Chapter 210 Give me a moment
The filming of the first season of "Love Island" has finally been completed. After more than two months of closed filming in Mallorca, Spain, this real-life love story that has caused enthusiastic discussions in the UK The show is about to end.
How popular is the variety show "Love Island"?
There is a saying now that when two British people chat, if they are older, they will start with the weather; but if they are young, they will start with discussing "Love Island"...
In the more than two months since the reality show "Love Island" was broadcast, Freeview The number of users accessing the platform has doubled from more than 3 million in early July to now as high as 6 million. An average of 1.5 million users can be added in a month. This makes the number of users of the Freeview platform less than the total number of users of BSkyB. , which is not far behind. This is an amazing result!
Although BSkyB's users are higher-quality paid users, the current number of users will exceed 6 million in less than a year, which was something DigitalUK could not even imagine at the beginning.
Of course, such results cannot be said to be entirely due to "Love Island". Programs such as "Thetraitors" also have a lot of loyal viewers, coupled with SDTV's increasingly rich programs, and The increasing number of broadcast channels on the Freeview platform is also the reason why many users choose to join it.
However, the role played by "Love Island" can be seen from one piece of data.
Among the current 6 million users of the Freeview platform, more than 2 million users have replaced or installed new upgraded set-top boxes with online on-demand functions.
Among these 2 million users, as many as 86% have consumed paid on-demand content related to "Love Island"!
Initially, DigitalUK offered free installation of set-top boxes, and users were required to pay a deposit of 400 pounds. However, as set-top boxes produced in China began to replace locally produced set-top boxes, the deposit was eventually reduced to 200 pounds.
When these users replace the upgraded set-top box, because it is priced at 199 pounds, they do not need to pay additional money and can use the original deposit to deduct it.
As for the remaining deposit, they can choose to deposit it into their Freeview account, or they can choose to have it returned in cash.
However, the vast majority of users choose to recharge.
This also allowed DigitalUK to directly convert the huge deposits they received into their turnover.
This alone makes DigitalUK profitable.
And the popularity of "Love Island" has also benefited the Woaw website, because the voting channels for this reality show include text messages and the Woaw website, and SMS voting requires a fee, so many people choose to vote on the Woaw website. Take a vote.
This has also allowed the number of registered users of the Woaw website in the UK to increase by more than 3 million in the past two months.
As of now, the number of registered users of the Woaw website has exceeded 20 million worldwide, making it the social networking site with the highest number of users in the world.
……
The completion of filming of "Love Island" also means that Bonnie Stuart will also return to London.
Since the last time she learned that her cousin, Mrs. Bute, was pregnant with Barron's child, Bonnie went to Mallorca to supervise the filming of the "Love Island" reality show, and has not returned since Once in London, but at that time, Barron was already in the United States.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the entrance of the SEM Building. Barron sat in the back seat and looked at the entrance of the building through the car window.
With Chris as an "insider", Barron naturally knows Bonnie's whereabouts very well.
He knew that Bonnie was about to finish her work and walk out of the building.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Barron saw her in front of the SEM building... Today, Bonnie Stuart was wearing a burgundy long-sleeved hip skirt, black stockings, and crystal high heels. , she is already tall, and looking like this, although there is not much expression on her face, she is elegant and charming.
Just when Barron wanted to open the door and get out of the car, he saw a man getting out of the car from the side of the building and walking towards Bonnie.
Seeing the man approaching Bonnie holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand, Barron couldn't help but stare.
"You are so beautiful today, Miss Stuart, this is for you."
That man looked to be in his mid-twenties, wearing a suit and ties, with oily hair and pink face - well, this is how Barron feels.
When the other party said these words and handed the bouquet of flowers to Bonnie, Barron also got out of the car, straightened his clothes, and walked slowly towards Bonnie. go.
In fact, Barron couldn't tell what kind of relationship he had with Bonnie. If it was love - he didn't think it was true in his previous life. How pure love exists.
If anything, I'm afraid it would be more suitable for him to be with Bonnie. Although she doesn't come from a wealthy family, Barron doesn't think he really needs to find someone from a wealthy family. The eldest lady - using the energy of the other family, or a "family marriage"?
Haha, when you really encounter a crisis, can this kind of marriage connection ensure that the other party can help you?
If you really think so, it would be a bit naive. In his previous life, Barron often saw things like "flying off separately when disaster strikes".
Just like the marriage between the South Korean Prince Samsung and the princess of the Elephant Group, when the Elephant Group encountered a crisis, Samsung not only failed to help, but instead added insult to injury and attempted to acquire the Elephant Group...
So Barron doesn't mind the other person's background. Anyway, he believes that even in a marriage that seems to be a "well-matched" one now, the other person will become a "delay" in the near future, and his destiny will only depend on it. Own.
However, Barron also knows his own family affairs. If he is reincarnated, it is absolutely impossible for him to remain loyal in his relationship and give up the entire forest for a big tree.
So when Bonnie asked for a "temporary separation" because of Viscountess Bute's incident, Barron was already a little disappointed, but he was still willing to give Bonnie a chance, because he understood that unlike many What people think, in fact, is that girls from wealthy families are more likely to accept the other party's flirtation, because they have been exposed to it since childhood and are more likely to accept it.
On the contrary, girls who come from commoner backgrounds are more likely to be full of fantasies about love and look forward to a single-minded relationship.
If Bonnie needs to slowly accept this kind of thing, Barron can completely understand, and there is Viscountess Chris to help him comfort and "educate" her.
If Bonnie still can't accept it in the end, it only means that she is not suitable for him.
But just because he has such thoughts does not mean that he can tolerate others coveting his woman.
So when I heard from Mrs. Butt that someone had been trying to pursue Bonnie since the last time she returned to London, Barron would naturally appear to see who dared to pursue him. Woman - he and Bonnie haven't broken up yet.
Just as Barron was walking towards this side, Bonnie had already seen him.
If you observe carefully, you can see that her eyes lit up, but at this time there was another man standing between her and Barron.
"Thank you, Mr. Weston, but I can't accept it..."
"Why? Miss Stuart, I just hope to be a friend with you..."
“Because she is already married!”
Barron looked at Bonnie with a smile and walked towards her slowly... Well, he regarded the man holding flowers as nothing:
"Sorry, let me go, you are blocking me."
