Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 318 Setting
For the current film and television industry in Xia Country, people are no longer too surprised that Su Yan's new drama has shown quality that exceeds industry standards after it was aired.

In the past few years, Su Yan has proved his strength time and time again, and through these experiences he has attracted a large number of fans to gather around him.

Although the opening ratings of "Code Geass" exceeding 6.5% are exaggerated, the industry has been shocked by Su Yan too many times in the past and everyone has become numb.

Most of Su Yan’s colleagues’ first reaction when seeing the news media reporting this news extensively was “Oh, he broke the record again naturally! And it’s the record of his previous work!”.

Because this kind of thing has happened too many times, everyone has become numb, so they are too lazy to be shocked, and colleagues are too lazy to envy or hate.

After all, we know that we are not competitors on the same level. Instead of treating Su Yan as an enemy, it is better to think about how to take over the market that Su Yan cannot take over.

No matter how talented Su Yan is, he only produces one drama in a quarter, and it is only broadcast for one hour in more than a hundred hours a week.

To put it bluntly, Su Yan lay down when his colleagues in Xia State were facing him.

The same goes for Su Yan’s fans. They won’t care about ratings, insults, or rankings like they did before. They’re always number one anyway, so what’s there to care about?

Therefore, the media reports on the ratings of Code Geass did not have much traffic. During this week, Su Yan's fans were more concerned about the setting of the show, the mecha models in it, and when the peripheral products of the Lancelot driven by the second male lead Suzaku Kururugi would be released.

Soon, it was the second week of July, and after a week of fermentation, Lelouch's fame quickly spread throughout Xia Country.

What surprised everyone most about the show’s performance after it was aired was not its performance in Xia Country.

Due to the time difference, the broadcast of the drama Code Geass was delayed by 12 to 24 hours on TV stations in six overseas countries.

In addition, nk.com, the second largest overseas video website that has cooperated with Su Yan many times, was delayed by one day in its launch.

Although Su Yan spent a lot of money on advertising on these TV stations and platforms, the first episode of Code Geass ranked among the top three in the ratings of the six major regions that week, and even ranked first in three regions.

And among all the new TV series and movies that have been launched on nk.com in the past month, the online broadcast data of Code Geass Season 1 is undoubtedly the first.

When fsn was broadcast overseas, it was to make Su Yan familiar to foreign fan groups, attract popularity and build his fame.

The success of fsn has made it extremely easy for Lelouch, whose main character is almost entirely a member of fsn, to be spread among foreign fan groups.

After all, the actors who play the three main characters of FSN, Gilgamesh, Shirou Emiya, and Altria, are actually the actors who play the three main characters of Code Geass, Lelouch, Suzaku Kururugi, and CC.

In the afternoon, Chu Yi turned his eyes away from the latest trailer of Weathering With You released on the official website of Dimension Films.

As amazing as ever, and still has the same flavor as Five Seconds and Your Name.

Although it is only mid-July, the pre-sale box office of this movie has exceeded 90 million, and it is likely that the pre-sale box office will exceed 100 million in a few days.

But today, when Chu Yi opened the online forum, as he expected, it was flooded with posts analyzing the plot of Code Geass, as usual.

After browsing the posts for more than two hours, Chu Yi let out a long breath, looked at the time, ordered a takeaway, and then had dinner and took a shower. Finally, the time for Lelouch to start was approaching.
At this time, the ratings of Zhongxia TV began to rise, the activity of major online forums doubled, and hot search terms about Lelouch frequently appeared on the rankings of major websites.

At eight o'clock, the second episode of Code Geass begins.

The plot continues from the end of last week, Lelouch killed his half-brother Clovia with his own hands. Then he used the power of Geass to learn from Clovia that the cause of his mother's death might be related to the second prince and the second princess.
At this point, the names of Lelouch's two biggest enemies in the first and second seasons of the show have been announced.

Schneizel and Cornelia.
Chu Yi frowned. These foreign names were really hard to remember.

But forget it. After all, Su Yan's drama is intended to open up the overseas market, so he still has to make some compromises. As long as it makes money, it's not shameful.

The drama "Code Geass" actually runs through the entire work, with both light and dark lines.

The main plot is about the daily life of Lelouch, a good student at Ashford Academy.

The hidden thread is the various identities of the students in this school behind the scenes.

Lelouch, the leader of the revolutionary army, Kallen, the ace pilot who is Lelouch's top fighter, Suzaku, the second male lead who was abused by countless people in Su Yan's previous life, and the teacher who is a member of the Britannian Empire's army and came to the school as a spy.
There is also the second female character, Shirley, who has a crush on Lelouch but whose father died in a battle commanded by Lelouch's alias, Zero.
On the surface, this is a group of harmonious and friendly teachers and students.

In secret, everyone puts on masks and sits in the cockpit, killing each other on the battlefield. Everyone has a blood feud with each other. But everyone does not know each other's identities behind the scenes for the time being, and they are still getting along in harmony and maintaining a sincere classmate relationship.

These entanglements are also the highlights of this drama.

In the first episode, the world view is laid out, and in the second episode, the perspective begins to shift to Lelouch's school life.

Nunnally, Lelouch's blind and paralyzed sister, is his weak spot.

Although he is an excellent student but not very good at sports, he has many close friends in school.

Among them, Shirley, who was obviously in love with Lelouch as soon as she appeared on the stage, left a deep impression on Chu Yi.

The president of the student union, an introverted girl in the student union, an Einstein who loves science. If it were the audience of Su Yan's previous life, one could tell from her name what earth-shaking things this girl would do in the future, but the audience of Xia Country had no feeling at all.

These characters who appear now and seem to be just extras are all extremely crucial figures in the later plot.

Although she is a newcomer, she is so beautiful!
but
"It doesn't have the same feeling as when Su Yan, Shen Liqian, and Gu Qingyuan were filming. The three of them are the iron triangle. The others are just good-looking, but their coordination with the old thief is far from enough."

Chu Yi took a deep breath and continued reading.

The transfer student incident in Su Yan's previous life was a very popular topic and was still a very novel setting when Lelouch of the Legend was broadcast.

In Xiaguo
When Kallen came to Lelouch's class as a transfer student, Chuuyi almost spit out his tea.

?

Isn't this woman a revolutionary from District 11?
How did she come to the Britannia aristocratic school where Lelouch studied as a transfer student?

But soon, the plot gave the answer. She was mixed-race, but she considered herself to be from District 11, so she attended an aristocratic school on the surface, but secretly joined the revolutionary army and fought against the Britannian army with guns.
