081. Tens of Millions of Viewers
After taking a shower in the bathroom, Lu Ban checked the empty drain, changed clothes, and lay down on the bed.
Although the metallic smell did not remain, it still lingered.
Lu Ban turned on the music player and fell asleep to the sound of the Spring Festival Gala playlist.
Afternoon, four o'clock.
Lu Ban woke up in the sunset. Since meeting the Silent Land, Lu Ban felt that the biggest change he had made was his work and rest time.
In the past, Lu Ban went to bed on time before twelve o'clock every night and did not leave fatigue and stress for the next day. Doctors said he was normal.
Now Lu Ban often goes to another world to chat with the ghost bride at night. He never gets enough sleep. The doctor even diagnosed him as a mental patient.
"What a tragedy!"
Lu Ban sat up. The room with the curtains drawn was dark, making people want to continue sleeping.
But with self-discipline like Lu Ban, I got up and turned on the computer.
"Today is Sister Hai's online concert, so you can't be late!"
He clicked on the live broadcast room of a singer and virtual anchor, and heard the indistinct singing voice.
"The sound of gongs and drums goes around several streets, several streets, and the alley opera begins."
The noisy festive music of gongs and drums reached Lu Ban's ears.
But this music soon merged with the wedding music heard by Lu Ban at Drywater Town.
The tune started to become strange, and the sound coming from the speakers became weird and hollow.
". May you live a long and prosperous life. May the Eight Immortals live longer than a hundred years. May you be in good health."
Just like the sad music played in those early Hong Kong horror movies.
Even the little figures dancing on the screen are emitting green light, looking like the color of the underworld.
"?"
Lu Ban frowned and patted the chassis.
". I wish everyone happiness and joy. Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and take big steps forward from the beginning."
The singing and picture returned to normal.
"The computer is a bit old."
Lu Ban is thinking that when the price of graphics cards comes down, he will find a way to build a new one. He still has Jiangcheng Industries's investment, so what if he doesn't buy the equipment properly.
After watching the concert, the satisfied Lu Ban clicked the mouse and the web page turned into the cold text of the system.
[Career Development Task]
[How long has it been since you updated? Are you satisfied with the status quo? It's time to satisfy those viewers who are waiting for you!]
[Task requirement: Make a video and get tens of millions of views]
[Number of viewers: 0/10000000]
["Congratulations on discovering the treasure of the station!"]
[Remaining time: 710:34:12]
"Tens of millions of views?"
Lu Ban found a difference in the system description.
Previously, the system had been measured by clicks and the like, but now it has been measured by the number of viewers.
This description means that without the need for a video website, it can be played directly on the big screen and tens of millions of people can watch the movie to meet the conditions?
Can we make a movie?
Yay!
But Lu Ban calculated it carefully.
With tens of millions of people playing it, if a movie ticket costs 30 yuan per person, that would be a box office of 300 million yuan.
Can a movie like yours without a star really attract so many people to the cinema?
Lu Ban I remember that there was a sci-fi blockbuster with several stars participating and an investment of 300 million. In the end, the box office was just over 100 million.
In the current domestic market, if you want to reach a box office of 300 million, you have to have some connections.
But if it is made into a video, it can be said that a video with millions of views is a historical process, and it can be achieved by standing at the forefront.
But videos with tens of millions of views are basically the treasures of the website. Their content and popularity are indispensable. Most of them are videos that will be talked about a few years later.
There are no tricks for making video tasks. You cannot make several short videos to get clicks. The first video uploaded by Lu Ban is the requirement of the task, so you must be cautious.
And, more importantly, this mission has a time limit.
More than 700 hours, almost a month, Lu Ban's video must be viewed by tens of millions of people within a month.
"It may be too late to make it into a movie."
Although the film review in this world is not so strict, and even plasma films can be screened on the big screen, they still have to be scheduled. Even if Lu Ban edits a serious movie with his eyes closed, when the movie is scheduled to be released, it may only take two or three days for the audience to go to the cinema.
It is very difficult to complete the viewing of tens of millions of people.
"Can I just continue on the video path?"
Lu Ban thought that he had obtained three days of video material this time, including the fog, Drywater Town's beach, Hai Family Mansion's night, and the wedding day, and put them into one video. At this time, it looked crazy and stretched.
Although many viewers have left messages in the past saying that Lu Ban's videos are short and they can finish them after watching it for a while, Lu Ban is very clear that these viewers are duplicitous guys who say it is short, but if the video really becomes longer, they feel it is too long and do not want to watch it and ask for a summary.
According to statistics from Old Days Video Network, when a video is longer than twenty minutes, the number of clicks will be reduced by 30%, and when the video is longer than forty minutes, the number of clicks will be reduced by 70%
But this number will return again after more than an hour, that is to say, the number of clicks on videos longer than one hour will become higher.
Some students may ask, why is this?
Because most videos of more than an hour are not amateur entertainment videos, but movies, popular science, documentaries, etc. For example, an e-sports match lasts more than an hour, and tens of thousands of people can watch it online at the same time.
However, it is still very difficult for a long video to reach tens of millions of views.
Lu Ban took a look at the rankings of Old Days Video Network, his main battlefield, and found that more than 10 million views were played in an hour or so. You can basically count them on one hand.
It was either a speed explanation of some long-form animation, a game live broadcast by a popular anchor, or an interactive video that claimed to have hundreds of endings.
"Huh?"
Interactive video?
Lu Ban clicked on the video.
This kind of video is different from the previous videos that were played linearly. Instead, it has various options. You can make choices while watching the video, and you will see different developments depending on the choice, just like a text adventure game.
The essence is the concatenation of many video clips.
Lu Ban played the video and made selections as the video unfolded. After more than ten minutes, looking at the BAD END on the screen, Lu Ban refreshed the video unconvinced and continued to start from the beginning.
In this way, every time it is replayed, the number of clicks will increase a little. If one person has finished the hundreds of endings, it is equivalent to playing it hundreds of times.
It was not until night again that Lu Ban finally achieved its first good ending with the help of the guide.
"This thing is indeed a bit high."
When he saw the 10 million views, he quickly had an idea in his mind.
