Chapter 410: I Want It All!
These two short words were like a bomb dropped into Luo Mo's mind, and then it exploded.
The second round of territorial expansion thus began.
He could feel that in order not to show her timidity, after a moment of instinctive avoidance, Xu Chujing chose to comply.
The temperature of both of them began to rise, which made the alcohol in their bodies go to their heads even more.
A light tipsiness is a very good opportunity; if one drinks too much, there is no charm left at all.
On the large screen in the living room, *Nirvana in Fire* continued to play, and the content had already transitioned from romance to the main Drama.
As for outside the show, Luo Mo only cared about savoring the moment.
Xu Chujing was his star mentor on *Creating Idols*.
For a student to teach his teacher some little bits of knowledge she didn't know outside of "class," in the living room of her home, was naturally something one couldn't stop wanting.
It wasn't until Xu Chujing's curled-up knees gently nudged Luo Mo that he stood up again, looking down at the Heavenly Queen Xu lying on her side on the sofa, looking as if she were drunk.
This was the first time he had seen her face so red.
Even her originally fair neck, and the skin around her collarbone beneath it, were flushed with a rosy glow.
"It's, it's about time." Xu Chujing pursed her lips, which had been slightly parted to catch her breath.
"What's about time?" Luo Mo asked.
"Time's up, you should go back." Xu Chujing glanced at the wall clock in the living room.
When Luo Mo was at her place, he had to leave before eleven o'clock.
Hearing her words, Luo Mo opened his mouth.
He had originally wanted to ask, "Can you learn it?", but now he had no choice but to swallow the words back.
Luo Mo knew very well that the progress of a relationship is actually one line-crossing after another, one transgression after another.
However, people all have limits and bottom lines.
Especially women, who tend to think more. They will set up layers of defense for themselves, one bottom line after another, to avoid the other party thinking they are a casual, frivolous person.
Xu Chujing didn't dare to stay with Luo Mo any longer.
Because just now, Luo Mo's left hand had touched her hair, and then traveled all the way down to cradle her neck.
With just a light touch from this hand, she felt a jolt of electricity.
This was equivalent to grabbing the scruff of her neck: Hehe, caught you, little Cat.
Xu Chujing had no choice but to rush him out.
At this moment, Luo Mo had no choice but to stand up.
Xu Chujing walked barefoot on the floor to see him to the door.
Luo Mo seemed to have remembered something and said, "Right, remember to watch *King of Love Songs* next week."
"Next week?" Xu Chujing was puzzled.
Tomorrow is Sunday, and there is a Live Broadcast of a new episode of *King of Love Songs*.
"Yes, next week, which is the episode after next," Luo Mo said. "I was invited to the Semi-finals; there's a glory return stage."
After taking off his exclusive slippers and putting on his own shoes, he added, "I'll sing a song for you."
"Okay," Xu Chujing agreed.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and both knew what this represented.
After returning home, Luo Mo went back to his bedroom and took a shower in the bathroom to calm himself down.
He was young, after all.
After lying down on the bed, he checked his phone and saw that Xu Chujing had sent a WeChat message saying, "I'm going to wash up and go to sleep."
Luo Mo replied, "I just finished washing."
After about fifteen minutes, Xu Chujing finally replied.
"Then... good night."
Saying good night to each other had already become a daily routine.
However, the only difference today was that Xu Chujing sent the good night as a voice message.
Even though it was just a sentence spoken via voice, the feeling was different.
Luo Mo lay on his side on the bed like a fool, and after listening to it several times, he hurriedly sent a voice message back saying good night.
The night is the night of the whole world, but the peace is a peace given only to you.
That night, before falling asleep, both Xu Chujing and Luo Mo tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.
But once they fell asleep, they both slept incredibly sweetly.
………
………
The next day, early in the morning, Penguin Video put up a huge Poster to celebrate *Nirvana in Fire* hitting new highs in all data metrics.
To celebrate *Nirvana in Fire* breaking multiple records on Penguin Video again, Penguin also launched many promotional activities; anyone who signed up for a membership or renewed their membership this week could enjoy many discounts and benefits.
This was equivalent to giving a signal to Qiqu Video and Pineapple TV.
—Penguin has joined the war!
Both Qiqu Video and Pineapple TV were pushing to reach 50 million members, and last week they had launched the largest-scale campaign since their platforms were founded.
Although Penguin had also done some small activities, the scale wasn't that large.
This made Qiqu Video and Pineapple TV think that Penguin knew it didn't have the qualifications to join the final sprint stage, so there was no need to throw money away just to make noise.
However, only a few days had passed?
Why were they suddenly making such a big fuss?
In their eyes, Penguin had only one image—they were obsessed with money.
This does not fit their style; they would not spend money recklessly on useless things.
Then, there is only one explanation.
"Nirvana in Fire is even more ferocious than we imagined!"
Since it began airing, Nirvana in Fire has gone from leading Jade Pearl City and Nine Deadly Sins by a small margin to leading by a wide margin, and now, it can be said to be rubbing these two dramas into the dirt.
The top brass at Pineapple and Qiqu are both relieved: "Thank goodness, thank goodness, it's fortunate that Penguin's total accumulated members are much fewer than ours, and that Nirvana in Fire started airing at this stage."
"If it had aired a month earlier, there really wouldn't have been anything left for us!"
To everyone, Luo Mo is a terrifying opponent.
As soon as he made a move, he brought the various flops of Penguin Video this year back to life and had them chasing from behind!
But... this shouldn't be!
Especially for Qiqu Video; their total number of members was leading Penguin by quite a bit last month.
And looking at the current sprint strategy, Qiqu Video is deeply cultivating the fan circle, harvesting the leeks of traffic star fans.
The lead Actor of Jade Pearl City, Li Yang, is the head of the Four Little Dan, the male lead inside is a 【Best Actor】, and the second and third male leads are also traffic stars.
The fans of this group all want their own star's drama to be the one that helps the platform's member count break 50 million.
Within this, with just a little guidance, a group of people will open memberships, or even open memberships for several accounts.
Can't you open accounts for Mom and Dad?
Can't you gift them to friends?
Anyway, just throw money at it!
Although the final data from this method is very hollow, and the renewal ability of this batch of member accounts is also extremely low.
But that doesn't matter.
What everyone wants is just to be the first to break 50 million; the fight is over who is first!
Subsequent matters are another battlefield.
Looking at Pineapple TV, it is relying on the natural anticipation for suspense dramas like Nine Deadly Sins, and the psychology of everyone not wanting to be spoiled.
As mentioned before, the suspense genre is one of the drama types with the strongest ability to drive membership sign-ups.
At the same time, Pineapple TV has another major advantage.
That is, linking up with Pineapple Entertainment to let the stars under Pineapple Entertainment help out.
It's just that this group of stars doesn't currently have dramas airing on Pineapple TV, so although they can drive things a bit, the effect is definitely not as good as Jade Pearl City.
Wang Shisong and Wang Shibai, these two brothers, are purely Not Forgetting Original Intention: "The leeks must be harvested!"
Since membership data is internal data and belongs to the type that can or cannot be disclosed, the four major platforms generally announce the final results of the previous month at the beginning of each month, so Qiqu Video and Pineapple TV cannot figure out the situation on Penguin's side for the time being.
Although they are all puzzled and very confused, but... inexplicably, they are a little panicked!
This panic is not because they are afraid of Penguin Video.
It is simply because of the sense of insecurity that Luo Mo gives people!
Wang Shisong and Wang Shibai have a lot of experience in this area, so they feel it particularly strongly.
This led Qiqu Video and Pineapple TV to tacitly do the same thing.
That is, moving up the release dates of their upcoming dramas.
Those that can be moved up at will are mostly self-made web dramas of the platform, which can be completely decided by the platform itself.
For the Actors, this shortens the promotional cycle and also catches the expectant audience off guard; they might not even know it has already aired.
The sudden move to advance the schedule gives people the feeling that—we've been sacrificed.
We've become offerings! We've become victims!
We've become tools for the platform to scrape together members.
After all, although this approach is very rushed, it will definitely bring in a few more viewers and a few more members.
Besides this, Qiqu Video and Pineapple TV have also increased their discount efforts, making all kinds of concessions and cutting into their own profits.
—I'll cut first as a gesture of respect!
Seriously, it's hard not to panic now.
Looking at the situation, tonight, King of Love Songs will broadcast the final points match before the Semi-finals.
Then, next week is the eye-catching Semi-finals!
Nirvana in Fire + King of Love Songs is simply a combination that dominates from Friday to Sunday, an absolute blockbuster!
"Luo Mo! It's all because of Luo Mo!" Wang Shisong hated him deeply in his heart.
Thinking that this person was "missed" by him, and thinking that he could have signed with Pineapple, he was so angry that his teeth itched.
On the other side, Ning Dan and Ke Ming also received the signal conveyed from Penguin.
Wang Shisong already had improper thoughts about Run Jie, and since the Creating Idols grand finale, he has directly torn off the mask.
Ning Dan has been cooperating deeply with Penguin during this period, so she is also willing to cooperate more.
This afternoon, the production team of the second season of King of Love Songs, in addition to the routine promotion of the new episode's content, also posted a Poster.
—The Poster of 【King of Love Songs Luo Mo】!
The production team officially announced to the public that at the scene of the second season's Semi-finals, 【King of Love Songs Luo Mo】 will make a glorious return to perform.
He will bring a brand new love song!
Once this news was thrown out, it was simply a bombshell.
Who wouldn't look forward to Luo Mo's new stage?
"A love song? Finally, there's a new love song again?"
"Ah! I haven't heard enough of the love songs on the Black album!"
"Looking forward to it! My playlist is already starving!"
Under the intentional guidance of Penguin, these three sentences appeared on the internet:
"Watch Luo Mo on Friday."
"Watch Luo Mo on Saturday."
"Watch Luo Mo on Sunday."
This was a very crude method, using one card directly until it was exhausted.
Yet... there wasn't a single card that could be bigger than this trump card!
Ning Dan was generally clear about the current situation of the four major video platforms.
She couldn't help but recall a few things Luo Mo had said to her before.
He said that now was the best time.
Ning Dan hadn't understood it at first.
But the result was watching him, step by step, stir up the winds and clouds in another new field!
Clearly, this young man had been brought to fame from her own program.
Yet Ning Dan already deeply felt that the energy he now possessed had far surpassed her own.
Luo Mo was already equivalent to having his own ruling power within the video platforms.
"The prime time from Friday to Sunday."
"I want it."
The night gradually deepened.
The final points battle before the King of Love Songs semi-finals began.
