Chapter 160: Traffic is king, how does traffic come from?
Teacher Wang thought that Ye Bai was regretful and wanted to make amends, so he took it and was slapped hard in the face, and he was furious.
Facing Ye Bai's doubts, he squeezed out a few words through his teeth and responded:
"Do you know what traffic is king? For film and television dramas, ratings are everything!"
"If idol dramas are as ugly as you say, why do so many viewers watch them? Why are male stars affectionately called 'husbands' by their female fans?"
Teacher Wang's words may sound reasonable at first glance.
Just like when you go to a restaurant to eat, if the food is not delicious, will you still eat it cleanly and praise it for how delicious it is?
But in fact, we cannot look at the problem so one-sidedly, or we cannot make such generalizations.
Rather, it requires detailed analysis of specific issues!
Just the question above, it depends on who is going to the restaurant to eat?
They may not be normal people, but have been brainwashed or starved for a long time, so whatever they eat tastes delicious.
In today's society, precisely because of the development of the Internet, it also gives some entertainment capital the opportunity to get involved.
On the one hand, they create fake celebrity personalities, and on the other hand, they cultivate a deformed fandom culture, causing fans to chase stars without any brains.
It is estimated that even if brothers fart, fans think it tastes good.
Ye Bai shook his head and sighed. He was well aware of Wang Fuchun's sophistry.
He tapped the table with the index finger of his right hand and said calmly:
“Ratings are everything?”
"Teacher Wang, just think about it, if you replaced the male and female protagonists of the same idol drama with third- and fourth-tier starlets, do you think it would still have such high ratings?"
Um?
When Ye Bai asked him so suddenly, Wang Fuchun instantly lost his temper. Is it necessary to say this?
If it were replaced by third- or fourth-tier actors, there would be no ratings at all!
From a business perspective, who doesn’t want to make a movie and TV series that makes a lot of money?
Otherwise, why would the salary of traffic stars be so high? Wait...
Doesn’t this just show that traffic stars are worth the money?
Thinking that he could immediately counter Ye Bai's point of view, Wang Fuchun did not waste a moment and directly grasped the key points and retorted:
"Yes, if it were a third- or fourth-tier starlet as the leading actor or actress, of course it would not have such high ratings. But, doesn't this further prove the popularity and appeal of traffic stars?"
"That's why the salary is high because it's worth the money!"
Wang Fuchun, who was so talkative at the time, never imagined how big a deal his words would cause later on.
Of course, that's all for later.
It seemed that reasoning could not make sense. Ye Bai was also made angry by Teacher Wang's magical self-consistent logic.
"Does this mean that you also admit that the reason why idol dramas starring popular stars have high ratings is not because of how good their acting skills are or how fascinating the plot is, but because of the traffic they have, right?"
"Very good, then here's the question! Who provides this traffic?"
Although it seemed that he had raised a question, Ye Bai also knew that Wang Fuchun would not be stupid enough to answer this question again.
Because, this is the secret that cannot be told in the entertainment industry...
So, after a short pause, Ye Bai gave the answer loudly.
"It's not created by the entertainment capital. It uses various means to increase traffic and create data, and creates false prosperity through data injection. In addition, it cultivates a deformed rice circle culture. Then the traffic will come, won't it?"
"For a group of brain-dead fans with broken values, as long as there are popular celebrities participating, even if they cook a pot of dark food, they will happily think that this is the most delicious thing in the world."
Ye Bai's words burst into blood, more like sharp lightning bolts, which made Wang Fuchun scratch his liver and heart, and became angry.
The audience was so excited by the back-and-forth between Ye Bai and Teacher Wang that they felt like they were on a roller coaster and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
After they reacted, the applause on the field gradually sounded, from weak to strong.
Eventually it turned into thunderous applause, resounding throughout the audience.
In the live broadcast room, the situation between the two forces, which had always been evenly matched, changed because of Ye Bai's words.
"Damn it, Ye Bai is awesome! Teacher Wang thought he had caught a loophole and wanted to fight back, but he was slapped to death."
"Just kidding, Ye Bai's clear thinking and rigorous logic are beyond comparison with ordinary people."
"Ye Bai, yyds! Please accept my knee, you are really amazing."
"It would be easy for popular celebrities to hone their acting skills and evolve into real actors. But the problem is that they don't do this hard work at all. They always act cute on Weibo. The last variety show attracted people's attention. This
Is it worth the high salary?"
Seeing their brothers being so slandered again, the girls in the fandom couldn't help it anymore, and once again tried their best to turn the tide.
"Idol dramas are just good, and brothers are worth the money. Go ahead and be envious and jealous!"
"Why do you say that we are crazy fans? Our love for our brother is sincere. We are not crazy at all, right?"
"It's hard to bear. This Ye Bai is really going too far. He's always slandering my brothers. It's really abominable."
"Sisters, go ahead! Don't let these bad guys get the upper hand, we will fight for our brothers!"
The live broadcast room was still very noisy, with both sides refusing to give in. Netizens saw through the screen that Ye Bai spoke again.
"I believe that the public's eyes are sharp."
"Since Teacher Wang insists on saying that idol dramas starring popular celebrities are art, then I will just click on a few idol dramas for everyone to see, and let everyone evaluate whether they are art."
After saying that, Ye Bai took out his mobile phone on the spot, entered the video player and found the TV series shot by the battle.
In the picture, everyone saw some funny scenes.
For example: I couldn't cry for a long time during the crying scene, and I just screamed a few times to show off. There was no real feeling at all, but I couldn't relate to it at all.
Another example: It's obviously a drama about life and death, but they were forced to act it out into a comedy. With such jumping up and down, are we saying that they can't act out the drama of life and death normally?
Do you have to make people look so embarrassed and want to laugh...
After watching it, not to mention the audience, even the other two experts at the scene were stroking their foreheads in discomfort, feeling like they were not enjoying themselves.
It's really embarrassing, you can dig out three bedrooms and one living room with your toes.
After the presentation, Ye Bai put away his phone, raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Fuchun again, jokingly saying:
"How about it, Teacher Wang? Facts speak louder than words. Do you still think this thing is art?"
"Hmph, I think this is bullshit!"
After the words fell, the audience, the host and the other two experts were shocked again, looking at Ye Bai with a calm expression in disbelief.
Today, the fig leaf of the entertainment industry is being stripped away layer by layer by Ye Bai.
Doesn’t this young man know what it means to have a long life?
I have completely offended the entertainment industry, what will I do next...
