Rebirth 09: Buying a house with a baby UP owner

"Sister, do you have a story you want to film? Since we are filming a TV series ourselves, why not film a story about us starting a business together? I think your experience will be a legend."

Yaoyao feels that no TV drama content is more touching than the real experience. Zhong Meihui went from a small county to Guancheng to work hard, and then met a scumbag, but she still created a family business with her foresight. Such determination The story should be brought to the TV screen.

"Absolutely not. Do you know how many of our operations are in gray areas? First of all, zero down payment is illegal."

Zhong Meihui feels that Yaoyao is throwing herself into a trap if she wants to make their experiences into a TV series. Many operations in the industry are okay when no one is investigating, but they must not be made public, otherwise they will definitely be punished.

What's more, the several times she was fooled by stocks and made huge profits were all because of the memory of her previous life. This part must not be shown in the TV series. Even if it is shown, it will be labeled as false and no one will watch it. .

"Then what are we filming? Sister, don't you believe that Tian Peng can really come up with a decent script?" Yaoyao felt that Tian Peng was not trustworthy at all. Even if he knew some screenwriters, it would be difficult for him to make what they thought. Want something.

"Of course we can't rely on him for the script. We have to figure it out ourselves." Zhong Meihui felt that the screenwriters Tian Peng knew were average. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to show off with such a crude thing.

A good screenwriter will not listen to the client's opinions on everything, because the client is a layman. It is normal for him to want to do something when he sees a popular plot. But as a professional, he must give his client professional advice and do what he wants. Come up with a script that meets both customer needs and the market.

The person Tian Peng found was just a junior screenwriter. Meeting the client's expectations meant completing the task. He did not consider subsequent market issues at all, and the scripts he wrote afterwards were not optimistic.

Zhong Meihui wants to film online dramas such as "The Princess' Promotion" and "Story of Yanxi Palace", and the future broadcast platforms will also be major video websites.

The ratings of these online dramas back then were extremely high, not only making investors money, but also making many actors famous. If they expand the business of film and television companies in the future to include artist management, then now You can sign a few artists who may become popular in the future, and then you can make a lot of money without doing anything.

"Sister, why do you want to make an online drama? Shouldn't it be broadcast on TV stations? Or we can make a movie. I heard that the cost of making a movie is lower than that of a TV series."

Yaoyao didn't understand why Zhong Meihui would target online platforms. The videos they had shot before had a good response on these websites, but the advertising share they received was very limited. If they were filming a TV series, this share would not be worth it. on their costs.

It's better to make some low-cost movies and give it a try. Not only will there be income from the theater, but you can also invest in online platforms to make more money. If it can be sold to overseas markets, that will be the icing on the cake.

There have been low-budget movies that have been successful before, and they can take this route, and even if it doesn't work, they won't lose too much money.

Yaoyao plans to control the cost of the film within 500 million yuan, which will be shared equally among the sister group. One person will be able to contribute 60 yuan to [-] yuan, which is enough. Even if he loses money, it will not hurt his muscles and bones.

But if Zhong Meihui plans to shoot a web drama, it will cost about 3000 million for Fu Hua Dao and the actors' remuneration. This money will definitely not be shared equally among the members of the sister group. The two of them must take the lion's share. If they lose, they will You have to lose half of your worth, which is really too much.

"Yaoyao, if it's an online drama, it's natural for these video websites to spend money to buy it. How can it be possible to share advertising based on click-through rates? What's more, the kind of low-cost movie you mentioned does have a comeback, but you What we see is only the superficial situation, and we don’t know how much effort they put in and how many connections they used to achieve that effect. We don’t have that kind of connections, and we don’t have the luck to win the lottery, so it’s better not to get involved in this field.”

Zhong Meihui is unwilling to make low-cost movies. She naturally knows which low-cost movies have achieved high box office in the end, but the water in them is too deep for a layman like her to enter.

She feels that it is easy for online dramas to pass review, and there are not many self-produced dramas on major video websites. They need a lot of exclusive broadcast resources to strengthen their competitiveness, and they are willing to spend money to buy high-quality online dramas.

The online dramas planned by Zhong Meihui are all future hits, and they will definitely sell for a good price. What's more, they don't have any connections in TV stations or theaters, so it is impossible for their dramas to become star dramas. On the contrary, they are on the Internet If the name Shangzhongmei Ten is somewhat famous, their drama may become a main attraction. As long as they can become popular, future cooperation will not be difficult.

"Sister, you don't say that just on a whim. Have you already had plans to enter the entertainment industry?" Yaoyao felt that she was several steps behind Zhong Meihui. She was still in the ecstasy of making money in stocks. , Zhong Meihui already has a plan for the next step, and has thought about all possibilities very comprehensively.

"I never thought about entering the entertainment industry before, but when I was thinking about a new business, I learned about various industries." Zhong Meihui wrote several story outlines based on her memories from her previous life, so that Yaoyao, who is familiar with the Internet literary circle, could Pay attention to acquiring the copyright of such online articles.

Now these authors are not aware of the value of these works, and the purchase price will be very low. They hold these copyrights and do not need to shoot all of them themselves. They can also sell these copyrights to others in the future and earn the profit difference.

Zhong Meihui knows that after a TV series becomes popular, the copyrights of related novels will increase. The price difference is not a slight difference, but a geometric increase. Maybe in the future, their income from selling copyrights will be higher than the income from filming TV series. .

"Sister, I do know a few online article authors, but when it comes to the content of online articles, Shanshan is more familiar with them than me. How about we call Shanshan to the capital as soon as possible and let her be responsible for the copyright acquisition."

Yaoyao feels that Yun Shanshan is the best person to do this. In addition to her daily work, she is involved in the online literary circle every day. In terms of qualifications, she is much more senior than herself.

Moreover, she cares about the money-making model and does not understand the content of online articles. However, Yun Shanshan is a person who can immerse herself in the world of online articles. She understands every story line. As long as she sees the beginning of an online article, Being able to guess the outline and synopsis within ten chapters is far superior to Yaoyao's.
