The Creator of the Second Dimension

In the evening, Ningjiang High-tech Development Zone.

The logo of Tomato Video Network is a bitten tomato. The headquarters of one of the largest video websites in Huaguo is a six-story building, and the third floor of the building is where the editorial department of Tomato Video Network is located.

With the popularity of Internet 2.0 and smart phones, multi-platform video viewing has become the norm. Tomato Video Network is the leader in this wave. mobile platform.

At the same time, Tomato Video Network also has a complete industrial chain, from animation, movies, TV dramas, to variety shows, news, etc., high-quality output content is also one of the reasons why it has become the industry leader, and high-quality content is screened and pushed to the audience In front of him is the responsibility of the editorial department.

The editorial department is a department with an irregular schedule. It has already passed the off-duty time, but there is no sign of the office ending its work.

Liu Xueyan, an editor in the animation section of the editorial department, picked up the cup, but found that the coffee in it had already been drunk, so she stood up and went to the company's coffee machine, just in time to meet Zhang Ke, a newcomer in the same department.

"Brother Xueyan, are you working overtime today?"

Zhang Ke is a beautiful girl. She just joined the company last fall and is still in the stage of doing odd jobs. She doesn't have the strength to start a small channel by herself, but she is still full of energy and full of energy every day.

"Yes, how about you?"

Liu Xueyan asked casually, but what was on her mind was how to do next week's video topic.

"Then I'll work overtime too. It's boring to be alone at home."

Zhang Ke pursed his lips and smiled, then poured a cup of coffee.

"By the way, brother Xueyan, this weekend"

Before the other party finished speaking, they were interrupted by a ringtone of the phone, which was Liu Xueyan's phone.

"Excuse me."

Liu Xueyan nodded, then connected the phone and walked towards the office.

"Xue Yan, has your animation team organized any special activities recently?"

The voice from the operation and maintenance team of the technical department came from Gao Gao. He joined Tomato Video Network at the same time as Liu Xueyan, and he has been working in this line for ten years.

"Special event? No, what's the matter?"

Liu Xueyan stopped in his tracks, a little confused, he leaned on the railing of the corridor, and watched the flow of people leaving get off work outside through the window.

"It's strange. We have monitored that the number of visits to the animation area has suddenly increased by more than ten times. I thought it was something you did?"

Lao Gao is also at a loss. Although the animation area has a lot of traffic, it is usually on weekends or at night when the animation is updated. It is really strange that the number of visits suddenly increases at this point. Called Liu Xueyan.

"Ten times???"

Liu Xueyan's eyes widened. This data is basically the value when the latest episode of "The Bandit King" was broadcast, but "The Bandit King" is broadcast every Sunday at 8:00 pm, and the first episode was just finished last night. What happened today? There are still so many visits?

"I'll go take a look first, and hang up first."

Hurriedly returning to his seat, Liu Xueyan saw the traffic data sent by Lao Gao. Indeed, starting from 3:00 p.m., the traffic in the animation area has risen sharply, and according to the current progress, it can continue to rise.

"What's wrong, brother Xueyan?"

Zhang Ke stretched his head over, his eyes full of doubts.

"Do we have any special video to upload today?"

Liu Xueyan asked, and then opened the animation section of Tomato Video Network.

"It seems that the public display of the cooperation with Ningda Animation is going online today?"

At the same time Zhang Ke was answering, Liu Xueyan also saw an unfamiliar work that ranked first on the daily ranking list in the animation area.

"Voice of the Stars".

"This is it?"

Liu Xueyan saw that "Voice of the Stars" had surpassed 500,000 hits, over 300,000 recommendation votes, and over 10,000 comments. The upload time of this video was only 11:00 noon today.

In other words, this video reached such data within eight hours without any website recommendation.

"is that a lie?"

Liu Xueyan clicked on the video, and it can be seen that this video is indeed a public display of the animation graduation project of Ningda University. Out of the principle of fairness, the video does not indicate the author, and only has a number of 233.

"Zhang Ke, take a look at this video called "Voice of the Stars" and ask the technology to pull its relevant data."

Liu Xueyan commanded, and then scrolled through the comments.

It’s not like he hasn’t encountered such a sudden explosion of data. In the past when video competitions were held, some people spent money to swipe and click, but this kind of swipe can be seen at a glance. The comments are generally shoddy, and most of them are copied and pasted. , and all of them were speeches from first-class trumpets.

But "Voice of the Stars" was different, Liu Xueyan was the first to read a comment from a level five member.

[The Shepherd of the Library]: This may be the best animation I have seen this year. This animation reminds me of my original intention when I first came into contact with this industry. Thanks to author No. 233 and "Voice of the Stars" , I thought that domestic animation would stagnate for a long time, but I didn't expect to see the dawn here.

"Fuck, the shepherd doesn't boast like that, who can stand it?"

Seeing this comment, Liu Xueyan basically understood the ins and outs of the matter.

This [Library Shepherd] is a well-known blogger in the animation area and an industry insider. He often publishes film reviews and film analysis, and has a total of 300,000 followers. I reposted "Voice of the Stars" in my feed, which is the fundamental reason why this video suddenly exploded in popularity.

Scrolling down, Liu Xueyan saw more comments about the content of the video.

[Steamed buns are delicious]: This animation reminds me of my first love. Alas, we also entered different high schools at that time. If I had been braver at that time, maybe the result would have been different.

[luo1219]: This picture is so powerful, every frame can be screenshotted and used as wallpaper!

[Terror Dawn]: Even light has to travel a distance of eight years, which is really unimaginable. For the first time, I felt the insignificance of human beings and the vastness of the universe! ! !

[Squirrels don't eat candy]: This ending is too uncomfortable, I almost cried in the office.

[Send popsicles in the snow]: The heroine's voice is so nice, I just repeated it more than 50 times.

These reviews are all from four or five advanced users, and you can see that they are almost unanimously favorable.

The more Liu Xueyan watched, the more curious she became about this animation called "Voice of the Stars", so she hurriedly clicked the play button and finished watching this short animation with headphones on.

After the end of the film, the film automatically paused, and Liu Xueyan took off the earphones as if helplessly.

He stood up, not noticing that Zhang Ke, who was next door after watching the animation, was already in tears. Liu Xueyan didn't say anything, bought a pack of cigarettes in the supermarket downstairs of the company, and came to the atrium.

He has not smoked for nine years.

Lighting a cigarette, letting the intoxicating smoke infiltrate his lungs, Liu Xueyan exhaled a long breath, like sighing with emotion.

Liu Xueyan took out her mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers with almost no memory, but did not press the dial button for a long time.

This is his ex-girlfriend's mobile phone. The two spent high school and college together, but they finally separated after graduation because of different places. After that, Liu Xueyan quit smoking and devoted himself to work, but unexpectedly Today's short animation actually gave him the throbbing he had before.

It was like a heart that had been dry for a long time, suddenly encountered an orgasm, and in a trance, Liu Xueyan realized that he hadn't forgotten anything.

After hesitating for a long time, Liu Xueyan finally dialed this number. Perhaps what he wanted was an answer he already knew in his heart.

Surprisingly, the number did not stop, and after a burst of beeps, the call was connected.

"Hello."

However, there was a childish and childish voice on the other side, making Liu Xueyan unable to say a word.

"My mother is cooking, who are you?"

The child's innocent question caused Liu Xueyan to have mixed feelings. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke.

".Sorry, wrong number."

Then hung up the phone.

The obsession of the past ten years seemed to fall apart in an instant, but it was followed by incomparable relaxation. Liu Xueyan smiled bitterly, as if laughing at herself, but also as if she finally let go.

At this time, his cheeks turned cold, and he realized that it was Zhang Ke who followed with two cans of iced coffee. The newcomer was panting, but his face was full of brilliance.

"Brother Xueyan, let's have dinner together first."

Zhang Ke said, with a slight trace of nervousness and anticipation.

"Okay, let me treat you."

Liu Xueyan took the coffee and looked up subconsciously.

In the gradually darkening sky, a dim star is shimmering.
