"Mom," Luo Chen finally couldn't sit still anymore. He glanced at his mother beside him and said angrily, "I need to go out for a while."
Zhou Yiyang opened the door and was shocked when he saw Luo Chen standing behind the door in a hurry.
He wondered if Luo Chen finally felt that he had too few resources and wanted to perish together with his boss?
"Chen, let's calm down and come in and have some tea first."
"Brother Yang!" Luo Chen was furious: "It's already this late, and you still have the mind to drink tea!"
Zhou Yiyang felt inexplicably guilty, although he didn't understand why he was scolded.
"If we don't come up with some strategies, the premiere of 'Ode to Joy' will be completely ineffective! Brother Yang, I know you're incredibly talented in music. But the TV industry is different. High quality alone won't guarantee success."
There are so many good but unpopular dramas every year, but that’s all because the initial popularity was too low, so no matter how much hype there is later on, it’s useless!
Zhou Yiyang understood that Luo Chen was worried about Ode to Joy! He was still a little touched.
"Tell me, what do you think?" Zhou Yiyang asked.
"This month's Moonlight Radio hasn't aired yet, right? We can watch Ode to Joy live, and I'll be on the show too. It'll be a big deal anyway."
Zhou Yiyang looked at Luo Chen with amusement and emotion. "I appreciate your kindness, but if I do the same thing again, it won't have the same buzz as the first time. As for you, just post a Weibo to promote it. After all, you're the male lead of this drama."
"Is that it?" Luo Chen asked back.
"Well, that's it. The publicity for 'The Legend of Yunlong' is massive today, and we can't compete with it no matter what we do. But you also have to know that our publicity period is longer, so the premiere won't be so low. Wouldn't it be better for us to wait until the first day's word-of-mouth is out, and then we can do some marketing?"
Luo Chen was stunned at first, but then he was unconsciously convinced by Zhou Yiyang. "Well, that seems to make sense."
Seeing Luo Chen was about to leave, Zhou Yiyang stopped him: "Let's go downstairs and watch TV together. Guan Fei and Lao Bai will be here soon. I'll call Qiao Zishan."
Half an hour later, the room was full of people. Wang Xingrui and Qiao Zishan were busy in the kitchen, preparing dessert.
Su Yin generously took out her treasured snacks and shared them with everyone.
Tang Yue caught Luo Chen and asked him a lot of gossip to satisfy her curiosity.
Guan Fei was originally worried, but after seeing everyone's attitude, she relaxed a lot.
Early ratings are certainly important, but there shouldn’t be too many IP dramas that start strong but end poorly.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the Panda Theater of Bashu Satellite TV and the Golden Eagle Theater of Xiangjiang Satellite TV both premiered their new dramas at the same time.
"Come on, come on," Zhou Yiyang brought the takeaway crayfish to the table: "Let's eat and watch at the same time!"
There are also more discussions about the two dramas on Weibo.
Of course, the fans on both sides are full of tension and can easily start quarreling if you're not careful.
Fans of "Legend of Yunlong" feel that "Ode to Joy" has been subsidizing them since the project was launched, and has also used malicious marketing to ride on their popularity. This kind of garbage drama is only watched by rubbish.
Fans of "Ode to Joy" think that "Legend of Yunlong" is too exaggerated. There have been too many IP dramas that have failed in recent years, so they will not try to take advantage of the popularity of this kind of gay drama.
After the first episode was aired, discussion posts about the two dramas appeared in well-known discussion forums such as Bazu, Tuqu, Tianya, Shipu, and Bihu.
During the commercial break, Tang Yue picked up her phone and read aloud with everyone with great emotion:
"Oh my god, Ling Hu is so horny! What's the name of the actor who replaced Luo Chen? He's so handsome. Is anyone buying groceries?"
"Ahhh, hlyl is indeed rich. This fight scene is so gorgeous! Fdd's stunning beauty is truly stunning!"
"Jrs, what's the quality of Feng Duoduo's screenshots from the drama? Can she be this year's pedestrian street goddess?"
"The first episode of the IP drama "Legend of Yunlong" has aired. What do you think?"
"Okay, this is what netizens are discussing about 'The Legend of Yunlong'."
At this moment, Bai Yangyu's expression was like an old man on the subway checking his phone: "Um, hlyl, what does fdd mean?"
"Hailang Entertainment, Feng Duoduo." Tang Yue revealed the answer.
"Why does this need to be abbreviated?" Bai Yangyu still didn't understand.
"That's how the anonymous zone is. It likes to play dumb." Tang Yue said bluntly.
"The next step is the discussion among netizens about us."
"Sisters, have any of you watched Ode to Joy? It's so immersive with three girls living together!"
"Qu Xiaoxiao is such a disgusting neighbor! Why did lxe choose this character?"
"Jrs, the five beauties from 'Ode to Joy' are out, I can do it!"
"The first episode of the new drama 'Ode to Joy' has aired. What do you think?"
Zhou Yiyang coughed lightly and said, "Aside from a certain male forum discussing the looks of female celebrities, it seems that the discussions related to our drama are mostly about the plot. This is a good thing."
"Right," Bai Yangyu also came back to his senses: "Xuan'er, don't be anxious. The more your character is criticized, the better your performance is."
Lin Xuan'er immediately waved her hand: "It's okay, I think this is a good idea. The more discussion there is, the more benefits it will bring to me."
"Yeah," Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief. "Looking at it now, our feedback is actually pretty good. A lot of the posts on 'Legend of Yunlong' seem to be from fans."
"It's too early to say that now," Zhou Yiyang reminded, "We'll have to wait until the ratings come out to know."
At this time, the commercial ended and the second episode aired.
