Go to Weibo to grab prizes
Yan Ru stared blankly at her senior classmate Ru Ke, feeling cheated.
Could it be that I was tricked into coming to this den of thieves
Could it be that the senior schoolmate has joined a fraud gang
Yan Ru looked around, trying to see if there was any trick.
Seeing that Yan Ru didn't move, Ru used her own Weibo account on her phone to post several meaningless messages in the comment section of Wang Qian's Weibo. She looked up at Yan Ru and urged her, "Hurry up, the lottery time is almost up. According to preliminary estimates, at least millions of people are competing for it. Hurry up and help me grab it. If you win, I will give you a reward."
Yan Ru came to her senses, took out her phone and asked, "What did you steal? Who gave it to you? Senior, are you chasing after a star?"
Yan Ru was a little disappointed.
The senior sister in my impression is not a star chaser. She is afraid of everyone, does not submit to anyone, and is absolutely confident...
Even if he is a superstar, he is just like that in Ru Ke's eyes.
Ru Ke smiled and said, "I don't chase stars, I only know how to defeat stars. However, I still like his calligraphy, especially the one he wrote on the stage last night: Tian Jing Sha."
Swish, swish, swish!
Ru Ke began to show off her hand speed and spoke continuously.
Yan Ru also knew what was going on immediately: "Is it Wang Qian?"
Ru Ke nodded without saying anything, staring at the screen, and urged: "Hurry up, the time is almost up, there are only a few dozen seconds left."
Yan Ru had already entered Wang Qian's Weibo page and saw the news that Wang Qian was giving away something. Her eyes lit up immediately: "So if I win the prize, can I keep it for myself?"
Yan Ru watched every episode of this year's Voice of China, watching the independent singers and students from the music academy go on stage to show their strength and talent, attracting huge attention, achieving success, and being called the strongest generation of Voice of China contestants in the past ten years. She was eager to show herself.
That's why she was fooled by Ru Ke's words.
Because, in her heart, she actually wanted to do something, all she needed was someone to seduce her.
So, as soon as Ru Ke called, she came immediately.
In this season of The Voice of China, she admires two contestants the most. The first one is definitely Wang Qian, and the second one is Chen Xiaowen!
She listens to every song of Wang Qian. For this purpose, she even registered an account on Qianqian Jingting and recharged her account to become a paid member.
Chen Xiaowen is her junior, and her appearance, talent and ability are all top-notch. She also likes the songs she composes very much.
but…
She is not a star chaser.
She simply likes Wang Qian's works and doesn't pay much attention to Wang Qian personally. She just watches Wang Qian's performances on stage and listens to Wang Qian's songs.
Of course, I also like Wang Qian’s literary works.
As a literary young woman, I have almost no resistance to excellent literary works.
At this moment, she saw that Wang Qian was actually going to give away his calligraphy works.
Of course Yan Ru wants it too!
Ru Ke glanced at Yan Ru and said, "If you want it, keep it, provided you can win the prize."
Yan Ru said "oh" and quickly started leaving messages in Wang Qian's Weibo area. There were only a dozen seconds left before the lottery.
The two of them began to participate in Wang Qian's lottery activity with full concentration.
…
Capital city!
Inside a courtyard.
Xue Man used her father's account and kept leaving messages under Wang Qian's Weibo.
Xue Zhenguo was reading a book nearby and whispered, "If you win, give me the things."
Xue Man: "Why? I worked hard for it!"
Xue Zhenguo said confidently: "You are my only daughter. When I die, everything will be yours."
Xue Man was stunned. It seemed to be the truth.
But why
Xue Man quickly gathered her thoughts and had no time to reason with her father. She immediately plunged into the lottery and left three messages in one second.
…
West Lake City.
On the Zhejiang University campus.
Bai Hua, Tang Hepeng, and Lu Chunhu gathered together.
Originally, the three of them were going to discuss poetry and calligraphy in the morning, and the discussion was going quite pleasantly, but then they saw Wang Qian’s Weibo message.
At this moment, the three of them began to leave messages on their mobile phones and compete for prizes.
Lu Chunhu said softly: "Professor Wang's calligraphy works have already reached the threshold of a master and are very valuable for collection. If I could get a piece, I would definitely collect it and leave it to my grandchildren. In a few hundred years, it might become a national treasure."
Tang Hepeng: "Haven't you already collected more than a dozen works by contemporary calligraphy masters? You have collected works by all the calligraphy masters who are still alive. Aren't they enough for you to pass down to your family?"
As one of the representative figures in the calligraphy circle of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Lu Chunhu has some status in the domestic calligraphy circle. Therefore, he has to see the works of all calligraphy masters. Although he himself is not a master yet, he has touched the threshold of masters. He has the opportunity to communicate with those masters and intends to collect their works.
Lu Chunhu shook his head: "That's different. Professor Wang is the only master calligrapher who has created a new calligraphy font in hundreds of years. The meaning he represents is different. In terms of the significance of calligraphy alone, even Zheng Qiao, a great calligrapher from the Qing Dynasty two hundred years ago, cannot compare to Wang Qian."
Tang Hepeng and Bai Hua both looked at Lu Chunhu in surprise.
Because this evaluation is too high.
Zheng Qiao is one of the most famous calligraphers in the past three hundred years. His calligraphy works have become national collections and have been sold at international auctions for a sky-high price of over 30 million yuan. However, that was just a family letter of his and it was not a real calligraphy work, but it was sold at such a high price.
Lu Chunhu commented that Wang Qian's status in the field of calligraphy is even higher than Zheng Qiao's.
Definitely a super high rating.
If this gets out, it will definitely cause a war of words in the literary and calligraphy circles.
Tang Hepeng said softly: "I just want to collect a piece of Professor Wang's calligraphy. I don't think much about the other things. It doesn't matter whether it is valuable or not."
Bai Hua also nodded: "Me too, I just like Professor Wang's calligraphy!"
The time is approaching.
All three of them remained silent, with focused expressions, and quickly operated their phones to speak and participate in the lottery.
…
Mountain city.
Xiao Dongcheng called a few friends to leave messages under Wang Qian’s Weibo to participate in the lucky draw.
A young man asked, "Dong Cheng, do you also like Wang Qian's calligraphy? I heard that his calligraphy is of a very high standard. Is that true?"
Xiao Dongcheng responded softly: "It is real and has great collection value. However, I stole it as a gift for my sister."
When they heard Xiao Dongcheng mention his sister Xiao Dongmei, their eyes lit up.
Xiao Dongmei is a legend in their circle.
A woman asked, "Does your sister like Wang Qian's calligraphy?"
Xiao Dongcheng nodded: "Well, my sister has been practicing Wang Qian's calligraphy recently, and she has already mastered it. I want to get her an original copy of Wang Qian's calligraphy as a gift. I think she will like it."
Several people started to grab it with all their might.
If they could get it, they would have the chance to meet Xiao Dongmei.
Meeting this legendary goddess in the mountain city's literary circle is enough for them to brag about it.
…
Liao Yongjiang was discussing the next publicity plan for Liu Shengnan with several assistants in the office.
The phone suddenly rang.
It’s Liu Shengnan calling.
Liao Yongjiang quickly picked up the phone and answered: "Shengnan, what's going on?"
Liu Shengnan quickly said, "Have you seen Wang Qian's Weibo?"
Liao Yongjiang: "Of course I have seen it. Wang Qian's popularity has exploded. The activity of giving away calligraphy works by lucky draw has even become the most popular one, suppressing the hype of the two major groups. It's awesome!"
At this moment, Liao Yongjiang truly felt Wang Qian's appeal.
The fan activity level is simply the best in the circle.
Liu Shengnan: "I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about his lucky draw."
Liao Yongjiang: "Well, I know. It's about giving away calligraphy on time. There are three pieces in total. Shengnan, do you mean that we should also have a similar event? Give fans a chance to draw prizes and give away gifts?"
Liu Shengnan: "No, I want you to arrange for someone to participate in the lottery, try to win the prize, and bring me a piece of calligraphy. I want it."
Forehead!
Liao Yongjiang didn't expect Liu Shengnan to have such a request, and immediately asked: "What if you don't win? I looked and estimated that at least two to three million people participated in the lottery, maybe more. The number of messages exceeded tens of millions, which slowed down the entire Weibo official server a lot. The topic's popularity value exceeded the combined value of all the hot topics behind it."
“The probability of winning is very low, almost impossible to win!”
Liao Yongjiang felt that there was no possibility of winning the prize.
Liu Shengnan: "You can try it. It would be best if you win the prize. If you don't, you can find a way to contact the winner and buy the prize. You can decide the price within 500,000 yuan. If it exceeds that, just call me."
Liao Yongjiang felt that he was full of question marks at the moment: "Shengnan, it's just a piece of calligraphy by Wang Qian. It doesn't cost so much, right? A few thousand or tens of thousands of yuan at most. Don't worry, I have some connections in the circle. I will help you get what you want."
Liu Shengnan: "Okay, I'll leave it to you. I'll get busy now."
After saying that, Liu Shengnan hung up the phone.
She was busy making music and didn't want to be distracted by other things, so when she heard that Wang Qian was giving out calligraphy prizes, she contacted her agent to arrange it. She just wanted the result.
Liao Yongjiang took immediate action, notified the company's boss, and then mobilized everyone in the company to participate in the lottery under Wang Qian's Weibo.
If you hand in the prize you won, the company will give you a bonus of 5,000 yuan directly.
No...
Then Liao Yongjiang can only contact the winners to buy the prizes.
Moreover, he has now started to implement the second plan and began to contact some online studios to prepare for the purchase of prizes.
…
Wang Qian himself didn't expect that just sending three calligraphy works would cause such a huge sensation on Weibo
Seeing countless speeches every second.
In just over ten minutes, the number of new messages exceeded 20 million.
The vast majority of them are meaningless messages sent just to participate in the lottery. In order to increase the speed and number of their speeches, many of them are just a few words, or even one or two words, so as to increase their chances of winning!
Qin Xuerong lay on Wang Qian's back, put his arms around Wang Qian's neck, and laughed softly, "See? Everyone wants your prize."
Wang Qian nodded, looking at the messages flashing on the screen: "Yeah!"
When Qin Xuerong opened the Weibo popularity ranking list, Wang Qian’s Weibo popularity value far exceeded the sum of the second to tenth places!
And at this time.
Time is up.
Arrive on time.
Wang Qian set up the system to automatically draw the lottery in advance, so it would start on time.
The system immediately started the spontaneous lottery.
One second later, it's over!
At this second, Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong could clearly feel that the Weibo page was stuck. The mouse sliding on the page stopped and it took two seconds to recover.
Then, after this second.
Quickly returned to normal.
After continuous strengthening in recent years, Weibo's servers are no longer like they were a few years ago when a few big news stories could cause the servers to crash.
In the past two years, Weibo's servers have never been stuck no matter what super topics they encounter, and a lot of money has been spent on server upgrades.
And at this moment.
One of Wang Qian's lucky draws actually caused Weibo's server to lag significantly.
The truth is, there are too many people speaking in this second.
The number of new messages displayed by Wang Qian increased by more than 12 million within this second.
Even if we assume that each person left an average of three messages, there were more than four million people who participated in the lottery.
Many people certainly cannot speak three times per second, so the number of participants may be over four million.
It’s not cumulative.
It exploded instantly, so it was extremely terrifying.
As Wang Qian said before, when the popularity is high, the number of messages accumulated over a few hours can reach millions.
But that’s a cumulative amount of several hours!
And now, on Wang Qian’s Weibo, the number of comments in one second exceeds tens of millions.
This is definitely the first one Weibo has ever encountered.
Among the three draws.
The first time is over.
Wang Qian can see the winning ID here!
It is the ID of a world named Li Xiang!
Wang Qian immediately announced it on Weibo: "Congratulations to the kid with the ID: Li Xiang's World for winning the prize. I have contacted you backstage. Please reply to me immediately and give me the calligraphy you want and your address. I will send it out before this afternoon!"
Click to send.
As soon as it was posted, it instantly received hundreds of thousands of likes and reposts, as well as countless comments.
"Woo, woo, woo, is this the end? Why wasn't I the winner?"
"Li Xiang's world? Please contact me, please. I want to buy your prize. The price is negotiable. Please be sure to contact me!"
"I found three friends to leave messages together, but I still didn't win the prize, wuwuwu..."
"I also want to buy the prizes in Li Xiang's World. Please contact me."
"Professor Wang, can you give me a few more? There are so few, I'm sure I won't win."
"Oh my god, so many people are trying to get it? Weibo just froze. Did you feel it? I haven't felt Weibo freeze for three or four years. This time, Professor Wang did it. He froze the Weibo server by himself. Awesome!"
"Are so many people interested in calligraphy works now? Are there millions of people scrambling for them?"
"That's right. Since when did everyone start liking calligraphy? Aren't they all chasing after celebrities and idols? Why are so many people vying for Professor Wang's calligraphy?"
"I thought there wouldn't be many people trying to grab it, but Weibo just froze, which scared me."
"Li Xiang's world, within one minute, I want all the information about this person."
…
Li Xiang’s World, this Weibo ID has become popular on Weibo at the moment.
He was originally just an ordinary person with only a few dozen followers, who might be his relatives and friends, and he posted very few messages on Weibo.
However, now, within just a few seconds, more than 100,000 people came to follow, and many people left comments below.
"Li Xiang, I want to buy this calligraphy work by Professor Wang. Please name a price."
"Li Xiang, contact me..."
"Li Xiang, I want to buy this calligraphy. If you are interested in selling it, please don't ask Professor Wang first. I want to tell Professor Wang in person about the work I want. Please give me a price. I will buy it no matter how much it is."
…
Li Xiang is indeed an ordinary person.
She was just an elementary school teacher. She had graduated from a normal school less than three years ago and was quietly working as a Chinese teacher in the third grade of elementary school.
My biggest hobby is listening to music and learning music knowledge. Occasionally, I will sing to students in class or lead students to sing together.
Before, she sang the most old songs that she liked in the past, and she also taught her students to sing these songs.
Recently, the songs she sings the most are all those by Wang Qian!
She also used the extra time after class to interact with students, sing with them, and teach them Wang Qian's songs.
He is considered a die-hard fan of Wang Qian.
So, she occasionally pays attention to Wang Qian’s Weibo updates.
When Wang Qian wanted to give away a piece of calligraphy, she was the first to get involved.
However, she did not call her friends or mobilize students. She just quietly browsed Weibo and participated in the lottery.
She never dreamed that she would be chosen!
It was just the break time.
She stood in her office and felt like the happiest person in the world.
I looked at the Weibo messages on my phone and smiled foolishly for a while.
After seeing Wang Qian say on Weibo that he had won the prize, Li Xiang really wanted to announce to all the teachers and students in the school that he was a lucky person.
But she wouldn't do that.
Because, as a teacher, she has to be a role model.
With trembling fingers, Li Xiang quickly replied to the message sent by Wang Qian in the background: "Thank you, Professor Wang, I want a flowering tree, is that ok?"
This modern poem is Li Xiang's favorite among all Wang Qian's works. Without hesitation, he ordered the calligraphy work of this modern poem.
Wang Qian also quickly responded: "Of course! What's the mailing address?"
Li Xiang immediately sent his address and contact information to Wang Qian, and finally thanked him solemnly: "Thank you Professor Wang for the prize, I will treasure it well."
Wang Qian: "I want to thank you for your support."
After that, Li Xiang didn't interact much with Wang Qian.
Because she knew that Wang Qian must be very busy and didn't have time to interact with her.
Support, don't disturb.
This is Li Xiang’s code of conduct.
Wang Qian was the first celebrity she liked.
She didn't go around telling people that she liked Wang Qian or anything like that, and she didn't tell her students about it.
She just sang Wang Qian's works, occasionally paid attention to Wang Qian's updates, and watched Wang Qian's performances on time.
That is enough.
Now, I have received the calligraphy prize from Wang Qian.
It’s a pleasant surprise!
Li Xiang was thinking about whether to hang the calligraphy in his office or in the study at home after getting it.
Then, she entered her Weibo page again and found that her Weibo had exploded.
Just a few minutes.
The number of her followers skyrocketed from a few dozen to more than 300,000.
The number of messages has increased by one million.
There are countless messages in the background requesting contact.
All of the same.
All of them were requests to buy Wang Qian's calligraphy works from her.
Li Xiang only took a quick look at a few of them, and then he said publicly on Weibo with a firm look: "Please don't come to me again. I will not sell Professor Wang's works. I will keep them well for myself."
Sent it out.
but…
The background messages are still coming in, although much less.
But those who are still in contact are the ones who want it the most and are the most sincere.
Look at those numbers.
Li Xiang was terrified.
"Li Xiang, I'm a loyal fan of Wang Qian and I really want this work. Can you sell it to me? I can offer a maximum price of 10,000 yuan."
"Li Xiang, for 30,000 yuan, can you sell me Wang Qian's calligraphy?"
"Li Xiang, I'll give you 50,000 yuan, please sell the calligraphy to me."
"Li Xiang, one hundred thousand. I'll give you one hundred thousand and you leave the calligraphy to me. I'm sincere. If you're not satisfied with the price, we can still negotiate."
…
Li Xiang's eyes widened. He couldn't imagine it at all.
Why are Wang Qian's calligraphy works so popular
Why is the price so high
Do these people want it so much
I saw someone behind me offered a super high price of 200,000.
Li Xiang's heart was shaken.
This price is enough for a down payment on a house in the city where she works.
Could it be that Wang Qian’s calligraphy works have become collectibles
Or because of something else
After Li Xiang hesitated for a moment, he put aside those doubts and decided to stay.
Because she is not short of money. Her parents are both working and have a house to live in. She is an only child and has never lacked money since she was a child. Being a teacher is also her favorite career.
It can be said that I live a happy life every day.
so.
She thought about it for a moment, and then refused again: "Please don't offer me any more money. I won't sell it. I also like Professor Wang's calligraphy works very much. I decided to keep them for my own collection, so please don't send me any more messages."
Send again.
Now, the number of people contacting her decreased again.
However, there are still quite a few, and the bids are higher than before.
Reached an exaggerated 300,000...
Li Xiang simply ignored it and packed up his textbooks and lesson plans and walked towards the classroom to prepare for class.
…
West Lake City.
Sun Jing kept sending messages to Li Xiang, and the price reached 50,000. Finally, she gave up and said to Chen Xiaowen, "She clearly said she didn't want to sell it. It seems she is a loyal fan of Wang Qian."
Chen Xiaowen shook her head regretfully: "What a pity, I didn't get it."
Sun Jing looked at Chen Xiaowen and said seriously, "If you really want it, there are two more prizes at the back. I will find a way to get one back for you!"
Chen Xiaowen smiled and said, "Of course I want it. The first time I saw Professor Wang give a lecture, I knew that he was very good at calligraphy. Unfortunately, I have never been able to bring myself to ask for a piece of calligraphy. I always feel like I can't bring myself to ask for it."
Sun Jing assured: "Then I will definitely get one back for you!"
Chen Xiaowen: "Thank you, Sister Sun, but don't force yourself. It's best if you have one, but it doesn't matter if you don't have one. It's not essential. Next time I perform on the same stage with Professor Wang, I'll find a chance to ask him for one."
Sun Jing is now trying her best to build a relationship with Chen Xiaowen, so she will definitely try her best to buy a pair for Chen Xiaowen!
Winning a prize
I witnessed the power of Weibo lag during my first lottery draw.
Sun Jing didn't even expect to win the prize.
Millions of people participated.
Why do you think you can win
She was ready to spend a lot of money to buy it.
…
Liao Yongjiang also called Liu Shengnan right away: "Shengnan, I didn't buy it."
Liu Shengnan: "Why? The price is too high? Didn't I tell you to call me if it's over 500,000? I really want a piece of Wang Qian's calligraphy."
Liao Yongjiang: "No, I just offered her a price of 100,000, and then she directly and publicly rejected it and made it clear that she would not sell it. There was nothing I could do."
Liu Shengnan also fell silent.
It seems that I have met a loyal fan of Wang Qian.
If he wasn't a die-hard fan, he definitely wouldn't have refused so firmly in the face of hundreds of thousands of people!
Liu Shengnan immediately said, "Then you continue to focus on the next two prizes. I don't care. No matter how much money it is this time, even if it's millions, I want a calligraphy piece to hang in my recording studio."
Liao Yongjiang: "Okay, I will definitely help you with it."
…
Magic City.
Li Qingyao was also using her trumpet to type to Li Xiang: "One hundred thousand, how about that?"
No reply!
Li Qingyao typed again: "Two hundred thousand, give me a chance to make a request."
No reply.
Li Qingyao's eyes flashed with excitement, and she typed again: "Three hundred thousand. I am a loyal fan of Professor Wang. I really want an authentic piece of his calligraphy. Please help me and give it to me!"
Still no reply.
Then, Li Qingyao saw Li Xiang’s public statement on Weibo.
Li Qingyao felt helpless for a moment and took a sip of tea in frustration.
…
A lucky draw.
The entire Weibo was in an uproar.
Such a large flow of traffic.
Such great heat.
Those big Vs and self-media who didn't want to participate had to join in to get some popularity and traffic.
This is all money!
so.
Wang Qian's popularity has risen again.
but…
Wang Qian didn't pay too much attention to it.
After contacting Li Xiang, Wang Qian wrote down Li Xiang's address.
Then, he went to the Voice of China page on YouTube again.
Watched my own performance video!
Unexpectedly.
For a while.
The number of views on his performance video on YouTube has skyrocketed again.
