"Did you tell me whether the number one in the Dao is more powerful, or the three billionaires in the Palace are more powerful?"
"Of course, the number one in the Dao is the most impressive. This is a record-breaking achievement."
"I think Gong's work is more impressive. Dao's achievements may not last long, but Gong's achievements may last a long time. After all, this achievement is destined to be recorded in history."
"They're equally impressive, aren't they? You're making it sound like achieving those results is easy. It's actually quite difficult for both of them to achieve those results."
"What's the rush? Dao still has works to his name. Maybe he can get two billion. Two billion against three billion, and one of them is the highest record. Why can't he surpass Gong?"
"..."
Netizens discussed it enthusiastically.
The official organizers of the World Animation Film Competition, however, began a massive promotional campaign.
After all, this is a new record for the animated film competition, and also a World Guinness Record. Why not promote it?
The specifications are exactly the same.
It's comparable to the scale of the record-breaking event back then.
Clearly, in their view, the achievements Gong made this time were in no way inferior to those of Dao.
Such messages travel across the ocean and even reach the ears of netizens in China.
What they didn't expect was that such a thing could be publicized so widely.
However, this is quite normal, since only in this way can a person's abilities be demonstrated.
However, Chinese netizens expressed great dissatisfaction with the comments made by many netizens on the world forum.
"Since when has the first place become inferior to three lower-ranked teams?"
"He only got three billion. Dao's achievement is the highest so far. Gong can't compare to Dao at all."
"Besides, Dao still has works that haven't been released yet. Once Dao's works are released, he might achieve the same success as Gong."
Their reason for being dissatisfied is simple.
Throughout history, on any list, only the first place has always been recognized, never the second.
The same is true on this so-called sales ranking list.
Dao is ranked number one. As long as no one breaks this record, Dao will remain on this list for many years to come.
But now, some people are using the so-called three billion to challenge the authority of the Dao. Isn't this clearly saying that China is inferior to Japan?
This association makes any Chinese person feel uncomfortable, and of course they will want to argue their case.
However, as Japanese netizens have pointed out, just because the palace can obtain three billion doesn't mean others can.
If they're so capable, they should also come up with three billion; otherwise, to some extent, the achievements of the two are not that different.
This infuriated Chinese netizens, who felt ashamed of Japan's ability to distort the truth, yet they were powerless to refute it.
At least for now, there's no way to refute it, but who knows what will happen in the future.
Many netizens are eager for time to pass quickly, so that they can show these Japanese netizens how powerful Tao is.
It's just that he only has one work that has surpassed one billion views. When his other works are released, it won't be just one.
Moreover, these Japanese seem unaware of a problem: Dao only has one work that broke records and reached an unprecedented height, so what about his other works?
And so, tens of thousands of Chinese netizens began to look forward to the time passing quickly, as Tom's movie was about to be released. Fortunately, after this movie was released, it was Tao's movie that came next.
However, reality hit them like a ton of bricks; when Tom's sale came out, everyone was taken aback.
"No way, Tom's sales are only 800 million? That's way too low."
"What a joke! Tom's work is so excellent, how could he only have achieved so little?"
"This result is not low at all. Have you overlooked the fact that Tom's result is enough to rank in the top ten on the current sales chart?"
“That’s right. You can’t compare Tom’s work with Daohe Gong’s work. Instead, you should compare it with his previous works. If you compare them like that, Tom’s achievements are not weak at all. In fact, it’s already quite good that he has achieved this result.”
"This result shows that the market is already showing signs of fatigue. Otherwise, it would not have dropped by 200 million at once, comparable to the precipitous drop that happened at Daohe Palace."
"Oh no, seeing Tom's grades, I have a feeling that Dao's grades will be similar. Does that mean that Dao's grades will never surpass Gong's?"
"Now that you mention it, it's quite possible. Tomorrow's release is Dao's work. Looking at it this way, the sales of each of his works are declining. When Dao is released tomorrow, it will only reach 800 million at most, and it will not be able to break 1 billion at all."
He was initially very confident that Tao's second film would definitely break the billion mark, but after Tom's performance was announced, many Chinese netizens suddenly felt that this achievement might be a pipe dream.
In their initial predictions, Tom's score today, even if he couldn't achieve a billion, would still be over nine hundred million. But the result is only around eight hundred million.
Sales dropped so quickly that they were caught off guard.
Japanese netizens, upon learning of this situation, naturally responded with sarcasm and ridicule.
"These guys from the Celestial Empire thought that three billion was so easy to achieve, but now look what happened, reality has given them a heavy lesson."
"I estimate that when it comes to Dao's works, it will only reach 700 million. At that time, people will laugh their heads off."
