Chapter 166 Gambling at Tomato Station
Chinese military films have always been niche, and they have a bad reputation in the eyes of the audience.
The perfect protagonist who is too tall and unearthy, the silly and sweet heroine, and other superior officers who seem to be NPCs have already made people think in a fixed way.
Even though Zhao Xinrong had fantasized that Wang Xiaole would not go through the ordinary path, before he saw this video, he never expected that Wang Xiaole would make the film like this.
Zhao Xinrong could not determine the audience's taste, but he could be sure that this film should be heading towards the upper limit, not the lower limit.
"Mr. Chen, the soldier assault has a total of 30 episodes. The package price is 80 million!"
Zhao Xinrong, who was broken through the psychological defense line, finally spoke first.
"This is impossible! The quotes of the Fairy Sword are all three million and five million!"
Chen Tianxing took the initiative at this time.
"How can this movie be compared with Legend of Sword and Fairy! The audience of the Fairy Tale drama is all-round!"
"Why can't you compare? That man doesn't have a soldier dream in his heart!"
Chen Tianxing is very honest.
"Don't female audiences look at men anymore? The characters in the Soldier Assault are remarkable, and they will also like them!"
The shopping mall game is a process of constantly testing the bottom line. Chen Tianxing's fatigue these days is no less than Wang Xiaole and the others who are struggling on the set.
Finally, when Shancheng TV and several second-tier TV stations of Yanjing TV heard the news and 6 arrived, Zhao Xinrong finally revealed the final price of Tomato TV.
"In the prime time, the total price is 100 million yuan, and the publicity cost is 10 million yuan!"
This price is close to the offer of Legend of Sword and Fairy.
Although the Legend of Sword and Fairy at that time was just a new drama, the price was not high, and it was also a mid-to-high-end offer in mainstream TV series at that time.
The price of this military drama Soldier Assault is already quite high. After all, it is much more niche than fairy tale dramas.
Li Xiangshan who received this news was a little unbelievable.
"This guy is a little capable?"
Wang Xiaole silently lit a cigarette.
In fact, the original soldier assault did not make much money for various reasons.
It only made a group of actors famous, and then made my group film my leader and my group really make them make money.
But Wang Xiaole is different. The success of the Legend of Sword and Fairy and the urgent mentality of Tomato Platform gave them a huge surprise.
Due to the strong support of the military and the various equipment did not spend much money, the investment in this drama was actually less than 30 million.
There are only two big investors, Chunqiu Entertainment and Xiaoma Film and Television. Due to the investment ratio, 434 Company can earn more than 40 million this time.
This greatly alleviated Wang Xiaole's current dilemma.
More importantly, Wang Xiaole proved to everyone that he could make money. In this case, the hidden pressure on venture capital companies is not that great. After all, no one will be unable to get over the real money.
"There are a few scenes in the end. Don't relax, shoot them well!"
Tomato Station was moving very quickly. When it reached an agreement with Chen Tianxing and the others, the TV station requested review from the relevant departments and began to arrange schedules.
Another investor who attacked the soldiers was the 6th Army Art Center. With the participation of the military, various approvals were naturally the green light.
"Damn, those guys from Tomato Station are crazy?"
The news in the entertainment industry is very well-versed. After the approximate price of soldier assaults spread, many people were shocked.
Thirty episodes of TV series, with a total price of 100 million yuan, and each episode is close to 3.3 million yuan, which is completely the price of mainstream TV series.
"Haha, let's wait and see how good Wang Xiaole is!"
Major TV stations have different reactions.
But most people want to take this opportunity to watch the tomato station jokes.
After Zhao Xinrong returned to the Demon Capital, another faction that was unwilling to fail also launched a new wave of offensive against them.
Wang Xiaole's brand is not loud enough. Everyone does not consider this drama to be a rubbish drama, but it does not consider it to be a good drama.
In this case, it is a bit too risky to spend a lot of money to buy.
As the news dispersed, the news finally came out.
"The new drama soldier assault of the well-known director Wang Xiaole will be broadcast on Tomato TV in the prime time of winter vacation!"
"The romance of men records the hard work of modern Chinese soldiers!"
Netizens are still very enthusiastic about Wang Xiaole's film, but the style is a bit off.
"Who did Chen Changsu play?"
"6 It's best for the female soldier to play the role of Qianxue!"
"I don't know what military films are good for shooting, so I'll call me the sequel to the Fairy Sword!"
Under this situation, the advertisers who communicated in advance in Tomato Station actually expressed their intention to ask their superiors for instructions, which immediately doubled the pressure on Zhao Xinrong.
"This situation is not right, we must start publicity now!"
The TV station’s financial supporter’s father bought the movie, and Wang Xiaole’s follow-up service has always been well received.
After receiving help from Zhao Xinrong and others, a formal propaganda war soon began.
The revised promotional video began to be released on Tomato Station, soldiers attacked, and Wang Xiaole and the actors also began to interact frequently.
At this time, the big guys in the entertainment industry remembered that Wang Xiaole was not only good at filming, but also had a lot of skills in promoting.
The original promotion record of the Crown Princess was a typical example of using publicity to increase the ratings.
As a promotional video, it doesn’t take much time, so everyone will click to see it.
"Damn it, it turns out that Wang Xiaole actually went on to direct and act on his own?"
When people saw Wang Xiaole wearing Chinese military uniforms, with camouflage on his face and holding a standard sniper rifle in his hands, many people were shocked.
"Just look at Wang Xiaole's own appearance."
The subsequent high scenes also made the audience feel the momentum of bloody courage in the army, which is different from the military scenes they imagined.
"It seems to be quite interesting?"
The wind direction is changing without knowing it.
"I am a veteran. With my military service, Wang Xiaole and his team's outfits and weapons are almost all active equipment in this drama!"
A layman watches the excitement, while an expert sees the tricks.
With military-supported soldiers attacks, various military equipment, clothing and props are all great.
There was no such low-level mistake in using the AK, 69 tank to pretend to be a Ma-1 in the War of Resistance Against Japan.
"It's so spicy. I'll drink 2 taels. I'll drink with you and sacrifice my life! This line is so exciting!"
"No, I don't know any of these actors. Why do I feel that they are acting well?"
"The ones upstairs are too fake, don't you recognize Liu Jinyuan? Why did Brother Dabao cry at Tiananmen Square?"
"Zhao Qingwu actually seems to be just a supporting role? I'm going to give it back to me, Zhao Qingwu!"
Under the impact of various publicity, more and more netizens have learned about the drama Soldier Assault.
Although they were still skeptical, this could be much better when the original soldier assault was launched.
