Xu Dashi held the same stance as what he had told Manager Wu earlier.

Guo Qingchen also expressed his dissatisfaction and belief that the reason for ‘Broken Continent’s’ excellent results compared to ‘Nine Heavens’ was because of the marketing promotion it received.

However, Xu Dashi rebutted Guo Qingchen with a single sentence.

“If that’s the case, then I’ll decide to arrange for ‘Nine Heavens’ to receive the same promotion tomorrow,” Xu Dashi said. “The same promotion.”

“The same type of promotion as ‘Broken Continent’ was only for today. At noon tomorrow, the trailer for the third and fourth episodes of ‘Nine Heavens’ will go online, and we will set up a reminder notification in advance. We will have the four-day membership promotional activity for those who watch episodes three to six in the evening, at 7 o’clock,” Xu Dashi said, “Will that do?”

Xu Dashi didn’t think of this at the last minute.

When he had decided on the promotional plans for ‘Broken Continent’, he had expected Guo Qingchen to have such a reaction and thus, prepared a set of alternative plans.

If Guo Qingchen really used this as an excuse to protest, Xu Dashi would throw out this set of alternative plans.

Guo Qingchen:”…”

He suddenly hesitated.

To agree or not to agree?

If he agreed, there would be a good promotion.

But if the results were not good, he would have run out of excuses.

Even if he did not admit it, everyone would know that ‘Nine Heavens’ was not as good as ‘Broken Continent’.

Most importantly, he already had the feeling that the broadcast volume of ‘Nine Heavens’ would not increase by much even after it receives the same promotion.

“Director Xu, how can this be compared fairly? ‘Nine Heavens’ has already finished broadcasting for a day,” Guo Qingchen said.

Xu Dashi replied irritably, “Director Guo, must we put things so bluntly? Don’t tell me I’m less aware than you of how the effects of using the same marketing promotion on the second day of the broadcast would be.”

“Just say whether you agree or not and stop pestering me. Otherwise, Kefeng Films won’t dare to work with you again in the future. When results are not satisfactory, instead of reflecting on yourself for the reason and simply asking the platform to promote and alter the viewership data for you,” Xu Dashi said, “If we do that when the show doesn’t do well, we can just change to another director! Why must we hire you to do it?”

Xu Dashi was very rude to Guo Qingchen, but Guo Qingchen didn’t dare to be rude to Xu Dashi.

Guo Qingchen held back his anger and gritted his teeth as he said, “Yes.”.

Why shouldn’t I refuse it?

I might have a chance to turn things around if I accept this offer.

Even if the results weren’t as good as ‘Broken Continent’, at least it wouldn’t look too bad.

Guo Qingchen clenched his jaw, his chest feeling extremely stifled.

He had never suffered such a grievance before.

No one had ever spoken to him so rudely.

However, he could only endure it.

“Then what are Director Guo’s thoughts on the alteration of the viewership data?”Xu Dashi asked again.

Guo Qingchen sneered silently.

If the viewership data for ‘Nine Heavens’ was going to be changed, then ‘Broken Continent’ will get theirs altered too.

Then what was the point of changing it?

Guo Qingchen didn’t dare to come to a decision yet. “Let’s see the results tomorrow first.”

“Okay,” Xu Dashi agreed indifferently.

Guo Qingchen couldn’t fall asleep and had insomnia.

All he could think about was whether or not the results would be good tomorrow.

He was already a little anxious now.

But the Tan family members had a very good sleep.

Tan Jinqi had fought a very beautiful first battle.

He ruthlessly slapped the faces of those who didn’t think highly of him.

Tan Jinqi became famous because of this and took the first step towards success.

He had a good starting point.

And Tan Mo, who had successfully helped her two brothers, slept even more soundly.

By the next night at 8:00 pm.

It was exactly 24 hours.

On the official page of the video of Kefeng Films, one could see the Popularity Rating.

However, only Kefeng Films’ technology department knew how the Popularity Rating was calculated.

Just based on the Popularity Rating alone, one couldn’t tell how many views a series had.

However, there was a data platform called Yunqing which probably had cooperation with all the major platforms. Therefore, it would release the data of all the major platforms regularly every day.

Yunqing Data Platform released a lot of data, including the comprehensive index of each artist, and their commercial value data. There was also the popularity of each major video platform’s dramas, the number of broadcasts views, the ranked ratings of the latest TV dramas, and so on.

The relevant data could be seen on Yunqing Data Platform, and it was very open and transparent.

However, Yunqing Data Platform only summarized the results of the previous day’s data and did not provide real-time data queries.

That was why Manager Wu asked Manager Niu about the backstage data last night.

No one had given proof on whether the data provided by the Yunqing Data Platform was real.

At least, the major video platforms and artists did not come forward to accuse the data provided by the Yunqing Data Platform of being false.

And most of the netizens were just inquisitive onlookers.

Even if it was fake, the netizens had no way to prove it.

Moreover, without the Yunqing Data Platform, no one knew where else they could get some entertainment.

Yunqing Data Platform was a place for them to receive some sort of gossip topics.

At 8 o’clock, the official account of the Yunqing Data Platform on Weibo posted a long picture.

The first picture recorded the number of views of the episodes of the online dramas being broadcast on various major video platforms.

‘Broken Continent was ranked first.

March 25th, viewership ranking of exclusive streaming platform films:

Ranking: —- Show Name:—–Number of Episodes:—- Viewership:—-

1 —- Broken Continent—–1——260 million(exclusive broadcast on Kefeng Films)

2—–Storm————6———-80 million (exclusive broadcast on Peanut Videos)

3—–Childhood Love—-12———45 million (exclusive broadcast on Fruit Pie Films)

Before they even finished looking at the rest of the picture, Tan Jinyi exclaimed in excitement, “First place! The first episode of ‘Broken Continent’ last night had 260,000,000 views! Amazing!”

Tan Jinsheng’s eyes lit up, “I remember that the last series that was highly raved was the idol series, ‘Schrodinger’s Favorite’, which had just finished broadcasting. The highest number of views for a single episode was 250 million. That was only after the last episode. The highest number of views for a single episode was not from the first 24-hour views for the latest episode. ‘Broken Continent’ has started airing and had 260 million views in its first episode. It will only be higher in the future.”

Although Tan Wenci was happy, he still reminded them, “Don’t forget that there will be a membership promotion to get people to watch the show. I wonder how many views there will be after the promotion is over.”

“I believe that it will get higher and higher.” Xu Mingzhen was confident, “The netizens have such a high opinion of this show. Even if many people had watched for the sake of obtaining the membership, they will be attracted after watching the first episode and will continue watching it.”

“Kefeng Films even gave the same promotion to ‘Nine Heavens’ today.” Tan Wenyi rubbed his hands and said, “Let’s see how many views ‘Nine Heavens’ can have tomorrow.”

“Right, why would Kefeng Films give the same promotion to ‘Nine Heavens’?” Xu Mingzhen asked Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo curiously.

“I know why,” Tan Mo explained. “Today, President Xu told me that Manager Wu and Guo Qingchen went to the technical department last night to alter the viewership data.”

“How shameless. They know they couldn’t compete with us, so they’re planning to cheat..” Xu Mingzhen said sneeringly.
