Chapter 415: Catfight 1
It was originally thought that with a big production like "Deep Palace," their "Allure" would be fighting for survival in the crack, lucky to even get a sip of the soup.
But they couldn’t even catch a breath of the northwest wind!
After the two episodes of "Allure" aired, the viewership was less than seventy thousand.
With just one episode, "Deep Palace" surpassed one hundred million views on each of the three major online platforms!
The viewership for regular videos was two hundred million, while catch-up videos reached one hundred and eighty million, and Trendy Vision videos were at one hundred and seventy million.
Adding up the three websites, the total viewership was five hundred and fifty million!
The next day, the ratings for the satellite TV broadcast were also released, and without a doubt, they were firmly in first place!
At this point, "Deep Palace" was on fire, exploding across the entire internet.
The topic #DeepPalacePremiere# even soared to the top of the hot search overnight.
All the major headlines discussed "Deep Palace’s" plot, the exquisite costumes and props, and how good the actors’ performances were, truly a rare conscience drama in recent years.
In comparison, "Allure" was neglected, with a gloomy and depressing air.
It was then that a Weibo big V, Xiao Ba, published an article.
"Without comparison, there is no harm done. Last night saw the premiere of two costume dramas, presenting a stark contrast.
"Deep Palace" clocked up a viewership of 550 million, setting the highest record for a premiere this year.
On the other hand, the other costume drama, "Allure," which has been incessantly hyped but still failed to take off, premiered with just 68,000 views, hitting the lowest record for this year’s premieres.
The combination of a has-been director and faded leading actress ended in dismal failure.
It seems the entertainment industry is still a place that values real talent; titles obtained through luck, underhanded tactics, and bribery are nothing but empty shells after all.
If there were more actresses in the industry like Chu Ying, who have real talent and are willing to work hard, we would see more conscience dramas.
Not like some, who only know how to take shortcuts, thinking that spreading their legs will get them to the top..."
Xiao Ba only had one million followers, and normally an article wouldn’t stir much, but it touched on the currently hottest two dramas.
It also involved Chu Ying, who is currently the popular Ratings Queen, and Xia Weibao, who is now controversially dominating the headlines, so it quickly reached the top of the hot search.
The comments soared, all mocking Xia Weibao for being washed up.
Xia Weibao’s past scandals were once again dragged out for public censure.
Vulgarities came pouring down like spilled ink, enveloping everything.
The increasingly excessive comments finally enraged Xia Weibao’s fans.
Our Queen may not have many gems, but they are all die-hard fans.
Just how loyal they are, see for yourself from the five beauties in Director Lu’s office and the employees at Youju Company.
My goddess is a fairy from the heavens, not someone you mortals can insult.
Dare insult my goddess, I’ll fight you to the death!
Beat one to death if possible, and if not, beat them directly until they are!
Yang Liu had five accounts on her own, but Third Chicken was even more fierce, employing hacker techniques, launching a hundred accounts simultaneously!
—— Knock it off! Have you guys even watched "Allure"? What gives you the right to blindly yap here!
—— Chu Ying’s acting? That’s called acting? Not having seen the world is not your fault, but showing off your ignorance is!
—— Exactly, all the acting is just hyped up. "Deep Palace," right? I also went to take a look last night and really didn’t see what acting is supposed to be.
—— I dare to say that if you watched "Deep Palace" and felt nothing, if you dare to say you watched the first episode of "Allure" and still felt nothing, I’ll livestream eating shit! I mean what I say!
—— The guy above is awesome, support Baby to the end!
—— Love Baby, no regrets!
—— Smearing our Baby to elevate oneself, could Chu Ying’s publicity tricks be any more disgusting...
