Becoming a Global Superstar Starting as an Idol Trainee

Chapter 478: The world is declining, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be

After the champagne was opened, the Haidilao takeout that Chen Minhao asked Chen Qiang to order in advance arrived.

The Haidilao takeaway person not only brought ingredients and toppings, but also brought three induction cookers and a single pot.

A few discerning photographers removed the chairs from the hall and pushed the tables together.

Everyone, regardless of occupation, status, temporary workers or regular employees, all stood around three tables eating hot pot.

"Oh, why is the meat I just laid gone? Leave a piece of meat for me."

"The pot next to us cooked too quickly."

"Damn it, don't take the meat out of our pot."

If you ignore the details of grabbing meat, everyone's atmosphere is very harmonious.

A few days before the collaboration started, the photographer, editor and makeup artist were unsure about Chen Minhao's character.

Although he seems polite, who knows if he is really approachable or just pretending

After a few days of contact, everyone felt that Chen Minhao really didn't have the airs of a big star at all.

Li Weijie decided not to schedule any work today and let everyone relax and celebrate today's good start.

After finishing the hot pot, there is the second show, KTV.

Chen Minhao knew that he had to drink when he went to the KTV. He didn't go there himself, but he handed his credit card to Chen Qiang to let everyone have fun. Today he paid the bill.

When work started the next day, Chen Minhao noticed that everyone's spirits seemed a little sluggish, and several people had asked for leave. Many people looked at Su Yan with two words in their eyes - respect.

Because Chen Minhao's editing strategy allowed "My Concert and Me" to maintain a high degree of discussion on Weibo, Li Weijie was particularly pleased with Chen Minhao.

At noon, Li Weijie took Chen Minhao to eat together.

"The girl named Su Yan in your studio is so awesome!"

As soon as Li Weijie sat down, he opened his lunch box and raised his head and said to Chen Minhao.

"What's wrong?" Chen Minhao asked in confusion.

Li Weijie said with a smile: "Yesterday they went to KTV to drink. There was a young photographer who was interested in her and wanted to chase her. I originally wanted to take advantage of this KTV to talk to her more, but she killed several of us photographers alone. I was so drunk that I asked a young man from Shandong to go to the hospital in the middle of the night to get an IV drip."

Chen Minhao smiled awkwardly and planned to change the topic: "I have no idea about the number of views. What is the approximate level of 17.48 million in 24 hours? I saw that everyone was very happy yesterday."

Li Weijie lit a cigarette and said: "Actually, when it comes to playback volume, we must have a concept, that is, real playback volume and false playback volume."

Chen Minhao nodded, he was very clear about this.

Although high views are not necessarily fake, driven by commercial interests, counterfeiting does exist and has even become an unspoken rule in the industry.

Regarding brushing up, some are organized and large-scale brushing by fans spontaneously, and some are opportunistic producers who spend money to brush up for the sake of good looks.

Boosting views has become a gray industry chain with clearly marked prices. Some video platforms can generate 10,000 views for 50 yuan, and can generate tens of millions of views in a day.

This is just like many movie box office frauds. Some producers are eager for quick success and use false data to create a flashy illusion and create the feeling that variety shows or movies are very popular.

Because in the traditional sense, high broadcast volume and high box office mean a large number of viewers and a high hit index. Then they use fake data to deceive advertising investors and facilitate the fundraising for the next project.

However, advertising investors who have suffered a lot in recent years have also become smarter and have a sharp eye. Therefore, the significance of increasing the number of views has become smaller.

If you can’t fool investors in advertising, you can only fool some fans.

After Li Weijie saw Chen Minhao nodding, he continued: "The number of views of 17.48 million is not particularly high, but if the number of views in a single issue in the early stage is this, the actual number of views in each issue in the later period may exceed 50 million."

"What is the level of 50 million views?" Chen Minhao said.

Li Weijie's face was full of smiles: "For example, "Artist Producer" and "Wonderful Life" that you participated in before can sometimes have a single episode of over 100 million views. If a single episode has 50 million views, it will be the most popular online variety show this year. It’s almost 10-15th place in the ranking. This amount of views is the result of a jump that makes Mango TV angry.”

Chen Minhao asked: "If a variety show can have over 100 million views in a single episode, how many views will they have in 24 hours?"

Li Weijie hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's hard to say. Penguin Video now has a seedling with over 100 million views in a single episode, "Tomorrow's Star". It was broadcast on the same day as us. I heard that the 24-hour playback volume was 37.8 million.”

Chen Minhao sighed and said, "It's twice as much as us."

Chen Minhao originally thought that evil people will be rewarded with evil, and Liang Haoze's show would be popular, but he did not expect that it would be so much higher than "My Concert and Me".

Li Weijie did not see Chen Minhao's disappointment. He couldn't help but said excitedly: "After all, "Tomorrow's Star" has been produced for two seasons, and the lineup of this show is very strong, and some contestants are also well-known. This result is a great influence on "Tomorrow's Star" "Star" is in line with industry expectations, but the playback volume of "My Concert and Me" is higher than industry expectations, so it can be considered a success.

I will secretly reveal a piece of news to you. It has not been officially finalized yet, so you should keep it a secret for now. It’s about advertising investment. The ones who came to me for cooperation before were all small brands. After the playback volume came out yesterday, Coca-Cola, JD.com, and Pinduoduo all came to me for cooperation. "

Chen Minhao looked at Li Weijie who looked excited and thought to himself: "Your requirements are too low. Is this a success?"

Chen Minhao decided to keep his words in his heart first. Even in a production team, everyone's demands are different.

Li Weijie hopes to gain a firm foothold through this program, while Chen Minhao hopes to use this program to take himself one step closer to becoming a global superstar.

Chen Minhao asked Li Weijie for detailed statistical results.

The reason why the statistical results came out slowly yesterday is because the statistical data not only includes the playback volume, but also includes the details of different time periods.

For example, how many people continue to watch in each time period, how many people choose to fast forward, and how many people choose to exit.

Based on this information, Chen Minhao re-read the first issue of "My Concert and Me" based on the barrage.

Chen Minhao discovered a strange phenomenon:

Whenever there is a dispute or heated discussion segment on the show, the number of people who choose to fast forward or exit plummets to almost none. On the contrary, many people will come back to watch it several more times.

Chen Minhao couldn't help but sigh: "The world is deteriorating, and people's hearts are not as good as they used to be. Have their ideological education classes for so many years been in vain?"

After turning off the video, Chen Minhao began to think about how to add some scenes of disputes and heated discussions in the next few issues.
