On December 19, the TV series "Life is like the first time we met" once again revealed the schedule information. On December 27, iQiyi will go online to meet the audience. However, this news has not yet been officially announced by the dramatist. Earlier, "Life Is Like the First Meeting" was launched on iQiyi in episode 6, but the time was very short and it was hastily taken offline.
At that time, Hunan Satellite TV also officially announced the launch of this TV series, but that night, Hunan Satellite TV did not broadcast the drama "Life is Like the First Meeting". iQiyi briefly released 6 episodes of the play, and some viewers got a glimpse of the "style" of the play. There are also some opinions from viewers about why the show was taken offline.
Viewers who have watched the first 6 episodes of the TV series said that in this TV series, the male protagonist played by Li Xian is the person who suppressed the Wuchang Uprising in the history textbooks. He should be a typical villain. In this TV series, In the work, this character is actually portrayed positively. Therefore, some viewers believe that the play has the problem of "historical nihilism". As a senior editor, I didn’t catch up on the drama in time at the time, so I don’t know if this problem exists in “Life is Like the First Meeting.”
At that time, after the show was hastily offline, it has not been able to seek the opportunity to go online again. This time, the December 27th schedule information was spread again, and it is suspected that the show has made a lot of plot changes. Some voices said that this TV series has modified many plots of the male protagonist Li Xian, making this character an unimportant supporting actor, and Wei Daxun, the supporting actor back then, has become the current protagonist of the series.
makes the good guy the protagonist, which is obviously more in line with the expectations of ordinary viewers. If the show has already made changes in this regard, then it should indeed be not far away from being launched. By the way, one of the producers of this TV series is iQiyi. As the online platform for this TV series, they will of course work harder to prevent this TV series from becoming a backlog of inventory. This attempt to go online should be out of nowhere.
On December 27, the brother platform Tencent Video will launch the TV series "Flowers" starring Hu Ge, Ma Yili, Tang Yan and Xin Zhilei, directed by Wong Kar-wai. The drama was launched simultaneously with Tencent Video and the Yangba TV Drama Channel. Although the ratings of "Flowers" may not be too high, it has attracted a lot of attention on the Internet, and viewers who really have quality requirements for TV series are eagerly waiting for it.
This means that if the brother platforms cannot produce high-quality TV dramas during this period, then Tencent Video will be proud of the world with "Flowers" and attract a large number of ordinary high-quality drama fans. , become a paid member of its platform. This seems to be the driving force behind iQiyi’s urgent need to launch several high-quality dramas.
After all, fan users are the easiest to satisfy. Just show them a few popular dramas and they will become paid members of the platform. However, fan users are a minority group after all. Looking at the excitement on the Internet, they are actually similar to grasshoppers after the fall. The ordinary audience is the real mainstream of the platform. When ordinary viewers follow a TV series, the show will become popular.
Therefore, TV series such as "Flowers" and "Life is Like the First Meeting" actually follow the path of ordinary, high-quality audiences. This audience can easily reach tens of millions of people. If the quality of the drama is really high, the platform will instantly attract tens of millions of paid new viewers. In this situation, whoever launches high-quality dramas will get the initiative to attract new paid members first. "Flowers" has been officially announced and Tencent Video is bound to win.
As for iQiyi, at this juncture, it is obviously a very good choice to recommend "Life is Like the First Meeting". If this TV series has been revised, it will still be able to compete with "Flowers" directed by Wong Kar-Wai after it is released. It is worth noting that the screenwriter of "Life is Like the First Meeting" is teacher Jiang Qitao. Mr. Jiang is also the screenwriter of classic film and television dramas such as "Bright Sword", "The Great Emperor of Han Dynasty" and "The Righteous Way in the World Is Vicissitudes of Life". It is for this reason that "Life Is Like the First Meeting" has attracted much attention.
Of course, if it is true, as reported on the Internet, that this TV series has deleted a large number of the male protagonist Li Xian's scenes and made Wei Daxun the protagonist, then as a traffic star, Li Xian will react to his fans , should be the focus of the dramatists. This kind of deletion will probably cause dissatisfaction among fans. Fortunately, in the past few years, Li Xian seems to have no intention of cultivating traffic fans, and only concentrates on making high-quality film and television dramas. Not relying on fans but letting your works speak for itself is the right way in the world.
At present, many high-quality dramas will be launched at the end of December, and drama fans are in for a treat. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
