You promised to make a bad movie, but your box office exceeded 10 billion?

Chapter 21 Ah, is that what I think?
Beijing, Douyin headquarters.

Zhang Nan is also the director of the operations department. In front of his computer screen, there is also a video showing the entire network data. The title of the video is also "The Past in the Square".

The difference is that there is a young man standing opposite him, looking at the leader expectantly.

"Mr. Zhang, I think this is an opportunity!"

The young man said excitedly, "This [Xihong Acting Film and Television] originally started in our Douyin, and "Dragon King" is also very popular and performs well in Douyin. The newly launched "Palace of the Past" series this time, although it is currently It’s only one episode, but the response has been great, and I think this is an opportunity for us to move into long-form videos!”

Not only is Xiaopo Station thinking about grabbing customers from Douyin, Douyin has also been planning to grab users of long videos, and Yao Qian is the person in charge of this area.

"I propose to contact [Xihong Film and Television] and sign them so that the [Once Upon a Time in the Square] series will be broadcast exclusively on Douyin!"

Zhang Nan nodded, "I watched the film. The quality is indeed good, and the response from the audience was also good."

"You will be responsible for this."

Yao Qian looked excited, and the boss made the decision. This matter is a done deal. This series of videos is only a small step, but it is a big step towards long-form videos for Douyin!

"By the way, what level of contract are you going to give them?"

Just when Yao Qian was about to walk out of the office, Zhang Nan suddenly asked one more question.

Yao Qian thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Sign A?"

Zhang Nan smiled and shook his head, "Xiao Qian, now is no longer the time to spend money to attract users. Now our family is the only one. If video creators want to be famous, they can only come to our platform!"

"Although they have other options for long videos, it is also beneficial for them to come to our platform, so the support does not need to be so great. Let's do it this way, sign B. If they are really talented in the future, they can also mention sign A. Yes!"

Yao Qian opened his mouth. He subconsciously felt that something was wrong. He had always thought that for a video platform like theirs, talent was the most important thing. Only by having excellent talents and creating wonderful videos could they be retained. user.

But after thinking about it, he felt that Mr. Zhang was right. Subscription B was already a very high salary. With Douyin’s current status, Subscription B was already better than Subscription A such as Xiaopozhan. There is really no need to sign A immediately.

In terms of looking at the overall situation, he is still far behind Mr. Zhang.

……

Zhejiang University of Communication, male dormitory.

Su You is currently writing the follow-up script to "Once Upon a Time in the Square". The points gained from "Dragon King" are enough for him to redeem the first few episodes of "Once Upon a Time in the Square". The reason why he did not film them all at once is to see the response to the first episode. , after all, shooting videos costs a lot of money.

woo woo woo...

At this time, his cell phone started buzzing and vibrating anxiously on the table.

"Hello, are you [Xihong Film and Television] the author of "Once Upon a Time in the Square"?"

The phone was connected, and a pleasant female voice came out.

"Hey! Who are you?"

"Oh, I am the sales director of Seven Walnuts, and we would like to discuss a cooperation with you!"

The female voice said eagerly, and then explained the purpose of her visit straight to the point, "You only need to insert an advertisement in "Once Upon a Time in the Square" that says something like 'No gifts for the holidays this year, only seven walnuts for gifts.' We are willing to pay. 20 in advertising fees.”

"20 million!"

Su You was still very happy. The investment in the filming of "Once Upon a Time in the Square" was higher than that of "The Dragon King", but it was only more than [-]. The rest of the money was used by Li Mingyue on shooting equipment. In other words, as long as he accepted this advertisement , they can get their money back immediately and even make a small profit.

His plan really worked!
"I need to think about this and contact you later."

But Su You controlled his excitement. Although the [Xihong Film and Television] account is now managed by him, the boss is Li Mingyue. This kind of matter definitely needs to be discussed with the boss.

"Second brother, you're confused!"

"Take it, why don't you take it?" "Why don't you just add a few advertising slogans, and the filming will be completed in a few minutes, and you will get 20!"

Li Zhenduo was next to Su You and vaguely heard the content of the phone call just now. After Su You hung up the phone, he said sadly.

Su You smiled and shook his head.

However, before he could go out to find Li Mingyue, a call came in again.

……

In southern Guangdong, in an ordinary restaurant outside the Zhejiang University of Communication, five veterans of [Xihong Film and Television] gathered here.

"Three companies have now approached us and asked us to add advertisements to "Once Upon a Time in the Square". Among them, the highest bid was seven walnuts for 20 yuan!"

"And judging from her tone, there is still room for improvement."

Su You looked excited and said with some pride, "I didn't finish what I said before. In fact, this is the ultimate purpose of my choice to release videos for free!"

"Allowing viewers to watch videos for free will accumulate a lot of popularity for us. As long as there is traffic, there is value. These companies will naturally come to us and ask us to advertise!"

"I see!"

Zhang Keer suddenly realized. Although she had not strongly opposed Su You's free model before, she was still skeptical. Now that Chi Guoguo's facts are in front of her, it once again proves that Su You is right.

There was no trace of happiness on Li Mingyue's face. Looking at Su You who was looking at her proudly, her back teeth were almost broken, "Damn it, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

However, when I thought about it again, it seemed that he was planning to say something, but I didn't listen...

So, I hurt myself?
"Children make choices. We are all adults, so of course we want them all!"

Li Zhenduo was the first to express his opinion, "My opinion is that all three advertisements will be followed. Anyway, it is enough to hit one, and it is not bad to hit three."

"no!"

Li Mingyue blurted out.

One seven walnuts is 20, and the three companies add up to more than 50. In addition, "Dragon King" is making a steady stream of money, how can she still lose money after six days of settlement?

"I agree with Mingyue's opinion!"

Su You nodded and looked at Li Mingyue with more appreciation in his eyes.

"Although the sum of several advertisements will not exceed 1 minute, it will seriously affect the continuity of the plot and the audience's perception. This will lead to a decrease in the playback volume of subsequent videos, and even a sharp decline in word-of-mouth, which will be very detrimental to our subsequent development. unfavorable."

Su You said with a serious expression, and then looked at Li Mingyue, looking pleased that the hero had the same idea.

"Huh? Did I think so?"

Li Mingyue's pupils widened for a moment. She was just frightened by Li Zhenduo's proposal and subconsciously stopped her.

But since Su You has provided such a good reason for her.

"Yes, that's it!"

"I have always emphasized that we should take a longer-term view, so we will not accept any of these advertisements!"

At this moment, everyone looked at Li Mingyue, feeling as if her body was shrouded in a brilliant golden light.

Li Mingyue enjoyed such a look, and continued with enthusiasm, "Even if you have to accept advertisements, it must be done without affecting the video quality!"

"I feel reassured by Su You's vision. I will leave this matter to you with full responsibility!"
