This reality show about how actors are trained can be said to be the only variety show in China that uses real actors’ real appearances and real performances as its core selling point. Coupled with its excellent quality, its performance soared within a week after it was broadcast on TV stations and the entire network.
Television ratings are a one-time deal, and they are gone after the first broadcast, but the number of clicks on the Internet has increased at lightning speed, exceeding 100 million.
Of course, a large part of the reason for this is also the powerful traffic that Dream Video itself possesses.
As a video platform with 350 million users, daily active users exceed 50%, and the average user spends more than one hour on the platform every day. Such core data plus the quality of the program content itself is a powerful combination, which has activated a lot of traffic in a short period of time.
Many wonderful clips and dubbings in variety shows have also set off a wave of secondary adaptations on the Dream Video software.
This form of program, fragmented performances, and short videos have a natural fit.
The follow-up effect brought by celebrity actors, coupled with the platform's open copyright, open resources, and operational guidance, has really achieved amazing results. Not to mention ordinary platform users, even many celebrity artists have joined in.
Such behavior has further boosted the popularity of variety shows.
The program team's registration mailbox was once again flooded with applications. In addition to many professional actors, there were even many grassroots artists and amateur stars...
So far...
It can basically be declared that this show has officially become popular.
The recording of the second episode is also in full swing.
It has been planned in great detail. The first recording will focus on non-property performances, but the second recording will begin with an intense and brutal outdoor performance training course.
It was just like everything Jiang Tinghuang had experienced before, placing the actors in a completely unfamiliar environment and asking them to show their own "role" attributes in a specific scene and plot.
This type of program format has undoubtedly raised the difficulty of performance, shooting, and preparation by several levels.
The entire program team is busy around the clock.
However, these have nothing to do with Lu Hao for the time being.
It's already August.
There are three most important things this month.
The first thing is the establishment and start of filming of his new movie "The Wallfacer".
Everyone in DreamWorks, including Lu Hao, as well as a large number of fans, are full of expectations for this movie.
However, this time Lu Hao did not prepare a press conference for the launch of the film. Instead, he chose to shoot in complete secrecy and did not reveal any information to the media.
There's no reason, mainly because there's no need.
When "The Swordsman" was first released, it was the first film in a series, and it had to be a hit. Lu Hao prepared for the opening ceremony alone for a long time, and he exhausted countless brain cells.
Now for the second part, a lot of unnecessary work can be reduced.
Focus on the movie itself.
The leading actors of this movie are still Lu Hao himself, Chu Wen, and most of the crew from the first film, including the leader of the Snow Clan, Dr. Gu... etc.
But in the movie, a very important new character was also added.
It is the IP of this character.
Wallfacer.
A series of movies, each with its own character IP, is a convention and a business rule. Lu Hao is well aware of this and naturally cannot break it easily.
After careful selection, Lu Hao chose Yu Yanzu, one of the most popular and powerful actors in China, to play the role of the Wallfacer.
Yu Yanzu, 32 years old, is in the golden age of a male actor, the most energetic and also the most experienced stage.
In the entire film and television industry, Yu Yanzu is considered to be one of those people with excellent acting skills and character. Not to mention that he has a good image in the minds of fans, even his popularity among passers-by is very good.
Especially...the figure.
It can be said to be first-class.
Even though he is at the age where he is about to gain weight, his abdominal muscles are still clearly visible and his personal lifestyle habits are extremely disciplined.
The film and television company that Yu Yanzu had signed with before was a second-tier film and television company, which was almost propped up by him single-handedly. Even after he became famous, he did not think about changing companies, but still chose to stay with his old company.
Lu Hao originally wanted to sign him directly.
But, there was a small accident.
Due to two consecutive years of film and television downturns and the impact of this year's Lunar New Year holiday, the company's funding chain for several projects is at risk of breaking, and the company is facing closure...
then……
That's even simpler.
Buy the company directly.
It spent nearly 700 million yuan to acquire the company as a whole, making it a studio under DreamWorks. Naturally, various copyright resources, project resources, and artists were also taken into its pocket.
So...
I have money now.
Just so willful.
In fact, examples similar to this acquisition are not uncommon in recent months. To mention others, DreamWorks and Dream Video alone have been waving their checkbooks and making crazy moves in the past three months, just like shopping in a supermarket, causing a stir in the entire entertainment industry.
Less than three months after the successful completion of the first round of financing, Dream Video entered a frenzied acquisition process, taking over a large number of high-quality assets at an average pace of almost one company per week.
