China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

The finale of Chapter 131 is explosive, extremely explosive!

There is no suspense at all, the role of Xu Liangcai is a hit.

With the character's tragic end, "The Signal" ratings skyrocketed again for its finale.

The ratings of the finale even exceeded Li Yu's own expectations, with the final episode rating of 6.1.

Since the whole drama started low but went high, the overall average ratings were lowered by the previous ones, and in the end the overall average ratings were 4.8.

This is a criminal investigation suspense theme that cannot be used in prime time. This ratings has already reached the ceiling of criminal investigation.

This ratings undoubtedly beat the "Sad Love Song" that Xiangnan Taiwan spent a lot of money to buy from Silla and had high hopes.

I heard that the market research department of Xiangnan Station was criticized.

Did you say that the ratings of Silla dramas are very strong?
  Did you agree that the ratings of Silla dramas are guaranteed?
  Isn’t it said that Kim Hee Sun is the queen of ratings?
  It would be understandable if "Sad Love Song" cannot beat the idol dramas directed by Li Yu. After all, Li Yu is recognized as the king of idol dramas.

But "Sad Love Song", as an idol drama with a wide audience, can't compete with the criminal investigation and suspense genre "Signal". What the hell is it?

What's even more outrageous is that "Sad Love Song" occupies the prime time slot, while "Signal" is broadcast in the late night slot.

It stands to reason that the ratings of dramas broadcast in the prime time slot should be much higher than those broadcast in the late night slot.

With "Signal" and "Sad Love Song" the situation was completely reversed, and everyone in the marketing department was confused.

This is inconsistent with their previous research experience.

Before the Chinese New Year, Liu Shishi, Tang Yan, Luo Jin and others gathered in Li Yu's courtyard to enjoy a feast together.

The New Year is coming, and after eating this big meal, it’s time for everyone to go back to their homes to find their respective mothers.

"Director Li, you are so awesome. It's your first time filming a criminal investigation drama and you actually got an average ratings of 4.8. Do you know what this means? It's like Director Li's first time filming this subject. This subject has hit the ceiling.”

Luo Jin said excitedly.

Everyone expressed their admiration.

During the dinner, Liu Shishi looked at Li Yu with admiration in her eyes. He was indeed the man she fancied, he was too strong.

Huh?
  Liu Shishi soon discovered something was wrong. She found that her best friend Tang Yan also had a gleam in her eyes when she looked at Li Yu, with an expression of admiration similar to hers.

This was a wake-up call for her.

She could already smell a sense of crisis.

She regards Tang Yan as a sister, and Tang Yan wants to be her sister-in-law?
  Tang Yan noticed the change in Liu Shishi's expression and returned to normal in a second.

Several of these future foursomes have acting talents, but they just don't put their talents into acting.

For example, the acting of Tang Yan just now can win the Best Supporting Actress.

"Shi Shi, what's wrong? Didn't you think our Director Li was very handsome just now? As a woman, it's normal to not be able to help but take a second look, right?"

Tangyan knows how to advance before retreating.

If she is secretive, she will be exposed more easily.

She is straightforward, showing that Director Li is very charming. As a woman, she sometimes cannot control her instincts, which shows that she is magnanimous.

Sure enough, Liu Shishi looked relieved.

Her parents were both conquered by Li Yu, and she could understand Tang Yan's loss of grace!
  As Tang Yan said, a rich, handsome and talented man is always in demand no matter where he goes, and it's hard not to be fascinated by him.

"Tangtang, you have reached the age to find a boyfriend. When will you bring a boyfriend back and introduce him to me?"

Although Liu Shishi had 'forgiven' Tang Yan for what she had just done, she was no longer at ease with Tang Yan in her heart.

She had to let Tang Yan find a boyfriend before she could feel completely at ease.

She is very protective of food, what is hers is hers, no one is allowed to take it away.

They are just plastic sisters. You don’t really expect them to have a deep sisterly relationship, right?
  Tang Yan had a smile on her face: "Shi Shi, don't you have a boyfriend? Of course, a sister should advance and retreat at the same time as a sister.

My sister is single. If I let your sister be single, wouldn't it appear that I, as a sister, value sex over friends? "

You and Director Li haven't confirmed your relationship yet?
  Why are you so proud in front of me? 'Pfft' Liu Shishi felt like a sharp dagger was inserted into his heart. It hurt too much.

Liu Shishi, who was heartbroken, turned his head away and remained silent.

Unconvinced, Tang Yan turned her head to the other side.

The word "love each other" is very suitable for the situation.

Cracks have appeared between the plastic sisters.

In fact, it was only a matter of time before they became friends. Even without Li Yu, they would still drift apart after "The Best Uniform" started airing.

Because red flowers only match better with green leaves.

If both flowers are red, then it’s time to compete for beauty.

In the words of Captain Chu: "How can a man live in heaven and earth and live in depression for a long time under others?"

Ever since Li Yu told Tang Yan that "The Best Military Uniform" could explode, Tang Yan was instilled with confidence and became more confident.

The glint of swords and shadows on Liu Shishi and Tang Yan's side did not attract anyone else's attention.

After all, Li Yu is the absolute protagonist today, and everyone's eyes are focused on Li Yu.

While pushing cups and changing cups, Li Yu's phone rang.

Li Yu made a gesture to let everyone talk first and went to the next room to answer the phone.

"Director Li, your "Signal" is really stunning! Our leader asked you if you want to make a big deal after the year and make a sequel seamlessly. We will give you as much support as you want."

The caller was Lao Zheng, the deputy director of Xiangnan Taiwan Film Purchasing Department.

He is the person who has the most contacts with Li Yu in Xiangnan Terrace.

His call was obviously an instruction from his boss.

Don’t look at the previous leaders who were not optimistic about “The Signal”. When "Signal" relied on its own hard power to fight a beautiful turnaround and completely beat "Sad Love Song" that they purchased from Silla at a high price, they immediately said it was so good.

The ratings of "The Signal" increased so quickly in the later period. In addition to the excellent quality of "The Signal" itself, the shift of Xiangnan Channel's promotional focus to "The Signal" in the later period is a point that cannot be ignored.

It's all for profit! They will praise anyone who can make money for the TV station, that's how realistic it is.

Li Yu has already proved his status as a capable director with "Signal", and he can still be popular even if he doesn't make idol dramas.

In the past, Xiang Nantai might have worried that Li Yu would not be able to shoot other subjects safely.

Now they are completely relieved. No matter what Li Yu shoots, he is a good comrade in their station.

Lao Zheng, who contacted Li Yu, was very relieved. At first, he advocated that "The Signal" should be taken seriously, but no one listened to his words at the time. Only after the leaders reacted later did they realize how vicious his vision was.

The leader has already hinted to him that after the old film purchasing director retires in two years, he will be the new head of the film purchasing department. There will be many opportunities for him to interact with Li Yu in the future.

"Director Li, the reputation of "Signal" is so great. If we bring back the original cast and make a sequel, even if the quality drops a little, the ratings will be great.

Anyway, the setting of "Signal" is to jointly solve crimes across time and space. There are so many mysterious cases in the world, and there is a lot of material to write about.

We should strike while the iron is hot and seize this opportunity to try again. "

The more Lao Zheng talked, the more excited he became.

Li Yu said calmly: "Minister Zheng, what you said makes sense, but I still want to express my regret to you.

Since I don't plan to make a sequel to "The Signal," I have a full schedule for next year. "

"What are Director Li's plans for next year?"

Lao Zheng was surprised.

It's only January, Li Yu told him that this year's work is full?

What is Li Yu doing?
  Isn't it going to be a big job?
  After about five or six seconds, he finally waited for Li Yu's answer, and the look on his face became surprised! It’s really a fucking big job.
