Chapter 433 Su Su, I understand (asking for monthly tickets and subscriptions)
The ratings of the finale of "In the Name of People" exceeded 15.
What kind of concept is this?
The single episode ratings exceeded 15. It can be said that such ratings have not been seen in the whole of China for nearly 16 years, especially at a time when video websites are developing rapidly.
Who the hell still watches TV?
Those who watch TV series are middle-aged and elderly people, and what TV series do these people watch?
Generally, the dramas are like "I would give birth to a son for the Zhu family even if I die", "Although my husband's family was exposed for cheating and my mother-in-law tortured me in various ways, I am a good daughter-in-law of the Wang family", etc.
In comparison, many high-quality dramas are no longer broadcast on TV.
Over the years, China is not without good screenwriters, like Xiao Liang, Fang Xi, and many excellent screenwriters in the Screenwriters Association, but the TV series they wrote either did not do well in the ratings, or they were made into web dramas.
With the rise of high-quality online dramas, and the fact that video sites are frantically spending money to grab market share, almost all screenwriters with a little bit of ambition are rushing to online dramas.
Think about it, if you are rich and have a promising future, you would go there too.
This is almost a vicious competition.
But TV series are still better than online dramas, and for many people, they still feel that they have to go into TV series and want to prove themselves.
Generally speaking, even for Star City TV or several other first-tier satellite TV stations, if the ratings can break 4, it is considered a success. If it breaks 5 or 6, it would be a good little miracle.
Think about it, this year Star City TV had so many flops that it hardly even broke 3, let alone 4. Here I would like to mention those flops produced by Su Dong.
After saying so much, there is actually only one thing to say, that is, the ratings of "In the Name of People" are sky-high.
After the ratings came out, the industry was shocked.
Xiao Liang, who was writing a mission drama, was suddenly shocked when he saw the ratings.
Yu Xiaoshu is already invincible in the field of TV dramas.
This invincibility refers to his scriptwriting ability, but more importantly, it refers to his control over the market.
Some screenwriters just follow the trend and embrace the market, while others take the initiative to lead the market.
It is obvious that Yu Xiaoshu is such a person.
He has always been at the forefront of the market and has changed the market time and time again.
I'm afraid many people can't do this.
No.
To be precise, the only person who can do this in China is the top leader.
A serious drama, an anti-corruption drama has achieved this.
you say.
What else is there to say?
At this moment, Xiao Liang's office door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man wearing glasses said anxiously: "Old Xiao, you saw that the ratings of In the Name of People actually reached 15 in the end. This is too exaggerated and terrifying."
"So, what do you want to say??"
Xiao Liang looked at Ning Hai with some amusement.
Ning Hai is the general manager of Xiao Liang's company.
The two people are not only partners, but also good friends for more than ten years.
So naturally we discuss everything together.
In the past two years, Xiao Liang had told Ning Hai that he was planning to write some serious drama scripts.
At present, this market is still quite large.
However, it has not been implemented yet.
Xiao Liang is not Yu Xiaoshu. Yu Xiaoshu has a plug-in, so Yu Xiaoshu can write multiple scripts a year, but Xiao Liang can't.
Xiao Liang can only publish two books a year at most.
Of course, Xiao Liang is similar to Yu Xiaoshu in one respect, that is, he also has several screenwriters in the company, and these screenwriters often write Xiao Liang's outline.
This is quite normal.
Otherwise, if this company only relied on Xiao Liang's two scripts, it would starve to death.
"Don't you know what I mean?"
Ning Hai said excitedly, "Old Xiao, from "Sweeping Dark Storm" to "In the Name of People", we can see that this kind of serious drama is gradually rising, and there are relatively few serious dramas in the market now. Didn't you always say that you want to write a serious drama? Now is a good time. I know you want to write that anti-Japanese drama first, but it's not a big problem. You can write two outlines and then let our company's contracted screenwriters write them. You can just keep an eye on it later."
"Lao Ning, don't get excited. Do you think it's a good thing to follow the trend of "In the Name of People" at this time???"
Xiao Liang asked helplessly.
"Of course it's a good thing. Since there are relatively few serious dramas now, we can naturally grab the attention."
Ning Hai said unhappily at this time: "What? You think we shouldn't follow the trend?"
"Of course we shouldn't follow the trend. Have you seen any of Yu Xiaoshu's scripts that are so easy to follow? Take the TV series "Soldier Assault" for example. In the past two years, which military drama has surpassed "Soldier Assault"? Did all those that followed the trend of "Soldier Assault" fail? And not only did they fail, but they were also ridiculed?"
Xiao Liang shook his head slightly and said, "Let's talk about Yu Xiaoshu's movie Lost on Journey. You thought he was a good guy and thought we should follow suit. After all, the return rate is quite high. What happened? The box office of those two follow-up movies has already failed. And the one starring Xia Qing and Wang Yu that will be released soon, I think the possibility of failure is 100%. What do you think, should we still follow suit???"
Ning Hai disagreed with Xiao Liang's point of view: "I think we are following the trend but not plagiarizing. Besides, you don't have to write it. It would be great if we can let our company's screenwriters work together. As long as..."
"Don't think about it, Lao Ning, just listen to my advice. Whoever follows the trend of anti-corruption dramas like "In the Name of People" will die."
Xiao Liang shook his head slightly and said, "Scripts and actors are both indispensable. Think about it yourself. If Qi Tongwei, Gao Yuliang, Hou Liangping and others were all young actors, no, no young actors, but some so-called veteran actors who are not very veteran actors were used to play the roles, what do you think would happen?"
What will happen? ?
Ning Hai said without thinking: "Of course it will be embarrassing."
"Yes, so don't think that In the Name of People is so simple. The script is one thing. Yes, it's easy to write an anti-corruption drama like this, but what about the actors? Moreover, the strength of In the Name of People lies in its characters. This depth is something that most people can't write."
Xiao Liang nodded slightly and said.
“You can’t do it?”
Ning Hai was stunned.
"It's not just me. I'm afraid even Fang Xi can't do it. I think only Mr. Lu can have such depth in his character."
Xiao Liang shook his head and said.
Ning Hai was a little unconvinced: "How is this possible? How old is Yu Xiaoshu? He can..."
“So, he is a genius among geniuses.”
Xiao Liang laughed and said, "Old Ning, listen to me. We won't join in the fun. Whoever wants to join in can do so. Let our company's screenwriters continue to write two-dimensional dramas and comedy dramas."
"OK."
Ning Hai thought for a moment and said, "I don't understand screenwriting. Since you say you don't want to write it, then I won't write it."
However, there are still too few people as smart and clear-headed as Xiao Liang.
Because the ratings of "In the Name of People" are so explosive, who wouldn't envy such a high ratings? ?
Just like when "Lost on Journey" took a small risk to win big, even if everyone thinks it will flop, they still have to give it a try.
Because if it succeeds, the rewards are so great.
The same is true of the success of "In the Name of People" this time. If it was just an average success, it would be fine, but the problem is that "In the Name of People" broke the record.
The breaking of this record is truly terrifying.
Breaking 15, a record that has not been seen in nearly 16 years.
Now with the rise of video websites and short videos, it is really not something that ordinary dramas can achieve if their ratings can exceed 15.
A divine drama.
A true divine drama.
Otherwise, some young screenwriters, no, not just young screenwriters, but some platinum screenwriters would also have some regrets.
It is a pity to live in the same era as Yu Xiaoshu.
Because it is.
Yu Xiaoshu was once the youngest platinum screenwriter. At that time, many people thought that Yu Xiaoshu would be invincible in the same period. However, what no one expected was that Yu Xiaoshu was like a powerful pill, coming quickly and going quickly.
Then after being hard for a few seconds, it suddenly ejaculated.
This thing is really unstoppable.
Think about it, at Kunlang Film and Television, how many people looked down on Yu Xiaoshu at the beginning, and some even thought that Yu Xiaoshu was a waste.
Not to mention that everyone was pointing at Yu Xiaoshu and calling him a waste.
And now???
It took Yu Xiaoshu three years to bounce back step by step, and he was back at the top again.
The TV series "Soldier Assault" brought Yu Xiaoshu to the peak of his career. At that time, Yu Xiaoshu was actually invincible in the field of TV dramas.
At that time, everyone's speculation about "Soldier Assault" was that it was a TV series unprecedented and unparalleled.
Ratings 12, who can surpass that? ?
What a good result.
In the past two years, Yu Xiaoshu surpassed himself again with "In the Name of People".
Records are meant to be broken.
This statement is not wrong, but even some platinum screenwriters feel that they cannot surpass the TV series "Soldier Assault".
Because, records are meant to be broken, but how do you break the ceiling? ?
Damn it, even if I take 100 Liuwei Dihuang Pills, 100 wolfberries, and 100 Jingui Shenqi Pills, it’s useless.
There is nothing you can do even if you eat so much that you end up in the hospital.
It is precisely because of this that everyone thinks "Soldier Assault" is a benchmark for Mandarin dramas.
But two years later, Yu Xiaoshu broke his own record again with "In the Name of People".
Everyone remembered the famous classic line on Douhu that the penis is two meters and eighty centimeters long.
The only one who can defeat Yu Xiaoshu is Yu Xiaoshu.
This is indeed the case.
When the ratings for "In the Name of People" came out, many screenwriters felt frustrated and lost, and felt deeply shocked.
Forget about the goal of surpassing Yu Xiaoshu. Just thinking about Yu Xiaoshu's achievements makes your scalp tingle.
At the same time, in the coffee shop.
Bai Suzhen began to write scripts for anti-Japanese dramas.
The script she wrote is called "A Piece of Candy", which is a story about a piece of candy.
How to say it? ?
Bai Suzhen had been in the West for a long time, so she began to be influenced by some Western ideas, and even believed that she should be anti-war under the circumstances at that time.
Anti-war.
That's right.
When Bai Suzhen received this assignment, she had already thought about what to write.
She believes that war is painful at any time and that it causes great harm to the people. At the same time, Bai Suzhen thinks that people should not worship war, but should reflect on it.
This is why Bai Suzhen doesn’t like some anti-Japanese dramas in China.
Some of the plots in those anti-Japanese dramas are just too rubbish, and no matter which side they are on, they are basically rubbish.
What Bai Suzhen wants to do is to shoot a truly neutral anti-Japanese drama.
So, she has been writing the script these two days and she didn't look at the situation online.
Then, her best friend Xiang Yan came to find her and told her the results of In the Name of People.
"It's really horrible, Susu, you know the industry is wailing right now. Not to mention the industry, even I feel a little sad."
After Xiang Yan talked about the ratings of In the Name of People, she said, "My best drama also had a rating of over 4, but what about Yu Xiaoshu? At first, I thought Yu Xiaoshu was a waste, and I even felt that I was blind for having liked Yu Xiaoshu. Now it seems that I am the clown."
After all, Xiang Yan and Bai Susu are best friends, and Xiang Yan actually tried to persuade Bai Susu to break up with Yu Xiaoshu.
She felt that Bai Susu was too generous. What was wrong with Yu Xiaoshu?
But later on, Yu Xiaoshu suddenly ran out of ideas. At that time, Xiang Yan felt that Bai Susu had good vision.
What is the result? ?
In the end, no one expected that Yu Xiaoshu actually stood up, and not only did he stand up, he became stronger and stronger.
Invincible.
It’s really invincible.
Xiang Yan kept chattering on and on at this time.
But Bai Suzhen was very calm.
Five minutes later, Bai Su Su looked up and asked, "Are you done?"
"Ah, that's all."
Xiang Yan was a little surprised: "Susu, why don't you react at all?"
"What reaction do you want??"
Bai Su Su said nonchalantly: "I am surprised that In the Name of People has achieved such a high audience rating, but so what?"
Xiang Yan looked at Bai Susu and was a little unresponsive for a moment: "Susu, don't you feel shocked at all?"
"Only the weak will be hit. Yu Xiaoshu is strong, but there are also many screenwriters abroad who are stronger than Yu Xiaoshu. Does it mean that every time you see someone stronger than you, you have to be hit?"
Bai Su Su said with a firm look in her eyes: "Besides, he may not be able to beat me in this mission drama."
This is Bai Suzhen.
Xiang Yan sighed inwardly.
Sure enough, the hearts of geniuses are determined.
As a screenwriter, if you lose the courage to move forward, then you will indeed fail.
Xiang Yan nodded gently: "Susu, I understand."
