Chapter 196: Only one episode? I’ll push the update button until it’s worn out!
"God bless, the playback data must be better..."
Jiangcheng Entertainment, in the lounge.
Anna's agent, Sister Yun, sat in front of the computer with her hands clasped together, looking nervous.
Now, an hour has passed since the first episode of the TV series was released. She has been sitting in front of the computer and dared not leave, for fear that something might go wrong.
Anna next to her also held her breath and stared at the computer.
This performance is definitely a bold challenge for her. If she fails, it may even affect her image.
So she wasn't sure it would work.
"Here it comes! The data has been updated!"
fortunately.
The web page didn't keep them waiting long.
With a low call from Sister Yun, the latest data was suddenly refreshed.
Just one glance.
The two saw the nearly two million views and were overjoyed.
"Two million! Two million in just one hour!"
Sister Yun covered her mouth in disbelief, feeling both surprised and excited.
Anna's eyes also trembled. She didn't expect that the response to this TV series would be so good at the beginning. It turned out that she made the right choice to choose this TV series.
But after all, she had seen all kinds of big scenes and quickly calmed down.
"These are just the playback data. In the end, it all depends on the audience's evaluation."
"Indeed, word of mouth is also very important." Sister Yun nodded in agreement, "To be able to achieve such results at the beginning, at least we are already halfway to success."
“That’s what I think.”
Anna looked determined and confident: "And I believe that with the plot of this TV series, it can definitely surpass other movies!"
…
Just as she said.
At this time, "Westworld" has slowly spread on the Internet with its novel setting and brain-burning plot.
Not only the gamer circle, but even the netizens who like to watch the movie were recommended to watch it and came to watch the movie with curiosity.
And at this time.
Inside the major film and television live broadcast rooms.
The first episode has come to an end.
Just as they expected, after countless resets, the bionic robots in the Westworld park finally began to behave abnormally.
The first person to have problems was the heroine Anna's father.
Because of a photo left by a tourist, I discovered the difference in this world.
But when he wanted to tell the heroine about this, the system crashed and he fell into chaos.
The park noticed the anomaly and urgently recalled my father to prepare for scrapping.
Even the female protagonist related to him was called back to check whether there were similar situations to prevent the potential risk of harming tourists.
[Your father whispered something to you, what was it? ]
Inside the park, the heroine whose memory was erased sat in a chair, as if her soul had been taken away, and was being questioned by the maintenance worker.
He asked me not to tell anyone.
A voice without any emotion came out of the heroine's mouth.
[I won't tell anyone else, I promise.]
There was silence in the maintenance room for a moment, and the dull-eyed heroine finally spoke slowly:
He said.
【These brutal pleasures will have brutal ends.】
…
【Do these words mean anything to you? 】
[No, I don’t think so.]
…
Have you ever lied to us?
【No.】
…
【Last question, would you harm any living being? 】
[No, of course not.]
After the conversation, the employee directly cleaned up the heroine's data and only retained the core action data.
In this way.
She will completely forget what happened.
As usual, I will wake up in that familiar bed and repeat the set plot over and over again.
[Are you sure this won't affect her core code? ]
Another employee nearby asked, seeming a little worried that the heroine would have the same problem as his father.
After all, their park is for entertainment of guests, so they must ensure the most basic safety issues and must not allow bionic people to attack tourists.
[Don't worry, Dolores won't do that. ]
[She is the oldest receptionist in the park and has been repaired so many times that she is basically brand new.]
Come on, dear, tell us what you think of your world.
The last sentence was addressed to the heroine.
The originally expressionless heroine suddenly revealed a professional smile when she heard these words.
[This world? ]
[Some people choose to see the ugliness in this world, the disorderly chaos. ]
I choose to see the good.
The answer was exactly the same as at the beginning, without any change.
But when the audience heard it at this moment, coupled with that smile, it felt creepy.
"Awakened, the heroine is definitely awakened!"
"She didn't hide it on purpose, did she?"
"Fuck you! This smile makes my scalp tingle."
“This shooting technique that echoes each other is simply amazing!”
"Is the Omnic Crisis finally coming?"
At this moment, the audience finally understood what the conversation at the beginning of the plot meant.
It turned out that the staff was questioning the heroine when she was undergoing maintenance.
It first appeared once at the beginning to set the stage, and then appeared for the second time now.
Two completely identical conversations, yet they convey completely different messages.
What’s more, the story is not told directly to the audience, but the information is conveyed to the audience through the plot, allowing the audience to think for themselves and integrate into the plot unconsciously. The experience is much better than forcing the setting to be forced!
The exquisite shooting techniques and plot expression made them marvel.
soon.
The conversation in the video is over.
After the scene changed, the heroine appeared in the familiar bed and woke up slowly.
He acted as if nothing had happened and couldn't remember anything that had happened.
Carry the painting box, go downstairs, open the door, say hello to my father...
Every process is exactly the same as at the beginning, as if nothing has changed.
But sharp-eyed viewers still noticed that the father sitting in the chair outside basking in the sun had been replaced by a different person.
But the heroine seemed not to notice and continued to greet him, then went outside and looked into the distance.
"Hiss! Was father replaced and recycled?"
"I didn't even notice that my father had been replaced. It seems my memory has been tampered with again."
"It infiltrates your life by changing your memory. It's terrifying when you think about it!"
"The scariest thing is that I don't even realize it."
This novel and bizarre setting has captured the hearts of science fiction fans and plot enthusiasts, leaving them amazed.
You have to know that this is only the first episode, but it has already portrayed a huge sci-fi background for them.
There are no gorgeous scenes or cool fights.
But it did not affect their love for the TV series at all, and they were deeply attracted by the plot it presented.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out in the picture.
The scene, which should have been exactly the same as at the beginning, suddenly changed.
The heroine, who was looking into the distance, slapped the fly on her neck to death.
The first episode ends here.
Watching the screen suddenly turn black.
The live broadcast room was quiet at first, and then suddenly reacted.
"Fuck! Is this the end?"
"Is the first episode finished so soon?"
"This is too short! I want to see how the androids fight back!"
"Fuck! I'm so fascinated by it, why are you cutting it off?"
"What will happen next? I'm so anxious!"
A tide of comments kept passing through the live broadcast room, and the people who were originally immersed in the exciting plot started to curse loudly.
Especially the blank space at the end where the fly is slapped to death, which is obviously a hint of the subsequent awakening of the bionic man, and also indirectly confirms their guess.
This made them even more eager and eager to know the subsequent plot.
The update request button at the bottom of the playback page was almost broken by them.
no way.
In today's world where young and handsome actors are in vogue, it is not easy to find a TV series or film with profound content.
This "Westworld" not only has an outstanding plot, but its background setting is also completely different from the current stereotyped fairy tales and ancient idol dramas.
The most important thing is its narrative technique.
It has completely subverted the current assembly-line-style film and television content, making people unable to stop watching. The news has swept through various circles like a hurricane.
In less than two hours, a large number of reviews about the TV series have emerged on the Internet.
[Xigua Movie Watching - This is definitely the most amazing TV series I have ever seen. Although it is only one episode, the plot presentation, story setting, character performance, background music, and even scene design are all impeccable. ]
[Xingxing loves watching - What impressed me most was the echo between the two plots. At the beginning, there was a fly crawling on the heroine's face, and then she slapped the fly to death. Only a small detail revealed the changes of the bionic man before and after, and also foreshadowed the plot later. This is great! ]
[Poisonous film review - The biggest advantage of this TV series is that it depicts a huge world background for the audience without any abruptness, and guides the audience to imagine such a colorful world by advancing the plot. Unlike many current film and television works, which start with a direct narration and a blurry background, can you believe that this is just used to promote the game? ]
Yes!
Even these professional film critics, who are known for their nitpicking, have to admit that the start of this TV series is really excellent!
Not just one-sided, but all-round.
Every detail is just right, it is brain-burning but not confusing, and the amount of information is huge but not bloated.
Such a TV series that almost beats most domestic film and television works is actually just used to promote the game!
This is a slap in the face to those who looked down on game promotional videos, and it also makes them see the unstoppable rise of the game industry.
"Hahahaha...Okay! Okay!"
Deafening laughter was heard from inside an entertainment company that participated in the filming of "Westworld".
All the senior executives gathered together and looked at the ever-increasing popularity of the video, feeling extremely happy.
"In just one night, the overall number of followers of our artists involved in the filming nearly doubled. The response to this TV series is beyond our expectations!"
"We still underestimated the potential of the gaming industry, or rather, we underestimated the potential of the world."
"Fortunately, I decided to cooperate with them in the first place to seize the opportunity. Now other entertainment companies are probably getting anxious, right? Haha."
The number of followers doubled overnight!
Even if they are just some third- or fourth-tier artists, this result is extremely terrifying for them.
Even if you participate in those well-known domestic variety shows, you may not be able to achieve such an effect.
Even one of the actors who played the main roles has shown signs of stepping into the second-tier, and the salary offered by the film and television company has increased to hundreds of thousands.
Obviously, they were attracted by the popularity of "Westworld".
After all, this is only the first episode, and it has achieved such results. Needless to say, there will be more to come in the future. I’m afraid it will make many actors famous.
What's more.
This TV series is also starred by the popular young actress Anna.
There is no doubt that Jiangcheng Entertainment will take action and increase resources to help Honghuang with publicity.
As expected.
The next day, news of the explosion of popularity of Westworld came out.
The announcement and hot search about Anna's performance from Jiangcheng Entertainment immediately appeared on the homepage of Weibo, along with a poster image of Anna as half human, half robot, which once again pushed the TV series to the top.
…
"Jiangcheng Entertainment is willing to invest resources."
In the Honghuang studio, Chen Lin raised his eyebrows when he saw this announcement.
He hadn't even invested heavily in promotion yet, but the entertainment companies that cooperated with them had already taken action on their own, which saved them a lot of money.
At the same time, I felt deeply moved.
In the previous life, "Westworld" was at most a niche masterpiece in China, and in fact not many people had seen it.
But it became a hit in this world.
All we can say is that current events shape people, and different worlds should be viewed with different perspectives.
"Jiangcheng Entertainment should be determined to get a first-tier spot this time. What we should be most concerned about now is the reaction of Juying."
"Yeah , given the current situation, they can't just sit there and do nothing, right?"
Chen Lin smiled slightly, this was just the beginning.
