I turned out to be top-notch!

Everyone expected that "Sword and Fairy" would be a hit. After all, Ma Ren personally directed it, and two popular stars, Zhou Dingran and Hong Shaorong, played the male and female protagonists. As long as the script was not bad to a certain extent, it would be profitable no matter what.

But what people didn't expect was that "Sword and Fairy" would be so ridiculously popular.

Since the launch of "Fairy Sword" on the eighth day of the first lunar month, countless viewers have been watching TV and related online live broadcast platforms on time every day. In just one week, the ratings of "Fairy Sword" reached 3.4%. You know, this is still Because the network and satellite TV broadcast it at the same time.

If the number of online broadcasts is taken into account, the ratings of "Sword and Fairy" are definitely a terrifying number.

In particular, this drama is still broadcast on Zhejiang Satellite TV, rather than CCTV, a platform with a larger and wider audience. This has caused the relevant topics and content of this drama to detonate the Internet again and again, setting off a wave of follow-up viewing on the Internet.

Among them, Li Xiaoyao's handsome, affectionate and righteous character in the play once made the actor Zhou Dingran the number one male god in the hearts of countless people, and also broke the hearts of millions of girls, so much so that Zhou Dingran Weibo, There are countless people shouting "Brother Xiaoyao" on the Douyin platform.

In addition, the innocence and infatuation of the heroine Zhao Ling'er also aroused the wailing of wolf friends and made countless male compatriots feel love and pity.

Characters and classic lines in the play have also set off a popular trend on the Internet, and continue to appear in Douyin short videos and Weibo hot searches.

The popularity of the TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy" instantly made Hong Shaorong a top performer in the entertainment industry.

In just one week after it was aired, Hong Shaorong's net worth has skyrocketed, and she has been offered an olive branch by many major directors, looking forward to playing the heroine in their new works.

Zhou Dingran has also received many invitations. Although it is not as exaggerated as Hong Shaorong, as long as it is a role that meets the age and appearance requirements, Zhou Dingran will basically be given an invitation. Some directors do not even need to audition to sign a contract.

But Zhou Dingran would still decline.

Because he will devote the rest of his time to the crew of "Young You".

Before the year before, when he had free time, he held many reading meetings with the cast members of "You Are Young".

Sometimes, in order to express some lines, he would also have video calls with director Wang Sheng and heroine Cha Duo. In terms of lines, the main actors in the crew have become more and more cooperative with each other, and all that is left is actual practice. .

The crew of "Better Days" has been set up, and the press conference is scheduled for noon on February 16th. After the press conference, the filming of "Better Days" will begin immediately. The filming location is set in Jiangcheng, where the climate is suitable. There are many tall buildings, and the night scene has a cyberpunk atmosphere.

But before that, Zhou Dingran was the first to receive an invitation from the film crew of "The Heart of the Nation". It was said that the contestant auditions were over and the official recording of the program would begin in a week. The recording location would be in Guangdong. Zhou Dingran was asked to prepare and send Let me get some information about the players and let Zhou Dingran do his own research first.

When Zhou Dingran received the information from the contestants, he just opened the first information and was shocked by the three words "Hong Shaorong". He stared at the information, turned it over and over for a while, and finally gave it directly to the director. Zuo Qiuliang made a phone call: "Director Zuo, are you right? Why did Hong Shaorong also participate in the competition?"

"That's right." Zuo Qiuliang replied: "In fact, I was surprised when I received this application, but as far as I understand, this should be what Cheng Haitang meant. Cheng Haitang is Hong Shaorong's agent. When I took office, I have the ability and connections. Maybe I took a fancy to the popularity of our show, so I wanted to use this show to help Hong Shaorong reach a higher level."

The more Zhou Dingran listened, the more outrageous it became. He couldn't help but say: "Hong Shaorong just won the Golden Melody Award for Best Female Singer. She is not an amateur. It may not be fair to other contestants for such a famous artist to participate."

"I know it's unfair, but our program does not strictly limit the identity of the contestants, so whether she is an amateur or a famous artist, as long as she meets the age and major, she can participate." Zuo Qiu Liang said: "Of course, this also has my It’s selfish, after all, becoming a famous artist can bring better topics and popularity.”

Zhou Dingran sighed and said nothing more.

But it is actually quite outrageous. Hong Shaorong had just won the Golden Melody Award and went directly to participate in a girl group talent show like "National Heartbeat". What is the difference between this and a dimensionality reduction attack? Isn’t this a proper run for the first place?

This is much more outrageous than the contestants during the "National Idol" era. At that time, at least most of the contestants were amateurs, and even famous artists were only in the second or third tier of popularity.

But if a new front-line singer like Hong Shaorong directly participates in the competition, wouldn't it be a massacre? They are not on the same level at all. Hong Shaorong probably stood out from the very beginning and became popular all the way to the finals.

In this way, this program might as well be said to exist specifically to make Hong Shaorong famous.

Zhou Dingran shook his head slightly, feeling that this competition might be a bit unfair. However, when he turned over the next piece of information, his eyes suddenly froze, and then he quickly turned over the third and fourth pieces of information, and he couldn't hold back at all. .

"Asia-level hip-hop dance competition champion?"

“The underwear model with more than 20 million TikTok followers?”

"A sports star who has won an Olympic medal?"

"Best Newcomer at the Academy Awards?"

“The Central Conservatory of Music’s freshman admission score ranks first?”

"And Song Xincheng's queen actress?"

Zhou Dingran looked more and more outrageous, and finally couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

This is not the female version of the talent show "People's Idol", it is completely an upgraded version. Those who can officially become contestants on the show will have a much higher starting point than the members of "People's Idol".

Even Zhou Dingran saw a familiar name in the information: Chu Xiaoxiao.

"A teenage writer with tens of millions of fans online? The number one person in Danmei literature?"

Looking at the description of Chu Xiaoxiao in the information, Zhou Dingran couldn't laugh or cry. Especially when he saw that his own name was filled in the column of idols that Chu Xiaoxiao admired. At this moment, Zhou Dingran had the urge to remove Chu Xiaoxiao.

But after all, he was just a vocal instructor, and he couldn't overstep his bounds, so he turned a blind eye and ignored it.

After spending an afternoon looking through all the contestants' information, Zhou Dingran actually had some expectations for the first recording of the show.

"This is much higher quality than "National Idol", whether it is players, venue or financial investment, etc., it is much higher."

Zhou Dingran secretly exclaimed: "Maybe the contestants who emerge from this show will become the mainstay of the entertainment industry in the future."

This is not unreasonable, because in Zhou Dingran's opinion, most of the information on the one hundred people in front of him are around 20 years old. They are all very talented and can be called the super seeds in the entertainment industry in the next 20 to 30 years.

"This is a two-year limited group. When the period ends, each of them will go solo. I'm afraid all the team members will become A-list actresses in the entertainment industry."

Zhou Dingran thought of the female singers and actresses who came from limited girl groups in previous lives. Each of them was ridiculously popular, and their professional abilities far exceeded those of ordinary players. Some of them could even sit on the mentorship, and some of them were twenty or thirty years older. famous singer commented.

"Tsk, fortunately, this show is all about little girls, the oldest is about the same age as me, so we don't have to worry about public criticism."     …

There is only one week left to fly to Guangdong. Before leaving for Guangdong to participate in the recording of "The Heart of the Nation", Zhou Dingran held two more live broadcasts to promote goods.

The main content of the live broadcast is to cooperate with local governments to carry out agricultural assistance activities, and also to launch the first shot of the economy in the new year. Therefore, the goods sold by Zhou Dingran in the live broadcast room are basically low-priced agricultural products, or some basic necessities. Although the transaction volume is astonishingly high, the profit margin is much smaller.

Sometimes after a live broadcast, the commission that falls into Zhou Dingran's hands is only a few million.

However, there are not many such activities to help farmers, so after the event, Zhou Dingran was still able to bring some mid-to-high-end luxury goods, with an average commission of more than 30 points.

Because of the popularity of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", the popularity of Zhou Dingran's live broadcast room has been very high since the beginning of the year. The average number of people online for each live broadcast is more than 3 million, and he has always been in the top three of Douyin's live broadcast online list. .

As for the anchors who can stand at the top of the pyramid in the live broadcast industry, their income will basically be ridiculously high, with a turnover of tens of billions a year, and the highest can reach 20 billion.

In comparison, because Zhou Dingran debuted early, he only carried goods for three months in the second half of the year, and the total number of live broadcast days was only 27 days. Therefore, although the live broadcast popularity ranks among the top three in Douyin, the total revenue of the live broadcast room has increased. Together they are only billion yuan.

Excluding the profits from public welfare products such as helping farmers, Zhou Dingran only got less than 300 million.

This is just the income from live streaming.

If you include income from songs, scripts, commercial performances and novel copyrights, Zhou Dingran's annual income in the past year was 4.1 million yuan.

When the new year begins, Zhou Dingran also conducts annual accounting and personal tax payment through its subsidiary Zhenshijia.

In the tax bill sent by Zhenshijia, Zhou Dingran saw clearly that the amount of back tax payable was 1.4 million.

Among them, Zhenshijia's accountant has helped Zhou Dingran calculate all the tax exemption information.

Originally, he had to pay 1.8 million, but because of the existence of some information such as house purchases and donations to public welfare activities, he met the conditions for tax exemption, and 1.4 million was directly reduced for Zhou Dingran, so Zhou Dingran only needed to pay million more.

Zhou Dingran’s current account is quietly worth 2.3 million yuan.

After paying this large amount of tax, Zhou Dingran's account balance was 90 million.

The large reduction in the number suddenly made Zhou Dingran feel the fear of Wang Chuanjun: I was at my worst when I had no filming for 11 months and only had one million in my account, so I panicked!

Eason Chan even cried: There are only 30 million left in the card.

Now it was Zhou Dingran's turn to put himself in his shoes, and for a moment he couldn't help but want to shout: "Why am I so poor!"

Ninety million is indeed considered very poor, at least for Zhou Dingran now.

After all, if Pioneer Film and Television wants to produce "Celebrating More Than Years", it won't be possible without two to three billion.

And 90 million is obviously not enough to fill this gap.

However, Zhou Dingran is not too panicked. After all, the salary for "National Heartbeat" has not been settled, and the album "Legend" has just been released, with promising results, and the income has not yet been settled.

In addition, after the spring, he will also participate in the "Singer" program on Hunan Satellite TV, and there will be another income that can be put into his pocket.

Thinking about this, Zhou Dingran put his heart in his stomach.

And just as Zhou Dingran began to prepare for the recording of "National Heartbeat", the four-month Haijiao.com Guofeng Cup competition came to an end recently.

After screening by internal judges, referring to the rankings and various data, Haijiao.com finally announced the results of the competition on the entire network.

The song "Blue and White Porcelain" alone won the first place in the Guofeng Cup song list, the first place in the lyrics list, and the first place in the composition list.

Zhou Dingran also topped the Guofeng Cup list with his two songs "Dongfeng Break" and "Blue and White Porcelain".

No. 1 on the four lists!

When the results were announced, the entire Haijiao.com forum became a sensation, and it instantly triggered a huge discussion on the entire Internet.

""Blue and White Porcelain" is well-deserved! Zhou Dingran is well-deserved!"

""Blue and White Porcelain" has been featured on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and I recently heard from the Ministry of Education that the lyrics of this song should be included in the teaching materials!"

"This song is really great, it is my favorite among Zhou Dingran's works!"

"I actually prefer "Lanting Preface", but now the streets are full of "Blue and White Porcelain". I have to say that "Blue and White Porcelain" is indeed popular!"

"No. 1 among the four rankings of the Guofeng Cup, absolutely amazing!"

"The songwriter I admire most now is Wen Chao Gong. Cao Zhan's level has declined and he can't be compared to Wen Chao Gong at all!"

"I think "The Preface to Orchid Pavilion" is forced to use rhetoric, but I have to say that the vocabulary in "Blue and White Porcelain" is really good! It's amazing!"

""Blue and White Porcelain" is so popular that the TV station here in my home has made news. Moreover, our school's chemistry teacher also used chemistry knowledge to adapt the lyrics of "Blue and White Porcelain". Now it is very popular. Men, women, and children are all here in the streets. Sing!”

"Our school has just started, and "Blue and White Porcelain" is played every day. As a result, I don't listen to "Blue and White Porcelain" once every day. I feel uncomfortable all over!!"

""Lanting Preface" is also very good. It's a pity that it didn't win the award. This song is more suitable for expressing emotions, and you can hear a sense of heaviness. Recently, many historical UP masters' editing videos basically use "Lanting Preface" As an accompaniment, I really like it! As for "Blue and White Porcelain", I just feel that it sounds like light music."

"I don't care about anything else. I only care about how much prize money I can get for "Blue and White Porcelain"?"

""Blue and White Porcelain" won the best song, best lyrics and best composition. These alone are 30 million. And Zhou Dingran won the best singer, which is 10 million, a total of 40 million, all of which were divided between Zhou Dingran and Wenzhao Gong. ”

"I thought the Guofeng Cup would be a battle between dragons and tigers, but the result was disappointing, leaving Zhou Dingran to stand out... What a show!" (End of Chapter)
