The netizens who were paying attention to this thread had also noticed this phenomenon. Among the long list of websites that had undergone changes, the unchanging TPDb website was like a firefly in the night. It was so conspicuous.
"Strange, why hasn't the rating of this website changed?"
"Is it because the website is too small that the fake reviewers did not notice?"
"Impossible, the fake reviewers are not picky when it comes to ratings. Several websites that are much smaller than this website did not escape their hands. How could they let this one go?"
"What's more, this website has many users. You're just ignorant if you haven't heard of it, okay?"
"Ah, what website is this?"
"It's the Tengda Project Database. It contains the ratings and reviews of all Tengda Corporation projects, including every game and physical store."
"Tengda's own website? That probably locks the ratings … no wonder the fake reviewers can't do anything. "
"Definitely not. If you've been paying attention to this website, you'd realize that the scores on it change. Many projects have low ratings at the beginning and only gradually rise later. What's more, all the ratings can be said to be objective and fair!"
"That's right, this film is worth nine points!"
This post was originally meant to record the tragic situation of these websites being ravaged by the fake reviewers. However, as more and more people watched, the discussion went astray at some point in time.
It became 'Why isn't the rating of TPDb affected by the fake reviewers?'
There were many different opinions, but no one guessed correctly.
That was because the rating rules of TPDb had been hidden from the beginning and were not disclosed to the public at all.
The internal evaluation of Tengda's senior management, the comprehensive evaluation of ordinary employees, the comprehensive evaluation of authoritative media, consumer evaluation, and netizens' evaluation would be added to the total score according to different weights. A special formula would then be used to calculate the final score.
This rating system was definitely not the most perfect. After all, ratings were very subjective. However, it could minimize the influence of fake reviewers and malicious ratings to the greatest extent, allowing the final score to be infinitely close to the score that the work deserved.
Everyone found the netizens' discussions quite interesting as they flipped through the post.
Huang Sibo smiled. "I think these people might not be able to guess the specific rating rules of TPDb even if they guessed for half a year."
Zhu Xiaoce rubbed his chin. "Hmm … But won't the audience question the objectivity of this website? After all, this is our own website. We are both the contestants and the referees. There will always be some rumors. "
The smile on Huang Sibo's face deepened. "There will definitely be viewers, oh no, contrarians who will question the objectivity of this website. That's something unavoidable. After all, contrarians will always be able to find an inexplicable entry point."
"But … is that important?"
"We don't need to explain this at all."
"A website's credibility can't be established overnight. Under the supervision of all netizens, the website's credibility can only be established when there are enough projects on the website for a long time and the scores of these projects meet the expectations of most people."
"TPDb is Tengda's internal assessment mechanism. It directly determines the bonuses of each department. All internal employees are under Boss Pei's supervision. Who would dare to play tricks?
"The wall is a thousand feet high, having no desires makes it strong."
"As long as you have no desires and are not bribed by capital, this website will always remain fair and just."
"In other words, as long as Boss Pei is around, it's only a matter of time before this website becomes the standard for the entire industry!"
"Now, with the help of Tomorrow is Beautiful, TPDb has officially entered the vision of most ordinary netizens. This is a very good start!"
"Sooner or later, the ratings on this website will become the most authoritative ratings and become the standard for all industries!"
Zhu Xiaoce thought for a moment. "Then, what if other film review websites also introduce a similar mechanism?"
Huang Sibo smiled and said proudly, "I don't think that's very likely. After all, there are too many interests involved. I don't think the bosses of other websites can completely disregard their personal interests like Boss Pei.
"Of course, if other film review websites establish similar mechanisms so that the fake reviewers can't do anything, it would be equivalent to Tengda making progress in the entire industry. I believe Boss Pei would be very happy to see that happen.
"Speaking of which, no matter how the movie is on other websites, it would always get a fair review on TPDb.
"It's the same for Tengda's other projects. No matter how the outside world attacks or smears them, TPDb will always be like a warm haven. Here, all projects will receive the fair evaluation that they deserve.
"Boss Pei seems to be telling all employees that it's alright. I've seen your hard work, and I won't let anyone's hard work go to waste!
"I think that's one of the original intentions of Boss Pei when he created this website, right?"
Huang Sibo's face carried a certain pride that only Tengda's employees could understand.
…
"Ah-choo!
"Who's talking about me behind my back again …?"
Pei Qian rubbed his nose and continued browsing the web seriously.
He did not notice that TPDb had entered the vision of many netizens because he was paying attention to something more important.
The advertisements in Tomorrow is Beautiful had been over-interpreted!
At first, many viewers did not pay attention to these advertisements. They only saw them as meaningless background boards in the movie.
That was because the advertising plans of these brands were all original and did not clash with any existing advertisements. The logos were also collected from various departments and were different from any existing logos in the market.
Therefore, no one would be able to see anything wrong with them at first glance.
However, as various film critics dug deeper, more and more people realized that the advertisements in the movie seemed to have a deeper meaning. They began to study them crazily!
Many people browsed the movie two or three times just to study all the advertisements clearly.
After comparing them with the projects on TPDb, everyone was surprised to find that the logos of these advertisements were very similar to Tengda's existing industries.
For example, the advertisement of a certain website in the movie was obviously changed from Zhongdian Chinese Network's logo.
The logo of a certain virtual reality entertainment room in the movie also strangely resembled Fish-Catching Internet Cafe's logo. It did not feel like it at first sight, but the more one looked at it, the more familiar it became!
Therefore, many viewers became extremely interested in these brands!
Some went to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe to surf the internet, some ordered ROF units online, and some went to Zhongdian Chinese Network …
What made Pei Qian feel the most despair was the Fish-Catching Complex in Lincheng!
Pei Qian had been there once when it opened. He had thought that Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 2.0 would at most have an occupancy rate of sixty to seventy percent. In the end, it was full on the opening day!
What would the situation there be now?
Imagine you were a resident of Lincheng.
One day, you had nothing to do and strolled to the cinema.
After watching Tomorrow is Beautiful, you casually browsed through the reviews and saw a post called 'In-depth Analysis of the Brand Prototypes of Advertisements in Movies'.
You were surprised to find that the industries written in this post, including Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Fish-Catching Take-Out, ROF Computer-Installation, Upwind Logistics, and so on … were not far from here or at your doorstep!
At that time, you should choose:
Go and take a look, buy anything, and take a photo as a souvenir.
Suppress your curiosity and go home to sleep.
It was obvious what the majority of people would choose!
Pei Qian did not dare to ask Xiao Peng, the person-in-charge of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe in Lincheng. He was worried that his little heart would not be able to take such a painful answer.
The consequences would be unimaginable just thinking about it …
Pei Qian closed the webpage and looked out of the window in melancholy.
Forget it. I'd better make use of the time to think about what benefits my employees would not have …
