Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 159: The Lotus Tower, Not Favored by Passersby

Chapter 159: The Lotus Tower, Not Favored by Passersby
After becoming famous, I no longer need help from friends when my new drama is airing.

Zhu Yilong, Bai Yu, Zhang Wanyi and others still posted on Weibo to help promote the event. As for the others, Xu Yien, who hadn't been in contact with them for a long time, didn't care much.

Xu Yien himself is the best publicity, not to mention there are so many passers-by who are giving him tips.

It's only the second day.

The popularity successfully exceeded 9000.

Kiwi fruit arranged for ground promotion and large-screen advertising.

In addition to Xu Yien, the other main promoters are Xiao Shunyao and Zeng Shunxi. However, compared with Xu Yien, Kiwi has arranged very few ground-based advertisements.

The main publicity and promotion is still on Xu Yien. As for the female characters, they are not famous at all, so there is no publicity and promotion at all.

After the ground wide freshly baked.

Many fans went to the big screen at the intersection where there was a square to check in.

Even though I can't see him in person, it's not difficult to take a photo with Xu Yien's face.

Yi En, who squatted on the ground and ate birthday cake when there was only one fan celebrating his birthday on the set, is now a big star that can be seen everywhere in the country.

All the past events are medals. Other actors said it was just a Weibo update, but Xu Yien said it was a true portrayal.

The fans were very encouraged because Xu Yien's previous resources were too poor. He had been at Dongfang Feiyun for five years, and it was only after Ye Kai that he encountered a subject that could become well-known.

The audience also agreed: "Why didn't Xu Yien seem angry or depressed when he was not famous before, but instead had a calm and natural look? Maybe it's because he didn't push his self-awareness to the whole world, which is why he became the chosen Li Lianhua."

It’s just that “Lotus Tower” hasn’t reached its exciting stage yet, so we’ll have to wait until two episodes are updated at 8 o’clock tonight.

The show only got better when Di Feisheng appeared again in episode 8.

So who poisoned Li Xiangyi? When watching the first episode, I naturally thought it was Di Feisheng, but the eighth episode reversed it.

Di Feisheng dreams of becoming the best in the world. Such a person desires to win with real swords and guns. He disdains such low-level means as poisoning. Then the poison that Li Xiangyi was poisoned with is very strange. Is it for love, or for power, or both.

The three men's investigation into the case and their friendship that is closer than brothers makes the drama's underworld atmosphere sublime again. The first few episodes are just appetizers.

The main goal is to find clues and slowly uncover the ten-year conspiracy against Li Xiangyi.

In this way, there is suspense, and the audience will follow the drama with this question, and a sense of participation will arise.

In other words, the audience's stickiness will become stronger and they will not give up the show easily. On the other hand, after the eighth episode, in addition to suspense, "Lotus Tower" also gave the audience a new way to interact and express their feelings, that is, CP.

Di Feisheng and Li Xiangyi have a mutual admiration and rivalry, which creates a dramatic tension that Fang Duobing lacks. Fang Duobing feels like a child, without the, how should I put it, alternative "love-hate" atmosphere between Di Feisheng and Li Xiangyi.

But the most important thing about this kind of interaction is the solid plot itself.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Nirvana in Fire is so popular is that the plot itself is good.

There are still a few days before joining the group.

Xu Yien ran to Li Yitong's house and immersed himself in his sister's gentle embrace. Who in the family would understand? It was so wonderful.

Lying on the sofa, the two of them leaned against each other, each browsing their phones...

This is so realistic. Li Yitong asked: "Congratulations on breaking 9000 in popularity. Our leading man's drama is popular again."

"You will also be popular when "Ashes of Love" is broadcast next year," said Xu Yien.

"Yeah, I'm born with a cold constitution, so I don't want to drag you down with it." Li Yitong said self-deprecatingly, but he wasn't disappointed because it was the truth. He then added, "I've finished all six episodes. Can you give me a spoiler for what's next?"

"No, spoilers wouldn't be fun." Xu Yien refused and said with a smile, "We'll watch the show together in real time later, and you can write me your review then."

"Oh, you're really strict."

"Tsk, thank goodness your play doesn't have any romance, otherwise I wouldn't want to watch it. Out of sight, out of mind is best." Li Yitong snorted.

Xu Yien scratched his right cheek, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Who isn't? This is also the reason why I don't visit your crew. Otherwise, it always feels very weird."

"What to eat?"

"Everything is fine."

Li Yitong grabbed a handful of Wangzai snacks from the coffee table and handed them to him, "Here, eat."

"I thought you were asking me about dinner?"

"Just cook it yourself. You're a much better cook than me anyway."

"Hmm..." Xu Yien looked at her with a hint of resentment. "Hmm what? Anyway, we have the ingredients, so I'll leave this task to you, baby."

"Ok."

……

……

On the Internet, Douban's [Ratings Research Center Group] started a discussion. In terms of data, this group is much more reliable than the fans on Weibo who blindly praise things and are not objective or neutral at all.

The things fans brag about are always weird. As long as there are enough qualifiers, everyone is a champion. Such a championship has no real value.

The people in the professional data group are more reliable, and they are considered to be torturing and derogatory in the eyes of fans, but most of the time they do analyze the data from the perspective of passers-by to see whether the drama is popular or not.

Title: [Lotus Tower finally failed to break through 9800, with a maximum of . It feels like it may open high and close flat.]

"We'll know tomorrow's trend. There's no need to bet so early."

"Let's get past 9500 first, 9800 is still early."

"It seems a bit aggrieved now. There should be a group of viewers who like refreshing dramas who will wait and see the rest of the plot before considering whether to pick it up again."

"I don't know if it will break through ten thousand or not, but Lotus Tower is a good show, it's quite interesting."

"The Lotus Building is quite beautiful anyway, so if it can't be destroyed, then it can be destroyed."

"Lotus House is not a cool drama."

Reply to the above: "But the audience doesn't know. From the beginning of the show, many people were expecting the king to return. These days, most audiences like to watch exciting dramas. I just watched the ending on the set. I was originally going to follow it on time, but I instantly lost interest. I advise fans not to base their recommendations on the book. Otherwise, not many people like to see such a frustrating ending these days. Especially male audiences, seeing Miss Qiao and the male supporting actor together in the trailer is a huge turn-off."

Someone else also agreed: "Indeed, I felt very sorry for Li Lianhua at the end of the book, but it didn't have the same exciting and sad feeling as Nirvana in Fire. It was only sad."

"There's nothing wrong with the Lotus Tower drama, it's entertaining and the logic is sound, but the promotion and marketing is not very good!"

"The main reason is that Zi Mei's summer drama 'Go Go Squid!' was a huge hit. 'Lotus Tower' needs to have something to stand out from the crowd if it wants to stand out. I've watched the first six episodes and my impression is that it's watchable. The subject matter is limited, and not everyone can get it. But just looking at Li Xian's face, I guess he won't be as popular as Yi En. If Yi En's show is a hit and his character Li Xiangyi becomes a hit, then he can boast about being a hit for two years and three times. Yi En's ability to attract fans is really unmatched. I bet that in three months, Li Xian will only have about 6 fans who check in."

"The plot of Lotus Tower is generally okay, but it lacks a hit point, a marketing point that can attract a large audience. I think this theme can really be broadcasted very well, as the poster said, at 9800.

Although everyone says that costumed martial arts detective stories are not a niche genre, with films like Shao Bao coming out in the past, I feel that most directors now focus more on romance (although there are not many who can make romance well, and martial arts detective stories are even rarer);

There are no good scripts, let alone directors who can make good films with half the scripts. I think if the popularity is 9500+ and the other data are good and the reputation is good, it can be considered a good broadcast."

"This drama is a good one, with a good plot. It will be broadcast on CCTV later. The publicity and promotion are not good, but good dramas gradually gain popularity through word of mouth. After all, it is not like those ancient idol dramas or fairy tales. I personally am still optimistic about it. Even if it doesn't fail in the end, it is a good drama without any water injection. I think it will have a good long tail."

"I think Lotus House was already of good quality, and today's two episodes are getting even better. The fact that it's now over 9800 on Maoyan proves that there are fans watching it. I don't know if it will be average, but I'm still very optimistic about the follow-up plot."

"I honestly don't see how this theme can appeal to the general public. Compared to ancient idol dramas, it's a niche genre. However, I can see that the male lead has a lot of attention, and this time he has proven his appeal. This is the first time he has played the leading male role in a Taobao drama. The current plot has received good reviews. As long as the rhythm is stable, the long tail will be good."

In short.

The rationalists in the data group are actually not very optimistic about "Lotus Tower".

Their pessimism means that the show won't flop, but they expect it to just be a mediocre hit. They think it's difficult for it to become a hit.

Although Xu Yien’s acting is indeed good, the fighting scenes in the East China Sea in the first episode are indeed amazing.

But the plot of the first few episodes was still too scattered.

None of the six episodes entered the main plot, just like the novel is full of daily life. Some viewers can accept it, while others cannot, which is also human nature.

Xu Yien thinks that the steady and improving popularity of "Lotus Tower" is quite good.

Just keep the plot good.

Occasionally doing business on Douyin can attract passers-by to watch.

Buying hot searches on Weibo is really not as good as doing business on Douyin.

Xu Yien is not currently focused on the drama, because the success or failure of the show depends on the production company's marketing strategy and the audience's likes and dislikes.

These things are not something that actors can control.

Word of mouth is something that not everyone can have.

Standing in Tongtong's kitchen, Xu Yien is already familiar with the place and knows exactly where everything is. He comes here often and it feels like his own home. Mainly because in early August, both of them will join new crews. If they don't take on "Miss You So Much" and "The Wonderful Girl", they can team up again in "Mr. Zhou" and "One Life, One World".

But it’s not a pity.

"Zhou Sheng Ru Gu" is worse than "Lotus Tower" in terms of reputation and popularity.
