Chapter 522: Five consecutive ratings wins, new movie "Wushuang"

In September, the finale of "Nirvana in Fire" aired. The tragic ending of the unicorn genius Lin Shu made countless young girls cry.

Wei Yang's bad taste in liking BE was criticized again!
In the dramas he has filmed in recent years, the proportion of happy endings is really not high. "Celebrating More Than Years" originally made many viewers happy, but the next drama ended up with a "old-fashioned sprout".

And strictly speaking, "Operation Mekong" also has an open ending. The film does not clearly explain whether the male protagonist Fang Xinwu is dead or not.

In the eyes of some people, Wei Yang had one movie and one TV series in the summer, but the whole show ended up being "dead".

But Boss Wei absolutely does not agree with this.

In "Nirvana in Fire", if you want to criticize him for his "original script", that's all. But this is obviously an original work. If the original work is dead, he can never resurrect it.

There is also "Operation Mekong". Although there is no clear explanation, all signs imply that the male protagonist is not dead. If you force someone to die, you will understand that there is nothing he can do.

Besides, even if Fang Xinwu dies, he is not the first screenwriter, so you can’t blame him for this.

However, regardless of whether Boss Wei has a bad taste or not, the results of "Nirvana in Fire" are brilliant.

But based on this calculation, there are too many people who meet the requirements, and the three and four consecutive championships are worthless.

This is not surprising!
"Nirvana in Fire" stars Wei Yang and Liu Shishi, two of the most popular actors in the television industry. There has been a lot of hype before and after the broadcast. After the broadcast, the reputation has been very strong and the momentum is very hot. It is definitely a phenomenon-level work.

But no matter what is said in the future, "Nirvana in Fire"'s current ratings are very likely to become the annual ratings champion this year.

"Nirvana in Fire" is already considered a top drama series, but it only reached this rating. His next film "White Night" is a pure online drama and will not be broadcast on stars.

There is a fundamental difference between a starring role and a supporting role or even a supporting role!
Just like some actors who are lucky enough to have played small supporting roles or supporting roles in two or three hit movies, they dare to claim that the box office has exceeded tens of billions. This is purely self-pleasure, and neither the public nor the industry will recognize it.

Even Wei Yang has mixed feelings. He became famous and even became a god from the era of ratings.

And Liu Shishi is exactly the number one heroine in these dramas. The "Celebrating More Than Years" series is the third series, followed by Wei Yang and Chen Baoguo, and the "Nirvana in Fire" series is the second series. Even if Wang Kai has more roles, he is still ranked. behind her.

Two years before its release, you can compete with "Celebrating More Than Years".

After all, she also participated in the "Celebrating More Than Years" trilogy and "Nirvana in Fire", winning four consecutive titles.

Therefore, if you want to hold up this honor, you must at least be a male and female protagonist or an important supporting role, so as not to be criticized.

Prior to this, Wei Yang had won four consecutive annual ratings championships from 2011 to 2014 with the series "East Palace" and "Celebrating More Than Years". Together with this year's "Nirvana in Fire", it was an unprecedented five consecutive championships.

Now that the era has come to an end, he, the king of ratings, cannot conceal his decline, and it is inevitable that he will feel sentimental.

Wei Lao Si became Wei Lao Wu!

The highest ratings in a single day exceeded 6, and the market share was no less than 20%. On the declining TV platform, this is groundbreaking.

But such a blockbuster hit was brought together at the right time and place, but in the end it didn't even sell 3.5 copies. How could it not make the industry despair?

The average ratings were 3.39, ranking first in the year!

Many people had previously claimed that breaking 3 was a "ratings miracle", but not only did it not stop, but it intensified.

When his next new drama is aired on a TV station, the TV platform may be even more in decline. By then, it may be difficult to even break 3.

It's not a sure thing that it will break 4, but it's still very promising. Maybe we can even touch the butt of "My Love from the Star" which has a rating of 5.

In fact, there has been talk of three consecutive championships before. After all, there are many people who have starred in the "Celebrating More Than Years" trilogy consecutively, and there are even four consecutive championships, such as Dili Rouba, who starred in "East Palace" and "East Palace". "Celebrating More Than Years" trilogy.

Wei Yang's legendary aura has reached a higher level, and even Liu Shishi has also benefited from it.

Therefore, apart from Wei Yang, Liu Shishi is the most qualified to claim four consecutive championships, plus the masterpiece "Step by Step" broadcast in 2011.

The authoritative publication "Popular Television" commented on this -

[If we talk about the small screen market in the past five years, Wei Yang is the only one among the male stars, and among the female stars who are competing for beauty, Liu Shishi is the most popular beauty...]

Zhao Liying is popular among the people, Liu Tianxian has countless fans, Da Mimi's exposure is amazing, and even big and small flowers from all walks of life have their own advantages and highlights.

In the face of hard results on paper on the small screen, Liu Shishi is the well-deserved and undisputed number one.

In addition to several consecutive championships in annual ratings, this year's "Nirvana in Fire" also has another honor.

That means there is a high chance of winning the annual championship of Hualuo.com’s Internet Popularity (Film and Television).

As mentioned earlier, Hualuo.com, as a third party, makes lists based on the data of major video websites and related platforms and media popularity, including movies and variety shows.

The most popular one every day is the daily crown, there is a weekly crown every week, a monthly crown every month, and naturally there is the most important annual crown.

Since Hualuo.com’s popularity statistics were launched in the middle of last year, last year’s data is not very accurate.

For example, the annual champion in 2014 was "Flower Thousand Bones", but in fact "Qing Yu Nian 3" was more popular, but unfortunately the statistics were not started at that time, so it was a pity that it was not selected.

But this year is a full-year selection, and the content is much more objective and complete than last year.

At the same time, after more than a year of being online, Hualuo.com has gradually been recognized by the industry and the public with its intuitive and accurate statistical data, and has become a list and reference material recognized by more and more industries and related media.

This has also led to Hualuo.com’s popularity index statistics and list rankings becoming more and more influential. Last year’s title could be said to be for self-entertainment, but this year it has received a lot of attention.

In two years' time, with the decline of the TV platform, maybe Hualuo.com's annual popularity championship will become one of the most important honors in the film and television industry.

There is no doubt that the number of views has exceeded 100 billion, and the popularity peak has exceeded 18000, breaking the record of Hualuo.com, with more than consecutive daily crowns, four weekly crowns, and monthly crowns, and is still continuing to dominate the "Nirvana in Fire" list. , will be the biggest favorite for this year’s film and television awards.

If this year's crown is roughly regarded as the highest honor in network broadcast performance, then "Langya Bang" has once again become the double crown of the TV network in history!
Behind the glory of "Nirvana in Fire" is the new rise of PPTV.

Youku and iQiyi’s console plans are completely bankrupt!
Although "Young Marshal" has a good reputation and strong stamina, it cannot form an effective block in terms of performance.

Although "Hua Xu Yin" has retained certain achievements and can even be said to be a hit drama with good statistics, its reputation collapsed, and it later became embroiled in scandals. The crew members were all busy, and the TV series itself became a supporting role.

The only good thing is that although Youku was overtaken by PPTV in the summer season, it has stabilized its position with this drama and its original background.

The gap between the two sides is extremely small, and the second half of the year is bound to be another long-term tug of war.

However, for PPYV, competing with Youku is a trivial matter at this time. Taking advantage of the enthusiasm of the summer season, striking financing while the iron is hot is the top priority.

The success of the summer strategy has brought PPTV’s valuation to a new peak. The current price offered by many institutions, comprehensive statistics are expected to be more than 240 billion yuan.

This data has almost reached its peak. Even if there is still some room, it won't be too much. After all, Youku's current market value is about the same.

PPTV can be valued at this price, largely due to its strong momentum in the past two years, which makes people feel that it has a broad prospect, and Boss Wei's commitment to listing the company within three years.

If it goes public in the short term, PPTV will not be short of money, so this is likely to be the only financing, and the price will naturally not be cheap.

Coupled with the so-called horse bones that are worth a thousand dollars, many institutions are optimistic about investing in Wei Yang, a young business tycoon, and are willing to invest heavily in him.

The combination of various factors has pushed PPTV to this point.

But the capital market also has to pay attention to objective logic. Even if they don't, Wei Yang doesn't want PPTV to become a tool of capital, so he would rather raise less money than go over the line and keep the amount within a normal range.

But even so, the valuation of 240 billion+ has increased eight times compared to the 30 billion valuation when Wei Yang took over.

More importantly, after the financing, Wei Yang, who retains about 40% of the shares, is not only still the largest shareholder of PPTV + absolute voting control, but his shares will also be worth nearly billion.

At present, the financing is still in the final negotiation stage, and there is still a lot of follow-up work. If everything goes well, it should be completed before the end of the year.

In other words, PPTV will have enough ammunition next year to continue competing with Youku and iYiqi.

Boss Wei instructed senior executives to keep the second position even if they cannot win the first place...

Compared with the success of the TV series "Nirvana in Fire" and behind it, "Operation Mekong" seems not worth mentioning.

In fact, this is not the case. "Operation Mekong" has not been completely finished yet, but the box office has basically reached its peak, and the total box office is expected to be between 15.2 and 15.6 billion.

Although this box office data is not comparable to "Detective Chinatown" and "Monster Hunt", it is not even ranked in the top three of the year, lagging behind "Fast and Furious 7".

But this is because this year’s box office has exploded. In fact, "Operation Mekong" is ranked third in the domestic film box office list and has excellent results.

The most important thing is not the box office, but that this is a main theme movie.

As mentioned before, compared with real money and money, the soft welfare behind this type of movie is the key.

With the rise of the domestic film market and the strengthening of national strength, the abovementioned emphasis has been on improving national self-esteem and cultural confidence. Therefore, at this time, the rise of domestic films and the promotion of the main theme is the general trend.

And coincidentally, both of them were caught up by Wei Yang!

"Detective Chinatown" has won the championship in film history, and it has even begun to be exported overseas. It has been screened in large numbers across Asia. Although the box office is not high, it has some influence.

"Operation Mekong" even set a record for the highest box office for a commercial film with a main theme, and it can be said to be a benchmark.

In the two movies one after another, Wei Yang stole the show. Not only did he become a star at the box office, he was also "Jane in the Emperor's Heart" and was particularly valued by relevant departments.

Before Wei Yang joined the cast, he made a special trip to the capital. He stayed for two days, held meetings, received awards, and also received approval for a military drama and a police drama. The scale was not small.

However, the most important thing is that Boss Wei won the support of the inspection department and was able to launch the "In the Name of the People" project that he had always wanted to do.

He has no intention of tampering with this drama. Except for the deleted scene with yellow hair, many characters will not be changed if they can.

It's okay to say that those veteran drama stars have obvious acting skills. It would be a pity to replace them. There are also some supporting female characters. Even if they don't perform well, they still have to overcome it. There is a way to do it.

The same is true for Gao Xiaoqin and Hu Jing. Although she is not protected by Cao Tianwang in a third-rate online novel, in reality she is a serious Malaysian Dato's wife.

Although this Malaysian Datuk is not as valuable as widely rumored, it is just an honorary status title.

But it is indeed issued by the official government of Malaysia. It involves foreign affairs, but it can fool people more than the ordinary people in the country.

In addition, Boss Wei also plans to invite the giant Buddha statue of the pastor of "Let the Bullets Fly" this time.

With these three people in charge, if we shoot in another province, even if there are prototype characters, our hands will not be able to reach that long.

The main key now is whether Wei Yang himself will act in this drama.

The person in charge of the crew and relevant units hope that Wei Yang will play the role. After all, he represents ratings and performance.

But Wei Yang felt that the drama "In the Name of the People" was not easy to act in.

In particular, the male protagonist Hou Liangping is difficult to perform well. The villain Qi Tongwei is a good role, but his age is not suitable.

Even Hou Liangping and Wei Yang's age are not suitable. When filming starts next year, he is not yet 30. In the play, Hou Liangping is set to be over 40 years old. If Wei Yang plays the role, he will have to act older, which is different from several of the characters in the play. The characters don’t really match up either.

Of course, Wei Yang has a relatively mature temperament. It is not difficult for him to play a middle-aged man. Other roles can also be changed accordingly. This is why many people support him.

But Wei Yang was not that interested in this drama, so he ignored it for the time being and planned to wait until he finished filming his new movie.

Guangdong Province, Shenzhen City

Wei Yang came to the set to report. As soon as he put down his luggage, he heard the doorbell ringing. When he opened it, a familiar figure rushed in.

"Slow down, there are cameras in the corridor."

Wei Yang held Tang Yan's waist, closed the door, and responded to the intense kiss before asking with interest.

"Didn't he say that he would join the group in two days due to an event?"

"Surprise for you!"

Tang Yan said with a smile that this was half of her truth, and the other half of her truth was that she came here early this time to make a surprise attack on the post.

No way, this time Wei Yang's new movie "Wushuang" has two important female roles. Among them, Wu Xiuqing, the second female lead who plays the male lead's assistant and mistress, is her, and Fan Xiaopang plays the male lead Bai Yueguang and Ruan Wen.

Therefore, Tang Yan received Liu Shishi's instructions to closely monitor and prevent Wei Yang from getting too close to Fan Xiaopang.

Well done in this matter, she finally passed the test of the organization, atoned for her sins, and returned to the embrace of the Three Beauties of the Immortal Sword...
