In fact, no matter how bad the viewership ratings of Dream Entertainment's livestream were, Shi Lei had a way to deal with it.
Shi Lei was first and foremost a world-class hacker. A world-class hacker with a huge amount of resources! Secondly, Shi Lei was the CEO of Dream Entertainment.
Shi Lei was not a bad person, but he was definitely not a good person.
If Beijing Satellite TV's livestream of Dream Entertainment's official livestream could not meet the viewership ratings requirements, and even after Shi Lei's efforts, it still could not meet the requirements.
Shi Lei could use hacking methods to simulate a computer into a television to increase Beijing Satellite TV's viewership ratings.
However, Shi Lei did not intend to do that from the start.
Wang Xin was a little dazed by Shi Lei's question. Of course, she knew about Dream Entertainment's signature products. Whether it was the LIP Lens Information Processor or the VR game set, Wang Xin knew about them.
Especially the LIP Lens Information Processor, Wang Xin really wanted to have one. It was a pity that Wang Xin did not have the means to buy it. The LIP Lens Information Processor in the hands of scalpers had been hyped to a sky-high price. Wang Xin could not afford it at all.
"Mr. Shi, does the viewership ratings have something to do with the LIP Lens Information Processor and the VR game set?" Wang Xin asked in confusion.
Shi Lei nodded and said, "Yes! Of course, it has something to do with the LIP Lens Information Processor and the VR game set! Host Wang, do you know their value? "
Wang Xin thought for a moment and tucked her hair behind her ear. "Mr. Shi, if it's their official selling price, the LIP Lens Information Processor is 65,555 USD, the VR game set is 71,555 USD, and the other currencies are calculated according to the real-time exchange rate. Am I right? "
Shi Lei only smiled and did not answer.
Wang Xin immediately understood Shi Lei's meaning. "If it's their hyped price, according to Dream Entertainment's official trading system, the LIP Lens Information Processor's price has reached at least 75,555 USD. As for the VR game set, it has reached 85,555 USD, right? "
"Host Wang, you're wrong!" Shi Lei smiled and said, "In fact, it should be the LIP Lens Information Processor that has reached a hyped price of 85,555 USD, and the VR game set has reached around 90,555 USD! Moreover, the supply exceeds the supply! "
Basically, both of them had increased in price by 75,555 USD. However, the LIP lens information processor had increased in price by 755%, while the VR game set had only increased by 28%.
In terms of percentage analysis, the LIP lens information processor seemed to be more popular. This was because the LIP lens-type information processor had a larger audience and a wider range of applications. Naturally, its price was higher!
The VR game set had a smaller audience, and its greatest use was to perfectly experience the Hero's World. Although the VR game set could also be used for basic computer operations, the LIP lens information processor could also do the same. Even if the physical performance was not as comfortable and smooth as the VR game set, it at least had this function.
"What? So expensive! " Wang Xin's expression was one of shock and disbelief. "Thirty thousand USD for a pair of LIP Lens Information Processors is equivalent to two hundred and forty thousand Xia Guoyuan. This is like putting a nice car on the bridge of your nose!"
In the year 7553, the automobile industry had entered a new era. All kinds of cars were introduced to the market in an endless stream. Various joint ventures and domestic brands were constantly emerging, forming an era of prosperity.
Two hundred and forty thousand Xia Xia yuan was indeed enough to buy a good car.
"Host Wang, now you know the value of the LIP lens information processor and the VR game set, right?" Shi Lei asked teasingly.
Wang Xin quickly thought about what Shi Lei meant. Shi Lei had said that the LIP lens information processor and the VR game set were linked to the viewership ratings. Now, Shi Lei had repeatedly emphasized their value.
From the looks of it, was Shi Lei planning to use a portion of the LIP lens information processor and the VR game set for a TV event?
"Mr. Shi, are you planning to do a TV event, similar to Dream Entertainment's official player appreciation event, where you have a chance to obtain the LIP lens information processor and the VR game set?" Wang Xin asked tentatively.
Shi Lei looked at Wang Xin in surprise. He did not expect the host of "Society Talk" to understand him so quickly!
"That's right!" Shi Lei replied affirmatively. "I am indeed planning to do a TV event. Anyone who watches Dream Entertainment's player appreciation event will have a chance to obtain the VR game set and the LIP lens information processor."
A pair of LIP lens information processor had been hyped up to thirty thousand USD. A VR game set had been hyped up to forty-five thousand USD.
If one was lucky enough to obtain one of the items, wouldn't that be a windfall from the sky?
Wang Xin had been in the TV industry for a long time, so she was not unfamiliar with such TV events. However, there was a flaw in such a TV event.
"Mr. Shi, your idea is very good. However, there is a problem! " Wang Xin pointed out the problem. "That is, how do we determine if the audience is really watching the TV show?"
This was the biggest problem in the TV industry. How do we determine if the audience is really watching the TV show? Under normal circumstances, the TV show's lucky draw event would usually be held at the end, and the audience would be asked for their answers.
This method was not reliable as the answers were fixed. Even if the audience did not watch the TV show, as long as they got the answers, they could still participate in the lucky draw event.
TV shows were limited by the lack of interaction between the TV show and the audience. There was no good way to determine if the audience is really watching the TV show.
"Host Wang, how is the relationship between Beijing TV Station and the mobile communication service provider?" Shi Lei did not answer Wang Xin's question. Instead, he asked another question.
Wang Xin rolled her eyes at Shi Lei and said. "Are you thinking of using SMS to participate? Using the SMS verification scheme at the bottom of the screen to let the audience participate through their mobile phones? "
"Yes, that's right." Shi Lei was not surprised that Wang Xin could guess his thoughts. This was because his hints were very obvious.
"Mr. Shi, the SMS verification scheme is also flawed!" Wang Xin said helplessly.
This method was often used in the TV industry. However, this scheme could not determine if the audience is really watching the TV show.
Under normal circumstances, a SMS verification code could be done in minutes. Why would the audience keep watching the TV show?
Shi Lei smiled and said. "What if we use SMS verification to control the entire TV show?"
"What do you mean?" Wang Xin did not understand what Shi Lei meant. She did not know what he meant by using SMS verification to control the entire TV show.
"Using SMS verification to control the entire TV show means that we will set up multiple SMS verification codes and not just one SMS verification code." Shi Lei explained briefly and was prepared to use an example to explain.
"For example, on the 60th, when we start the live broadcast of Dream Entertainment's player appreciation event, we will set a verification code at three or five minutes. For example, if you are an ordinary audience member, you will need to send a message to the corresponding number during the first three or five minutes. That will be the first verification period. "
Shi Lei paused for a while and continued. "When the second three or five minutes is over, we will set the verification code at three minutes. When the second three minutes is over, we will change the verification code and let the audience continue with the SMS verification. Every three minutes, we will give you a new verification code. This way, we can use the verification code sent by the audience to determine if the audience is watching the entire TV show. "
Through this method, even if the audience is not watching the show, as long as the TV channel is locked to Beijing Satellite TV, they will not care if the audience is watching the show or not.
Wang Xin looked at Shi Lei speechlessly. She did not understand if Shi Lei really did not understand the TV industry or if he had other tricks up his sleeves. As a TV audience, how could they send SMS messages again and again?
Did they not need to pay for sending SMS messages?
"Mr. Shi, I don't think the audience will send SMS messages again and again, right?" Wang Xin reminded Shi Lei not to think too highly of the situation.
Shi Lei smiled and said, "Host Wang, for example, if you send a SMS message, you will only have one chance of winning the lottery. If you send a second SMS message, you will have one more chance of winning the lottery. For example, if you send seven SMS messages in a row, you will have 68 chances of winning the lottery. Other than the first SMS message, all subsequent SMS messages will count as two. If you stop halfway, you will have to start counting again. "
Shi Lei explained in detail. If 15 messages were sent consecutively, it would be equivalent to the first message. Adding the number of messages after the first one, and the number of messages after that would be doubled, that would be 664 messages.
"Don't worry about the audience not paying the bill! Tell the audience that our prizes are very valuable. We're giving out 99 VR game sets and 99 LIP Lens Information Processors as the prizes for this TV event! "Shi Lei said in a rich and imposing manner.
Forty-four VR game sets and forty-four LIP Lenses were priced at 6.039million USD according to Dream Entertainment's official selling price. If converted to China Dollar, it would be more than twelve million USD.
If it was priced according to scalpers, it would be even more shocking!
Wang Xin looked at Shi Lei in surprise again. Although Shi Lei was not related to the TV industry, Shi Lei came up with such an effective solution.
However, only Shi Lei could come up with such a solution. No other TV event would be as rich as Shi Lei to take out more than ten million USD worth of prizes.
"Mr. Shi, may I ask if there are any restrictions on the participation qualifications and prizes?" Wang Xin asked enviously. Normally, the prizes for TV events were distributed internally. The TV audience was the one being toyed with.
