A great director who grew up happily

Chen Jinnian rushed to the TV using his hands and feet, cut off the power, turned off the screen, and shut himself up in the corner.

The reason for such a big reaction was that he did not disconnect in time when he was projecting the screen, causing the entire mobile phone screen to be synchronized to the TV.

What’s more, damn it, everything he had to say in his chat with Wang Yidi was seen by everyone.

The four people just stood there, watching the two of them play the meme quietly.

Watching the goblin and Tang Seng sending messages to each other.

live.

Ahhhhhh.

Could it be more embarrassing than this?

Chen Jinnian knelt on the ground and buried his head in the sofa, his heart dead. At this moment, he had already thought about where to bury himself in the future.

What happened today will suddenly emerge from the depths of his dead memories and continue to attack him in countless days and nights to come.

But Grandpa still didn't quite understand what they had just said. After hesitating for a while while sitting on the sofa, he said, "Jinnian, don't let your mind wander. We can't become monks."

After hearing this, Chen Jinnian died!

"Dad, please stop talking and just wait quietly for the movie." Su Ying rolled her eyes at her father. He didn't know what was going on even in such a state. He was really stupid.

Su Ying had noticed something was wrong with the two children as early as the oath-taking ceremony. There must be something wrong. The last time she spoke to her son, she was still trying to hide the truth. Today's confirmation is the real deal.

As for Chen Ming, who was tinkering with the TV, he knew it earlier.

After Song Qian and Old Qiao joined forces to force the emperor to abdicate last time, he knew that the girl his son liked was called Wang Yidi, but he never knew what she looked like. After seeing the photo just now, he found that she was indeed very beautiful.

At the same time, he also understood why his son was not interested in the daughter of Old Qiao family.

Grandma patted her husband in disdain, complaining in her heart, "Don't you see how embarrassed the child is? He's still talking about making irrelevant remarks and even becoming a monk. I think you look like a monk. You're almost buried in the earth up to your neck, and you still don't have any sense."

Seeing that he was disliked by two women at the same time, grandpa knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he sat obediently on the sofa, not moving.

Su Ying walked over and patted her son's raised butt, feeling both amused and angry. If he hid his head, he wouldn't be able to see it. "Go, wash the watermelon, cut it up and bring it over."

"Oh," Chen Jinnian agreed, got up dejectedly and ran into the kitchen.

In the living room, Chen Ming finally finished it and started playing, but he forgot to turn off the barrage. As soon as the movie started playing, it was covered by a bunch of overwhelming barrage.

"Warning, warning."

"Look, just look, and don't say a word."

"I thought it was a comedy before I saw it, but I realized it was a drama in the middle, and only at the end did I realize it was a scam."

"I'm the director's sister, and this movie is for me."

"Sisters, I want all the information about this male protagonist."

……

"I just bought this TV, how come it's broken?" After seeing the dense barrage of comments, grandpa thought it was a screen problem.

"No, no, this is a new thing now, called barrage, which means leaving a message when someone is watching." Chen Ming explained quickly, and hurriedly checked the function to block the barrage.

"This newfangled thing is old and I don't understand it."

"Dad, the more comments there are, the more people are watching it. This shows that your grandson's movie is popular." Chen Ming continued.

The barrage of comments that just appeared also shocked him. He didn't expect that the movie had only been online for two or three hours and so many people had sent barrages. Many of them ran to the beginning to leave messages after watching the movie.

What does this mean? This means this movie is going to be a hit.

Maybe, I can really make a lot of money like my son said.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming couldn't help laughing out loud.

Su Ying, who was chatting quietly with Chen Jinnian's grandmother, heard Chen Ming's laughter, kicked him, and drove him into the kitchen. Then, she continued to talk about the two children.

From grandma's bright smile, you can tell that she is very happy now.

When Chen Ming came to the kitchen, he found that the watermelon was still soaking in the sink, without even moving, while Chen Jinnian was sitting aside, browsing his mobile phone.

Shaking his head helplessly, he took out the watermelon and started cutting it.

Chen Jinnian was not lazy actually, but he had just discovered the problem with the barrage. He was browsing the comment section and roughly estimating the number of effective members watching.

Now it is 15, and online movies are just emerging. However, various supporting data and supervision are lacking. Even the online movies screened by the platforms will not release the data to the public in real time.

The online movie with the highest box office at the moment is "The Taoist Comes Out of the Mountain 1", which was released on iQiyi in April this year.

It was said to have been shot in 8 days with an investment cost of 28 yuan, but it grossed 2400 million yuan at the box office, creating a myth of a return on investment of nearly %.

Chen Jinnian has also seen this movie. It is 70 minutes long and has low-quality props and sets.

So he believed the cost of 28, but he was a little skeptical about the box office of 2400 million.

This movie barely broke the 300 million box office after thirteen days of release. If it had followed the normal online box office curve, it would have had a maximum box office of 6 million after the six-month payment cycle, which would not have exceeded 600 million.

In addition, tickets for this movie are paid, and the total box office and the share of the box office that the producer can get are different. No one knows how much water is mixed in except the parties involved.

In 2015, Internet companies were so busy grabbing market share that they were completely brainless. No matter what crazy moves they made, they would not be surprised.

These circumstances also mean that Chen Jinnian currently has no data as a reference and can only roughly estimate the factual data based on comment data.

However, what bothered him was that there were too many active people in the comment section. He had no way of distinguishing how many of them were members and how many were just passersby joining in the fun.

Chen Jinnian can't tell the difference, but some people can.

The staff on duty at Penguin Video immediately noticed the abnormal data of this movie, including the extremely outrageous viewing time of members and the terrifying new member acquisition rate.

All these prove the excellent user stickiness of this movie. Soon, these related contents began to be submitted and entered the internal review process.

For the online film sector, this is a godsend. It is a perfect opportunity to compete with other platforms and seize market share.

Approve resources, invest in publicity and promotion, and get to work.

What? You're talking about losing money. Wrong. This is called investing in the future. Anything that can be solved by burning money is not a problem.

So the next day, on the way to school, Chen Jinnian received a call from Penguin Video.

"Hello, you must be Teacher Chen Jinnian." A sweet female voice came out.

Hearing the other party call him teacher, Chen Jinnian replied hesitantly: "Oh, oh, I should... right, if you are not mistaken."

The other party didn't expect him to reply like this. He was silent for a while, probably going to check the number.

Later, the other person said, "Haha, Mr. Chen, you're really humorous. I'm from Penguin Video, and I'm here to tell you that your movie has broken a record. The platform will announce this achievement as soon as possible."

"Ah, I broke the record already?!"
