Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 405: Chapter 403: Overlooking the World [4th Update for Narcolepsy]

Seeing this ratings.

The ”Hot Voice” show team.

Silence.

Dead silence.

This is an astonishing shock that leaves one speechless!

...

Another show team.

”Who can tell me this is wrong?! How on earth could it be freaking 2.07%?”

A leader slammed the table, bellowing in disbelief.

No one spoke.

And no one could answer the leader’s question.

There’s no mistake, it’s impossible to be wrong, this rating is real, really 2.07%!

...

The team that bought the Japan rights.

The office area is now in total chaos, completely in disorder!

”What’s going on? What the heck is going on?”

”Our ratings... have been, been surpassed by ’The Voice’!?”

”Oh my God!”

”There must be a mistake somewhere!”

”Why is this happening!”

”Damn! Has everyone gone mad? How could ’The Voice’ be this high!”

”...”

Shimen TV Station.

Director Nie rushed over in a panic: ”Is it out? Has it come out?”

No one responded, no one spoke.

”Will you guys speak up, Zhang Feng? Elder Wang?” Director Nie, sweating with anxiety, asked, ”Could it be a flop?!”

He snatched the form out of Zhang Feng’s hands: ”Holy cow! 2.07%!!!!”

He looked at the data, felt dizzy, leaned back, and fell silent!

He was stunned into idiocy!

Yes, like Zhang Feng and Elder Wang, they were all stunned into idiocy!

...

Inside Lu Group.

”Is it out?”

”It’s out!”

”How much!?”

”2.07%!”

”Damn, for real? That high?! Unbelievably freaking incredible!”

”Hahahaha, who cares! Young Master Bu is awesome! Let’s go, let’s go for barbecue!”

”Together! Young Master Bu is awesome!”

”...”

The industry was shaken!

The entire nation was also astounded!

”The Voice” ratings top the variety show industry...

Number one in the nation for the same time slot!

Number one in the nation for the week!

Number one in the nation for the month!

Number one in the nation for the year!!

And moreover, this is just the first episode’s ratings!

Countless viewers didn’t know how to express their feelings.

Countless industry insiders also didn’t know how to express their astonishment.

They only felt as if ten thousand, a hundred thousand, a million ”grass mud horses” were galloping across their minds, galloping back, and then galloping across again!

Now many people think back on the topic of predicting ”The Voice” ratings that was launched, and it’s simply a huge joke!

What were those options?

Below 0.5%?

0.5%-0.8%?

0.8%-1.0%?

1.0%-1.2%?

1.2%-1.5%?

The public’s votes were void, not a single person guessed ”The Voice”’s ratings correctly.

Because, because ”The Voice”’s ratings freaking didn’t appear in any of these five options at all!

The options that surpassed 1.5% ratings weren’t freaking given!

Why wasn’t there such an option?

Why wasn’t there an option above 1.5%?

It wasn’t a mistake by the officials who initiated the topic.

It’s because no one ever believed that the premiere ratings of a variety show could possibly exceed 1.5%!

Not to mention exceeding this rating, even reaching 1.5% was thought impossible by everyone!

Therefore, the initiators of the topic never prepared for this option, nor did they ever consider this possibility. The history of variety shows in recent years told them it was impossible and years of experience in the television industry also told them it was impossible!

But now, ”The Voice” has done it!

In a market where the average variety show ratings are mere decimals of a percent, Lu Xiaobu has achieved a 2% viewership rate!

All doubters have been silenced!

All scoffers have been quieted!

They no longer had any right to point fingers at ”The Voice” or Lu Xiaobu!

...

The media went crazy!

”Lu Xiaobu: A Man Who Created a Miracle!”

”The Voice’s Rating Explosion! A Dawn for Domestic Variety Shows!”

”The Voice Tops Variety Show Ratings! Takes Number One Nationwide!”

”How Did ’The Voice’ Achieve Over 2% Ratings? A Miracle in the Making?”

”The Voice Leads Domestic Rights in Declaring War Against Foreign Variety Show Rights!”

”Domestic Program Strikes! Lu Xiaobu Sounds the Counterattack! Overpowers All Foreign Programs!”

”A Miracle? No, This Is a Divine Feat!”

”Today Belongs to Lu Xiaobu and His Voice!”

”A Hero in Television, A Legend in Variety Shows, Please Applaud for The Voice, Please Applaud for Lu Xiaobu!”

”...”

On the internet at this moment.

When you open the Weibo topic leaderboard, four out of the top ten Weibo posts are about ”The Voice”!

Click on any forum, and in some entertainment sections, one out of every three posts is about ”The Voice”!

Naturally, the name Lu Xiaobu has been mentioned numerous times by netizens and the media!

Unprecedented hot discussion!

Unprecedented popularity!

You all know the term ’phenomenal.’

Phenomenal variety show, this title is the highest affirmation for a variety segment, and also the highest honor.

And there are two criteria for determining whether a variety show is phenomenal.

First is the influence of the show, second is the viewership rate.

Normally, it takes some time for a variety show to prove itself as phenomenal.

After all, viewership rates need to be solidified step by step, and popularity has to be accumulated bit by bit.

Only when a show has built up its viewership and public attention to a certain level is it recognized within the industry as phenomenal.

But ”The Voice” doesn’t need it.

It no longer requires the settling of time nor to see future performances.

It has firmly established its position with just the first episode!

An absolute phenomenal variety show!

All industry insiders, even if they dislike it, must admit, cannot deny, and dare not deny!

After all.

If a show that dominates the national variety program ratings on its premiere cannot be called phenomenal, then what show dares to claim the title!?

Netizens are also buzzing with discussion!

”Lu Xiaobu is awesome!”

”In the variety world, who can stop ’The Voice’ now?”

”Those doubters from TV stations and within the industry, I wonder where they are now, none of them has shown their face! Come out, let’s have a chat!”

”Of course, they won’t come out.”

”Who dares to come out now, their faces have been smacked blue!”

”2.07% viewership rate! It’s not just blue, I guess their teeth have been knocked out! They are busy looking for their teeth on the ground!”

”Now looking back at Lu Xiaobu’s poem, doesn’t it seem like he’s standing at the peak telling those who doubted him, do you still dare make a sound?!”

”Hahaha, you’re right, now that you mention it, it does feel like that!”

...

This poem has once again caught everyone’s attention.

It started to be wildly shared.

People from Shimen TV Station shared it.

Fans of Chen Wen and Fang Li shared it.

Fans of Grandma Jia Yi shared it.

Fans of Sun Wanqi shared it.

The official Weibo of ”The Voice” shared it.

Ten thousand!

Thirty thousand!

Fifty thousand!

One hundred thousand!

The number of shares skyrocketed and the poem surged to the top Weibo topic, claiming the headlines with an unstoppable force that destroys gods and slaughters Buddhas!

”Sitting alone by the pond like a tiger, nurturing my spirit beneath the shade of green trees.”

”Come spring, I won’t be the first to speak, which insect dares to make a noise.”

A poem that intimidates the whole scene!

Aren’t these top-ranked verses just like Lu Xiaobu standing at the peak, overlooking everyone?

At the same time, it’s like a slap in the face to those who doubted him.

Painfully hot!
