Chapter 631: A Great Beginning
"It's broken! It's broken! Ugh!"
Wang Xiuying grabbed the excited staff member and strangled the second half of his sentence.
Seeing the staff member who didn't know why he was caught and seemed a little at a loss, Wang Xiuying wanted to shake this guy's shoulders hard to shake the second half of his words out of his throat: "How much is it broken? Why don't you say something!"
It's so frustrating!
The staff member was speechless: "I was going to say that myself, but you caught me all of a sudden. I thought something had happened!" What a misunderstanding.
The staff member adjusted his emotions a little, as Wang Xiuying caught him and they became incoherent: "Sister Xiuying, the ratings of the first broadcast of The Legend of White Snake broke 2! 2.137! The market share is 9.35%! This is definitely the best drama of the year! Congratulations, Sister Xiuying, you have a good eye!"
Wang Xiuying spent 400 million yuan to buy the drama "Legend of White Snake" despite the great pressure. It is impossible to say that Wang Xiuying was not worried about failure at all.
Moreover, Magic City Satellite TV is such a big TV station, and the competition in all aspects is very fierce. I don’t know how many people are staring at Wang Xiuying, waiting for her to make a mistake, so that they can bring her down and take over! However, Wang Xiuying has strong professional ability and has never made any big mistakes. She also has a good eye for selecting film and television dramas. In addition, Wang Xiuying has a close personal relationship with Hu Yuhua of Magic City Film, so she can always get high-quality film sources from Hu Yuhua in advance.
Therefore, it is very difficult to find Wang Xiuying's weak spot.
But ever since Wang Xiuying insisted on buying "The Legend of White Snake", those people became restless again.
After all, four hundred million yuan can buy a fantasy blockbuster or a fairy tale masterpiece. Although this "Legend of White Snake" is disguised as a love story between a human and a demon, all the plots revolve around the heroine, the White Snake. There is no grand worldview, no shocking scenes, and no tragic love that makes the audience cry.
Apart from the fact that the lead actors are last year's TVB Best Actress Li Man and the popular Lin Fan, there is really nothing else to show for it. You can say that Lin Fan has a huge fan base with strong fighting power and purchasing power, and they may be able to support the hit rate of online broadcasts, but this group is not the main force contributing to the ratings.
So, I don’t know how many people are secretly waiting for these 400 million to go down the drain! Wang Xiuying herself also thinks that if the show can break 1 in the first round and end with a box office of over 2, then the 400 million will be worth it.
As a result, "The Legend of White Snake" gave everyone, including Wang Xiuying, a huge surprise!
The ratings for the first broadcast exceeded 2!
This is a perfect start, he is destined to be the best drama!
As long as the plot does not collapse in the later stage, the ratings will continue to rise as the series continues to be broadcast, reaching the top, and then ending perfectly.
Of course, if the plot fails, the ratings will also drop, but normally this situation is rare. Moreover, for a TV series that starts with a ratings of over 2, even if it collapses halfway, because it has a high starting point and climbs high, even if it falls straight down, it will fall slower than others!
That’s why the staff said congratulations to Wang Xiuying.
Wang Xiuying was still in a daze, with the sound of "breaking 2" echoing in her ears. It took her a long time to find her voice, but she was still trembling a little: "This data, is it the number one in the fantasy film and television drama this year?"
The staff member didn't notice Wang Xiuying's gaffe and nodded vigorously: "Yes! The most popular fantasy drama in the first half of this year was "The Sky Survey", with a first-round rating of 1.851 and a market share of 7.22%. The peak rating reached 2.775, but it failed to break 3."
Mainly because the ratings started to drop when the show was halfway through its run. Although the drop was not fast, it was indeed lower every day than the previous day.
Even so, with a reported investment of 300 million yuan, a star-studded cast, and a strong cast, the ratings of this drama are still quite good. Although it is not the highest-rated drama, it can still be ranked in the top 10. However, compared with the investment of the drama itself, such ratings can only be said to be unsatisfactory.
But "Legend of White Snake" is completely different. As long as the ratings break 2, no matter it is the beginning or the end, it will be a huge surprise for everyone involved in this drama!
Wang Xiuying was completely relieved, and then she realized that she was still holding on to the staff member. She quickly let go, embarrassedly helped the other person straighten his collar, and smiled awkwardly: "Well, I'm sorry, I lost my composure. Go and do your thing."
The staff member didn't mind at all: "Okay! Then let Sister Xiuying know if you need anything."
Wang Xiuying smiled and waved her hand, watching the staff run to tell the leaders the good news. After they were out of her sight, Wang Xiuying turned around and rushed back to her office. She picked up the phone on the table and called Hu Yuhua: "Hey! Yuhua, I have good news for you!"
…
"Brother Fan, Brother Fan..." Xiao Wan rushed into Lin Fan's lounge in a hurry.
Lin Fan lazily lay on the sofa and scrolled through his phone, but he was not slow at all. He interrupted Xiao Wan to say, "I know, the first episode of Legend of White Snake has exceeded 2 ratings. Such great news. I was woken up by Sister Xia's call this morning before I even woke up."
"Uh..." The words that Xiao Wan was about to say were snatched away by Lin Fan. He was so breathless that he almost suffocated himself!
After finally calming down, Xiao Wan looked at Lin Fan's lazy look and said, "Brother Fan, why don't you seem very happy? It's over 2. This rating is the highest in the entire year for Magic City Satellite TV!"
Lin Fan thought, "New White Snake" had a peak viewership of 96%. Would I tell you this? And even after 20 years, the rerun ratings of this drama could still reach 30%!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Just breaking 2, less than 10% of the share, makes you so happy. When the ratings of this drama skyrocket, won’t you go crazy?
Of course, Blue Planet is not Earth. It does not have the added bonus of sentimentality, nor is it the market environment of several decades ago. It is not an exaggeration to call it a "miracle" that "The Legend of White Snake" can achieve its current results.
After all, the average viewership of the hit TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan" on Earth a few years ago was only 3.89%, and the earlier TV series "Drawing Sword" was only 10.3%, not to mention the Blue Planet, which has a better market environment.
However, Lin Fan, who had already been confident, could not be as excited as Sister Wanxia and the others, "Calm down! This is just the beginning. You have to have confidence in "Legend of the White Snake". Breaking 2 is just the beginning. The ratings of this drama will only get higher and higher."
Xiao Wan nodded in agreement: "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot something! Brother Fan, Sister Xia is looking for you and said that the script for that public welfare film has been approved!"
Lin Fan was stunned: "Has it passed the trial?"
Is that over?
Isn't this too fast?
