(The first one is sent!!)
There was no need to mention the Legend of Azure Cloud!
Using Lin Yu's propaganda, this was an epic masterpiece!
Although the people who were used in the filming were all newcomers, the special effects alone were enough to support the viewership ratings. It was too easy to recover the cost. As long as the viewership ratings went up, the advertising alone would be able to recover the cost.
Therefore, when the trailer for " Legend of Azure Cloud " was released, Umbrella Entertainment's door was broken and all the major satellite channels came to buy the broadcasting rights.
Lin Yu had only sold one first broadcast right, and he only planned to sell one broadcast right.
In the end, it was bought by Mango TV. After it was broadcasted on Mango TV, the next day," Legend of Qingyun " would be released on Aiyi Video.
It wasn't that they couldn't sell it, but they would sell it round by round. When it was released on Aiyi Video, the attraction would be too small.
If other satellite channels wanted to buy it, they would only be able to broadcast it in the second round. Moreover, it had already been broadcast on the Internet. It was basically impossible for them to obtain viewership ratings again.
Therefore, they could only give up.
However, it was also because of this that only Mango TV had the rights to broadcast the first round of the show. That was why they were offering such a price.
After all, Legend of Azure Cloud was made up of newbies, so it basically sold special effects.
If there were one or two popular young hunks or female celebrities, it would not be a problem to double the price!
October 13th, Friday!
In the midst of everyone's anticipation, the so-called epic production," Legend of Qingyun," finally made its debut on Mango TV.
The premiere was at the Golden Theater at 8 pm!
The first episode had a nationwide viewership rating of 1.25 and a viewership share of 5.76.
1.25 According to the viewership ratings of 1.5 billion people in the country, although it was impossible for everyone to watch it, just a rough calculation showed that 1.25 percent meant that there were 18,000,000 television channels watching the Legend of Qingyun.
5.76 The viewership rating of Jade Dynasty was 5.76% of all the users who turned on their televisions.
There were no big-name celebrities, and there wasn't even much publicity. Just a few days after the trailer for " Legend of Qingyun " was released, the viewership ratings broke 1.25 on Mango TV.
If this continued, the viewership ratings of " Legend of Azure Cloud " would definitely skyrocket. One had to know that the average viewership rating of " Fast Version " was only around 2.2, with an average viewership share of 6.5.
" Legend of Azure Cloud " had the potential to become a phenomenal drama.
Unfortunately…
The original novel," Legend of Qingyun ", was still being written, and the author was the screenwriter. The director was filming while the television station was broadcasting.
It could be said that only Umbrella Entertainment dared to film a TV series like Legend of Azure Cloud.
However, they dared to do so. They were not afraid of losing money at all. They did not have to worry about finding a place to broadcast Legend of Qingyun. Their boss was Lin Yu! There was plenty of money!
Actually, the production cost of Legend of Azure Cloud was very low.
First of all, the rights to the TV series adaptation of " Legend of the Azure Cloud " were bought by the Umbrella Corporation. Nine Cauldrons completed the creation and the copyright was all bought by the Umbrella Corporation. However, half of the money would be given to Nine Cauldrons, which was about two million yuan. It was considered free.
Nine Cauldrons didn't have any complaints. He didn't even accept the change fee for the script this time.
He knew that what he wrote was a custom-made novel. It could be said that all the copyrights were in the hands of the company. He only got half of the profits because his big boss, Lin Yu, was generous. If he was greedy, it would not be good.
Therefore, the copyright of Legend of Azure Cloud was worth 2 million yuan. All the actors were new, so their pay was not high. Basically, 10,000 yuan per episode was already a sky-high price. They could earn 500,000 yuan from just one Jade Dynasty movie.
One had to know that all the main characters of " Legend of Azure Cloud " were newcomers!
The price of 10,000 yuan for an episode was definitely considered relatively high. Including the other props and extras, all the expenses of 5 million yuan could be settled!
As for what everyone thought was the most expensive and burning thing, which made many entertainment companies complain that Lin Yu was a complete waste of money, the special effects production was completely free of charge. It was completely completed by the Red Queen using the special effects production software.
It could be said that when Legend of Qingyun was sold to Mango TV, it had already earned 240 million yuan.
This was not even including the fees earned from broadcasting it on the Aiyi Video Network.
Aiyi Video Network adopted two charging models;
The single-episode payment model and the entire TV series purchase model.
There would definitely be a discount for the purchase of the entire TV series, and for the purchase of individual episodes, one could choose to skip episodes to watch.
However, many people chose to buy the entire TV series because of the discount. After deducting the first 5-10 episodes for free and 1 yuan for each episode after that, he could earn about 40 yuan per episode.
And Ai Yi had close to 100 million users, so it could earn at least tens of millions!
If Lin Yu followed the routine and bought the satellite channel's first broadcast rights and rotation rights before going online at Ai Yi, it was possible for him to earn 500 to 600 million.
Moreover, Lin Yu was only broadcasting it on his own video website. He hadn't even sold the copyright to TT yet. He had to be late by at least ten days. Otherwise, how could Ai Yi increase its users?
As for whether or not they would buy the video, he didn't know.
……
The popularity of Legend of Azure Cloud was within everyone's expectations.
After Mango TV completed the premiere, the next day," Legend of Qingyun " was released on Aiyi Video. It broke the 100 million mark on the first day!
It was the age of the Internet and mobile. Many young people had never turned on their televisions at home. They preferred to watch TV dramas online or on their phones.
"Legend of Azure Cloud" was a hit!
However, Celestial Bane's current viewership was tentatively set at one episode a week. When the production team was ready, it could be increased to two episodes a week.
This time," Legend of Azure Cloud " was using newcomers. Whether it was acting skills or the running-in period for filming, they needed time. Moreover, to ensure the filming progress, they needed to save an episode for emergencies.
In response, Director Cui, who was in charge of directing the TV series at Mango TV, went to Umbrella Entertainment several times and even went to Lin Yu.
In response, Lin Yu could only explain that the production team was still working on it, and after some time, they should be able to provide two episodes a week. Moreover, they still had to do special effects.
Umbrella Entertainment and Mango Satellite TV explained.
Even Lin Yu explained on Weibo.
However, the internet basically said that it was not enough.
"It's not enough to watch at all. Watching 'Legend of Azure Cloud' is as exciting as watching a movie. I feel great from head to toe!"
"I always thought that after watching the anime of Legend of Azure Cloud, I didn't need to watch TV dramas at all. Because the TV series was filmed by real people, it definitely couldn't reach the level of an anime. However, after watching the TV series, I realized that I was wrong! I'm guilty!"
"I noticed a problem…'Legend of Azure Cloud' was filmed and played once, the book was still being written, and the author was still adapting the script…but…the f * cking special effects were done so quickly?”
"When I heard what the person above said, I immediately felt terrified. How powerful is this Umbrella Workshop? Even the best CG special effects company in the world couldn't complete the special effects production of Celestial Bane in a week.”
