416: Absolutely Amazing! Absolutely Amazing!

"This show will make you cry to death."

These were the comments of the one hundred viewers in the audience and the staff of Blueberry TV around Studio 2 after watching the recording of the first episode of "The Story of Time".

"I watched a lot of language programs and interview programs. I thought they were just old wine in new bottles and would not be emotionally resonant, but I never wanted to cry and become a tearful person."

"I also thought that this program was just to sell the popularity of Django and Hua Feng artists, and the content would not have any new tricks. Who knew that it turned the ordinary into something magical and touching?"

"Not only the stories of the celebrities are touching, but the stories of the selected audience are also very touching."

"Especially with the closing song, I was absolutely blown away and burst into tears."

"I feel like this show is going to be a hit. The stage effects, guest performances, soundtrack hosting, etc. are all top-notch."

"Removing the 'feeling', this is another phenomenal variety show after "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves" and "Brother Overcoming Troubles"!

…

After the recording ended, everyone was talking about it.

"Fortunately, we won it. If it were given to other satellite TV stations, the ratings in the first half of the year would be suppressed again." The station let out a long sigh of relief.

"The requirements of Wego Culture are contrary to the operation model of satellite TV, but it is understandable that in recent years, the audience has become more and more familiar with GG in variety shows, TV series, movies, and even GG when turning on the TV." The director of the program marketing center sighed lightly.

"What can be done about this? As the main source of funds for my country's TV media, GG revenue currently accounts for about 95% of the total revenue of various satellite TV stations. Until a new profit model emerges, we cannot do without GG." Director Why don't you know that the audience doesn't like to watch GG?

"However, I am a little surprised that you can agree to the conditions of Weigo Culture. After all, you are missing at least 200 million in GG fees." The director of the Program Marketing Center narrowed his eyes.

"Alas..." The director sighed and said: "The ratings and reputation of the three variety shows of "Running Man", "Ace Vs Ace", and "The Voice of China" are indeed not optimistic. They have been declining for three consecutive years. CCTV’s national-style variety shows and Elephant TV’s ethnic-style variety shows are on the rise. Mango TV’s lifestyle variety shows and Lychee TV’s dating variety shows are making steady progress. In addition, Dragon TV spent money this year to bring back “The Extreme”. "The original cast of the first season of "The Pick", we are surrounded by enemies from all sides, and we won "The Story of Time" not to give it to them."

How could the director of the program marketing center not understand the current competitive situation among satellite TV stations? He said: "I have made a little less money, but the ratings will never be low. The success of "The Story of Time" lies in the purpose of the program. In other words, it is the inner soul. Family, love, and friendship are familiar to everyone. Whether it is a child or now, there is a story that is deeply remembered. However, many people keep these things in their hearts. , never tell anyone.”

He analyzed it from a professional perspective and said: "Modern people's lives are filled to the brim with fast-food love and work. On the busy road, you will never stop and be curious about a person who lowers his head and plays with his mobile phone. On the other hand, if there really is When a person tells his story out loud, you will pay attention to it. "

Speaking of this, he smiled and continued: "The pace of modern life is like a bearing that cannot stop rotating. It is the only one that controls you, and you, the part on the machine, can only passively follow its rotation." Acting in its own way, "The Story of Time" captures this key point. People will always look for solace in their busy lives, so this program has laid a solid foundation since its establishment. "

The director nodded in agreement and said: "In short, the difficulties in the first half of the year have been overcome. As for the second half of the year..."

The director of the program marketing center smiled lightly, pointed at Jiang Ge who was talking to several artists backstage, and said: "You can continue to rely on him."

The director also looked over and said, "Are you talking about "Nirvana in Fire"?"

The director of the program marketing center nodded and said: "The investment in all aspects of this drama exceeds that of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and it will be an annual masterpiece."

The director looked solemn and said: "At least more than seven million per episode, not to mention the price. There are not a few people who are eyeing this piece of fat."

The director of the program marketing center smiled and said: "Whether we can get the moon or not is aside for now, but we have the advantage of being near the water, don't we?"

The director pondered for a moment and said, "Find an opportunity to go and talk to me."

While the two were talking, Jiang Ge was also chatting enthusiastically.

"Pianpian, you are simply in the wrong profession. Are you still a variety show producer? Hosting is your true calling!" Zhou Lingwei took Chu Pianpian's hand and said with a smile.

"I don't believe you." Chu Pianpian smiled lightly and said, "That's okay. I was so nervous on stage that I forgot which camera to look at several times."

Gu Yao on the side interjected: "I didn't even see where you were nervous, but it was your words that made me less nervous."

Mei Manlu followed: "Yes, Pianpian's voice has a magical power that can make people relax. I was already on the verge of collapse after telling the story. Pianpian came on stage to talk to me, which kept me from crying."

Zhou Lingwei smiled and said: "Look, Sister Gu Yao and Sister Mei both agreed."

Jiang Ge, who had been watching silently, also said: "Let me tell you, my hosting ability and style are not inferior to those of the first-line hosts."

Chu Pianpian's face turned red after being praised.

Not trying to flatter her, but she really did a great job.

In this kind of program, the role of the host is extremely important. It serves as a thread and connects the past and the next. Like a string of pearls, you don’t have the superficial glory, but it won’t work without you as the thread.

After the first phase of "The Story of Time" was completed, Jiang Ge, Zhou Lingwei and several leaders of Blueberry TV watched it and thought it was OK, so they set the broadcast date for March 7.

Coming out of the conference room, the director said to Jiang Ge: "Director Jiang, can we have a chat alone?"

"Okay." Jiang Ge responded with a smile, then turned to Zhou Lingwei and said, "Wait for me for a while."

Then he came to the director's office.

"Please take a seat."

"Drink tea."

The director personally served tea and water and was very enthusiastic.

Facing this series of actions, Jiang Ge was a little confused, and he didn't expect that something would come to him.

"I wonder if your company's "Nirvana in Fire" has been sold?" The director got straight to the point.

"No." Django likes to be direct.

"Can you sell it to us?" The director asked a redundant question.

As long as the money is in place, who can I sell to?

"Of course you can." Jiang Ge smiled.

"Then..." The director took a sip of tea and asked, "What's the price of a single episode?"

Faced with this problem, Jiang Ge was not so direct and said: "Well, our plan is to hold a movie viewing party in the company after the post-production is completed. At that time, we will invite major TV stations and major video websites to be in charge. People come to appreciate it.”

At this point, the director already understood that he was going to sell "Nirvana in Fire" by auction.

It seems that

He is very confident in the quality of this drama!

The purpose of "Django" is very simple, just to sell it at a good price. After all, so much money was invested, a total of 500 million, and so much time was spent. It took nearly half a year to shoot and three to four months of post-production.

It was too troublesome to make quotations, counter-offers and price comparisons one by one, so we simply called them all together and let them see the quality of the film - grab it!

Zhou Lingwei didn't wait for a few minutes when she saw Jiang Ge coming out and asked, "What does he want from you?"

Jiang Ge did not hide anything and said: "I want to buy "Nirvana in Fire"."

Zhou Lingwei said "Oh". In fact, she came up with the movie auction plan.

Django thought it was feasible and adopted it.

Zhou Lingwei held his hand and said as she walked: "Dragon TV officially announced at noon that the director and six members of the first season of "The Ultimate" will return, and it is scheduled to start broadcasting on March 7."

Jiang Ge smiled and said, "Oh, the car crashed."

Zhou Lingwei said: "I'm not afraid of crashing into a car!"

It can be heard from this sentence that she is still unhappy that her "Classic Chant" was taken away.

Jiang Ge took out his mobile phone and after a while, he analyzed: "The Douban score of the first season of "The Ultimate" is 2 points, the second season is 3 points, the third season is 6 points, the fourth season is 6 points, and the fifth season is 1 point. , the sixth season has a score of 6. What can be seen with the naked eye is that this show is not as good as the previous season, especially in the fifth season, it has fallen off a cliff, and it feels like a top variety show has turned into a dull variety.”

He put away his mobile phone and continued: "The reputation has plummeted so badly, the director has been changed and the men's gang has left. These two points are indeed the reasons why the audience does not buy it, but it is not the root cause. The main reason is that they are not as attentive and gorgeous as before. There are no interesting plots or brain-burning scripts, just a few members making jokes. To put it bluntly, if the guests invited were not big enough, this show would be just an 18th-tier variety show. "

The analysis was almost complete and he concluded: "So, even if the director and six members of the first season are retrieved, it may not be able to turn things around."

Zhou Lingwei nodded and said: "I am very optimistic about our "Story of Time". Even if they return to the top, they will still be competitive!"

Jiang Ge said "Yeah", then smiled and said: "We have all used our most powerful moves, how can we lose."

Zhou Lingwei asked doubtfully: "What is the most powerful move?"

Jiang Ge winked and said, "What a perfect couple!"

Zhou Lingwei blushed immediately and glared at him, but did not refute.

The second seasons of "Case Six", "Corpse" and "Forensic Qin Ming" were reviewed and approved. Because the scale was too large, they were not used for stars and were only broadcast online.

All three films were co-produced with Golden Shield Film and Television, especially "Serious Case Group Six", in which all the cases were adapted from real cases.

There are 28 episodes of "Case Six", 9 episodes of "Corpse", and 20 episodes of the second season of "Forensic Qin Ming". They were bought by the wealthy Penguin Video in a package for 6.5 billion, and are scheduled to be released on March 17, April 17, It starts broadcasting on May 17.

"As expected of a goose factory, rich!"

"Since I have bought it, why not broadcast it together?"

"If you air it together, you can cheat one-month membership. If you air it separately, you can cheat three-month members!"

"As long as you can watch it, it's a waste of drama."

"Ah ah ah, I want to watch the second season of "Forensic Qin Ming". How did Qin Ming find Q!"

"Wait, more than three months will go by in the blink of an eye."

…

The movies and TV series of the White Night Universe have developed to this day. What you can watch is not only the reasoning and solving of crimes, but also the mysterious man Q who runs through all series.

This is like Thanos in the first phase of the Marvel Universe, whetting your appetite and making you watch every series.

at the same time.

Mo Lan flew to Country M again with a large group of people and started filming Fast Action Episode 23, "Suicide Squad" and "I Am Legend".

In Hengdian, Huang Tao's "White Nights 2" and Zhou Mulong's "A Chinese Ghost Story 2: Human Road" also held opening ceremonies to officially start filming.

Huafeng Media's 2025 film and television drama shooting plan is in progress.

Jiang Ge recorded the second episode of "The Story of Time" in Studio 2 of the Blueberry Satellite TV Building. The theme of this episode is "Mother". The Chinese artists are Qin Shiyue, Liu Xuexin, and Zhang Jun. The special guest is director Zhang Shucheng.

After a few hours, the recording ended successfully.

Backstage.

"Thank you, Director Zhang, for your help." Jiang Ge expressed his gratitude to Zhang Shucheng.

"Dr. Jiang, you're welcome." Zhang Shucheng smiled slightly and said, "I should be the one thanking you for allowing me to appear on such a good program, where I can express the regrets and guilt about my mother that have been hidden in my heart for many years and untie them. A knot in my heart.”

Jiang Ge felt that this topic was a bit heavy, so he changed the subject calmly: "Director Zhang, I read that there is news on the Internet that "Dragon City Wings 2" has been completed?"

Zhang Shucheng nodded and said, "Yes, it's finished."

He is very envious of Jiang Ge's efficiency. "Dragon City 2" went through such things as investing in actors, the heroine changing the script, the hero changing the filming schedule, etc. It took a full year and nine months from project establishment to finalization. .

Since he mentioned this matter, he then asked: "I just wanted to tell you. Does what I said last time still count?"

Jiang Ge smiled and said, "I've already prepared the song, but I'm afraid Director Zhang won't like it."

Zhang Shucheng was speechless for a moment.

Be particular!

So particular!

This man is really capable, he keeps his word, and he actually gets things done!

Jiang Ge was not just saying something for the occasion, but he was really prepared and recorded. He immediately took out his mobile phone and said, "Listen?"

Zhang Shucheng pulled him down and didn't know what to say. He was so grateful that he kept repeating "thank you".

The success of "Dragon City Flying General 1" is partly due to the theme song "A Bridge of Fate".

The last time he asked for a song at the Golden Rooster Awards Gala, he thought it was Jiang Ge who was just saying polite words, but he didn't expect that the other party would keep it in his heart.

Suddenly, music started playing.

Just from the prelude, you can hear three flavors: a sad and majestic atmosphere, a majestic momentum, and a sad, angry and desolate tone.

"Looking north from the mountains and rivers as the wolf smoke rises"

dragon flag roll

Horse neighs

The sword energy is like frost..."

Lin Yu's high-pitched voice was like a spear that could pierce through any space, making Zhang Shucheng's ears tremble.

This song...

He swallowed involuntarily, the exciting rhythm caused adrenaline to surge.

The theme song Jiang Ge chose for "Dragon City Wings 2" was also the song chosen for the protagonist Wei Qing. It was Tu Honggang's "Serving the Country with Loyalty".

The content of this song reflects the military life of Yue Fei, the famous anti-Jin Dynasty general in the Southern Song Dynasty, praises Yue Fei's strong patriotism spirit of serving the country with loyalty, and embodies the national sentiment and national contradictions of the era in which Yue Fei lived. It can also be used on Wei Qing.

At that time, it was used as the ending song of the Gulong martial arts drama "The Sword of the Third Master" starring He Zhonghua, Yu Feihong and others. It won the top ten golden songs of 1999 in the Chinese song rankings and the 99th China Music Special Recommendation Award for Outstanding Songs in the Chinese Charts. award.

Zhang Shucheng was completely immersed in the song. Every lyric and every note would bring up a scene from "Dragon City Wings 2".

Slowly, he looked at Jiang Ge, his eyes full of surprise, confusion and admiration. How could this be done? I was able to write such a highly fitting theme song without even reading the script.

How did he know that Jiang Ge had the skill of [Grand Master Director Knowledge] and had outstanding screenwriting ability. He could guess it from the title of the film.

Again.

The song "Serve the Country with Loyalty" is very versatile, not to say 100%, but at least it is suitable for 90% of costume war movies.

When the words "The great China wants to congratulate us from all quarters" came out, Zhang Shucheng stood up directly, looking very excited and said: "Absolutely, absolutely!"
