Why did we lose?!
Early in the morning of July 5, this bolt from the blue fell on Wen Dongrong's head. Thinking of the 1,000 yuan that was about to fly out of his pocket, Wen Dongrong didn't even have the mood to go to work.
I wanted to call and question Hei Xinmian, but for some reason I was particularly busy at work today, and things kept coming up one after another, leaving Wen Dongrong unable to take care of anything.
The same doubt was also lingering in Wen Ying's mind.
Today, the results of the final exam are finally out, and Wen Ying is now completely confused.
Why is there a gap of 2 places?
What the hell is 102!
Last semester, Xie Qian set a goal for her to be in the top 120 in her grade, and she ranked 127th.
This semester, Xie Qian set a goal of being in the top 100 in her grade, and she ranked 102nd.
There were only two people left to reach the goal. Wen Ying even suspected that the teacher who set the questions for this year's final exam was causing trouble... This reason was so strong that even Li Mengjiao was shocked.
"You're taking your anger out on yourself because you didn't do well on the test!"
Li Mengjiao blurted out the answer, then realized she had made a mistake. She cautiously asked Wen Ying, "Are you tired from battling Yu Tianlin and the others recently? Don't worry about not being able to surpass them in the ratings. Your script is so good, our show will definitely win!"
Hanhan's consolation was so straightforward and cute that Wen Ying couldn't help but blush.
Of course we can’t blame the teacher who set the questions.
Wen Ying felt that she had reached a bottleneck in her studies.
In her previous life, her grades in the provincial key school were not top-notch, and her intelligence would not increase after her rebirth. Even with Xie Qian pulling her forward, Wen Ying might never reach the top - if it weren't for Xie Qian's tutoring, she would be multitasking and her academic performance might even be worse than in her previous life!
There is no essential difference between ranking 102nd in the grade and ranking 100th. Wen Ying herself can accept it, but she is afraid that Xie Qian will be disappointed.
Wen Ying couldn't help feeling uneasy when she thought that Xie Qian would be disappointed in her.
Even when she learned that the premiere ratings of "Love Cruise" surpassed "Star River with You", Wen Ying was not worried, because she knew that "Love Cruise" was only temporarily ahead, and "Star River with You" would overtake it sooner or later.
The test results were not good, and it was completely beyond Wen Ying's control.
She works hard, and so do other students. There are so many big names in the key provincial schools in Chengdu!
The only thing that made Wen Ying feel fortunate was that Xie Qian was in Shanghai at the moment. She didn't have to tell Xie Qian the final exam results in person, as they were thousands of kilometers apart. She could just inform Xie Qian via text message. Maybe the matter would be over when Xie Qian returned to Chengdu from Shanghai?
With such a lucky mentality, Wen Ying regained her happy mood. Seeing the conclusions drawn by some media after their self-righteous analysis of the two dramas "Love Cruise" and "Star River and You", Wen Ying couldn't help laughing.
On the eve of the series' premiere, renowned screenwriter Zhang Guangzhen ripped into Love Cruise, detailing his conflicts with the production team in a lengthy blog post. He bluntly stated that the original plot of Love Cruise had been dismantled, and refused to acknowledge the aired version as his own work. At the same time, Zhang Guangzhen praised Tianjiao's new drama, Star River and You, as one of the most anticipated works of the year, and predicted that the market would give the final verdict on both series.
"'Love Cruise' had a 2.99% viewership rating on its first day, surpassing last year's premiere record for 'The Princess's New Clothes'. 'Star River With You' had a mere 2.12% viewership rating!"
"What struck this reporter as odd was the disparity in ratings between the two dramas. The audience reviews were practically reversed. "Star River With You" received rave reviews online, with praise lavished on everything from the plot to the actors' performances, including the theme song. Meanwhile, "Love Cruise" received some negative reviews, with comments claiming Yu Tianlin's acting hadn't improved in years, the new female lead's acting was stiff, and that unignorable plot logic flaws had appeared after only two episodes."
"Admittedly, the difference in premiere ratings between the two dramas is due to the broadcast platforms themselves. 'Love Cruise' doesn't seem to be as good as everyone expected... Does this prove that Yu Tianlin's popularity hasn't been significantly affected by the scandal, and that his popularity alone is supporting the entire drama? After 'Love Cruise' finishes airing, Yu Tianlin's popularity may reach a new high."
"Zhang Guangzhen made a mistake in his prediction. When interviewed by this newspaper, he still did not change his original statement, angrily calling "Love Cruise" the worst film of the year and expressing no regrets about criticizing the show!"
Well, at first glance it seems to be well written and contains some useful information.
But if you look closely, it's nothing.
The high ratings of the first episode of "Love Cruise" were the last vestiges of the scandal between Yu Tianlin and Hu Man, and also because Hunan Satellite TV had too much market share.
In the national provincial satellite TV audience share ranking, Hunan Satellite TV ranks first.
Oriental TV is hovering at the bottom of the top ten provincial TV stations in terms of audience share, and the gap between it and Hunan TV is huge. To put it bluntly, if Oriental TV had not produced the "Good Man" program this year, it would not even be worthy of being a competitor of Hunan TV.
Despite such a huge gap in audience base, "Starry River With You" and "Love Cruise" premiered on the same day, but the ratings of "Starry River With You" still reached 2.12%, which is already an incredible result!
Even if Wen Ying and Yuan Fenghui did not add fuel to the fire, "Star River With You" could still slowly make a comeback relying on word of mouth. The various actions of Wen Ying and Yuan Fenghui only accelerated the progress of the counterattack.
Wen Ying herself was not in a hurry, but she didn't expect that Lao Wen seemed very anxious.
Wen Ying went to school to get her report card in the morning. She went straight home without going to Tianjiao and spent the whole afternoon writing the new book in the Jiuding series, "Xun Yong". When you are fully focused on writing, time always passes very quickly. Wen Ying didn't even notice when Wen Dongrong came home from get off work and opened the door.
Wen Dongrong angrily knocked on the study door and threw the newspaper in front of Wen Ying: "Didn't you say that 'Love Cruise' was terrible and that 'Star River With You' was sure to win? The ratings on the first day of the broadcast were so far behind it, how dare you!"
