The counterattack of the dragon set [Entertainment circle]

This is Lu Yunxi's first star-studded drama, and also the first drama in which she plays the leading role. It is impossible to say that she is not nervous.Watching him in the TV series through the screen, Lu Yunxi had a very strange feeling.

It has been a while since filming, and he has already stepped out of the role of Fan Jingyun.But watching Fan Jingyun's family accident in the TV series, he felt like it was something he had experienced in his previous life.

As for the quality of the TV series, Lu Yunxi is not good at commenting because she has her own emotions in it, and she doesn't dare to go online to read everyone's comments.

Of course, there are people who are more nervous than Lu Yunxi, and that is the people from Shenghe Films. Whether it is the producer or Director Chen, they are very concerned about the broadcasting of the TV series.

TV dramas are of course focused on the ratings. Only good ratings can get high returns. In the final analysis, "money" is king.

Director Chen cared a lot, he cared about ratings as well as word of mouth.In the past two years, although the ratings of the TV dramas he made were not among the best, they were still at the top level and had a good reputation. "Ling Yunzhi" took a lot of effort from Director Chen, and it can be regarded as his ambitious work. In order to balance the problems caused by modifying the script, he made a major move.

In the TV industry, where actors' remuneration accounts for a large part, production companies pour a lot of water into the plot in order to recoup their costs.Because TV stations buy TV dramas based on how much they pay per episode, the more episodes they have, the more expensive they are, so TV dramas with [-] or [-] episodes are becoming more and more common.

"Ling Yunzhi" was originally scheduled to have 62 episodes, but after seeing the rough cut version, Director Chen was very dissatisfied, and cut the 48-episode version himself.Because the number of episodes was too short, the income could not be guaranteed. For this reason, he had conflicts with the producer and Shenghe's leadership.

Shenghe signed a contract with Mango TV a long time ago, so the general manager of Shenghe insisted on the original number of episodes. Even if the quality of the finished product is poor, it will not affect the income.But Director Chen didn't want to ruin his reputation for many years. He thought that Song Heng would also be involved in revising the script. As a last resort, he asked Song Heng's disciples for help.

The situation in "Ling Yunzhi" is very special, because Xie Kun was injured, the script has undergone very major changes.In the original number of episodes, Xie Kun played more roles in the early stage, and Lu Yunxi played more roles in the later stage, and there are still many far-fetched places.

When director Chen edited, he intentionally cut out the unreasonable parts in the play, and coordinated the roles of Lu Yunxi and Xie Kun, so that the whole TV series became a harmonious whole.Although the number of episodes has been reduced, the rhythm of the TV series is more compact, and the plot is very fascinating.

After Song Heng watched the condensed version, the balance in his heart had already tilted, but he did not directly issue an order, but asked Shenghe's senior management to watch the film internally.The leaders of Shenghe had to sit down and watch Director Chen's condensed version together, only to find that the effect of this version is indeed very good.

Only then did the leaders let go of their initial prejudices and agreed to use the 48-episode version.However, in order to recover the loss, they resorted to some small tricks.

Although Shenghe has signed a broadcast contract with Satellite TV, the contract can be changed.Sheng He secretly let people spread rumors, saying that because of an accident on the crew, only 62 episodes of "Ling Yunzhi" were cut out of the original 48 episodes.Sheng He immediately clarified that it was a commercial competition. In fact, the problem of the number of episodes of "Ling Yun Zhi" was caused by the director's desire to make the content more compact.

Shenghe's clarification was too timely, and there is a feeling that there is no silver 300 taels here. Mango TV is very worried about the finished product of "Ling Yun Zhi", so it especially wants to return "Ling Yun Zhi".However, Satellite TV was worried about offending Shenghe and the Wansheng Group behind Shenghe. Finally, they came up with the strategy of a VAM agreement.

Neither Mango TV nor Shenghe Pictures wanted to break the contract, but for their own benefit, they both agreed to re-sign the agreement.

Originally, Mango bought the first-round exclusive broadcast rights of "Ling Yun Zhi" at a price of 230 million per episode.In the re-signed gambling agreement, the two parties re-signed the price of a single TV series based on the ratings.

The end point of the gambling agreement is "gambling". Before the TV series is broadcast, no one knows the ratings, so both parties are taking certain risks.

协议中，如果《凌云志》平均收视率在1以下，那每集100万；收视率在1—1.5之间，那每集200万；收视率在1.5—2之间，那每集300万；收视率在2以上，每集400万。

230 million per episode was the first price offered by Mango TV. They believed that the average ratings of "Ling Yun Zhi" would be around 1.6.But because of a series of changes in the crew, they lowered their expectations, thinking that it would be good if the ratings could reach 1.5.So after re-signing the agreement, they felt that Satellite TV would save a lot of money.

But Wansheng didn't think so. They went through so much trouble, so of course they were ambitious.They have seen the condensed version and are very confident in "Ling Yun Zhi". This gamble officially kicked off on the first day of the junior high school.

Of course, only some of the leaders who signed the contract knew about the VAM agreement. As the vast audience, they cared more about the quality of the TV series.

As a person who often watches American dramas, Xiao Rong seldom turned on the TV today to watch domestic historical dramas for Lu Yunxi.Soon she discovered that she didn't play with her mobile phone while watching "Ling Yun Zhi", which was rarely the case before.

The plot of "Ling Yunzhi" is not procrastinated at all, and there are high-energy scenes in the first episode.Heavy rain fell, the city wall collapsed, many slaves who built the city wall were killed and injured, and then entered the main line, the unbearable slave Chen Qihao led an uprising.

Some of the dignitaries of the Zhou Dynasty saw the crisis of the dynasty, such as the father of the young master Fan Jingyun, but the emperor was so stupid that he didn't listen to advice at all, and even relegated the Fan family to Lingnan.Sitting in the prison van, Fan Jingyun looked back at the capital, with grief and disappointment in his eyes.

Xiao Rong seldom saw such a fast-paced TV series. Even during commercials, she hurried to the bathroom and came back quickly, waiting for the second episode to air.

After the two episodes were finished, Xiao Rong really wanted to watch the third episode, and even wanted to ask Lu Yunxi to read the script.She quickly logged on to Weibo and said, ""Ling Yun Zhi" is really good-looking, I regret not peeking at @路云希's script."

After posting on Weibo, many fans responded one after another, asking Xiao Rong to reveal what he knew about the plot.Of course, Xiao Rong would not reveal the plot in advance, and even regretted that he knew part of the plot behind it, so he couldn't really appreciate the charm of the TV series.

She quickly searched for relevant comments, and found that most people thought the TV series was good-looking, with a fast pace, and not sloppy at all.There are also many people who praised Lu Yunxi's acting skills, saying that they did not expect Lu Yunxi, a newcomer, to act surprisingly well.

As a loyal fan of Lu Yunxi, Xiao Rong is of course very happy. She couldn't help picking up her phone and calling Lu Yunxi: "Yunxi, congratulations, the TV series have good reviews, and many people say that you are a good actor La."

"Really? It's such a joy."

Xiao Rong asked in surprise: "Yun Xi, don't tell me you haven't read comments online, you are too calm."

Lu Yunxi didn't expect Xiao Rong to think like this, he laughed instantly: "You're thinking wrong, it's not that I'm calm, it's that I... am afraid of reading comments."

"Ah, so that's the case. Don't be afraid. The current evaluations are very good. It seems that Douban has a high score of 8.3 at the beginning."

"Really?" Although Douban has been criticized in the past two years, Douban is still the most authoritative rating website, so Lu Yunxi was really surprised when she heard the rating.

"Can I still lie to you?"

"No, thank you, Miss Rong." Lu Yunxi said sincerely, and Xiao Rong followed the Internet news for him, which showed that Xiao Rong really cared about him.When he was in the spirit world, he had very few friends. He didn't expect to gain several friends after traveling here.

"Go to bed early, don't worry, the quality of the TV series is so good, more people will definitely like it." Xiao Rong said.

Lu Yunxi nodded, and after hanging up the phone, he also let go of the big stone in his heart.He doesn't have to worry about the quality of the TV series, the only problem now is the ratings.

The author has something to say: I didn’t expect to write so many in the gambling agreement
