Chapter 449 Model Husband An Jia and Best Son-in-law Zhang Dongsheng
Yu Entai didn't talk about how he coaxed his mother-in-law back, but in the next few days, "The Hidden Corner" became really popular.
To be more precise, many memes from this online drama have become popular...
Especially Zhang Dongsheng played by Yu Entai in "I will take you to climb the mountain" and "Do you think there is still a chance", plus the little girl Pu Pu in "Little White Boat".
Because as long as these three elements appear in the play, someone will die, so it was nicknamed the "Three Deaths in a Row" by netizens, and countless expressions were made, becoming popular all over the Internet.
Immediately afterwards, major Internet celebrities and self-media started to make jokes, and many scenic spots also followed suit. Together, they suddenly promoted Zhang Dongsheng as the "spokesman of death."
Yu Entai himself has a reference to "Domestic Violence Maniac" An Jiahe, and now coupled with Zhang Dongsheng, he immediately became the target of ridicule by many netizens.
With the titles of "Model Husband An Jiahe" and "Best Son-in-law Zhang Dongsheng", Yu Entai, like Sha Yi before him, has become a star artist with his own viral jokes.
These days, as long as Yu Entai appears in the video, people are everywhere posting comments about "Take you to climb the mountain", "An Jiahe is getting angry", "What a good son-in-law" and so on.
This trend has brought great popularity to Yu Entai, even surpassing some of the previous directors of "Mao Liang".
Yu Entai and Zhang Dongsheng became popular, making "The Hidden Corner" the most popular online drama in August.
"The Hidden Corner" is a web drama that focuses on suspense crimes and also implicitly reflects some social realities such as family marriage, class differentiation, and underage growth.
In fact, as long as you observe carefully, you can see that this drama is actually very restrained in filming, and many things are hinted or only touched upon.
To put it bluntly, this drama is an online drama that you can watch with your brain. It is a work that is truly terrifying to think about.
The plot of the entire drama "The Hidden Corner" is roughly divided into two lines.
One is that Zhang Dongsheng, a teacher at the Children's Palace, killed his father-in-law and his mother-in-law, and was accidentally photographed by Zhu Chaoyang and other three children. The three children used this to blackmail Zhang Dongsheng because they were short of money.
Another line is that Zhu Chaoyang's stepsister Jingjing died unexpectedly. His stepmother believed that he killed her and kept searching for the truth.
All characters and plots revolve around two lines, interspersed with each other, and finally come to an end at the cost of multiple lives.

In the two-line story, the most important characters are the three children and Zhang Dongsheng, and among the three children, Zhu Chaoyang is the most important.
The external publicity of "The Hidden Corner" focuses on Yu Entai, and the cast list also states that he is the male lead, but in fact, judging from the roles, the child Zhu Chaoyang is the real leading star of this drama.
Although the young actor who played this role was participating in a TV series for the first time, he acted with great aura. Not many child actors have such acting skills.
This is thanks to her parents who are professional actors, and her father is also a teacher at the Shanghai Theater Academy. If Wang Qian and her mother hadn't known each other, she might not have been able to discover this gem.
The character of Zhu Chaoyang is very layered. He is a top student and is what many people consider a "good boy".
Precisely because of this, when he is associated with words such as murderer and crime, the perception given to the audience is subversive.
After watching the plot and studying carefully, it is not difficult for the audience to see that this "good boy" himself is not that simple.
Zhu Chaoyang is a single-parent family. His father, the breadwinner of the family, left, married a new wife, and gave birth to a daughter. To a certain extent, he was considered "abandoned" by his father.
In addition, her mother has a strong personality and is very strict with him. Under her constraints, although Zhu Chaoyang is self-disciplined and good at studying, he is mentally repressed and very sensitive.
Such a native family environment and a naturally smart mind make him far more mature than his peers, and relatively speaking, he is more adaptable and inclined towards darkness.
Various small details are used in the play to reflect Zhu Chaoyang's maturity, intelligence, selfishness and caution, as well as his personality that is particularly easy to adapt to the "dark level".
Strictly speaking, this character is the core existence of "The Hidden Corner". If you want to understand it, you must first understand Zhu Chaoyang.
In contrast, the male advocate Dongsheng played by Yu Entai has a lot of depth, but his role is more "instrumental" compared to Zhu Chaoyang.
This son-in-law who killed his wife and family, and then directly and indirectly killed several others, was actually a miserable middle-aged man.
He was bald, had a bad job, was ostracized by his colleagues, looked down upon by his parents-in-law, his wife cheated on him and wanted to divorce him, and various misfortunes in his career and family made him finally collapse and start killing people.
His father-in-law and mother-in-law were pushed off a cliff by him, and his wife drugged her, causing her to suffer from swimming sickness and drowned. Zhang Dongsheng thought he could get rid of the nightmare and eat his wife's family's inheritance.
But he didn't expect that his murder process was accidentally filmed by three children, and then he was blackmailed and forced to fight wits and courage with the three children. During this period, he killed many people due to various reasons, and finally came to a dead end.
Zhang Dongsheng is tragic, but he does not deserve sympathy.
If the murder of his wife and family was excusable before, but then he went on a killing spree, it shows that this person himself is a dangerous personality. Previously, he was shackles from the family. After the shackles were opened, he turned out to be a man-eating demon.
The most exciting thing about "The Hidden Corner" is that except for a few positive characters such as the police, almost all the characters are villains.
Even the three children are not that innocent. Even Zhu Chaoyang is the same kind of person as Zhang Dongsheng to a certain extent, but his underage setting makes it not obvious in the plot.
The names of the two people, Chaoyang-Dongsheng, are almost the hints given by the screenwriter to the audience, no, explicit instructions!
Such a realistic and naked plot may not suit many viewers, but many viewers also like it very much.
"The Hidden Corner" was launched on Penguin Video on August 20, and all twelve episodes were broadcast on August 30. At that time, the total number of views of the drama was 1.9 billion, and the Douhua score was 8.9.
Despite the low number of views, you must know that "The Hidden Corner" has only been aired for 10 days.
At the time, "Mao Liar" was heavily promoted on the entire Internet and became so popular that it took eleven days to break the 4 billion mark.
As a short web drama, "The Hidden Corner" has been able to reach nearly 2 billion views in just 10 days, which is an outstanding performance.
Not to mention, this web drama has a good reputation of 8.9 points, which will continue to attract viewers even when its popularity wanes.
I dare not say more, but it is still very promising to hit 3 billion views.
After several major websites corrected the data, a web drama has more than 1 billion views. Even if it is excellent, with 3 billion views, it is definitely a hit, not to mention that "The Hidden Corner" is only a twelve-episode short story.
.
The current playback calculation model of Penguin Video is - if the playback time of each episode is more than 20 minutes, it will be counted as one playback. If you watch it repeatedly, you have to exit or click refresh to count.
Although the specific details of several other video websites are different, they are similar, and generally speaking, they are similar.
This results in dramas with more episodes taking advantage of dramas with fewer episodes.
Apart from other things, a viewer who watches "The Hidden Corner" three times will only get 36 views, while a 40-episode online drama will only get 4 more views if the audience watches it once.
After this conversion, we can see how difficult it was for "The Hidden Corner" to achieve this result.
It's not comparable to "Mao Liang"'s 10 billion hit, but it's definitely comparable to a normal online drama that's hit 5 billion views...
