Hollywood Starts with Animation

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of April.

With the participation of 600 staff members and tens of thousands of contestants, the selection of the "America's Got Talent" all over the United States officially came to an end after 35 days.

In the end, only 200 outstanding players entered the preliminary round!

The players who have advanced to the preliminary round are naturally very excited, because the preliminary round is not the audition, it will be officially broadcast on the TV platform; the players who were eliminated in the audition are of course extremely disappointed. Whether the million-dollar jackpot left them, or not being able to see their performances in audiences across the United States, they were extremely uncomfortable.

Of course, there are also surprises!

In the audition, those excellent performances, or extremely bad but hilarious special programs, have already been deleted and selected as the pilot films of "Got Talent" and are being performed on UPN TV. to play.

To be honest, the audition clips of the program edited in a hurry are a bit rough.

The stage set is also very simple.

However, it is such a nearly "three-nothing" audition clip, when it was broadcast on UPN TV, it attracted a large number of viewers to watch.

They said they liked it a lot!

There are a total of five pilot films, and the average number of viewers in each episode has reached 16 million!

Especially the last pilot film, at its peak, the number of viewers in North America exceeded 20 million people.

boom!

This data instantly caused a sensation in North America!

Countless viewers, whether they have seen the pilot film or haven't, expressed great expectations for the main competition of "America's Got Talent"!

Intensifying!

Fire cooking oil!

There is no doubt that "America's Got Talent", which has not yet been broadcast in the main game, is really popular. Moreover, it is still unstoppable!

"This month, I'm almost exhausted!"

"I'm a billionaire, and I'm so fucking tired."

"In the next season of the show, I will have a taste of what it is like to be ruled by the arch!"

Recently, Zucker was really exhausted.

In fact, Zucker can be a hands-off shopkeeper.

The entire project of "The Talent Show" was handed over to his subordinates, but in order to make the show successful, Zu Ke had to keep an eye on the progress. After all, he had watched a lot in his previous life.

Experienced!

The hard-working and hard-working Zhu Ke is very pleased when he sees that the preparations for the show are going well, especially when one after another sponsors come to the door.

Why?

Because sponsors are rushing to send money!

Someone from Coca-Cola said: "We're not short on money! We voted for the title business of "The Talent Show"!"

People from Pepsi Cola are very disdainful: "Are you the only one who has money? We've decided how much you pay, and we'll always only be one price more expensive than you!"

Auto giant Ford expressed disapproval: "Better than money? We are not worse."

Mobil Oil: "As long as you give us the location of the title dealer, I will give you one week of free taxi advertising space in the United States."

From Microsoft: "Mr. Wald, both of us are shareholders of ICQ. Even if we can't win the position of the title sponsor, please give us Microsoft the position of the main sponsor."

Amazon's bald head also came: "Zuke and I are old friends. The sponsor's position must be our Amazon mall."

......

Happy troubles!

Happy troubles!

Watching the famous American companies come to the door, Zucker appeared to be calm on the surface, but his heart was already happy!

grandma's,

It's all green dollars!

In the end, after several auctions and bids, the title sponsor of "America's Got Talent", as well as 5 oral advertising spaces, 3 video patch advertising spaces, including other scattered props advertising spaces, prize quiz advertising spaces, etc. Wait, all sold.

$120 million!

That's right, that's the advertising bill for the first season of America's Got Talent.

You really don't think too much!

You must know that after 2010, the advertising fees of those trump card variety shows in the Great Heaven Dynasty alone cost more than 100 million US dollars for a title agent; the fees for video websites and so on are even more appalling!

So, $120 million in advertising for the first season of America's Got Talent is really not that much.

This is mainly because the UPN TV network is a relatively small broadcast platform. If it is replaced by American giant TV companies such as NBC, ABC, and FOX, then the advertising cost will definitely add 50 million US dollars, which is still the lowest.

Of course, $120 million in advertising dollars is not so easy to get.

In agreements with a number of sponsors, there are minimum ratings requirements.

Once the average viewership rate of the show is lower than 2.2%, Zucker will have to find money for these sponsors; however, when the average viewership rate is higher than 2.8%, the sponsors will also increase the payment of advertising fees proportionally.

Regarding the requirements for ratings, the program group of the UPN TV network expressed great pressure.

But.

Zucker said it was very easy.

"Hehe, the fourth season of "America's Got Talent" in the original time and space had the lowest ratings, with an average rating of 2.4%. Now it is the most attractive first season. Where can the ratings be?"

Zucker is very confident.

Moreover, Zucker is also very confident about reaching the 2.8% rating standard line with additional money.

Do not!

To be precise, Zhu Ke's audience rating target for the talent show at the beginning was to start at 3%!

...

...

The news that "America's Got Talent" advertising costs as high as 120 million US dollars came out, once again caused a wave of sensation across the United States.

The peers in the TV network industry such as FOX and NBC are very envious.

A senior practitioner in the TV industry said: "Judging from the current popularity of "America's Got Talent", the success of the show is not far away!"

The peers were envious, jealous, and hated, while the audience expressed their increasing expectations for the "Talent Show" program.

"Show it soon!"

"That's it."

"Today is April 30th, and there are still more than ten days before the show airs!"

"Come on~!"

Viewers from all over the United States, there are many people who can't wait and call the program team to urge; on the official website of "Got Talent Show", in just a few days, the number of people leaving messages has exceeded 100,000!

There are various indications that the popularity of the talent show may exceed the estimates of many experts!

at the same time.

The 200 players who have successfully advanced to the preliminary round are also anxiously and busy preparing.

Rapper Eminem: "I've locked myself in my room for three days, and I haven't come out. My new song will definitely blow up the audience!"
