Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

Jing Yu looked at Cheng Lie, and Cheng Lie looked back at him.

"Then what can the producer do?" Jing Yu asked.

"Of course I have nothing to do!" Cheng Lie waved his hands repeatedly.

Before Jing Yu came to Yunteng, Yunteng TV's quarterly flagship dramas generally had an average rating of more than 3%, and those that reached 4% were called big hit dramas, and more than 5% basically did not exist.

But now, the ratings of the second season of Chess Soul are stable at more than 6%. Although the stand-in will end next week, the average ratings will be calculated after the final six episodes. % or more, and Yunteng usually has to invest at least 40 to 50 million in a drama, and it has to be placed on a good schedule to achieve this kind of ratings. As for the substitute, the investment is nine million, and the original purpose was that Jing Yu used it as cannon fodder for the sniper manual.

Not to mention Steins;Gate, this show is an absolute dark horse in the summer season. Although the ratings are not particularly high now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that as long as there are no problems with Jing Yu's subsequent plot, it will be a few weeks later. It is not a big problem for the ratings of this work to rise above 5%.

It can be said that the results of these three dramas are data that Yunteng has been difficult to achieve in the past, and because of this, once any of these three dramas is over, they will play the role of involving the main dramas of the three major TV stations. Yunteng TV station has no way to continue.

Normally, if the stand-in is over, then Yunteng TV may arrange a rerun of the previous self-produced drama on the Friday when the stand-in is broadcast, or create some other programs to replace it.

Of course, the same is true for Steins;Gate.

However, if whether these two dramas continue to be broadcast is related to the ratings growth of Qihun's rival film and television dramas "Manual" and "Cliff", then naturally they cannot end so hastily.

Otherwise, as soon as the double and Steins;Gate are over, the ratings of the two dramas Handbook and Cliff will skyrocket and then overtake the soul of chess, then you will be dumbfounded. After all, as far as it is now, it is only possible for the soul of chess, and there is a probability that the ratings will overtake "Cliff" and reach the first place. The overall average ratings, if you give the opponent a chance at this time, the idea of ​​the chess soul reaching the top may be ruined.

"So what does Producer Cheng mean?" Jing Yu asked.

"That's right. Can Mr. Jing Yu not let these two works finish so quickly, or, even if these two works are finished, can he think of a way to make the audience of the two works feel better in the future? Stay on Yunteng TV at the same time in a few weeks, don't let them all go to contribute to the ratings of the two dramas Manual and Cliff." Cheng Lie laughed awkwardly.

Jing Yu has already helped Yunteng produce three blockbuster TV dramas in one quarter, but the station cannot even complete the work of stabilizing the ratings after the end, so Jing Yu has to think about the countermeasures.

Cheng Lie himself felt that Yunteng TV was a bit too salty, but there was nothing he could do about it. It involved competition for film and television dramas with ratings above 4%, and it was not easy to call other screenwriters on the station. They were no threat to the top three TV stations.

"This..." Jing Yu fell into deep thought.

The original Steins;Gate game has a huge amount of content.

Like the main game of Steins;Gate in the previous life and the film and television drama of Steins;Gate that Jing Yu is filming now, it is just one of several branch plots in the original game. Of course, it is the most perfect branch.

In addition, Steins;Gate also has plots unfolding in other world lines.

For example, the protagonist joins the "organization", the branch that eventually rules the world with the institution, the branch where the protagonist and Phyllis save the world together, the branch that went to the last century with migrant workers to find old-fashioned computers, and the branch that turned into a woman. Luca together and then against the branch of the agency.

And some small episodes, such as the daughter of the owner of the electrical appliance shop downstairs in the research room where the male protagonist is. Because of the death of the electrical shop owner, she hated the male protagonists Zhou Gang and Tong Yu, and from that time fifteen years later, I can only remember Going back forty-eight hours, the telephone and microwave oven were operated four to five thousand times in a row. With the revenge that was so persistent that it exploded, he traveled upstream all the way back in time just to go back to this era and kill Tong Yu with his own hands.

Of course, the male lead, Zhou Gang, has been tortured to death by her fifteen years later, in various ways. It is also known as the blackening incident of small animals by fans of the original game.

She killed Zhou Gang, and then prepared to spend fifteen years in this era, until she killed Zhou Gang for the second time fifteen years later, and then went back in time, and killed Tong Yu again in this era. After fifteen years, go back in time and go back and forth again and again, a reincarnation of thirty years.

Her life only exists in killing Tong Yu and killing Zhou Gang fifteen years later. As for why not kill them together, because the world line is closed, it cannot be killed in this era, it must be fifteen years later. Only after years can Zhou Gang be killed.

It is not enough to hate two people and kill them once. You have to kill them countless times through the time machine to relieve your anger. It is really the most ruthless character in the work of Steins;Gate.

However, such a character is just an eleven-year-old girl in the era when the male protagonist Zhou Gang was looking for old-fashioned computers. Who doesn't like such a darkened little girl?

This kind of plot is filmed as a special episode, and it must have a high ratings.

But just thinking about it, if you want all these things to be filmed in detail, Jing Yu can't even shoot seven or eight seasons.

"For Steins;Gate, it's easy to handle. After the main story is over, just shoot a little side story. Although it may involve some zero-story plots, it doesn't matter."

For example, the initial plot of the 0th episode of Steins;Gate is actually okay to be used as an extra episode. Or directly shoot some daily life of the protagonists. I believe that the audience who have finished watching the main story will also be happy to watch some happy stories.

"But if it's a stand-in," Jing Yu spread his hands.

"There is no room for in-depth discussion of this work. No one will watch the extra episodes. The highlight of this drama is blood and various bizarre deaths. Once the main story is over, the appeal to the audience will be completely lost."

When Cheng Lie heard this, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"Then, for example, a short play like Mr. Jing Yu's famous work Tomorrow on Jinhui TV," Cheng Lie suggested.

"It's useless. The ratings of the short drama started too slowly, and it ended before the ratings rose. It can't affect the ratings of the manual at all."

And if it is Jing Yu who is currently filming a new medium-length drama temporarily to replace the schedule of the "stand-in", it is equivalent to a new drama taking over the stand-in, which is different from the second season of Qihun, where the second season inherits the popularity of the first season. And Now time is too late, after all, the final episode of the double will be broadcast in two or three days. If the double is to be replaced, the time left for Jing Yu is less than ten days. If you focus on this drama, you may not be able to catch up The first episode came out, but Jing Yuke still had Chess Soul and Stones of Destiny to film, obviously that kind of situation was unrealistic.

Jing Yu looked at Cheng Lie, and said.

"Some things are not planned at the beginning, and it will be difficult to hold Buddha's feet later."

But Cheng Lie can't be blamed for this kind of thing, because Jing Yu himself is also taking a step at a time.

Although backed by so many highly popular works from previous lives, Jing Yu can only roughly judge whether these works will be popular after the big week broadcast.

Jing Yu’s goal at the beginning was actually to let Qihun pull down one of the top three TV stations. After all, there is still a big gap between the platforms of Yunteng and the top three TV stations. Qihun must be an excellent work, but the main drama of the top three TV stations Not too bad either.

Jing Yu couldn't say for sure whether the quality gap between Soul of Chess and these works, or the traffic gap between Yunteng and the broadcasting platforms of the six major TV stations, was greater, so Jing Yu was relatively conservative in his performance estimates at the beginning.

"But even so. Producers don't have to worry, it's enough that the two works of double and Steins;Gate have played a big enough role in helping the second season of Chess Soul. Now, instead of going to the doctor in a hurry, we should believe At least after hard work, the work Soul of Chess has achieved the same ratings as the main dramas of the three major TV stations. Even if the competition continues, I am confident that it will never lose."

Cheng Lie was silent for a moment, thought about Jing Yu's words, and finally sighed.

"That's the only way to go. After the stand-in is over, I'll ask the station to arrange a rebroadcast of it at the same time in the next few weeks, as well as Stones of Destiny's Gate, if Teacher Jing Yu has it."

At this time, if you don't want the audience to quickly flow to the manual after the avatar is over, it must be a good way to let the avatar replay.

After Cheng Lie calmed down at this moment, he thought over and over while organizing his words, but he also noticed something right away.

"By the way, Teacher Jing Yu, you just mentioned a key word, right? Steins;Gate 0 plot. 0. What is it?"
