Is high-quality content income inferior to the title party? Bilibili CEO Chen Rui: Will replace playback times with video playback minutes for public welfare | Bilibili | Chen Rui

Bilibili will replace the current external playback count with playback minutes. On June 26th, Bilibili's 14th anniversary celebration, Bilibili Chairman and CEO Chen Rui gave a speech with the theme of "Nice to Meet You", sharing three things that Bilibili has focused on in the past 14 years, as well as Bilibili's development in the UP main content creation ecosystem, commercial revenue, and other aspects. Replacing the number of views with more realistic playback minutes, as the main external display number of Bilibili videos, I believe this is a more useful reference for users to determine whether the video content is good enough and worth clicking on. Medium length videos are still the most mainstream content on Bilibili. Since 2009, Bilibili has developed from a niche ACG community to a comprehensive video community. It is reported that in 2022, the daily active UP of Bilibili increased by 42% year-on-year

In 2009, Fudan University pioneered a master's degree program in creative writing aimed at cultivating literary writers among universities in Chinese Mainland. The Literature and Creative Writing Center of Shanghai University, established in the same year, is one of the earliest creative writing majors in domestic universities.

The movie "The Disappearing She" that is currently being released has reminded some viewers of a pregnant woman falling off a cliff in Thailand in 2019. Recently, the party involved in the case, Wang Nuannuan, replied to netizens on a short video platform that the film company "came to Nanjing three years ago to obtain authorization from me.". This move has gained a lot of positive feedback from netizens towards the film. Previously, someone wanted to film the burial case at the Xinhuang playground in Hunan. The family of the victim Deng Shiping stated that the film company had not been authorized by their family, and many netizens accused the film company of "riding on the heat". This is a dilemma faced by film and television adaptation: not seeking the opinions of the parties involved and their families, and recklessly "demonizing" may harm their feelings and legitimate rights and interests; But the parties involved and their families are not professionals in film and television, and they may not understand even reasonable creations. According to legal professionals, for general social events
