Chapter 207 It's all thanks to the good background of the peers (1/3)
The day after the broadcast of "New Legend of the Gods", a public opinion storm was once again set off on the Internet, which was even more fierce than the previous "Magic Phone".
The arguments are very focused, and they criticize "New Legend of the Gods" as a terrible movie.
[It’s true, the adaptation is not random fabrication, and the drama is not nonsense. Apart from the similar character names, can you tell me which chapter of "The Romance of the Gods" has this plot?] - Netizen A.
[Fans, please don’t think it’s an adaptation. Adaptation is fine, but you don’t want to use the title of “The Romance of the Gods” and sell it as dog meat. It’s disgusting] - Netizen B.
[I just watched an episode and I was so angry that I laughed. Yang Jian and Daji can do CP... I can't even hold down the coffin board of King Zhou] - Netizen C.
[What the hell is the high priest saying at the beginning, "I have been ordered by heaven, and I will live forever"? Time travel? Does he also have a silly girl?]——Netizen Ding.
[Ying Zheng: Where is my Great Qin Cavalry] - Netizen Lao Zhao.
[I can tolerate anything, the fact that the nine-tailed fox is a man really breaks my bottom line] - Netizen Xiaoqian.
[Jingcheng TV spent hundreds of millions to create such a thing, is this money laundering?]——Netizen Brother Sun.
[I couldn't stand "Magic Phone" before, so I came here to support "New Legend of the Gods", but in the end I was taught how to be a good person. Now that I think about it, "Magic Phone" is quite good, at least it didn't give me shit] -
—Netizen Mr. Zhou.
[Although the fragrance is late, it is here, so I will honestly watch "Magic Phone" (laughing and crying)] - Netizen Miss Wu.
[I apologize for questioning "Magic Phone" two days ago, Sha Niu is so beautiful] - Netizen Zheng.
[Zuo Le: It’s not that I, Zuo, am so good at filming TV series, it’s mainly that my peers support me well] - Netizen Wang Moumou.
【……】
When "Magic Phone" first received such negative reviews, many people still spoke for the TV series.
And this time it's the turn of "New Legend of the Gods". Apart from the fans of the leading actors, there are almost not many people on their side.
And after the third and fourth episodes were aired, even the fans couldn't stop watching.
The plot is so bad!
I won’t talk about the part where King Zhou of Shang sent troops to attack Jizhou. Anyway, Su Hu made all kinds of brainless operations. He said he was doing it for the people of Liming, but in fact he was a self-motivated fool.
The audience watched and wished that King Zhou would rush in and kill his whole family. When they finally saw the couple dead, they wished they could clap their hands and applaud.
In fact, in this plot, the actor who plays Su Hu is an experienced actor, his acting skills are not bad, and he is very dedicated in the performance. From the performance point of view, there is no problem.
But unfortunately, the logic of the plot is too poor. No matter how good the acting is, it can't cover up the embarrassment of the character itself. The play is full of sadness, but the audience frowns and even wants to laugh.
The subsequent plot was even more ridiculous. Su Hu and his wife died, and Daji was escorted to Chaoge. On the road, she met a nine-tailed fox. The nine-tailed fox took a fancy to Daji's soul and pursued her, asking her to give up her soul. The two fell in love with each other.
Just break it off.
After arriving at Chaoge, King Zhou decided to execute Daji without saying a word. In order to avenge his parents, Daji agreed to the nine-tailed fox's request and was possessed by it.
Then came the high-energy drama.
Originally, King Zhou had no interest in Daji at all and would kill her whenever he asked. However, as soon as the nine-tailed fox possessed her, she said a few flirtatious words and winked at her, King Zhou became instantly obsessed with Daji.
Let me remind you again that this version of the nine-tailed fox is male.
Friends, you taste it, you taste it carefully...
After charming King Zhou, Daji gave Yang Jian a cuckold, and then while King Zhou was sleeping, she prepared to kill him with a knife to avenge his parents.
The knife stabbed her heart. Daji suddenly felt that she could not let King Zhou die so easily. She had to torture him slowly and let King Zhou die in pain.
How to torture me? Make me sing and dance for King Zhou every day, eat, drink and sleep with you...
The screenwriter and director may have understood that this was torture, but King Zhou probably didn’t think so, and neither did the audience.
The heroine Daji turned white into a black lotus and participated in the palace battle. The hero Yang Jian adopted this barking dog and she was a girl.
The Nine-tailed Fox is a male, and the Roaring Dog is a female character. Men and women are equal, and there is nothing wrong with them.
Then, Yang Jian and Ji Fa, whose pseudonym was Wu Ji, worshiped Jiang Ziya, who had just come down from the mountain, as their disciples.
That's right, the Twelve Golden Immortals and the real Yuding have all disappeared. In the play, Yuanshi Tianzun only has two apprentices, one is Shen Gongbao and the other is Jiang Ziya.
Shen Gongbao also wore a leopard skin skirt. Those who didn't know it thought he was the boss of some copycat village.
In just four episodes, the shocking plot of "New Legend of the Gods" poisoned a large number of viewers. The ratings dropped rapidly from 1.2 in the first broadcast to just over 1.0 the next day.
The reputation has completely collapsed, with a score as low as 3.3. It is almost guaranteed to be included in the top ten worst TV series this year, and is even qualified to compete for the honor of the worst TV series in 2020.
The director, screenwriter and even the leading actors did not become popular, but instead they all made a fuss. Especially the screenwriter and producer Luo Qian, who was almost hated to death by the people at Jingcheng Channel.
In the past, the advertising fees for the related slots of "New Fengshen Yanyi" were sold at the level of a hit drama. Now, "New Fengshen Yanyi" is in a mess, and advertisers are calling one after another.
To explain.
This matter alone is nothing. The Tai family in Beijing has a huge business, and they can afford to pay some advertising fees and liquidated damages.
In fact, what troubles them the most is that Beijing TV wanted to make "New Legend of the Gods" a big hit and consolidate their status as a first-tier TV station.
As a result, now that the game has gone wrong, the company has lost money and lost face, Jingcheng TV has become disgraced and has lost a lot of face.
If Beijing TV's status as a first-tier TV station was only slightly threatened before, now after such an experience, it is really a bit unstable.
But this has nothing to do with Zuo Le. The success of "New Legend of the Gods" has added fuel to the already popular momentum of "Magic Phone".
On November 7, the ratings of "Magic Phone" were close to 2.5. If it continues like this, it will not be difficult to break 3.
And also because of the good performance of "New Legend of the Gods", there is also the reputation of "Magic Phone".
As the saying goes, don’t be afraid of not knowing the goods, but be afraid of comparing goods.
"Magic Phone" is a fairly good TV series on its own, but now that it is set off by "New Legend of the Gods", it inexplicably becomes a lot taller and more powerful.
Fans who have always insisted on speaking for "Magic Phone" are very proud. Many viewers who previously gave "Magic Phone" negative reviews on Douhua also quietly changed their ratings at this time.
The rating of "Magic Phone" has soared. As of the afternoon of the 7th, it had reached 8.4 points.
Although it can't be compared with Zuo Le's 9-point dramas, it can still be considered average.
To deal with this, Zuo Le specially found someone to add insult to injury and blackmailed Luo Qianyi. Without this stupid trouble, the performance and rating of "Magic Phone" would be even higher now.
Luo Qianqian was defeated in Southern Hunan because of "Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Wuque" and stayed dormant for two years before coming out again, only to return again with a huge defeat.
Now, in the past, Zuo Le beat up the drowned dog to retaliate for the previous slander. Later, Jingcheng Tai was angered by being tricked and almost wanted to ban him to satisfy his hatred.
What's worse is that two consecutive failures have dealt a devastating blow to his reputation. Investors no longer trust him and the audience scorns him.
In desperation, Luo Qian sighed and said, "God will not help me to help Ercao." He temporarily withdrew from the circle to avoid the limelight. He estimated that within a few years, he would be able to go out and do some activities.
And with the current speed of renewal in the entertainment industry, the chances of Luo Qian making a comeback after a few years are slim...
