That night, the new episode of the program finally went online under the anticipation of everyone.
Although Lin Xi didn't perform on stage this episode, the director specially promoted the scene where Lin Xi confronted Cai Kun, attracting countless traffic.
In the end, many of the audience members were not here to watch the other contestants sing, but to watch Lin Xi and Cai Kun fight!
Even though many netizens suspected that this scene was specially arranged by the director's team to increase the popularity of the show, they still couldn't stop the mood of watching the show.
Imperial Capital TV, which was broadcasting live at the same time, could be said to be the biggest winner. Its viewership ratings were off the charts.
"Director, our viewership ratings have reached 4.2 points!”
A staff member couldn't help but shout in the studio.
He had worked at Imperial Capital TV for eight years and had never seen such high viewership ratings. It was simply too shocking.
Generally speaking, as long as there was a viewership rating of more than one point, this variety show would be considered a popular variety show. After all, there were so many satellite channels in the country, and each year, there were more than 100 variety shows. There were also various TV dramas and news programs.
Those that could reach two points or more were basically the top variety shows of the major television stations.
Four percent. Even if it was a variety show, it could only be achieved occasionally, such as inviting a super big shot in a certain episode or the finals of a competition.
Hence, today's viewership rating of 4.2% was definitely a very glorious result.
The program began.
The first male player was naturally ignored.
The second person to go on stage was Su Zhilan. She had a good appearance and good singing skills, which attracted the support of many viewers. When the challenge failed, the audience burst out with sighs of regret.
That was until Cai Kun commented and Lin Xi stood up to refute.
"Coming, coming."
"F * ck, there's a high energy ahead.”
"The 6th National Talents Debate Competition begins now!”
"I'm here to watch the two Best Actor PK.”
It was unknown when it started, but many variety shows began to like to use gimmicks to hype up the show. They deliberately created some conflicts in the show to attract people's attention, so many viewers were used to it.
Although they knew that the program team might have done it on purpose, it still couldn't stop the audience from liking this kind of content.
As expected.
When Lin Xi stood up and rebuked Cai Kun, almost everyone in the audience applauded.
Especially when Lin Xi stood proudly and said the words " Chinese opera " word by word, the netizens instantly felt goosebumps all over their bodies.
It was too infuriating.
When Cai Kun used the fact that the Chinese music scene was inferior to the Western music scene to say that Chinese opera would eventually be eliminated, proving that the West was superior to China, the majority of netizens were furious.
"Cai Kun, get out of China. You don't deserve to be a Chinese!”
"Go to America. The moon in America is far away, and the air in America is sweeter. If you have the guts, don't make money in China.”
"Lin Xi is the real Chinese talent. Cai Kun, go and find your American father.”
"Why are you all so angry? Is Cai Kun wrong? Chinese music was indeed learned from the West. Who would still listen to opera singing nowadays?”
"Be realistic. Cai Kun only spoke the truth.”
"F * ck, you people must have received a lot of money. You're lying through your teeth. Do you still remember that you're Chinese?”
"Don't stay in Huaxia if you have the guts."
Countless netizens watched Lin Xi and Cai Kun's confrontation and were slowly influenced by their views. They took sides and entered the conversation.
Many of the netizens who had just entered were dumbfounded. Wasn't this a music competition program? When did it become a debate program?
The bullet comments exploded, and people from both sides began to argue with each other.
However, there were obviously more people supporting Lin Xi. After all, the audience was all Chinese, and many of them were unhappy with Cai Kun's comments.
In the end, Lin Xi said,""Not now, but it doesn't mean that there won't be in the future!”The netizens 'enthusiasm was completely ignited.
Now, those who wanted to support Cai Kun were useless. The situation was completely on Lin Xi's side.
More and more onlookers joined the battle.
The flames of war spread from Imperial Capital Satellite TV to Weibo, Youhu, Little Orange Book, and other major platforms.
As a result, the popularity of the show remained high. The number of views of the competition show and related videos exceeded 200 million in a day.
It directly created a record for Douyin's hot topic to reach 200 million views.
......
In a hotel in Imperial.
A group of well-dressed men and women were eating and celebrating in a private room.
The highest-ranking director among them stood up."Come, raise your glasses. Let's toast to Director Wu.”
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
Everyone stood up, clinked their glasses, and then drank it all in one go.
The people in the private room were all the members of the lyrics competition program team.
"This time, Director Wu has made a great contribution. If he wasn't sharp enough and decisive enough to stop the host at the recording site, there wouldn't be that exciting scene of Lin Xi and Cai Kun's PK.”
"In the end, we also decided to speed up the editing of the show and release it on the same night. Then, we put in a lot of promotions to buy traffic. This show won't be able to get a 4.2% viewership rating tonight.”
"I took a look just now. The show's video has already made it to the top of the trending searches on Weibo and Douyin!”
The director smiled from ear to ear.
Everyone present was in the media circle and knew the weight of the number one trending search. This was not something that could be made just because they wanted to. Many celebrities had racked their brains to create news just to get on the trending search list.
If they bought the trending searches directly, they would spend more than a million yuan, not to mention being the top trending search.
"Thank you, Director. This is the result of the hard work of all the employees present.”Director Wu smiled.
The other employees were also in high spirits. After all, it was a show that they were working on. It would be so prestigious if they told others about it.
"This Lin Xi is really a talented person. He can always bring about topics and traffic. You guys have to pay attention to him.”
"Understood, Director." Everyone said.
" Alright." The director nodded in satisfaction and said loudly,""Everyone has been doing very well recently. I promise everyone here today that as long as this show maintains its current popularity, everyone's performance bonus at the end of the year will be doubled!”
"Wow! Thank you, Director."
"That's great. Thank you, Director."
Everyone cheered, and Director Wu was also grinning from ear to ear. After drinking a glass of wine, he thought to himself, In the end, he still had to thank Lin Xi!
