Chapter 184: A Drama Like No Other

Comprehensive Entertainment Channel, "101 Marriage Proposals", is a TV series that is only broadcast in Beilin Province, and there is no comment on traditional media outside Beilin Province.

However, there are many voices on the Internet that seek resources and recordings from outside Beilin Province, but he has no way to become the mainstream.

The real mainstream is still in the province of North Forest.

After the comprehensive entertainment channel was upgraded to a provincial TV station, the ratings have begun to gradually stabilize, and the local market share, although the figure of 30% is not high, has always had a good growth rate, and it is not difficult to challenge the provincial TV station over time.

But after the final ratings came out that day, "101 Proposals" was clearly in a trough on the local share chart.

The share of the early 20% is very average, especially compared to their usual share of more than 30%, although the share of the comprehensive entertainment channel has been rising in the broadcast of dramas, but that is from 20% The share has finally increased to about 24%, unless it is a super long program, it is difficult to have a huge impact on the increase in ratings during the broadcast of the program.

The ratings of the first episode are not ideal, as for the reaction after the broadcast, it is quite good, many viewers are very curious about the plot of this show, judging from the first episode, the ugly man Sun Maofeng wants to chase the super beauty Meng Xiang as his wife, it is difficult to reach the sky, Meng Xiang is so beautiful and kind, and he is full of affection for his former love, and although Huang Da played by Sun Maofeng is a little ugly and no longer young in age, he works hard, has a simple and honest personality, and can make Meng Xiang laugh, from these aspects, Sun Maofeng and Meng Xiang's pairing is also okay。

The audience thinks it's okay, but there is such a world-apart gap in the series, and such a gap makes the audience look forward to the future of the protagonists.

Just like Wen Jia said, this is a different Japanese drama, many viewers are full of complaints after watching the first episode, the style is not right with what they are used to, the amount of information is too much, it is a little tiring to watch, there is only one episode a week, it is not pleasant to watch, it seems that everyone is full of dissatisfaction with this drama.

This kind of voice excites those who are looking forward to him making a fool of himself, especially in the TV circle, many people in the TV circle have said: "TV series are not so easy to shoot, if you think that you can invest some money and use your three-legged cat's shooting skills to make a good TV series, it is a dream, have you really watched TV series seriously, do you know what TV series are like?"

As soon as this voice came out, Fan Cheng didn't say anything here, and the audience stopped doing it first.

A lot of TV people realized that they seemed to be mistaken.

That's right, the audience has a lot of disgusting things to say, but look at these voices: the style is different from the habit, it's a little tiring to watch, and it's unpleasant to watch too little......

Although these voices are all saying that "101 Proposals" is not good, none of these voices are saying that "101 Proposals" is not good!

Everyone's dislike is basically focused on the fact that the work is completely different from what everyone is used to, as for the quality of the TV series itself?

It's pretty! Of course it's pretty!

Moreover, the effect of the TV series is simply unexpected!

What would a Chinese TV drama producer be like if he wanted to shoot an emotional scene for a character around forty years old?

Before watching Fan Cheng's drama, many viewers had their own speculation about this, born in the 60s, a generation that grew up in suffering, in their twenties, or had a failed marriage, or their spouse lost their lives because of the construction of the country, and they shouted hard work over the years, feeding their children with a handful of and urine, but now they want to fall in love and get married, but they encounter opposition from their families, resistance from their children, and even harassment from their ex-husbands, and resistance from their ex-wife's family......

Everyone has seen a lot of works like this, and it is precisely because of these works that the audience has a lot of criticism about the description of Fan Cheng's original works.

In everyone's opinion, we have seen a lot of this kind of work, and what new ideas can you shoot as a man in his early twenties.

But after actually watching the first episode, everyone found that it was not like this at all!

There is no failed marriage, no hardship, no and a handful of urine, there is just a very fashionable way of shooting, quite relaxed and humorous plot advancement, and a very positive description of feelings!

These things are very strange to the audience!

Not to mention forty-year-old love, even twenty-year-old love, everyone has never seen this kind of shooting before!

This kind of fashionable, in fact, very young, very energetic shooting method, is used on the forty-year-old protagonist but there is no sense of disobedience, the performance of the two protagonists is not at all middle-aged but full of vitality, such a forty-year-old, in fact, everyone also hopes that they can do it.

The so-called idol drama model has not yet been born in this world, so the audience does not know that even if the age is forty years old, this drama still uses the shooting method of idol dramas, relaxed, fast-paced, and fashionable, which is the core of this drama and not the age of the two actors.

Hearing these voices from the audience, many TV people who actually haven't watched Fan Cheng's works at all went back and watched the TV series seriously, they used to think that Fan Cheng's works didn't need to be watched at all, anyway, it's just a small variety show producer, no matter how good he mixes, it's just in his own circle, except for this circle, no one believes how good he can really do, until Fan Cheng's works began to be evaluated by the audience as very good-looking, and these producers finally began to pay attention to it.

This look, everyone finally found the difference.

This kind of young and fashionable shooting method is also available in Europe and the United States as a youth film, and the directors of Chinese TV dramas have been planning to try recently, but this kind of attempt, to really become the so-called "idol drama" is still a little hot, the directors have not yet grasped the essence of this kind of work, originally let the directors slowly explore, and can also summarize the so-called Chinese characteristics, Oriental characteristics of youth idol dramas, but Fan Cheng broke this attempt to slowly grope and directly came up with the "finished product"!

Some producers in the TV drama circle were not convinced, they said: "Fan Cheng's works are somewhat new, but forty-year-old love is not like this, these things he shoots are very hypocritical, there is no life, everyone should not like this kind of work." ”

What do you say...... There seems to be a little truth, for Huaxia in this era, those common middle-aged love routines seem to be the truth of life, the opposition of family members, the resistance of children, and the mid-life crisis that time is not waiting, it seems that these are the correct answers.

But just after people on TV said such things, it was rare for Fan Cheng to speak up.

In an interview, he said: "What is life, the so-called art, doesn't it all mean that it comes from life and is higher than life? I watched those traditional TV dramas when I was a child, but when I grew up, I found that those TV series I hated the most."

In those TV dramas when I was a child, I always said that it was not good for a woman to remarry, that children would be beaten by her mother's remarried husband, that the children of the concubine would be disliked by the main wife, and that they would live like a subordinate at home, which is the most memory of this kind of work when I was a child.

I'm also the child of my father's concubine, so after watching too many of this kind of works when I was a child, I always worried that I would be treated like this, and even hated my father for it, but when I grew up, I realized that in fact, the situation on TV is not all, although there will always be some stumbles in the family, but on the whole it is still very harmonious, and at that time I thought, why do middle-aged people's feelings have to have those routines? Why can't middle-aged people treat their feelings freely and casually like young people, but must shoot the feeling of bitterness and hatred?"

Fan Cheng's words silenced the TV people.

Yes, Fan Cheng's works originate from life but are higher than life, you can say that he has no life, but who stipulates that the most down-to-earth works must be good works?

The audience also said: "Fan Cheng describes very little middle-aged life, but less does not mean nothing, not to mention, although this kind of middle-aged life is rare, but this is the middle-aged life we all want, Huang Da and Ye Xun, everything they show is exactly what we expect to see, so we will like this drama!"

Yes, I like it, although there are many dislikes, although one episode a week makes people scratch their hearts, and I can't wait to go to the entertainment channel immediately to find out the rest to watch, but everyone undoubtedly likes this show.

Even not only middle-aged people like it, but young people also like it, because although this drama is the protagonist of middle-aged people, the tone of the whole drama is very young, and there are not only two middle-aged love lines in the drama, but also the route of Fan Cheng and two young actors Yao Jing and Qin Ruoxue, these are very good-looking!

A week passed quickly, and it was another Monday, and the second episode of "101 Proposals" was staged.

The silly Sun Maofeng continued his silly love.

In the second episode, Sun Maofeng continued to attack Meng Xiang, but he was extremely disappointed because he made a fool of himself at a gathering of people in the music industry, such a plot made the audience worry about whether the two could come together again, obviously at the end of the first episode, the audience had already ignited some expectations, but in the second episode, the hateful director extinguished this expectation with his own hands.

The entire first half of "101 Marriage Proposals" walks through this kind of constant hope and repeated extinguishment full of malice.

Every Monday at nine o'clock in the evening, the forty-five-minute episode and the one-hour broadcast time passed in the audience's constant "only one episode" and "not enjoyable to watch".

Episode 3, Episode 4...... Fan Cheng and the crew worked hard every day, and when their filming entered the tenth episode, when the series was about to end, the broadcast of "101 Marriage Proposals" on TV also came to the sixth episode.

The doubts that just aired in the first episode have gradually disappeared, look at the ratings, the local market share in Beilin Province, the share of the first episode in the early 20%, and the second episode has climbed to 25%, and after the second episode of the hope is shattered again, the audience has greater expectations for the third episode, and directly pulls the share of the third episode to 40% of the exaggerated level!

Then after the fourth episode, the share of 44% increased slightly, and by the fifth episode, the share has come to 52%!

More than half of the market share also means that in Yangji, more than half of the users who watch Yangji's local TV stations at the same time are watching the entertainment channel!

All other local TV stations in Yangji do not have a variety entertainment channel combined, and the ratings of one are higher!

Even the local ratings, more than 10% of the local ratings, have surpassed CCTV and dominate in Beilin Province!

The local share is the highest, the provincial TV station has the highest ratings, and surpasses CCTV, although this is only a provincial ratings statistics, but the first self-made TV series of the comprehensive entertainment channel easily triple-jumped halfway through the broadcast, and successfully got the top ratings share they can get in the ratings!

This is something that almost everyone didn't expect and didn't dare to think about before the TV series started!

Then, the sixth episode began. Before this episode, the protagonists Huang Da and Ye Xun had been "tossing" for five episodes, and Huang Da's clumsy but serious pursuit made Ye Xun hesitate and struggle, because although she felt that Huang Da was a good person and gradually liked him, she knew that she still couldn't forget her former fiancé, and he still had something more painful for her.

The departure of her fiancé before the wedding made her worry all the time, worried that if Huang Da was like this, she would not be able to stand it, worried that she was an unfortunate woman, and it was she who caused the departure of her fiancé, although Huang Da scoffed at this worry, but Ye Xun's heart has never been able to get over this hurdle.

This hurdle in Ye Xun's heart has also become a hurdle in the hearts of the audience, and it has become the plot that the audience is most concerned about at this time.

Heart disease is the most difficult to treat, and how Huang Da overcame Ye Xun's psychological barrier has become the biggest suspense in the series.

Originally, according to the habits of the audience in this era, this so-called biggest suspense should be nearing the end of the episode by the time it is punctured, that is, it is not until at least the eleventh episode that Huang Da may really touch this part.

But what he didn't expect was that Fan Cheng was not prepared to save this suspense to the end at all.

As a TV series with a tight plot and a huge amount of "information" as the selling point, in the sixth episode, it is actually the best time to uncover this suspense.

Before the sixth episode, the atmosphere needed to be created, and the time was not ripe enough, and after the sixth episode, it was already procrastinating for this kind of drama, so in the eyes of viewers who had no experience in watching this kind of drama at all, the sixth episode, a turning point for the gods, appeared.

On the street late at night, Meng Xiang cried bitterly and told Sun Maofeng the reason why she was difficult to accept him, she was worried that he would leave her like her fiancé, she was worried that she was the unfortunate person, so she would protect herself like a turtle and refuse fate and possibility again and again.

Then, the stupid, somewhat ugly Sun Maofeng made a move that surprised the audience in front of the TV and even shouted out in fright. [.]
