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

Chapter 9 Listen to me and say thank you
Sure enough, real masters are so calm. No wonder Mingyue can be the boss and can see the potential of "Dragon King".

Unlike myself, I have read the data in the background hundreds of times since I woke up in the morning.

Zhang Keer admired in his heart, "You can take a look now, maybe the data is better than you think!"

"???"

Li Mingyue knew every word of this sentence, but together they made her a little confused.

What does "better than I imagined" mean?
I imagine there should be dozens of on-demand videos. If it's even better, how about hundreds of on-demand videos?

Although this was what she really thought, but combined with the context of the chat just now, Li Mingyue suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Did you sell thousands of copies yesterday?"

Li Mingyue asked uncertainly, the first ten episodes of "Dragon King" are free, and the next twenty episodes are charged. One episode is [-] cents, and a full subscription is two yuan. A full subscription is called one copy, not to mention hundreds of copies, even if it is A few thousand copies, or a few thousand yuan in sales, plus Douyin's [-]% commission, would be a few thousand yuan in return.

Li Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Keer finally showed a smile, "Isn't Mingyue very confident before? Why is she so conservative now?"

"I was short-sighted before and didn't see the shining point of this work. It's Mingyue who knows the pearls!"

"You and Director Su have a grasp of the market that even I can't match."

This sudden rainbow fart made Li Mingyue's heart skip a beat. She couldn't wait to learn the sales data of "Dragon King" from Zhang Ke'er. She picked up her phone again and couldn't wait to log in to the Douyin management backend.

Click to open sales data.

[New yesterday: 31975*20*0.1]

"WTF? Are these people poisonous? Can this crap sell more than 3 copies in one night?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Li Mingyue's vision went dark and she froze on the spot, her heart filled with some kind of animal.

What made her even more heartbroken was that it was only 10:30, and the average order column had already reached 43179...

43179*20*0.1*0.5=43179.
After a quick mental calculation, Li Mingyue came up with a number that broke her heart. In just one night, she had lost 43 yuan!

Heartache!

It hurts, it hurts too much!
"Are you surprised, are you surprised?"

Seeing Li Mingyue's expression, Zhang Keer's previous complicated emotions all disappeared. It turned out that she was not the only one who did not expect "Dragon King" to have such results.

Surprise, I am so surprised!

Li Mingyue's legs softened and she fell onto the chair behind her. She needed to slow down.

It was obviously going well yesterday, but dozens of copies were sold. What happened in this short period of one night?
However, this is only the sales data for the second day. Logically speaking, as time goes by, the sales curve should decline steadily. In other words, the possibility of repaying the capital within a week is not that high. You should still pay for it. You can earn some rebates.

No, not right!

Li Mingyue's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she suddenly thought of a fatal question.

Their short play was not announced at all, and it was not produced by a big company. It sold out so well the next day, and the follow-up will probably be even more terrifying!
"my money……"

Li Mingyue covered her heart, feeling so heartbroken that she could no longer breathe.

"Haha, you didn't expect it either!"

Zhang Keer's tone was brisk. Although she was not very optimistic about "Dragon King" before, and even disliked it a little, after the results came out, she felt that "Dragon King" was just a bit of a joke and was still very interesting.

As a student who has not yet graduated, she is very happy that her photography can achieve such dazzling results. This will be of great help to her in finding a job in the future.

"No, we must figure out why the sales volume of "Dragon King" increased from dozens to tens of thousands overnight!"

Li Mingyue quickly cheered up. The temporary defeat was forgivable. She now needed to determine the reasons behind the success of "Dragon King" to see if there was any chance of saving it. At least, she would definitely not make such a mistake next time!Definitely next time!
"Last night, a big anchor on Xiaopo Station watched "Dragon King" during the live broadcast. Look, at about ten o'clock, the sales curve skyrocketed!"

"We are very lucky. We should really thank this anchor!"

Before Li Mingyue could do her own detective work, Zhang Keer pointed to the sales time-sharing curve for Li Mingyue and told her the good news, completely unaware that she was rubbing salt into the wound.

"Oh it's you!"

"Thank you very much?"

"I should really thank him!"

Li Mingyue gritted her teeth and said, then picked up her mobile phone, entered the Xiaopo Station, found the little quail, reported it, and wrote a one-stop essay. I thank you so much!
"But fortunately, the traffic brought by the anchor should be temporary. When this wave of popularity subsides, the sales of "Dragon King" should drop, and I should still make money!"

Seeing the sales curve that was almost back to normal and close to the X-axis, Li Mingyue felt much better. Without the more than 40 yuan, there was still more than 100 million yuan waiting for him, which was not convenient!
At this moment, Li Mingyue's phone began to vibrate continuously.

[Hello, we are now informing you that your work "Dragon King's Son-in-law" will be recommended on Douyin's homepage at 2012-12-14 10:00:00. Please ensure that the work is not removed from the shelves during this period. In case of emergency, please contact us in time Douyin staff, thank you for your cooperation! 】

It turned out to be a recommendation message from Douyin. Because of the traffic brought by the anchor, Douyin thought this short drama had great potential.

Misfortunes never come singly!
Li Mingyue's heart suddenly went cold. She quickly picked up her phone and saw that it was already 10:30. She refreshed the background sales data and found that it had started to rise again as expected.

woohoo...

Another WeChat message came.

"Mr. Li, have you looked at the background data?"

There is no doubt that it was Su You who sent the message to ask for credit.

This message is followed by a picture, or rather, an emoticon.

The person in this emoticon package is very familiar to Li Mingyue. He is the male protagonist of their short play, Hao Wei.

Hao Wei in the emoticon is making a crooked mouth gesture, but it is more exaggerated than in the short play. After looking at the P picture, his mouth has really reached to the root of his neck, exaggerated but proud.

But in Li Mingyue's view, this seemed to be a mockery of her previous distrust of the Dragon King. Now she wanted to beat Su Youpang for sending her this emoticon.

“You’ve already made emoticons?”

Li Mingyue realized the seriousness of the problem.

But now she didn't want to deal with the culprit at all. After exiting the chat box, she discovered that the chat history in the class group had reached 99+.

When I clicked in, I found that they were all filled with Hao Wei’s emoticons.

There are other things like "Dragon King, forgive me..."

"The three-year period has come..."

"You already have a way to die..."

Li Mingyue almost suffered from embarrassment due to such silly lines in the second grade, but the students actually had a great time having fun.

She felt like she was going to collapse.

"Is there any reason?"

"Is there any king law?"

"Does anyone watch such a crappy drama? Is there anyone who is willing to pay to watch it?"

"Are these people so idle that they have nothing to do?"

"Is it fun to play tricks here?"
