"Are you Director Ye?"
Jordan had just hung up when the phone rang again.
"That's right. I'm Jordan. And you are?”
"Hello, I'm Deputy Station Head Li from Bingo TV Station. I would like to represent Bingo TV Station in purchasing the exclusive broadcasting rights of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy! 100 million! We are willing to pay 100 million!”
Originally.
It was impossible for Deputy Station Head Liu to offer such a high price.
However…
He received Zhang Yimou's phone number.
"100 million?"
Ye Chen smiled.
It seemed like…
They still hadn't seen the potential of the immortal sword!
Or rather…
He didn't believe in domestic TV series, nor did he believe in Xianxia TV series that had never appeared before!
Since that was the case.
Then he would wait.
Ye Chen was not in a hurry.
On this day.
He received many calls.
The highest price was offered by the Fruit TV Station.
Of course, there were also people who bought the broadcasting rights, but they were not exclusive.
For example, Shanghai TV.
50,000 yuan per episode, which was 1.85 million yuan.
However…
According to this price, selling all 34 satellite channels in the country would cost about 60 million yuan.
In addition to the online copyright, it was more than 100 million yuan.
....
"Hmm? What was that? What did you say? Say that again?"
The next day, Beijing Television Station's Deputy Station Head Li had just sobered up when he received a terrifying piece of news.
"Yes, Boss Li. That's right. The average viewership rating of the Legend of Sword and Fairy on the first day was 1.17%!”
This time.
Deputy Station Head Li could no longer sit still.
One had to know.
There were only so many audiences for the show.
It was impossible for everyone to have time to sit in front of the television.
For every additional viewer of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, it meant that there might be one less viewer of Winter Sonata.
At night.
Deputy Station Head Li rushed backstage again.
This time.
Everyone looked nervous.
There was no excitement and joy from before.
"It's out! The fourth episode's viewership rating was 3.47%!”
" 3.53% for the fifth episode!"
" 3.63% for the sixth episode!"
Hu ~
Many people heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's alright."
"The viewership ratings are still increasing!"
However…
Deputy Station Head Li felt that something was wrong.
Too slow!
This rise was too slow!
"What's the viewership rating for the Legend of the Sword and Fairy?"
Deputy Station Head Liu hurriedly asked.
"This will have to wait for the domestic television alliance to announce it tomorrow, or Gaoyuan Satellite TV will announce it on their official Weibo.”
the staff member said helplessly.
At this moment.
They couldn't wait for Gaoyuan TV to announce it.
Gaoyuan TV.
Backstage.
"Director Xu, are you really not going to announce it?"
"Don't announce it! He would not announce it even if he was beaten to death! If it was announced, the other television stations would definitely go crazy again!”
Director Xu said gloomily.
He had no choice.
What they bought was a one-time broadcast rights.
It could only be played once.
If other television stations bought the copyright.
What if it was broadcast at the same time as them?
If they broadcast a few more episodes every day, they would catch up in less than a day or two!
"But Director Xu, this can't be hidden at all. Even if we don't announce it, the National Television League will still announce the viewership ratings of the various television stations the next day!”
"Besides, what did you say about what Director Ye asked?”
"As long as we can drag it out!"
Director Shaw also gave up.
....
"This Director Xu."
Ye Chen was so angry that he laughed.
The next day.
The Chinese television alliance announced the results of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy.
The fourth episode had a viewership rating of 3.12%!
The fifth episode, 3.31!
The sixth episode, 3.47!
The results were out.
Everyone was shocked.
"F * ck! How is this possible?"
“3.47%？”
"Yesterday's third episode's viewership rating was still at 1.34%, right?”
"I'll report it! The Legend of Sword and Fairy's viewership ratings are fake!"
"Fake? What a joke, how could the viewership ratings be faked? The domestic television alliance had the backing of the government and had the meaning of supervision. If the Gaoyuan TV Station could fake their own statistics, how could the domestic television alliance fake it?”
At the same time.
Countless news reports followed suit.
The viewership ratings of the domestic Xianxia drama, The Legend of Sword and Fairy, caught up with Winter Love Songs!》
"This year's biggest dark horse!"
"The spring of the domestic TV series is coming!》
....
Immediately after.
Ye Chen, Big Mimi, Hu Ge, Liu Shishi…
The names of the director's team and actors were also popular all over the country.
....
"It's not strange, it's not strange at all. After the viewership ratings for the first day of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy show were released yesterday, the reputation of the show has continued to ferment. More people know about this show, so this viewership rating is not strange at all.”
Zhang Yimou appeared very calm.
At this moment.
More and more directors and industry insiders in the country noticed Ye Chen's name.
"Is this really just a new director?”
"I feel that he might be the apprentice of an S-list director.”
"Yes, it's very possible."
In comparison.
Those television stations were completely dumbfounded.
"3.47% viewership rating?"
"It's already catching up to Winter Sonata?”
"In other words, it might surpass Winter Sonata?”
"No, I can't! It wasn't just possible, it would definitely surpass Winter Sonata!”
"Look at Winter Sonata's growth stats, then look at the growth stats of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy!”
This was crazy.
He had gone completely crazy.
Deep Blue TV Station.
Yingguo TV Station.
Shanghai Television Station.
....
In China.
All the television stations called Jordan.
Oh, right.
One of them didn't get hit.
That was Beijing Television.
" What the f * ck!!!"
Deputy Station Head Li was on the verge of tears.
Originally.
They had spent 130 million to buy the exclusive rights to Winter Sonata in the country, all for the sake of getting first place in the viewership ratings.
But now it seemed like…
Well, it was just a thought.
