Once the two TV series were broadcast, there were different opinions about Li Yue and Jiang Yu on the Internet.
Some nosy netizens started a poll on the Internet: Who do you think will win this competition between Li Yue and Jiang Yu?
There was also a small poll below: which TV series is better, “Ruyi” or “The Chu Family Empress”?
In order to get votes for Li Yue, Li Yue’s fans called over their classmates and friends. They even took out their own private accounts, which they had treasured for a long time, in order to get more votes for Li Yue.
On the other hand, Jiang Yu’s fans were just obediently getting votes for Jiang Yu. No matter how many votes were cast, they were all votes that Jiang Yu had obtained.
So in the end, Li Yue’s votes were far higher than Jiang Yu’s.
And the votes for ‘The Chu Family Empress’ were also far higher than ‘Ruyi’.
This number made some people very satisfied and they started to boycott Jiang Yu on the Internet. “I knew that this newcomer couldn’t be compared to the movie queen. That’s it? She still has the nerve to be the female lead?”
“That’s right. What was the director thinking at that time? How could he let Jiang Yu be the female lead?”
Even though there were many gossips on the Internet, Jiang Yu didn’t mind it. She continued to film her scenes in peace and wasn’t disturbed by external factors.
On the other hand, it was Jiang Ran. She had previously thought that the decline in the viewership ratings of ‘The Chu Family Empress’ was due to a mistake in her performance.
But looking at the numbers now, Li Yue’s votes far surpassed Jiang Yu’s and her viewership ratings were also much higher than Jiang Yu’s.
Even if she really wanted to catch up, it wouldn’t be an easy task.
From the looks of it, the drop in the viewership ratings of the previous episode wouldn’t have much of an impact in the future.
‘The netizens were more tolerant now. As long as Li Yue was in charge, then this little mistake of hers wasn’t worth mentioning. “The Chu Family Empress’ relied on Li Yue to easily win the viewership ratings.
She was filled with joy as she thought about it and relaxed her energy while acting.
Even though she would still be suppressed by Li Yue when acting against her, Jiang Ran did not think that it was a big problem.
The more she thought like this, the worse the filming was.
However, this TV series was broadcasting each episode as they filmed. If they had demanded too much of Jiang Ran’s acting, then they would not be able to catch up with the speed of the broadcast.
“Jiang Ran!” The director could not stand it. “What are you acting?! Can you still act?”
Jiang Ran then said very apologetically that she would definitely act well, but the effect of the shooting was just so-so.
‘The drama was already almost halfway through shooting, so it was very troublesome to change the person at the last minute.
Moreover, Jiang Ran had already appeared in a lot of scenes on the Internet, and everyone was already beginning to get familiar with her.
If she were to be replaced like this, they wouldn’t be able to explain things to the audience.
However, it was precisely because of Jiang Ran’s unenterprising attitude that when the episode was broadcasted online, it had received a bunch of negative reviews.
“What is this? This Chu Xuan? Anyone on the street can act better than her, right?”
“Director, worst comes to worst, let’s replace this actress?”
Jiang Ran’s terrible performance and her unmotivated attitude during filming, coupled with the negative reviews on the internet, made the “The Chu Family Empress” director have the intention of changing actors.
Jiang Ran originally thought that she could rely on Li Yue to save the viewership ratings, but now that she looked at it, the netizens had a lot of opinions about her. Even the director started to waver..
