Entertainment: I really want to make progress

Chapter 40: Broadcast on the stars, dance with the gods, and become popular in the industry!



What an unexpected bonus.

The leader of the photography team at the scene was a senior from Zhou Yutang Film Academy, and he was considered one of his own. The two of them chatted quite well, and even left each other's contact information, and planned to make a dinner date later.

At this moment.

Li Shuang came over to inform that the recording of the program would start soon.

This is an in-depth interview program.

The host controls the scene and asks some questions, and then the leading actors answer them.

The topics we talked about were basically interesting things while filming "Want to See You".

Follow the procedures that have been set long ago.

The female host Xie Nan has neat short hair, is tall, wears a professional suit, and has a dignified and elegant temperament.

Zhang Ruojun and Zhu Yilong were sitting upright, having memorized everything they said in advance, and their behavior was quite satisfactory.

The main output also depends on Zhou Yutang.

Facing Xie Nan's questions, he could not be said to be unrestrained, but he could also be said to be talking and laughing freely.

He even repeatedly turned against the guest and threw out a few funny jokes, which made the host Xie Nan giggle.

Li Shuang, who was watching below, was speechless.

Fortunately, she had specifically asked her best friend to take care of her before she came.

Now it seems that there is no need for it at all.

But Xie Nan is also really comfortable.

Some guests are not born to be effective in programs, and they need to bring topics when they appear on the program, which is a headache. Being a host is very tiring.

This week Yu Tang is not only handsome and heart-warming, but he also speaks very interestingly.

After editing, it will be broadcast, which will probably provide a lot of interesting highlights for the show.

Zeng Li sat on the edge and smiled quietly with her lips pursed.

Looking at Zhou Yutang, there seemed to be light in his eyes.

The effect of the program belongs to the effect of the program, and Xie Nan has not forgotten his own job: "Yu Tang, how did you create such a script?"

"Actually, this story has been written for a long time. At that time, I wanted to make it into a TV series. Later, I slowly revised and improved the content. The current version is the final version after more than ten revisions. Of course, it may still exist There are some shortcomings, but I personally think this is a high-quality drama. Maybe in a few years, or even more than ten years later, many people will still be able to watch this drama again and again."

Zhou Yutang acted very calmly. Xie Nan nodded slightly and continued to ask: "I have also watched "Want to Meet You", which is indeed very good. However, some netizens have reported that the plot progress in the first two episodes seems to be slower. Will it affect the early stage? Have you ever been worried about the ratings?"

"Actually, I considered modifying the content of the first two episodes and slightly speeding up the overall story pace. However, after discussing with Teacher Xue, I decided to slow down the pace and intersperse some small laughs into the gentle plot, because the whole story , there must be a complete foreshadowing of the specific background and emotions, so that the subsequent actions of the characters can be logical and the emotions can come naturally.”

Zhou Yutang showed a bright smile: "As for worries, of course there are some, but I am still young, and the teachers in school have always taught me to try more. Even if I fail this time, there will still be opportunities in the future. I believe the audience will give me best answer”

The camera captured Zhou Yutang's signature bright and dazzling murderous smile, and several female staff members at the scene had stars in their eyes.

There are not many popular dramas this year, but a drama of the quality of "Want to Meet You", not to mention being the best, can definitely be regarded as a landmark classic among domestic youth films.

After asking Zhou Yutang a few questions, Xie Nan aimed at Zeng Li again.

Compared to Zhou Yutang, who is still a newcomer, Zeng Li has been in the industry for many years. She was the class star of the Chinese Drama Fairy Class in 1996, and her role as Mei Sanniang in Liaozhai was a hot spot that could be hyped.

Zeng Li was also polite and generous in interviews, talking about her feelings and occasionally revealing some interesting things she encountered during filming, such as the little koi carp picked up by Zhou Yutang on the roadside.

"Huh? Was that little actor really picked up on the roadside?"

Xie Nan was a little surprised.

"Yes, that's what happened at the time."

Zhou Yutang took over the conversation and said: "It was originally confirmed that a young actor named Zhang Zifeng would play the role. Director Xue said that she was very spiritual. Unfortunately, the young actor had a sudden health condition and needed to be hospitalized. Then the filming plan of the crew also changed. We can’t delay and have to find another one temporarily.”

"After I finished filming that day, I went to a local noodle shop to eat noodles, and I saw this little guy standing there with a schoolbag on her back. I took a look at it and felt that her image was very suitable for playing the role of Huang Yuxuan when she was a child, so I recommended her to Director Xue, Director Xue was very satisfied after seeing it and immediately confirmed it, and her scenes were filmed in two or three days."

Zhou Yutang omitted many processes and added a bit of drama by the way.

For interviews, just brag and that's it.

Xie Nan nodded and said with emotion: "That's really amazing. An ordinary primary school student was noticed by the crew on the way home from school and suddenly became a small actor. Maybe her fate is because of you. The combination of blue eyes has changed.”

"Maybe."

Zhou Yutang chuckled and shifted the topic to Zhu Yilong: "Another interesting thing is that there is a villain in the play, played by Brother Long."

"Zhu Yilong?"

Zhou Yutang laughed and said to Yan Yan: "Yes, he is a few months older than me. I call him Brother Long. Brother Long is a very hard-working actor and his acting is really good. Maybe many viewers will feel uncomfortable after seeing his behavior in the play. It’s scary, but Brother Long is actually a very gentle and cute boy in private.”

Zhang Ruojun couldn't help but break the news: "I know this, Brother Long once raised ants on the set."

"Raising ants!?"

"Yes, Brother Long likes to watch the ants digging holes at night after work is over, and he even gives the ants names."

Zhang Ruojun couldn't help but show his iconic husky smile.

Hahaha!

Xie Nan was also amused and laughed heartily at the scene, while Zhu Yilong covered his blushing face and was too embarrassed to see others.

After the recording of the entire program ended, it was already past 7 o'clock in the evening. Zhou Yutang asked Sister Shuang to invite the host Xie Nan to have a meal with her.

Well, nothing else.

Mainly because I want to get to know this dignified and generous sister.

This sister is the head host of Enlight Media.

Such connections must be grasped.

……………………

Busy days always pass quickly.

Next, under the arrangement of Li Shuang, I took on several more interviews to do the final publicity work in order to cooperate with the star broadcast.

On February 8, "Want to See You" was finally aired on Hunan Satellite TV.

Time is a bit rushed.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. According to the news from Zhang Guoli, there will be several high-quality dramas to be released in the next few months.

The first is "Golden Wedding" starring Zhang Guoli himself, "Struggle" directed by Zhao Baogang, "New Shanghai Beach" by Huang Xiaoming, and "Another Dream" adapted from Qiong Yao's work.

If you choose any one with your eyes closed, they are all hit dramas with luxurious lineups and well-produced films.

Under this situation, if "Want to Meet You" doesn't want to bite these hard bones, it can only try to shorten the promotion date as much as possible and then get the first shot, so that it can carve out a bloody road.

Director Ouyang Yang was also very optimistic about this drama, so he defied all opinions and arranged it in the prime time slot. It was replaced by "The Ming Dynasty 1566" directed by Zhang Wei.

It is worth mentioning that director Zhang Da is also a well-known romantic talent in the industry.

She had a relationship with Zhang Ruojun's stepmother a few years ago. After the divorce, Aunt Liu remarried Zhang Zhen's father, and Director Zhang Da turned around and became the current boyfriend of the popular female star Xiao Song Jia.

Zhou Yutang was also a little stunned when he saw the news.

Not because of this intricate relationship.

But he thinks "Da Ming" is really a divine drama.

"My money! They took more than two million taels, and I divided one million. Do you still want me to thank them?!"

"The clothes of civil servants are embroidered with birds, and the clothes of military officers are embroidered with animals. Wearing this skin, which one of us is not dressed like an animal?"

"Water flows downward, and people's hearts always want to be high when they are high."

"Some things, if they are not put on the scale, they will not weigh four ounces, but if they are put on the scale, they will not weigh a thousand pounds."

"You have me in you, and you have me in you. This is where everything goes wrong in the world."

"I carry two capitals and thirteen provinces on my shoulders, and it is not your turn to say these words to the people of the world!"

Zhou Yutang is also chasing Daming, and he is very enjoyable to watch.

This historical drama was purchased by Director Ouyang Yang from CCTV for a large sum of money. The cast is quite luxurious.

Chen Baoguo's Jiajing Emperor, Huang Zhizhong's Hai Rui, Wang Qingxiang and Hu Zongxian, Ni Dahong's Yan Song, and Zhang Zhijian's Xiaoge Lao...

This group of veteran actors performing on the same stage is a complete visual enjoyment, and it is definitely the ceiling of domestic historical conspiracy dramas.

However, the first ratings of this historical drama were not ideal. The ratings for the prime-time premiere of Hunan TV were less than 0.5%, and the ratings share was only 2.07%, which surprised many people who had high expectations.

"The Ming Dynasty" sadly retired from the stage, and "Want to See You" took over.

Zhou Yutang felt a little excited, but also vaguely expected.

The broadcast on the star is about to begin, and everyone is in different moods.

Zhang Ruojun was both looking forward to it and feeling anxious.

In his opinion.

This is the best opportunity for me to break away from Zhang's father's wings and prove her ability to her father.

It hasn't started yet, but this guy has browsed Tieba, Douban, blogs, and Tianya Forum at least hundreds of times all day long. Anyway, he just eats, sleeps, and goes to the toilet and surfs the Internet intensively.

Zhu Yilong was a little calmer, but not much better. He was still browsing the forum after one o'clock in the evening, and secretly opened a small account to post likes.

Looking at Zhou Yutang again, he was eating and drinking when he should, and he was as calm as if nothing was wrong.

The school was on holiday recently, and the three people in the dormitory were still at school. Zhou Yutang sometimes drove to Zeng Li's house with his laptop to stay for a while.

With the beauty in green as my companion, I could revise the script in my spare time, and my life was very free and easy.

Before the show started, Zeng Li was speechless when she saw Zhou Yutang still playing Snake calmly: "Yu Tang, how can you sit still? Are you not worried about the ratings at all?"

Even the ratings of well-known dramas like "The Ming Dynasty" have been sluggish. Sister Li, who was quite confident at first, is now a little panicked.

This is broadcast on the prime time of Hunan Satellite TV. If the ratings do not meet expectations, it will definitely be a heavy blow to newcomers like Zhou Yutang.

"Sister Li, don't you have confidence in the quality of this drama?"

Zhou Yutang put down his Nokia phone and stretched.

"I have confidence, but I can't help but be nervous."

Zeng Li sighed quietly.

She also put a lot of effort into this TV series, playing four roles by one person, and she believed that this was the pinnacle of her acting skills.

While talking to Sister Li, Brother Long called again and asked worriedly:

"Yu Tang, I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that the ratings were too low and you couldn't afford to lose money, so you went to heaven and earth to become a male model."

I didn’t expect Brother Long to be unstable sometimes, even though this dream was somewhat outrageous.

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched, and then Wen Yan comforted him: "Brother Long, dreams are all the other way around. The reputation of the pilot is so good, and there are all kinds of publicity during this period, don't panic, the advantage is mine."

"Well, I hope so."

After Brother Long calmed down for a while, he started to read the comments on the Internet again.

He has devoted almost all his energy to this TV series during this period.

I read the original novel several times. I got up at four o'clock every day and read the character biography from beginning to end. During the day, I spent the day thinking about the character and behavior of Xie Zongru.

Then I studied with teacher Zhang Songwen, and discussed with Zhou Yutang in the evening. Later, I even designed specific actions for the character, which really looked like a villain.

At least in Zhou Yutang's opinion, Brother Long did a pretty good job.

finally.

The first broadcast ratings are out. After the first two episodes of "Want to See You" were aired, the ratings were 0.95% and the audience share was 2.8%, ranking third in the same period.

call!

Zhang Ruojun and Zhu Yilong exhaled and felt relieved.

This data is not too amazing, but it is already above the average for popular dramas.

Zhou Yutang has long been mentally prepared for this. Firstly, the early pace of "Want to See You" is indeed slow. Secondly, there are almost no domestic youth dramas at present, and it takes some time to accept the emergence of new things.

Publicity on the Internet kept up, and after three or four episodes were broadcast, considerable discussions began to take place on Tieba, Douban, blogs, and Tianya Forum.

With such a small-cost investment and a basically new cast, the fact that it can achieve such ratings only shows that the quality of the TV series is excellent.

Moreover, this drama gets better and better as it goes on. As the plot develops and its stamina increases, the ratings will inevitably continue to rise.

as expected.

On the third day, when Huang Yuxuan traveled back in time, the story became even more exciting. The ratings that day had successfully exceeded 1%, and it had become the focus of online discussion.

On the fifth day of broadcast, with the gradual development of the plot, it has climbed to the second place in the TV ratings at the same time. The highest ratings reached a new high of 1.66%, and the ratings share was 5.24. The most frightening thing is that it also showed a continuous upward trend. !

Such an enthusiastic response has set off a complete time travel craze on the Internet, which many people did not expect.

Ou Yangtang, director of Hunan TV station, said in an interview recently: The ratings of the drama "Want to See You" were unexpected and reasonable.

He directed and won this drama last year, and now it seems that his vision was right.

When the TV series was broadcast, the audience size and loyalty were gradually increasing. This shows that Zhou Yutang combines the market and art very well, accurately grasps the current popular elements and market trends, and incorporates considerable high level of artistic expression

As a young screenwriter, Zhou Yutang has profound skills that are inversely proportional to his age. He is rigorous in creation and uses delicate brushwork to set up an exquisite plot. Every detail in the play is intertwined. This play is his own. The most proud work after "Huan Zhuge Ge"...

"Brother Tang, you are going to be popular!"

After Zhang Ruojun read out the draft of President Ouyang Yang's speech aloud, he smiled like a husky from ear to ear.

If Zhou Yutang wants to be popular, he will also become popular!

Although Zhang Ruojun was put into the cast of that CCTV drama by Zhang Zhen's father a few years ago, and the final ratings were not bad, at that time he was just a supporting actor among supporting actors, and he didn't even have a few scenes.

This "Want to Meet You" is different. He is the second male lead, he has a lot of roles, and his role is brilliant.

In the past few days, the number of fans of Zhang Ruojun's personal forum has increased by more than 2,000, and there are also many posts discussing him on the Tianya Forum.

Of course, there is no way to compare with Zhou Yutang.

After the TV series became popular, the name Zhou Yutang seemed to be like thunder exploding on the ground.

It shocked the whole circle.

Thanks to Huohuo for the reward.

Thanks
