Third, "Flowers on the Sea" and "Strange Lovers" Who is more popular?
1. Production team: The production company of "Strange Lovers" is Zhang Meng's Shanghai Yaoke Media Co., Ltd. Obviously, Yaoke is a company that can reassure the audience. So far, the media company has not produced any bad quality works, nor has there been any news of bad negative effects. Zhang Meng's team is particularly good at making a big fuss about the highlights in TV dramas, and most of the TV series she produces can refresh the audience's cognition and world view of the TV series, and have a great influence on the audience. Whether "Strange Lovers" can become a hit depends on how novel the subject matter is. The drama broadcast platform is iQIYI, "Strange Lovers" at the beginning of the production, in fact, the production level is not up to the level of iQIYI's production level, but after the broadcast, it counterattacked successfully, from the "first-level production drama" counterattack to the "special playback effect" of the film and television effect, because of the production level problem, so "Strange Lovers" in the last few episodes is still a little unsatisfactory; and "Flowers on the Sea" is also iQIYI's special production level, and all aspects of resources are superior.
2, publicity and marketing: "Flowers on the Sea" was airborne from the beginning, but after the broadcast the effect was far beyond the original expectations of people, so "Flowers on the Sea" increased the intensity of publicity in the later stage, and the later publicity was greater than the early publicity, and the effect was better; and the "Strange Lovers" resources, connections, and relationships were relatively large, and the early and late stages of publicity were relatively large, which also created the effect of the current "Strange Lovers" high heat;
3, domestic heat: From the above two points of comparison, it can be seen that "Strange Lovers" is much stronger than "Flowers on the Sea" in the director and cast, as well as team strength and reputation. "Strange Lovers" in the early stage of the publicity is not very strong, still won a large number of audience encouragement and support, the number of fans soared, word of mouth is also better, the popularity on the Network is gradually improving with the broadcast of the drama, so the "Strange Lovers" rating on Douban is also as high as 5.5 points. Although "Flowers on the Sea" has always been like the director and cast and the team lineup, these resources are relatively sufficient, and the publicity effect is relatively good, but the rating is not as good as "Strange Lovers", the Douban score is 4.0 points, and other aspects such as popularity and word of mouth are far inferior to "Strange Lovers".
4, foreign heat: we have mentioned above that "Strange Lovers" has a comprehensive advantage in the popularity of "Strange Lovers" in China, so what does it look like in foreign heat! Let's first take a look at the popularity of "Strange Lover" in foreign countries, "Strange Lover" after being broadcast on a number of well-known foreign websites, the click rate soared, the number of likes increased, the vast majority of comments are praise, the response is very large. It has aroused strong resonance in various parts of the world, and has quickly received satisfactory praise from many enthusiastic netizens in foreign countries, and the rating of foreign websites has reached a high of 8.5 points. The degree of support and attention can be said to be very high, far higher than the ratings of various well-known domestic online review websites, I think foreign netizens must be impressed by the acting skills of these potential young Chinese actors, so they give such a high rating. And "Flowers on the Sea" is not bad for playing on well-known websites on the external network, and the concert of "Flowers on the Sea" in Thailand is also extremely popular, so to speak, in foreign countries, the two TV series are equal and comparable.
