Chapter 158 "The War of Money" premiered

No matter how good the publicity is, it can't be more effective than the word-of-mouth of the people, in the Internet, the media is becoming more perfect, and today's developed, what kind of TV series is a good drama, in line with the audience's taste, naturally have their own judgment, well, there is no need for official publicity, the audience will work hard to promote independently.

The dark side of finance has always been a forbidden area for Korean dramas, not to mention the black industry of loan sharks, the inside story of the loan shark industry was once banned from the Korean screen before, and the situation has only been slightly better in recent years, but this theme is still a forbidden area that no one dares to touch!

This is also the reason why this TV series has Kim Tae-hee and Lim Woo-myung's strong joining, and it is still not favored by people, and now on Naver's survey website, more than 65% of people choose "not optimistic", of course, it is worth noting that among these people who are not optimistic, at least half of the choices are "not optimistic, but will choose to pay attention".

At the beginning, SBS and Zhang Taiyo PD also had a dispute about the plot, because Zhang Taiyun edited out the template, "The War of Money" will change the surname of money, and cruelly put those realities that people are unwilling to accept in front of the audience one by one, such as the actor throwing vomit on the face of a colleague who laughed at him, and holding the ring taken from the corpse in his mouth when he went to the merchant to collect debts, which will make people feel "miserable".

This worries SBS, can the audience accept these "heavy-tasted" cruel plots? Especially in South Korea, where the proportion of bad credit exceeds 10%, the people are unimaginably sensitive to words like "usury".

Not only that, because it involves the financial theme of usury, in order to reduce the production cost, the production company tried to bring in a sponsorship fee of 500 million won provided by a loan company for the crew of "War of Money", but the SBS brand operation committee and Jang Tae-yo decided to decline after consultation, so now the salary of the entire crew and the salary of the actors are tight, only about 30%, needless to say, if the ratings are not good, except for big names like Kim Tae-hee, It is basically impossible for others to get the full remaining 70% of the remuneration.

This kind of thing is white, in TV dramas with greater profit and loss risks, the film industry is really normal!

The broadcast time of Korean dramas is 9:55 every night, and the official start is about 10 o'clock, coincidentally, "The War of Money" was put on the first stage of Shuimu dramas! This is the third time that Lin Youming has appeared in the Mizuki Theater on Wednesday and Thursday!

The first two times, "Dream Couple" and "Time of the Wolf and the Dog" both successfully won the ratings in the same period, and "Dream Couple" even won the weekly ratings ranking in the finale, from romantic comedies, black urban dramas, to this social drama about money, although they are all urban, but the span transformation is huge, which also makes many drama critics secretly stunned.

What's more, these three TV series, from beginning to end, are less than a year apart! filmed three TV series in a row in nine months, and this frequency makes people feel unreliable no matter how you look at it.

"Yoo, what do you think our ratings will be?" The second male lead in the play, Shin Dongxu suddenly stabbed Lin Youyang's arm and asked.

Lin You was in a trance, shook his head, and replied in an urn voice, "I don't know." ”

Lin Youmian really doesn't know, in fact, he doesn't have much confidence himself, he has experienced "Time of the Wolf and the Dog" once, he already knows that sometimes, a good script and a good TV series may not necessarily meet the audience's appetite and have good ratings.

What's more, compared to "Time of the Wolf and the Dog", which is still playing on the edge of traditional Korean dramas, "War of Money" can already be regarded as a deviant!

"Guess?" Shin Dong-wook stroked his hair and suggested. He has made guest appearances in several TV series, and even starred in a "Stairway to the Clouds", but unfortunately the response has been minimal, and his fame is not as loud as his nephew in S.M's idol group SJ - Kim Ki-beom.

Lim Woo-myong also found out not long ago that Shin Dong-wook was still Kim Ki-beom's uncle......

Lin Youyang shook his head again, although guessing the premiere ratings is almost an old tradition in the Korean drama crew, but the tight shooting time, the singing and declining of the outside world, and the tense emotions, who in the entire crew still has the spare time to guess what is the painful premiere ratings? .

Kim Tae-hee suddenly came over, grabbed Lin Youyang's arm, and smiled kindly, "Don't worry, there is no reason why such a great script should not succeed." ”

"Maybe......" Lin Youmeng set his eyes on the screen, still holding his mobile phone tightly in his hand. Needless to say, from Han Ye-seok, Son Ye-jin, Kim Hee-cheol, Han Geng to Lee Joon-gi, Lee Byung-hun, etc., to Jeon Bo-lan, Park Hyo-min, Kwon Yoo-ri, Jung so-jung...... Wait, wait, many friends have sent text messages saying that they will definitely pay attention to the premiere, which makes Lin Youmian have an indescribable warmth in his heart.

Except for one Huang Meiying, he hasn't been in touch since he went to S.M that day, but at this time, Lin Youming didn't have time to take care of it, maybe he was too busy with practice, and he chose his surname, he ignored that Quan Yuli had time to see, why didn't Huang Meiying have it, and he didn't even have a text message......

Kim Tae-hee hugged Lin Youyang's arm tightly, a little nervous, used to seeing big winds and waves, but for her, the controversy and the span of transformation of this TV series are definitely the biggest since her debut! I can't help but be nervous, huddled around Lin Youmiao, can make her feel that there is at least one person to carry with her, and relieve the tension in her heart.

Park Jin-hee has a laptop on his knees, fiddling, although Jang Tae-yoo forbids the crew to pay attention to comments and news from the outside world, but they are all about to premiere, these have become side matters, limited by the subject matter, if the premiere of "The War of Money" cannot attract the attention of the audience, there is no chance to redeem it through the follow-up plot. Success or failure in this move, whether it can attract the attention of a group of viewers through the content of the first episode will determine the future trend of "War of Money", whether it will become a TV series with a pioneering surname in the history of Korean dramas, or "what everyone expects" hastily ended dismally, Lim Woo-hyun encountered Waterloo, and Kim Tae-hee was once again awarded the title of "vase", and as a result, it was all within these dozens of minutes!
