At noon that day, Chu Qiubai took the initiative to eat together with Gu Xiaofan, who came to the group building to attend the meeting, in the canteen, which is also the style of this Mr. Chu, sharing weal and woe with all employees. 【】

Of course, in the position where he sits, few people dare to sit next to him.

"Can I sit here?" Chu Qiubai, who was wearing a gray jacket, asked.

Gu Xiaofan looked back and saw that it was Mr. Chu, and was quickly startled, stood up and hurriedly said:

"Mr. Chu ~ you sit ~ you sit ~ "

Chu Qiubai and Gu Xiaofan exchanged two words, and immediately went straight to the point, and said the current situation:

"Director Gu, I'll give you the bottom, although your website has been made so quickly, this success is very gratifying, but the group's batch of funds is not rich, and the group has no resources to do channel publicity, but I am afraid that it will affect the click-through rate of "Love Apartment......"

"Mr. Chu~ I understand, I don't plan to spend money on advertising, we are just online dramas, and the media will not pay too much attention." Gu Xiaofan said indifferently while eating.

"The main thing is that we don't have an appealing star in this film, which is not good for promotion, and there is no way to send any press releases to the media, do you have any plans?"

Chu Qiubai squinted at Gu Xiaofan, he didn't expect Gu Xiaofan to really have any ideas, he just asked him a question, and let Gu Xiaofan know that it was really not that he didn't care, but that he had more than enough heart and not enough strength.

He also knew that Gu Xiaofan's "Old Boy" was popular on the Internet, but after all, Gu Xiaofan was only a non-professional actor before, and he had not yet formed that kind of real market influence, so it couldn't cause any sensation.

"Mr. Chu, in fact, no star is precisely our advantage." Gu Xiaofan smiled faintly.

"What do you say?" It was the first time Chu Qiubai had heard of such a strange theory.

"Although we don't have any big stars in the network bureau, they are mainly newcomers, but the quality of itself is very good, as long as it is placed on the Internet, it is easy to form a good reputation, which will form a contrast with our low-cost lineup, which is our selling point."

Gu Xiaofan said his reason and said: "Therefore, let's not adopt the model of two episodes a day of domestic dramas, but like American dramas, we should adopt the form of weekly broadcasts and slowly accumulate popularity." ”

"Weekly?" Chu Qiubai frowned slightly, it was the first time he had heard that the art factory was arranged like this.

"It's not impossible to broadcast weekly, but there are two problems, the first is that Chinese audiences are not used to weekly dramas, let them wait, they will forget the plot......

The second is the problem of piracy, if you broadcast weekly, although other regular video sites dare not get on, but I but those pirated sites will pirate our videos, and it is impossible to prevent it. ”

"Well, Mr. Chu, you're right, but these two questions are not a problem for us." Gu Xiaofan smiled:

"First, "Love Apartment" is a sitcom, and the plot of a single episode is usually a complete story, even if you don't remember the plot, the audience can watch it, as for piracy, ......"

Gu Xiaofan said this, looked at Chu Qiubai and asked curiously: "Mr. Chu, I have something I want to ask you, can you tell me the truth......

It was the first time for Chu Qiubai to meet a little director who would ask himself with such a suspicious attitude, and he couldn't help laughing: "If there is something, you can ask." ”

"Although you have been asking me how to solve the piracy problem, if we release "Love Apartment", if you are determined to really want to block the main piracy, you can actually do it, right?" Gu Xiaofan asked very sincerely.

Why did he ask? It's because when he looked at the future information, he found that there were many TV series, TV programs in the video materials, there are different versions of the station logos of different video networks, the same drama, there will be a LeTV version, Youku version, potato version, and what iQiyi version, and even a lot of unclear small website videos......

Only as long as it is a CCTV program, there is only the logo of TV in the big video materials of "World Football" and "Economic Half Hour".

Although Gu Xiaofan doesn't know what the origin of this TV is, he guesses that this agency is likely to be CCTV's exclusive video network in the future.

And this TV proves one thing, they have the ability to completely eliminate piracy!

If a state-owned enterprise like CCTV can do it, why can't a company as big as Shanghai Film Group do it?

When Chu Qiubai heard this question, he was also slightly stunned, in fact, this matter had already been arranged as early as the beginning of Gu Xiaofan's proposal to build a video website on Shangying, and he could completely eliminate pirated online videos, but he didn't tell anyone about this matter, why did Gu Xiaofan know?

He originally wanted to sell Gu Xiaofan a favor again when he was in trouble, so as to control him, but he didn't expect that the hole cards were turned over by Gu Xiaofan in advance on the spot, which made Chu Qiubai a little surprised.

"Well, you didn't answer, and I know the answer." Gu Xiaofan saw Chu Qiubai smiling without saying a word, and knew that he had guessed correctly, and said with a somewhat complicated expression:

"Actually, I originally planned that if I couldn't control the pirated website, I would just force it, because we have a barrage, if you want to comment, talk about your opinion, or complain, you can only come to our barrage network, in this way, other websites piracy our online video will be less of a blow to us."

"Then you don't have to worry about that now." Chu Qiubai squinted at Gu Xiaofan.

This kid is very smart, and knows that I am behind him at the critical moment.

"No......" Gu Xiaofan smiled bitterly: "I'm worried now that you blocked all pirated websites at the beginning." ”

"What do you mean?" Chu Qiubai wondered, are you still blaming me for being troublesome?

"Water can overturn a boat, and it can also carry a boat." Gu Xiaofan showed a bright expression and said:

"When we broadcast 4 episodes in the first week, we don't want to control piracy, and after 4 episodes, we will strictly prohibit all video websites from uploading our "Love Apartment", and let us directly type the URL and name of our barrage network at the end of the fourth episode...... Let them know what website they should go to if they want to continue watching dramas, and use "Love Apartment" to promote our barrage network in turn. ”

This is a trick he learned from the video websites of later generations, those movies that pay are to show you for ten minutes without money, and then when you see ten minutes, you will be prompted to recharge if you want to watch the whole movie......

Now it's time to change the way and let those other video sites be their free platform.

Chu Qiubai listened to these remarks, but he felt very novel, but he immediately realized the brilliance of Gu Xiaofan's strategy, which was because he used other video networks to advertise himself, and he could gather the attention of netizens.

And with Chu Qiubai's wisdom, he quickly discovered that there was one of the most important things about whether this strategy could be successful.

That is the quality of "Love Apartment", which will be launched next week......
