Chapter 141 "Mysterious Screenwriter" Teacher Meng
With Meng's father and mother going out, Meng Bai, who was left alone, could only spend the Spring Festival "lonely".
However, he was not able to stay at home for a few days. Just after the Spring Festival holiday, the member audience meeting of "Soul Ferry" is about to begin.
According to the update speed of four episodes a week, "Soul Ferry 2" finally finished the finale before the Spring Festival.
In the final battle, the soul of Chi You in the male protagonist was taken away by the "Taishan God", the villain's Xiao Ri Shi Wu Nu also died, and Zhao Li's soul re-hosted in the male protagonist, waiting for a chance to resurrect.
In general, the pits that should be filled in the main line are basically filled, and it is a satisfactory ending.
The audience who have been following it gave a high evaluation. Because the content of the two seasons is compressed together, the rhythm is also more brisk. The final score of 8.9 is 0.2 higher than the first season.
As for the number of views, with the end of the broadcast period, the final data was fixed at 1.26 billion, becoming the first self-made web drama with more than 1 billion views.
At the end of February, the Beijing North Convention and Exhibition Center.
The hall that can accommodate more than 2,000 people was packed with people today.
Most of the audience were young people, and many of them held up light boards and banners.
"Sister, did you also win the lottery?"
"No, I paid extra money to buy the ticket from someone else online."
"Wow, you're so rich! I saw that the ticket was sold for more than three hundred yuan before."
"What do you mean three hundred? The lowest price now is five hundred!"
"No way, it's just a fan meeting, why is it so expensive?"
"Didn't you read the introduction on the official Weibo? All accounts that are eligible for the lottery will receive an official gift box. It includes a collector's edition setting book, autographed photos and figures of the leading actors, and many peripheral products. Those who didn't show up will also be mailed to their addresses. So now many people buy not only tickets, but also this official gift box."
"I see. Then think about it this way, five hundred yuan is quite a good deal. After all, a setting book alone costs nearly one hundred yuan."
"Well, money is a small matter. The key is that at the end of the fan meeting, you can go on stage and take photos with the leading actors. Um-I want to hug Sister Qinqin!"
"Haha, just kidding, Qinbao is mine, and can only be with me!"
"Draw your sword, sister!"
"..."
The audience gathered in groups of three or five, chatting while waiting for the meeting to begin.
"Tsk."
Next to the backstage curtain, Zhang Ruoyun looked at the crowded auditorium outside and sighed, "It feels like there are about 2,000 people here today?"
"How can there be so many." Meng Bai said on the side, "The total number of places for lottery is 2,000, but excluding those who are unable to come due to inconvenience or other reasons, there are only more than 1,000 people who actually show up."
Although today is the weekend, not everyone has time to attend the event.
Especially for audiences outside Beijing and North Beijing, although Leshi.com and Arclight Films promised to reimburse the round-trip fare, meals and accommodation will cost at least a thousand yuan.
So the number of people who actually showed up today is at most 60% to 70%.
But even so, it was quite spectacular at a glance.
The two were chatting when they suddenly heard a burst of exclamations behind them. Meng Bai turned his head and his eyes lit up immediately.
As one of the leading actors, Li Qin was also here. However, unlike her usual attire, she changed into a plain white embroidered costume today, with wide sleeves hanging on both sides, adding a bit of elegance to her already cold temperament.
Although her face was not hooked or her hair was tied up, anyone who saw her had to admit that she was a beautiful classical beauty!
As a popular actress, it was common for her to attract attention. Therefore, in response to the praises from the backstage staff and crew colleagues, Li Qin just smiled generously.
It was not until she saw Meng Bai looking at her that she felt a little unnatural.
She gently gathered her sleeves and walked to Meng Bai's side. Seeing that the other party was still staring at her, Li Qin was happy in her heart, but her face remained calm and asked: "Does it look good?"
"What are you talking about? When has Teacher Li not looked good?" Meng Bai said with a smile.
Although she knew that this guy was teasing her, Li Qin couldn't help laughing.
"Are you ready?" Meng Bai looked at her and asked.
Li Qin nodded: "I have specially prepared for this period of time, there will be no problem on the scene."
The audience meeting is of course not just a simple meeting. The crew and the leading actors always have to prepare some programs.
As the most popular song in the second season, "Red Ling" is definitely indispensable, which is why Li Qin changed her clothes today.
"I heard that you are filming a TV series recently?"
"Yes, a spy war drama in cooperation with Noon Sunshine. I am the screenwriter." Meng Bai said: "I mainly want to learn from the production experience of other mature crews."
Li Qin's eyes moved, and she looked at Meng Bai and said: "Then will Arc Light Film and Television also plan to enter the TV series market in the future?"
Meng Bai shook his head: "It shouldn't be in the short term. At least before gaining a foothold in the online drama market, it should focus on online dramas."
"Is that so..." A trace of disappointment flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Li Qin shook her head and put on a smile again. Seeing that the time was almost up, she took a deep breath and said: "It's about to start. I'll go prepare."
She was the opening show of today.
"Come on!" Meng Bai raised his fist to cheer her up.
As a graduate of a formal school, Li Qin's singing and performance are naturally no problem at all. After the combination of a song and opera performance ended, the applause and cheers from the audience were continuous, and the whole venue instantly became more lively.
Today's host is a female anchor named Zhang Rui of Leshi.com. She has been working at Leshi Sports before. She is a young lady with a thin waist and long legs.
Li Qin, Zhang Ruoyun, Yu Yi and more than 500 people took the stage one by one, and in the end only Meng Bai was left to hold the stage.
"Since the launch of the entire "Soul Ferry" series, we have received hundreds of thousands of messages and comments from the audience. One of the most common phrases is 'The screenwriter is so awesome'. But before this, everyone has never had a chance to meet our screenwriter."
The anchor girl was interrupted by the voices of the audience before she finished speaking.
"Meng Bai!"
"Send a razor blade! Send a razor blade!"
"Give me back my Dali Li!"
"..."
Various voices came one after another, not inferior to the several leading actors who appeared before.
There is no way. Many of the people present today are old viewers who have been following the first series. They have all seen how under-budgeted, crudely made the props, and rough the scenes were for Soul Ferry.
So they all know that this drama was able to break through the siege of various big-budget and big-star TV dramas at the time and forcibly carve out a new online drama market. More than 80% of it depends on the outstanding script.
With the broadcast of the second season, the units of Chi Ling, Old Things, and the later Weaver Girl have raised the pattern of the entire series to an extremely high position.
Many viewers even left a message directly after the finale, saying that Soul Ferry is the ceiling of current online dramas.
For this reason, many viewers have a strong curiosity about the screenwriter of this drama, "Meng Bai". Unfortunately
, as the "Meng Bai Da Da" behind the scenes, he rarely shows up, and many viewers hear only hearsay news.
If it were other works, people might not be so curious about a screenwriter. It just so happens that "Soul Ferry" is a suspenseful supernatural drama. This "mysterious" style, which is unusually matched with the style of the entire drama, has attracted a lot of discussion from the audience and even led to many "rumors".
And today, they can finally see a "real, alive" Meng Bai, and they are naturally very excited.
Although she used to be a sports program anchor, Zhang Rui has quite a lot of experience. When the noise on the scene died down a little, she continued: "Then the next one to appear is the 'screenwriter' that everyone has been thinking about for a long time, Mr. Meng Bai!"
