The group was kicked out, and low presence means they are bad?

"It's midnight! It's midnight! Penny, refresh!"

"Don't be so excited. Netflix's servers should still be reliable."

When the time came to midnight.

Even without the urging from her roommate, Wang Pei Ni began to frantically refresh the details page of "Squidward Fever" on Netflix.

"It's out!" Wang Penny screamed.

Without refreshing too many times, the logos of episodes 1 to 9 appeared on the details page of "Squid Game".

“There are only nine episodes?”

Liu Yue widened her eyes, obviously a little surprised by the number of episodes this Xi Shao had.

"So few? Even if it's an authentic Korean drama, there are more than nine episodes, right?"

Rossi blinked. "How can nine episodes be enough to watch?"

"Yeah." Lai Jie nodded, with a hint of regret in her tone.

"Hey, don't worry about it. Nine episodes is nine episodes. Nine episodes will make it easier for us to finish watching the whole show!"

Wang Pei Ni is an optimist and has no concerns about this at all. "As long as it looks good, it's all that matters!"

After giving herself a pep talk, Wang Pei Ni clicked on the first episode of "Squid Game" and adjusted the picture quality to 4K+HDR.

Even though no real scene had appeared yet, the sudden change in the quality of the Netflix logo animation surprised Wang Penny and the other girls.

“I can only say that it is worthy of Netflix’s 4K. This is the real 4K!”

"Compared with this, the 4K videos on domestic video platforms pale in comparison."

"It's worth the 175 yuan that our little Jiejie spent!"

Wang Penny, Liu Yue and Luo Xi expressed their feelings.

“Wow, this episode is actually 59 minutes long, not bad!”

Wang Penny, who had nothing to do, glanced at the progress bar and became excited again.

Although nine episodes is a bit short, each episode is nearly an hour long, which is also very good.

"Compared to some domestic animations, this number of minutes is enough to last for four or five episodes."

Rossi couldn't help but make fun of some domestic anime.

But before he could finish his words, Netflix's iconic voice came from the speakers.

Thumb thump——

This sound actually comes from the end of the second season of Netflix's hit "House of Cards". After the protagonist played by Kevin Spacey was elected president, he knocked the ring on the table, foreshadowing that a good show is about to begin.

It can be said that without the series "House of Cards", there would be no Netflix today.

Therefore, the show "House of Cards" is of great significance to Netflix.

Kevin Spacey also has a very special meaning to Netflix.

However, due to the negative news about Kevin Spacey, Netflix used the sound engineer's remarks to blur the highly iconic sound of Netflix's opening in order to reduce the influence of the actor Kevin Spacey on Netflix.

Surprisingly, Netflix has successfully blurred this concept.

So much so that many people now think that the "thump thump" sound in the opening credits of Netflix dramas is a sound effect created by a sound engineer.

Of course, the plucking sound of the double bass following the "thump thump" sound of knocking on the table was indeed made by the sound engineer.

After Netflix's iconic sound effect appeared, Wang Pei Ni and others quieted down and said nothing more. Everyone focused on watching the show.

dong dong dong-

dong dong dong-

A rhythmic background music sounded and the camera pointed to a child tying his shoelaces.

The Korean dialogue that followed began to introduce the rules of the "Squid Game", a children's game.

"Hmm? This is similar to the game we played when we were kids!"

Liu Yue blinked her eyes, with a look of aftertaste on her face.

"Hahaha, these kids are quite funny." Wang Penny laughed out loud.

"Will die? You emphasize the word 'will die' so much, is it because people will really die in the upcoming squid game?" Rossi said with interest.

"Haha, that should be the case." Lai Jie nodded with a smile.

After watching the trailer, they naturally know that the drama "Squid Game" is not that simple.

"Wow, the classic logo of Squid! appears!" Wang Penny exclaimed.

The recitation ended, and the pattern of "Squid Game" appeared in the black and white screen.

Then, through a series of silky animations, it turned into the Korean name of the drama "Squid Game".

Looking at the familiar logo, Liu Yue sighed: "This opening is really well shot, it has the texture of a movie. What a pity, it would be better if it was in Chinese."

"Regret is beauty." Lai Jie's mentality has begun to calm down.

She is currently very satisfied with the beginning of "Squid Game".

【Episode 1】

[One, two, three, wooden man]

The episode introduction appeared on the 4K display.

Then, the feature film begins.

The first episode of Squidward Gaming has a very good pace.

As soon as the camera appears, it focuses on the protagonist and introduces the protagonist through relevant plots.

Lee Jung-jae plays Sung Ki-hoon, a middle-aged man living a down-and-out life. He is unemployed, heavily in debt, and has a strained relationship with his mother and daughter.

However, he was addicted to gambling and tried to change his fate through gambling, but he failed again and again.

"Damn it, he feels sorry for his old mother, but he doesn't go out to find a job to make money. This guy makes me sick!" Wang Peini couldn't help but complain.

"You're using your mother's bank card to withdraw money? What is Cheng Qixun trying to do?"

Liu Yue, with her arms crossed, raised her eyebrows.

Then the scene changed and appeared at the horse racing scene.

"Turns out he's a gambler. It seems like he's totally hopeless." Liu Yue sneered, her face full of disgust for Cheng Qixun's character.

"He's a bad person with a bad temper..."

Luo Xi was speechless about Cheng Qixun's performance in the play, "It turns out that there must be something hateful about pitiful people."

"Gamblers must die!" Wang Pei Ni also echoed viciously.

……

"Um????"

"Did this guy really win the bet?"

"Oh my god, he is indeed the protagonist!"

"Damn, it turns out they used their daughter's birthday as their lucky number..."

"He's so hopeless that he's willing to gamble on his daughter's birthday."

Wang Penny and several girls complained along with the plot.

There were so many flaws in Cheng Qixun's character at the beginning that it was impossible not to complain about him.

"456 million Korean won? That's more than yuan. This money really comes in quickly." Rossi sighed.

"456? Why does this number sound so familiar?" Liu Yue tilted her head, a little confused.

The girls didn't think too much about this number, because the next second, they started complaining about Sung Ki-hoon again.

"You have a daughter but you still gamble. You are such a scumbag!"

"Eh? Isn't this Shu Yaqian from Galaxy Girls? She's also here to star in Squidward Games?"

"??? He actually played a thief? He stole all the 20,000 yuan that Cheng Qixun just won?"

"Brother Xingjian, this is really full of private goods!"

"Hahaha, good steal! This is how you should treat a scumbag like Sung Ki-hoon!"

"Well, I feel that he is still quite pitiful."

"poor person must have something mean!"

……

"That's amazing. It turns out that the tips you give out can be taken back."

"You are truly worthy of being called Sung Ki-hoon!"

"The waitress was shocked!"

"666 is indeed a gambler. He actually used the money to catch dolls again!"

"I really want to get into the screen and slap him a few times!"

……

"Fortunately, his daughter has a stepfather who can take her to eat steak, otherwise I can't imagine how miserable this little girl's childhood must have been." "His daughter is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed."

"It seems that Cheng Qixun is quite good to his daughter."

“Junk food…hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter.”

"I'm speechless. The birthday gift for my daughter is actually a replica pistol... Is this a human being?"

"???? Lighter pistol?"

“This guy is absolutely amazing!”

……

On the way back from sending his daughter, Cheng Qixun missed the subway because it was too late.

So I could only sit on the long bench in the waiting area for a while.

Then, a mysterious man in a suit and carrying a black briefcase appeared.

When the mysterious man appears in front of the camera.

Wang Penny, Liu Yue, Lai Jie and Luo Xi suddenly burst into screams one after another.

The reason is simple: the role of the mysterious man was played by Bai Xingjian himself.

“Ahhh! It’s Bai Xingjian!”

"Surprise! Is this the legendary surprise?!"

"Oh my god! Isn't Bai Xingjian so handsome in this suit?"

"He actually starred in this drama himself... I'm afraid the public opinion will explode tomorrow!"

"This is a bit of an evil expression. It's obvious that Bai Xingjian is not playing a good guy!"

"He speaks Korean...quite fluently."

The scene progresses, and the mysterious man played by Bai Xingjian starts communicating with Cheng Qixun.

As a result, Cheng Qixun pulled out a gun without saying a word, which scared Bai Xingjian so much that he couldn't control his hands and raised them up.

Just when Bai Xingjian was confused, a gunshot rang out.

What came out was not a bullet, but a small flame.

That’s right, the gun in Cheng Qixun’s hand was the lighter imitation gun that had not been given away.

“Hahahaha, now I only see the two words [Speechless] on Bai Xingjian’s face.”

"No one can do anything to a jerk like Cheng Qixun."

"It's so annoying!"

Wang Penny, Liu Yue and Luo Xi complained.

But the next second, they screamed again.

The reason was simple: Bai Xingjian on the screen opened his suitcase.

Then, what appeared inside were the props for the game "Picture Cards" and stacks of Korean won.

The girls like Wang Penny in front of the screen suddenly became familiar.

“It turns out that the game of playing picture cards is used here!”

"One hundred thousand won for every win. This reward seems to be similar to the previous promotional activities?"

"interesting."

"Ahhh, Bai Xingjian is so handsome! I want to lick the screen!"

"Penny, there are so many people watching us, don't get a fever!"

……

The sound of "pa pa pa" was heard.

On the screen, the mysterious man played by Bai Xingjian and Cheng Qixun were playing cards.

As a result, Cheng Qixun, who attacked first, did not knock over the picture card, but Bai Xingjian, who attacked next, knocked over the picture card that Cheng Qixun had hit.

Because Cheng Qixun did not have 100,000 won on him, Bai Xingjian asked Cheng Qixun to use his body instead.

Ever since.

A rather strange scene appeared in the subway station.

"Clap clap-"

The sound of playing cards was mixed with the loud sound of Bai Xingjian slapping Cheng Qixun in the face.

This made Wang Penny and other girls in front of the screen excited.

"So handsome! Brother Xingjian!"

"Gamblers like Cheng Qixun should be punished!"

"One slap is worth 100,000 won. I would do that too!"

"Hahaha, money doesn't matter. I just want Bei Baixing's fan."

"No, Penny, you're not pretending at all now, are you?"

"Is there anything to pretend about this? It would be even better if it was a spanking!"

"Ahhh Wang Penny, you are such a slut!"

……

The girls, Wang Penny, Liu Yue and Luo Xi, were discussing enthusiastically.

And in some online chat rooms far away in Coria.

At this moment, many netizens were furious.

[No, Bai Xingjian slapped our Lee Jung Jae like this? ]

[Why is he a Chinese? 】

[No, Lee Jung Jae agrees, Bai Xingjian agrees, but you netizens disagree? ]

[Just slap him, Lee Jung Jae in the drama really deserves a slap! ]

[This Li Zhengzai is such a wimp! Bai Xingjian really can't even give money away if he wants to. ]

[That's true! Sung Ki-hoon is really bad! ]

【Ahhh! This “fight scene” is so exciting to watch! 】

[Why didn't Bai Xingjian appear in the promotional activities for "Squid Game"? If he wore this suit and played cards with us, the show would definitely be a big hit! ]

[Looks good! Looks great! Bai Xingjian is indeed very capable. 】

[Indeed, and he is so handsome, it is simply hard to resist his charm! ]

The atmosphere in the chat room had become a little unpleasant because Bai Xingjian slapped Li Zhengzai.

But as everyone discussed, the atmosphere turned for the better.

After all, whether to slap or not is a matter between Bai Xingjian and Li Zhengzai. As the audience, they just need to enjoy watching it!

And judging from the current plot of "Squid Game", they are indeed enjoying it.

……

"Cheng Qixun finally won once, it really made me tired to watch it." Wang Pei Ni complained in front of the screen.

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes widened: "No, he actually wanted to slap Bai Xingjian?"

"It's normal. After being slapped so many times by Bai Xingjian, any man would want to slap back."

Liu Yue said with interest.

However, Cheng Qixun did not actually slap Bai Xingjian, but Bai Xingjian grabbed his hand that was about to slap him.

Cheng Qixun roared: "Don't let me go, you bastard!"

Bai Xingjian smiled and took out 100,000 won from his trouser pocket and showed it to Cheng Qixun:
“Here’s 100,000 won.”

Then, when Cheng Qixun hesitated, he stuffed the 100,000 won into his hand and said, "Congratulations!"

After getting the money, Cheng Qixun's emotions completely stabilized.

"I got... 100,000 won?" he said in disbelief.

The subway flashed by on the screen.

When Bai Xingjian and Cheng Qixun appeared again, Cheng Qixun was already sitting on the bench and started counting money.

Judging from the 50,000-won bills one after another, Cheng Qixun had a good harvest tonight.

The mysterious man played by Bai Xingjian continues to tempt Cheng Qixun to participate in a bigger game and make more money.

What surprised the audience in front of the screen was that Cheng Qixun actually refused.

Then, Bai Xingjian used the "box weapon" and began to read out Cheng Qixun's personal and family details in front of him.

Cheng Qixun was stunned. (End of this chapter)
