Chu An looked at Gu Xiao’s confident expression and couldn’t help but smile.
Gu Xiao looked at Chu An’s smiling face, and her originally tense expression couldn’t help but relax.
Of course, she didn’t tell Chu An either. Even if Apple TV didn’t agree to this idea, she had other ways to make “Peony Fall” broadcast during this winter break.
After all, they had only prepared Peony Fall during the winter break. If Peony Fall could not be broadcasted during the winter break, it would mean that their Star Brilliance would be vacant during the winter break. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝒃𝙣𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝓶
Now was the time when Star Brilliance needed to be careful. They definitely could not do nothing about this period of vacancy!
Star Brilliance could not let go of this market for winter break no matter what!
The next night, Huang Tu’s “Meeting Love Around the Corner” was broadcasted on Apple TV’s prime time slot. That day, Huang Tu spent a lot of money to buy nearly 20 trending topics to promote “Meeting Love Around the Corner”.
After Meeting Love Around the Corner was broadcasted, the official accounts of Meeting Love Around the Corner and Apple TV were immediately attacked.
Among these attacks, there were fans of Mi Rui, Lu Yu, and the other actors who starred in “Peony Fall”. There were also fans of the male lead of “Meeting Love Around the Corner”, fans who were looking forward to “Peony Fall”, and fans of other celebrities. All kinds of fans and passersby were sandwiched together, making the trending searches look very ugly.
Especially under the nearly 20 trending topics that Huang Tu had bought, it was completely a good venue for netizens to vent. There were even scolding statements below.
[What the f*ck is this?! It’s fine that the female lead is fat, but she’s also so f*cking ugly. It’s simply polluting my eyes! Is this what Huang Tu is supporting now? Huang Tu is an old management company, for better or worse. Is their taste so bad?]
[I’m just a passerby, and 1 don’t take anyone’s side. However, after watching an episode of Meeting Love Around the Corner, 1 really don’t know what to say. This drama is really inferior to that Peony Fall! At least the costumes of Peony Fall are much better than this! If even a modern drama’s costumes look like this, how can they still have the cheek to release it?]
[Brother is really unlucky to have met such a female lead! Her acting skills are dull and boring, and her lines are obviously dubbed. Even if Huang Tu wants to promote a newbie, they can’t ruin our Brother like this, right?]
[Hehehe, Huang Tu is dead. I’m preparing to send a blade!]
[A television drama is not as good as even the promotional video for Peony Fall. Is Apple TV blind? Why did they choose such a drama to release?]
[Can’t this kind of trash stay in the trash can properly? Do you still have to release it to let passers-by like us suffer?]
Meeting Love Around the Corner had just aired an episode, and all kinds of shortcomings were pointed out.
Coupled with the fact that Peony Fall had been squeezed out of the schedule by it previously, the fans who had been looking forward to Peony Fall criticized this drama even more.
Even if there were ghostwriters and some fans of Huang Tu, this could not be avoided so that the reputation of Meeting Love Around the Corner would rise.
Instead, because of their cleansing of the negative comments, more netizens boycotted Meeting Love Around the Corner.
The netizens’ boycott caused Meeting Love Around the Corner’s viewership ratings to only be 0.3 on the day it was broadcasted. As time passed, this viewership ratings continued to decrease.
At the end of the second episode, the viewership ratings were only left with a pitiful 0.12.
Such viewership ratings would be considered a flop even in some mainstream dramas, let alone an idol drama. This was so low, to the point that it was about to penetrate the earth’s core.
As soon as this viewership rating was released, the netizens became even angrier and immediately targeted Apple TV.
[I’m really impressed. I don’t even know what to say about the drama selection department of Apple TV. Look at all this trash. Even if you f*cking put up an advertisement, it won’t just have a 0.12 viewership rating! But the advertisement can still be charged. What’s the use of your drama? Just because it is cheap?]
[I knew it. Meeting Love Around the Corner isn’t a good drama. Look at the current situation. Hurry up and switch back to Peony Fall!]
[Apple TV’s good hand have really been played terribly! Star Brilliance’s productions have always had a good reputation.. If Peony Fall was broadcasted, the viewership ratings would not be so low no matter what!]
