Chapter 790: Chapter 390: The World-Famous Dance! This Will Rock the New Year’s Eve Gala

[Charleston Dance information has been sent. Copyright for the accompanying music has been registered. The music has been dispatched!]

Chen Jincheng was a little surprised to see this notification.

As the information flooded his mind, a USB drive materialized in his hand.

He hadn’t expected it to be a dance from a world-famous scene. The note about the copyright registration also confirmed that this dance didn’t exist in this world.

This dance wasn’t just famous in his home country. Setting aside the special historical reasons from his past life, this dance had been an international sensation.

Especially in Europe, it had become a part of their social dance culture. In fact, you could see traces of it in many Western popular dances.

’The key is that this dance is genuinely fun and incredibly cheerful.’ In his previous life, quite a few celebrities had gone wild with it. One singer even created an infamous scene on a variety show by dancing it so terribly.

’Wouldn’t this be perfect to perform at the Sujiang TV New Year’s Eve Gala?’

Besides, he was also thinking about which of the girls he should take to the gala for some exposure.

’Might as well take them all.’

Before the gala, he could have each of the girls upload a video of themselves dancing the Charleston. With its fun and cheerful nature, the dance was sure to attract attention and generate a lot of buzz.

Then, when he led them on stage, the more buzz the girls had generated, the more epic it would be. They would completely blow up the stage at Sujiang TV’s New Year’s Eve Gala.

He got excited just thinking about it.

This excitement stirred his body as well, and he immediately pulled Ximeng in for a passionate kiss.

Only then did Ximeng get up, hurrying to the door to let Sister Hehe in.

When she opened the door, she saw the impeccably dressed Sister Hehe standing outside.

Sister Hehe glanced at the corner of Ximeng’s mouth and teased, "In such a hurry?"

Ximeng awkwardly wiped her mouth.

Closing the door, Sister Hehe put an arm around Ximeng as they walked in, only to stop in stunned silence at the sight of Chen Jincheng, with his guard completely down, performing a strange dance.

She couldn’t help but tease, "Now that *All is Well*, *Taking Dad to Study Abroad*, and *My Biological and Stepfather* have all been released, you’re still in the mood for this?"

Chen Jincheng smiled. "What else can I do? The first day’s ratings won’t decide the winner anyway. With this level of hype, the number of people paying attention to the three shows will be about the same. We’ll have to wait for word-of-mouth to determine the outcome."

However, one thing was certain. In his previous life, *All is Well* didn’t have a huge marketing push, so its premiere only got a 1.05 rating. Later, it broke a 2.0 rating on the back of good word-of-mouth.

Furthermore, its average online viewership per episode reached 150 million. While that couldn’t compare to *Raging Storm*, it still surpassed *Qingyun Year 1*.

It was also the first time a modern-day slice-of-life drama had achieved such results.

To put it another way, the combined views for both seasons of Fan Xian’s show, plus the boost from the novel, barely broke 10 billion topic views on Tiao Yin. That was only about 3 billion more than Su Daqiang.

Simply put, in a single-season comparison, Fan Xian couldn’t even measure up to Su Daqiang, a supporting character from *All is Well*. And he was no match at all for the terrifying 35-billion-plus figure for Gao Qiqiang from *Raging Storm*.

And now, thanks to him, the hype for *All is Well* was countless times higher than in his previous life. It was going to explode right from the start, and its performance would definitely be better than before.

As for *Taking Dad to Study Abroad*, its premiere rating was very high, reaching 1.31. But what came after was a different story. The rating dropped to 0.93 on the second day. As the female lead fell for someone else for no reason and all sorts of bizarre character archetypes emerged, the show even earned the nickname "Everyone is Su Daqiang." Its ratings were cut in half, and its score on a certain review site was the lowest of all of 2019.

Then there was *My Biological and Stepfather*. It also started strong—after all, its creative team was incredibly powerful—and also broke a 1.3 rating. But as the scumbag dad and plots involving moral blackmail appeared, the ratings were slashed in half. In the later stages, it was only around 0.7, at one point even dipping below 0.5.

Although the show scored a 3.7 on that same review site, higher than *Taking Dad to Study Abroad*, it was unfortunately still voted the worst drama of 2019—the most unbelievable pile of shit.

The reason was simple: the show’s creative team and cast were truly terrifyingly stacked.

It was precisely this lineup that created a huge sense of deception, leading to Uku getting screwed so badly they didn’t know what hit them.

So, as far as Chen Jincheng was concerned, he didn’t need to worry about the first day’s ratings at all. If those two shows could break 1.3 on their premiere in his past life, they certainly could in this world. In fact, with the current level of hype, their premiere ratings might even be higher than before.

As for online viewership, both shows were on Uku in his past life, so there was no point of reference.

But now that the three shows had been released, many people were watching, and the word-of-mouth should be starting to ferment.

And that was indeed the case. Many people were paying close attention to the three dramas, especially film review bloggers and short-form video editors, who watched them right away.

Zhang Keke was one of them. When Tiao Yin released its video editing feature, she seized the opportunity to become a video clip blogger. Thanks to her witty commentary and unique insights, she had amassed three million followers.

With so much buzz online about the three new dramas, she naturally had to be the first to edit and release her review.

The first one she watched was *All is Well*, because it was Chen Jincheng’s show.

’Chen Jin is so handsome.’

As soon as the show started airing, she began watching.

To be honest, the beginning of the first episode of *All is Well* was a bit bland. The mother dies, the children return home—there wasn’t much of a hook.

She was starting to think that maybe Chen Jincheng’s eye for film and television really wasn’t all that great.

’The beginning really is too dull.’
