Chapter 34: The Rise of Jiayi

If "Bao Qingtian" is the creation of traditional costume dramas, then "Step by Step" is a subversion of all current film and television dramas.

The two dramas broadcast by Jiayi TV station pinned all the hopes of everyone in Jiayi led by Liang Shuyi, and they couldn't afford to lose, so the filming of these two TV series, whether it was costumes, props or actors, was carefully selected after repeated consideration, and a lot of manpower and material resources were spent, and the average cost of each episode of the first few episodes reached 25,000 Hong Kong dollars.

The two cross-era dramas really did not disappoint them, and the ratings of "Bao Qingtian", which people in Xiangjiang talked about, have been stable since the day of broadcasting, and the ratings of "Step by Step", which detonated the whole of Asia, have beaten all the princes, and the ratings have not been lower than 90 since the first episode.

Although "Step by Step" still shows the dangerous and tumultuous court struggle when the nine sons of Kangxi seized the throne, it uses time travel as an introduction to re-interpret the famous story of the nine kings in the Kangxi period in history, and adds more modern elements. In addition to starring Lin Qingxia, who has super popularity, the play also gathers Zheng Shaoqiu, Huang Yuanshen, Zhou Yanfa, Liu Songren, Ren Dahua, Lu Liangwei, Wan Ziliang, Zhao Yazhi, Chen Yulian, Huang Xingxiu, Ouyang Peishan, Wen Yuer and other handsome men and beauties at the moment. "Step by Step" is very rigorous in terms of plot and production. In order to film this drama well, Liang Shuyi specially hired a professor from the Department of History of the University of Hong Kong as an off-site guide. The emotional line in the play is rich, and the plot is twists and turns, but it does not joke about history. In terms of production, Jiayi not only specially made a batch of exquisite costumes for the characters in the play, but also hired a Qing history researcher from the Palace Museum in mainland China to teach all the participants the Qing court etiquette, which makes the whole play look more in line with history, and the characters in the play are more distinct and rigorous.

Two dramas are two star-making machines. "Bao Qingtian" made Jin Chao's skirt popular and made Zhang Guorong's acting career go further; "Step by Step" made the actors in the play famous, and several leading actors even reached the sky.

Lin Qingxia has become popular all over Asia because of "Rain of Swords", and after playing Maltai Ruoxi, Lin Qingxia will play the heroine Maltai Ruoxi's sense of the times full of staggered time and space, independent, thoughtful, visionary, good at observing people's eyebrows, smart and eye-catching, will weigh the benefits and disadvantages, be thoughtful, calm, both rational and emotional, value friendship, and emphasize righteousness. Through this role, Lin Qingxia has become a goddess in everyone's minds.

Huang Yuanshen's interpretation of Aixin Jueluo Yinyu is as warm as jade. There is a romantic impulse for love, infatuation, but still not hostile to the desire for power. wanted to get Ruolan but got Ruolan's lifelong resentment, wanted to get Ruoxi but was given up by Ruoxi after getting it, and when he knew who he wanted, he lost his selfless true love of Chang Fujin. Decades have passed, empty-handed, but it is just a mirror. When the Lori aunts in front of the TV saw his ending, they hugged their heads and cried in distress. In addition, it may be that Huang Yuanshen is an amorous seed, or he used too many experiential ways to interpret the characters in the play, but he was supposed to entangle Zhao Yazhi in the original time and space, but this time he moved his mind to Lin Qingxia and began to pursue Lin Qingxia frantically.

To say that the person who benefited the most from "Step by Step" was Zhou Yanfa, who played Aixin Jueluo Yinzhen calmly and introverted, with a deep mind and a fiery heart, but would rather hide behind a cold face. I like quiet things, enjoy solitude, don't trust people and accept people easily, and once I accept them, I will always keep them in my heart to guard, whether it is for my brother or my lover. At the same time, he has the coldness and reality that an emperor should have, and he also has a natural desire for country and power. The incisive acting skills and the tall and handsome appearance made women of all ages in Xiangjiang crazy infatuated with him. Therefore, Zhou Yunfa and Zhang Guorong are also known as DreamWorks "Double Beauty"!

The popularity of the two TV series made Jiayi a beautiful turnaround, and also made the TV station full of hope for the company and more enthusiastic about work. A week after the two TV series were broadcast, the well-crafted "Xiangjiang Idol" also began to be broadcast on Jiayi Entertainment Channel.

"Xiangjiang Idol" was planned by Wang Jie by copying the original time and space "American Idol", stipulating that the contestants must be Xiangjiang citizens and have the qualifications to work and live in Xiangjiang.

Participants are open to participants regardless of gender, age, or job, but participants under the age of 18 must obtain parental permission to participate. The information filled in must be true and valid, and the program team will conduct a special verification, and if it is found that the false information is filled, it will be disqualified.

In order to start this variety show, Jiayi spent a high price to invite Huang Zhan, Deng Lijun, Xu Guanjie, and Feng Feifei as the judges and mentors of the first issue, and the host of the show also sent Mary Zhang and Mao Shunjun to partner.

The novelty of the program, the grassroots candidacy, and the creation of entertainment have aroused heated discussions in the entire Xiangjiang society as soon as it was broadcast.

Although the popularity of Jiayi's series of programs has made the competition of Heung Kong TV more intense, it has also invisibly promoted the development of Heung Kong TV industry, which has taken a solid step for Heung Kong to become an entertainment center in Asia in the future.
