Chapter 630 Don’t Be Anxious: Let the Bullets Fly for a While
On the Internet, the wind direction suddenly changed, and this change left many netizens confused.
A large number of articles criticized Su Yang and Qingyao Group, saying that Qingyao Group was too arrogant and that Qingyao Group was bullying others by taking advantage of its power.
At the same time, many media outlets have elevated this matter to the level of cultural tolerance, claiming that Chinese culture has always been the most tolerant culture in the world. We can even tolerate foreign artists, so why can't we tolerate these former compatriots?
The style of these articles confused countless netizens, and many ordinary netizens almost collapsed after reading the news they read.
"Fuck, what's going on? I can't even curse enough today..."
"I'm so sickened! I can't bear to read today's news. Damn, it's all just trolls..."
"Fuck, this is foreign capital getting involved. Why are they targeting Brother Yang?"
"Damn, I've already reported a lot today, but it's useless..."
Ordinary netizens were outraged by the overwhelming number of articles like this. And thanks to big data push, as soon as you read one article, you'll be flooded with articles with the same viewpoint.
Ordinary netizens and the authors of these articles are swearing at each other, and it’s too late to curse each other, which makes countless netizens feel sick to death.
Su Yang also saw the online commotion, and it made him laugh. Damn, after all these years, how could these people still be this way? They were still using the same old tricks, directly using internet trolls, public intellectuals, and the media to manipulate public opinion.
They wanted to use this public opinion to reverse the outcome, but they seemed to have forgotten that Su Yang never bought into this. Furthermore, Qingyao Group wasn't a listed company and didn't care about this kind of public opinion. This public opinion couldn't affect Qingyao Group either.
Su Yang turned on his computer and started to work. In fact, Su Yang had already collected a lot of information in his computer. If he didn't have this information, Su Yang wouldn't do these things.
It was precisely because he had collected a lot of information and understood a lot of facts that Su Yang did this. And by spreading the word, Su Yang also had the intention of fishing.
Now that many fish have emerged, everyone has forgotten the power of Su Yang's sword. That's right, after all, Su Yang has been in a good mood for a long time.
The outside world was in a state of commotion, but there was no response from Qingyao Group and Su Yang.
The news of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" also became known to many people with the help of this wave.
This is the TV series with the largest investment in China, with a total budget of 5 billion yuan. The first season was only shot in about 24 episodes.
The budget for one episode exceeds 200 million RMB, a budget so high that both netizens and major entertainment companies are shocked.
Wow, 200 million per episode for a TV series. Even if each episode is quite long, this budget is still outrageous. You have to know that in China now, 200 million is considered a relatively large production for a movie.
Now the wealthy Qingyao Media actually spent so much money to produce TV series, which is really a waste of money. Look at the way my own TV series are made, and then look at the way Qingyao Media makes TV series. There is really no comparison. Comparison is the thief of anger.
Such a high budget is a huge deal for the director, actors and other staff.
In this era, money makes things easier.
With money, productions can be lavish. Actors' salaries don't have to be stingy, staff salaries can be increased, props can be made more sophisticated, and the production quality of the TV series will naturally be higher.
But this budget has caused people in the industry to discuss it. With such a large investment, a total of 24 episodes of TV series, can such a TV series recoup its costs?
This budget is too high. There are 24 episodes in total. Even if you use the pay-per-view model, how much will you sell one TV series for?
How much pay-per-view subscription would it take to recoup the costs? It's a lavish undertaking, but it's also a real risk. Only Qingyao Media in China dares to make such an investment; no other company can afford it.
For other companies, the question isn't whether they dare, but whether they can afford it. With the exception of Qingyao Media, almost no other film and television company in China could afford to spend 5 billion to produce a TV series. After all, 5 billion is simply too much.
Not only the entertainment industry sighed, but even other circles couldn't help but sigh. Five billion to make a TV series, this is really exaggerated. If five billion were given to some companies, it could save many companies.
The "Ghost Blows Out the Light" project was launched within Qingyao Group, with not only Qingyao Media but also several other subsidiaries taking action, including special effects companies, animation companies, and game companies.
Qingyao Group is very familiar with operating IP with full copyright. For Qingyao Group, creating a super IP with 5 billion is a huge profit.
Su Yang is still writing his novel, but he doesn't plan to release it right away. He'll stick to the old routine and wait until the TV series is almost finished before releasing the novel globally. With Su Yang's fame, he can quickly accumulate some fans.
The TV series will be released one after another, and they complement each other and form a direct linkage. After the TV series is released, animation, games, and peripheral products will be launched in an overwhelming manner.
The Qingyao Group's attitude towards foreign actors sparked a stir online for two days before the heat began to slowly subside. During these two days, many people left messages for Su Yang, hoping to hear his response. However, Su Yang remained silent. Just when everyone thought he was going to take the matter cold, he updated his status.
"Regarding Qingyao Group's refusal to collaborate with artists who have acquired foreign citizenship, let me first give a brief response. It's true, and I gave the order. As for the reason, it's actually not as complicated as everyone thinks. I simply don't want to collaborate with these foreign actors in my works. To put it bluntly, I don't think they deserve to appear in my works. I thought this matter was an internal matter of our company, after all, it was only an internal matter of Qingyao Group. But unexpectedly, some people jumped out at me these past two days. Haha, you really don't want to take the honor I gave you. I didn't want to make such a big fuss about this, but now that everyone is making such a fuss, fine, let's talk about it. I've sorted out some information over the past two days, so don't worry, hehe, see you on "Late Night Exposure Show". You don't even love your own country, and you come to me to discuss artistic ethics, haha, I'll spit in your face..."
Su Yang's status was updated. After seeing this update, the topic, which was about to cool down, suddenly exploded again.
Those who had been so cheerful these past two days, all looked ashen after seeing the five big words "Late Night Skin Show"!
