Chapter 263
"Ling Suisui's new show is not doing well, is this the end of the domestic entertainment legend?"
After Ling Sui carefully studied the skit page, she realized that she had misunderstood the antenna just now.
The price of each episode of the short drama is indeed one dollar, but it can also be unlocked through shining points. 1 shining point can unlock 1 episode. The method of obtaining it comes from the interactive tasks of the variety show, such as daily check-in, posting barrages in the show, sharing with friends, etc.
Ling Suisui calculated that if he completed the daily interactive tasks, he could get a maximum of 20 shiny points, and it would only take five days to unlock them all.
The update frequency of the short series and the feature film is the same, with one episode updated per week from each perspective. This unit consists of three episodes.
Wow, this is another trick of the platform. Under the influence of the house-demolishing effect, the audience had already been cursing them in their hearts for their ugly eating habits, but then they suddenly realized that there was actually a way that didn't cost any money.
Spending less money means saving money, and saving money means making money, so you must complete tasks to unlock a few episodes. It would be a waste not to take advantage of the platform.
Ling Suisui clicked to sign in and unlocked the selected episode with 1 shiny value.
She glanced at the progress bar below and saw that it was less than two minutes long. The plot is also very simple. Girl A is an ordinary high school student who has a crush on a boy in the next class. She didn't dare to express her feelings out loud and could only write them down in her diary. One day, the boy confessed his love to her.
When she was about to agree, another girl B who appeared in this episode and walked side by side with the boy suddenly rushed out and said, "No, I don't agree with you two being together!"
This episode ends here. At the end, a recommendation for a short play featuring girl B pops up. It really is a chain of events.
Ling Suisui clicked on the new episode again. She was really curious about this "world view connection".
In the new episode, this girl B is good friends with the boy. She saw the boy and girl C walking very close and mistakenly thought that they were dating, so she rushed out when the boy confessed to girl A.
In the video featuring girl C, she and the boy are relatives, and she is of a very high generation, being the boy's great aunt, so the boy never reveals their relationship to others. Another girl, D, also misunderstood her relationship with the boy, and she suspected that she liked the boy;
However, after opening the video of girl D, you will find that she cares about girl C and does not want C to fall in love early and affect her studies. Her deskmate, E, is a poor student and sometimes asks her the same question over and over again...
Ling Sui watched several episodes in a row and roughly understood the routine of this linkage.
There is a hook at the end of each skit, which will be reversed in the video of another protagonist. The so-called worldview linkage is like this, with layers upon layers. At present, the chain seems to be relatively weak, perhaps because there are too many people. When elimination occurs later, there will probably be more cross-chains between the protagonists.
If Ling Sui were to give his evaluation, it would probably be that it’s a good way to kill time?
As for analyzing the acting skills of these actors... Sorry, she can't see it.
Every character and every plot in the skit is clearly labeled, so even if the actors recite their lines expressionlessly, it will not have much impact on the resulting effect.
Moreover, no matter how short the short series is, it still has 100 episodes, and it takes time to prepare and shoot.
The actors in the show not only have to record the main variety show, but also record voice-over commercials. Even though the antenna has squeezed their time management to the extreme, there are obvious signs of rushing. The production level is too rough, could it be outsourced to interns?
However, this is based on Ling Sui's standards for film and television dramas. If you are an ordinary audience, you won’t care about so many details.
Moreover, from a business perspective, "killing time" is not a derogatory evaluation. To put it bluntly, even though some idol drama projects are hyped up, that's just the effect they have on the audience.
Ling Suisui told people around him a long time ago that the rise of short dramas would have a great impact on idol dramas and cool dramas under the category of long dramas.
In the past few years, only long drama projects of B level and below were cut. However, after "She's the One" attracted traffic to short dramas on long video platforms, the turmoil may spread rapidly to A level and even S level projects.
As short dramas take up audiences' entertainment time, it is an inevitable trend that long dramas can only move towards high-quality productions. However, this process may happen faster than Ling Sui imagined.
"She Shine" stacked up the buffs of acting competition and talent show, raised the banner of "every actor is a heroine", and brought very novel joint short dramas to the domestic entertainment industry, which became the talk of the town in a short time.
Not to mention the variety shows being broadcasted at the same time, even the TV dramas and movies being aired have been affected. After all, "She's the One" has a hundred episodes of short dramas, and these need to be unlocked by completing tasks. When the audience's attention is harvested away, the overall market of the long drama will naturally be slightly cold.
Zhuo Siyu said that being a fan of this show is really tiring as they have to do interactive tasks and buy yogurt. And although the playing of the skits does not count towards the votes that influence the elimination results, the display catalog is ranked according to the number of unlocks.
In the domestic entertainment industry, as long as there are rankings, it means competition. You say you are the most popular, but your skit is ranked below others. Are you ashamed?
Therefore, the audience can watch it for free by completing tasks, but fans have to spend money to watch it.
Some fans criticized the program for being greedy, so the program responded by considering arranging the programs in random order. However, fans who had spent money before and put their own expenses in the front were not happy about it.
Why? Who chases stars without spending money? If you don't like it, just don't watch it and let the contestant withdraw from the competition.
The fans started to quarrel, the bystanders were watching the fun, and the production team quietly disappeared.
Mo Ziqing's plan is very clear. If the conflict cannot be resolved, then she will divert it and stir up some heat.
For Zhuo Siyu, being a fan of these actors is really hard. She couldn't quite understand. Isn't chasing stars for the sake of happiness? Who would seek to make themselves suffer?
Well, there are actually a lot of people who can do this.
This kind of expenditure is called "sunk cost" in economics. If we both like a star, which one is more impressive and unforgettable: casually praising her acting skills or spending time and money on her?
This is basically the route that popular stars take to build their fan base. Including Ling Sui, it was because after the huge success of "Game Is Online", the companies that were besieging her launched a flood of negative press releases. The more her fans were abused, the higher their fighting spirit became, and that's how she became the top star.
For those artists with real negative material, fans can brainwash themselves and think it’s no big deal, saying that it’s the enemies’ fault. But for artists like Ling Suisui who have been thoroughly exposed and can only be attacked by spreading rumors and exaggerating the facts, of course, fans will feel distressed and wronged, because after all, they are really right!
This is the current situation with the fan circle of "She's the One". The more controversial the program is, the deeper the fans' feelings are. Star-chasers who love self-sacrifice all their lives will always be moved by the fantasy of "I am the only one left in the show".
From a certain perspective, Mo Ziqing can be said to practice what he preaches.
She said that if she wanted to organize a talent show, she would follow the talent show routine seriously. If there was any factor of real strength, the program's ability to make money would not be so strong.
The artists coming out of this show will probably have a great impact on the pattern of 00 and 05 flowers. In the past, there was at least a threshold for idols to become actors, but now the transition is seamless through talent shows.
Among the actors from Ling Suisui's own company alone, there is one project that was under discussion but no follow-up has been made. The other party found all kinds of reasons as excuses, but Tong Xiaoman found out after a little inquiry that they had already spotted several people from "She Shine" and were just waiting for their show recording to finish.
Although it is common for collaborations to fail, Tian Tian was still hit hard. She also watched the skit on the show, and it was after watching it that she felt even worse.
"That's it. You can replace me with this level of skill?" Tian Tian was so angry at the company, "Just pick up a passerby on the street. As long as he's not nervous around the camera, he can shoot this episode completely!"
She was not brooding over the project, but she found it difficult to accept that she was eliminated. This was in serious contradiction to what she had felt and learned from Ling Suisui since she signed with Harvest Media.
Tian Tian's situation is not an isolated case. Many companies also have complaints about "She's the One".
But their way to break the impasse is to hold more actor auditions. As far as Ling Sui knows, Aoqi and Yumi are both actively preparing similar programs. If Antenna can take advantage of this loophole, why can't they do the same? And we have to follow the trend faster and get a taste of this hot meal before the talent show is banned.
Amid the internet craze sparked by actor auditions, the premiere of Fruit TV's new variety show "Hero, Please Take the Challenge" was not as popular as expected.
This was actually a result expected by the platform, and senior management and sponsors did not show much disappointment. After all, compared with the effects of ordinary variety shows, this is not a bad show. If it happens to other artists, fans can just blow their trumpets and effectively show their faces.
However, the public’s expectations for Ling Sui are very high. In the past, she was portrayed in public opinion as the "all-powerful god of domestic entertainment." Even if her performance in variety shows was slightly unsatisfactory, all kinds of press releases pulling her down and comparing her would emerge crazily.
To be honest, there is nothing to compare between the two programs of different types, but the press releases are all about "Ling Suisui once rejected the shining her, and the emperor also has his mistakes", "He used to ignore her, but now he is out of reach, Ling Suisui was slapped in the face by the newcomer", "Ling Suisui's new program is not doing well, is her domestic entertainment legend coming to an end?"...
Ling Sui is sometimes speechless when she checks her phone. If you don’t know this, you might think that she has some big production that failed miserably. It turns out that it’s just a new show that has just been aired, ranking second on the variety show popularity list.
If "She's the One" is really that popular, why not compare it vertically with the previous talent shows when they were the most popular? Wherever Mo Ziqing goes, press releases that frame and vilify her are sent out. Is it necessary?
The most outrageous thing is that this program is still promoting an actress named Lin Jiajia. Ling Suisui has seen many short videos saying that Lin Jiajia looks like her. There is also a so-called melon owner who broke the news that Lin Jiajia was selected by Mo Ziqing after reading tens of thousands of resumes and going through several rounds of interviews because she was the actor who most resembled Ling Suisui.
At present, the role played by Lin Jiajia ranks first in the popularity ranking of "She Shine". If we use the language of a talent show, she is the C position of the show.
There hasn’t been a talent show for a few years, but fans of the show are always good at spending money to vote. The popularity level of Lin Jiajia’s super topic quickly reached Diamond 3 - the only female celebrity in the domestic entertainment industry whose super topic can maintain this level for a long time is Ling Sui.
Zhang Wen felt a headache. As expected, after opening Weibo, there were so many bundled press releases that she couldn't even count them all.
