Chapter 124 Is there such a good thing?



The revenue from exclusive website broadcasts and all-platform revenues have been mentioned before. For Lu Ban, since the performance of Hammer and others has told him that this film has some kind of extraordinary power, he doesn't have to worry about whether the film will flop or not.

Just upload it and it's done.

Therefore, Lu Ban chose to play it on all platforms.

These long video websites all adopt a combination of membership-based broadcasting and single purchase, that is, paying members can watch these movies for free, a few movies require additional payment, and non-members can only watch them with payment.

Therefore, the effective click volume, that is, the number of viewers who watch after six minutes, is an important factor in determining Lu Ban’s revenue.

As soon as Lu Ban opened the website backend and added the WeChat number responsible for operations in this area, he heard the prompt sound.

[Mahua]: Are you the [Yidongdong] from the old video website?

【Motionless】: It’s me.

Lu Ban exchanged a few simple words and told the other party his thoughts.

[Mahua]: Are these online movies available on all platforms? Actually, I suggest that you sign an exclusive broadcasting agreement. Because if it’s available on all platforms, it will just be included in our movie library, and the audience will have to search accurately or rely on smart recommendations if they want to watch it. But if it’s available exclusively, our website will have corresponding promotional cooperation.

The operator advised so.

Although he has not watched Lu Ban's videos, considering that every video of his is very popular, he is naturally the target of video websites.

Now, Lu Ban even came to Aishouyi Video Network to submit his work himself, which means that he may have a conflict with the Jiuri Video Network!

After all, if this movie becomes a hit, the traffic brought by all platforms and exclusive broadcasts will be incomparable.

[Stand still]: This is not necessary. I think the audience of each video website is different, and the full platform can allow more people to see it.

[Mahua]: Do you intend to sign a guaranteed exclusive broadcast agreement, that is, we will give you a guaranteed price, and the excess will be settled according to the profit sharing?

The operation was relentless and even offered a minimum guarantee agreement.

The so-called minimum guarantee is actually similar to a gambling agreement. The video website will pay Lu Ban a certain amount of money directly. No matter how many clicks his movie finally gets, the money will go into his pocket.

And if the movie flopped and the revenue from effective clicks could not exceed the prepaid money, then Lu Ban’s income would end there.

If the movie becomes a big hit, the excess portion will be settled to Lu Ban according to the normal number of clicks.

There are not many producers who can get this kind of agreement. After all, for online dramas and online movies, the success or failure is just a matter of thought. Unless they are endorsed by famous artists or have launched many excellent works, video websites will not easily give out a minimum guarantee agreement.

[Unmoved]: There is such a good thing. How much money can you guarantee to give?

Lu Ban thought about it and decided that if the other party could guarantee a minimum of one million, then it wouldn’t matter whether he broadcast it exclusively or not.

"Hmm? Now that I think about it, I can just ask Ms. Song to buy my movie for one million!"

Lu Ban realized it later.

But based on the idea that one cannot always fleece the same sheep, no, one cannot always trouble Song Yunyan, Lu Ban decided to be self-reliant.

Besides, he also wanted more people to see this movie so that more people would remember Hongye.

This can also be considered a little comfort to this witch who is trying to be the guardian of ordinary people.

"If it really doesn't work, if the final box office is not enough, I will ask Ms. Song to make up for it!"

Lu Ban felt that he was not destined to fall to this point.

While I was thinking, the other party's operation team replied.

[Mahua]: Our minimum guarantee is generally based on the quality of the finished film, and most of the time it is between 200,000 and 300,000.

The cost of making online movies is very low. Those that exceed one million are considered big productions. The guaranteed price of two or three hundred thousand can basically recover most of the costs. In the words of the operator himself, it is no different from doing charity.

[Yidongdong]: What kind of quality is required for the one million guarantee?

On the other side of the computer, the operations classmate was stunned for a moment when he saw this sentence.

"One million guaranteed? Are you trying to dissuade me from doing this?"

You have to know that the most popular online movie last year had a revenue share of about 20 million yuan, and that was a spin-off series starring big IPs and regular movie actors. Although each of Lu Ban's videos has a high number of hits, and the highest interactive video has exceeded 10 million, those are all short videos, which are still different from movies.

There have been cases in the past where a series of videos uploaded online had a high number of hits and were widely praised, but when they were made into movies, they were criticized for being poor.

The most important thing is that if this kind of guarantee is offered, the relevant person in charge will be responsible for the costs. If Lu Ban's movie flopped and didn't make that much money, he would be in trouble in the final year-end accounting.

[Mahua]: Well, if the quality is acceptable, we can negotiate.

He decided to stabilize Lu Ban first.

[Moving Still]: Forget it, I'd rather focus on all platforms. I'm confident in the quality of my work.

Lu Ban felt that the other party might not really want to give him the one million for free. Besides, why would he be so entangled about one million when he had experienced life and death in a foreign land, witnessed the coming of the evil god, burned an entire island, and even had grass growing on his body?

One million is just a down payment in Jiangcheng, and you still have to repay the loan!

It would take at least 10 million to make him feel troubled.

"Now that I have 10 million, can I move to a new villa? The one I lived in last time was pretty good, and it was secluded, but the area around it was too desolate. It would be better to live near a university. Otherwise, I could just buy the one I live in now, and save myself the trouble of moving. I am worthy of this!"

Lu Ban has already started to study how to spend the 10 million he has obtained.

He spent an entire afternoon contacting the operators of several video websites, and finally chose to broadcast it on all platforms and finalized the launch time.

According to the sharing price, he can earn 1.5 yuan for each effective click, which means that he can complete the task with more than 600,000 effective playbacks.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lu Ban’s movie "Hyakunin Isshu" was quietly released online.

As expected, neither iShouyi Video Network nor Scarecrow Video Network did much publicity, with only trailers for new films coming out. Tomorrow Online mainly features short videos, and the movie section is deserted.

Only on Jiuri Video Network, because it was Lu Ban’s main battlefield, did he receive an immediate response after he posted the update.

[Wow, this time it’s directly in the movie? ]

[Is my ancestral membership finally useful?]

[This is so long, my conscience! ]

[I read the introduction. What? There is a woman in UP’s video. And she is not a monster. My youth is over! ]

[Yeah, it’s a movie, and it’s a big production this time! ]

[Can this one-click triple-link update the next issue within a week? 】

[It’s decided, today’s meal video is this one! 】

Looking at these comments, Lu Ban picked up the mooncakes he bought from the cake shop outside the community.

Today is a beautiful day with a full moon and a family reunion. It is indeed a good day to watch a movie together.
