My rebirth is different

Chapter 847 The Great Success
Sister Liu was stunned when she saw this reminder, what's the matter?

Are you not allowed to watch it without paying?
It's fun to watch!

Her daughter also yelled: "Mom, hurry up, I want to watch the second episode!"

"I can't see it, we are not paying members." Sister Liu said depressingly.

The daughter's mouth immediately pouted, "Then pay, it's like going to the cinema to watch a movie. If you don't buy a ticket, the cinema won't let you in."

"You damn girl, can that be the same? You don't need money to watch TV!" Sister Liu said unhappily.

"But you can't watch this series on TV. They are all rubbish dramas on TV. Can they compare with this?" My daughter immediately retorted.

Sister Liu really wanted to defend the TV station, but when she thought about it seriously, the TV shows on the TV station really couldn't compare to this.

Just kidding, for an ordinary TV series, if the production cost of an episode is 20, it is considered excellent.

As for "Youth Trilogy", I heard that the production cost of each episode is as high as more than 300 million!
It's all piled up with money. Of course, the effect is not comparable to that of ordinary TV dramas, and it is not much worse than that of movies.

"My colleague Xiao Hu seems to have a member. I asked her to borrow it. Why spend this unjustified money." Sister Liu was still reluctant.

It costs 18 yuan a month. If you use this money to buy vegetables, it will be enough for the whole family to eat for a day!

…………

Hu Lili was eating snacks and watching a drama when she received a call from Sister Liu.

"Little Hu, that... My girl wants to watch the second episode of the Youth Trilogy. You know, I didn't buy a membership. Didn't you buy it, can you lend me a bit?" Sister Liu said tactfully.

The little girl Hu Lili is usually very talkative, and she is always kind in the company. Sister Liu thinks that she will definitely lend it to herself.

Unexpectedly, Hu Lili refused...

"No, I'm watching it myself. Although this membership is not restricted to log in from different places, it cannot be used on two computers at the same time. If you use it, I will be disconnected here." Hu Lili said bluntly.

What are you kidding, I am watching, you ask me to borrow an account?
I am not willing to spend money to buy it, so I take other people's money as money?
Sister Liu was stunned for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed, this matter was done...

She was naturally too embarrassed to say anything else, so she could only say hastily: "Oh, that's it, I didn't know, I thought I could watch it at the same time. Then you can watch it, and I won't bother you."

After hanging up the phone, Sister Liu's daughter looked up at her expectantly and asked, "Mom, have you borrowed it yet?"

Sister Liu gritted her teeth, "Buy! Why don't we buy a membership ourselves? It's only 18 yuan! Small money!"

I don't know how many people are in the same situation as Sister Liu's family.

Both were originally reluctant to spend money to buy memberships, but after watching the first episode, they could no longer hold back.

The greatest pain in the world is this. Even though the second episode of "Youth Trilogy" is there, I can't watch it...

Just like what Sister Liu said, it’s only 18 yuan, buy, buy, buy!

…………

With the online broadcast of "Youth Trilogy", after watching it, many people feel that they are still unfinished and have a lot to say.

So, on Facebook, the show went viral again.

On the night of May 5th, if you haven't watched "Youth Trilogy", then you are OUT.

Because everyone is talking about this show.

"I think Lu Yi's acting skills are great, he is exactly like my cousin!"

"Ah, I'm going to die, the male god is indeed a male god, so handsome..."

"Among the young actors in China, I think only Lu Yi is qualified to play the cousin. The others are not good enough, they are not handsome enough!"

"Hey, hey, haven't you noticed Kunkun? He's also very handsome."

"Kun Kun is okay, but he is not as handsome as Lu Da. And he looks cold and not sunny enough."

"Why do you all only pay attention to the male actors, but didn't you find that the girl playing the heroine is very beautiful? I really don't know where the crew found it, she is exactly the Xiao Ran in my mind!"

"Nonsense, we are all girls, of course we pay attention to male actors!"...

These comments that focus on actors are of course ordinary audiences.

As for people in the industry, they analyze more from the professional perspectives of sets, props, picture structure, and even what cameras are used for shooting.

Everyone sighed, Director Zhang Da and Director Bao Gang are indeed worthy of being the leading directors in the domestic film and TV drama circles!
The shot is really extraordinary!

The quality of this series can completely catch up with the movies, and it was shot in full accordance with the standards of filming.

It has never been seen in the history of domestic TV dramas.

Of course, this is also because the crew is too rich.

"Youth Trilogy" has invested [-] million yuan in the whole drama. This figure can scare people to death.

Moreover, the remuneration of the actors is not high. Many big-name actors voluntarily lowered their remuneration in order to be able to appear in this series that is destined to become a phenomenon.

In fact, in those days, the salaries of the actors were not high.

Even for a popular niche like Lu Yi, the salary for this series is only 5 yuan per episode.

Even if you shoot 400 episodes, you will get [-] million, which is still pre-tax income.

He's already the highest paid character on the show.

As for Zhou Mengrou, the salary is pitifully low, only 5000 yuan per episode, and because the crew hired a professional tutor to guide her acting skills, part of it will be deducted...

It sounds like tears.

…………

Accompanied by the explosion of word of mouth, on this night, the membership sales of Facebook videos once again ushered in a wave of peaks.

The next day, at the Facebook Entertainment management meeting, the operations manager reported to Dong Xiaoxue with a happy face.

"As of 260 o'clock this morning, the number of paid users of our Facebook videos has increased by more than [-] million!"

There was applause in the meeting room, plus the previous 130 million paid members, now Facebook Video has as many as 400 million paid users!

As the pioneer of the charging system for video websites, every bit of achievement is precious.

This result has proved that the charging system is feasible!
As long as you dedicate good movies and TV series to users, users will not hesitate to open their wallets and pay for happiness.

"Unfortunately, most of the paid users added last night were purchased monthly members, not annual members. Among the more than 260 million, nearly 200 million are monthly members, and only 60 are annual members. Therefore, the operating The income is not too high, only [-] million." The revenue manager said again with a regretful tone.

This is also very light and reasonable, because most of the newly added paid members last night were users who did not want to pay for members.

As a result, after watching the first episode, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I paid for a membership.

Such users are naturally reluctant to buy annual memberships all at once, and most of them buy monthly memberships.

"It's already very good. For things like paying, there will be countless times after the first time. As long as we continue to launch new and exciting series, we are not afraid that they will not continue to pay! Maybe after two months, these Users will regret it, why don't they just buy an annual membership, which can save dozens of dollars."

Dong Xiaoxue said with a smile.

She is very confident about keeping these paying users.

Not to mention anything else, just for the "Trilogy of Youth", at least [-] episodes in four seasons will be filmed!

This should last almost a year.

After watching the first episode, I can't help but watch the second episode.

Then, after watching the first season, when the second season goes live, your monthly membership expires.

what would you do?
There will definitely be a renewal fee.

"Okay, now the success of "Youth Trilogy" proves that our business model of self-introduction, self-timer and self-screening is successful! Now that this is the case, the next plan is on the agenda. Mr. Fei's "Youth Trilogy" "Song" was the first shot for us, and we will continue to search for a suitable script and prepare for the second exclusive self-timer drama." Dong Xiaoxue announced.

Established his own film and television company, recruited Sister Hua, and a large number of artists.

The purpose is to invest in shooting TV dramas by yourself, and then broadcast them exclusively on your own website to attract a large number of users to pay.

This model has proven to be successful.

Dong Xiaoxue is ambitious and wants to do a big job.

Facebook entertainment is not short of money. After Facebook went public, Mr. Fei allocated a large budget.

Otherwise, how could he be willing to spend [-] million yuan to make a series.

"Mr. Dong, we have a director. Director Baogang is the best TV director in China. His style is especially suitable for young people. There is no shortage of actors. Our film and television company has many contracted artists, even if they are not our contracted artists. , I am also very happy to cooperate with our company. The only thing that lacks a good script..."

Li Xian, general manager of Facebook Film and Television Company, frowned and said.

What she was talking about was also a difficult problem in the industry. A good script can be met but not sought after.

There is indeed a shortage of talents in the domestic screenwriting industry.

Famous artists who are really suitable for writing scripts usually have long-standing partners. Before a script is written, countless TV stations are eyeing it.

"Not all TV dramas are suitable for broadcasting on the Internet. In fact, our user group is mainly female, and they are mainly young women. Therefore, I think idol romance dramas and urban fashion dramas are more popular. But such scripts , it's really hard to find..." Sister Hua, the person in charge of the signed artist department, also said.

"Well, let me find out if there are any suitable young writers in the past two years. It should be better for us to customize the script directly." Dong Xiaoxue said.

In the publishing industry, she is a veteran with a wide network of contacts.

After joining Facebook in the past two years, I haven't paid much attention to the publishing industry.

It’s not easy to find scripts for the company now, so I went to the publishing industry to find old contacts to inquire about.

If there are young writers who are just starting to write romance novels, they can just ask to come over and have a chat, and it would be great if they can customize a few scripts.

Anyway, the company has a lot of money, even if the customized script is not filmed for the time being, it is good to stock up.
