Recently, according to Van Hop's statistics on July 13, the Chinese-language drama " Love School 2 " dropped significantly in viewership, down to only 25.52 million views.
"Love School 2" has dropped to the Top 3 of Van Hop's rankings for 2 consecutive days, losing to "You're more beautiful than starlight" and "Do Hoa Nien". Although the film had previously ranked Top 1 for 3 days.
Actors and producers used many measures to encourage audiences to watch the movie, but the performance of "Love School 2" still dropped incredibly.
On July 11, the main cast of Yang Zi, Truong Van Y, Dang Vi, Dan Kien Thu, Vuong Hoang Nghi and Dai Lo Wa were present at the press conference to promote the film.
The film crew launched an additional 11,000 VIP packages to watch free movies monthly on the Tencent platform. To date, about 50,000 VIP packages have been launched to increase the temperature of the film.
To get this VIP package, the audience must watch "Love School 2" for a full 15 minutes. The film crew launched the VIP package at the same time, forcing the audience to watch the movie at the same time, which boosted the movie's temperature.
However, this action caused "Love School 2" to be sarcastically called "cheating" when it reached 30,000 temperature points in the middle of the night on Tencent.
With the explosion of part 1 last year, "Long Tu Tuong 2" before airing was expected to become a rival to the famous historical drama "Khanh Du Nguoi 2" starring Truong Nhuoc Quan, or Achieve success like "Dau phoenix action" by Trieu Le Dinh.
But in less than a week, "Long Tu Tu 2" even lost to "Do Hoa Nien" - a work with two less famous actors than Duong Tu, Truong Lang Hach and Trieu Kim Mach, taking on the main roles.
Up to now, some audiences predict that "The Love Story 2" may fail like "Love Fox Tieu Hong Nuong: Nguyet Hong Thien" by Duong Mich and Cung Tuan.
There are many reasons why the audience stopped watching "Love School" even though part 1 was very successful.
Many opinions say that the film has been adapted far away from the original novel's content. The plot of the male lead Thuong Huyen's ( Truong Van Y ) power plot was overlooked, while the film only focused on the troubled love story of the female lead Tieu Yeu (Yang Zi).
The character Tieu Yeu was criticized for having ambiguous feelings for many men at the same time, especially Do Son Canh (Dang Vi) and Tuong Lieu (Dan Kien Thu).
