Chapter 113 The Silent Advance
"What?!"
Everyone was taken aback.
They all took out their phones to check.
"So fast?"
"They also have Tudou Video, and Weishi!"
"That's really fast, we'll be busy too."
"I'm familiar with Kuaishou, I'll go there!"
"I'll go to Weishi then."
"If her family can get things done so quickly, then we have plenty of people and great strength. Don't worry, Brother Li, we can get things up and running in two days at most."
Li Tao nodded, his brows furrowing with seriousness.
Because he had scrolled through all the short dramas on Kuaishou, but "Unrivaled" was missing.
"He's digging his own moat!" he muttered to himself.
Others noticed the situation as well, and although they were angry, they could understand it.
After all, it's someone else's channel, and "Dynasty Warriors" isn't exclusive, so it's normal for it to be excluded.
But they didn't care.
We're all in this industry. After years of working together, who doesn't have one or two major channels they're familiar with? Put them together, and creating an omnichannel presence isn't a problem.
"Let's skip dinner today and focus on making money. Once this busy period is over, we can have a proper get-together."
"OK!"
Everyone agreed.
Soon, the once lively trending culture scene immediately quieted down.
Li Tao remained calm as he looked at the "Sunny Day Films" logo on his phone screen.
"Let's give it a try!"
Back in Chengdu, Shen Mo spends his days filming, live streaming, and coding.
After several days of frantic filming, Duan Xiuming's scenes will be finished in two days at most.
"Brother Mo, that smiling exercise you did last time was so hard! Could you teach me an easier version?"
As soon as filming ended, Yu Ying immediately clung to him.
After several days of filming, the two spent a lot of time together and got along quite well.
Yu Ying initially wanted to just get on the train and buy a ticket, but unexpectedly, during a scene rehearsal, she couldn't keep up with Shen Mo's performance and had to do more than ten takes.
Shen Mo then explained some unorthodox acting techniques to her, which allowed her to pass the test smoothly.
From then on, the way Yu Ying looked at him changed.
The methods of pestering him evolved from clumsy scraping to direct pulling and tugging, with him directing the performance.
"The smiling exercise is indeed difficult for you."
"You can start with the most basic thing: biting chopsticks."
As he spoke, he took a chopstick from the side and handed it over.
"Gently bite the chopsticks with your front teeth, and try to raise the corners of your mouth upwards until they are higher than the chopsticks, hold for thirty seconds."
"Practice this movement repeatedly until you can naturally show your upper six to eight teeth."
Yu Ying was stunned.
"Isn't this for training flight attendants to smile?"
No...that's not right...
Is that what I meant?
Although she's not formally trained, she's acted in dramas for so many years, why would she need this?
As she thought about it, the way she looked at Shen Mo changed involuntarily.
Is this guy no good?
"This is just the most basic micro-expression training method. Once you reach the goal, you can start practicing in front of the mirror, as well as the smile exercise I taught you last time."
She inquired and found out that the other party did not have a girlfriend, so Director Liu did not make a move.
She'd tried baiting him several times these past few days, but Shen Mo just wouldn't bite, leaving her speechless.
Seeing Shen Mo's cluelessness, Yu Ying couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"I've noticed that others train their micro-expressions by recalling memories and looking at specific things to evoke emotions."
"You're talking about the method of emotions and intentions. It would be better to start using this method after you've mastered the techniques of facial expressions and gestures."
After saying that, Shen Mo picked up his backpack, said goodbye to everyone, and left.
It wasn't that he couldn't understand Yu Ying and Zhang Shurong's hints; it was just that the two beauties had chosen the wrong time.
Shen Mo has been incredibly busy lately, so he hasn't had the time or inclination to think about those things.
In comparison, Zhu Manli's skill level is much higher.
Their relationship was less like that of a boyfriend and girlfriend and more like that of a couple who were just eating and drinking.
When they have work, they are busy with their own things, but when they have free time, they can peck and feed each other.
Although his body was only in his early twenties, his soul was that of an old man.
He prefers this kind of simple and clear emotional exchange.
Of course, Yu Ying and the other person might feel the same way, but he's too busy right now and doesn't even have that thought.
Instead of going home, he went directly to his personal studio in the eastern suburbs.
His studio has expanded from just him and Gu Qingqing to 11 people.
Five people were in charge of the music section, and five people were in charge of his live streaming and account management.
Gu Qingqing was in overall control.
Live streaming traffic has been very low recently. One reason is that the Chinese New Year is approaching, most people have returned to their hometowns, and entertainment activities have greatly increased, so they have less time to watch live streams.
As for the bosses, with the end of the year approaching, it's the peak season for official interactions, so naturally they don't have time to watch live streams.
On the other hand, all MCN companies and entertainment companies have a tacit understanding to unleash all their major promotions for the year before the pre-sale of Lunar New Year movie tickets.
Take, for example, the live broadcast night of Miracle.
With strong support from the platform's traffic, each event was a huge hit, attracting over 10 viewers.
This year's Miracle Live Night will once again be a showdown between the "Miracle-Quadrant" and the "Miracle-Caesar".
Chen Luo's team, 'Miracle-A', is currently ranked third, but their statistics are far behind the champions and runners-up, so it's confirmed that they won't be able to participate in tomorrow night's championship night.
These past few days have been nothing short of bountiful for Miracle Company.
Every night there are two or three live streams with over 10 viewers, and their popularity has directly surpassed that of many established companies.
The team 'Miracle-H' started its own individual broadcasts a week ago because they didn't participate in the live streaming competition this year.
For them, accumulating older brothers and sisters is the most important thing.
In contrast, Shen Mo's live stream viewership increased rather than decreased.
On the one hand, there is the continuous output of short videos, with two dance videos every day, one a cover and one a tutorial; and four original dance videos are updated every two weeks, mainly group dances.
On the other hand, the explosive popularity of "After the Breakup" has attracted a large number of female fans of short dramas, resulting in a significant increase in the number of fans and a surge in the popularity of the live broadcast room.
Of course, the songs "Rakshasa Mirage" and "Towards the Clouds" continue to generate buzz, which has kept his popularity soaring.
His success in singing, dancing, and acting is directly reflected in the popularity of his live stream every night. The average number of viewers is 60,000 to 70,000, occasionally 80,000 to 90,000, and once it even exceeded 100,000. In Gu Qingqing's view, this is a breakthrough at this stage.
This was something I wouldn't have dared to imagine before.
"Mr. Wu contacted me today, wanting to chat with you after your live stream."
"Okay!" Shen Mo agreed without hesitation.
I'm still a miracle streamer, and although my contract has a few months left, there's no need to make things too awkward.
Putting aside the fact that he doesn't have much of a grudge against Miracle, just considering the exorbitant penalty for breach of contract, he plans to slowly wait until the contract expires.
After finishing his makeup and tidying up a bit, his stomach was rumbling loudly, so he went into his live stream room.
Bathed in the lights, there was a table in the not-too-crowded live-streaming room.
On the table were an induction cooker and a pot, next to his dinner for the evening.
Unprocessed vegetables and meat!
"Hello everyone! Good evening, Silent Kitchen is back again."
As the composition of his fan base changes, his livestreaming format will inevitably need to be adjusted as well.
It started with just dancing and games, then the songs became popular, so singing segments were added, and now that short dramas are popular, situational performance elements have been added.
As more and more elements were added, his live stream began to experience a decline in viewership.
After several video conferences with Gu Qingqing, Shen Mo finally had a flash of inspiration and combined all the elements together, then put on the variety show outfit.
That's how we got to where we are now, with tens of thousands of viewers every night.
"Tonight I'm making myself a simple Sichuan dish: twice-cooked pork!"
