Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 243: National Discussion
Li Qingqing secretly rejoiced, "Luckily I saw the notification sent in the group, otherwise I would have regretted it for the rest of my life."

She returned to her room and turned on her computer.

As expected, the group was already in an uproar.

"I know Xiao Chen won't let me down. This pair is locked together and will never be separated again."

"Now it's complete, my Professor Chen. Woohoo, I'm so unwilling to give up my position to An Xi."

"This couple is so sweet, don't break them up. Just keep an eye on Brother Feng and tell him not to mess around with other girls in the future."

Outside of the fan group, opinions are less unified.

More people still think that the CCTV version is the orthodox official plot, and the Mango TV version is a special version for fans, not Xiao Chen’s true intention.

But no matter what, there is a happy ending and the fans are satisfied.

I appreciate the tragic ending more because CCTV is more authoritative and I am satisfied with it.

All are happy.

The media was reporting news about "My Love from the Star" like crazy.

The first drama broadcast by CCTV, "My Love from the Star", had an average national viewership rating of 12.43%, a peak viewership rating of 13.97%, and a peak audience share of nearly 40%.

Since 2000, its ratings are second only to "The Great Tang Empire".

"The Tang Empire" was also written and starred by Chen Linfeng.

This time, the ratings were achieved even while competing with itself.

When it was broadcast on Mango Channel, the local ratings exceeded 20%.

Mango TV's "You Who Came From the Stars" also appeared in the ratings statistics of other provincial TV stations.

Li Mei's vision was correct, and he also made the right bet.

Mango TV also made a lot of money by spending 4000 million to buy 1.5 rounds.

How popular was "My Love from the Star" when it was broadcast on Mango Channel?

Even on Saturday night, just a few days after its launch, "Happy Camp" had an average viewership of 7% due to the participation of Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian, setting a record high in history.

The second round was sold out just after the first round was aired.

The provincial TV stations were frantically pursuing the second-round broadcasting rights, and the price was as high as 60 per episode, totaling 1800 million.

This is in stark contrast to most TV dramas, where the second round may slip to one-tenth.

In fact, the situation of "The Great Tang Empire" last time was similar to this time. The second round price was only about 60% lower than the first round.

The industry calls this situation a unique phenomenon of Xiao Chen's dramas.

Let’s get back to the media trends.

They have now reached a new stage and started to randomly ask passers-by on the street about their opinions on "My Love from the Star".

Reporter: "May I ask what do you think of the recently aired My Love from the Star?"

A: "It's very good. It feels like it breaks through the existing pattern of domestic dramas. It feels like watching a foreign drama."

Reporter: "May I ask what do you think of the recently aired "My Love from the Star"? "

B: "I heard someone say that My Love from the Stars is a show from the future. I think this is the most appropriate description. It is so good that it doesn't seem like a product of this era."

Reporter: "That's a very high evaluation indeed. May I ask the lady next to you, what do you think..."

C: "It's very nice. I like Professor Chen very much. Can you show this video to Professor Chen and tell him that I love him and hope to marry him in the next life?"

B (squinting): Then what am I as a boyfriend?
In addition to those who have watched it, reporters also asked about those who had not watched it.

But they almost unanimously said that they had heard of the drama and that their colleagues/friends had been discussing it frequently recently.

As long as I’ve been busy recently, I’ll catch up on the drama.

“My Love from the Star” has apparently already attracted nationwide attention and discussion, at least among young people and urban white-collar workers.

……

In addition to these passers-by, the reporter certainly would not forget Wang Shuo.

After all, many people in the industry knew about the bet, and the reporters certainly knew about it.

But Wang Shuo had obviously predicted this and fled abroad before the TV series was finished.

So the reporter found the winner of the bet, Chen Kaige.

This time, when facing the reporters, Da Chen was more relaxed and at ease, with the composure of a winner.

"As soon as I saw the beginning of the first episode, I knew this show would be a good one, and the result was just as I expected. Chen did a great job."

"After watching the beginning, did you think this play was a good one?"

"Of course, from the first episode, the plot was compact, lively and interesting, and the special effects and music were used just right, which was very much in Chen's style. From the perspective of his first time directing, it can be called perfect."

Chen Kaige has completely forgotten how he cursed Xiao Chen in his heart after watching it.

He now sincerely believes that he has been optimistic about Xiao Chen from the very beginning and his confidence in him has never been lost.

"What do you think of the acting performance of the male and female protagonists of "My Love from the Star"?"

"Of course, Xiao Chen's acting skills are no less than those of some middle-aged actors. Liu Qianqian gave me a big surprise this time. She completely broke away from the shackles of her previous roles and performed very well."

"Regarding the bet between you and Wang Shuo, what do you think of this victory?"

Chen Kaige smiled crookedly, "Haha, don't worry about it. We are all friends. We were just joking."

Then don't laugh so exaggeratedly.

The reporter secretly complained in his heart.

Airport VIP waiting room.

"Hey, Sissi."

Chen Linfeng sat down and waved his hand. There was a laptop in front of him and he was reading the comments on the Internet.

Liu Qianqian sat down next to him and rubbed her head against her boyfriend's shoulder. "I don't know why, but I feel like I'm in another world."

Chen Linfeng stroked his girlfriend's hair gently. "Maybe you've been too busy recently? You've participated in a lot of shows and brand events during this period."

"Didn't you say that we should do more business when it's appropriate, so that we can just slack off at other times."

"You're right."

Liu Qianqian said excitedly, "Xiaofeng, you really did change my image as you told me to do. Now many people don't call me a fairy sister anymore."

At this point, she seemed a little puzzled. "There is just one bad thing. Those people started calling me a crazy woman. I am obviously a very ladylike woman in real life."

Chen Linfeng burst out laughing. You have always called yourself that in your previous life, and you always said that you were a "female loser."

But he also understood that it was probably an attempt to save her from being stereotyped by the audience.

"Yes, yes, our Sissi is the most ladylike. Don't worry about what others say."

Liu Qianqian didn't care about this at first. She wanted her image to be more diverse. She said this just to act like a spoiled brat in front of her boyfriend. After the broadcast of "My Love from the Star", she clearly felt that it was different from the previous TV series.

The volume of discussion it has aroused and the additional commercial endorsement invitations are not on the same level.

Of course, what made her happiest was that many people on the Internet finally started to hope that they would be together.

Liu Qianqian hopes that there will be more and more people like this.

At this time, Xiao Chang and Zhang Xin finished their formalities and walked in.

Liu Qianqian straightened up quickly. She was still not used to showing her intimacy with Xiaofeng in front of others.

As agents, Sister Mei and Liu Xiaoli have already gone to Japan and South Korea in advance to negotiate various promotional activities and standards and treatment issues with the local authorities.

At this time, TV stations in Japan and South Korea have already started broadcasting "My Love from the Star".

Japan's broadcasting platform is Fuji TV. They attach the most importance to ratings, so they have the motivation to be more proactive.

The broadcasting platform in South Korea is SBS, which is one of the three major TV stations in South Korea. Its positioning is somewhat similar to Mango TV in China, with a larger young audience.

This time, it was because "My Love from the Star" was positioned as an idol drama that we finally decided to introduce it.

Due to the response caused by the broadcast of "The Great Tang Empire" last year, the male and female protagonists at the time (the younger versions) have already had considerable influence in both countries respectively.

It has only been half a year, and the public's impression has not yet faded.

Therefore, in the early promotion process, it is relatively more likely to arouse the audience's curiosity.

In just two days, the ratings soared because of the novel opening setting and the handsome looks of the male and female protagonists.

It soon reached the ratings level of last year's "The Great Tang Empire".

The number of loyal fans attracted is incomparable. Modern urban dramas are too easy for the audience to empathize with the characters.

Especially the setting of a top beauty superstar like An Xi, and a handsome, talented and wealthy Professor Chen, are the easiest to satisfy the fantasies of young boys and girls.

When Chen Linfeng, Liu Qianqian and others got off the plane, a large number of fans from Japan were waiting outside the airport.

The moment the two of them appeared.

The entire airport seemed to be roaring.

"Ahhhh, Teacher Qilin, come and look here!"

"Professor Chen, I love you!"

"I want to give you a baby!"

"Anxi, it's Anxi, Anxi you are so beautiful."

"..."

As the crowd continued to surge forward, the security personnel maintaining order were about to be unable to hold on.

Chen Linfeng quickly reached out to stop the fans in front from rushing forward, and shouted at the same time.

"Don't crowd, it could be dangerous."

But the crazy fans couldn’t hear what their idol was saying at all. They just felt that Teacher Qilin was so handsome and he was looking at them.

The fans in the front row rushed forward even more excitedly.

There was no choice, Chen Linfeng could only pull Liu Qianqian and leave the airport quickly under the protection of a group of bodyguards.

Even after getting on the car, there were still a large number of fans surrounding the car, not wanting to see their idol go like this.

The vehicle slowly moved forward for about half a kilometer before it gradually got rid of the crowd and was able to speed up.

Liu Qianqian held Chen Linfeng's hand in shock.

She was really scared. She had never seen such a scene before.

Hotel entrance.

Yamada, the person in charge of the reception at Fuji TV, bowed and apologized with sweat all over his forehead.

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Chen, we didn't leak your flight information to anyone. This was a spontaneous gathering of fans. We are really sorry to have disturbed you two."

Chen Linfeng waved his hand unhappily, "Just this once. If it happens again, I will not cooperate with your TV station again."

Yamada wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your generosity."

At the same time, he apologized to Liu Qianqian again, but this time he felt much more relaxed.

It was true that Yamada was worried about offending Chen Linfeng. After all, Mr. Qilin’s reputation in Japan was well-known.

The status of writers is too high, and now they have such a huge influence.

If Mr. Qilin expressed dissatisfaction with his work during the interview with the reporter, he might really lose his job.

But Liu Qianqian is different. Although verified by Fuji TV, she is not the idol with the lowest status, but an actor with several classic works.

But actors are obviously no match for bigwigs like writers, screenwriters, and directors.

As a TV station, they generally don’t care much about the actors.

But after all, it’s just a small life, and the surface work is done very well.

Although Liu Qianqian didn't understand what the guy in front of her was saying, she could guess what he was saying by looking at his apologetic expression.

She looked at Xiaofeng for help.

How should I reply?
Chen Linfeng helped Xixi to reply, "This Ms. Liu Xixi is my good friend for many years. We were classmates in college and have a very good relationship. I hope you will be more attentive in the subsequent reception. Since this is the first time, I will not pursue it."

It turns out that he is Teacher Qilin’s long-time friend.

Yamada's expression became more serious, and he lowered his head and replied, "Yes, I understand. Thank you again for your forgiveness."

This is how the promotional journey in Neon began.

Fuji TV paid enough attention to the arrangements for the two of them.

During the show, several Japanese actors are often invited to join the show.

There is no need to worry about the Japanese actors' ability to flatter.

The character An Xi, played by Liu Xixi, was praised to the highest degree.

Whether it is acting skills or appearance, they are all once in a thousand years. Of course, this is what the Japanese media reported.

After listening to the words translated by Chen Linfeng, Xixi often looks incredulous, which makes her look very cute and has attracted a lot of fans.

When facing Teacher Qilin, these actors expressed their respect and admiration from the bottom of their hearts.

The posture is very low.

Some female stars often blush when they see Chen Linfeng, and then his identity is revealed.

OK, another fan of Teacher Qilin.
