Chapter 63: On Cooperation (I)

Those who can become executives are human spirits.

Li Xianyun was empty-hearted, and everyone immediately laughed.

It's good if you have a weak heart, and it's easy to handle it if you have a weak heart!

The bald head Gao Guan named Lin Quan: "By the way, we have seen your ghost detection record, it is really good." ”

"Have you seen the ghost record?" Li Xianyun was surprised: "I haven't sent the platform yet." ”

A few days ago, the ghost record has been reviewed, but it has not been sent to the platform.

Because Li Xianyun's previous secret room ghost battle and the road of the crazy corpse were cooperated with the strange platform and the swift platform respectively, and the three parts of the ghost detection record invested 8 million, he wanted to talk to the two major platforms and strive to ensure three A-levels, so he originally planned to find the platform party to sit down and have a cup of tea after the filming.

If necessary...... It's not that you can't take out 100,000 yuan.

Li Xianyun felt that his principles were in decline.

Shen Rong smiled: "Did you ask Ren Zhi to take the film to the platform party before?" ”

Li Xianyun nodded: "Yes." ”

If it is officially submitted for review, the grade will not change, so Li Xianyun must first ask Ren Zhi to contact the platform party, and give an explanation after reading it privately, so that it is easy to operate.

Yang Yuandao: "Huayou is very familiar with the three major platforms. They all have different ideas about your film. ”

Li Xianyun secretly gave a thumbs up.

Big companies are awesome.

Lao Tzu didn't officially send the film to the platform, you can all see it.

Lin Quan had already touched his bare head, and said with a smile: "Different platforms have different opinions on your film. To be honest, it's a good film, but it's a bit of a pity that the hardware investment is not enough. ”

Li Xianyun snorted.

That's true.

The pursuit of ghost detection is quality, every lens and every detail, has a connotation, and requires a lot of design, including lighting and scenery, not to be gorgeous, but to be attentive.

But these designs can only be seen by insiders, and often not by laymen.

What they can feel is that the story of this film is well told, but they don't know that behind this "good story" is countless hard work.

On the contrary, the public does not see the soft cost, but it can see the hard cost.

A few dilapidated houses, a few actors, except for those ghost special effects, which are really good, there is not much cost to speak of.

The main body of the Internet is relatively low-class.

Gorgeous special effects are the pursuit.

Because of this, films like ghost records should be counted according to quality, and they are all properly qualified in theaters.

But in terms of the hard decoration effect of the picture, it can really only be regarded as B-level - you take the "Fruit Hard Candy" with an investment of millions of meters and a profit of 10 million, just two people in a room, and if you don't do it, you will be counted as C-level.

Li Xianyun filmed this series because of the experience of the original world, and the three parts of the original world were all B-level, with small investment and no need to do it. Li Xianyun is confident that he will invest more and do more carefully, so he is full of confidence and rushes to A.

But Yang Yuan's words made Li Xianyun's heart fall to the bottom.

Sure enough, Yang Yuan said: "They can see the degree of care and real investment in this film, but it does not meet the market demand...... Ghost movies are still a bit niche. ”

Hearing this, Li Xianyun sighed and said, "I also realized this later. When I first started doing it, I thought about it from a director's point of view, because ghost movies are what I'm good at. I want to improve myself...... Hard investment is throwing money, and soft investment is strength. ”

Yang Yuan nodded: "That's right, from the director's point of view, it is a very good choice for you to shoot a ghost record." Ghost battles in the secret room, the road of crazy corpses, and the actual record of ghost detection. As you can see from the changes in these films, you have made great progress! But from the perspective of the business owner, it is wrong to photograph the ghost record. ”

Li Xianyun smiled bitterly: "There are still many things I have to learn." During this time, I was thinking about how to be a good director, but I ignored that I was still the owner of a company. ”

"Your biggest overlook is the platform's intent." Shen Rong said indifferently: "You are an online writer. In your eyes, there is only a single line of connection between the two points of the work and the market. But the world is never so simple, writers also have platforms, and if the platform does not pass, the article cannot be published. Film and television also have a platform, and if they are reviewed, if they do not pass, or if they have low evaluations, they will also be greatly affected. To do quality, to do word-of-mouth, this kind of truth everyone understands, but it is too nihilistic. It's not something you can do if you want to. ”

Li Xianyun thought so.

Who doesn't know that a good reputation is important?

But why do so many people still choose to rush for quick success?

Because of reputation and quality, it's really not what you want to have - some bad movies may also be painstaking masterpieces.

It's just that the level is not enough, and it has nothing to do with attitude!

And even if you really make a good film, the market may not admit it - there are too many films that are not popular.

This is especially true on major platforms: the level of their evaluation of the film is not based on the investment, but on the core or the effect of the finished film - to see the investment, I still run over to check your account? Whoever does a good job of fake accounts will be highly rated?

The audience of the Internet University is dominated by gorgeous special effects, in this case, no matter how good the content of your film is, it may not be easy to sell.

Of course, it is not impossible to spend a lot of publicity efforts.

But that's it.

Why?

The reason why the road of crazy corpses is C-level evaluation and A-level publicity is because it meets the needs of platform publicity at that time, and more people need to invest in the industry of the Internet University. But in this way, a whopping 85 percent of the share was required.

There is no such condition in the ghost detection record, so the possibility of a B grade is still very high.

This is really not a shady scene, but a market choice!

The investment of eight million, if it is three B grades, it is at most a cost recovery, and the profit is not easy to say, depending on how it is sold, if the market does not recognize it, it is also possible to lose money - B grade is more popular than A grade, and A grade is worse than B grade.

And now that Yang Yuan and Shen Rong are saying this, Li Xianyun looks at them, but finds that they are looking at Jiang Zheng.

Well?

Li Xianyun suddenly woke up.

Is the other party saying this on purpose, is he pressuring himself?

No, it's pressing Jiang Zheng!

Yes, they said before that the technology was developed by Jiang Zheng's company.

And Yang Yuan, what they value most now is not Li Xianyun's directing skills, but this kind of special effects!

In other words, if his cooperation with Jiang Zheng leads to a loss, Jiang Zheng is theoretically likely to be dissatisfied with himself, which will lead to the loss of confidence in him.

Plus the previous talk......

Ha!

A herd of ghost animals!

Li Xianyun sneered in his heart.

Sure enough, talking and laughing will create mustard in the hearts of partners, once Jiang Zheng is really dissatisfied, isn't that their chance?

It's a pity that they won't understand the truth.

Thinking of this, Li Xianyun breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned his head to Jiang Zheng and smiled: "Old Jiang, if the ghost record is rated as B-level, we can't make the eight million, but it will all be lost, and it is luck to be able to recover 80,000 yuan, that is, there is no return." ”

I'll go!

Eighty thousand?

What Li Xianyun said was even more ruthless than Yang Yuan!

Jiang Zheng was so good that he immediately understood what Li Xianyun meant.

He laughed and said: "It's normal, stumbling on the road to growth, who can't touch a wall?" Don't worry, I'm still a little bit worthy, at least enough for you to lose a dozen more. You let it go, whatever you toss, I have no opinion. ”

"Then I'll be relieved." Li Xianyun slapped the table: "Isn't it just a loss of money, what a big deal." There are losses and gains in business, and if you lose, you will work hard to earn back. Let's ...... together."

"Its profits are broken!" Jiang Zheng replied loudly.

The two laughed at the same time, and the people at the opposite table looked at each other.

A partner who is sincerely united to this extent is as rare as a giant panda.
