Master of Science and Technology

Chapter 156: Strong wind blows

Views:

On this day, the entire Shenhua Domain, large and small markets, suddenly became extremely deserted. Only in front of the Yuqing Cinema can be said to be crowded, as densely packed as a wet market. And these people were talking constantly, but their movements were extremely consistent. They all raised their heads and stared at the screen above the door of Yuqing Cinema. What was playing on the screen was the trailer of the new film, which was also a promotional video that was thousands of miles away.

These people are not just watching the fun, but holding movie tickets, waiting to enter the venue to watch new movies. Of course, only a small number of people may enter the first game, and more people will have to wait for subsequent games.

Soon, the door of Yuqing Cinema opened, and tickets began to be checked in for the premiere of the new film. I saw the dense crowd outside, rushing forward like a tide. Fortunately, everyone present was a cultivator, so there would not be any stampede. Moreover, after two years of subtle training, the monks have become accustomed to ticket admission and queuing to check in.

Therefore, although there are many people and it seems crowded and chaotic, the speed of ticket check-in is actually pretty good. Soon, a group of people disappeared into the theater, and the people behind them continued to look up at the trailer on the screen with a bit of regret, which they had watched countless times.

Besides, in the theater, people who entered the theater checked their movie tickets and quickly found their seats. Those who can buy premiere tickets can be said to be loyal viewers of the movie. Naturally, they are already familiar with these rules in the cinema. After everyone sat down, the lights in the theater gradually dimmed, the big screen in front lit up, and everyone's comments suddenly disappeared.

As for this film used to promote Qianli Zhuanshen, Ye Zan did not really make it as an advertising film. Although the ascetics in this world may not have reached the point of hating advertising, it does not mean that they do not have basic judgment. Moreover, the information bombardment of advertisements is enough if Tianbaozong does it. Yuqing Cinema originally uses new movies to attract people, so it would be too shameless to show people straightforward advertisements.

This new film is a script produced by Ye Zan based on some fantasy novels about the technological world, adding the ancient background of this world, and with the help of Singularity Brain. All in all, it is an Eastern fantasy film that takes part in famous events from the ancient times from the perspective of a small person. Of course, since it is a movie and the minor character is still the protagonist, he must naturally play a decisive role in the incident, otherwise how can it be enjoyable.

However, in the lives of the characters in the film, Ye Zan joins Qianli Chuanshen. Moreover, many developments in the plot also rely on various functions in Thousand Miles of Legend. For example, the protagonist saw a live broadcast that no one paid attention to through Qianli Chuanshen's online live broadcast platform, but learned the secret technique of saving life from that live broadcast as a trump card. Also, the protagonist has low qualifications and therefore is not taken seriously by the sect, but through an online chat application, he gets to know a certain legendary figure in the sect.

At the same time, Ye Zan also added a plot similar to online dating into the film, allowing the male protagonist to meet the heroine who will become his Taoist companion through a chat application. Originally, from a purely artistic point of view, it would have been better if the heroine appeared in a magical way, so that the two of them would have a tangled love scene later on. However, this kind of thing is likely to attract criticism from those righteous old stubborns, which can easily lead the topic astray. Therefore, Ye Zan can only give up a little bit of art. After all, this film is essentially to promote Qianli Zhuanshen.

In short, in this film, although there is no overt hawking of the Thousand Miles of God, and there is no shouting "Nine-nine-eight, eight stars and eight diamonds" like the TV commercials, the Thousand Miles of God is a key prop to connect the drama. In fact, similar methods are not new in the technology world. They are just replacing the things used by the characters in the film with unique brands. For example, if a character wants to use a car, he should use a specific brand of car, a specific brand of watch, a specific brand of mobile phone, etc. This is called product placement.

However, general product placement is actually brand placement, and the role of props will not affect the plot. In other words, for the same car, there is basically no difference between this brand and that brand. The advantage of this is that when soliciting advertising sponsorship, you have a wider range of choices to choose from. If this company is unwilling to do this advertisement, then find another company. Anyway, it is just a change of brand of props.

What Ye Zan wants to do is not brand advertising. After all, except for him, no one in the Shenhua Realm can create this Thousand Miles of Life. He hoped that someone could refine it. Anyway, what really made the most money was the various applications inside. It's a pity that something as basic as the Thousand Miles of Sound has already been difficult for people in this world to refine, let alone the intelligent Thousand Miles of Sound.

What Ye Zan wants to use the film to promote is the Thousand Miles of God, and naturally he wants to reflect the various magical features of Thousand Miles of God in the film as much as possible. Only in this way can we attract people's attention to the maximum extent. People will know what this Thousand Miles of God is and what magical functions it has.

Soon, the film began, first of all, showing the historical background of the film through some people and events that are symbolic of the times. Then, the perspective shifts to the sect where the protagonist lives, and the plot begins to unfold based on the protagonist's daily life. It’s very cliche. The protagonist is despised or even bullied by his classmates due to his qualifications. This is what is commonly said to be suppressed first and then promoted. Then, in Thousand Miles of Legend, the protagonist confides in the heroine he just met through a chat application, and learns a certain secret technique through the live broadcast platform.

In the sect competition, the protagonist relied on the secret skills he learned and won the first place beyond everyone's expectations. However, getting the first place does not mean that the protagonist will be vigorously cultivated by the sect from the beginning. After all, the protagonist only relied on secret techniques to win, and his own qualifications were still not as good as those of the genius disciples he defeated.

Next, the protagonist was framed, but with the powerful audio and video shooting function, he proved his innocence in front of the elders of the sect. This point is actually not very logical. After all, the setting of the film is that Qianli Chuanshen has become popular. Others will naturally understand Qianli Chuanshen's audio and video shooting functions. How could the villain ignore this? However, there are always some illogical things in movies. Anyway, it is to introduce Qianli Zhenshen, and this small flaw will not make the audience care too much.

In fact, the reaction of the movie audience was indeed the same. After seeing the protagonist prove his innocence with the powerful audio and video shooting function, in addition to feeling sulky, more people started talking in surprise. .

"Look, I finally know how this video was made. It must have been using something called Thousand Miles of Legends." Someone said to the person next to him in a low voice.

"That's just a video. The magical weapon of Qianli Chuanshen was obviously compiled based on Qianli Chuanyin. Even the name is only one word different." Another person said with some disdain.

After these two years of operation, the monks in this world already know what movies are, and know that many things in movies are not true. However, Yuqing Cinema is only responsible for broadcasting, and the production of the film is all done by Ye Zan, so the monks still don't know how the film was shot.

"There's only one word missing in the name, but the functions are really different. I really wish I could have that kind of ability to travel far and wide." Someone said with envy.

"Yes, that boy has been chatting with Fairy Zixia for several months, and he didn't know that the person he was chatting with was a female cultivator. It's really interesting." The person next to him said with a smile.

"Isn't this just like using Qianli Telecommunications to dial and send messages at will, except that chatting this way seems more convenient." Another person continued.

Using Qianli Transmission to dial numbers at will is a way of making friends that has just become popular in the Shenhua Domain. When the technology world first became popular with telephones, there were similar gameplays, but they didn’t become popular for long. After all, this kind of gameplay will often become harassment and make the person who receives the call very annoying. The same is true in the Shenhua Realm. Who knows whether a call will be made to a powerful person from a certain sect, or to a person from the devil's path. Therefore, compared to this risky method, Qianli Chuanshen's chat application is obviously more convenient and superior.

"I see, that live broadcast is interesting. That guy actually used his secret skills to live broadcast because there were too few people following him. I really don't know if his master would be mad at him if he knew about it! "

"I think the forum is better. It's just like a conference on Taoism. You can also ask people for advice. That kid has such poor qualifications, but he asked so many ways to improve his qualifications in the forum, and he doesn't know whether those methods are real. 's fake."

"Of course it can't be true! However, it would be nice if we could have a forum like this to exchange ideas on spiritual practice."

As the plot of the film develops, various functions of Qianli Zhenshen are also displayed, and each function can attract a lot of discussion from the audience. Step by step, although the audience was attracted by the plot, they also had a lot of interest in the thousand-mile journey.

"I want it so much!"

"Who wouldn't want it? It's a pity that it's all fictitious. How could there be such a magic weapon in reality?"

The film ended, and everyone was immersed in the story described in the film and couldn't extricate themselves. However, in the bottom of everyone's heart, an uncontrollable thought came up: I really wish there was such a teleportation!

And at this moment, an image appeared on the big screen again, this time it was a special commercial that was astonishingly realistic.

"Are you satisfied with just talking on the phone?"

After a question, edited video clips appeared on the screen, all of which were scenes from the film using the teleportation method.

"Be like him and show yourself!"

"Be like him and make friends!"

"Like him, know what you don't know!"

"What are you waiting for? Throw away that simple Thousand Miles Sound Transmission!"

“Thousands of miles away, it’s officially launched. All Tianbaozong’s specialty stores will be on sale at the same time!”

The commercial was not long, but after the commercial ended, the audience in the theater still stared at the screen, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

It turns out that the Thousand Miles of Legend is not a fiction, but something that is really going to be sold! The whole theater was silent for a moment. The standard of the advertisement is not high, but everyone has just been induced by the film, and their hearts are full of yearning for the reality of thousands of miles. At this time, they suddenly knew that they really had a chance to achieve the goal, which was enough to change the advertising effect from quantitative to qualitative.

Suddenly, someone stood up from his seat and ran towards the exit of the theater without saying a word. And this person's behavior suddenly woke up the others. Everyone reacted immediately and rushed towards the exit of the theater like a tide.

The door of the theater opened, and the audience for the second show was about to check in and check in. However, they saw the people inside who had watched the first show pouring out like crazy. They were all shocked.

What's going on? Is there something scary inside? Why are all these people who watched the first movie rushing out as if they are running for their lives

"Fellow Taoist, what do you think of the video? Is it good?" Someone stopped him and asked curiously.

However, the other party seemed extremely impatient and said unceremoniously: "Don't stand in my way. If you want to know what's going on, why don't you just go and see it yourself!"

"Hey, why are you..." Before the man could finish his words, the other party had already thrown him away and ran in one direction of the market.

Besides, at Tianbaozong, the counters of various stores and newly opened specialty stores have been prepared for a long time.

In order to avoid leaking the news, although Tianbaozong had already put out all the goods, the time for putting the goods on the shelves was fixed. Only after receiving notification can the shopkeepers of each store open the ban and take out the goods and put them on the shelves for sale. Therefore, neither the shopkeeper nor the clerk knows what exactly they are selling.

As the premiere of the new film ended like that of Yuqing Cinema, the shopkeepers of Tianbao Sect finally received the notice from the sect and found a way to open the ban.

"What on earth is it? It's so mysterious!" Tianbao Sect's approach obviously made many shopkeepers feel a little dissatisfied.

After all, for these shopkeepers, the traditional way of selling products is to first understand the products and then formulate a sales plan. At the very least, when people come to buy something and ask you how it is, you should always tell them one thing or two.

But this time, the shopkeepers didn't know what they were going to sell in advance. If customers wanted to ask questions, they would be really blind.
