Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 612: Chapter 610 Replay [Update 1]

Everyone should know what kind of person Lu Xiaobu is by now.

Say it once, and that’s it, say do it, and it gets done.

So, he immediately picked up his phone and dialed the number that Chang Yong’an had called him from before!

”Hello, grandson, enjoying Bright Sword, are you?”

If Lu Xiaobu had a good temper with this kind of person, then he wouldn’t be Lu Xiaobu!

”You!”

Chang Yong’an’s face turned green the moment he heard Lu Xiaobu’s words.

Fuck you, Lu Xiaobu, who the hell starts cursing right off the bat?!

”Are you ready to kneel down and beg?”

Lu Xiaobu sneered, his voice filled with disdain: ”Don’t try to play the scoundrel with me. If you dare to play dirty, then I’ll teach you what it really means to be a scoundrel!”

”Don’t be arrogant! You haven’t won yet! Right now, our numbers are still double yours! We are the ones winning this time!” Chang Yong’an roared over the phone.

”Oh? Really? Take it slow, don’t you have a clue in your heart about whether you’ve won or not?” Lu Xiaobu said leisurely.

Then he hung up the phone.

Chang Yong’an was listening to the dial tone on the other end, his face ashen.

Yeah, he had a damn clue alright!

The outcome of a TV series is never determined by just one episode, but by the overall performance!

If Bright Sword continues to chase at the pace of the first episode, it will soon leave Youth Never Falls Behind far behind.

No way! He must think of something!

Chang Yong’an’s eyes became puzzled.

Playing things by ear and not following the usual path are your, Lu Xiaobu’s, strengths, but these can also become your fatal weakness!

...

Regardless of the film company’s side, after Lu Xiaobu had given that grandson a piece of his mind and was in a good mood, he looked at Chen Feiyang and asked, ”What’s up?”

”It’s about Director Nie asking if we can rebroadcast the show,” Chen Feiyang excitedly inquired.

”Sure, you deal with him. You two are more professional in this area.”

Lu Xiaobu nodded, ”Also, how’s the evidence you’ve been collecting going?”

”We’re still collecting, but we don’t have any decisive evidence yet,” Chen Feiyang replied.

”Alright then, put some more effort into it.”

Lu Xiaobu nodded.

”Yes!” Chen Feiyang responded.

...

Soon, the news that Bright Sword could be rebroadcast spread.

Instantly, the audience was ecstatic!

”Yay! Young Master Bu really cares about us! Hahaha!”

”Watch it again, watch it again!”

”I started watching halfway through, this time I must watch it from the beginning!”

”Right, and I have to bring friends along! Can’t let them miss out on such a legendary show!”

”Exactly, exactly!”

”...”

Soon, those people started calling friends to join them.

As for Youth Never Falls Behind.

They also announced a rebroadcast.

But then something they didn’t understand happened.

When Bright Sword announced a rebroadcast, it was a major event, calling all friends to watch!

But when they announced a rebroadcast, it actually caused their viewership to drop!

There was virtually no mention of Youth Never Falls Behind online.

Even if they tried to create their own buzz, hardly anyone followed suit.

This puzzled them greatly.

Finally, a post by someone unraveled their confusion.

”Psh, when ’Bright Sword’ is rerun, everyone wants to analyze the plot. What’s the point of rerunning ’Youth Never Falls Behind’? Even die-hard fans only need to watch it once; watching it again is no different from looking at the poster! Better off watching the more controversial ’Bright Sword’!”

The person who posted this was Xiao Li.

As a successfully corrected fan from the fandom, she had the most authority to speak on this matter!

The comments below also came in droves.

”Yeah! Feels pretty pointless!”

”I could watch it, but my boyfriend watched ’Youth Never Falls Behind’ with me yesterday, so today I have to spend time with him.”

”My boyfriend too. He talked about it all night yesterday, saying if he doesn’t watch it, he can’t even communicate with others anymore; I had no choice but to agree!”

”You’re all rubbish! Look at me; I insisted on making my boyfriend watch my ’husbands’ on screen, and we broke up over it!”

”Yeah, let’s break up!”

”What?! What did you say? How dare you break up with me?! Ah!”

”...”

After this post was discovered by the television company, they were kicking themselves!

They had not anticipated that their countermeasures would end up shooting themselves in the foot!

Damn it! Why does everything Lu Xiaobu does work out great, yet when they do the same thing there’s no effect – they only get scolded instead!

...

Time passes.

The next morning, the first episode of ’Bright Sword’ was rerun.

”Truly satisfying! Dammit, I knew I should have watched it yesterday!”

”Yeah! Others have watched it twice, and I’ve only seen it once; I’ve lost out big time!”

”Poor Zhu Zi, the sweet potatoes are burnt out!”

”Sigh, but at least Zhang Dabiao didn’t die, an incredible stroke of luck!”

”Li Yunlong’s been demeaned! Look at him; it made me laugh so hard!”

”...”

After the rerun, the ratings for ’Bright Sword’ surged again, making the television company extremely nervous.

Then, in the afternoon, the second episode of ’Bright Sword’ was broadcast.

This time, countless people were glued to their TVs!

The television company’s ratings were out!

The moment they were released, their hearts sunk!

From the initial threefold gap to twice the gap after the first episode aired, it had now narrowed to only one and a half times!

Because, after watching the rerun in the morning, many people chose ’Bright Sword’ over ’Youth Never Falls Behind’ in the afternoon!

Their reason was solid; they could always watch the rerun of ’Youth Never Falls Behind’ tomorrow!

They were curious to see how Li Yunlong would reform the Independent Group!

The people at the television company were beating their chests and stamping their feet!

”Dammit! If I had known, I wouldn’t have rerun it!”

”What the hell is this?!”

”Are we stupid?! We not only failed to hit Lu Xiaobu, but we also ended up helping them!!”

”Damn it! I can’t accept this!”

”...”

The second episode began.

And it, too, caused a huge response.

”Sure enough, Li Yunlong got released! The conversation between the Regiment Commander and Li Yunlong cracked me up. So even Li Yunlong can be afraid of someone!”

”Li Yunlong is really a bandit! He just took the military uniform. Listen to this talk; I’m still the factory manager! Do you need to manage that?”

”My God! So tragic! The Independent Group suffered such heavy casualties?! And they were only up against a small enemy unit! It’s too tragic! The sacrifices in the war back then were too great!”

”But, they are all heroes! All fell facing the enemy! Not one retreated!”

”Poor Kong Jie! Ah, so sad! Li, you must avenge him!”

”Yeah, Li Yunlong was transferred yesterday, and today it’s Kong Jie’s turn.”

”That young soldier’s words really brought me to tears! I couldn’t help but think of my own Company Commander back in the day!”

”Kong Jie cried! It just broke my heart! A man’s tears do not fall lightly, only when the heart is truly hurt!”

”Why can’t he just stay and avenge himself?! Li Yunlong, Commander Li, please help him!”
