Meanwhile, Mango TV's Station Head and the director of film purchases took a plane early the next morning to rush to Beijing.
On the other side.
The third and fourth episodes of My Own Swordsman were also broadcast at 8 PM sharp that night.
With the preparations and preparations from the day before, more people chose to watch "My Own Swordsman" on TV with their whole families. Naturally, the viewership ratings rose without any suspense.
At noon the next day, with the staff working overtime, the results of the viewership ratings were out.
59%！
As expected, Wulin My Own Swordsman had only been online for two days and had only aired four episodes. Yet, the viewership ratings had already exceeded 50%, and it had dominated the screen…
At the same time, the viewership ratings for "Magic Phone" had dropped to a pitiful 3.2%.
Fortunately, it was a sci-fi theme, and there were more or less some diehard sci-fi fans who insisted on watching it. Otherwise, it was entirely possible that it would drop out of the viewership ratings rankings.
If it was lower than 1%, it would not be shown on the rankings.
The audience's feedback on " My Own Swordsman " was also unanimously positive.
" It's so interesting. Two hours passed before I knew it. Sigh, if only I could release four episodes a day…"
"That won't do! It'll be 12 o'clock by the time the four episodes finish broadcasting. I still have to go to work the next day. I think two episodes a day is pretty good. I can watch it for 40 days!”
"I support you."
"Watching this drama can only be described as easy.”
"It's too suitable for a family to watch together.”
"In the past, the two children at home would always quarrel over which channel to watch at eight o'clock. They liked different TV dramas. Now, for the first time, the two children didn't quarrel. I don't have to worry so much…"
"Haha, so is my family. I have two kids at home. In the past, they would play dumb to see which channel they could play. Now, the two of them are sitting there discussing the plot. I'm not used to it.”
"I can't even get enough of it after watching it once…"
"That's right, that's right! I feel like I can watch this drama ten times!”
The next day, when people began to pour out of their homes and into schools, factories, and work units, the lively scene of people gathering together to discuss " My Own Swordsman " was once again played out.
Moreover, the heated discussion was even greater.
Many people who missed the first episode felt even more regretful. They felt bad that they did not see the first two episodes…
Under such circumstances.
In the afternoon, Mango TV's station head brought Director Liu to the Beijing Film Studio and found Ian.
After some small talk.
Ian now had an 8 million yuan check in his hands. At the same time, he also gave the copies of episodes 21-60 to Mango TV.
These were all official matters.
Following that, Mango TV's Station Head probed,""Director Su, has Central TV been looking for you these past few days?”
Ian wasn't surprised. It would be strange if Mango TV didn't ask.
It was not a secret that Chief Hu wanted to do a good job at this year's Central TV King Auction. Since " Martial Arts Legend " had appeared out of nowhere at this time, Chief Hu definitely had to think of a way to salvage the situation…
"Yeah, Central TV came by last night."
Su Ye nodded and said directly," I sold the broadcasting rights to Central TV for 200,000 yuan per episode. Now, they enjoy the same broadcasting rights as Mango TV.”
This was a normal business practice, so there was nothing to hide.
200,000 per episode?
Mango TV's Station Head and Director Liu couldn't help but gasp.
16 million 8 million, wasn't that 24 million?
Oh my god!
A drama that only cost 200,000 yuan was sold for 24 million yuan. This was simply a legend. He had become a multimillionaire overnight!
The two of them looked at each other in shock.
A millionaire in 1997, although not as rich as a country, was still a huge sum of money.
In this era, the gap between the rich and the poor in the country had begun to widen.
At that time, the average salary of employees in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shen Zhen was 11,000 yuan a year, which meant that two to three thousand yuan a month was considered a high salary at that time.
However…
Rich people were really rich.
For example, the actor Li Chengru.
In " Actors, Please Take Your Places 2," he was famous for his venomous tongue, which was used to tear Guo Xiaosi apart.
This big shot had really been famous in the past.
He started his business in 1985. In 1990, he opened a high-end clothing store with an area of more than 1,000 square meters on Xidan Street in Beijing.
A suit cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, a tie cost more than 10,000 yuan, and even a pair of socks cost more than 100 dollars!
This was 90 years!
Even now, if he could buy a suit that cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan every day, he was definitely rich.
And Li Chengru had done it thirty years ago.
Li Chengru's clothing store could make a net profit of 600,000 to 700,000 yuan a day!!
One could imagine.
The rich people of that era were really rich.
Those who had no money were still earning less than 1,000 yuan a month…
The difference was just so great!
By 1991, Li Chengru had 13 million USD in his foreign exchange account!
In other words.
The truly rich people were already worth more than 100 million in 1991…
And was he famous?
Thirty years ago, he was not famous. He was just the owner of a high-end clothing store in Xidan, Beijing. With this, he only used two to three years to accumulate a net worth of 13 million USD!
Of course, a few years later, Li Chengru lost a lot of money in foreign exchange. This was another matter.
How many Li Chengru were there in the capital back then?
No one knew…
However, it was an indisputable fact that high-end suits that cost tens of thousands of yuan and various household appliances that cost thousands of yuan, such as air conditioner, refrigerator, TV series, VCD, mobile phone, etc., never had to worry about sales in the 1990s.
In that era, they only worried about the lack of goods and never worried about sales.
Therefore, Ian earned a net profit of 24 million yuan from this drama. Although he was rich, in Beijing in 1997, it was definitely not shocking. He could only be considered as an average rich person…
"Like this."
Mango TV's Station Head quickly regained his composure and said with a smile," Although Mango TV has no right to interfere with Director Su's deal with Central TV, can we ask Director Su to make an appointment with Central TV so that the three of us can sit down and have a chat?”
It was impossible to stop him.
However, everyone was here for a living. Sitting down and having a discussion to come up with a broadcast plan was the meaning of the question.
Otherwise…
Mango TV had two episodes a day, while Central TV had four episodes a day in order to catch up with the progress. That would be a mess…
"No problem."
Ian nodded.
Anyway, Ian had already received the money. No matter what decision Mango TV and Central TV made in the end, it would not affect Ian's profits. He was just a middleman.
In the afternoon, the three parties met at Central TV's conference room and discussed a broadcast plan…
