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

"Wang Defa???"

On the sofa, Mei Jie looked at the popularity of "Squid Game" on Twitter, and her expression suddenly became incredible.

After a long pause, she looked at Bai Xingjian in disbelief and asked:

"What's going on? How did the popularity of Squid Game suddenly become so high in just one night? The increase in popularity is like riding a rocket! It's unbelievable!"

Mei Jie was clearly checking Twitter last night.

At that time, almost all the attention on Twitter was devoted to "Limitless", and the discussion about "Squidward Fever" was pitifully low.

But in less than one night, all of this turned around?
really?
Am I still dreaming?

Thinking of this, Mei Jie reached out and pinched her thigh.

"Hiss! It hurts!" she screamed.

Bai Xingjian looked at Mei Jie with a puzzled look on his face, "What are you doing?"

"Nothing, nothing."

Mei Jie shook her head and said, "Brother Xingjian, you haven't answered my question yet!"

"Oh... then what else could this be? Isn't it because the quality of Squidward Games is very high?"

Bai Xingjian spread his hands. "For movies and TV series, isn't quality king? As long as the quality is high, many people will speak for you."

"It seems to be the same."

Mei Jie nodded in agreement. "But this is still too unbelievable. It's only been one night! Such a short time!"

The more Mei Jie spoke, the brighter her eyes became as she looked at Bai Xingjian.

Bai Xingjian felt a little uneasy when she looked at him.

Then, Mei Jie said, "You are worthy of being Brother Xing Jian! As expected, you are the man who conquered Blue Star!"

After hearing this, Bai Xingjian felt a little embarrassed.

But he still waved his hand and said, "It's a small matter. It's all within my expectations."

Hearing this, Mei Jie nodded heavily, looked at Bai Xingjian admiringly and said:
"It can be seen that Brother Xing Jian was very confident in Squid Game before, and now the facts are indeed true. It's really amazing!"

This compliment made Bai Xingjian smile knowingly, and he said, "I can only say that the current situation is one step closer to my IP paradise. If Squid Game becomes a big hit, I won't have to worry about funding or anything."

Thinking of the revenue that "Squid Game" brought to Netflix on Earth, even Bai Xingjian now feels a little jealous.

But on Blue Planet, the situation is completely different.

A large portion of the revenue generated by "Squid Game" will fall into Bai Xingjian's pocket.

Thinking of this, Bai Xingjian couldn't stop feeling happy.

……

"Fuck!"

Beijing time, 1 p.m.

A scream was heard in a female dormitory of Linjiang Normal University.

Wang Penny, who had just woken up, was wearing a loose sweatshirt, staring with a pair of big eyes, and pushed herself up from the bed.

At this moment, she was holding a mobile phone in her hand, and the content displayed on the phone was exactly what was on Twitter.

Apparently, she already knew about the huge success of Squidward Gaming.

Wang Pei Ni's exclamation naturally alarmed the other three roommates.

"Wang Penny, you have a gold fever!"

Liu Yue, who was woken up, cursed in an extremely unhappy tone.

Yesterday they also watched four episodes of "Squid!". It was almost 4:30 and they couldn't stand it anymore, so they went to bed.

So even though it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, these girls had not slept for many hours.

Moreover, young people nowadays are particularly addicted to sleep. If they don’t sleep for eight or nine hours, it is difficult for them to maintain a good mental state during the day.

Therefore, Liu Yue is now particularly grumpy when she wakes up.

Besides her, Luo Xi did the same. She yelled at Wang Penny, "Wang Penny, are you a cluck? You keep yelling here every day, just like a cluck."

"Stop talking about it. You two are actually not much different from Penny."

Lai Jie rolled her eyes at Liu Yue and Luo Xi, then yawned helplessly and turned over in bed.

Since I've been woken up, I might as well get up and watch "Squidward".

With such thoughts in mind, Lai Jie had obviously forgotten the reason why Wang Penny exclaimed so early in the morning.

But Liu Yue and Luo Xi didn't forget.

"Penny, what are you yelling about so early in the morning?"

The grumpiness after waking up went away quickly, Liu Yue asked Wang Penny very gently.

Rossi looked over with the same curiosity.

Wang Penny smiled and said, "I won't say much. Just go to Twitter and take a look. Just don't get scared."

“Twitter?”

Liu Yue asked tentatively, "Has the popularity of "Squid Game" on Twitter begun to increase explosively?"

"That's probably the case." Rossi nodded in agreement.

"Oh my God!"

Lai Jie exclaimed at this time, obviously having seen the scene on Twitter, "Really! The popularity of "Squid Game" on Twitter is simply overwhelming!"

After hearing Lai Jie say this, Liu Yue and Luo Xi finally became uneasy.

They picked up their phones and opened Twitter.

then……

"Wang Defa???"

"Holy crap! Is Squidward Game so popular? Is this going to be a miracle?"

After seeing the exact content, Liu Yue and Luo Xi were dumbfounded.

The number of tweets related to the topic #SquidGame# has skyrocketed from tens of thousands last night to millions, and the number of views has exceeded 100 million.

How long has it been? Less than twelve hours?
"Sure enough, Bai Xingjian's filming of "Squid Game" does have some meaning."

Liu Yue took a few breaths, smacked her lips and said, "It's not just Bai Xingjian who has an opinion, Squid Game also has an opinion."

"That's a really great statement!"

Rossi exclaimed: "Moreover, the discussions on Twitter about Squidward and Bai Xingjian are almost all positive. This was simply a fantasy before Squidward was broadcast!"

Rossi clicked on the real-time tweets in the topic #SquidGame#.

The tweets posted by many netizens at this moment are almost all praising "Squid Game" and Bai Xingjian.

[In the most despicable adult world, playing the most innocent children's games, the contrast is full! 】

[I watched it all in one night! Thanks to Bai Xingjian for saving my boring night! ] [It's hard to imagine that this is a film made by a Chinese, and it borrows from the culture of Coria, and it can even make people unable to stop watching it. Is the world so dramatic now? ]

[This drama is like an infinite survival game. In addition to the most superficial excitement and blood, there are also many ironic innuendos. It is very refreshing and fun to watch. But on second thought, it is terrifying to think about it carefully. The people behind the scenes designed this game to observe secretly. Aren’t we outside the screen also watching this bloody killing game and falling into an unknown carnival? Then who is observing us? ]

【Isn’t life a kind of “Squid Game”? 】

[How many years will it take for this awesome series to have a second season? 】

[It has games and humanity, the plot is smooth, the progression is reasonable, the details are exquisite, the production is also very good, the characters' IQ levels are online and stable, and the actors' acting skills are also good. This drama is invincible! ]

……

"The topic of Squidward Fever on Twitter has exploded so much, so the performance on Netflix is ​​probably also extremely optimistic, right?"

After appreciating the international netizens' rave reviews of "Squid Game", Wang Penny asked excitedly.

“That must have been very explosive.”

Liu Yue smiled and nodded, and said with certainty: "If so many netizens had not watched Squidward Gone Wild on Netflix, it would be difficult to form such a large-scale discussion on Twitter. So, the performance of Squidward Gone Wild on Netflix is ​​probably incredible."

“It’s really against the will of heaven.”

Lai Jie's voice sounded faintly: "Squid Game has topped the [Today's Hot List] on Netflix, and the second is Japan's Never Ending."

"Squidward Gaming" is now No. 1 in the US charts? It seems like this drama is really going to take off."

Liu Yue exclaimed, “Wow!”

Because the ladder they used was a node in America, the [Today's Popular Ranking] they saw on Netflix was naturally a list for the America region.

The content of the [Today's Popular Ranking] list is the ten most popular TV series watched by audiences in this country on a single day.

Although there are only ten parts, they are all the best and are updated every day.

Of course, in addition to each country’s own rankings, Netflix also has a global ranking, referred to as the global top 10.

This list is the top priority for Netflix, the international streaming giant.

The chart is updated every Tuesday, reflecting viewing data from the previous week (Monday to Sunday).

The content of this list is very valuable because it is a ranking of the total number of hours Netflix users around the world watched TV series in the previous week.

Of course, there is no trace of "Squidward Gone Wild" in Netflix's global top 10 at the moment. After all, "Squidward Gone Wild" was only released this week, and it would have to pass this week to be included in the ranking.

"Except for America, Squidward has already ranked first in the [Today's Hot List] in countries such as China, Corea, Singapore, Canada, and the United Kingdom."

Lai Jie tirelessly changes the nodes on her mobile phone, and then goes to Netflix to refresh the rankings in various regions.

Then I found that "Squid Game" almost always occupied the top spot on the list, which meant it really took off.

"As expected of Bai Xingjian, and worthy of being called Squid Game!"

Wang Pei Ni gave Bai Xingjian and Squid Game a thumbs up with both hands, and said with interest:
"I just want to see what attitude domestic netizens have towards Bai Xingjian and Squid Game. It might be very interesting!"

"Speaking of which, are the hot searches on Weibo still all about "Spiritual Lord"?"

Liu Yue blinked her eyes, her tone quite teasing.

……

Time goes back twelve hours.

That is 4 a.m. on April 1st.

At this time, an hour had passed since "Squidward Furious" was released on Netflix.

The official account of "Squid Game" posted a Weibo at this time.

The content is very simple. The general meaning is that the related peripherals of "Squid Game" have been launched on major domestic e-commerce platforms, and users who like it can choose to purchase it freely.

Considering the reputation of Bai Xingjian and "Squid Game" in China recently, it was natural that this Weibo post was criticized, and it was criticized harshly.

[“Squid Game” can’t even be broadcast online in China, how dare you sell peripherals? Are you really crazy about making money? ]

【Making money is not shameful. 】

[Since it's not shabby, then kneel down and make money. Bai Xingjian, kneel down first, and I'll spend some money on you.]

[You really made me laugh. How strong is Bai Xingjian to need your little tricks? ]

[It is indeed easier to get things done over the Internet. As long as there is a keyboard, you can say anything. ]

[Since Bai Xingjian doesn't need my little help, why did he launch the peripheral products of "Squid Game"? Isn't it just to make money from fans? ]

[That's right! Originally, "Squid Game" could not be released in China, but Bai Xingjian still wanted to sell peripheral products to make money. Domestic audiences are only worthy of being his tool to make money. They are not even worthy of watching "Squid Game"? Bai Xingjian's face is so disgusting! ]

[Okay, okay, okay, if that's the case, then why don't everyone buy the peripherals of "Squid Game"? Whoever snatches it from me later will be a dog! ]

[Go flatter your master's stinky feet. I would despise this kind of money-making stuff even if it was given to me for free! ]

The comment section of this Weibo post was filled with sharp verbal attacks.

When it was 1:30 in the morning, the official peripheral products of "Squid Game" were officially launched on major domestic e-commerce platforms.

The large variety of products dazzled many fans who came to buy.

For example, there are classic T-shirts with the "Squidward Games" logo printed on them.

For example, “Squid Game” in Chinese or “” in Korean and “Squid Game” in English.

In addition to the logo, there are naturally character number models, such as 456, 001, 067, etc.

Of course, buyers can also customize their own numbers.

The price of the sweatshirt starts at 199 yuan.

In addition to T-shirts and hoodies, there are also jackets.

After seeing the prices of these peripheral products, the fans who came to watch the show after hearing the news felt a lot calmer.

The main reason is that the price is really expensive. (End of this chapter)
