Chapter 373 How come he is the number one trending search again!!!
In the past, even big companies like Fengge and Huayuan Film and Television.

Or some top-notch director.

There is still no situation where Kiwifruit cannot do without anyone.

On the contrary, as the platform, we often hold the initiative.

Going back further, traditional TV stations, which are platforms with large numbers of users and resources, are often the bosses.

But that is under the premise that no one has really figured out the market, or even reached the point where every drama can become a hit.

The appearance of Xu Kong directly broke the original status quo.

So even Qin Xian, who had always been tough before, had to admit that he could not give up the cooperation with Xu Kong and Feng Ge just like that.

If possible, he would like to repair his relationship with Feng Ge and Xu Kong.

But after all, there are no ifs.

The truth of the matter is that even if he took the initiative to apologize humbly, he hoped that the other party would give him a chance.

But most likely it’s just a futile effort.

Because at the moment, let alone the drama directed by Xu Kong himself, even if Xu Kong is only the screenwriter and producer, as long as it is a drama produced by Fengge, Kiwi would be excluded as an option because of him.

They have no shortage of platforms for cooperation, and some are willing to offer high prices to compete for cooperation.

Potato and Penguin are good examples.

Although I don’t know what the copyright fees for “The Beginning” and “The Bad Kids” are, I’m sure they won’t be low.

There may even be a gambling agreement involved.

……

No one at the scene expected Qin Xian to give in so quickly.

However, one thing that is certain is that Qin Xian himself does have a conflict with Xu Kong.

The senior executive who took over was visibly happy at this moment.

There is no way. One thing that everyone currently agrees on is that as long as they can get the copyright of Xu Kong’s new drama.

That is a very solid performance.

He didn’t think much about what conditions and costs this process would require.

The only thing I thought was that since the copyright fee was something that Penguin and even Tudou Video could afford, then it would be fine for them.

But he didn’t expect that Xu Kong himself had a bad impression of kiwi fruit.

Under the same profit-sharing conditions, how could anyone choose to cooperate with them for no reason?

……

On the other hand, the ending of “The Bad Kids” caused quite a bit of discussion online.

Especially the various analyses of Zhu Chaoyang.

As well as the two male protagonists, Zhu Chaoyang and Zhang Dongsheng, who have almost the same number of roles, although they are in an antagonistic relationship almost throughout the whole process.

But the names of the two people do make it easy for people to make some associations.

In addition, although it is not explicitly stated that Zhu Chaoyang is the so-called murderer, there are many so-called Easter eggs hidden in it, as well as sounds coming from the black screen.

The various details like “she is going to fall” all indicate that everything may not be that simple.

Includes several different endings.

In the end, did Pupu die or not?

Was Yan Liang really rescued by Lao Chen and dreamed of becoming a policeman?

From the beginning to the end, the whole drama maintains the kind of horror that makes people think deeply.

Compared with some previous perverted murderers, or bizarre and bloody suspense dramas.

In fact, “The Bad Kids” has almost none of these. The reason why it feels scary is that almost all the characters in the whole show are villains, and there is a dark side in each person’s heart.

……

Obviously, no one except Xu Kong can give a correct official explanation for the ending.

But of course it was impossible for Xu Kong himself to say it.

It’s nothing more than an open ending, leaving more for the audience to imagine.

This will allow the entire show to maintain the same tone from beginning to end.

This is actually a better way to deal with it than giving a very clear ending.

This has proven to be true.

Although it seems that because of different views on the solution, ordinary audiences, some well-known film critics or self-media are all arguing with each other.

But after the ending was released, the rating of “The Bad Kids” did not fall but rose instead.

From the original terrifying score of 9.1, it actually increased by 0.1 points and remained at 9.2.

The high opening god is gone.

Compared to “The Beginning” which had just stabilized at over 8 points.

This time, “The Bad Kids” has completely left those haters speechless.

What is even more puzzling is that although Xu Kong, as the director, did almost no official promotion for the entire drama, he only retweeted related promotional Weibo posts a few times before the show started.

It can be said that he never showed up from beginning to end.

It didn’t appear in the entire drama.

But most of the audience went to the movie just for the title of director Xu Kong.

Instead, it led to a lot of discussion about various roles and actors.

However, Xu Kong appears more frequently than the male lead Chen Shuang and other actors.

Everyone is also very clear that the actors’ performance was really good.

But the most essential part of this drama still lies in the contribution of Xu Kong, the director and screenwriter.

……

For many colleagues in the industry, many people feel that Xu Kong’s number of fans is a bit too exaggerated, even exceeding the so-called top young stars who specialize in data.

Although they seem to have a lot of fans, the actual number is far from being that exaggerated.

This is mainly because many fans in fan clubs are well-trained and will intensively make their brothers’ presence felt in various places.

And if I see someone saying bad things about my brother, I must gather people and start to attack them.

This makes it look like there are a lot of fans.

But Xu Kong’s words were indeed somewhat different.

Nowadays, there are many netizens who are praising Xu Kong crazily. Strictly speaking, they are not fans of Xu Kong.

Because they almost always act alone, they don’t do the so-called well-trained fan club things like swiping the screen or working with data.

Many of these people are the kind who think someone’s work is good, and then start promoting it everywhere and looking for people to discuss it with.

To put it simply, it’s actually the same psychological motivation, which is nothing more than seeking a sense of identity.

……

These netizens, who are like passers-by fans, have almost no loyalty.

If Xu Kong makes a bad movie or TV series one day, they might be the first ones to turn against him and criticize him.

But before that, compared with the so-called fans in the fan circle, the amount of money such people can spend for Xu Kong is limited.

Logically speaking, the value of individual fans is far less than that of the top stars in the traditional sense.

But there are too many people like this.

The number is so high that it is exaggerated. This has led to them being able to determine the data trend of Xu Kong’s new drama to a certain extent.

In addition, this group of people almost spontaneously and enthusiastically discuss related topics publicly on various social platforms.

This is also the main reason why “The Bad Kids” has become so popular before it’s even aired without much publicity.

……

For colleagues in the same field, this is an almost unsolvable situation.

Because it is too difficult to achieve this level.

Even if he is a replica of Xu Kong, at least all the works he has shot from his debut to now are true hits.

This is without taking into account Xu Kong’s influence in music and some of his advantages in appearance.

Many film and television companies are waiting now, including of course the old rival Changyun Film and Television. Of course, it is not just Changyun Film and Television.

Although they are the direct victims, the number of film and television companies affected by Xu Kong’s appearance is definitely not small.

What they were waiting for was nothing more than Xu Kong’s own downfall.

Is it possible that every subsequent drama will be able to maintain the same reputation and data?
If you fail once, it may not shake your foundation, and it may not even have any impact at all.

But it was a breakthrough.

……

The popularity of “The Bad Kids” has decreased a bit with the broadcast of the finale, and on the other hand, the new episode of “The King of Masked Singer” was also broadcast soon after.

As expected, Xu Kong became a hot topic again.

Although his name did not appear in any scene of the program, it still immediately became the number one trending search.

The hot search terms are also very concise and clear.

#Xu Kong’s new song#
How come he is the number one trending search again!!!
This is almost the first thought of most of his colleagues in the entertainment industry after seeing Xu Kong’s name.

……

“It’s most likely Su Yuwei. The high notes in the chorus of the song “Light Years Away” are so recognizable.”

“If there are no major surprises, her new song should still be written by Xu Kong.”

“After all, he has joined Xu Kong’s company. There aren’t many other possibilities for a song of this quality except Xu Kong.”

After the show “Masked Singer” was broadcast, Fei Niao immediately started the live review session.

In fact, it was as early as when I went to participate in the recording of the program.

He couldn’t bear it any longer.

I didn’t even wait until I got home. After finishing the recording and returning to the hotel, I had already written a video copy of nearly 10,000 words.

However, due to some confidentiality agreements with the program team, I have to keep it to myself.

In fact, even the video has been made for a while.

However, due to the broadcast of “The Bad Kids”, the show became so popular that Mango TV directly gave up its original weekend prime time.

That is to say, the program has been recorded but not broadcast.

It was not until the finale of “The Bad Kids” that the show was finally officially resumed broadcasting.

In fact, considering the popularity of “King of Masked Singer” at the time, such a decision was undoubtedly a loss.

But first of all, “The Bad Kids” was originally broadcast on Mango TV, so they are the real beneficiaries.

In addition, considering his relationship with Xu Kong and Feng Ge, it is definitely worthwhile to do so. Regardless of whether the other party recognizes it or not, it is also considered as doing a favor. In the end, it was Wu Youxue who made this decision himself.

So far, it seems to be correct.

Because if “The Masked Singer” and “The Bad Kids” are broadcast in the same time slot.

There will definitely be a phenomenon of competing for audience and popularity.

When “The Bad Kids” was broadcast alone, Mango TV’s weekend prime-time ratings reached a maximum of 3.1, directly breaking the highest record in the past decade.

Although going back a bit, the ratings were actually not very high.

But after all, there were no video platforms at that time, and it was still the golden age of television, so such a comparison is definitely inappropriate.

……

Although the broadcast of “King of Masked Singer” has been delayed, the results of the second episode are still quite good.

It’s also because there is a singer who looks like Su Yuwei on the show, and because of the new song that Xu Kong helped write.

On the contrary, it just happened to take advantage of the popularity of the hit drama “The Bad Kids”.

……

“Of course, I know that what everyone is most curious about is not Su Yuwei, but the first place winner of this episode.”

“The true identity of the singer wearing a rose-patterned headdress.”

“To be honest, I’m not sure who it really is…”

Fat Bird’s words directly led to a lot of curses from the audience.

However, Feiniao now has rich experience in live streaming and doesn’t care about these things at all.

The key to the matter is not this, but the new singer who filled in this episode.

Her identity has become the most discussed point at present.

Because this episode was most likely about the new song Xu Kong wrote for Su Yuwei, it unexpectedly failed to secure first place and was only second place.

The first one is the female singer who is so-called named Rose.

The other party also sang a new song called “Later”.

In the end, he won the championship of the second episode of the show with a difference of about 5 votes.

From a comprehensive comparison of the on-site performance and the quality of the two new songs, Feiniao actually thinks there is nothing wrong with this result.

But the crux of the problem is that the female singer couldn’t find the right person among some well-known female singers in the Chinese music scene that she was familiar with.

……

“I think, of course, this is just a rather special guess on my part.”

“Could this female singer be Lan Shu?”

“As for the song, of course it was written by her boss Xu Kong.”

As soon as Fei Niao finished his guess, the audience in the live broadcast room couldn’t help but refute and laugh at him.

“The anchor has gone crazy. I suggest you go get your brain checked.”

“No, buddy. Even if you are really Xu Chui’s leader, you can’t assume that all the songs were written by Xu Kong just because there’s no good song, right?”

“This song is actually a traditional popular love song. It’s not just Xu Kong who can write it, right? And Rose’s voice and singing style are quite different from Lan Shu’s!”

Yes, in fact, this is also the reason why Fat Bird is a little uncertain.

First of all, there are popular love songs, which are one of the most produced song types in the domestic music scene every year.

It is normal for a few high-quality songs to appear.

In addition, there is the Lan Shu that everyone knows. Almost all of her songs are more emotional and technical in style.

The song “Later” is indeed a bit inconsistent as a whole.

But of course the fat bird doesn’t just come out with its mouth.

On the contrary, this answer is the result of his careful consideration over this period of time.

“Don’t panic, everyone. Let me explain why I think both songs were written by Xu Kong…”
