After dinner at six, Li Mei immediately got someone to prepare drinks and snacks and placed them on the coffee table. She said to Li Chen happily, āButler Li, inform everyone to rest tonight. If itās not an urgent matter, leave it for tomorrow. Everyone, come and watch television first.ā
...
Tan Ming held her forehead and felt a little embarrassed. āMom, this is too much! What if they donāt want to see it?ā
They could slack off, why would they want to work!
When the short-haired maid, who was making fruit tea, heard this, she was afraid that Li Mei would change her mind. āMadam, Miss, Iāve heard you guys talk about it usually. We also pay attention to the drama āCycleā in private. When I watched the promotional video, I felt that it was a pity that 1 had to work overtime and couldnāt watch the premiere. I didnāt expect Madam to be so considerate!ā
When Li Mei heard this, the smile on her face deepened. She said to Tan Ming, āAnāan, be more confident! When Mom saw the exciting scenes released by your production team, I felt that this would definitely be good!ā
Jiang Yan and Jiang Xun were already sitting on the sofa, waiting for the live broadcast. Jiang Huai opened a bag of potato chips and lay lazily on the sofa. He said calmly to Tan Ming, āYouāll get used to it. Iāve been through this too.ā
Li Mei looked at Jiang Huai unhappily. āFrom your tone, whatās wrong? I worked so hard to help you promote it. Arenāt you done?!ā
Jiang Huai hurriedly revealed a fawning smile. āNo, no. Iām very grateful. Iām just afraid that youāll work too hard. You usually have to take care of the family and worry about my movies and television dramas.ā
Li Mei rolled her eyes at Jiang Huai and sat beside Tan Ming. āI have confidence in you! Good luck!ā
With her parentsā unconditional support and help, Tan Ming suddenly felt that it was not so embarrassing to be judged by a group of people. A blissful smile appeared on her face. āYes!ā
āCampus Loveā was broadcasted on the first day of the new year. This kind of pure love theme still captured a considerable share of the market. Marriage in real life might be a mess, but innocent love itself represented hope. It was irresistible.
Since life was already very tough, it was good to occasionally watch others fall in love and make themselves feel better. Therefore, once it was broadcasted, the ratings were third place in the prime 8pm slot.
Such viewership ratings were considered very good for television dramas without top celebrities participating.
On the other hand, the viewership ratings for āCycleā, which was broadcasted on the second day of the Lunar New Year, could only be said to be neither high nor low on the first day. It was all thanks to this theme that they could achieve such results. Otherwise, without a popular celebrity who could direct fan traffic, it would already be considered good if the viewership ratings werenāt last.
However, in the next few days, the situation began to reverse.
[Sisters! Who knew! A few days ago, 1 was still mocking the fact that this drama was a gathering place for unknown actors. Today, Iām already trapped! 1 just opened a membership online in the morning and finished all the episodes of āCycleā a few days ago! Reality has proven that popularity canāt be interchanged with the brilliance of capability. From the main character to the supporting actors, everyoneās acting skills are on point! I really like the female lead, calm and wise!]
[1 just finished catching up +1. Sisters, hurry up! The plot of āCycleā is too complicated. I really want to slap myself. A few days ago, before it was released, my friend said that this drama would definitely be good and asked me to follow it on the second day of Lunar New Year. However, I went to watch āCampus Loveā. Yesterday, when I was changing channels while waiting for the television advertisements to end, I saw a small part of the plot and completely fell for it. Now, I can only spend money to watch it online. I want to cry.]
[Hahaha, looks like 1 have good taste. When I finished watching āCampus Loveā on Lunar New Year, I immediately knew that it was a cliche again. 1 had no choice. As a follower of many idol school dramas for many years, 1 could see through the subsequent plot at a glance. On the second day of New Yearās, 1 decided to watch this drama with a new theme. Everyone, donāt be blinded by popular celebrities! Itās really disrespectful to the audience to release a television drama where the actors lack acting skills!]
[After watching āCycleā, youāll realize that television dramas with proper actors are really exciting. Anāanās performance as a newbie really stunned me. 1ā11 support her dramas in the future!]
[1 like Anāan +1. School idol dramas are indeed similar. Although the filming methods and plot of āCampus Loveā are indeed innovative, itās still the same. I can only say that Iām tired of fans only caring about having their idols in a show. I strongly recommend āCycleā! Although thereās no sweet love, itās not bad to use your brain occasionally to prevent Alzheimerās!]
[Currently, in the eighth episode, the male and female leads played by Anāan and Feng Bin donāt have any romantic sparks at all. Theyāre purely partners. Although I donāt know what will happen next, I still like them as a love idol drama fan.. The feeling of being evenly matched and fighting side by side is too wonderful!]
