The story told in the first episode of the drama "Emperor Ruzi" is that Da Chu died three successive generations of emperors in less than four years.

The current heroic Emperor Wu, died after reigning for more than 40 years, Emperor Heng succeeded to the throne, three years later, died of serious illness, and his eldest son, Emperor Si, succeeded to the throne in less than the year of the weak crown, and died two months later.

After the death of Emperor Si, he did not leave any heirs, and could only choose a successor from the other two sons of Emperor Heng.

Han Ruzi and the King of the East China Sea.

The former is a child born to a palace maid, who is not loved by Emperor Heng and has a humble maternal family; The latter's maternal family is a member of the Cui family, and his prestige is extremely high.

Here, Wedo Entertainment has made a certain adaptation of the original book.

In the original book, the protagonist Han Ruzi, and the important supporting role of the King of the East China Sea, both of them are very young, thirteen or fourteen years old. In the setting of the play, the grade of the two is set to be seventeen years old. Mainly considering the problem of actors, Li Ze is running for three years this year, and it may be okay to ask him to play a seventeen-year-old boy; Playing a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy is definitely not good.

What's more, the protagonist at the age of thirteen or fourteen is very inappropriate. This is not a juvenile drama,

The story begins after the death of Emperor Si, Han Ruzi was admitted to the court by the eunuch Yang Feng, and together with the king of the East China Sea, he became a candidate for the emperor, and eventually became the emperor.

However, this is just a puppet.

The King of the East Sea was supported by many foreign ministers outside the court, and it was precisely because of this that the Queen Mother did not want the King of the East Sea to succeed to the throne, and instead chose Han Ruzi, a man with no roots and better control, as the puppet emperor - and only a transition.

In this process, the ministers of the imperial court worked hard, and even stormed the court, wanting to establish the king of the East China Sea as the emperor, but in the end they failed.

The first episode, about an hour long, finishes the process.

Ge Mei was attentive throughout the whole viewing. When she first started watching it, she was still a little scrutinizing, but when the plot entered a very important part in the first episode, the whole story can be described as meticulous, and Ge Mei read it unconsciously.

Pull the progress bar and skip to see it? Stop it. This drama, from the first minute, throws out a particularly large amount of information, and I can't wait for every shot to be quite meaningful. In the process of watching, Ge Mei felt that she was using her brain all the time, and she had no desire to jump at all.

Before I knew it, I finished watching the first episode.

couldn't help it, and immediately clicked on the second episode.

The quality has not declined, but as the plot enters the situation of the son becoming the emperor, the situation has not improved, and after the story becomes more ups and downs, the whole story has become more gripping.

Looking at it, suddenly a sentence outside the headset woke her up.

"What are you looking at?"

"Huh?" Taking off the headphones, Ge Mei found that it was her roommate Dou Min who had returned.

Dou Min repeated the question just now.

""Emperor Ruzi"!"

"Have you read the "Heavenly Dao Library" that I recommended to you?"

"Looked."

"I'm handsome, right?"

"That's all that's left of the face."

"What do you mean?" Dou Min was a little unhappy, she couldn't listen to half of her bad words.

"No...... It's nothing ......" Ge Mei didn't want to argue with her roommate about it, otherwise, it would definitely not end well.

"The drama is indeed a little general......" It seems that Dou Min himself knows the situation, "but it has nothing to do with my Kun!" It's all the director and the script's pot, and I've worked hard. ”

"Yes, yes......" Ge Mei nodded in response, and after she finished speaking, she put her headphones back on and continued to watch.

Dou Min was idle, standing behind Ge Mei and watching together for a while.

Although she couldn't hear the sound, after just watching it for a few minutes, she said again: "Huh? Who is this little brother? It's pretty handsome, too. ”

She is talking about the protagonist of "Emperor Ruzi", who plays Li Ze of Han Ruzi.

"The name of the protagonist actor seems to be Li Ze." Ge Mei took off the headphones again, turned the computer into an external amplifier, and then simply asked, "Do you want to watch it together?" ”

"Okay, tell me about the previous plot......" Dou Min moved a bench and came over to watch it together.

……

On the first day of the launch of "Emperor Ruzi", the ratings of major review websites were unlocked.

On Douban, it scored 9.0 points directly. Generally, when the work is just launched, as long as the quality is good, the score will always be higher, and after a long time, it will naturally return to a normal level.

But no matter what, a 9.0 rating isn't too low.

In general, the audience's impression of this work is mainly focused on a series of labels such as 'realistic', 'actor's acting school', 'Li Ze is a good actor', 'brutal power struggle' and so on.

In general, this drama is quite good in the evaluation of all parties.

However, bad situations are not without it.

In stark contrast to the very good reputation, the results of "The Emperor of Ruzi" on the first day of its launch, even if it was a wave of assists before the event, were not outstanding.

The pre-sale of the work, compared with "Heavenly Dao" and "Martial Arts" in the summer, is far behind, only 500,000. Counting the paid members brought by the work, the revenue on the eve of the entire launch is only about 30 million, which is a slightly sluggish number.

After the work was launched, the number of views on the first day barely exceeded 100 million in a whole day - this is the number of views of all free and paid content.

This is not the performance that an ambitious drama should have.

Seeing such results, Sun Junyi, the operation director of the 'Dimension Platform', was quite discouraged.

The taste of failure is really uncomfortable.

However, Ye Jiayi and Fan Zhe, after knowing about this incident, did not blame him and Wu Jingtong too much.

"Just be ourselves and take our time."

didn't get scolded, this is the only thing that makes Sun Junyi feel that he is in a good mood.

But in fact, after Lao Sun left, Ye Jiayi inevitably showed some frustration.

This kind of mood is not suitable for showing in front of his subordinates, but in front of Fan Zhe, Ye Jiayi will no longer pretend to be calm.

"This time...... It seems like we've failed. ”

Her nature is not high.

But Fan Zhe, who heard this next to him, was not so pessimistic.

"Failure? It seems like it's too early to make a conclusion, and I don't even think I've failed. After a pause, he continued: "I see that the audience reviews are quite good. ”

"Good reputation, poor grades, applauded or not......" Ye Jiayi shook her head helplessly.

This kind of thing is quite common. Not only in TV series, but also in movies, this situation is even more common.

Just because the quality of the work is good doesn't mean that the results will be good.

But despite this, Fan Zhe still maintained a good attitude: "It's still too early, believe it or not, although it seems that the results of "Emperor Ruzi" may be inferior to "Tiandao" of "Tianhong", but if we look at it in the long run, our results can surpass them." ”

"Uh......" Ye Jiayi looked at Fan Zhe, and didn't know why he was so confident.
