Chapter 925： Unfavorable first broadcast

Not only Yin Jun, but even Le Yiling who heard Yin Jun talking about it, thought he had encountered a fool.

Sister Le decided on the dinner table and sold the land to the fool.

Although I do n’t know why Chen Qizhang is crazy, it is definitely a good thing for Kirin Group to realize real estate that does n’t make much sense.

Then, after the contract was quickly completed, Le Yiling received the money from the Kirin Group, which is known as a reserve fund for the loyalty award, but Yin Jun understood that this was Le sister ’s unwillingness to go to the United States. Invested money.

Even though Xiangjiang is very good at making money, the currency value of Hong Kong dollar and US dollar is about 1: 5, which is equivalent to earning 5 times the amount of money, so that it can be used in the United States and the country. This is difficult in any case.

Le Yiling believes in Yin Jun's vision, but at present, she doesn't want Yin Jun to invest too much at once, which leads to a strain on the liquidity chain of Kirin Group.

Yin Jun would like to remind Sister Le that even if the 500 million yuan is not added, the liquidity of the Kirin Group is also more than 3 billion. This money is used to cope with difficulties and has never been used.

However, in the case of sister Le, the executive president of the Kirin Group, the Kirin Group is now under great pressure in the United States and Xiangjiang, especially in the United States.

If the company in the United States really can't sustain it, it is undoubtedly very important to use this money as a loan or as a capital for Dongshan's comeback.

In fact, the United States and China are not completely posting money. The "Hongfan District" and "ET", which were released for their help, have made some money. Although they are far away from the purchase price, they are good or bad. It ’s income too, right?

Moreover, the day after the completion of the business with Hang Lung Group, that is, yesterday, when the Disney TV channel was actually at 8 o'clock in the evening, a TV series called "Happy Hotel" was suddenly broadcast, which made Yin Jun scared. A jump.

The script of "Happy Hotel", Yin Jun was given to Tang Shuxuan in April. It is only July 3, and the Disney TV channel made the first episode broadcast?

What a speed! ?

When did the work efficiency of the American people become so high?

Yin Jun hurriedly called and asked in the past, only to know the curve inside.

Thinking of Tang Shuxuan, a president of a company, he actually resumed his old business, and he was responsible for shooting a sitcom. Yin Jun was a little bit angry and curious.

Originally Yin Jun was thinking about it. After the release of "Speed ​​of Life and Death" on the 17th, the hearts of the company staff in the United States could be settled.

Then three successive TV series and a variety show of "American Idol" will gradually win the championship of the ratings, and make them more stable for the second time.

But I did not expect that the six giants were reluctant to give Yin Jun the opportunity to slowly integrate and chose the bottom of the kettle, so that Tang Shuxuan could only make his own efforts to make TV dramas.

Yin Jun took note of this matter.

When the time comes, the teenagers will know how to "return" them.

At the same time, Yin Jun was still very curious about the situation and the shooting of "Happy Hotel" by Tang Shuxuan.

It is a pity that there is no such convenient means of transmission, and Yin Jun is even less likely to ask Tang Shuxuan to send the mother tape back to himself.

So the teenager can only ask about ratings and audience responses.

"Because it is a new TV series or a sitcom, there are not too many viewers. The first episode is 4.6 million people watching." Tang Shuxuan replied like this, "but when our investigators called to visit, there were more than 40% of viewers think this TV series is quite interesting and should look forward to the second episode. "

"What is the age distribution of the audience?" Yin Jun asked.

"45% are young people 12-18 years old, 25% are young people 18-24 years old, 15% are people over 25, and the remaining 15% are people under 12 and over 50 years old." Tang Shuxuan said .

She is so familiar with the data, one can imagine, in fact, Tang Shuxuan's heart is still under great pressure.

With Yin Jun's self-confidence in "Happy Hotel" and the original audience of Disney TV channels, this number is really not satisfactory.

"Do you want us to buy some newspaper comments or do something else?" Tang Shuxuan asked.

With Tang Shuxuan's pride, there was such a proposal, which is really surprising.

Yin Jun is not worried, "Don't be anxious, Sister Xuan, good wine is slowly tasted, or it will surprise us in a short time."

"Hope!"

Tang Shuxuan sighed and continued to talk to Yin Jun about the "Happy Hotel": "Situation comedy is also a lot in the United States and China. Buried, so we can only shoot one episode in three days, and now there are only about 10 episodes of inventory. Fortunately, the United States is a weekly broadcast, otherwise it is really too late. I plan to shoot the first 25 episodes, which is half a year, Then stop and do other planning. "

Weekly broadcast, is broadcast once a week, one episode.

The United States has been doing this since it had a TV series, and in general, a TV series only broadcasts for 3-5 months a year, and less than 6 months.

Then they will watch the influence and ratings of the entire TV series, if it is good, then continue to shoot the second season, if it is not good, it will be suspended.

Although this system is a bit cruel, it also encouraged the TV screenwriters and directors of the United States to come up with the best conditions, otherwise they would not be able to make money, and then they could only lose their jobs.

In fact, it is now more lenient than it is 30 years later.

Thirty years later, Hollywood's entertainment has reached its extreme, including the TV community.

Not to mention giving you one season to prove yourself, it ’s 4 episodes a month, sometimes not for you.

As long as the ratings continue to be lower than expected, and there is no growth, then the TV station will immediately cut off the TV series and get a new one.

This is a very tragic thing for the production company, and the loss is huge.

Nowadays, there is no complete separation of production and broadcasting. Some TV series are made by TV stations. Secondly, competition is not so fierce. In the future, entertainment of computers, networks, games, etc. does not grab TV viewers. Everyone has a lot. Room.

"Sister Xuan, you can train some deputies first, and after the season is finished, you can hand them over." Yin Jun said, "As for the talents of the screenwriter, as long as they let them go according to my style, they are not new, so that is it It should be no problem to write down according to the character's temperament and performance habits. However, it should be noted that they must not be written quarter by quarter, at least three or five seasons, so that they will be more coherent, not Sometimes it ’s confusing. "

"I understand." Tang Shuxuan smiled.

Regarding the production mode of TV dramas, Xiangjiang and the United States have their own pros and cons. At the time of Xiangjiang, Yin Jun had talked to her a lot.

In the 21st century, many people feel that Hong Kong, Mainland and Baodao operas are outdated. Only American and British dramas represent the trend of society and are the best to watch.

But many people have overlooked it. Both American and British dramas have a big flaw.

That is the continuity of the plot and the characters.

Because of the separation of production and broadcasting, many TV drama production companies write them season by season. They never have the habit of writing two or three seasons at a time, because this is a huge waste to them.

Why is it a waste?

What if it was cut in the first season?

So what's the use of writing the second season? Is n’t it a waste of cost and effort?

All right.

If the ratings of the first season are good, we can continue to broadcast next year, then we will write the script of the new season.

How to write this?

Only according to the development of the plot of the first season, according to the preferences of the audience, choose various characters to live or die.

In the third quarter, the practice of the second quarter was repeated.

...

What do you say about coherence in writing scripts and making TV series? In the most basic place, the plot is not worth scrutinizing!

Only those which are less affected?

It's very simple, it's those sitcoms that don't need a coherent plot and one episode is a story.

For example, the popular "Two and a Half Men", "Bankrupt Sisters", "The Big Bang Theory", and "Holmes".

Or "Grey Intern", "Dr. House", "Beach Rescue Team", "24 Hours" and so on, a few episodes of a short story, also the story of each story is not very connected.

So you will find that it is such a film that can be filmed in seven or eight seasons or more than ten seasons in American dramas.

There are very few plot categories.

There are more negative examples.

For example, Yin Jun has seen a stunning "Hero" in the first season. This is a story about people with special functions produced by NBC. The first season can be said to be very beautiful. The plot, characters, and compactness. It's all good to wait.

But the second season is all kinds of ignorance. Not only did Yin Jun not understand, but also to North American audiences, the third season not only did not improve, but collapsed even more ~ ​​www.novelhall.com ~ barely reached the first The four seasons are reimbursed.

"Game of Thrones" is actually not extra, because it has a very complete book as a reference, not a script written season by season.

Many character developments have been written in the book already. You can follow the steps or change it slightly, but the skeleton is always there, so you look coherent and comfortable.

However, "Game of Thrones" also has a shortcoming, that is, their cruelty to the characters.

After accepting the original "Six People"-the last season of "Friends", the six leading actors raised their salaries together, and finally received the high price of 1 million dollars per person for each episode. Hollywood actors have learned this. trick.

If the American drama that is starring is not popular or average, then it ’s okay, but if it ’s very popular and makes a lot of money, then I ’m sorry, if you want me to appear in the second and third season, you have to add money to me. This is the case throughout the season.

Later, "The Big Bang Theory" is a typical one, and the film pay is so high that it can be compared with movie stars.

But even more unsuccessful, the most "cruel" of these is naturally the hot "Game of Thrones".

what?

Do you want a salary increase? Otherwise, don't do it?

OK!

I will immediately write your character to death, anyway, there are so many characters, you get out!

So at least one-third of the characters hung up in "Game of Thrones" are all due to this pay problem.

Do you say they are cows or not?

Of course, there are very few tough games like "Game of Thrones". Basically, many American dramas are in the process of game, and they continue to struggle hard.

Speaking of this, don't you think that the TV series of Xiangjiang, the Mainland, and Treasure Island, at least they were filmed in one go, so it seems more sincere?
