The number of views of Conquering the Demons

Hearing Luo Xiao ask about Lanpian Film and Television, Wang Bin smiled unconsciously.

"demon subduing record was released early this morning. According to data from Banana TV, within the first half hour of its release, the effective view count had already reached 5 million. However, the growth rate of effective views gradually slowed down afterward."

"I suspect it's because a group of people who were eager to watch demon subduing record started watching the moment the movie was released."

"I've also been keeping an eye on the data for demon subduing record all afternoon. By the time I came over, the view count for demon subduing record had already reached over 20 million."

"Based on the current growth rate of effective views, the effective view count for demon subduing record could reach 30 million today."

30 million!

Luo Xiao listened to Wang Bin's analysis and raised an eyebrow. 30 million effective views.

According to the contract price, each effective view is worth 3 yuan. That means the profit from demon subduing record being on Banana TV for just today is 90 million.

Not bad at all. After all, this income isn't a one-time thing; there will be continuous income every day in the future.

"Hmm, when the results come out tonight, write up a report. It's good news, after all, so we should report it to President Chen."

Luo Xiao stroked his chin and spoke slowly.

"I understand, Brother Xiao."

Wang Bin nodded.

The two sat in the pergola to rest for a while. In the distance, the filming scene had been set up, and the actors were ready. Luo Xiao stood up and walked over.

Wang Bin also stood up and followed. Although he didn't have any scenes today, there were many things in the crew that needed to be handled.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was eight o'clock in the evening. Because there were a few night scenes today, filming ended a bit later. As the last scene of the day was finished.

Luo Xiao looked at the footage from the final day of filming, picked up the megaphone, and shouted loudly, "Cut, that's a wrap. That's it for today's filming. Everyone, pack up and you can head back to the hotel."

As Luo Xiao's words rang out, the crew members smiled and began to quickly pack up the filming equipment, loading it into the vehicles parked nearby.

The actors also boarded their assigned vehicles. These cars had all been arranged beforehand, with plans for who would ride in which vehicle. This avoided chaos in transportation, and since the personnel in each vehicle were fixed, it was easier to tell if anyone was missing, which was beneficial for management.

Seeing that most of the crew members were already in their vehicles, Luo Xiao boarded the lead vehicle. The convoy then slowly headed out of the Film City.

Some extras, less famous actors, or filming staff by the roadside saw this scene and all showed expressions of envy.

After so much time, they knew very well where this convoy was headed. The entire crew, whether actors or filming staff, was going to Junhao Hotel to rest. That Junhao Hotel was the most luxurious hotel near the Film City.

Filming a movie in such a crew is truly a blessing.

"Truly extravagant. I've been an extra in the Film City for five years, and this is the first time I've encountered such an extravagant crew."

"It's a pity I'm not a member of this crew; even just being a handyman inside would be blissful enough."

"I went to interview for a filming staff position with their company."

"And the result?"

"Result? What result could there be? There were thousands of resumes ahead of me; before it was even my turn, the positions were already filled."

"That's true. A crew with such good benefits must have a lot of people applying."

"Haven't you seen those extras? They guard the crew's entrance every day, isn't it just so that one day they might be noticed by the crew?"

"That's where you don't understand. The chance of being noticed is very low, but if they need temporary extras, there's a high chance of being picked. Being an extra there pays much better than other crews, and even the boxed lunches provided at noon are very substantial."

"…" The pedestrians by the road watched the disappearing convoy and chatted with each other. In everyone's eyes, without exception, there was envy.

…

Junhao Hotel.

The crew members got off the vehicles and headed straight into the hotel. However, they didn't go directly back to their Rooms; instead, they headed straight to a hall in the hotel where dinner was prepared for them.

This had been negotiated before checking into the hotel; the hotel would provide breakfast and dinner.

However, because the filming schedule was not fixed, sometimes they might return very late at night due to filming night scenes. So, to ensure the food served was fresh and hot, they almost always notified the hotel an hour in advance, and then the hotel would notify the kitchen to prepare it.

Of course, the hotel was able to do this entirely because the crew had occupied almost half of the hotel. Moreover, they had paid for the meals. After all, President Chen demanded that the crew members' meals could not be neglected; even if it meant spending more money, the food quality had to be improved.

"Brother Xiao, I've already arranged for someone to bring the food to my Room. Let's go there to eat, and while we're at it, we can check the view count of demon subduing record on Banana TV."

Wang Bin came to Luo Xiao's side and said with a smile.

"Hmm, how did the hotel staff agree to bring the food to your Room?"

Luo Xiao looked at Wang Bin in surprise; when negotiating the meals with the hotel, there was no such service included.

"About that, I've gotten familiar with a few members of the hotel's management. They can still satisfy some small requests, and it's not like we ask them to do this often, so they are quite willing."

Wang Bin chuckled.

"Then let's go!"

Hearing this, Luo Xiao didn't ask further and walked with Wang Bin towards the hotel Room. He also really wanted to see the current view count of demon subduing record.

Back in the hotel Room, Wang Bin opened the data chart sent by Banana TV. The data on it was updated in real-time, roughly every 15 minutes.

Opening the chart, one could clearly see the latest view count for demon subduing record. It was now over 29.8 million views, and based on the current growth trend, there was absolutely no problem with demon subduing record breaking 30 million views before 12 o'clock tonight.

This was about the same as what they had predicted at the set.

"This is about what we expected; there's almost no discrepancy."

Looking at the data curve, Wang Bin felt very cheerful. demon subduing record had over 30 million views just one day after being released, which meant 90 million in revenue. This was already a very high income.

"Hmm, we'll write up the report later and send it to Mingri Group tomorrow morning to report back."

Luo Xiao looked at the data chart with a faint smile on his lips.
