Chapter 18 "Conquest" broadcasts

"Conquest" is about to be broadcast, Xin Baoyuan passed the review at a god-like speed. Then, the second part of "Return of the Condor Heroes", and few large-scale productions are willing to fight with Qiong Yao's end of the drama. A man named Liu Huaqiang appeared on TV with a smile on his face in a questioning voice.

The man was familiar with everyone's attention, as if he was born there, and he had infinite charm when standing there. His superb acting skills and subtle expressions were like ridicule of the technique of hype, and it was like proving to everyone that he could be as star-studded as if he didn't need hype.

He became popular, as if it was overnight, but before that night, no one knew that in order to be admitted to the Beijing Film Academy, he would eat saunas in the flower shed every day, and kept running around in the Film Academy to lose weight, standing in the hotel corridor and being treated as a lunatic, he kept talking!

The man appeared on the screen so domineeringly, without shouting loudly, but everyone couldn't forget him. His name was Sun Honglei.

He doesn't need hype. Even if a similar hype incident happens to him one day, it must be his intention.

In addition to Sun Honglei's superb performance, the plot of "Conquest" is also unaware of the fact that it is difficult to look away. The investigation triggered by the gun case involves gangsters, and the testimony of these gangsters connects the underground society of Hengzhou, and characters such as Ding Guan, Lao Hu, Liu Huaqiang, etc. become so real.

Unfortunately, in 1999, the audience seemed not willing to evaluate acting skills. At that time, most audiences evaluated the quality of a TV series by the plot, such as the TV series was so beautiful and touching... The TV series was so cool, so funny, etc. Of course, there was no audience's ability to comment on screenwriters during this period, and these topics were generally only spread in the circle.

However, at this time, some people have mastered the hype skills. For example, in "My Fair Princess", Zhou Jie fell off a horse and was injured and was on the pages of major newspapers.

Well, there are still some people who are planning to hype and use hype to create a trend. Once this method appears, there will definitely be people following the trend, such as Zhao Baogang, who was rejected by Shao Yingxiong. This does not mean that who is good or bad, nor does it mean that it is to prove that who is smart or stupid. This is just a matter of choice, that's all. However, this time, "Conquer" seems very quiet from the time of passing the review to the broadcast, and it is a bit surprisingly quiet...

It’s not that Zhao Baogang is unwilling to use the ‘Li Xinyue’ incident, but mainly because Shao Yingxiong does not cooperate. If this wave is really hyped up, no positive character will end in the end. The whole hype is divided into a wounded girl and a criminal who cheats maliciously. Then everyone’s views on this TV series are negative. Once this negative emotion ripples, I am afraid that even if the relevant departments turn a blind eye and leave the review of “Conquest”, they will pull the TV series back and shoot it when it is played. The relevant departments will never allow a TV series with a ‘gangster nature’ and such a great negative energy to have a huge impact on the mainland. Films such as “Young and Dangerous” and “God of Gambling” have greatly increased the crime rate in the mainland, which has made everyone feel fearful of the influence of film and television works.

So, Xinbaoyuan has only one move left!

Almost a week before the airing of "Conquest", major newspapers had strong doubts about the "Conquest" film. They were not criticizing the TV series "Conquest" that had not been aired, but were always wondering whether "Conquest" would have an impact on society!

"Conquest", another theme similar to "Young and Dangerous", will this theme make young people continue to have some ** behavior?

Once "Conquer" is aired, who is responsible for the social impact it causes?

Has no one ever thought about whether the crime rate will increase after "Conquer" appears on major satellite TV stations?

A series of questions were asked, and Zhao Baogang used all his connections to ask people to publicize them on entertainment news programs of local stations. This kind of publicity seems ambiguous. The clips obtained by entertainment news programs of local stations are basically classic clips of Liu Huaqiang. All publicity methods do not mention any good topics of the TV series "Conquest", but only deeply connect it with "Young and Dangerous". This is a strategy. After arousing the audience's strong curiosity, people will watch it with questions. TV series "Conquest" with a detective nature can most attract such audiences!

Those who see those promotional videos will definitely not think about social impact. The first idea is that the man wearing a black Zhongshan suit with a gun on the screen is too domineering, and Liu Hua is so domineering that it is unacceptable.

If you have to say that there are any disadvantages of this kind of publicity method, it is that the investment is too large. At least the cost of being published in major newspapers and entertainment news is much more expensive than the incident of "Li Xinyue".

No one knows how much resources Xinbaoyuan Company has used for this promotion, but some clues have appeared in some internal conversations within Xinbaoyuan Company. It is said that Zhao Baogang invested no less than the investment in the entire play!

In 1999, as long as you spend a lot of money on publicity, it will definitely produce results. Otherwise, the overwhelming advertising effect of "brain idiot" healthy drinks will not be significantly difficult to add up in a few years.

"Hey! Did you see yesterday's entertainment news? Liu Huaqiang is so awesome. He held Feng Biao on the table with a gun... Oh, I can't say it, it's so shocking."

"Tsk, I not only watched entertainment news, but also knew which day it will be broadcast!"

"No, how do you know which day it will be broadcast? Why didn't I hear the host mention it?"

"You idiot, this is the problem that the host mentioned in the final prize-winning bet. At the beginning of the show, "Conquer" caused widespread doubts in the entire society, etc. Didn't it mean the broadcast time?"

“When will it be broadcast?”

"Want to know? Then you have to treat me to a meal!"

There are endless dialogues on the streets, and people want to know what the TV series that is very similar to "Young and Dangerous" looks like, and what the domineering man can bring the entire TV series to.

For a time, the impact of the second part of "My Fair Princess" seemed to have weakened a lot. The reason why people forget about a TV series I have watched too quickly was that they found a new source of attraction. "Conquer" has now become this source of attraction.

Over the past week, the discussion about "Conquest" became increasingly fierce, and some columnists even fought over the trailer of the TV series in the column.

Finally, with the huge investment in publicity expenses, "Conquer" was launched in a boiling public opinion.

There are certain requirements when producing companies sell the copyright of TV series. First of all, whether TV series should be on the star, and whether it can be on the star. Generally, TV series with small investments basically do not need to be considered on the star. Such investors still hope to be broadcast all over the country. If the first round of broadcasting is good, and the second round of TV stations will only be on the star when the exclusive copyright is bought out. This is the case. With the ability of Zhao Baogang and Xin Baoyuan, it is okay to make "Conquer" a star. However, the coverage rate is relatively low, and it is difficult to go to TV stations with relatively large coverage rates. For example, CC Channel, Mango TV stations like Mango generally only buy exclusives, which can not only ensure coverage rate but also widen the ratings gap with other TV stations. The key question is, will CCTV and Mango buy out the copyright of "Conquer" based on their relationship?

It's difficult!

No one will make up his mind to invest for the sake of relationships, so it is not business.

Therefore, "Conquer" was not released in the first round of broadcast, and several TV stations jointly bought out the copyright. The first round of broadcast is a wide net. Although the cost is not high, it is very important to make a famous mark.

Shao Yingxiong's computer once recorded the achievements of "Conquest" in history. It is said that "Conquest" broke the record of Beijing TV in the first month of broadcasting, and promoted the previous promotion of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Return of the Pearl 3", even the sea salt drama "Then What Save You, My Lover" that has been popular has been suppressed.

And in reality...

“YE!!!”

A cheer came from the Beijing TV director's broadcast room. On the third day of the conquest, it became a dark horse, soaring all the way, from 7% to 11%!

What's even more terrifying is still behind!

A week later, "Conquer" actually locked the ratings at 15%, surpassing all films of the same period in one fell swoop.

When Zhao Baogang received a call from Beijing TV in his office, his first reaction was to regret. Why didn’t he continue to persuade Shao Yingxiong at the beginning? If the hype could be taken down, the current "Conquest" is trying hard to challenge "Return of the Pearl 2"!

While Beijing TV is so popular, other places are also full of good news, Xinbaoyuan has been calling, and some TV stations even intend to buy out the second round of "Conquest", such as Huangpu.

The TV station and Zhao Baogang finally saw the profit. While they were using rakes to get money into their pockets, Shao Yingxiong and Gao Qunshu couldn't stop arguing!

...

"No! Absolutely no. It is absolutely impossible to let a 17-year-old girl from the Warrior Amateur Performance Team of Huangpu Security District play the daughter of "Yu Zhonghe". She doesn't even have any experience in performing!" Gao Qun slapped the table in anger, her glasses staring like a bronze bell.

"Why can't it be? Have you ever met Sun Li? Yu Zhonghe's daughter is a simple girl who is often deceived in the script. This girl is a little bit unruly. Sun Li's parents are divorced and have been living in a drifting background for several years. Director Gao, even if it doesn't work, you can meet first. If you say no after meeting, let's talk again!"

Shao Yingxiong tried his best to work hard for the new drama, but he never thought that the formation of the group would be such a huge and complicated process.

For a mature director, it may not be troublesome to build a group at all. They have their own team of cooperation and have long had a tacit understanding. As long as the actors are confirmed, they can be turned on. However, Gao Qunshu is different now. He is used to shooting police and gangster films, and he immediately switched to the drama of the Republic of China. Many people were unable to use it. The camera could not capture the sense of the times through the lens. Makeup was completely unfamiliar with the makeup of the Republic of China. Even props and lights had to find people again, and everything was pushed back and started over...
