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

Chapter 33: Open up a new money-losing track

[Genius or madman? 】

[In the fast-paced era where short videos are popular, there are still people who insist on shooting high-quality long videos...]

Beijing, Douyin headquarters.

Yao Qian, the person in charge of Douyin Long Video, looked at the self-media articles about "The King of Bargaining" on the computer screen, as well as "The King of Bargaining", a keyword that has soared in popularity across the Internet, and the short video on the Xiaopo website. It has already exceeded 500 million views in three days.

He could only describe it as breathtaking.

His vision is right. The [Xihong Film and Television] team is full of potential. If he could have been more persistent and given better conditions at that time, perhaps the exclusive broadcast platform of [Once Upon a Time in the Square] would now be Douyin instead of Xiaopo stood.

Of course, he wouldn't know that the higher the price he offered, the less likely Li Mingyue would choose Douyin.

Even if they had been more arrogant and raised the price low enough, they might have been able to sign an exclusive broadcast contract with Su You.

Things in the world are unpredictable, and nothing is more wonderful than this.

"But there is still a chance now!"

Yao Qian looked at the data on the computer screen with firm eyes. Although Xiaopozhan had the upper hand, Xiaopozhan only signed the IP "Palace of the Past". He could still sign "Xihong Film and Television" .

Of course, he also knows that the difficulty today is no longer the same as it was half a month ago, but he believes that the small broken station is no more than their funny words!

……

“The number of views exceeded 500 million in three days!”

"It's still this kind of long video short drama!"

"Mr. Liu is really insightful!"

Everyone in the Magic City, Xiaopo Station Headquarters, and Operations Department watched the data of "The King of Bargaining" soar, and couldn't help but be convinced by the director Liu Zhi.

There are always some gossips in the workplace, and of course they also heard that it was Liu Zhili who signed the IP "Once Upon a Time in the Square" against all the opinions.

Facts have also proven that he is right. Although the IP "Once Upon a Time in the Square" has only been online for two episodes, it has already shown endless potential.

You know, this playback volume is even higher than some of the dramas they spent a lot of money to introduce, and the content form of short dramas determines that its stickiness is much better than other videos with full program effects.

To be precise, "Once Upon a Time in the Square" cannot be regarded as a short play, because it is actually not that short. After all, "The King of Bargaining" is faster than 25 minutes.

If [Once Upon a Time in the Square] is successful, maybe a new track can be opened in Xiaopo Station, which would be of great significance to Xiaopo Station.

However, they did not notice during their discussion that a fair and fat man passed by with a gloomy face and walked into the office of Liu Zhi, the director of the operations department.

"I don't agree with your signing plan!"

The fat man threw the folder in his hand onto Liu Zhi's desk with a very firm attitude.

"Now is a critical moment to grab people. Do you think Douyin will be satisfied with its status in short videos?"

“If we don’t move quickly, people will be poached by Douyin.”

Liu Zhi had a headache. He knew that the other party was deliberately looking for trouble, but work was like this. It was very realistic and helpless. He had to convince the other party to allow the plan to be implemented.

"You're right."

The fat man nodded and rarely had any objection to Liu Zhi.

"But they're not worth the price right now!"

In the plan provided by Liu Zhi, the IP that signed the contract will no longer be the IP "Palace of the Past", but the team of "Xihong Film and Television". Su You and their future works can only be broadcast exclusively on Xiaopo Station.

Correspondingly, Xiaopozhan also provides sufficient benefits.

Increase the incentive for effective playback to 0.5 yuan per playback!
This is what Fatty seizes on and uses it against Liu Zhi. You must know that this price may not be available even for some top dramas, and it is five times higher than Su You and the others' current incentives!
"They are not worth the price now, but when you think they are worth the price, we will have to pay more!"

Liu Zhi stood up and looked at the fat man with the same determination, without taking a step back. "What our operations department does is essentially an investment. You shouldn't understand the difference between providing help in times of need and icing on the cake." "This is about Xiao Po. Regarding the future development of the station, I hope you can temporarily put aside the personal grudges between us."

"Liu Zhi, what do you mean?"

The fat man yelled angrily, "Are you talking about my personal revenge?"

"No matter what you say, I don't agree with this plan. Even if it rises to the board of directors, I still don't agree!"

After saying that, the fat man turned around angrily and walked out of Liu Zhi's office.

……

[Film and television investment rebate system]

[Host: Li Mingyue]

[Profit conversion ratio 100:1, loss conversion ratio 1:10]

[Remaining settlement time: 0 days, 0 hour, 0 minutes, 17 seconds]

[System funds: 324 million (↑225 million)]

【Personal Property: 1121】

Looking at the system light curtain, Li Mingyue has lost her dream.

Yes, just now, the playback volume of "The King of Bargaining" exceeded [-] million.

Over [-] million views in seven days!
Li Mingyue didn't know how to describe her mood at this time. She didn't know whether she should praise Su You as a genius, or whether she should hate this old man who made it impossible for her to lose money.

Almost at the same time, Bing Xixi's advertising fees were also paid into the company's account. At this point, Bing Xixi is still much more credible than its knife-cutting activities.

The balance in the system funds column suddenly skyrocketed.

Coupled with the income from the "Seven Aunts and Eight Aunts" and "Dragon King" series, she earned more than 200 million this cycle. However, she cannot spend the money herself and can only convert it into more than 2 personal funds. .

It even made her doubt her life. Should she change her thinking and transform her personal assets by making money?
But she soon gave up on the foolish idea.

She knew that her ability to make money now largely depended on Su You's personal ability and a lot of luck. If she really made up her mind to make money, how much could she make?
For example, this time she made more than 200 million yuan, but only converted more than 2 yuan of personal funds. Even if she only lost 3000 yuan, she could still make greater profits.

This is a thousand times difference!

And she would not save money by cutting the welfare benefits of Sister Ke'er, Su You and others. Thinking about it, she knew how uneconomical it was. With a few thousand yuan, she could make back all of this money.

"No, I have to open a new track to lose money!"

Li Mingyue has already read the script for the follow-up "Once Upon a Time in the Square" given to her by Su You, and she feels that it will be difficult for this series to lose money anymore.

She can't sit still.

"System, system, can I bind another director?"

[With the current size of the host, it is impossible to bind a second director. 】

"Then can I untie it?"

[Once the director is bound, he cannot be unbound]

"Axi!"

Countless attempts have ended in failure.

woo woo woo...

At this moment, Li Mingyue's phone vibrated, and a strange call came in.
