In Lu Ban’s background, he can see the growth of specific data.
For example, data such as effective clicks and total clicks can be used to directly calculate revenue.
In the past, all these video websites had non-transparent data. There was only one number of total clicks. As for effective clicks, it all depended on the website telling the producer how many there were, and the profits were naturally in the hands of the other party.
That's the free operating model.
Later, after a fierce struggle, new regulations were finally established and the backstage became transparent.
For example, now Lu Ban can open the backend of several video websites and constantly refresh the number of clicks.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone was looking at whether the moon was round or not, but Lu Ban was just looking at how many clicks there were.
Refreshing the page, the number of hits on the Jiuri Video Network has reached 150,000, and the number of effective hits is just over 10,000.
The number of hits on Aishouyi Video Network is over 20,000, but the number of effective hits is only 4,000.
The data of Strawman Video Network is similar to that of Aishouyi Video Network, but the number of clicks is smaller, less than 10,000.
What surprised Lu Ban was that Tomorrow Online had the highest number of clicks, which even exceeded his main battlefield, Jiu Ri Video Network, reaching 200,000, but the effective clicks were only 3,000, even lower than Ai Shouyi Video Network.
Here you can see the tonality of several websites.
Aishouyi Video Network and Caocaoren Video Network have a higher proportion of paying users.
This is not to say that their users are very loyal, but there is basically nothing to watch on these two websites without a membership. You have to watch a one-minute advertisement for the free part, and there is another 30-second advertisement halfway through. If you become a member, you can pay for advanced on-demand viewing, and even more money for super advanced on-demand viewing.
Therefore, most of the people who use these two websites have paid money. They are forced to do so and use money to create happiness.
The main feature of JiuRi Video Network is UCG, which is content uploaded by users themselves. These contents are basically free, and free-ticket users can enjoy most of the content on the website, so the payment rate is relatively low.
Tomorrow Online is at the other extreme. It focuses on the sinking market and short videos, mostly attracting users who have not had much contact with the Internet in the past. These users are extremely price sensitive, that is, free-ticket users among free-ticket users. So although the traffic is large, very few are willing to pay to watch the content beyond six minutes.
Lu Ban was quite satisfied with the 20,000 effective clicks in one night. After all, today was the Mid-Autumn Festival and many people were watching the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala with their families. Besides, apart from his fans on the old video website, he had hardly received any publicity elsewhere, so it would take time for the popularity to ferment.
There are still more than two months left. If I earn ten thousand a day, I can reach one million. At least I can get a [mediocre] evaluation!
For Lu Ban, being content is his greatest virtue.
After refreshing for a while, it was Lu Ban’s sleeping time. He drank hot milk, did some stretching exercises, washed up, then remembered something and posted another status.
[Motionless]: I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
As for the hundreds of comments that popped up instantly on this post, he didn't pay any attention to them.
They must be blessings!
Background music played and Lu Ban lay down.
In his sleep, he felt a hand gently touching the back of his hand, then moving up, across his chest, to his neck and cheek, like a mother caressing her child.
"Um?"
When Lu Ban opened his eyes slightly, he felt a figure pressing on him, making him unable to move.
In his ears, the song of the righteous light continued, which made Lu Ban feel a little strange.
Normally, shouldn't these guys fall asleep peacefully to the sound of positive energy songs?
Could it be that...
“Is this song not positive enough?”
Lu Ban frowned. He saw that the shadow was blurry and didn't look like the one he had seen before.
Evolved?
Or...
When Lu Ban concentrated his attention, he felt that the blurry shadow seemed thinner, like a woman.
Lu Ban has seen many female ghosts.
He felt that as he saw the other person more clearly, the oppressive force was weakening, and soon, Lu Ban was able to sit up.
He saw the figure quickly disappear and no trace of it could be found.
"Well, disturbing my sleep."
Lu Ban didn't turn on the lights, but in the dim room, there seemed to be a figure moving.
He first looked at the corner of the bed, where an eyeball was faintly visible.
"Is it you?"
When Lu Ban noticed the eyeball, it immediately shrank back, leaving only a little hair outside, like a swaying anemone.
"You're not the timid one."
He muttered to himself, stood up again and walked to the closet.
I opened the closet door and saw a shadow curled up among the autumn clothes, like a shivering cat.
"It's not like you, staying at home alone."
Lu Ban turned his head and leaned over to look under the bed.
Under the bed, which was so clean that there was not a trace of dust, there was a funny puppet crawling slowly. It seemed to have noticed Lu Ban, and it turned its head and revealed a hideous smile.
"You're moving too slowly. That's not right."
Lu Ban walked out of the bedroom and went to the bathroom. He didn't turn on the light. The light from outside shone through the frosted glass of the window, making the room dim.
He looked in the mirror.
There's nothing in the mirror.
"Um?"
Lu Ban took a closer look and found that the Lu Ban in the mirror was in the corner, seemingly frightened by something.
"It doesn't look like you either."
He returned to the bedroom and spoke to his air friend beside him.
"Could it be you?"
There was no response.
"You said if it was you, I wouldn't wake up at all? Okay."
Lu Ban checked around and found that there seemed to be no one living with him in the room who had disturbed his sleep.
Are you new?
Lu Ban looked towards the table, the crimson crystals dimmed in the dim light.
He thought about it and adjusted the playlist, replacing it with the background music album produced by Hammer, which contained mostly underworld soundtracks with underworld melodies.
The soft murmur of the woman echoed in the bedroom, accompanied by the melody of Japanese instruments. As soon as you heard it, you would think that you should put up a close-up black-and-white portrait, light two candles, and get an incense burner, so that the sun would shine on the incense burner and produce purple smoke.
It is definitely a authentic funeral music.
Listening to the music, Lu Ban lay down contentedly and slept until dawn, without leaving any fatigue or stress for the next day.
In the morning, he ate breakfast and studied as usual. At noon, Lu Ban opened the webpage to see what was popular.
This time he actually saw himself directly on the list, ranking fourth among several homemade movies and TV series produced by Old Video Network.
He was very satisfied with the result. After all, it was only the first day and the duration was not long enough.
Without rushing to open the backstage, Lu Ban saw the push message "Do you understand?" on his mobile phone.
"How do you evaluate the new work [Hyakunin Isshu] by the old video website UP host Yidongdong?"
He clicked on it.
