Chapter 734: Overlook
Atlanta, Georgia.
In an office building, Adrian, who had lunch, returned to the office, sat in front of the computer and watched the news.
Knowing this, he wouldn't have uploaded that video in the first place.
Although it was quickly deleted, in that short period of time, the video has quickly spread across the United States through Netflix sharing.
In the past month, the residents of the community, including his parents, have been going crazy.
Uncle Black is lounging around the neighborhood all day long, and he protests at every turn, can he not be crazy?
Isn't Atlanta black and white? What are the police doing when people from the south invade neighborhoods in the north? If this continues, will Atlanta still be Atlanta?
Adrian regretted his impulsiveness at the beginning, which resulted in asking for trouble.
A short video has caused turmoil throughout Atlanta.
Fortunately, I recently found some good-looking ones, otherwise I would have to be annoyed by the black uncles when I got home from work.
Adrian looked at the recent news of the Black Uncles, they were still making trouble, and Atlanta didn't know when it would be quiet.
He yawned, felt sleepy, and stayed up late at the computer for two nights in a row, a little unable to hold on.
The company has a lunch break, and it will not be left because of the noon break, Adrian simply lies on the table, ready to squint for a while.
"Hey, Ed!" Someone suddenly called out to him, "Asleep?"
Adrian looked up and saw that it was his colleague Edwards, who had a very good relationship.
"Something?" he asked.
Edwards pointed to his face, "What's wrong with you for the past two days? ”
Adrian rubbed his hazy sleepy eyes and said, "I haven't slept well in the past two days of staying up late to catch up on dramas." ”
"Bought a new DVD?" Edwards wondered, "What kind of drama can have such a big charm?"
Adrian shook his head: "It's not a DVD, Netflix you know, right?"
Edwards hurriedly said: "Although I don't use it, many people around me use Netflix to share. He leaned closer and said mysteriously: "I'll tell you a secret, I've heard that the recent bad things that happened to the Black Uncles in Atlanta were caused by someone taking a video and uploading it to Netflix to share." ”
In an instant, Adrian's face was extraordinarily exciting.
"What's wrong?" Edwards asked, looking at him.
"It's okay, it's okay. Adrian hurriedly changed the topic: "Netflix has recently launched a movie and TV series viewing function, and two new dramas have been released, which are particularly good-looking. ”
Edwards wondered: "The new drama, even if it's exciting, won't you stay up late?" ”
Adrian explained: "No. Netflix's online streaming model is completely different from that of TV stations, where they release all the episodes of a season at once. You don't know, the show is so exciting, you can't stop at all, it's too enjoyable to watch it all at once. ”
Edwards was full of questions: "And this new show premiere mode?"
Adrian took out his Motorola smartphone, opened the Netflix APP, found two new dramas, and ordered them to Edwards one after another: "That's it." ”
Edwards saw clearly, one is called "Prison Break" and the other is called "Survival in the Wilderness", both of which have multiple episodes.
"Is it pretty?" he asked.
Adrian pointed to his dark circles: "They are proof. ”
Then he said a lot of flattery.
Edwards couldn't help but say, "I'll take a look when I get back from work." ”
"It's not free, there's a fee. Adrian deliberately reminded: "There is a monthly fee, and you have to pay a monthly fee of $12.99 to watch it." ”
Edwards didn't care at all: "It's just two hamburgers." ”
As soon as he got off work in the afternoon, Edwards hurried out of the office and drove to his lodgings, where he bought dinner and brought it home because he lived alone.
Back at home, sitting in front of the computer, Edwards eats pizza while waiting for it to turn on.
The computer turned on, he entered the Netflix website, took a look at "Prison Break" and "Survival in the Wild", and found a lot of praise, and the word of mouth simply exploded.
"After watching one season at a time, it's just cool and crooked. ”
"It's better to play this mode, like a constipation broadcast of one episode a week like a TV station, and I'm tired of waiting. ”
"It's so convenient, it's like watching an enhanced version of a TV show. ”
"The most important thing is that the drama is exciting, I spent a few all-nighters watching it!"
""Prison Break", and "Survival in the Wilderness" next door, are all poisonous, and you can't stop watching it!"
"Don't be fascinated, the most important thing is that you can watch it all at once, no need to wait. ”
Seeing this, Edwards couldn't help it, quickly registered an account, and followed the prompts to pay the $12.99 monthly fee with a credit card.
These operations are very simple, unlike some websites that are troublesome to register an account.
Edwards quickly became a paid member of Netflix, clicked on "Prison Break" first, watched it intently, and then couldn't stop.
In the words of the other side of the Pacific, this is an entry-level American drama that is suitable for most people, and it is thrilling and gripping.
Humans have always retained a great passion for tension and suspense.
Edwards watched it while eating pizza, and even forgot the time, and after watching a few episodes, he only had one feeling: such a boutique series is simply the enjoyment of life.
That's $12.99 worth it!
Finally, at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Edwards stopped because of the urgency to urinate, pressed play casually, went to the toilet, and came back to watch again!
Anyway, the next day is a rest day, so you don't have to go to work, and you can't sleep at all if you don't stay up late to read it!
Netflix's new business is really good, especially this premiere mode, which is so friendly.
used to chase a drama, one episode a week, and I was worried about the living.
It's still this Netflix good.
The video played online has good definition, basically not stuttering, and you don't have to wait for ads!
When I registered, Edwards also took a general look, and the film and television dramas on the website are rich in resources, and it seems that I can use Netflix to watch the programs I want to watch in the future.
Edwards is also a knowledgeable person, and when he changed episodes, he thought of one thing, Netflix's TV series premiere mode is simply a revolutionary breakthrough!
The episode is so exciting that it wasn't until the wee hours of the morning that Edwards turned off his phone and went to bed.
I got up the next morning, and after washing, I didn't have the motivation to go out at all, eating the leftover pizza from last night, and I continued to watch the drama with an itch.
Compared with the madman when he first watched it, Edwards is a lot calmer, the series is really exciting, and the particularity of the subject matter is fascinating.
Correspondingly, this kind of drama is not expected to be a longevity drama.
The mystery of the prison is the most attractive part, and once the escape is successful, the charm of "Prison Break" is mostly lost.
But that doesn't stop him from continuing to chase now.
For lunch, Edwards ordered takeout, and he didn't really rest until he finished watching all the episodes of the first season.
Then, he couldn't help but not watch "Survival in the Wild" next door, first opened Netflix sharing, studied it for a while, and then returned to the streaming interface to search for movies and TV works that he was interested in.
Edwards found that almost all works could be searched, and if you wanted to see anything, you only had to enter the name in the search bar.
It's really so convenient.
You don't have to wait for someone to mail DVDs to your door, you don't have to go to a Passcard store to look everywhere, you just need to move your mouse and keyboard and watch whatever you want.
Edwards took a special look at the number of works displayed on the streaming page, and there were more than 100,000 including movies and TV series!
I remember that at the peak of Pepsi, there were only more than 30,000 film and television works.
Netflix's new business is simply a blessing for all film and television fans!
After a break, Edwards went to watch "Survival in the Wild" again, this type of show was quite unfamiliar to him.
Originally, Edwards didn't have much expectations, but he was also attracted to see the man's various wonderful performances in the wilderness and treacherous environment.
This is a man who dares to eat anything!
Seeing the next two episodes, the man standing at the top of the food chain has a fire all his life, and Edwards can't help but worry, he won't roast the earth and eat it, right?
This is a real man with a heavy taste!
And it's not just entertainment, after watching it, Edwards feels that he has expanded his knowledge and benefited a lot.
When you go out on a self-guided tour, you may be able to use it when you can use it......
Edwards thought for a moment, eating fish, snakes, roots, leaves, barely acceptable, but eating raw ants, all kinds of bugs......
Forget it, he still knelt for Bear Grylls.
I dare to eat anything!
This weekend off, Edwards lived a particularly fulfilling life, watching "Prison Break" and "Survival in the Wild", and then watching multiple movies on Netflix online streaming.
Compared with traditional TVs and DVDs, the choice is wider, faster and cheaper, and you can watch it right away, which is simply tailored for people like him who often use computers and the Internet.
Edwards even felt that he could give up the television and DVD to a certain extent.
Netflix is changing the way users watch through Internet technology innovation, and Ronan has been instilling in Netflix a notion of how to let consumers find the "entertainment" content they like.
To solve this problem, Netflix has given everyone a platform – Netflix streaming.
It lets users find their own tastes on the platform.
In the first week of Netflix's streaming, the business quickly expanded in the English-speaking region, Mexico and Argentina in Western Europe and Latin America, supported by huge publicity and a new mode of drama broadcasting, as well as the explosion of word-of-mouth for the series.
In North America alone, the number of paying subscribers has skyrocketed by 350,000.
At the same time, Netflix's external research and consulting company also has the latest market data feedback.
Ronan is well aware that Netflix's ad-free streaming mode will change the viewing habits of many viewers.
Netflix's episodes are usually released throughout the season, and the audience can watch the entire season in a row.
According to the data of market feedback, 67% of the audience is very interested in binge-watching, and among those who have used Netflix streaming media, as many as 89% say that Netflix's binge-watching makes them feel very happy!
