"As Soon As We Meet" debuted with an impressive 190 million views in its first 24 hours.
This view count was already very impressive, and it dominated the Facebook trending topics that day. The official
Facebook of "As Soon As We Meet" also continuously posted celebration announcements on Facebook. Fans of
Lydia, the lead actress, were elated, celebrating her as the queen of ratings!
However, the premiere of "Nirvana and Rebirth" two days later changed everything.
The official Facebook for the show remained silent for a full day, leading to online mockery and speculation of a
poor performance.
"They must be hiding terrible numbers."
"Who would even watch that show?" another chimed in, adding fuel to the fire.
"This is hilarious. If they had beaten 'As Soon As We Meet,' they would have released the data immediately. Why
haven't they reacted yet?"
"Is the staff at the official Facebook still asleep? Haha."
The silence from the official Facebook account was deafening, and the online mockery intensified.

Violeta's fans were anxious, urging the official Facebook for updates.
By 2 PM, with no news in sight, the criticism had reached a fever pitch.
Finally, at 8 PM, the official Facebook account made a move but not with the expected polished announcement.
Instead, a simple phone screenshot of the backstage viewership data was posted, revealing an astounding truth.
The screenshot clearly displayed a long string of numbers.
Hundreds, thousands, millions.
Gosh!
The 24-hour cumulative view count for the premiere of "Nirvana and Rebirth" was 300 million!
Three! Hundred! Million! Views!
Facebook erupted in disbelief and excitement as the news spread like wildfire.
Lydia's fans, who had been so quick to criticise, were now speechless.
The raw screenshot, devoid of any fanfare, spoke volumes about the confidence of the "Nirvana and Rebirth"
team.
The unfiltered screenshot of the viewership data revealed that the "Nirvana and Rebirth" team hadn't planned on
releasing it until they were repeatedly pressured. They hadn't even bothered to create a promotional poster,
simply posting the raw data.
The Facebook post was flooded with tens of thousands of comments within a short time, silencing those who had
predicted the show's failure.
Lydia's initial strategy to outshine Violeta's new had backfired spectacularly.
"Nirvana and Rebirth's" premiere view count dwarfed all other s airing concurrently, including "As Soon As
We Meet," with a staggering 110 million view difference.
The show's unexpected success was a harsh blow to Lydia's camp!
Initially, "Nirvana and Rebirth's" official Facebook hadn't intended to release the data.
But after so much urging and fanning the flames, now that the data was out, it was clear who got the short end
of the stick. Lydia's fans were no longer boastful.
Trending topics like "Nirvana and Rebirth's premiere view count exceeds 300 million!" quickly dominated social
media.
While the public revelled in the excitement, industry insiders recognised the irony of the situation.

The highly anticipated showdown between Violeta and Lydia had ended in a decisive victory. Lydia had lost.
The thof "As Soon As We Meet" was an old one. Although the lead had a certain draw, the fresh thof
"Nirvana and Rebirth" was more stimulating to the current audience's senses and more in line with their tastes.
The times had changed.
If there were no other s airing at the stime, "As Soon As We Meet" could have been the number one
in ratings.
But now, second place is a certainty.
Violeta's commercial value soared with two hit s under her belt.
The official Facebook page of "Nirvana and Rebirth" gained 5 million new followers, and director Wendy's
personal Facebook page also saw a surge in popularity.
Violeta's personal Facebook account skyrocketed to 40 million followers, solidifying her position as the most
followed artist of her generation.
Despite the overwhelming success, the slow release pace of one episode per day left the audience craving more.
