Dramas that generally show professions like police, doctors, military dramas, firefighters. For instance fire investigator, medical examiner doctor Qin, we are criminal police. They are also different from romance dramas with these professions. Like fire works in my heart is not a tribute drama since the main focus is romance.

Fans of diliraba are pissed coz it’s her drama slot that got robbed, xu Kai , Lusi and other actor fans are pissed coz it impacts their schedules. Raba has 80+million followers on weibo XK has 23m and Lusi has 30m roughly. So I said 100million just adding weibo followers. Don’t take it seriously pls

Just discovered that CCTV dramas doesn’t require license to air. Passing review is fine. They can obtain license while broadcasting or even after it.

Literally everyone is praying it flops but unfortunately that kinda drama hardly flops coz of the big audience. But for sure this whole thing pissed 100 million people who also belong to the potential audience of this king drama. Fingers crossed it flops and tencent will loose

China do have corruption. Getting exposed depends on who you offend. But this is a case of resource rich ness not necessarily corruption or bribing or any sort. If they t know the right people, this is like asking for a favor over a dinner chat

Connections working harder I guess

I feel like this is a prime example why you can’t announce a drama schedule in two or more weeks advance coz then other platforms will throw out their own dramas to compete or like this situation another drama can rob the slot through connection. Anyways the industry is in a slump as long as the drama airs I’m fine. Problem is- it’s been months and it’s still not jere

😭😭😭😭😭😭. Woke up everyday in the morning first thing I do after opening eyes is going on weibo and rednote for updates these last two months. Only for this to happen

Honestly you know what at this point I don’t care about competition and all the data. I want the drama like life at an office job is so boring I need ENTERTAINMENT not some dry drama

I mean these are profit seeking companies I don’t have high hopes for them. And the whole point of summer vacation is entertainment, romance, costume dramas coz the main audience aka kids are at home. Serious dramas have a larger casual audience any time of the year. Literally everyone is questioning what’s going on in Chinese social media

They are already doing it. I won’t say names but ten cents current viewership is 8% while Youku is 33% last time I checked which is embarrassing, so they are pushing all the dramas away and paving way for the king 😒

It’s the connections that frustrates people. because they are basically disrupting the market and students vacation for dollars. What happened was on July 3rd or something diliraba fans found that sword rose will air on 12th on national newspaper ( CCTV usually publishes the schedule on that). And then the fan accounts and the drama did all the preheating. Until yesterday it was confirmed to release on the 12th. Then tencent pushed this drama forwards impacting all the subsequent drama schedules and actors schedules. Ngl I hope this king drama doesn’t do well (even though it most likely will do well. Costume dramas on tencent have been struggling bad (cough cough the drama u mentioned) so they doing what youku is doing with in the name of law. This narcotics drama pissed like 100 million drama fans (literally) especially dilirab, lusi, xukai, fans as well as school students.

I am pissed right now I wanna cry. I’m in the middle of a bad internship and this happens I’m screaming

LOFG, and sword rosé won’t affect MR considering both others are not tencent exclusive. The issue is the narcotic operation is S+ and it robbed the slot which will affect all other summer boradcasts as well as actors subsequent projects. For instance Diliraba’s love on the torques island will be pushed back to the end of year because of this. Luckily XK doesn’t have other dramas scheduled in the near future.

Not if both are S+

Damn

That’s what I want to know too it’s super sus how silent they are

Apparently tencent pushed CCTV for this drama. Coz there’re viewership (8%) is so bad these days unlike youku with 22% .

I wish 🙏🙏🙏

That’s why I’m saying. They announced it just today. Last night I checked before sleeping, sword rose was planning to air on the 12th. And I woke up in the morning it’s completely changed. You never know with drama schedules
