Chapter 202 Shanshan is here to eat
Yesterday was the premiere day of “My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart”. Based on past experience, the ratings for the premiere of “My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart” will be released today.

Although "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" has only 33 episodes, the box office for each episode is as high as 1.5 million.

With nearly 50 million yuan in funds for purchasing the film, the station’s leaders attached great importance to this drama.

"The price of TV dramas has really gone up like crazy this year. Last year, a quality drama could be bought for one million per episode, but this year it has soared to 150 million. At this rate, it is estimated that it will exceed 200 million next year."

"Who says it's not true? This year, several Internet giants have entered the market and are all planning video playback platforms. The online broadcasting rights of high-quality dramas have also been raised to more than one million per episode."

"According to this calculation, the first broadcast rights and online broadcast rights of the drama "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" alone add up to nearly three million per episode. Doesn't this mean that Yang Hao can earn nearly 100 million from this drama?"

"Yang Hao is a bit weird. Not only does he make a lot of money from every movie he invests in, but he also has a keen eye for investing in TV series. Hasn't his company already started filming several TV series this year? We should pay close attention to them when the time comes."

"This year, Yang Hao is not the only one who is weird in the entertainment industry. The pay of celebrities is also weird. Last year, the pay of first-line celebrities was only about 300,000 per episode, but this year, it is not less than 500,000. Some top stars have been paid as high as 700,000 or 800,000 per episode. If the TV series has longer episodes, they can make 500 to 600 million per show."

……

Several senior leaders of Mango TV were chatting and discussing while waiting for the ratings of the first broadcast of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" to be released.

Last year, Yao Jia was in charge of film purchases for “Legend of Lu Zhen”, and this year she is still in charge of film purchases for “My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart”.

But this year is very different from last year. Last year, Director Ouyang retired and Director Lu took office. At that time, Yao Jia had not yet flattered Director Lu, fearing that her position would be lost. But this year, she has already got in touch with Director Lu.

Even if the ratings of "My Sweetheart, Come and Eat" are not good, it will not have much impact on her, so she is very relaxed and not as nervous as last year.

Of course, it would be great if the ratings of "My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart" could reach the level of last year's "Legend of Lu Zhen".

If that's true, maybe her position can be improved further.

Just when Yao Jia was fantasizing about the huge viewership of "My Sweetheart, Come and Eat" and getting a promotion and a raise in salary, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the office.

"Good news, good news, Director Yao, the ratings are out"

The confidant Xiao Ma knocked on the door excitedly, and after being answered, he walked in.

Seeing the excited expressions of his subordinates, Yao Jia already knew that the ratings of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" would definitely be high.

"Xiao Ma, don't say anything yet. Let me guess, has the ratings of 'Shan Shan Comes to Eat' exceeded 2?" Yao Jia guessed.

Last year, the ratings for the first broadcast of "Legend of Lu Zhen" exceeded 2. Seeing how excited his subordinates are, the ratings of "My Sweetheart, Come to Eat" will definitely not be lower than that of "Legend of Lu Zhen".

"Director Yao, you are amazing. Your guess is so accurate. The premiere ratings of 'Shan Shan Comes to Eat' just broke 2." As he spoke, Xiao Ma handed the ratings report to Yao Jia.

Yao Jia took the ratings report of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" and glanced down.

The peak ratings for the premiere were 2.09 and the average ratings were 1.57.

The peak ratings were similar to last year's "Legend of Lu Zhen", but the average ratings were 0.1 points higher.

This viewership rating is much higher than Yao Jia’s expectations.

Last year, "Legend of Lu Zhen" was on Weibo headlines many times because of the lawsuit with Yu Zheng, and the popularity was very high. This year's "My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart" was obviously less popular.

But even so, the ratings of "My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart" are better than those of "Legend of Lu Zhen".

This shows what?
This shows that the quality of "My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart" is better than "Legend of Lu Zhen", and it is more in line with the audience's taste, so the audience likes to watch it more.

“Oh! It would be great if Yang Hao still played the male lead in ‘My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart’,” Yao Jia sighed.

Last year, Yang Hao was just a rookie and it was no exaggeration to say that he was a little Kara-mi in the entertainment industry. However, this year, Yang Hao has directly risen to prominence, especially in recent months, his popularity on Weibo has exploded unprecedentedly. If Yang Hao starred in the drama "Come and Eat, My Love", the ratings would probably be much higher.

Yao Jia carefully looked at the ratings curve of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" again.

“Perfect, really perfect”

The ratings curve has not dropped since the show started airing, but has been rising all the way, with only a slight drop during the commercials.

Yao Jia has worked in the film purchasing department for more than ten years, so he is naturally very clear about the value of the first broadcast ratings of 2.09 and the average ratings of 1.57.

Today's ratings are no longer what they were 10 or 20 years ago, when they could easily reach 10 or 20 points.

You have to know that "The Legend of Zhen Huan", a phenomenal TV series that is rebroadcast every year, only had a viewership rating of 2.5 that year.

Judging from the premiere ratings of "My Sweetheart, Come and Eat", Yao Jia feels that this TV series has a chance to win the ratings championship this year.

Thinking of the ratings champion, Yao Jia's heart couldn't help but beat fast.

She would be the first to report this good news to the director. Thinking of this, Yao Jia picked up the ratings report and prepared to get up and walk towards the director's office.

Before leaving, Yao Jia did not forget to say to Xiao Ma: "You should immediately send this ratings report to Yang Hao's company."

"Okay, Director Yao," Xiao Ma obeyed the order and quickly sent the ratings report of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" to Yang Hao's company.

After receiving the ratings report of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat", Yu Li forwarded it to Yang Hao immediately.

"Ding", Yang Hao's cell phone rang crisply.

Yang Hao took out his cell phone, opened it and saw that the ratings report of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" was out.

Yang Hao is still very confident about the ratings of the drama "My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart". Except for the male lead, the drama is basically created by the original crew, so the probability of it becoming a hit is very high.

Click on the WeChat file and open the ratings report.

The first thing he saw was a ratings curve. This was not the first time Yang Hao had seen this kind of curve. It was easy to tell the ratings of "My Sweetheart, Mr. Love" from the graph.

The peak ratings for the premiere were 2.09 and the average ratings were 1.57.

Awesome! Really awesome!
This data is slightly better than last year's "Legend of Lu Zhen".

Yang Hao knew that after the show was broadcast, Zhao Liying's rise would be secure.
-
These days, Liu Shishi would pester Yang Hao to watch two episodes of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" every day, and after watching, she would pester Yang Hao to play a small game.

Under Yang Hao's training, Liu Shishi became really addicted, but she was very new to it. Every time she could only do it a few times, she would kneel down and beg for mercy.

A typical foodie and fun-loving person.

Liu Shishi was lying lazily on the bed, looking weakly at the ceiling, breathing heavily, and recovering her strength.

Suddenly, Liu Shishi saw out of the corner of her eye that Yang Hao was holding a mobile phone with a smile on his face like a chrysanthemum.

"What's the matter? Why are you laughing so happily?" While speaking, Liu Shishi turned sideways, rolled to Yang Hao's side, sat up, leaned her head and looked at Yang Hao's cell phone.

"Is this the ratings for the first broadcast of 'Shan Shan Comes to Eat'?" Liu Shishi was also knowledgeable. When she saw a curve chart magnified by Yang Hao, she knew what this thing was.

"2.09?" Liu Shishi easily saw a marked peak number "2.09" on the ratings curve.

Seeing this data, Liu Shishi almost screamed.

Liu Shishi glanced to the right again, and the average viewership was 1.57.

"This is outrageous!" Liu Shishi couldn't help but yell. This was too outrageous. She had watched the first two episodes of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat". They were really good and she thought it might be a big hit, but she never expected that the ratings would be so high.

This is just the ratings for the first episode, which is almost catching up with her famous masterpiece "Startling by Each Step". She can't even imagine what the final ratings of this drama will be.

Envy, jealousy, hatred, all kinds of emotions surged into my heart in an instant.

At this time, Liu Shishi was really jealous of the little girl Zhao Liying.

As her relationship with Yang Hao grew deeper, Liu Shishi had specifically learned about some of Yang Hao's situations.

We know that Zhao Liying was an artist signed by Yang Hao before he became famous. Many of Yang Hao's company's TV drama resources are tilted towards her. It is obvious that Zhao Liying is the artist that Yang Hao strongly supports.

At this moment, Liu Shishi even had a feeling that this little girl named Zhao Liying might even surpass herself in future achievements.

Thinking of this, Liu Shishi became more interested in Yang Hao's previous suggestion that she set up a company and then get Yang Hao and Tang Ren to invest in it.

Liu Shishi also knew that although she and Yang Hao had a close relationship, such relationships in the entertainment industry were the most unreliable, and they might fall out one day.

The most reliable relationship in the entertainment industry is still the relationship of interest.

I set up my own company and let Yang Hao invest in it, so that both parties could reach a mutually beneficial relationship. In addition, I am his good friend. With the blessing of this dual relationship, this is the most reliable.

Taking into account the interests, feelings, and physical factors, Liu Shishi snuggled in Yang Hao's arms and said tenderly,

"Honey, after this movie is over, I will return to Tangren and talk to Sister K about setting up a company."
-
"Shan Shan Comes to Eat" is really popular.

The most direct manifestation is frequent appearance on hot searches.

When I opened Weibo, I saw that nearly half of the top ten hot searches were related to Zhao Liying.

"The premiere of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" exceeded 2, and is expected to win the annual ratings championship"

"Zhao Liying's Food Collection"

"Zhao Liying designed her own cute little expressions for the drama "Shan Shan Comes to Eat""

"Zhao Liying in the behind-the-scenes footage of "Shan Shan Comes to Eat""

……

Zhao Liying's Weibo fans are also soaring, with the number increasing by several thousand or tens of thousands every time she refreshes the page. The speed at which she is gaining fans is terrifying.

Fans also actively commented on Zhao Liying's Weibo.

"Come on Yingbao!"

"Yingbao is so cute"

"Why didn't Ying Bao work with your boss on "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" this time?"

"I really like Ying Bao and Hao Ge's CP"

……

What Yang Hao didn’t know was that the sudden popularity of “Shan Shan Comes to Eat” made him even more attractive to a bunch of young stars in the entertainment industry who were still in school.

In the past, Yang Hao was only good at investing in movies, but these young actresses knew that this kind of movie resources were simply out of their reach.

Look at who are the heroines in Yang Hao’s movies nowadays, either Da Mimi or Liu Shishi. Compared with these top-notch actresses, they have no advantages at all.

But now it’s different. It seems that Yang Hao’s investment in TV dramas is as good as ever. The two dramas invested by Yang Hao, “Legend of Lu Zhen” and “My Sweetheart, My Sweetheart”, are both big hits.

When it comes to promoting people, TV dramas are better.

For these young actresses who have not yet graduated from school, acting in TV dramas is the most cost-effective way to make a living.

Moreover, in a TV series, there are often many important female characters, and their opportunities will be greater.

If you ask these young actresses now which company they would most like to sign with after they graduate from school, I guess a large majority of them would say Haori Film and Television Culture Media.

"Congratulations to Director Yang, the TV series is a big hit"

"Congratulations to Director Yang, the TV series is a big hit"

……

When he arrived at the crew, he met many people along the way, and they all congratulated Yang Hao.

During the time on the crew, the person who was most attentive to Yang Hao was probably Chen He.

Yang Hao also understood his thoughts. Chen He is actually a little embarrassed in the entertainment industry now.

You say he is famous, he is indeed famous.

But when asked about his representative works, it becomes awkward.

There are only "Love Apartment" 1, 2, 3, and 4.

When meeting fans on the street, many of them don’t know Chen He, they only know Zeng Xiaoxian.

Chen He has been so diligent these days, probably because he wants to see if he can find an opportunity for transformation from Yang Hao.

The crew's filming went smoothly today and they finished work on time at 6 o'clock.

"Director Yang, do you want to go out and play with us today? We have been in Thailand for so long, we should at least investigate the local customs and people." Just when the crew was finishing work and Yang Hao was about to return to the crew, Chen He took the initiative to come up to him. Xiao Shenyang and Xiao Yang were with Chen He.

"Human customs and practices?" Yang Hao was somewhat confused.

"When I come to Thailand, of course I have to go see the ladyboys and wash their feet," Xiao Shenyang explained with a smile.

"Xiao Shenyang, what you said is too vulgar. You are obviously looking at the prosperity of the world and washing the mud of the world." Chen He looked so mean and just spoke without thinking, making watching transsexuals and washing feet sound so elegant.

"She has a gambling dad, a sick mom, a school-age brother, and a broken girl. If I don't help her, who will?" Xiao Yang also said.

Yang Hao didn't want to go, but the three of them invited him so warmly that Yang Hao was somewhat tempted. He had never seen a shemale in his life.

Do you want to just come and see the ladyboys and come back?
Just when Yang Hao was about to agree, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Director Yang, didn't you say before that you would talk to me about something later?"

Although the relationship between Yang Hao and Liu Shishi was kept secret, no one is a fool and those who are interested can still roughly guess it. When they saw Liu Shishi coming, Chen He, Xiao Shenyang and Xiao Yang immediately scattered.

"Shishi, I was just about to reject them sternly, but I didn't expect you to come at this time," Yang Hao said righteously without blushing or beating his heart.

"Hmph! Guess whether I believe it or not?" Liu Shishi snorted coldly and rolled her eyes at Yang Hao.
