The staff at the National Television Station 's Science Education Channel, who were in charge of broadcasting the ACM competition, couldn't help but share their shock with their colleague Xiao Zhang after checking the backend data.
"Really?"
Xiao Zhang was quite surprised to hear this.
In previous ACM competitions, the number of viewers was basically fixed, fluctuating mostly around five thousand.
But did his colleague just say that the audience suddenly increased by tens of thousands this year?
So Xiao Zhang went to check the viewing data for the ACM competition being broadcasted live on the National Television Station 's Science Education Channel.
Indeed, there were more than 20,000 to almost 30,000 more viewers.
