Chapter 248: It's not a problem if it's related
"The problem now?"
Mao Yongyi and Huang Peiqin were both stunned, Song Mu's arrangements were already very complete when they came to them, what else could be the problem?
"Yes, we are now faced with several problems that need to be solved." Song Mu nodded in affirmation: "The first problem we face now is sponsorship. ”
"Sponsorship?" Huang Peiqin couldn't help frowning when she heard this: "The sponsorship of the fruit company is almost a certainty, right?" Why do you still find it problematic? “
"The fruit company is not the problem, the problem is the other business that comes next." Song Mu replied.
"What else is next?" Huang Peiqin pondered for a moment, still unable to figure it out, so she said directly to Song Mu: "Last time, the series of "Husson and Blues" attracted dozens of companies to bid, and this time "The Truman Show" should theoretically come, right?" What's more, if we don't refuse to come this time, what can be the problem? ”
"These dozens of companies are the problem." Song Mu picked up a "Truman Show" implantation sponsorship fee classification list and showed it to the two bigwigs: "You two may have seen it, I didn't mark the price in this list, in order to make it easier to watch people put on the dishes."
"This 'Truman Show' is not like Hussen Bruce last time, Hussen Bruce has a bidding in order to get people to give the highest price, so that we can get the highest bid. And this time for "The Truman Show", my plan is to squeeze all the money I can at once.
"If the price is clearly marked at the beginning, those large companies will feel that the price is cheap, and those small companies may not be able to afford it, plus the target market for this animated film is the United States, if possible, we will try to pull many American companies and even multinational companies to buy advertising space, so that it is ......"
"In this way, we need to judge the price that each company is willing to accept," without waiting for Song Mu to explain, Huang Peiqin interjected thoughtfully: "This price must not be too low and not too high, too low for us to maximize the sponsorship, too high for people to give up directly...... That's right, right? ”
Song Mu smiled and nodded: "Director Huang is right, this is exactly the truth, but it is not only the price. In addition to price, we also need to think about which level of advertising is suitable for which business, so that we can achieve better and more effective sales. ”
Mao Yongyi subconsciously wanted to light a cigarette, but he didn't touch it in his pocket, so he remembered that he was going to quit smoking, and there was no cigarette in his pocket today.
Withdrawing his hand stupidly, he tapped his fingers on the table as he sighed and said, "It's really a trouble to think about it like this, I have to call those people in sales to have a special meeting." ”
"And that's just the first question." Unexpectedly, Song Mu's words were not finished, she continued under the gaze of Mao Yongyi and Huang Peiqin: "The second problem is that we don't have enough hand-drawn tablets in our hands. ”
Huang Peiqin already knew in the morning that Mao Yongyi was going to make "The Truman Show" the world's first fully computer-produced animated film, and at this moment he heard Song Mu say that there were not enough hand-drawn tablets, and asked a little puzzled: "Do you have to use a hand-drawn tablet to make animation?" I see that the mouse is also quite sensitive, can't the mouse make pictures? ”
The reason why Huang Peiqin asked this kind of question is because she and Mao Yongyi enrolled in the computer advanced training class relatively late, and they have not yet learned the hand-drawn tablet, so they cannot understand the power of the hand-drawn tablet for the time being.
It is undeniable that there are many rat painting masters who are good at mouse painting in later generations, so strictly speaking, the mouse must be able to be used to draw. But after all, those are all big guys, and they are dedicated to practicing hard mouse drawing. Ordinary people who have not undergone special training basically don't think about it. Not to mention others, if Song Mu draws directly with the mouse, it is estimated that she will be able to exert her three successes at most.
"It's not that you can't draw, but most people can't do it." Song Mu explained to Huang Peiqin: "Although the hand-drawn board is different from drawing on paper, it won't take long for us to get used to it. Mouse drawing is far from it, it can be said that the feeling of drawing on paper is completely different, and it is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to it in a short period of time. ”
Mao Yongyi tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically, thought for a moment and said, "In other words, even if we don't do "The Truman Show", your "Plan D" actually can't use the more than 1,100 computers that are currently available?" ”
Song Mu couldn't help but be stunned, and then scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled: "Yesterday, I just thought about how to leave you, and I didn't think about anything else at all." When I was tidying up this morning, I remembered that the hand-drawn tablet ordered from Waqam hadn't been delivered yet, so isn't this a problem we are facing......"
Mao Yongyi and Huang Peiqin were a little dumbfounded after hearing this, and Mao Yongyi even clicked Song Mu twice with his hand, but he didn't care about it, and continued to talk about business: "The hand-drawn tablet has been ordered for so long, why hasn't it arrived yet?" ”
"Hey, it's still troublesome at customs." Song Mu shrugged his shoulders: "Actually, three thousand five hundred hand-painted tablets arrived in our country a while ago, and they have been stuck in the customs and have not been released." ”
Mao Yongyi couldn't help but worry when he heard this, but let out a sigh of relief and put his heart down: "It's good to go to Huaguo, it's good to go to Huaguo, since you are in Huaguo now, the shortage of hand-painted tablets is not a problem." Anyway, the computers of the fruit company are not all in place, let's focus on finding sponsorship first, and if the funds and computers are all in place, and the hand-drawn board is not released, I will have a big deal to pull down the old face and find Old Man Liang. ”
Huang Peiqin also supported his decision: "Yes, if it really doesn't work, let's go to Lao Liang, he is old, and it is estimated that he will not be able to play any flowers." The top priority is still what Xiao Song said about watching people put off the dishes, and this has to be studied carefully. I have a ...... "Read."
Before the word "law" could be uttered, she heard a knock on the door of the reception room, Huang Peiqin interrupted the momentum of continuing to speak, and turned to the door and shouted loudly: "Please come in!" ”
The door of the reception room was pushed open, and it was Han Yangqiu who came back with two people from the fruit company.
Hasley Hill and Pete Joyce greeted the three people in the conference room, and after returning to their previous seats, they said directly: "Let you wait for a long time, I have communicated with our headquarters, the headquarters attaches great importance to this cooperation project, and we have determined the following points after some discussion. ”
Song Mu didn't interrupt him again this time, but quietly waited for the following.
Hasley Hill's eyes were also looking at Song Mu, and seeing that she didn't make a sound, he continued aloud: "Since we have only read the outline of The Truman Show now, we can't determine the final quality of this animated film, so the premise of reaching a cooperation is that after we see more materials, I don't know if you agree to this request?" ”
Because the partner this time is not an elite group, but Haishi Fine Arts Film Studio, so Hasley Hill's question was also raised to the director Mao Yongyi.
After listening to Han Yangqiu's translation, Mao Yongyi laughed and said, "Your request is justified, and of course we agree. ”
After receiving an affirmative answer, Hasley Hill nodded, and then he picked up a piece of paper and read it out: "After the discussion at the headquarters of the United States Fruit Company, we have the following intentions to reach with you:
"First, the fruit company wants to buy one of each of the three types of advertisements in category A, category C and category E;
"Second, the fruit company wanted the words 'This film was made entirely on Macintana computers' and the logo of the fruit company to appear at the end of the film.
"Third, the fruit company was authorized to use the name of Huaguohai Fine Arts Film Studio and the relevant graphics and texts of "The Truman Show" for promotional activities within two years.
"To this end, our fruit company is willing to provide a sponsorship of 3 million meters. I don't know what you think? ”
The opening is a three-million-meter knife, and Mao Yongyi, who listened to it, almost had a heart attack again, how much is a three-million-meter knife! Although this era has not yet reached about 1:7 in later generations, the exchange rate of the soft sister currency against the rice knife in the past two years has also been rising, and it is almost close to 1:4.
Three million meters of knife, converted into soft sister coins, that is about 10 million!
Haishi Fine Arts Film Studio has been through ups and downs for many years from its opening to the present, except for the elite group's "Mulan", there is no second animated film with such a high investment!
Huang Peiqin was also very excited about this, she reached out and patted Mao Yongyi next to her, and whispered in Mao Yongyi's ear in a whisper that others couldn't hear: "Old Mao, do you have the medicine?" I feel like I'm going to get sick too, so take it out and give me a ......."
Mao Yongyi knew that they were not young anymore, and Huang Peiqin's words were not necessarily a joke, so he hurriedly reached into his pocket to take out the medicine, and was ready to open his mouth to agree.
Who knew that before he could say his words, he heard Song Mu's voice suddenly sound: "Mr. Hill, I can see the sincerity of your company, but there is a small detail I want to adjust." ”
Hasley Hill had already expected Song Mu to react, only to see him nod gentlemanly and respond, "Miss Song, please speak." ”
Song Mu did not shirk, and said very directly: "The third article I hope to limit the scope, and change it to two years when your company uses the relevant graphics and texts of "The Truman Show" for publicity, you can use the name of Huaguohai Fine Arts Film Studio. ”
"Well, yes." Hasley Hill responded.
Song Mu smiled, and then changed to a daily chat tone and said: "I can understand your mentality of not daring to put money if you don't see the goods, but as a friend, I want to remind you that Class A advertisements need to be requested by you, and Class C advertisements also need to be provided by you, so I hope you can do it as soon as possible." After all, as I told you before, the advertising space for our "The Truman Show" is distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. ”
She didn't say any more, but after listening to the translation, Hasley Hill immediately understood the meaning of Song Mu's words......
