260: Hua Hu comes to poach Xu Yao
Li Lanyi tried to speak but almost choked on the water.
"I didn't say—"
Xu Yao glanced over. Despite her delicate appearance, she already possessed the dominance of a boss. "Needless to say, whether we're celebrities or internet influencers, we're all cash cows that make money for the capital. Now there's an opportunity to turn things around and become a capitalist. Are you going to refuse?"
Li Lanyi thought to herself, is Xu Yao too naive to think that she can turn her life around and become a capital with this short play?
But if it really is an opportunity, you will definitely regret it if you don't seize it.
Li Lanyi swallowed her saliva in a very unpresentable manner: "Is the investment huge?"
Xu Yao glanced at Tiancheng.
Tian Cheng was clearly a few years older than Xu Yao, but Xu Yao looked at her like she was answering a teacher's question. "The way to play with a small investment is to shoot a short drama first to test the waters. If the feedback is good, then shoot another one. After all, the shooting and production cycle of short dramas is very short. You can know whether it is profitable in half a month or a month. The way to play with a large investment is to roll out multiple projects at the same time, with different themes and scripts, and launch them to the market at the same time. This way, you can test out what the market likes at once. At the same time, this rapid rollout method can capture the market in one fell swoop, making money before others can react. Even if someone wants to imitate us, we are already the largest and most experienced supplier of short dramas."
Xu Yao was not wrong, Tiancheng was indeed an ambitious person.
Screenwriters don't hold a high position in the industry. Only famous screenwriters can guarantee that their work won't be altered. Ordinary screenwriters have to adapt scripts to meet the demands of investors and celebrities. Not only can good works be altered beyond recognition, but they can also be criticized by audiences for being ugly after being filmed!
Tiancheng has been holding back for a long time, and now that he has caught the opportunity, he doesn't want to let go.
Therefore, when introducing Tiancheng to Li Lanyi, it was obvious that Tiancheng preferred large investments. If it was just a small investment, Tiancheng would not even need to cooperate with Xu Yao.
Tiancheng can write the script, she has been on the set, and any number of students from acting schools can act in it. After the production is complete, Tiancheng can also afford the investment and promotion costs of over seven figures - only a large-scale investment method with multiple fronts would require Xu Yao and the others to be brought in!
Li Lanyi has known Tiancheng for many years, and it is rare to see Tiancheng so excited.
Xu Yao is an outsider, but Tiancheng is not.
Tiancheng said this was a promising project, and Li Lanyi immediately felt itchy: "There are four of us sharing the costs. Even if the investment is large, how big can it be? Count me in. It would be nice to earn some pocket money!"
Last time, Xu Yao asked Li Lanyi if she wanted to promote the products, but Li Lanyi refused because she was afraid of being caught between a rock and a hard place.
Li Lanyi didn't have to personally invest in the short play, she just had to pay the money, so she had no reason to refuse.
There is no need to talk about Tangtang. Xu Yao is not the kind of person who gets arrogant after making a little money. Since Xu Yao thinks it is okay to invest money, then this business can be done.
Tangtang hasn’t been promoting any products recently. As she is about to become a mother, she always wants to save more for her child.
"I listen to everyone."
After Tangtang expressed her opinion, the matter was basically settled. Tiancheng had a lot of ideas to shoot, and also said that if her team's output speed was too slow, they could buy the copyright of the online novel.
"The copyright fee for this kind of short drama is not too expensive, and you can get one for tens of thousands of yuan."
Xu Yao nodded. "It's up to you. If it's cheap, we'll stockpile more copyrights. Before anyone else comes along, we'll screen the books that are suitable for adaptation into short plays."
Sweet Orange nodded heavily.
Li Lanyi and Tangtang also joined the discussion, and they decided to form a company to produce and produce short dramas. They quickly even agreed on the investment ratio. Tiancheng was the primary person in charge, and since they had invested the same amount, she should have a larger stake. Xu Yao and the other two were all happy with this.
Xu Yao is strong when she needs to be strong, and generous when she needs to delegate power, without being petty.
After talking about it, Tiancheng smiled and said: "This is the happiest negotiation I have ever had. I have a feeling that our cooperation will be very pleasant."
After talking about the collaboration on paid short dramas, we talked about Xu Yao’s earthy short drama on Orca.
"Here are the scripts for the latest 15 episodes."
"Sweet Orange, can you join the group tomorrow?"
"able."
"Okay, let's shoot tomorrow."
Everyone was going to start a company together, and Xu Yao no longer called Tiancheng Teacher. After the four of them finished talking about business, they had a meal together. When they parted, all four of them were in high spirits.
Tiancheng did not rest after returning home. She revised the scripts of the latest 15 episodes of the earthy short drama overnight. She did not fall asleep until three in the morning and was woken up by the alarm clock after six in the morning.
Xu Yao is about to start filming at nine o'clock this morning, and Tiancheng has to rush to the scene.
On the way, Tiancheng received a call from someone who claimed to be from Huahu.
"Teacher Tiancheng, we want to talk to you about collaborating on a skit."
Huahu wants to invest in Tiancheng. Huahu will be responsible for the funds, and Tiancheng will be responsible for producing the short dramas. The finished short dramas will be supplied to Huahu first, and everyone will share the profits.
With such favorable conditions, Tiancheng hardly has to bear any risks. She can shoot any short drama she wants, and Huahu will not interfere!
Sweet orange accident.
Tiancheng did not publicize the short play script she helped Xu Yao write. She had ambitions in this area and wanted to make a fortune quietly from the beginning.
Xu Yao was the beneficiary and would not tell anyone about it.
I didn't expect Huahu to come so quickly and be so sharp. No wonder this rising star was able to outperform Orca and Grapefruit. Collaborating with Huahu would be even better. Xu Yao and the others only have connections with the platform, while Huahu itself is the largest platform... If Tiancheng hadn't agreed to the partnership with Xu Yao and the others yesterday, she would have agreed immediately. Now, Tiancheng can only reluctantly refuse.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept this kind of cooperation. If Huahu is interested in the short play, we can cooperate in other ways."
"Teacher Tiancheng, please think about it again."
When short dramas become popular, the production platforms will buy traffic.
Huahu is now looking for Tiancheng, which is equivalent to bringing Tiancheng into the scope of "insiders". Huahu will of course give priority to the short dramas invested by itself. Tiancheng just needs to concentrate on writing and filming the dramas and wait for the profit. You will definitely regret it later if you miss this opportunity.
In fact, no matter what Tiancheng chooses, she will not be out of the game. The company she and Xu Yao have established has not been officially established, so it is still not too late to regret.
However, Tiancheng still refused.
After hanging up the call from Huahu, Tiancheng also arrived at the shooting site.
Xu Yao and the filming crew arrived. Tian Cheng pushed up her glasses and walked over quickly. "Xu Yao, there's something I need to tell you. The short drama company needs to move forward quickly. Some investors have already noticed this field. I received a call from Huahu..."
Tiancheng explained the matter briefly, and Xu Yao suddenly realized: This is what Jiang Zhiyan meant by "Win the first battle, pay attention to defending the title"?
Since Jiang Zhiyan sent a message to remind Tangtang, it was definitely not Jiang Zhiyan's intention to enter the short drama industry.
——Is it Gu Jun? !
Xu Yao was distracted for a moment: "I understand, let's start filming! The short drama company's affairs will proceed simultaneously."
