Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 424 Cultural Counter-Invasion!
Meanwhile, a group of dazzling anime characters appear in the scene, with a style quite different from "Qin's Moon", but the content is very exciting.

Half a minute later, the captivating video ended, leaving only four flashing blue characters on the screen.

"Second only to one person!"

The screen fell silent for a moment, then a flood of comments appeared.

Wow! This animation is so good!

"Under One Person? I've never heard of it before. The art style is a bit like Japanese anime. Is it a Japanese production?"

"Perhaps so. Only an island nation might have the capability to produce such wonderful 2D animation."

"Don't overlook domestic animation! Look at the currently popular 'Qin's Moon,' is it any worse than Japanese animation?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm talking about 2D animation, not 3D animation! Only a team with the dedication and craftsmanship of an island nation like Japan could create something like this!"

"That's right, there are also excellent creators among the Chinese. Are they capable of this kind of work? If so, I'll eat shit live on air!"

"I agree, the craftsmanship of the island nation is truly admirable!"

"I can't wait! Japan really is the birthplace of 2D animation!"

"..."

Seeing the comments posted by some comic fans, Zhou Yang smiled slightly. He wondered what they would think if they knew that this work was made by Chinese people.

Furthermore, he was looking forward to seeing these people eat feces live on air.

At the same time, Chen Tianzhen called Zhou Yang to report on the day's progress.

"Xiao Yang, the number of newly registered users today has exceeded 68, and the average number of views per episode of 'Qin's Moon: The Hundred Schools of Thought' has exceeded five million!"

Zhou Yang was very satisfied with the result.

680,000 new users—that's a huge and valuable asset. Currently, the cost of acquiring each new user for major video websites is 100 yuan.

That means he saved 6800 million in just one day, which is a huge profit.

It's important to understand that this is only the result in the Chinese market. Due to time zone differences, the video of "Qin's Moon" has not yet been released in Europe and America.

After ending his call with Chen Tianzhen, Zhou Yang called Sterling, the person in charge of overseas distribution of Yang Fei Video.

After the call connected, Zhou Yang immediately gave the order: "Hey, Sterling, put 'Qin's Moon' in the most prominent position, and also put promotional links below other videos. Promote it comprehensively!"

what? !

Sterling was puzzled by the decision and immediately expressed his disagreement: "Boss, please allow me to offer an idea. Western audiences tend to appreciate movies like Iron Man and Titanic, while Qin's Moon might not be as popular. Perhaps we should consider recommending works that suit the tastes of the Western market."

Sterling offered his perspective to Zhou Yang from the standpoint of Europeans and Americans.

"Don't worry, just do as I say." Zhou Yang decisively gave the order.

“Okay, I’ll do as you say.” Sterling reluctantly agreed.

Despite his bewilderment at Zhou Yang's decision, Sterling went along with it. He simply couldn't understand how Chinese animation could succeed in the international market.

Having studied management at Harvard University, he believed, with his keen insight, that it was almost impossible for "Qin's Moon" to succeed in the international market.

In China, after seeing the promotional materials for "Under One Person," fans flocked to Weibo to search for information about the series.

The phrase "Under One Person" quickly rose to the top of Weibo's trending topics list.

However, when netizens clicked on the link, they only saw the promotional video for "Under One Person" that had appeared at the end of "Qin's Moon," and couldn't find any other related information. Zhou Yang sensed the growing popularity and didn't hesitate to reveal the answer on Weibo.

"#Actor Zhou Yang: Thank you all for your love for 'Qin's Moon'! On the day of its premiere, the number of views exceeded 500 million! You must be curious about the ending animation. That is our latest 'Under One Person', which has been completed and will be launched tomorrow night at 8 pm!"

Zhou Yang's Weibo post surprised netizens.

"My God! This is actually a domestically produced animation!"

"And it was produced by Zhou Yang's company! Zhou Yang is truly the pride of Chinese animation!!"

"Judging from the art style, I thought it was a Japanese anime, but I didn't expect it to be a domestic Chinese animation!"

"Haha, some Japanese anime fans even claimed that they made this and wanted to livestream themselves eating shit. Now it seems they really lost, haha."

"Only fools would boast about so-called craftsmanship!"

"I can't wait! This animated film alone has me hooked!"

"..."

The next morning, Zhou Yang was awakened by a series of urgent phone calls.

He groggily reached for his phone and put it to his ear.

"Hi, this is Zhou Yang, what's up?"

"Boss! Something big is happening!" Sterling's excited voice came from the other end of the phone, making Zhou Yang's ears ache.

Before Zhou Yang could ask a question, Sterling rattled off like a machine gun, "Boss, 'Qin's Moon' is a hit! Within eight hours of its release, it's already surpassed 800 million views, and over a million new paying users have registered!!"

Zhou Yang smiled slightly and said calmly, "A million is nothing. The real excitement will come when we break through the 100 million user mark."

"Yes, boss, you're really amazing! How did you figure out that 'Qin's Moon' would be popular in Europe and America?" Sterling asked in confusion.

"It's very simple, because China has a glorious history of five thousand years! Even the thousand-year history of Europe and the two-thousand-year history of Rome are admired by Europeans and Americans, so how could China's five thousand-year history be inferior? It's just that no one was able to create outstanding works in the past..."

After listening to Zhou Yang's analysis, Sterling suddenly understood.

"Boss, you're amazing! I admire you!" Sterling was completely convinced.

Zhou Yang is different from ordinary wealthy people, especially in terms of market foresight, which is even better than that of Harvard management graduates.

After hanging up the call, Zhou Yang opened the official website of Yang Fei's videos abroad and was surprised to find that the comment section of "Qin's Moon" was full of praise!

"Wow, this is simply the most amazing animated work I've ever seen!"

"It's so realistic! It feels like being on an ancient Chinese battlefield. The armor and clothing are even more captivating than those from medieval Europe!"

"I feel the same way. Ancient China is truly amazing!"

"The plot is top-notch; once you start watching the first episode, you can't stop!"

"I thought Yang Fei would recommend some boring animation, but it turned out to be so amazing!"

"The plot, visuals, and characters are all top-notch!"

Zhou Yang gently touched his nose and smiled; perhaps this could be considered a form of cultural counter-invasion.

However, this is just the beginning!
