Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 297 Celebration Banquet

"Day and Night" was not pushed out, but "Swordsman" was suddenly launched without any warm-up.

Including Miaobi Chinese website, a total of five websites simultaneously released the serialized works, which can be regarded as a historical feat of not small magnitude.

On the first day of publishing the book, Zhou Hao, who had too much manuscripts in stock, just went all out and published 100,000 words in one go, satisfying the readers.

Anyway, he is not relying on the website's recommended traffic now, so there is no need to control the number of updates according to the process. It is entirely up to him whether he likes to update frequently or not.

This wave of 100,000-word updates directly made book fans cheer.

It’s really the New Year!

After enjoying the book, people naturally would not be stingy with the gold coins in their pockets, and soon a large number of rich people appeared on major websites to give rewards.

On Miaobi Chinese Website, the former publisher, the book achieved 100 alliances just one hour after it was published, which amazed countless authors.

Even without any publicity, the launch of a new book can create such a buzz... It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others!

However, on the other four websites, the popularity of "Swordsman" is not impressive.

After all, the website's operating direction is different, and this kind of slow-paced martial arts book really has no audience on those fast-food websites that specialize in violent and exciting novels.

However, no one dared to say anything sarcastic, because everyone knew that Zhou Hao was an "all-rounder" monster. Hot-blooded and exciting novels were his specialty. Who knows, one day he might write a hot-blooded fantasy novel and sweep the entire market.

However, in the traditional martial arts circle, this book has caused quite a stir...

When Zhou Hao got up early the next morning, there were already several missed calls on his mobile phone, most of which were from Zhang Hong.

After washing up and waking up, Zhou Hao unlocked his phone and called back, "Sister Hong, is there something you want to talk to me about?"

"Since last night, people have been asking me about the film and television rights of "Swordsman". My phone is almost blown up... Can you tell me first, are you planning to sell the rights or keep them for yourself?" Zhang Hong asked.

The ideal situation, of course, would be to shoot it himself, but Zhou Hao knew that this was not realistic in the short term.

The market for traditional martial arts dramas is in an even more embarrassing situation than that of martial arts novels, and most people simply can't make it.

Martial arts films require real punches and bloody swords, and the plot must be tense and the fights must be entertaining. Only then can it be considered a qualified martial arts drama. But the reality is - how many actors in the circle today can really fight?
As the older generation of action stars are getting older, there is almost no successor. Just posing on the green screen and using a fan and computer special effects can create cool fighting scenes. Why do we still have to shoot real fight scenes?
Not to mention action actors, even the living space for martial arts directors is very small these days. If you want to complete the filming of a martial arts drama... it is difficult in all aspects.

Without strong appeal and confidence, no one would be willing to take on such a drama, let alone buy it.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these people are scrambling to bid for the copyright of "Swordsman". After they get it back, it will definitely be changed into a strange "alien". There will definitely be no martial arts flavor. The fighting scenes are just camera rotation and slow motion frame selection, and the largest proportion of the content is still cheesy love drama.

A loves B, B loves C, C loves D, and then D falls in love with A...

Such a good drama can be changed so much that even the original author can’t recognize it.

Thinking of that industrial saccharine version of “Swordsman” by that dead girl from the next earth, Zhou Hao felt a chill down his spine.

After thinking for a while, he replied: "I can't shoot this drama for now, let's talk about it later. If others want to buy it, it's fine, but the prerequisite is that the other party is reliable enough, otherwise I would rather let it be temporarily sealed."

Zhang Hong was an old hand after all, and understood Zhou Hao's worries in a second, "Okay, then I understand... By the way, I have something to tell you, Hongdou has already left, and the flight is this morning." "What?" Zhou Hao was shocked, "Didn't they say it would take two days?"

"She lied to you on purpose." Zhang Hong sighed, "She is just like that. She doesn't like the kind of sticky farewell scene, so she doesn't want you to see her off at the airport, so she just left early."

Zhou Hao fell silent for a moment, feeling empty inside.

Although I knew she was going to leave, I still feel a little uncomfortable now that she has really left.

It is very likely that she will be gone for two full years...

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Hao felt unwell all over the day.

It was not until the evening that Xu Lingyue, who had settled down there, called him from overseas. After talking for two hours, he finally cheered up.

Just leave, now you can focus on your career!
On the 18th day of the first lunar month, Zhou Hao packed his luggage and flew to Shanghai to attend a celebration banquet held by Penguin Video here.

"Day and Night" has achieved an almost exaggerated result and has become a super hit. It is said that the second round of broadcasting rights have been snapped up. Not only are several streaming media websites vying for the second round of broadcasting qualifications, but even several leading satellite stations are also trying hard to contact Penguin Video.

For the entire industry, the significance of this drama is not just how much money it made, but it showed everyone the infinite possibilities of online dramas - online dramas can also gain fame and fortune, online dramas can also compete for authoritative awards, and online dramas can also be broadcast on satellite TV...

The huge success of "Day and Night" is like a shot of stimulant for streaming platforms that are eager to compete with traditional TV dramas!

Penguin Video and Shanhai Film and Television have also been enjoying great success recently, with their stock price valuations skyrocketing...making their peers envious.

So Penguin was not stingy at all in hosting this celebration party, and it was held in a grand manner.

The best venue was chosen, the best ingredients and drinks were used, and all of the top entertainment media and well-known entertainment reporters from across the country were invited. Even many internet celebrities and KOLs received invitations.

It is said that the red envelopes for entertainment in this area alone would cost several million!
This is a huge investment!

On the night of the celebration party, the crew, who had not seen each other for several months, gathered again in the banquet hall which was packed with guests.

Under the focus of countless camera lenses, Zhou Hao, Liu Wei, Guo Chen, and Zhang Yunfeng raised hammers together and smashed them down heavily amid the crackling flashes of light.

The ice shattered, revealing a long string of golden numbers inside - 12 followed by a string of zeros.

A full 1.2 billion, this is the total number of views of "Day and Night".

For the online drama circle, this data is not the highest, but everyone knows that this is actually the highest record.

Because the people above it are all well-known super brushes.

This should be the first online drama with over one billion real views. This extraordinary achievement alone is enough to hold a celebration party.

After the ice-breaking ceremony, Zhou Hao was immediately surrounded by reporters.

As a result, the first question gave him a headache.
