Most of the industry is not optimistic about Tian Hai competing with Huayi, and "Welcome Together" competing with "You Are Still Young". The reasons are still the same. Huayi’s big production, big-name directors, big-name screenwriters, and stars gathered together. Tianhai’s “three noes”, screenwriter and director Wang Xuan, is invincible in the world of composition, but he is a complete incompetent in the world of screenwriting and directing. A newcomer has not proven himself yet. Comparing the two, who will be optimistic about Tianhai?
"So Suning TV is stupid, right? It's fooling around with Tianhai."
"Suning TV is not stupid. It is obvious that Suning TV is returning a favor and repaying the favor owed to the Spring Festival Gala."
"Yes, the song "Courage" sung by Chen Xueqi on the stage of Suning TV Spring Festival Gala was enough to raise the ratings of Suning TV's Spring Festival Gala to 12.1. This is definitely unprecedented and will rarely be matched by others in the future. It’s rash.”
"Those who say Suning TV is returning Wang Xuan's favor probably don't know how much Suning TV spent to purchase the premiere rights to "Welcome to School Together"!"
"How many?"
"One million, per episode!"
"..."
"impossible!"
"1 million/episode, are you sure?"
"Definitely, definitely! I have a best friend who works at Suning TV. I won't reveal who he is. He told me personally that Suning TV spent 34 million yuan to purchase the premiere rights of "Born Together". "Window" has a total of 34 episodes, with an average of 1 million per episode."
"... Damn it! Suning TV is crazy, right?"
"I feel crazy too. As far as I know, Yanjing Satellite TV only paid 1.5 million/episode for the premiere rights of "Hello, Youth". But it is a big production, and the comprehensive cost was 150 million. The production cost is 6 million per episode, so it is normal for Yanjing TV to spend 1.5 million per episode to purchase the first broadcast rights of "Hello, Youth".
What about "Welcome to the Same Window"? I heard that the total cost was only about 20 million, which translates to a cost of about 600,000/episode, but the first broadcast rights were sold for a high price of 1 million/episode. Why? "
"Suning TV is going to be taken advantage of!"
"Take advantage of me? It means that Suning TV's TV drama department doesn't understand it as well as you do."
"That's right. Suning TV also has a TV drama review team, okay? It sounds like they are just doing it for free. If "Welcome to School Together" doesn't work, do you think they will offer a high price of 1 million per episode?"
"You may not believe it when I tell you. I heard that 1 million per episode is still a preferential price. It was a preferential price offered by Wang Xuan to thank Suning TV for temporarily allowing Chen Xueqi to attend the Spring Festival Gala. Otherwise, the premiere price of "Welcome to School Together" Probably higher."
"...Nima, you are telling a story!"
"Look, I know you don't believe it. Then let me tell you something that you may not believe even more. As far as I know, Yangcheng Satellite TV purchased the second-round broadcast rights of "Born Together" at a price of more than 500,000 per episode."
"Editor, keep making it up!"
"Can you make it any more outrageous? Yangcheng TV will spend 500,000 per episode to buy the second-round broadcast rights of a TV series. Are you daydreaming or am I daydreaming?"
"Who doesn't know that Yangcheng TV is famous for its Buddhist culture? Not to mention that the 500,000 yuan per episode is only for the second round of broadcast rights. Even if it is the first round of broadcast rights, I guess Yangcheng TV will also consider it."
"Believe it or not, if you don't believe it, you will fall."
"Tch! Then what you say must be credible. I am from Yangcheng, so I will put my words here today. If Yangcheng Satellite TV really spent more than 500,000 per episode to buy "Went to School Together" "I ran naked around Yangcheng for the second round of broadcast rights." said a certified V account named Luo Tian.
"Seriously? But it seems your ID has been authenticated. Luo Tian, a reporter from Yangcheng Metropolis Daily, with a big V number, shouldn't be cheating?"
"What are you kidding about? I, Luo Tian, always keep my word."
"Very good! But I know your editor-in-chief, and I'm not afraid of you cheating, so classmate Luo Tian, you can prepare for streaking now," someone said.
"What do you mean?" Luo Tian was stunned.
Others were also a bit baffled.
Soon, they understood what the man meant. Because the official Weibo of Yangcheng Satellite TV suddenly posted a Weibo, it was officially announced that Yangcheng Satellite TV had purchased the second-round broadcast rights of "Welcome to the Same Window" and will start broadcasting it at 3 pm on July 8.
This time slot is definitely considered a prime time slot. Don’t forget, on July 1st, the summer vacation has begun.
Yangcheng TV’s official Weibo also specially liked Luo Tian, writing playfully: “It should have been official for a while, but I just wanted to see reporter Luo Tian running around naked. Well, it must be a beautiful scenery. "
As soon as this Weibo post came out, Luo Tian was stunned.
Countless people were stunned. Afterwards, many people burst out laughing.
"puff!"
"66666..."
"Haha, please help Luo Tian's mental shadow."
"Poor Luo Tian, as soon as he set up a flag, it was destroyed."
"Yangcheng TV is so naughty!"
"I don't care if Yangcheng TV is naughty or not. I only care about when will the Luo University reporter run naked?"
Soon, the Internet was flooded with the topic "When will Luo Da's reporter run naked?" The topic was all over the Internet when this sentence was posted.
"..." Luo Tian was speechless and decisively pretended to be dead.
It is impossible to run naked, and it is impossible to run naked in this life.
I just can’t figure it out!
As a native of Yangcheng, Luo Tian is very aware of the poor nature of Yangcheng Satellite TV. When has he ever seen Yangcheng Satellite TV spend such a large amount of money to purchase the second-round broadcast rights of a TV series?
Is this TV series really that good?
Luo Tian took heart.
Others are also interacting with Yangcheng TV’s official Weibo and asking this question.
In response, Yangcheng Satellite TV responded this way: "Of course the TV series produced by Teacher Wang Xuan is good enough and well-produced. Believe me, this TV series "Welcome to School Together" will definitely bring back everyone's youthful memories. "
"Indeed." At this moment, the official Weibo account of Ludong Satellite TV suddenly left a message under Yangcheng Satellite TV's reply, leaving many people stunned.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
"Am I dazzled by the interaction between Ludong TV and Yangcheng TV?"
"Isn't it possible that Ludong Satellite TV has also purchased the second-round broadcast rights of "Welcome to School Together"?" Someone made a guess, and soon received a positive reply from Ludong Satellite TV.
Then, Ludong Satellite TV’s official Weibo also posted a Weibo. The general idea was similar to Yangcheng Satellite TV’s Weibo. They both purchased the second-round broadcast rights of “Born Together”. The only difference is the scheduled time period. Differently, Ludong Satellite TV is targeting the morning slot and will start broadcasting at 9:30 am on July 8.
As soon as Ludong Satellite TV's Weibo came out, the Internet became even more lively.
If when Suning TV officially announced the release date of "Welcome Together", many people on the Internet still had doubts about this TV series, then with the official announcements of Yangcheng TV and Ludong TV, these doubts were almost eliminated.
Ludong Satellite TV has been struggling in recent years, but its judgment in selecting TV series is still very vicious. As for Yangcheng TV, when have you ever seen Yangcheng TV spend a lot of money to buy a TV series?
Therefore, many people have expressed their expectations for "Together".
This is also the result that Yangcheng Satellite TV and Ludong Satellite TV want.
In fact, both Yangcheng Satellite TV and Ludong Satellite TV have purchased the second-round broadcast rights of the same program, and there is competition between them. However, due to different broadcast times and one in the south and one in the north, their respective viewing groups are different, and the competitive relationship is different. It's too strong.
The most important thing now is to strike while the iron is hot and increase the popularity of "Together". Once the premiere of "Staying Together" became a huge success on Suning TV, countless advertisers would naturally come to them.
Advertisements on TV stations are calculated in seconds, and the number of seconds is tens of thousands. With naming rights and other factors included, it won't be long before they can make back their money and make money.
Anyway, "Born Together" has become very popular.
Cheng Kun, the director of Huayi, was so angry that he threw several cups in the office.
"Okay, okay! Wang Xuan, Wang Xuan, you want to die, right? OK, I'll help you!" Cheng Kun hummed, calling for his assistant: "Go, inform the Propaganda Department to increase the number of "Hello, Youth" In the next ten days, we must put down the popularity of "Welcome to the Same Window" with our publicity efforts."
"receive!"
After the assistant left, Cheng Kun called Chen Boyu, the head of Huayi Film and Television Department, and asked: "So many days have passed, and the second-round broadcast rights of "Hello, Youth" have not been sold yet?"
"...Mr. Cheng, didn't you say that you are not in a hurry to sell the second-round broadcast rights of "Hello, Youth"?" Chen Boyu said.
"That was before, now and then. Now you contact those TV stations who are interested in "Hello, Youth". The price can be slightly lower, 600,000 per episode is not unacceptable, but they must keep the price confidential and cooperate with external parties. Huayi’s promotion." Cheng Kun said.
"Understood." After Chen Boyu finished speaking, he went to contact the TV station.
Two hours later, Chen Boyu had feedback: "Mr. Cheng, those TV stations are taking advantage of the situation and are not even willing to release 600,000 yuan per episode. The highest one will give 550,000 yuan per episode, and the others will only offer 500,000 yuan per episode. "
"Okay, okay!" Cheng Kun laughed angrily when he heard this, "Forget it, ignore them, wait until "Hello, Youth" has completed its premiere. If these TV stations still want "Hello, Youth" by then, For the second-round broadcast rights, if you don’t have 800,000 per episode, don’t even think about it!”
"clear!"
...
On the other side, at the recording site of "The King of Masked Singer", Wang Xuan and the others had completed the lottery.
In the second round of the Easter competition, Wang Xuan and the others will sing a total of 2 songs, and the top four with the total number of votes will advance to the Easter finals.
Wang Xuan's first song was drawn as No. 2, Peony was drawn as No. 4, King Lanling was drawn as No. 1, Bai Lian was drawn as No. 6, Pixiu was drawn as No. 5, and Orchid was drawn as No. 3.
For the second song, Wang Xuan drew No. 5, Peony drew No. 1, King Lanling drew No. 4, Bai Lian drew No. 3, Pixiu drew No. 2, and Orchid drew No. 6.
After the results of the lottery came out, King Lanling twitched the corner of his mouth, but he did not dare to provoke Bai Hu this time.
And Orchid was already crying.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuah! I'm so pitiful. I appeared behind the white tiger boss twice. Do I still have a chance to survive?" Lanhua pretended to be pitiful.
"It's okay, Buddha said, if I don't go to hell, who will."
"Sacrifice yourself and bring happiness to millions of families."
"Well done to Orchid. You stood up when the people needed you most. We will remember you." Peony, Bailian, and Pixiu all expressed sympathy for Orchid and took pleasure in his misfortune.
"Bah, bah, bah! These inhumane guys." Lanhua scolded with a smile.
.....
After the lottery is drawn, there is still one day of rehearsal time.
On the 20th, the second round of the resurrection competition was officially recorded. After getting ready together, the host Li Hao gave the opening speech, and then King Lanling came on stage.
King Lanling sang a rock love song, and his performance was quite explosive, winning a lot of applause and high praise from several judges. In the end, King Lanling’s first song received 478 votes.
A very high number of votes. But this time, King Lanling didn't say anything. He just bowed and silently stepped down.
Many spectators at the scene were delighted.
"Okay, Prince Lanling has learned to be smarter this time and won't provoke the White Tiger boss."
"Wise choice."
"You're so smart, you're just a coward."
"That's for sure! Isn't it enough that I was beaten last time? Fortunately, it's not a 1v1PK elimination match, otherwise King Lanling would have been eliminated."
"But let me tell you something, Prince Lanling is really strong. Who can control that rock song just now?"
"Indeed, Prince Lanling still has two brushes."
.....
It meant that Prince Lanling couldn't hear the comments from the audience, otherwise he would have snorted coldly, but he wouldn't be cowardly. He admitted that he was a little wary of Bai Hu now, but it was just wariness, far from being cowardly.
Look, if he and Bai Hu enter the finals together, he will definitely give Bai Hu a surprise.
I just don’t know if Bai Hu can handle this surprise.
"snort!"
...
After King Lanling stepped down, Wang Xuan appeared.
King Lanling did not provoke him this time, so Wang Xuan did not specifically target King Lanling. He chose a ballad, a song that he had wanted to sing on this stage for a long time.
everything's ready.
While the audience was waiting for the soundtrack to start, Wang Xuan had already started singing a cappella:
"Nothing can stop"
After Wang Xuan finished singing the first line, the soundtrack started playing. It was a light soundtrack with a very peaceful melody. Then the name of the song was revealed on the big screen behind the stage: "Blue Lotus".
Wang Xuan’s singing voice then sounded:
"Your yearning for freedom
A fantastic career
Your heart is free from worries
Through the dark years
I also felt hesitant
The moment you lower your head
Only then did I realize the path under my feet.”
These two verses are not rushed together. Every time Wang Xuan sings a line, an interlude will sound. Paired with Wang Xuan's calm and peaceful voice, it seemed to be filled with a sense of Zen, singing directly into the hearts of countless people.
"Sounds good!"
"Just listening to these two verses, you know that this is definitely a king-level song."
"This song feels a bit Zen-like. I had some problems at work recently. I was a little upset at first, but when I just heard these two verses, my restless heart immediately calmed down."
Not only the audience was discussing, but Gu Jiahui and others were also discussing.
"Is this a folk song?" Li Yiqun asked a little uncertainly.
"It's definitely a ballad. But it feels like it should be an inspirational ballad." Wang Banbi said.
"How to say?"
"You can tell by the title of the song. Blue lotus, also called water lily, is a perennial flower of the class Dicotyledonidae and Nymphaeaceae. Among them, there is a water lily that blooms blue-purple flowers, which is usually what everyone calls the blue lotus. . This kind of flower likes to grow in a place with enough sunshine, and its heart is bright." Wang Banbi explained.
"Actually, there are several legends about the blue lotus. The first one is that there is a blue lotus on the snowy plateau, commonly known as the blue lotus, which can bring the dead back to life. There is only one flower, and it blooms only once in five hundred years. .
Another kind, it is said that before every woman reincarnates, the Buddha will give her three lotus flowers as a choice. The red lotus represents wealth, the white lotus represents beauty, and the blue lotus represents wisdom.
A woman who chooses a red lotus is like a vine on a towering tree. The fleeting glory and wealth cannot change the fate of the tree falling and scattering; a woman who chooses the white lotus will have a beauty that will overwhelm the country, but it is inevitable that she will become an accessory. ; And the blue lotus is not a flower of the world. Only women who have the vision to choose it will become a rare goddess in the world, with no vines or branches in the turbulent flow of material desires, and a graceful and pure plant.
The last one, it is said that there is a blue lotus that never fades growing in Xiyun Mountain. Anyone who sees the blue lotus will be happy. There is also a saying among monks that monks who have seen the blue lotus will eventually become a generation of eminent monks. "Gu Jiahui interrupted.
"What kind of legend does the song "Blue Lotus" written by Mr. White Tiger lean towards?" Liang Xiaoru asked.
"The third type. Everyone should know that the lotus flower is actually inextricably linked to Buddhism. Whether it is where Tathagata Buddha sits or where Avalokitesvara stands, there are thousands of lotus flowers. It symbolizes holiness, solemnity and solemnity. . So Bai Hu’s song "Blue Lotus" has a calm melody, calm lyrics, and Bai Hu’s singing voice is calm and has a strong Zen feel. It is definitely more inclined to the third legend." Gu Jiahui said.
that's the truth.
"Blue Lotus" was written, composed and sung by Xu Wei in another time and space. The original intention of the creation was to write it to Master Xuanzang, a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty, to express his respect for Master Xuanzang. This song does not have any exciting melody, but it has a strong Zen flavor, which makes the listener feel calm and peaceful. It not only shocked countless people, but also brought strength to countless people.
"The free world in my heart
So clear and far away
Blooming and never fading
"Blue Lotus"
"Blue Lotus" is definitely a very inspirational song. When Wang Xuan finished singing this chorus, the audience all stood up and applauded Wang Xuan wildly.
Several judges immediately jumped on the case.
"F*ck! Awesome! Awesome! Is this a folk song?" Wang Banbi exclaimed.
"It's definitely a ballad, but the way it's sung is really awesome, and it actually sounds like rock and roll." Li Yiqun couldn't believe his ears.
"It's amazing! Boss Baihu's singing skills are really unmatched. It's obviously a ballad, but it's so powerful that it makes people feel infinite vitality and infinite hope." Wang Banbi said.
"Not only is his singing skills invincible, but his composition is also invincible. Mr. White Tiger's knowledge is so broad that he even touches on Buddhist culture. This song "Blue Lotus" will definitely not be composed by those who are not familiar with Buddhist culture. Such a Zen-like melody." commented Gu Jiahui.
