Seeing that the video paused, Chen Yu breathed out a sigh of relief and exited Bilibili.
From the moment it was uploaded to the end of the broadcast, the number of views had exceeded 20,000 in just 15 minutes.
Moreover, judging from the audience's bullet comments, the quality of this episode was also very high. How many more fans he could gain would depend on Bilibili's recommendations.
Raising his head, Chen Yu looked at the empty campus and pondered for a moment. He then opened WeChat and typed on the screen.
[Chen Yu: "You there?"]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "… Please don't ask me if I'm there. I beg of you, Mr. Chen."]
[Chen Yu: "Oh!
I have something to ask you. "]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Please speak, Mr. Chen."]
[Chen Yu: "The next episode will be the last one. Can I break through the 50,000 mark?"]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "It's possible. The chances are very high."]
[Chen Yu: "Can you be more specific?
How high are the chances? "]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "The market isn't mathematics. It's hard to give you an accurate quantification of how many fans you can break through.
I can only say that there's a high chance. "]
[Chen Yu: "Alright then.
It's best if you can apply for an explosive product that can cause a sensation on Bilibili for the next episode. "]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Rest assured.
Our interests are aligned. Our team will work hard to apply for a product for you. However, we can only apply for some ordinary products during the trial phase.
By the way, there's a small matter that I'd like to discuss with you, Mr. Chen. "]
[Chen Yu: "A small matter?
What is it? "]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "At 22: 37 PM last night, Bilibili removed and blocked your account and video."]
"Blocked?"
Chen Yu hurriedly asked, startled.
[Chen Yu: "Blocked me?
Why? "]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "The specific reason is unknown. Our team has analyzed it, and it's very likely that the higher-ups ordered them to remove your video and block your account."]
"The higher-ups …"
Chen Yu frowned. Very quickly, he realized something.
[Chen Yu: "Is it because of the first episode's Nuclear Energy Laboratory?
Because it contains illegal materials and they can't find me, they blocked my account? "]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "I'm not sure.
However, isn't it normal for children to play games like making nuclear bombs at home? "]
Chen Yu was speechless.
[Chen Yu: "Making nuclear bombs at home?!
How is that normal?! "
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Wouldn't it have been better if you had just revealed your identity back then? You wouldn't have to go through all these troubles now."]
[Chen Yu: "Big Sis, are we having a cross-server chat?
Can you draw a line of thought?
If I had revealed my identity back then, I would have been dissected!
Okay? "
[Transdimensional Marketing: "It might not be that bad. At most, they will be imprisoned and put under observation."]
[Chen Yu: "Let's not talk about unimportant things. I want to know how my account was restored afterward."]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Bilibili's platform was not successfully blocked."]
[Chen Yu: "?"]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Mr. Chen, every video you review represents the interests of the Transdimensional Marketing Company and the various production companies involved. We will absolutely not allow your videos to be banned.
Any attempt to harm our legitimate interests will not be successful.
Therefore, whether it's Bilibili or any other media platform, they have no right to ban any of your articles, updates, videos, or live broadcasts. "
[Chen Yu: "… Domineering …"]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "That's why I said this is only a small matter.
Mr. Chen, you don't need to worry. Just carry out your work as usual.
The Transdimensional Marketing Company will deal with any external interference for you. "]
[Chen Yu: "… Mighty …"]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Moreover, as Bilibili has violated the Earth Alliance's unfair competition laws, we have the right to use a portion of Bilibili's manual recommendation resources without notification to compensate our company for our losses.
Your third video has already been recommended on the homepage. "]
[Chen Yu: "… Amazing …"]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Mr. Chen, do you have any other questions?"]
[Chen Yu: "No. Talk to you later."]
[Transdimensional Marketing: "Alright, Mr. Chen. Goodbye."]
Exiting WeChat, Chen Yu opened Bilibili's application. Sure enough, he saw his video on the homepage!
Wow!
What a beautiful assist!
It seems that I have a high chance of gaining 50,000 fans …
…
At the same time.
Sichuan City, North High-Tech Park, Bilibili's headquarters, seventh floor technical department:
"Director Yu, Transdimensional Review's video has been recommended on the homepage," a programmer with dark circles under his eyes reported as he approached Director Yu.
"Who put it up for him?
Didn't the operations department receive any notification?! "
Director Yu bellowed in exasperation.
"S-Operations said that we were the ones who put it up …"
"Bullshit!"
"But the operations department guaranteed that they weren't the ones who put it up."
The programmer timidly probed, "Maybe … Maybe Transdimensional Review did it themselves …"
"…"
Director Yu fell silent, an inexplicable anger born from fear filling his chest.
He wasn't afraid of being fired if he failed to ban the account. Instead, he was afraid of Transdimensional Review's computer technology …
The video was stored in his own server.
The account was also an ordinary user.
Yet, such an ordinary video and account couldn't be banned?!
Even after deleting the resource files and restarting the server countless times, he couldn't erase any content related to Transdimensional Review's account.
In fact, he couldn't even delete the comments and bullet comments of ordinary viewers …
This was no longer something that could be explained by "technology."
All the programmers who witnessed this scene felt their worldview crumble.
This was no different from an ordinary person flying into space only to discover that the Earth was really being carried by an elephant …
When Director Yu thought back to the contents of Transdimensional Review's first two videos and the technical department's video analysis report, the unease and fear in his heart intensified.
"S-Director, what should we do now?"
"Send someone to inform Chief Zhang of the latest development. We'll continue deleting the video!"
"We've deleted it over a hundred times already. It's useless."
"Block all user access to Transdimensional Review's account, then!"
"We've tried that before, but it's useless …"
"What do you think we should do, then?!" Director Yu shouted hoarsely, "Tell me, what should we do?!"
"…"
The programmer's body trembled. Lowering his head, he turned around and left silently.
"Hu …"
Director Yu closed her eyes and covered her face with her hands. She let out a heavy sigh.
Maybe …
Maybe everything was real …
…
At the same time, at Jinzhou City's train station, a group of five people alighted from the high-speed train and entered a hidden office through the station's staff passage.
"Hah."
The person leading the group was a middle-aged man. After putting down his phone, which had just finished playing the "third review video," he sighed heavily.
"Based on the latitude and longitude analysis of the video and the UP's accent, the location should be in Jinzhou City. Do you have anything to add to the search plan?"
