That night, episodes 9 and 10 of "Wulin Gaiden" ended and around 2 a.m., scarves became a hot topic.
[The worst director in history]
The topic arose because in the 10th episode of "Wulin Gaiden", the beggar Xiaomi played by Zuo Le was fed a large amount of food alive by Tongfu Inn, and he "died" miserably.
In addition, Xiaomi was disliked by the people at Tongfu Inn all day long, and in episode 9, she was even complained about in a dimension-breaking way.
Someone made a related topic on the bib, saying that Zuo Le is the most miserable and humble director in history. It was recognized by many netizens, liked and forwarded, and it quickly became a hot search topic.
The next day, there was a well-known ghost boss on the currency site. When he saw this hot search, he cut a video for Zuo Le, which was full of "miserable" scenes of him acting.
In "Underground Traffic Station" and "No. 2 Traffic Station", I was slapped by Captain Jia, slapped by Heiteng, beaten by Captain Huang, beaten by the security team, beaten by the Eighth Route Army, by Professor Wen, and fooled by everyone in Dingxiang Tower.
…………
"The Story of the Cooking Class" was criticized by Zhou Dazhou, the squad leader, the boss, and the entire cooking class...
"Family with Children" was criticized by Xia Donghai and disliked by the five members of the Xia family...
"Seven Swords" was beaten by Dugu Qianqiu and vomited blood, was besieged by the Demon Cult, and Fire Dance Tornado self-destructed...
"Wulin Gaiden" was disliked by shopkeeper Tong and the staff at Tongfu Inn, and by Master Xing and Xiaoliu, the master and his apprentice, and was choked to death by the food...
The tragic editing scenes combined with the sad BGM are simply eye-catching, and the fact that Zuo Le's crew is the biggest director adds a bit of comedy and humor to the video.
As soon as this video was released, it immediately appeared on the popular list of the currency website. It was then reposted on the scarf and quickly became popular on the Internet. The topic of "the worst director in history" was also at the top of the hot search list.
Zuo Le knew about this at noon the next day.
He was busy filming at the Kongwen Art Center when he saw this hot search under the guidance of his assistant Feng Ye. He was speechless and a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
The characters I chose are indeed a bit "weird". Next time I make a guest appearance, I have to choose better characters for myself.
There are so many beauties around me, I have a lot of wealth, strong military skills, many younger brothers, and a handsome appearance. I am a typical winner in life...
However, after seeing this hot search, Zuo Le suddenly felt that his popularity was not in vain, so he also made "Wulin Gaiden" more topical.
It happened that several actors in the cooking class were ready-made, so Zuo Le called Sha Yi, Mao Xiao, Fan Min, Yan Ni, and Yin Li, who was still in Kongwen, and made up a short joke for the filming.
Post the video online.
The content is actually very simple. The general idea is that Zuo Le "revenges" them one by one for bullying Xiaomi in the play.
Just when they were happy, the bubble burst. It turned out that the so-called "revenge" was Zuo Le's dream, but in reality it was Sha Yi and several actors playing big names, and Zuo Le tried to coax them one by one, all kinds of humble, pitiful and helpless.
After the video was released, the response was very good, and the hot search topic "The Worst Director in History" became even more popular. Although it did not enter the top three, it has been hovering in the 5th or 6th place. It was not until the morning of the 16th that this scarf fell out of the top ten.

During this period, the ratings of "Wulin Gaiden" were still rising steadily. The average ratings reached 2.5 on the 15th and 2.8 on the 18th. By the time 20 episodes of "Wulin Gaiden" were completed, the average ratings of the entire series had exceeded 3.
In the past 10 years, with the popularity of online platforms and the decline in the production quality of most TV series, the ratings of domestic TV series have plummeted. The ratings of domestic TV series can break 3. In the past 10 years, there have been no more than two hands.
In the past three years, there has been no one.
Last year, "Seven Swords" nearly broke 3 and won the annual ratings championship, which is a rare good result.
"Wulin Gaiden" has only been aired for a quarter of the time, and its ratings have successfully exceeded 3. In this era where the Internet is king and fewer and fewer people watch TV, it is terrifying.
And the most important thing is that the current ratings increase of "Wulin Gaiden" has no intention of slowing down at all.
If it keeps going like this, I can't say whether "Wulin Gaiden" can break 5. It's not a big problem to break 4. This year's annual ratings champion is almost guaranteed to be named Zuo.
Amid all this commotion, CCTV's "Exiled Youth" was also quietly broadcast.
This does not reflect the TV series about grassroots poverty alleviation by college students as village officials. The quality itself is not bad, and the screenwriter and director are also very good at it. However, unfortunately for some reason, there are too many main theme elements in the drama, causing the overall plot to be somewhat "distorted."
But excluding this, the filming of this drama was pretty good, and the results were very good, breaking 1 in one week, with a Douhua score of 7.9.
This achievement is incomparable with "Wulin Gaiden", but compared with some ordinary TV dramas, it is not an exaggeration to call it a success.
But it is a pity that the previous directors of this drama, Wang Sen and Zuo Le, made such nonsense that this drama was often compared with "Wulin Gaiden". The originally good results suddenly became less conspicuous and even looked a bit shabby.
Zuo Le is also worthy of his nickname of giant killer and natural enemy of CCTV. He killed CCTV three times and is extremely awesome.
Zuo Le was too lazy to respond to this statement. Anyway, he had already explained it clearly to the leaders at CCTV. As long as he didn't spread rumors on a large scale, he would pretend he didn't know about it.

While the ratings of "Wulin Gaiden" have continued to be strong during this period, many famous quotes and new memes have also been produced online.
Sunflower acupuncture points on the hands are overwhelming, Zi once said, I don’t need to say more about these classic mantras.
Also includes but is not limited to——
[Mr. Sir, you are so hungry that you are panicking, roaring and roaring...]
[Serve according to store rules, order him in the exhibition hall, all monthly money will be deducted (the shopkeeper kills him three times in a row)]
[My mother-in-law, it is very likely to affect my career]
【I, there is someone above】
.【Help me take good care of my seventh uncle】
[This hand of mine turns out to have six fingers~]
[Spicy fish scales, braised fat sea... charcoal-roasted sow's trotters, rock sugar sausage]
【I'm optimistic about you~】
【It's very beautiful, it's very beautiful】
[Who is the powerful person? Why are you scolding people? I am obviously the idol person]
[Less...put...salt]
【…………】
"Wulin Gaiden" has become a phenomenon-level TV series this year. It is even more popular than last year's "Seven Swords". It even has better popularity among the public because of its sitcom theme type.
At the same time, the success of "Wulin Gaiden" has firmly established Zuo Le as the number one person in sitcoms, and some people have even begun to praise Zuo Le as the king of sitcoms.
Many people agreed with this, but a few people voted against it.
But no matter what, Zuo Le's status in the field of sitcoms is unquestionable.
Although he does not have the name of a king, he has the reality of being a king!
