Chapter 1041 is actually an advertisement

It was night, handed over to a superior suite in a nearby hotel.

Atletico came out of the shower, wrapped in a bathrobe and sitting on the sofa, his eyes falling on the coffee table in front of him.

On top of it was a white plastic suitcase, almost the size of a small suitcase.

Reaching out and pressing the fingerprint lock, the lid of the box popped up slightly, and a "giggle" laugh came out.

Late at night, white box, inexplicable baby laughter, feeling slightly scary.

However, Atletico did not react, and lifted the lid as usual, revealing a small baby curled up on his side in a box.

Stimulated by the light, the little one raised his head with slightly squinted eyes and looked at Atletico Madrid with a curious expression.

The little face was round, the eyes were big and bright, and the skin was soft and white, so Ma Jing couldn't help but poke the little buttocks, and the touch made him nod with satisfaction.

Trafficking in babies is a crime, and transporting babies in sealed boxes is a heinous act of abuse, injury and even murder.

However, the specific baby is no problem, because it is a robot, an advanced human baby simulator to be exact, and the manufacturer is a digital creature owned by bees.

If Zhou Qin and Wu Yue see it, they should be able to recognize "him" at a glance, and he is the popular little angel "Lulu" in the "Descending from the Sky" online comprehensive.

In fact, this kind of "simulated baby" has been around for a long time, which can simulate the baby's emotions and movements, and can produce reasonable feedback on caregiving behaviors such as petting, patting, picking, and feeding, and is mainly used for the education and training of medical students and the "induction" training of expectant parents.

Although there has long been a slogan of "eugenics" in China, the pre-birth training of expectant parents has been in a blank state for a long time, so that many people are bewitched by TV commercials, and only know to give children prenatal education, early childhood education, calcium supplementation, zinc supplementation, and DHA. As a result, a lot of money is spent, but the effect is not necessarily much, and it can even have the opposite effect of stifling nature.

Until recent years, due to the influx of Internet information, some young parents have begun to learn from foreign humanized and scientific parenting methods, and "home simulated babies" as an important teaching aid have gradually become popular. Then many parents found with a wry smile that on the packaging of the "Lit Angels" simulated baby they bought through overseas shopping channels, the manufacturer's column prominently said Amoy Digital Being Tech d., and the place of origin was Dongguan, and they couldn't smile bitterly for a while.

Now that there is demand in China, digital biology will naturally not miss it, and soon launched a new "Bright Angel" that looks more in line with the tastes of Chinese people for domestic users. In order to better promote this product, they found two brother companies, Bee Ying Jiaying, and jointly created a reality show for expectant parents with simulated babies as the core element, that is, the new variety show "Falling from the Sky" that Zhou Qin saw by chance.

Because of the platform and time, this show has not become very popular, but it already has a certain number of fans among college students, and Atletico Madrid asked people to send "Lulu" over, but it is to prepare for tomorrow's event.

There are many teams at home and abroad that study RISC V architecture, but Bee Core is ahead of everyone, and the world's only 16nm commercial RISC V processor is the BH501 from the latter. Atletico Madrid was therefore invited by the organizing committee to attend the publicity day on the first day of the conference as an industry expert.

In his opinion, the so-called publicity day is to introduce progress to outsiders and attract people into the pit, and the best medium is excellent products. The other two products on the 501 platform: bracelets and glasses have a lot of exposure, and there is nothing new, so he hit the idea on the LA robot that is also equipped with the chip, which can not only attract attention and create topics, but also promote simulated babies and "variety shows from the sky", which is one of the three major birds in one fell swoop.

After some adjustment, Atletico let it lie down again, then closed the lid and fell into deep thought.

Originally, the domestic variety show market was ruled by the Korean Wave.

Because of the importance of choreographers and directors' creations and the large number of idols, South Korean variety shows have developed rapidly and produced a large number of popular programs, many of which have been introduced to China by subtitle groups and video websites. "Runingman", "I'mSinger" and other outstanding companies were even selected by domestic TV stations, won the adaptation rights to remake the Chinese version, and all achieved great success, high ratings, advertising costs skyrocketed. Coupled with a variety of unauthorized copycat shows, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is ruled by Hallyu.

Among these programs, the star parent-child program "Where Are You Going, Dad" is the most eye-catching.

"Dad" has maintained high ratings for four consecutive years, and at its peak, it collected 1.5 billion advertising fees. In addition to envy and jealousy, the major brother stations have also taken action to try to emulate, and have successively launched a series of follow-up programs such as Dad is back, Mom is great, Grandpa is also amazing, Sister Please Answer, Brother Watch Me, etc. For a while, no matter which station the audience switched to, they could see a familiar picture of adults and children, and special effects on the screen.

In addition to the TV screen, the "extended version of the special program" carefully concocted by the "Dad" program team took advantage of the situation to land on the big screen and won 700 million box office in one fell swoop. stunned countless film critics, and also made many film directors so depressed that they doubted their lives.

In 2015, during the Lunar New Year, two "dads" appeared on the screen at the same time, one is the official sequel recorded overseas by the variety show team with the second season of "New Dad", and the other is the sequel to the actor who went to South Korea for a vacation in the first season. However, at this time, the audience was already a little bored, and the two similar movies were released at the same time, and they only got 200 million and 50 million box office respectively.

However, this kind of film doesn't have any big scenes, and as a contemporary theme, it can also be implanted without traces, so after deducting the theater share and publicity costs, it still makes money, but it is not as heartbroken as the first one.

Seeing that the "Dad" movie made money three times in a row, some filmmakers couldn't sit still, and then there was the cute baby-themed movie "Falling from the Sky", which is the prototype of the parent-child variety show of Bee Video.

This is a film full of commercial highlights, the male and female protagonists are handsome and beautiful, the mixed-race babies are cute and cute, and the plot is full of elements such as the electric shock of singers who are loved by the audience, ambiguous relationships, exquisite mansions, and car accident scenes;

In the end, this improvised, filmed in only 37 days, received 50 million box office at the end of the year - although it was far from the producer's expectations, it did not lose much money. The only thing that is more disturbing is that due to the blunt and insincere plot, the online reputation of this movie is a mess, and it has become the worst Chinese film in history that surpasses "Fuchun Mountain Residence" in the eyes of film critics and some audiences.

In fact, there has never been a shortage of shoddy bad movies in the domestic and foreign film markets, but most of the bad movies are "rotten in the corner and no one knows" because they sell too poorly and have no money for publicity, and then luckily threw off the worst hat in history.

For producers, low reviews and poor reputation are not a problem, as long as the box office is high and famous, and they can still make money, they can still carry out various peripheral developments, and there is no problem with sequel shooting. But the problem is that the box office of this movie is not high, in 2002, when there were only more than 2,000 pieces on the screen and the total box office in the country was only 950 million, 50 million was still a number that could be on the list, but in 2015, when the number of screens was close to 40,000 and the total box office in the country exceeded 40 billion, it was really not enough to watch.

Then, this chicken movie was photographed by Jiajing Film and Television, which is known as the "garbage guy in the film and television industry", and the latter bought the copyright at a low price, re-edited the dubbing and added special effects, and then put it on Bee Video for free broadcasting.

This is also the usual routine of the two sides: Jiaying pays to buy the copyright, BeeTV provides the broadcast platform, and then shares advertising and other revenues. In this way, the Atletico couple found a way out for more and more dividends (turning into a library asset), and Bee Video was able to stay out of the copyright war and the wave of self-production, and improve video recommendation and profitability with peace of mind. It has become a common practice for two affiliated companies to take what they need and benefit both sides when they cooperate.

Because of the long-term benefits of buying copyrights, those popular film and television dramas and programs that are only willing to sell online broadcast rights for a short period of time are naturally excluded by Jiaying (even if they are willing to sell, the copyright is sky-high, and Atletico Madrid said that they can't afford it), and they only look for those old or garbage drama programs that have bright spots and can be transformed.

Although there is a lack of popular programs that have a significant effect on attracting new users, Bee Video still relies on a powerful intelligent recommendation algorithm, high image quality and low traffic brought by exclusive coding, and the advantages of manually disable ads, which continue to expand its market share.

In Atletico Madrid's view, those video sites that bought popular programs at a high price have scratched a bloody wound on themselves, although the number of registered users, the number of active users, and member sales have reached new highs, but old members and old users have been losing because of longer and longer advertisements and more and more expensive members. Once the head program is cut off, the number of new members has dropped sharply, and now the good days of cooking oil with flowers and brocade have come to an end. And this is also the reason why major video websites are further crazy about the top dramas: the "healthy and upward" performance of the website is maintained by traffic, and buying big dramas is "buying a living road to buy the future", if you don't buy it, you will quickly expose the weak nature, and the violent death will be tomorrow.

In fact, many of the surviving video websites have been co-opted by media groups and big capital, and they have their own expertise in content operation and diversion and monetization, and they have a high tolerance for losses, and they can wait until the future to slowly earn back. And Atletico Madrid and Bee Shadow don't go down this path just because it's not suitable for them.

As far as Bee Ying is concerned, although the plot of "Falling from the Sky" is sparse and the word of mouth is explosive, it has a fairly good reputation and the three star faces of Little Sheep, Chen Dongdong, and Li Lulu, which still have a certain development value. As long as the plot is changed, it should be excellent to push it to their fans to see their faces.

Because the original story really didn't know what to say, the recut version was simply discarded, and instead relied on editing techniques and dubbing to retell the story.

The alien identity of the mixed-race baby is removed, and he becomes an ordinary human child, separated from his family because he was snatched by human traffickers, and is rescued by the four protagonists by accident and temporarily lives in their home, because everyone is a novice, and it ends up making a bunch of jokes. In the end, the baby returned to his parents, and the young protagonist also revised their outlook on life and marriage and love because of this experience, and finally a lover finally became a family member, got married and had children.

To be honest, the new version of the plot is not brilliant, cliché and old-fashioned lack of novelty, and there is also the problem of shrinking length and loss of characters, and there is still a long way to go from a masterpiece. However, Bee Shadow does not expect to be able to turn decay into magic, as long as the plot is simple and smooth, the jokes are reasonable and cola, and the audience is not allowed to leave halfway, to ensure that the product placement - Jiaying Bee Shadow and the advertiser renegotiate and carry out technical processing of the original product placement advertising to improve the comprehensive benefits - can be put in place, and their goal will be achieved.

And the audience is also generous, there is a word-of-mouth explosion of the original version as a comparison, and the new version still received praise and is considered a successful adaptation.

Originally, it was like this, but who knew that the father of radio and television suddenly sent God to assist, and successively played two Wang bombs of "Limit Baby Order" and "Limit Korean Order", which shocked the TV/online variety show market again and again, and also made Jiajing Film and Television and digital biology see opportunities.

The baby restriction order requires strict control of minors' participation in reality shows, and it is strictly forbidden to package and operate the second generation of stars, which flattens most parent-child variety shows in one fell swoop. Although the Korean restriction order has not been officially recognized, it has also been confirmed from the follow-up reactions of major TV stations and video websites, which has made Jiajing Film and Television, which rarely introduces Korean variety shows, blossom. The arrival of the double order will inevitably lead to a large number of real parent-child programs withdrawing from the market, but the bright angel series of digital creatures has no such troubles, and just took the opportunity to enter variety shows.

On the whole, this variety show is a bit like Blueberry TV's "temporary star dad", which also puts children or babies in the hands of little fresh meat who has never brought children, and uses their embarrassment and love as the selling point.

However, the latter uses a combination of real children and idol stars, due to the safety of children and the image of stars, the scale is a little tight, and the conflict and sense of entertainment are lacking, resulting in the ratings are always not eye-catching. As soon as the baby restriction order came out, Blueberry Station decisively announced that it would stop broadcasting.

In contrast, the "Congtian Variety Show" does not have this trouble. The guests are recruited from the people, they have good looks, talents, no popularity, no burden, and can better perform the command of the choreographer, and their appearance fees are extremely low, and they can spend the saved money on other things, such as going out on location.

The addition of robot babies is full of highlights, they have artificial intelligence and artificial remote control dual mode, daily response depends on AI, dazzling details go remote control, "cooperation" and "variety show" kill most of the stars. And more importantly, the robot does not have to think about life and health, falling into the water and falling to the ground is not a broadcast accident, it can also bring tension and plot conflict to the show, as long as the display method is controlled, there is no problem.
