"Lao Tu, please contact the people on Warner Bros. to see, this number of votes seems to be a little abnormal. ”

In the Time Reasoning Magazine, Han Kai, who is in charge of monitoring the data, saw the soaring ranking of "Sherlock" on the voting list and said that this book was originally the focus of attention, but now it has increased by hundreds of votes in a few minutes, which seems to be too exaggerated.

However, in the case of this fandom essay contest, the Reasoning Magazine is only responsible for the primary selection, and the outstanding fanfics are selected and published in the magazine, and the subsequent voting session is in charge of the production and distribution of the movie "Sherlock Holmes" - the Hollywood movie giant Warner Bros.

Even if Han Kai saw this data surge, he couldn't call up the IP address of the vote from the background, so he could only hand it over to someone else to deal with.

Tu Lun was very surprised, "This novel shouldn't be so bad, and the top student in the college entrance examination shouldn't use these small means." What's more, none of the previous voters were locked by Warner Bros. from the beginning. ”

"Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, do you know that he will definitely not do this?" Han Kai was still very cautious, seeing that the essay contest had come to an end, he only hoped that there would be no big mess.

"Okay, okay, I'll call that right away. ”

……

Chinese mainland, the world's second-largest box office market after North America, has not even fully tapped its box office potential.

Many Hollywood studios have branches in China, and those who often watch Hollywood movies will probably know that its logo is the gold-blue WB logo, which is affectionately known as Bad Movie by fans.

"Sherlock Holmes" invited two famous Hollywood actors, with a production cost of up to $100 million and a publicity cost of $25 million, which can be regarded as a big production in the summer!

No film with box office ambitions will miss the promotion in China, and director Guy Ritchie and two leading actors went to China to promote it, and everyone's expectations for the box office of the movie are generally optimistic.

In Yanjing Company, the technical department of Warner Bros. China Branch was also in full swing, when a call from the magazine "Time Reasoning" came in.

Tang Mingzhi is an unknown person in the technical department, he is a high-achieving student who graduated from a famous university, but after working for so long, his passion has been worn out, and now he is mainly responsible for the maintenance of the official website of the Chinese version of Warner Bros. and related movie homepages.

"Hey, is it Brother Tang?" Han Kai asked.

"It's me, do you have something to do?" Tang Mingzhi said very coldly, he had a hunch that his workload was going to increase.

Han Kai said: "We have released the July issue of the magazine today, and this is the last shortlisted work of the Sherlock Holmes Essay Contest. However, there is one book that seems to be not growing normally, so I thought about showing you the specifics of it. ”

"You mean Sherlock, right?"

"Yes, yes, this is it. In just a few minutes, it grew by hundreds of votes, and I really don't know how to do it. ”

Tang Mingzhi laughed twice, "Its data is normal, and we have also paid attention to this extraordinary growth rate, considering its popularity on the Internet, even I think this is a bit slow." ”

"Detective Sherlock" is different from other works, its author is very famous, the top student in the college entrance examination in Jiangdong Province!

Now that the college entrance examination results have only come out for two days, and the school admission results have not come out, it is when these college entrance examination champions frequently appear in the newspaper.

The champions of the rest of the provinces and cities are hot one by one, and the champions of Jiangdong Province have long had a feeling of detachment, and people have already passed the fire with full score essays, exceptional admissions and college entrance examination champions, and now they have tossed new tricks.

What does the fan fiction written by the top student in the college entrance examination look like?

Will the writing and framing of the perfect score essay find traces in this Sherlock Holmes work?

The media that don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement have reported on Zhang Chu's work, and the work has ushered in a lot of downloads and purchases not long after it was released!

"You should have a lot of sales in your magazine, right? There's a lot of news on the Internet, so you should be happy. ”

Only then did Han Kai remember that the figures mentioned by the editor-in-chief at the previous meeting had sold tens of thousands of copies of both the electronic and paper versions of the magazine, and this was how the number of votes came.

Tang Mingzhi explained: "There is a lot of news in this that your magazine has made, don't make too much fuss. Our vote doesn't restrict voters from reading or not, which means they can vote without buying your novel. In this way, the threshold is relatively low, and the number of people may be slightly larger. ”

"I see, Brother Tang bothered, goodbye. ”

Even the top ten works on the list did not cause such a big sensation on the Internet, Tang Mingzhi suddenly wondered what kind of magic this book had to attract so many people to vote.

Due to copyright issues, the full text of this work cannot be released on the Internet, and only about 30% can be reproduced or quoted according to the regulations, unless it is authorized by the author.

Of course, some poems and short stories are not within this scope, and the full text will be published without the slightest attention.

The official website of the Sherlock Holmes Essay is the only place where you can read the original version for free, because by submitting the work to the essay, the author acknowledges that Warner Bros. can use the work for commercial purposes.

Publication in the magazine is paid separately, and if you want to read the magazine, you must spend money, and each issue of "Time Reasoning" is not full of essays, and each issue is more than five articles and less than three.

Because it can be watched for free, it can attract hundreds of votes in a few minutes, and Tang Mingzhi is also curious to click in to view the content.

As a result, I was attracted by this look!

……

Zhang Chu searched for the title of his book with his mobile phone, but he didn't expect the number of votes for his book to come to 4103 votes, this rise is too terrifying!

There are also a lot of people who participated in the comments, and many people even only knew that there were two people, Sherlock Holmes and Watson, and did not know the plot of the original story.

"I've never read Sherlock Holmes's works, but the first time I read it, I found it pretty good. But after searching, I was told that this was just a fanwork! Is the quality of fanworks so high these years?

"One is classical Chinese, the other is vernacular fiction, there is no comparison at all. The writing is OK, the plot is very good, and the reasoning is very interesting. It would be nice if it was made into a movie or TV series, but the novel is not intuitive. ”

"How can such a good-looking novel be only 3,200 votes?

"Except for the scene in modern times, the spirit of Sherlock Holmes has not changed. I've seen all the works in this essay campaign, only "Sherlock" can score 5 stars, and the rest of the works are at most 4 stars. ”

"Everything was fine, the only problem was that it was too short. Why is there only this one story, and the rest of the story will be handed over quickly!"

"I'm a loyal reader of Sherlock Holmes novels, Zhang Chu has made some modern adaptations of the original book, and I'm so handsome with my mobile phone!"

"There are a few flaws in solving the case, but the biggest feature is to use modern technology to show the image of a detective, and I look forward to more works by Zhang Chu. ”
