Chapter 20: Offensive and Defensive Alliances
Xu Fu probably knew the situation here. There was a big head, and two small heads of similar status. The person he was waiting for was just one of two little heads.
After delivering the water, Xu Fu went out. He didn't try to break into the manager's office and go directly to the big leader. That's too ruined, not only does the chance of success be small, but it will also hurt the girl at the front desk.
Waited outside until two o'clock. Finally, a car drove up and stopped at the door. A man in his early thirties came down. The girl at the front desk also looked at Xu Fu for several hours, moved with compassion, and reminded: "It's Manager Wang who came." ”
"Thank you, sister." Xu Fu thanked him and went out with the script, wanting to fight for more opportunities to speak.
He said: "Manager Wang, hello, I am Xu Fu of Blue Whale University. I'm working on a short film, and here's the script. Can you please see if there are any opportunities for cooperation? ”
"In the past few days, a case of Blue Whale University has been approved. The money was given in the morning, and someone came looking for it in the afternoon. You're very well-informed. Manager Wang took the script, didn't read a word, and asked Xu Fudao: "Let's talk about it, which school leaders can see your micro-film?" ”
Xu Fu was stunned and said honestly: "I'm not here to show the school leaders, I plan to upload it to the Internet after the shoot is filmed and strive for clicks." ”
Manager Wang shook his head, obviously not looking at it, and then asked, "How big can you broadcast at the school's celebration?" ”
Xu Fu's script was taken out, and he said that he would take that work to celebrate, but the ghosts didn't believe it. Xu Fu still said honestly: "I don't know. But there is a chance that it can be placed on the school's official website. ”
"Haha." Manager Wang returned the script to Xu Fu who hadn't even looked at it: "I'm sorry." Let's have a chance to work together again in the future. ”
Manager Wang raised his feet to leave. Xu Fu hurriedly said, "Manager Wang, can you please read the script again?" I hope that the micro-film will go viral on the Internet, not just in schools. There are a lot of likable elements in the script, such as being funny, anti-traditional, and reversing the ending......"
Manager Wang stood still, looked at Xu Fu and said, "I'll be honest with you." We are a commercial company and cannot afford to pay for your dreams. No matter how well you say it, it's just a good one. When you're really popular on the Internet, come back to me. ”
Xu Fu was dizzy from hunger, and seeing that the day's waiting was going to be in vain, he was really anxious, and said childishly: "Why do you sponsor Zhang Dongmu?" What can he do that I can't? ”
Manager Wang smiled: "Young man, I won't say much else." If I want to grow my business, I need to get to know the school leaders, and you can think about the rest. By the way, do you know the teacher of the State-owned Assets Management Office? If you know, I can talk to you a little more. ”
Xu Fu sighed and had to shake his head. He didn't even know what the State-owned Assets Management Office did.
But he probably understands why Zhang Dongmu can get sponsorship. Zhang Dongmu convinced Manager Wang that the micro-film could participate in the celebration and show it to the school leaders. As a sponsor, Manager Wang may be able to attend along. Then Manager Wang had the opportunity to meet with the school leaders and could sell the express delivery service of the campus.
Manager Wang wanted to buy a ticket to meet the school leaders, so he gave Zhang Dongmu money.
As for whether Zhang Dongmu can really do it, or just boasting all over the sky, this Xu Fu is not clear.
Xu Fu sighed again. After knowing the reason why Manager Wang gave the money, Xu Fu found that he had no chance at all. Can you only prove yourself with clicks first?
Right now. A taxi stopped at the door, and a girl ran in angrily and shouted at Manager Wang, "What do you mean today?" You remade a copy of the propaganda draft I made, and then quietly withdrew mine and asked the media to send your draft. We are at the same level! You're overstepping your authority! ”
Manager Wang said flatly. "Your manuscript doesn't work well with my work......"
Xu Fu looked at the girl. When the two talk about work, they explain that they belong to a unit. Able to speak to the manager in such a tone, it is clear that the girl is also a manager. Xu Fu remembered the "media promotion manager's room" he saw when he helped deliver water, and the conclusion was already coming out.
These two people, Manager Wang is an old fritter in the workplace, and the girl probably skips the layers of promotion and directly manages by virtue of her academic qualifications or relationships. Lack of experience, so he was taken away from power.
But the girl clearly didn't get the priority. What is there to compete for in the press release, isn't it a more serious matter that Manager Wang can grant Zhang Dongmu 100,000 yuan for sponsorship? Taking money to sponsor micro-film promotion enterprises, this should obviously be the work of "media promotion".
Xu Fu can see from this that the internal management of "Campus Jie" is still very chaotic, and the branch does not even distinguish the scope of work of different departments. It should be the negative effect of rapid market expansion after getting venture capital. It is also understandable that while establishing branches in more than a dozen cities at once and quickly seizing the market, chaos will inevitably occur.
The girl only knew how to make a lot of noise, and she was entangled in her press release being withdrawn by Manager Wang. Manager Wang was experienced and choked the girl in just a few words.
As a result, Manager Wang Shi Ran returned to the office. The girl waited outside with a grunt. It seems that she has to wait a while before going in, so as not to make the people inside feel that she is following Manager Wang's head.
After Xu Fu had a good idea in his heart, he stepped forward and said, "You are also the manager here, right?" What's your last name? ”
"Zhou!" The girl was just popular, and her tone was very impulsive. After answering, I felt strange, how could a person who had never met know her position? She looked at Xu Fu and asked, "Do you know me?" ”
"I don't know." Xu Fu handed over his script and said, "I plan to make a micro-film." I'm here today to get sponsorship money. ”
"This is not my ......" Manager Zhou just said that this is not her job, but suddenly realized that this is her job at all! Isn't media promotion to use any media with communication power to promote "campus success"?
She hurriedly stopped and took Xu Fu's script.
The script is completely different from the novel, it looks dry, and it doesn't present all the expected highlights. So the script is not a genre that can be enjoyed casually. That's why many major American studios hire full-time employees to read scripts.
Manager Zhou really couldn't understand it, and the speed of turning the script was very fast.
Xu Fu saw that Manager Zhou was not interested in the script, so he talked about something else. He smiled and asked, "Manager Zhou, you shouldn't be a Blue Whale person, right?" ”
"How do you know?" Manager Zhou was surprised again.
Xu Fu guessed. He said: "Is Manager Zhou a founding employee of the campus Jie's head office? When the company was expanding rapidly, it was sent to Blue Whale? ”
"You investigated me?" Manager Zhou's expression was a little frightened. The title of manager sounds good, but she is still a girl in her twenties who has not long since graduated.
Looking at the other party's expression, Xu Fu knew that he had guessed correctly. Manager Zhou is too young, unlike those who rely on their academic qualifications to become managers. That's the relationship. But if she really has a background, she is the future leader, and Manager Wang will offend her when she is crazy.
has no background and has a relationship, isn't it just the veteran employee who joined in the early days?
Xu Fu was afraid of scaring her, so he hurriedly said: "No, don't be careful, it's all my guess." ”
He whispered again, "Manager Zhou." Nowadays, there is more and more user-generated content on the Internet, and the number of hits is also very high. For example, 'Gu Amo', which has only recently become popular, can often make videos with more than 5 million views. And the audience of those videos has a high overlap rate with the users of 'Campus Jie'! Don't you want to open up this part of the media content? ”
Manager Zhou nodded again and again. She knows what Xu Fu said about "Gu Amo", and she is good at refining the complete movie in a few minutes. She was also overjoyed to watch.
But the power in her hands has long since been lost. For a while, there was no way to make a decision, and it was impossible to sponsor Xu Fu under pressure.
Realizing that he was actually marginalized like this, Manager Zhou panicked. If you don't have power, you can't do things, and if you don't do things, you can't grow. When the company ends the disorderly expansion period, what good results can it be if it is found that she is so weak?
Xu Fu estimated that her status here was probably a mascot. Seeing her sad face, Xu Fu said rightly: "I have a way!" You're pushing for me to sponsor this now. Don't do it quietly, but come with a big fanfare! It's best to report to headquarters! ”
Manager Zhou looked at Xu Fu in surprise. Her status is like that, can anyone listen to her?
Xu Fu continued: "I know it is impossible to succeed. Never mind. I will do my best to make this micro-film a good one. When I upload it, the results will come out, and I promise to make everyone who opposes you now stunned. You will take advantage of the bottoming out and take back some of your power! And then you sponsor my next work. ”
Manager Zhou understood what Xu Fu meant. She flipped through Xu Fu's script again, and she didn't know the bottom of her heart: "Do you think this micro-movie can be popular?" Can you click through a million? ”
That's a lot of the bar. Xu Fu smiled bitterly: "One million is too high. After all, this is my first work. My personal goal is to attract 130,000 people who really like the work. ”
"What if you fail?" Manager Zhou asked.
"Failed...... Xu Fu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I can't fail." ”
Manager Zhou didn't know what Xu Fu couldn't fail. But if you think about it, if Manager Zhou doesn't take action, she will really fail.
So, wouldn't it make no sense for her to join a startup company with a low salary before? Originally, she planned to wait for the company to be listed on the NASDAQ, and she would become a little rich woman with the options in her hand, and then quit her job to open a coffee shop......
She looked at Xu Fu seriously again: "What story does your micro-film tell?" ”
Xu Fu told his story to Manager Zhou as it was. Manager Zhou was stunned, if this kind of thing could really be photographed according to what Xu Fu said, she would watch it herself! And she not only sees it herself, but also recommends it to her friends.
She looked at the script again, "The House of Ghosts". suddenly felt that this micro-film really had the possibility of success.
