My Son-in-law Is A War God-Chapter 813 - 814 - : Top Trending

At nearly the same time, Zhu Entertainment had also wrapped up the filming of their three variety shows.

They were also celebrating their wrap-up. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

But oh, did they make a big show out of it.

Almost everyone in Blue Sea knew about it.

However, only they knew that their work was nearly a complete copy of everything from South Korea.

The only differences were the language and the participants.

Many things that obviously didn’t fit with Dragon Country’s national conditions weren’t altered at all.

It was the very definition of shoddy, slapdash work.

You could say that Zhu Shaoneng was the complete opposite of Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen would go for quality work, even if it meant not making money.

Zhu Shaoneng, on the other hand, didn’t care about the quality of the work as long as he was making money.

In his eyes, as long as he could use the popular stars to deceive the fans and sell the shows to websites, he was done.

The rest, they didn’t care about at all.

Thanks to their vigorous promotion,

their numbers of pre-registered viewers on various video sites had surpassed a million, which was pretty explosive indeed.

But the folks at Zhu Entertainment seemed to lack any sort of self-awareness, with Bai Yuning and Zhu Shaoneng even believing that with these three shoddily-produced variety shows, they could completely crush Tianxing Media.

The programs had already been sent for review, and as soon as they passed, they could be broadcast on all the major websites immediately.

The only thing that bummed Zhu Entertainment was that they didn’t own a TV station, so they could only broadcast online.

Of course, that wasn’t really a problem, as TV stations had already been in touch with them, looking to buy the broadcast rights.

This made them even more smug.

"We must air before Tianxing Media does and completely wipe them out,"

that was Zhu Shaoneng’s demand.

Up to now, Zhu Shaoneng still believed their variety shows were identical to those of Tianxing Media, so whoever aired first would naturally gain a massive advantage.

To air ahead of schedule, he even utilized a great deal of connections and finally cleared the review in the shortest possible time.

All major websites began broadcasting simultaneously.

With the participation of well-followed stars like Bai Yuning and Qin Shuo, it truly started off with a bang.

The first episode of the show stayed high in the viewing figures.

However, a shoddily-produced work is, in the end, shoddily produced.

The audience who watched the first episode generally gave it low, even terrible, reviews.

The ratings of the show on all major websites plummeted dramatically.

From an initial nine points, it dropped to just over two.

Even though Zhu Entertainment used Internet Bots to inflate the rating to five points, they still couldn’t fend off the wave of bad reviews.

After all, the production was too shabby, and the nearly direct copying was something a lot of viewers just couldn’t stand.

"They’re sure as hell just scamming our money!"

"Exactly, what kind of trash did they make!"

"It’s a shame I was looking forward to it so much at the beginning. Bai Yuning and Qin Shuo are really unlucky to have signed with such a company."

"What a waste."

Even the fans of Bai Yuning and Qin Shuo thought these three variety shows were beyond saving.

Of course, they wouldn’t criticize their own idols, but instead, they directly denounced Zhu Entertainment.

But Zhu Shaoneng didn’t care at all; after all, he had already sold three seasons of the show, and the ones in trouble were the major websites.

Moreover, the reason he produced these shows in the first place was just to attack Tianxing Media, and as long as that goal was achieved, he wasn’t concerned about anything else.

He dialed the number of that person in South Korea: "We can start now."

He wanted Tianxing Media’s programs to die in the womb, not making a single cent, ten times worse than what they had planned for him.

At this moment, Tianxing Media was still conducting the final checks on their program.

Determined to achieve perfection.

"We should thank Zhu Entertainment, their program production is so awful, now the audience is really looking forward to our program,"

"They want to cleanse their eyes."

"But Zhu Entertainment has gone too far, haven’t they? They’ve simply copied our program, do they even have the copyright?"

"This is plagiarism, we must sue them."

While people were happy, they were also somewhat indignant.

"Let’s not worry about them for now, the key is to get our work done well. As long as our program is recognized by the audience, we will have more support when we sue Zhu Entertainment later on!"

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "As for Zhu Entertainment, I’ll think of a way to handle it. Those traitors will not have it easy, and I won’t let them off easy either!"

However, just at that moment, the marketing manager hurried over and showed everyone a piece of news: "It’s bad, the director of these three variety shows in South Korea posted on Twitter saying they only granted authorization to Zhu Entertainment.

Those three shows we have are pure plagiarism!"

Since Tianxing Media had advertised those three variety shows during the early promotional stage,

such a statement from them would inevitably have a very negative impact.

That’s why the marketing manager was in such a hurry.

"What’s the panic?"

Xiao Chen smiled, "This is not necessarily bad news for us, it might even turn out to be good.

First, Zhu Entertainment and this director probably don’t know that we have an exclusive contract and they are simply digging their own grave;

Second, our program could use a boost in popularity, let them stir it up and bring the heat, it’s like free advertising for us.

Other impacts can be considered negligible."

Outside, the issue had already caused a stir.

"I knew it, why are Zhu Entertainment and Tianxing Media’s variety programs so identical, turns out Tianxing Media plagiarized!"

"Although Zhu Entertainment’s program is poorly made, plagiarism is absolutely unacceptable!"

The online condemnation was sky-high.

With the South Korean director speaking out, almost everyone believed Tianxing Media had indeed plagiarized from Zhu Entertainment.

Moreover, Tianxing Media had not made any statements to explain.

So their belief was even stronger.

In no time, Tianxing Media had climbed to the top of the trending search list.

And it shot up to number one on the hot search list that very day.

After all, top celebrities like Bai Yuning and Qin Shuo were denouncing it on Weibo.

However, Tianxing Media didn’t care about the online noise at all, Xiao Chen even specially arranged for some Internet Bots to amplify the influence.

The only concern for Tianxing Media’s top executives was that the relevant departments had set up an investigation team to delve into the plagiarism incident.

After all, the issue had become too big to ignore without taking action.

"It’s despicable, I didn’t expect them to actually do this, how much money did that South Korean director take to dare do this!"

Zhang Zhao cursed furiously.

"Is there no justice in this world? It’s clear that we bought the exclusive rights, we haven’t even sued Zhu Entertainment for plagiarism yet, and they are accusing us of it?

This really is a case of the guilty party filing the suit first."

Qiao Wang also stated indignantly.

"It’s Boss’s foresight that changed our strategy here; otherwise, this controversy would have seriously affected our program’s viewership.

Even if things were cleared up in the end, some stubborn viewers might still not be convinced."

Fu Liuan said with a smile.
