Chapter 255. Strategy and Tactics
Compared to the passers-by like Han Qingwen and his classmates, Wang Ze is much hard-core in the animation group.
Not long after the Meng Zhan announced that the list of participating characters had just been listed, the group had already begun to formulate a combat plan.
[Demon King of the Third Day]: @All members, everyone must keep the true love votes. This must be used in the final decisive battle. Don’t vote randomly.
[Suhang Nursing Home]: How do we join? The girl is Tian Qianai and the boy is Feng Zhemu?
【artzey】: Yes, but it also depends on the grouping. If the role of "Music Girl" matches, we have to help the relatively weak side of the investment, but try not to use true love votes in advance.
[Sand Sculpture Is Not Killing]: I contacted the female fans of "The Knight of Olympus". They want to vote for their own male lead, but they have a relatively small number of people. We can join forces with them and let them leave the true love votes of female characters to Tian Qianai.
【Iron Bones】: Damn, so smart!
[Demon King on the Third Day]: During the audition, we can just vote casually. When the official vote is officially launched, you can try to bring some relatives and friends with an account to vote.
Seeing the conversation in the group, Wang Ze was a little excited.
These older office workers prefer the implicit expressions of "Classic Literature Society Series" compared to "Music Girls", so this cute battle decided to support "Classic Literature Society Series". Their biggest wish is to see the two protagonists Tian Qianai and Feng Zhemu be crowned, so that the two who were not together in the animation can be reunited.
According to the rules of Meng Zhan, the group soon had some basic combat policies and combat plans.
First of all, it is naturally the use of true love tickets. Everyone keeps true love tickets and uses them when the characters compete with other popular characters. Even a form is uploaded in the group to register everyone's use of true love tickets.
Secondly, it is to join forces with fans of other works that have no direct competition with the work. For example, "The Knight of Olympus" is a girl-oriented work. In which the male characters are strong and the fans are mainly women. They have no obsession with popular female characters. If women vote for true love, they have no goal. Therefore, people who have relationships in the group win over the other party's influential fans and reach a cooperation.
Again, it is the use of tactical voting. Fans should not only pay attention to voting with their own works, but also to the voting of competitors. For example, in "Music Girl", Xiao Wei and Xiao Ling are the two most popular characters, while the other three are slightly inferior. So, what fans of "Classic Literature Club Series" most want to see is that these two popular characters are eliminated by the characters in other works. If they have the chance, they will even use the true love vote on their opponents.
Finally, it is to win over other users called "loose tickets". Not everyone is as keen on cute battles as Wang Ze and his group members. Many of them are just simple attention, have never even seen all the works, and have no clear voting goals. They often vote just for rewards. These people are actually the majority, and striving for as many loose tickets as possible is also an important part of the battle.
Of course, what Wang Ze and the others could have thought of, how could fans of other works have never imagined that, for a moment, before the first audition, fans from various families crossed the sea and showed their magical powers to win the vote.
For example, those who can make videos produce support edits, those who can write articles write long insights, and more fan-painting promotions. The post bars and Weibo topics of each work are also discussed and promoted about Meng Zhan.
Since China's real-name authentication is very strict, a person theoretically only has a Hatsune Video Network account, it is not realistic to rely on fans to stand out in a work. It is the kingly way to win the votes of passers-by.
This led to the registration peak of Hakonica Video Network's website many years after it was built. In just half a month's warm-up period, it increased by more than 700,000 users. Some people who had not registered before were certified for voting or others' persuasion.
When Liu Xueyan, editor-in-chief of Hakonic Video Network, saw this situation, he truly understood the reason why Xu Rui had to work hard to launch this "meaningless" cute battle.
Compared with ordinary activities, the audience has higher participation and enthusiasm for participation. This enthusiasm will be transformed into excellent publicity, allowing more people to know the works and Hatsune Video Network.
For example, in "Classic Literature Society Series", although this work completed the first Grand Slam of Fantasy Electronics in the annual animation selection, many people still haven't watched it because of the subject matter or inherent impression. However, after the promotion of fans, some people will try to get in touch with this work and eventually fall in love with it, which is excellent for the work.
As for the promotion of the website, it is even more obvious. Not to mention those who ask their parents and grandparents to register for the website to vote, the promotion between friends alone has increased the website's users. Today, Hatsune Video Network is no longer just the website that only had animation-related websites at the beginning. More diversified content is enough to attract ordinary audiences and eventually stay and convert it into paid users.
At this point, anyone who has a little understanding of the industry can already see Xu Rui's intentions and amazed at his move.
Due to Hatsune Video Network's influence and first-mover advantage, if other websites want to do similar activities, they will inevitably be labeled as follow-up. Moreover, what's the point of making your character the most popular on a miscellaneous website?
In mid-September, the first round of voting began.
Thousands of characters are divided into arrays for voting, and the top thirty-two in each group will qualify for subsequent voting.
People were surprised to find that the list of characters was too detailed. Any characters that appeared in the animation and had dubbing were on this list, including some passers-by characters that no one noticed. When marveling at the details of Hatsune Video Network, people also felt the fun of discovering the details of the works.
In just one day, major forums, Weibo, and QQ groups were discussing about cute wars, and various canvasses continued and the voting was very fierce.
During the audition stage, fans don’t have to worry about their works that have combat arrangements, but they don’t care at all.
Many fan groups have chosen to hide vote counts, that is, they do not take out all their strength during the audition stage, but just maintain a mid-level level that can qualify. On the one hand, this can confuse the opponent and make them miscalculate the voting potential of this work. On the other hand, it can also allow the grouping to be arranged to be relatively weak and unpopular opponents to maintain their strength.
