Before four o'clock in the morning, when the night was still shrouded in the land of China, alarm clocks rang one after another in different cities and different rooms across the country.

Fortunately, this is already on the verge of the Spring Festival, and the student party has already gone home from vacation, otherwise setting such an early alarm clock in the dormitory will definitely be killed by roommates.

As they yawned and stared at the computer screen with their sleepy eyes open, films and television works from the other side of the world were presented to them through the Internet.

Wei Wei played with his mobile phone until the early hours of the morning last night, and now he was woken up by the alarm clock before four o'clock, he rubbed his eyes and rolled up from the bed.

"This is completely the rhythm of cultivating immortals!"

The winter in the south made Wei Wei not want to leave the bed at all, and he had to finish his own death, crying.

Fortunately, Wei Wei already had an alternative, he picked up the iPad on the bedside, found the URL he had collected before, and then successfully found the BBC viewing link.

At this time, the BBC was still broadcasting the news, and the news anchor spoke very quickly, and Wei Wei could only listen to it after putting on his headphones.

As a college student who is interested in studying abroad, Wei Wei not only passed the four or six high scores, but also scored high scores in the TOEFL exam, so listening is not particularly difficult for him, plus he has enough understanding of Zhang Chu's previous work "Sherlock", so he is sure not to watch cooked meat, and get up in the middle of the night to watch the live broadcast.

In fact, Wei Wei didn't know much about Sherlock Holmes, and before reading Zhang Chu's book, he only knew that he was a legendary detective, and he didn't know what it looked like or what cases he solved.

So this time, when watching the TV series, anything is a new experience for him, and it seems that it should be so!

Everything is quiet, there is a quiet area on the Internet, most people are sleeping, and a few young people like Wei Wei are busy watching TV and have no time to comment.

Compared to Wei Wei curling up in bed and watching videos, Cui Xuanxuan is much happier, as a northerner, she has heating at home, and now she is wearing thick coral velvet pajamas and sitting in front of the computer to eat popsicles, not to mention how comfortable her life is!

Cui Xuanxuan is different from the others, the motivation to support her to get up in the middle of the night is just to see Fuhua CP, she doesn't have too many requirements for the details of the detective, she just likes the two protagonists in "Detective Sherlock".

It's normal to chase stars these days, and it's reasonable to have a cute CP, when Sherlock and Watson met for the first time, Cui Xuanxuan jumped up excitedly!

Even if the time is not appropriate, the language is difficult to understand, and there are channel barriers, this cannot hinder the determination of Zhang Chu's fans.

……

Compared with those fans who get up very early, Zhang Chu can be called heartless, he doesn't care about the TV series at all, and he sleeps until eight o'clock in the morning.

"Morning, what's for breakfast today?"

Zhang Chu had just come back from going to the toilet, and he found his mother sitting on the sofa staring at the phone, and he asked.

Chu Lan turned his head and said, "There is yogurt in the refrigerator, and you didn't eat the steamed buns that your father bought yesterday, so put them in the microwave and heat them up." You kid, I don't care about your TV series, it started at four o'clock in the morning, and now I can't find it on TV!"

"It is estimated that there are no updated resources in the set-top box, don't worry, Chinese subtitles may not be done yet." ”

Zhang Chu is not in a hurry on the surface, but in fact, he is still a little nervous in his heart, Detective Sherlock's ratings are related to his future income, if the ratings of the first TV series are too low, maybe there will be no second one.

Yogurt and steamed buns, this combination is a bit simple, but it will also fill your stomach.

He really hasn't watched the current version of "Sherlock", so after solving the problem of food and clothing, he turned on the computer and prepared to see what netizens said!

Zhang Chu is the screenwriter and original author of this TV series, and he also has a primary English proficiency given by the Savior system, even if he doesn't update the cooked meat now.

Fortunately, at this time, Tencent Video has released the Chinese subtitle version in advance, which makes netizens who are at home on vacation almost rush in.

The video that needs to be a VIP to watch has not stopped the fans from going crazy, and Tencent, as the overlord of the instant messaging category, has more customer resources than imagined.

"Don't scare me, 310,000 people are watching at the same time?" Zhang Chu was taken aback by the number displayed on the side of the webpage, this is not until nine o'clock in the morning, there are so many member accounts watching, the numbers are too scary, right?

After all, the membership function of these video sites is not universal, many people only have one video site membership, if they want to watch "Sherlock" now, then they have to buy another membership!

I don't know when the video will be launched, the barrage is already dense, and the layers of numbers, regions, and names cover all the pictures.

Those numbers that watched at the same time didn't seem to be faked, there really were so many people watching at the same time!

In order to watch the movie happily, Zhang Chu had no choice but to block the barrage, otherwise he would not be able to penetrate the past at all.

At this time, more and more people clicked on this TV series, and Tencent Video almost laughed from ear to ear, which ushered in the rhythm of a large wave of new members!

Early in the morning, people continued to recharge, and the number of new members in dozens of minutes was even more than in the past day or two.

The most important thing is that it is not the peak season, after all, there are not many people who are willing to watch TV series at nine o'clock in the morning, and the members of the video site are mainly young people, who are either at work or on vacation and have not gotten up, perhaps this surge will continue for a long time.

Zhang Chu looked at it intently, this picture is not much different from the script he wrote, only some modern British customs have been changed, and there are very few things that have been edited!

"Ding Ding Ding"

Several voice messages suddenly popped up on the screen of the mobile phone that was originally locked.

He unlocked it with his fingerprint, and then put the phone next to his ear to sound, wanting to hear what Zhou Kang was so excited about over there.

"The ratings are out! I can't believe it!"

"More than 8.4 million people watched the live broadcast, which is a rhythm against the sky!"

"The BBC is going crazy, and this time they're making a lot of money. ”

Zhang Chu frowned, and he replied with a voice and said, "Why are there only 8.4 million people? ”

Zhou Kang quickly replied: "The total population of the British side is not large, and of course it cannot be compared with our China and the United States. Do you know what the 8.4 million viewership is? 32.8%!"

"Is it wrong to read the number, 3.28% is about the same. Zhang Chu calmly questioned that if a TV series premieres in China, it can exceed 1% of the ratings, and now it is considered a hit, and 3% is almost a phenomenon.

But "Sherlock" is good, and it directly got far more than 30% of the ratings in the UK!

What is this concept?

At the beginning, the ratings of "Huanzhu Gege", which was popular all over the country, were 47%, and "Deep Love and Rain" was 11%, which is a veritable national TV series!

You must know that people's entertainment methods were very poor at that time, and now that entertainment methods are diversified, the ratings should have fallen.

Zhou Kang took a sharp breath, "It's indeed this number, it's the highest-rated program in the month, and it is also the second most-rated program throughout the year, second only to the New Year's Eve fireworks show, and higher than the ratings of the Queen of England's Christmas message!"

At this moment, Zhang Chu couldn't find any words to describe it, the giant TV station + British superhero + excellent production, this result should have exceeded everyone's expectations.
