Chapter 241: The Chinese Classics Online (Ch 241)

On July 30, nearly a month after the release of Eight Hundred,

The cumulative box office of the film has exceeded 3 billion, making it the undisputed box office champion this year.

But these have nothing to do with Qi Jia, although the role he played is impressive.

But he was still a supporting role, and the box office of the movie did not depend on him.

Since the last “wedding dress incident”, Qi Jia has been fully devoted to filming and has not actively released any updates.

Although my brother has long left the world, his legend still exists in the world.

Although he does not actively market, there are many people who take the initiative to pay for his marketing.

The reason is that since the early promotion of “Eight Hundred” was a great success, directors in the circle have discovered that Qi Jia is very useful.

Therefore, all TV series and movies that Qi Jia participated in, whether they had not yet started filming or had already finished filming, all rolled up their sleeves and went to the stage.

Han Yan is one of them. After Little Red Flower was scheduled to be released on August 7, the Chinese Valentine’s Day, he imitated Guan Hu.

All the publicity expenses were spent on marketing Qi Jia, and in addition, the Beijing National Master Studio,

They also secretly followed suit and bought trending searches to hype up the couple relationship between Qi Jia and Liu Haocun.

As a result, Qi Jia’s popularity has not decreased in the past month, but has become a frequent visitor to the hot search list.

He would appear on the hot search list from time to time, leading to rumors online that he was the “Prince of Weibo”.

Czech Republic, on set,

Qi Jia was talking on the phone with Zhang Kunpeng.

He was reporting the online situation to Qi Jia. After talking about work, he hesitated for a moment and asked,

“Tonight at 8 o’clock, China in Classics will be officially launched. Qi Jia, do you think we can really succeed?”

There was a lot of nervousness and uncertainty in the tone. After all, as a cultural variety show, it is very difficult to stand out.

Even if it is produced by Qijia Studio, it can call on fans to support it after it is released.

But after all, Qi Jia did not appear in the film, and fans may not necessarily buy it, even if tens of millions of fans all went to watch it.

These statistics are nothing compared to the variety show market where revenues easily exceed 100 million yuan.

“Man proposes, God disposes. We have done our best.”

“Besides, don’t worry. Even if the effect doesn’t meet expectations, I will finish filming the first season.”

Qi Jia smiled and comforted him, giving him a reassurance.

Although those who have seen the finished film think it is excellent, it cannot represent the views of the majority of the audience.

So until the dust settles, Qi Jia doesn’t know what the final outcome will be?

“Hahaha, just your words are enough.”

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Kunpeng felt relieved after receiving Qi Jia’s promise.

The two chatted for a few more words, and when they heard the director yelling for him to get ready, Qi Jia hung up the phone.

Then he opened Weibo, edited a post and posted it.

“‘China in Classics’ is now officially online. Let’s read Chinese classics together at 8 o’clock tonight.”

Less than a minute after posting the dynamic, the background message prompts kept appearing.

…

“Qi Jia, get into the camera quickly.”

Hearing Director Yao’s urging, Qi Jia quickly handed the phone to the assistant and trotted back to the set.

8pm,

China in Classics is officially launched simultaneously on the three major video platforms Youku, iQiyi and Tencent Video.

Many netizens who had been recommended for a long time clicked on the first episode “Shangshu” out of curiosity.

After a short opening trailer, a majestic soundtrack sounded, and at the same time, several streams of light outlined a road on the stage.

The avenue stretches forward, and at the end of the road is a huge wall of books.

There is a desk in the open space in front of the book wall.

As the music turned into the gentle sound of the guqin, Sa Beining, who played the role of a contemporary scholar, walked slowly to the desk and sat down.

…

At the same time, in the girls’ dormitory of Jinling University,

“Si Meng, what are you looking at?”

Liu Simeng’s roommate came back from outside and glanced at her curiously when passing by her seat and asked,

“China in the classics,” Liu Simeng replied.

The roommate leaned over and said, “That’s the one Qi Jia made himself, right? Oh, he even invited Sa Beining to make it. Does it look good?”

Liu Simeng nodded and said, “At the beginning, I didn’t know whether it would look good or not.”

After hearing this, her roommate said nothing and stood behind her and watched with interest.

But when she saw Sabining sitting at the table and actually started reading, her interest instantly disappeared and she complained,

“It’s really a book-reading show! Never mind, I think Running Man is more interesting.”

As he said that, he climbed onto his bed. Liu Simeng ignored his roommate’s complaints.

But in fact, she had the same feeling in her heart. However, it was Qi Jia’s work after all, and she felt that as an old classmate, she had an obligation to support it.

So, I continued to watch patiently, and as the progress bar moved forward,

She gradually discovered that this variety show was not just a simple reading program, but seemed to be quite interesting.

There are more than one person who has the same idea as her.

Beijing, National Master Studio,

Zhang Yimou pushed open the door of Liu Haocun’s lounge and walked in to see her holding a mobile phone, looking at it intently.

“Only the ancestors of Yin had books and classics…”

When the national teacher heard this line for the first time, he stopped, was stunned for a moment, and couldn’t help but uttered “Huh”.

Liu Haocun turned around and saw that it was the Imperial Master, so he called out,

“Uncle Zhang.”

“Is this the variety show that Qi Jia made?”

The national teacher walked up to her, reached out and tapped the screen, and after seeing the title, he asked curiously.

“Well, Uncle Zhang, how do you feel?” Liu Haocun nodded slightly, raised his head, looked at him and asked,

Zhang Yimou did not answer directly, but looked at it for a while before saying,

“The costumes, props, music, casting, and even the dialogue are all beautifully crafted.”

“Does it mean it will become popular?” Liu Haocun asked.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yimou shook his head.

“It’s hard to say. Although the production is exquisite, the essence of variety shows is entertainment.

Qi Jia’s variety show is more inclined towards popular science, so its reputation will definitely not be bad, but it may not necessarily be popular. “

After hearing this, Liu Haocun frowned with some worry.

The first episode of Shangshu lasted 90 minutes. At around 9:30 p.m., Chen Yuwen got the first round of broadcast data.

According to statistics from the three websites, after excluding behind-the-scenes footage, trailers, and abnormal clicks, the total effective clicks and viewing time of the audience are combined.

The effective broadcast number of the first episode of “Shangshu” was 13.42 million, and the market share of effective broadcast of the feature film was only 0.18%.

This data, when put into the effective broadcast of the corresponding type of full-network feature films, is not enough to play, and the commercial value is pitifully low.

After reading it, both of them fell silent for a moment.

Perhaps the only thing that can make them feel a little bit relieved is that the three platforms effectively broadcast the audience after watching it.

Without exception, all of them gave five-star reviews, without a single negative review, and they also turned on the follow-up function in the background.

On the other side, in Hengdian, inside the hotel where the crew of The Yin Yang Master was staying,

The four directors also obtained the first round of broadcast data of “China in Classics” as soon as possible.

After seeing the data, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

In a very good mood, I told my assistant to inform everyone to take a day off tomorrow.

Then he started making phone calls, preparing to celebrate tonight.
