Chapter 0127 At first, people thought…!!

“Such a novel TV series, is it actually a zombie theme? I like zombies the most! ”

“I’ll definitely watch it, it’s interesting.”

“Oh my God, these zombies are too realistic! It’s hard to imagine that this is actually played by a person! ”

“The whole city has become a zombie city? Interesting, the director of this TV series has a lot of ideas! ”

After watching the trailer for The Walking Dead, it was clear that viewers were interested.

The reviews given were also basically all positive…

“Zombie TV series?”

At this time, Mike, who is a professional TV and movie reporter, naturally noticed this unusual TV series.

Due to his profession, this time of year is his busiest.

A large number of new and old dramas need him to watch and comment and recommend to the audience.

The information of such a new drama, the popularity can actually rise so fast, it is difficult for Mike not to notice.

Mike suddenly remembered something.

“It seems that the zombie theme was created by that guy from Lin Shi, right?”

When he thought of Lin, he gritted his teeth.

Even for this TV series, I hate the house a little and get up.

Damn it!

What can’t you shoot, do you have to shoot zombie movies in the forest?

However, in professional quality, there is also curiosity about the first zombie TV series.

He still casually clicked on the trailer.

At the beginning of the trailer, it was pitch black at first.

Then, the screen lights up instantly.

Without warning, densely packed zombies suddenly rushed towards the camera from a distance!

They come in different shapes, some lack arms and legs, and some have long rotted flesh.

But they all have one thing in common:

All of them did not have any expressions, their demeanors were wooden, and there was only bloodthirsty light in their eyes.

Hundreds of zombies rushed towards Mike in front of the screen, making him slam and the whole person was excited.

“So exciting?”

Mack’s eyes lit up immediately.

In many zombie movies, the zombies in them are carved out of a mold.

One by one, with white beautiful eyes, tilted heads, bleeding from their mouths, walking lame.

I don’t know, I thought it was produced by the same assembly line.

And this “The Walking Dead”, although it is a TV series, is more rigorous than those movies.

Just by glancing at it, he found that the zombies just now had different forms, and they all obviously had their own characteristics.

It is clear that the director used his heart.

“Good, good.”

Mike nodded, his senses changed slightly, and continued to look.

The zombies rushed forward frantically, but just as they were about to touch the camera, the screen went black again.

Then, the screen began to flashback one by one:

In the hospital, there was no one, and all kinds of medical equipment were scattered all over the place;

On the walls, there is the inscription ‘There are living dead inside’ written in 717 huge bright red letters;

In the gap in the iron door, a miserable white hand stretched out and molded everywhere; In the square, countless corpses covered with white cloth were lined up neatly; On the street, empty, silent, as if an empty city, a few people stumbling, looking down, ragged people are wandering aimlessly on the street…

Mike’s eyes slowly became solemn.

What a strong sense of picture!

He seemed to be really in a zombie-infested city, and boundless depression and gloom came to his face.

Who is the director of this show?

His sense of picture and atmosphere is very powerful!

“Roar!”

At this moment, a zombie’s hideous and rotten face suddenly appeared in front of the screen.

“My mother!”

Mike was caught off guard and was suddenly startled again.

At this time, the screen is suddenly black again.

This is the end of the trailer.

Without saying a word, Mike quickly opened the other information of “The Walking Dead”.

Soon, he found the director’s signature: Lin.

“Lin? Who’s this? I haven’t heard of it! ”

Mike froze.

He searched for the name on the Internet and found that there was no such director before.

The only work is this “The Walking Dead” to be broadcast.

He felt incredible for a moment.

A TV series of this quality turned out to be made by a newcomer TV series director? That’s awesome!

Mike looked at the time the show was playing again.

Starting on September 20, it will be broadcast every Tuesday at 8:30 p.m.

The number of episodes to be aired is TBD.

The TV station that broadcasts is FX.

“Planned to play so early?”

Mike frowned.

The competition at this point in mid-September is too fierce.

A full four or five old IPs have been restarted.

These established IPs are extremely popular, and some have even been broadcast into the seventh or even eighth season.

In this period when the herd of males chasing deer and immortals fighting, no matter how awesome the walking dead are, it is impossible to come out!

Mike felt a little sorry for it.

But of course, this drama may not be as good as he imagined. It is likely that it is only a strong trailer, but the main drama is very stretched.

This is not uncommon.

There are several directors on the beautiful side of the country, and it is a mess that the trailer is wonderfully shot.

The audience was hilarious one by one when watching the trailer, but they were all stupid when they watched the main drama.

He specially put all the highlight scenes in the entire TV series in the trailer!

The co-authors had already finished their meal.

All that comes next is!

A typical representative of these directors is Barlow, the director of Shelter Pictures.

This guy started making TV series.

Later, I couldn’t get mixed up here in the TV series, so I began to rely on touching porcelain movies to make bad money.

“I hope you don’t go high and low.”

But anyway, Mike is still a little bullish on the newcomer named ‘Lih’.

In this season of TV series full of big guides.

His courage as a rookie director dares to squeeze into the most golden and deadliest period, which is already very commendable.

And the next development was similar to what Mike expected.

Although the popularity of “The Walking Dead” began to skyrocket.

But with the finalization of various old IPs, its popularity soon dropped.

Everyone’s attention was attracted by those old IPs.

“The Walking Dead” also started in the top three of the major websites, and in the end could only barely hover around seven or eight.

“The seventh season of “Gossip Coffee” is coming, and it airs every Saturday at nine o’clock night!”

“The fourth season of the high-rated TV series “Edge of Crisis” is here, which will be broadcast every Wednesday at 8:30 pm!”

“The third season of Emmy Award winner ‘Detective’ is here, and it will be broadcast every Sunday night on ABC!”

During this period of time, one TV series after another has been frantically warmed up and promoted.

Nothing is happier than the audience.

Carnival season is finally here!

Mike, for his part, has prepared a schedule for all the recently released TV series on Monday, “Doctor’s Mission.”

Tuesday, The Walking Dead.

Wednesday, Edge of Crisis! The Office.

……

Saturday, “Gossip”, “Family Games”.

Sunday, “Detective”.

Almost every day, there are sequels to old dramas as well as new dramas broadcasting.

It is worth mentioning that the day “The Walking Dead” was broadcast, there were no other big-budget TV series broadcast simultaneously.

This surprised Mike a little.

It seems that FX should have had a relevant plan for a long time.

That’s just right.

If “The Walking Dead” airs at the same time as the rest of the big productions, then he is likely to choose to abandon “The Walking Dead”.

For now, he wouldn’t mind contributing a little rating to The Walking Dead…

At this time, the audience is already looking forward to the arrival of the first wave of dramas.

And what surprised them even more.

On September 10, a popular TV series “The Legend of the Crown” suddenly announced that it was scheduled in advance.

It will be broadcast every Sunday evening!

This time, the audience can be happy.

“The Legend of the Crown” has been extremely violent since its broadcast, and it has now reached its fifth season.

At the same time, it has won two Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe Award for the TV series, and the ratings once exceeded 5%.

This is an undisputed phenomenal TV series.

But the audience is happy, others are not necessarily happy.

The TV station that was due to broadcast “Detective” on Sunday was dumbfounded.

“Detective” also performs well, but it is worse than “The Legend of the Crown”.

Now that “The Legend of the Crown” is airborne on Sunday, it is bound to have a great impact on the ratings of “Detective”.

So what to do? We also shift gears!

As a result, the police detective “Detective”, which has already played an episode, immediately announced the adjustment of the file

In order not to have too much impact on the audience’s watching, they moved the schedule to Saturday.

The audiences of these two dramas are naturally happy.

But this time, the two dramas “Gossip Coffee” and “Family Game”, which were supposed to be broadcast on Saturday, are gone.

Our competition is already fierce enough, and you still have a kick?

No, we also adjust gears!

So, they set their sights on “The Walking Dead”, the weakest of several dramas.

We can’t beat “The Legend of the Crown” and “Detective”, but bullying you, a newcomer, is it more than enough, right?

As a result, “Gossip Coffee” and “Family Game” were both tuned and came to the broadcast on Tuesday night.

Here to add that the reason why these two TV series go together everywhere is because the directors of these two dramas have a feud.

One of them is Bob and the other is Brno.

The two of them were once jealous because of a Hollywood actress, and even fought in public.

It’s just that the two of them didn’t succeed, and the actress turned around and followed a movie director.

In the end, they didn’t soak it, but the feud was forged fiercely.

So for several years in a row, each drama of these two people basically tried to touch each other.

Even if it will have a big impact on their own drama ratings, they will not tire of it.

The two tacitly and resolutely adhere to the principle that even if I have a bad time, you don’t think about it.

This is also a strange story in the beautiful country, and almost everyone knows it.

But with this wave of rotation, many viewers who originally wanted to watch “The Walking Dead” were a little worried.

Many of these people are fans of “Gossip Coffee” and “Family Games”.

Now that “The Walking Dead” is released at the same time as these two, which one should they watch?

“These bastards!”

Times Corporation, Li Pu’s anger is thunderous.

The walking dead obviously didn’t do anything, but he was shot while lying down!

Originally, if the show was released on Tuesday alone, he estimated that it could hit at least 3% of the ratings.

But now with the addition of these two dramas, the ending is not necessarily the ending! At this moment, FX TV has also sent a letter, hoping that the times can consider the issue of file adjustment.

As things stand, it’s hard for The Walking Dead to survive in this big production drama.

If the schedule can be adjusted back two to three months, wait for the competition to weaken.

Then this drama is likely to do much better.

Unlike ordinary TV series, The Walking Dead’s source of funding is that Times and Stars co-funded, and then cooperated with TV stations.

It is not funded by traditional TV stations.

Therefore, FX station could not change the broadcast time on its own without the consent of the times, and after Li Pu hung up the phone, he hesitated for a moment.

Then, tentatively calling Lin Shi: “Or… Let’s adjust the gear, right? Now the competition is too fierce, I’m afraid it’s not good for the walking dead! ”

But the answer on the other end of the phone did not surprise Li Pu: “Shift? What’s there to tune? Just do it and you’re done! Notify FX and resolutely do not adjust the gear. Whoever collides with us, we will do it! ”

“…… Okay. ”

Li Pu reluctantly hung up the phone.

He knew that Lin Shi would not agree.

In the signed contract, Lin Shi occupies the absolute right to speak, and no one can influence his will.

Therefore, when most people think that the walking dead will temporarily avoid the edge and choose to postpone.

Until September 19th, it was already about to be released, and The Walking Dead still didn’t have any news to adjust!

Many viewers froze.

Isn’t it, are all the new directors so brave now?

Don’t you know that the two dramas released on the same day as you are both ratings breaking 3?

Many sighed: “It’s over, the walking dead is going to be crushed into scum.” ”

“Oh, this director named Lin is too iron-headed, right? These are two old IPs, just look straight and collide? ”

“Unfortunately, I was going to watch The Walking Dead. But I can’t give up my “Gossip Master”! Watch the replay the next day if you have time. ”

“Me too. “Family Games” has been chasing for several seasons, and it is impossible to abandon it because of a new show. ”

“What? The zombie film called “The Walking Dead” has not yet been adjusted, and at this moment, Bob, the director of “Gossip Coffee”, looked stunned. ”

FX station crazy, right?

Knowing my Bob’s prestige, I actually dare to rise to the challenge? And that newcomer named Lin, you kid is not small! You really don’t know what a blockbuster IP is!

But just surprised, Bob didn’t go to his heart.

At this moment, he and Brno have begun the classic air trash talk session.

The two scolded each other on their respective social platforms, and the audience was also happy to watch.

Of course, they didn’t mention The Walking Dead at all.

In other words, the opponents in the eyes of the two are only each other.

They didn’t take the walking dead as their competitors at all…

Finally, September 20th came.

At eight-thirty p.m., Mike watched the three TV series that were going to premiere tonight. “Gossip”, “Family Game”, “The Walking Dead”.

Like the rest of the audience, he never expected that “The Walking Dead” did not avoid the meaning of these two veteran IPs.

“Then I can only say sorry to you.”

Mike turned on the TV at home, adjusted to AMC, and waited for the broadcast of “Gossip Coffee”.

As a professional TV reporter, Bob and Brno’s old grudge, he must rub a wave of heat.

Moreover, compared to “The Walking Dead”, he himself is more interested in “Gossip Coffee”, which left a lot of suspense in the previous season.

Mike can expect that there will be many like-minded audiences.

“Why are you doing this?”

Mike sighed.

However, he appreciated the director named Lin even more.

In front of these two dramas, you actually dare to intervene?

The guts are really not small.

Of course, the final result can only become a victim of the battle between “Gossip Coffee” and “Family Game”.

And until this time, people were like Mike, thinking that “The Walking Dead” was basically finished.

It’s not that it’s not excellent.

It’s that the IP brought by Bob and Brno is too fierce.

A newcomer, if he wants to survive with them, the probability is simply low to the extreme river.

But no one could have imagined.

With the start of today’s broadcast.

“The Walking Dead” will gradually transform from an unknown new drama into a global super top IP…
