After "Bright Sword" was completed, Song Hao and others also carried out post-production.
Since the team size is larger this time, the production of the previous content has already begun even during filming.
In half a month, the entire drama "Bright Sword" was completed.
During this period, Director Ma of Phoenix TV also expressed interest in obtaining the broadcasting rights for "Bright Sword".
So he also asked someone to find Song Hao's contact information.
Not long after, they met.
As soon as we met, Director Ma said happily: "I have wanted to meet Director Xiao Song for a long time, and now I have the opportunity to meet him."
Song Hao also replied: "It's not too late to get to know him now. I have heard of Master Ma for a long time and have admired his name for a long time."
"Come on, let's sit down and talk."
Director Ma first asked about the creation of "Bright Sword".
When he learned that the film "Bright Sword" had been completed.
He asked to see samples.
Song Hao saw that he was sincere, so he also asked his assistant to bring the samples.
For the next hour, Director Ma was looking at the computer.
After roughly watching one episode, I praised it and said, "This was so well shot. The role of Li Yunlong, Zhang Dabiao, and Captain Kong were all brought to life."
"What makes me most uncomfortable is that the monk was not killed by the enemy's gun, but was killed by his compatriots. It is really ironic."
Director Ma immediately asked Song Hao: "Director Song, can we discuss cooperation on the broadcast rights of "Bright Sword"?"
Song Hao replied: "Of course it's no problem. I wonder what Director Ma's intention is?"
Director Ma euphemistically said: "Please give me a price. I'm afraid that the price I mentioned is not appropriate and will affect our cooperation. I am really sincere and want to cooperate with Director Song."
Song Hao thought for a while and finally said: "It can be seen that Director Ma came here in person this time because he really wants to cooperate with the broadcast rights of "Bright Sword"."
"But I have already reached cooperation with three TV stations before. If Director Ma wants to get their prices, it may not be possible."
"Six million per episode, whatever Mr. Ma wants."
Director Ma was dumbfounded when he heard that one episode was worth 6 million.
"This price." Director Ma smiled awkwardly: "It does surprise me a bit."
Song Hao also added, promising: "I know Director Ma may be hesitant, otherwise, let's sign a gambling agreement."
"What are the conditions?" Director Ma also became interested.
"I will bet that after "Bright Sword" is launched, the average ratings will exceed 5%, the market share of the entire TV series's ratings will be no less than 35%, and the number of online broadcasts will be no less than 1 billion."
"If these data are reached, we will charge 6 million per episode, and the broadcasting rights are for three years. The number of subsequent rebroadcasts will also be decided by your station. I will not interfere; if any of the above data cannot be reached, , let’s press 1 million for one episode, what do you think?”
Song Hao's words made Director Ma suddenly happy.
If the average ratings of "Bright Sword" exceed 5% after it is aired, it will already be a phenomenal TV series.
The previous "Hurry" broke through more than 5% and became a TV series that broke out of the industry, triggering a period of "Hurry" trend.
If "Bright Sword" can reach the data of "Hurry".
Then this deal is definitely not a loss.
Director Ma also knew that this was an opportunity.
So he immediately made a decision and said, "Okay, Director Song, I'll do as you say."
In this way, Guoteng Media signed an agreement with Phoenix TV for the broadcast rights of "Bright Sword".
After Director Ma returned to the TV station, he told the senior executives about this incident.
This also surprised many people.
Deputy Director Wang Wenbo widened his eyes and said, "Director, did you actually buy "Bright Sword" for 6 million an episode?"
Before this, Wang Wenbo thought that Director Ma would only earn 3 million per episode at most.
Although he is not optimistic about the Anti-Japanese War drama, it is Song Hao's work after all, and it still has a certain quality.
But now the price has doubled to buy the broadcast rights of "Bright Sword".
It’s simply a huge loss.
Director Wu also advised: "This "Bright Sword" is an anti-war drama. Today's audiences have lost confidence in anti-war dramas. Basically, they are impatient after watching anti-war dramas. The initial impression is so low, even if Song Hao goes to film anti-war themes. , and you may not be able to get your money back.”
Not only Director Wu, but also everyone else agreed.
Director Ma also explained: "We signed a gambling agreement with Director Song."
After speaking, he projected the electronic version of the agreement on the computer on the screen.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
If this data is really followed, the two parties will enter into a betting agreement.
If the requirements of the agreement are not met, the price of "Bright Sword" will be 1 million per episode.
Even if the ratings of "Bright Sword" are really not good by then, with the title of Song Hao, it will not be much worse.
One million episodes, only profit but no loss.
But Song Hao firmly believes that this "Bright Sword" will definitely not have low ratings.
Although this TV series has no so-called big-name stars.
But Song Hao has never followed the traffic route.
Ratings depend on quality and reputation.
He believes that the audience's eyes are sharp, and he also believes that they will not dislike "Bright Sword" because of their initial impression of the war drama.
No one knows "Bright Sword" better than him.
After the finished film was produced, Song Hao immediately sent someone to take it to the Broadcasting and Television Bureau for review.
The Broadcasting and Television Bureau has always had standards for green-lighting war dramas.
Not to mention Song Hao's works.
Just three days.
Then got the final reply.
The review of "Bright Sword" has been completed.
Can be broadcast.
Song Hao also promptly informed the heads of four TV stations and two online platforms that "Bright Sword" could be broadcast.
Naturally, they started promoting it immediately.
Today, there are six platforms that can broadcast "Bright Sword".
Just see which one's advertising is louder, and it will be able to retain more viewers.
CCTV 1, CCTV 8, and even the prime time broadcast time every night will promote the trailer of "Bright Sword".
The same is true for Dragon TV, which takes turns to broadcast promotional trailers during the day and night.
Phoenix Channel is the scariest. After all, if the ratings exceed 5%, then they will have to buy the broadcast rights for 6 million an episode.
Therefore, they must promote it and make the money spent as worthwhile as possible.
Therefore, Phoenix Channel will have a trailer video for "Bright Sword" every three hours in the morning, noon and evening.
Such overwhelming publicity.
The publicity for "Bright Sword" has already been ramped up.
It's even better than when I was furious.
Not to mention iQiyi and Xunteng Video.
They entered the preview mode of the website banner early, and even sent text messages to those member users to remind them that a large-scale anti-war drama "Bright Sword" was about to be released.
Thanks to the joint efforts of many parties, "Bright Sword" has been on the hot search list many times.
This made netizens curious.
"Oh my god, the promotional expenses for "Bright Sword" must have been fully spent this time."
"Yeah, this is the first time I've seen so much publicity."
"It feels like Director Song is very confident in this TV series."
"No matter how confident you are, you can't watch an Anti-Japanese War drama. I think watching Anti-Japanese War dramas is at the level of my parents and grandparents."
"I also think that I have never watched the Anti-Japanese War drama. Every time, my dad would turn on the TV drama and watch it happily."
"I'm a little confused now whether to watch it or not. After all, it's a work produced by Director Song, but I really feel a bit bored watching the Anti-Japanese War drama."
Under the burst of publicity, time passed quickly.
At the same time, good news also came from overseas "2012".
Overseas box office results have exceeded 10 million US dollars.
This data is already very impressive.
If this continues, it may even exceed US$15 million.
This is really not easy for a Chinese disaster science fiction theme.
During this period, Song Hao also received tasks from the system.
[Task: If you win any award at the Venice International Film Festival, you will receive a film redemption card*1000, as well as master-level war scene construction capabilities. 】
Seeing this mission, Song Hao thought it was good.
After all, when he was filming "Bright Sword", he always felt that he didn't have enough control over the war scenes.
If we can obtain such structural capabilities, I believe that when we shoot the details of the battle in the future, we will be able to do better.
Moreover, the TV series has a red theme. If there is a chance in the future, there must be a movie.
For this reason, he can't help but look forward to it, hoping that one day he can use a large-scale red-themed movie to give everyone a visual feast.
Half a month later.
"Bright Sword" is officially available on CCTV 1, CCTV 8, Dragon TV and Phoenix Channel, as well as prime time slots on iQiyi and Xunteng Video!
To everyone's surprise, Mango Channel also officially broadcast the anti-war drama "Moving towards the Artillery Fire" on this day.
Because the starring role is Wu Qilong, there has been a wave of Qing court costume dramas before, making countless girls want to travel back to ancient times and have an encounter with the prince.
Therefore, before the broadcast, many fans also supported their fourth master.
“Always support Angkor!”
"Fourth Master, here I come!"
"I must watch your TV series tonight!!"
"Come on!! After filming this anti-war drama, we have to go back to filming costume dramas!!"
Judging from the current situation, it seems that this film "Moving towards the Gunfire" and "Drawing Sword" have a tendency to compete with each other.
So this day.
Many young people of the younger generation have already gifted this movie "Bright Sword" to their parents.
Some female fans, on the other hand, went to follow their idols and watch "Into the Fire".
In Chaomei Community.
A middle-aged man, after dinner, picked up a toothpick and then turned on the TV.
Every night he watches a dating show.
My daughter, who is studying in college, happened to come home today. She saw that her father was watching a blind date show again, so she complained: "Dad, why do you watch the blind date show every day? Do you also want to go on a blind date?"
The middle-aged man said happily: "Ask your mother if she agrees. If she agrees, I will agree."
At this time, the middle-aged man's wife walked out of the kitchen with a frown on her face. She glared at her and said, "I agree, do you dare to go?"
The middle-aged man replied with a smile: "Then I won't go, I'm teasing Miaomiao."
Miaomiao said speechlessly: "Can you stop watching the dating show? I will choose a good show for you."
"Come on, come on, adjust it." With that, the middle-aged man handed the remote control to his daughter.
He wanted to see what good programs his daughter could pick out.
In addition to dating programs and family ethics programs, what other interesting content can there be on today's channels?
Miaomiao kept pressing the remote control and turned several channels in succession.
But there just aren't many options.
Even she herself thinks that the best content is probably the dating shows like "If You Are the One".
At this moment, she suddenly thought of a TV series, which happened to be broadcast tonight.
So she quickly tuned to CCTV.
Just then, the sound of gunfire came from the TV.
The middle-aged man looked at it and said happily: "Are you helping me choose a good TV series? Isn't this the Anti-Japanese War drama? I'm tired of watching it."
"Dad, this may not be a drama about the Anti-Japanese War, but I can't say for sure. This director is very good. During the Chinese New Year, I took you to watch "2012," do you still remember?" Miaomiao asked.
The middle-aged man nodded: "Remember."
"This Anti-Japanese War drama was made by that director." Miaomiao replied.
The middle-aged man was a little surprised: "He is so talented, making such a large-scale disaster movie, but he actually went to shoot an anti-war drama."
"Anyway, his works are quite good, but I don't have much motivation to watch the Anti-Japanese War drama. You can just watch it to kill time."
After saying that, Miaomiao put down the remote control and went back to the house to play games with her long-distance boyfriend.
The middle-aged man looked at the picture on the TV and then looked at the title of the show in the upper left corner: "Show your sword. It's quite interesting to show your sword when necessary."
Although he still feels that even if this director makes a wonderful "2012", it will still be a challenge if he wants to make a good anti-war drama.
But since his daughter recommended it to him, he couldn't dissipate his interest.
So he decided to watch it for a few minutes to make up for the time.
But slowly, the middle-aged man discovered that this show was indeed good.
Our soldiers were wearing tattered clothes, and even Wang Chengzhu said that he only had two shells left.
The lack of ammunition is very different from previous anti-war dramas.
In the previous anti-war dramas, a pistol could shoot dozens of bullets.
There is no need to change the magazine at all, which is why middle-aged men hate watching anti-war dramas so much.
It's so unrealistic.
Nowadays, this "Bright Sword" is not shot like this.
Instead, facing the enemy's fierce attack, a regiment leader named Li Yunlong picked up a broadsword and said directly to the brothers: "Brothers, charge with me!"
The fierce battle focused all the middle-aged man's attention on the TV screen.
The wife on the side didn't know when she sat down and watched with relish.
Neither of them spoke.
They are all immersed in the plot.
And Miaomiao in the room complained speechlessly in the voice of the king: "Why are you always like this? Why do you always get angry easily when playing games?! I won't even play ranked with you. This is a match. You They still keep being mean to me."
Miaomiao's boyfriend: "It's not about whether you're mean or not, but remember to zoom in on that wave you just made. You Cai Wenji has breasts, but you're not bigger than me."
"I just said that I was defeated by King Lanling, but you just didn't listen. Go watch the replay yourself! I'm not big! I'm flat! I'm not! Okay!"
The couple who were loving each other half an hour ago didn't want to get into trouble anymore just because they had a royal fight.
An angry Miaomiao put down her phone and planned to hang out with her boyfriend and go out for a glass of water.
As soon as she went out, she saw her parents watching TV series with great interest.
Walk over and take a look.
"Hey, isn't this the TV series I just tuned? They really watch Director Song's work!"
Miaomiao was a little surprised.
She drank the water and watched the plot on TV.
Then she asked her father beside her: "Dad, what do you think of this TV series? Is it particularly suitable for you middle-aged and elderly people? By the way, does this TV series have the characteristics of an anti-war drama?"
After asking, Miaomiao continued to take a sip of water, waiting for the middle-aged man's answer.
However, his father still watched the TV series motionlessly.
Those eyes didn't even blink.
Miaomiao was a little surprised.
He shouted again: "Dad!"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then he asked confusedly: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"I just asked you, what do you think of this TV series? Is this TV series an anti-war drama?" Miaomiao continued to ask.
She wondered why her father was deaf.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Not to mention, this drama is quite interesting. I don't know if it is an anti-war drama, but this first episode is very beautiful."
"Ah?" As soon as these words came out, Miaomiao suddenly became curious.
She leaned on the sofa and looked at it seriously.
In the bedroom, the boyfriend had already finished watching the playback.
He sent a WeChat message to Miaomiao: [Miaomiao, I'm sorry. I didn't see you being killed by King Lanling just now. It was my fault. I apologize to you. 】
[But actually you can still zoom in, as long as your hand speed is fast enough. 】
[The message has been withdrawn. 】
【Miaomiao? Don’t be angry~]
【I was wrong! 】
What he didn't know was that Miaomiao was already immersed in the plot of "Bright Sword" at this moment.
She didn't expect that after just standing on the sofa for a while, she curiously watched an entire episode.
In the hotel.
A couple entered the room cuddling each other.
They are a long-distance couple.
Finally met.
As the saying goes, a long separation is better than a new marriage.
They even prepared a box set.
The main focus is artillery fire.
As soon as the boy closed the door, he moved his hands up and down, wanting it.
But the girl said: "I'll take a shower first~ I bought a set of underwear, I'll show it to you later!"
"Okay, okay, then go ahead."
The boy immediately took off his clothes, then lay on the bed and waited.
Hearing the patter of the shower, he felt a little anxious.
To kill time, he turned on the hotel TV.
As soon as he opened it, he saw CCTV 8's "Bright Sword" being broadcast.
Boys no longer have much temptation towards this kind of anti-war drama.
So he changed channels.
However, several channels in a row did not have suitable programs.
And there are only so many channels that the hotel can play.
Out of boredom, he had no choice but to click back to the eight CCTV episodes he just watched.
Originally I just wanted to kill time.
Unexpectedly, he was gradually attracted by the plot inside.
"Damn these beasts, why are their weapons so powerful?"
"Well done to Li Yunlong and well done to Zhang Dabiao, kill them all."
"Captain Chu, you can help me."
"The heroes of that era are really worthy of tribute."
The boy looked at it and sighed.
This also made my girlfriend who was taking a shower inside a little confused.
She didn't know who her boyfriend was talking to.
After changing into underwear, my girlfriend couldn't wait to come out and asked: "How is it? Am I beautiful?"
What she didn't expect was that her boyfriend didn't look at her at all.
Instead, he stared at the TV with his eyes motionless.
[Small, are you pretending to be reserved? See how I seduce you! ~]
My girlfriend quickly climbed into bed.
Only then did the boy react. He was startled and said, "It turns out to be you. It scared me to death."
The girlfriend frowned: "It's not me, I'm still a ghost."
"No, what I mean is that I was watching a TV series just now, and suddenly you appeared and scared me." The boy explained hurriedly.
"What do you mean you suddenly appeared? I've called you several times from the side, but you didn't answer me." The girlfriend suddenly became emotional: "What kind of crappy TV series are you watching?"
She looked back and complained speechlessly: "Since it's this kind of anti-war drama, what's the point of watching it? Turn it off!"
"No, no, no, I'll lower my voice, it won't affect you."
The boy said, turning down the volume of the remote control while still staring at the TV screen with his big eyes.
My girlfriend couldn't bear it anymore.
The two of them also started to get up.
Later, in order to continue watching TV series, the boy chose to push the cart.
【This is such a good drama! 】
This is the emotion in the boys' hearts.
This night, "Bright Sword" only aired two episodes.
But it made everyone happy.
Because of these two episodes, Li Yunlong faced the enemy's fierce attack, successfully broke through from the front and killed Itada.
Monk Wei in the second episode is even more loved by everyone.
This night.
Almost all men, women, and children fixate their remote controls on those TV channels.
CCTV One, CCTV Eight, Dragon TV and Phoenix Channel.
And young people are more likely to watch tonight's "Bright Sword" on online platforms.
They tweeted one after another in the barrage.
"I'll go! It's so beautiful."
"It makes my blood boil!!"
"Li Yunlong is a man."
"Kill these little days."
"I really want to go back in time and shoot them with a gun."
"It's so enjoyable to watch."
After the two episodes were aired, they quickly set off a wave of discussion on the Internet.
None of them expected that Song Hao was actually good at anti-war dramas.
"Originally, military themes are difficult to watch, but this one is very good and the plot is interesting."
"A very manly drama, the self-taught God of War - Lao Li!"
"Every character is cute, but they are not stereotyped. The characters are full-bodied, and the plot is not as dramatic as the Anti-Japanese War. It is very real and you will never tire of it."
"It's very beautiful. Li Yunlong's foul language is unexpectedly cute? (ω)"
"This is the plot that an anti-war film should have. It's a very good anti-war film."
"Li Youbin and other actors are really amazing, and they vividly interpret this encounter in a narrow road and the brave one wins!"
"Li Youbin perfectly interprets Li Yunlong's gangster and gangster spirit, and the story is not pretentious and very down-to-earth."
Online, almost all have positive reviews.
Some viewers who didn't know the reason even thought that they hired a navy army.
But gradually everyone discovered that this drama is indeed a good drama.
Now viewers and netizens are even more looking forward to tonight's ratings.
Soon it was twelve o'clock.
Major platforms immediately released the latest data.
Average ratings for the premiere of "Bright Sword": 3.12%
As soon as this data came out, netizens on the Internet were shocked!
at the same time.
Director Ye of Mango TV also widened his eyes when he looked at the ratings report of "Moving towards the Gunfire".
Asking for a monthly ticket!
