Chapter 921: Ratings Break 10
Two days later on the weekend, "Youth Project" was broadcast on the national TV drama channel's prime time in the evening as planned. The audience attracted by the trailer were already eager to watch and stayed in front of the TV.
At exactly eight o'clock, without a second's delay, the TV station's backstage staff cut into the opening credits of "Youth Plan" on time. At this moment, the national TV station's ratings hit a three-year high, reaching 10 percent.
Normally, an average of 4% is already a big deal, but now it has jumped directly to 10%. This data has excited the TV station. It is no longer the era of 30 or 40 years ago when a TV series would attract thousands of people. They have not seen such high ratings for a long time. The last time their ratings broke 10 was four years ago, when Wang Xiangqin starred in the drug-themed TV series "Undercover", which was a ratings miracle in the Internet era. In addition, the Internet has developed rapidly in the past four years, and now almost everyone has a mobile phone. The leader of the TV series channel once asserted that "Undercover" is a monument and a crossroads of the times. After it, no other drama will be able to surpass it.
The leader's prediction was thus broken by the Youth Plan.
The national TV station's programs are not broadcast in real time with the online channels. Generally, tonight's programs will not be uploaded to the Internet until tomorrow morning, and the online version will be charged! Especially for this innovative weekly drama, the delay will be longer and the charge will be higher.
Young netizens who had watched the trailer in advance couldn't wait to watch the feature film. They didn't want to wait even a minute longer, but they couldn't watch the show on their mobile phones. Not to mention that students in school couldn't access TV, and young office workers generally didn't have traditional TVs installed at home. Fortunately, that day was May 1, the Labor Day holiday, and the students who could go home went home a day in advance to watch the TV stations.
A hot topic on Weibo asked people where to go for May Day, and someone replied, "What to do? There are crowds everywhere. Wouldn't it be nice to buy a bunch of snacks and drinks and stay at home and watch TV shows?"
It doesn't matter if you can't find a TV. Some kind-hearted people on the Internet set up live broadcast rooms, re-filmed their own TV screens, and showed them to netizens for free. This is why the ratings of the first broadcast of "Youth Plan" exceeded 10. Even though everyone didn't see the long-awaited Tang Tu, Lu Yuanning, Shen Mozhen and Lina in the first two episodes, it still didn't affect the popularity of this drama after only two episodes.
It should be emphasized that the target audience of "Youth Plan" is young people between the ages of 12 and 30. Most of the crew members are also in this age range and have clear memories of campus life. Under the leadership of Ye Ziliang, they restore the high school story as authentically as possible without being divorced from reality, allowing the audience to feel involved.

The TV series begins from the perspective of the heroine Lu Lu. Lu Lu perfectly interprets a top student who accidentally transferred to a regular class and was obviously scared and at a loss when facing a group of poor students, but still insisted on her noble character.
"The leading actress is so cute, you can't tell she's a complete newcomer at all."
"Can I say that I like Yang Huayue more? I have no resistance to the setting of a bad student, and her appearance is so cool, a complete bad student, rebellious and outspoken. I find that she is particularly suitable for playing such weird roles, such as Ji An in "The Sound of Wind". I have no impression of the positive roles she played before."
"Her singing is so amazing, I almost laughed to death."
"Bai Yuhan is extremely handsome, a real handsome young man, but it's a pity that he has too few scenes."
"Hahahaha, I actually saw my colleague in a TV series broadcast on the national TV station. Awesome, so awesome!"
Liu? and the lucky fans of the "ladies" have been participating in the filming of the TV series since the first episode. Imagine the feeling of suddenly seeing ordinary people around you, who are no different from yourself, appear in a popular TV series.
The crew is very kind and will not look down on these fans just because they are there for show. Every fan has at least 5 seconds of frontal shot so that people who know him/her can recognize them at a glance.
This operation made netizens like the drama even more. After all, many people witnessed the lucky draw with their own eyes, so they were also indirectly involved in the casting of the TV series!
The second episode of "Youth Project" has just finished airing, and the audience is already looking forward to next week's update.
