didn’t expect Wei Yang to have such a status and intimidating power in the entertainment industry. It seems that they really underestimate this young man who made his fortune from scratch...

　Something happened at home. Updates have been a bit messy these days. I'll try my best to make it up.
