Chapter 511 Chapter 508: Can This Break the Record?
While Wang Mo was thinking about the song.
Ring, ring, ring... His cell phone rang.
After taking a look, Wang Mo smiled and answered the phone: "Mr. Clement?"
The call was from Clement, and an excited voice came from it: "Oh! Wang! You are really my idol! I never dreamed that I just slept, and after I got up, Hao Mingxing has become an internationally renowned star. Can you tell me, do you have magic? How did you do it?"
Clement was almost speechless with excitement.
After seeing the script of "Iron Man", he was obsessed with this movie.
Otherwise, he would not have joined Yunhai Media to shoot a movie.
Satisfied with the script.
Satisfied with the conditions for joining.
Sufficient funds.
What else is he not satisfied with?
The only thing that made him a little regretful was that the leading actor of "Iron Man" was designated by Wang Mo.
Originally, Clement's plan was to have several Hollywood movie star-level tough guys play the leading roles. Although those top movie stars have high pay, their popularity and acting skills are top-notch, enough to bring the movie box office revenue that exceeds its value.
However, Wang Mo designated Hao Mingxing as the leading actor. After he found that he could not change Wang Mo's decision at all, he could only accept it helplessly.
Although Clement was quite satisfied with Hao Mingxing's image after meeting him.
But in his heart, Hao Mingxing is still far from being comparable to the top Hollywood tough guys.
What worries him most is that Hao Mingxing has no reputation in the world.
Clement doubts whether such a leading actor can support the box office.
After all, in the hearts of European and American movie fans, they have never been very interested in leading actors who are not white.
However.
It was just one night.
Clement found that the world seemed to have changed.
Hao Mingxing's fame soared.
The whole network praised his domineering image and his Chinese Kung Fu. Some people even said that those tough guys in Hollywood were just show-offs and could not stand a single blow in front of Hao Mingxing.
Seeing these news, Clement was overjoyed.
Wang Mo knew what Clement was thinking.
He smiled and said, "I've said it before, don't worry about the starring issue. Do you have any objection to Hao Mingxing starring in "Iron Man" now?"
"No, no, I'm quite satisfied."
Clement said quickly.
Wang Mo smiled slightly: "Don't worry, the surprise is still to come."
Clement was almost floating when he heard it: "There is still a surprise? Wang! What is the surprise?"
Wang Mo said with a chuckle: "Keep it secret."
Clement said dissatisfiedly: "You Chinese people like to keep things secret, and this is what I hate the most."
Wang Mo didn't care: "How is the preparation for the movie?"
Clement: "I have basically settled the configuration of the actors. The main actors have also finished the audition. Wang, do you want to review it again?"
"No."
Wang Mo shook his head.
He decided to give Clement the greatest power because he believed that the other party would not let him down.
Top Hollywood directors like Clement generally have their own directing habits and styles.
If he interferes too much, it will be bad.
Unless there are major problems during the filming, he will come forward.
After all, after the "Dream Voice" program ends, he will go to shoot "Forrest Gump", and this movie is his top priority.
However, although Wang Mo couldn't say it, Clement still sent a list after hanging up the phone.
Wang Mo took a look, wow!
It's really a star-studded group!
Except for Hao Mingxing, the others are all Hollywood movie stars, and there are even several important supporting roles. Wang Mo often sees the names in Hollywood movies.
This is another reason why Wang Mo asked Clement to direct "Iron Man": Clement has a strong network of contacts in Hollywood, can invite actors who have worked with him before, and know which role the other party is most suitable for. Then make the cast most suitable for the role configuration of the movie.
In this way, he is more confident to hand over "Iron Man" to the other party.
...
ABC Radio.
Since the "Dream Voice" program was broadcast last night, the screams and surprises of the employees inside have never stopped. Especially the "Dream Voice" program team, many employees almost stayed up all night and have been partying in the company.
Why?
Record-breaking!
Record-breaking ratings!
This is a miracle.
Because this is the eighth season of "Dream Voice".
For any program, after the eighth year of broadcasting, the ratings will inevitably decline, even the best programs are no exception.
However, after today's ratings came out, everyone found that last night's program actually broke the highest ratings in five years in several countries!
Only the ratings of the first and second seasons crushed it.
A true myth.
"Incredible."
"Oh my God, this is also possible?"
"If it is just breaking the ratings of the sixth and seventh seasons, I would not be surprised. That is the record of the third season!"
"Yes, the third season of "Dream Voice" is very popular, and many people think that its record is almost unbreakable, but now it has been broken."
"How did you do it?"
"Now I feel like I am dreaming. Even if I am a staff member, I think it is a statistical error when I see the ratings."
"..."
Everyone is shocked.
Shock is followed by ecstasy.
Especially the chief director Kevin was the most excited.
Who would have thought that he had invited Wang Mo just because of his fame, but he didn't expect that the other party would bring such a huge surprise to him.
Broke the record for the third season.
He had never dared to think about it before.
Except that the ratings records for the first and second seasons are too amazing and are basically impossible to be broken. It is equivalent to Wang Mo helping the program achieve the best ratings.
Of course, some people believe that the record-breaking ratings are not due to Wang Mo, but to the fact that the program is well done.
But Kevin immediately retorted: "I don't deny that the program is well done. It may have broken the ratings. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wang Mo and his team members have contributed a lot. The Gemini stars in the first episode made everyone pay attention to The program created a great sense of expectation and allowed everyone to see the infinite possibilities of Chinese singers. Many people came here for the surprise in the first episode, but they did not expect that in the second episode, the two contestants from Wang Mo's team would outperform the first place. The twin stars performed better in the first episode, which set off the ratings.”
This is quite pertinent.
Many ABC Radio executives approved.
"That's true."
"Wang Mo gave great support to the ratings."
"I have to say that Mr. Wang Mo is really a miracle. When he went to participate in the International Music Hall Night, he single-handedly ignited the popularity of this event. Now he comes to participate in the entertainment variety show, just two programs, It broke the highest ratings since the third season."
"It's a pity that Wang Mo seems to be very protective of these players. I wanted to sign long-term cooperation contracts with these players, but Wang Mo has always avoided them."
"I have investigated and found that these singers were all brought up by Wang Mo in China and are singers under his company."
"But this does not prevent us from cooperating with them. Our radio station is one of the largest television stations in Blue Star. Many singers cannot cooperate with us, but Wang Mo does not give us a chance. I can guarantee that as long as we If people like Su Xueyao and Miao Xiaoxia cooperate with us, it will be enough for them to become second-tier or above international singers within three years. In my opinion, this is a win-win opportunity. I really don’t know why Wang Mo rejected us.”
"..."
Of course, everyone is just talking about it.
Not much to complain about.
After all, Wang Mo has brought them a big surprise now.
In particular, people speculate that with the ratings of the second episode exploding, the third episode is expected to cause greater repercussions around the world.
Therefore, the top priority of the program team is to catch this overwhelming wealth.
We can’t let the third period stretch our hips.
…
Outside the world, when the global ratings of "The Voice of Dreams" were announced, many people were equally dumbfounded.
In the eyes of many people, it is normal for this program to win the ratings championship that day.
After all, it is the most popular music variety show on Blue Star today.
But what a record-breaking thing?
Breaking the show’s highest record since Season 3?
Where can he reason from?
Basically, most people know that the reason why the ratings of "The Voice of Dreams" exploded was due to the outstanding performance of several players in Wang Mo's team.
The songs of Miao Xiaoxia, Ye Yuanhang, Su Xueyao, and Hao Mingxing are currently popular all over the Internet.
It is estimated that at least hundreds of millions of people have heard their songs.
As long as one-tenth of them pay attention to the program "Dream Voice", it can bring huge popularity to the program.
Therefore, all major social platforms are filled with various discussions from netizens.
"Wang Mo is still awesome."
"Yes, it's amazing."
"Chinese singers in the past have never dazzled internationally. Since Wang Mo, he has won four!"
"It turns out that Wang Mo is not only amazingly talented in music, but he is also top-notch as a mentor."
"At first, everyone was thinking whether Wang Mo would be eliminated in the second round, but they didn't expect that he would crush the other three mentors by himself."
"What's even more incredible is that all the songs of the four contestants are now written by Wang Mo."
"..."
After being shocked, everyone began to notice the third issue of "The Voice of Dreams".
In the first and second issues, Wang Mo created such a big miracle.
What about the third issue?
Many people were excited.
…
A certain fan base.
"I can't help it anymore. I want to watch the recording of the third episode live."
"I have to go too, to see if Wang Mo's team players can create miracles again."
"Count me in."
"Brothers, is there any way to go to the recording site?"
…
In a certain group of singers.
"I want to worship Master Wang Mo up close."
"The experience through the screen is too bad, I have to go to the scene."
"In the third period, I must experience it up close."
"High price for votes."
…
Industry entertainment circle.
"Wang Mo is so mysterious."
"Yeah, four Chinese singers in a row can be popular?"
"It's a bit ridiculously strong."
"This kind of person is the most terrifying. His strength alone is nothing, it's his ability to bring out other singers that makes people scared."
"No, I must see such a person in person to see if he is genuine or not."
…
Of course, there are more TV stations.
These executives and variety show directors are crazy.
"Hurry up and contact Wang Mo, invite him to participate in our program."
"It's worth it no matter how much the franchise fee is."
"Such a mentor is the living signboard of the program."
"Call quickly, there will be no chance if you are late."
Who wouldn't want a person who can bring a popular variety show to a new peak and break the ratings record?
Who wouldn't be tempted?
This is much more valuable than inviting superstars like Christie and Natalie.
Because only people in the industry know how difficult it is for a program that has been produced for eight consecutive episodes to break the ratings record. What should be done has been done long ago, what should be hyped has been hyped long ago, and all the highlights and temptations have been broadcast. The planning team and director team of the program group can only do their best to maintain the popularity of the program.
It can be said that the current popularity of "Dream Voice" is completely supported by a wave of die-hard fans.
But Wang Mo broke this rule abruptly and created a legend of one person making four singers popular in a row.
In this way, the invisible value created by Wang Mo for "Dream Voice" is at least 100 million US dollars.
What's more!
Wang Mo himself is a music master!
So if they can invite Wang Mo to participate in their variety show, it will be a huge profit.
...
"Amo, my phone has been blown up."
In the hotel, Fu Hong laughed, "Last time you became famous at the International Music Hall Night, almost all music events around the world sent invitations. This time it's even crazier. It's estimated that all the directors of variety shows on the entire Blue Star have called and invited you to participate. There are even programs that offer a franchise fee of up to 20 million US dollars."
Wang Mo was shocked.
A franchise fee of 20 million US dollars for a program?
And he just went there to sit for a while?
Fu Hong said: "What's even more outrageous is that many variety shows that are not about singing have also invited you."
Wang Mo: "For example?"
Fu Hong: "For example, love variety shows, outdoor variety shows, suspense variety shows, and even puzzle variety shows. Anyway, there are all kinds of variety shows. These people obviously want to invite you first, regardless of whether it is suitable or not. After all, with your age, appearance, and talent, you are suitable to participate in any variety show."
Wang Mo was also speechless, and paused before saying: "Reject all."
Where does he have time to participate in these variety shows?
What's more, although the franchise fee of 20 million is very high, it is already a small amount of money for Wang Mo now.
His current worth...well, he himself can't calculate it.
Anyway, Wang Mo knows that at the end of last year, the company once again increased its equity ratio for him. Now his shareholding ratio in Yunhai Media has reached about 5%, making him the company's veritable number one individual shareholder.
Other company shareholders are trying their best to reduce the equity ratio for their individual shareholders.
And the holding company of Yunhai Media is trying its best to increase Wang Mo's shares.
No way!
They were afraid that Wang Mo would run away.
A few years ago, the market value of Yunhai Media was only at the level of 10 billion yuan.
Now, Wang Mo alone has raised the market value of Yunhai Media to more than 200 billion yuan! Even the stock price has almost been going up all the way.
In this case, no matter how many shares Wang Mo is given, the shareholders are willing.
Anyway, for shareholders, although their equity ratio has decreased, the benefits they can obtain are several times or even dozens of times more than before. Who would not want to?
In Wang Mo's view, these people are crazy.
When he had no money, no one gave him money.
But when he became rich, these people gave him money.
The richer you are, the more people give you money.
There are even crazier ones.
On Wednesday, when Wang Mo and his six-member team went to ABC Radio to prepare for the third day of recording, when they arrived at ABC's Times Square headquarters in New York, they saw a scene that surprised them greatly.
What's going on?
Several people looked at each other, thinking they had gone to the wrong place.
The entire Times Square headquarters was surrounded by a dense crowd of people. It was a dark mass.
It was full of people.
Conservatively estimated that there were thousands of people here.
"What's going on?"
Wang Mo was a little confused.
Did something happen today?
Just as he was wondering.
Suddenly Ye Yuanhang exclaimed: "Brother Mo, I'm afraid these people are coming for you." (End of this chapter)
