Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 165 Thursday Couple
After making these phone calls, Quan Xuanhe's mind was completely focused on the script.

He now has two notebooks in his hands.

One is Squidward Games and the other is Goddess Advent.

Squidward Games is expected to air next year, and my memory accurately predicts it to be September next year.

Some people may wonder why it is filming so early when it will only be broadcast near the end of next year?

This is because the online OTT platform, which is invested by Netflix, has a different broadcasting method.

As we all know, South Korea adopts the model of filming and broadcasting at the same time. This is because the TV station adjusts the subsequent plot according to the broadcast, generally for the sake of stability. In most other places, the program is filmed before broadcasting.

After Netflix came to South Korea, it was natural for it to adopt the approach of filming and then broadcasting its film and television projects.

Because Netflix is ​​an online platform, the updating of its film and television resources is one of its advantages that makes it a breakthrough compared to other platforms. It directly uploads the entire series online instead of taking the form of weekly updates, saving the pain of catching up.

If the filming and broadcasting are continued in South Korea, it will go against Netflix's own online model. Netflix is ​​the financial backer, so the production company will naturally follow Netflix's model.

Updating all episodes at once is one of Netflix's early advantages.

Furthermore, Netflix also has the concept of scheduling.

Netflix has invested in many dramas, and it has to choose the appropriate broadcast time according to priority, importance, etc. It cannot be broadcast online directly after filming.

We need to find the right time to maximize profits and arrange the broadcast of the series reasonably.

So Squid Games was actually completed around October 2020, and it took nearly a year to schedule for broadcast.

Netflix's broadcast order also affects the actors in turn, resulting in a phenomenon where the filmed works may not be broadcast for a long time, extending the actors' idle period and affecting their career development.

The broadcast scheduling format is not unique to Netflix; all OTT platforms, such as Disney+, TVV, and WAVV, all use similar methods.

At this time, actors are in a very weak position in front of OTT platforms.

After filming, it takes a year and a half before it can be broadcast. Later changes in policies caused it to take another year and a half to shoot a drama, which greatly reduced the output of actors' filming.

From originally producing three or four dramas a year at most, it is now difficult to see even one drama a year, resulting in a greatly extended gap period, which is increasingly unfavorable for the rapid development of personal careers.

The epidemic and Netflix's invasion have caused too many chain reactions, changing the ecology of all aspects of the Korean film and television industry.

For Quan Xuanhe, he has nothing to worry about with these two dramas in hand, and his schedule this year is full.

Quan Xuanhe took a pen and started drawing. After sorting out the main things for this year, he relaxed.

I order takeout and watch a movie in the evening, and then call Chou Tzuyu for a long chat before going to bed.

Such a leisurely life is also very comfortable.

The next day, the nanny car was parked downstairs of his house early. After tidying up, Quan Xuanhe went downstairs and got into the nanny car, starting his busy business trip.

the other side.

Song Yuqi will be the substitute MC for the week that Quan Xuanhe is absent.

"Where's Xuan He? Why can't I see our Xuan He Ni?"

Song Yuqi had a bluffing look on her face, pretending to be aggressive towards Zhao Meiyan, but she failed in the next second. Seeing Zhao Meiyan's constipated expression, she couldn't help laughing.

Any embarrassing thing that happens in front of the camera can be turned into a meme and laughed at for a long time.

"Yeah!~"

Zhao Meiyan raised her hand, pretending to hit someone to scare her, telling her to stop laughing and teasing her.

“This is Miyeon-unnie’s Thursday couple.”

However, Song Yuqi didn't give her, her sister, any face at all and was still smiling. This made Zhao Meiyan very angry and she pushed her away in embarrassment.

She just thought that being an MC would allow her to chat for the rest of her life!

Song Yuqi smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into puppy-like shapes, and she waved her hand and said, "I've had enough fun."

Zhao Meiyan told her some things to pay attention to. Although Song Yuqi was sometimes quite lively, she was not confused at all when it came to serious matters. She was very measured and listened very seriously, and made a few witty remarks to tease her from time to time.

This week happens to be I-DLE's first comeback, so Song Yuqi was asked to fill in. As for the others, it would be difficult for them to be MCs.

"So you guys are always like this, unnie."

Song Yuqi looked at the photos of the two of them posted on the wall in the waiting room. When they were MCs, Zhao Meiyan and Quan Xuanhe would occasionally take photos. The crew would also take photos of the two of them, print them out and post them on the wall of the waiting room.

After a few months, there are quite a few photos. Dozens of them are posted on the white wall, which looks dazzling.

“Why haven’t I seen some of these photos?”

Song Yuqi stood at the side, looked up and looked at each one carefully, and asked casually.

"How is it possible that I have seen them all?"

Zhao Meiyan said helplessly that she found Song Yuqi really erratic, and the key was that she made her lose her temper and couldn't get angry even if she really did.

"Tsk tsk, look at this."

Song Yuqi pointed to a photo of the two of them being intimate with their faces almost touching, and took out her phone to take pictures.

Although there was nothing wrong with the video, this behavior made Zhao Meiyan quite nervous. She was afraid that she would make fun of her again, so she reached out to pull her.

"Why don't you send out such a good photo?"

Song Yuqi dodged, turned her head and looked at Zhao Meiyan with a smile, saying.

"You'll laugh at me again if you find out."

Zhao Meiyan looked at her and said with some resentment, "She is obviously the oldest, but she has no authority at all, which sometimes makes her very discouraged."

"how come."

Song Yuqi denied it outright and spoke with great confidence, as if it was a serious matter.

"It's a brand new week, and I'll be the MC this week."

The production team announced the substitute MC's matter on the website, so Song Yuqi didn't explain too much when she stood in front of the camera. She stood with Zhao Meiyan and greeted the camera with a smile.

"Hey, Yuqi, how does it feel to be the MC for the first time?"

Zhao Meiyan turned her head and asked with a smile according to the lines in the script.

"It feels a little different, a different experience."

At this time, fans who were watching the show in real time on the website specifically because of the two CPs were a little disappointed when they saw that it was not Kwon Hyun Hyuk. Quite a few of them turned off the show directly or switched to other channels.

The program team received real-time data backstage and was surprised to find that the number of viewers watching the live broadcast decreased at a steadily declining rate after the MC appeared at the beginning. Although the proportion was not large, it was enough to be clearly seen.

The fact that the number of people watching the live broadcast has decreased is enough to prove one thing.

The two of them are a real CP, with many die-hard fans and many audiences who like to watch it. Therefore, there are many viewers who come specifically to watch the two of them show their love.

The planning that began when the two took office last year has now come to light.

The influence of Thursday's couple is perfectly demonstrated at this moment.
