The Creator of the Second Dimension

　　 In the evening, Ningjiang High-tech Development Zone.

　　Tomato Video’s logo is a tomato that has been gnawed away. The headquarters of one of the largest video sites in China is a six-story building, and the third floor of the building is where the tomato video editing department is located.

With the popularization of Internet 2.0 and smart phones, multi-platform video viewing has become the norm. Tomato Video Network is the leader in this wave. It is the first to launch mobile phone clients and cooperate with many mobile phone manufacturers to occupy people’s mobile platform.

At the same time, Tomato Video Network also has a complete industry chain, from animation, movies, TV series, to variety shows, news, etc., high-quality output content is 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 irregular schedules. The time has passed the off-duty time, but the office shows no sign of ending work.

　　 The editor of the animation area of ​​the editorial department, Liu Xueyan picked up the cup, but found that the coffee inside had already been drunk, so she stood up and went to the company's coffee machine, and met Zhang Ke, a newcomer in the same department.

　　 "Brother Xueyan, do you also work overtime today?"

　　 Zhang is a beautiful girl. She just joined the company last fall and is still in the stage of doing miscellaneous work. She does not have the strength to bring up a small channel by herself, but she is still energetic and full of energy every day.

"Yes, how about you?"

　　 Liu Xueyan asked casually, but what I was thinking about next week's video topic.

　　 "Then I also work overtime, it's boring to be alone at home."

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

　　 "By the way, Brother Xueyan, this weekend..."

　　 Before the other party had finished speaking, he was interrupted by a ringing of the phone. It was Liu Xueyan's phone.

　　 "I'm sorry."

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

　　 "Xueyan, has your animation team had any special events recently?"

　　 The voice of the old Gao from the operation and maintenance group of the technical department came through the phone. He and Liu Xueyan entered the Tomato Video Network at the same time and have been in this industry for ten years.

　　 "Special event? No, what's wrong?"

　　 Liu Xueyan stopped, a little confused, he held the railing of the corridor and watched the flow of people coming off work outside through the window.

　　 "It's weird, we have monitored that the number of visits to the animation area has suddenly increased by more than ten times. I thought you did some activities?"

Lao Gao is also confused. Although the animation area has a lot of traffic, it is usually on weekends or nights when the animation is updated, and the number of visits suddenly increases at this non-stop point. It is really strange. He is puzzled before playing. Asked Liu Xueyan on the phone.

　　 "Ten times????"

Liu Xueyan's eyes widened. This data is basically the value when the latest episode of "The King of Thieves" was broadcast, but "The King of Thieves" is played every Sunday at 8 o'clock in the evening. It just finished one episode last night. What about today? Still have so many visits?

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

　　Hurrying back to the position, Liu Xueyan saw the traffic data sent by Lao Gao. Indeed, starting at 3pm, the traffic in the animation area has risen sharply, and according to the current progress, it can continue to rise.

　　 "What's wrong, Xueyan brother?"

　　 Zhang Ke stretched his head over, his eyes filled with doubts.

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

　　 Liu Xueyan asked, and then opened the page of the animation area of ​​Tomato Video Network.

　　 "The public display in collaboration with Ning University Animation Professional... seems to be online today?"

　　 At the same time Zhang Ke answered, Liu Xueyan also saw the unfamiliar work that ranked first on the daily charts in the animation zone.

　　 "Voice of the Stars".

"This is it?"

　　 Liu Xueyan saw that "Voice of the Stars" had more than 500,000 hits, more than 300,000 recommended votes, and more than 10,000 comments. The upload time of this video was only 11 o'clock today.

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

"is that a lie?"

　　 Liu Xueyan clicked on the video, and you can see that this video is indeed a publicly displayed work of the Ning University animation major. Out of the principle of fairness, the video does not indicate the author and only has a 233 serial number.

　　 "Zhang Ke, look at this video called "Voice of the Stars" and find technology to pull its related data."

　　 Liu Xueyan commanded, and then flipped down the comments.

He has not encountered this kind of sudden explosion of data. When a video competition was held in the past, some people paid to click on it, but this kind of brush can be seen at a glance. The comments are generally shoddy and mostly copied and pasted. , And all the speeches of a trumpet.

　　 But "Voice of Stars" is different. Liu Xueyan was the first to see a comment from a fifth-level member.

[Shepherd in the library]: This may be the best animation I have ever seen this year. This animation reminds me of my heart when I first came into contact with this industry. Thanks to author No. 233, and thank you "Voice of Stars" , I thought that domestic animation would be stagnant for a long time, but I didn't expect to see the light here.

　　 "Fuck, the shepherd doesn't carry such a blow, who can stand it."

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

This [Library Shepherd] is a well-known blogger in the animation zone and an industry insider. He often publishes film reviews and film analysis, and he has a full 300,000 followers. However, he was at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I reposted "Voice of Stars" in my own dynamic, which is the root reason why this video suddenly exploded in popularity.

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

　　 [Bantou is delicious]: This animation reminds me of my first love. Alas, we also entered a different high school at that time. If I could be brave then, maybe the result would be different.

　　 [luo1219]: This picture is too strong, every frame can be taken as a wallpaper!

　　 [Dawn of Terror]: Even light has to travel a distance of eight years. It is unimaginable. For the first time, I felt the smallness 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 hostess’s voice is so good that I have repeated it more than fifty times.

　　 These comments are all from advanced users of Level 4 or Level 5. As you can see, almost all of them are unanimously praised.

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

　　 After the end of the film, the film was automatically paused, and Liu Xueyan took off the headphones as if helpless.

　　 He stood up and did not notice that Zhang Ke, who was watching the animation next door, was crying. Liu Xueyan didn't say anything. He bought a pack of cigarettes from the company's supermarket downstairs and went to the atrium.

　　 He hasn't smoked for nine years.

　　 lit a cigarette, letting the fascinating smoke infiltrate his lungs, Liu Xueyan exhaled a long breath, like sigh and emotion.

　　 Liu Xueyan took out his cell phone and dialed a series of numbers without recollection, but he did not press the dial button for a long time. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

This is his ex-girlfriend's mobile phone. The two spent high school and college together, but they finally separated after graduation because of a different place. Since then, Liu Xueyan has quit smoking and devoted himself to work, but he did not expect Today's short animation gave him the same throbbing.

　　 This is like a long-dried soul. Suddenly encountering a violent storm, Liu Xueyan realized that she hadn't forgotten anything.

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

　　 Unexpectedly, this number did not stop, and after a beep, the phone was connected.

"Hey."

　　 However, there was a milky and tender voice on the other side, which made Liu Xueyan unable to say a word.

　　 "My mother is going to cook, who are you?"

　　 The child’s innocent inquiry made Liu Xueyan mixed with emotions. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke.

　　 "...Sorry, I made the wrong call."

　　 immediately hung up.

　　 Ten years of obsession seemed to fall apart in an instant, and then it was incredibly relaxed. Liu Xueyan smiled bitterly, as if laughing at herself, and as if finally letting go.

　　 At this time, his cheeks chilled, only to realize that Zhang Ke was following him with two cans of iced coffee. The new man was panting, but his face was full of brilliance.

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

　　 Zhang Ke said, with a trace of nervousness and expectation.

　　 "Okay, let me treat you."

　　 Liu Xueyan took the coffee and looked up subconsciously.

　　 In the sky gradually entering the night, a dim star is gleaming.
