I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 566 What to Expect? (34)

"Sister Mi is in there?"

"Yes…"

Shen Liang looked at her and said, "Oh, you are dressed very... nicely..."

A black suspender dress, paired with a pair of diamond high-heeled sandals...

Rouba rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't you like seeing me wearing high heels?"

"Who said that..."

"I want to take off my shoes, but you won't let me..."

"That's a kind of fun... You don't understand," Shen Liang changed the subject: "Your boss wants to see you, are you nervous?"

“…Why did you mention me!?”

“We talked about You Are My Glory…”

“Why this play?”

"Then we can't talk about Eye of the Storm, that show is terrible!"

Rouba smiled subconsciously, then pinched him: "Don't say that, Eye of the Storm is a drama produced by our company!"

"The dramas produced by your company... are really unbearable to watch!"

“…I’m mainly filming dramas that are looking for me outside now.”

"Yes, your company only wants to make money..."

As he was talking, Shen Liang pushed open the door of the box, and then Rouba walked in... Seeing her in person, she immediately put on a smiling face: "Sister Mi!"

Yang Mi also put down her phone: "Rou Ba... come here quickly!"

Shen Liang did not go in, but said: "...You two can chat, I have to go back to live broadcast, my drama is about to be broadcast."

"Okay, you go to work first!"

……

Shen Liang wasn't kidding, "Lotus Tower" would be aired tonight and he would indeed be doing a live broadcast to promote it.

Starting from "Want to See You", every drama of Shen Liang has been the king of the same period...

"Honey Stewed Squid", "Joy of Life", "The Imperial Coroner"...

Whether it is online broadcast data or ratings, they are both in the top three of the year!
In particular, "The Coroner Granted by the Emperor" surpassed "Home and An" in terms of ratings and became the annual drama king. Last year, the top 25 dramas in terms of annual ratings were all CCTV dramas. Only "The Coroner Granted by the Emperor" and "Home and An" led Dragon TV to break through the siege and topped the list and ranked second...

Not only did it become a hit in mainland China, but it was also broadcast on TVB and renamed "The Witty Female Forensic Doctor". The ratings for the entire series were 34 points, ranking second in the year, second only to "Forensic Heroes 4"...

In addition, it was also broadcast in Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia!
So far this year, the TV drama with the highest ratings is "The Tour Inspection Team" which premiered in December last year, with an average rating of over 12, followed by "Starry Sea"...

"Starry Sea", a middle-aged Mary Sue drama starring Raymond Lam and Liu Tao, but the ratings are pretty good...

Both of these are dramas from Mango TV.

The ratings and reputation of "Ideal City", starring Sun Li, which was exclusively broadcast on Dragon TV, were mediocre...

——After the show started airing, the ratings kept falling for several days. It peaked on the first day, and then continued to be beaten.

Sun Li’s ten-year ratings myth was broken.

The main reason is that this drama is about cost estimators in the construction industry…

This thing is too niche!
The profession of cost estimator is hidden in the construction buildings. It is something that ordinary audiences have never seen, and many people have never even heard of it! Oh, back to "Lotus Building", it was originally scheduled to be broadcast on four channels...

But the policy does not allow it - four-channel simultaneous broadcast is not allowed!
Policy in 2015: The "4+X" policy was changed to "one drama, two satellite channels" - that is, a TV series can only be broadcast on two satellite channels at the same time.

"Lotus Tower" was finally broadcast jointly by Beijing Satellite TV and Dragon Satellite TV.

It is simultaneously available on the four major online streaming platforms: Tencent Video, iQiyi, Youku and Migu.

That’s right, Tencent failed to retain the exclusive broadcasting rights!

The main reason is that the prices offered by the other three companies are too reasonable...

The reason for all this is Shen Liang!

However, in the same period, there are "Children of the Qiao Family" (Zhejiang Satellite TV, Jiangsu Satellite TV), "Singing with You" (Mango TV)
In addition, there are web dramas such as "Yulouchun", "Heartbeat Source Plan", "North Drift South", and "Hello, Flame Blue"...

"Yulouchun", a new drama by Yu Zheng, will be exclusively broadcast on Youku;
"Heartbeat Source Project", starring Song Qian and Luo Yunxi...

"Northern Drift Southward", Feng Xiaogang's first finished product after switching to online drama...

"Hello, Flame Blue" Gong Jun and Zhang Huiwen...

There are still many opponents!
In fact, the traffic stars broadcast a lot of dramas every year. After "The Next Stop Is Happiness", Song Qian has broadcast seven or eight dramas. Except for "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" which she participated in, the others are ineffective. Gong Jun is even more ruthless. After "Word of Honor", every drama he starred in has failed.
However, no matter how badly it fails, ancient idol dramas can still be performed.

Of course, Shen Liang didn’t take these dramas seriously at all!

The only drama he is a little concerned about is "Sweeping Dark Storm", but this drama will not be aired until September.

……

"I was attracted to "Lotus Tower" because of the original novel. The copyright was originally owned by Huanrui, and I bought it at a high price. Then I asked Director Lou Jian to direct it. He is the director of "The Imperial Coroner"..."

"I don't really trust Huanrui's production standards. They are too good at watering down the plot. It can be finished in 40 episodes, but they insist on filling it up to 60 episodes... It's better for us to control it ourselves."

Shen Liang talked about "Lotus Tower" during the live broadcast...

Two episodes have been aired so far, and the ratings of both channels have exceeded 1, with Dragon TV at 1.2% and Beijing TV at 1.1%…

Set the best broadcasting record for the two major TV stations this year...

The online broadcast volume is still being counted, but it is certain to set a record - Weibo hot search #《莲花楼》爆了#
"For the fighting scenes... Mr. Dong Wei is the martial arts instructor. We used "Sword Rain" as a reference, but it has more special effects than "Sword Rain"... We found a game company for the special effects design... I just happened to know the special effects team of "Tian Ya Ming Yue Dao"..."

The opening scene of "Lotus Tower" is Li Xiangyi's battle against the Jin Yuanmeng...

Lou Jian’s camerawork is very solid. He hates the so-called sharp editing, where a distant mountain is zoomed in all of a sudden, fixed on the protagonist’s dead face, and then cuts to another distant view all of a sudden…

Worried that the audience wouldn’t be able to see the sharpness, they even added a “whoosh whoosh whoosh” sound effect…

"Look, we are awesome!" in capital letters

The building is different, it starts with a wide panorama, then cuts to a close-up, and finally a close-up...

Most importantly, Li Xiangyi’s fighting effects are supported by the special effects team of "Tian Ya Ming Yue Dao". The whole action is smooth and cool, giving a feeling of flowing water!
"Thank you for your support... In fact, the settings of "Lotus Tower" and "Nirvana in Fire" are very similar, both are the tragedy and song of the fall of geniuses... The difference is that no matter how Mei Changsu changes his appearance, he never wavers in his determination to seek justice for the Red Flame Army. Lin Shu does not blame himself, nor does he need to blame himself, because he was never wrong, but the selfish and brutal struggle for imperial power.

"Lotus Tower" is a little different. Although Li Xiangyi is also a genius, and the leader of the Four-Looking Sect, there are many disciples in the Four-Looking Sect, but few of them are looking forward to his return... So, he did not come back!"

"The world is like the flowing water, and I can let go of the vastness of life in a dream. If I can perform this, I will be successful..."

"Everyone, take your time to watch it... Don't forget "Life Events"..."

"Well, let's just chat briefly today. There's something..."

Shen Liang chatted for half an hour, and then... called Yang Mi. He wanted to know what to do tonight!

I'm secretly looking forward to it!
