This star’s style is wrong

The next day, the ratings data of major TV stations were compiled.

The opening ratings of "Crazy" were 1.27%, which was the same as the average ratings of CCTV's TV drama channels.

It is already a good achievement to be able to tie the average ratings of the TV station at the beginning of the broadcast.

Only two episodes were aired on the first day, and the ratings data reached the average ratings. The results were good, but it was not a hit.

Therefore, it did not attract the attention of drama critics across the Internet. Only a small number of drama critics who paid attention to Ark Culture's new drama made a simple drama review after watching the first two episodes.

After all, it has only aired two episodes, so there is not much to analyze. And currently, the popularity is average, so there are no large-scale reviews of the drama.

However, there are many netizens and viewers discussing the plot of "Hurry Up" on major online platforms.

The focus of discussion basically focused on Fang Xing and Xu Zhiwen.

[The acting skills of the actors are all great. This drama is of high quality, especially Xu Zhiwen. Why wasn’t it popular before? 】

[The reason is very simple, because he just met Fang Xing now. 】

[Why is Fang Xing so thin? He is almost out of shape. He feels less handsome than before. 】

[It is true that he looks less handsome than before, but the reason is not only that he is thinner, but also tanned. More importantly, he barely wears makeup, which makes his skin condition look very bad. However, this is the normal state of ordinary people. If you find a top-notch person with oily hair and noodles to play the role of a policeman, I will not hesitate to watch it. 】

[Indeed, this drama is obviously in a realistic style. Most of the male actors do not wear makeup, or they use makeup to match the image of ordinary people as much as possible. 】

[Nowadays, some viewers, after watching too many movies and TV series with heavy makeup and filters, really think that they look like real people? The aesthetics under the filter are getting more and more deformed. 】

[There is a saying that Fang Xing can lose weight to the point of losing his appearance for filming. With this kind of acting attitude, no wonder he is successful. 】

[Can we add more to this drama? Who can watch two episodes a day? 】

【Not enough +1】

【Not enough +2】

[Isn’t this drama broadcast on Jiangnan TV? I waited all night last night, why didn’t I see it? The show is "Operation Team Behind Enemy Lines". 】

[Who told you that this drama is broadcast on Jiangnan TV? 】

[Fang Xing mentioned on the show that he even sang on "The Sound of Philharmonic", with the cold icy rain... This song was too over the top. 】

[This drama will premiere on CCTV, and Jiangnan TV will follow suit. Just wait. 】

【Fuck! If so, what else is there to see? Finished watching the webcast. 】

Among the many topics discussing the plot and characters, there are also some fans who are hostile to the film.

[Before broadcasting, blow it to the sky. I thought the ratings were very impressive, but it turned out that the ratings were only 1.27%, which was still the ratings of CCTV. It was a shame for CCTV. 】

The ratings at the launch were 1.27%, which is not bad among CCTV TV drama channels, but it is not popular either.

For fans of competitors, if "Hurricane" fails to become a hit, it means losing.

[As for "Horse", which has broken ratings, "Operation Black Wind" is broadcast at the same time, and it can be easily handled. I really want to watch He Yu’s new movie soon, why won’t it be released until June? 】

【That's right. That group of fans named Fang are still there, saying that "Black Wind" was postponed to June because they were afraid of colliding with "Cyclonus". With the ratings of 1.27% of "Kuronics", is it worthy of "Dark Wind" to avoid it? 】

[I just asked in the fan group that "Black Wind" is scheduled to be released in June because the post-production has not been completed yet. The quality of the drama will be higher if more time is spent on post-production. Let’s not rush, let’s look at the jokes in “Hurricane” first. 】

[This drama is indeed a joke. I have watched half of the episode, and I can only say one word: the plot is boring, a bunch of losers are having a meeting there, it’s not interesting at all. I bet the ratings of this show are at their peak in the first episode and will only get lower and lower thereafter. 】

Starting on Friday, a large number of fans online began to ridicule the opening ratings of "Horse".

Moreover, many fans of "Operation Black Wind" found the plot of the first episode of "Hurry" boring and could not watch it.

…

Amid the controversy, by Friday night, "Rush" aired its third and fourth episodes.

In the plot of the third episode, "An Xin", played by Fang Xing, enters the detention center as an undercover agent and comes into contact with the crazy donkey detained in the detention center.

After being released from the detention center, Crazy Donkey took "An Xin" to Bai Jinhan KTV, and the two became brothers.

At this time, the heroine "Meng Yu" played by Lin Yingxue appeared.

"Meng Yu" had a quarrel with Crazy Donkey's men, and "Meng Yu" was about to suffer.

At this time, "An Xin" appeared to help her out, and said that "Meng Yu" was his girlfriend.

Later, through the dialogue between "An Xin" and "Meng Yu", it was explained that the two were childhood sweethearts who grew up together and had a good relationship.

Moreover, "Meng Yu" is also the daughter of deputy director "Meng Dehai".

This plot is a bit like a hero saving a beauty.

However, the interactions between "An Xin" and "Meng Yu" are mainly slapstick and relatively joyful.

Let the serious anti-crime plot have a little breathing space.

Subsequently, the plot continued to advance. "Gao Qisheng", the younger brother of "Gao Qiqiang", returned to Jinghai from college and wanted to start a PHS business, but he had no capital.

Due to the need to open a PHS store, "Gao Qisheng" borrowed money from brothers Tang Xiaolong and Tang Xiaohu.

The Tang Xiaolong brothers introduced a job to "Gao Qiqiang" and asked him to teach a person a lesson.

And this person is the son of Xu Jiang, the boss of Bai Jinhan.

At this point in the plot, the first major turning point of the show appears.

"Gao Qiqiang" took the job and wanted to teach Xu Jiang's son a lesson.

As a result, Xu Jiang's son used a high-voltage electric current to electrocute fish and died in the fish pond due to electric shock.

"Gao Qiqiang" didn't want to kill anyone, but he was involved in this whirlpool, and the person who died was the son of the black boss.

When the crisis came, in order to protect his younger brothers and sisters, and to save his life, "Gao Qiqiang" had to start to change under the impetus of the situation.

…

The plot of the third and fourth episodes only showed the death of Xu Jiang's son in the fish pond, and then it ended abruptly.

After the two episodes were broadcast, the audience suddenly realized that there was no more!

On Weibo and other online platforms, the barrages on video platforms are all complaints from viewers:

【Is this gone? 】

【what's the situation? Whoever cut it, cut it off here! 】

[Can anyone tell me which website I can sign up for and watch four episodes in advance? 】

[Want to watch it in advance? I have all the VIPs on the network, and I do have the trailer, but not one more episode. 】

[This drama is so disgusting. Every time I watch it, I feel so sad that I want to die. 】

[Video websites should be updated quickly. Is it okay if I add money to open a platinum VIP? 】

[I just finished watching TV and immediately ran up to watch the barrage. Seeing everyone scolding me, I felt relieved. 】

…

Among the many complaints that two episodes a day are too slow, some viewers are also discussing the plot.

[Isn’t anyone discussing the plot? Is this electric fish guy dead? 】

[Should he be dead? The behavior of electric fish is worthy of death. 】

[The behavior of electric fish is indeed quite bad. Of course, the crime should not lead to death. However, just talking about electric fish is an act of eradication of fish ponds. From fry to insects, all aquatic organisms are exterminated. This has long been banned. 】

[No, this guy only appeared for a few seconds and died like this? Will Gao Qiqiang rescue him in the next episode, and then become the benefactor of the black boss, and then become bigger and stronger step by step? Looking at the character introduction of this drama, Gao Qiqiang seems to be following this route. 】

【Fuck! This guess seems to be possible. 】

[It’s impossible. Although there is no footage showing that he was electrocuted, this kind of electric fish is very scary. It has several thousand volts. In the footage, he shook a few times in the water. It is basically necessary to rescue him. 】

[Didn’t anyone see it? When this man was electrocuted, the fish seller forced him to pee. Could it be that he just peed on the wires, causing a short circuit and leakage? 】

【Fuck! , when you said that, I suddenly felt that it was very possible. Brother Qiang fucked people to death as soon as he soaked in urine? If the plot is really like this...it would be awesome! 】

[Is there another possibility? Brother Qiang deliberately urinated on the electric fish machine and turned black directly. 】

[It may not be intentional. Judging from the first episode, Gao Qiqiang's initial character should be a kind-hearted citizen who is also oppressed by the Dragon and Tiger brothers. It is impossible to darken so quickly. There should be a process of transformation so that the character can be full. 】

[Anyway, if the fish seller forced someone to urinate and electrocuted the person to death, the plot would be fun. 】

After the fourth episode was aired, netizens became more enthusiastic about discussing the plot.

That night.

The topic of a fish seller electrocuting a fish by soaking it in his urine was also a hot search topic.

Some netizens joked that the fish seller, who did not deal with the electric fish seller, accidentally misfired and killed someone.

All the fun people are playing tricks.

However, most viewers still felt that Gao Qiqiang did not electrocute people intentionally.

With this question in mind, the audience began to look forward to the fifth episode.

…

The next day is Saturday.

Ratings data from the previous day are compiled.

The ratings of "Rush" were stable, with an average rating of 1.32% for the two episodes.

There is a slight increase, but not much, which is considered a normal fluctuation range.

When these ratings came out, fans of "Operation Black Wind" became even more arrogant:

[As expected, the ratings did not increase at all. That was basically it. The show was doomed. 】

[The ratings for CCTV’s first broadcast were only around 1.00, and you were so arrogant at the beginning. Where did you get the face? 】

[You will know when "Operation Black Wind" starts airing. If "Cyclone" encounters "Operation Black Wind", it will die no matter how hard it happens. 】

…

at the same time.

"Hurry Up" has already started broadcasting and is available on major video platforms.

Therefore, interstitial advertising is also under active negotiation.

The commercials for the first season of "Rush," the first 13 episodes, were sold before it even aired.

However, the advertising spots for episodes 14 to 39 are still reserved and have not been sold yet.

This is Ark Culture's normal advertising investment process. Usually, the first half of the commercials are sold first, and the second half of the commercials are discussed after the TV series starts airing.

In this way, as long as the drama becomes popular, the price of commercials will double.

Of course, there are risks in doing this. If the show fails and the ratings and online broadcasts are not good, then the commercials may not be sold, or the price may plummet.

Therefore, with this strategy, risks and rewards coexist.

"Rush" has aired four episodes.

Ark Culture, major video platforms, and advertisers are all negotiating for spot ads.

However, so far, the price of the interstitial ads has not been agreed upon.

Because the brands that buy advertising don’t understand TV dramas themselves, so they only look at the data.

The ratings of the first four episodes of "Rush" are not bad, but they are not a big hit either.

The highest ratings are 1.32%. In the eyes of advertisers, the price of an advertisement for a TV series of this level is usually 1.5 million.

The advertising industry has developed to this point and has become very mature.

There is a market standard for what level of ratings and advertising price.

Therefore, given the current ratings performance of "Horse", the price advertisers can accept is 1.5 million per episode.

However, Ark Culture had relatively high expectations for "Hurry Up" and its psychologically expected price was higher than the advertiser's asking price, so the price was not negotiated.

…

After "Rush" aired, promotional activity began to slowly taper off.

Fang Xing finally had time to rest for a few days, and went on dates with Lu Xiang'er to eat, go shopping, and watch movies.

Then, watch "Rush" together in the evening.

"You've really lost a lot of weight. No, I decided to feed you back. The scene on TV is really too uncomfortable." Lu Xiang'er looked at "Fang Xing" in the TV series, and then at "Fang Xing" in front of her. Fang Xing", a little distressed.

"You still have the ability to fatten me up? Just the dark dishes you cook?" Fang Xing began to tease her.

Lu Xiang'er suddenly became angry, put her hands on her hips and hummed: "What do you mean? Are you laughing at my cooking skills?"

Fang Xing suppressed his laughter and said, "No, you have to have this thing to be laughed at. If you don't have any, why should I laugh at you?"

"Just wait, I will cook in person tomorrow." Lu Xiang'er made a decision immediately.

The two quarreled for a while.

Lu Xiang'er remembered something serious: "By the way, what's the current price of the commercials in "Kurst"? I want to ask, do you want to buy it now?"

Fang Xing thought for a moment and replied: "I heard people from the company's marketing department say in the group that the advertiser seems to have offered 1.5 million episodes, but the price is lower than expected."

Lu Xiang'er then asked: "How much does your company plan to ask for?"

Fang Xing replied casually: "What I wanted in the previous meeting was to talk slowly based on the data from the TV series and not to sell in a hurry. However, the base price is 3 million."

When Lu Xiang'er heard the price, he immediately stared: "It costs 3 million. No wonder we couldn't agree on the price, it's twice as much."

"It's true that we can't agree on the price at the moment. Let's just wait. Anyway, there's still about a week left, so don't be in a hurry." Fang Xing's mentality was very calm.

Lu Xiang'er thought for a moment and asked, "Then if we buy commercials for 3 million yuan now, can we negotiate?"

"This is okay. It's higher than the market price and meets the company's expectations. It can be sold." Fang Xing nodded and replied.

Lu Xiang'er pouted and asked, "Then do you think the Sichuan brand should buy commercials?"

Fang Xing thought for a moment and didn't answer directly. Instead, he asked, "What do you think?"

"I don't know. Every advertisement for your drama is so expensive." Lu Xiang'er began to use the honey trap, hugging Fang Xing's arm and started acting coquettishly.

Fang Xing pointed at the TV and asked, "Do you think it looks good?"

Lu Xiang'er sat up straight and nodded seriously: "It looks good. I really want to watch the next episode now, but I don't dare to watch the preview for fear of being spoiled. It's very uncomfortable."

Fang Xing looked at her with a smile: "Then you should already have the answer in your heart."

Lu Xiang'er nodded slowly and said, "I understand, then I'll tell dad and let him talk about advertising, otherwise it will be too late."

She is very aware of Ark Culture's dramas. The ratings of "Crazy" haven't started to explode yet. Now, we can still talk about 3 million for commercial breaks. If we wait until the ratings start to explode, it won't be 3 million.
