China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 377: The popularity exploded, and Fu Dalong became an instant hit

The premiere of "The Northern Dynasties" had a viewership rating of over 5.

The environment has changed compared to when "Nirvana in Fire" was first broadcast, and the TV station's decline has become more obvious.

What does it mean to have a viewership rating of over 5? Let me put it this way, at the beginning of the year, the average viewership rating of CCTV's opening drama "National Hero" just exceeded 3, and the highest viewership rating of a single episode was 4.089.

On the first day of its premiere, "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" surpassed the highest ratings of "National Hero", which can be considered a successful start.

In the discussion group of "The Northern Dynasty", Fu Dalong @ Li Yu posted an expression of admiration: "Director Li, I really admire you. The first broadcast exceeded the opening drama of the year. Director Li may be the only one who can have such influence in domestic TV series."

Fu Dalong's words came from the heart.

He was really convinced.

We were filming the "Great Wall" series at the time. During the break, Da Tiantian felt sorry that "The Northern Dynasties" missed out on CCTV's big drama of the new year.

Li Yu said very confidently that it didn’t matter whether there was a big drama at the beginning of the year, because he would be the annual ratings champion anyway.

At that time, Fu Dalong was stunned by Li Yu's confident words.

To be honest, at that time he believed that every drama filmed by Li Yu would be a hit.

After all, Li Yu has never failed since his debut, and all of his works are good works with universal acclaim.

But as for the annual ratings champion, he really didn't believe it at that time. He thought Li Yu was a little arrogant.

Looking back now, he realized that it was not Li Yu who was arrogant, but he himself was too short-sighted.

"The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" has already become the drama with the highest single-episode ratings of the year right from the start.

As long as they can maintain their momentum later on, the annual ratings champion will be within their grasp.

Li Yu replied to Fu Dalong in the small group: "The good show has just begun, and your character has not yet appeared. The day your character appears will be the day you become famous."

If Gao Huan is the first protagonist of this TV series, then the second protagonist must be Yuwen Tai.

Compared with the charismatic and tragic hero like Gao Huan, Yuwen Tai is more like an emotionless political machine.

Generally speaking, Yuwen Tai was not as outstanding as Gao Huan.

But the situation is different when the actor who plays Yuwen Tai is Fu Dalong.

Fu Dalong's portrayal of kings is unique and very distinctive. Yang Guang and King Huiwen of Qin are classic examples.

There are so many people who whitewash Yang Guang, saying that Yang Guang's crimes were committed in his time but his contributions will be remembered for generations to come. I'm afraid that Yang Guang, who was rich and powerful, made a considerable contribution.

Because Fu Dalong's acting skills are so outstanding, Li Yu believes that Yuwen Tai's charm in this drama is no less than Gao Huan.

This is the hard power of a top actor.

Zhang Zhen’s acting skills are already very good, but his opponent is Fu Dalong, and his glory is destined to be taken away by Fu Dalong.

After getting Li Yu's reply, Fu Dalong was very excited.

Now he completely believed what Li Yu said.

Li Yu said he would become famous, and he had no doubt about it.

and many more.

Fu Dalong suddenly thought of something extraordinary.

The positive effects that "The Northern Dynasties" brought him have been so great. What kind of impact will the release of the "The Great Wall" series have on him? Will it push him into the ranks of first-line movie actors?

Fu Dalong himself didn't dare to imagine it any further because it was too exaggerated, so exaggerated that he himself felt it was not real.

As "The Northern Dynasties" became popular, Fu Dalong found that what Li Yu had told him was gradually becoming a reality.

After more than ten episodes, the first big climax of the whole series came, and the ratings of "The Northern Dynasties" officially reached its peak, breaking 8.

The grand occasion of ratings breaking 10 has become history, unless the Internet disappears overnight.

Breaking 8 has become the domestic drama with the highest ratings after "Nirvana in Fire" and "Name".

It is said that energy will not disappear out of thin air, it will only be transferred to other places.

The TV ratings of "The Kingdom of Northern Dynasties" are indeed not as good as "Nirvana in Fire" and "In the Name".

But on the Internet, the popularity of "The King of Northern Dynasties" is much higher than that of "Nirvana in Fire" and "In the Name" during their broadcast period.

So if we look at the overall influence, "The King of Northern Dynasties" is definitely better than "Nirvana in Fire" and "The Name".

Yuwen Tai, played by Fu Dalong, appeared ten episodes later.

Fu Dalong became an instant hit with this role and became a popular male star in China.

Many audiences were conquered by Fu Dalong's superb acting skills.

"Oh my god, isn't Fu Dalong's acting too good? As a fan of Gao Huan, I used to really hate him as Gao Huan's nemesis.

Fu Dalong interprets the role of Yuwen Tai so well that I can no longer dislike this character. "

"Why did such an actor with such great acting skills become popular only today? Thanks to Director Li. If it weren't for Director Li, I really wouldn't have discovered such an amazing number one actor."

"Director Li invited Fu Dalong to star in "The Northern Dynasty" and "The Great Wall" consecutively. At that time, many people really didn't understand Director Li's operation, and I was one of them.

Now seeing Fu Dalong's performance in "The Northern Dynasty", I can only say that Director Li has a really good eye for actors, and he really made the right choice in Fu Dalong. "

With the popularity of "The Northern Dynasties", not only Fu Dalong became famous, but even "The Great Wall", which has not yet been released, also became popular.

Because Fu Dalong is one of the leading actors in "The Great Wall", the popularity of "The Great Wall" was basically brought about by Fu Dalong.

After observing that The Great Wall had become popular because of Fu Dalong's success, Han Dong, the president of China Film Group, personally called Li Yu and said, "Director Li, I think the Great Wall series should strike while the iron is hot and speed up the post-production so that the first part can be released at the end of the year."

Li Yu calculated the time and found that it was only July, so it was not too rushed.

As long as you are willing to pay more, it won't be a problem to schedule the first part to be released at the end of the year.

The slow post-production of "The Great Wall" series is mainly due to special effects. As long as you are willing to spend money, the speed of special effects can be increased a lot.

Li Yu also felt that they should take advantage of Fu Dalong's popularity this year to arrange the release of the first part of "The Great Wall", so he accepted Mr. Han's suggestion.

Considering that the largest investor in the "Great Wall" series is Da Tiantian and her Starry Sky Company, it is natural for Li Yu to say hello to Da Tiantian.

"Tiantian, I plan to add money to speed up the post-production of The Great Wall and plan to release it at the end of the year. What do you think?"

Li Yu called Da Tiantian to tell her.

Da Tiantian obviously misunderstood Li Yu's meaning. She thought Li Yu was asking her for money, so she said, "Li Yu, you know me. As long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem for me. Tell me, how much do you want to add? Just give a random number, don't be shy."

Da Tiantian invested 3 million yuan without even blinking an eye.

It's just adding money to speed up the progress. How much money can it cost? More than 3 million? Da Tiantian said it was just a small amount of money and she didn't take it seriously at all.

Besides, she is the one who most hopes that "The Great Wall" can be released as soon as possible.
