Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 476 Big Data is a Hot Topic! (13)

Uh…

Are Tomson Riviera apartments really that expensive?
"I looked at two properties, one for 1.5 million and the other for 2.83 million!"

Shen Yan was stunned: "Holy crap, are you crazy? How old are you?"

"The first unit is a ground-floor duplex, priced at 1.5 million yuan. There's also a top-floor duplex, with an area of ​​986.45 square meters..."

"...Why did you buy such an expensive house?"

Didn't you say that buying real estate is the best investment option?

Shen Yan was speechless: "Big sister, luxury houses have almost no room for appreciation!"

Tomson Riviera's current price is 23.8 yuan per square meter, and it will likely reach 27 yuan per square meter later... with very little fluctuation!
"Huh? What should I buy?"

"The best-selling properties are still high-end residences priced between seven or eight million and ten or twenty million..."

"...Okay, then I'll try a different neighborhood next time!"

Shen Yan suddenly remembered something: "Shanghai has implemented purchase restrictions to curb the real estate market... If you have money, you could buy Tencent stock..."

"I have fifty million!"

"...What endorsements have you taken on recently?"

“No,” Shi Shi explained, “The box office revenue sharing for ‘Finding Mr. Right’ has arrived, and so has the investment revenue sharing for ‘Go! Go! Boys’…”

Shen Yan nodded, and casually remarked, "Go! Go! Boys is indeed quite popular..."

"Hmm," Shishi added, "I heard they sold over a dozen television stations..."

……

"Go! Boys!" airs on Zhejiang TV...

Since its premiere, the show has consistently ranked first in viewership ratings within its time slot, and its online viewership has surpassed one billion during its broadcast period…

The key is that this drama has a lasting impact.

It's been almost two months since its premiere, and its online viewership still ranks among the top three on major video websites!

Okay, "Go! Boys" is a sitcom—it tells the hilarious story of five friends living under the same roof who are both down and full of energy.

According to the TV drama report, "Go! Boys" differs from traditional sitcoms in that it has bold and innovative film and television techniques, and the whole series has a strong variety show feel in terms of color scheme, scene, costumes and other packaging.

Each episode has a unified yet independent theme, and while it's surrounded by variety show elements, sassy humor, slapstick comedy, and a touch of melancholy, it also retains a down-to-earth, relatable feel.

Yes, the rating is very high!

After Zhejiang TV finished airing the first run, five other TV stations immediately bought the rights for a second run…

Many local TV stations also purchased the rights in the third round!
A successful sitcom is truly awesome.

For example, "My Own Swordsman" has always been a "darling" of the TV station and has always been highly favored.

Based on the existing statistics, it has been replayed no less than a hundred times!
"Go for It!" is vaguely considered to be the best domestic sitcom since "My Own Swordsman".

Unlike "iPartment"...

"iPartment" is a confirmed case of plagiarism.

There are too many stitches, to the point that the character's personality is completely inconsistent throughout!
A typical example is Hu Yifei—the character design borrowed from American TV series is seriously out of touch with reality, and the combination of various different roles creates a disjointed image.

"Go! Boys!" is an original drama series...

It's original, at least in this time and space!
It has a Douban rating of 8.8...

TV stations have to pay money to buy TV dramas!

In two months, "Go! Go! Boys" earned at least 80 million yuan—plus online rights…

As an investor in "Go Go Squid!", Shi Shi's salary was converted into investment, and her investment ratio was 30%... Of course, she has the right to receive dividends.

The profit after profit sharing is 2400 million!
In addition to a fixed salary of 200 million...

The show earned over 2600 million yuan.

Furthermore, there's a high probability that they'll continue selling broadcasting rights...

This means there will be further revenue sharing later.

As for "Finding Mr. Right", she signed a contract for 8% of the box office revenue – only box office revenue.

That's over 20 million!
That's why Shi Shi had the courage to go shopping at Tomson Riviera!

……

Hotel, room.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and their passion ignited; they spent a long and tender time together...

Shi Shi fell into a deep sleep, but Shen Yan wasn't sleepy at all...

I simply turned on my tablet and started watching "House of Cards".

House of Cards has recently become a huge hit.

Shen Yan certainly knew about this show. To be objective, the first two seasons were alright, especially the first season. The main plot was basically copied from the British version of "House of Cards." The screenwriter of the British version of "House of Cards" was himself a political figure, so the details of the political struggles were described more clearly. The American version screenwriter mainly added some American-style details.
The second season started to go astray, but it was still within a certain reasonable range. However, American-style details began to overdo it and overshadow the main theme.

By the third season, since it didn't copy the source material at all and was purely a matter of the writers letting their imaginations run wild, it became garbage.

However, the main purpose of domestic media promoting "House of Cards" is to hype up the concept of big data.

Various claims have been made about how Netflix discovered "House of Cards" through big data, and how they invited David Fincher to create a classic!
To be honest, purely from the perspective of the works themselves, Netflix's stuff, at least the vast majority of its shows, is very distinctive, with clear characteristics of the creators themselves. I really don't see any trace of big data. On the contrary, Hollywood popcorn blockbusters are more like big data...

A group of domestic film studios, especially major internet companies, may have initially only thought of using 'big data' to enter the market…

After all, traditional film studios have people and resources, while internet companies are outsiders.

How do outsiders get involved?

Raising the banner of big data and IP...

I never expected that I would actually fool myself!
A prime example is Ali Pictures, which actually used big data to make several movies—"The Ferryman," "Once Upon a Time," etc.

The CEO of Nintendo said something to the effect of: low-quality products can still sell if they are discounted and promoted, but if the quality of games is poor, no one will want them even if they are given away for free!

The reason is simple: playing games requires a time investment!

The same applies to movies and TV dramas...

Even if you give away terrible movies and TV shows for free, nobody will watch them!

In fact, David Fincher took on "House of Cards" for two reasons: firstly, he was interested in it; secondly, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" was a box office flop.

"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is the first book in the "Millennium" trilogy by Swedish mystery novelist Stieg Larsson.

The first film is *The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo*, the second is *The Girl Who Played with Fire*, the third is *The Girl Who Stirred Up a Hornet's Nest*...

Unfortunately, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" had a mediocre box office performance and market response, and there was no sequel!

Moreover, he had a falling out with Sony, and the Steve Jobs biography was sacked. However, Sony couldn't keep the Steve Jobs biography either, and it was sold to Universal...

In fact, traditional studios don't really like someone like David Fincher—he's disobedient and there's no guarantee his personality will lead to success.

In comparison, traditional studios prefer actors like J.J. Abrams, who are talented but also more profitable!
J.J. Abrams' "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" still holds the title of the highest-grossing film in North American history with $9.35 million.

After watching "House of Cards" for a while, Shen Yan fell into a deep sleep...
