Chapter 24 Don't worry, let the bullets fly for a while
Whether a web drama is popular or not can be judged by the first three episodes. Usually, if it fails to capture the audience after three episodes, then the web drama will definitely be a flop.
The first episode is crucial to attracting people to continue watching.
Gu Tianqi didn't expect that she would finish watching a 45-minute episode of the web drama without realizing it, and even felt unsatisfied.
More importantly, this first episode is disjointed.
A good drama must make everyone look forward to watching the next episode.
At this time, Gu Tianqi had already forgotten about the manuscript she was going to write. She concentrated for a moment and continued reading.
At the beginning of the second episode, Yu Huanshui was mercilessly ridiculed at his mother-in-law's house when he took a low-quality red wine and pretended it was a company gift.
Gan Hong felt extremely embarrassed. When Yu Huanshui lied that the company was holding a social party, she ruthlessly exposed him.
divorce.
Gan Hong filed for divorce.
Because she was fed up with Yu Huanshui's habitual lying.
…
What really touched Gu Tianqi, or made Gu Tianqi depressed, was that Yu Huanshui discovered that Lu Fu had deceived him in Africa.
"Why?"
Yu Huanshui was about to collapse: "Why did you lie to me? I, I just can't understand this matter. Why do you treat me like this? You know, I'm in a mess because of this matter. My wife wants to divorce me, my son looks down on me, my colleagues at work, I, I'm in a mess because of this matter. I, I may even lose my job in the future. Why, I don't understand, why do you treat me like this, I treat you as a brother, how can you treat your brother like this? "
Facing Yu Huanshui's questioning, Lu Fumeng said with a smug look, "I am going to treat you like this. I am going to deceive you, I am going to lie, I am going to make your life difficult. What's wrong? Speaking of lying, you are my senior, do you treat your brothers as brothers? You feel wronged because your life is difficult? What about Dazhuang? Is Dazhuang's family doing well? If you want money, just tell me directly. What are you talking about buying a car and getting a divorce? Are you kidding me? Are you afraid that I won't pay you back? I tell you that 130,000 is nothing. I will give it to you in a minute. I will pay you back, but it depends on my mood."
…
This plot touched Gu Tianqi because she had also been borrowed money by someone before. She gave the money she used to pay the rent to her best friend. As a result, her best friend used the money to go shopping, eat, and post all kinds of activities on her Moments, but she just refused to pay Gu Tianqi back.
She even questioned, "You ask me for that little money every day. Why are you so stingy? Where's your best friend?"
Nowadays, the one who owes money is the grandfather, and the one who borrows money is the grandson.
Gu Tianqi looked at this scene and remembered his own affairs.
At the same time, she was a little confused about the plot. What happened to Dazhuang?
Then Yu Huanshui's memories solved Gu Tianqi's confusion.
This scene connects perfectly with the beginning. Yu Huanshui survived the car accident, but Dazhuang should have died.
Yu Huanshui, looking a little depressed and helpless, was walking on the street when he received a call from his father.
Want money.
He immediately asked Yu Huanshui for 50,000 yuan, and said with confidence that the money was Yu Huanshui's dead mother's money, and if he didn't give it to him, he would sue Yu Huanshui in court.
After hanging up the phone, Yu Huanshui finally broke down and cried.
Adults sometimes break down at this moment, and a phone call stopped Yu Huanshui from crying. He looked at the call marked as "Old Devil" and chose to reject it.
At this time, he stopped crying.
Because adults don’t even have the right to break down and cry.
So Yu Huanshui wanted to get drunk to forget his worries, but he felt unwell and had to go to the hospital for a check-up.
…
Gu Tianqi was really depressed after watching this episode.
Yu Huanshui is so miserable.
I was just bullied in various ways.
Although she is not middle-aged yet and cannot understand the misery of middle-aged office workers, she can empathize with Yu Huanshui for not paying back the money he borrowed from Lu Fumeng. More importantly, he couldn't even get Gan Hong to accompany him to the hospital when he wanted.
This wife is really nice.
The most important thing is that the second episode also contains a huge amount of information, and the two lines are merged into one line.
One line is Yu Huanshui's line, which is miserable throughout.
One line is the line of Wei Guangjun, Zhao Juemin and Liang Annie. These three people happened to be run into by Yu Huanshui while dividing the spoils in KTV. Then it happened that after Yu Huanshui left, Liang Annie's USB flash drive disappeared. Finally, the three of them began to entangle with Yu Huanshui.
The two lines are clear.
The rhythm is clear.
The actors performed conscientiously.
Not to mention Lin Feiyang, who plays Yu Huanshui. Gu Tianqi feels that he has really underestimated Lin Feiyang.
She never expected that Lin Feiyang, who was once a popular young actor with good looks, could now play the role of a middle-aged office worker in his 40s without any sense of inappropriateness. Every part of his body was full of drama, even his crying was acting.
Yu Huanshui was tortured to the extreme in the first two episodes. Gu Tianqi felt like he was in Yu Huanshui's shoes and he became sick all over.
In the third episode, Yu Huanshui finally rebounded.
cancer.
Yu Huanshui had never thought that he had cancer. He had wanted to commit suicide, and he had tied the rope and was about to kick the stool, but the sound of an electric drill from the renovation work upstairs made him completely explode.
He rushed up with a stool, and then did something. I am Huan's brother in society. He is a ruthless person who doesn't talk much.
Yu Huanshui bid farewell to his cowardice completely.
Not only did he destroy all the decorations upstairs, he also got rid of the dog.
When the upstairs owner and the dog owner came to ask for an explanation, Yu Huanshui said arrogantly: "I don't have any money, but I have my life."
When a person is not afraid even of death, he has nothing to fear.
Yu Huanshui scolded Zhao Juemin.
Yu Huanshui scolded Wei Guangjun.
Yu Huanshui humiliates Liang Annie.
…
As cowardly and aggrieved as Yu Huanshui was in the first two episodes, how satisfying it was when he bounced back in the third episode.
Of course, in the third episode, Yu Huanshui still makes people feel that he is quite tragic.
He bought a car for Gan Hong, and promised to move out of the household after the divorce. He left the house to Gan Hong, but when he was detained for smashing the grocery store with fake liquor and was required to pay fines and compensation, Gan Hong refused to pay for him.
The relationship between husband and wife had long since ended.
Gan Hong is really amazing. It seems unworthy for Yu Huanshui to be so nice to her.
At 9:20, Gu Tianqi was originally planning to watch "I Am Yu Huanshui" because of her classmate Feng Ling's recommendation. As a result, she couldn't stop watching it once, and it was already 11:30 when she finished watching it.
For more than two hours, Gu Tianqi didn't fast forward at all, and didn't even turn it up to double speed.
It's really wonderful.
She glanced at the comments section.
"Fuck, Yu Huanshui is so miserable, MMP, as a middle-aged office worker, I am crying after watching this."
"Realistic, this drama is too realistic, especially the part about borrowing money, it made me angry. Damn, Lu Fumeng's face is exactly the same as my junior high school classmate. He borrowed 1 million from me for ten years and still hasn't paid me back."
"This drama is great. Apart from anything else, Lin Feiyang's acting is just too explosive. This is real explosive acting. Those popular stars should stop bragging about their acting skills. They are not even original voices."
"Why is the hit rate so low? Everyone should promote it on their own initiative."
“Those who said this drama will flop, that this drama is a bad drama, are they slapped in the face??”
…
The comments section was just as Gu Tianqi expected.
Moreover, the rhetoric is different from that in the comment section of "The Return of the Female Zen Master", because that comment section is obviously controlled by fans, and there is no discussion about the plot at all.
But the comment section of "I Am Yu Huanshui" is different. Everyone in the comment section is discussing the plot.
Some people feel sorry for Yu Huanshui.
Some people think it is Ganhong green tea.
Some people think Annie Liang is sexy.
etc.
In short, the comments section is full of flowers.
Didi.
At this time, Gu Tianqi's work number rang.
Editor-in-Chief: "Xiao Gu, have you finished writing the manuscript? Send it to me for a look."
Gu Tianqi suddenly woke up after seeing the editor-in-chief's message.
She finished writing... bullshit.
It's over, it's over.
She was so engrossed in watching the play that she forgot about the manuscript.
When watching the first episode of "I Am Yu Huanshui", Gu Tianqi was still thinking about writing a script, but when she watched the second and third episodes, she completely forgot about writing a script.
But it was impossible for Gu Tianqi to reply to the editor in chief like this.
After all, they sometimes have to serve their financial backers.
Gu Tianqi hurriedly said, "Editor-in-chief, it's almost done. We just need a few details. Wait for me for ten minutes."
The editor-in-chief replied immediately: "Haha, don't worry, Xiao Gu, I was right about you. We should be so careful and meticulous when writing articles."
hehe.
Facing the editor's words, Gu Tianqi laughed and began to go into a rampage mode.
Although it was disgusting to praise "The Return of the Swordswoman", for the sake of money, Gu Tianqi decided to give up his own ethics.
Ten minutes later, she sent the blown-up version of "The Return of the Swordswoman" to the editor-in-chief.
Then, Gu Tianqi did not plan to leave, because watching "I Am Yu Huanshui" made her lose all her pajamas, so she planned to write a good review of "I Am Yu Huanshui".
Before I knew it, it was already 12 o'clock.
At this time, "The Return of the Heroine" and "I Am Yu Huanshui" had been on the air for a full 4 hours.
Although it was already 12 o'clock in the evening, many people were still awake.
Yu Xiaoshu’s home.
Lin Feiyang was drinking with Yu Xiaoshu.
"Xiaoshu, do we still have a chance??"
Lin Feiyang couldn't help but frown as he looked at the dismal data of "I Am Yu Huanshui".
"Don't be impatient, let the bullets fly for a while."
Yu Xiaoshu shook his head and said, "After all, the traffic of Xiaoma Video is far behind the Big Three. The moment that will truly determine our fate will be tomorrow."
Whether a web drama is successful depends on 24 hours of data. If it is broadcast on the three major platforms, then that one hour may determine its fate. However, Xiaoma Video is a small website after all, so it needs time for public opinion to ferment.
Therefore, the fate can only be decided after 24 hours.
Moreover, although "I Am Yu Huanshui" was heavily promoted, it was still several levels lower than "The Return of the Swordswoman", coupled with the natural disadvantages of the Xiaoma video platform.
Yu Xiaoshu can accept the current situation.
So, let the bullets fly for a while.
