According to everyone's habit, after finishing filming on Friday, they would gather together in the evening to watch that evening's updates before that obviously isn't the case today.
The shooting didn't end until nine o'clock.
However, we finally finished the filming on Friday, so we don’t have to come over to work overtime tomorrow.
Everyone said goodbye to each other and prepared to go back.
At this moment, Hu Siwei suddenly shouted excitedly.
Everyone looked towards him.
Hu Siwei said: "Tonight, the real-time viewership peaked at over 3%!"
Everyone at the scene cheered.
Lu Yanhe also waved his arms, very excited.
Hu Siwei said with a smile: "Everyone, let's keep working hard. We have already won the bonus of breaking 3, so how far will it be to break 4?"
The cheers at the scene became louder.
In the TV series "Friends", only Bai Jingnian and Lu Yanhe received dividends, while other actors and staff received bonuses.
You will get the corresponding bonus amount based on the score you get.
Of course, different people have different bonus systems.
But no matter what, "Friends" is the first TV series to include drivers and stagehands in the bonus system. As long as they are formal staff members of the crew, rather than those who come to help temporarily, there is a corresponding bonus system.
So, the better the performance of "Friends", the more income everyone gets.
This point was discussed by Lu Yanhe and all the main creative staff with Yuehutai.
This also means that Yuehu TV's personnel expenditure on this drama must be higher than other film and television drama projects. However, as Lu Yanhe emphasized at the time, the creation of a drama is not enough for a few core creative staff to pay attention to it. Its final presentation quality has always been the result of the collective.
In fact, when the peak ratings of the drama broke 3, Yuehu TV no longer had any position or reason to question the design of the bonus system.
Including CCTV, there has not been a drama with a peak rating of over 3 in several years.
"This is the charm of sitcoms. It will only become more and more popular as long as you don't commit suicide." Hu Siwei said with a smile. The last sentence made many people at the scene smile knowingly. "Everyone, keep working hard. We still have a long way to go in the future. Let it not only represent our careers, but also provide the strongest material foundation for our lives, our real lives. Yes, I said it in a cheesy way."
At this moment, the cheers and screams from the scene reached the sky.
-
"Maxine's number of viewers has exceeded 800 million, and the number of people who have watched more than one episode in full has reached 517 million."
Zhong Benshuo would come to tell Lu Yanhe about the latest performance of "Friends" on Maxine every week without fail.
His perseverance almost made Lu Yanhe let down his guard against him and think that he "didn't want to cooperate directly with him" several times.
Of course, in the end, I will be awakened by the memory of that time in the small room in Korea.
"Thank you for promoting "Friends." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.
Maxine interviewed the "Friends" crew online in both of her talk shows to promote this Chinese drama.
These are also the two important nodes where the number of people watching "Friends" on Maxine showed irregular growth.
"This drama has a great chance of reaching the 20 million club," said Zhong Benshuo. "Moreover, it has also helped push all three seasons of Friends into the top ten in terms of viewership in Asia this week. Yan He, you must have a script that hasn't been made public yet. Come on, let's work together."
"Boss Zhong, Maxine and I have been working so closely together." Lu Yanhe smiled, "Look, we have Friends, The Seventeenth Floor, and what else? Oh, yes, and River of Silence. I am also writing the script for the second season of River of Silence. That's enough. Maxine's audience must be tired of me."
"My God, you are one of the most popular faces on the Maxine platform now. How can people get tired of you?" Zhong Benshuo paused, "I see, you want me to express my determination for this cooperation to you in person."
"No, I'm busy enough now. Seriously, Mr. Zhong, the next projects I'm going to work on are "Legend of Swordsman", "Chinese Paladin", and a few movies. Almost all of them are based on traditional Chinese culture, which is not the type you like." Lu Yanhe said, "I also need to calm down. I'm about to board the plane. Let's talk later."
Zhong Benshuo could only sigh and say okay.
"I have to say, if anyone has the same perseverance as Zhong Benshuo, it would be strange if he didn't succeed." Lu Yanhe was convinced.
Chen Ziyan smiled and flipped through the magazine in her hand.
This is the magazine provided by the airport VIP lounge, the latest issue of "Vogue".
"Garbo is very generous. She has put Jiang Yuqian on the covers of three major first-tier magazines recently. Here comes another one, and it's the year-end issue." Chen Ziyan pointed at Jiang Yuqian on the cover. "Even if the box office performance of the second part of "Behind the Golden Coat" is average, only on par with the first part, and it doesn't break 100 million, it won't affect it at all." Lu Yanhe: "The cost of this movie itself is not high, and it is a mainstream film. It is very good to have a box office of more than 80 million. Moreover, the word of mouth is still very good, not worse than the first part. This is already very good, isn't it? The market has been so sluggish recently, and it's no wonder that the movie box office didn't break 100 million."
“The Lunar New Year blockbuster movie has become so unpopular now.” Chen Ziyan lamented.
"The market was sucked away by the Spring Festival period." Lu Yanhe laughed.
"It's a pity that you don't have any movies for the Spring Festival this year."
“Then try to go next year.”
"Buzz-"
Chen Ziyan looked down at her cell phone that was vibrating several times and opened it.
"The nomination list for the Blue Ribbon Awards is out. Wow? Yan Liang is actually nominated for Best Actor this time?" Chen Ziyan showed a surprised expression.
Lu Yanhe was also stunned.
"What's going on? Didn't Yan Liang apply for the Best Supporting Actor award?"
He was previously nominated for the Golden Tripod Award for Best Supporting Actor.
In "The Gold Rush", he plays the second lead and can apply for supporting role projects. Moreover, according to the competition situation this year, he has a good chance of winning the Best Supporting Actor award of one of the three major awards.
Therefore, Yan Liang’s application idea for this year’s award is to go for the Best Supporting Actor category.
"Is it a mistake?"
Lu Yanhe took a screenshot and sent it to the three-person group, @ed Yan Liang, and asked: Congratulations, but why was he nominated for Best Actor?
It has been analyzed before that given Yan Liang's age, qualifications, and his performance in "The Gold Rush", it is unlikely that he will compete for the Best Actor award.
Choose between a Best Actor with little chance of winning and a Best Supporting Actor with a high chance of winning, I will definitely choose the latter.
Nominations are always just the icing on the cake; winning an award is the real deal.
Yan Liang: I don’t know what happened. We had agreed to apply for the Best Supporting Actor, but I don’t know how it became the Best Actor category. I’m asking about the situation.
Li Zhibai: Don’t all applications for awards require the person’s signature?
Yan Liang: Some awards require it, some don’t. The Blue Ribbon Award does not require the applicant’s signature. Only the applicant’s signature is required.
Li Zhibai: You suddenly went from being a favorite to win the award to a runner-up.
Lu Yanhe: Don’t tell me that I was deliberately tricked by someone.
While they were discussing here, netizens also had different opinions on the nomination list for the Blue Ribbon Awards.
Because the works and individuals nominated for the Blue Ribbon Award this time are very different from those for the Golden Tripod Award.
There is actually not much difference in nominations for the three major awards, and the winners will generally avoid each other a little.
As for the Blue Ribbon nomination list this time, it is almost all composed of dramas that have received particularly good reviews from the audience.
It is clear that the Golden Tripod Award is positioned for audience recognition, while the Blue Ribbon Award is positioned for artistry, but now it seems as if the positions have been reversed.
Of course, the audience loved it.
Because the nomination list includes all the dramas that have been truly praised and liked by everyone on social media in the past year.
After a while, Yan Liang updated the group with the latest news from his side: Blue Ribbon suggested that my role should be nominated for Best Actor, so some changes were made in the end.
Li Zhibai: Blue Ribbon...what is this doing?
Lu Yanhe: If you look at the nomination list, this year’s Blue Ribbon is not really a Blue Ribbon.
However, no one expected that two hours later, Jiang Mingzheng, who had won the Red River Award for Best Actor, suddenly posted a Weibo:
—— "River Rises", which won three Golden Tripod Awards, didn't even get a single nomination at the Blue Ribbon Awards? I don't understand.
As a big name in the industry and a talented actor, he openly questioned the Blue Ribbon Award.
This was like a bomb that directly exploded the social network.
In this day and age, we are not afraid of others who like to stir up trouble, but we are afraid of having nothing to do.
