There are many ways to make money in the entertainment industry.
The most awesome thing is that you can make money standing up, and the works you produce can be appreciated by both refined and popular people. They have a high reputation and are liked by many people. Usually when such works come out, they are basically masterpieces, such as "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Titanic".
The next best thing is to make money on your knees. The work is extremely popular, but the person who filmed it knows it, and the audience also knows it in their hearts. Everyone just watches the fun, but in fact the quality of the work is only that. I won’t talk about the typical representatives, everyone knows it in their own minds.
"The Best in the World" is not up to the previous level.
But the height of the final episode alone puts this show out of the realm of making money on its knees.
Because it is obvious that the ending of "The Best in the World" is not a mainstream finale.
It explores the complexity of human nature and makes it clear that a wise king is not necessarily a traditional gentleman. The person who laughs last is often in a gray area.
The artistic height of the entire show was instantly raised to a new level.
Of course it's not particularly good, but among domestic dramas, this change is amazing.
And domestic audiences are actually very tolerant.
Therefore, after the broadcast of "No. 1 in the World", its reputation unexpectedly exploded.
Many viewers were particularly moved after watching it.
"The beginning of four stars, the process of three stars, and the ending of five stars."
"I came here specifically to revise my review. This drama deserves five stars."
"I never expected that a martial arts drama would capture something that historical Machiavellian dramas would not dare to capture."
"Any wise king has two sides, but the classic images of emperors created by the so-called historical machinations dramas are all great and upright, without flaws. Who would have thought that the one who respects the audience's intelligence the most is Wang Jing."
"I hope all practitioners will learn from "The Best in the World". The audience is not glassy. There is no problem in promoting positive values, but don't ignore reality."
Yue Guan clearly felt the success of the role of the little emperor.
The night after the final episode aired, he received numerous congratulatory text messages.
Among them are many seniors in the industry.
You know, before this show, there was no successful example of an imperial character in a gray area like the Little Emperor.
The classic emperor characters created by Tang Guoqiang, Chen Daoming, Chen Baobaoguo, etc. are all positive characters who are wise, powerful, loving and caring for the people. There are no shortcomings at all, and the failure cases recorded in the history books are not even mentioned.
Yue Guan took this risk and became the first person to eat crabs. Now he has won the applause of the whole house. This is what he deserves.
These seniors also had to be convinced.
The next day, Yue Guan got the ratings report.
The ratings of the last episode exceeded 9, which undoubtedly led the domestic dramas this year.
"Very good result."
Mo Xiangwan glanced at Yue Guan and corrected: "It is very good. It is no longer the past. The Internet is becoming more and more developed. It is no longer possible to have the 30% to 40% ratings in the past. Even if it breaks 10, it is basically Impossible, and the further it goes, the more impossible it becomes. The ratings of "The Best in the World" have basically reached the limit of the current ratings."
Yue Guan shook his head: "It's not that exaggerated. The average ratings of "The Best in the World" are only between 6 and 7. There is still a possibility of breakthrough. If nothing else, our company's "Love Through Time" is expected to break through To lose this ratings, the prerequisite is to be bought by CCTV. After all, CCTV dramas now come with a 3% ratings bonus."
"The post-production of "Love Across Time and Space" has been completed, and we are in contact with CCTV, but it has not been finalized yet. Also, we are negotiating for the second-round broadcast rights of "The World's No. 1". Wang Jing hopes that you can accept more interviews recently. , and it is true that many reporters want to interview you, including many variety shows that are inviting you."
This request was difficult to refuse. Wang Jing gave him face, so he had to return the favor. Moreover, the higher his reputation, the easier it would be to sell "Love Through Time".
Yue Guan thought for a while and said to Mo Xiangwan: "Forget about the variety show, let the reporters come, just treat it as a press conference."
Although it's a bit of a fuss, it's okay not to accept interviews all the time. He hasn't accepted any interviews with reporters since he became famous. When Mo Xiangwan released the news, many reporters were interested.
Mo Xiangwan set the time for the next day to give reporters and Yue Guan a chance to prepare.
When celebrities speak to the public, their agents have to prepare manuscripts. There are too many uneducated celebrities. If celebrities were allowed to express themselves freely, Dr. Zhai and his ilk would abound.
Fortunately, Yue Guan made Mo Xiangwan feel at ease. Not to mention how high his business quotient was, at least he was much better than the artists she had led before.
The next day.
Yue Guan didn't wear much makeup and appeared at the press conference with Mo Xiangwan.
A lot of reporters came, from print media, online platforms, TV stations, and everywhere.
Noise was inevitable, but fortunately everyone basically knew the rules. Mo Xiangwan had experienced many such occasions. Five minutes later, everything went on track and the questions officially started:
"Hello Yueguan, I heard that you participated in "The Best in the World" because of Gao Yuanyuan's recommendation. Is it true?"
"yes."
"Then what is your relationship with Gao Yuanyuan?"
"good friend."
"It is said that you are very close on the set, are you just good friends?"
Mo Xiangwan frowned and interjected: "I won't ask any more questions after I answered them. Let's move on to the next question."
The reporter was very disappointed, but he did not dare to offend Yue Guan and Mo Xiangwan, so he could only change the topic:
"Yue Guan, the emperor you played has received rave reviews, and the audience's love even exceeds that of several leading actors. Is there anything you want to say?"
**Naked provocation.
Yue Guan answered calmly: "Thank you for the audience's love. I will continue to work hard."
"Many people say that the emperor you played is better than Chen Daoming, Chen Baoguo and others. Do you agree with this view?"
Journalists are reporters, as long as the world is not in chaos.
Mo Xiangwan was ready to answer this question for Yue Guan, but Yue Guan took the initiative to speak: "I know both teachers. I went on stage and asked them what to do if a reporter deliberately provoked our relationship. The two teachers said that was not possible. Journalists are also human beings. , not a dog, it seems the two teachers are still too kind."
The reporter who asked the question: “…”
Mo Xiangwan was a little worried. Yue Guan answered so disrespectfully, and the reporters' questions would become more and more disrespectful.
She turned her head and reminded Yue Guan in a low voice.
Yue Guan gave Mo Xiangwan a reassuring look.
Mo Xiangwan is good at everything, but he believes too much in the goodness of human nature.
No matter how much Yue Guan gives reporters face, the questions they ask will not be gentle.
If you don’t explode the mentality of celebrities, what will reporters make headlines
In the era of entertainment explosion, reporters would directly ask Hong Jinbao if he was Fat Bing’s godfather.
When it comes to which celebrity in the entertainment industry has the best relationship with reporters, the leader and the fat soldier rank at the top two. They are willing to spend money on reporters.
Then, their black manuscripts were everywhere.
Don’t count on reporters’ integrity.
Instead of working hard to please reporters, it is better to imitate Zhao Zhetian and become a capital boss and kill the spread of news that is not beneficial to you directly from the source.
This is called dimensionality reduction attack.
Moreover, he is actually tougher backstage. Li Ruotong's thighs were not made in vain, nor was his golden body made in vain some time ago.
In a word, it is already the 30-year Hexi stage. He is here to show off, not to show off as a grandson.
