With the end of the summer season, all 36 episodes of "Joy of Life 2" were broadcast before students returned to school.
Although various good dramas were released one after another in the second half of this summer season, the data and popularity of "Joy of Life 2" are still far ahead.
The average viewership rating of CCTV-8 during the broadcast period was 2.38, and the highest viewership rating even reached 3.24, setting a record for CCTV's TV drama broadcast this year.
The highest popularity on the Tencent Video site exceeded 34,000, and the cumulative number of feature film views exceeded 3 billion in 18 days. The market share of effective feature film views reached 17.9% on the first day of its launch, topping the daily list.
Since then, its market share has always ranked first. By the day of the finale, its market share had exceeded half, 42.7% more than the second place.
During the broadcast of "Joy of Life 2", seven or eight entries related to the TV series appeared on the hot search list almost every day, and the topic discussion volume of #【Joy of Life 2】Fan Xian# reached 1.26 billion, which was extremely popular.
After the last episode of CCTV was broadcast, Fan Xian went to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate the three major districts. Grandmaster Ye Liuyun made a handsome appearance and cut down the building with one sword. Not only did he not kill Fan Xian, but he helped him recover his true energy. So far, "Joy of Life 2" has ended here.
After the second season was aired, the audience, still unsatisfied, took to the Internet to discuss their various opinions on the plot and characters, and urged the "Joy of Life" crew to start filming the third season as soon as possible.
["Joy of Life 2" was promoted so enthusiastically in the early stages that I had been looking forward to it for more than a year, but to be honest, I was a little disappointed when it first aired. I felt that it was not as exciting as the first one.
However, as the plot unfolded, I became more and more addicted, and it felt like it was getting better and better as time went on! 】
[Most of the highlights of the first part are Fan Xian showing off, such as killing Cheng Jushu in the street, drinking and writing hundreds of poems at a night banquet, forcing Zhuang Mohan to vomit blood, etc. It is fun, but it is a bit thin and superficial.
In the second TV series, the things that the TV series wants to explore are more obviously in-depth. Under the influence of modern people's thinking and some important supporting characters, Fan Xian really begins to speak up for the people. Even in the face of many obstacles, he is fearless and sticks to his beliefs and original intentions.
Each story is really interesting, and I am really looking forward to the third part! 】
[Many supporting characters in the second part left a deep impression on me, including the old vegetable seller Jintou in the Baoyue Tower incident; Deng Ziyue who said, "There is so much injustice in the world, and blood will lead to thunder"; and Lai Yushi who lived an honest life and gave everything for the country but was finally sentenced to death.
By the second part, Joy of Life has completely moved beyond the realm of a simple, enjoyable drama. I'm really looking forward to how Master Fan will transform the world!
My favorite scene is the one where Fan Xian presides over the Spring Examination. The words Yang Wanli said to Fan Xian still make me want to cry when I think about them.
"There are always people in this world who get their heads broken and bleed. If I were to pass the imperial examination, wouldn't the blood splatter higher, wouldn't the noise be louder, wouldn't more people hear it?"
I cried my heart out! I was reminded of Tan Sitong's words: "Every reform in every country has been achieved through bloodshed. In China, there has been no bloodshed for reform. This is why the country is not prosperous. If there is, please start with Sitong!"
[I really like the second part. As the plot develops, the settings of all the characters become more and more complete.
Emperor Qing's identity as the Grandmaster is revealed, the eldest princess becomes more and more beautiful as she becomes crazier and crazier, and even Lin Wan'er, who was criticized by everyone as a tool in the first part, has her own voice and the soul of the character.
Jing Tian was so beautiful in the wedding scene, and Lin Wan'er is definitely another representative role of hers after "Si Teng"!
[I just finished watching the finale, and the only feeling I have is that I still feel unsatisfied. Could the producers please film the third part as soon as possible? Please!
If all else fails, we can learn from American dramas and film and broadcast them simultaneously. I just want to see the story after Fan Xian goes south of the Yangtze River as soon as possible!
"[Joy of Life 2] has a really good reputation, but it's a bit of a shame."
In the hotel room, Wang Churan, wearing black sexy pajamas, was surfing the Internet with a tablet computer and exclaimed when he saw netizens' comments about "Joy of Life 2".
"What a pity?"
Gu Wei sat next to her with his work laptop in front of him, tapping on the keyboard from time to time as he asked casually.
“It’s a shame I can’t be part of the third film.
According to the timeline of the original novel, the finale of the third part is the true climax of the story of [Joy of Life]!"
Wang Churan plays "Sang Wen" in the second part, which is a minor character in the side story of "Joy of Life" and will obviously not appear in future plots.
Gu Wei remained silent, his attention completely focused on the computer in front of him.
Wang Churan put down the tablet and walked in front of Gu Wei.
"When will the third part start filming?"
At this time, Gu Wei had finished typing and finally hit the enter key, as if sending something, and turned to look at the pretty face close to him.
"You already said you couldn't participate in the third part, why are you still so concerned?"
“Even though I can’t act in the show, I’m still a fan of Joy of Life.
In order to catch up on the second part, I bought a Tencent Video membership and also paid for advanced on-demand streaming."
Wang Churan curled his lips and said, "Everything about our drama is good, except that there are too many advertisements. And Tengxun is obsessed with money, trying every possible way to get money out of the audience's pockets."
Gu Wei smiled and said, "That's normal, this is Penguin's usual style.
I have worked with them for many years and also endorsed the game "Honor of Kings", so I know penguins very well.
In Penguin's closed ecological loop, everything is easy as long as you pay money.
Of course, they are also very generous when it comes to spending money abroad."
Wang Churan nodded and continued to ask, "Can [Joy of Life 3] start filming in the second half of the year?"
"How is that possible? The script for the third part hasn't been completed yet, and I don't have any schedule this year.
If we want to officially start filming, the earliest we can do so is the second half of next year or the year after."
Wang Churan frowned slightly. "Is that so? Doesn't that mean we won't be able to see it until 23 or even 24 years?"
"Yes, I talked about this before when I was on a variety show."
Wang Churan nodded slightly, then moved closer to Gu Wei and hugged his arms with both hands.
"Brother Wei, I heard that the crew of "Dream of Hualu" has finished filming."
“Well, it was finished two days ago.
Liu Yifei sent me a message saying she was leaving, and I even invited her and Liu Yan and a few others to have dinner together."
Speaking of this, Gu Wei looked at Wang Churan strangely.
"Do you care about Liu Yifei? Why didn't you go to dinner with me a while ago?"
"No, Liu Yifei and I don't know each other either. I mentioned it to Xiaotian when I was chatting with him these two days." Wang Churan quickly waved his hand to deny it, and then asked tentatively.
"I heard from Xiaotian that you, Brother Wei, are going to collaborate with Liu Yifei on a new drama again?"
"The company is still discussing it. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be."
"If we count from [Embroidered Spring Blade], this should be your fourth collaboration.
Brother Wei, you and Liu Yifei have a really good relationship."
Wang Churan's tone was inexplicable. She was a little suspicious whether the reason she could get close to Gu Wei was because her temperament was somewhat similar to Liu Yifei's. After all, she was known as "Little Liu Yifei".
Gu Wei smiled and patted her head: "It's certain that we have a good relationship. Xixi is my first leading actress since I entered the industry, and also the first actress I worked with.
We have known each other for ten years and have worked together many times. We are very good friends.
Chu Ran, you were born in 1999, right?
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Gu Wei thought for a moment and said, "I filmed my first movie, Blade of the Assassin, in 2012. So you were only in sixth grade then?"
"No, I was in the first grade at that time, not as young as you said.
However, I have been watching your dramas since I entered puberty. I loved dramas like "Swords of Legends", "My Sweetheart", and "Love O2O" so much back then.
At that time, there was a poster of "Bai Li Tu Su" in the room!" Wang Churan retorted.
Gu Wei was surprised: "I didn't expect Chu Ran was my fan back then?"
"Of course, I told you that when we first met."
"I thought you were just being polite."
Wang Churan was about to say something when Gu Wei's cell phone rang.
He picked it up and took a look at it, then gave a look to Wang Churan beside him and picked it up.
"Mr. Gu, I'm sorry to call you so late. I hope I didn't disturb your rest." Yang Liwen's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"It's okay~"
"I just read the documents in my mailbox. When I get to work tomorrow, I will instruct the screenwriter department to start writing [Extreme Rescue] according to the outline.
There are two more things I need to report to you."
"you say."
Gu Wei originally thought that Yang Liwen called because of the script outline of "Extreme Rescue" he had just sent her, but he didn't expect that she had other things to do.
"These past few days, our company has been negotiating with Huace. Kanxinqing Studio is very welcoming to you, Boss, joining us. They have also made significant concessions on the investment share for Go Where the Wind Is.
After discussion, we finally decided on a 40:60 split in terms of investment, with Kanxinqing Studio, as the main producer, taking 60%."
"Huace is so generous?" Gu Wei was a little surprised.
He usually asks for a 30% share of the external dramas he takes, but he didn't expect Huace to give him an extra 10%.
Yang Liwen smiled and said, “Boss, it’s not that Huace is generous.
After receiving your message, the company started researching the drama "Where the Wind Is".
We found that since this is a modern drama, we could add a lot of product placement without affecting the filming effect.
Once you, boss, join, advertisers will surely flock in, and the cost of embedded advertising will most likely cover the production cost of the TV series.
The production cost is zero, and with you and Ms. Liu Yifei joining us, [You Feng] is bound to be a big hit.
Huace obviously understands this logic, which is why they made such a big concession."
Gu Wei nodded slightly. Of course he had no objection to earning a little more.
"Okay, you can discuss the details with them. However, regarding the schedule, it will be next year at the earliest."
When Gu Wei answered the phone, Wang Churan was right next to him. The room was relatively quiet, so she could probably hear something.
Hearing Gu Wei talking about the TV series he collaborated with Liu Yifei, Wang Churan curled his lips, looked at Gu Wei who was on the phone, his eyes turned, and he slowly leaned down.
"What else?
hiss."
"Boss, what's wrong with you?"
“Uh, it’s okay, there are mosquitoes here in Hengdian at night.
What was the other thing you just mentioned?"
Yang Liwen on the other end of the phone didn't suspect anything and continued talking.
"There's another thing about the ["Rising Moon in the Bay Area" 2021 Greater Bay Area Mid-Autumn Festival Film and Music Gala] that you're going to attend, boss.
As far as I know, the authorities attach great importance to this gala and have confirmed that many celebrities from across the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong will participate."
"Is there any problem with that? I've already sent you the demo of the song I'm going to sing. I can just go over there and rehearse it in advance."
Gu Wei held the phone in one hand and touched Wang Churan's black hair with the other, his tone of voice not changing at all.
"Yes, the organizers are very satisfied with your new song, but they think it's more suitable for a male-female duet. They suggest you choose a female singer from the Greater Bay Area to sing with you, which would also have a better meaning."
"Do you have any candidates over there?" Gu Wei had no objection to this suggestion, because the original version of the new song he wrote was a duet of a man and a woman.
"G.E. Deng, Miriam Yeung, Charlene Choi, Joey Yung, and Nana Ouyang are all good options."
"What the hell is Ouyang Nana? Is she also a singer?" Gu Wei complained.
"Take Deng Ziqi for example, I've met her before on a variety show, so I kind of know her.
She can sing well too.”
“Okay, boss.
I will confirm this with the organizers later."
After finishing the business, Yang Liwen reported to Gu Wei some company matters, especially the recent development of each artist.
However, she seemed to sense that her boss was a little absent-minded, and after saying a few words, she sensibly ended the call.
"How is it? Do you like it?" Wang Churan looked up with a smile when he saw Gu Wei hung up the phone.
"Don't do this again in the future"
Wang Churan could tell that Gu Wei was not being sincere, and smiled secretly in his heart, pursing his lips and nodding obediently.
She enjoyed spending time with Gu Wei and also liked to please him in her own way.
Although it looks a bit like a dog licker, she really got it.
When they were chatting just now, they also said that Gu Wei was her favorite idol since childhood. Few people would refuse the opportunity to maintain a close relationship with their idol.
Besides, Gu Wei is the best among men in terms of appearance and figure. Wang Churan never feels that she is at a disadvantage when she is with him. Instead, she feels that she has gained a great advantage.
'The only pity is that I can't become Wei Ge's official girlfriend.
It seems like I'm a bit greedy, but it's nice to be able to maintain this kind of relationship.
Just like the movie "Wind Chaser" that we are filming now, even Song Qian, the top sister in the company, would envy these top resources.
And with this relationship with Brother Wei, the company will allocate more resources to me, and I will have the confidence to say no to many things I don't want to do.
"What are you thinking about?" Gu Wei saw Wang Churan's dazed look and waved his hand in front of her.
"Ah? It's nothing. I was thinking about the Greater Bay Area Music Gala you just mentioned on the phone.
I've also heard about this party, but it's a pity that I didn't receive an invitation, otherwise I could have tried to sing a duet with you, Brother Wei." Wang Churan reacted quickly.
"Do you sing well?" Gu Wei asked curiously. He had never heard Wang Churan sing.
"I feel like I sang pretty well, much better than Meng Ziyi!"
Gu Wei said with some amusement: "Hearing you compare this person, I don't have any expectations for your singing ability."
Wang Churan was not convinced: "I sing really well, if you don't believe me, I will sing it for you now"
Gu Wei raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay, but we have to change places."
Wang Churan was still confused, and Gu Wei picked her up and walked towards the bedroom.
The other party's actions had already aroused his anger, so he couldn't let it end like this. (End of this chapter)
