As expected, as the plot of "Three Kingdoms" gradually came to the part that the public is familiar with, the ratings, webcasts, discussions and other data of this drama have begun to rise.

On August 10th, the ratings of "Three Kingdoms" also ushered in the largest surge since the start of the broadcast.

The day before, the rating of episode 18 was only 2.77%.

But in episode 19, the ratings suddenly reached an eye-popping 3.32%, breaking 3 for the first time; The ratings of episode 20 reached an astonishing 3.71%.

Compared with the day before, the ratings soared by nearly 1 percentage point.

The industry is shaken.

On the morning of the 11th, the chief director Gao Zhen looked at the ratings report he had just seen, and was so surprised that he couldn't even take care of eating.

He knew that episode 19 was the episode in which Zhou Yu, played by Xu Zhen, appeared again.

- Is it really that evil?

Just a supporting role, it can also have such a big pulling effect on the ratings of a big drama like "Three Kingdoms"? ?

Of course, Gao Zhen knew in his heart that this soaring ratings was obviously not the credit of Xu Zhen alone.

Starting from August 9th, "Three Kingdoms" ushered in a series of dense plot points:

Guan Yu passed five passes and killed six generals, left Cao Ying, Liu Guan and Zhang Zhao gathered in the ancient city; Sun Ce died young, and was succeeded by Sun Quan, the future lord of Jiangdong; The battle of Guandu between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao kicked off......

After this series of events, the tripartite forces of Wei, Shu and Wu formally formed a prototype.

This in itself is where the ratings should be increased.

Although Director Gao felt that Zhou Yu's starry night funeral was filmed very well, due to plot reasons, Xu Zhen's contribution to these two episodes may not be great.

It's just a coincidence that it caught up with this surge in ratings.

"The ratings lucky star is really worthy of its name......"

Gao Zhen flipped through the report in his hand and said happily: "Although I know that the soaring height in episode 19 has nothing to do with Xu Zhen, I still feel very comfortable watching it." ”

"Who would refuse to have a few more lucky generals in their crew?"

"Filming is also about metaphysics."

Gao Zhen raised his head, looked at the assistant on the side, and said with a smile: "If you can always lie down and win, and always have a ride to sit on, isn't it also a kind of ability?" ”

The assistant looked at Gao Jin, blinked, and did not comment on the word "hitchhiking".

"Hey, how's the data over there?" After reading the ratings report, Gao Zhen asked casually.

For some low-cost urban dramas and idol dramas, webcast data can almost be said to be a matter of life and death; But "Three Kingdoms" mainly relies on selling TV station broadcast rights to make money, so the webcast data is not so significant in the long run.

However, Gao Jin, who was obviously happy, was still willing to ask and listen.

The assistant had a strange expression when he heard him ask this question.

She handed over another document to Gao Jin, and said: "The data I just got half an hour ago, episode 19, as of now, the cumulative number of views in 12 hours has exceeded 30 million, which is said to have broken the highest record on the whole network, and it is currently being counted." ”

After that, the assistant reminded in a low voice: "It's only 19 episodes so high." The number of views of 20 episodes is normal, 5.12 million, which is basically the same as the previous episodes. 19 episodes is 33.25 million. ”

Gao Jin: "......"

......After a while, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

He opened his mouth to ask something, but he didn't ask.

After being silent for a long time, Gao Jinsu simply walked directly to the computer and opened the penguin video, intending to look through which story episode 19 is about and what magic it is.

As a result, without waiting for him to find the reason why the number of broadcasts of this episode exploded, the overwhelming barrage at the beginning of the broadcast had already told him the answer:

"Confess General Zhou!!"

"Fire tongs Liu Ming, General Zhou is directly a god in this episode, I brushed it several times in one night!"

"Ahhhh......h Sun Ce don't want to die, I'm so worried when I see Zhou Yu sad! ”

"I cried so much that my pillow was wet last night, and I will watch it again in the morning!"

"Is it that pretty? After I brushed it more than 30 times, it felt like that."

“……”

Gao Zhen was stunned.

Although he filmed this drama and he himself was very satisfied, he never expected that the public would be satisfied to this extent!

For a while, Gao Jin was a little dizzy, and his hands and feet fluttered.

He even forgot that he just told his assistant that Xu Zhen was lucky, and he happened to catch up with the rising plot of 19 episodes, which had little impact on the ratings.

Well, not much.

That is, the number of webcasts has increased by five or six times, and it is just a matter of breaking the highest record on the whole network.

Small scenes......

As a big director with hundreds of millions of dramas in one drama, don't make a fuss......

……

By the afternoon of the same day, there was no rebroadcast on the television station, and it was quiet; But on the Internet, the number of broadcasts of "Three Kingdoms" has broken through the 50 million mark, and it is rushing to the next record.

After more than half a day of fermentation, all kinds of derivative works have sprung up, and "Muxi Muxi", which is a video editing concentration camp, was almost slaughtered within half a day.

Intentional and unintentional clips of all kinds began to pop up one after another.

Even Sun Ce, who died quietly in the previous episode, was "turned popular".

When Sun Ce was dying, he said in a hoarse voice, "Ask Zhang Zhao if you don't decide on internal affairs, ask Zhou Yu if you don't decide on foreign affairs, but unfortunately Gongjin is not there, so I can't ask him in person", and asked Sun Quan to return the Chifeng Sword to Zhou Yu.

In this paragraph, the video barrage ushered in a big peak.

Countless viewers said that they were abused to death by this scene.

Tang Yi, who has always been considered a comedian in the past, enjoyed the treatment of the drama for the first time, he watched countless people leave messages that they didn't want him to die, and cried when he died, only to feel that the whole person was fluttering, and he was so moved that he almost didn't cry.

Yes...... Finally, no one looked at me and laughed to death!

This year's audience is so good-hearted, I love you!!

……

At this time, Xu Zhen, who was in the ravine, also got this amazing ratings and webcast data.

He looked at the time suspiciously, and then checked the broadcast history on the Internet.

That's right, it's just episode 20.

Zhou Yu has only appeared twice, and he is still a few years away from the Battle of Chibi.

Why did Zhou Yu's popularity explode in advance at this time?

"Three Kingdoms" is undoubtedly a good crew, and the quality of Zhou Yu's sub-scripts is also quite good.

Xu Zhen originally thought that he was just a trick in the early stage, and he came out from time to time to brush up on his presence, but after 30 episodes, the plot related to the Battle of Chibi officially began, and Zhou Yu would change from a "dragon set" to a "starring role", becoming one of the important characters leading the plot.

But why is it so hot now?

"Ah Zhen, I know you're busy," Qiao Feng persuaded on the other end of the phone, "But when you appear by yourself, try to squeeze out time to take a look, you will have an interview after a while." ”

"Don't ask people what you think of the 'Zhou Yu fever' on the Internet, and you will answer that you don't go online."

Xu Zhen: "......"

"Okay, Brother Qiao, I'll try my best," Xu Zhen smiled helplessly and said, "Next time it's 28 episodes, right?" I must read this section of Chibi, don't worry. ”
