Chapter 1194

Originally, according to Luo Quan's idea, taking advantage of the show's high popularity to film more of the contestants' daily lives would make their images more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

As a result, the Entertainment Management Bureau is now begging her to stop her supernatural powers. Broadcasting only once a week like a normal show means the popularity will plummet compared to the plan.

The benefits at hand are greatly reduced, which is something Luo Quan cannot accept no matter what.

However, just as she was about to refuse, the person on the other end of the phone earnestly persuaded her: "Holy Mother, I know you must be very dissatisfied with such an arrangement; after all, no one is willing to give up such a huge benefit for nothing.

But you have to know that the Universe doesn't just have your variety show; how many people's hard work and works are airing with you this summer vacation.

If you broadcast around the clock, you will only squeeze out the living space of others. It only benefits you, but for the entire market, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

We need more diversified content; otherwise, if everyone goes to do idol auditions, how will practitioners of other types of variety shows survive?

I admire that you can make the show so good, but you really can't leave no way for your peers to survive.

Your show can support hundreds or thousands of people, but during the time your show is airing, tens of thousands of times more people will have nothing to eat.

The livelihood of a million canal workers is at stake; you are so smart, Holy Mother, you should be able to understand.

According to data, during the airing of "Universe Girls," the ratings of other variety shows have fallen to their lowest historical values, whether popular or niche, old or newly launched, all have been affected.

If you are willing to raise your hand, these people will definitely remember your kindness.

Even if they don't remember, at least our Entertainment Management Bureau won't forget!"

The Entertainment Management Bureau, full name Universe Entertainment Management Bureau, is responsible for managing all entertainment projects in the Universe, with a business scope including reviewing, broadcasting, and rebroadcasting programs, etc.

Logically speaking, knowing that Luo Quan has a close relationship with the Empress, the Entertainment Management Bureau would definitely give the green light to all of Luo Quan's actions.

But the fact that they came to cause trouble as soon as the show started shows that the problems caused are indeed very serious.

And after listening to the person in charge of the Entertainment Management Bureau state the pros and cons, although Luo Quan was still a bit unhappy, she decided to recite a sutra once to show her kindness.

Actually, she hadn't been this ruthless on Earth either.

If she filmed a blockbuster movie every month, each showing for a month, then one after another...

With her current popularity, as long as the movie is above standard, the box office of each one can easily exceed two billion.

This achievement might not be much for a single period, but if there is one every month, it is quite terrifying.

You know, this year's Spring Festival box office was the highest in recent years, but it was just barely over ten billion.

In many off-seasons, it's good to have a cumulative box office of three or four billion.

If Luo Quan really did twelve movies a year, filming movies without repeating every month, she would definitely make a fortune, but her peers would basically have no way to survive.

Movie box office is closely related to the number of screenings. If cinemas want to make money, they will definitely give more screenings to movies with high popularity, good word-of-mouth, and high box office. As for those with average performance, they can probably only show four or five times a day, or even less.

The fewer the screenings, the worse the performance, and then it enters a vicious cycle.

Over time, whether it's a small-budget or a big production, they will all harvest box office far below expectations under Luo Quan's squeeze.

It's already difficult for movies to break even now, and every time they are released, they have to compete with an opponent that steadily sucks in two billion; this difficulty is simply hell-level.

And they must harvest as much box office as possible within a month, because next month, Luo Quan will have a new movie released.

If such a thing really happens, the audience of Chinese movies might become more tasteful under the influence of Luo Quan's good films.

But other directors and investors will probably be miserable.

As for those small companies with weak anti-risk capabilities, I'm afraid they will die without a burial place.

And this potential situation is exactly what Luo Quan is doing in the Universe, and it's even worse.

A movie can be finished in two or three hours at most. On Saturdays and Sundays, there is more free time, and one person can watch two or three.

And most people won't watch a movie again after watching it once. At this time, they will also choose other movies.

But "Universe Girls" is different. This livestream starts for ten hours, from waking up in the morning to sleeping at night.

This is the trainees' daily routine, and it is also the audience's routine.

After watching the livestream of "Universe Girls," except for idlers without jobs, who has time to watch other programs?

Unless they get bored halfway through, they will choose other variety shows.

But now "Universe Girls" has just started airing, and the audience is in high spirits; where would they feel bored?

Just the growth process of these hundred trainees is enough for them to watch for several weeks. Watching three a day, it will take a month to finish.

In an industry like the entertainment circle where money is burned every second, what is the concept of spending money for a month without opening for business?

Big companies will feel the pain, let alone those small companies.

And the Entertainment Management Bureau was the first to get the show's broadcast data. The frighteningly high ratings and retention rates made them immediately realize the severity of the problem.

So when other variety shows were still envying Luo Quan, the Entertainment Management Bureau had already analyzed what consequences would be brought if "Universe Girls" continued to be so popular.

After careful consideration, the Entertainment Management Bureau decided to negotiate with Luo Quan, even if it meant pestering her to stop her supernatural powers.

However, Luo Quan was easier to talk to than they imagined. This person in charge was even prepared to kneel on the ground and shout "Holy Mother, spare my life."

After all, Luo Quan has such a good relationship with the Empress and is the Holy Mother of the Dawn Church, so they definitely can't be hard on her.

If hard tactics don't work, then they can only use soft ones. Since they are already kneeling and begging, even if she has a heart of stone, she will have some compassion.

However, Luo Quan has never been a woman with a heart of stone. After thinking clearly about what the person in charge said to her, she also felt that things couldn't be done like this.

She originally thought that there were so many people in the Universe and the market was big enough that her show wouldn't cause a monopoly even if it was popular.

Now it seems that she underestimated the influence of "Universe Girls." It has simply reached the point of being a national variety show from the first episode.

In this situation, Luo Quan is both happy and worried.

The worry is that the shooting plan she just had the camera crew change has to be changed back, using the first plan.

For designers, this kind of thing is more painful than killing them; it means that all the efforts made to modify it after the first plan have become useless.

But there is no way, who let the Entertainment Management Bureau not allow it; she also listens to advice to eat well.

The happy thing is that the Entertainment Management Bureau doesn't intend to let her suffer in silence like this. Luo Quan agreed so readily, they also have to give some benefits.

Things like homepage recommendations, trending search arrangements, etc., are all basic and must be there without saying.

Secondly, it is rebroadcasting. Originally, the matter of rebroadcasting the show to other civilizations was something Luo Quan was busy with alone.

Now she doesn't have to worry about these things anymore; the Entertainment Management Bureau will be responsible for getting things done, ensuring that there will be no mistakes.

In addition, all trainees participating in this show, regardless of whether they are eliminated in the end, can obtain certain entertainment resources to maintain the hard-won popularity for a considerable period of time.

This is the benefit Luo Quan fought for the trainees, and it can also be said to be compensation for them.

The number of people in "Universe Girls" is nine, and her company has six candidates, which means the other ninety-four people only compete for three spots.

"That is indeed the case." Li Xiaomiao nodded, then said to Bai Bai Xingwei: "Sister Weiwei, let's go find Sister Chenchen. She should be practicing dance right now; let's go together."

So even if she knows it's unfair, she can't split the quota in half.

But she is not a ruthless person. For these girls who lost at the starting line, Luo Quan is willing to provide considerable help.

Around-the-clock livestreaming is one of the contents of the help.

The duration of each episode is limited. If it is divided equally among every trainee, it will be even less.

But if it is in the form of a livestream, the exposure time each person can get will become quite considerable, so that the popularity and fan count of each trainee can gain greater growth.

Originally seeing the show so popular, Luo Quan thought that everyone could compete with third- or fourth-tier small stars when leaving the show.

But once the shooting plan is changed, most people's time will be compressed to a relatively uncomfortable amount.

That's why Luo Quan asked the person in charge for some resources so that these trainees could still have a chance to continue to be popular after leaving the show.

This is a little compensation for her selfishness to the innocent trainees.

The truth of the matter certainly cannot be told to them. There is no need to let them know such a cruel fact; they only need to know that even if they are eliminated early, there is still a chance to turn the tables.

Thinking about it, after this news is announced, I guess most trainees will still feel grateful to her, which is really ironic.

But no matter what, she has an explanation for those trainees.

However, the audience must be the only loser in this plan change.

Having several times less viewing content out of thin air is simply a blood loss.

So after Luo Quan announced that the morning routine livestream of "Universe Girls" would only last for this one day, many viewers exploded:

"Then who will make up for the fun I'm missing?"

"What happened to the around-the-clock livestream? Why did it change to once a week?"

"Holy Mother, do you know how sad I am now? Your behavior is nakedly playing with everyone's feelings!"

"I'm going to die on days without 'Universe Girls'."

"How can you give an explanation, and what about compensation?"

"If you livestream in a swimsuit, then it's still possible to consider forgiving you."

"Why not let the hundred girls of the show be in swimsuits together? Then everyone will definitely have no opinion."

"Damn, this is a good idea!"

"I raise both hands and feet in favor!"

………………

Even Luo Quan, after reading those last few suggestions, had to praise: You are really a genius.

It's not enough for her to wear a swimsuit; they actually want to see all the trainees wear swimsuits. They are quite bold.

However, this kind of behavior is not uncommon. The Seine in China and AKB in Japan have done it; it seems to be called a swimsuit festival or something.

Anyway, it's dozens of girls in a group wearing swimsuits and filming MVs by the sea.

Actually, Springwater Company had a team-building event by the sea before and filmed a lot of videos.

Those who say these things must be new fans who haven't seen the videos she uploaded.

But this is indeed a good suggestion. After all, a hundred swimsuit beauties compared to a mere dozen people, the visual effect is indeed worlds apart.

However, her prestige should not be high enough to make so many girls obediently go to the sea to film swimsuit videos.

This kind of thing is not something everyone can accept, and there will definitely be resistance.

So for such a suggestion, Luo Quan directly pretended not to see it.

But an explanation still had to be given, so Luo Quan specially opened a livestream to respond to the fans: "The trainees' daily lives will still be filmed, but they won't be livestreamed.

But the videos filmed every week will be edited and then launched together after the release of each episode.

By then, after everyone finishes watching the trainees' performance on stage, they can also watch what they look like in their daily lives.

Although it might take a little longer to wait, everyone actually hasn't lost much.

And during the livestream, it's easy to encounter a lot of boring content, but if it's after editing, you basically don't have to worry about this situation. The director will try his best to edit out the interesting content for everyone to see."

After getting the reply, the mood of a group of fans was relieved, but they were not completely satisfied:

"So, is that all? This seems to be what we could see from the beginning."

"Why on earth change the broadcast plan? I can't figure out what it means to leave traffic and not earn it."

"Perhaps it's because the traffic is too big, so they dare not earn it?"

"Is there anything the Holy Mother dares not do?"

"It's not that she doesn't dare, but she can't. The cake is only so big. If your show is too popular and everyone comes to watch your show, what will other peers do?"

"If you do a bad job, you deserve no one to watch. What kind of skill is it to be jealous of others? If you have the ability, make a popular show yourself."

"It's not that simple. That's true, but Luo Quan herself can't go too far. Everything must be done in moderation."

"The entertainment circle is not about killing each other; it's about human relationships."

"Anyway, it's highly likely that the Entertainment Management Bureau negotiated it. It's impossible for the higher-ups to watch Luo Quan dominate alone."

"Sigh, it's really a pity."

………………

Among the fans, there are still many sensible people.

Their analysis in the bullet comments helped Luo Quan save the effort of explaining to everyone.
