When it was broadcast to 29 episodes and 30 episodes, the average ratings of the night finally broke 4. Since then, it has also become the first TV series in two years to break 4 in ratings.

The 31 episodes and 32 episodes of the next day were raised to 4.136 again......

Its potential, it seems, never ends.

While many TV people and media people were dumbfounded, they couldn't help but secretly speculate that this drama would become another ratings drama that broke 5 after Mr. You Zichang's "Dynasty" four years ago? !

"Dynasty" is the most successful historical imperial drama of "the first emperor" You Zichang, and it is also one of his masterpieces.

There are not only him in that drama, but also several treasure-level old artists, old drama bones, and a group of old demons playing on the same stage, which is really sparkling and wonderful. In addition, the directors and screenwriters at that time were all leading figures in historical dramas in the industry, and they were adapted from the original novels of historical masters, with solid scripts and rich materials.

So at that time, when it was neither a summer file nor a Spring Festival file, it was a series of ratings miracles, and finally ended perfectly with a score of breaking 5 for two consecutive days!!

This drama not only received rave reviews, but it is also the highest-rated drama by You Zichang so far, with an average rating of 3.4!

And now, looking at the surging posture in front of him, "Ping's Trace" is going crazy to the end and follow in the footsteps of the drama of "Dynasty"? !

At all costs. Breaking 5, this is an incredible thing to think about.

Because the ratings are different from the market share, the ratings want to increase the absolute number. It's hard, it's hard!

Skip the complicated examples, let's take the simplest example. Let's say there are 10,000 televisions in the country. 10000 is the total number of machines.

One day, a certain TV station declared: Our station's midnight stall has a market share of 12.5! Damn, I'm scared to death at first glance!

But how many people are still watching TV after midnight? Up to 1,000 of those 10,000 TVs are on, so 1,000 times 12.5% is 125. There are 125 televisions playing this station.

The other TV station is more low-key: the ratings of our midnight file are only 5.

Compared with the previous TV station, it doesn't sound like a good thing, but if you calculate carefully, the total number of 10,000 times 5%. That's 500 units.

Among the 1000 open TVs, there are 500 TVs playing this station, and if you change the market share, it is 50, which is many times higher than the awesome TV station in front of you!

Therefore, the viewership share is just a trend for TV stations to judge their own TV stations, and it has nothing to do with actual interests. Ratings are the most important and the most difficult to boost, because it represents the absolute number of views, and it is most useful for TV stations and for businessmen who advertise.

Imagine this. If the total number of machines in the above example is increased to 10 million or 100 million, then the ratings will increase by 0.001 percentage points, let alone 1 percentage point. How many more TVs do I need to turn on?!

The ratings of 5 points mean that when it is broadcast, within the statistical scope of Furui Company, there are tens of millions of nearly 100 million TVs across the country, whether you turn it on or not, whether there is electricity at home, whether there is anyone or not, 1 out of every 20 is watching this show!

In light of this. Nanguo Satellite TV has also already begun, using various platform resources in its hands to build momentum. Prepare for the birth of the highest-rated drama since the opening of your TV station.

As a matter of fact. As a new station that has been open for less than 15 years after the integration of resources, breaking 4 is already the best achievement in history. But for Nanguo Satellite TV, which has deep pockets and lofty ambitions, our goal is the sea of stars, and there is no popular drama with more than 4.5 on the town, how can we compete with the "Five Tigers of First-line Satellite TV" in front of us? !

And in the next two days, the strong watches of 4.366 and 4.575 seem to indicate that a sensational event is about to happen!

By the time of episodes 37 and 38, the ratings came to 4.729. This time, even in the second half of the broadcast of "Ping's Trace", while counting the tickets sent to the door by advertisers, Nanguo Satellite TV, which desperately took a deep breath to maintain calm and calm, finally couldn't calm down anymore.

Then it was Friday, and a very serious question was put in front of us: should we continue to broadcast the variety show "Starry Tonight" with ratings above 1.6 all year round according to the habit, or should we be flexible and strike while the iron is hot, and push "Ping's Trace" to the throne of breaking 5 dramas in one go? !

Regarding this matter, after the rating of 4.749 came out on Thursday night, it is said that Nanguo Satellite TV held a meeting to discuss it until 2 o'clock in the morning, and finally decided:

"Tonight's Starlight" is removed!"The Shadow of Ping" ends on Friday!!

Under the watchful eye, "The Shadow of Ping" ushered in the finale on Friday night, and the real-time hot words have jumped to the first place since the afternoon. And in the end, it lived up to expectations and got a super high rating of 4.961, which is slightly regrettable and did not break 5.

And this controversial decision of Nanguo Satellite TV has also caused controversy, analysis, and even questioning in the entire TV industry for a long time to come.

Those who oppose it feel that this is the biggest failure. Because Friday night prime time is the time of the week with the highest number of TV turns on and the largest number of viewers, but the competition is too fierce. You let a TV series that has only been on the air for less than four weeks confront a hit variety show that has been running for several years and has a large fixed fan base, and there are still several programs, isn't this looking for death?!

Just be a little patient and wait until Sunday night to definitely break 5!

Those who support it feel that the decision is wise. Because according to the rise of "The Shadow of Ping" in the past few days, it has flattened down slightly. In this case, it is very important to maintain the inertia of the closing momentum. Moreover, there is a large satellite TV series broadcasting on your side in the country, which also represents a unique and special, which in itself gives viewers who are not too interested in variety shows an additional choice, which is definitely very beneficial.

Therefore, if it hadn't been wisely placed on Friday, and then waited until Sunday, according to the previous situation, I am afraid that even 4.85 would not have been broken!

Everyone cited various numbers and cases for analysis, and it was very lively, and even organized a high-standard debate competition for this topic in the Capital University of Communication and Communication!

But no matter what, the biggest winners are "The Shadow of Ping" and those who are closely tied to this show.

In the last two episodes of the finale, Deng Zheng and Jiang Zhipeng still got together to watch it, almost the same lineup as when they first played. When the broadcast ended, everyone was looking forward to it, but they all felt a lot of emotion, and there was a faint reluctance. After all, in the nearly four weeks of the hit broadcast, all the main creators have been like having a dream, and they have gained a lot in terms of acting career and vision.

After the final ratings came out, Jiang Zhipeng was the first to jump up, rushed forward and gave Deng Zheng a big strong hug, patting him on the shoulder.

The seven-foot man, with moist tiger eyes, was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Fan Jia and Li Jin cried with joy, in their acting careers, how many popular dramas of 4.961 can there be!!?!

The relatively honest Ma Yulong killed two bottles of beer in one go, and then laughed loudly: "I know that holding the thighs of Director Jiang and Teacher Jin Liang has meat to eat!

After Vice President Xu Tao was excited, he took out the calculator as soon as possible, moved his finger and buckled it: according to the average rating of 3.01 in front of him, first subtract the benchmark rating of 0.737 in the "gambling agreement", multiply it by 50,000, and then multiply it by 40 episodes...... Am I dripping, how can I make so much money?!Calm down, calm down...... Next, there is the second round of broadcast rights, which is said to have been raised to 1.3 million per episode of the exclusive broadcast rights on the Internet, as well as overseas distribution, audio and video products...... This, how much does this "little bird culture" have to earn from this drama!

Xu Tao didn't drink, but he seemed to be drunk.

Among those present, only Gu Weiyuan, who was basically in a position of irrelevance, was relatively calm, sipping wine excitedly, and was 120 percent sure in his heart that Deng Zheng was the biggest winner!
