The update has been successfully published.
Unbeknownst to Bai Li, her newly edited post had already been successfully published on social media.
Once it was released, the account's data started jumping wildly.
Unfortunately, Bai Li did not have message notifications enabled, so she had no way of knowing.
At first, the flood of people didn't even have time to read Bai Li's post carefully; they all rushed to comment and grab the top spots.
--"First!"
--"sofa!"
"Hello, Mr. Bai!"
"Wuhu, finally Boss Bai is open for business again! Front row seats!"
In just one minute, the number of likes exceeded 1,000 and the number of comments exceeded 100, demonstrating its astonishing popularity.
The last time Bai Li posted an update, this account was still a newbie. She posted for a whole night, but no one paid any attention to it, not even a single like.
This time, Bai Li's account has completed official celebrity verification, and the account now has a bright red badge that is unique to celebrities.
After her account posts content, it will be automatically pushed to the top of the platform's feed.
In addition, Bai Li's account already has a fan base of over one million, so this content attracted a huge amount of traffic as soon as it was released.
As more and more people flooded into the account, people finally started to notice the content that Bai Li posted.
The four images are all meaningless, and their composition and color scheme are also strange.
It's like taking a snapshot with your phone's camera.
It's hard to imagine that this is an image posted on social media by the president of Day and Night Entertainment.
Because the photos were so abstract and difficult to understand, many people in the comments section didn't get it.
"Mr. Bai, your photography style... is truly unique! May I ask, would you like a photographer?"
"Where is the sand dune in the first picture?"
"Can anyone tell me what the plant in the second picture is? It looks so strange!"
"I don't understand it either. Are there any experts in the comments section who can analyze it?"
When someone asks a question, someone will naturally answer it.
There was no need for Bai Li to answer personally; the detectives in the comments section were far more resourceful than she had imagined.
—“As Mr. Bai has already mentioned in the caption, this is ‘Today’s Set Visit Diary,’ which means that these pictures are all from the film set. Currently, Day and Night Entertainment only has one known film and television project, so these pictures are very likely from Day and Night Entertainment’s latest science fiction film.”
—"Rumor has it that Day and Night Entertainment has registered a new copyright for 'Tian Gong,' which I guess is the name of their next sci-fi film. It looks like it'll be a very hardcore sci-fi movie. Looking forward to it!"
Perhaps it is precisely because of the bizarre layout of the photos posted by Bai Li and the ambiguous content they convey that people are so inclined to speculate.
Immediately, opinions in the comments section varied, and more and more people joined this "deciphering the mystery from the picture" game.
—"Figure 1 shows the shape of the sand dunes and the angle of sunlight. Combined with the reflection of what appears to be a windmill blade in the lower right corner, it is most likely the Gobi Desert in Northwest China. Based on this, it can be inferred that the movie's background is likely to be post-apocalyptic or wasteland style. Figures 2 and 4 also confirm this view."
—"Is the plant in Figure 2 a structure of metal and crystal? This is definitely not a known mineral or plant form on Earth! Is there a completely new ecosystem in 'The Craftsman'?"
—"A bold guess! The cobalt blue ceiling in Figure 3, the backlit human figures, combined with the desolation and what appears to be a windmill in Figure 1, could very well be the construction site of some kind of 'energy farm' or 'ecological dome'! Could the leak in Figure 4 be the trigger for the story? Could 'The Craftsman' be a story about humanity struggling to survive in extreme environments and touching upon unknown energy sources?"
"Although I don't understand it, it seems really impressive... The experts in the comments section are analyzing it very logically. It's like I'm taking a science fiction appreciation class? I'll bookmark this and see if it's true when the movie comes out."
……
By the time Bai Li noticed, the account already had over a thousand comments.
As Bai Li browsed through the pages, she marveled at how keen the observation skills and incredible imaginations of this generation of netizens were.
Some people may not have guessed the key point, but they are already close to the truth.
These were all done intentionally by Bai Li.
The more obscure something is, the deeper its mystery becomes.
"The Craftsman" is, after all, a science fiction film, and its closed-book script is one of its selling points.
Its promotional materials naturally cannot be as straightforward as those for "Asking the Immortals".
Although "Asking Immortals" did not use any popular celebrities, all the actors were good-looking.
Although Bai Li was unwilling to admit it, "Asking Immortals" did indeed use some techniques from commercial films.
When promoting, focusing on core selling points such as cultivation and attractive ordinary people, and using straightforward and direct advertising, yields particularly good results.
However, "The Craftsman" is completely different from "The Immortal". Even the film's color tone is darker and heavier. It is a rare post-apocalyptic background in foreign science fiction. The actors are not all handsome men and beautiful women. They are more hardcore and have strong acting skills.
Therefore, the promotional strategy for "Tian Gong" is completely different from that for "Wen Xian".
Before releasing this set of photos, and even before arriving at the film set today, Bai Li had already discussed the specific marketing plan with the company's operations department.
The fact that Bai Li took photos and posted them on social media was actually part of their plan.
She deliberately took photos in a casual and abstract manner, which created a sense of mystery and attracted the public's curiosity.
For example, mysterious legends such as the Loch Ness Monster and crop circles often originate from a blurry, elusive, low-resolution image that has attracted countless scholars and tourists for centuries in search of the truth.
In reality, the Loch Ness Monster was photographed by a journalist to attract attention, and the crop circles were man-made by locals to boost local tourism.
Bai Li's four seemingly random and meaningless photos are actually part of a strategy designed to attract traffic and attention to the film "Tian Gong".
Crop circles share a similar concept with the Loch Ness Monster, which has been a sensation for half a century.
Sure enough, within hours of Bai Li posting the update.
The trending topics "Bai Li visits the Tiangong Studio" and "Interpreting the Four Mysterious Images of Day and Night" quickly rose to the top of the search rankings, and the enthusiastic discussions among netizens caused the topic's popularity to continue to soar.
Initially, it was just fans of Bai Li and Zhouye Entertainment who were analyzing and discussing it. Gradually, more and more uninformed bystanders joined in.
