Chapter 1746: Chapter 916 Key Battle_2

For example, the once-popular young male stars, there are fewer and fewer people buying into them.

Because Feiyue Media has begun to cultivate a batch of artists with both good looks and talent.

For instance, talented and aesthetically pleasing female singers and powerful handsome male singers, along with explosive new actors, have all debuted under the careful cultivation of Feiyue Media. The meticulously produced Xianxia dramas and costume dramas have sparked a wave of critically acclaimed works with releases like "The Legend of Fairy Sword" and "Langya List".

Many online viewers expressed that since Feiyue Media gradually established a foothold in the cultural entertainment industry, audiences are no longer bombarded by all kinds of trash productions.

Moreover, on the Feiyue Home streaming media platform under Feiyue Media, the number of Feiyue’s self-produced dramas and movies released each year is increasing and every work is of exceptional quality.

Besides, on the Feiyue Home streaming media platform, watching TV shows and movies comes without ads. It can be said that on the Feiyue Home streaming media platform, except for Feiyue Media’s own product promotions, there are absolutely no other ads, and Feiyue Media’s self-produced dramas and movies do not contain in-show advertisements either.

The emergence of the Feiyue Home streaming media platform can be considered a breath of fresh air in the domestic video field, directly striking at platforms such as Penguin Video and AiYi Video, which are notoriously greedy, earning the love and strong support of a large number of online users!

Due to the high quality of various self-produced dramas and movies on the Feiyue Home streaming media platform, and under the paid viewing model, with more and more viewers coming to watch, the Feiyue Home streaming media platform soon started turning a profit.

That’s right!

Platforms like Penguin Video and AiYi Video have been in perpetual loss for years, trying every means to extract money from consumers’ pockets, yet the services they provide really leave much to be desired.

Whereas a place like the Feiyue Home streaming media platform, dedicated to providing premium content, has genuinely received the ’love’ of its online viewers. This also indicates that the taste of domestic audiences has indeed improved, and the payment awareness is originally quite strong, allowing the Feiyue Home streaming media platform to quickly start netting profits.

One week later.

Korea, Seoul.

The great battle between the national football team and the Korean Team began at the sports center in Seoul.

Since the home field is on the Korean side, the number of domestic fans was very small. Coupled with the previous loss to the Thai Team, many domestic fans were heartbroken.

This time, the domestic fans present seemed few and far between, mainly students and alumni from Mist City Arts and Science University, some relatives and friends of the team, as well as Ding Yue and a group of others.

The number of fans on the Korean Team’s side was slightly larger, but it seemed that the fans didn’t feel there was much suspense in this match, so there were not as many fans present as expected. Approximately only a third of the large stadium’s seating was occupied.

In other words, this football stadium, which can accommodate fifty thousand people, had only a little over ten thousand spectators from both sides combined present, most of whom were Korean Team fans.

"Yue, I took a look, and this time very few domestic fans came."

Huang Youjie looked around and only saw a scattered few domestic fans.

"Before coming here, I checked online, and many fans expressed they wouldn’t come to watch this match in person because the previous match against the Thai Team really broke their hearts. Although the national team has been reorganized with players from our Feiyue Team, the fans said they would wait and see."

Xu Bin explained.

"Hmm hmm."

Ding Yue nodded as well, knowing about this situation, so was mentally prepared. It’s just that his own Feiyue Team players might feel a bit... shall we say disappointed due to too few home fans present.

After all, everyone wants countless fans cheering for them in the stadium, especially when they score a goal, hearing the exhilarating cheers from home fans.

Imagine scoring on the field, yet there’s no cheering – that feeling is indeed a bit unsettling.

Fortunately, the players of the Feiyue Team are very well-grounded, and psychological stress training is a crucial part of their training program.

"For Li Shuangying and the others, this could be quite a psychological challenge."

Xu Bin analyzed, saying.

"Yes, but I trust that they can handle it. Even if there aren’t many fans here in person to support, I believe there will be many fans watching in front of the livestream."

Ding Yue slightly furrowed his brow and said.

Feiyue Home streaming media platform has a dedicated livestream room for broadcasting the World Cup Pre-Match, with the platform’s professional sports channel team broadcasting live and complementary professional commentary.

"Yue, we can later ask the Feiyue Home streaming media platform’s livestream room to see the data for this livestream. By comparing it to the last match against the Thai Team, we can roughly gauge how many fans watched this match."

Huang Youjie turned his head and reminded Ding Yue.

"Yes, I can inquire with the Feiyue Home streaming media platform."

Ding Yue nodded slightly and said, "Forget it, these are all vague metrics. Winning or losing this match is the most critical. The game is about to start."

With that, the match was about to begin, and players from both teams started to take the field.

Of course, it was the Korean Team, the hosts, who took the field first.

The football strength of the Korean Team is still quite strong in the Asian division, and they are notoriously known for playing dirty. Most crucially, since the Korean Team is the host, the main referee is also one of theirs.

Thus, it appears the national team is at a slight disadvantage. However, as long as they rely on their skills, unless the Korean Team’s biased referee decisions are too ridiculous, they can defeat the Korean Team.

When the Korean Team took the field, cheers thundered from the stands.

No choice.

After all, this is the Korean Team’s home ground, with over ten thousand of their fans present.

After the national team took the field, there were cheers from the stands too, though not as strong, forming a stark contrast to the Korean Team’s fans’ cheers.

"Ying, there are few of our fans here in the audience."

Liu Zhan stood beside Li Shuangying, saying.

"Don’t worry about it. Even if there’s not a single audience member, we will give our all to finish this match!"

Li Shuangying firmly said to Liu Zhan.

"Yes, yes, and Principal Ding is watching us play, cheering for us. Let’s do our best!" Liu Zhan nodded. His mindset and determination remained unshaken.

The entire team’s mindset and determination lined up with Liu Zhan and Li Shuangying’s.

They can only win this battle, not lose.

If they lose, they will lose not only fan support but also reputation. Blaming the strong Korean Team is not an excuse. If they win, they can possibly regain over half of what they’ve lost, especially the fans’ support and confidence, which is most crucial.

The whistle blew.

The second World Cup Pre-Match between the national team and the Korean Team officially began.

In reality, although many domestic fans expressed online that they would first observe the national team’s performance rather than blindly support it, in fact, even if they didn’t attend the match in person, they would still watch the livestream.

The traffic in the Feiyue Home streaming media platform’s livestream room was also not low, but compared to the previous match against the Thai Team, it indeed couldn’t match up.

However, the topic’s heat, due to the previous loss to the Thai Team and the accumulation of subsequent hot topics, had yet to even reach two weeks. Therefore, for this match against the Korean Team, the topic’s heat on various online forums and social media was still quite high.
