This director is so innocent.

The broadcast response to Chapter 136, "W - Two Worlds"

It's common knowledge that idol dramas are great at making stars.

"W - Two Worlds" is an idol drama disguised as a fantasy romance suspense drama.

A 5.4% premiere rating is something to celebrate for most TV dramas.

But for "W: Two Worlds," it only met expectations; there's still a long way to go before champagne celebrations.

Since Su Jin became a sensation after starring in "Struggle", his popularity has remained high for the past few months.

In August, he put together an all-star chorus.

In September, he released his self-titled album "Su Jin", which gained him a group of fans.

In October, the film "The Coffin in the Mountain," which he wrote, directed, and starred in, was released.

With his addition to the "100 Million Yuan Box Office Director Club," his popularity soared, and he also gained a group of movie fans.

In November, he criticized "Lust, Caution," and was hailed as a spiritual leader by some well-meaning people.

In December, he said that the claim that "Hong Kong and Taiwan actors have box office appeal" was nonsense.

Of course, Hunan TV also made a significant contribution.

For example, every television station under Hunan Broadcasting and Television has been banned from prime time.

Moreover, it also exchanged at least five million worth of GG resources with its partners.

In addition, each of the Super Girls under Tianyu Entertainment wrote a blog post to promote "W One Two Worlds".

All of the above factors contributed to the phenomenal start with a 5.4% viewership rating for the premiere, which subsequently climbed steadily.

The second day's figure was 6.7%.

The third day's figure was 7.8%.

On the eighth day, the viewership rating broke 10.

This day was because Kang Chul had traveled from the world of a comic book to the real world, something everyone was eagerly anticipating.

It's generating a lot of buzz online, with many people discussing it on Tianya, Douban, and Tieba.

It wasn't just women watching; many men were watching too, and everyone had a maternal smile on their face.

The women looked at Su Jin, while the men looked at Da Mei Yuan.

"W - Two Worlds" is different from typical idol dramas.

No car accidents, no cancer, no amnesia, no wicked mother-in-law, no domineering CEO, just sweetness, the whole story is full of sweetness.

Starting from the second episode, there is a kissing scene in every episode.

"Sisters, how can I marry Su Jin? I need help urgently."

"I'm marking this up. Sister, if you know the solution, please let me know. May you live a long and peaceful life."

"It seems we sisters are kindred spirits, knowing that good people live peaceful lives. May I borrow your book to talk to you?"

"Can you guys talk about the show normally and stop with the inappropriate content? I'm still in middle school, don't lead me astray."

"After watching 'W—Two Worlds,' I just can't stand any other idols anymore. Am I the only one who feels this way?"

"No, I'm the same as you. I used to think Taiwanese idol dramas were pretty good, but after watching 'Two Worlds,' I couldn't watch them at all."

The costumes are tacky, the characters are ugly, and the plot is melodramatic, featuring either a princess or a prince, and even amnesia.

"Yes, yes, the styling is so outdated, it looks like a rural-urban fringe area. I used to enjoy watching it and even tried to copy its outfits. I must have been out of my mind."

"The visuals are so beautiful, every frame could be used as wallpaper."

"You're all discussing the styling, but don't you think this drama is really sweet? There's a kissing scene in every episode, and I was smiling like a proud aunt the whole time."

The funny thing is, I got my boyfriend watching it too, and he got hooked as well. The next day, when I suggested going shopping, he didn't want to go; he wanted to keep watching.

"My boyfriend is the same way. That jerk is so engrossed in watching it, even more so than I am. I should have never brought him along."

"So, am I the only single guy watching this?"

The plot is also full of twists and turns, making it captivating.

From the moment Kang Chul became world champion, before he could even enjoy the glory, he was suddenly labeled a murderer, nearly killed himself, and then learned he was the protagonist of a comic book.

The plot is full of suspense and a bit mind-bending; if you don't pay close attention, you might not understand it.

Many people watch it because the plot is exciting.

Of course, the people who like to watch this kind of drama are mostly young people and middle school students; middle-aged and elderly people don't watch this kind of TV series.

They like to watch serious dramas, family dramas.

Just as Huang Jiaqiang said, Su Jin is in the spotlight again.

Unlike the previous hit "Struggle", this time it's incredibly popular. If you can't imagine it, you can refer to the popularity of Professor Do.

The number of followers on my personal Baidu Tieba account has skyrocketed from over 300,000 to 500,000 and is now heading towards the 600,000 mark.

The number of followers on her blog is even more staggering, previously around 300,000, now reaching 550,000, breaking Xu Cairen's previous record for the number of followers.

Furthermore, the blog's page views have exceeded 100 million, breaking the record of over 100 million page views that Xu Cairen set just last month.

His salary skyrocketed, with his per-episode salary for TV dramas increasing from 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, making him the highest-paid actor per episode for mainland Chinese TV dramas.

Despite the high price, many companies still send him scripts.

Currently, the highest-paid actors in mainland China are Li Youbing, Chen Daoming, Chen Baoguo, and Zhang Guoli, who are in the top tier and earn around 250,000 yuan per episode.

The second tier is around 200,000 per episode, such as those starring Huang Xiaoming, Chen Kun, and Sun Honglei.

The third tier is around 150,000 per episode, which is for those who are somewhat famous, like Yang Mi, who is charged this price.

The movie salary was outrageous, jumping directly from 200,000 to 2 million.

Yes, you read that right, and you didn't miswrite it.

His previous movie salary was 200,000 yuan. When he starred in "The Coffin in the Mountain", that was the price. This was with the added benefit of his status as a writer, which he added himself.

Otherwise, it would be like Sister Xia's, 100,000 yuan.

This is only because the production team had sufficient funds. If they didn't, they would only have ten or twenty thousand yuan, and the production team could choose whether or not to act.

Of course, things are different now.

After "Struggle" became a hit, the film's salary rose to 500,000 yuan, but that's an inflated figure. If you were actually invited, you wouldn't get that price at all; it would probably be around 300,000 to 400,000 yuan.

After the release of "The Coffin in the Mountain," his salary for the film increased again to 800,000 yuan, this time for real.

After all, the title of "director with a box office of 100 million yuan" is there, unlike popularity, which is invisible and intangible.

The reason he was quoted as 200,000 is because he only starred in one movie, "The Coffin in the Mountain," and never starred in any other movies after that.

A two million yuan salary seems high, but it's nothing. It's the same salary as any third-tier Hong Kong or Taiwanese artist.

Even so, he was still the highest-paid actor in mainland China's film industry.

GG has also received quite a few endorsement offers.

Previously, mainland Chinese artists rarely received high-end fashion resources because their costumes in TV dramas were considered too unfashionable.

This time it's different. Su Jin's outfits in the drama are incredibly stylish. Even a casual piece of her clothing becomes a fashion benchmark, leading the fashion trend.

Dior, Gucci, and Armani have all extended collaboration invitations.

Armani even wanted him to become their Asian brand ambassador, offering him 3000 million for two years.

Car brands also have GG as their spokesperson, such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi. It's not their overseas headquarters, but joint ventures.

In the end, I chose Mercedes-Benz. The other party was more sincere and offered 4000 million for two years.

The conditions were very strict: he had to drive their cars for daily commutes, but someone gave him a Mercedes-Benz G-Class as a gift.

Of course, you can drive other brands of cars when filming, and the same goes for being a passenger.

Gao Yuanyuan also reaped a lot of benefits.

Her portrayal of Oh Yeon-joo is witty, brave, arrogant yet adorably silly, earning her the title of "national goddess" from netizens.

Those infatuated men immediately set her as their computer screensaver and phone wallpaper.

She's become a national goddess, so her popularity has naturally skyrocketed, and she can now rival the four singles and two doubles.

The salary has risen to 25 per episode, and he is receiving so many offers for roles, directors, scripts, and commercial performances that he can't keep up with the demand.

Her agent made a special call to thank Su Jin.

Gao Yuanyuan also called, saying that she would treat Su Jin to a meal after she finished filming.

Zeng Li's popularity has also increased a lot. She is no longer an unknown person, and people can call her name when she walks down the street.

Ni Dahong gained instant fame and received many scripts for roles as a psychopathic killer.

Wang Jinsong is similar; he plays a prosecutor with a significant amount of screen time and has received many scripts for villainous roles.

Luo Jin received relatively little recognition; his role as a bodyguard was small and his character wasn't particularly memorable.

But it changed everyone's impression of him; it turned out he was also an actor.

Previously, Luo Jin became a non-mainstream idol because of his song "Wrong Wrong Wrong" and his frequent commercial performances with his outlandish costumes.

Many people think he is a singer, and are quite surprised when they see him act in TV dramas.

The bodyguard played by Luo Jin is very handsome and cool. He wears a black suit every day and occasionally says something cunning.

To put it another way, who benefits the most from this?

It wasn't Su Jin, but Hunan TV; their product sold like hotcakes.

At the beginning of the TV series, GG asks for 5 million; between the two episodes, GG asks for 8 million; and during a break in the middle, GG asks for 13 million.

At this price, a bunch of Google sellers are vying to get their hands on it.

This is only the price halfway through the broadcast; I heard the price will continue to rise later.

When the leaders of Zhejiang TV, Shanghai TV, Beijing TV, and Jiangsu TV saw this earning power, they were filled with regret. They slapped themselves hard, wondering why they hadn't persisted in the first place. It was just a matter of tens of thousands of yuan.

Then the opponents saw an opportunity and launched an attack, replacing the directors of Zhejiang TV and Beijing TV for purchasing programs.

The directors of film purchasing at Shanghai TV and Jiangsu TV reviewed their work and offered self-criticism.

As for why the decision wasn't made by them, and why there needs to be a review and a change of personnel.

You didn't make the decision, but you were the one who bought the film!

If it were a regular TV series, it wouldn't be a big deal.

But this is a hugely popular TV series that broke the 10% viewership rating halfway through its run, and whose upper limit is still unknown, sparking a nationwide discussion.

If you don't take the blame, who will?

The station director can't be blamed!

In order to cultivate a good relationship with Jianmu Media, Hunan TV transferred the final payment before Huang Jiaqiang even had a chance to follow up.

Their goal was clear: to secure the exclusive broadcasting rights for "Lurking".

They knew that Su Jin was going to film a TV series because she had a 10% investment in "Lurking".

The second round of first-run rights has not yet been sold; it is waiting for a higher price.

Late at night, in a hotel.

The room was dimly lit, with only a table lamp emitting a soft glow.

Su Jin leaned against the headboard, smoking a cigarette in one hand and gently stroking Fan Xiaopang's smooth and delicate back with the other.

Her back was incredibly smooth, without a single blemish, not even a pimple.

"Su Jin, what kind of TV series did you tell me about back then?" Fan Xiaopang lay on Su Jin's chest, his fingers gently tracing small circles.

Upon hearing this, Su Jin's lips curled into a slight smile, and she said, "What? Interested?"

"A little." Fan Xiaopang nodded.

Gao Yuanyuan's sudden rise to fame really spurred her on.

A second-tier actress has become as popular as her, or even more popular, because of a TV series.

Although this popularity may be somewhat superficial, as long as the subsequent works maintain a certain level of quality, they can continue...

Keep it going.

The entertainment industry!

Standing still is moving backward.

"It's no use if you're interested. After I finish filming 'Lurking,' I don't plan to film any more TV series."

"Ah!" Fan Xiaopang suddenly looked up, surprised, "Why?! Didn't you say before that there's no difference in quality between movies and TV series?"

"There aren't that many whys. I don't have time. I need to focus on making movies from now on."

"Then why did you promise me in the first place?"

"I need to correct you on this. I didn't agree to your request at first. I invited you to participate, and then you said you would star in it, so you did."

"Are you playing word games with me?!" Fan Bayi gritted his teeth, his hand already pinching the soft flesh of Su Jin's waist and twisting it.

"Are you crazy?! Just talk, why are you pinching me like that!" Su Jin pulled Fan Xiaopang's hand away and said irritably.

"Who told you to go back on your word!"

"That's just being unreasonable and making trouble. I never agreed to anything, so how can you say I'm going back on my word?"

Enraged, Fan Xiaopang arrogantly declared, "I don't care, you have to act for me."

"Hehe————" Su Jin sneered, too lazy to pay attention to her, and got up to take a shower.

When Fan Xiaopang saw that Su Jin was ignoring her, he frowned. "I've been serving you for months, and you won't even grant me this small request."

Men are indeed unreliable; you still have to rely on yourself.

The question is, how can we get Su Jin to agree to participate in the film?

She thought about it for a long time but still couldn't come up with a solution.

Su Jin has more money than her.

Needless to say, she relied on Su Jin for resources.

So all that's left is this beautiful ketone body, but that bastard Su Jin already got it.

Ugh!

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have discussed art with him.

"Click."

A slight sound was heard, and the bathroom door slowly opened.

Upon hearing the noise, Fan Xiaopang had an idea.

She quickly composed herself, then crossed her arms, leaned back against the headboard, lowered her eyes, and adopted a sullen expression.

Su Jin came out, drying her wet hair. Seeing Fan Xiaopang like this, she couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.

The old saying is so true: men are ultimately visual creatures, and they have a much higher tolerance for beautiful things.

Besides, they had been exchanging ideas about art for several months, so they had developed some feelings for each other.

But then I thought about it again and realized that this wasn't like Fan Xiaopang's usual personality!

In his memory, Fan Xiaopang was the kind of person who was quite carefree and would not do something he knew was impossible.

"Don't hold it so tightly, or you'll suffocate the big rabbit."

"Get lost." Fan Xiaopang lost his composure in an instant, angrily picking up the pillow next to him and throwing it at Su Jin.

Su Jin caught the pillow that flew at her, casually tossed it onto the bed, and said, "If you want to act, I can arrange for someone else to film it. I'll definitely find you a handsome male lead."

"No, I want you."

"Then you just wait!"

Ok?

Have a show?

Fan Xiaopang's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "How long?"

"Two or three years, maybe!"

"It's been so long? The daylily is already cold."

"So, are you going to wait or not?"
