Chapter Thirty-Six: Torn?

There is an embarrassment in the early Internet sites, that is, the potential is unlimited, and they can often get a large amount of venture capital, but the problem is that they can't find a way to make a profit, or the profit can't be sustained.

This is especially true for video sites!

In the past few days, "Wan Wan" has been launched, which has brought a huge number of hits, but also increased operating costs - with more people watching, it will inevitably have an impact on bandwidth costs!

Server rentals are also expensive...

If it goes on like this, even Zhang Junsheng can't afford to spend money!

However, the Son of the Plane obviously has no such worries, and he is thinking about how to stabilize the users!

"Let's learn from potatoes, engage in original video sharing, and calculate remuneration according to the number of clicks!"

“… Mr. Zhang, we're running out of money!"

"It's okay, I'll transfer another 20 million tomorrow morning!"

Chen Rui was a little entangled, looked at Wang Wei sitting next to him, and still asked: "But... It's not a long-term solution..."

"You don't have to worry about this, don't worry, when the average daily number of visits exceeds one million, I will go to find investors!"

Or the investor's money is not distressed, and there is always a feeling of reluctance to use his own money!

It's still the same old topic: be a user first, wait until there are enough users, and then pull people in...

All you need to touch is a dragon...

"By the way, we can hold a micro-film competition!"

"Micro films?"

Chen Rui's eyes lit up, and he seemed to understand what Zhang Junsheng meant.

"It's a 30-60 minute film, the investment is small, but it has all the elements of a movie, so I'll make a sample after a while!"

Zhang Junsheng roughly explained.

"The top 10 are made into DVDs for sale..."

"Of course, we will also give them a part, according to the number of clicks, a click is a penny! Also, the top three, we have cash prizes, the first place will be rewarded with 1 million... If you have good seedlings, you can sign up for the company and cultivate them slowly!"

This is how Oneness Pictures started!

That's how the chopsticks brothers, Wen Muye, and Guan Xiaojie started.

In the final analysis, China does not have a particularly good upward system, unlike Hollywood, in addition to the traditional six or seventeen medium-sized film and television companies, there are more than 5,000 small companies specializing in B-grade films and DVD production, and the works made by these people often invest less than 700,000 US dollars, do not go to theaters, and are directly distributed on DVDs.

Its whole model is bottom-up!

More than 5,000 DVD companies are at the bottom of the tower!

We don't have the bottom of this tower, and it's a theatrical movie!

Of course, we had digital films that the Movie Channel had specifically funded to produce...

But such a directional production, the step is still very high, after all, when it comes to funding, someone will make a fuss - think about when you go to college, even the poverty subsidy can have one place in each dormitory...

"By the way, don't forget to ask for it, the first website of the work can only be our Yuehua video!"

"Also, the final interpretation right of the micro film competition belongs to Yuehua Media!"

It's impossible to ask creators to just upload their work to their own website, but it's enough to ask for the first release...

……

Time flies.

"Never Expected" has uploaded the first four episodes, and when it was close to a month, the total number of hits reached 20 million, which swept the whole network!

In addition to the steamed bun blood case, the most popular online video.

In addition to Yuehua's first video, several other video websites have also received hundreds of thousands to millions of views.

In this era, videos with millions of views can be called a big hit!

And with the expansion of word-of-mouth, the number of viewers continues to increase...

"The Monkey King with a Big Tongue" is not the first time Zhang Junsheng has spoofed "Journey to the West", and Tang Seng and Sun Wukong, including Zhu Bajie in "The Legend of Wukong", are not the traditional "Journey to the West" route!

Tang Xuanzang would say: I want this day, and I can't cover my eyes anymore! I want this land, and I can't bury my heart anymore! I want all living beings to understand my intentions! I want all the Buddhas to disappear!

Sun Wukong will say: What's the use of giving birth to me? What's the use of destroying me?

He will say, "If the heavens crush me, they will split the heavens, and if the earth will take me, they will crush the earth." We were born free, who would dare to be high!

a monkey who thinks that with strength, he can break all shackles and achieve freedom;

A monk who knows the rules and thinks that if he sees through the rules, he can transcend the rules and achieve freedom;

A pig who gasped under the rules, thinking that he would be free if he didn't touch it;

An honest man who conforms to the rules and thinks that conformity is freedom;

It's just that "The Legend of Wukong" is a book about freedom, so although the mainstream media doesn't have much praise for Zhang Junsheng, they don't criticize it much, after all, they haven't touched their bottom line...

After "Sun Kong with a Big Tongue" was uploaded, opposition immediately erupted, especially "The Beijing News", "Destroy the classics, nonsensical farce!", "Zhang Junsheng is crazy"...

Li Qingyao even asserted that 'if Zhang Junsheng is allowed to mess around like this, this is a blasphemy against classical works!', 'Reverse right and wrong insult the original work, you should apologize to Wukong!'

It is worthy of a generation that has grown up in struggle!

Button people's hats at every turn!

The impact was very great, not only the "Beijing News", but even the "Yenching Evening News", "Yenching Youth Daily" and so on published this article by Li Qingyao criticizing Zhang Junsheng.

Yuehua can't bear the pressure anymore!

If it gets the upper hand to pay attention to it - although the probability is low!

After all, God didn't pay much attention to "Steamed Bun Blood"...

However, Zhang Junsheng still went crazy on his blog: "After the launch of "Never Expected", the number of hits has risen steadily, and yesterday's statistics tell us that the total number of hits has exceeded 20 million! Thank you for your encouragement and support!"

"Recently, someone questioned me and said that I insulted the classics..."

""Journey to the West" was originally recreated by Mr. Wu Chengen based on "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty". "Journey to the West" itself is a kind of big talk about historical facts, could it be that Master Xuanzang took a monkey and a pig with him when he traveled west? Why can Wu Chengen adapt it, but our screenwriter and director can't?"

There are always some people who hold their own bowls and can't get used to looking at other people's pots! The people like to hear it, you don't like it, how old are you?"

"Culture is inclusive and shouldn't be pedantic. "Journey to the West" is no longer a novel, but a culture, why can't I spoof it? Akira Toriyama can draw "Dragon Ball", Monkey King can be a Super Saiyan, I can't let him have a big tongue? If you have the ability, you can go to the Wa Kingdom to scold him, crazy!"

After scolding, I directly let "Sanlian Magazine" reprint it...

Li Qingyao did not hesitate, and the next day the "Beijing News" published an article entitled "We Should Respect Famous Works", which roughly means that "the reason why famous books are famous works is because of their irreplaceability!"

"The positioning of famous novels in China is different from martial arts novels or fantasy, and it has nothing to do with the quality of your adaptation!
