Chapter 1068 Requirements of KBS
"Menjie, the Seventh Princess is popular, really popular, haha, I really saw you right!"
In a very well-decorated high-end hotel in South Korea, Jin Junzhe picked up a wine glass and spoke excitedly to Menjie.
"Brother Junzhe, without your support, no matter how well I do, it will be useless!"
With a chuckle, Menjie also picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Jin Junzhe, and drank it all in one gulp.
With Menjie's drinking capacity, he could drink a lot of high-quality white wine, let alone the soju in his cup.
During the day today, Menjie flew to South Korea by plane. After taking a short rest, he was dragged out for a drink by Jin Junzhe, who learned the news.
During this period of time, Jin Junzhe was so depressed that he called Menjie countless times. He wanted to invite Menjie to have dinner together and talk about his future work!
In early September 2006, the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses", funded by Menjie and created by Celebrity Film and Television Company, was officially broadcast on South Korea's KBS TV station.
The reason why it can be broadcast is naturally that Kim Jun-cheol played a huge role in it. If the TV series performs well, then Menjie will have the opportunity to cooperate with KBS TV station for a long time, and Kim Jun-cheol will also be able to gain huge popularity in the station.
Fame is of great benefit to him in competing for deputy director.
Of course, if they fail, the careers of Men Jie and Jin Junzhe will suffer a huge blow.
At the beginning, the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" were not very high. At the beginning, the ratings did not even reach a figure of 10%, which indeed made Men Jie and Jin Junzhe very disappointed.
However, the increase in ratings in the next few days made the two of them extremely excited.
In just one week, the ratings have reached nearly 15%. Judging from such a growth trend, the TV series "The Rumored Seventh Princess" definitely has the potential to become a hit!
Even reaching the ‘25% average ratings and 30% maximum ratings’ agreed in the contract between Menjie and KBS TV station, I’m afraid it won’t take long to reach it!
Then the results of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" really did not disappoint Menjie!
It was officially aired in early September, and now in early December, three months have passed, and more than 20 episodes of the TV series have been aired. As the story gradually unfolds, the results of this TV series have also increased from
The rapid growth in the early stage has turned into a slow growth.
By the time the episodes were aired two days ago, the TV series' ratings had already reached 28.4%. The average ratings had also reached 24.1%.
Although it has not yet reached the data agreed between Menjie and KBS TV station, it is only less than 1% of the average ratings and less than 2% of the highest ratings. You don't have to think about it, it will take only a few days.
That data has been reached!
There are a total of 80 episodes of the TV series, and as of now, not even one-third of it has been aired. And judging from the data and netizens’ comments, the trend of this TV series is very good. As long as nothing unexpected happens,
As time goes by, the ratings will gradually increase a lot!
And it's not just the results in the data, even when compared with other TV series. The TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" also has an absolute advantage!
Only less than one-third of the episodes have been aired, and the ratings have not yet reached a true peak, but it has already climbed to the fifth place in the Korean ratings rankings in 2006, although it is only lower than the sixth place.
The TV series "My Love Ugly Monsters" has an average ratings of 0.1% higher, but it is also very powerful.
Moreover, the TV series "My Love Ugly Monsters" will officially end in two episodes. By that time, as there is no strong enemy in the current Korean TV series that can surpass "The Rumored Seven Princesses", I am afraid that "The Rumored Seven Princesses" will
The ratings will see an extremely terrifying rise in the near future!
Menjie and Jin Junzhe were both very happy about this!
And not only that!
As the first TV series in South Korea where Chinese actors and Korean actors have completely cooperated, although there are many actors in the TV series that Korean people do not know, it does not affect people's welcome for these Chinese actors.
Just like many Korean actors are very popular in China, Chinese actors are also very popular in South Korea.
However, to Menjie's surprise, the most popular Chinese actor in South Korea was not Yao Chen, one of the leading actors, but Liu Shishi, who played a supporting role in the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses".
The supporting role has quite a lot of money, and its popularity is not inferior to that of Yao Chen!
There are even many Korean fans who call Liu Shishi the "No. 1 Goddess of China", which really surprises Men Jie.
But what followed immediately was joy.
After all, he is the first star under his company to gain considerable popularity in Korea, and he deserves to be vigorously cultivated in the future!
"Men Jie, I'm going to tell you the truth, thanks to your TV series, my prestige in the TV station has skyrocketed!"
It seemed that he had drunk a little too much. Jin Junzhe took Menjie's hand and began to chatter.
"I was quite confident about competing for deputy director, but suddenly three seniors jumped out of nowhere. They were much better than me in terms of prestige, connections, and results. At that time, I even had
I have the urge to give up competition, but I didn’t expect... Just because of my cooperation with you, although my prestige in Taiwan is not as good as these three people, it is not that I have no room to fight back. Except for these three people, the others who originally followed me
Similar candidates are no longer my opponents, haha, even if I fail this election, as long as I have you, I will definitely succeed next time!"
"Brother Junzhe, did the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" really help you so much?" Jin Junzhe said this, but Men Jie didn't believe it.
It's just a TV series, but it has such a big effect?
And what you need to know is that although it became the fifth most watched TV series in South Korea in 2006, among the previous four TV series, there were two KBS TV series. Can it really have such a big effect?
"Of course, in addition to the simple ratings, you don't know the symbolic meaning of this TV series!"
Jin Junzhe nodded seriously and said without hesitation.
Indeed, with the popularity of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" in South Korea, it is also equally popular in China!
In itself, Menjie's foundation in China is quite solid, and the appeal of the TV series is also quite strong. Coupled with the influence of the Korean Wave, it has attracted the attention of countless people.
In terms of ratings, up to now, more than 20 episodes have been broadcast, and the ratings have climbed to a figure of 6.25%!
Although it is only a little over half of the ratings of the TV series "Wulin Gaiden", it may be quite incredible to reach 6.25%. The first TV series "Eternal Dragon Sword" starring Men Jie ended up with a ratings of only 6.4%. And that
There are also results starring Su Youpeng, Jia Jingwen and others.
Most of the actors in the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" are "new faces" in the eyes of Chinese audiences. However, they were able to get a rating of 6.25% by airing one-third of the series.
It’s already very difficult.
Moreover, Menjie estimates that with the passage of time, it is certain that the TV series will eventually reach a ratings of 7%, and there is a huge possibility of reaching 8%. If it is any higher, it is probably not possible.
But with a ratings of over 8%, it is definitely among the top three most popular TV series in China throughout the year.
The TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses", which has the highest ratings of more than 28% in South Korea, has made Yao Chen and the unexpected rise of Liu Shishi popular. Similarly, this TV series has also made many Koreans popular in China.
star.
It has a huge impact on the cultural exchanges between China and South Korea, and the KBS TV station and Mango Channel, which are the central matchmakers, definitely have huge benefits.
Correspondingly, it also has huge benefits for Jin Junzhe and Chen Fengxiao. Among colleagues at the same level, they are definitely the most powerful and prestigious group!
Naturally, Menjie, who has a very close relationship with both of them, also received considerable benefits.
"Menjie, your TV series has performed very well on our KBS TV station. Even the final ratings, according to expert speculation, can at least reach an average rating of 30% and a maximum rating of 35%. Basically, it is
As an excellent work that can be ranked among the top three ratings by the judges next year, the TV station's intention to continue to cooperate with you is also very clear. After several days of discussion, the final conclusion was finally given!"
After chatting for a while, although he felt a little confused, when it came to formality, Jin Junzhe was not ambiguous at all and said directly to Menjie, "Needless to say, the relationship between the two of us is definitely a ship."
Grasshopper on the boat, I won’t talk nonsense to you, I will directly tell you what KBS TV station means!”
Seeing Menjie nod slightly, Jin Junzhe stopped talking nonsense and spoke directly to Menjie.
"On the one hand, the TV series is very popular, and on the other hand, working with you can promote cultural exchanges between China and South Korea. However, you are Chinese after all, so it is impossible for Taiwan to directly have in-depth discussions with you."
You must also understand this level of cooperation!”
"However, Taiwan has finally decided that it is willing to sign two TV series contracts with you first. The two TV series produced by your company in the future with Chinese actors and Korean actors can be directly broadcast in the prime time period of KBS TV station.
When broadcasting, you will be treated according to the normal treatment of the entertainment companies we have long-term cooperation with, and the price will also be based on the standards of large film and television companies, and the price will be specifically determined based on the ratings!"
Menjie nodded slightly, and was very satisfied with the treatment given by KBS.
After all, we have only collaborated on one TV series, and Men Jie is still Chinese, so it is naturally impossible for the other party to directly offer a long-term cooperation contract or a contract for in-depth cooperation.
Even large companies in South Korea must have at least a few works and a good cooperative relationship for several years before they can sign a long-term cooperation contract. Every in-depth contract is extremely cautious and cannot be done casually.
Just sign it.
Men Jie is very satisfied with the fact that the two future TV series can be guaranteed to achieve the level of "long-term cooperation".
Menjie believes that as the two TV series created by Celebrity Film and Television Company become popular in Korea in the future, the cooperation between himself and KBS TV station will become closer.
"According to the station, if any of your next two TV series can reach the top ten in the annual ratings, we will provide you with a cooperation contract. Slowly,
As long as the TV series produced by your company generally show a good trend during the cooperation process, and produce five TV series that are among the "top ten in annual ratings" in seven years, KBS TV station will be willing to formally sign a long-term cooperation contract with you.
, As for the issue of in-depth cooperation, we have not formally discussed it, after all, it is still too far away from now!"
In seven years, five TV dramas have become popular? And these five TV dramas are required to be the work of Chinese and Korean actors. In China, they are not required to be popular, but they are also required to have a certain reputation and be able to be officially broadcast?
After listening to Jin Junzhe's request, Menjie fell silent and began to make calculations in his mind.
This requirement is indeed higher than the requirements of local Korean film and television companies.
If it were just a local Korean film and television company, the requirements would probably be lower than the requirements for Menjie. For example, they would also require five popular TV series, but the limited time would be about ten years.
But for Menjie, whether it is seven years, ten years, or a shorter period of time, it is actually the same. Menjie is absolutely confident that he can complete the "five popular TV series" in a shorter period of time.
work.
But to be honest, requiring every TV series to include Chinese and Korean stars leaves Menjie speechless.
But after thinking about it in his mind, Menjie probably had some concerns.
In fact, China's Mango TV station finally gave Menjie's request a bit more difficult than KBS TV station.
There is no set time, but it is required that ten works with ratings exceeding 5% must be released.
Apart from this, there are no other requirements.
After all, compared to South Korea, China has too many film and television companies. When there are more wealthy people, there will always be people with checkbooks looking for script investments all over the world. Although the birth rate of excellent works is not very high, it is
No matter how big the base is, there will always be some works that do well.
Naturally, if you want to get a long-term cooperation contract, you need more works to prove yourself!
