Chapter 496: 498

"Desperate Housewives" officially opens on Thursday, September 17.

It's a golden time for TV series.

On the other hand, it has to be said that the opening time node of desperate housewives is really a little flattering.

Not long after the Forbes list of the 400 richest people in the United States was released, the hot debate still did not subside. Just at this time, it was rumored that a TV play directed and created by Simon westero was on the air, and even the women's program of a women's TV station naturally attracted a lot of attention.

USA TV network has also seized this opportunity and spared no effort to promote desperate housewives.

Of course, just as box office is to a movie, for a TV series, ratings are always an unavoidable topic, "Desperate Housewives" in the end, still depends on ratings.

"Desperate Housewives" finally, on its first day of broadcasting, the average audience of the first episode of "Desperate Housewives" reached 7.36 million, with a core audience rating of 4.1 between the ages of 18 and 49. At the same time, the highest number of viewers of the whole first episode of the series also surged to a high of 8.71 million, and the highest number appeared in the second half of the first episode, which also vaguely indicates that the ratings of subsequent episodes of desperate housewives are likely to continue to rise.

Meanwhile, "Desperate Housewives" reached sixth place in ratings on Thursday night.

The top five are all TV programs of public TV network.

In contrast, the second episode of the second season of "New York wife", which was originally intended to be the lead of "Desperate Housewives", has an average audience of 5.91 million, with a core audience rating of 2.7, which is a bit higher than the average audience of 5.76 million in the first episode.

You know, usually, the audience rating of the first episode of a non premiere sequel is relatively high.

Obviously, the New York wife not only did not lead the popularity of desperate housewives, but also increased the audience rating due to the influence of desperate housewives.

On Thursday night, NBC's law and order, with 17.56 million viewers and 10.7 ratings, had the highest ratings.

The ratings of law and order and desperate housewives seem to be quite different. However, the coverage of NBC is almost nationwide, while the audience coverage of USA is only one third of the population of the United States. Moreover, the positioning of women's TV station of USA television network once again limits the play of desperate housewives.

Under the dual influence, "Desperate Housewives" has reached an average audience of 7.36 million, and it continues to rise. As a cable TV series, it has reached the "phenomenal level".

If the two plays are put on the same platform, it is not hard to imagine that the ratings of desperate housewives can definitely beat law and order.

With the exposure of the ratings data of desperate housewives and the hot discussion in the media, many cable TV suppliers have started to contact danilisi entertainment, hoping to introduce USA TV network.

In order to speed up the promotion of USA TV network, the cable TV network has not increased the share of operators in the past year. However, as the number of operators requiring the introduction of USA TV network increases, the management team can also start to consider raising the share price.

At the same time, the rise in the advertising price of USA TV network is immediate.

While busy planning the follow-up development strategy, danielis entertainment also announced that it held a celebration party for the creative team of the series at the weekend after the broadcast of desperate housewives.

Although USA TV network is jointly owned by Denise entertainment and paramount communications, the location of the celebration party is naturally chosen in the activity center of Maribu Denise studios.

On September 19, when it was dark, the staff activity center on the second floor of danielis studio was already full of people.

The three main programs of USA TV network have been put on the shelves one after another recently, not only "Desperate Housewives" just started, but also the other two, the new season "Beverly's wife" and "New York's wife" have also obtained very good ratings data. In addition, the creators of some other programs of the TV network have also been invited. Therefore, the party hall is obviously with a few friends It means that Yin is flourishing and Yang is declining.

"Ms. ward, your role as the perfect housewife Bree is so wonderful and charming. I can't wait to see the second episode."

"Thank you Sir

"My name is Jon Peterson."

"Oh, I know, Mr. Peterson. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you, too," Jon Peterson politely shook hands with Sheila ward again, and then said casually, "by the way, Ms. ward, I happen to have a project role that suits you very well. Can I leave a contact information? Maybe we can have a chat sometime?"

Although she used to have a very low coffee position, Sheila ward knew a lot about Hollywood's internal trends.

As the head of Sony's Columbia film business, and one of Hollywood's oldest producers, he has worked with Spielberg and other celebrities. If it's other actresses, Jon Peterson's suggestion can be easily "captured.".But at this time, listening to the middle-aged man in front of her, the smile on Shira Ward's face didn't change much, but her eyes subconsciously looked for the next one in the crowd.

Still didn't see a guy.

Some disappointed, but did not hesitate.

Sometimes, the more simply you refuse, the less trouble you have.

Relying on the success of desperate housewives, although it's only a TV series, she also knows that she has a firm foothold in Hollywood. If everything goes well for this USA series, it's absolutely possible to shoot more than three seasons, even five or six seasons.

Such a long time is enough for her to look for further opportunities completely independent of external forces.

Since some guy put her in this TV play, she will probably only be in the TV circle in the future. However, it's not bad. She is 36 years old this year. In the film circle, without strong support, it would have been difficult for her to make great progress.

Making up her mind quickly, Sheila ward shook her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Peterson. I don't have a business card with me tonight."

"It doesn't matter," Jon Peterson repeatedly didn't feel the woman's refusal in front of him. He took out his business card and handed it to him. He said, "it has my contact information, Ms. ward. If you are interested, you can contact me at any time."

Seeing this, Sheila Ward had to reach out and take the card.

As an old Hollywood producer, John Peterson is certainly not lack of his own pride. He left decisively after giving a business card.

Shira ward hesitated for a moment with a glass of champagne in one hand and a business card in the other. She was about to put the business card into her handbag. It was hard to throw it directly on such an occasion. She noticed the commotion not far away and saw a young man at a glance.

Westrow was chatting with Martin Davis, chairman of paramount communications, as he walked into the hall, accompanied by several other people, and the guests in the hall turned their attention to a young man.

Unfortunately, the other side also happened to look at it, and looked at the card in her hand with great interest.

Inexplicably, there is a feeling of being caught.

Then the bottom of my heart secretly bah two, oneself, only had a one night stand with him. Although, well, that night in Seattle was really wonderful, a man rarely appeared in her life afterwards.

Hollywood is very big, she is just a small person after all.

The opposite eye contact immediately withdraw, just for a moment, as if nothing happened.

Sheila ward noticed that many of her guests were quietly gathering towards westero. She felt even more guilty. She quietly pushed in the opposite direction and put the card in her handbag, as if to prove that she was not afraid of someone.

On the other hand, Simon nodded to the guests from time to time. Finally, he came to a sofa in the corner of the hall and sat down. He talked with Martin Davis about the next step of USA TV network planning. The topic did not turn to the cooperation between the two sides in film.

During this time, Simon has been thinking about whether to continue to delay the development of the "mission impossible" series.

The main thing is that next year's schedule is really a little crowded.

Especially at the end of next year.

Only Denise entertainment, if all the films originally planned to quit, will have 3D animation "Lion King", "Forrest Gump" and "mission impossible" in cooperation with Paramount Pictures. In addition, the DC movie "steel bone" will be released at the end of next year.

For the time being, the lion king and Forrest Gump, two blockbusters with a domestic box office volume of US $300 million to US $400 million in the original time and space, would have consumed most of the resources in one schedule. If mission impossible and steel bone were included, the result would only cause internal friction.

It is also possible to adjust the schedule.

However, in the summer of 1994, there was Batman: the rise of the dark knight.

This is another $300 million blockbuster.

It's the same in the future.

It can't be delayed all the time.

After a long deliberation and several discussions with paramount, Simon made a general decision that the development plan of mission impossible remained the same, and the schedule of Lion King remained unchanged. Meanwhile, Forrest Gump was adjusted to the summer season of 1994, and the release date was roughly determined to be the Independence Day holiday in the United States in July, which was one month different from Batman: the rise of the dark knight in June Month time.

Independence Day is very suitable for the theme of Forrest Gump, and Batman: the rise of the Dark Knight will not have a serious impact on Forrest Gump.

As for the end of 1993, a 300 million dollar blockbuster will be reduced, and other films will have enough room to play.
