Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 115: Surprise, ecstasy

During the day, fans of the drama in April on major websites were criticizing Su Yan and criticizing him in a disgusting way.

At night, when this trailer came out, it changed, everything changed
"So this is the choice that Su Yan, the old thief, made in the eleventh episode? Gong Yuan Xun's disease is not actually a terminal illness?"

"Of course. Is surgery necessary for a terminal illness? Diseases that can be cured by surgery definitely have a success rate. The only difference is how big the success rate is."

"After watching April's drama last night, I just felt empty inside. I didn't fall asleep the whole night, and I didn't cry. But after seeing the preview of the if-line ending, I really couldn't hold it back. Su Yan, the old thief, is really good at tricking people into tears!"

“But wouldn’t it have an impact if a TV series was operated this way?”

"What is the impact? The trailer has clearly stated that the ending broadcast by the TV station is the orthodox ending, and the if-line ending is a supplementary benefit plot. It's like the parallel world in scientific theory."

"Yes, parallel worlds cannot be confirmed or disproven. We don't know whether there is another world outside of the Xia Kingdom plane with similar culture and customs as Xia Kingdom. It's just that there are certain differences in the torrent of history, which eventually formed two different worlds. If there is a world where Miyazono Kaoru's surgery failed, then there will naturally be a world where Miyazono Kaoru's surgery succeeded... Su Yan, the old thief, just showed us the development of different world lines of this work. What's the problem?"

"It turns out that old thief Su Yan had a plan. I'm crying. Did he think of filming a double ending from the beginning?"

"Not necessarily. This if-line preview only said that Miyazono Kaoru might adopt another medical team's plan before the operation, but it didn't say that the plan would definitely succeed! Is it possible that the ending of Su Yan the old thief will torture us again in another way?"

"."

"."

"No way, absolutely impossible."

"Unless he doesn't want to continue working in this industry, I don't believe he is so immoral."

"Don't think about it. Since there is a second ending, it must be a happy and joyful one. Don't say anything else. Just believe him. Trust him one last time."

"I don't believe in the old thief Su Yan. But I believe that if there really is a parallel world, there will always be a branch where Gong Yuan Xun can survive. Su Yan, if you still have a little humanity, then heal me once, even if it's just once!"

"Anyway, I don't recognize the TV version as the finale. If the if-oriented ending is a happy one, I will automatically delete the TV version from my brain!"

"Me too. I've been abused so many times by the old thief Su Yan, he should be normal for once, right?"

"Come on Miyazono Kaori, come on Arima Kousei. Come on old thief Su Yan, come on Shen Liqian. As long as you can survive this ending, I will be your fan for life!"

"You'll be online on Friday night, right? I'll trust you, Su Yan, just once. If you fool me again this time, you'll definitely lose a fan forever."

"I suddenly remembered that the post with more than 100,000 likes last night seemed to say that he would just binge watch any of Su Yan's works. Will he watch the second ending in April? I'm looking forward to the scene of him bingeing on the live broadcast."

Just as Su Yan and Shinozaki Ikumi expected, the reaction in the market caused by the preview of the second ending in April was even stronger than after the true ending was aired last night.

If this kind of if-line ending is broadcast directly, the audience's feeling is likely to be "Oh, so that's it, Miyazono Kaoru's surgery was successful!"

But if the if-line ending is broadcast after the original ending, the audience's perception will be completely changed.

It will feel like the resurrection of Nagisa Furukawa at the end of Clannad.

There is only a thin line between depression and recovery.

You don’t know the importance of something until you lose it.

For the current April fans.
As long as Miyazono Kaori can survive in the if-line ending, April will be the undisputed masterpiece.

They will automatically regard the if-line ending as the true ending, and as for the original ending, they will regard it as a supplement to the if-line ending!
It only took one night for April's fans to spread the news of April's second ending through various channels to the four major online streaming platforms.

What happened next was something that was difficult for the Xia media to understand.

After the April finale was aired last night, in just one night, Su Yan topped the list of the most hated star in the voting among Xiaguo’s male movie stars this quarter.

Then tonight, the most popular male star in Xia Country this quarter was immediately replaced.

April fans once again lifted Su Yan up strongly.

What does it mean to change your face? This is what it means to change your face.

In April, fans cursed and swore at Su Yan for the whole day. But Su Yan successfully reversed their impression of him with just a preview video of the second ending.

It really is, it was completely controlled by applause.

As for Shen Liqian.
After this trailer came out, a bunch of clips about her role as Kaori Miyazono, and videos made by fans themselves emerged on the Internet like mushrooms after rain.

Before the show started airing in April, her status among Xiaguo’s female stars was already a weak first-tier star. If no new show starts airing, she will most likely fall out of the first-tier ranks and no one will care about her anymore.

But now, her reputation in the industry is a bit exaggerated.

Where is the weak line?

Just talking about these few days, her popularity is so high that no other female star in Xia country can compare with her.

There are a lot of her fans on the four major online streaming platforms, and a large number of slices and videos have popped up.

Netizens spoke up for her in various ways, and there were a lot of posts criticizing Yoshitoki Akasaka.

Even because of the drama "April", the number of fans of Su Yan and Shen Liqian's CP is growing at an exaggerated rate. Xiaguo's April fans are eagerly looking forward to the second ending in three days.

Normally, this is the time when the three major TV stations promote new dramas for the next season.

Now?

We don't care what new drama comes out next season.
[Your Lie in April has a new ending, and the depressed screenwriter Su Yan is kind enough to meet the fans' wishes. 】

[The ending of the April if line will be exclusively broadcast on Raccoon.com at 8pm on Friday. All regrets will be made up.]

[Even Su Yan couldn't resist the resentment of Xia Guo's millions of fans. The second ending in April became a symbol of his first compromise with the audience! ]

[April is full of joy, the ending of the April if line is coming, and the true ending is here! ]

The media in Xia Country also cooperated well and took turns reporting information about April over the next few days.

Shen Liqian's heart pounded every day as she stared at the information about herself on the Internet in her villa.

She is very clear that through the role of Miyazono Kaoru, she has returned to her peak, or it may be inaccurate to say that now is the real peak of her acting career.

She has never had as much influence in the acting industry as she does today.

Just now, the agent called again, and it was an invitation to play the female lead in two dramas on Shanghai TV and Zhongxia TV in two seasons.

It wasn't an audition, it was a direct invitation.

With Shen Liqian's current popularity, except for Sakura TV's Akasaka Yoshitoki who still had to put up with his old face and not take any action, the other two TV stations basically completely forgot about the unspoken rule of banning Akasaka Yoshitoki.

When it comes to making money, your face, Akasaka Yoshitoki, has no weight at all.

"Reject their invitation." Shen Liqian said to her agent without any hesitation.

"Eh? That's an invitation to play the leading role in a big-budget drama by Zhongxia Television and Shanghai Television!" said the agent He Qihua in surprise.

"The role of Miyazono Kaoru is enough for me to maintain popularity in the Xia country's film and television industry for a long time. But I will have to wait and see for a while about my next film." Shen Liqian said softly.

"Wait and see for a while? Maybe."

"That's right. Based on my understanding of Su Yan, it is absolutely impossible for him to not take any action for two consecutive quarters. Compared with cooperating with Shanghai TV and Zhongxia TV, I would rather wait for news from Su Yan." Shen Liqian said.

On Thursday, Su Yan finally moved out of the rental house where he had lived in this world for a year and moved into a rented villa.

The revenue from Your Lie in April advertising placements, overseas broadcast copyright fees, peripheral fees, plus the 12 million broadcast introduction fee from Aoki TV totaled nearly 25 million.

But the biggest figure is the data that the average paid playback volume of the episode on Raccoon.com exceeded 13 million.

Even if it's a 50-50 split between the two sides, it would still be more than 70 million.

And that doesn’t even include the sales of the second episode in April.

However, these profits are deductible from corporate income tax
In April, the drama brought Su Yan's company a total revenue of at least 7300 million.

After all, Su Yan is just the boss of a film and television company and he doesn't have a TV station under his control. If a drama like April is put in the hands of the three major TV stations, the advertising fees of the TV stations in a single quarter will be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, and those online broadcasting platforms are also controlled by the TV stations. The TV stations basically make all the money from the online broadcasting sales of the TV series.

With the show being broadcast on the three major TV stations, those TV stations might be able to earn 100 million or 200 million from April.

But Su Yan can only earn this much from this drama in April if he works alone.

But that's enough.
A profit margin of over 300% is an extremely exaggerated figure.

Although it wouldn't make Su Yan too proud.

But I'm not so afraid to afford a villa and a car with a rent of hundreds of thousands of yuan a year.

Money is made to be spent.

Lying on the soft bed in the big house, looking at the neighborhood scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and the warm sunlight shining into the room, Su Yan sighed.

"That's great!"

For the next day or two, Su Yan relaxed his mind and body. It was too late to produce TV series for the next season, so he simply drove to some tourist attractions around Shanghai to travel, shop and have fun.

I've been in this world for a year, can't I enjoy and relax for a few days?

But it was Friday.
While Su Yan was still in another city admiring the night view of a local scenic spot, fans of Your Lie in April gathered again tonight.

Unlike before, everyone just regarded Raccoon.com as a communication platform and was just waiting for the Qingkong TV series to start airing.

Nowadays
Raccoon.com is the home court.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the ending of April's if line will be online on time.
