Fake girlfriend is a big star

Like the law of conservation of energy, a smile doesn't disappear, it just moves from one face to another.

Gu Yuan's original attitude towards Mr. Hu's news was full of anticipation, and he had already thought about how to respond—listening with regret, covering his eyes with his hands, and keeping the corners of his mouth down, so that he could express himself The mood when you hear the news, but the eyes must be crescent.

The ratings of "Love Apartment" are not good. As a father, he should be sad. On the surface, he has let down Mr. Hu's help, and his daughter and son-in-law's new work failed, so he should be sad anyway.

In fact, I still have to be happy in silence, because this is one step closer to my daughter and son-in-law staying at home honestly.

But Gu Yuan realized that he was wrong.

Wrong.

Mainly because Director Hu laughed.

Damn it!

How can this guy laugh?
Looking at his breezy smile, he seems to have drank cool spring water in the dog days, or touched a heater in the severe cold. He is happy. The reason for his happiness is probably the good response of "Love Apartment", after all, he has achieved success again. , and his own decision made the ratings of the TV station even higher.

"Hu Tai." Gu Yuan suppressed his emotions and asked, "How's the response?"

"very good!"

Director Hu raised his wine glass and said with a smile, "I want to drink an extra glass of wine. Now that the end of the year is approaching, our Shanghai TV station has been busy for a year and has not made any achievements. It’s been so plain, but! Lu Yang and Qinghan’s TV series made me see a new dawn on the stage, and Gu Dong didn’t hear the tone of my staff’s report, so I couldn’t hide my excitement!”

Is that true?
Gu Yuan was unwilling to face the fact that he had provided a lot of help during the filming of "Love Apartment", and he knew a little about that TV series, which didn't suit his middle-aged and elderly interests.

You can see Hu Tai's reaction, this drama
really not bad?
No, no, Gu Yuan shook his head and stared into Hu Tai's eyes, "Didn't the ratings come out yet? Why are you so excited?"

"Gu Dong doesn't know something." Hu Tai said with a smile, "The ratings are not available, but we can roughly guess the response of "Love Apartment" based on the data, and the current audience is not like before."

"What does this have to do with the audience?" Gu Yuan didn't understand what he meant.

"In the past, when audiences watched TV dramas, they would write letters to the TV station, asking which dramas they wanted to watch, or commenting on which actors performed well."

Gu Yuan nodded.

This was indeed the case in the past. At that time, TV was a new thing. Some people would write letters to TV dramas, and some would write letters to actors. They used this method to explain their love for TV dramas, or for that person to play a role. favorite.

But people were simple back then, and now it’s the age of the information explosion, so how can I write letters?

"Does this have anything to do with writing letters?" Gu Yuan asked.

"A little bit, Gu Dong, wait a minute, I'll show you my phone."

Director Hu took out his mobile phone and gestured on the screen with his hands. In the process, his smile became more and more intense, like a chrysanthemum blooming in midsummer.

And Gu Yuan became more and more impatient.

"No, I found it." Director Hu held out his mobile phone in front of Gu Yuan, "The original number of fans on our station was only 18, but it suddenly rose to [-] in just one night today. These people are all because of "Love" "The Apartment" came to pay attention."

He stretched out his hand to continue operating, and scrolled to the Weibo promoting "Love Apartment", "Look."

Gu Yuan looked at it, his eyes were fixed on the screen, his hands were trembling, his heart was bleeding, the poster of "Love Apartment" was displayed on the phone screen, young and handsome actors appeared in the center of the screen in different poses, and finally On the top, not at the C position, stood his daughter and son-in-law.

These two guys were also smiling, the same as Mr. Hu's.

Smile like a flower.

Very clichéd copywriting, just simply told the broadcast time of "Love Apartment", and did not promote anything except the hilarious plot, but it was also true, Lu Yang and Gu Qinghan didn't want to publicize, while the other actors...
There is nothing to advertise.

But such a lineup, such a publicity without much publicity, is even more so on the tepid official Weibo of Modu TV. The number of comments on Weibo exceeded [-] in a short time.

Gu Yuan glanced at the time when Weibo was released——20:00
Current time: 22:13
In two hours, the number of comments exceeded [-]?
play?

Gu Yuan stared blankly, watching Director Hu's fingers continue to flick on the phone, he clicked on the comment area, Gu Yuan also saw countless people's comments.

He was startled.

"I looked at the schedule, why is there no replay of "Love Apartment" during the day? Hurry up and replay it, I'm dying of anxiety if I didn't watch the first episode!"

"Who can watch two episodes a day? Let me tell you the number, ten episodes a day!"

"The garbage time during the day can be switched to a rerun of "Love Apartment". Such a beautiful TV series, can't you watch it all at once?"

"Please, my baby didn't watch the first episode of "Love Apartment", now I feel like there are ants crawling on my body!"

"Quickly replay the first episode, and every day in the future, we will replay the previous day's content!"

"Where can I watch the first episode of "Love Apartment"? Please!"

"Did you sleep? If you haven't slept, quickly change the schedule and put "Love Apartment" on it!"

The comment section has everything to say.

Most people's topics are concentrated in two places -

Reminds the number of episodes played each day.

The TV station of the Demon City took time out during the day and arranged a rebroadcast for a time slot.

Gu Yuan's heart was flustered. Anyone with a discerning eye could see how much the audience liked "Love Apartment". This kind of word-of-mouth and the number of comments could all reflect the success of "Love Apartment"'s premiere rate.

"This" he was too uncomfortable to speak.

What son-in-law and daughter's dream of leaving the entertainment industry was shattered, their new drama was a huge success, and in the process, Gu Yuan also helped the two solve a lot of troubles.

Didn't it mean that Lu Yang was filming a TV series for the first time?

Didn't it mean that this was Lu Yang's first script?

You were so powerful for the first time, and you have shown unrivaled influence in these two episodes alone. Isn't that a proper hit?
You pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, pretending to be a newcomer to trick your father-in-law, right?

"Gu Dong." Director Hu smiled, "I'm right, you found a good son-in-law, you will be blessed after Qinghan."

"Hehe." Gu Yuan smiled awkwardly.

He was still lucky, so he asked again: "This is just the first two episodes. If the follow-up doesn't work, the audience will scold them badly. You can't be proud."

"No." Director Hu thought that Gu Yuan was a traditional old father, and those guys would always say other things when facing others bragging about their children, but they were actually pretending to be coercive.

He said with a smile, "The staff of my station have seen "Love Apartment" by Lu Yang and Gu Qinghan. It's a bit like a unit drama. It's different from other TV dramas. Its storyline can be said to be coherent, but it doesn't need to be too coherent. , the real selling point is not the plot, but the laughing points of each episode."

"So there will be no decline in word-of-mouth?"

"Of course." Director Hu raised his wine glass again and drank the liquid in the glass, "Our staff all said that the quality of the TV series is very high, and the crew is still in the stage of broadcasting and editing at the same time. These people have watched all the episodes that were sent, looking forward to the follow-up, they are all looking forward to it, can those viewers look forward to it?"

"It's good to look forward to, it's good to look forward to it." Gu Yuan murmured to himself.

Expectation means that Lu Yang and Gu Qinghan can go far on this road, and it means that they are farther away from going home, his little thought.
Also go far.

"What about the ratings of the first broadcast?" Gu Yuan still didn't give up.

"I can only say that it is very high. The number of viewers is a new high since the establishment of Shanghai Satellite TV." Mr. Hu said seriously, "The first broadcast rate cannot be seen, but the number of viewers on Shonan Satellite TV is only two-thirds of ours. .”

This is not much difference, the opponent can still catch up.

Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Two-thirds of it is still possible to be caught up." Gu Yuan said, "It seems that "Love Apartment" is not too popular."

"No, no, no." Director Hu shook his head, "This is just the peak viewership data for the first episode."

"Then did it change in the second episode?" Gu Yuan was stunned.

"Yes." Director Hu nodded, "The second episode of Shonan Satellite TV's "The Stars" is only one-third of "Love Apartment."

"No data falsification?" Gu Yuan couldn't believe his ears.

"No." Director Hu shook his head, "Lu Yang and Gu Qinghan inserted their own wedding segment in the first episode. This gimmick is very good and has attracted a lot of viewers. Then there is Lu Yang's production and Gu Qinghan's singing Many factors of the theme song were fermented on the Internet, making the second episode attract a lot of viewers."

Ding--

Gu Yuan lost all strength in his hands for a moment, and the chopsticks with metal ends fell to the ground, he was dumbfounded.

He knew that the wedding clips were edited into the TV series. He thought it was an operation to spoil the audience's goodwill. After all, many people hate the creator's inclusion of private goods in it. Everyone came to watch the plot. Who would spend most of the day watching it? Your wedding?

Gu Yuan thought so.

But what he didn't expect was.

These audiences really will.

"It's a gimmick, it's not good."

"It's a gimmick." Mr. Hu agreed with his statement, and he explained with a smile, "But there is no gimmick in the plot of the second episode, and the audience who heard the news gave the whole episode to the audience. After watching it, not too many people saw half of the channel change.”

Gu Yuan: "."

well.

This news has already blocked all the escape routes he thought about. This is a one-shot kill. Countless characteristics show that the data of "Love Apartment" is excellent. No matter how much he doesn't want to face it, he can't change it.

"Okay!" Gu Yuan poured wine into the glass briskly, he poured it quickly, and not much wine spilled out.

He drank it all in one gulp, the liquor poured into his mouth and down his throat, it was as strong as cutting his throat.

He didn't know what he was thinking, maybe the wine was too strong, his eyes had fluorescent flashes, and he looked at Director Hu with a loud voice.

"Awesome!"

Director Hu didn't understand this sudden turning point. Just now, he was just an old father who kept looking for the possibility of failure, and now he started to praise?

No matter how he looked at it, he found it strange, but he didn't dare to continue to think deeply, but instead discussed today's business - advertising.

"Gu Dong, it's like this." Director Hu hesitated a little. Ever since he knew the data of the TV series, he has asked for others. He was still active at first, but now he has become passive.

"You said."

"Lu Yang gave us the right to premiere "Love Apartment", but our station rejected them at the time of the rebroadcast, and now our station wants to return to the rebroadcast very loudly."

I want to help myself to replay it
Gu Yuan rolled his eyes, although he didn't want to help Lu Yang expand his influence, but the TV series are so popular, even if he didn't want to, Director Hu would have direct communication with Lu Yang.

Then he might as well be a favor.

"That's easy!" He tapped on his wine glass, "That's the advertising fee."

"Good talk!"

Director Hu was caught when he lifted it up.

The wine glasses collided, beautiful hops splashed under the light, and the two old foxes smiled at each other.

"Son"

On the phone, Gu Yuan's voice was vague, obviously drunk, but his tone was joyful.

He murmured, "I just had dinner with Mr. Hu. Shanghai TV Station wants the rebroadcast rights of "Love Apartment". "

Lu Yang was amused when he heard it.

Although the TV station did not want to rebroadcast it before, they fought for it and there was no follow-up, but now they come to ask for it, which means that the data of "Love Apartment" is hot.

"Is there any feedback over there?" Gu Qinghan interjected from the side.

Lu Yang's mobile phone has been turned on and released, and the husband and wife are fighting wits and courage with the old father.

"I gave a discount to the advertising fee." Gu Yuan knew that he couldn't be fooled when he heard it.

The advertising fee is sky-high. Gu Qinghan knew how much the Gu family saved in it without guessing. She said pointedly, "Of course it's okay to replay it."

"Save money and set up a trust for grandchildren!" Gu Yuan said directly.

The daughter's elbows are pulled out, can he not hear it?
"No problem." Gu Qinghan readily agreed.

She asked another question, "How about the data of "Love Apartment"?"

this question.
Old Gu's father felt blocked.

But what can he do, he can only say truthfully: "The number of viewers of the second episode is several times that of "A Tale of Stars."

Gu Qinghan: "."

Lu Yang: "."

They were all watching "Love Apartment" just now, and they have never seen "The Story of the Stars" at the other end. They thought why it was released, the quality of the film will not be bad, and there are so many publicity, it is even more Sitting on Shonan Satellite TV, a large-traffic TV station.

Can't compare to this?
"It's okay, bye." Gu Qinghan didn't greet Gu Yuan at all, and hung up the phone.

"Don't talk much?" Lu Yang was taken aback by the speed at which the phone was hung up.

"No." Gu Qinghan fiddled with his phone, ""Love Apartment" has become like this, and talking about my dad will make me feel stuck."

"Then you really know enough."

"of course."

Gu Qinghan smiled.

She turned on her phone and continued to surf the Internet at high speed.

"What are you looking at? So anxious." Lu Yang asked.

"I just want to see Ginny's style review. I don't know what will happen to the people who touch porcelain now."

Gu Qinghan said.
