In the end, when all the advertising fees were calculated, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
It was an average of 42,000 Hua Xia dollars per second. The first round of broadcasting rights for 50 episodes of Frightening Step by Step earned 1.26 billion.
Excluding the cost, Xiao Yunhai earned 160 million, while Hanhai Film and Television, which took up the majority, earned 460 million.
This was only the first round. There was still the second round of broadcasting rights and online broadcasting rights. It could be said that Xiao Yunhai earned at least 500 million with Frightening Step by Step, and Hanhai Film and Television earned even more.
After the people from the TV station left, Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said to Zhao Wanqing, "What do you think? Beautiful. My son-in-law is not bad, right? He hasn't even become your son-in-law, but he already gave my future father-in-law such a big betrothal gift. It's hard to find such a son-in-law. "
Zhao Wanqing looked out of the door nervously and said, "Keep your voice down. It'll be terrible if outsiders hear us."
Xiao Yunhai pursed his lips and said, "So what if they hear us? Don't worry, with just my ears, I'll be able to hear any movement within a radius of 40 meters. What's more, we can't always be so secretive about our relationship. Let me say that we should just announce it to the media. "
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "I don't want to marry you so early. I still want to act for a few more years. "
Zhao Wanqing was very happy that Xiao Yunhai could disregard her acting career and announce their relationship.
However, she was still too young and wanted to work hard in the industry, so she didn't plan to announce their relationship in the near future.
In the current entertainment industry, no artist dared to announce their love life in public. They were all afraid that once they did, their fans would immediately quit, and that would be a fatal blow to their acting career.
Therefore, even if many big stars were accidentally photographed by paparazzi, they would still deny it when they were interviewed.
Xiao Yunhai didn't care about that.
First of all, he was not an idol artist. He did not need to pay attention to his image at all times like them.
Secondly, he had the entertainment resources on Earth in his mind. He could rely on his true strength to gain everyone's recognition.
As for Zhao Wanqing, Xiao Yunhai naturally wouldn't let her remain silent because of this matter. Xiao Yunhai only needed to create a super luxurious music album for her, and with some appropriate publicity, he could immediately win back the hearts of countless fans.
However, since Zhao Wanqing said so, Xiao Yunhai naturally respected her choice and didn't want to force her.
Soon, the two of them met the representatives of the advertisers. When they saw Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing, they all looked puzzled. They didn't understand why the two protagonists of "Step by Step" would appear here.
After hearing Zhang Heng's explanation, everyone came to a realization. Some of the representatives even asked for their autographs, wanting to give them to their friends and family.
After signing the contract, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing left Yu Nan TV Station.
In the next few days, the ratings of "Step by Step" were getting better and better. Many people couldn't help but watch it at night after seeing the positive comments on the Internet.
At first glance, they were immediately attracted by the plot.
By the eighth episode, the ratings exceeded 15%. The few TV stations that failed in the bidding could not help but sigh.
This was especially true for Jibei TV Station's deputy director, Song Longqi. He was originally very optimistic about the show, but he didn't expect Yu Nan TV Station to take out all the advertising shares, causing him to fail on the verge of success.
The frustration in his heart couldn't be understood by others.
Fortunately, the director of Jibei TV Station didn't blame him. After all, they had already offered four million per episode. If that didn't work, then it was really not a fault.
However, Mango TV Station's Qian Bin wasn't so lucky.
He didn't know how the news that he offered two million per episode for "Step by Step" had spread all over Mango TV Station. Many people took it as a joke, which made Qian Bin very depressed.
At such a sensitive stage of competing for the director of Mango TV Station, he made such a big mistake, which had a great impact on him.
Even Director Ouyang called him to his office alone and talked to him for half an hour. Although he didn't blame him, Qian Bin could still hear that Director Ouyang was a little dissatisfied with him.
"Sigh, who would have thought that this TV series, which is completely played by young people, could achieve such ratings?"
The popularity of "Step by Step" also brought Xiao Yunhai a lot of trouble.
In the past, he only needed to put on some simple makeup and wear sunglasses to ensure that people outside couldn't recognize him.
Now, not to mention sunglasses, even if you wrapped your whole body tightly, you still couldn't escape people's eyes.
Zhao Wanqing wasn't much worse.
As the female lead of "Step by Step", Zhao Wanqing's role as Ruo Xi was even more popular than Xiao Yunhai.
Others like Lv Mengbin, Deng Yue, and the others also became popular. They were busy all day long and received so many jobs that their hands were sore. It was really painful and happy.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Xiao Yunhai's "Legend of Empresses in the Palace" was finally put on the filming schedule.
Lv Pengfei was looking forward to this movie the most. Xiao Yunhai just called him in the morning, and he rushed over from his hometown in the afternoon.
Xiao Yunhai asked his assistant Sima Qian to pick him up from the airport to his villa.
Xiao Yunhai said apologetically, "Brother Lv, I'm so sorry. I should have picked you up personally. It's just that it's not convenient for me to go out now. Those fans have sharp eyes. No matter how I dress up, they can recognize me immediately. I have no choice but to let Brother Qian pick you up. "
Xiao Yunhai was very grateful to Lv Pengfei. If he hadn't withstood the pressure from Cao Huaqiang for the "Fairy Tale" album MV, who knew how many waves it would have caused.
Lv Pengfei said with a smile, "I understand. Congratulations on the big sales of 'Startling Step by Step'. Hehe, 15% of the ratings. I don't know how many people's eyeballs fell to the ground. "
Xiao Yunhai gestured to Lv Pengfei to sit down and said, "Our 'Legend of Empresses in the Palace' will definitely not be worse than 'Startling Step by Step'."
When Lv Pengfei heard Xiao Yunhai mention "Legend of Empresses in the Palace", his eyes immediately lit up and said, "That's right. The script you've written is really amazing. The characters are vivid and the plot is full of ups and downs. As long as it's filmed, it will definitely attract the attention of those harsh audiences. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I'll do my best to film this movie. No matter how much money it costs, I don't care. Brother Lv, it's beneath your talent to be my assistant director. After all, I'm just a beginner and I still need your help with many things. "
Lv Pengfei said with a smile, "Don't worry. As long as there's anything you need me to do, I'll definitely do it. It's just that the group of people who eat with my subordinates … "
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "Just recruit them all. We have such a big crew. Can't we let them go? "
Lv Pengfei said happily, "That's great."
The two of them chatted for a long time about the crew.
Needless to say, this Lv Pengfei did indeed possess genuine ability, and everything he said had substance, causing Xiao Yunhai to benefit greatly.
At five o 'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Wanqing came back.
Ever since "Startling Step by Step" became popular, she was afraid that those unscrupulous reporters would take pictures of her and Xiao Yunhai living together, so she was very careful of her whereabouts.
In addition, she had to rush a lot of work every day, so the number of times she came over was much less.
When Lv Pengfei saw Zhao Wanqing come in, he quickly stood up and said, "Miss Zhao, hello. I'm Lv Pengfei."
He had some doubts in his heart. This Zhao Wanqing's relationship with Xiao Yunhai wasn't simple. She even had the key to the villa.
Zhao Wanqing didn't expect someone to come and said, "Hello, Mr. Lv."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Wan Qing, Brother Lv is the assistant director of 'Empresses in the Palace'. Brother Lv, let me formally introduce you to Wan Qing, my girlfriend. We're already living together. "
Lv Pengfei revealed an "as expected" expression and said, "Then I have to congratulate you."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Thank you. But Brother Lv, please don't spread our relationship."
Lv Pengfei nodded and said, "Don't worry. You're telling me this because you don't treat me as an outsider. I, Lv Pengfei, will definitely not do such a shameless thing. "
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Brother Lv, chat with Yunhai for a while. I'll go cook two dishes. You guys can have a good drink."
Lv Pengfei hurriedly said, "Please don't trouble yourself. My brethren are waiting for my answer. They're all extremely anxious now. This time, they can finally relax. Yunhai, when do you think I should go to Hengdian? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "The sooner the better. I'll go find actors for auditions in two days. As long as there aren't any accidents, I'll probably bring them over in less than a week. "
Lv Pengfei said, "Then I'll go to Hengdian tomorrow afternoon and book the set first. Then I'll contact the group leaders and find some good extras."
Xiao Yunhai nodded and took out a bank card from his pocket. He told Lv Pengfei the password and said, "Brother Lv, there's about five million in there. You have to spend the money that needs to be spent. I don't want some external factors to cause problems for the crew during filming."
Lv Pengfei smiled and said, "Don't worry, I understand. Do you have any paper here? I'll write a receipt. "
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "We don't need these things. I trust you."
Lv Pengfei shook his head and said solemnly, "Yunhai, I'm very grateful that you trust me so much. But work is work, and personal is personal. All the expenses spent on filming must be recorded clearly. No matter who it is, as long as they take money from the crew, they have to leave a receipt and explain where the money went. Otherwise, the crew might have big problems in the future. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I understand. Wan Qing, give Brother Lv a pen and paper. "
