This man knows how to hype

Chapter 287 The hottest "Storm"

"Storm" was still playing on the TV screen in Qi Xiangyang's house.

Neither he nor Song Limin had any desire to flirt at this moment. They both stared at the TV in silence, their expressions full of solemnity.

However, perhaps even they themselves did not realize that they were not always in a solemn state.

While watching the drama, the two were often unconsciously carried away by the plot.

This actually means that they have already watched it. And they have watched the plot from the perspective of an audience.

Time passed minute by minute, and at the end of the fourth episode, Gao Qiqiang ran to the nearby woods to urinate, and something went wrong with Xu Lei who was electrofishing in the fish pond.

The ending music begins to play.

Song Limin also raised her question instinctively: "Ah, that's it?"

As soon as these words came out, she immediately realized that something was wrong.

Damn, what am I talking about?
Logically, I should have said, "It was so boring that I fell asleep in front of the TV after watching four episodes."

Thinking of this, she immediately glanced to the left, secretly observing Qi Xiangyang's reaction.

Coincidentally, Qi Xiangyang's eyes just happened to glance over here.

The two of them stared at each other sideways for some unknown reason.

Perhaps because it seemed a little awkward, Song Limin coughed lightly and said, "Ahem... this drama is just so-so."

After saying this, Qi Xiangyang shook his head and frowned, saying, "This time I really miscalculated."

After saying that, he didn't say anything else, but took out his mobile phone and started looking at topics related to "Knives Out" on various platforms.

I don't know if I don't see it, I'm startled when I see it.

You should know that "Thirty Years Old in Pengcheng" and "Songs in the Qin Palace" are also being updated today.

Moreover, before "Kuang Bi" was launched, the top five entertainment hot search lists on various platforms were basically occupied by these two dramas.

But now "Kuangchuan" has squeezed in directly. Not only has it squeezed in, but the top three are all about "Kuangchuan".

#狂飙首播#, popularity 1935.37 million

#安欣高启强#, popularity 1921.66 million

#张文妍’s acting skills are explosive#, with 1901.39 million views.

Ranked fourth is the hot search term "Songs in the Qin Palace". This term is quite outrageous, called #嫪毐赵姬首遇发糖我了#, with a popularity of 1723.69 million.

As for the fifth one, it is still about the topic related to "Storm".

It is called #Will An Xin be assimilated into the Beijing-Hai officialdom? #, with 1618.5 million views.

The reason why this hot search occurred.

Naturally, it is because Xu Xiyu made some changes to An Xin's story line. Through the expression of camera language, fine-tuning of the plot and addition of background, his character and growth line were strengthened.

Gao Qiqiang's role is 99% faithful to the original, with just one scene added after paying homage to Uncle Tai.

Of course, Qi Xiangyang naturally didn't know these things.

He only knew that, judging from the first four episodes, the dual male lead storyline of "Kuang Biu" was done very well. Gao Qiqiang's character was slightly stronger, but An Xin's was equally outstanding.

Even the sixth most searched term at this moment is #白月光孟煜#.

It wasn’t until the seventh one that I saw a topic about “Pengcheng Turns Thirty”.

This result made Qi Xiangyang feel depressed again. He didn't even dare to think about how badly he would be slapped in the face if "Kuang Biao" also won the first place after the ratings came out.

I am different from Guangying. If the data of "Song of the Qin Palace" on their side cannot compete with "Kuangbi", it will actually have little impact on Guangying.

But for Dong Hai, it’s not the same case. He has to suppress Hua Qing in all aspects.

Otherwise, his actions of poaching, plagiarizing, and other acts to target Hua Qing would all become a joke.

It doesn’t really matter if you’re laughed at. Are people in the entertainment industry afraid of being laughed at?

The real problem is that this joke will affect internal and external confidence and views on Donghai and himself as the chairman, which is the most fatal thing.

Thinking of this, Qi Xiangyang hurriedly flipped through the secondary creation videos related to "Kuang Biao".

After all, the popularity of hot searches can be bought, and it doesn’t cost too much.

However, it is difficult to control whether there are many secondary creations or whether the secondary creation videos are popular.

Anyway, judging from the current situation, the secondary creation of film and television is either highly popular for interpreting the big hit dramas, or highly popular for complaining about the bad dramas.

To know whether a drama is popular or not, just look at the bloggers in the film and television section and see whether they have organized any team building activities.

Of course, "Kuang Biao" had just been aired, and Qi Xiangyang estimated that he would not be able to find any high-quality secondary creations because the time was too short.

But he never expected that reality would give him another blow.

There was only one video titled [September's drama king is expected to be released in 9 minutes, interpreting the first two episodes of "Kuaishu"], which was clearly listed on the hot list of Station D.

Not only that, the number of views has reached more than 79, with 825 comments and more than 700 comments in the comment section. The release time of this video is shown as one hour ago.

This data is obtained in just one hour, which shows how enthusiastic the audience is.

"Fuck it." Qi Xiangyang couldn't help but curse, and then threw the phone away.

After thinking for a while, he turned to Song Limin and said, "Well, go find Xiaofeng tonight."

"Looking for Xiaofeng?" Song Liming was a little confused.

Xiaofeng is Qi Xiangyang's son Qi Linfeng, and one of the male protagonists of "Pengcheng 30 Years Old". He and Song Limin are a pair of sister-brother love CP in the play. "Yes, stir up a CP scandal, just as additional publicity."

"Oh, OK, fine. I'll go right away." Song Liming answered a little hesitantly. After all, she had just been chatting with Qi Xiangyang here.

Turning around and creating a scandal with his son, this change is really a bit...tsk, I don't know how to describe it.

But as an actor, cooperating with publicity is my job.

Moreover, she didn't want her first drama since coming to Donghai to be overshadowed by Hua Qing's project.

So, after answering, she stood up from the sofa and took two steps forward when she suddenly felt her hand being grabbed. Then she lost her balance and fell into Qi Xiangyang's arms.

Then, she heard Qi Xiangyang's voice again: "Wait a minute, finish your work first."

The red skirt flutters, the white waves tremble, and the sound of singing surrounds the ears.

Three minutes later, Song Limin, who hadn't yet figured out the taste, quickly walked to the bathroom to wash up.

Qi Xiangyang sat on the sofa and smoked.

As the sage was awake, more thoughts rose up along with the blue and white smoke.

After Song Liming fetched some water and helped him clean up, Qi Xiangyang started making phone calls to arrange things.

At the same time, Zhou Xixiong, the director of "Song of the Qin Palace", has already started inquiring about the ratings of "Kuang Biao".

That’s right, ratings statistics are divided into two types: real-time statistics and post-statistics.

Generally speaking, there will be some differences between these two data, but thanks to the current level of technology, the error will not be too large.

It is worth mentioning that unlike the four episodes premiered on the Internet, CCTV broadcasts two episodes every day, so the ratings counted are naturally for the first two episodes.

"Has the ratings reached 1.6%?" Zhou Xixiong asked this because the current ratings of "Song of the Qin Palace" are around 1.5%.

On Blue Star, the ratings of most dramas are generally in the low 2s. If it is above , it is considered a good ratings, and if it exceeds , it is a sure hit.

"It must have arrived." The person from CCTV laughed.

Hearing this, Zhou Xixiong didn't know what expression to make.

He had just finished watching the first four episodes in full. After watching them, he knew that he had really met his match this time. He had really underestimated Xu Xiyu's pioneering work in Huaqing.

If nothing unexpected happens, "Storm" will definitely be a hit.

Then he went to check out the trending searches and found that it was indeed the case. It really went viral.

But he was still a little unwilling, so he asked about the ratings.

After hearing the answer from CCTV, he asked curiously, "What about 1.60?"

"Tsk, if it's 1.6, does it have to be something like 1.6? Can't you guess higher?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Xixiong's mouth twitched, and he gritted his teeth and reported a number: "Could it be more than 1.8?"

"Guess again."

"Don't tell me it's broken 2."

“It’s indeed broken 2.”

"..." Zhou Xixiong was speechless. His heart was finally at peace. After a long pause, he continued to ask, "How much is it over the limit? 2.03, or 2.06?"

"That's uncertain. We'll announce the news tomorrow once the accurate audience ratings are counted. OK, Director Zhou, I'm hanging up. I have other things to do." The CCTV person said and hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone coming from the other end of the phone, Zhou Xixiong was stunned holding the phone.

It took him a long while to react and he called the producer. As soon as the call was connected, he immediately said, "The ratings of "Crazy" have exceeded 2."

"How much?" The producer was almost asleep, but he instantly perked up when he heard this.

“It’s broken 2.”

"What time is two?"

"I don't know about that. We have to wait until tomorrow afternoon for accurate information."

"What the hell? Is it that intense? The ratings have already exceeded 2 in the first two episodes. Is Hua Qing on stimulants?"

"I'm wondering if we should follow up here, otherwise I'm afraid they will steal too much attention."

"How?"

"Add more episodes. Talk to the platform about adding two more episodes tomorrow. It just so happens that our show will enter its first climax after four episodes."

As soon as Zhou Xixiong finished speaking, the official Weibo account of "Pengcheng Thirty Years Old" and Youdou Video jointly released an announcement on the Internet.

Tomorrow "Pengcheng Turns Thirty" will have 2 more episodes.

Obviously, Qi Xiangyang and Zhou Xixiong thought the same thing.

Nothing happened that night, and the next morning, "Songs in the Qin Palace" officially announced the news of more episodes.

Xu Xiyu, who had a good sleep, naturally knew about this, but he did not feel any wavering in his heart.

Because in the fifth and sixth episodes of "The Rush", there is a particularly outstanding character coming up.

This character is Xu Jiang, who has countless famous quotes and scenes.

　Thanks to Praise the Fool and Qi Xia for the reward
