Chapter 602: Draw the Sword, Start Broadcasting!
The posters of both sides are full of gunpowder.
These two dramas have been competing for a long time, and the audience is also waiting for this day.
As for the grievances between Bluebird Entertainment and Xu Ye, it is no longer a secret. Various marketing accounts have made the things at that time very clear.
Netizens who are slightly interested can find out the specific situation by searching.
Bluebird Entertainment, a giant in the entertainment industry.
Xu Ye's company has just started not long ago. If you want to compete with such an old company, there are still some shortcomings in all aspects.
But Xu Ye relied on hard power to prevent Bluebird Entertainment from taking advantage of him once, and even affected the status of Bluebird Entertainment in the circle.
You are still one of the four major companies?
If you can't even handle Xu Ye, don't say such things.
Song Zhengqi was also holding his breath in his heart. He had lost so many times, he had to win once.
One was unstoppable, and the other was directly showing his sword.
After seeing this scene, the audience also discussed it.
"If it's a duel between masters, I always feel that something is not right. The official account of "Bright Sword" has not even been created."
"You said that the dean doesn't care about this drama, but in fact, he does. But even if he cares about it, this drama is still a little worse than other dramas in terms of publicity and promotion."
"Without an official account, how can you promote the plot of a TV series? Do you really use the studio's account to promote it?"
The spectators were a little confused.
"War on the Prairie" carried out various pre-airing publicity today.
The content of these publicity is also very simple, such as how much effort this drama has put in, and then find some industry insiders to comment on it, saying that this drama is very good.
They also took some clips from the drama, etc., and praised the actors' acting skills.
They said how great this drama is from multiple angles.
As for the various negative articles against "Bright Sword", they are also inevitable.
You know, "Bright Sword" was only filmed for more than three months, which is a place that can be criticized.
You only filmed a war film for more than three months, can you make a good film?
Xu Ye ignored all these.
It was eight o'clock in the evening.
On CCTV's comprehensive channel, "War on the Prairie" officially started broadcasting.
Chang'an TV also released advertisements for "Bright Sword" on TV many days in advance.
Today, Chang'an TV broadcast three episodes in a row.
With the help of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" and "Kuang Biao", the number of users of Chang'an TV is better than before.
But in recent years, it is an indisputable fact that fewer and fewer people watch TV. This is the general trend.
Huang Bo, the director of Chang'an TV, knew that Xu Ye was competing with "War on the Prairie". He just thought that he was going to compete with "War on the Prairie" for online broadcast data.
He never thought that Chang'an TV would compete with CCTV for ratings.
What a joke, how can a local station compete with CCTV for ratings? At most, it is infinitely close, and it is impossible to win.
What Huang Bo didn't know was that Xu Ye's idea was to use "Bright Sword" to compete with CCTV for ratings.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Pi Dan, the UP host of the ghost animal area of Xiaolanzhan, was already waiting on Penguin Video.
He didn't like watching dramas on TV, but preferred to watch them on the computer.
The main reason was that the membership he had charged on Penguin Video had not expired yet.
Penguin Video also updated three episodes in one go tonight.
In other words, Pi Dan didn't often watch dramas of this theme.
This is a natural limitation of the theme.
After all, everyone watches dramas to relax, and few people would specifically look for dramas of this theme to relax.
After all, there are too many dramas of various types on the Internet. "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is called a drama for eating, because this drama is easy to watch and is really good for eating.
This special theme drama is different.
"Even if this drama is a tear-jerking drama like that rabbit, I will accept it. Who made me a fan of Xu Ye?" Pi Dan said in his heart.
Penguin Video has given a huge poster promotion page for "Bright Sword".
Although in the eyes of Penguin Video, Xu Ye did not participate in this drama, the data is bound to be not very good.
If Xu Ye was the lead actor, they would still think that this drama could compete with "War on the Prairie", but the problem is that Xu Ye is just a screenwriter.
However, the cooperation between Penguin Video and Xu Ye is already very stable. They value Xu Ye as a person, and they don't mind giving "Drawing Sword" some help in publicity.
Pi Dan clicked into the first episode.
Because there was no setting to skip the opening, the opening song "Chinese Military Soul" sounded again.
If it was a normal TV series, Pi Dan would have skipped this opening.
But this time he did not choose to skip, but listened to the song carefully and looked at the picture in the opening.
You can still see something from the picture here.
After the opening song ended, the main film officially began.
A text narration appeared, introducing the background of the story.
After this background introduction, the sound of gunfire sounded, and the picture came directly to the battlefield.
This kind of battle scene is still very attractive.
Especially the little devils in it actually spoke Japanese, and the sense of immersion was full.
These details were recorded by Pi Dan.
Because he had made a complaining video before, which was also a war drama. The Japanese soldiers in the video all spoke Mandarin, and their Mandarin was very standard.
Don't say anything in Mandarin to make it easier for the audience to understand. Chinese audiences have long been accustomed to reading subtitles while watching the picture.
Many dramas have the Japanese speak Mandarin, most likely to save money.
Speaking Japanese costs more.
The plot at the beginning is also very common. Through the conversation between the Japanese and Japanese, it highlights how powerful Li Yunlong is.
This method has been used many times in movies and TV series.
Not long after, Li Yunlong appeared.
When Li Yunlong opened his mouth, Pi Dan felt something different.
This role is very different from what he expected.
Li Yunlong has a strong gangster spirit, and he is not the perfect character that is common in this type of drama.
In fact, Li Yunlong is an artistically processed character that combines some historical figures.
The popularity of the show "Bright Sword" is inseparable from the charm of the characters.
When Li Yunlong talked with Zhang Dabiao, he said that he wanted to launch a counterattack against the enemy.
This made Zhang Dabiao a little worried.
"Captain, they are the elite of the Japanese."
Li Yunlong said with a nonchalant expression: "What the hell are you elites? I'm fighting elites!"
As soon as this sentence came out, this sentence also rolled over on the barrage.
“It’s funny and exciting!”
Pidan recorded it again, feeling that this sentence might become popular.
Xu Ye left some famous memes for everyone in "Hurry Up" before. Even now, you can still find some lines from "Hurry Up" when surfing the Internet.
The pace of the first episode was very fast, and I just watched it in one sitting.
At the end of the first episode, Li Yunlong was sent to the clothing factory, and the special agent team led by Yamamoto also appeared.
After watching this episode, Pidan had a different feeling.
"It's different from any other drama I've seen before."
If he were really asked to analyze it, he would definitely be able to analyze it and come up with one, two, three, four, and five. If it was just a brief summary, it would be nice.
For no other reason than because it looks good.
Pidan clicked on the second episode.
The pace of the second episode is still very fast. Li Yunlong was quickly transferred to the Independent Group. This was also the first meeting between Li Yunlong and Kong Jie, the former leader of the Independent Group.
Kong Jie was demoted to a groom by his superiors due to work mistakes. Before leaving, the soldiers were reluctant to leave.
Kong Jie reprimanded: "You are fighting the Japanese for me, Kong Jie, right? You are fighting for your father, your mother, your sister, your sister, and those Chinese people who have surrendered to death!"
Kong Jie's image has also been established.
What he said is also the charm of this army.
They picked up guns to protect their families.
It is their duty to protect their loved ones, so they are even more tenacious.
At the end of the second episode, Zhao Gang came to report to Li Yunlong, but Li Yunlong didn't like this kind of intellectual. He felt that intellectuals couldn't fight, and the two had some conflicts.
Before he knew it, Pidan had finished watching the second episode.
"It's so weird that I just finished watching it. I didn't like watching this kind of drama before."
Pidan clicked into the third episode without any hesitation.
This episode is already available to members only.
As soon as the third episode opened, a sentence floated across the barrage.
“It’s all members who have to speak tougher!”
Watching this episode, Pi Dan couldn't laugh or cry. He also discovered that the person Li Yunlong fears the most is the brigade commander.
When Pi Dan saw the end of this episode, Li Yunlong had ordered the soldiers to go out to fight the Japanese, but they were all gone.
"Broken dog!" Pi Dan cursed in his heart.
He finally understood why there were three episodes in a row today. It turned out to be because the second episode was out of context and the effect was not good. The third episode was out of chapter and the effect was best!
Pi Dan did not turn on the double-speed playback when watching it. By the time he finished watching the three episodes, it was already past ten o'clock.
The plot was obviously very fast-paced, but he remembered all the characters clearly.
Li Yunlong, Kong Jie, Zhao Gang, Zhang Dabiao, artillery Wang Chengzhu, cavalry Sun Desheng, and Wei Monk.
Everyone has flesh and blood.
For example, Wang Chengzhu only had a few lines, but they still left a deep impression on him.
Pidan deeply felt that this drama was different from the dramas he had watched before.
"Let's look at the flames of war again."
He opened Orange Video.
He said before that he wanted to do analysis, and it must be well-founded. If "Catching Fire" is really good, he will not deliberately discredit it.
What he didn't expect was that he didn't hold back as soon as the plot started.
The protagonist played by Wang Jiahao is a student who graduated from a military school. His hair is neatly combed and his clothes are spotless, which is quite reasonable.
The plot did not enter the theme for a long time, but was introducing characters and various foreshadowing.
Obviously, the showrunners want to clearly introduce the identities of these leading actors first.
That's not to say it's wrong, but after watching the rhythm of "Bright Sword", I felt it was a bit slow here.
After watching the first two episodes, Pidan shook his head.
"The flames of war are ablaze."
The reason is also very simple. Even if the influence of other factors is eliminated, the core point is that "War" is not as good-looking as "Bright Sword".
