On February 12th, as the national favorite drama, "Empresses in the Palace" is undoubtedly at the top, still active during the Chinese New Year box office, 12 years after its release.
With the arrival of the Spring Festival, it's once again time for "Empresses in the Palace." "My dad is watching the scene of blood recognition on TV, my mom is playing 'Against the Wind, Easy Not to Be Destroyed' on her tablet, while I'm lying in my room, watching tipsy Sister Mei and Dr. Wen chatting on my phone with two cats by my side."
Each enjoying their own "Empresses in the Palace," this is the entertainment activity for Cai Cai (pseudonym) and her family after buying New Year goods and gathering with relatives and friends.
It must be said that "Empresses in the Palace" is the biggest dividend that LeTV has ever received. On April 19, 2011, LeTV announced that it spent over 20 million CNY to purchase the exclusive online copyright of the TV series "Empresses in the Palace."
Calculating an average annual income of 10 million CNY, from 2018 to 2027, LeTV can still earn at least another 100 million CNY. At that time, the topic of "Empresses in the Palace earns millions in annual broadcast revenue" also became a hot search, with netizens commenting, "Empresses in the Palace, ensuring LeTV's lifelong peace."
Of course, with the financial black hole left by Jia Yueting before, the income from "Empresses in the Palace" alone is not enough to repay LeTV's huge debts.
