When Xia Chengfeng heard Zheng Quanyou's words, he was completely stunned.
The phone slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a "bang", even the battery fell out.
"How is this possible? He's just a newcomer. How can he make such a show?
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Tian Junhao looked at Xia Chengfeng, whose face was getting more and more ferocious, and said in a deep voice, "Young Master Xia, is the rating of 'Empresses in the Palace' very high?"
Xia Chengfeng nodded, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. "The average rating is 6.4%, and the highest rating is 9.1%."
Hearing this result, Tian Junhao took a deep breath.
After returning to China, he did some in-depth research on Hua Xia's film and television industry. Therefore, he was very clear about what a TV series with a rating of 9.1% meant.
Looking at Hua Xia's film and television series in recent years, there were only a few that could become legends. Generally, a TV series with a rating of 3% was very good.
For an actor, being able to participate in a legendary TV series was already a very good resume. But Xiao Yunhai unexpectedly participated in two TV series, "Step by Step" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", both of which had a rating of more than 20%.
Now, he had written, directed and acted in "Empresses in the Palace", and the premiere had a rating of 9%. No one dared to say how high the ratings would be in the following episodes.
"Lost. "Chu River and Han Border" has lost before the battle. Even if it can bring some impact to "Empresses in three days, the general trend is irreversible."
Tian Junhao sighed in his heart, then looked at Xia Chengfeng, who was in a daze, and comforted him. "Young Master Xia, don't worry. This is only the first episode. Maybe there will be a big reversal in the second episode. "
Even Tian Junhao himself did not believe this sentence, but when it reached Xia Chengfeng's ears, it seemed to become his last life-saving straw.
"That's right. The second episode after the advertisement is an important indicator to test whether the audience likes it or not. It is also the key to a TV series. I don't believe that a first-year artist can turn the sky upside down. "Xia Chengfeng's eyes were red as he gritted his teeth and said.
In the data monitoring room of Jibei TV Station, the atmosphere was quite solemn. Everyone was waiting for the moment when the ratings broke through 10%.
At this time, the second episode of "Empresses in the Palace" had already been broadcast for ten minutes. It went from 6% to 9% in an instant after the commercial break and then stabilized. Overall, it was still on the rise.
This allowed everyone's hearts to relax.
As long as there was no major drop in the second episode, it meant that the show was very attractive to the audience. Generally, there would not be any more problems.
All that was left was to see how far it would develop.
Another five minutes passed. Xiao Li, the monitor, suddenly stood up and waved his hands in excitement. He turned to the crowd and shouted, "Legend! Legend! Legend! Legend has appeared on our TV station!"
Hearing Xiao Li's words, Shen Minghui, who had just picked up the teacup and was about to drink tea, shook his arm and the hot tea splashed onto his leg.
But he turned a deaf ear to it, as if he had lost consciousness. He sat there stupidly and mumbled, "Our Jibei TV Station has a legendary battle pet warrior?"
"Haha, we also have a legendary battle pet warrior!" Shen Minghui suddenly stood up, stretched out his arms, and shouted loudly.
Song Longqi was also excited. The corners of his mouth were trembling unconsciously. After a while, he shouted, "Hahaha, our TV station has succeeded!"
The two station heads, who had been as calm as mountains just a moment ago, suddenly turned into two crazy people the moment the ratings passed 10%. This gave Yu Yuexian a shock.
She pulled Xiao Yunhai, who was full of smiles, and pointed at the two crazy people. She asked, "Are they okay?"
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Don't worry, they're just too excited. Back then, the higher-ups of Yunan TV Station were even better than them. "
Yu Yuexian nodded and said, "I see. Haha, Director Xiao, congratulations. Your first TV show as a director has exceeded 10%. You're the first in the film and television industry. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Congratulations to you too. Now that 'Legend of Empresses in the Palace' has achieved such results, I can finally take a breather. "
Yu Yuexian smiled and said, "What's wrong? Director Xiao, are you feeling pressured too? "
Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said, "How can I not be? If I had invested the money myself, winning or losing wouldn't matter to me. I wouldn't be too burdened. But Sister Yu, you trusted me so much that you invested 200 million yuan at once. If I don't get good results, how can I explain it to you? I'm afraid I won't have the face to see you in the future. "
Yu Yuexian smiled and said, "At least you have some conscience."
At this moment, Shen Minghui and Song Longqi recovered from their extreme excitement. Thinking about how they had lost their composure just now, the two of them were a little embarrassed.
Shen Minghui said, "We've made a fool of ourselves. Our Jibei TV Station hasn't had a show that broke 10% ratings in ten years, so we were a little too excited. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I can understand how Director Shen and Deputy Director Song feel. Haha, it seems like we've won the bet on the contract. "
Song Longqi nodded and said, "That's right. If the ratings exceed 10%, we'll give you 80% of the advertising fees. Tomorrow, our TV station will invite some advertisers to negotiate. One second of advertising will cost at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan. 'Empresses in the Palace' has a total of 76 episodes. Based on the calculation of ten minutes of advertising per episode, just the first broadcast alone will bring you 1.6 billion yuan in revenue. It's really a small investment and a huge profit. "
Yu Yuexian heard it and said in surprise, "That's a lot."
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "This is just the first round. There will be a second, third, and online video revenue in the future. I estimate that we'll earn about 1 billion yuan. Sister Yu, you invested 200 million yuan, so you'll get 30% of the revenue. That is to say, after deducting the investment, you'll earn at least 600 million yuan. "
Yu Yuexian's expression changed and she said in disbelief, "I heard from Yunhai that this show would make me 500 million yuan. I thought he was bragging, but I didn't expect it to be true. No wonder there are so many film and television companies now. This is too profitable. "
Zhao Wanqing said, "Sister Yu, a TV series like 'Empresses in the Palace' is very rare. It's already very good to have one in a year. Moreover, we used the VAM contract this time and settled with advertising fees. That's why we earned such a shocking profit. Other TV series, even if they have the same ratings, won't earn so much. Speaking of which, we should be taking advantage of Director Shen and the others. "
Shen Minghui laughed and said, "We're very willing to let you take advantage of us. I'm not afraid of being laughed at, but although Jibei TV Station only got 20% of the revenue, it's already comparable to our total revenue for the past six months. Therefore, we should be thanking you. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Alright, everyone, don't be so polite. This is a true win-win situation. After this episode ends, how about we celebrate together? "
Shen Minghui said, "Alright, no problem. I'll be the host tonight and treat everyone to our Jibei's specialty snacks. "
Soon, the second episode of "Empresses in the Palace" finished broadcasting.
The average rating was 7.8% and the highest rating was 15.1%. This was the result of "Empresses in the Palace".
Xiao Yunhai had just gotten the ratings statistics in his hands when Wang Guoan called him.
"Yunhai, how's the rating? I saw your homepage. It said that the first episode broke 9%. What about now? Did it break 10%? "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Teacher Wang, please remove the last word."
When Wang Guoan heard that, he laughed and said, "That's great. If the first episode can break 10%, then it might really break the ratings of your 'Step by Step'. "
Xiao Yunhai joked, "Teacher Wang, can you be a little more generous? My goal now is to break 30% of the ratings, not some 'Step by Step'. "
Wang Guoan laughed and said, "Really? Kid, don't brag. Oh right, you said that the ratings broke 10%. What's the exact number? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "The average rating is 7.8% and the highest rating is 15.1%. It's not too far from 30%."
Wang Guoan said in disbelief, "What? 15% in the first two episodes? That's unbelievable. If that's the case, there's really a 30% chance. That's great, Yunhai. Kid, you've created a miracle. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "No, we've created a miracle together."
After ending the call with Wang Guoan, Xiao Yunhai received calls from Yao Wenyuan, Liu Guohua, Lv Pengfei, Zhou Yun, Huang Bo, Wang Cheng, and the others. When they heard about the ratings of "Empresses in the Palace", they all laughed heartily.
Especially Lv Pengfei, who was the most emotional. He was crying on the phone, and he couldn't help but thank Xiao Yunhai.
As the assistant director of "Empresses in the Palace", Lv Pengfei had made a beautiful comeback this time. Perhaps the audience only knew about Xiao Yunhai and didn't know who Lv Pengfei was, but that wasn't the case in the industry.
With such an invincible resume, Lv Pengfei's path as a director could be said to be unimpeded. Tian Hua Entertainment couldn't stop him even if they wanted to.
Moreover, with the video in Xiao Yunhai's hands, even if Cao Huaqiang was given ten guts, he wouldn't dare to make things difficult for Lv Pengfei.
Perhaps Lv Pengfei would receive a notice from the company soon.
After answering a round of calls, Xiao Yunhai let out a deep breath. He couldn't help but feel a little happy when he saw that Zhao Wanqing and Yu Yuexian were still busy.
At that moment, Xiao Yunhai suddenly remembered that his future father-in-law hadn't been notified yet.
Xiao Yunhai didn't dare delay and quickly called Wang Mingsheng. What a joke. That was his future father-in-law. He had to suck up to him.
"What's the matter? Why are both your and Wan Qing's lines busy? "Wang Mingsheng asked.
"Uncle, you're late. I just received a lot of calls and they're all lined up. Look, I just came to an end here, and then I called you. Wan Qing has the most actresses on her side. I don't think I can finish talking in a short time. "
Wang Mingsheng said, "They're all asking about the ratings of Empresses in the Palace, right? Your auntie saw it just now and gave a very good review. How is it? The ratings aren't bad, right? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "It's alright. The average rating is 7.8% and the highest rating is 15.1%. It's considered to have achieved the lowest target. "
Wang Mingsheng laughed when he heard that and said, "If 15% is the lowest target, then what's the highest target?"
Xiao Yunhai said with lofty sentiments: "30%."
Wang Mingsheng smiled and said, "Then I'll have to wait and see."
After the call with Wang Mingsheng, Xiao Yunhai announced the ratings of Empresses in the Palace on his homepage.
Instantly, Xiao Yunhai's fans exploded.
"I told you, Empresses in the Palace would become a legend tonight. It's just as I expected."
"Yun Huang is too awesome. The director's first show broke 10% in the ratings. This is a miracle."
"I have to say, Empresses in the Palace is really good. After just two episodes, I'm already mesmerized by it. There's nothing to say. I strongly support it. "
"The actors in Empresses in the Palace are really good at acting. Not to mention those award-winning actors and actresses, even the normal supporting actors performed very well. It's too awesome. "
"Hehe, 15.1% viewership rating is really amazing. I want to interview Tan Dapao now. I wonder what he'll say. "
"Let's go, let's go to his homepage and tell him that Yun Huang's Empresses in the Palace got 15% in the ratings. Let's see what he has to say. "
Xiao Yunhai had nothing to do, so he opened Tan Yong's homepage and looked at it.
When he saw it, Xiao Yunhai couldn't help but laugh.
It turned out that in Tan Yong's comment section, Xiao Yunhai's fans had posted tens of thousands of congratulatory posts.
"Congratulations to Yun Huang's first three-in-one show, Empresses in the Palace, for getting 15% in the ratings. I hope he can continue to do well."
"Congratulations to Empresses in the Palace for becoming a legend. Yun Huang, you can do it. Yun Huang is invincible."
"Congratulations to Empresses in the Palace for getting 15% in the ratings. It has successfully broken the 1% that Teacher Tan said."
"Congratulations to Yun Huang …"
This was probably the most special way to congratulate someone in the film industry.
It was Xiao Yunhai's show that had high ratings, but his fans congratulated him on his homepage. This had never happened before in the industry.
It was estimated that Tan Yong would be furious if he saw it.
In the hotel room, when Xia Chengfeng learned from Zheng Quanyou about the ratings of the second episode of Empresses in the Palace, he jumped up as if he had been pricked by a needle and snapped, "How much?"
After Zheng Quanyou said it again, Xia Chengfeng was strangely quiet for a moment, and then he used all his strength and smashed his mobile phone against the wall. The mobile phone was smashed to pieces.
Then he seemed to have lost all his strength and fell on the chair.
He looked at Tian Junhao, who was as calm as water, and laughed at himself. "Young Master Tian, do you think I'm stupid? I even overestimated myself and wanted to snipe a legendary TV show. Hehe, now, not only did I not defeat others, but I also put myself in a pit. It's really self-inflicted. "
"Hehe, the premiere of Empresses in the Palace can exceed 15%. Will the ratings be higher? 20%? 25%? It was still that daunting 30%. "Chu He Han Boundary" is finished. It hasn't been broadcast, and the defeat is already set. "
