Chapter 606 How Come the Ratings Went up Even Though I Said I Wouldn’t Watch It Anymore?

In this era, it is rare to see a drama with a rating of over 3.

Even the popular "Kuang Biao" last year, the peak rating was only 2.0, still not over 3.

It is conceivable how difficult it is to get a rating of over 3.

This requires many viewers who did not watch TV dramas to start watching TV dramas again.

The target group is not only young people, but also the elderly.

On Earth, the drama "Bright Sword" is indeed a drama suitable for all ages, and people of all ages can feel refreshed when watching this drama.

"Kuang Biao" and "Wulin Wai Zhuan" are not as good as "Bright Sword", which is also related to the subject matter of the two.

As long as the anti-Japanese war drama is well made, there is naturally a huge market in China.

This is a big studio that quickly released the promotional posters prepared in advance.

To be honest, before the broadcast of "Bright Sword", Xu Ye did not expect the ratings to be so high, directly breaking the record in recent years.

It was not until the ratings began to rise that he realized that the ratings had a chance to break 3.

As for Du Chonglin, he was already dancing with excitement.

He had filmed dramas with a rating of over 3 before, and more than one.

But that was useless, it had something to do with the times.

Now filming such a drama shows real strength.

"Filming a movie? I can't make a shitty movie!"

Du Chonglin's mind is now full of thoughts, and he must make "Soldier Assault" well.

It's really cool to break a record in the TV drama circle.

It was Du Chonglin who reminded Xu Ye of this promotional poster, and he felt it was necessary to prepare in advance.

When this poster was released, the patients of Huohua Hospital rushed to Weibo as soon as possible.

"Congratulations on the ratings of "Bright Sword" breaking 3!"

"The dean and Director Du joined forces to really kill people, Director Du was responsible for the killing, and the dean was responsible for the killing!"

"I would like to call it one of the pinnacle works of domestic anti-Japanese war dramas!"

"Bright Sword is really too popular, today even the children in our community are shouting to fire!"

The patients expressed their recognition of the achievements of "Bright Sword" one after another.

In addition, some netizens who searched for "Bright Sword" also expressed their love for it.

The official Weibo account of Penguin Video also reposted it immediately.

During the period when "Bright Sword" was broadcast, Penguin Video can be said to have made a lot of money.

Originally, because Xu Ye was not in the show, Penguin Video was on the sidelines.

To be honest, Penguin Video has never seen such a surge in data.

This is too outrageous.

However, when "Bright Sword" was broadcast on the first day, Penguin Video increased its publicity efforts.

On the platform, "Bright Sword" broke various records and became the main work of the platform.

Moreover, such a popular TV series is not only popular now, but will continue to bring new users to Penguin Video in the future.

After Penguin Video reposted it, the official Weibo account of Tomato Video also reposted it and expressed congratulations.

Subsequently, many people in the entertainment industry reposted it.

"Congratulations to "Bright Sword" for breaking the 3% rating!"

"Congratulations to Xu Ye, Du Chonglin, and Jiang Linye!"

"The best TV series in China in the past two years!"

The overwhelming publicity came, and these were all spontaneous actions.

Even some official media reported on this.

Everyone is talking about "Bright Sword", and "War on the Prairie" seems to have been forgotten by everyone.

The lead actor Wang Jiahao was dumbfounded.

"My drama is also very good!"

Wang Jiahao felt more and more that his luck in the past year was really bad.

Since he rejected Xu Ye's invitation to the variety show, his career has been on a downward slope, and nothing he does is going well.

Based on the current data of "War on the Prairie", it would be a hit in normal times.

But because the opponent is "Bright Sword", it has not received any of the honors it should have.

The flowers, applause and cheers all belong to "Bright Sword".

For Wang Jiahao, this did not meet his expectations at all.

After spending so much effort and publicity in the early stage, the influence it has now is not even as good as an ordinary drama at other times.

In the end, Wang Jiahao summarized and analyzed the reasons.

"It's not my problem, but the problem of Bluebird Entertainment. As long as it is related to Bluebird Entertainment, no business has been successful."

He finally realized that Xu Ye had already used practical actions to influence this giant in the entertainment industry.

"What does the conflict between Bluebird and Xu Ye have to do with me?"

Wang Jiahao quickly called his agent over, and the two chatted for more than an hour.

In the end, the two reached a consensus.

In the future, the studio will cut off all business dealings with Bluebird Entertainment.

Subsequently, the official Weibo of Wang Jiahao's studio and Wang Jiahao's personal Weibo forwarded the celebration poster of "Bright Sword" and sent blessings.

At this time, Wang Jiahao didn't want to make things so stiff.

He had to be active in front of the stage, unlike Song Zhengqi who was active behind the scenes.

The impact of online public opinion on him was much greater than that on Song Zhengqi.

Since "Bright Sword" is already unstoppable, let's give him another wave.

After these two Weibo posts were sent out, Wang Jiahao's fans also started to quarrel.

Some fans felt that "we are fighting to the death, why did your Majesty surrender first?"

This group of fans felt betrayed by Wang Jiahao.

The studio also took this opportunity to win over a wave of fans.

This group of fans who are not very bright-minded are the group of fans Wang Jiahao attracted when he took the traffic route.

The difference from normal fans is that fans in the fandom are more crazy.

Although his mobility is okay, he is very possessive and controlling, and he always points his fingers at celebrities' private lives and careers.

Wang Jiahao himself is a bit tireless, and the studio has also discovered that the road to traffic is not easy to follow, so it is better to rely on acting skills to take the route of strength.

With Wang Jiahao's current acting skills, he is enough to beat the current traffic stars.

After Wang Jiahao expressed his goodwill, the heroine Bai Shuyan also forwarded Weibo to send her blessings.

Bai Shuyan is now a member of 85 Flowers. She is not a contracted artist of Jade Bird Entertainment, but a star of another entertainment company.

This time when I starred in "Catching Fire", I also wanted to transform into a drama.

The result is also obvious, a slight failure.

For Bai Shuyan, her acting is to maintain exposure and maintain her identity and status in the entertainment industry.

As a result, this wave continued and she almost fell to death.

Bai Shuyan's company also found out and could no longer cooperate with Jade Bird Entertainment.

When Song Zhengqi learned that both Wang Jiahao and Bai Shuyan had posted congratulatory messages on Weibo, he smashed all the computer monitors in the office.

"Trash! A bunch of trash!"

Song Zhengqi's face turned red with anger and he cursed in the office.

The ratings of "Bright Sword" exceeded three, which was equivalent to a slap in his face.

The atmosphere in the entire company has been a bit off lately, and some people are feeling panicked.

Song Zhengqi can naturally feel it.

At this time, Song Zhengqi's cell phone rang.

He quickly picked up the phone.

A middle-aged man's voice rang on the phone.

"Mr. Song, I'm really sorry. Something happened to me recently and I need money urgently. The investment I mentioned before can't be made for the time being. I'm sorry."

After the other party finished speaking, he hung up the phone without talking for a few words. He obviously had no intention of continuing the conversation with Song Zhengqi.

As a result, two more calls like this came in succession.

One was a call from a celebrity agent who originally planned to sign a contract with Jade Bird Entertainment, saying that he needed to think about it again.

The other one was called by a director, saying that he no longer had time to direct the web series produced by Jade Bird Entertainment.

These people are scared.

If it's just ordinary business competition, that's it. Xu Ye is now staring at Jade Bird Entertainment, and everyone is scared when he sees it.

There are so many places to make money in the entertainment industry, there is no need to fight with Jade Bird Entertainment.

After hanging up the phone, Song Zhengqi sat on a chair, his face full of anger.

He shouted: "Where are the people? Come here!"

The secretary opened the door and walked in with some fear.

Song Zhengqi ordered: "Continue to buy navy troops, don't stop!"

Mr. Song, who has always wanted to be strong in his life, doesn't want to admit defeat. It's not the end yet.

So what if it breaks three? Maintaining it is the real skill.

However, the trolls' efforts to publish blackmail online are of little use, as the audience's eyes are sharp.

Tonight, "Bright Sword" has updated its sixteenth and seventeenth episodes again.

These two episodes can be said to be the most frustrating parts of "Bright Sword". The monk was robbed by bandits on his way to deliver a letter to the division headquarters. The monk killed several bandits, but was attacked from behind by the second leader of the bandits, Shanmao, and died.

After learning about this, Li Yunlong was furious to avenge the monk and killed his enemy himself, but he also caused a big disaster.

After tonight's two episodes were aired, the discussion online went into overdrive.

"The monk is such a good person, why should we let him die?"

"The monk is so pitiful, Xu Ye, you have no heart!"

"The plot today made me so angry that I don't even want to continue reading."

"My chest feels so tight when I see it!"

After these discussions came out, Song Zhengqi was overjoyed.

He finally waited until the audience said they didn't want to watch.

Then hurry up and set the pace!

"It's really you who wrote such an important role to death!" Song Zhengqi felt much better.

But when the ratings came out the next day, his face fell.

The ratings of "Bright Sword" rose to 3.13.

The ratings of "War on Fire" dropped directly to 2.01.

The gap in ratings between the two has reached more than one.

On the Internet, trolls and black fans are still fighting tooth and nail.

Indeed, the death of the monk in the play is indeed a pity. From a plot point of view, this is also the need of the plot.

Audiences also have their own opinions on this.

In Song Zhengqi's opinion, the ratings of tonight's "Bright Sword" must have dropped.

At eight o'clock in the evening, music critic Jing Xiyue stood in front of the tablet.

Her eyes were still a little red, which was all from watching "Bright Sword". She had been crying for two days in a row.

The first time was Xiu Qin's death, and the second time was the monk's death.

She had already scolded Xu Ye bloody in her heart, but she still felt that "Bright Sword" was worth watching.

She was still thinking about writing a drama review, and she was more curious about what Li Yunlong's fate would be next.

"There should be no tears today, right?" Jing Xiyue said in her heart.

At eight o'clock, episode 18 starts.

Zhao Gang paced for a long time in front of the entire regiment's soldiers, and finally announced the punishment from his superiors.

Li Yunlong was dismissed from his position as regimental commander and demoted to commander of the first battalion.

Li Yunlong packed his luggage and prepared to go to the battalion headquarters. As he was packing his things, he subconsciously shouted: "Monk, monk, go get that..."

After he finished speaking, he realized that the monk was no longer there.

Li Yunlong sat on the bed and fell into memories. He had not yet adapted to life without a monk.

He left the regiment headquarters under the watchful eyes of the soldiers.

On the way to the camp headquarters, he met Zhao Gang who was waiting for him.

Li Yunlong stepped forward, saluted Zhao Gang and turned around to leave.

Zhao Gang called out Li Yunlong.

He circled around Li Yunlong but said nothing. After a pause, Zhao Gang punched Li Yunlong directly.

Li Yunlong was knocked to the ground and shouted: "You are so fucking crazy, how dare you hit me!"

Jing Xiyue looked at this somewhat funny scene, but couldn't laugh at all.

Zhao Gang scolded: "You bastard!"

"You throw such a large group of thousands of people to me, Zhao Gang, are you sincerely laughing at my lack of military knowledge?" Zhao Gang said with an indignation.

"How many battles are waiting for us to fight, how many Japanese are waiting for us to clean up, and the surrounding situation is so complicated. Do you think this regiment will ever be able to do without you as its leader!"

"But you, you just want to be happy for a while. It's okay for me, Zhao Gang, to roast it on the fire, but how do you want me to lead this regiment?"

Jing Xiyue was a little depressed when she watched this episode at the beginning. The death of the monk caused a huge change in the direction of the entire plot.

Hearing Zhao Gang's words at this time, Jing Xiyue just sighed in her heart.

At this time, Li Yunlong also said angrily: "Who do you blame! If you weren't injured, it wouldn't be a problem. You can't blame me alone!"

Zhao Gang said angrily: "You always point to me to remind you, but your own brain is too much. You can't let a stone trip three times, right?"

Li Yunlong immediately said: "You, Mr. Zhao, are not talking according to your conscience! You were hospitalized, and I, Li Yunlong, lost three things. My wife was killed by the devils, and my brother who was alive and dead was beheaded by the bandits. Plus you This political commissar who has been in a coma for twenty-three days.”

"Even if it is a stone, it should be warm if it is placed on my chest, Li Yunlong."

Listening to Li Yunlong's words, Jing Xiyue's tears immediately came out.

With tears in his eyes, Li Yunlong said: "I'm not made of iron, I also have a heart, I also have a liver, and I also have feelings! Tell me, who should I talk to if you're not around?"

His tone was harsh, but what he said was the most touching words.

Jing Xiyue burst into tears instantly.

"Xu Ye, you stabbed me again, wuwuwu!"

Li Yunlong's heartfelt words made Zhao Gang understand his difficulties, and the two held their hands tightly.

Jing Xiyue just continued to read.

In her opinion, Li Yunlong's line was just right, which raised Li Yunlong's image to another level.

"It's good-looking, but it's a Taidao man." Jing Xiyue sighed in her heart.

She decided that she would start writing drama reviews for "Bright Sword".

This show is worth it!

The next day, the ratings were announced again.

The ratings of "Bright Sword" have risen again, reaching 3.21.

As for CCTV's "Catching Fire", the ratings have dropped to 1.98.

Song Zhengqi looked at the ratings data and felt dumbfounded.

Yesterday, everyone on the Internet told me not to watch it. Why did the ratings still increase?

You liars!
