Chapter 141: The Crazy Rabbit

After the first episode of *King of Love Songs* aired, it exploded.

All the metrics were very high; the early investment in promotion and the luxurious lineup that even brought in a Heavenly King and a Top Traffic star were not in vain.

Most importantly, the level of buzz was too high.

After Ding Xiaoyu finished posting on Weibo, she went online to look at the heated discussions among netizens; there really was everything being said.

Of course, the main focus was still on the personal feud between Luo Mo and Heavenly King Zhao.

"Aha! Heavenly King Zhao has finally won for once!"

"Tsk, he's already lost the chart battle twice, how is he embarrassed to say someone else's song is bad?"

"Heh, how many years has the Heavenly King been in the industry? He has so many classic works! Can't he even evaluate a Luo Mo? It really makes me laugh to death!"

"In the battle between the new and the old, one must be hurt!"

"Why are you arguing? This is only the first episode, it's just a warm-up match, no one is being eliminated. Luo Mo's song is clearly a tribute to the galaxy of lights the fans created back then; we'll see the real results later!"

"Hahahaha, competing on the same stage is one thing, but having a showdown with albums off-stage too is too exciting, too exciting!"

It must be said that Zhao Xueqin's original intention had at least been achieved.

His seemingly lighthearted evaluation of Luo Mo was indeed like a giant boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves.

Whether lyrics are good or bad is quite intuitive. As for the music, everyone doesn't understand it and will only feel whether it sounds good or not.

But these days, there are too many vapid pop songs. They sound okay, but they are actually very low-level.

Therefore, many netizens don't have their own judgment; although they might feel the music is not bad, after Heavenly King Zhao's evaluation, they suddenly realized: "Oh—so it's very low-level!"

Then, many so-called 【Advanced Pretender Party】 members appeared.

The internet is flooded with a large number of people who clearly don't understand anything but just pretend, just want to show off their own style, and just want to criticize everything from a high-and-mighty stance.

Heavenly King Zhao's words directly allowed this group of people to enter the fray and start mocking.

For a time, the sentiment that "Luo Mo's composition is mediocre" became rampant.

Arguments began to arise, and this also triggered a bunch of so-called 【Rational Neutral Objective】 people; they actually don't understand anything either, they just want to strike a pose higher than the two groups of arguing netizens, and start analyzing things as if they were reasonable and well-founded.

"Oh my, what Luo Mo is good at is Chinese classical Yueqi; he's not bad, he's just not good at this type of song. Everyone stop arguing, what is there to argue about? Wouldn't it be better to analyze it rationally?"

Under the immense heat, Luo Mo and Zhao Xueqin frequently appeared on the Hot Search.

At least half of the show's buzz revolved around them.

But regardless, it did make this variety show even more popular.

Luo Mo, who was at the center of public opinion, had an indifferent attitude toward this.

This was only the first episode; the curtain had only just been raised.

Anyway, as a master, he still found his cheap apprentice's praise quite gratifying.

He logged into his Weibo and replied to Ding Xiaoyu's post with a head-patting emoji.

………

The next day, in the various fan groups of Mo Sheng Ren, everyone was still discussing the matter of *King of Love Songs*.

Suddenly, a female fan spoke up: "Have you noticed that the song *Chasing Dreams Red Heart* has changed?"

"Ah? What changed?"

"When I was playing Luo Mo's playlist just now, I noticed that when it got to this song, there was a suffix next to the song title—*That Year Those Rabbits* ending theme."

Soon, fans went to search for it and then threw the screenshot into the group.

For a moment, a crowd of Mo Sheng Ren were completely confused.

"*That Year Those Rabbits*, what is this thing?"

"Eh!? Did Luo Mo go behind our fans' backs again and quietly do something big?"

"It shouldn't be that serious; maybe the copyright for this song was just sold and he earned some money."

"The name looks really lame, it doesn't pique my interest at all, and I don't know what it's about."

"Yeah, it looks weird, zero appeal +1!"

Indeed, judging by the name, *That Rabbit* certainly carried a strong scent of a flop...

However, this did not affect the curiosity of the Mo Sheng Ren.

They felt that, first of all, they had to figure out what *That Rabbit* actually was. Is it a drama, a movie, or an Animation?

Then in the afternoon, the promotion for *That Rabbit* finally began.

The promotional work for this Animation had a rather belated feeling.

This was a tacit understanding reached by multiple parties; everyone had deeper considerations, which is why they chose this conventional promotional model.

But regardless, Luo Mo's studio, as well as He Yuanguang's studio, and the official Weibo accounts of the Children's Channel and Tencent Video, were definitely going to carry out the most basic promotion.

When the Poster for *That Rabbit* appeared in everyone's view, many people were stunned.

"A rabbit? It really is an Animation with a rabbit as the protagonist?"

"Hey, it's actually kind of cute!"

"Am I the only one who noticed the script is by Luo Mo?"

"More than that, Ding Xiaoyu even did the voice acting!"

"Wow, I'm really speechless; you guy, instead of focusing on writing songs and doing your job, you actually went to make an Animation!?"

"Yeah, you've only been debuted for a few days, and you're already crossing over?"

"Ah? Then aren't you curious? Aren't you going to watch it?"

"Well, I'm still going to watch it, hahahaha!"

Netizens were still discussing the feud between Luo Mo and Zhao Xueqin yesterday, and as a result, he had an Animation airing today.

Let alone the netizens, even the music industry was stunned.

What is this, has he gone to occupy the Children's Channel market?

Even if you, Luo Mo, want to increase your National Popularity and let more people of different age groups know you, I have never seen anyone play with such a flashy model!

A perfectly good Lyricist, why write a script for a children's animation, and it seems he even invested in it?

As for some people in the industry, especially those who are jealous of Luo Mo, they were finally happy.

Many people have always held the idea: "Watch them build a high building, watch them feast their guests, watch the building collapse."

But they watched and watched, only to see Luo Mo building the building higher and higher, with more and more guests, but there was simply no sign of it collapsing.

Now it's fine, a Newcomer, sitting on an S-level contract, having his own personal studio, the disadvantages of having extremely high autonomy have manifested.

He can do whatever he wants, the company cannot restrain him, isn't he just starting to mess around blindly?

After all, he is still young and can be said to not know how to plan his own career.

"You are already a Top Traffic, yet you actually go to engage in the depressed animation industry, your perspective is too narrow!"

Although the animation industry has shown signs of rising in recent years, it is only developing steadily.

What's more, looking at the art style and the name, it is clearly not aimed at adults.

"The path has narrowed!"

Many people in the music industry even feel that Luo Mo is debasing himself.

Young people, as expected, still need more discipline; only when he lives to our age will he know that career planning is very important, and human energy is also limited; one should not just have a hot head and do whatever comes to mind.

But I have to say, the traffic-driving power of a Top Traffic is still terrifying.

Although everyone's opinions on the internet are different, "That Year Those Rabbits" received immense attention in just one day.

There are few precedents in the country where such a low-budget animation caused such a sensation before it even aired.

When it reached seven o'clock sharp in the evening, the Children's Channel began to broadcast "That Rabbit".

Penguin Video also began to upload the first two episodes of "That Rabbit".

The duration of each episode of this animation is really too short; when two episodes are added together, and a very long advertisement is inserted after each episode ends, the total duration is only about the same as one episode of other animations.

From the perspective of the Children's Channel, this is actually quite good.

After broadcasting the first episode, they can earn a generous advertising fee. This was cobbled together temporarily; after all, they had never encountered such a short animation before.

At the same time, the long advertisements can also allow the parents who are watching along to calm their emotions; after their emotions stabilize, they can continue to watch the second episode, and then...

They just can't calm down again!

A very strange phenomenon was produced in thousands of households tonight.

At first, no one thought that an animation with such a name and such an art style would have such infectious power and such an effect.

Many children asked their parents: "Dad/Mom, why are you crying?"

At eight-thirty in the evening, Luo Mo's fan who has not appeared for a long time, the wealthy woman Xiao Fang who loves to wear a JK Uniform, returned home.

As soon as she returned home, she couldn't wait to watch "That Year Those Rabbits".

Tonight, she was forced to go out on a blind date, which delayed her time.

She wants to date freely, but her family always arranges people who seem to be a good match for her, and then the other party is also obviously forced to come to the blind date, so the dinner will be very awkward.

After returning to her room, Xiao Fang turned on her computer and then opened Penguin Video.

Honestly, she also feels that Luo Mo going to engage in animation is somewhat neglecting his proper work.

Among fans, there often appear Career Fans, who are extremely worried about the personal career issues of celebrities.

Xiao Fang is not quite at that level; she feels that it is quite good for everyone to do something they are interested in, she just didn't expect the crossover to be so big.

She clicked on the first episode of "That Rabbit", and then, she was stunned!

Because she watched many videos about JK Uniforms on Penguin Video yesterday, these videos did not have high popularity and the number of bullet comments was not large, but she wanted to watch every single one, so she adjusted the bullet comments yesterday.

The display area was pulled directly to 100%, which is full-screen display of bullet comments, and there was no bullet comment filtering; colored bullet comments and scrolling bullet comments, anyway, everything could be seen.

Since it is now eight-thirty in the evening, those viewers who started watching "That Year Those Rabbits" punctually at seven o'clock had already finished watching this short thing, and some had even watched it several times.

And some viewers are used to pulling the video to the very beginning after watching it, and then leaving bullet comments.

Among them, the essence of many viewers is a repeater; everyone likes to repeat the same words.

What Xiao Fang saw at this moment were overwhelming bullet comments, so many that she couldn't see the content clearly!

There were scrolling ones, colored ones, ones appearing in rows, countless.

This group of repeaters were all repeating the same sentence.

——"【Congratulations, you have discovered a treasure!】"
