More than ten days later," My Own Swordsman " officially wrapped up.
Mango TV had taken the lead during this period of time. The viewership ratings for "My Own Martial Arts Legend" had already risen to 63%, completely boosting Su Ye's reputation.
With just one work, Ian had entered the national television drama director hall of fame.
On the other hand.
Central TV had also started broadcasting Martial Arts Legend.
On the first day of the premiere, it had already achieved a 68% viewership rating. It was a perfect comeback, achieving the achievement of the 'replay' viewership rating surpassing the premiere…
"Hey, why is Central TV broadcasting half a month late? Was this considered the first round of broadcast or a replay?”
"Who cares? We're both watching it anyway!”
"It's so comfortable. Previously, when Mango TV was broadcasting, we didn't watch the parts very carefully, as well as the episodes that we missed. This time, Central TV has made up for it.”
" I brought the kids to watch Mango TV at six o'clock, and the adults watched Central TV at eight o'clock. I left the dishes to my six-year-old son to wash, haha…"
"Perfect. We don't have to watch the news broadcast at 7 o'clock. We can watch Mango TV first.”
Central TV and Mango TV's off-peak performance had not only achieved the expected results, but it had also unexpectedly garnered unanimous praise from the audience.
After all.
Everyone watched the news broadcast at 7 o'clock sharp every day. They didn't particularly like it.
Now that he had Mango TV's My Own Swordsman to choose from, it was needless to say that the TV series would definitely be better.
On the other hand.
The TV series broadcasted by the TV station did not have the options of fast-forward, pause, and rewinding that people in the future had long been used to.
Therefore, he had no choice.
There were some exciting scenes that would pass before you could even react.
If you want to relive it, you have to look at it again.
And Central TV's 'replay' that was half a month late gave people a chance to reminisce.
This was the difference between a sitcom and a regular TV series…
In a regular TV series, after watching the plot, you wouldn't watch it a second time in a short period of time because you already knew.
As for comedy?
On the contrary.
It was precisely because he had already seen it that he knew exactly where the funny parts would be and which parts he would never get tired of. Instead, because he knew the plot, he looked forward to rewatching it even more.
So...
Even though Central TV was about half a month late, the viewership ratings had surpassed Mango TV. The premiere episode had already taken 68% of the viewership ratings!
When the results came out.
Central TV's Chief Hu and Director Zhang also heaved a sigh of relief. The 16 million yuan was well spent!
However…
Some people were happy, while others were worried.
When the popularity of " My Own Swordsman " was reflected in every corner of people's lives, the members of Big Boss Wang's small circle in Beijing naturally knew about this long ago.
Pa, pa, pa!
Big Boss Wang's face hurt from the slap.
Previously, Su Ye had sold the exclusive rights to the first episode for 50,000 yuan, but they had deliberately pulled some tricks to get Central TV's purchasing director to lower the price to 5000 yuan per episode.
And the result?
They had sold 300,000 episodes!
A total of 24 million!
It was completely self-defeating.
Back then, if Ian had sold My Own Swordsman for 50,000 yuan, perhaps My Own Swordsman would not have become as popular as it was now…
What was even more infuriating was…
Big Boss Wang's status was established by works like " Desire " in the 1990s, but... both of them were blockbuster TV series. Why was Ian able to earn 24 million yuan while I, the father, not only did not make any money from " Desire ", but also lost more than 500 thousand yuan?
There was no justice!
Big Boss Wang felt extremely aggrieved.
In this world.
She was not afraid of how she was doing, but she was afraid of comparing herself with others.
To be honest, although Big Boss Wang was also successful and famous now, his small circle was even a typical representative of the Beijing circle. His status in the Beijing entertainment industry was also very light.
But…
In terms of the money earned, Big Boss Wang's later film adaptation fees were mostly in the range of 3 - 5 million yuan. Together, his net worth was about tens of millions.
However, that was the sum of more than ten years later. If they were talking about 1997 alone, Big Boss Wang might not be as rich as Ian now!
Of course.
Big Boss Wang's current status and influence in the industry were still not something Ian could compare to.
In terms of money alone, Li Chengru had 13 million USD in 1991, but could Li Chengru's fame at that time be compared to Big Boss Wang's?
"What should we do? He's gaining too much momentum now, and he's even hooked up with Central TV's Chief Hu. There's very little room for us to do anything…"
The person who spoke was a familiar face. It was Chen Xishan, the former director of Central TV's film purchasing department.
Speaking of Chief Hu, Chen Xishan's face twitched a few times, and his expression was extremely gloomy.
Last week, Chen Xishan was removed from his position as the director of the film purchase department and transferred to an unpopular department as the director.
Although the rank was still the same, everyone knew that Chen Xishan, the former confidant of Chief Hu, was finished. There was no possibility of him making a name for himself in the future…
How could Chen Xishan not hate him?
The purchasing director was the most popular person in the television station. How many people had to fawn over him?
Not long ago.
As the director of Central TV's film purchasing department, he was also someone on the same level as Big Boss Wang!
And now?
He could only hope that Big Boss Wang could think of a way to get some food for him.
Otherwise, if an unpopular department without any power were to rely on Central TV's meager salary, wouldn't people starve to death?
Big Boss Wang rubbed his face fiercely and said somewhat dejectedly,"I've really underestimated Ian. He sold a drama for 24 million yuan. How can this be f * cking reasonable?”
He couldn't accept it!
"Are we just going to watch him succeed?”
Vice Dean Qin, who was standing at the side, also had a sullen expression on his face.
Damn it.
So I was beaten up by Ian for nothing?
"That can't be helped."
Big Boss Wang said with a gloomy face," The entertainment industry is the most realistic. Ian has just made his debut with a drama and has even hooked up with Central TV. What we say won't work as well as before.”
"If you want someone to trip him up now, he won't be happy. If you provoked a future great director who was in the Hall of Fame for no reason, who would help you if you didn't give him enough benefits?”
Two months ago, Ian was just a nobody. With just a word from Big Boss Wang, there would be people like Central TV's director of film purchases. The higher-ups in the film and television industry would conveniently do a favor to make things difficult for Ian.
But now…
He had soared to the top and was the most popular director at the moment. Which idiot would help you harm someone just because of a little friendship?
In the entertainment industry, the people who stepped on the low and supported the high were the best!
"But we can't just let it go like this…"
Vice Dean Qin muttered unwillingly.
Huang Xiaoyan wasn't around at the moment. She had gone to film " Great Qing 2," a co-production between Mango TV and Taijima Pleasant Entertainment.
"Let's not talk about him first."
Big Boss Wang took a deep breath. He also felt that it was troublesome. Moreover, he did not have a direct conflict with Ian, so he did not want to continue fighting with Ian for the sake of his subordinates.
"Pants, tell me about our plans for this year. I've already written the script for 'Party A and Party B.' Tell me how to shoot it.”
Big Boss Wang was still clear-headed." The Spring Festival is such a big blank period. It's a gold mine!”
