I really just want to make money

Chapter 328 Overwhelming popularity (two-in-one chapters for subscription)
After hearing Boss Li's plan, Hu Chengfei was quite shocked.

This is 1 million!

Boss, you really dare!

"Well, Mr. Li, the unpredictability of TV dramas is a bit big. Even if the investment is large, the results may not necessarily be good. What if..."

Hu Chengfei didn't dare to say what she said later, but the meaning was obvious. If Li Yu's cowhide was blown out, not only would the TV series lose money, but she would also lose a huge sum of money.

That scene, just thinking about it, is miserable...

Since having the system, Li Yu has become used to being questioned by others.

This is something that can’t be helped, people with foresight are different from ordinary people after all...

Li Yu did not explain to Hu Chengfei, nor was he obliged to explain.

"You don't have to worry about it, I'm sure of it, you just have to do what I say."

"Remember, the speed must be fast. I want to complete the acquisition of a website within a week, and add another batch of completed novels."

Li Yu refused to listen, and Hu Chengfei had no choice but to follow his request honestly.

Because of the full contact and negotiation in the early stage, Hu Chengfei and two of the websites have negotiated other details, leaving only the issue of money.

Just 3 days later, Hu Chengfei finally reached an agreement on the price with one of the websites.

Xiaoxiang Academy invested 1100 million yuan to successfully acquire a small and medium-sized female video novel website.

Of course, the value of a website must be more than 1100 million. This is only money for shareholders. Xiaoxiang Academy has also undertaken more than 600 million debts from this website.

After signing the contract and paying the initial fee of 300 million, Hu Chengfei arranged for two executives to take over the website with seven or eight employees.

The acquisition is very simple, but the subsequent integration of resources takes a lot of time.

This integration is mainly at the system level, which requires technical resources to merge the content and users of the original website into Xiaoxiang Academy...

Li Yu has no time to wait for the integration of the two websites. What he needs is to enrich the content of Xiaoxiang Academy in the shortest possible time.

If the user has no way to transfer for the time being, they can only transfer the content first.

After downloading the content of the original website, import it to Xiaoxiang Academy at one time, and notify all updated novel authors that when chapters are updated, the two websites will be updated together.

This is just a transition period. When the users are migrated, the original website will no longer be needed...

A week later, Xiaoxiang Academy preliminarily completed the content integration of the acquired website, and at the same time spent 600 million to acquire hundreds of finished novels from other websites.

After such an operation, the number of novels in Xiaoxiang Academy directly surpassed that of Moyu Chinese Website, reaching nearly 1 volumes.

However, in terms of the quality of the novel, the gap between the two sides is still obvious...

The novel website is like this, it takes time to accumulate, and Xiaoxiang Academy can only do this in the short term.

When everything is ready at Xiaoxiang Academy, "Huaxia Partner" will be released soon, and the box office score is fixed at 6.5 million yuan.

Temporary box office champion of the year!

Li Yu finally renewed his meager status again.

"Thank you for your support of "Huaxia Partners". The score was 1.5 million higher than expected, and I was lucky enough to earn tens of millions."

"I know everyone is sorry that I was not allowed to move bricks, but don't be discouraged, the opportunity is here again!"

"I plan to invest "Huaxia Partner" and the money I earned from the movie, totaling 8600 million, rounded up to 1 million, to invest in a large-scale costume TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which is adapted from Xiaoxiang Academy's novel "Harem The Legend of Zhen Huan."

"I am very confident about this TV series, so I will make another bet with everyone: I bet that the ratings of this TV series will reach 2.1%! If I lose, I will give you 1 million!"

"The specific rules are as follows:
1. Within one month, download the Xiaoxiang Academy app and register, bookmark "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem" and read the whole novel. The reading time should not be less than 10 hours. The system will directly screen qualified users.

2. Within one month, bind the bank card and complete the recharge, and the recharge amount is not limited.

3. The bonus is 1 million. If I lose, 1 million will be distributed equally to all eligible users and transferred directly to the bound bank card.Assuming that 1 people meet the conditions, each person will receive a reward of 1 yuan.

4. Old users of Xiaoxiang Academy, Moyu Chinese Website and Moyu Mall must meet the following conditions if they want to participate: 1. Collect and read novels; 10. Spend at least [-] yuan in Moyu Mall within one month. "

After writing the content, Li Yu checked it again, and after confirming that there were no loopholes, he sent out the meager blog.

In Li Yu's conditions:
Article 1, not to mention registration and favorite reading, this is to gain new customers and hype the popularity of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Article 2 requires that users must recharge to participate.This involves the logic of Internet users' first consumption.

When you sign up for a new website, you will find that the website offers a lot of discounts for new users, and there are even activities such as "buy 1 yuan for 9.9 cent" for free.

The website is not stupid. The reason for this is actually a kind of consumer psychology, in order to open the user's pocketbook.

Life is only the first time and countless times.

Once the purse is opened once, it will be difficult to cover it again...

Li Yu's approach is the same, draw a big cake and hang it there, not afraid that others will not be fooled.

Moreover, the lower limit of recharge on several websites of Moyu Technology Company is 1 yuan.

The user puts 1 yuan into it, it is impossible to throw it away directly, either to give a reward to the author, or to go shopping in Moyu Mall...

No matter which one it is, if there is a first time, there will be a second time.

As for Article 3, it is because the company has too many existing users.

If the 4000 to 1 million old customers all ran over to join in the fun, and the average per capita was only a few dollars, Li Yu's [-] million would not be attractive...

Although Li Yu hasn't posted a meager blog for more than two weeks, the box office of "Huaxia Partners" has been rising steadily, and Li Yu's meager popularity has not diminished, and people have been posting comments under Li Yu's meager blog.

Just like the men and women who open a room are not necessarily lovers, the people who follow are not necessarily fans.

Many people who follow Li Yu want to pluck his feathers.

They have some opinions on Li Yu's behavior of running away after making money and not seeing anyone for half a month.

For example, Liu Wei, who was slapped twice by Li Yu, has a lot of resentment in his heart...

Of course, among the more than 300 million people who follow Li Yu, there are also some real fans, such as Gu Lingling.

Ever since Li Yu bought two apartments in her own hands, Gu Lingling has become Li Yu's most loyal fan.

She set Li Yu's meager account as a list of important attention and reminders, and whenever Li Yu has new developments, she will know immediately.

No, just after Li Yu finished posting Weibo, Gu Lingling received a reminder message.

"Huh? Mr. Li finally cheated..."

There are many people who have the same idea as Gu Lingling. As soon as Li Yu appeared, those who followed him were attracted to him, wanting to see what this Boss Li posted after he disappeared for half a month.

Li Yu's meagerness is not short, Liu Wei read it in 1 minute, and then he cursed in his heart: "Fuck! Profiteer, do this again! I believe you!"

After scolding, Liu Wei became entangled.

Female frequency novel website, I am a rough man who reads novels, will I be a little perverted?
Moreover, I am still a regular customer, and if I want to participate in the "sweeping wool", I have to go to Moyu Mall to spend 10 yuan. No matter how I look at it, it looks like the rhythm of being turned back by Boss Li...

On the one hand, there is the temptation of 1 million yuan, on the other hand, he is afraid of being calculated by Li Yu.

To participate, or not to participate?

Just when Liu Wei was struggling in his heart, he also saw many people who had the same thoughts as him.

Why can I see it?
Because of the comments...

"I just lost dozens of yuan on "Huaxia Partners". I have a hunch that it will be difficult to get Mr. Li's wool this time."

"Brother, don't be afraid. I just checked. From last year to this year, there is only one TV series with a rating of 2.1%. I don't believe that Mr. Li is so hung up every time!"

"I'm afraid of wool! The novel is free, and the most you can do is recharge 1 yuan, and the rate of return will be dozens of times, and you're done!"

Except for those who are worried about being plundered by Li Yu, most of them are still entangled with the attributes of the novel.

"Could Mr. Li's conditions be changed, can I go and see your "Ordinary Man"? I'm an old man, and reading female novels will lead to the eye of the needle!"

"Hahaha, the upstairs spoke out my heart, let's ask the same question!"

"Mr. Li, can you stop making female novels? I think "Ordinary People" is very good, and I will definitely support you when it is made into a TV series!"

"I think "Tomb Raider Notes" is better, it is suitable for making a movie..."

The above are all arguments of male fans, but obviously, meagerness is not the world of men. Here, women occupy most of the sky.

The high-spirited talk of male fans, the remarks that don't take "The Legend of Zhen Huan" seriously, in the eyes of female compatriots, it is despising women and machismo!
On Weibo, wherever there is male chauvinism, there will be heavy blows from female compatriots...

"What's the matter with the women's novel? What's the matter? I've read "The Legend of Zhen Huan", it's very good! This time I firmly support Mr. Li!"

"I'm a full-time wife. I take care of the children at home every day, and I'm tired of doing laundry and cooking. My biggest hobby is reading novels. You men know how to spend time outside every day. Can't we women just do this hobby?"

"That's right! Why do you bastards slander our female video novels!"

"The scumbag will die!"

"My boyfriend cheated on me again, and I caught him, and he said it was because I'm not a C girl! What's wrong with me not being a C? What happened to how many boyfriends I had before?"

"I went for an interview some time ago, and the company directly said that it would not recruit girls. Why should women be discriminated against?"

"..."

"Hey, why did the painting style suddenly change?"

Liu Wei looked at the comment section with a dazed expression, and was chatting about the matter of plucking wool. Why did a group of female compatriots suddenly come out and bite people everywhere?
Not to mention the bewildered looks of the male fans watching, even Li Yu himself was quite speechless watching the biting situation in the comment area.

The point is that he has no way to stop this kind of thing. Although he has never been bitten, he also knows the combat effectiveness of these female men, and it will be troublesome if they get burned.

No way, Li Yu could only deal with it coldly.

If you want to quarrel, just quarrel, I'll just pretend I didn't see it...

Li Yu ignored these people, but what should be publicized must continue to be promoted, and the popularity of Zhen Huan's biography must be stirred up first.

So Li Yu contacted Sun Li again.

Half an hour later, Sun Li posted @李羽 on Weibo: "Mr. Li, I am a loyal fan of "The Legend of Zhen Huan". I like the character of Zhen Huan very much. I hope Mr. Li can give me a chance."

A few minutes later, Li Yu also replied to Sun Li: "Welcome to the crew to audition."

Obviously, this is a two-reed play that the two made an appointment.

For hype, there must be a sense of novelty and a suspenseful plot.

Look at the romances among the stars, which one is not plausible? One day the photos of eating together are released, the rumors will be dispelled tomorrow, and the photos of visiting the class will be released the day after tomorrow, and then the rumors will be dispelled.

Sure enough, Sun Li's meagerness added fuel to Li Yu's hype. Sun Li's fans wanted to see what the character her "little master" looked like, and they flocked to Xiaoxiang Academy to read novels.

Some people also ran crazy @李羽 in Li Yu's comment section, saying how suitable Sun Li is for the role of Zhen Huan.

Li Yu didn't bother to care whether it was a real fan or a sailor hired by Sun Li, he ignored them all.

Li Yu called Sun Li not only to ask her to cooperate with the hype, Li Yu also asked her to spread the word in the circle: "All the roles in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" are to be determined, and interested stars can all be on Weibo @李羽求Opportunity to audition...

This is a blatant conspiracy by Li Yu, who is taking advantage of the stars' psychology of wanting to get roles, and first prostitutes a wave of publicity traffic for nothing.

If you want to get an audition opportunity, you need to help me promote it for free on Weibo. As for whether I will use you or not, it depends on whether you can pass the interview.

It has to be said that Li Yu's operation hit the stars' seven inches.

In the entertainment industry, resources have always been more wolves than meat.

There are not many big productions, and the vast majority of big productions are led by the investment of large film and television companies.

While these companies are investing, most of the roles have already been arranged, and it is difficult for other stars to obtain role resources.

And like "The Legend of Zhen Huan", with hundreds of millions of dollars in big productions, all the characters are almost unowned. This is the first time this has happened in the entertainment circle...

Ever since, in just one day, Li Yu was @ by hundreds of celebrities.

Although these people are inferior in quality to the resources that Chen Kexin helped to pull last time, there are no top stars, not even a few first- and second-tier stars, but the quality is superior!
Hundreds of third- to eighteenth-tier starlets together, the number of fans is well over [-] million!
The topic of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" exploded immediately!
Li Yu also reached the top of Weibo's hot search for the second time!

With the influx of celebrity fans, the opinions of female compatriots were completely submerged, and Li Yu's meager comment area directly became a battlefield for celebrity fans...

There are only a dozen or twenty roles in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but there are hundreds of stars who want to participate.

There are several or even dozens of stars competing for each role. When stars compete for the role, fans will naturally wave their flags and cheer. Li Yu's meager comment that it is a battlefield is not an exaggeration at all.

Everything was within Li Yu's expectation.

For the shocking news on Weibo, Li Yu didn't even bother to look at it.

He has already seen through some things now, even if there is a riot on the Internet, as long as you treat them as a fart, they are not a fart...

However, it is impossible for Li Yu to completely calm down.

When promoting "Huaxia Partners" before, Li Yu was added to WeChat by many unscrupulous female stars. At that time, Li Yu had no projects in hand, only a few [-]th-line wild stars who were not doing well wanted to find Li Yu Talk about the script.

This time it's completely different!

A big production with an investment of hundreds of millions, with dozens of female characters hanging in the air, Li Yu is now definitely a living monk in the eyes of female stars in the entertainment industry!

To put it bluntly, as long as he is willing to give a role, he can turn over a hundred cards tonight...

It's a pity that Li Yu is somewhat of a clean freak and doesn't like being a bus.

He didn't reply to all kinds of chatting WeChat messages, he just sent a circle of friends: Interested celebrity friends can sign up on Weibo, and a staff member will contact the audition later.

Compared with discussing the script with the female star all night, he prefers the fans behind the female star...

Li Yu's coquettish operation stunned half of the entertainment circle.

Even the bosses of the film and television companies were shocked.

Nima, can you still play like this?

The bosses of many film and television companies have already made up their minds that they should learn from Li Yu next time they cast a movie or TV show.

What the hell, it saved at least 1000 million publicity fees!
Unlike those film and television companies that eat melons, Tangren Film and Television and Nanhu TV have also exploded internally because of Li Yu's coquettish operations.

By coincidence, these two companies are also preparing for large-scale costume dramas.

Sugarman's project is called "Startling Every Step", and Nanhu TV Station is called "Gong Suo Xin Yu". The investment of these two dramas is more than 5000 million.

The market capacity is so big, there are two Gongdou TV dramas that are already very crowded, and now a "Zhen Huan Biography" suddenly pops up, this is the rhythm of death...

What made them even more irritated was that their TV series was still in preparation, but Li Yu had already launched a vigorous promotion first.

sugar man film and television
Boss Cai, who still has a charming face, is looking at the group of executives with an ugly expression.

"Let's talk about it, what are we going to do now?"

"Scary Step by Step" is a project led by Boss Cai himself, with the purpose of praising his own female star Liu Shishi. In this situation, no one knows what Boss Cai thinks.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to be the first to speak.

Boss Cai is not surprised to see that everyone is silent, she is a strong woman, and the company is her word, and she just asked casually just now.

After pondering for a moment, Boss Cai put forward his own idea.

"Can we, like that Li Yu, openly recruit actor roles on Weibo?"

"Well, I'm afraid it won't work. Most of our roles are predetermined, and everyone in the circle knows..." A vice president of the company spoke.

Boss Cai shook his head when he heard the words. Li Yu's path is obviously not suitable for sugar people. If she really does this, the reputation of sugar people in the circle will be rotten.

"The ratings..."

Well, Boss Cai stopped talking halfway through.

Li Yu directly bet [-] million on ratings, does Boss Cai dare to play like this?
Hey!
There are two roads ahead, but I can't walk either road, Boss Cai's heart is full of anger!
I can't do it anymore, I need to find a little fresh meat to vent my fire tonight...

There is no way to imitate Li Yu's hype method, but if nothing is done, Boss Cai will not be reconciled.

After much deliberation, she can only use the most traditional method to compete with Li Yu for a wave of traffic.

Just half an hour later, Sugar Man's official Weibo published a message.

"Sugarman Film and Television intends to invest 1 million yuan to shoot a blockbuster costume movie "Scary Step by Step", starring Liu Shishi."

Then the stars of the sugar man series began to attract fans to help out.

Immediately afterwards, the No. [-] position on Weibo's hot search list became "Liu Shishi starring in "Scary Step By Step"".

Don't ask why you can climb to the first place even though there is no hype. Asking is questioning Grandpa Mao's ability!

The sugar man's action had just ended, and Nanhu TV station was not willing to let others go. It immediately announced that it would invest 1 million yuan to shoot a large-scale time-travel drama "Gongsuo Xinyu", starring Yang Dami.

In one day, three "[-] million" costume dramas were released, directly detonating the entertainment circle, and the meager has completely turned upside down. The top three most searched lists are all news about three TV dramas...

The so-called scale effect refers to the current situation.

The two companies followed up the publicity. Although they took part of the attention from "The Legend of Zhen Huan", due to the increase in the overall popularity, more people paid attention to "The Legend of Zhen Huan"!

As the saying goes, there is no harm if there is no comparison. Except for the fans of Liu Shishi and Yang Dami, everyone else has watched the "flat and unremarkable" promotional content of "Scary Step by Step" and "Gong Suo Xin Yu", and then read "Zhen Huan Biography" Boss The majestic "1 million red envelope" immediately knew how to stand in line...

Li Yu's meager comments were filled with joy.

"President Li is still domineering! Losing money if the ratings are not enough, this is a conscientious company!"

"President Li is mighty!"

"Although I am a pure man, I must support Mr. Li this time!"

"Favorites, starting tonight "The Legend of Zhen Huan"!"

"It's so tangled! I hope "The Legend of Zhen Huan" can be filmed well and I can see a good TV series, but I also hope that the ratings are not so good, and I want to earn some pocket money from President Li..."

"There are really people upstairs, I feel the same way, hahaha..."

In contrast, the meager reviews of the other two TV dramas were not so harmonious. Numerous netizens @两公司官方微微 made them spend 1 million to bet on the ratings just like Li Yu.

However, to no avail.

Whether it's Sugarman Films or Nanhu TV, no one dares to bet with 1 million, they can only pretend not to see it...

The eyes of the masses are discerning. The actions of these two companies directly pushed many neutral netizens to Li Yu's side.

Li Yu didn't pay too much attention to the continuous fermenting of public opinion on the Internet. In the evening, he was having an in-depth discussion on the true meaning of life with the young woman Su Linmei.

As the saying goes, people do it at home, and the opponent sends warmth.

Li Yu lay down again and harvested a wave of user traffic...
