What changes is the fans' wavering hearts, but what remains unchanged is the terrifying ratings of "The Prince of Tennis".
As the plot of the animation gets better and better, even the most competitive fans are too lazy to argue with the online trolls and the passers-by who don't know right from wrong. Idiots and online trolls are not compatible. What's more, if you have time to argue with idiots, why not use it to watch the animation? You can also use the remaining time to write fan fiction, have surgery, etc., wouldn't that be great
So when passers-by once again saw the topic of "The Prince of Tennis" misleading the audience on Weibo, they unexpectedly discovered that the style of the fans who had been trying to explain to others had changed again:
—"Please be human and leave the tennis world alone."
Huaying fans: Please don't refer to the company's behavior as fans. You can scold Huaying, but you can't scold us.
— "I spent a lot of time on Weibo, but I found that there are not many people speaking up for this rubbish company. Haha, the previous popularity was probably inflated by the Internet trolls, right?"
Huaying fans: We can’t help it. We are as vulgar as Huaying’s works. We just want to support our favorite animation with superficial money╮(╯╰)╭
— “I’m so sick of it. Capital is really unscrupulous, right? Huaying is awesome. They can still get the ratings to the top with this. I admire you.”
Huaying fans: Huaying Animation, you are already a mature company, you should learn to get rid of your dependence on your father and do your own public relations. [Words of deep concern.jpg]
What's wrong with the fans of this artist? Weren't we still fighting with them a while ago? Why did they suddenly become so stupid
The passers-by haters were dumbfounded, and the fans of Huaying stopped paying attention to the various topics that the haters were trying to provoke. They dispersed immediately, and some watched the anime, some wrote fan fiction, and some wrote handwriting. For a while, the more lively the Huaying fans were, the more embarrassed the water army and passers-by haters were.
They would really like to stand on the moral high ground and continue to engage in trash talk with Huaying fans, but the problem is that Huaying fans simply ignore them!
Seeing that all of Huaying's fans had the same reaction, even the passers-by and black fans who were led by the rhythm now felt that something was wrong.
Nothing else.
In this farce that has lasted for nearly a month, both the Huaying Animation Company and Huaying's fans have acted too calmly.
That's fine.
However, despite all their noise, they were unable to cause any substantial impact on Huaying Animation from beginning to end. It was like a punch on cotton. Not only did it have no effect on the enemy, but it made themselves very depressed.
Looking at his cheerful and cheerful chat on Weibo, he doesn't seem angry even in the face of everyone's sarcasm. Instead, he happily makes all kinds of jokes and sarcasm in the comment section. No matter how you look at him, he is such a stupid fan of Huaying. Any passerby who hates him with a little bit of brains would inevitably be shaken at this moment.
As the saying goes, fans pay the price for their behavior.
Although Huaying is not an idol, it is undeniable that for people who did not know Huaying before, the behavior of Huaying fans will undoubtedly directly affect their impression of Huaying animation.
If Huaying's fans really started to criticize them, they might not have considered this issue. But seeing that Huaying's fans were becoming more and more stupid, even the black fans who wanted to find fault were speechless at the moment.
Just when some passers-by haters began to doubt their own judgment, another post complaining about "The Prince of Tennis" appeared on the largest comprehensive animation forum on Blue Planet -
Title: After looking at the ratings ranking of a certain channel, I feel a little disappointed.
Content: I think I may really not understand the aesthetic taste of today’s audiences.
Why do many animation companies' sincere works always fail silently, while some companies ignore the real situation of the industry and tinker with money-making animations, and they can easily become the number one in ratings? How can such an animation with such scandals still be followed by a group of people with real feelings
Is it that the times are changing too fast, or am I too conservative and backward in my thinking
1st floor: Finally someone has spoken up and said something fair. I feel so confused when I look at the ratings ranking of a certain TV station. It’s so confusing. What on earth are the audiences thinking about now? As long as it’s good to watch, it’s fine.
2nd floor: To be honest, this year's audience is really not that good.
…
Looking at the post in front of him, Lu Qing's expression became a little subtle.
As a half-passerby hater of Huaying Animation, he naturally had no good feelings towards the company because of "The Prince of Tennis". Now he clicked on the post with the intention of seeing the joke, but...
As if to confirm something, Lu Qing dragged the mouse upwards and his eyes fell on the OP's ID again. When he found that he was not mistaken, he felt very confused.
Qiming Animation Studio? And they added v's official account
Lu Qing felt that anyone with a brain would not do such a stupid thing as using the company’s official account to diss other companies in the industry, so this Qiming Animation was... Actually, it was planning to use a small account to lead the trend, but accidentally used the wrong account
With this guess in mind, he looked up at the first and second floors and saw that they echoed the original poster's words, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Even he, who is always slow to react, now noticed that there was something wrong with the OP's ID. Not only did the two posters before him not notice this at all, but even the time of their replies was quite close to the time the OP posted, as if they had already thought about what to say in advance.
Without thinking twice, Lu Qing took a screenshot of the entire thread. When he refreshed the page again, the words "The post you are viewing does not exist" popped up on the computer screen as expected.
Things have developed to this point. No matter how big a prejudice Lu Qing has against Huaying, he should now understand what all the bloody events of this period have been about.
I thought it was Huaying Animation's own wrongdoings that caused the anger of netizens, but could it be that it was the internet trolls deliberately arranged by its peers to lead the trend
If the guy behind this account hadn't accidentally switched to the wrong number, they would probably have been kept in the dark.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He stopped wasting time and started a new thread, in which he gave a detailed summary and analysis of the entire incident, and attached screenshots at the end as evidence.
As the largest comprehensive forum on Blue Star, the forum itself has a lot of traffic. In fact, it was not just Lu Qing. Although Qiming Animation reacted quickly and deleted the mistaken post immediately, there were still a few netizens who saw the specific content and took screenshots to save it.
In just a short while, this screenshot spread across various social networking platforms.
"Grass… "
“Although I have always known that there is capital behind this, I never thought that Qiming Animation would be so stupid… Which internet trolls did they hire? And they even brought the wrong ID? I am laughing so hard.”
"Is no one paying attention to the replies on the first and second floor in the screenshot? They even said something like 'this audience is not very good', which made me laugh to death. I don't know whether this audience is good or not, but it's true that you, the Internet trolls, are idiots."
…
Fans of Huaying are naturally happy to hear this, and some neutral passers-by are also happy to mock the idiotic behavior of the water army, but the black fans are not in a very good mood.
Although some of the black fans who were led by the rhythm also knew the truth, things have come to this point. Although they are unhappy about being used as a knife by the capital, they naturally have no good feelings towards Huaying due to their inner embarrassment. Only a very small number of people chose to take responsibility for their own actions and went to Huaying Animation's Weibo to apologize.
Lu Qing is one of them.
He thought that seeing that he took the initiative to apologize to Huaying Animation, those fans who had previously "fought" with him should have ridiculed him. But the fact was just the opposite. Except for a very few people who kept holding on to the previous incident, more Huaying fans responded:
"Friend, have you heard of The Prince of Tennis?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as you also do the splits on the wall of Prince of Tennis, then we are good friends.jpg"
… Although I can understand the desire of Huaying fans to recommend the product, why does this feel like a pyramid scheme
Complaints aside, seeing that the fans of Huaying were quite open-minded, many of them were attracted purely by the gossip. Even passers-by who didn't watch the anime originally became interested in what the fans were talking about: "The Prince of Tennis".
The online version of "The Prince of Tennis" was launched on Yueqi Video at this time.
With the popularity accumulated by Xingning TV Station, the score of "Prince of Tennis" as soon as it was released on Yueqi Video was as high as 9.3 points!
"nice!"
"To be honest, I personally don't have any feelings about tennis. I watched it purely for the pictures and pictures at the beginning, and I was not disappointed. The animation is very good, and it doesn't matter if you don't understand tennis. Every character in it is super good. I hope everyone will not be affected by what happened some time ago, and follow the show in a peaceful and friendly manner~"
"I will never tell you that this anime is actually super good! It's because I told the truth to my friends, and now they are trying to steal my husband :)"
…
At this point, the last layer of haze covering "The Prince of Tennis" since its launch has finally dissipated.
Seeing that netizens' evaluation of "The Prince of Tennis" had skyrocketed, the employees of Huaying breathed a sigh of relief. While they admired Mu Suxing more and more, they also urged to hold a celebration banquet at the headquarters.
Muxuxing said, "Wait a little longer, it's not time to celebrate yet."
In the minds of the Huaying employees, Mu Suxing was already almost like a charlatan, so as soon as he finished speaking, everyone who had been happy suddenly became nervous again.
"Isn't there solid evidence that Qiming Animation Studio hired cyber troops?" Fang Lian frowned. "Are they going to continue to cause trouble?"
Noticing everyone's slightly nervous expressions, Mu Suxing couldn't help but laugh: "What are you thinking?" He was in a good mood at the moment, and seeing everyone's puzzled and worried expressions, he simply explained: "Just think of it as "The Prince of Tennis" not being successful enough to hold a celebration party."
"Then how long do we have to wait?" Fang Lian asked.
"Well..." Mu Suxing looked at the silent phone beside the desk and smiled, "Of course, I have to wait until the fish is hooked."
