Chapter 82 Let's fight
What a pity.
Five minutes after she started the thread, no one responded to her directly.
A third of the audience was absorbed in discussing whether the male lead was the murderer, a third was soberly criticizing the low ratings, another was arguing over whether the male and female leads' acting matched their roles, the director's camerawork, and whether the plot was bloated. And a small handful were dreaming up something that sounded like something from outer space...
Let’s start tearing apart!
Once the netizens start fighting, they become so angry that they forget about their feelings and are willing to die!
When the vanguard has watched the second episode of "Little Secrets" and discussed the plot halfway through.
Apart from the fans who gradually followed suit and started booking the entire theater online, everyone else was busy and having a great time.
Those who criticize the acting skills of the male and female protagonists start to criticize their acting skills, those who criticize the plot as stupid and those who criticize the flop as stupid, and of course there are also those who follow the trend without knowing the reason and the drama fans who just want to watch the fun and make trouble.
But before we knew it, the three words "Little Secret" were already floating in the heads of all the major groups.
Of course, the team is also collecting data. Passersby may not be sensitive enough, but Guan Xianyi certainly sees it very clearly - there is no marketing element in these, it is all natural traffic!
She breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed a little, and leaned back in her chair.
The quality of "Little Secret" is good, and word of mouth is just a matter of time... coupled with the publicity and promotion that are coming in one after another, she is confident.
**
The reason why there is such a turmoil in the public opinion field is very simple.
There is no other reason, it’s just that "Little Secret" looks too much like the hit drama from my childhood.
Zhang Su is really good at filming modern youth dramas, and his shots are as clear as can be.
But what’s even better is the interlocking plot.
The story begins like this: the male protagonist Chen Xuyang, who just graduated from college, is suspected of being involved in a murder case.
Who is the deceased?
It’s the heroine’s sister Lin Qing.
"According to the on-site report, the deceased's body showed signs of pushing, pulling, and grabbing, as well as some scratches. This suggests that her fall from the building may have been a suicide, rather than a deliberate act."
Chen Xuyang, sitting in the interrogation room, was wearing a sweatshirt and looked like a young college student.
The light in the interrogation room shone on his face, but his expression and movements were flawless: "I did see Lin Qing on this rooftop..."
On the other side, the heroine Lin Xihe shed tears silently at her sister's funeral.
After repeated investigations, the police found that it was indeed not related to Chen Xuyang, and temporarily classified it as suicide.
But...but on the day Chen Xuyang was released, Lin Xihe saw him standing for a long time downstairs of the building where his sister died.
But when they passed by, Chen Xuyang actually had the leisure to smile at her - something was wrong, twenty percent wrong!
When she opened her eyes again, she was back to five years ago, but the face in the mirror was not her familiar face.
She threw herself against the mirror in disbelief. Outside the bathroom, her aunt was still calling, "Lin Qing, come out for dinner."
In the mirror was a face similar to hers, but not exactly the same as hers, Lin Qing's face——
**
The plot has a clear and compact rhythm, without any drag. It is a great pleasure to watch in just three episodes!
Chen Xuyang, who was very popular in the class, stood in front of Lin Xihe in real life from the filtered memories of five years ago and from Lin Qing's diary.
The trees outside the window are green and dense.
The boy in the blue and white school uniform stopped beside her seat and put down his backpack, which was slung over one shoulder, on the table. "Here, physics homework."
"Hey, don't do that?" Seeing that Lin Qing was still in a daze, Chen Xuyang leaned over for a second, took a look at her expression, turned his wrist flexibly, and deliberately pretended to be sad, preparing to take it back.
Seeing that someone was already collecting homework in front, Lin Xihe finally frantically dug out the physics homework with a small half blank in his bag: "No, no, no, I don't want it!"
This campus atmosphere is so authentic!
In the messy classroom in the early morning, the people who came over really had a feeling of being full of vigor and vitality, especially like tender grass leaves covered with dew.
The moment Chen Xuyang leaned over to look over, the campus scenery in the glass window behind him became his backdrop.
Not only was the heroine stunned for a second, all the audience who saw it were stunned.
"Shu Ming's canine teeth are the real finishing touch..."
"Who would understand? Even now, the corners of my mouth can't help but turn up. Zhang Su is such a great photographer."
There was also a shocked Xiufen: "No, back in 'Election 1', didn't you guys fall in love with that god-level stage 'Handwritten Past'?"
What?! Such an old story?! The audience rushed off to do some archaeological research, and were immediately captivated by the sight of 18-year-old Shu Ming, guitar in hand, his eyes sparkling as he strutted across the stage!
"Oh my god, I got into this too late..."
Of course, there are also calm analysis parties:
"Shu Ming's acting is still as good as ever. I feel that Duan Miaozhu's acting has improved in this drama..."
Lin Xihe quickly adapted to her sister's life.
The chaotic but friendly classmates, the campus schedule that was similar to her high school schedule, and—
Her heart, which had been quite happy, suddenly sank.
Chen Xuyang seems sunny and cheerful and likes to act cool, but he is shrouded in suspicion and is suspected to be a murderer.
But Chen Xuyang, although he was concentrating on doing the questions seriously, seemed to have eyes on the back of his head.
The black fountain pen spun deftly in his hand twice, leaving a tiny afterimage. Without even looking up, he asked, "Have you finished the questions? Stop daydreaming. The teacher is watching you from the podium!"
Lin Xihe was caught red-handed by him, his face turned red instantly, and he quickly lowered his head.
...Zhang Su is really good at taking pictures!
The reason why Zhang Su is the male lead in this drama is actually because he used a very special shooting method.
There are many moments when the audience observes the world around them through the eyes of the heroine, rather than the traditional God's perspective.
Of course, Duan Miaozhu is not stupid to take on this drama.
The main reason is that the heroine's character is both bright and challenging in the pool of "similar" idol dramas in recent years.
This includes the fact that she needs to play two roles in the play, Lin Qing and Lin Xihe, both of which she has to play alone... These special performance requirements are all "achievements" that can be expressed clearly!
However, in this way, the male lead has far more roles than the female lead, and can portray the different aspects of the character "Chen Xuyang" in a more three-dimensional and in-depth manner, portraying his struggles, complexity, and sharpness... It can also limit the audience's perspective, increase the sense of suspense, and fully arouse everyone's curiosity and discussion!
Zhang Su really did it. The plot was confusing and everyone had their own opinions. They had been tearing the plot apart to the point that they didn't know what was going on.
Why are you criticizing the male and female protagonists?
What data are you spraying?
Get out of the way! I have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 67 clues here that are sufficient to prove that Chen Xuyang is/is not the real murderer. I also want evidence that Chen Xuyang has discovered that Lin Qing is not her!
After three episodes were aired, by midnight, "Little Secrets" had quietly taken a bite out of the market. Just like the name of the series, it secretly made its way to the front row on the list.
For a pure web drama, this is already a pretty good result.
The premiere wasn't a huge success, but it was passable. I can only say that there weren't many passersby coming in at the moment, and it was mostly fans of the two leading actors who kept the show going.
Guan Xianyi relaxed a little and stretched his tense muscles.
She needs to be patient and wait for further developments.
**
On the night of the broadcast, people in the industry who had worked with Shu Ming spontaneously forwarded and promoted the video.
In fact, peers are nothing, but the next morning, even the film queen Li Yuan and TV King Qiao Minxue, as well as several big directors, reposted the Weibo to support Shu Ming.
#Shu Ming Ren Wu# immediately became a hot search——
It can be seen how tight Shu Ming's network of relationships within the circle is!
This kid is really popular!
It’s just that the show was broadcast so suddenly that no one got the news very early, so it wasn’t until the next night that there was a peak in growth!
When it comes to promoting Shu Ming, Liang Ruwen is naturally the first one to take the lead. Unfortunately, he is not an actor with deep roots in the film and television industry, so his promotion is not vertical enough, but it is better than nothing.
However, as the financial backer of the investment, Aurora is also following the detailed data of "Little Secret" in real time, and the overall trend is good.
After hearing Liang Ruwen's analysis, Shu Ming was not modest: "I also think that the overall plot is quite good!"
This tone... Liang Ruowen couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth on the other end of the phone.
It’s a pity that it’s useless for anyone to make an appointment now, because Shu Ming is busy!
Since the pre-broadcast promotion was not done well, the funds were naturally reserved for post-broadcast promotion.
The male protagonist, Shu Ming, busily completed the initial promotional period and then plunged into the ocean of review.
June is almost here. Everything is big, but of course the final exams are the biggest!
"These are the last few exams. Whether the grades are good or not is up to you. You must pass them!"
Guan Xianyi told Shu Ming that the contract she and Shu Ming signed originally required him to graduate on time.
Thinking of the sky-high penalty for breach of contract, even Shu Ming got goosebumps. He nodded and said nothing.
Only Orange was thinking at the side and sighing: "I did so poorly on the exams back then."
Back then, when she was in college, she would sit at the back of the classroom every semester, half her heart devoted to her phone and half to the teacher. When it came to the final exam, she would review the question bank, mark the key points, and then ask the teacher in the group for help. Somehow, she would pass the exam.
The time is also shorter, basically it will be finished in one or two weeks. It is not as hard as Shu Ming, who always has to work in the final month.
Guan Xianyi was so disappointed with the girl that he grabbed her ear and asked, "Who told you not to study hard?"
It was not until my junior year that I realized that I had no chance of being admitted to graduate school, and I also failed the civil service exam. In the end, I was desperate and sent out offers everywhere.
Fortunately, Orange had maxed out all his unusual skills, so she recruited him to be her assistant.
Talking about this, Shu Ming tapped his chin with the end of his pen: "Actually... if I hadn't entered the entertainment industry, my final destination would probably be similar to Sister Chengzi's."
He can either take the postgraduate entrance examination or take the civil service examination. Of course, if there is a job opportunity to stay in Beijing, he will definitely be willing to do so.
But it is the Chinese Department after all——
Shu Ming sat cross-legged in the large office chair and couldn't help laughing: "What's that saying? Ah, right."
He clapped his hands, revealing a bit of his fangs: "The Chinese Department of Capital University is also called the Chinese Department!"
After graduating from the Chinese department, about seven or eight out of ten people will take the civil service exam.
It's so sad. Just one wrong thought can turn my whole destiny upside down.
The others looked at him and also found it very strange.
Yes, if Shu Ming hadn't gone to the talent show because he was short of money, wouldn't he have most likely taken the civil service exam? Of course, you can't be sure if you'll end up in a big company...
With Shu Ming's intelligence and ability, he will do well in any path he chooses and his life will be very exciting.
It's not that Shu Ming needs the entertainment industry, but it's that everyone feels sorry for not being able to be a fan of Shu Ming...
When they were all lost in thought, when they looked up again, their classmate Xiao Shu had disappeared.
Quietly push open the door of the study - he has gone to study!
**
How could there be so many miscellaneous possibilities?
It doesn’t matter which path you take, you must take it well!
Shu Ming shook his head and rushed into the study, ready to turn a deaf ear to the outside world and concentrate on reading the books of sages.
Everyone started to exclaim, "Wow!"
The crew of "Little Secrets" quietly issued a battle report in the early hours of the morning.
"After five days on the air, congratulations to 'Little Secret' for breaking 10,000 views!"
It quickly became a hot topic.
Of course, next to the entry celebrating the crew's breaking 10,000 views, the first two and last two trending searches were all about the plot or data of "Little Secret"...
In fact, the public opinion monitoring and anti-black work of "Little Secret" has been done very well. Zhang Su has invested a lot of money in this aspect, but it can't withstand the fire!
Fire always attracts evil, there is nothing you can do about it. Zhang Su has already faced the reality, but he still can't help but put a smile on his face.
Good, good, boos, scolding and applause are all sounds, and the presence of sounds means the broadcast is good!
But despite all the criticism, "Little Secret" still managed to break the 10,000 mark.
For a moment, everyone who was bickering, discussing the plot, and analyzing it all stopped pinching each other.
Ha, you kid.
When did he break the ten thousand mark without telling us? How come we didn’t know?
Shu Fan: Huh? Is this really worth bragging about? Compared to "Grassland Love," we all thought "Little Secrets" was going to be a complete flop...
The onlookers were almost pissed off to death by these people!
Who asked you to compare it with "Grassland Love"? That was a CCTV drama, with a leading actress carrying the show, and that was Li Yuan, who has been in the industry for nearly 20 years!
The data of "Little Secret" is enough to sweep the Ant family and directly reach the annual championship!
And you—
Everyone was getting angrier and angrier as they watched, and they were almost calling names. No, that's not right, they were already calling names:
Most of Shu fans come from talent shows and don’t have a thorough understanding of the film and television industry. Don’t you Zhu fans understand it either?
You know, Duan Miaozhu is a serious actor!
Zhusi hesitated (pointing her finger): "Oh, really? We know this is a good result, but when we saw that the main actors' fans were silent, we were too embarrassed to say anything."
No, isn't this something shameful?
"Little Secret" uses personal experience to tell everyone that popular dramas will not brag about their popularity.
If it is really popular, it will only appear quietly on the mobile phones of elementary, middle and high school students, and turn into various emoticons, appearing in everyone's chat records when they are slacking off at work.
A more intuitive manifestation is that the investment data of "Little Secret" has been soaring.
With magazine/luxury endorsements as a foundation and a track record of acting as a lead actor, Shu Ming finally got his work on the table!
With achievements, business resources will naturally follow.
At Shu Ming's request, Guan Xianyi brought Zhuang Zheng with him on this business trip.
Perhaps it was really his brother and mother's career that gave him great stimulation.
In fact, Zhuang Zheng has been learning since Guan Xianyi took over Shu Ming, but he was not active enough. He was willing to learn, but he was always lacking a little.
But it was only after returning from the New Year that he showed strong signals of "wanting to make progress" for the first time.
With Shu Ming inviting him, Guan Xianyi would certainly not refuse. If he really cared about the artist, it would definitely be good to have a real "confidant" of the same sex around him.
A week later, Guan Xianyi rushed back from a long journey. As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted with several pieces of good news: "The show 'Little Secret' is really great this time."
She looked exhausted, but her tone was upbeat: "I've finally secured a few endorsements that I hadn't finalized, but the biggest news is the next film."
The next film will naturally be the art film that Rong Ankang is in charge of!
In fact, the information Rong Ankang had previously passed on was vague. He only knew the approximate schedule and role ranking, and knew nothing else.
There is still half a year before joining the crew of "Far Away", and during this half year there will naturally be countless scripts for Shu Ming to choose from.
But Qiao Minxue also persuaded Shu Ming to stay, and Yinghe also took an optimistic wait-and-see attitude after discussion.
So this schedule was dragged on in an unclear manner. Now that there was news, even Shu Ming put down his pen, turned around, and listened attentively.
Guan Xianyi was so amazed that he was glad that such a time slot was reserved for Rong Ankang.
What is even more surprising is how Shu Ming managed to get Rong Ankang to help him pull out such a huge pie.
She looked at Shu Ming deeply. Seeing this boy wearing a short-sleeved shirt and holding a pen, with an innocent look, she wanted to sigh, but couldn't help but feel overwhelmed, so she smiled slightly.
"Shu Ming, you are going international."
-----------------------
The author has something to say: This art film is quite meaningful and worth looking forward to.
I think the mode of broadcasting a drama and then revisiting it in a bland way... well, it's enough to use it once, and it will get boring if you use it too much.
Let’s open some new maps. I don’t know if the new maps will be liked by everyone, hehe.
