Chapter 39 Return on Investment
When Xu Youyou heard that the daily turnover was tens of millions, she immediately praised: "You all did a great job. I am not surprised at all that you can achieve such results."
Ouyang Ouyang on the other end of the phone blushed when he heard the boss's praise, but unfortunately he was not good at socializing, so he could only say dryly: "Thank you for your trust, boss..."
Xu Youyou is now also learning how to be a good boss. She thought for a moment and said, "Ouyang, I always believe in your abilities. You also have to believe in yourself."
Ouyang Ouyang nodded frantically on the other end of the phone. After he finished nodding, he remembered that Xu Youyou couldn't see him, and immediately said, "Boss, don't worry. If you are willing to give me this opportunity, I will never doubt myself again."
Xu Youyou asked again: "The daily turnover is tens of millions, how much can we get?"
There are many types of cooperation models between short dramas and platforms. They use the full-investment model, that is, Xu Youyou is responsible for the script and production, and can get about 6%-10% of the revenue after it is broadcast on the video platform.
Ouyang Ouyang said: "Boss, I compared several platforms at the beginning and chose the one with the highest rebate. The rebate they gave was 10%."
When Xu Youyou invested in this short drama, she paid two million yuan, but the cost of the short drama was low, and Ouyang Ouyang spent all his money, so he only spent five hundred thousand yuan.
Ouyang Ouyang and Song Zhibai's salary was calculated separately, both were 100,000 each.
So the total cost of this short play was only 700,000 yuan. Now the short play has paid back and even made some profit.
"Ask your brothers if they are willing to sign long-term contracts with the company. You are the only director in the company now, just like a lone commander. You have a good relationship with each other, so you can form a team, which will make it convenient to do things in the future." Xu Youyou said.
Ouyang Ouyang was even more moved when he heard this. The boss was not afraid of him forming cliques and was willing to let him recruit his own people. He really wanted to work for Xu Youyou for the rest of his life! "They are willing! The employment environment has been bad in the past two years. They have found jobs before they graduated from college, directly ahead of others. They are all willing to work with the boss!" said Ouyang Ouyang.
Although Xu Youyou was not sure whether the team Ouyang Ouyang was leading now was the same team as in his previous life, the core figure of the team was actually Ouyang Ouyang. As long as she could coax him well, there would definitely be a steady stream of money flowing into her in the future.
"Okay, I'll send you a big red envelope after we settle the payment on the platform." Xu Youyou promised.
When Ouyang Ouyang heard that he was going to give out money, he was so happy that his teeth almost popped out.
Xu Youyou asked again: "What do you think of the TV series script? If it's almost done, we can start the project."
In addition to keeping an eye on the short drama being released online, Ouyang Ouyang has been spending almost all his time on the TV drama script that Xu Youyou gave him before she went abroad.
"Boss, will Brother Song still be the lead actor?" Ouyang Ouyang asked.
Xu Youyou frowned slightly. She didn't like the current trend in the entertainment industry, where young popular actors and actresses were praised and everyone was called "teacher" or "brother or sister".
"The director is the core of the crew, and Song Zhibai has to listen to you. Just call him Xiao Song." Xu Youyou said.
Ouyang Ouyang felt very comfortable that his boss valued him. He had been worried that Song Zhibai was his boss's mistress and would take advantage of him sooner or later. After hearing this, he finally felt relieved. At least Xu Youyou still valued the director more.
After Xu Youyou hung up the phone with him, she called Song Zhibai again, told him about the performance of the skit, and praised him several times.
"The success of the short play is inseparable from Ouyang Ouyang's control and your wonderful performance. I said at the time that you would definitely be able to play this role well, and you really didn't disappoint me... The TV series will start filming soon. Tomorrow I will arrange an acting teacher for you, and I guarantee that you will become a hit!"
After Xu Youyou finished drawing the pie, she put away her phone and lay down on the bed.
Before falling asleep, she was thinking vaguely: Being a boss is so hard.
After Xu Youyou slept for ten hours, the jet lag was completely reversed and she felt fully revived.
Since the system did not refresh the task of picking up bargains, she put together the bargains at home that had not yet been rewarded.
"Be quiet and sit up straight!" Xu Youyou said obediently to the puppy.
He looked at her obediently, then slowly lowered himself to the ground as if in defiance.
Xu Youyou was so angry that she hugged Guaiguai in her arms and rubbed its shiny fur hard.
Guaiguai barked helplessly at Xu Youyou: "Woof woof! Bad poop scooper! You messed up my fur!"
Xu Youyou tilted her head and asked, "My dear, are you particularly valuable? Was your previous owner the richest man?"
Xu Youyou could only think of this one reason, otherwise she didn't understand why an ordinary little dog could be considered a bargain by the system.
Xu Youyou actually asked Guaiguai many times, but the puppy’s brain was so small that Guaiguai simply couldn’t tell who his previous owner was. In fact, because he had been with Xu Youyou for too long, he had become very dependent on Xu Youyou and rarely mentioned his old owner.
Guaiguai: "Woof woof, are you going to send me back?"
Xu Youyou shook her head: "Even if you are the richest man in the world, I can't give you back. You are my dog now, right?"
The puppy barked, then raised its head obediently and let Xu Youyou scratch its neck.
Xu Youyou held the puppy and looked at the other two.
One was a stone sculpture that was shipped back from the United States at a huge expense, and the other was a jade pendant obtained at an auction.
Xu Youyou thought about it over and over again but still couldn't figure it out, so she simply decided to cheat.
"Is Tongbao here? Is Tongbao here?"
【I am here.】
"Good boy, give me some hints." Xu Youyou said shamelessly.
After a long time, the system finally spoke again.
【The jade pendant should be worn close to the body, and the stone carving can be untied. 】
Xu Youyou's eyes suddenly lit up, stone cutting!
She felt that her brain was too rigid and she never thought of cutting the stone.
Xu Youyou originally wanted to go out and find a stone-crushing machine, but then she changed her mind and realized that the system would never be stingy every time it made a move. Money is attractive, and if some top-quality jade material was really found, she might not be able to keep it by herself.
The two bodyguards who had accompanied her abroad before were both veterans. They were still trying to protect her when facing a gunfight in the United States. She felt they were trustworthy and called them on the spot without any hesitation.
"If you are willing, after you leave the company, you will only be responsible for protecting me, with a monthly salary of 100,000. How about it?" Xu Youyou asked.
Previously, Xu Youyou hired two people through a security company. Instead of letting the security company take a commission, it would be better to give the money directly to the bodyguards.
On the other end of the phone, Xu Youyou only heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, as if someone had fallen off a chair. After a moment, a voice came: "Boss, I'm submitting my resignation report now and will try to get to work today."
