Throughout April, the TV people in China were basically in a state of confusion.

Because of an inexplicable thing, it entered their circle.

In the TV circle in 1994, the ratings have always been the world of some TV series, don't look at the previous four-wheel drive brothers, Pokemon and other cartoons have an amazing influence, but that's just for children, everyone is obviously not interested in such things.

So the four-wheel drive brothers who have reached the peak of these animations only have a 26.2% rating. It's because adults aren't interested in these animations.

On the contrary, this is the golden age of Chinese TV dramas...... At least it is the golden age of ratings, because during this period, there are no movies, variety shows, news programs or anything in China, except for news broadcasts, the rest are also unbearable.

So TV in this era actually belongs to TV dramas, and TV dramas with ratings exceeding 30% abound, not counting TV series that break through 50%, and it is not nothing.

Therefore, Chinese TV series people have always looked down on animation.

It wasn't until they found out that one day in April, a brand new name suddenly entered the top 10 ratings for the year, and as soon as it appeared, it ranked eighth with a rating of 25.2%.

Don't think it's too low, you have to look at what the other 9 TV series on the list have.

Among them, the 10th place is "Addictive"

In 9th place is "White Eyebrows"

In 7th place is "Bloody Battle in the Central Plains"

In 6th place is "Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness"

In fifth place is "Bao Qingtian"

In fourth place is "The Story of the Editorial Department".

No. 3 is "Dream of Red Mansions"

No. 2 is "I Love My Home"

No. 1 is "Journey to the West"

It is worth mentioning that the 3rd Dream of Red Mansions and the 1st Journey to the West are both rebroadcast TV series, the former was released in 1987, and the latter was released in 1986, after seven or eight years of rebroadcasts, these two TV series still occupy the 1st and 3rd positions in the 94 ratings list, which can be called invincible.

In this watery name, a very disobedient name suddenly appeared: "Ultraman Tiga", which is very peculiar.

After watching this TV series curiously, many TV people couldn't help but scold, "What the hell is this?" ”

A monster destroys the city, an Ultraman saves humanity, and then the two sides fight each other, what the hell is this? This is clearly a thing for children, this kind of thing can actually break into the top ten of the rankings, what the hell is this?

"It is estimated that it rushed up for a while, and it will be gone after a while!" There are many TV people who say it conclusively.

Then in mid-April, the ratings directly exceeded 30%, ranking fifth.

And when it was April 20th, the ratings suddenly skyrocketed, climbing directly to 38%, and they actually squeezed into the top three positions, squeezing Dream of Red Mansions down, second only to the two TV series I Love My Home and Journey to the West.

"There's something greasy in this! This is cheating, there must be something wrong with this rating! Some TV people shouted, and then they found out that behind this was actually a TV series produced by Daqian Group, and immediately some people said that this must be the ratings that they spent money to buy.

But CCTV lazily came out and slapped his face and said that these data were all investigated by CCTV himself, and there was no problem.

Well, CCTV's credibility is invincible, and as soon as CCTV speaks, no one will question the issue of ratings.

In fact, another key reason why no one doubts it is because these TV people are surprised to find that among other people around them, they are really addicted to "Ultraman Tiga".

Yes, that's right, not only children, but also adults are addicted to the world of Ultraman Tiga.

Just like Liu Rong, countless adults can't get out of the pit of Ultraman Tiga, and like their own children, they have become loyal fans of Ultraman Tiga.

This was something that could not have happened in a previous life, but in this life, it has happened solidly.

Ultraman Tiga not only frantically attracts the love of young audiences, but adult audiences also fall wildly, and with the word of mouth among adults, the ratings of Ultraman Tiga began to soar at an imaginable speed.

By the time it was May 1st, the ratings directly exceeded 45%, and it actually overwhelmed Journey to the West and I Love My Home, becoming the No. 1 TV series in China.

I heard that the person in charge of the Tangram program was stupid when he learned that one of the cartoons of his program actually overwhelmed the crowd and became the champion of the ratings.

Not only the producer of the Tangram column, but everyone in the circle is in a state of bewilderment, they can't understand whether this children's special drama will become the annual hegemonic TV series in 94, what is wrong with this world?

However, Ultraman Tiga's ratings are still rising, and finally stabilized at around 48%.

In the end, it even developed to the extent of appearing on the news network, although the news broadcast only took less than 10 seconds to broadcast a sentence "Congratulations to our station on the children's program Tangram, the special TV series "Ultraman Tiga" co-produced by China and Japan, has exceeded 48% in ratings, and has achieved the first good result in 94 years!" ”

But this undoubtedly pushed the trend of "Ultraman Tiga" even higher, and this achievement completely made the entire culture and entertainment and media circle have nothing to say.

But silence is not enough, the editor-in-chief of the major media immediately issued an order, asking the reporters under his command to immediately write a draft of "Ultraman Tiga", analyze and report from various angles, and interpret, anyway, now Ultraman Tiga is the biggest hot spot, whoever does not rub the heat is a fool.

Soon, the media began to report on "Ultraman Tiga" from various aspects, and some of them decided to study why "Ultraman Tiga" was so popular, so they surveyed hundreds of adult "Ultraman Tiga" viewers, and then came up with a research report.

According to the research of these media, the reason why adults are so enthusiastic and fond of "Ultraman Tiga" is first of all because of the extremely exquisite special effects of "Ultraman Tiga".

All the news media unanimously admit that the special effects of "Ultraman Tiga" are really exquisite and real, to an unimaginable extent.

Of course, these exquisite and real things can't be fake anymore in 2020, but in the eyes of the audience in 94, these special effects are shocking and real.

The second is the unique sci-fi theme of this TV series, and it is also extremely hardcore sci-fi.

Because of Boss Jia's adaptation, "Ultraman Tiga", which made the sci-fi in the previous life just a little decoration, has become an undoubted sci-fi special effects blockbuster in this era, all kinds of sci-fi scenes, shots, as well as the description of the future maglev bus, traffic three-dimensional city, portable personal terminals, internal implantation of chips, and exoskeleton mecha and other science fantasies, all of which have made Chinese people who have never had any sci-fi experience climax.

You must know that before "Ultraman Tiga", there has never been a serious sci-fi TV series.

In fact, even in 2020, Huaxia has never given birth to a hardcore space TV series such as Star Trek or Star Trek, so the market in this area is actually blank.

So although "Ultraman Tiga" is not a hardcore sci-fi TV series, some of it is enough hardcore sci-fi and special effects, as well as the world described in 2050, which is enough to open the eyes of Chinese people.

Finally, there is the suspense contained in "Ultraman Tiga".

In fact, all Ultraman in the previous life didn't have a main plot, and they were all pieced together from unit after unit of small stories. But "Ultraman Tiga" is different, the whole "Ultraman Tiga" has always run through a plot line of the witch clan and the demon clan, and it is vaguely revealing the various situations of the Lich War back then, among which there are even Shang and Zhou gods, the battle of the deer and other content closely related to traditional Chinese culture.

This TV series opened a curtain for the audience called the Flood World, but this curtain was only opened in one corner, so that people could see a little bit of the wonderful picture inside, but it was only a little bit.

The most important thing is that the plot of "Ultraman Tiga" is not overly childlike, because the TV series drawn by children will lead to a lot of bugs in the plot.

Simple children can ignore these words and get joy from them. But thoughtful adults will only find these bugs disgusting and illogical, and then the whole TV will seem very mentally retarded, and finally disdainful.

But under the transformation of Boss Jia, most of the logical loopholes in the Ultraman series have been made up by Boss Jia with amazing brain holes, so that the plot of the entire TV series can be accepted by adults without feeling very retarded and infantilized.

But the wonderful story and plot contained in it can make everyone love it very much.

All these factors combined, which contributed to the unexpected popularity of "Ultraman Tiga" in China.
