“Our thoughts are consistent with those of Huaxia and the United States! We disagree with the temporary rule change!” The representative from Neon also spoke up.
Although their entry into the finals this time was a bit touch-and-go for Neon, being touch-and-go doesn't mean there's no chance!
So, even if South Korea's proposal was also beneficial to them, Neon's representative directly refused.
It's not shameful to be unable to defeat Huaxia and the United States.
As long as they step on South Korea and avoid coming in last, it's fine.
Moreover, their domestic audience and netizens highly admire Ida Shoichiro, so even if he loses in the end and doesn't make it to the finals, the impact won't be too significant.
Who made the opponents too strong?
“Then our South Korean lyricists and composers will withdraw from the live broadcast of the eleventh episode!”
The representative from the South Korean TV station did not expect the three parties to refuse so decisively.
But he still had one last move, which was to have the two South Korean lyricists and composers withdraw directly!
Now, with less than a week until the eleventh live broadcast, it would be difficult to find replacements.
And the audience and netizens of the Four Nations probably wouldn't buy it, right?
“Use your brain when you speak. I feel like you haven’t looked at the liquidated damages clause, have you? If your South Korean SS TV station is willing to pay these liquidated damages, you are welcome to withdraw at any time!”
The United States representative looked disdainful!
What a joke, ten times the liquidated damages for variety show losses!
If your financial backers knew what you said, they'd probably want to kill you, right?
And this meeting between the Four Nations representatives ended unhappily.
Of course, only the South Korean representative was unhappy.
“According to my idea, we won’t include them in the second season! We’ll just find seven more countries and have a Ten Nations Concert!”
After the South Korean representative left, the United States representative looked at the others present and proposed.
Goodness, he really doesn't stop until he says something shocking. The first season hasn't even determined a winner yet, and he's already thinking about the second season?
“It’s too early to discuss the second season now, but since this first season has been so successful, I personally believe the second season won’t be difficult!”
The Huaxia representative replied with a smile.
He felt that this plan to appropriately open the door to entertainment and culture had been very successful.
Of course, this success was built on the genius of Su Yu.
Although Chu Ming’s performance was also commendable, it was clearly not enough to establish the reputation of Huaxia music using Chu Ming as the sole card.
As for whether there would be a second season, in his opinion, it depended on whether Su Yu would continue to participate.
If there was no longer Su Yu, this monstrous lyricist and composer with overwhelming power representing Huaxia, who knew what the final outcome would be!
After seeing the huge profits, the major capital powers wouldn't care about honor. What they thought most about was how to insert their people and let them gain greater benefits!
If possible, they hoped there would be more entertainment companies like Tianxing Entertainment.
This way, the atmosphere in the Huaxia entertainment industry could also improve.
At least now in terms of music, the domestic market has gradually begun to develop in a better direction.
And the biggest contributor is Tianxing Entertainment, or rather, the Tianxing Entertainment Music Department represented by Su Yu!
South Korea's proposal ultimately came to nothing; no one truly cared about them.
And discussions about the Four Nations Concert continued online.
After all, it was almost the last episode of the regular season.
Who could secure the last three spots in the finals truly worried the netizens and audiences of the three nations.
As for South Korean audiences and netizens? They were all currently cursing their own country's lyricists and composers for being incompetent.
This time, they truly felt utterly disgraced.
The most infuriating thing was that they didn't even have the confidence to cry “foul play”!
The “under-the-table” operation in the tenth episode was simply too damaging to their reputation.
...
Time flew by, and it was now the evening of the 15th.
This day was not a special day, “it was just” the finale of the return of the condor heroes.
Compared to the 60-episode legend of the condor heroes, the 32-episode the return of the condor heroes finished much faster.
This left countless viewers and netizens feeling that they hadn't watched enough or enjoyed it enough!
In this era where a drama often has forty or fifty episodes, how could such a competitive big IP only have a pitiful 32 episodes?
Are they suspecting that these viewers and netizens look down on them?
And Yang Guo, played by Su Yu, was truly too handsome!
The line “One encounter with Yang Guo ruins a lifetime” could truly be perfectly experienced in this TV series.
Even if the final Yang Guo had lost an arm and even wore a human skin mask!
But it could not stop his continuous charm that could be released even through the screen!
And Han Jiangxue's portrayal of Little Dragon Girl was also very ethereal, almost fulfilling all the audience's and readers' imaginations of Little Dragon Girl in the book.
This led them to feel that they were not watching a TV series, but rather experiencing and witnessing the legendary lives of Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl.
So at the end of the finale, many people felt very conflicted.
One was wanting to know the final outcome, and the other was not wanting it to end so simply!
Jinling TV, Magic City TV, and even Tengfei Video, how could they not have this mindset?
As early as episode 22, the average viewership ratings had both surpassed the previous records of 4.9 and 5.03 set by the legend of the condor heroes.
On the night of the finale on the 15th, the average viewership ratings even reached 5.34 and 5.37!
How long had it been since the crown of the annual drama king was passed on so smoothly?
While the outside world sighed with emotion, they also envied Tianxing Entertainment for being able to continuously produce three well-received and popular works.
However, envy was useless; they simply couldn't get the copyrights!
And what was even more infuriating was yet to come: the third part of the legend of the condor heroes series, the heaven sword and dragon saber, was already in production...
It was easy to imagine what kind of viewership miracle this drama would create when it went online!
Of course, netizens would only anticipate and urge the director, Liu Xialai, to hurry up!
Liu Xialai and the crew members, after finishing a day of filming, actually didn't rest but gathered to read the online reviews of the return of the condor heroes.
Aside from some comments mocking Liu Xialai for being “short” and urging him to quickly film the heaven sword and dragon saber, what Liu Xialai and others cared about most was the final rating of the drama.
Since its premiere, the drama had never dropped below 9.1 points, and before the finale, it had even miraculously risen to 9.4 points!
And after tonight's finale, the rating even reached an astonishing 9.5!
One should know that the highest rating for the legend of the condor heroes was only 8.9 points!
While Liu Xialai and others were excited, they also felt that the lead performances by Su Yu and Han Jiangxue truly added a lot of brilliance to this TV series.
Otherwise, the rating would not have been so abnormal.
