Chapter 162: Stop arguing, I’m going to start cutting!
"President Qin, you swore to us that Xu Kong's new drama was nothing to be afraid of."
"I need an explanation. This incident has caused huge losses to us in Huayuan!"
Looking at the representatives of Mango and Huayuan Film and Television participating in the video conference on the video computer screen, Qin Xian couldn't help but want to scold her at this moment.
Huge losses? Huge fart!
The rating of "Mysterious Valley" has been stable at around 8 points, so there is definitely no problem with its reputation.
Huayuan's copyright had been sold to them a long time ago, and they were making a lot of money.
What was lost?
For Mango, the copyright fee is not that high, and the cost is definitely recovered with the early advertising revenue.
After all, the ratings have never dropped below 1.
So now that "Mystic Valley" has been completely overwhelmed by "Legend of Sword and Fairy" in terms of popularity, who is really losing?
Not to mention the huge royalties spent, the current income from paid memberships is far lower than expected for Kiwi!
But at this moment, Qin Xian still needs to accompany him with a smile.
Whether it is Huayuan Film and Television or Mango TV, they are not afraid of the size of their kiwi fruit.
And the most important thing is that it was indeed him who proposed to air the show on the same day as Xu Kong's "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
"You two, I don't think you have to worry about it for now."
"From the current point of view, it seems that most of the plot of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is not bought by the audience."
"I mean, we just need to wait until the reputation of the other side collapses, and the popularity of "Mystic Valley" will definitely overtake it."
Although these words do carry great expectations.
Similar cases have not happened in the past.
But when Qin Xian said this, he still lacked confidence.
Because the current viewing volume of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has exceeded 2.5 billion, and it has only been broadcast for less than half a month.
"Mystic Valley" has gradually declined, reaching over 1 billion. There is already a huge gap between the two dramas in terms of popularity.
It's simply not something that can be solved by word of mouth.
Even if Fairy Sword starts high and then goes low, and ends badly, the first hit drama of the year will definitely be stable.
But at this time, apart from these only words of hope, there seemed to be nothing else to say.
"I hope so."
The person in charge of Huayuan sighed and said lightly.
The people over at Mango didn't make things too difficult for Qin Xian.
Although it was indeed Qin Xian's decision, whose name was Kiwi Flower had the highest copyright fee.
And it seems that they are also the ones suffering the biggest losses.
Yi Guo finally finished the first video about "Legend of Sword and Fairy" after much stumbling.
Although the show has been airing for more than half a month now, the plot is halfway through.
To say that it is too late to grab the popularity of the premiere.
However, Fairy Sword is currently very popular. Compared with when it first aired, the popularity at this time has not dropped at all, but is even higher.
"Interpretation of Immortal Sword, what is Xu Kong's so-called fairy drama!"
After choosing a cover for the video and taking the title, Yiguo clicked send directly.
Currently, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is indeed the best traffic password for all film and television self-media on the entire network.
Although this show has had some controversies before, its popularity is indeed frighteningly high.
Some character mash-ups of one or two minutes can even get millions of views.
But what many people have been looking forward to is still the interpretation of Yi Guo, a blogger with more than 50 million fans on the Internet.
"The popularity of this fairy sword is really too high."
Even Yiguo was a little shocked. Less than half an hour after her latest video was released, it had more than 700,000 views.
Even though the average number of views for each of her videos on station B is almost five to six million, and there are many tens of millions, the speed of growth this time really shocked her.
But Yiguo obviously didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
In just one day, Yiguo's 20-minute review video of Sword and Sword became extremely popular on all major platforms.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the quality of Yigo Yiguo's copywriting.
After all, this may add up to more than 8,000 words of copywriting, and it took her half a month to finish it.
During this period, in addition to following the updated episodes of Fairy Sword, I often went back to watch previously updated episodes.
"Is Xu Kong's Fairy Sword a good drama?"
"The result is beyond doubt."
"The first thing I want to say is the soundtrack that I personally think is the most outstanding. Some pure music such as "Legend of Sword", "Peach Blossom Island", "Don't Lose, Never Forget" and so on are all at a master level."< br>
"Besides that, it's the creation of characters. Later I suddenly realized that this drama turned out to be a group drama. Even the supporting roles were portrayed very wonderfully by Xu Kong, Jiu Jianxian, Liu Jinyuan, even as the villains The leader of the Moon Worshipers."
"As for the shortcomings, everyone must know that they are still about the handling of the protagonist's emotional line in the love triangle."
"Although Lin Yueru's character transformation and growth line are also very clear later, due to preconceptions, this character is still often criticized by everyone."
"Finally, back to my title question, is Xu Kong's drama what he calls a fairy?"
"I have no answer to this question."
"But what is certain is that compared with some ancient puppet shows in the past, Fairy Sword is definitely different."
"The plot, texture, and shooting methods are all completely different from traditional ancient puppet plays."
"Even the criticized emotional line is different."
"You can recall that in those ancient puppet shows that were popular in the past, the male and female protagonists always had one side and the other. It was a setting of heart-to-heart love. Just for the male and female protagonists to fall in love, dozens of episodes would have to be filmed."
"In Fairy Sword, even if it is a love triangle, the biggest feeling is that all the characters are people with their own emotions and desires from the moment they appear. This is why many viewers become so immersed in this drama."
< br>
Yiguo's video clearly has a high evaluation of Xu Kong's new drama.
It can even be said that it was just a blow.
Of course, these are Yigo's true thoughts.
And it has also been recognized by many viewers.
But the only thing she didn't expect was that she would be stabbed in the back.
The person who stabbed her in the back was not someone else, but "Legend of Sword and Fairy" itself, which was being updated.
Because on the day her video was released, the latest plot of Fairy Sword was revealed.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru are together.
And Yi Guo also knew that in the previous plot settings, Li Xiaoyao had lost his memory of being on Fairy Island due to the Forgetfulness Gu.
He himself didn't know that he had actually paid homage to Zhao Ling'er when he was on Xianlin Island.
The unfolding of this plot was something that Yiguo had never expected before.
Her first thought was that it was over.
It is estimated that this wave of rhythm will be difficult to stop.
Sure enough, the Internet was already in a commotion at this time.
"It is unacceptable. Such a plot direction makes it difficult to understand Xu Kong's state of mind when writing the script."
"Zhao Ling'er can be abandoned. I really can't stand it anymore, so I have no choice but to abandon the show."
"It's understandable that Li Xiaoyao has lost his memory, but as for Lin Yueru, I really hate this character from the beginning until now!"
Those who come up to scold him directly, without thinking about it, must be from Zhao Ling'er's party.
And there were a lot of people.
Zhao Ling'er is the protagonist after all, and judging from her appearance and camera, she is destined to attract countless fans.
Of course, some people are opposed to it.
"Why can't it be Lin Yueru? There's no such thing as first come first served when it comes to relationships. I think it's pretty good."
"After going through so much, the evil girl is no longer the evil girl before. It is normal for the two of them to like each other." "Lin Yueru's growth line is very clear. Although the initial impression was very poor, after all, it has been changing. If I were Protagonist, I can’t refuse such a confession.”
Yes, Zhao Ling'er's party and Lin Yueru's party have started to quarrel.
At present, it seems that it is even getting worse.
However, the audience on Zhao Lin'er's party had an absolute advantage in terms of number.
Even the actor Shang Yuxin suffered from Wuwu's disaster. Some viewers became too involved and began to rise to the level of the actor himself.
Yi Guo was implicated.
Because the video of her praising the TV series Fairy Sword is currently the most popular on Station B, and can also be seen on Weibo’s hot searches.
"I really am."
Yiguo always felt that he was suffering something that he couldn't express.
If I had known earlier, I would have waited until the show was finished before posting the video.
How did she know that the protagonist group, who had been quite romantic and affectionate for ten years, had made a ten-year appointment, but the plot developed so quickly in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Linger was brought back to Shushan, and Lin Yueru was directly with the protagonist Li Xiaoyao.
The script written by Xu Kong is really too inappropriate.
Although it is clear that in order to promote the plot, such emergencies are definitely necessary.
But now, she is even less clear about how the final plot will develop.
I don’t know how to pop the champagne at halftime. In the end, Xu Kong’s drama started at a high level and then ended at a bad end, right?
The most painful thing is not Shang Yuxin, the actor who plays Lin Yueru, nor is it Yiguo who suffered an unreasonable disaster.
It was Qin Xian, the vice president of Kiwi at this time.
Because there was a lot of noise on the Internet, but at the same time, the data of Fairy Sword once again experienced a surge.
There were many viewers who criticized Xu Kong, the director and editor, or scolded the actors.
But the show itself didn't seem to be affected at all.
The heat is getting higher and higher.
Whether it is the data of the show itself or the popularity of the show, it has completely exploded.
You can see it on all major platforms, almost everywhere, about this "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
Even Tudou Video, a new drama that was originally scheduled to be broadcast in the next two days at the end of the month, was immediately withdrawn.
Some dramas produced by small companies also choose a wave of emergency escape.
The only one that is most seriously injured now is "Mysterious Valley" on their Kiwi platform.
Even the number of views in a single day, which was originally quite stable, suddenly dropped a lot this day.
What is more intuitive is that the number of daily active users on the Kiwi platform has dropped by nearly 20% compared to the beginning of the month.
That’s tens of millions of active users!
Qin Xian's heart was bleeding.
He really regretted it.
I didn't pay attention to Xu Kong's first drama, and gave Penguin Video a pie in the sky.
And later, because Xu Kong was not taken seriously, the copyright of Fairy Sword was lost.
Although at these times, Qin Xian also had regrets.
But given his character, since it was a thing of the past, he still didn't care too much.
At this moment, he really felt that he should not have chosen to let "Mysterious Valley" be broadcast on the same day as Xu Kong's "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
At the Fengge headquarters in Beijing, Shang Yuxin did not film during this period and stayed in the company almost all the time.
Of course, when they are not actually filming, even the actors under Fengge will choose to rest at home.
Shang Yuxin was the same in the past.
As for now, the reason why she comes to the company every day is naturally because Xu Kong spends most of his time in his personal studio.
"Why are you here again?"
Xu Kong was not surprised when he saw Shang Yuxin, but was used to it.
I have to say, he always finds it somewhat amusing.
He himself runs towards Zhu Yu's office every day, while Shang Green Tea takes the initiative to go to his studio every day.
"Director Xu, what you said is that you don't welcome me?"
Shang Yuxin naturally walked to the sofa in Xu Kong's office and sat down.
"Besides, I am very obedient. Every time I come here, it is always when Youyou is not around."
Hearing this, Xu Kong inevitably had a headache.
He always felt that due to some mistake, his misunderstanding with Shang Yuxin was getting deeper and deeper.
Originally, he just couldn't bear the disturbance and thought it would be best to persuade the other party to retreat.
Otherwise, although Shang Yuxin's rank is nothing to him, it would still be quite troublesome to deal with it every day.
It really worked in the beginning.
But now, Shang Yuxin seems to have experienced what happened before. Not only is she confident, there is even a hint of expectation on her expression?
Just like now, when Shang Yuxin entered, she naturally locked the door of Xu Kong's office.
He is not honest on the sofa and shows off his posture.
It was completely different from before when Xu Kong would carefully open the door to his office every time he came here.
"Director Xu, won't you comfort me?"
"You know how badly I have been scolded by viewers online recently."
"Strictly speaking, I suffered a work-related injury, and you, the director, are responsible."
Xu Kong rolled his eyes at Shang Yuxin, who was pretending to be pitiful, and told him to understand for himself.
It's not like the other party hasn't read the complete script. Xu Kong doesn't believe that Shang Yuxin himself didn't expect the current situation.
And he also knows that judging from the current broadcast speed.
It won't be long before these curses involving Shang Yuxin will naturally disappear.
"Director Xu, you are really boring."
Seeing that her method didn't work, Shang Yuxin was a little disappointed.
However, he still talked about the business of his visit this time.
"Director Xu, after Fairy Sword is finished, will there really be good scripts coming to me?"
After knowing that Xu Kong's new drama may not necessarily have a suitable role for him, Shang Yuxin also looked away.
She has been resting for such a long time and has not taken on any new dramas until now. In fact, she is just waiting for the popularity brought by the airing of Fairy Sword.
"It won't take that long. I guess it will be available in about a week."
Xu Kong said calmly.
He is quite confident in this aspect.
The facts proved that Xu Kong's guess was correct.
Soon, the time came to the beginning of July, and the plot of Fairy Sword was aired to the end of the last few episodes.
The entire drama has been airing for nearly a month, and finally the plot that Xu Kong has been waiting for has arrived.
Perhaps it was a bad taste, but Xu Kong felt that he had to pay back the hurt he suffered at the beginning.
Although Xu Kong didn't want to pay too much attention to the quarrel between the two characters Zhao Ling'er and Lin Yueru on the Internet, he could see it every time he surfed the Internet, and he was inevitably a little upset.
Now, Xu Kong very said, "Stop arguing, I'm going to start firing."
