It seems their waiting during this period was not in vain!
Tianxing Entertainment's works are as reliable as ever.
Episodes 3 and 4 on the 23rd recounted Yang Guo's various encounters on Peach Blossom Island and with the Quanzhen Sect.
These two episodes left the audience feeling very uncomfortable, sensing that Yang Guo's initial experiences were truly tragic.
It was as if the whole world was against him.
However, at the end of the fourth episode, when Yang Guo learned that his father's killer was actually Guo Jing, he instantly understood many, many things...
The fourth episode ended right here.
This made countless viewers and netizens feel that the cutoff was too annoying.
Those who had read the original novel knew that the next plot was Yang Guo escaping into the ancient tomb, but it was cut off?
How could it not be uncomfortable.
On the 23rd, the average viewership ratings of Jinling and Modu Satellite TV both saw a significant increase, and without any surprise, continued to lead the ratings for the same time slot.
The rating for the return of the condor heroes on this day not only did not drop but actually rose by another point, reaching 9.3!
In the following days, until the 25th, as Yang Guo entered the ancient tomb and the various lives and interactions of the on-screen couple Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl unfolded, the viewership ratings continued to climb.
Even the rating stabilized at 9.3!
Everyone knew that Tianxing Entertainment's production of the return of the condor heroes this time was another success.
Envy? Sourness? Jealousy? Perhaps all of them.
However, they also deeply understood a truth, which is that even if this drama were given to them to film, it would be impossible to achieve the same quality and standard as Liu Xialai.
It's not that their directors' abilities are lacking, but rather that there are simply too many constraints.
No entertainment company would prioritize the quality of their works as much as Tianxing Entertainment!
What they want is to make money! What they want is to promote their own artists! What they want is popularity!
Of course, if all these are guaranteed, and they can improve the quality and create a classic, that would be even better.
However, it's also fortunate that Tianxing Entertainment is currently only flourishing in ancient costume wuxia dramas and has no intention of expanding its market.
These companies still have large markets like idol dramas, Xianxia idol dramas, and 'shenju' (divine dramas) to continue profiting from.
Moreover, from the perspective of external entertainment companies, the rise of Tianxing Entertainment's TV dramas is entirely due to Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng, the wuxia novelist.
If one day Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng suddenly can't write good works, or if audiences and netizens get tired of the wuxia drama genre.
Then Tianxing Entertainment's TV dramas might be exposed for what they truly are!
Therefore, although they felt sourness in their hearts, they were not overly hysterical, insisting on how it should be.
However, with Su Yu in music and film, and Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng in TV dramas, Tianxing Entertainment currently seems to have no weaknesses.
It's just unknown how long Tianxing Entertainment can maintain such a situation.
Furthermore, during this period, it seems that shareholders' enthusiasm for Tianxing Entertainment's stock has waned, and Tianxing Entertainment's stock has not risen for a long time.
It has even decreased somewhat.
Even though the return of the condor heroes is currently being broadcast with great popularity.
Such a scene also made other entertainment companies begin to gloat.
The market value of domestic entertainment companies all have a peak and an upper limit.
Based on their estimation of Tianxing Entertainment, Tianxing Entertainment is worth at most 120 billion chinese yuan.
200 billion is a joke!
Of course, if Tianxing Entertainment continues to expand its business and further improve its third-phase cinema chain, this market value might increase again.
But wanting to continue to increase market value by relying on TV dramas and films? That's unrealistic.
Perhaps after Tianxing Animation and Tianxing Special Effects develop and achieve some results, the market value will increase.
And this day seems to be close at hand.
The animated feature film monkey king: hero is back, co-produced by Tianxing Animation and Tianxing Special Effects, has entered the post-production phase.
Their production progress is even faster than planned.
According to Tian Peng and Ross's estimates, their feature film will be completed before September.
This is also because Tianxing Special Effects divided its technical personnel into several teams, each stationed at the four projects: monkey king: hero is back, let the bullets fly, the heaven sword and dragon saber, and Chu Ming's World.
If they had focused solely on monkey king: hero is back, the completion time might have been even earlier.
Although Tianxing Special Effects is currently very, very busy, with almost everyone working as two, and overtime being commonplace.
But for the special effects artists who came to China with Ross, only endless work can truly give them a sense of security!
It's not that they are naturally workaholics; it's just that the living environment for special effects professionals in their home countries is too harsh.
Often having no work has become a norm.
And no work means unemployment, and the cost of living in the United States is very high.
With income not covering expenses, they inevitably have to move out of their homes, eventually becoming homeless vagrants.
Simply because taxes are too high, if they don't have money, they can't even afford the annual property tax.
And after coming to China during this period, these special effects artists feel truly blessed.
Perhaps the earnings per single order are less, but the number of orders has increased.
Moreover, compared to the high cost of living in the United States, China is simply a paradise.
If they couldn't get a Chinese 'green card,' they would all want to naturalize here.
And their colleagues who didn't come with them at the time are now green with envy.
However, even if Tianxing Special Effects recruits new employees, they only recruit new talent with Chinese nationality.
Foreign special effects artists, unless they truly possess patents and technology, it's really difficult for them to get in.
Of course, they also worry that after teaching their apprentices, they themselves will be discarded once their usefulness is over.
But Ross's promise to them is that as long as they don't make fundamental mistakes, even if Tianxing Special Effects grows stronger in the future, they will not be maliciously fired.
Afterward, Tianxing Special Effects will establish a dedicated overseas business department, and these special effects artists from overseas will all work in this department.
This is certainly not an empty promise, because Han Jianhua told Ross exactly that.
Tianxing Entertainment is truly not a company that discards people after use, and the development of Tianxing Special Effects will not stop here.
Layoffs are impossible; they are too busy recruiting fresh blood to strengthen themselves.
On the 27th, the results of the ninth episode of the Four Nations Concert were finally released with much anticipation.
After a week of fierce competition, the ones who broke through from the second group were Piao Zhenshi and Ida Shoichiro!
Piao Zhenshi ultimately defeated Ida Shoichiro by an advantage of 3,000 downloads to secure second place in the ninth episode.
And Chu Daye, who ranked fourth, only lost to Ida Shoichiro by less than 2,000 downloads!
The competition for rankings in this ninth episode, in the eyes of the Four Nations audience and netizens, was truly exhilarating.
