Although Ye Qing was also anxious about discussing cooperation, he also knew that it was not something that could be accomplished overnight. Therefore, Ye Qing's mindset was similar to that when he was discussing cooperation with Nancheng University.
I'm prepared to talk to them several times.
Because she felt that everything had been agreed upon, Ye Qing planned to return to her studio after leaving the film crew. Although she and Ye Shuang had come together, they had agreed beforehand that Ye Shuang would have something to do later and Ye Qing would go back by herself.
So after leaving the film set, Ye Qing stood by the roadside, ready to hail a taxi, but Ye Shuang, who was about to leave, called out to Ye Qing: "Let me take you home."
Somewhat surprised, Ye Qing turned to look at Ye Shuang and asked, "Didn't you have something to do?"
"Yes, but it's nothing urgent. I'll just let them know. Let's go." As Ye Shuang spoke to Ye Qing, she took out her phone and paged the other party, saying that she would be a little later than the agreed time.
Ye Qing wasn't opposed to someone giving her a gift. After all, it was Ye Shuang's business, and since she wasn't in a hurry, Ye Qing naturally wouldn't be either. She was just a little puzzled by Ye Shuang's attitude.
Although puzzled, Ye Qing knew that since Ye Shuang had taken the initiative to talk to him, she must have something to say about it, so Ye Qing didn't ask and got into Ye Shuang's car with her.
Ye Shuang had questions for Ye Qing, so she didn't hold back and asked Ye Qing directly after getting in the car: "You just told the crew that you didn't want them to rent clothes from your studio for free, and you even put your own money into it. Aren't you afraid of losing money later?"
Upon hearing Ye Shuang's question, Ye Qing realized why. He recalled that when he was talking to the producer earlier, Ye Shuang seemed to have never understood his thoughts.
It's normal to ask now. Ye Qing didn't hesitate to hide her thoughts. Actually, it wasn't a big deal. She asked Ye Shuang, "This is essentially an advertisement. Although I said I might have to spend money on it, it won't be a huge amount. Even if it were a huge amount, compared to advertising on TV, this is still more cost-effective."
Moreover, what I said about possibly having to pay out of pocket is just a possibility. Maybe in the end I won't have to pay anything at all, in which case I'll have bought a prime advertising spot without spending a single penny.
Ye Shuang could understand what Ye Qing was saying, but what Ye Shuang was thinking was: "What you're saying are all scenarios where the TV series becomes popular. What if it doesn't?"
"Then why did you let your models act in this TV series? According to you, there's a possibility that this show won't be a hit." Ye Qing didn't answer Ye Shuang's question at the moment, but instead asked Ye Shuang a similar question first.
Ye Shuang paused for a moment and said, "That's different."
"How come it's different?" Ye Qing asked.
"I let models act because a model's career is actually very short. Many of them have no income when they don't have runway work. Acting can bring them a continuous income, and if they really succeed in transitioning to acting, then acting can be a lifelong career."
Ye Shuang said a lot, and Ye Qing agreed with everything. However, what the acting profession is like is not what Ye Qing and Ye Shuang are discussing right now. She summarized the key points of Ye Shuang's words: "So, in other words, you're letting the models you've signed participate in this drama just for the money, right?"
"You could say that."
Ye Qing smiled slightly: "It's the same principle, I'm also doing it for money."
Seeing that Ye Shuang was about to object, Ye Qing spoke up again, telling her all her thoughts before Ye Shuang could speak: "If the production team agrees to use my brand for all the costumes, it will be like giving us an advertisement when the TV series airs. And I hardly spent any money. Just like I asked you earlier, even if I buy advertising space in newspapers or on TV, it will cost money."
Regarding the issue you mentioned about the TV series not being popular, regardless of whether the TV series is popular or not, the clothes are returned to our studio after filming is completed. The tags and other accessories are still on, so they can be resold.
So actually I didn't lose anything.
Besides, this is the worst-case scenario. If the TV series becomes a huge hit, the advertising effect on our brand will be enormous, and the benefits to our brand will naturally be huge as well.
Everything has two sides, and my current choice is actually quite clever. After all, even if I were to find a TV program sponsorship, I would still have to pay for it. But if I plan things out well now, maybe I won't have to spend any money on it.
To put it bluntly, Aoba Studio is now powerful enough to afford the costs you just mentioned, even if it means losing money.
Furthermore, business involves both gains and losses; consistently making money doesn't align with the natural order of things.
After Ye Qing finished speaking, he looked at Ye Shuang and saw that she had taken everything he said to heart, so he didn't continue. He had answered Ye Shuang's question, and that was enough. If he said anything more, it would seem like he was showing off and would just be annoying.
For Ye Shuang, she not only listened attentively, but also felt that a single conversation with a wise man was worth more than ten years of study.
In the past, when she and Ye Qing didn't get along, it was mostly because she was jealous of Ye Qing, knowing that Ye Qing was actually much better than her.
Ye Shuang has matured a lot now and no longer has the petty thoughts she used to have. She can now accept Ye Qing's excellence.
At the same time, Ye Shuang also tried her best to become more outstanding. However, just when she thought she was already very good, she found that Ye Qing was actually more good than her.
In the past, Ye Shuang would never have been able to accept the fact that Ye Qing was more capable than her, but now she wouldn't be so petty.
They chatted as they arrived at Ye Qing's studio. Ye Shuang parked the car, and as Ye Qing was about to get out, Ye Shuang couldn't help but say, "Ye Qing, you're really amazing."
Ye Qing smiled and said, "You will become even more amazing."
Back in the studio, Ye Qing thought about it for a while. Although the production team hadn't given a definite answer yet, Ye Qing felt that his chances of winning were still quite high.
Because according to his own plan, the production team doesn't need to give him money. Although the director and screenwriter may not want to change the script, the producer should agree with his ideas in terms of cost control.
Moreover, according to Ye Qing's plan, the script didn't actually need to be changed at all. During filming, she would tell the actors that whenever the original brand name was needed, they should just say "Qingye".
So after a brief consideration, Ye Qing felt it would be better to talk to her colleagues at the studio.
So Ye Qing held a short meeting with everyone.
Ye Qing originally thought that was the end of it, since it was a good thing for the studio. However, during the meeting, someone gave other suggestions.
