Chapter 1052 1152. Winning streak and losing streak
"Temporarily turn off the gift effects in the live broadcast room, adjust the technology to force the subtitles in the live broadcast room to be listed above the screen, and ask the staff on the server to keep an eye on me and be ready to use the backup server at any time. Network problems must not affect the live broadcast." After the head of the backstage technical department finished giving instructions, he tore off his tie and breathed a sigh of relief.
Under the control of the air conditioner, the temperature of the technical center has been kept at around 24 degrees, which is the most comfortable temperature, but Lin Peng has been sweating profusely after working here for less than an hour.
Because the pressure is too great.
You should know that the big anchors who used to live broadcast, the most powerful top anchors, have an average of only about 200,000 online people on weekdays. Even during peak hours, no anchor's real online number has exceeded one million.
But today, in the live broadcast room of the Saturn Award, the real online number of people increased from 260,000 to five million in less than an hour!
You should know that behind each of the five million "ones" are real users who are watching the live broadcast in front of the computer, without any network virtual users filling in, all of them are real audiences.
The key is not only that, the data is still growing at a crazy speed. The server, which is known as the strongest in the country, is finally under extraordinary pressure at this moment.
And many of the Stars Live Streaming supervisors, including Lin Peng, also felt great pressure.
You should know that in the plan they made, the actual number of people online in the peak of the live broadcast room this time was only 3 million, which was their best estimate. Even at that time, many people thought that if it could exceed 1 million, it would be a perfect victory.
But now the results are better than expected, but everyone is surprised and scared at the same time, because the results are too good, so good that they are a little panicked.
The "perfect result" of one million was broken in less than ten minutes after the official broadcast, and the predicted peak of three million was achieved in the five-minute preview before Nie Wei appeared, and five minutes later, when Nie Wei and Shu Chang appeared on the red carpet together, the entire live broadcast room broke through 5 million viewers at once.
Sometimes too good results are a bad thing, because they are not fully prepared to deal with such a large number of viewers.
Fortunately, when the company was first established, Nie Wei spent a lot of money on the server, so it did not cause network congestion for a while. However, if the number of viewers continues to grow at this rate, the pressure on the server will become greater and greater, and it will eventually collapse.
All people in the company, even those on vacation, were notified by the company to go to work. Everyone was ready to deal with various network conditions at any time, just like preparing for a war.
Even the newly appointed CEO Liu Jing came to the headquarters of Fanxing Live to supervise the battle in person, and announced on the spot that all staff who worked overtime that day would double their bonuses at the end of the month as long as they could perfectly complete today's live broadcast tasks.
There must be brave men under heavy rewards. Under the stimulation of doubling the bonus, even the staff who were called back to the company on vacation had no resentment in their hearts. They all rolled up their sleeves and prepared to work hard, and they must win a beautiful victory.
The same is true for all the senior executives of the live broadcast company. They know very well that this accident is both a difficulty and an opportunity. If they succeed, then the development of their Fanxing Live will surely reach a higher level.
The audience knew how much trouble they had brought to the live broadcast company because of their influx into the live broadcast room. The scene where Nie Wei put on a suit jacket for Shu Chang and held an umbrella to protect her from the rain was broadcast live to all the audience by the camera. Countless single dogs, both male and female, were stuffed with a mouthful of dog food at this moment.
It smells so good!
"Oh, if there is a boy who is willing to hold an umbrella for me and put a coat on me, I will marry him immediately."
"He is rich, talented, gentle and caring. Why can't I meet such a good man?"
"Wake up, you should have Shu Chang's appearance and figure first, and then talk about the next one."
"Shu Chang must have saved the earth in her previous life, no, she saved the Milky Way, no, she saved the universe!"
"Why do I feel that Nie Wei is the one who saved the universe?"
"Don't people care about the cheongsam that Shu Chang is wearing? It's so beautiful. I want to go out and buy a cheongsam to wear now."
The subtitles began to roll quickly after Nie Wei and Shu Chang appeared, and the number of people in the live broadcast room also increased rapidly. It took only five minutes for Nie Wei and Shu Chang to walk the red carpet, and the number of people in the live broadcast room increased by nearly one million in such a short time.
The backup server of Fanxing Live Broadcast Company has been preheated and is ready to start at any time. At present, everyone knows that six million is far from the limit of tonight's live broadcast. The next award ceremony is the highlight.
As expected, when the first Best Screenwriter Award was announced, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room also exceeded 7 million without any suspense.
Watching Nie Wei walking towards the podium with a calm face on the screen, Lin Peng, the head of the technical department, immediately ordered the preparation to start the backup server.
With the startup of the backup server, the audience who clicked into the live broadcast room next will be automatically assigned to the temporary No. 2 live broadcast room.
"I am honored to receive this trophy. A good story is the foundation of a successful film. Next, I will use my fullest enthusiasm to create more works. Thank you everyone." Nie Wei was on stage for more than ten seconds and ended his acceptance speech.
The host didn't react for a while, until he saw Nie Wei walk down the podium and wave to the audience in the stands, then he realized that it was over, but it was too fast.
How can a man be so fast! This is not normal.
The host was complaining, but he still had to save the situation for Nie Wei, smiling and praising Nie Wei's concise language, but he didn't know that Nie Wei was confident that he would not stand on the podium only once, so he kept some words to say later.
However, Nie Wei's actions caused a storm in the live broadcast room, and countless "666666" on the screen were followed by a series of praises from netizens.
"Nie Wei is awesome. This may be the shortest acceptance speech I have ever seen."
"In the past, when I watched award ceremonies, the winning artists wanted to give a speech on the stage and spoke as long as they could. But Nie Wei was cool enough. He only spoke a paragraph and spoke calmly. He was not excited at all. If I didn't understand English and knew that the presenter was indeed Nie Wei, I would have thought that he was on stage to accept the award on behalf of others."
"This is called the style of a general, don't you understand? It's just a Best Screenwriter Award. It's nothing."
"Why did you say that this award was like a kindergarten red flower? This is the Saturn Award for Best Screenwriter, which means that many people agree that Nie Wei's script is the best science fiction script in all aspects. What a great honor it is, don't you understand!"
"Just swipe 6666666 and it's done."
While this group of people were talking, Nie Wei had already sat back in his seat and handed the trophy to Joseph next to him. The boy looked at the trophy with curiosity, as if he could study a flower.
"Is it beautiful?" Nie Wei asked with a smile.
"It's pretty good." Joseph answered subconsciously, and then realized that it was Nie Wei who asked him. He felt a little embarrassed and quickly returned the trophy to Nie Wei.
"Maybe you will get it soon. Your own trophy must be more beautiful, right?" Nie Wei took the trophy and smiled and gave Joseph a sip of milk. It was unclear whether it was a fairy milk or a poison milk.
Nie Wei had studied the list of nominees. In her opinion, Joseph's main opponents were McLean and Waltz. McLean was nominated for the best supporting actor for "The Hobbit", and Waltz was nominated for the movie "Django Unchained".
Both of them are old actors and are well-known golden supporting actors in Hollywood, especially McLean, who has been playing supporting roles throughout his acting career. It can be said that he has achieved the ultimate in being a competent supporting actor.
Joseph's acting skills are not as good as these two, but he also has an advantage that no one else has, that is, he was nominated for "Inception", the most popular movie of the year.
The influence of a movie sometimes affects the judges' judgment, or maybe the judges of this year just like young and capable handsome guys. Anyway, everything is possible before the final result comes out.
As for Tom Hardy, another actor in "Inception" who was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor, Nie Wei was not very optimistic. When he was writing the script, he focused more on the role of the Sentinel played by Joseph, and Tom's pretender was not as much as the Sentinel.
Moreover, in terms of the vividness of the characters, the Sentinel is more vivid than the pretender.
So when the two competed for this award, Tom Hardy's pretender was basically eliminated. I didn't see that the actor himself didn't even come to participate in the Saturn Awards today, and he obviously gave up.
There is no way. In fact, Nie Wei felt incredible that Tom Hardy could be nominated for this award. I don't know if the judges of the Saturn Awards really have some problems in their brains to let these two characters be nominated at the same time.
Soon it was time for the Best Art Director Award. Diaz, the art director of Inception, was shortlisted for this award, and after the result was announced, Diaz also successfully won the award.
The 40-year-old white uncle was very excited, because this was the first time he won such a heavyweight award. He was very happy on the podium and talked endlessly, which was in sharp contrast to Nie Wei's super short acceptance speech before. Finally, after two reminders from the host, he hastily ended his speech, and the expression on his face when he left the stage was also unsatisfied.
After returning to his seat, Diaz was the first to hand the trophy to Nie Wei, just like a child asking for credit from the teacher.
Just now on the podium, he also thanked Nie Wei many times over and over again, because in his opinion, without Nie Wei's support, he would never be able to step onto such a big stage in his life.
"Diaz, your talent should have been matched with such a trophy. Put it in the company's honors display room and let the younger generations have a good look at it."
"Yeah." Diaz nodded in agreement. If you don't return to your hometown, you will be like a splendid night. Such a proud honor should be shown off to those guys.
On the Internet, the Saturn Award live broadcast room was also full of 666666.
"Currently, two shots and two hits, the hit rate is 100%. The big brother who said he wanted to eat shit is safe for the time being."
"This award is not watered at all. The scene layout, lighting, etc. of "Inception" are very artistic. It's just that the big brother who received the award was not famous before, so he was not listed as a popular candidate. But now it seems that the Saturn Award still emphasizes strength. Diaz deserves the award."
"This guy has thanked Nie Wei for five or six times on stage. Is it necessary to flatter him so blatantly?"
"What do you know? There are many good horses, but few good horse trainers. If there was no Nie Wei, would he have the glory he has now? Anyone with a conscience will be grateful, okay?"
"Stop arguing. There will be another award nominated for "Inception" soon. Everyone, watch carefully and cheer for Nie Wei."
"Nie Wei is awesome! Brush up."
Unfortunately, what was destined to disappoint these millions of netizens was that "Inception" lost the Best Original Score and Best Costume awards. Even the Best Special Effects, which netizens thought would win nine out of ten awards, was eventually taken away by "Avengers".
"What? There must be something fishy going on. The special effects of Inception are the most amazing I've ever seen. I've also seen The Avengers, but they can't compare to Inception."
"How could they lose the special effects award? That's not normal."
"There must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Why do I feel like something big is going to happen?"
The netizens' dissatisfaction is justified. If the failure of Best Original Score and Best Costume was within Nie Wei's expectations, the failure to win the Best Special Effects was beyond Nie Wei's expectations.
When the result of the Best Special Effects was announced, Nie Wei couldn't help but frown. Although he relaxed his brows in an instant and applauded for the Avengers' award, his inner dissatisfaction did not dissipate.
He was unwilling to accept the loss of this award.
In terms of special effects, he really thinks that Inception is the best among all the nominated films this year. Although it does not have the battlefield scene of millions of people fighting like The Hobbit, nor is it as natural as Life of Pi, but in terms of creativity, Nie Wei thinks his movie is the best.
Whether it is the inverted city or the use of so many specially developed physical special effects props, these are all pioneering. Inception is almost a movie that combines computer special effects and physical special effects to the extreme, but it still did not win the award. Nie Wei is naturally upset.
At this time, the host announced loudly on the stage that the trophy for the best supporting actor would be awarded next.
Thank you Qiang Love Rong for your generous reward of 1,000, and thank you Fantasy Paradise for your generous reward.
