Chapter 344: Damn, you really want to understate my appearance?
If you want to accomplish your mission, you must make the drama "Da Ming" a big hit.
However, because this period of Ming Dynasty history is not well known, it is difficult for the audience to empathize with the drama.
This seemed to have suddenly become a dead knot that could not be untied no matter what.
Shen Lang racked his brains and thought of many solutions, such as suggesting that Zhang Jianjun strengthen the publicity and promotion efforts, and he also cooperated with the crew to visit several major cities to promote the play.
But the number of viewers of this drama is decreasing.
Finally, Zhang Jianjun even called Shen Lang to tell him that because too few people watched the drama, the station decided to temporarily freeze the broadcast of the drama and replace it with an idol drama to be aired at the 10.30: time slot.
When "Da Ming" was broadcast, no one's attention was paid to this.
But after "Da Ming" was discontinued, the popularity of this drama became popular again for a short time.
However, this "fire" is definitely not good news for Shen Lang.
"Shen Lang, who returned to acting, finally suffered a setback in his acting career! With the suspension of "Da Ming", is Shen Lang's luck over?"
"Life cannot always be successful. The lessons of "Da Ming" tell everyone in this world that even Shen Lang will fail one day. The key is how people face failure, how to break free from the quagmire of failure, and start again!"
"Shen Lang has always been known for his ability to select scripts, but this time he made a mistake. The failure of the play "Da Ming" lies in the fact that a group of directors and actors could not clearly position themselves and mistakenly regarded themselves as artists!"
"It's too highbrow for the masses? Or is it out of touch with the audience? Is it inevitable that a TV series like this will be discontinued?"
It turns out that everyone in the crew’s WeChat group shares the latest updates every day.
But after Mango froze "Da Ming", no one spoke in the chat room.
When Shen Lang called Zhang Li and Liu Heping to ask about the latest situation, he found out.
Liu Heping has locked himself in his study for more than ten days and refused to come out.
Zhang Li even complained to him that he would never film a historical drama again.
To be honest, in Shen Lang's opinion, Zhang Li and Liu Heping are already the best historical drama directors and screenwriters in China in the world, and their works have many successful cases.
This failure left both of them devastated, which was really a pity.
But the director and screenwriter had given up, and there was no need for him, an actor, to hang himself on a tree.
Now Shen Lang has accumulated 210 million global fans thanks to Train to Busan. He can get whatever he wants if he goes all in.
"Study!"
At the command, Pandora's fan box lit up.
Shen Lang looked at the two exits of the box with anticipation.
"Puff..." A dull sound came, and the system prompted: "Because the main task has not been completed, the Pandora Fan Box function is temporarily locked..."
"????" Shen Lang was confused? What the hell, what does that mean?
At this time, the old donkey's voice rang out.
"Dear Donkey, because your previous main quest was not completed, the system will not release the next main quest. The Pandora Fan Box is one of the ways to release the system's main quests!"
"Please complete the task conscientiously, don't be afraid of difficulties, don't be sneaky, and don't try to exploit system loopholes to achieve some unspeakable secrets!"
"Oh? No, donkey, if this mission is not completed in ten years, then I won't be able to take on any missions in ten years?"
"Yes!" the old donkey answered firmly.
Shen Lang is so stupid. He wants to raise the audience's awareness and let them know about that period of history before watching "Da Ming"? Is this a joke?
This is not a one- or two-day job...
The key point is that Mango TV has frozen this drama. Damn, there is no hope of a resurgence!!!
"Old Donkey, didn't the system explain this before? How about I pay attention to it next time? This time you can be flexible and secretly cancel the task first. We can start from today, how about that?"
"Dudududu"
Suddenly, a sharp alarm sounded: "It has been detected that the host is trying to bribe the system task issuer. We are now preparing to start the double killing program for the host and the system!"
“Fuck!” So, is it true that the old donkey was half castrated?
"Forget it, forget it, let's keep the mission. It was just a joke just now!" Shen Lang was sweating coldly.
Sure enough, the next second, the alarm was lifted.
This is the end of the calf.
The main mission that cannot be bypassed, a scarred and unfair donkey that cannot help you.
What should I do? "Donkey, be strong. There is always a way out. The system now enables the exchange function. You can use your existing attribute points to exchange for any item you want, even items from parallel universes!"
“Maybe this is a solution that can help you solve your problem!”
Shen Lang's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this. Is it really possible to do this? Let's try it!
"Old Donkey, give me 1566 parallel universes where the diehard fans of The Ming Dynasty come to this world."
"Ding! Laolu has received the host's exchange request and is calculating the exchange value!"
"Host's appearance: 83. Physical fitness: 76. Ability: 60!"
"Total value of all attribute panels: 219 points. A total of 219 people can be exchanged. Host, please confirm whether to exchange?"
Shen Lang: “…………………………”
I'm speechless.
So he's a die-hard fan?
Then it would take 10,000 Shen Langs to gather 200,000 people! Damn!
It seems that fans of this drama who exchanged it crudely and directly have no hope.
Shen Lang could only think of a new idea: "How can we make the audience understand that period of history better?"
Only by understanding that period of history can the audience put themselves into the shoes of each character when watching the play.
I have to say that Shen Lang's ideas are to the point. Only by improving one's cognition can one understand some of the metaphors in the play.
"How about giving an in-depth commentary on this drama on a short video platform?" Shen Lang's first thought was to use the most popular short video platform.
But he quickly rejected this.
Because such an analysis can really make everyone understand. However, this also caused a problem, that is, everyone finished reading the outline of the plot along with the analysis.
This doesn't help with ratings, but it does help with film review scores.
But Laolu’s task requires both, PASS!
"Should we release ancient books such as "History of Ming Dynasty", "Ming Shilu" and "Ming Tongjian" so that everyone can read them?"
"Forget it. Who would be interested in reading such a big book? Besides, history books are boring. Most viewers will never read them in their lifetime, let alone study the History of Ming Dynasty for a TV series!"
PASS!
“So, are there any books that can make readers interested in learning about that period of history themselves?”
"And it can't be obscure!"
“Fun read!”
“It would be great if this could spark a wave of research into the History of Ming Dynasty!”
Suddenly, a set of books flashed through Shen Lang’s mind, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
"Old Donkey, help me check how many attribute points are needed to redeem "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"?"
"Is it "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" by Dang Nian Ming Yue? Seven o'clock!"
"Deduct it from my appearance!" Shen Lang chose the appearance with the highest stats that could be absorbed back without hesitation.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully exchanging "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"! Every word and every sentence of this book has been engraved in Donkey Bao's mind!"
As expected, Shen Lang checked the information in his mind...
We start with a file.

Aliases: Zhu Chongba, Zhu Guorui
Sex: Male

……
Shen Lang looked at the contents in his mind and jumped up from the sofa excitedly. He accidentally fell to the ground and his eye hit the corner of the coffee table.
In an instant, blood gushed out from between the fingers of his hands that were covering his eyes.
"Fuck, you're deducting my appearance, is that so direct?"
