Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

Chapter 46 Two Chess Pieces Shine, Cultural Heritage is Passed Down

As time went on, the martial arts epic "Swordsman's Journey," which Tencent Video poured its heart and soul into producing, started strong but ended weak.

The plot inevitably falls into a formulaic cycle of "protagonist encounters danger → falls off a cliff/meets a master → obtains a fortuitous encounter/secret manual → gains immense strength → makes a powerful comeback to slap the opponent in the face and turn the tables".

The character portrayals are also tending to be flat.

The clear distinction between good and evil lacks the complexity and depth of human nature, making it difficult to resonate with the audience.

Viewers initially drawn in by top-notch special effects and lavish marketing gradually experienced aesthetic fatigue and a dull storyline.

Its rating dropped from 9.7 at the start to below 8.5.

And there is still a downward trend.

Conversely, the Go duo from the Land of Light are gaining popularity.

The Go Master was previously criticized by some for its slow pace.

After the initial setup, the plot finally reaches its climax.

After experiencing the excruciating pain of losing his family and the suffering of his teachers and friends, the protagonist Jiang Liuer matures rapidly.

After enduring many hardships, he became a disciple of Lin Xincheng, the retired chess master of the previous generation.

Under Lin Xincheng's guidance, Jiang Liuer gained a preliminary understanding of his lifelong martial arts skills.

The profound meaning of the "Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth" contains the ultimate principles of heaven and earth.

When this episode aired, the profound chess game demonstration, accompanied by magnificent background music, stirred the hearts of countless viewers.

The screen was instantly flooded with shouts of "Welcome the successor of the Chess Saint!", "Heaven and earth are united, invincible under heaven!", and "Jiang Liuer rises!"

All the build-up from before culminates in this moment of pure exhilaration.

Meanwhile, another series, "Hikaru no Go," continues to amaze fans with its pure and intensely passionate storyline.

Under the guidance of the Go master Chu Ying, time has grown rapidly in various Go competitions.

The intense competition between him and Yu Liang was one of rivalry and confidantship, a mutual pursuit and encouragement.

And Chu Ying's unwavering pursuit of the "divine move," the highest level of Go, spanning over a thousand years...

Every plot point resonated with young viewers' passion for dreams, growth, and friendship.

Many young people who originally knew nothing about and had no interest in Go.

Inspired by "Go Master" and "Hikaru no Go", I spontaneously went to search for the rules of Go.

Some even downloaded online chess platforms to try their hand at playing.

I dream that one day I will also find my own "divine move" on the chessboard.

The novel "Go Master" carries the classical spirit of family, country, and chivalry.

The anime series "Hikaru no Go" ignited a modern flame of youthful dreams and competitive passion.

The two works complement each other, their reputation continues to rise, and they have great staying power.

Both of them maintained a stable score of 9.7.

Core metrics such as viewership and paid subscription rates have shown explosive growth.

It completely left "Swordsman's Journey" far behind, which started strong but ended weak, not even able to see its taillights.

Even more unexpectedly, these two anime series about Go have generated a powerful feedback effect.

It has truly empowered the Go industry in the real world.

The most direct manifestation of this is the number of Go academies and training institutions in major cities.

Among them, the "YiQu" Go Club located in City A is the most typical.

The chess hall, which used to be deserted, has seen a significant increase in visitors recently.

Young people flocked to inquire and register.

Young people flocked to inquire and register, all clamoring to learn "the unity of heaven and earth" and to experience "the divine hand".

Director Wang has been so busy these past few days that he barely has time to breathe, but his smile has been so wide it's almost ear-to-ear.

He asked these young people curiously why they had become interested in Go.

The answers were surprisingly consistent.

I either watched "Go Master" or "Hikaru no Go".

Therefore, Director Wang specifically searched for these two animations.

Upon closer inspection, the production company is the Land of Light Animation Studio.

Surprisingly, it's a company located in City A.

To express his gratitude, Director Wang immediately purchased the complete sets of both works in their original form.

He was surprised to find after paying that the two animations together cost less than 30 yuan.

Now, Director Wang's gratitude towards A-Guang and the Land of Light was even greater.

And the top players in the Go world.

The popularity of the live streams of eight-time champion Ke Jie and Zhan Ying, who "punched up the nursing home," has also reached new heights due to the popularity of these two animations.

Countless new anime fans flooded into their live stream, and the chat was filled with references to "Go Master" and "Hikaru no Go".

"Jackie! Do you even know how to 'unite heaven and earth'?"

"Yingzi! Have you ever used a 'divine move'? Show us!"

Longtime fans offered explanations, finding the situation both amusing and exasperating.

"I don't know if Jebo will achieve the ultimate goal, but his technique for chasing three-star five-cost units is absolutely divine!"

"In a sense, Jebo's four-star Jhin dealing zero damage is a kind of alternative 'harmony between heaven and earth,' right? (doge)"

"You know what, when Yingzi was commentating on Go last time, that one move she made made Chess Master Nie exclaim, 'Dude, Yingzi!' Would you call that a 'divine move'?"

"Haha, that one word 'bro' instantly boosted Yingzi's seniority, making her a 'veteran warrior' on the spot!"

Faced with this overwhelming wealth.

To promote Go culture, the Kingdom of Light, through its intentional or unintentional connections and facilitation, facilitated the event.

Ke Jie and Zhan Ying, these two famous "rivals" in the Go world, made a decision that shocked all their fans.

A temporary reconciliation was reached, and they agreed to co-host the live stream.

The live stream was a huge success.

The two continued their daily banter and sabotage, producing witty remarks and constant laughs;

On one hand, he became unusually serious, explaining Go knowledge in a simple and easy-to-understand way, and commenting on classic Go games that appeared in the animation with his own professional knowledge.

This starkly different livestreaming style attracted a massive audience, causing the livestream's popularity to skyrocket and breaking the platform's record for the highest number of concurrent viewers this year.

Fans were inexplicably moved as they watched the two bickering on screen, their atmosphere clearly harmonious.

"Holy crap! This is a once-in-a-lifetime moment! I can't believe I'm seeing Jiebao and Yingzi in the same frame without them fighting!"

"These two masters are really going all out for the sake of the inheritance and future of Go!"

"Is this the charm of Go? Even these two rivals can temporarily unite?"

"The Land of Light has done immeasurable good! Not only did they create top-notch animation, but they also indirectly promoted unity within the Go community!"

Thus, in the 2D animation arena, Land of Light, with its classic and modern duet of "Go Master" and "Hikaru no Go," has completely defeated Tencent Video's "Swordsman Online."

This also proves to the entire industry that A-Guang and his team have top-notch skills in handling niche topics.

At this moment, within the domestic entertainment capital alliance.

The only one that can still barely suppress Yang Qian in terms of popularity and data is Li Zi Entertainment's "Star Warrior".

However, just when everyone's attention was focused on the showdown between these few works that were on the surface.

An inconspicuous account quietly uploaded a video to a short video platform.

"I am filing a formal complaint against artist Wu, alleging that he repeatedly lured young girls into sexual relations under the guise of MV casting and studio contracts. I have evidence..."
