Chapter 24: Sprout
As a highly professional film and television miscellaneous review website, the origin of [Sprout] is very early, in addition to the development of the old industry of film and television miscellaneous reviews, in 2004, Sprout tried to launch a scoring system.
As the first website in China to try to introduce public ratings, after ten years of development, the budding ratings have been recognized by the entire industry.
The ratings are reliable, which is the first impression many people have of the sprout.
Based on this impression, more and more movie fans and drama fans have begun to choose drama targets through budding ratings.
Pan Qiliang is one of them.
As a customer service specialist for a high-end industrial robot manufacturing company, Pan Qiliang's work is very boring and boring.
said that it is an account agent, but in fact, it is just a customer service who is responsible for answering the phone and receiving emails.
Different from other companies' customer service, as a company that manufactures high-end industrial robots, Pan Qiliang's company's customers are mostly from major physical manufacturing giants.
Generally, this kind of enterprise procurement or cooperation will not be handled by his small customer service, and it is usually taken over by colleagues in the marketing department.
Then the question is, what kind of customer is Pan Qiliang's customer service docking?
Of course, it's a sand sculpture netizen!
Every day, the company receives a group of telephone inquiries from individual users.
It's usually a call from a sand sculpture netizen, and he doesn't buy it, so he asks......
"Your company's robots are so advanced, can you help me with my homework?"
"Sorry, no!"
"Ahem...... I want to ask, is there a robot that can warm the bed? It should be textured, preferably with a voice interaction system, don't make an inflatable fool me! Price is not a problem, I have money!"
"Sorry, no!"
"Why didn't you see your company's official store on Taoda? I don't even send a full discount coupon, how can you still sell things?"
Pan Qiliang: "......"
That's what he does every day.
Probably the company also knew that this group of sand sculpture netizens would not buy high-end industrial robots with a minimum price of 550,000 yuan, but it was not good to ignore these people, so he was set up in this position.
Fortunately, the number of sand sculpture netizens is not large, and he only received 8 harassing calls a day at most.
Usually, Pan Qiliang passes the time by chasing dramas in front of the computer.
You say this is paddling and fishing?
It doesn't exist!
Pan Qiliang's establishment within the company is subordinate to the marketing department. As the name suggests, everyone has gone to run the business, and the only clerks left in the office are basically left.
This group of clerks is also chasing dramas, the eldest brother doesn't say the second brother, hello, I'm good, everyone.
After watching the latest episode of "Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law's Domestic Violence and Cheating Nephew and Daughter-in-law's Infertility", Pan Qiliang has to find a new target for chasing dramas.
The first thing he thought of was to sprout it.
Usually, after entering the bud, select the "Latest Release" category, and then click "Sort by rating", and you can basically find a drama that satisfies him.
It's just that the dramas that came out this time turned out to be all costume dramas......
Pan Qiliang is very disappointed, it's not that he doesn't like costume dramas, he will also chase costume dramas like "The Great Qin Empire", but he is very uninterested in Qing court dramas in the harem competition for favor.
It has nothing to do with the dynasty, and it is completely incomprehensible to this group of women.
It's a good modern day, but it's a good modern day, but it's a bloody wisdom to fight the main palace and finally the junior is on top or something...... I can't see it at all!
Scrolling the mouse wheel, Pan Qiliang decided to skip these dramas with the highest ratings but no appetite for himself at all, and see if there are any urban dramas with slightly lower ratings but good quality below.
Well......
The right hand that slid the mouse wheel froze instantly, and Pan Qiliang looked at "The Fire Boy King" with a score of 8.6 points with a hint of surprise, and forgot what to do for a while.
What happened?
Obviously, the score of watching this drama yesterday has risen from 4.1 to 4.5 points!
Even if there are positive reports recently and there is a good amount of popularity, it won't jump so much in an instant, right?
Pan Qiliang has heard of this drama, and it was originally because of his son.
Panda, his son, is in the fifth grade at a public primary school in Zhonghai.
A few days ago, my son became obsessed with a toy called "yo-yo", and he never left the ball in his hand all day long. When I asked, I found out that it was a toy that appeared in "Fire Boy King".
It is for this reason that he learned about this drama.
Originally, he planned to see what magic this show had, and it could charm his precious son. But when he learned that the budding score of this drama was only 4.1 points, he immediately dispelled this idea.
Bad movie!
All film and television dramas with a budding score of less than 5 points are basically bad movies.
This point is the conclusion reached by countless "Shennong" who have tried poison by themselves.
The budding score of 4.1 dispelled Pan Qiliang's idea of chasing dramas. Now that he suddenly saw the rating of this drama rise, he would naturally be curious.
With a hint of puzzlement, he clicked on the budding comment area of "Fire Boy King".
Only then did he find out that the latest posts were basically 10 points of praise.
"Full marks for Li Fei![10]"
"It's Li Fei, it's not Li Fei! [10]”
"It's Li Fei, don't you read the subtitles?[10]"
"It's good-looking!It's just that yo-yos are too expensive~[10]"
"Zhonghai is a little yo-yo school bully, but I want to lose![10]"
"Cut! I can't even whirlwind and fire, Wang Jiaming, can you shut up?"
This is......
Pan Qiliang was stunned, how does the message in the comment area feel weird?
Clicking on the profile of a user who had just finished rating 10 points, he was stunned in an instant.
Nickname: ✘ Tears de youth ✔
Age: 108 years old
Address: Mars
Signature: Yo-yo is not only a sport, but also an attitude to life!
It's me who loses...
Pan Qiliang is not the only one who can guess where these users come from.
When the ratings of "Fire Boy King" began to rise strangely, more than one person noticed that the number of users who rated it suddenly increased.
The number of ratings, which was originally only one million, rose to more than three million in just a few days.
This also led to the fact that the average score, which was originally only about 4.5, rose to 8.6 in an instant!
Budding users were stunned to find that there were so many minors lurking in the sprout forum, which prides itself on being a niche profession.
The oldest rating account has even been registered for more than 5 years!
Netizens were shocked, but also felt that the film and television "holy land" in their minds had been tarnished.
It's obviously a professional and objective rating website, what kind of mess are children coming to make trouble?
Some people took action spontaneously, even if they hadn't watched "The Fire Boy King", they came to this drama to brush up on 1 point.
The slogan was shouted loudly.
"And sprout a clean environment![1]"
"Refuse to be young! Elementary school students are also eligible to rate movies and TV series?[1]"
"Take a point, elementary school students get out of the bud![1]"
"A bad movie is a bad movie, and I vomited after watching the first episode. [1]”
Why is the minimum score not 0?
It's so uncomfortable.
