Chapter 234: Survival in the Wilderness: The First Step of Hai Ye's Becoming a God
After the news of "Su Yang Show" was revealed, many fans began to look forward to this show.
Not only that, but after the news broke, many investors and partners came knocking on our door. Television stations, streaming platforms, and even some entertainment companies came to see if they could arrange some guests.
As long as it's not "Late Night Show", they are still willing to cooperate with Su Yang. After all, Su Yang's talent is obvious to all. He can easily create a show that will be very popular. This time, it seems that Su Yang is going to make a serious show, and perhaps the popularity will be even higher.
Tang Qing welcomed this kind of cooperation. To thrive in this industry, one couldn't be too independent. Su Yang, that idiot, didn't use connections. Tang Qing couldn't follow his example. No matter where one was, having more connections made things easier. Giving up some of one's own interests would make future development easier.
Just when Su Yang was busy with "Su Yang Show", Su Donghai and his group returned exhausted.
It has been more than ten days since Su Donghai and his team set out, and the first episode of recording has been completed. For the first episode, they did not go abroad to record, but chose the snow-capped Xing'an Mountains.
Su Donghai crossed the Xing'an Mountains alone, carrying all his equipment on foot. It took him eleven days to finally complete the challenge.
In the editing room, Su Yang was also curiously watching the fun. He wasn't very proficient in video editing, but luckily Tang Qing had recruited someone to come over.
Xu Kai is also well-known in the industry.
Su Donghai filmed a large amount of footage, and Xu Kai needed to edit it into a complete film. There was no hard and fast rule for the length of the video; the simplest approach was to edit out any boring scenes, leaving only the interesting and exciting parts at the end.
Post-production is very important for a program. For this episode of "Man vs. Wild", Su Yang not only requested Chinese subtitles, but also subtitles and dubbing in other languages.
"Brother Hai, how was your experience this time?"
After watching for a while, Su Yang felt bored, so he found a place to sit down and started chatting with Su Donghai.
"Not bad, it feels quite exciting. But Yangyang, this video won't lead children astray, will it? If someone watches this show and imitates it, it would be dangerous. This kind of wilderness survival is simply not something that ordinary people can handle."
Su Donghai couldn't help but say worriedly. This kind of wilderness survival is extremely difficult. Although Su Donghai was well prepared for this crossing, he still used rescue supplies.
However, this time travel also taught Su Donghai a lot. Although he had learned a lot in the army before, some knowledge could only be learned through actual experience.
"Don't worry, we'll remind everyone on the show. Besides, even if they imitate it and something happens, it's not our fault. This kind of wilderness survival is an extreme sport. Anyone with a normal brain knows the dangers involved."
Su Yang said with a smile, and Su Donghai nodded. "Yeah, damn, everyone knows how dangerous this is, even without this video. If you think you can ride on this hype, then go for it. If something dangerous happens and you die outside, you can only blame your team or your own incompetence."
"You've come back just in time. I've created a new talk show and will start recording in the next two days. You could be a guest star..."
Su Yang said with a smile, and Su Donghai nodded. Since he had become a contracted employee of Qingyao Media, he was already prepared.
Su Yang did not treat Su Donghai unfairly. For the show "Man vs. Wild", the company paid Su Donghai 1.2 million per episode plus a 20% profit dividend.
This price is very good. Even if the video loses money, Su Donghai can still make 1.2 million RMB per episode. This was something Su Donghai could never have imagined before.
At the current filming speed, one episode per month, Su Donghai can earn 14.4 million before tax just from this fee.
For Su Donghai, this was a gift of wealth. In this world, everyone dislikes money. Even Su Donghai, a common man, liked it.
Su Donghai is a straightforward person, not a fool. Su Yang asked him to be a guest on his show, naturally wanting to boost his popularity. After all, Su Yang's popularity is not something that ordinary people can get.
After two days of editing, the first episode of "Man vs. Wild" was finally completed.
The first season of "Man vs. Wild" was also exclusively sponsored by Su Xiaobai, who received a sponsorship fee of 500,000 yuan for each episode.
Although Su Xiaobai is currently selling well, the brand still needs to continue operating. "Under One Person" is still updated with one episode per week, and netizens are very excited to watch it. However, animation is animation, and other aspects of marketing must also be marketed.
Six million yuan in marketing expenses a year is still very necessary for Su Xiaobai now. After all, according to Su Xiaobai's current production capacity, it is several hundred million yuan a year. A few million yuan in marketing expenses a year is nothing.
In the conference room, Tang Qing, Su Yang and their group nodded in satisfaction after watching the first episode.
After editing, the first episode was 226 minutes long, nearly three hours long, like a movie. It was also quite interesting to watch, Su Donghai alone, carrying the simplest equipment, and trekking through the Xing'an Mountains. The documentary style of the filming was really interesting.
"Great! I'll contact a few video sites to see if any are willing to purchase the exclusive broadcasting rights..."
Tang Qing said with a smile, and Su Yang nodded. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but once the initial steps are taken care of, the rest will be much easier. Once the first season of "Man vs. Wild" becomes popular, those video websites will come knocking on the door with the money.
The first episode of "Survival in the Wild" has been completed, and after a few days of preparation, the first episode of "Su Yang Show" is finally about to start recording.
Su Yang didn't have many requirements for the first season. Now his only requirement was speed. He needed to quickly earn popularity to exchange medicine for his wife. His wife and child were the most important thing.
Everyone got busy. Su Yang was busy filming "Su Yang Show", Tang Qing was busy looking for a broadcast platform for "Survival in the Wilderness", and she also had to find time to be responsible for the girl group's second album.
The filming of "Su Yang Show" also went smoothly, and the first episode was completed in just one afternoon.
"At 8pm, 'Man vs. Wild' premieres on Penguin. Master Hai will take you to the Greater Khingan Range. Remember to support us..."
Two days later, Su Yang and Qin Shuyao both updated their Weibo.
The poster of "Man vs. Wild" was posted. The background of the poster was a magnificent forest and snowy plains, and Su Donghai was wearing a camouflage uniform, like a special forces soldier.
There are some very eye-catching big words on the poster: Eleven days, one person, hiking across the Greater Khingan Range, Hai Ye will take you to survive in the wilderness.
After seeing this poster, many netizens became excited.
"Holy crap, hiking through the Xing'an Mountains is so awesome..."
"Wow, wow, wow, Hai Ye's new show, I must go support it..."
"My Lord Hai, a godlike man..."
"Hahaha, support, support..."
"The planner turned out to be Brother Yang. I must support him..."
"We must support him. Master Hai is a real man..."
"Hai Ye is going to play alone this time, hahaha, the second generation of stars can't carry him..."
Netizens are buzzing about it. "Metamorphosis" made Su Donghai an instant hit. He's quite popular now, considering how burly he is in the Chinese entertainment industry. He's a true tough guy, made of special steel.
"Man vs. Wild" officially landed on Penguin. Although Su Yang didn't have much affection for Penguin, he had to admit that this wealthy dog was really willing to spend money. After watching "Man vs. Wild", he immediately decided to buy out the exclusive broadcast rights of the first season of "Man vs. Wild" for 3 million per episode.
As for overseas platforms, Qingyao Media has directly registered an account on YouTube, and after "Man vs. Wild" is broadcast on Penguin, the video will be put on YouTube.
Before we knew it, night had officially fallen amid everyone's anticipation.
Su Yang and Qin Shuyao’s Weibo promotion was extremely powerful. After fermenting for most of the day, many netizens knew that Su Yang’s new program "Survival in the Wilderness" would be broadcast on Penguin tonight.
And the genre is something they've never seen before: "Wilderness Survival." The reason "Transformers" is so popular right now is actually because it incorporates elements of wilderness survival, and everyone seems curious about how you can actually have fun in the wild.
But Transformation wasn't really wilderness survival. After all, the mountains surrounding Sanshan Village weren't exactly dangerous. Compared to true wilderness survival, it was just child's play.
Song Bing is a programmer living in a big city. Twenty-six years old and still single, he rents a single room and lives a monotonous and boring life.
Song Bing didn't have many hobbies or interests; the pace of life in the big city kept him from socializing much. He got off work at 6:30 every day, and it took him over an hour on the subway to get home.
Although the company rarely worked overtime, the three-hour commute each day was a disguised form of overtime. As for renting a room near the company, Song Bing was reluctant because the rent there was too expensive.
Today, Song Bing got off work as usual and grabbed a bowl of fried noodles from a street vendor at the entrance of the residential complex for dinner. Returning to his rental apartment, he quickly finished his meal and lay down on his small bed.
After a busy day, lying on his own bed, this moment can be said to be full of happiness. Like many young people, Song Bing also never leaves his mobile phone.
However, Song Bing doesn't like playing games very much, but prefers watching movies, TV series and so on.
Today, Song Bing, lying in bed, logged into Penguin Video. Seeing the "Man vs. Wild" ad on the homepage, Song Bing laughed. Song Bing was a fan of Su Yang, who had watched "Metamorphosis" and had become a fan of Hai Ye after watching it.
This time, "Survival in the Wild" was planned by Su Yang and participated by Hai Ye. This setting made Song Bing very curious about this program.
After changing into a comfortable position, Song Bing opened "Man vs. Wild" and started watching it.
Click on the video, VIPs can skip the advertisement and the video will officially start playing.
"This program is exclusively sponsored by Su Xiaobai. Su Xiaobai, life is actually very simple."
Although Song Bing is a VIP, he cannot skip Su Xiaobai's advertisement because Su Yang and his team directly edited the advertisement into the video.
But the ad is very simple, just a few seconds, just an introduction.
After the commercial, the show officially begins.
"Hi, everyone. I'm Su Donghai. I'm currently in the Greater Khingan Range. The navigation has stopped me from finding any roads, and the car can barely move forward. I'm about to get out of the car. This time, I'm going to complete a difficult challenge. I'm going to hike across the Greater Khingan Range alone. This is a challenge no one has ever attempted. At least, no one has ever done it on TV. This time, I'm going to push the limits..."
The video officially started playing. The entire shot was like a selfie shot on a mobile phone. Su Donghai spoke to the camera and then turned the camera to the outside.
The scenery outside made Song Bing open his eyes wide.
Outside, it was a vast expanse of white, a quiet primeval forest without any noise. Covered with thick white snow, it was a picture of silver.
As the camera lens moved, Song Bing felt a sense of shock, a kind of shock that belonged to nature. This kind of shock was rarely seen in ordinary times. The snow scene here was much more shocking than those so-called snow towns.
The car quickly stopped because there was no road ahead. Even a specially modified off-road vehicle was powerless at this moment.
Su Donghai jumped out of the car, put on his backpack, and looked up at the majestic primeval forest.
"It's truly beautiful here, isn't it? But the more beautiful something is, the more danger it carries. Here, danger could occur at any moment, and I can't say that in a literal sense. If you were to encounter danger deep in this forest, even if you could successfully call for help, the chances of rescue would be extremely slim. True wilderness survival isn't a treat or a variety show, but an extreme challenge. This kind of challenge requires not only strong physical fitness and a strong willpower, but also professional wilderness survival knowledge. Today, I'll take you into this mysterious world..."
Under the camera, Su Donghai officially set off, carrying a special backpack and wearing a special helmet on his head with a special camera on it.
With just one person, a backpack and no team, Su Donghai slowly entered the mysterious Xing'an Mountains.
"Wow, that's awesome! Master Hai is the eternal God..."
"This is a real man..."
"Oh my god, this is a primeval forest. Will I encounter a Siberian tiger?"
"It's possible, damn, there's also a blind bear..."
"Fuck, Master Hai is playing with his life..."
"I'm so worried..."
The comments became lively, and Song Bing's heart couldn't help but rise. Trekking through the Xing'an Mountains alone was incredibly thrilling.
In this wilderness, countless people, like Song Bing, were watching "Man vs. Wild". When Hai Ye officially set off, their hearts also rose with Hai Ye's steps.
