Chapter 10: A single episode has been viewed over [-] million times
After arriving at the iQiyi headquarters and explaining his purpose, Wang Kun was led to the reception room.

iQI is seeking to go public, and now is the time to be hungry for movies.

The entire company is united and wants to give the investment market a perfect answer on the eve of its listing.

After all, once the company goes public, I don’t know whether the workers at the bottom will make a profit, but the middle and senior management will definitely make a lot of money if they hold the shares.

So even if it treats a new director like Wang Kun, iQiyi pays enough attention to it.

The person who received Wang Kun was a vice president of iQiyi, surnamed Gong.

Cinema room.

The first episode of "Toffee's Promotion" is playing.

"It's interesting. The subject of men wearing women is quite niche." When the video showed men wearing women, Vice President Gong became interested.

Niche means going against the mainstream, but it also means that homogeneity is not serious.

I am tired of watching the same TV series. If there is such a novel and eye-catching TV series, if it is done well, it may not be able to become a small hit.

"It's just that this kind of obedience is a bit hard to put into words." Vice President Gong, who had read countless films, twitched his lips when he saw the extremely crude obedience in the play.

Three episodes of the TV series have been played.

Vice President Gong had a thoughtful look in his eyes. Although Fu Hua Dao was a bit eye-catching, the flaws did not hide the good points. This was a TV series that was above the standard.

"How about 15 yuan per episode, plus a certain advertising share?"

There is sincerity, but not much.

After all, the advertising split is too opaque, and the broadcast platform has the final say on how much it will be split into.

If you meet a conscientious person, I will give you three more melons and two more dates.

If you meet someone with no conscience, you can only stare at them.

But this show is a buyer’s market.

Wang Kun is on the weaker side and has no qualifications to negotiate terms with Aiqi.

"can."

Wang Kun agreed, and he couldn't become fat after eating it all at once.

For a new director, the conditions of 15 yuan per episode, plus a certain advertising share are already very good.

Besides, dealing with Aiqi will be inevitable in the future.

Then we can just recover today's losses from other projects.

Seeing that Wang Kun agreed, Vice President Gong also felt close to Wang Kun, "Okay, let's sign the contract first."

iQiyi acted quickly. Three days after signing the contract, the purchase fee of 540 million was credited to Wang Kun's studio account.

iQiyi also informed Wang Kun that the story of the promotion of the concubine will be launched at noon tomorrow.

"Huh, we have finally taken the most difficult step. The next step will be to see the results of this drama."

Wang Kun exhaled a sigh of relief, feeling a little nervous in his heart.

Although the drama "Toffee's Promotion" has been tested by the market in Wang Kun's previous life and achieved dazzling results, Wang Kun is still a little unsure.

After all, no matter how similar this world is to the world in the previous life, it is not the same world after all.

"Now that the matter has come to this, it's useless for me to worry. Even if the concubine's promotion is not acclimatized, so what if she fails to cause a splash?

With a systematic backing, success is inevitable.

It is nothing more than a matter of time and wealth.

On the contrary, every failure is the most valuable experience in my life. "Wang Kun calmed down, and his whole person had a confident temperament.

At noon the next day, without much publicity and promotion, the story of Princess Taoist Promotion was quietly launched online.

It is under such circumstances that the single episode of "Toffee's Promotion" has been viewed more than [-] million times!

Vice President Gong was stunned when he saw the data the next day!
No, how can a drama like yours, with a total investment of 500 million, a new director, a few [-]th-tier young actors, and no publicity, achieve such results? !
Vice President Gong didn’t understand, but was shocked!

"Quickly, quickly, arrange the homepage for the princess's promotion!"

Vice President Gong urged the staff, and the number of views for a single episode on the first day exceeded [-] million. This was without much publicity. If sufficient resources were given, it would be amazing!
Vice President Gong smiled like a fat man weighing two hundred pounds.

This is a huge amount of money, a mere 540 million, plus a certain share of advertising. What’s the difference between this and picking up a hit drama for free?
Vice President Gong also didn't forget to call Wang Kun to announce the good news, "Hahaha, Director Wang, congratulations, the concubine has been promoted!"

"Happy together."

Aiqi gained money, Wang Kun gained fame, and everyone got what they needed.

"Director Wang, if you have any good projects in the future, don't forget us."

Vice President Gong's call to announce the good news was just incidental. The real reason was that he wanted to have a good relationship with Wang Kun, a new director.

That's right, with the results of Princess Toffee's promotion record, in the eyes of Vice President Gong, she is no longer a new director, but a cutting-edge director!

After Wang Kun heard what Vice President Gong said, he understood!
People are stupid and money comes quickly!

Since you have said so, I won’t be polite!

Wang Kun pretended to be surprised and said, "Hey, how does Vice President Gong know that I still have good projects in hand?"

Vice President Gong perked up. I just wanted to be polite and build a good relationship first. Do you really have it?
"Director Wang, are you coming? I'll come find you and let's talk in person!"

Capital pursues profits. Before today, who knew who Wang Kun was?

But after the story of the concubine's promotion became popular, Wang Kun became the sweet potato in the eyes of Vice President Gong.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Kun sent Vice President Gong the location of the studio.

Then he opened the drawer in front of the office and looked at a pile of thick scripts. Wang Kun was confused.

Wang Kun mused, "Although Taifei's Promotion is becoming popular, if the budget of the new project is too high, iQiyi may not participate in the investment."

Wang Kun is currently directing a small-budget TV series with an investment of 500 million, and suddenly he plans to shoot a large-scale production with an investment of [-] to [-] million. Do you think capital is a fool?

As for switching to filmmaking, that's even more unrealistic.

You are a TV drama director who goes to make movies, but iQiyi’s senior management will only participate in investment after their brains have been kicked by donkeys.

"It's you!"

Wang Kun pulled out a script. On the cover of the script, the two characters "The Beginning" were written in black and white.

First of all, the performance of this drama is good enough. Secondly, the shooting cycle is short and the investment cost is low.

An investment of one to two billion is too much, and iQiyi will not participate.

For 5000 to [-] million, Aiqi may participate in the investment, but Wang Kun is not willing.

There is no way, Wang Kun only has more than 500 million in his hands, and the subsequent advertising share of the promotion record will not be settled for a while.

It’s just over 500 million yuan, which is too low a proportion of the total investment of 5000 to [-] million yuan, and it has no say.

In this way, wouldn’t it mean that she has worked so hard to make a wedding dress for Aiqi?

The main shooting scene at the beginning was on the bus in the studio. The total investment was 2000 million, and Wang Kun invested 500 million. In addition, he is also the screenwriter, director, composer, and post-production. The proportion of [-]% is not excessive, right?

As for whether Aiqiyi would agree to it, Wang Kun didn't care.
