According to the latest information, the Chinese TV series "Curtain of Pearls" starring Zhao Lusi and Liu Yuning did not have any commercials in episode 26.
This shocked many viewers, because “Rem ngoc chau sa” was expected to be a television “blockbuster” at the end of 2024. Before its release on the Youku platform, the film’s preview bookings exceeded 5 million.
After its release, "Curtain of Pearls" quickly broke 7,000 temperature points, becoming the film with the highest temperature on the first day of broadcast on Youku.
Notably, Trieu Lo Tu's film attracted investors very well, with 7 advertisements in the first 5 episodes, each 73 seconds long. The large number of advertisements shows investors' expectations for this work.
Up until episode 16, the show still maintained 5 commercials. But starting from episode 18, the number of commercials per episode was reduced to 2 brands, and the show had no commercials in episode 26 that just aired.
According to some opinions, “Rem ngoc chau sa” has lost its appeal because its content is becoming less and less interesting. In particular, the main couple Doan Ngo (Trieu Lo Tu) and Yen Tu Kinh (Liu Vu Ninh) are criticized for not having explosive “chemistry”.
After only a few sweet episodes, starting from episode 20, Doan Ngo and Yen Tu Kinh encountered difficulties in their love life, causing viewers to lose interest.
In addition, in a recent interview, Liu Yu Ning said that sweet scenes only take up 20-30% of the duration of “Curtain of Pearls”. The drunken kissing scene (blocking fingers in the middle) can be considered the sweetest scene in the entire film, while the main couple does not have many other sweet moments like that.
The actor confessed: "Actually, our film mainly revolves around business, not the kind of mind that is only immersed in love."
Liu Yu Ning’s comments made the audience worry that the film would have a sad ending. “The Pearl Curtain” consists of 40 episodes and is now more than halfway through.
Fans of the show expect that the next episodes will have more exciting developments to make up for the lost advertising.
Currently, "Rem ngoc chau sa" is also being surpassed by "Vinh da tinh ha" by Ngu Thu Han and Dinh Vu He on many viewing statistics platforms and rankings for film discussion and role popularity.
