Chapter 440 The popularity is hot, the king of new topics
Penguin's bombardment of publicity, as well as the seven or eight episodes of "The Scam" with its wonderful multi-sheep scams and complicated main plot, made "The Scam" even more popular that day.
Before midnight on July 12, the total views of "Mao Liar" had exceeded 500 million.
This also makes "The Liar" the fastest TV series to reach 500 million after Penguin Video revised its data.
And according to this trend, the record of breaking 1 billion or 2 billion as soon as possible will most likely be captured by "Mao Liang". As for the higher record, it is still too early to say.
The top management of Penguin Video were really happy that "Mao Liang" did not live up to the huge investment they had made.
Not only does it outperform other TV dramas in the same period in terms of data and reputation, but it also surpasses TV dramas in the same period in various topics online.
Not to mention the TV series of the same period, even the movies and variety shows that were just released in July are currently under the influence of "Mao Liar".
In the entertainment industry in July, "Mao Liar" is the undisputed king of topics.
In the summer of 2019, "Wulin Gaiden" swept across all directions. That summer, the shadow of Tongfu Inn was everywhere.
But now, "Mao Liang" has vaguely followed the trend of "Wulin Gaiden" being popular all summer...
The two websites Kuyou and Qiguo are still struggling, and they are vaguely aware of the purpose of Penguin Video. Naturally, they will not just wait for death. I heard that they will take out the best products at the bottom of the box and broadcast them in advance.
You don’t want to be able to beat "Mao Liar", at least you can’t fail too miserably and watch Penguin Video ascend to the top of the domestic website.
The two websites fought back, and the TV series on the TV platform became much more honest.
They had been beaten up and beaten by Shanheju many times, and they had already developed resistance and did not dare to attack Shanheju easily.
In addition, the main battlefield of Shanhe this time is on the website and the TV platform. Although it is also affected, it does not damage the fundamentals. Naturally, it is too lazy to rush forward and become cannon fodder.
Even because "Mao Liang" is so strong that it has attracted most of the attention, several dramas originally planned to be broadcast in July have been postponed to avoid the limelight of "Mao Liang".
And not only outsiders want to avoid "Mao Liar", but even Shanhe Drama's own people are no exception.
Originally, "The Hidden Corner" was planned to be released in early August, which would coincide with the release of "Mao Liar".
Looking at the situation now, even if "Mao Liar" is finished, there will probably be a short buffering period. After several considerations, "The Hidden Corner" decided to change gears and move it to late August.
The number of episodes of "The Hidden Corner" is small, and if the broadcast mode is slightly changed, it can still be successfully broadcast in the summer.
Several years after the establishment of Shanhe, this is the first time that the film has been withdrawn, which shows the fierce momentum of "Mao Liar".
………
On July 13th and 14th, the ninth to twelfth episodes of "Mao Liar" will be broadcast.
The ninth episode is a unit scam. It mainly deceives a rich woman from a real estate speculator group, and also takes care of a greedy thief.
However, the bigger highlight of this episode is that Shao Zhuang joined the protagonist group, and Xiaobao passed the 200,000 test and initially approved Shao Zhuang's joining.
At the same time, he did not relax his guard against Shaozhuang. He always felt that this man had an extraordinary secret.
In addition to Shao Zhuang joining the protagonist group, the ninth episode also has some supplements and foreshadowing of the main plot, such as Shao Zhuang's joining and Dongdong's life experience, which may be related to a mysterious box.
On the other side, the Fox boss Geng Xiaohui is very ambitious and is ready to break away from some control, make the Fox organization independent, and intends to find "Yonghe".
Yonghe, the god of panic in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", when Yonghe appeared, many people died. Geng Xiaohui seemed to want to use Yonghe to achieve his own goals.
In addition, the leader of the fox organization Tiantian (Mao Tong), who had been in love with the protagonist group before, was abandoned by the fox boss because of his poor performance.
Tiantian wants to make a comeback, and she doesn't hesitate to contact Dongdong, who has a complicated relationship with the boss of the Fox Organization, hoping to get some key things and make meritorious deeds.
Dongdong is not stupid either. Tiantian wants to take advantage of him. He also wants to use Tiantian to get to know the fox's background and find out his own life experience. After all, Tiantian is the leader of the fox. Although he has been abandoned, he still has some connections.
The two people had their own goals and began a journey of happy enemies using (helping) each other.
The tenth episode is still a unit scam, but unlike the previous one, this time the fat sheep of the protagonist group has another identity.
The plot this time revolves around Hanhan who appeared before, the ex-boyfriend of An Ning who won the lottery. This time this guy was cheated. At An Ning's request, the protagonist group is ready to help Hanhan again.
The protagonist group cooperated tacitly and soon deceived Hanhan's underground Mark Lottery organization. Not only did Hanhan recover his losses, but they also made a fortune along the way.
However, Meng Kexi, the boss of this underground Mark Lottery organization, is no ordinary person. He actually belongs to the same lineage as the Fox Organization.
According to his conversation with the fox boss, he learned——
Meng Kexi's underground Mark Lottery organization and the Fox organization, which mainly engages in fraud, are both under the command of a group called [Guild]. In addition to these two organizations, there are three other organizations, collectively known as the five major companies.
The five major companies will pay a sum of money to the [Guild] every year. Because Fox is developing well, one company will pay 60%.
In other words, the other four companies are jointly drinking the blood of the fox, which is why the boss of the fox is holding back his independence.
But the four companies, which were happy to drink blood, obviously would not agree to Fox's independence, and the two sides started fighting over this.
Geng Xiaohui was able to become the boss of Fox because the other four companies had contributed somewhat.
And according to [Guild] rules, Geng Xiaohui, the boss, is not legitimate. His brother, Xing Dongdong, is the first heir.
Before, everyone thought that their brother (Xing Dongdong) was dead, so they agreed to Geng Xiaohui's appointment. Now that they heard that his brother was still alive, the four companies had the leverage to counter Geng Xiaohui.
This is also the reason why Geng Xiaohui let Xing Dongdong go before. It wasn't because he didn't want to kill him, but because everyone else was watching.
Once Xing Dongdong dies, the four companies will use this as an excuse to attack him. Even if they can keep the position of the fox boss, there is no need to think about independence. I am afraid they will have to give up a lot of benefits.
The eleventh and twelfth episodes after that are actually about the same plot, the protagonist group VS Gao Hesheng, one of the five major companies.
Gao Hesheng is the ruthless son of the five major companies, second only to the Fox Organization, and he is also very resourceful.
The first time they fought, the protagonist group was actually tricked.
These are also one of the few villains who can interact with the protagonist group, and even cause the protagonist group to suffer a small loss.
The quality of these two episodes is quite high, the various layouts and twists are dizzying, and the amount of information related to the main plot is full.
After Shao Zhuang and Xing Dongdong, two characters who are inextricably linked to the main plot, Li Wei also started to join the main cast.
In addition, in addition to Li Wei and An Ning's relationship, Xing Dongdong and Tiantian's happy friends, the male protagonist Xiaobao also has his first love, and has a relationship with the new blind girl who appeared in these two episodes...
Starting from the eighth episode, every episode of "Mao Liar" is full of high-powered scams and sufficient practical information, making the audience hooked and watching, and the popularity of the entire TV series is also rising.
As of 8 a.m. on the 15th, the total number of views of "Mao Liar" has officially exceeded 1 billion, and the Douhua score has reached 9.2.
But at the moment, what viewers of "Mao Liar" are most concerned about is not the performance of the TV series, but the advance announcement based on Penguin Video.
On Saturday and Sunday, "Mao Liang" will not be updated...
