Chapter 104

The audience of "The Rookie's Work Chronicles" is mostly young girls, especially students, as the content caters to their interests.

They eagerly await each new episode every week, which is full of creative ideas related to Random Entertainment. As they watch, they imagine and marvel at the impressive planning behind the scenes.

Especially when Jiang Juyou appears, her segments tend to go viral. Her clips spread all over the internet, with everyone amazed at how her mind works and how she comes up with so many interesting ideas.

The variety show has brought exposure to Timetrain, increasing their fan base, but most of the attention is directed towards Jiang Juyou, with many becoming dedicated fans of Random Entertainment.

A month quickly passed, and it was time for the official launch of Random iWatch.

Usually, only developers would care about such a launch date, but for some reason, everyone remembered that today was the day. Not only did they remember, but they were also excited. During their lunch break, people were asking on Weibo what shows would be available.

Just after the question was asked, Random iWatch's official Weibo account made an announcement—

The content of the announcement was quickly spread across various platforms, sparking heated discussions.

"Title: Gossip Lovers/Deadlock Entertainment Fans Announce New Paid Model [Concise Summary]!"

"Non-members: Four ad spots per episode, one minute per ad."

"Annual members: Ad-free throughout, no interruptions, follows the drama's broadcast calendar."

"Paid content: Exclusive dramas can be purchased to watch all episodes at once upon release."

"Other aspects are similar to other platforms. The last point essentially means advanced viewing, but unlike other platforms that offer it halfway through the series, this one allows it from the beginning, which is great for those who don't like waiting for episodes."

"Pricing is based on the production investment and number of episodes, pay per drama, similar to watching a movie."

"Today's TV drama is priced at 24 yuan, with 24 episodes, a realistic mystery theme."

"Only TV dramas offer advanced viewing, no changes for variety shows."

"P.S. Deadlock Entertainment's girl group survival show launches today."

Comments section:

"Uninstall the app to teach them a lesson, they've forgotten who they are after all the praise."

"...But I actually think it's okay."

"Did you guys even read it carefully before criticizing?"

"What? What's going on?"

"It's not a big deal, just buy it if you can't wait. The only downside is you might end up with a dud."

"I think it's not bad, you can decide whether to buy based on others' reviews after they've watched it."

"There are still drawbacks, the price is the same regardless of when you buy, it's only worth it if you buy after watching one or two episodes."

"Did anyone notice their drama calendar? It's weekly... only two episodes a week."

"I saw there are over a dozen upcoming dramas on the release calendar."

"Then just wait until it's finished before watching, we have plenty of time."

As for those capable of independent thought, they weren't her concern. People with brains could surely understand the pros and cons of this system, right?

Just like those willing to pay for it, if it's truly a good production, what's wrong with spending a bit to support it?

Since this reaction was anticipated, Jiang Juyou wasn't too concerned. She believed that future productions would prove her right.

At the moment, she was working overtime "creating" the venue for Timetrain's five-member group variety show.

It was past working hours, and Jiang Juyou was the only one left on this floor. Outside was pitch black, with only her office lit. Usually, she wouldn't think much of it, but these past few days were different.

Jiang Juyou looked at the venue she had created, then glanced at her office with only one desk lamp on.

"..."

"Can you turn on the office lights for me?" Jiang Juyou asked.

"Are you scared?" Cong Lixia's voice had a hint of excitement as she asked.

Clenching her fist, Jiang Juyou stubbornly replied, "No."

Jiang Juyou was using a virtual photo studio. The last time she used it was during her debut competition, where she only generated a trainee area. Although those praised promotional videos and concept films were all produced here, it hadn't really showcased its strengths.

This time, Jiang Juyou wanted to try something exciting--

On the map, an island stood in the ink-blue sea. Surging waves crashed against the pebble beach, the rushing water mixing with the sound of wind. Paired with a bright full moon, a quiet little town was born.

The facilities in the town were no different from an ordinary small town, making it hard to believe it wasn't real.

After planning out the map, Jiang Juyou asked something she had been curious about for a long time, "...How do you make people believe in the existence of something that suddenly appears? What if fans want to visit places their idols have been to in the future?"

"Information," Cong Lixia answered. "Didn't I tell you? As long as there's internet, I can manipulate it."

"Ah, I see. You can create information about it online, making people believe it really exists with evidence... But what if fans want to visit?" The moment Jiang Jiyou finished asking, she actually had the answer in her heart. In fact, Cong Lixia's previous sentence had answered two questions.

He said, "I can just turn it into a real place. As for the filming, there will definitely be parts built by the production team. We can explain any differences in the location as set designs."

Having resolved her confusion, Jiang Juyou rubbed her hands and looked at the eerie little town she had created, smiling with satisfaction.

In the upper right corner, the work's title read: "Rabbit Officer's Detective Notebook"

"Phew--" Jiang Juyou stretched her body, twisted her neck, then picked up her phone to message the manager of Gao Xiayu and the others.

"Jiang Juyou: The day after tomorrow, Monday, as soon as they finish classes, pick them up and send them directly to the airport. Don't tell them what they're doing, just whisk them away. I'll send you the detailed itinerary in a bit."

"Jiang Juyou: Oh right, tell Guan Xiaoxiao to bring Sang Mo and Chen Wu along too."

Pei Luming: Does anyone remember that we're all easily scared?
