Feature Shows Extravaganza

Meng Lang came to Neon this time, and arranging the ending of Dragon Rider was only one of his tasks. Another very important task is to contact TBS and ANB and ask them who is interested in Four Hundred Aunts.

Four Hundred Aunts is finished.

But the broadcast platform is not easy to find!

There is definitely no problem with Big Bird TV in China, but overseas, several partners are reluctant to introduce this drama.

For example, FOX directly refused.

Sound ridiculous?

Meng Heizhu directed it himself, and the subject matter is his best special photography hero drama, but no one bought the overseas broadcast rights?

It's hard to believe, but it's true.

The reason is also very simple!

Compared with works such as Kamen Rider, Ultraman and Super Sentai, Spider-Man is not cost-effective at all.

Even if it’s popular, it’s not worth buying!

This price-performance ratio refers to film purchase cost/advertising revenue. Because Meng Heizhu directed it himself and the production costs are high, the price of Spider-Man is similar to that of Ultraman Tiga.

If you are the leader of an overseas TV station, you have a budget of 10 million for film purchase.

Ultraman Tiga, which has proven its strength and has the foundation of the previous work, is in front of you. Would you buy Spider-Man, which has the same price but has not proven its strength?

It’s not easy for everyone to make money!

Except for Meng Heizhu, no one’s money is blown by the strong wind, so you can spend it however you want! For the same high price, you must weigh the pros and cons and make the choice that is most beneficial to you.

Someone may ask...

Since it can't be sold at a high price, why doesn't Meng Lang lower the price? It's still a profit to make less!

Good brother, I really can't surrender!

Facing the soul torture issued by TBS, Meng Lang complained: The production cost is really indispensable. You can't let me make the film and you will lose money, right?

But you still have peripheral derivatives and are losing money on toy subsidies. We TV stations can only make money on advertising revenue!

Toy……

Meng Lang's face darkened when he mentioned toys.

Spider-Man can indeed sell toys, but the IP has not become popular, so how can it be sold? If you want to hype an IP, you must first broadcast it to win the love of the audience.

This is back to square one!

The TV station doesn't want to take risks. If it buys Spider-Man at a high price and can't make back the money later, wouldn't it be a big loss?

Mengzi is also unwilling to take risks. If the broadcasting rights are sold cheaply and the toys cannot be earned back, he will suffer a big loss.

No one on either side wants to take a step back.

During the first meeting, Meng Lang and TBS executives broke up on bad terms.

Later, Meng Lang met with the president of ANB under Bai Cang's recommendation. This time, he finally made a breakthrough.

In the past two years, ANB has made a lot of money by relying on the topicality of Kuaga and Dragon Rider, and it has become bolder and is willing to take a gamble.

But they made a request.

If Spider-Man fails to make them money, Mengzi must give them a discount on his next work.

no problem!

Anyway, it is a verbal agreement. Regardless of whether it can be fulfilled or not, we must first nod and agree.

If something like this really happens, and Mengzi slaps his ass and goes back to Jiangchuan, pretending to be dead and not answering anyone's calls, then the president of ANB can only stare blankly, and there is nothing he can do about it.

When doing business, you must have a thick skin!

After being given a sip of ecstasy soup by Mengzi, the ANB president, who was already floating in the sky, quickly finalized the cooperation. We promised to introduce Spider-Man as soon as possible after it premieres on Big Bird TV.

The price is definitely not cheap!

After achieving his goal this time, Meng Lang also breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, he finally had time to mess with Omori, arranging the broadcast of the Dragon Knight TV special episode and the audience's voting for the ending.

The special episode is scheduled to be broadcast on October 15th.

This day happened to be Saturday, and the ratings were at their peak. ANB pulled the next variety show and freed up about 65 minutes to broadcast the edited Six Endings of Dragon Rider.

The audience was surprised!

Kamen Rider's broadcast on Saturday was already quite unexpected. What’s even more unexpected is that the TV series was only halfway through and the ending came out first!

What the hell is the PD agency doing?

Is such an obvious spoiler really okay? Meng Heizhu took a family photo alone, he must be smiling happily, right?

Complaints are complaints...

Although everyone hates spoilers. But after it actually happens, any audience who is interested in the plot will still be unable to help but take a look.

He kept saying Spoilers for Dog S's whole family and If you don't watch it, you'll be stupid if you don't watch it. But as night fell and the special episode was officially broadcast, ANB's skyrocketing ratings proved one point.

Everyone is a real fan!

Although Dragon Knight's ratings have hit rock bottom, they have never recovered. But it was brilliant when it premiered, and coupled with the popularity of Kamen Rider: Battle Royale, many people want to know what the ending will be like.

You won’t know until you see it, but you will be shocked when you see it!

In such a damn hour, six endings were cut into it. The audience who was scolding the members of the PD Club for dying suddenly and giving Shinji a little angel just a second ago, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets as different endings appeared.

1, 2, 3,...6!

There are six endings, each one different! In addition to the traditional tragic ending, there are also more family-friendly endings and open endings.

What are you doing?

Before they could figure out what the PD agency's move meant, the words at the end of the special episode instantly ignited public opinion.

By the end of October, we will solicit opinions from audiences around the world. The option with the highest number of votes will automatically become the ending of the Dragon Knight TV series. The remaining endings will be edited into the DVD...

“For specific voting methods, please refer to the official website announcement!”

Yo! How fresh is it?

The producer, who has always made his own decisions, solicited audience opinions for the first time and changed the original plan. This approach is the first of its kind in the industry.

Everyone’s enthusiasm immediately increased!

Being able to participate in the production of Kamen Rider is definitely a big deal for most Rider fans. Not only Neon, China, Europe and North America are also within the voting range.

This news also made it to the hot search list.

Many viewers want to vote for their favorite ending. However, the voting method subsequently announced by PD Agency made people dumbfounded.

When Kamen Rider Ryuki is broadcast, a series of voting codes will scroll at the bottom of the TV screen. Send this voting code to the designated number via text message to participate in the voting.

Voting codes are refreshed every 30 seconds!

Only one vote per mobile phone number!

This rule...

Although he didn't say it clearly, Mengzi's meaning was very clear. You must watch the latest episode of Dragon Knight and prove that you are indeed a Dragon Knight fan in order to be eligible to vote.

Bitch!

To cast a vote, you have to stare at the TV screen all the time, complete enter the code within 30 seconds, and send successfully. Did you miss the time without paying attention, causing the vote to be invalid?

Meng Heizhu was so worried about Dragon Rider’s ratings that he could even think of such a disgusting way...
