The completion of "Where the Wind Is" is definitely great news for other TV series in the same time slot.
Especially the already very popular [Kuang Biao], which received a large amount of traffic after the finale of [You Feng].
The TV station's ratings rose from 2.5 to 3.05, with an audience share of 12.035%. The popularity of the exclusive broadcasting platform iQiyi rose to 11,800.
Various online marketing and topics also shifted from discussions about "There is Wind" to "Storm".
There are memorable lines such as "Tell Lao Mo, I want to eat fish", "The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish", "What's your level? Use the same as mine".
Some netizens even started to support the pairing of "An Xin" and "Gao Qiqiang", the protagonists and antagonists.
More and more people are paying attention to and discussing the show, and the popularity of the show is rising steadily.
Zhang Songwen became an instant hit with the role of "Gao Qiqiang", and other supporting actors in the drama also attracted a lot of fans.
In comparison, the benefits gained by "The Three-Body Problem" are much smaller.
Speaking of which, it’s really a pity about “The Three-Body Problem”.
It is obviously a film and television adaptation of a super IP, and both the actors' performances and the story narration are very good.
The Douban score of 8.7 after the broadcast also shows that this is a high-quality drama.
Logically speaking, this drama has all the conditions to become a big hit.
But after it went online, it happened to encounter two more popular TV series.
The hit drama of the year [Where the Wind Is] which was aired earlier and [Storm] which was launched at the same time.
Although the genres are different, the quality of these two dramas is no worse than "The Three-Body Problem". "The Storm" has a Douban score of 8.5, and "Where the Wind Is" has a Douban score of 8.9.
The popularity and various broadcast data even surpassed "The Three-Body Problem".
It was clearly a high-quality drama, but because it was released at the wrong time, it ended up with unsatisfactory broadcast results and popularity.
".Mr. Zhang's performance in [The Storm] was really good. He's been so popular recently!"
Liu Shishi's scenes had not been finished yet, and Ni Ni spent most of her time with her while she was on the set. Naturally, Meng Ziyi got more opportunities to spend time with Gu Wei.
"Even before he became famous, Zhang Songwen opened an acting training class in Hengdian. If he can teach others how to act, he must have some good acting skills himself."
Gu Wei sat next to Meng Ziyi, but his attention was on the computer in front of him. He looked at the email intently and replied casually.
Meng Ziyi was dressed coolly and leaned on Gu Wei like a beautiful snake.
"I know, from what I heard from people in the company, that Teacher Zhang first joined the company as an acting teacher.
I also consulted him when filming before, and I felt that some of the acting tips he mentioned were very useful."
At this time, Gu Wei had just finished reading the email, raised his head, and put one arm around Meng Ziyi's slender and soft waist from behind, with his palm resting on her white and tender belly.
"Yes, I remember it was when we were filming Love O2O in 2015. We were worried that Nazha's acting skills were not good enough so we found an acting teacher for her, and the person who came was Zhang Songwen.
I felt that he had good acting skills and good teaching skills, so I signed him.
At that time, Zhang Songwen had no fame at all. Although he graduated from a professional school, he was not much better than an ordinary person.
I thought that there was no shortage of roles in the company anyway, and although he couldn't play the leading role, there were plenty of supporting roles for him.
At the same time, he can also be of some help to other young actors in the company in terms of acting."
[Kuangbiao] made Zhang Songwen popular, but in fact, Zhang Songwen had already gained a certain degree of fame before that.
Since signing with "Wei Ming Tian Xia", as Gu Wei said, Zhang Songwen has played many supporting roles in various film and television dramas.
For example, "Cai Chenggong" in "In the Name of People", the pharmaceutical representative of Lenin in "Dying to Survive", Chen Chong's mayoral candidate husband in "Manslaughter", and the cult leader "Lin Luhe" in "Zhou Chu Eliminates the Three Evils".
With the support of the big tree of "Wei Ming Tian Xia", Zhang Songwen got plenty of opportunities and has long been recognized as a golden supporting actor in the industry.
It’s just because he always plays supporting roles that he is not very well-known to the public. The audience may feel that he looks familiar but cannot remember his name.
It was not until the hit of "Kuang Biao" that Zhang Songwen really started to eat at the table and became a household name.
"Are you on good terms with Zhou Yiwei?"
"Yes, Brother Yiwei was one of the regular guests at last year's [50km Taohuawu].
He's a bit of an introvert, but we have a good relationship."
Meng Ziyi nodded. She made many friends in the entertainment industry through the variety show "Taohuawu".
"Zhou Yiwei and Zhang Songwen are close friends, and have been friends for over 20 years."
Meng Ziyi was a little surprised: "Really? I know both of them, but I didn't know they were good friends."
Gu Wei smiled and said, "They were classmates in the vocational class of Beijing Film Academy, and they shared the upper and lower bunks in the same dormitory.
I met Zhou Yiwei in my first movie "The Blade of the Assassin" after my debut, and later I met Zhang Songwen and found out that they were good friends.
Our circle is actually very small, with only a few of us, so we can always find some connections."
Meng Ziyi nodded in agreement.
Gu Wei closed the notebook in front of him and said, "Chinese New Year is coming in two days. You won't have any scenes these days. Do you want to go home for the New Year?"
Meng Ziyi looked at Gu Wei and rolled her eyes. "No, Jilin Province is too far away. It's too troublesome to fly back and forth. I'll just stay on the set."
At this point, she suddenly had an idea: "The weather here in Hainan is good. I can talk to my parents and ask them to come over for the New Year."
"My mom likes you very much. If they come over, can you make time to meet them?"
Meng Ziyi hugged Gu Wei's arm and said coquettishly, with a pitiful expression and pleading eyes.
Gu Wei turned his head and looked at her: "Okay, I can treat uncle and aunt to a meal when I have time."
Meng Ziyi was surprised, and then Gu Wei added: "As your boss!"
Meng Ziyi's mouth drooped, thinking, "The boss is the boss, it's better to meet him than not to meet him~"
Time flies, and soon it is New Year's Eve of 2023.
There are many stars in this year's Spring Festival Gala, and the opening chorus is full of heavyweights, including Cheng Long, Qin Hailu, Su Youpeng, Yang Zi, Sha Yi, Wang Baoqiang, Zhao Liying and so on.
The first language program of the evening party was a crosstalk by Yue Yunpeng and Sun Yue.
What they said is really not funny. Every year they appear on the Spring Festival Gala and are criticized for not being funny.
The only difference this year was that a roast chicken was transformed while the crosstalk was being performed, which surprised the audience a bit.
This is Deng Chao's second time on the Spring Festival Gala this year, singing the song "Good Luck Comes" with Wang Erni.
Brother Chao was still running and jumping on the stage, very excited and turned the Spring Festival Gala into his personal concert.
The director of this year's Spring Festival Gala has learned his lesson. He knows that Deng Chao is unreliable, so as soon as he takes a running start on the stage, he immediately cuts to a wide-angle shot, for fear that he will run out of the camera.
Chen Teng and Ma Li's skits continued to perform steadily and were the funniest among the language programs in this year's Spring Festival Gala.
Huang Bo sang the song "Little Brother" solo, just like when he performed on the Spring Festival Gala in 2014, wearing a jumpsuit and singing while stepping on the treadmill.
This year was Zhao Liying's first time on the Spring Festival Gala, where she sang a solo of "Man Ting Fang: National Beauty", and she sang quite well.
She is not a singer, so the audience's expectations are not that high. However, her fans are very excited and praise their idol in various ways online.
Overall, this year's Spring Festival Gala was pretty good and there was nothing major to fault with it.
After the party, the hot searches on the Internet were all about the various programs.
Like #Demon Boy Deng Chao made me laugh to death#, #Yue Yunpeng turned into a roast chicken#, #Chen Teng took medicine#, #Zhao Liying was stunning at the Spring Festival Gala! #and so on.
However, it was somewhat surprising that Gu Wei, who did not participate in the Spring Festival Gala, also became a hot topic.
#After missing the Spring Festival Gala, when will Gu Wei release a new song? #
Because Gu Wei always sings new songs every time he attends a party, and he hasn't appeared at various parties for a long time recently, his fans are a little anxious.
The crew of "She Vanished".
We had half a day off on New Year’s Eve, and the crew organized a New Year’s Eve dinner in the evening.
The staff and actors had a meal together, ate dumplings and watched the Spring Festival Gala. It was lively and happy.
This is how the film and television industry works. Unlike other industries that work from nine to five with weekends off and statutory holidays, the crew has no holidays as long as they start filming, and there is no limit on day and night. Everything is for filming.
Hundreds of people gathered together, and as long as the filming was not completed, the funds were spent like water every day.
The crew members have been working in this business for years, so everyone knows what's going on and is used to it.
After New Year’s Eve, the crew started work as usual on the first day of the new year.
What surprised Gu Wei was that Meng Ziyi's parents actually came to Hainan to celebrate the New Year.
According to Meng Ziyi, it was cold in her hometown, so her parents took the opportunity to visit her and come here for vacation.
During the break in filming, Gu Wei took the time out as promised to have a meal with Meng's parents.
Of course, it was as the boss of the company that Meng Ziyi signed with.
Meng Ziyi's parents were very enthusiastic about Gu Wei.
Dad Meng is very grateful to Gu Wei for taking care of his daughter. He is also a businessman with some assets in the local area. He understands some of the inside stories and operating rules of the entertainment industry. He knows that without the support and support of the company, his daughter would not be able to get to where she is now.
Meng Mu was equally enthusiastic, even a little too enthusiastic.
She seemed to be a fan of Gu Wei. She asked for photos and autographs, which made Meng Ziyi feel embarrassed.
“Uncle and aunt, you don’t have to see me off. I wish you a pleasant journey!
Ziyi has a play tomorrow, don't be late!"
After dinner, Gu Wei said goodbye to his family and left the restaurant.
Meng Ziyi and his family of three drove back to the hotel.
"Does your boss have a girlfriend?" Meng Ziyi's mother asked curiously in the car.
"Mom, why are you asking this?"
"I think you two are a good match. If he doesn't have a girlfriend, you two can talk about it!"
"Mom~~" Meng Ziyi was a little shy, but she still asked tentatively.
"What if he has a girlfriend?"
Meng's mother hesitated for a moment: "It doesn't matter if you have a girlfriend. You're not married yet, right? Maybe they'll break up someday. You still have a chance!"
"Are you so optimistic about Gu Wei?"
Mother Meng nodded. "Yes, Gu Wei is rich, talented, handsome, and can help you with your career. He's a son-in-law you wouldn't find even with a lantern!"
Although she likes watching Gu Wei's dramas and is his fan, she did not match the two of them blindly. She still saw some of Gu Wei's strengths.
Meng Ziyi nodded in agreement. At this time, Meng's father spoke up: "Don't match people up blindly. In fact, if you ask me, Ziyi is better off not getting emotionally entangled with your boss."
"Why?" asked Meng's mother.
"Gu Wei's conditions are indeed good, but they are a bit too good. I am afraid Ziyi can't grasp it.
Besides his looks and personality, do you know how much money Gu Wei has?"
"As such a famous star, he must earn a lot. Plus he has his own company, so he must have assets worth billions, right?" Meng's mother guessed.
Meng Ziyi's family is wealthy. Her father is a businessman outside and her mother is a full-time housewife, so she doesn't have a clear view of some things.
"Billions? You underestimate him.
Take Ziyi's company [Weiming Tianxia], although it has not been listed, the outside world has given it a valuation of 40 billion. If it is listed, it is possible that the valuation will double.
Also, I read some financial news before, and Gu Wei still holds some shares of ByteDance and a small portion of Tencent shares.
The total net worth may be over 100 billion yuan.
What does a 100 billionaire mean in China?
Gu Wei is still so young and he has so many choices.
Compared to him, I hope Ziyi can find someone of equal status. Gu Wei is a bit too high, and Ziyi can’t grasp it.”
Dad Meng is a successful businessman. After so many years of experience in the business world, he knows very well what such great wealth will bring.
Although his family is not a wealthy family with assets worth tens or hundreds of billions, they are not short of money and naturally do not want their daughter to fall into this kind of relationship.
After hearing what he said, Meng's mother nodded in understanding and stopped talking.
Meng Ziyi didn't care about that, but Gu Wei's shadow was all in her mind. (End of this chapter)
