Chapter 8 The number one person in Internet University
"What should I do with this part?" After finishing the system, Ding Hui had a headache looking at his mobile phone. Everything was fine in the beginning, but in the end...
Is the movie edited or not?
"Forget it, this is called explosion." I finally decided to upload it. I will give you an idea of what it means to really listen, watch and feel.
After editing the five-minute video, I opened the Douyin backstage. I already had 66,000 fans, over 3 million clicks, and 2.3 million death penalty.
Click to upload, shocking! Real electrocution scene!
Ding Hui was very satisfied with watching the three videos. After a few more shots, they combined them into one theme, all of which were young and fresh meat that shocked everyone.
"Here he comes, the man seeking death is finally here again!"
"My dear, is this actually an electrocution?"
"Fuck, that's awesome!"
"Brother Hui couldn't have been dragged to quit his Internet addiction, right?"
"Master Yang returns to the world!"
"It's so scary that timid babies don't dare to watch it!"
"Is it okay for the one upstairs to change the ID and reinstall it?"
"Fuck, this acting is amazing!"
"Is it imitating a scene from a movie again? This is too real!"
"Brother Hui is so awesome!"
"Can anyone explain what the water in your crotch is at the end?"
"Isn't it really electric urine?"
"Be civilized, that's called incontinence!"
"I'm done with it, I'm just risking my life for acting!"
"No way, absolutely impossible, I bet it's the special effects!"
“My eyes filled with tears when I played Douyin for the first time, Brother Hui, Respect!”
"I am now a junior at the Chinese Theater Academy. I heard that I came here because of the reputation. After watching it, I was shocked. I have sent the video to my instructor and strongly request to meet Brother Hui in person."
"I am Ding Hui's brother and a well-known agent in Hengdian. Thank you for your attention and encouragement. If you have dreams of becoming an actor, please contact Liu Quntou. Maybe you will be the star of tomorrow!"
Looking at Liu Datou who was blatantly poaching, Ding Hui just wanted to curse.
Turning off Douyin and opening Station B, the number of fans had just exceeded 40,000, but there were so many likes and coins backstage. Ding Hui smiled when he looked at the 22,000 creative incentives.
Station B is still real!
Douyin has a lot of traffic, but it is not very popular. It can only increase its influence. Bilibili is more reliable for making money. Especially for coins, it is worth real money.
So you have to walk on two legs. Douyin Station B has to be grasped with both hands, and both hands have to be hard. Looking at the ever-expanding number of fans, actor Ding Hui has more than 100,000 fans online, and Hengdian Group Actors are among the top ten terrifying existences.
I went downstairs to eat, and met a few acquaintances on the way who came up to me and started to get close to each other. They called each other "Brother Hui" and "Brother Hui". They were polite and modest on the outside, but happy on the inside.
Is this what it feels like to be a star?
It’s so cool!
After showing off for a while and going home, the Dengeki video had 690,000 views. Because of the large fan base, the data increased very quickly, and it only took a few hours to reach one million.
The number of fans has increased to 80,000 in a wave. According to this pace, it is not a big problem to break 100,000 today. In just three days, I have become a small Internet celebrity?
By the way, I heard that if the fans of Station B exceed 100,000, they will get a small brand card as a gift?
Fans are second, what excites Ding Hui the most is the real money, 22,000 from Station B and 16,000 from Douyin, and he made 38,000 from three videos!
There was nothing to say all night, and I slept well. The next morning I found an acquaintance and bought a second-hand professional camera, along with a complete set of stands. If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. From now on, this is the guy who eats.
I placed an order online for other equipment, and the operation was as fast as a tiger. I spent a total of 18,000, and I was finally satisfied.
I was just about to go downstairs for dinner at noon when I received a call from Liu Datou, who wanted to treat me to a drink?
After hesitating for a moment, he went. Although he no longer had to perform as a group performer, after all, he was the one who helped him, otherwise he would not have survived the system. Ding Hui remembered this favor.
What's more, Internet celebrities are just springboards. He will still be an actor honestly in the future. Liu Datou must be extraordinary if he can make a living in Hengdian. Maybe he knows some big directors or stars?
The odds are low, but it's worth the investment.
When he walked into the box, he saw Liu Datou who was already waiting. He greeted him enthusiastically: "Brother, come quickly. I won't go home until I'm drunk today."
Ding Hui was not polite. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Liu Datou picked up a glass of wine and said, "Congratulations, brother, all the hard work has been rewarded!"
Ding Hui smiled and clinked his glasses, then drank it all in one gulp. He was born with a good capacity for drinking, and could easily drink half a pound.
"What are your plans for the future?" Seeing that the atmosphere was in place, Liu Datou put down his wine glass and asked tentatively: "Still staying in Hengdian?"
"Where else can we go?" Ding Hui picked up a mouthful of food and asked, "What do you mean, brother?"
"It's not interesting, I just want to cooperate with my brother." Liu Datou stopped hiding and said honestly: "You are also a sensible person. Internet celebrities may seem to be famous, but it is not easy to realize and make money."
"For example, I have over 100,000 fans of Douyin. Is it true that some merchants are asking me to bring their products to live broadcasts for advertising?"
“What’s the use of this traffic if you don’t make money!”
Ding Hui nodded. This is true. Isn't it just to make money? The creative incentives are just a drizzle after all. Who can guarantee that every click can break a million?
Since Liu Datou was looking for him, he asked curiously: "What connections do you have?"
"Hey, you think too highly of me, Liu Datou, what kind of opportunities can you have, but..."
Liu Datou suddenly changed the subject and said, "Have you ever heard about the Internet University?"
"Internet University?" Ding Hui was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that being able to make movies in the past was a high-level matter, and not a valuable thing that everyone could play.
But since the rise of online platforms, it has completely changed the entire industry structure. Now movies are not just an old calendar that goes to theaters and sells tickets to make money.
"Don't listen to the nonsense comparisons made by many people. Most of the websites are rubbish and you can't watch them. In fact, 80% of the movies in Hengdian ended up being online movies and online dramas. Believe it or not?"
Liu Datou said in a persuasive manner: "You didn't catch up with the good times. In the first 16 years, you invested hundreds of thousands in the Internet University and easily made ten times the profit."
“At that time, a second-rate dealer defrauded more than two million yuan with a PPT!”
“It wasn’t until 2019 that everyone really understood that capital would no longer be taken advantage of and throw money away, and several major platforms also stopped burning money to gain land, and then it stopped.”
Ding Hui listened, after all, Liu Datou is a veteran of the industry. He has experienced the ups and downs of many industries, and he has some say in what he can do today.
The Internet has now replaced television as the mainstream, and the development of online dramas is obviously much better than that of the Internet. If you look at the hot hits in the past few years, you will know that the core lies in the platform-sharing model.
Web dramas can rely on clicks to attract sponsors to place ads, and they can even be directly named or branded. Because of their length, there are many ways to play.
Most online movies are two hours long, and many are only one and a half hours long. Coupled with shoddy scripts and careless actors, the reputation has never been good. At least Ding Hui can't think of a good work that comes out of his mouth.
"Have you heard of Peng Yushu?" Liu Datou saw that Ding Hui was silent and continued: "That is the number one person in the Internet University!"
"I graduated from high school and came to Hengdian. I didn't even learn acting for a day. I suddenly became a big box-office elixir on the Internet. It's not a problem to make a million a month. Do you think I'm awesome or not?"
An impression flashed through Ding Hui's mind, Peng Yu? Is he the one who plays the role of a Taoist priest?
