Chapter 651: Chapter 465: I’m Waiting for You to Die!
“The ratings for ‘Langya List’ were out, and the market was filled with many pessimistic voices.
There were nurous reports about the drama bombing.
Many said Hu Ge, returning as the lead in a historical drama after many years, had faced a Waterloo.
‘Langya List’ was simultaneously broadcast on Beijing TV and Shanghai TV, leading to a diversion of viewers between the two channels.
However, looking at the ratings for both channels, the start was indeed quite poor.
Such a situation would inevitably affect the advertising impact of all sponsors.
Worse still, the ratings on the second day of airing did not improve but fell even lower, dropping a bit!
This made Shanghai TV’s ratings in the sa ti slot fall to eleventh place nationally, directly falling out of the top ten!
From the perspective of the audience base, although Shanghai TV could not match Mango TV, it was still among the top tier in various major TV stations.
Such results were truly a bit embarrassing and, frankly, a disservice to the drama’s large-scale production and heavy investnt!
At this very mont in Shanghai, inside Pulin Capital’s office.
Partners Yue Dongyi and Wang Lin were sitting together, discussing this matter.
‘Feels like the situation is a bit troubleso now,’ old man Wang Lin said.
He looked at Yue Dongyi and said, ‘Initially, after pairing up with Momo, we should have continued riding on that montum.’
‘But what happened? He insisted on pausing first to launch so many new products.’
Yue Dongyi looked at him and smilingly said, ‘But these new products also beca hits, didn’t they?’
‘I do admire that, his R&D departnt can really pinpoint custors’ taste buds precisely, but, one thing at a ti, releasing new products and partnering could have been done simultaneously,’ Wang Lin said.
After finishing, he couldn’t help but say, ‘You rember what he said last ti he ca to the eting, right?’
Yue Dongyi nodded upon hearing this.
Last ti, Cheng Zhu had said he deliberately cleared his schedule to watch the competitors make foolish moves, and then… he was going to laugh at them!
Such words were indeed arrogant, giving off the vibe of a collaborative pioneer watching clowns foolishly follow trends.
‘But look at the situation now!’ Wang Lin spread his hands, ‘Finally starting the second collaboration, and they chose such a drama!’
Both he and Yue Dongyi were from Shanghai and had taken the ti to watch Shanghai TV, and saw the news about ‘Langya List’ in the morning.
Yue Dongyi looked at the old man and said, ‘But I quite like this drama, I’ve been following it every evening these past few days.’
‘Your liking it doesn’t help, I wish more people liked it too!’ Wang Lin said with a wry smile.
Since Cheng Zhu spoke too confidently last ti, it now feels a bit like he’s slapping his own face.
You must know, this was the first ti the bubble tea industry partnered with a television drama!
Before, nobody had thought about doing such a thing with a TV drama.
Recently, indeed the bubble tea industry has seen chaotic partnerships.
Almost every significant bubble tea brand had engaged in partnerships, so doing well, others just ssing around!
Even Yue Tea pairing with sanitary pads wasn’t the most bizarre, so bubble tea brand’s moves were completely baffling.
Initially, when everyone saw Cheng Zhu, the collaboration pioneer returning, everyone held their breath.
Then, after he made his move, a single thought erupted in everyone’s mind: ‘Is that all?’
Damn, just that? Hahaha!
Ever since Cheng Zhu entered the bubble tea industry forcefully, it’s fair to say he has turned everyone’s tables.
Normally, when rookies enter a new industry, even if they eventually beco a top player, they still grow slowly at first.
Who would act like him, plunging in and upsetting the old masters with random punches, tagging us with an outdated label, and single-handedly ushering in the new era of Bubble Tea 3.0!
During this period, everyone felt a fear being dominated by him.
Whenever Youu Tea made any big move, it would cause an earthquake in the industry!
Everyone had braced themselves this ti to avoid being shocked by Cheng Zhu again.
But… he actually made a huge blunder!
This wave isn’t going to lose a small amount, is it?
Both promoting through drama sponsorship and engaging in collaborations, this involves a lot of money.
Now, it will undoubtedly be a situation of widespread ridicule.
From Wang Lin’s perspective, he genuinely felt that if the content of that eting were to leak, Cheng Zhu, this young fellow, would be nailed to the pillar of sha!
Do you still want to laugh at everyone?
Now it’s turned into everyone laughing at us!
Of course, the old man was just venting a bit in front of Yue Dongyi; he definitely wouldn’t talk about these things publicly.
Even in the next video eting with Cheng Zhu, he might even encourage this young man.
Wang Lin was a man who firmly believed in money; in his view, slandering Cheng Zhu was useless, better to inspire him to reignite his fighting spirit!
From everything in the past, he still recognized Cheng Zhu’s personal capabilities.
It’s just that this ti, the failure was quite significant, and the backlash from the competitors, these idiots, would probably be strong.
Everyone was eagerly waiting for this day, waiting to see the arrogant kid who dared to compete with Starbucks directly at the opening and touted “Creating a New Force in Bubble Tea” stumble for once.
Needless to say, there will definitely be people who would kick him while he’s down!
An opportunity like this, who wouldn’t want to take a hit?
Yue Dongyi looked at Wang Lin and simply said, ‘In business, everyone makes wrong decisions sotis; it’s completely normal, just like you and investing, haven’t we misjudged at tis?’
