Chapter 212: Four Beauties From the End of the World? Nanjiao, Beigu, Zhongwei, Yang

After the finale of "Eastern Palace" was broadcast, the average ratings of the whole drama stopped at 3.89, and the market share was close to 20%.

Although it was a pity that it did not break 4 in the end, this is the work that is second only to "My Love from the Star" in the ratings of local satellite TV in recent years after the ratings statistics method became more scientific and rigorous.

Even though it is just the beginning of February, "Eastern Palace" does not dare to boast that it has the 2011 national satellite TV ratings champion in its pocket, but it is definitely a strong contender.

Even as CCTV's ratings statistics method has begun to change this year, the data calculation method is similar to that of satellite TV, and "Eastern Palace" may not be unable to compete for the true [national ratings champion].

In addition to the eye-catching ratings of the first broadcast, the online broadcast data of "Eastern Palace" is also very outstanding.

As of the broadcast of the finale, the exclusive broadcast volume of Sohu has exceeded 1 billion+, and it is still rising rapidly at a very fast speed.

It is said that Youku, LeTV and even Qiyi are negotiating with Sohu for the distribution of the copyright of "Eastern Palace".

Sohu spent 35 million to buy "Eastern Palace", which is a considerable expense for Sohu.

You should know that at this time, the so-called VIP membership services of various video websites are still in the trial stage.

People are used to free things. If you charge randomly, people will watch Qvod.

Therefore, the main revenue of various video websites is still based on traffic and advertising.

At present, Sohu has reaped the biggest dividend of the popularity of the first broadcast of "Eastern Palace". There are certainly many benefits to mastering the exclusive copyright of "Eastern Palace", but distributing the copyright can also make a profit.

It depends on how Boss Zhang decides.

However, from Wei Yang's perspective, he naturally hopes that Sohu will distribute it. Anyway, he has made his money. Multi-platform broadcasting will definitely be more influential than Sohu alone.

The brilliant data of "Eastern Palace" on TV and the Internet also made this drama a hit drama at the beginning of 2011. It not only successfully dominated the screen, but also triggered countless discussions.

As for the finale of "Eastern Palace", 5,000 related posts appeared on Tianya in a short period of time.

Keywords such as [Qu Xiaofeng commits suicide] and [Li Chengyin, who values ​​the country more than the beauty] have become popular search terms on Baidu, and [The ending of "Eastern Palace"] directly tops the Baidu search index list.

Regarding the suicide of the heroine Qu Xiaofeng, the audience and netizens are all very upset. The Weibo and Tieba are full of reluctance and pity for this character.

As for the hero Li Chengyin, there are three factions.

One faction accuses the hero of being ungrateful and a scumbag, and the death of the heroine has not affected him.

One faction supports the hero's decision, which is what a qualified emperor should do. Besides, the hero is not a scumbag. He has always loved the heroine and has never married. He is just more worried about the people of the world.

There is also a centrist faction, who thinks that the hero and the heroine are not wrong. The core of this drama itself is a tragedy, which is about the sense of fate.

The hero and heroine are true love, but their identities, circumstances and responsibilities push them to the final ending step by step.

But no matter how fierce the quarrel is, it is undeniable that the role of Li Chengyin in "Eastern Palace" has been established.

Cold and cruel, dark and sinister, he does everything he can, but he cares about the people and loves beautiful women, and there is always a soft spot in his heart.

This kind of character with great contrast and contradiction, as well as a bit of loneliness and sadness, is very charming.

Even those viewers who cursed Li Chengyin may not hate him, but they are more heartbroken for the heroine and cannot accept the ending that the heroine and heroine did not end up together.

There is no doubt that this is another ace role in Wei Yang's career after Professor Gu.

Perhaps the influence on a large scale is weaker than that of Professor Gu, but he has more die-hard fans and a considerable number of male fans.

It is not an exaggeration at all. After the explosion of "Eastern Palace", someone held a ranking vote for ancient costume male gods on Hupu, the base camp of straight men.

The first place is Bai Gu from "The Return of the Condor Heroes", and the second place is Jiao Enjun from "The Lotus Lantern". Wei Yang relied on the momentum of "Eastern Palace" to come from behind and beat Zheng Shaoqiu from "Chu Liuxiang" to win the third place.

In the previous Tianya Forum selection of [Nan Jiao Bei Gu, Tianya Four Beauties], there was some controversy about who was better, Wei Yang's Chonglou and Huo Jianhua's Xu Changqing, and Wei Yang had the overall advantage.

Now many Tianya netizens suggest that the Tianya Four Beauties can kick Wei Yang out.

After all, the selection of the Four Beauties is for supporting roles. Now Wei Yang has the charming and handsome protagonist Li Chengyin in "Eastern Palace", so he should be listed alongside [Nan Jiao Bei Gu], just add [Zhong Wei Yang] at the end.

And the majority of female fans also gave high praise to Wei Yang's costume style this time.

Wei Yang's costume styles in "Eastern Palace" are about 40 to 50 sets.

In the early stage, he was clean and refreshing, sunny and cheerful. In the middle stage, when the prince was fighting for the throne, he was gentle and elegant, capable and shrewd. In the later stage, he defeated the enemy repeatedly, solemn and majestic, and finally ascended to the throne. The majestic loneliness of the emperor, the style is diverse and the temperament is changeable.

Especially in the later period, Wei Yang's styling is mainly dark black, or gorgeous and exquisite, or solemn and deep, which can be described as a dragon and a phoenix, handsome and unparalleled.

Posters and stills about Li Chengyin are all over the Internet, and many fans are shouting that they know who the handsome emperors are when they read online articles in the future.

There is even a well-known joke on Weibo - why can't the heroine Qu Xiaofeng kill Li Chengyin, because she can't bear to see his face.

There are also some unpromising people who say that Qu Xiaofeng is already firm enough, and they may have become queens obediently.

Two consecutive hits and roles that attracted a lot of fans also made Wei Yang the most popular young actor in the mainland and even in the Chinese language.

Variety shows, scripts, endorsements, commercial activities and other miscellaneous invitations bombarded Blue Whale and Lei Chun’s phone………

…

Baoshan, Blue Whale

Wei Yang, who had only been in his hometown for a few days, was urged to end his annual leave by a series of calls. He looked at the report in his hand with a bitter hatred, but soon after, a smile appeared on his face little by little.

"Eastern Palace" became a hit, and the second and third round broadcast rights, DVD copyrights and even overseas copyrights were almost scrambled.

In South Korea alone, three TV stations or film companies came, which is understandable. He was very popular in South Korea. Now "Eastern Palace" is a hit again, which will attract a rush.

What makes Wei Yang happiest is that compared with "My Love from the Star", he can only sell it at a bargain price.

Although it can't be sold at a sky-high price due to the market, the room for negotiation has been greatly increased.

At that time, the total revenue of overseas copyrights of "My Love from the Star" was about 10 million. Now, "Eastern Palace" will at least double or even more.

And the second and third rounds of copyrights, patch ads, DVD copyrights, copyright licensing fees and other miscellaneous revenues.

The financial aspects were calculated uniformly, and the estimated revenue should be between 55 million and 65 million.

This price is much higher than the original "My Love from the Star".

However, it is understandable that the market is booming, prices are already rising, and Blue Whale is no longer the same as before. After several hits, the brand is becoming more and more valuable.

Not to mention that the drama "Eastern Palace" has more episodes and greater costs, so the price is naturally more expensive.

Wei Yang calculated it himself. The first round of "Eastern Palace" was 120 million + 35 million online broadcasts, which is 155 million.

Now other aspects are just estimates, so let's take a compromise, 25 million + 60 million, plus 155 million, which is 240 million yuan.

Not to mention the movie "Eastern Palace", which greatly increased his fame and influence, brought out a popular young actress Na Zha + a new young actress Rou Ba, and subsequently increased the Blue Whale Company and its works.

"Hahaha!"

Across the office, Hu Ya heard the hearty and joyful laughter of Boss Wei.

Although it is not clear why the boss is laughing, as a secretary, the happier the boss is, the better life will be.

Wei Yang was happy in the office for a long time, and before he could figure out how to go out and spend money, he was blocked by Lei Chun with a pile of documents.

"How many times have I told you, don't take so many jobs for me, I don't have time to spend the money."

Wei Yang had a headache when he saw these work arrangements, and Lei Chun couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I don't want to bother you, but some of them can't be pushed away, some pay too much, and some projects are more important, so I can't help but report to you."

Wei Yang also knew that sometimes Lei Chun couldn't be blamed, so he asked him to introduce it.

There is no need to say much about activities and interviews. Many of them are official or the organizers have backgrounds, and they can't help but give face.

In terms of endorsements, Wei Yang has a lot of endorsements now, but even so, there are still countless brands and businesses that want to work with him.

Who makes him so popular and has so many fans!

Lei Chun and his team carefully selected five or six people who met the requirements, hoping that Wei Yang would select the best.

Wei Yang glanced at the price, and it was no wonder that Lei Chun was tempted. He couldn't help but dazzled when he saw it.

Not much, just three endorsements, enough for him to buy a few more large flats next to the Huangpu River...

In addition, Wei Yang looked at the script invitations again, which were mainly movies.

Compared with last year, there were more supporting roles in commercial films, and now there are many commercial films that directly give him the leading role.

The more familiar ones are "The Four" directed by Guangguang, "So Young" directed by Zhao, and "Tiny Times" directed by Guo Xiaosi.

"???"

Wei Yang was a little confused. He could understand the first two films, but what about this one?

Lei Chun looked at the information: "Guo Xiaosi directed and acted in the film. It is said that he particularly admires you. You two are both talented people. If you join forces, it will be very popular."

The two major writers born in the 1980s are Han Han and Guo Xiaosi. Because Wei Yang is also a writer, some people also list him as one of the three major writers born in the 1980s.

From the marketing level, Guo Xiaosi + Wei Yang are indeed enough to attract attention.

"Forget about this. I am not interested in his youth pain literature. But please ask me if they need investment. Feicui Xia has spare money."

Boss Wei doesn't like "Tiny Times", but making money is another matter.

This series can be shot in four parts. Guo Xiaosi and several production companies have made a lot of money. Boss Wei also wants to share a piece of the pie with the various financial backers behind him.

From the current point of view, although Wei Yang's status and fame can already be the first in commercial films, the main companies that look for him are companies like Guangguang that are trying to transform from distribution to production and new directors.

There is no other way. All the projects of companies and big directors are watched by a group of people. When the right opportunity comes, they will definitely give priority to their own people. Besides, Wei Yang has not proved his box office ability, so he will not easily take the role of the first.

However, some commercial productions that are not the first have also approached him.

Cheng Long's "The Chinese Zodiac" is the second assistant, which is the role played by the original Korean actor Kwon Sang-woo. "Painted Skin 2" also extends an olive branch to him, and he can choose any role below Chen Kun.

Even Bona produced, Wang Pangzi directed, and it was rumored that Huang Xiaoming's "Big Shanghai" had been selected, and also sent an invitation, asking him to partner with Chow Yun Fat.

This is already a very high starting point, and there is even hope that he can replace Huang Xiaoming, which shows how popular Wei Yang is now.

However, Wei Yang himself was not moved: "I will decline all these, and the company will prepare for the first movie after the new drama."
