Preface: "Ace Troops" is a contemporary military epic drama led by Huang Jingyu and Xiao Zhan, starring Zhong Chuxi, starring Li Youbin and Mao Linlin, and specially invited by He Zhengjun, Zhang Zhijian, Bai Lu, Zhang Shaogang, Qin Pei, etc.
Through a span of nearly 40 years, "Ace Troops" tells the story of a group of young soldiers who have been tempered and forged ahead, and finally grow into aces in the military. The drama began broadcasting on iQiyi and Jiangsu Satellite TV on December 26, 2021, which can be said to be "airborne" jiangsu satellite TV - it started at 7:30 p.m. that night and was officially announced at 3:30 p.m.
At that time, Jiangsu Satellite TV was broadcasting "Deep Breathing Together" starring Qi Wei and Yang Youning, which was equivalent to "Deep Breathing Together" being forcibly interrupted to make way for "Ace Troops". "Deep BreathIng Together" had poor ratings, but "Ace Troops" didn't have much higher ratings — the highest episode in Cool Cloud was 0.3937%.
The ratings of "Ace Troops" are very average, but the internet popularity is indeed the existence of a unique file. According to the statistics of Maoyan Professional Edition: "Ace Troops" has won the heat championship for 25 consecutive days. The popularity of "Ace Troops" in iQIYI once reached 9289, which is the highest popularity TV series in iQiyi's history.
Wu Qinggong, a non-famous entertainment critic, pointed out that the popularity of "Ace Troops" is so high, almost the credit of Xiao Zhan, Huang Jingyu and Zhong Chuxi did not help much. Xiao Zhan's character Gu Yiye has 86.8% attention in Maoyan; Huang Jingyu's sorghum is only 9.5%, and Zhong Chuxi's Jiang Nanzheng is only 1.8%.
"Xiao Zhan Gu Yiye" has been read 10.4 billion times on Weibo and discussed by 20.33 million! Therefore, Xiao Zhan almost single-handedly supported a TV series. But all the TV series where Xiao Zhan served as the male number one are the most popular TV series in the same period. For example, "Douluo Continent", which began broadcasting on February 5, 2021, the ratings are also average, but the network heat is invincible.
Xiao Zhan's TV series "His Highness the Wolf", which is the second male number, is not low in popularity, in fact, it is because Xiao Zhan's fans have converged a little and there is no too hard marketing. Xiao Zhan also has 2 TV series to be broadcast, one is "Jade Bone Yao" and the other is "The Rest of Your Life, Please Give More Advice", both of which are TV series produced by Tencent Video. Therefore, the network popularity of these two TV series will not be low, depending on which TV station can buy the broadcast rights.
If "The Rest of Your Life, Please Give More Advice" can be broadcast on Hunan Satellite TV, the ratings will definitely be very high. Xiao Zhan's acting skills in "Ace Troops" are actually remarkable, and the drama side can report a few more names for Xiao Zhan to see if he can get the "Emperor of Vision". This year is the year of the Golden Eagle Award, Xiao Zhan can impact the "Golden Eagle Emperor", this award ceremony is more inclusive of traffic stars.
