“But I don’t think Broken Continent is good enough to become a top search.” Tan Jinsheng said as he looked at Tan Jinqi. Although he was his brother, he had to admit that the current conditions of Broken Continent were not good enough to make it a top search.

“It now ranks second, one place higher than Nine Heavens,” Tan Jinyi said.

Tan Mo opened Weibo and heard Tan Jinyi say, “The top search terms for Broken Continentare much better than those for Nine Heavens.”

“What’s going on? Who bought the top search?” Tan Wenci was still in a daze.

Tan Mo cleared her throat and said to Tan Wenci with an embarrassed look on her face, “Brother Zhiqian bought it.”

After all, Tan Wenci had long got ready to buy the top search, but Wei Zhiqian beat him to it. Tan Mo felt a sense of guilt.

Tan Wenci complained, “Come on, again?”

“Brother Zhiqian doesn’t want me to lose to Nine Heavens,” Tan Mo said in a low voice.

“There, there. We’re family. It doesn’t matter who buys it,” Xu Mingzhen said with a smile. “As long as we can beat Nine Heavens.”

“But, who came up with the name of this top search?” Xu Mingzhen asked, trying to change the topic of their conversation.

“I did it,” Tan Mo said with a smile. “Nine Heavens has bought so much popularity for itself, and now it wants to beat us and humiliate us. Well, in that case, I’ll let them know what it feels like to be humiliated by others.”

“What do you mean?” Xu Mingzhen asked.

Tan Mo explained with a smile, “Right at this moment, Nine Heavens is going viral on the Internet. Although Broken Continent is released at the same time, only few people know about it. So, I devised a plan. Just look at the name of our top search. When people on the Internet, including the fans of the actors and actresses of Nine Heavens, see the keywords ‘mythology’, they will immediately think that this search term belongs to Nine Heavens. So, they will click on it. But for most of these people, they don’t even care about which TV series it is, they just want to see how amazing its special effects will be. Some of them only know Nine heavens, so they will misunderstand that this term means that the special effects of Nine Heavens are amazing, and they will click on it to see if it’s true. When they click on the link and watch the video, they will know that it’s not Nine heavens, but it doesn’t matter anymore, because the special effects of Broken Continent are perfect. They will like this clip. And after they watch the clip, they will choose to watch the whole TV series.” Tan Mo chuckled, “It’s no longer the age when popularity matters the most. In the past, as long as there are enough celebrities and superstars in a movie, people will be willing to watch it.”

“Time has changed, and so have people who watch TV series.” Tan Mo said, “They will no longer select a series solely because of those famous stars. Compared to watching a boring series that is starred by a group of people who have no acting skills but beautiful faces, people would rather choose to watch a well-made one, even if it’s not famous. Otherwise, Kefeng Films will not create a season airing theater. They know that the audience’s expectations are always changing. Kefeng is always seeking a breakthrough. They don’t want to follow the stream. They want to be the one who will always be at the forefront.”

Of course, Kefeng Films did it. No matter it was variety shows or the genre of movies and TV series, Kefeng would always follow the rule of innovation.

“Brother Zhiqian asked Kefeng for the clips we need.” No sooner had people present asked Tan Mo than she explained why there would be clips with new special effects.

This time, Tan Jinqi spent most of his money on production. Besides the filming, the cost of special effects production also accounted for a considerable proportion of the expenditure. Therefore, he endeavored to save as much money as possible. For example, except for Guo Shaoyu, who agreed to star the series solely because he and Tan Jinqi went way back, the other actors were all some C-list stars, whose prices were far lower than Gao Qiongyu and Li Hanfei.

As for the OST of this series, Tan Jinsheng was responsible for it. After all, he was a talented singer-songwriter. So, if his talent was left idle, it would be a waste of money! Moreover, he was Liu Shengtai’s disciple. In that case, Tan Jinsheng and Lu Xiangchen were fellow disciples.

Actually, Liu Shengtai had stopped taking on new students. He was very protective of Tan Jinsheng, his youngest disciple, which was just like he was his youngest son.

Liu Shengtai also planned to ask Lu Xiangchen to help Tan Jinsheng. He wanted Tan Jinsheng to join in the production of Lu Xiangchen’s new album and collaborate with him on a single. Next year, Lu Xiangchen was going on a concert tour. He wanted Tan Jinsheng to be a special guest at the concert. Although he said Tan Jinsheng would only be a guest, he was actually using the popularity of Lu Xiangchen’s concert to offer Tan Jinsheng a chance to become famous.

It could be said that Liu Chengtai had done everything he could for Tan Jinsheng.

Tan Jinqi did not want Tan Jinsheng to suffer a loss. He paid for the song according to Tan Jinsheng’s price in the music market.

Actually, Tan Jinsheng was a newcomer. He had not made any representative works before. Nor had he participated in any shows. So, his price was not very high. However, no matter how low the price was, Tan Jinqi was willing to pay him the money he deserved. After all, there was no reason to let his own family suffer a loss.

After Tan Jinsheng accepted the task of making the OST for Broken Continent, he had been asking Liu Shengtai for help. Liu Shengtai helped him with the song. Because it was Tan Jinqi’s first TV series, Tan Jinsheng attached great importance to it, and he made up his mind to create a suitable song for Tan Jinqi.

Tan Mo also helped Tan Jinsheng a lot. Because it was a genre of mythology, Tan Shuangsheng wanted to use classical music, which happened to be Tan Mo’s specialty. As a matter of fact, she often listened to her teacher play the zither. No one knew classical music better than her!

TanJinsheng collected a lot of classical songs, and Tan Mo also played a few of them to provide inspiration for him based on her memory.

Many of the songs that Tan Mo played had been lost.

At that time, Tan Mo was just like a classical music encyclopedia. No matter what style Tan Jinsheng wanted, Tan Mo could find it from her memory and play it for him. Not only did she want to help Tan Jinsheng better understand the features of classical music, but she also hoped that the valuable experience would play a great role in his future development. After all, the songs that Tan Jinsheng heard had never been heard by anyone else, even those famous artists.

“Wonderful!” Tan Jinsheng slapped his thigh excitedly. “In this way, the popularity that Nine Heavens achieved previously is all ours now.”

Tan Jinyi smiled, “Well, I guess the crew members of Nine Heavens are having a rough day.”

“They deserve this. If they concentrated on the promotion of their series and stopped humiliating Broken Continent. Even if their popularity is higher than ours, I won’t do anything to them,” Tan Mo sneered.

Tan Jinqi checked the comments on the Forum of the top search terms of Broken Continent.

“Its special effect is great. Are you guys sure it’s not a movie but a TV series?”

“This is just like a Hollywood blockbuster!”
