288 [Explosive Ratings]
When "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" reached the fifth episode, the ratings suddenly exceeded 60 from 48, and rose up at the speed of the Rockets ascending to the sky.
The audience has already watched too many family grudges in the early Republic of China. Although "The Legend of Miscellaneous Love" is of high quality, it cannot escape the rut of the early Republic of China drama.
However, "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" is different. Since ten years ago, there was a police and gangster in Hong Kong, there was no TV station specializing in shooting police dramas. Nowadays, the police dramas played by TV stations are just a few episodes of anti-corruption promotional videos filmed by Xu Anhua for the Police Department a few years ago.
The police in "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" are all ordinary people, with the joys, sorrows and sorrows of ordinary people. They are not as tall as the police in the promotional video, but are more close to real life. Although these policemen have various shortcomings, and even have people who are waiting to die in police positions, they are generally more positive in general, and the audience is happy to accept such police.
Coupled with the endless humorous dialogues and detailed plot designs, as well as some high-quality fighting scenes and gun battles, for Hong Kong audiences who have not yet experienced the baptism of various police and gangster films, they are simply like magical dramas.
Not only ordinary audiences, but the Hong Kong police are the ones who love to watch this TV series the most. There are even rumors that Yan Liguo, the director of the Police Department who came to Hong Kong with the Governor of New Hong Kong a few months ago, made it clear at the Police Department meeting that "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" is an excellent drama and should be given strong support.
Of course, the Police Department needs to support it. It has been less than ten years since the ICAC was established, and many Hong Kong citizens over 30 still have various prejudices against the police. In recent years, the Police Department has been committed to improving the relationship between the police and the public, and even spent a lot of money to produce promotional videos. Now that with the police drama "Sister Tuo Gun", we must naturally follow the flow and promote the positive image of the police.
Zhong Jinghui is responsible for the external affairs of Phoenix TV. In the past, Lishi's promotion and exchange activities in Nanyang were all led by Zhong Jinghui. This time, after "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" was popular, Zhong Jinghui also contacted the police and quickly received the promise and support from the police.
The next filming of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" will be made strongly in terms of the venue (police station, shooting range, street), props (police cars, police uniforms, firearms) and personnel (police). As long as the simple application process is passed, the Police Department will strongly support it with green lights.
One week after "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" was aired, the ratings had already risen to 67, and there was even a trend of continuing to rise.
Phoenix TV's related advertising fees have also risen all the time. After the ratings of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" exceed 60, even the average production fee of 15,000 per episode will generate a lot of surplus.
In other words, "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" can already make a profit if it is broadcast in Hong Kong. If it can be sold to Singapore and Malaysia, the money you earn in the future will be net income.
Compared with the popularity of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" in Xiangjiang, the drama "The Love of Thousands of Water and Mountains" has been losing streak, and the ratings have been declining.
"Love in Thousands of Water and Mountains" is a super classic TVB drama, which has influenced a whole generation. Unfortunately, I was born at the wrong time and was hit by "Senior Sister Tuo Gun".
How to say it?
There is a feeling that a top martial arts master meets AK47.
The ratings battle between the two dramas is completely asymmetrical battle, because "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" is the first police life drama in Hong Kong, which is too attractive to the audience.
The super popular broadcast of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" is quite similar to the original appearance of "The Legend of Silkworm Transformation" and "Chu Liuxiang". Basically, after 8:30 every night, the crowds on the streets of Hong Kong became scarce, and they rushed home to watch "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" at 9:00.
Major graphic media in Hong Kong, which were originally still watching the prospects of Phoenix TV, commented and reported on the news after "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" was popular.
Since Ma Chengkun and Kang Jianfei have a close personal relationship, the report of "Oriental Daily" is also very direct: "When the ratings of "Tuo Gun" rise to 65, TVB faces a serious problem. That is, whether to cut "Tuo Gun" in half, "The ratings of "Tuo Gun" have fallen below the red line, and advertising revenue has dropped sharply. If you don't cut them in half, TVB will have a dilemma of no profit or even negative profit during the prime time of TVB in the next period. However, the TV series "Tuo Gun" is already excellent enough. It is a real war to lose to "Tuo Gun" and the new dramas that will appear after half, may not exceed the quality of this drama..."
The report of Sing Tao Daily wrote: "The genius producer Madon Bear, screenwriter Saint Xiao Ruoyuan, and a disaster-level producer Kang Jianfei, the gathering of these three people created the magical drama "Senior Sister Tuo Gun". Outsiders have no idea how the three of them burst into sparks of inspiration, but it is certain that "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" will create a type of drama, that is, a Hong Kong-style police drama."
Ming Pao Weekly used several pages to print stills of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" and also interviewed the leading actors of the show.
Wan Ziqiu said in an interview: "The role of Chen Xiaosheng is a very big challenge for me. He is very nervous and smart, and he looks honest and actually has a bad habit. I am very grateful to Mr. Kang and Director Mai for giving me this opportunity to challenge my own acting skills."
Chen Xiuwen said, "Of course I have to thank Mr. Kang. I will release records this year. Yes, I have signed a contract with Fengxing Records Company. The theme song and interlude of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" will be included in this record."
Wenhui Po, which has always been a serious reporting style, also praised this time: "Senior Sister Tuo Gun promotes social integrity and is close to life. It is a masterpiece that combines reality and romanticism. The planning of this drama is based on the hands of Mr. Kang Jianfei, which makes people admire it..."
This TV comment from Wenhui Po made many people feel very strange. Could it be that the mainland government is showing goodwill to Kang Jianfei?
In addition to saying good things, there are naturally various criticisms. For example, the tabloid "Xiangjiang Morning Post" wrote in order to attract readers' attention: "Sister Tuo Gun" is too beautifying police officers and has flattered the police department..."

Wang Tianlin moved his fat body into Fang Yihua's office, sat down without hesitation and said, "Sixth Sister-in-law, do you want to kill "The Love of Thousands of Water and Mountains" in half? If you want to kill the drama, just say it, I lost embarrassingly this time, and there is nothing to explain."
Fang Yihua shook her head, not only did not blame Wang Tianlin, but instead smiled and comforted: "Tianlin, you don't have to blame yourself. "The Love of Thousands of Water and Mountains" was very good. I asked you to come this time because I wanted you to continue filming with peace of mind."
Wang Tianlin asked: "What should I do if the ratings are there?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I will deal with it." Fang Yihua looked confident.
Wang Tianlin looked at Fang Yihua and said nothing, so he said goodbye and left. As for Fang Yihua's instructions to him not worry about the ratings, he naturally had already made up his mind to move back to the game in a disgraceful way.
Wang Tianlin and Kang Jianfei have half a master-disciple relationship. Although they have not had much contact recently, their son Wang Jing and Kang Jianfei have always had a good relationship.
Kang Jianfei was once a talent that Wang Tianlin was optimistic about, and Wang Tianlin was also very pleased that he was able to make a name for himself. But now the TV series produced by Wang Tianlin has been fucked by this young man and his ratings have been scattered. His mood is really complicated.
Wang Tianlin didn't want to ask about how Fang Yihua wanted to use the means, and would not inform Kang Jianfei in advance, just pretending that nothing had happened.
After Wang Tianlin left the office, the smile on Fang Yihua's face disappeared immediately. She didn't like to use evil ways, but at this time, as long as she could win, it didn't matter what method she used.
Shirley Shirley has been in Hong Kong for many years and has a wide connection, but it cannot be said that he is a big move. Especially this year, the Hong Kong and British government personnel changes, from the Hong Kong Governor to the Police Commissioner below, all of them have just taken office. Shirley Shirley doesn't have much weight to speak in front of them.
Moreover, "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" has now received full support from the Police Department. If Fang Yihua wants to destroy this TV series, it is impossible for the government to find a way out.
As for those who play bad things, unless the wireless station is on the verge of bankruptcy, neither Shaw nor Fang Yihua will use this trick. Shaw and Jin Yong were both messed with by others at that time. Shaw Brothers and Ming Pao were each fired, but the result was that the two gained sympathy from public opinion. Not only did their opponents not knock them down, they gave them a higher social reputation.
Moreover, with the character shown by Kang Jianfei, he is definitely a vengeful person. Everyone plays everything according to the rules. The Taiwanese Wenshan Gang broke the rules and is still lying on the bed. If he really uses a means of setting fire and kidnapping, he will make Kang Jianfei angry. God knows what he can do.
Even black and white are not good, Fang Yihua can only find ways from other aspects.
To destroy the ratings of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun", the most effective way is to prevent a major character from continuing to play.
If you are a little more straightforward, just break the leg of a starring actor, but now the two TV stations are competing hard, so playing this game is easy to make a fuss.
Fang Yihua decided to dig out the dark history of the starring actors from the perspective of public opinion. "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" is a righteous drama supported by the Police Department. If any actor has dark history, what qualifications are there to continue playing the role of the police?
Fang Yihua carefully studied the information of the four leading actors. Among them, Wan Ziqi's past experience is a model of artists' struggle and dedication, and there is nothing to be criticized. The heroine Zheng Wenya is born as a Hong Kong lady, and blackening Zheng Wenya is equivalent to blackening the TVB herself. Mo Shaocong also has no special experience, and his life experience is very innocent.
Only Chen Xiuwen, who once hosted an adult show, has been criticized before. In addition, Chen Wenxiu plays the second female lead, the role is no weaker than the heroine, and can be used as a target!
As for Mo Shaocong, he is not very famous or very expensive, so it is best to buy such an actor.
