Chapter 149: Making Money [First Update]
On the sofa, I saw Zeng Li looking at Zhang Mudao with an unhappy face:
"You're all wrong!"
Hearing this, Zhang Mu was speechless and said:
"Tell me something! Isn't "Night Banquet" something you want to pick up yourself? ”
didn't want to leave the words, and really pinched Zhang Mu angrily.
"That's not what I said!"
Although it is a pity to miss "Search", and it is also a little disgusting to Wan Qian's good distance from Zeng Li, she is not so unreasonable.
I saw her holding the pillow with a sullen face and said:
"You said you couldn't write any songs, but you had to write those!"
"Now I don't even dare to invite me for commercial performances of red and white ceremonies, let alone parties and celebrations!"
Although Zeng Li doesn't like to run commercial performances very much, as a singer, she still likes the feeling of singing in the spotlight.
But she didn't expect that as soon as the new album "Red Dust" came out, almost all of her fans said that she was evil, and some fans were even ready to crowdfund a water and land festival for her.
If it hadn't been for Makino's public relations team who found out in time and quickly stopped it, it is estimated that Zeng Li would have made news headlines on the social page.
However, when Zhang Mu listened to Zeng Linian's babbling words, he couldn't help laughing.
I saw him take his mobile phone and rummage through it for a while, and then handed it to Zeng Li.
Zeng Li didn't know why, but when he saw the numbers on the text message, he couldn't help but open his mouth slightly in surprise.
"How can there be so many? You can't make a mistake, right? ”
Although Zeng Li's memory is not very good, she still remembers that the CRBT in the first half of the year seems to be only one-third of this data.
Seeing her so surprised, Zhang Mu smiled with satisfaction:
"Although these songs are not suitable for commercial performances, they are very popular with those young people on the Internet."
"Didn't you notice that your new album sales are much higher than before?"
Seeing Zhang Mu say this, Zeng Li immediately said with some astonishment:
"Is that the reason? I thought it was the company doing a good job of publicity! ”
Seeing this, Zhang Mu didn't say anything, but immediately got up and took the laptop, and after searching casually, he opened a website.
Seeing this, Zeng Li immediately looked at it curiously, and then soon found that there were many posts in this forum, all of which were related to his new songs.
She opened one curiously and casually looked at it:
"Mom, I feel like I've opened up a new world!"
"It's too top! What should I do, I suddenly want to learn suona! ”
"I was scared at first, but the more I heard it, the more I wanted to cry?"
"It's so wicked! Made, who recommended it to me? I thank you for the whole family? ”
"Goosebumps are up! Great sorrow and great joy...... I felt like I couldn't look directly at Zeng anymore. Are you sure she's not a mage? ”
When looking at this, Zeng Li suddenly couldn't help but stretch out his little hand and pinch Zhang Mu.
"Mage? Is there such a lovely mage? ”
Seeing this, Zhang Mu immediately hugged her and explained with a smile:
"Netizens are all honest, don't look at them all complaining, but it's not soft to recommend it to others!"
Speaking of which, Zhang Mu remembered an interesting story.
In other words, because the CRBT service has only just emerged, the three major operators did not provide free CRBT service at the beginning.
However, after the release of Zeng Li's new album, a large number of netizens who were not Zeng Li's fans immediately liked this kind of song.
So while listening to the song by myself, I can't help but want to subscribe to one for my friends, and share the good things!
There were many calls for this consultation, and the CRBT operation departments of the three major operators received feedback, which gave birth to this function in advance.
As a result, under the repeated consumption of many bell users, the number of ringtones downloaded from these songs has been greatly increased.
So not to mention anything else, just letting the three major operators develop a new function for her, Zhang Mu thinks it is enough to blow it for a few years.
And when Zhang Mu was hooking up with Zeng Li, Wan Qian led Yuanquan and the little fairy and his party, and worked tirelessly to run roadshows in various places.
Even when passing by Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hunan and other places, I also took time to go to the TV station. While promoting the movie, it can be regarded as an official appearance in front of the public.
However, the commercial attributes of "Search" are not high after all, and the content is also a little depressing, so even with the addition of the Berlin Film Festival, when the movie was released, the total box office was only 56 million.
……
On May 1, Makino Media Headquarters.
In the office, looking at Yang Guang, who was frowning slightly, Zhang Mu couldn't help but say helplessly:
"Don't think too much, it's good to have so many!"
To be honest, with the "healing" plot of "Searching", it has exceeded Zhang Mu's expectations to have so many box offices!
And if you calculate it carefully, although the profit of this movie is not as good as the previous "Super Body", Makino is not less profitable.
First of all, the broadcast rights in Europe were sold for $3 million, and the broadcast rights in North America and other regions were also sold for $6 million, plus the legendary $2 million remake fee, as well as the domestic box office share.
In addition to the cost of 7 million, Zhang Mu made at least a small goal this wave.
So it's not that literary films can't make money, it's just that there are fewer literary films that can make money.
Of course, Zhang Muyang Guang also knows in his heart that after seeing the box office results of "Super Body", he still has some unrealistic fantasies after all.
It's a pity that no matter how supernatural Zhang Mu is, he can't sell "Search" to the box office of "Super Body".
After chatting for a few words, Zhang Mu suddenly thought of something, so he ordered:
"By the way, this celebration banquet is not open to the public."
Seeing that Yang Guang's expression was a little strange, Zhang Mu immediately smiled and said:
"There are more celebration banquets, in fact, it's just like that, instead of cheapening outsiders, it's better for us to get together within the company, so that we can feel a little more comfortable."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
"To be honest, I didn't expect the scale of the company to develop so quickly, if I don't find an opportunity to get together, I'm afraid I don't know some people."
Hearing this, Yang Guang immediately couldn't help but nod in deep understanding.
With the gradual expansion of the company's business, the company has recruited more and more people.
If you don't take this opportunity to get together, I'm afraid most people won't even recognize all the departments of their own companies.
And such gatherings also help to enhance the cohesion of the company.
……
Three days later, Friday at 2 p.m.
As the buses stopped in front of the Makino bar, the original bar was quickly filled.
Fortunately, Zhang Mu was also sold by the bar next door, and when Zhang Mu was no longer there some time ago, Yang Guang was still responsible for recruiting people to fill the wine, and the two bars were merged into one.
On the other hand, Da Mi Mi, who came to Makino Bar for the first time, was a little strange.
After looking around, she couldn't help but lean over to the little fairy and asked curiously:
"Does Director Zhang like clubbing very much? Why do you choose this place for even company gatherings? ”
It is said that Da Mi Mi and Little Fairy are not only alumni, but they were also best friends when they were filming "The Condor Heroes".
So as soon as they met just now, the two got together.
However, as soon as Da Mi Mi said this, the little fairy couldn't help but laugh and said:
"Hahaha~ What, he's just picking the door."
After saying that, looking at Da Mi Mi's blank eyes, the little fairy couldn't help but smile and explained:
"This bar is Director Zhang's, and the reason why he chose this is purely because he is taking care of his own business. In his words, it's a win-win! ”
Just when the little fairy and Da Mi Mi were talking about all kinds of gossip, the other bigwigs in Makino finally arrived......
