Chapter 284 "Never Expected" clip
"That's how our web series is positioned! My positioning is that it is not a serious storyteller, but a little skit that disrupts some fixed logic to be funny. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Li Kuo said to a few editors: "Look here, its rhythm is still not in place, and it still has to be accelerated!" In addition, we have already considered post-editing when shooting, so you don't have to cut many shots too much, you can ...... them all in one shot."
…… Li Kuo and the editor gave an order.
Li Kuo can feel it now, and everyone is obviously feeling that Li Kuo's thoughts are a little too strange.
He even estimated that someone was saying bad things about him behind his back......
Indeed, Li Kuo's thoughts may feel a little low.
But the thing is, these things can really catch fire......
Funny is something that should be said to have a threshold, which is the threshold of offsetting from real life......
The most advanced comedy, of course, is that everything is carried out within the framework of real life, and then it can make them funny, and "Wulin Gaiden" is actually closer to such funny.
And the slightly worse one is a little bit more deviated from real life, some people's behavior, some people's personalities, for the sake of being funny, are not the same as normal people...... Use these methods to be funny, such as Love Apartment.
Then, worse is more deviating from real life.
There are some comedies of, pee, and fart, that is, it is purely messy, how vulgar and stupid it is......
And "Never Expected" actually deviates a lot from real life in terms of character and behavior...... But the essence of this comedy lies in it, many things look low because they look, but in fact, everyone can see that they can shoot more elaborate things, but they just do it on purpose, but they feel more funny.
Li Kuo also felt that it was useless to analyze so much now, so he could only see the results when the time came.
"When will this web series be launched?" Li Kuo asked Xiao Qifan.
"It's going to be another month or so!" Xiao Qifan suddenly said to Li Kuo: "I really believe in you now!" I can only hope for you. ”
Li Kuo's current guidance on the editing of the first two episodes has made some people suspicious of him, and of course some people support him from the bottom of their hearts...... But these things can only be seen later.
"How much does it cost to produce an episode of ours now?" Li Kuo asked Xiao Qifan.
"According to the current situation, the cost of an episode is around 30,000." Xiao Qifan said.
Li Kuo nodded, this number is not too high.
After all, the actor's salary costs money, the lighting costs money, the cameraman asks for money, and the post-editor asks for salary and bonuses...... Anyway, almost all of them ask for money!
"Never Expected" This is a small crew, basically everyone can quickly understand what they do, so basically no one is greedy for money or anything like that, so now the 30,000 is basically the real cost.
"It's not easy to recover the cost!" Xiao Qifan said.
Li Kuo also nodded.
Now such a video, in fact, is more just to accumulate popularity and make the company's fame be launched, and it is really difficult to make money directly with this web series.
Now such videos make money, the main channel, on the one hand, is the share of clicks and advertising playback given by online video websites, and the other is to directly implant sponsors' advertisements in them.
Of course, "Never Expected" in his previous life really made money later, and Li Kuo also has confidence in this online drama......
Generally speaking, the current online video market is basically a real click, and 100,000 clicks can have a share of about 500-800 (depending on what kind of advertisement).
Therefore, as long as there can be a single episode of about 4 million hits, there is a great possibility of recovering the cost.
However, this thing definitely does not make money by implanting ads in it, but it implants ads in it, which requires discussion with the video site to come up with a cooperation agreement.
These things are still quite troublesome......
Li Kuo is not responsible for specific affairs, he is only responsible for matters within his purview.
Now, "Never Expected" has begun follow-up editing, and it will be officially launched soon, so now the company's operation department and the Ministry of Commerce are already docking with major video websites, and they want to negotiate a good ratio.
There are a lot of different ideas within the company right now......
Because the current major video networks are also interested in this video, I want to try to cooperate.
Some of these collaborations are general, that is, upload videos directly on their website and then divide them according to valid ad clicks.
Some are in-depth cooperation, which is exclusive, only put the video on one website, so that the website will give them more resource recommendations, and at the same time, it will also give a higher sharing standard.
And then the deeper cooperation is that the video website is responsible for attracting investment, recruiting ad implanters for them, and even having specific ads before the video starts.
There is also a way for the website to buy out the video directly......
Now there is a tendency for websites to buy out "Never Expected".
In fact, the price given by the website is now 50,000 yuan per episode, which can make the company make some money, so some people advocate selling it......
But Li Kuo certainly could not agree to such conditions.
According to their conditions, they never expected that the first season of "Never Expected" could get a buyout fee of 750,000......
It's a real loss.
It's just that among the few people who have the right to speak in the company's operation department, a large number of them are still in favor of direct buyout.
Because they feel that the risk is not small, and this kind of direct buyout can at least make a profit.
So Xiao Qifan also came to discuss with Li Kuo: "I know they are a little short-sighted...... However, our company has not made such a profit before, and if it can be directly bought out by the website now, it can make a profit, and it can also make a profit on a film and television project, and it can also calm people's hearts...... What's more, if the website buys out, the name is us, anyway, even if the next show is really popular, it still belongs to us! But I listen to you about this matter, after all, you took out the show. ”
Li Kuo glanced at Xiao Qifan, and then said, "No, you can't buy it out...... I think it's okay to talk about exclusive releases, but definitely can't buy out! I'm confident that I can earn that money back...... The value of this web series is definitely more than that! When the time comes, everyone will understand why I insist on it like this! ”
Hearing Li Kuo say this, feeling Li Kuo's confidence, Xiao Qifan's confidence in his heart suddenly came up, and at that moment, he also nodded at Li Kuo. (To be continued.) )
