Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 138 The audience has a bad feeling

The achievements of the seventh episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker directly made the market boil.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Blackgate’s 5.44% and Cyberpunk Edgewalker’s 5.49% are very close.

But in fact, at this level, it is very difficult to increase the ratings further.

The media acted very quickly at this time, and various articles popped up one after another.

[The seventh episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker once again topped the season in terms of viewership! Black Gate still failed to overtake. 】

[Edgewalker has three episodes left to finish. Can Blackgate complete its revenge in the next three weeks?]

[Su Yan keeps his word. In the seventh week, Edge Walker still ranks first in the ratings! ]

[The plot of Cyberpunk Edgewalker is full of depth and tragic atmosphere! ]

[The show is starting to take shape, will Su Yan still have a tragic ending? 】

[Blackgate lost to Cyberpunk again, is there still a chance for it to come back? 】

[All members of the Black Gate crew have started an offline tour. Can this help the ratings of the Black Gate series reach a new level? 】

Inside the Dimension Film and Television Production Company!
"Won again!"

Su Yan, Shi Peihua, Shen Liqian, Gu Qingyuan, and Shinozaki Yumi gathered together.

After the filming of Edge Walker was finished, Shen Liqian went to Xiaguo to shoot new endorsement advertisements, and some friends in the circle asked Shen Liqian to make guest appearances in some roles.

It was only in the past two days that he found some time, and then he immediately showed up at Su Yan's company to show his presence.
From April to Cyberpunk Edgewalker.

Participating in Su Yan's drama directly made her fame soar in Xia Country.

Several endorsements that she had no chance of getting in the past few years are now actively seeking her out.

Miyazono Kaoru in April.

Rebecca from Edgewalker.

Although the latter is not the female lead, she is the second female lead in a drama with a viewership rating of 5.5%.
Rebecca's help to Shen Liqian's career is no less than that of April Palace Yuanxun.

Coming to Su Yan's company at a time like this to make his presence felt, he is naturally still looking forward to continuing to cooperate with Su Yan.

Of course, Su Yan was also very clear about her thoughts.

But even though it's clear, I don't mind it.

To put it bluntly, the interactions between adults are all about pursuing fame and fortune. On the contrary, he admired Shen Liqian's unconcealed and unhidden character.

Although she is not a member of the company, she has worked with Su Yan in two dramas, and they are friends, so Su Yan would not drive her away.

Come to think of it, I haven't seen her for more than a month.

"Call all the Edgewalker crew members, and have a get-together tonight."

Su Yan was in a good mood. If the seventh episode of Edge Walker could top the ratings, then the eighties, nineties and tenth episodes would be even better.

All the most classic scenes of this drama are collected here.

"Is this an early celebration party?" Shen Liqian asked curiously.

"Of course not." Su Yan said with a smile.

"It's just a simple gathering of the crew members. The real celebration party will have to wait until the tenth episode is over. I will invite reporters and media to come to interview and celebrate Edgewalker's ascent to the top."

"And call the reporters?" Shen Liqian was stunned when she heard that, then she laughed.

"You won't stop until you disgust Akasaka Yoshitoki to death!"

"After all, there are reasons why we can't keep a low profile." Su Yan said with a smile.

At this point, no one present had any doubts that Edge Walker could win the season championship.

They all believe this.

After all, they themselves know how high the quality of the last three episodes of the show is, how explosive the special effects scenes are, and how sensational the plot is.

Lucy really went to the moon and really said those words to David.

David really reached the top of Arasaka Tower!
And Rebecca sauce.

They are all famous scenes.

The only thing that everyone is worried about this drama is that the Xia country audience will not accept the cyberpunk theme in the early stage.

But it has already reached the seventh episode and the ratings have reached 5.49%. Next, it’s time to witness history.

"In early June, the tenth episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker will be broadcast. On July 31st, The Garden of Words will be released nationwide." said Ikumi Shinozaki.

"Speaking of which, our company's work schedule for the first half of the year is very full. But for the second half of the year, there is basically nothing planned. If you, Su Yan, are not planning to release a new work in the second half of the year, I have a suggestion."

"Let's discuss this issue again in a few weeks!" Su Yan interrupted Shinozaki Yumi.

"There will definitely be new works, but I'm not sure if they can be broadcast this year, and there's no spare money in the company's account, so the scripts haven't been written yet."

Su Yan still wanted to wait until Cyberpunk Edgewalker was over and his emotional value had accumulated enough before drawing the lottery.

It’s okay if you draw an average work, and it’s quick to make.

But if I get a chance to produce a special effects drama, I’ll have to spend at least one or two quarters to produce the special effects.

"?" Shen Liqian.

"?" Ikumi Shinozaki.

“?” Gu Qingyuan.

Including Shi Peihua also looked at Su Yan.

What Shinozaki Ikumi said just now was just a casual remark.

Su Yan has been in the industry for two years and has produced five works and one movie. This output is a bit too outrageous.

In addition, if Cyberpunk Edgewalker wins the season championship, there is a high probability that they will win the annual championship this year.

In this case, Su Yan must be extremely careful in producing his next work so as not to ruin his reputation.

The reason why Ikumi Shinozaki said this was that if there was no action in the second half of the year, the company could take over some film and television post-production work from other crews, companies, and TV stations. Not seeking to make money, but at least to cover the basic salary expenses of the employees.

She didn't object to Su Yan being nice to his employees, but she was absolutely against paying employees empty salaries, like taking a half-year break and still getting paid.

That's not starting a company, that's doing charity.

After all, there are about a hundred people, so the expense is not small.

But
Su Yan stated so bluntly that there will be a new work?

Ikumi Shinozaki is really unexpected.

Are you serious?

How fast can you create?
Especially Shen Liqian, looking at Gu Qingyuan's cold expression, she felt itchy in her heart. She envied Gu Qingyuan.

With the role of Lucy, the heroine in the drama Edge Walker, she has become one of the top actresses in Xiaguo's TV dramas.

Compared to Shen Liqian who had to work hard for the past six or seven years to reach her current status, Gu Qingyuan was like a koi fish. She only needed to hold on to Su Yan's thigh and naturally reached this status without thinking about anything.

After all, the 5.49% ratings are there.

No media can question her achievements.

But
If Su Yan has a new drama, she will definitely try her best to fight for the female lead role!

She and Gu Qingyuan had a good relationship during the filming of Life is Strange, but when it comes to her personal development, she definitely won't give in.

Another weekend has arrived.

The eighth episode of Black Gate had a viewership rating of 5.46%. Although it is increasing, the increase has become smaller.

The eighth episode of Namco had a viewership rating of 5.31%, which was basically unchanged from the previous episode.

In fact, everyone in the market can see that the growth trend in the ratings of these two dramas has slowed down.

For the audience, the most noteworthy is always the drama that ranks first in the quarterly ratings.

The longer Edge Walker stays in the first position, the more attention and popularity it will receive, and its ratings will increase much higher than the next two.

Black Gate's ratings growth has indeed shown signs of fatigue.

But Edgewalkers are different.
The average paid viewing volume per episode has increased to 1350 million, and because of its great reputation as the show that has maintained the top ratings so far among the three S-level dramas this quarter, a large number of new viewers are still joining in.

Finally, on Sunday night, the eighth episode of Cyberpunk Edgewalker aired.

This episode connects all the forces in the early stage of the drama together.

The middleman who originally gave Mann's team the mission to capture Tanaka.

Military technology.

Arasaka Corporation
A bunch of forces all appeared.

A conspiracy is brewing against military technology and David.

On the other hand, in this episode, David showed symptoms of cyberpsychosis while performing his mission.

In addition to killing the target person, he also killed an ordinary employee as if he were a monster.

The female employee has a family and children.

Just like David's mother, she died inexplicably at the hands of a cyberpunk who appeared out of nowhere.

This incident brought David to the brink of mental breakdown.

He tried hard to become stronger, not to become the kind of scum who killed his mother in a fight on the street!
Both Rebecca and Lucy noticed that something was wrong with him and that his mental state was beginning to become unstable.

Immunosuppressants could no longer suppress his spirit.

Lucy persuaded him to remove some of his prosthetic parts to relieve his mental illness symptoms.

But David couldn't do it.

[If I say so, I will do it! ]

Do you really think you are special?

The two had a quarrel and were almost on the verge of breaking up.

But in the end, Lucy realized that someone was looking for information about David and her on the Internet again.

She left David temporarily and chose to fight the hacker alone.

At the end of the eighth episode, Lucy was caught in the enemy's trap.

The audience's worst guesses after the seventh episode all came true in the eighth episode.

David developed psychotic symptoms.

Lucy's identity was discovered by Arasaka Corporation and she was successfully captured.

The plot of the entire drama reached its darkest moment in the eighth episode.

That night, something was wrong with Su Yan's fans.

Everyone vaguely sensed something.

Start spraying in advance.

"Su Yan, you old thief, are you going to have another attack?"

"David is the protagonist, can you make him cyberpsychotic?"

"Fuck, guys, I don't dare to watch this. Isn't this drama going to end in tragedy?"

“Will David die like Mann?”

"Does the fate of all cyberpunks mean to become cyberpsychopaths and die? Then what's the point of this show?"

"I don't want to see David and Lucy die! Su Yan, you old bastard, listen to me, in this drama, Lucy and David are going to the moon, and they are going to fulfill their promise! I will never allow you to write them to death!"

"No, the ending of episode 8 makes me feel sick to my stomach!"

"This fragment makes me feel uncomfortable again. Su Yan, you better be kind. This is the first S-level drama in your life, you don't want its reputation to collapse!"

"Su Yan, if you still want to win the quarterly and annual championships, don't do anything fancy. Just arrange a happy ending like the second ending of April. Don't use your brain to fool yourself, okay?"

It can only be said that fans are the most sensitive to the plot of a drama.

As soon as the plot of the eighth episode was revealed, many viewers began to make various comments under Su Yan's account.

However, dramas like Edgewalker have now been fully produced, so there is no possibility of changing the ending.

There wasn’t enough time to create special effects.

But the fans can say whatever they want and curse whatever they want.

After the ratings for the eighth episode of Edge Walker were announced at noon the next day, the Xia country's film and television circles were still in a state of excitement.

5.52%
A new achievement was achieved in just the eighth episode.

It is on par with the highest single-episode ratings of the S-rated drama "Dawn" five years ago.

It can be said that Edgewalker did not break the five-year record.

Now it also holds the record for viewership ratings in Xiaguo for the past five years.

Moreover, if this trend continues.

Won’t this record be broken next week?
