Chapter 74 The Quietly Soaring Popularity

Terrestrial channels, the feedback of ratings, are far less efficient than satellite channels.

For a TV series, the final situation has to be expressed through word of mouth.

This is the difference between TV series and movies.

Movies are directly used as commodities, and a penny at the box office is a penny. As a commodity, the feedback is quick, simple, and rude.

But TV shows...

The ratings are low, and it is usually only by selling to TV stations, it is difficult to obtain the benefits of TV dramas based on the real ratings of TV dramas...

The terrestrial channel, the feedback is not as efficient as the satellite channel, and the influence can only cover the province. It is conceivable that the platform of "Latent" is not good.

A good TV series usually needs a good platform.

Content is king, or channel is king, this is a never-ending debate.

Those who emphasize that content is king can never ignore one thing: even if it is a bad drama broadcast in prime time on Central South Taiwan, it is commonplace for the ratings to break second.

This platform is pretty scary.

But if the channel is king, then how did "Soldier Assault" become popular?

What about "Wulin Biography", including the later "Love Apartment" series?

But the combination of the two will naturally be perfect.

Chen Xi's "Latent" has temporarily lost its channels, so it can only start from the content.

Relying on the word-of-mouth of the audience, gradually increasing the popularity of the TV series, and even reaching the level of broadcasting on the stars, this road has begun to become accessible.

But the premise is that everything is as expected, and there is a driving force to move forward.

This kind of life, I almost started to get tired of it.

It's not that she doesn't want to make film and television works anymore, but that Chen Xi is tired of being restricted everywhere.

If he had money at the beginning, "Latent" would not be dictated by the TV station.

With a high-quality TV series in hand, you have enough confidence in your hands, and you are not afraid of the wind and rain at all. At most, you can spend a few dollars and show your face at the spring promotion meeting, and everything will fall into place.

After that, good platform, good broadcast...

will come.

but now……

In the stage of primitive accumulation of capital, there are many things, with twists and turns and hardships.

As long as "Latent" can soar into the sky, make a few more films, and earn some money, Chen Xi can solve the shortage of funds.

..."Latent" began to air quietly on Suhuai TV's film and television channel. After some publicity, it gradually gained popularity.

Mainland TV dramas are rebroadcast after filming. Both the production team and the audience have become accustomed to this method day after day. This situation did not change until the era of online dramas came ten years later.

Chen Xi didn't pay much attention to the ratings growth of "Latent", at least, he didn't pay attention to it every day.

"Latent" is on the film and television channel, and it will be finished in ten days!Everyone knows that it is not easy to get results within ten days.

"Latent, the ratings are out on the first day?"

Inside the TV station, Wang Lifeng was already impatient with the result and asked immediately.

With regard to Chen Xi's affairs, there will be waves of grievances.

Things are one after another.

"Latent" was broadcast on the film and television channel, due to the current situation, but there was also his shadow of Wang Lifeng behind it.

As long as the ratings of "Latent" are too low and the TV station loses all its money, Chen Xi's many things will be solved by itself, and he doesn't even need to take action.

For the terrestrial channel, it takes a long time for the ratings feedback, so Wang Lifeng waited for a few days. When he asked this question, it had been three days since the premiere of "Latent".

"0.64%."

The staff quickly reported the exact figures.

Ratings without moisture.

A little higher than expected.

But the high is limited.

For terrestrial channels, the audience is relatively narrow, and the ratings are difficult to get high, but the ratings are stable. A TV series can always have some viewers.

The ratings were still not beyond his imagination.

"It seems that the influence of this TV series is limited to this! Chen Xi's myth, is it over?!" Wang Lifeng was in a good mood.

It's just that he didn't notice one thing.

In some places, comments on "Latent" slowly appeared.

It's only three days...

Moreover, the comments were filled with all kinds of excited words, and there was no lack of thoughtfulness.

"In the past few days, I saw a TV series from the Suhuai Film and Television Channel. At first, I thought it was just a garbage TV series, which was not interesting. I didn't expect that after I actually watched it, it was quite good! The rhythm of the TV series... Maybe I will be hurt if I say so. Cursed, but it does have the standard of an American drama.”

American dramas, since "Prison Break" in 02, have been synonymous with rigorous and tight rhythm in China.

Relying on strong industrial capabilities and a vast affluent market, coupled with a series of mature market operation mechanisms, American TV dramas are also the highest-quality TV dramas in the world.

Being able to use American dramas to describe mainland TV dramas, this person's love for "Latent" can be seen.

"Now, the popularity of mainland dramas and historical dramas seems to have subsided, and the slick braids on the screen are much less, but now spy war dramas are flooding in, and they are everywhere. I watched a movie called "Latent" in the past two days. This name makes people don't want to read it, but when you look carefully, you find that there are many breakthroughs. The rhythm of the TV series is not as procrastinated as ordinary mainland dramas, but rather compact. Moreover, there is a rather wonderful reversal in the TV series, which always makes the plot come out. Unexpected, but also surprisingly rigorous... After watching nine episodes, each episode is like a movie, interlocking and fascinating! I recommend everyone to watch it. I didn't expect that I could be in The local TV station, seeing such a seamless spy war drama that people can't stop watching. The mainland TV drama can reach this level, and it's still on the local TV station!"

"I watched a TV show called "Latent" on Suhuai Satellite TV's film and television channel. I thought many people couldn't watch it at all, so I planned to recommend it online. I didn't expect it. From my many years of experience in watching mainland dramas, this TV series is definitely above the standard! His screenwriting is as standard as a textbook, but while making all the details super immersive, he also played a lot The success of the TV series is mainly due to the screenwriter. Its rhythm is perfectly mastered. There is usually a small suspense in the first 10 minutes of each episode, which is solved near the middle, and then a big suspense, which is solved near the end and left at the end. A hook. A grenade was used as a foreshadowing. It was buried from the second episode and used again in the last few episodes. The design is extremely ingenious..."

Similar comments on the Internet, although not overwhelming, are like a steady stream, and there will always be more comments every day, and even gradually become a snowball trend!
